The three of them were stunned when they saw those words that clearly belonged to the earth. In fact, any person would be stunned when they saw the densely packed words on the earth on a strange planet.
Lin Chen looked over all the way and picked out the familiar ones. They were really graffiti. Some had carved emotional quotes, and some had carved a sentence or two of Taoism. However, Lin Chen couldn't understand it at all, and it was unpredictable.
In addition to the Earth's characters, there were also some characters that Lin Chen couldn't figure out at all. They didn't even look like bells, tripods, oracle bones. Maybe they were the Earth's more ancient characters, or... they were left here by civilized creatures from other planets.
Suddenly, a row of text caught Lin Chen's eyeballs, and he almost bulged his eyes out as he read out each word one by one.
Lin Chen's mouth was wide enough to fit an egg in: "Nima, Sun Wukong, are we traveling through time in Journey to the West?"
The eldest lady and the beautiful lady also saw Sun Wukong's message and were shocked for a while.
After reading all the miscellaneous graffiti, although the content was confusing, Lin Chen got some information. The word that appeared most often was "conferred upon the gods".
With a happy mood, many people carved the words that they had practiced hard for many years and finally became a god here. The historical eras ranged from far to near. Obviously, the people who came here were divided into countless groups.
Lin Chen could almost imagine a picture. One or many people stepped onto this red jade bridge. Because they were about to become gods, they felt happy and excitedly carved these graffiti on the jade bridge.
It was unbelievable. Lin Chen looked at the door plaque of the fifth gate of the palace. There were two hieroglyphics on it, "Tianque". Lin Chen knew these two characters because they were both in the hieroglyphics section of the history textbook.
Example.
This is indeed the Fengshen Temple.
Darling, I am a low-level cultivator who has not yet reached the first level of qi training, and now I am about to become a god?
Lin Chen is not that stupid. If there is really a deity here, how come there is no one here? After the deity, shouldn't the gods bathe in the fairy pond, fly in the clouds, taste the jade liquid, and rush to the peach festival?
Lin Chen suddenly remembered the description of "Kunlun Qiu", the imperial capital of the Emperor of Heaven in the lower realm, in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas".
The Western Mountain Sutra, the Hainei Western Sutra, and the Great Wilderness Western Sutra all describe the lower realm's imperial capital. It has a radius of 800 miles and a height of 70,000 feet. There are nine gates on each side. The gates are guarded by enlightened beasts. There is an abyss of weak water below and a blazing fire outside.
The mountain looks radiant in the distance, and there lives on it...
This is so similar to here, the mountain of flaming fire made of virtual fire, the abyss of weak water under the jade bridge, the nine gates of the sky, guarded by strange beasts.
The only difference is that the Classic of Mountains and Seas says that hundreds of gods lived in this palace, including the Emperors of Yan and Huang, the Queen Mother of the West, and other awesome people.
Lin Chen thought of his previous doubts. Why did the giant turtle have to take it one last time when it was obviously no longer angry? Moreover, he and the eldest beauty were not dead, and they came to this inexplicable place.
Did the giant tortoise bring him here specifically?
Is this really the lower realm of the imperial capital, the entrance to heaven, the gate to heaven? Is it really a place where gods walk? Is it really the Temple of the Gods?
Lin Chen was inexplicably shocked.
"The number of heaven and earth, there are five out of fifty, the great road is fifty, the heaven and earth are forty-nine, and humans can escape one of them."
Suddenly, a vague voice came from the palace, as if an echo was lingering. The three of them were startled. Lin Chen suddenly remembered that he seemed to have heard these words when he woke up just now.
This sentence is a Taoist term, and it has become a household name since the earth began to practice cultivation.
The last three sentences probably mean that there are fifty avenues in total, but only forty-nine avenues have evolved, leaving a glimmer of hope.
In the apocalyptic earth, everyone believes that this glimmer of hope is to cultivate truth, become an immortal, and change one's destiny against the will of heaven.
But "the number of heaven and earth, fifty is five", is not very clear. Of the fifty-five number of heaven and earth, the great roads account for fifty, so what are the other five?
However, this familiar Taoist saying came out from this gloomy palace and was particularly permeable, making this magnificent palace look even weirder.
"It's not good, the black lines are getting denser."
The eldest lady suddenly shouted in surprise. Lin Chen and the beauty also saw it. The black lines were getting denser and denser. The eldest lady and the beauty's true energy could no longer withstand it. Lin Chen also sensed that the little black turtle was getting harder and harder.
"You can only enter the palace."
"But……"
The palace was the only way to survive, but the three of them felt at the same time that the black line seemed to force them into the palace. This was a typical trap setting pattern.
But in this stunned moment, the surrounding black line had covered the sky and the sun. The eldest lady and the beauty vomited blood at the same time. Under the erosion of the black line, the real energy could no longer function, and the spacesuits were corrupting at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Lin Chen also felt the little black turtle's energy draining rapidly.
"Storm into the palace."
Even if it was a trap, Lin Chen couldn't care less, but before he could take a few steps, the eldest lady and the beauty fell down at the same time, and the black lines were so dense that they were almost invisible.
Except for the boots of the best quality, the space suits on the eldest lady and beauties have all deteriorated and begun to corrode the skin.
Lin Chen hurriedly activated the water pattern shield to protect the young lady and the beauty, but after adjusting it, it was empty and nothing came out.
It wasn't that the little black turtle refused to release its energy, but that Lin Chen clearly felt that the little black turtle was on the verge of collapse and could no longer cover himself for more than a few breaths, let alone expand the scope of protection.
"Xiao Hei, please, just three breaths, three breaths."
Lin Chen shouted loudly. He knew that using the energy of the contracted beast in this way would probably cause the contracted beast to run out of energy and die, and it would even be more likely that the three of them would not be able to enter the palace. However, Lin Chen could not just watch the beauty and the eldest lady die here.
.
The little black turtle understood Lin Chen's words, and in an instant, the water-patterned shield was forcibly extended to protect the young lady and the beauty. The two of them immediately felt much better.
Lin Chen's heart warmed, and he did not hesitate to mention the beautiful young lady who had been corrupted to the point of confusion, and ran towards the fifth door of the palace.
Fortunately, it was a straight line, otherwise Lin Chen would not have been able to find his way through such dense black lines.
But even so, the nine-meter distance seemed too far. Lin Chen had only taken a few steps when he already felt signs of exhaustion of the little black turtle's vitality, and a warm liquid soaked into his underwear.
That's the blood of the little black turtle.
Lin Chen knew that if he had another breath, the little black turtle would probably die. The little black turtle had saved him so many times, and also saved the eldest lady and the beauty, so he couldn't be so selfish.
"ah."
Lin Chen yelled and tried his best to throw the eldest lady and the beauty into the fifth door. At the same time, he forcibly took away the water pattern shield of the little black turtle and jumped in after him.
Lin Chen only felt that almost instantly, the space suit on his body was corrupted, and then he was unaware of his personnel, not even knowing that he had jumped into the fifth door.
