The group of people followed Wang Zhuang's footprints, walked along the corridor, and walked higher and higher inside the ancient temple.
Woohoo——
The wind howled, and the huge temperature difference between day and night in the desert brought cold night winds. The temperature was frighteningly low, so people like Jin An and others with advanced cultivation were not afraid of these cold winds and continued to move forward.
The ancient temple was built against a mountain. It looked like a thirteen-story temple from the outside, but many of the main structures inside were built inside the mountain. The space inside the mountain was carved out to be much wider than it looked from the outside.
Statues of gods and murals can be seen everywhere in the ancient divine temple, but the murals have been severely damaged by wind and sand all year round. It is no longer possible to see what the paintings are, and there is no way to trace clues about the ancient divine temple.
These statues are covered with dust, and it looks like they have been abandoned here. They have not received incense and worship for many years.
But the most important thing is that there are bones scattered at the feet of several statues.
Among these bones are long arm bones and leg bones, which are the bones of people after death.
For example, Jin An and the others encountered a pile of skeletons before their eyes again.
Those bones were scattered all over the ground, and the white bones shone brightly. The atmosphere in the Ancient God's Temple suddenly became weird, and even the atmosphere of the team suddenly became serious.
"Could it be the leftovers eaten by those giant horseshoe crabs?" Master Jingchan recited sutras for the salvation of those dead bones.
"Looking at the thickness of the dust on the bones, no one has been here for at least a hundred years, so they probably didn't eat them at this time. Moreover, the people in the Ancient God's Universe have been extinct for who knows how many years. It can be guessed that these bones should be the same as those in the Ancient God's Universe.
There are old objects from an era, which can explain where the human face skin on the back of the giant horseshoe crab came from." Jin An analyzed with a frown.
Master Jingchan thought about it, nodded in agreement, and then added: "There is also a possibility. Looking at the sunken and rotten ships outside, from ancient times to the present, not only we have found the Guixu God Realm, but also several groups of teams have successively found the Guixu God Realm.
Realm, these bones may belong to those people, because the entire army was wiped out, and no one escaped to reveal the geographical location of the Guixu Divine Realm."
Uncle Lin's conjecture is also very reasonable, but the most important thing is the second half of the sentence. Didn't anyone escape?
This is not good news.
Jin An pondered and thought as he walked.
This mural corridor is very long and the terrain is constantly rising. It should be the highest point leading to the ancient temple.
The first level of the temple is already so dangerous. If they encounter a sneak attack by a giant horseshoe crab with a human face, I wonder what the higher-ups are waiting for them?
Jin An, who was thinking about something, saw the team suddenly stopped and asked what happened?
Uncle Lin and Master Jingchan did not speak. Jin An took a few steps forward and looked closer. A huge mountain peak appeared in front of him like a dead end road, and there were a large number of collapsed buildings nearby. He looked at the collapsed ruins near the cracks in the mountain.
, it seems that this mountain crack opened later and was not there at the beginning. The collapsed ruins are the best evidence.
Wuwuwu——
The sound of strong winds continued to blow along the mountain peaks, and the cold wind was cold and cold to the core. This mountain gap was the source of the cold wind in the corridor.
"There is wind here. It seems that this mountain gap can lead directly to the outside world." Master Jingchan nodded and said.
Standing on the edge of the mountain crevice, with the cold wind blowing, Jin An smelled some unusual smells in the cold wind and frowned slightly.
"Uncle Lin, Master, do you smell anything unusual from these cold winds?" Jin An asked.
The three of them discussed it, found a few abandoned torches from the corridor, and threw them into the deep pit in the mountain crevice. With the help of the dim yellow light from the torches, which fell farther and farther away, they finally saw clearly the scene in the mountain crevice.
Bones!
So many bones!
Who would have thought that there is such a corpse burial cave in the Ancient God's Universe. It seems so incompatible with the Guixu Divine Realm and the transcendent status of the Ancient God's Universe that even Jin An and the three of them looked surprised.
.
Some of the dead people had only white bones left, and some had become dehydrated mummies. A rough count showed that there were not even a thousand but seven or eight hundred.
Originally, these were buried deep inside the mountain and were unknown to outsiders. If it hadn't been for the earthquake that opened a crack in the mountain, they would never have imagined that there was such a large killing field in the ancient god's temple.
Along the way, the impression of this ancient temple is very subtle, both good and evil, and unpredictable. Just like the mysterious veil on a woman's face, outsiders cannot get a glimpse of her peerless true appearance.
"What a sin! Should the corpse pit below be an altar or burial pit where ancient gods used living people as sacrifices to perform rituals?" Master Jingchan clasped his hands together, closed his eyes and let out a sigh.
"Taking living people as sacrifices and treating human lives as nothing but grass is indeed evil. It is not like what should be in the Guixu Divine Realm." Uncle Lin frowned.
While they were still looking at the burial pit, several white ghosts suddenly ran past the pile of corpses. Soon after, all the torches were extinguished.
Before the torches were finally extinguished, they saw several pale faces, like people standing on the edge of the abyss staring into the abyss.
Jin An: "It's those giant horseshoe crabs with human faces!"
"The burial pit at your feet must be the home of the giant horseshoe crab. I didn't expect that there are quite a lot of giant horseshoe crabs here!"
Jin'an and the others found a few torches from nearby and threw them into the burial pit. This time they did not see the giant horseshoe crab again. The three of them were not very interested in killing the giant horseshoe crab, so they crossed the mountain gap and continued to the ancient times.
Walk to the heights of Shenyu.
Although the mountain crevice is deep, it is not wide. A span of several feet is like walking on flat ground for their level.
After walking along the corridor for a while, they came to a prayer flag area. These prayer flags had long been decayed and broken with history, and many scriptures had long been mutilated and lost their original function.
The three of them walked among the prayer flags for a while, their brows furrowing more and more as they walked.
Jin An: "Uncle Lin, Master, have you noticed it?"
Uncle Lin: "Yeah."
Master Jingzen clasped his hands together: "Namo Amitabha."
These prayer flags are so unusual. There is a whistling sound in my ears, and my hair is fluttering in the wind. However, these prayer flags are as quiet as still water, without any fluctuation.
Jin An wanted to inspect these prayer flag cloths, but when he touched them casually, he found that these prayer flag cloths were like dust under the years, crumbling when touched, and had become weathered and brittle.
Jin An rubbed his fingertips, his complexion changed slightly, and he found that once the fragments of the prayer flag cloth were stained on the skin, they could not be removed no matter how hard they were rubbed. The next moment, it was fluffy!
A green yin fire appeared on Jin'an's fingertips, like a gangrene attached to the bone, which burned human flesh and blood and could not be extinguished.
Fortunately, Jin An had always been cautious, and as soon as the green Yin Fire started to show some signs, it was swallowed up by the inner energy of his "Black Mountain Magic Skill", refined, and then expelled from the pores as turbid gas.
"Black Mountain Magic" originally has the magical power of swallowing gold fossils, shifting stars, and swallowing the heaven and earth.
Uncle Lin and Master Jingchan exclaimed, and followed the curiosity to touch the prayer flag cloth around them. However, their movements were much gentler. They just gently rubbed the surface layer of the prayer flag cloth and touched down a layer of light gray.
Master Jingchan put the light dust on his fingertips to his nose and smelled it, then put it to his eyes to observe carefully, his face gradually became serious. Then he rubbed his fingertips gently, and the dust particles dispersed, revealing a bit of dusty gold paint.
.
"This is... the golden body of a Buddhist monk?" Master Jingchan was stunned. The things appearing in this ancient divine space were becoming more and more unexpected, and began to exceed his understanding.
How could the Buddhist golden body burn out evil cold yin fire!
