Passing through the mirror, Yun Xi and Bai Qing finally reached the upper level of the Thousand Crossing Layer - Wantong Layer after going through all kinds of hardships.
The first time he came here, Yun Xi opened his palms, his spiritual veins were running, his palms were shining with light, and the light illuminated all directions.
The spiritual power is back.
She breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. With her spiritual power, her whole heart felt much more stable. She used Luo Shen's mental method to eliminate all the dust and dirt on her body. It's good to be able to use spiritual power. Not to mention saving her life, in life
It is much more convenient.
After doing all this, Yun Xi looked behind her. It was exactly the same as when she first entered the Qiandu layer. After arriving at the Wantong layer, there was no entrance behind them, only a wall left, with "Wantong" engraved on the wall.
Two big characters, strong and vigorous writing.
"What are you thinking about?"
While looking around, Yun Xi suddenly found that Bai Qing was lowering his head and didn't know what he was thinking. He actually forgot to use his spiritual power to wash off his white hair.
Bai Qing raised his head, looked at her, and asked, "How did you know that he would be moved by your song?"
Yun Xi smiled and said: "Of course it is an inference. Let me ask you, how long is the history of your three Snow Fox clans?"
Bai Qing said without thinking: "Seven or eight million years."
Although these three tribes are descendants of ancient divine beasts, they actually only have a history of seven to eight million years in the history of the Heavenly Beast Continent. Compared with the Tianling Alliance, they are still less mature.
Yun Xi said: "That's okay. Since you only have a history of a few million years, it means that your ancestors should have escaped from the secret realm as early as eight million years ago, and the Demon Lord's secret realm exists in total.
It has lasted tens of millions of years, with two million years of changes in between.”
"In addition, his corpse was left on the stone tower. You and I also know that only when going from the Thousand Crossing Layer to the Wantong Layer, we will pass through that secret space. And back then we all saw the creation of Senior Buddha
According to the scene shown, since the demon master is willing to risk her life to retain part of the demon clan's bloodline, she probably would not do anything like letting living people stay in that place until they die."
"So I guess that Xiao Yu was not the first group of demon clan members who entered the Demon Lord's secret realm, but the descendants of the demon clan who were born in the past two million years. He should also have wanted to go to the Wantong layer, but unfortunately he died
I was in that secret place, and ended up guarding it there by some strange combination of circumstances."
"Although I don't know why he wants to go to the Wantong layer, but since he said that he has no regrets, then for a monster like him, the biggest regret should be that he failed to see the vastness and beauty outside, so
So I tried to play the song "Along the River During the Qingming Festival"."
Bai Qing listened to her detailed explanation and realized that she had thought so much in that short period of time.
It asked again: "Then...how do you play this piece of music so well?"
The Yao Clan does not have many artistic talents, and Bai Qing rarely listens to music, but if he listens less, he will listen less. He still has his own judgment on whether Yun Xi's performance is good or not.
That is definitely not a level that ordinary people can perform.
"I have to thank one of my teachers for this. Even if I tell you, you don't even know him."
Yun Xi silently expressed her gratitude to Shi Jin from the bottom of her heart. Thinking about it carefully, if she hadn't happened to meet Shi Jin that year, became his student, and learned music under his supervision, she would have been better in many of the following days.
It's really a lot less fun.
Not to mention that this time it helped him get through a difficult situation without any bloodshed.
Sure enough, even in the world of spiritual cultivation, spiritual cultivation is not the only way to go. Comprehensive development of morality, intelligence, body, art, and labor is the development route that Yun Xiaoxi should choose.
Bai Qing smacked his lips: "You guys, in addition to practicing, you actually practice music. Tell me, what else do you do besides these?"
Yun Xi looked at it doubtfully and said: "I also cook when I have time, and I also learn how to recognize and make tea. I am also good at photography. Of course, I occasionally write novels in memos, or study some swords."
The magic sword formation..."
She talked a lot, which made Bai Qing feel dizzy.
How can this guy be so capable? Doesn’t she take a break?
Bai Qing waved her little paw: "Stop, stop, stop, I know, I know. But when you talk about writing a novel, do you mean a story novel?"
Yun Xi nodded: "Yes!"
"You can still write this stuff?" Bai Qing looked unbelieving.
Yun Xi put her hands on her hips: "What's so difficult about this? It means I'm too busy now and write too slowly, otherwise I would definitely give it to you to enjoy!"
Bai Qing made a sound and asked nonchalantly: "What's the name of the book?"
Yun Xi touched her chin and thought for a while: "How about "My Name is Yun Xiaoxi"?"
"Just a temporary thought? Is this a book? Is this an autobiography?"
Bai Qing really thought that Yun Xi was preparing some kind of book, but after working on it for a long time, it turned out that he was writing an autobiography in a bad way! The titles of the books are still fresh! True or false!
It glanced sideways at Yun Xi, its small body floated, and flew forward. In the flash of aura, its white fur was pure.
Yun Xi followed and said unconvinced: "What happened to the autobiography? An autobiography is not a book? In fact, I thought of a more gimmicky title before, but I felt a little ashamed."
Bai Qing paused and looked back at her: "What's the title of the book?"
""I was reincarnated as a single school beauty"."
"..."
Bai Qing rolled his eyes: "I'm still reincarnated, so can I write a novel called "I Reincarnated as a Sky Beast Snow Fox"?"
"..."
"Of course, if you don't think it sounds good, I can change the title." Bai Qing added.
"What's the title of the book?"
""My name is Bai Xiaoqing"."
"..."
Yun Xi felt that she shouldn't have said this to the little fox. There was no common topic between humans and monsters!
While chatting, they walked out along the dark passage.
The architectural style of Wantong Layer is roughly the same as that of Qiandu Layer, but the internal spatial layout is completely different. Along the passage, there are no forks in the road, only a huge and empty palace.
There are eight stone pillars with a height of half a person standing in the palace. Each stone pillar is decorated with jade seals of different shapes. Behind the stone pillars, there is a bronze door, and on each bronze door, there is a sculpture.
Lifelike murals.
Yun Xi's eyes fell on those bronze doors, and she discovered that the paintings on those bronze doors were not landscape paintings, but images of monsters.
The eight paintings depict eight different creatures respectively. One of them is very familiar to Yun Xi, because the descendant of the monster race in the scroll is next to Yun Xi. It is a scroll of snow fox.
"Snow fox, dragon turtle, golden crow...the creatures in these paintings are all ancient mythical beasts."
Bai Qing was also observing these scrolls. He obviously had a deeper understanding of monsters than Yun Xi, so he quickly made a judgment.
Yun Xi looked at these scrolls and thought: "So, this Wantong layer is the inheritance of these eight divine beasts, right? Xiao Yu said before that the monsters in the Wantong layer are powerful and can tear apart
The space creates its own secret realm, which means that the corpses hidden behind these copper doors were at least in the spirit realm before death."
Bai Qing nodded: "That should be it."
It flew into the air and looked at the objects on the eight stone pillars. There was only one object on each stone pillar. According to their understanding along the way, this should mean that each bronze door only allows one person to enter.
It said: "I should have chosen the door to enter the Snow Fox Clan."
It is a snow fox itself, so it naturally decided to enter the bronze gate of its own clan without hesitation to see what would be gained inside.
Yun Xi glanced at the other bronze doors. They had come this far. She had no reason to give up this hard-won opportunity. At the same time, she was also quite curious about the inheritance of the ancient beasts of the demon clan. For a human like her,
What's the use?
She asked Bai Qing: "Which one do you think would be better for me to choose? Forget it, Dragon Turtle or Golden Crow."
After all, these two tribes exist now. Maybe the people of these two tribes are on their way to the Wantong layer now. There is no need for me to seize the opportunity that belongs to them in advance.
She has not forgotten the help she received from Gui Zizhou and Jin Mingyue some time ago.
As the young patriarch of the Snow Fox Clan, Bai Qing's understanding of these mythical beasts is obviously not at the same level as Yun Xi's. He analyzed it carefully and said:
"The remaining five paintings, if my judgment is correct, should be Kirin, Qinglong, Phoenix, Tengu, and Cunning Tiger.
According to records in ancient books, the blue dragon can control thunder and lightning and all water, and is unique in its ability to intervene in nature; the phoenix is tenacious in life, and it is said that their unique power of nirvana can give them the ability to return to life at once; the tengu is a
Its huge mouth can swallow the sun and the moon. The folk legend of Tengu eating the moon is an exaggeration of their abilities; the cunning tiger has extremely powerful explosive power and is the mythical beast in ancient times that has fought across levels and won the most times.
As for Qilin..."
Bai Qing paused and said: "I have seen very few records about Qilin in the ancient books of the clan. It only said that they are an auspicious beast and it is extremely difficult to reproduce. Even in the most prosperous period, the entire clan
There are no ethnic groups with more than double digits. As for which aspect they are the best, I don’t know.”
The Monster Clan's definition of divine beasts does not come from realm and strength, but from bloodline. The so-called divine beasts are top-level monsters whose bloodline is much stronger than ordinary monsters. In addition to their strong bloodlines, these races usually have their own characteristics. For example, the defense and longevity of the Dragon Turtle Clan, the immortal flaming sun of the Golden Crow Clan, the extreme speed and powerful mental power of the Snow Fox Clan...
According to Bai Qing's inference, if there are inheritances from various clans behind these doors, it will probably be related to the innate abilities of these mythical beasts. Unfortunately, it is from the Snow Fox clan, and it is impossible and disdainful to obtain the inheritance of other mythical beasts. p>
Yun Xi put her hand on her chin and thought seriously.
She has the Luo Shen mind method, so the inheritance of the Phoenix is naturally not needed, and the abilities of the Tengu and the Cunning Tiger are not suitable for a woman like her, so only Qilin and Qinglong are left.
Yun Xi's eyes wandered between the two doors. Bai Qing watched quietly from the side and did not help her make a decision.
After thinking briefly for a minute, Yun Xi said: "I'd better go to the bronze gate corresponding to Qilin. After all, the Jiaolong clan has the blood of the Dragon clan. If I let them know that I have obtained the Azure Dragon inheritance, it will inevitably attract some unnecessary attention.
The trouble. And compared to calling the wind and rain, I am more interested in this so-called auspicious beast."
Bai Qing smiled and said: "Then go in. Maybe when you come out, you will be considered half a beast, and then we will be of the same race."
"Forget it, I don't want to change from a human to a monster."
Yun Xi said with a bitter face, this is actually something she is more worried about. The inheritance of the monster clan is generally related to blood. What kind of price will a human like her pay if she wants to get the inheritance of a mythical beast?
But there is no use thinking about it now. After Bai Qing and Yun Xi made their decisions one after another, they both came to the stone pillar corresponding to the selected bronze door, reached out and took off the jade seals on the stone pillars. These jade seals were similar in size, but in shape.
Corresponding to the original shapes of various mythical beasts.
After taking off the jade seal, they looked at each other. There was no encouragement or blessing, but each showed a confident smile and came to the two bronze doors.
They picked up the jade seals in their hands and pressed them gently into the groove on the bronze door.
Rumble——
With two loud noises, the door opened, and two passages appeared in front of them. They took a step and walked in.
The sound started again, and the bronze door slowly closed again. This closing may mean that there will no longer be a chance to open it in the future.
……
Behind the bronze door is not another secret realm, but a wide passage. This does not surprise Yun Xi. After all, the area of the tower is so vast. If it is not used well, why is it built so big?
The passage is not dark at all. At the intersection of the left and right floors and walls, there is a crystal that emits a white light at intervals, illuminating the passage.
Yun Xi looked at this passage and found that the most noteworthy difference between this place and the Qiandu Layer passage was not the width of the road, but the walls.
The walls here are no longer as bare as those on the Qiandu Layer. Judging from the direction she is walking now, the wall on the left is carved with many dense strokes. These should be handwritings from ancient times. It is a pity that she has no knowledge of ancient culture.
I don’t know much about it, so I can’t recognize the content described in this line of writing.
On the wall to her right, there is a long picture scroll. This picture scroll is different from the image picture on the bronze door. This is a long picture with a more graphic and storytelling feel.
Yun Xi looked at the wall on the right, and her eyes fell on the first painting.
Since it is a depiction without color, Yun Xi can only identify the content of the painting through its shape.
The first thing that caught the eye was a group of monster beasts. They seemed to be standing on the ground, looking up at the sky. Above their heads, countless fragments streaked across like a wave, shattering the ground where they hit, and destroying all living things.
Yun Xi has seen this scene before. In Buddha City, Senior Buddha saw this scene for them with his own eyes.
Ten million years ago, the sky fell.
Yun Xi's eyes flickered slightly, and she continued to walk forward. One picture was very long, and Yun Xi walked for more than ten seconds before she saw the second picture.
The second painting is also a group of monsters standing on the ground looking at the sky. The difference is that this time their heads are not fragments, but a slender figure in elegant clothes. She opens her arms and seems to be exerting endless power.
Block the shattered sky fragments.
Yun Xi knew that this should be the creator of the secret realm where she was now.
