In the secret plane, there seemed to be only five big praying mantises as guardian beasts, and there were no other living creatures. Even after the two of them entered the palace, there was still no movement.
Sun Qingxue seemed to be a little afraid of what had just happened. Even after entering the palace, she still carefully opened the protective magic weapon and did not dare to have the slightest carelessness.
Yang Chen was the same, but it was much better than Sun Qingxue. After all, the golden bell would appear as long as it moved, and it would actively absorb the attack, which made Yang Chen have a lot more to rely on.
The palace was very large, and there seemed to be an underground spiritual vein here, causing the spiritual power in the secret plane to be much higher than outside. It was for this reason that those big praying mantises could live to the present.
However, what was strange was that this sect had been destroyed for at least ten thousand years, and those big praying mantises had lived for tens of thousands of years, but they were still in the Yuanying stage, which was a bit confusing. Since they couldn't be promoted to the dacheng stage, it was obviously abnormal that they still had such a long life.
But now was not the time to pursue these reasons. They had already entered the hall, and it would be unreasonable to not plunder it.
The entrance to the palace was a hall with several doors around it. In the hall, it was empty, except for a well. A thick spiritual power overflowed from the well, which was clearly the exit of a spiritual vein. However, there was no dust-proof formation arranged here. There was dust everywhere, and when one stepped on it, it was a few inches thick.
There were no labels on the several gates, it seemed that they could only go in one by one. Yang Chen scanned with his spiritual awareness and motioned to Sun Qingxue to put away the Flying Sword. At the level of the foundation stage, it was indeed a bit tiring to use a defensive magic weapon and a Flying Sword at the same time.
This time, it was Yang Chen who wanted to hone Sun Qingxue, and naturally, Sun Qingxue's choice was the main one. Sun Qingxue happily opened the first door on the right, and Yang Chen walked in first, blocking Sun Qingxue behind his body.
This room looked like a study. The surrounding wall was lined with bookshelves. However, there were only a few hundred jade scrolls covered in dust on the bookshelf. There was nothing else.
There used to be a painting hanging on the wall, but now it was empty. There was only a broken scroll, which was so rotten that it was unrecognizable.
Sun Qingxue curiously walked to the side of the bookshelf and reached out to pick up a jade slip. As soon as his hand touched the bookshelf, it turned into a pile of dust. It disappeared with a loud rumble. Fortunately, Sun Qingxue had been using her protective magical equipment and retreated in time, so she was not surrounded by the rising smoke and dust.
Fortunately, there was nothing wrong with the jade slip. Sun Qingxue had no choice but to explore the contents of the jade slip with her spiritual awareness. However, she found that she could not understand what was recorded in it. The curved text was the same as the one on the secret key.
After thinking about it, Sun Qingxue handed the jade slip to Yang Chen. When Yang Chen was investigating, she went directly forward and collected all the jade slips scattered in the bookshelf powder and sent them to Yang Chen.
"These are the inheritance of this sect's cultivation method." Yang Chen read a few and shook his head: "The ancient cultivation method, there are many fallacies in it, there is no reference value!"
Just like in the blue dome Immortal's Cave, these cultivation methods are somewhat outdated and can no longer be compared with the current cultivation system. Even the reference value was not available.
"Anyway, I have no use for it, or Big Brother Yang, you put it away!" Sun Qingxue knew that she did not know these and gave them all to Yang Chen. To talk about cultivation methods, in the Scripture Pavilion of the Blue Cloud Sect, there were hundreds of thousands of cultivation methods, where would there be a need to refer to the cultivation methods of ten thousand years ago.
Yang Chen also didn't care and put it away. These things were only valuable as antiques. If someone wanted to sort out the changes of the cultivation method, these were valuable information, but if they wanted to cultivate, it was purely looking for trouble.
The two looked at the room for a while and found nothing worth taking away, then they turned back to the hall and continued to enter the second door.
As soon as they entered the door, they were greeted by a rusty giant cauldron with a height of two people. There was almost no need to ask, this must be a pill room. On the other side of the wall, there was a small stone compartment, which should be filled with things, but these things were covered with dust, and they couldn't see what it was for a while.
"Big Brother Yang, you are familiar with alchemy, you should come and see!" Sun Qingxue looked at this scene and directly pushed Yang Chen to the front.
Yang Chen was not polite. When it came to alchemy, no one in the mortal world was more knowledgeable than him, and he walked to the front.
Walking to the side of the giant cauldron, he reached out, and Yang Chen touched the body of the cauldron. His Spiritual Awareness explored it, and soon there was a result. He said to Sun Qingxue: "This alchemy furnace, the level is average, but the materials are not bad, you can put it away!"
Yang Chen could say that the materials were not bad, then the materials must be good. Sun Qingxue stepped forward and put the giant cauldron into the Qiankun bag. Then she watched Yang Chen walk to the front of the stone compartments over there, and reached out one by one to check.
Most of these compartments were buried in dust, and most of them were medicinal materials. However, after tens of thousands of years here, they had already turned into powder, and with the dust, they couldn't be distinguished at all.
After searching several compartments in a row, it was the same. After ten thousand years, even the rarest spiritual medicine had turned into dust. But there was nothing worth taking in the room except for the big cauldron.
The third door looked bigger than the other doors, and it seemed that it should lead to the master's room. However, as soon as Yang Chen went in, he saw a pair of big eyes staring at him, almost in front of him. Yang Chen was shocked, the bright ray sword was quickly held in his hand, and Sun Qingxue was blocked outside with one hand.
Just as he was about to make a move, he found that the other party was actually motionless. When he took a closer look, he found that it was just the body of a big praying mantis. Exploring with his Spiritual Awareness, Yang Chen soon found that there were more than twenty bodies of big praying mantis in this room.
This was the only dust-free room here. More than twenty big praying mantis, lined up, almost all in the same posture. With the support of its six legs, its huge body stood steadily like a stone statue.
"Oh my God!" Sun Qingxue also came in, and when she saw this scene, she couldn't help but exclaim.
Yang Chen now knew why there were five Yuanying stage praying mantis outside. It must be that the original guardian beast gave birth to the little praying mantis when it felt that its life was coming to an end. Then the little praying mantis grew up generation by generation and grew to the Yuanying stage. No wonder Yang Chen was attacked as soon as he came in. It turned out that these praying mantis didn't know the rules at all.
