I stared at this huge tomb. Except for the tomb door, which was about two feet wide and one foot high, I could estimate its size. The outer wall of the tomb could not be seen at all, and was only hidden in the deep darkness.
Towering into the sky, although the sky in this world is not high, it is still intimidating to look at. In addition to the tomb door, there are also many picture fragments painted on the stone walls of the tomb, which should record the priest's childhood experiences.
It’s not surprising, the lifespan of the Goddess is too long. Even if the Goddess died young, it still took thousands of years. If she wants to carve all her knowledge on the stone wall, she naturally doesn’t know where the edge will be.
The scale of this tomb alone is enough to show Shennong's affection for the Wushan goddess.
Walking to the tomb door, the patriarch stopped, and the maids beside her also stopped on both sides behind her, then bent down and respectfully retreated to both sides. Jing Ling left a distance from her, while I followed behind Jing Ling.
, seeing Jing Ling stop, he guessed that there must be some taboo.
I saw the patriarch slowly raising the scepter in his hand towards the tomb door, muttering words in his mouth, which seemed to be some ancient scripture or spell. Then, the bead on the top of the scepter suddenly emitted a very dazzling light, and the patriarch suddenly
He lowered his head and continued to recite the incantation.
When the patriarch's spell ended, the light of the bead also dimmed. When we looked closely, a smooth black stone platform suddenly appeared in front of us, and on the stone platform, there was actually a sleeping woman in white lying.
It’s Ru Yuan who fell to the bottom of the abyss with me!
"Ruyate!?"
I couldn't help but want to walk over, but Jingling raised his hand to stop him.
"Don't worry, the nine-tailed fox demon will be fine."
"What exactly do you want me to do?"
I stared at Ruyuan with some uncontrollable anxiety.
"Use your divine power to take my clan out of here." The clan leader turned around to face me and said intermittently.
Even so, I still have no clue.
"This is indeed the entrance to the Wushan Goddess Tomb. The door of the tomb has been blocked and no one can enter. The circular depression above the door of the tomb was originally inlaid with the Kunlun Mirror. Only a thousand years ago, Taku Aoki, a descendant of the god,
I came here to take down the ancient mirror, so this gap was left."
Mirror Spirit had insight into my heart and corrected my guess, but there were still many puzzles to be solved, so she continued:
"In the past, Yao Ji, the goddess of Wushan, slayed the evil dragon here. She fell in love with the mortal Yu, but she died of depression without success. Lord Shennong built this tomb and buried her in it. The mortals who believed in the goddess in Wushan asked Shennong to help her here.
After keeping watch, Shennong gave them a life span of more than a hundred years and placed them here. Because the tomb of the goddess was actually another space opened up by Shennong, and after many twists and turns, many barriers were set up, so these people could no longer leave.
They are trapped at the bottom of this dark abyss all day long. The weird and strange life you see now is precisely because they have lived in the darkness for many years and used the fish in this lake for a long time. They have reproduced here for generations, and they have become
You have to be very different from ordinary people.”
The piety and faith of the Goddess's remnants cannot withstand generations of torture after all. Indeed, even though the Goddess is kind to human beings, if she allows her descendants to remain invisible for generations, just for the promise of their ancestors at that time
It would be too cruel to live with gratitude.
While I was meditating, Jingling continued:
"In the past, Shennong used the Kunlun Mirror to set up a barrier here, using the power of the gods. Therefore, if you want to take the goddess's survivors away from here, you must also use divine power as a guide to break the barrier. Therefore, you can only use the power of the gods.
The blood of the gods can do it."
"Then Taku Aoki was here before, why not use her power to break the seal at that time?" My mind changed and I suddenly thought of this loophole.
"Hey... of course there are other conditions." Jing Ling sighed deeply, paused, and then continued: "That is the jade hairpin, Dayu's bloodline, and the time and space magic of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan."
"That being the case, doesn't it mean that we still lack the bloodline of Dayu now?"
"Everything in the world is destined, and this fox demon has the blood of Dayu."
"Ruyuan is actually a descendant of Dayu? Could it be..." After being surprised, I suddenly thought of something.
"The demon-hunting clan was founded by the descendants of Dayu based on the magic about gods and ghosts in the "Huang Ling Baojuan" given by the goddess in the past. Ruyuan's biological father is a demon-catcher."
Hearing this, I couldn't help but sneer secretly in my heart. I immediately thought of Ruohe Jishu. Whether it was Dayu or his descendants, they were all burdened with love debts. Could it be that Dayu's family had a lot of love debts in their blood?
Is it flowing with betrayal and determination?
But at the moment when my mind was wandering, I was suddenly shocked. The carving on the door of the goddess's tomb suddenly blurred for a moment, but at that moment, I felt a familiar aura - devilish energy!
There was demonic energy overflowing from the tomb of the goddess! In a daze, I noticed that in the gap between the tomb door and the stone wall, there were black lines snaking around, like slender black snakes. The closer I looked,
, the more dense it becomes, the demonic energy seems to be leaking out from the black lines. Sure enough, there are too many secrets hidden in the tomb of the goddess.
"It's not impossible to ask for my help, but I promised the Nine-tailed Fox Clan Leader to find the source of the demonic energy, and now I've concluded that the source is here. Can you give me an explanation?"
"Now that you have discovered it, let me tell you. This is also an extremely dangerous problem that you will face next. However, you must remember that what I am about to say to you now must not be told outside, otherwise it will inevitably reveal the secrets of the Gods.
It will bring disaster."
From her solemn expression, I seemed to feel that I was going to hear a rather heavy secret about the gods. The long years have really buried too many stories that I don’t know. Compared to
The lifespan of heaven and earth, even the gods, is only a drop in the ocean, a glimpse.
I nodded, and Jing Ling continued:
"Do you know that since Shen Nong cherishes his daughter so much, why did he borrow the Kunlun Mirror to set up a barrier here?"
"I think Shennong didn't want others to enter the tomb without permission and disturb the goddess's resting place? Is there any other hidden reason?"
"Have you ever heard about the goddess's spirit transforming into grass? Have you ever seen the fairy grass known as Fu Ling Grass, but do you know what the legendary fairy mushroom looks like?"
When Jing Ling said this, I thought about it and realized that I had never heard of anyone actually seeing the Ganoderma lucidum transformed from the spirit of the goddess, so I waited patiently for Jing Ling to continue.
"The remaining spiritual power after the death of the goddess infiltrated every plant and tree in the forbidden area of Ganoderma lucidum, and finally produced the rejuvenating grass that can cure all diseases and benefit all living things. But the legendary fairy mushroom is just the opposite. Because of its great power, the goddess
Yu's teasing and betrayal ended in depression, and she could not let go of it until her death. Therefore, after her death, the resentment that could not be dissipated lingered around the coffin, turning into evil weeds and almost cultivating the devil's path. Therefore, Shennong went there
The Queen Mother of the West borrowed the Kunlun Mirror and placed it in the tomb.
"Thousands of years ago, Aoki came here to look for the Kunlun Mirror in order to prevent the war between gods and demons. However, he was accidentally invaded by the resentment when approaching the goddess's tomb. When he lost his mind, he almost went on a killing spree, bringing annihilation to the goddess's surviving family. Fortunately,
I woke up at that time, barely managed to fight her off, and set up a barrier here to prevent my resentment from being exposed. But the resentment in the Goddess's Tomb became stronger and stronger, overflowing day by day, and even I couldn't
No matter how long the barrier is maintained, this is the reason why the goddess's survivors must leave here, otherwise, they will be eroded by this resentment and lose their normality. In order to protect them from the resentment, I have to seal their minds.
That's why everyone here has become stupid.
"As for the Nine-tailed Fox Clan leader you mentioned, you should think clearly. He asked you to find the source of the demonic energy. In fact, he wanted to absorb the demonic energy and break through the barrier that restricted the Nine-tailed Fox Clan's access. Moreover, his mind has been eroded by resentment.
I'm afraid that driven by resentment, there are even more crazy ideas."
I frowned, wondering whether I should believe what Jingling said, but there seemed to be no reason not to believe it.
"Who set up the barrier at the Nine-tailed Fox Clan's stronghold?"
"The cause and effect of this must be attributed to the love of the special candle jade." Jing Ling said sadly.
Only now did I connect all the connections.
"Could it be that Yaizhen set up this barrier?"
"The Nine-tailed Fox Clan didn't know the connection between the demon hunter and the goddess. They killed the demon hunter, which made Yaizhen furious, and he trapped them here in anger. However, Yaizhen didn't expect that the Nine-tailed Fox Clan's stronghold happened to be here.
The resentment above the goddess's tomb is being eroded day by day, causing many tribesmen to lose their minds and engage in bloodthirsty slaughter. At first, the nine-tailed fox clan leader used his true power to suppress the resentment of the goddess, but recently, I discovered that the tomb of the goddess
The resentment in my heart was extremely turbulent, and it was spreading continuously upwards. I knew that the patriarch was probably also controlled by the resentment, and he was constantly absorbing and cultivating it, and the consequences were really immeasurable."
"Since you are a mirror spirit and have the ability to see the future and the past, didn't you expect all this?"
"The Kunlun Mirror naturally has the ability to detect the past and the future, but it does not come out of thin air. Only someone related to it must have looked at the ancient mirror to know its past and present lives. As a mirror spirit, I am even more spiritual than the ancient mirror.
My power is so low that I can’t understand the cause and effect of God’s will.”
"Then what should we do now?"
"Break the barrier here and send the remaining members of the goddess out, but you need Yazhen to re-strengthen the barrier after the clan members leave to prevent the goddess' resentment from overflowing. I will send you out now and bother you to tell all this to the divine beast Yazhen."
"Wait a minute! Let me clarify it again. If you want me to help you save the goddess's survivors from here, you need to use the jade hairpin, so you must repair the jade hairpin. In other words, I
What can I get from helping you? So far, you don’t seem to have told me how to detoxify the jade hairpin. What’s more, you have to rely on Ruyuan’s bloodline of Dayu and the power of time and space. How do I know if she will be affected by this?
And was damaged? Furthermore, you said that after you left, you asked Yaizhen to reset the seal to prevent the goddess's resentment from spreading. According to my guess, even the barrier set by Shen Nong and the power of the Kunlun Ancient Mirror will fade over time.
There are loopholes as time goes by. If Yaizhen wants to set up a barrier, he will have to pay a high price. He may have to exhaust his soul. So what should the nine-tailed fox tribe above the goddess's tomb do? Should they be allowed to be in the barrier?
Invaded by resentment, will the clan eventually be exterminated? I originally promised the Nine-tailed Fox Clan leader, no matter whether he is now burdened by resentment, but since the life of the clan is at stake, I cannot be so rash. Therefore, if you want my help,
OK, but you must agree to three conditions."
Even though I still have doubts about what happened, this is all I can think of now.
"We will only take a bowl of blood from the nine-tailed fox demon, and we will never harm its life. Only the nine-tailed fox clan knows about the detoxification of the jade hairpin. I can only guarantee that the jade hairpin will not be damaged when breaking the barrier.
, you can take it to find the leader of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan. As for the matter of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan's barrier... I will go with you to see Yasu and explain it to it, but I can't guarantee whether it will comply."
I quietly listened to Jing Ling answer the three conditions that I had not yet said one by one. Although she did not make an absolute guarantee, it was still true after all. I nodded and told her that I was ready.
