Chapter 1586 - 1586 The secret of the ancient cave in the back mountain (1)
1586 The secret of the ancient cave in the back mountain (1)
The area of the back mountain was very large, but it was desolate and uninhabited, so very few sect disciples would appear.
Due to the scarcity of cultivation resources, there were not many cultivators in this world. All of them guarded the territory left behind by their ancestors, which was more important than their lives.
Compared to the places where ordinary people lived, the energy concentration of the sect’s location was more than a level higher. However, the area behind the mountain was pitifully barren, even worse than the outside world.
The reason was that although the energy in the valley was rich, it couldn’t support the use of the entire sect’s cultivators. The situation of too many monks and too little gruel was getting worse.
Therefore, after some transformation, the sect concentrated all the energy in the valley in one place. This could ensure a higher cultivation efficiency, but it also brought more competition.
The strong preyed on the weak. In the world of cultivators, this situation was very common. Only the strong could obtain more cultivation resources. In a sect, strength did not only mean strength, but also background and opportunities.
This method of cultivation seemed to be a good choice for ordinary sects, but in fact, they were forced to do so because the world Energy available for cultivation was becoming thinner and thinner. If they continued to develop, sooner or later, the inheritance of cultivators would be cut off from this world.
For the same reason, the strength of the cultivators in this world was generally not high. Those who had the strength of a Lord were enough to be called overlords.
Comparing the two, the advantage of the cultivators in the tower was revealed. As long as they were in the tower, the energy they absorbed was exactly the same, and there was no difference between more and less. It was also easier to cultivate more powerhouses.
As for energy replenishment, it was not a problem at all for the tower world, which plundered the origin power of various plane worlds. As long as the level was enough, he could have as much as he wanted!
Therefore, not every world was as abnormal as the world of loucheng. Otherwise, the greater world would have been in chaos and cultivators would not have been invading everywhere!
In this dark plane forest, Lou Cheng’s cultivators were like a group of fierce and hungry wolves, constantly searching for prey who were unaware of the situation outside and had no idea that danger was lurking around them.
……
After arriving at the back of the mountain, Tang Zhen sized up the surrounding environment before walking towards an isolated cliff that was carved with various words and patterns.
There was a stone ladder on the cliff. After the stone wall was chiseled out, hard strips of stone were inserted into it, and it followed the stone wall all the way up to a platform at the top.
The distance between each stone stick was three meters, and ordinary people could not climb it at all. Just a glance was enough to make one’s heart jump.
Tang Zhen swept his gaze over the platform that was about a hundred meters from the ground. His body gently shook and he easily flew onto it.
A disciple who was cultivating in the distance saw this scene and was so scared that he almost lost his mind. He rubbed his eyes hard, thinking that he was hallucinating.
A trace of envy flashed across the disciple’s eyes as he looked at Tang Zhen, who was still at the bottom of the cliff a second ago, and appeared on the platform in the sky in the next instant. He had already heard about what happened in the hall and knew that su huanzhen was no longer the same as before.
It was said that after his return, his strength was so great that even the sect leader was afraid of him. Who knew how strong he was?
Tang Zhen had long discovered the disciple in the quiet corner. However, he did not have any thoughts of hiding. An appropriate display of strength would also dispel the doubts of those fellows who did not have good intentions.
He didn’t know how long he had to stay here. An appropriate amount of power could prevent a lot of unnecessary trouble.
Tang Zhen’s brows were slightly furrowed as he sized up the dark cave entrance that was deliberately sculpted into the head of a ferocious beast and revealed a fierce glint in its eyes. He slowly walked in.
At the entrance of the cave, there were hammers, shovels, carts, pickaxes, and other tools. They were all made of Special Metals and were extremely hard.
After entering the cave, they were met with a large area of collapsed rocks after walking for about ten meters, blocking the cave.
His task was to clean out the hard stones and repair the damaged places. It seemed like a simple task, but it was not.
This stone was extremely hard. When an ordinary pick hit it, only a white spot would appear. Even if explosives were used, it could only crack open a volume the size of a casserole.
Such a hard stone actually had a special effect. It was a very precious ore. After being refined many times, the metal could be used to cast weapons for cultivators.
Fang Rui walked to the collapsed rock and knocked on it with his fingers. The rock actually made a “ding ding” sound.
this kind of dense ore doesn’t seem to exist in such a world. Could it be that it came from another world? ”
After sensing the texture of this stone, Tang Zhen found that it was somewhat out of tune with this world. It was like a hardwood was mixed into the world made of Bon board.
any area with such dense energy will more or less intersect with the crack between the planes. Is it the same here? ”
This thought appeared in Tang Zhen’s heart and he felt that it was more reliable.
If that was the case, then this barren cliff might not have belonged to this place, but an intruder from another world.
With a wave of his hand, a ball of flame appeared in his hand and floated towards the stone in front of him.
The rock that was originally extremely hard actually melted rapidly when it came into contact with the flames. At the same time, the special metal contained within was also extracted and automatically gathered into a ball in the air.
However, the content of this special metal was very low. From the stone that was the size of a table, only a ball the size of a quail egg was extracted.
Tang Zhen was not very interested in this kind of metal. He only wanted to know what kind of secret was hidden in this cave that was covered by rocks.
Under Tang Zhen’s control, the entire cave was covered in flames. The rocks that filled the cave also turned into lava and automatically flew to the open space outside the cave, turning it into a Flaming Mountain with an astonishing temperature!
The disciple, who was stretching his neck to observe the situation, opened his mouth so wide that it could almost fit a fist!
He really could not understand what Tang Zhen was doing in the cave. How could there be so much lava flying out? could it be that he had dug a hole in the ground under his feet?
The commotion grew bigger and bigger and soon attracted more people’s attention. The cultivators appeared nearby one after another and looked at the scene in shock.
“Oh my God, what’s going on?”
“I don’t know. Could it be a volcanic eruption?”
I heard that su huanzhen went in just now, and then something strange happened. Could it be related to him? ”
“Su huanzhen? He is the one who beat up the elder of the Foreign Affairs division and confronted the sect master in the main hall. What is his background?”
I don’t know, but I heard from master that this man has probably gotten a great opportunity. His strength is unfathomable now. I’m afraid the scene in front of us is really related to him!
As the crowd whispered to each other, the sect leader and the others arrived one after another. They looked at the lava flying out of the cave, their eyes full of uncontrollable fear.
What kind of terrifying strength could turn this ore, which was comparable to diamond, into lava?
This su huanzhen was indeed not simple. Back then, he chose to compromise in the Great Hall. Now, it seemed to be a wise choice. Otherwise, a moment of impulse might have cost the entire sect!
“Sect leader, should we go over and take a look?”
A cultivator beside him asked. His expression was very serious, but at the same time, there was a trace of greed and curiosity.
” don’t act rashly. just stay here and observe quietly! ”
The sect leader replied expressionlessly, but in his heart, he was scolding the fool. The situation was still unclear. Who would dare to rush over rashly? if they were touched by the lava, they might turn into ashes in an instant!
no matter how precious a special metal was, it was far from being as important as one’s life!
Hearing the sect leader’s words, the cultivators who had been eager to give it a try became obedient. Even the sect leader, who was the most powerful, was extremely afraid. If they went over now, what was the difference between that and seeking death?
If it was the SU huanzhen of the past, they might have been able to use their status and strength to intimidate her. But now, with just a glance at her, they felt their souls tremble.
Facing su huanzhen in this state, who would dare to provoke her? was he tired of living?
