Chapter 607: Twelve Underground Palaces Mysterious Gate Formation
Qin Ziling stood for a long time facing the twelve palaces. Finally, he took a deep breath and took a step towards the palace closest to him.
The words "Kundun" are written on this palace.
As Qin Ziling approached the palace, suddenly, ripples began to appear in the space around the huge palace.
A force like a tsunami suddenly rushed towards Qin Ziling as ripples spread out.
A giant palm surrounded by rosy clouds suddenly stretched out from behind Qin Ziling and slapped the invisible force rushing towards him.
“Bang!”
There was a loud bang.
There seemed to be a huge wave in the void, and the space was turbulent.
Qin Ziling flew back several miles, the giant palm surrounded by rosy clouds dissipated and disappeared, and the space around the palace returned to calm.
"What a powerful force! This force definitely has the power of a fourth-grade True Immortal." Qin Ziling showed a hint of shock on his face, and then quickly, the shock on his face turned into hesitation.
Just now he had only approached the "Kundun" Palace, causing the instinctive reaction of the palace's prohibitions to have such power. If he forced his way in, the power would be even more terrifying.
If it weren't for the fact that his strength had greatly increased during this period and he was now definitely capable of fighting a quasi-fifth-grade True Immortal, and if he hadn't been accompanied by Huolong, an experienced old senior, he would have probably turned around and left long ago without any hesitation.
No matter how tempting the treasure is, you have to be alive to enjoy it.
Moreover, over the long years, countless people have entered this fairy palace on Luotian Island. Even the twelve relatively well-preserved palaces may have been looted. If he risked his life to go in, he might end up empty-handed.
Of course, these twelve palaces are very important at first glance. If even a little bit of it is missed during these long years, it will be a huge fortune for him.
Just like the thousand-year-old dragon blood ganoderma that Feng Yin found, it was obviously grown in the past one or two thousand years, and he was lucky enough to have picked it up.
Just this one leak is a tremendous fortune for Qin Ziling.
This is just the periphery. The twelve palaces in front of us are the real center. Moreover, over the long years, the number of people who can enter these twelve palaces is definitely very limited, and there will most likely be omissions.
"I seem to have some impression of this formation. Let me think about it carefully." A one-eyed dragon head poked out from between Qin Ziling's eyebrows, overlooking the twelve magnificent palaces below.
"Okay, thank you for your help, senior." Qin Ziling showed a hint of joy when he heard the words. He quickly said something and then remained silent, not daring to disturb the fire dragon.
After a long time, the fire dragon's single eye suddenly opened wide, and flames suddenly jumped up in its pupil.
"I remember now, this is the Twelve Underground Palaces Mysterious Formation!" said the Fire Dragon.
"The Twelve Underground Palaces Mysterious Gate Formation? Senior, do you know how to break it?" Qin Ziling asked hurriedly.
"The twelve underground palaces of the Mysterious Gate Formation include Kundun, Chifenruo, Shetige, Shanyan, Zhixu, Dahuangluo, Dunzhang, Xieqia, Qingtan, Zuo'e, Yanmao and Dayuanxian.
An underground palace is a small world, with six mysterious gates of life, death, darkness, brightness, illusion and destruction, and infinite changes. If the twelve underground palaces are activated at the same time, even Taoist immortals will be trapped. "The fire dragon said, with a solemn look in his one eye.
"Even the Taoist immortals will be trapped!" Qin Ziling was shocked when he heard this.
"That's right!" The fire dragon nodded.
"Senior, do you have any method to break the formation?" Qin Ziling asked.
"For a truly powerful formation, even if you know how to break it, you will not be able to do so without the strength. It's the same principle as one force can defeat ten skills. When your strength reaches a certain level, if you don't have the corresponding strength to deal with it, no matter how many skills you have, they are just show." said the Fire Dragon.
"It seems that I can't enter these palaces." Qin Ziling said with disappointment.
"That's not necessarily true." said the fire dragon.
"Didn't the senior say that even if one knows how to break this kind of powerful formation, one cannot break out without the corresponding strength?" Qin Ziling asked puzzledly.
"I'm talking about a truly powerful formation. The Twelve Underground Palaces Mysterious Gate Formation here has obviously existed for a long time, and it has obviously been destroyed by someone. It is already incomplete, and its power must have been greatly weakened.
Moreover, the real power of the Twelve Underground Palaces Mysterious Gate Array lies in that when all twelve Underground Palaces Mysterious Gate Arrays are activated, even Taoist immortals will be trapped.
Now no one is controlling the Twelve Underground Palaces Mysterious Gate Formation. As long as you don't break into the Sheti Ge Underground Palace and the Zhi Xu Underground Palace, the entire Twelve Underground Palaces Mysterious Gate Formation will not be triggered." Fire Dragon said.
"Senior, what you mean is that among these twelve underground palaces and mysterious gate formations, we cannot touch the 'Sheti' underground palace and the 'Zhixu' underground palace. For the other ten underground palaces and mysterious gate formations, we can choose to enter the underground palaces that are badly damaged?" Qin Ziling couldn't help but be excited when he heard it.
"That's right, your current strength is still a little lacking, and my current strength is far from recovered. Of the twelve underground palaces, only the 'Kundun' and 'Dahuangluo' underground palaces are open to you.
As for the other palaces, given your and my current situation, even if I know something about the twelve underground palaces, if I really want to go in, I'm afraid I'll be trapped here and won't be able to get out." Fire Dragon said.
"Okay, then let's go into 'Kundun'. I'd like to ask for your help, senior." Qin Ziling nodded.
"Okay, you can attack the 'Kundun' underground palace. When its restrictions are activated, I will point out its weak points and you can take the opportunity to break in." said the Fire Dragon.
"I understand!" Qin Ziling nodded and stepped towards the "Kundun" underground palace again.
As soon as Qin Ziling stepped towards the "Kundun" underground palace, ripples began to appear in the space around the palace, and a huge force rushed towards Qin Ziling like a tsunami.
This time, Qin Ziling had decided to enter the "Kundun" underground palace without hesitation and immediately sacrificed the Wind and Thunder Mountain Seal.
Some precious mineral materials have recently been refined into this Wind and Thunder Mountain Seal, and Qin Ziling has been nurturing it day and night with seven kinds of immortal powers with different attributes. Now the power of the Wind and Thunder Mountain Seal is even stronger than before. It is already considered the top among the mid-grade immortal weapons. As long as Qin Ziling nurtures it well for a period of time, it will have a chance to break through and become a top-grade immortal weapon.
The quality of an immortal weapon, besides being related to the material of the weapon and the skill of the refiner, is also closely related to the nurturing of the owner of the weapon.
As soon as the Wind Thunder Mountain Seal was sacrificed, there was a violent storm of wind and thunder.
The Wind Thunder Mountain Seal crashed into the underground palace restriction with great momentum, creating a huge force.
“Boom!”
The force generated by the ban was constantly being knocked away.
Qin Ziling followed the Wind and Thunder Mountain Seal and continued to advance. The door to the underground palace seemed to be within reach, but suddenly a thick fog rose around him and the door to the underground palace disappeared.
Sharp four-fingered claws emerged from the fog and fell towards Qin Ziling.
"cut!"
Qin Ziling had a pitch-black, cold and sharp sword in his hand, which was the Black Dragon Sword.
The Black Dragon Sword was swung, and the cold sword light flashed through the fog like lightning.
The sharp four-fingered claws were chopped off and disappeared one after another as soon as they touched the knife light.
While killing those sharp four-fingered claws, Qin Ziling's body kept moving to the left.
"He is indeed worthy of being a genius who has opened up the channel between heaven, earth and man!" Seeing that Qin Ziling knew to move to the left without being reminded, the Fire Dragon could not help but admire him.
Soon, the fog dissipated and the four-fingered claw disappeared.
A door appeared in front of Qin Ziling.
Qin Ziling pushed open the door.
As soon as the door was opened, the world spun around and Qin Ziling found himself in an empty hall.
This hall looked magnificent from the outside, but when Qin Ziling entered, he found it was even more magnificent.
It would be more appropriate to call it a cave rather than a hall.
The sun, moon and stars were moving on the dome, which vaguely looked a bit like his paradise.
However, his cave world is real, but this place is obviously arranged using some immortal Taoist method.
The hall is extremely vast and magnificent.
The hall is supported by huge pillars, and there are many doors inside.
Some of the gates lead to palaces, and two lead to mountains and forests.
Qin Ziling was located in the central hall of these portals.
The vast and magnificent hall is the center of many gateways, which are arranged around them. There are abandoned and dilapidated stairways with traces of time leading to the central hall from each gateway.
Standing in the central hall, Qin Ziling looked around, his eyes peering through the doors inside, and he quickly made a conclusion.
Some of those palaces are alchemy rooms, some are weapon refining halls, some are scripture repositories, some are treasure houses, and some are places for cultivation.
Those two mountain forests should have been medicinal yam gardens.
It’s a pity that the “Kundun” underground palace had apparently been raided several times before.
The alchemy room was empty except for some overturned and broken alchemy bottles and furnaces.
The same is true for the Equipment Refining Hall, with only some slag left.
There were still many huge shelves in the Sutra Repository, but they were all empty.
Qin Ziling searched every corner of these palaces, even using his soul, but still couldn't find anything valuable.
"I hope there are still some good things left in the medicine garden of the medicine mountain." Qin Ziling muttered to himself after coming out of the treasure house with his hands in the air, and walked into the portal of a medicine garden of the medicine mountain.
As soon as Qin Ziling stepped into the gate of the medicinal mountain garden, he suddenly felt as if he had arrived in a primeval forest.
The sunlight was blocked by towering trees, and underneath was a thick layer of dead leaves. Waves of decaying dampness blew towards us. There was no chance of any magical medicine or herbs.
It turned out that the precious elixir fruit trees in the medicine garden on Yaoshan had been looted several times, and even their roots had been dug out. What was left were some common medicinal herbs. After a long period of no one to take care of them, they were gradually replaced by easy-to-grow weeds and trees, resulting in the current scene.
Qin Ziling did not give up and searched carefully in this medicinal mountain which was at least hundreds of miles in radius. Fortunately, his hard work paid off and he actually found a thousand-year-old Earth Emperor Essence, which was better than nothing.
After leaving the first medicine mountain, Qin Ziling stepped into the portal leading to another medicine mountain and medicine garden.
What greeted us was the same primeval forest as before.
However, when Qin Ziling passed through a primeval forest and came to a lake, his eyes suddenly lit up and even his breathing became a little rapid.
There is a small island in the middle of the lake.
On that small island, there grew a crooked tree.
This crooked tree is less than ten feet tall and is too short compared to the towering trees growing around the lake.
But it was this short, crooked tree, growing quietly on the small island, that gave Qin Ziling a feeling of towering into the clouds. The towering trees around it suddenly became dwarfed, as if they had become its subjects, bowing and kowtowing to it.
On the crooked tree hung two fruits that looked like green apples. A trace of mysterious heavenly aura emanated from the fruits, and a mirage-like scene appeared in the void behind the fruits.
"Spiritual Fruit! This is a Spiritual Fruit! This Spiritual Fruit must have been formed in the last few thousand years, and you actually got it." The fire dragon's head popped out from between Qin Ziling's eyebrows again, exclaiming in amazement.
"Hehe! It's just a little luck, just a little luck." Qin Ziling said modestly.
The fire dragon turned his head and stared at Qin Ziling with his one eye. He suddenly felt that Qin Ziling deserved a beating.
"Ahem!" Qin Ziling felt a chill in his heart and asked quickly, "Senior, is there anything special about picking the spiritual fruit? And can this spiritual fruit tree be transplanted?"
"There is nothing special about it. You just need to put it in a wooden box. It is best to use a box made of the wood of this tree. As for this fruit tree, it accidentally absorbed a ray of original power that floated between heaven and earth after the death of the Taoist immortal, and thus produced the spiritual fruit.
You picked the spiritual fruit, and the fruit tree will return to its original species. Looking at this fruit tree, it should be just an ordinary fruit tree , and it has no value to you. "The fire dragon replied.
"That's a pity. However, this fruit tree has inadvertently absorbed the original power of the Taoist immortal floating between heaven and earth. Even if it returns to its original variety, the quality of the fruit it bears will definitely be different from before, and it will definitely have some effect of prolonging life. No, this fruit tree still has great value." Qin Ziling said, and suddenly slapped his head.
"If you want to transplant it, then transplant it. You have the cave world anyway. But your current cave world cannot support the fruit trees that grow the Dao Ling Fruit, so you still have to pick the fruit first." The fire dragon glanced at Qin Ziling and said speechlessly.
He really looked down upon Qin Ziling's greed for money and stingy behavior.
It’s just a fruit tree!
"Senior, you need to take a long-term view!" Qin Ziling laughed when he saw that Huolong obviously looked down on him.
"You mean I'm short-sighted?" Fire Dragon suddenly spewed smoke from his nostrils.
"Senior, let me ask you a question. The Taoist power that flows between heaven and earth should not be something that any fruit tree can absorb and integrate, right?"
"Of course! Under normal circumstances, only a few exotic fruit trees in the world have a relatively high chance of absorbing and fusing the original power of the Taoist immortal. For other varieties of fruit trees, it's just a matter of chance." The fire dragon replied.
"That's it. Although this fruit tree is just an ordinary variety, it can absorb and integrate the Taoist immortal's original power. You said that if one day, I kill the Taoist immortal, and then move the Taoist immortal and his original power into my cave world..." Qin Ziling said.
The Fire Dragon was stunned when he heard this, and stared at Qin Ziling with his one eye, not saying anything for a long time.
"Senior, is there any problem?" Qin Ziling felt a little scared when the fire dragon looked at him. He felt that he was right.
"At the first level of True Immortal, you are thinking about killing Taoist immortals and moving the original power to let the fruit trees absorb and integrate it. You are so awesome, you are so awesome, I am convinced!" The fire dragon stretched out a dragon claw and raised a claw towards Qin Ziling.
"I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it! Thank you for the compliment, senior!" Qin Ziling said with a bow.
"No, I'm serious!" Fire Dragon said seriously.
"Hehe!" The fire dragon's seriousness made Qin Ziling feel a little embarrassed.
Soon, Qin Ziling made a wooden box, collected the two spiritual fruits, and then moved the crooked tree to the source of the Longyuan River in the cave world, Qianlong Mountain.
After obtaining the Lingdao Fruit and moving the fruit tree, Qin Ziling's luck seemed to have exploded. He unexpectedly found a piece of land soaked in the blood of a real dragon in this medicinal mountain and medicinal garden. On this piece of land soaked in the blood of a real dragon, there grew a 1,600-year-old Dragon Blood Ganoderma, and there were four other Dragon Blood Ganodermas, which, judging from their branches and leaves, were two 200-year-old and two 300-year-old.
Qin Ziling carefully and happily dug up the thousand-year-old dragon blood ganoderma and put it into the cave world. Then, after thinking about it, he moved out all the various Ganoderma lucidum planted in the medicine garden of the cave world and planted them one by one on the land soaked in the blood of a real dragon.
After transplanting them one by one, Qin Ziling also specifically asked for Ganoderma lucidum seeds from the disciple in charge of the medicine garden in the Cave Heaven World, and scattered those seeds as well.
Watching Qin Ziling's ferocious movements, Huolong was speechless for a long time.
This guy has already treated this land soaked in the blood of a real dragon as his own private medicine garden!
After harvesting another thousand-year-old dragon blood ganoderma, Qin Ziling never found any particularly precious medicinal herbs again.
Seeing that he could not find anything valuable, Qin Ziling wanted to leave, but as soon as his hand touched the palace door, he immediately triggered the restriction of the formation.
The clouds appeared again.
Six gates appeared in the clouds.
The six doors are different. Behind some doors is pitch black, behind some doors is dead, and behind some doors is full of vitality...
The six doors changed unpredictably in the clouds and mist, appearing and disappearing from time to time, making it dizzying and difficult to capture.
Not only that, what appeared in the cloud was no longer a sharp claw, but an extremely huge rat.
This rat is not only extremely cunning and elusive, but also exudes an ancient and terrifying aura of power.
Qin Ziling only collided with it once, and he flew backwards. The seven immortal infants in the immortal palace began to shake, and their immortal power was turbulent.
The combat power of this giant rat is at least at the fifth-grade True Immortal level, or even more powerful. Fortunately, as long as Qin Ziling stays in the hall, it will not take the initiative to attack, otherwise it will be a big trouble.
"Senior, how can we leave now?" Qin Ziling asked calmly.
"'Kundun' is a son, and a son means the birth of yang from the extreme yin, and it is born towards death! You must find a way to use your spirit to lock onto the death gate in the clouds and mist, and attack the death gate with all your strength!" said the fire dragon.
"good!"
The soul sitting cross-legged in the Niwan Palace emitted golden light, and souls with pure yang power were released one after another, probing into the clouds like tentacles.
