Dongping Prefecture, Qishan County.
Qishan is the mausoleum of Emperor Su of the Yu Dynasty. Construction began when Emperor Su ascended the throne. It took more than 400 years to complete the renovation of Yu Suling, which occupies the entire Qishan.
At this time, the surrounding area of Qishan had been included in the mausoleum and was guarded by Emperor Su's subordinates who had moved to Qishan County.
The sun was high in the sky and the clouds were sparse. Jiang Sheng hid his body in the mist and looked at the mausoleum below.
Just looking down from above, Qishan Mountain is extremely magnificent. The mountains rise and fall like a hidden dragon. It seems that there is a real dragon hovering in the mountains and fields, and it has an imperial aura.
Jiang Sheng pointed to the mausoleum below, and then looked at Shen Yao and Anping beside him: "Emperors of the Yu Dynasty in the past built mausoleums to squeeze the vitality of the people of a state. The more powerful the ghost and god families in this state, The more efforts are made to repair the tombs, the more powerful families in these prefectures and counties will be unable to recover.”
"In addition, in order to strengthen the weak branches, Emperor Yu would also accept the ghosts and gods of that state as his vassals, and drag the ghosts and gods of these families into the netherworld. Therefore, I don't know how many originally powerful families were reduced to second-rate, third-rate or even inferior. . ”
“Although this state has been ruined after five hundred years of oppression, its After cultivating and recuperating, other prefectures and counties have become prosperous places for the Yu emperors to continue to choose suitable places. The entire Yu Dynasty continued to repeat this process. Emperors, ghosts and gods of the past dynasties have absorbed so much incense and faith, and drained so much of the people's fat and anointing, even if it is just for their own glory. Wealth and wealth must be maintained in the netherworld, but they did not expect that they would choose to give up the foundation of their ghost town and then think about running back to the world."
Jiang Sheng's voice came to Shen Yaoji. To human ears, although Jiang Sheng's tone was indifferent and there was no hint of joy or anger, Shen Yao and the others could hear Jiang Sheng's hidden sarcasm.
Shen Yao and others are not only the only Yuanying immortals in Jinhua Mountain, but they have also entered Qingyang Cave and listened to Jiang Sheng's sermons. Although Jiang Sheng has not officially accepted any of them as disciples, they still They can respect Jiang Sheng as their master. Even if Jiang Sheng does not accept them as his disciples in the future, they can still say that they are learning from Zhenjun Yuchen Lingyuan.
It is precisely because of this relationship that Jiang Sheng did not give up on these people even after holding the Luotian Jiao. Instead, he continued to teach them with him. This outing was just an experience for them. .
Looking at Shen Yao and others, Jiang Sheng smiled and said: "You guys also have the cultivation level of Nascent Soul Realm, and you can be considered first-class in today's world of mountains and seas. The method of observing stars and performing the sky, Nine Palaces I have also taught you the art of Bagua.”
"If you look at Qishan today, what can you see?"
Shen Yao quietly looked at the direction of the mountains in Qishan, looking at the undulating terrain, and then frowned slightly, It seemed like he saw something.
Just when Shen Yao was about to confirm his thoughts, he suddenly fell into a trance and heard Anping say in his ear: "Zhenjun, the spiritual energy in Qishan is thin, the dragon veins are disordered, and the originally long dragon energy seems to have disappeared without a trace. "
"The mausoleum of Emperor Su in Qishan is already empty."
He An also followed up and said: "Zhenjun, my disciple agrees. Based on Senior Brother Ping's opinion and the disciple's observation of the surrounding terrain and the sky, he believes that the changes in Qishan Suling are not unique."
Jiang Sheng nodded to Anping and He An: "Follow me. ”
But when Jiang Sheng reached out and made a move, several people, in the midst of a whirlwind of movement, had already crossed the mountains, stones and earth, and arrived at the mausoleum of Emperor Su in Qishan.
Qishan has been completely hollowed out. Within the mountain are rolling palaces and pavilions, and between the layers of palace walls are soldiers and waiters standing solemnly.
These warriors and attendants are like living people, lifelike and agile in expression. At the same time, in the whole mausoleum, the yin energy can be seen surging, flowing like mist above the palace, and the Qishan was dug out The empty mountain top is filled with formations and embedded with pearls. As the Yin Qi surges and flows, the pearls emit brilliant light, like bright stars.
All of this always makes Shen Yao happy. It feels a little familiar.
Shaking his head, Shen Yao thought that it was the trance just now that made him a little uneasy, but he didn't pay too much attention to Anping and He An answering first. The relationship between them was very close, and it was said to be competition, but They are also senior brothers, so we can be called close.
Seeing that Shen Yao seemed to be in a trance, He An also asked with concern: "Senior Brother Shen, are you okay?"
Seeing the looks from the people in Anping, Shen Yao shook his head slightly: "Maybe it's because my realm has improved too quickly, and my soul and true spirit haven't caught up yet, so it's not a big problem." "Follow your true lord, and pay attention to the teachings. ”
A few people nodded and followed Jiang Sheng, passing through the overlapping palaces and pavilions, and came to the main hall of the Hades Palace, which was made of gold and iron in the center of the mausoleum.
As Jiang Sheng waved his hand, the palace door opened, and Jiang Sheng led Shen Yao and others into the palace.
At this time, all the bright candles were swaying in the hall, and the copper stoves were burning incense.
Deep in the main hall, there is a jade seal on the imperial dragon case, and between the beams and pillars on both sides, various portraits of ministers when they went to court are engraved on the screens.
The entire hall has dense cloud patterns on the ground, a sparse starry sky on the dome, and various patterns on the palace walls on both sides. They seem to be distinct, but there is a faint spiritual light between these patterns. Moving, it is obvious that the patterns on the palace walls on both sides, the cloud patterns on the ground, and the starry sky above are integrated. This is a magic circle covering the entire hall.
The center of the magic circle is also the center of the main hall. Where the clouds and beads cover it, there is a pool of water nine feet square.
The clouds are hazy, the water vapor is thick, and the water in the pool is a little turbid, and it is difficult to see what is in it.
When he came here, Shen Yao felt more and more familiar. It seemed that he had seen, touched and experienced everything here before.
Just when Shen Yao was a little uneasy, Anping asked: "Zhenjun, is Emperor Su's true body in the pool?"
No, it can't be in the pool!
Shen Yao hesitated to speak. Although he couldn't explain why, he subconsciously determined that Emperor Su's true body was definitely not in the pool.
But now Shen Yao couldn't tell what the problem was, so he could only look at Jiang Sheng, the person he had always trusted.
The Lord of Faxiu Jinhua Mountain, True Lord Yuchen Lingyuan, must be able to see something fishy.
But Jiang Sheng glanced at everyone, then looked around, and finally said with a smile: "Emperor Su's true body is in the pool, not in the pool, but one thing is absolutely right, this pool is indeed the key."
“Look at the arrangement of candles in the palace, and then look at the souls flashing in the cloud patterns. Yun, there is also a Water Mist Moon Hidden Formation embedded in the three-yin gathering formation on the bright side. "
"The combination of the two formations is the key to this pool."
Shen Yao's eyes lit up, and he immediately thought clearly why he subconsciously felt that Emperor Su's true body was no longer in the pool.
The three yins are combined on the surface, the moon is hidden in the mist, the two square formations are combined, and there is nothing but a reflection in the water!
Shen Yao couldn't help but say: "Flowers in the Mirror and Moon in the Water!"
Everyone looked at it, and Shen Yao finally realized what he had said.
Shen Yao looked at Jiang Sheng in astonishment, but saw Jiang Sheng looking at him with a smile on his face and a slight nod.
In the invisible place, there seems to be something ethereal, slowly transforming into life. (End of this chapter)
