Chapter 713 I really didn’t take the initiative, I was just passive
Antai County.
This is the territory east of Yujing. It is very large. It is about as big as Tianyue County, Tianyang County and half of Tianhai County combined.
Zhongzhou has a vast territory, rich resources, and abundant water and soil, making it a first-class fertile soil.
Taoist Temu brought Zhou Qing here.
Before setting off, Taoist Tiemu did not tell Zhou Qing where the inheritance place was, but now it seems that it is here.
According to the information from Xuanduguan, Taoist Tiemu’s hometown is Antai County. Now that he has returned here, it is not surprising.
Soon, a mountain range shrouded in clouds and mist appeared in front of Zhou Qing.
"The Taiheng Mountains, the place where I once received my inheritance."
The two of them were riding the flying artifact, standing in the air, and looking down, Taoist Temu's eyes were full of nostalgia. .
"When I was fifteen years old, I first achieved success in my practice. I traveled with others to the Taiheng Mountains. Unfortunately, I didn't know the people because a soul plant was betrayed."
When life is long enough, the things I have experienced Enough. When I look back at some of the past events, I no longer feel angry, but feel more nostalgic.
“In desperation, I jumped off the cliff. Not only did I not die, I also accidentally received the inheritance from my predecessors, and I have been here until today.”
“…”
Classic cliff jumping adventure.
It's a pity that your adventure is not big enough to reach the level of "protagonist", otherwise Taoist Temu's name should be on the list of people in the mountains and rivers by now.
Tiemu Taoist took Zhou Qingfei into the Taiheng Mountains. Speaking of which, the flying artifact they were riding on was not the Tianxing Shenzhou.
As a land master with a certain skill, Taoist Temu is quite rich. He has a better vehicle than the mid-level Tianxing Shenzhou.
Tianxing Shenzhou, who once gave Zhou Qing a lot of face, as his cultivation reaches this point, the people he comes into contact with will become more and more powerful, and Shenzhou seems to be slowly retreating from the environment.
But Zhouzi will always remember his contribution to Zhou Qing.
The Taiheng Mountain Range is a well-known alien gathering place in Antai County. There are beasts, demons, and ghosts at the top of the mountain...
But monsters and ghosts can't make waves in this land of Zhongzhou. .
This is the hinterland of the Qi Dynasty, an area directly controlled by the Qi royal family. Things like rebellion by foreign races will not be allowed to occur.
The land of Kyoto must be harmonious and stable.
However, with the strength of the two of them, it was like being in an uninhabited land in the Taiheng Mountains. Soon they came to the edge of a cliff. Looking down, they saw a dense poisonous miasma, eerie and terrifying. It's so high that you can't see the bottom of the cliff.
If a mortal comes here and looks down, his legs will probably feel weak. From time to time, earth-shattering beast roars can be heard in the distance.
The two of them were very calm.
The Yin Shen thoughts swept away, and Zhou Qing said:
"Is this right here? There is nothing unusual about it."
Taoist Tiemu smiled mysteriously, Said:
"There are secrets below. After I get the inheritance, even if a normal heavenly master comes here, he will not find anything abnormal if he doesn't scrape three feet off the ground."
"It's really secret."
It seems that the Puppet Dao inheritance below is probably left behind by a Celestial Puppet Master.
It is reasonable that Taoist Ironwood was created by part of the inheritance of a Heavenly Puppet Master.
The two went off the cliff, fell a full two thousand meters, and then stopped.
The cliff at this location is normal. There is no cave or protrusion, but there is a section of dead wood growing on the cliff. Zhou Qing's sinister thoughts just now covered this place, but unfortunately nothing was found.
"I fell here back then, and my blood fell on this dead tree, and then triggered the magic here, and I survived by luck."
Tiemu Taoist said, pointing his finger It split open and a drop of blood flew out and landed on the dead wood.
Then there was a flash of light on the rough cliff, and it began to blur, and a cave appeared behind the light screen that rippled like water waves.
Seeing this scene, Zhou Qing was a little surprised.
He has the inheritance of a heavenly formation master, and he will study the formation restriction method in his free time. Now he has certain attainments. This light curtain is obviously the formation restriction method.
But before it appeared, Zhou Qing didn't notice it at all. After it appeared, Zhou Qing felt that it was seamless and unbreakable.
Taoist Tiemu's confidence in the concealment of this place is really not false.
It is normal for the puppet master to be proficient in formations.
Because refining a powerful puppet itself is inseparable from the help of formations, engraving formation patterns on the puppets, and even using formations to form energy sources, etc., are all inseparable from the help of formations.
Any successful puppet master must also be a master of formations.
If it is just a simple, moving iron lump, it cannot be called a puppet. The various array patterns inside it and the puppet structure are the core.
“Hoo!”
Tiemu Taoist made a seal with his hand, and then saw a nearby poisonous miasma being attracted to it, causing a sound of wind.
The poisonous miasma transformed in the hands of Taoist Tiemu, and finally turned into a human-shaped pattern that was punched out and printed on the light screen.
"The prohibition here is integrated with the entire Taiheng Mountain. It uses the nature of heaven and earth to hide itself. It is like one with this place and will not be discovered."
"Unless the Taiheng Mountain Range is destroyed, the prohibition here will be able to It will continue to exist for a long, long time.”
If a peerless powerhouse really comes here, it is certainly not 100% safe.
But this probability is too small. Which peerless person would come to a place like this with nothing to do, and would not even look at it when passing by from the sky.
“If you want to open the outermost hidden restriction, you need a specific method, combined with the power of Mount Taiheng to do it.”
Taoist Tiemu glanced at Zhou Qing with a smile and said:
"If nothing unexpected happens, the mission of the forbidden formation here will be completed after today."
That's why he put these The information was given to Zhou Qing casually, because after getting all the inheritance, it would be useless here.
Zhou Qing smiled and said, "Then I would like to congratulate the Pavilion Master in advance."
He successfully obtained the advanced Six Spirit Earth Puppet without spending any money. Taoist Tiemu obtained Heritage, both have bright futures.
While the two were talking, the light curtain cracked, and a passage appeared for one person to pass. Taoist Tiemu entered first, followed closely by Zhou Qing.
Without turning his head, Zhou Qing "saw" the light curtain behind him closed again, and the blurred cliff reappeared, restoring its disguise.
But the space inside the cave is not dark at all. On both sides of the cave walls, there are flames, burning brightly, bringing light.
Use formations to gather the energy of heaven and earth, and then convert it into flames...
The two of them walked deep into the cave in silence. They were safe along the way and did not encounter any formations. French riots.
If this road was dangerous, it would be impossible for the young Taoist Tiemu to enter it and receive the inheritance.
After going some distance, Zhou Qing and his two men came to a wide stone chamber.
There is a tall stone table here, nothing else, it is very clean.
At the deepest point of the stone chamber, there is a portal.
“It was here that I received part of my inheritance.”
Taoist Tiemu said: "I took away all the things here many years ago."
Zhou Qing nodded, indicating that he could see it.
The search was very clean.
“And behind that portal is where the remaining inheritance is stored, and it is also a place I have been unable to enter.”
“What should I do?”
"Use the method I taught you to open the portal, and then your puppet can enter it, but at this time, only the puppet can enter."
Taoist Tiemu explained, "If the puppet meets the requirements, Then the portal will be completely opened, allowing us to pass through."
"Then I'll try."
Zhou Qing took out the Six Spirit Earth Puppet and used the Taoist Tiemu's teachings. His method.
This is a method, but it is related to puppets. Under normal circumstances, Zhou Qing will definitely not use it.
Once he gets out of here, if he doesn't delve into the art of puppetry, this art will lose its value.
But if it can take effect at this time, that's enough.
The sealing method appeared, a twisted imperial character was constructed by Zhou Qing's magic power, and then rushed into the stone gate.
The stone gate disappeared, and Zhou Qing controlled the six spirit puppets and walked in.
In this step, the restrictions on the stone gate will detect the seals and puppets.
If the two owners are not the same person or have the same origin, then the puppet will be refused entry.
Tiemu Taoist used the seal method, and Zhou Qing took the opportunity to send the six spirit puppets into such a thing, which would not work.
Taoist Tiemu temporarily taught Zhou Qing's seal method, which is already considered an act of taking advantage of a loophole.
If you want to take advantage of a bigger loophole, it will be impossible. After all, it is also the inheritance place of Tianpuppet Master.
It can be said that even if there is an intelligent thing here, Zhou Qing's current trickery will be easily exposed and it is impossible to succeed.
After entering the virtual stone door, the Six Spirit Earth Puppet did not go any deeper, but stood still.
White light emerged around it and penetrated into the Liuling Earth Puppet.
"This is a special method to check the potential of the puppet."
Taoist Temu's voice sounded, and there was a hint of nervousness unconsciously.
"The puppets I have brought have all failed at this step. I hope they can succeed this time."
Zhou Qing said nothing. While watching the Six Spirit Earth Puppet being detected, the vigilance in his heart also increased to the extreme.
Although he came here with Taoist Tiemu, Zhou Qing never let go of his vigilance. Now that the Six Spirits were inside the stone gate, they could not be used by him. In anyone's eyes, he was at his weakest.
Normally speaking, a true blood second refiner would definitely not be a match against an experienced master of the Nether Realm. It would be even worse if he was attacked by surprise.
Zhou Qing could not help but be careless. Ever since he entered the cave, he seemed calm and composed on the surface, but he had always been very wary in his heart.
But what he was wary of never happened.
More and more white light entered the Liuling Earth Puppet's body, circulated and accumulated in it, and finally did not come out.
Finally, the white light stopped emerging, but the Six Spirit Earth Puppet itself was glowing. The white light in its body was very warm, then materialized, and finally formed white dots.
“Puppet Xinyuan?!”
Taoist Tiemu’s shocked voice sounded, and Zhou Qing turned to look at him.
"What?"
"It turns out that the test of the puppet's potential here is to integrate the puppet's heart source into the puppet. The essence of this process is to see whether the puppet can withstand all the puppet's heart source!"
" Yes, the more puppet heart sources it can withstand, the more it shows the breadth, carrying capacity, and inclusiveness of the puppet. This is indeed a good way to test the potential. "
Taoist Tiemu took a deep breath, and then said:
"The source of the puppet's heart is the most essential substance in the core of the puppet. A puppet must at least exist from birth to destruction. After ten years of being between heaven and earth, I have been nourished by the energy of heaven and earth, and I can extract a little bit of the puppet heart source through special means after the destruction."
"In a power like the Puppet Sect, the Puppet Heart Source is easy to collect, but for those of us who are casual cultivators or those who are not from the Puppet Sect, collecting the Puppet Heart Source is very time-consuming and laborious, and it takes a long time, and Supported by a large amount of wealth.”
There is a huge difference between the power of one person and the power of a clan.
A ten-year-old puppet can extract a little bit of the puppet's heart source, which is very troublesome for the Earth Realm monks.
But a power like the Puppet Sect is passed down from generation to generation, and it is easy to accumulate.
However, it is easy to accumulate and faster to use, so in the Puppet Sect, Puppet Heart Source is also a precious resource.
"It looks like a kind of energy, but in essence it is a metal-like substance."
"Every puppet will fuse with other puppet heart sources, because it belongs to another puppet. It has the essence material legacy of a completely different puppet."
"But every fusion of the puppet heart source is also an improvement for the puppet. What it increases is the power of the puppet heart. If the number is enough. ,Can To form a huge source of power in the puppet's body."
"This is much more convenient and can be better utilized than absorbing action energy through formations and other methods."
"The number of those puppet heart sources just now is extremely large. There must have been an energy source inside the puppet heart of this puppet. It can support it in fighting in the future. After it is exhausted, it can slowly recover."
Zhou Qing was a little surprised when he heard this, so he said that he would not worry about not using the puppet's energy in the future?
But then he realized that he was just here to help.
"Pavilion Master, this puppet heart source..."
"After merging with your puppet, it cannot be separated."
Taoist Tiemu waved his hand. "Just consider it your reward for this trip."
"When I brought puppets here to test their potential, they could only fuse part of the puppet heart source, and then they reached their limit. After failure, those fused puppet heart sources would also be taken out again."
"Now that I think about it, , the fusion before the puppet heart source materializes, is not a real fusion, it is just a rehearsal, it is here Forbidden to test the upper limit of puppet fusion. "
"Your puppet did it, so it really got the puppet heart source, and it should also belong to you. I have no chance with these puppet heart sources..."
"Thank you, Pavilion Master."
Zhou Qing thanked him. He undoubtedly got the benefit in vain.
After all, they had already agreed before coming here that Taoist Tiemu would be responsible for helping him advance to the puppet level.
The things in the inheritance land all belong to Taoist Temu.
This is a very reasonable allocation.
But the plan cannot keep up with the changes...
“What should we do next?”
"Another puppet will appear soon to fight with your puppet." Taoist Tiemu said:
"Just now we were testing the potential of the puppet, now we are testing its combat power. The puppet that will appear later will be Ksitigarbha level. "
"As long as your puppet can hold on in its hands for a period of time, it will be considered a pass. "
Ksitigarbha is the second level after the Netherworld. Small realm.
After Taoist Ironwood finished speaking, he saw a silver puppet walking from the depths of the stone gate, and came to the Six Spirits puppet in one step.
There was nothing to say, and the battle broke out immediately.
Although there are restrictions and barriers, Zhou Qing can still intuitively see the ferocity of the puppets in the ground.
It is unrealistic for the Six Spirit Earth Puppet to defeat that puppet now. After all, it was refined by the Celestial Puppet Master to guard the portal.
But if you resist for a while, there is really no problem.
This level was also successfully passed.
The light curtain on the stone door disappeared and opened with a bang, but at the same time, the six spirit puppets also disappeared directly together with the gatekeeper puppet.
Zhou Qing's heart suddenly tightened and he looked at Taoist Tiemu.
The only surface combat power around him disappeared, and he was in an unprecedented weak state again!
If Taoist Temuji has evil intentions, this can be said to be the best time to take action.
I saw him frowning slightly and said:
"This...I don't know what happened. I only know the conditions for entering behind the door. This scene is not recorded in the inheritance I received."
"You will know once you go in."
Taoist Tiemu walked in, and Zhou Qing did not leave behind.
Behind the stone gate is a passage, and after walking a few steps, I saw a second stone chamber.
This is smaller than the previous stone chamber, but it has many more things.
A stone statue stands in the middle, the image of an old man.
In front of the stone statue, there is a large stone table with several things on it.
On both sides of the stone table, stood two puppets, one silver and one gold. The silver one was the puppet that had just fought against the Six Spirit Puppet.
Behind the stone statue, there is a fire pool, with flames rising in the pool, and a figure can be seen lying in the pool.
It is the Six Spirit Puppet.
Zhou Qing was anxious, my puppet was burned?
"Pavilion Master, please take a look at the situation of the Six Spirit Puppet."
Zhou Qing did not act rashly. He was faced with the inheritance. He was afraid that his actions would cause Taoist Tiemu to misunderstand. .
He believed that he was not the only one who was on guard along the way, but Taoist Tiemu was also the same.
“Be patient and don’t be impatient.”
Taoist Tiemu walked behind the stone statue, did a little exploration, and looked at the scene in the fire pool, his expression suddenly became a little complicated.
"There is no problem with it. What is happening now is not a bad thing for this puppet, but a great good thing."
?
Have I benefited again?
Taoist Tiemu put away some of the things on the stone table and picked up something that was obviously letter paper and looked at it.
Those should be the last words left by the masters who left their inheritance here.
Zhou Qing did not show any prying behavior regarding his last words and inherited treasures to avoid causing misunderstandings.
He did not come here to compete with Taoist Tiemu for inheritance.
Finally, after reading his last words, Taoist Tiemu put them away, and Zhou Qing walked over.
He looked at the two gold and silver puppets and said:
"The golden puppet seems to be stronger than the silver one?"
"Yes." Taoist Tiemu nodded.
"The golden puppet is the level of the back land, and the silver puppet is the level of the earth."
The back land is the third small realm of the earth, and further up, it is the end of the earth. Top: Da Luo land.
Zhou Qing asked curiously: "Are there no heavenly puppets here?"
"Master existed when he was alive, but before he died, he was destroyed in a battle."
Have you already worshiped the dead strong man as your master...
But Since there once was a Heavenly Puppet, then this place was indeed left by a Heavenly Puppet Master.
Other issues regarding inheritance, Zhou Qing did not inquire about.
“What’s going on with the Six Spirit Puppet?”
"This is the Puppet Refining Pool."
Tiemu Taoist said: "The master's last arrangement before his death was a blessing given to the inheritors. The puppets that can open this place will be tempered after entering the Puppet Refining Pool. Refining, a radical change occurred. ”
“After your puppet comes out of the puppet refining pool, it is not a problem to be promoted to the level of Ksitigarbha. This is just one of the benefits.”
Zhou Qing was stunned, such a great fortune...
It’s over, I can’t explain it now.
