0985. Inside the Temple

Not far from the entrance of Jiuyou Temple, there is a huge three-meter-high inscription, which is black and has four large characters engraved on it, like a knife or an axe.

Jiuyou Temple.

Li Mu had no intention of observing these and walked quickly towards the interior of the temple.

Jiuyou Temple is a large building, divided into six floors. The first floor is the one you enter from the entrance of the main hall. It is quite empty and has a large area. It looks like it was a warehouse used to accumulate casting materials or semi-finished products. .

"It was here that we found many defective armors and weapons refined by the Immortal Emperor. What I got was a broken breast mirror. It was precisely because of it that I blocked Liuyun Wufeng's blow."

Liuyun Wuxin said.

Inside the first floor, there should have been a teleportation formation that could reach the second floor. However, it has been in disrepair for a long time and can no longer be used. Only a few altars that have lost their effectiveness can be seen. Under the leadership of Liu Yun Wuxin Next, the two of them found the secret passage leading to the second floor as quickly as possible.

The layout of the second floor is relatively more elaborate. It is divided into different patterns and areas. There are several large rooms with prison-like places inside, but they are all empty. They were probably used by the Immortal Emperor back then. The place where some living test subjects are kept is quite clean and tidy.

"Here, we found some bones of some extinct mythical beasts. They can be used as materials for refining Dao realm weapons. They are valuable. They should all be in the hands of the old thief Liu Yun Wufeng now."

Flowing clouds have no front.

Li Mu said: "At which floor did you see the shadow of the female ghost in white?"

"Third floor."

"Okay, then go directly to the third floor."

Li Mu couldn't wait.

Through the extremely hidden secret passage, the two people finally arrived at the third floor.

The third floor of Jiuyou Temple seems to be a large-scale refining field. There are many small and exquisite rooms, which should be warehouses for storing important alchemy materials. The construction is very exquisite, and the layout is extremely strange. There is a faint shape of Bagua Yin and Yang. In the central Yin-Yang Fish area, a giant ten-meter-high copper furnace stands.

This copper stove is like a bell, with three legs and a rough texture on the surface. Four strange smiling faces are imprinted on the surface of the copper stove. There are four hollows between the smiles. The back is pitch black. I don’t know what else is in this copper stove. .

Liuyun Wuxin said: "At that time, we found the [Nine Nether Soul-Eating Fire] in this copper furnace. There were four in total. I got one, and the old thief Liuyun Wufeng got three. The method of integrating divine fire, that is, the data room that records the experience of various casting techniques, is over there..."

He pointed to a seemingly large room directly ahead.

Li Mu observed carefully and could indeed feel that the air was full of the breath of death. A massacre had indeed occurred here, and there were traces of being burned by divine fire. However, the dead Liuyun Family core bloodline disciples had been completely burned. [Nine Nether Soul-Eating Fire] burned into ashes, but at least it proved from the side that what Liu Yun Wuxin said was true.

As expected, the vibration of the rusty sword became more and more frequent.

That's right.

Wang Shiyu’s soul must be here.

Liu Yun Wuxin walked out of the data room and said: "Everything in it is gone. Liu Yun Wufeng should have taken it away. After all, it is the Immortal Emperor's experience in cultivating and casting weapons, which is very important."

After searching the entire three floors, no trace of Wang Shiyu's soul was found.

Li Mu carefully sensed the vibration frequency of the rusty sword, and after learning something, he said: "Let's go to the fourth floor."

Liuyun Wuxin said: "I had never entered the fourth floor at that time, so I didn't know where the secret passage was or what was on the fourth floor..."

Li Mu said: "I will lead the way."

Determining the correct route based on the vibration frequency of the rusty sword is a tried-and-true method.

Under the guidance of the rusty sword, Li Mu quickly found the secret passage to the fourth floor.

The twists and turns are like stairs, climbing up.

Finally, the door to the fourth floor came into view.

Liuyun Wuxin was extremely surprised: "Have you been here before?"

Li Mu shook his head.

He looked at the tightly closed door, frowned slightly, and said, "No, someone has already been here."

"Could it be that old thief Liu Yun Wu Feng?" Murderous intent appeared on Liu Yun Wu Xin's face.

"Not necessarily. Proceed with caution."

Li Mu walked over and slowly opened the door to the fourth floor.

A gust of wind blew from behind the door.

"Um?"

The first thing Li Mu saw was a skeleton wearing tattered armor lying in the door, holding a broken sword in his hand. Whether it was the armor on its body or the sword in it, he could see the style, material and the talisman pattern engraved on it. It can be judged from the network that it is definitely not ordinary, but because a long time has passed, it has lost its spirituality and has become scrap metal.

The two walked into the door.

"This is……"

Li Mu was extremely surprised.

The first, second and third floors of the Jiuyou Temple are all well preserved without any trace of damage. Even the various tools found in the data room and the method of fusing divine fire are preserved intact. came down, so both Li Mu and Liu Yun Wuxin subconsciously thought that the Jiuyou Temple should not have encountered any catastrophe.

But the situation on the fourth floor is completely opposite.

There was obviously a brutal battle that took place here. Everything inside has been destroyed. There are broken and collapsed rocks everywhere. If the few stone pillars that supported the whole were not still intact, maybe the entire temple would have been destroyed. , has already collapsed.

Apart from rubble and ruins, there are dead bodies.

A total of thirty or forty corpses were scattered in various directions on the ruins. Some were wearing armor, and some were only pale skeletons, and they were incomplete.

"The battle took place thousands of years ago. These people were the weakest in life and were also strong in the Taoist realm. It seems that they are not from the lineage of the Immortal Emperor, because the gods created by the Immortal Emperor will not leave their bodies behind once they die. Are they intruders?"

Liuyun Wuxin said.

Li Mu didn't care about this.

What happened thousands of years ago is just some hidden history to him. In the past, he might have been curious, but now, he just wants to find Wang Shiyu's soul as soon as possible.

Not sure if it was an illusion, but Li Mu always felt that this experience would not be as simple as it seems on the surface.

The entire fourth floor has been destroyed.

The two of them didn't find anything valuable here.

Under the guidance of the Rusty Sword, Li Mu quickly found the secret passage on the fifth floor.

There is no door at the entrance to the fifth floor, it is directly open.

There were still battles here, and the degree of damage was slightly less than that on the fourth floor. You can also see some tightly closed rooms, and you don't know what is stored there. There are traces of swords on the walls of some stone rooms.

Follow the corridor to the deepest part of the fifth floor, and a huge hall appears.

On the south side of the hall, there are four huge floor-to-ceiling windows, and it is dark outside the windows.

A two-meter-tall figure stood quietly in front of the window, looking in the direction where Li Mu and his two men came from, with his back to them.

A terrifying oppressive aura emanated from this man's body like a vast ocean.

This man was wearing red and yellow armor, majestic and magnificent like a god-king. He wore a golden helmet, with red tassels falling on the back of his head. A golden spear was stuck on the ground, emitting a dazzling light. light.

"careful."

Liuyun Wuxin immediately protected Li Mu.

As a sword servant, he has long been aware of this.

The aura of this figure was so strong and the coercion was so terrifying that he, a person at the peak of the Taoist Realm, felt a palpitation-like threat. He was afraid that Li Mu would be in danger.

"Don't worry, he's dead."

Li Mu said.

Liuyun Wuxin was startled, and after careful sensing, a look of extreme shock appeared on his face.

Indeed, the figure of the God-armored King with his back to them, although his aura was terrifyingly powerful, did not have any fluctuations in his life or soul. He stood motionless like a cold stone.

Such a powerful existence is actually dead?

How did he die?

What killed him?

Liu Yun Wuxin was extremely curious.

The same goes for Li Mu.

It's just that I can't see this person's face and can't determine his identity.

Liuyun Wuxin tried to go around from the side, but quickly gave up.

Because the powerful power fluctuations and pressure surging on this person were simply not something that the two of them could bear. Once he got within 20 meters of this figure, Liu Yun Wuxin felt that his body was about to break, and he felt a terrifying murderous aura. , as if to crush the souls of those who come close.

Even if he dies, his cultivation during his lifetime has not dissipated. This person has cultivated his body like a divine treasure. Not only is he immortal after death, but his divinity has not even dissipated. Li Mu even doubts that this person Is the true energy in the figure's body still running automatically?

It's absolutely terrifying.

Could it be that he was an emperor-level powerhouse during his lifetime?

Could it be the Immortal Emperor himself?

Countless speculations emerged in the minds of Li Mu and Li Mu.

"That golden spear..." Liu Yun Wuxin's eyes revealed a scorching light.

Everyone can see that the golden spear stuck on the ground next to this terrifying figure is a rare treasure weapon. Liu Yun Wuxin happens to be a master of marksmanship. At a glance, he is like a man burning with lust. When people see the naked beauty, they can hardly move their eyes away.

But there is no way.

There is no way to get close and get this golden gun.

Li Mu searched other places on the fifth floor but could not find Wang Shiyu's soul.

"We can only go to the last floor, which is the sixth floor."

Under the 'guidance' of the Rusty Sword, Li Mu quickly found the secret passage leading to the sixth floor.

"Have you ever wondered why there were no restrictions or formations guarding us on the fourth and fifth floors along the way?" Li Mu asked: "When you were exploring the first three floors before, you encountered Guarding the formation?"

Liuyun Wuxin said: "I encountered them before, but they were not strong. After losing some men, I still passed."

Li Mu said: "Then there is only one possibility."

He looked up at the sixth floor door that appeared in front of him.

Someone must have arrived here in advance and already destroyed the fourth and fifth floor protective formations.

And this person has probably reached the sixth level.

What will be on the sixth floor?

Li Mu became nervous without realizing it.
