"Could it be that Zhenwu Great Emperor was afraid that after his death, his Dharmakaya would be immortal and regain his spiritual wisdom, turning him into an evil spirit, so he cast the Dragon-forging Platform and rested in the Nine Springs to suppress the accident?" Mengqi had read many novels in his previous life, so he had a rich imagination.
Jiang Zhiwei's expression turned serious. "That's possible."
The one that had howled in the depths of the mausoleum might be it!
Thinking of the Dharmakaya of one of the Five Ancient Emperors turning into an evil spirit, Mengqi and the others shuddered. This kind of thing could destroy the world.
Fortunately, the task was not necessarily related to evil spirits. If the mystery of Zhenwu's death was so simple, it would not be a serial task. Therefore, although Mengqi's guess was reasonable, it contradicted the description of the task. They discussed it for a while and eliminated it. They decided to continue to look for more clues.
They crossed the Dragon-subduing Platform and stepped on the stairs leading down. A faint black mist rose from the ground.
"Cultivation is difficult, and in the end, I can't help but sigh when I look back." As they walked, Jiang Zhiwei discovered that there were ancient seal scripts on both sides. The handwriting was similar to "Those who enter die, those who leave live."
Mengqi took a light breath. "Could it be that Zhenwu Great Emperor built his mausoleum, passed through the Nine Springs, and went to the place where he passed away?"
Jiang Zhi Wei gently nodded. "That's right."
Since it was Zhenwu's Decoy Grave, the tombstone at the entrance was most likely written by Devil-rinsing Primogenitor. This place was no exception.
"Maybe there are ancient secrets." Ruan Yushu held the Phoenix-perching Zither and looked curiously at the scripts on both sides. She showed a rare girlish side, elegant and cool.
Mengqi was a little confused. "But Zhenwu Great Emperor was a top ancient mighty power. Shouldn't his casual writing contain the Great Way of Heaven and Earth and have the ability to open up? Why are the scripts we see so ordinary? "
"Pfft!" Jiang Zhiwei laughed. "Do you think this kind of top mighty power can't control themselves? They can understand the Great Way, swallow the sun and the moon, spit out chaos, and freeze a world with one character. They can also be ordinary and ordinary, just like you and me. "
"So that's how it is. I thought I could get a lot of Karma points by digging out a few characters, or maybe it could be used for something else …"
Jiang Zhiwei bit her lower lip and managed to stop her expression from changing.
Ruan Yushu uttered coldly, "Waste the zither and cook the crane."
"Haha," Meng Qi laughed dryly and frowned. "Something feels off. What about you guys?"
"There's nothing." Ruan Yushu "Zither," Jiang Zhiwei "Yushu," Mengqi "was. Mengqi laughed." I don. Yushu. I Jiang Yus.
"We're all fine." Ruan Yushu tightened her grip on her zither, as if she was trapped in a ghost story.
Mengqi thought carefully and found nothing wrong. He said, "Then let's move on and see what Zhenwu Great Emperor left behind."
As they walked down the stairs, they went deeper into the mist. The darkness became thicker and they could barely see the characters on both sides.
"… There are nine regrets in my life. The first regret is that I couldn't defeat strong enemies. I fought more than 50 battles, but I tied with Sky-killing Taoist and Demonic Lord." Jiang Zhiwei was excited when she read this. She thought about the battles between the ancient mighty powers.
Mengqi listened with great interest. "Who is Sky-killing Taoist?"
"He was the leader of the Nine Serenities. He was known as the Demonic Lord. He used his own blood essence and the Nether Sea, the bottom of the Nine Serenities, to forge a peerless sword. The Dominator of Samsara in Six Realms said that he was the best at killing." Jiang Zhiwei was very familiar with swords.
Mengqi said, "So he was the owner of the Nether Sea Sword!"
There were more than ten Peerless Heavenly Weapons, but only ten of them could be listed on the first page of the Exchange List of the Dominator of Samsara in Six Realms. No matter how vast the list was, Meng Qi must have seen it before. He knew of the Deep Sea Sword, which ranked first in killing. However, the Dominator of Samsara in Six Realms did not mark the name of the Evil God of the Nine Serenities.
"Yes." Jiang Zhiwei's beautiful eyes lit up. "At the end of the Mythological Era, after Zhenwu disappeared and before the Demonic Lord fell, Sky-killing Taoist fought with the Demonic Sage Feng Xi. The battle was earth-shattering. Restrained by the True Fire of Phoenix, he couldn't kill the Nine Serenities and retreated into the depths. After a great change, the Nine Serenities hid themselves and the Sky-killing Taoist disappeared. It was said that he passed away in meditation."
"Until ten thousand years ago, there were always descendants of the Sky-killing Taoist who held the Nether Sea Sword. They didn't set up sects and didn't belong to aristocratic families. They used killing as their way. They caused many disasters and disturbed the world. The most famous one was the Qisha Daoist who died in the hands of the Devil Buddha."
Meng Qi's mind wandered as he listened. The evolution from ancient times to modern times was truly fascinating.
Jiang Zhiwei's voice became low. "My master often said that if one couldn't see the splendor of the Human Sovereign and the Nether Sea Sword, it would be one of the two biggest regrets of not being able to see the complete Seven Strokes of Heaven Interception."
"In one's life, one should see things that ordinary people haven't seen and experience things that ordinary people haven't!" Mengqi's heart was filled with pride when he heard this.
Jiang Zhiwei nodded in agreement. Suddenly, she paused. "Something seems wrong?"
"Nothing." Mengqi looked at her and then looked at himself. He didn't feel anything wrong.
Jiang Zhiwei couldn't tell what was wrong either. She could only say, "Then let's move forward as soon as possible."
The black fog became thicker and the characters on both sides became more and more indistinct. Mengqi couldn't read the ancient seal characters, so he had to hold the Heaven Inflicted Pain and hurried past.
"Second, the Heaven Interception is incomplete. I can only see the three strokes and didn't complete it. Primogenitor …"
"Eh, why do I know these characters?" Mengqi stopped regretfully. "Could it be that the characters have spirituality and can understand their meaning when they see them?"
The characters after the Primogenitor disappeared inexplicably as if their existence had been erased. There was no trace left at all. Mengqi was stunned. He didn't know who did it and why. Could it be related to some ancient secret?
Was it when the Zombies first entered?
Or was it someone else?
Mengqi wanted to open his mouth to discuss but suddenly laughed at himself. "What's there to discuss when I'm alone? Don't be schizophrenic! "
The black fog rolled and the characters on both sides could no longer be seen. Mengqi held the Heaven Inflicted Pain and walked down the stairs cautiously.
Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed and a spear fell from the sky. It was as fast as a residual shadow.
"Pa, pa, pa!" The black fog was dispersed. The lightning cut through the sky and lit up a corner.
"Eh, why is it so slow?" Compared to the attack that Zhiwei had blocked just now, it was at most a little faster than the "Aurora Electric Sword" Xiao Zhenhai.
"Wait, Zhiwei?
Where did Zhiwei go? "
Mengqi was shocked. The fog in his mind seemed to dissipate and he finally understood what had been wrong all along!
Since he stepped on the stairs and the fog surged out, he began to forget the people around him. The first was Senior Brother Qi, then the little foodie, and finally Zhiwei. If it wasn't for the lightning spear that triggered some of his memories, he would probably slowly become a Zombie!
Meng Qi managed to restrain the raging waves in his heart and his hair standing on end. He raised his Heaven Inflicted Pain to block the spear.
The trajectory of the spear was mysterious. It looked like a whip, a hack, and a divine punishment. Its power was obvious and the lightning turned into a dragon.
"Why does this move seem so familiar?" Mengqi suddenly remembered the Crippled Move of "Five Thunder Bombardment of Sky". This move seemed to be a derivative of one of the changes.
Naturally, his long saber changed and slashed out. The saber vibrated wonderfully and each tremble seemed to transform into Sky Thunder.
The Thunder Punishment was so fierce that even the sky trembled!
This was one of the changes that Mengqi usually pondered, but he had never been able to understand the Essence of Knife Dao. Now that he was pressed, he seemed to have a vague feeling.
The Heaven Inflicted Pain surged and the Knife Qi turned into a lightning snake, smashing the black fog along the way and illuminating the deep darkness.
"Bang!"
Two bolts of lightning collided, exploding into countless rays of light. It was as if raindrops were floating down, and the sound of explosions exploded in the soul.
Mengqi's body tilted and he almost fell. If it weren't for the Immortal Pressing Art, the Golden Bell Shield, and the Eight Nine Mysteries, which were known for their strength, he wouldn't have been able to block the opponent's obviously restrained and slowed down attack!
Even if he had activated his Precious Weapon, he wouldn't have been able to block it!
There was not enough time for him to use an Exterior move like "Violent Thunder Shocking the Sky".
The figure in the wide-sleeved robe and holding a long spear turned back in mid-air and went back into the darkness. Before disappearing, his cold eyes glanced at Mengqi again.
Mengqi didn't waste any time. He turned around and found Jiang Zhiwei, Ruan Yushu, and Qi Zhengyan when the electric light illuminated the darkness.
Their eyes were lifeless and they followed behind him one by one like zombies.
Mengqi's temperament changed. It was as if he had experienced the vicissitudes of time. He first used "Supernatural Power of Shaking Heaven and Hitting Earth" on himself.
The faint black fog was powerless to suppress it. The golden light leaped out and swallowed it instantly. All of Mengqi's memories were restored.
Then he took a step forward and spread his spirit to connect with Jiang Zhiwei. Supernatural Power of Shaking Heaven and Hitting Earth.
The vast and deep sea of Jiang Zhiwei's soul rose and fell slowly. It wasn't as calm as the Living Dead. Sensing this, Mengqi understood that Jiang Zhiwei was the same as him. If she was threatened, she might recover a little on her own.
The fine golden light was like a carp, covering the sea. Under the guidance of the Supernatural Power of Shaking Heaven and Hitting Earth, it gushed into the sky and dispersed the fog.
A fair-skinned little girl was holding a sword that was taller than her body. She sat there stubbornly, tears welling up in her eyes, but she didn't want to leave a single tear …
The agile girl wielded the sword like a dance. Her face was full of concentration and her heart was free of distractions …
As soon as Mengqi sensed the two memories, he saw that the fog had completely dissipated. Jiang Zhiwei's eyes had regained their vigor, so he quickly retracted them.
"Why does it feel like I'm peeping …" Mengqi thought inexplicably.
"Are you okay? Where are they? "Jiang Zhiwei asked with concern.
Mengqi's heart warmed. "I'm fine. Use the Supernatural Power of Shaking Heaven and Hitting Earth to wake them up."
As soon as he finished speaking, the black fog suddenly dissipated. Mengqi saw a figure in the depths staring coldly at the four of them. The figure was wearing a black robe and a crown. His face was thin and his eyes were deep.
"Zhenwu Great Emperor …" Mengqi couldn't help but hold his breath and murmur to himself. The black fog had completely disappeared. What he saw just now was like an illusion.
As the black fog dissipated, Ruan Yushu shook her head and groaned. Her eyes gradually regained their clarity. She then hugged her zither tightly and asked in a slightly trembling voice, "Are you guys okay?"
"We're fine. Have you regained your memories?" Mengqi asked when he saw that Qi Zhengyan was also in the same state.
Ruan Yushu nodded. "Dried Dragon Fish."
She succinctly stated that she had regained her memories.
"The Book of the Chaos." Qi Zhengyan's expression changed slightly and then returned to normal.
Mengqi was still worried that there might be hidden dangers. He used the Supernatural Power of Shaking Heaven and Hitting Earth and the method of One Heart Affecting Another to sense the two's spiritual sea. He didn't try to wake them up.
There was no fog in the spiritual sea. It rose and fell normally with golden light.
Mengqi withdrew his spirit and felt a little regretful. If he had awakened the memories of the little foodie and Senior Brother Qi first, what would he have seen? Eyes full of food? Hatred of aptitude?
After this trip, he had consumed most of his spirit. He didn't dare to be careless again. He put the Meridian Sword back into the Meridian Sword and took out the Buddha's Lamp to restore it to its original size.
The lamp didn't move. It was warm as usual. No fog or darkness could enter the light.
The four of them became more cautious and walked slowly along the stairs. When they reached the bottom, they saw a tomb at the bottom. There was another tomb in the underground palace.
A tomb in a tomb?
As far as the eye could see, there were four ancient seal characters written in front of the tomb.
"The Tomb of Zhenwu."
