Chapter 242 Stone Egg Nine Apertures

Boom~~~

The terrifying hurricane spread out from the huge rock on the top of the mountain, blowing away the cold clouds and haze in the sky, making the snowy and cold mountain clear.

"Master! Senior brother!"

Chen Ku originally thought that he would wait for Sibuxiang and Xiaofeng to find the two elders before meeting them. Unexpectedly, the two elders had already reached the top of the mountain.

"Is there more than one way up the mountain?"

He guessed in his mind, but when he saw several figures on the top of the mountain, they were forced to retreat by the golden light bursting from the boulders. They immediately jumped off the roof and quickly chased them along the road up the mountain.

Perhaps it was because the huge boulder on the top of the mountain made so much noise that Chen Ku seemed to have encountered an avalanche on his way up the mountain, with snow constantly falling down.

Fortunately, he had many changes in his body and maintained a calm figure. It took him less than half a cup of tea to reach a position less than a hundred feet away from the top of the mountain.

However, when I arrived here, I was shocked to see a golden circle of light on the ground in front of me, trapping the boulders on the top of the mountain like a prison on the ground.

"This? Another formation?"

But just when Chen Ku was about to step in to get close to the two elders.

suddenly,

Two urgent and panicked voices came from the direction of the boulder on the top of the mountain:

"Don't come close!"

The voice came from master Shan Lingguan and senior brother Qin Yuxian.

"What's going on?"

Chen Ku was so shocked that he immediately did not dare to get closer. Instead, a cloud of mist floated under his feet, trying to fly higher to see clearly the truth a hundred feet away.

It didn't matter that it was flying, I was shocked to see the three-foot-six-foot-tall boulder standing on the top of the mountain. There were many holes the size of a human head on it, which was exactly the number of nine holes.

The most frightening thing is that at the nine orifices of the boulder, there are four people sitting cross-legged, as if their bodies have been reduced by half, like four small statues in the grotto, sitting cross-legged.

The four people sitting among the four orifices of the boulder were his master Shan Lingguan, senior brother Qin Yuxian, Yelu Xuandu, a Qi practitioner from the Yuan Kingdom, and... Shangguan Yun.

At this time, the four people sitting in the four orifices also saw Chen Ku flying high in the sky on the mist, looking towards them.

“Ride the clouds and mist!”

The most surprised person was Yelu Xuandu, a great qi practitioner from the Yuan Kingdom. His eyes widened when he saw Chen Ku holding him up in a cloud of mist:

"This is not the art of 'riding on clouds and riding on mist' that can only be achieved by those who have reached the 'Earth Immortal Level'. How did this little guy from Ji Kingdom manage to ride on the mist?"

Not to mention him, even Shan Lingguan and Qin Yuxian were slightly distracted for a moment.

After reaching the seventh level of martial arts practice, one can leave the ground and fly in the air, but within a hundred breaths, this method of lifting one's body into the air without relying on the Gang Qi is enough to survive for two hundred years. Shan Lingguan, who is 20 years old, has never heard of it.

Shangguan Yun also briefly contracted his eyes, but he crossed his legs and looked at Chen Ku in the hole of the boulder, and just sneered loudly at Qin Yuxian and Shan Lingguan:

"Why, Grandmaster Qin, can't you feel the creation in the holes of this stone egg? Sitting cross-legged here and meditating, it seems that you have become a part of this stone egg. You can enjoy the creation of the 'holy body'. Every time you breathe, There is endless innocent beauty, the essence of the sun and the moon, and the essence of the universe pouring into ourselves... With such a great creation, isn't it too selfish to not let Brother Chen come in and share it with us? "

Chen Ku naturally heard these words, but he only stared seriously at the holes, which were clearly like prisons, imprisoning four people in them.

"Master, what's going on?" He asked the master directly: "Did these pebbles trap you?"

Shan Lingguan sighed and said: "Indeed, the matter started when we entered here together. Xiao Qin and I appeared on the way up the mountain to the west at the same time, but we didn't see you around, so we had to go up the mountain first. No Qi happened to meet these two guys on the top of the mountain, so we had a disagreement, and we fought with them. In the process, we also dismantled the bronze puppet of Shangguan Yun. Unexpectedly, that But Shangguan Yun didn't know what method he used to make the entire 'stone egg' emit a golden light, sucking us all directly into these four holes. "

Chen Ku heard this and looked at Shangguan Yun.

Is this the guy who opened the stone egg?

However, looking at the two teachers who were trapped at the moment, Chen Ku couldn't think of anything else and just kept asking: "Is there any way to rescue you?"

But Shangguan Yun laughed loudly and said: "Chen Ku, what are you thinking? This is a great creation. It's too late for them to be satisfied in it. They need you to rescue us. I might as well tell you the truth. This The stone egg is not only a heavenly fairy fetus spit out from the virtual sky treasure box, but also carries all the hard work of Pei Dongliu, the knight king of the fifteenth realm. Originally, he wanted to use this stone egg as a way to live out his life. The back-up man who came to the second life, unexpectedly, he himself died in the troubled times before he could give birth to the second clone, leaving only this stone egg that carried countless efforts, although he had the best quality in the world. The 'roots', but the only thing missing is the 'spiritual wisdom' that can be born from it.

Do you see that there are no nine orifices on this stone? When all nine orifices on the stone are fully opened, can the stone egg give birth to consciousness. And we sitting cross-legged in this stone egg now are equivalent to replacing the nine orifices on the stone egg. The 'four apertures' of the apertures, in other words, any one of the four of us can potentially replace the Xia King of the year and become Shi Egg's new consciousness! "

Chen Ku was doubtful when he heard this.

But Qin Yuxian said directly and loudly: "Junior brother, don't stay here anymore, leave quickly. There is a temple at the foot of the West Mountain with the same murals as the outside. It should be the exit. Leave quickly and leave us alone."

"Want to leave?!"

But Shangguan Yun suddenly smiled and flipped the Ling Yun flag in his hand, and an endless cloud of mist immediately wrapped around Chen Ku:

"It's such a blessing, why don't you come in quickly and join us!"

Chen Ku couldn't help but be shocked when he saw the formation that suddenly enveloped him from outside the boulder. He didn't expect that Shangguan Yun was sucked into the stone orifice and could actually control the Yunchui formation through the command flag, so he couldn't help but retreat quickly.

"Apprentice, leave quickly!"

Shan Lingguan also shouted at this time:

"What this guy said about the stone eggs is half true and half false. Indeed, your senior brother and I sat cross-legged in this stone egg, breathed in and practiced, and could withstand the speed of a thousand times faster than the outside world, but our body and will were gradually being weakened. Sooner or later, the stone egg will be completely transformed into a stone egg. Shangguan Yun estimated that he has some kind of trump card in the competition for the "stone egg will", so he thought of involving you to help the stone egg again. "Tian Yiqiao, go quickly and follow your senior brother's methods to get out of here! Come back and try to rescue us!"

"Hahaha, come in!"

Shangguan Yun laughed, sat cross-legged among the stones, and waved the cloud flag in his hand into the wind. To control the boundless clouds and mists, he wanted to control Chen Ku.

Comparing the statements of Shangguan Yun and the master, Chen Ku naturally believed in the master's statement more.

At this moment, I saw the Yun Chui formation swallowing him up.

The clouds and mist in the sky were boiling down like sea water. His expression changed drastically. Without hesitation, he turned into a figure the size of a dust mustard seed and disappeared from the air. At the same time, he quickly evacuated with the help of the cloud and mist technique. .

"Um?"

Shangguan Yun couldn't help but change his expression when he saw that Chen Ku's figure was suddenly so small that it was invisible to the naked eye, making it impossible for his Yun Chui Formation to capture him:

"What method is this?"

"How big or small? Shrunk into mustard?" Yelu Xuandu exclaimed in shock: "Isn't this something that can only be achieved by refining the physical body into a 'dharma body'? Qin Yuxian, Shan Lingguan, who are you disciples? road?"

Shan Lingguan and Qin Yuxian were also surprised.

Only then did they realize that Chen Ku had many hidden methods and abilities that they didn't know about.

At this time, I could only hear Chen Ku’s voice floating in the sky:

"Master, senior brother, please stay here for a moment. I have obtained a key token. I will try to rescue you now."

Chen Ku had already clearly seen the situation in front of him.

Xu Minjun didn't lie to him. There was indeed a stone egg inside, but he didn't say that the stone egg could swallow a person, causing the person and the egg to parasitize each other, and finally became the nutrient for the stone egg to spring out new life.

Shangguan Yun's identity has been a mystery from the beginning to the end. Everything about the Xia King's treasure happened with him as the origin.

Therefore, as the master said, this guy might actually have some secrets that even Xu Minjun doesn't know about.

But when Shangguan Yun heard Chen Ku's voice, he laughed coldly:

"Run away, run away, run as far as you want. Do you know why I want to release the news about the Xia King's treasure? If you are gone, there will be people from the outside who know the news about the Xia King's treasure. They are coming here in a steady stream." , as long as nine people come in and fill the nine orifices, new life will pop out of this stone egg! "No one can stop it!"

When Chen Ku heard this, his heart changed drastically.

I finally understood the reason why Shangguan Yun wanted to release the news, but his face just changed and he returned to calm:

"But you never expected... that I had already obtained the Commander-in-Chief's Order!"

With the help of the dragon's ability to transform into mustard seeds, Chen Ku quickly left the top of the mountain and went down another mountain road in the west. Sure enough, at the foot of the mountain a hundred miles away, he found a temple similar to the 'Hero Pass'.

There is another statue enshrined inside, which is actually a woman.

Look at the mountain gate archway in front of the temple.

"Hanyue Pass"

Reminiscing that the hero enshrined in Heroes Pass is one of the four heavenly kings, could it be that the female statue in Hanyue Pass is the only female "Credit Moon King" among the four heavenly kings?

Chen Ku soon found a mural similar to the one outside in the main hall of the temple. In order to rescue the two teachers, he did not dare to stay longer and stepped out directly.

When he appeared again, he was already outside Tuoshan Hall.

"General Palace! As long as we get the formation stone in the General Palace! Maybe we can...rescue the master and senior brother."

Chen Ku immediately followed the map in his mind and headed towards the location of the General Palace.

Passed through several corridors.

They were originally on the way to the General Palace, which was not far away. Not long after, a yellow hall appeared at the end of the covered bridge.

"This is the General Palace!"

When Chen Ku went to the front of the hall, he saw the two beast-swallowing gilt door knockers in front of the main hall that were the same as those of the Seed Storage Hall. The moment he approached, he suddenly opened his eyes and let out a cry. A voice as loud as a bell:

"In this important place of the General Hub, no one is allowed to enter without permission. Those who disobey will die!"

As soon as he finished speaking, one after another lightning appeared in the eyes of the two beasts that swallowed the knockers, as if they were about to burst out at any time and hit Chen Ku.

Seeing this scene, Chen Ku had no doubt that these two beast-swallowing door knockers had the ability to kill him with one blow.

Fortunately, he slowly took out the 'General Commander's Order' from his storage bag.

He just pointed at the two door knockers with his command.

The eyes of the two beast-swallowing knockers instantly became respectful, and they spoke at the same time:

"Your Majesty, the Chief Palace is open!"

Rumble~~

Accompanied by the sound of two door knockers, the vermilion door slowly opened.

However, the sound of the door opening echoed through the underground palace again, directly attracting the attention of many intruders.

…………

Phew~~

As if opening an ancient door that had been sealed for a long time, Chen Ku stepped in from the main hall, bringing up the air current and blowing the dust on the ground.

"That is?"

He was attracted by a magnificent creation in this hall at a glance.

It was clearly a miniature model of a huge building placed in the center of the hall, just like the model of the 'Ancient Chang'an City' he saw when he went to the museum in his previous life. However, this model was clearly a scaled-down version of the Xia Wang's Underground Palace. of all buildings.

In this model, Chen Ku saw the mercury lake at the entrance, the gate of the underground palace, the guard, various route buildings, as well as the scaled-down version of the Medicine Garden, the Seed Storage Hall, the Tuoshan Hall, the Shocking Hall, and the Credit Moon Hall. The palace, the armored palace, and even the snow-capped mountain world behind the mural are all included in this model.

The entire underground palace model is about one meter long and two feet square, but as Chen Ku's eyes zoomed in, even some of the textures of flowers and plants in the model could be seen clearly.

Give Chen Ku a feeling:

"Could it be that this model is the essence of the entire underground palace? The entire underground palace is actually a phenomenon externalized from this model?"

Keep this feeling.

Chen Ku's eyes soon fell on a one-foot-sized stone tablet in the center of the model. There were three large characters on the stone tablet, which read:

Xiawangjie

A realization came to his mind:

"Does the so-called holding stone refer to this stone tablet?"

Thinking back to the fact that this place is called the General Palace, it probably means that everything here can be controlled with this stone tablet or this model.

Chen Ku reached for the stone tablet, but found that he couldn't lift it:

"It grows together with the model, and this model grows together with the entire palace. Then, how should I refine it?"

Just when he fell into a puzzled thought.

"Hahaha! It turns out that all the formations and restrictions in this underground palace are controlled from here..."

Suddenly, a young man's ecstatic laughter came from outside the hall.

Chen Ku immediately turned around and looked.

He took out the Coiling Dragon Staff in his hand.

However, at the door of the main hall, reflecting the unknown light falling from the sky, a young man's figure slowly emerged. He wore a purple gold crown, a black and white cassock, and a red lipstick around his waist. gourd.

After the young man walked into the main hall.

He also instantly saw Chen Ku, who had been in the hall for a long time. His expression changed, he quickly took a step back and asked in a difficult-to-spoken Daji language:

"Who are you?!"

However, Chen Ku had already judged the origin of the young man from his dress and voice. He was dressed the same as Ye Luxuan, the great qigong practitioner of the Yuan Kingdom, and he was probably a junior in his sect.

This young man was none other than Gao Huan, who had been ordered by Yeluxuandu to keep an eye on Shangguan Yun.

Later, he was scared away by Shangguan Yun with a sword puppet, but following the message from his uncle Yelu Xuandu, he also found the route into the underground palace. Unexpectedly...

As soon as I came in here, I met Chen Ku who opened the main hall. (End of chapter)
