Chapter 621: Relics of the Ancestors
Under the strong wind, yellow sand was everywhere.
A cultivator stood quietly on the sand plain, his figure was like a pine tree, unmoved by the strong wind. He closed his eyes tightly and put his hands together, as if he was communicating with the violent power of the world in some mysterious way.
"To feel the power of the world under such circumstances, he must be a ruthless person." Under the cover of the strong wind, Yao Yuntao, who was beside Li Qianqing, saw this scene and couldn't help saying.
At this moment, the place where the two of them were was where the remains of the ancestors would appear.
There were many "keys" to enter the remains of the ancestors, so it was naturally impossible for only the two of them to come to this place.
There were already cultivators who arrived first, they were the second and third.
"Maybe he is on the verge of a breakthrough." Li Qianqing guessed.
The wind and sand invaded, and the monk's robes in the distance rustled, but there was no trace of dust falling on his body. This person probably practiced wind attribute skills, otherwise it would be more dangerous to feel the power of the world in such an environment.
Danger often coexists with opportunities.
If he was on the verge of comprehending the power of heaven and earth, under such conditions, he might have succeeded in breaking through, but of course, there was a greater possibility that something would go wrong.
As if he had sensed the arrival of Li Qianqing and Yao Yuntao, the cultivator opened his eyes and withdrew from the state of comprehending the power of heaven and earth.
Through the yellow sand, he glanced at Li Qianqing and the others, and quickly retracted his gaze. This time he did not continue to comprehend the power of heaven and earth, but meditated silently.
Li Qianqing recalled that he was not familiar with the cultivator in the distance.
In this thousand-point area, the Eastern Region, he had never seen a cultivator who could enter the Void Refining Stage in his previous life, but he had at least heard of it, and he also knew the more famous cultivators at the late stage of the Spiritualization Stage.
According to his judgment, this cultivator in the middle stage of the Spiritualization Stage might not have successfully broken through to the late stage of the Spiritualization Stage, and might even have a mess and died when he was impacting the late stage of the Spiritualization Stage. After all, cultivators who could do such things were likely to have problems later.
When approaching the remains of their ancestors, the crescent-shaped white stones in their hands emitted a soft light.
Now this place seems to be nothing but sand, mainly because the remains of the ancestors have not yet appeared. According to Yao Yuntao, the remains of the ancestors are covered by a large spiritual formation.
Many places in the remains are composed of arrays.
Yao Yuntao himself is also a master of array formations, and he is very convincing in this regard. When he describes the remains of the ancestors, Li Qianqing just needs to listen.
As time goes by.
It was late at night, the wind stopped, and all the yellow sand that was blown up fell to the ground.
There were originally three people on the field, and now the number of cultivators has increased to six.
The three cultivators who appeared later, two were in the middle stage of the transformation of the spirit and one was in the late stage of the transformation of the spirit. So far, Li Qianqing is the only cultivator in the early stage of the transformation of the spirit.
Among the cultivators who came with him, only he and Yao Yuntao came, and the other four came alone.
However, among the three cultivators who came later, two knew each other, and now the two of them have stood together.
The six transformation of the spirit cultivators occupied four positions in the east, west, south and north, and they were very far apart from each other.
"The remains of our ancestors are about to appear." Yao Yuntao glanced at the white stone in his arms and said to Li Qianqing.
Li Qianqing nodded when he heard this.
Just as he nodded, a strong aura appeared from a distance.
The six of them all looked in one direction.
This strong aura is not something that a Divine Transformation cultivator can possess, but a Void Refining cultivator!
In the entire Eastern Region of Qianfeng Region, there are less than half a hundred cultivators who can cultivate to the Void Refining Stage, and the majority of them are in the Void Refining Stage.
The cultivator who came over is in the Void Refining Stage.
After seeing the face of this Void Refining cultivator, Li Qianqing also recalled his memories about him.
It turned out to be Nan Dongchen!
Li Qianqing did not have a good impression of this Void Refining cultivator.
Nan Dongchen's reputation was normal before he cultivated to the peak of the Void Refining Stage. After cultivating to the peak of the Void Refining Stage, in order to break through to the Void Refining Stage, he did not hesitate to sell out his friends and cooperate with the blood clan.
Cooperating with foreign races and betraying his compatriots, and they were good friends, which directly put him on the opposite side of the human race.
Later, he really broke through to the middle stage of refining emptiness, but did not break through to the late stage of refining emptiness, because he died at the hands of Long Yan when he was in the middle stage of refining emptiness.
It was also for this reason that Li Qianqing had a deeper impression of Nan Dongchen.
If most situations developed in the same way as in the previous life, in terms of time, Long Yan killed Nan Dongchen five thousand years later, and Nan Dongchen's betrayal happened three thousand years later.
At the time of Nan Dongchen's betrayal, Li Qianqing was still in the middle stage of transformation in the previous life, and Long Yan was in the late stage of transformation. About five hundred years later, Long Yan successfully broke through to the early stage of refining emptiness.
Nan Dongchen, who was in the middle stage of refining emptiness, died at the hands of Long Yan, who was in the early stage of refining emptiness.
When Li Qianqing was recalling information about Nan Dongchen, Yao Yuntao asked him in a voice transmission:
"Do you know who this senior in the early stage of refining emptiness is?"
"Fellow Daoist Yao, I have been in this world for less than a hundred years. I should be the one asking you this question." Li Qianqing said that he didn't know Nan Dongchen yet.
He was active in Nanmo City, and he had only come into contact with cultivators in the spirit transformation stage and the Nascent Soul stage, but not in the refining emptiness stage.
The master of the branch hall of the Dan Hall in Nanmo City was a cultivator in the refining emptiness stage, but he had not seen him once yet.
He should have to wait until he became a sixth-level alchemist before he had the opportunity to come into contact with this refining emptiness cultivator.
"Fellow Daoist Li, you know me. Although I have been in this world for a long time, I have been in seclusion most of the time. How can I have the energy to understand the Lianxu cultivators?"
"Okay, let's see how the others are doing later."
The two of them communicated with each other through spiritual power, but they did not communicate much about Nan Dongchen's situation.
Under the gaze of the six people, Nan Dongchen came to the middle position.
"Hello, Senior Nan."
Another late-stage Huashen cultivator saluted Nan Dongchen from a distance.
The other three people were in almost the same situation afterwards, and Li Qianqing and Yao Yuntao followed suit.
"I haven't been out for many years, and there are many new faces in the Huashen stage." Nan Dongchen said very casually, and then signaled the six people not to be nervous, just treat him as non-existent air.
When the Huashen cultivator's mastery of the power of heaven and earth reaches 100%, his Yuan life span will break through to 10,000, and after successfully breaking through from Huashen to the Lianxu stage, his Yuan life span can at least triple.
Most of the Lianxu cultivators in Qianfeng area have lived for 10,000 years.
The late-stage spirit transformation cultivator who spoke first approached Nan Dongchen and started a conversation with him. It was obvious that the two really knew each other.
The other five spirit transformation cultivators didn't know what they talked about later, including Li Qianqing.
Nan Dongchen signaled them to treat him as air, and Li Qianqing was also happy to treat him as air. Among the cultivators present, apart from him, only Yao Yuntao really did so.
Among the status of human cultivators, the status of a late-stage spirit transformation formation master is definitely not inferior to that of an ordinary early-stage refining cultivator.
The rising sun appeared in the sky.
When the sun shone on the yellow sand, the yellow sand on the ground began to jump continuously, like boiling water.
Just below Nan Dongchen, a relic continued to rise from below. Surrounded by the yellow sand, the relic seemed like a fantasy in the desert, very mysterious.
The relics of the ancestors appeared!
It is said to be a relic, and there are finely carved patterns on the walls on all four sides, which are very well preserved, as if they are new.
The formation master who created this relic is very skilled. The outer side can be like this under the protection of the spirit formation, so the place inside to test the monks must be even better.
The yellow sand stopped jumping, and the ruins were fully displayed in front of everyone.
A blue halo appeared in the central area above the ruins. This is the place to enter the interior of the ruins. Only monks wearing "keys" can enter. If you want to force the door open from the outside, at least a fusion stage monk can do it.
Among the human race, no fusion monk would do this. Ruins like this are used by the ancestors to test the descendants and benefit the human race.
Except for the human race, other races cannot enter the interior of the ruins even if they wear "keys".
When the blue halo appeared, Nan Dongchen took the lead and entered it, followed by the late stage of the transformation of the spirit.
The other three mid-stage transformation of the spirit saw this situation and felt relieved.
They were worried that this early stage of the refining of the void monk did not have the "key" of the ruins in his hand. If he came to snatch their "key" when the gate of the ruins appeared, it would be bad.
They were all guided here by the "key". Who knows if this cultivator in the early stage of refining emptiness knew the location of this relic thousands of years ago and just stopped at the center of the gate.
The "key" only guided him here, and did not guide them to lock the location in the center of the gate of the relic.
Unlike other gods.
Thirty years after getting the "key", Yao Yuntao cracked some of the mysteries of the formation in the "key" and came to this place before the relic began.
This is also the reason why Yao Yuntao pointed out the approximate location of the relic when Li Qianqing asked Yao Yuntao about it forty-five years ago.
When the two met a few days ago, Li Qianqing also asked Yao Yuntao some questions about the "key" of the relic. Among them, Yao Yuntao revealed to him that the reason why he could find two "keys" was that he cracked some of the mysteries of the formation in the "key".
There are seven "keys" like this, as shown now. When Yao Yuntao got the second "key", the other five "keys" were already in the hands of others. If he knew that these "keys" were ownerless, Yao Yuntao could use a "key" to find the remaining six.
Some of the situations described by Yao Yuntao are somewhat similar to the situation in his previous life in the Dangling Realm, when he was looking for the other three fragments of the ancient treasure Cao Ji Pan.
Two familiar mid-stage cultivators of the God of Transformation also passed through the blue light circle.
Now, in addition to Li Qianqing and Yao Yuntao, there is still the brave mid-stage cultivator of the God of Transformation at the beginning.
He glanced at Li Qianqing and Yao Yuntao and found that the two of them had no intention of entering, so he went in first.
To get rewards in the ruins of the ancestors, you must pass the test. Entering early or late will not affect the subsequent rewards.
"This blue light ring can also identify the cultivator's cultivation level. The ancestors set up such a function at the gate of the ruins... After entering the ruins, we should be assigned to different places." Yao Yuntao spoke after they were the only two left on the field.
"If you are assigned according to realm, you will be with the cultivator who was able to reach the late stage of the spirit transformation before."
"Yes." Yao Yuntao nodded.
"Such a distribution is good. The ancestors have considered many issues when setting up the ruins test." When Li Qianqing's eyes turned from the blue light circle to Yao Yuntao, he added, "If you are with that cultivator surnamed Nan, it may be dangerous."
"Oh, why does Fellow Daoist Li say that?"
Yao Yuntao looked at Li Qianqing unexpectedly. Although it was his first time to see Nan Dongchen, who was in the early stage of refining emptiness, Nan Dongchen left a test impression on him.
"Feeling." Li Qianqing only replied with two words.
He couldn't tell Yao Yuntao that he made a judgment based on his experience in his previous life.
"Well, facing a cultivator of a higher realm, it's better to be careful." Feelings are very wonderful, and Yao Yuntao didn't ask much, "Let's go in too."
"Okay."
The blue light circle cannot be passed by two people at the same time. Yao Yuntao entered it first, and Li Qianqing followed closely behind him.
Passing through the blue light circle is almost the same as passing through a layer of water film.
The first thing in front of him was black, and the glowing place was the crescent-shaped white stone in his arms.
The body kept falling, and it was difficult to mobilize spiritual power during this process, and the power of heaven and earth was also blocked.
Li Qianqing let his body continue to fall. This relic was a place where the ancestors set a test. Even if he did not pass the test, he could be guaranteed to get out alive. There was basically no danger in a relic like this.
If he fell to a certain place, his body would be wrapped in a layer of white light and fall steadily to the ground.
After Li Qianqing landed on his feet, the glowing "key" in his arms floated in front of him. The next moment, the "key" shot into the sky under his gaze. For a moment, the surroundings lit up, and he also saw the appearance of the surroundings.
Outside the ruins.
Not long after Li Qianqing entered the ruins, seven crescent-shaped white stones shot out of the blue light circle.
After they stayed above the ruins for a short time, they flew in seven different directions.
The next time the ruins are opened, seven predestined people will appear again.
With the disappearance of the seven "keys", the ruins began to sink slowly, and the yellow sand around them began to jump again.
After the ruins completely sank, the surroundings returned to their original state, as if nothing had changed.
The sinking of the ruins was not sensed by the cultivators inside.
As the ruins sank, Li Qianqing was looking at the information that appeared in front of him.
"Walk to the stone platform in the middle, and the test for the early stage of transformation begins!"
Li Qianqing did not stand on the stone platform immediately, but wanted to see if there were any other prompts around.
Who knows if being careful is part of the test? (End of this chapter)
