Chapter 284: Longevity Elixir, Divine Objects Emerge One After Another [Subscribe]

In the huge underground city, the palaces are continuous and majestic.

On the eaves and corners of these temples, there are crouching animal sculptures that represent the underworld and death.

At the entrance of the palace, there are two bronze statues of Fang Xiangshi.

This is a side room of a Yin Palace in a mausoleum. The lighting is dim, giving people an inexplicable feeling of oppression.

At the entrance of the palace stood Li Wufang and Ling Jin.

There was disbelief in the expressions of both of them, they stared straight ahead without blinking.

This palace is very spacious and more than ten feet deep.

In the center of the hall facing the gate, there is a bronze tripod with three legs and two ears. The walls of the tripod are engraved with spells, and patterns of flowers, birds, insects, and animals.

What was surprising was that there was a flame burning under the cauldron.

The floor of the hall is paved with dark grey stone bricks and is spotless.

The decorations inside the hall, the load-bearing columns, the beams, etc., all have metal corners with exquisite shapes and luxurious details.

Judging from the flames under the tripod and the cleanliness of the hall.

It seemed like there were always people making elixirs and cleaning in this hall.

There were even wisps of medicinal vapor seeping out from above the cauldron.

Ling Jin had said before that when one entered Emperor Wu's tomb, they could smell a fragrance that made them feel refreshed and even their spiritual practice improved.

The fragrance comes from this cauldron.

On both sides of the hall, there are rows of long tables filled with hundreds of scrolls, most of which are elixir recipes from the Shang and Zhou dynasties, in pursuit of immortality.

Some of the scrolls have purple halos, which indicate they carry their own aura and are from the handwriting of saints, making them extremely precious.

On one of the long tables, there were eight medicine cauldrons of different sizes, square and round, arranged side by side.

Including the big cauldron in the middle, there are nine cauldrons in this alchemy room, the number of the emperor.

An even more shocking scene came from behind the cauldron.

Li Wufang and Ling Jin had been looking in that direction.

Deep inside the hall, there was an ancient tree growing on the ground.

It is three feet, three feet and nine inches high, which is not huge in terms of height.

But it gives people the feeling that there are countless mysteries.

A tree seems to carry a world and contains many mysteries.

Its trunk is as vigorous as a coiled dragon, its scales have a metallic luster, and it exudes an ancient and vicissitudes of life, as if it has been growing for thousands of years.

Its main trunk has three branches, corresponding to heaven, earth and man.

It is deep underground, away from the photosynthesis process that ordinary plants need, yet it is thriving.

The branches are covered with green leaves, like emerald jade.

The leaves are also strange, they are very uniform and purely round.

This is unique on other trees.

Cao Cao saw the tree in the hall through the two secret armor beasts, and immediately had an inexplicable idea, that is, its leaves are a total of three thousand pieces, collecting the three thousand spiritual wisdoms in the world and finally bearing fruit.

This tree is amazing.

Ling Jin and Li Wufang stood at the gate of the temple, not daring to move rashly, and did not continue to approach the sacred tree.

The reason was that under the tree, there was a strange beast lying with a body like a musk deer, a tail like a dragon's tail, dragon scales and a horn, and its body covered with bronze scales.

Its appearance is very similar to the legendary mythical beast Qilin.

At first glance, you'd think it was a bronze sculpture, until its tail swayed slightly.

It's actually a living creature?
The Qilin, a creature that is on par with the dragon in legend, actually exists in Emperor Wu's tomb? !
The scene inside Emperor Wu's tomb is subverting the cognition of Cao Cao and others.

The tree of immortality and the Qilin... How many wonders are hidden in this emperor's tomb?
"King Wei, there is no way to get close to the Immortality Tree!"

Ling Jin held the interrogation beads in his hand and sent a message to Cao Cao: “There is a sense of pressure when entering this hall.

My uncle and I both have a feeling that if we get close to that Qilin, we will die."

“It was under the tree, never leaving.

We have been observing it for some time. It occasionally gets up and goes to the big cauldron to spit fire and burn the cauldron. Otherwise, it stays under the tree. "

“Although I haven’t tried it, I feel that the Qilin must have the power of an immortal or a demon.”

"I'll give it a try, and you two will be responsible for the support." Cao Cao messaged.

As soon as he had the idea, the two secret armored beasts standing in front of Ling Jin and Li Wufang took action and split into two groups.

One of them dug a hole in a corner of the hall, crawled in, and tried to approach from underground.

The amazing thing is that as soon as the ground was dug up, the secret armored beast disappeared underground, and traces of array patterns emerged on the ground, and the soil and rocks were reshaped.

After four or five breaths, the ground was leveled and returned to its original state.

The other armored beast's scales trembled slightly, and in a blink of an eye it passed through the load-bearing column and climbed onto the beam.

There are also many array patterns carved on the beams, which contain mechanisms.

The patterns on the armored beast's body were intertwined and actually blended with the patterns on the beams.

In a sense, the armored beast, like a chameleon, has the ability of "mimicry". It can simulate the array patterns on the beams and blend into them, thus avoiding triggering the mechanisms and passing quickly on the beams.

The area where the armored beast passed seemed to be still absorbing these array patterns.

The scales on its body simulated the patterns on the beams, and the textures gradually increased and became denser.

The pair of armored beasts, which Mozi personally sacrificed and made, displayed magical powers and quietly approached the Qilin sacred tree.

When the one on the beam passed the area with the big medicine cauldron, Cao Cao deliberately let it stop and look down.

There really was elixir being refined in the cauldron, and the medicinal vapor emanating from it was clearly visible.

It has been hundreds of years since Emperor Wu passed away. Could it be that this furnace of elixir has also been refined for hundreds of years?

The Secret Armored Beast continued to move forward and came to the back hall, close to the tree of immortality.

At this moment, the scales and patterns on the armored beast's body glowed at the same time.

It seemed to have been stimulated by something and underwent an unknown change. From above, a creature resembling a Qilin was lying under the tree, about ten feet long.

It is smaller than the legendary Qilin and appears to be just a cub.

It lay there, with a green breath flowing from its nostrils, communicating with the sacred tree behind it.

Looking around the Qilin Wood, Cao Cao made a new discovery.

The sacred tree is covered with natural textures, which are intertwined on the leaves and branches.

These patterns seem to carry the secrets of heaven and earth, and explain the ultimate truth of longevity.

It is these textures that allow the Everlasting Tree to escape the process of photosynthesis and watering that ordinary plants need.

It grows by using the patterns on its leaves to absorb spiritual energy from the void and the earth's veins.

Behind the trees, there is a mural carved from white jade that takes up the entire wall.

The mural shows two emperors, one male and one female, both wearing tall crowns and gorgeous clothes.

The empress was sitting cross-legged in the air, with one hand stretched forward, a little light in her palm.

Another emperor stretched out his hand, as if to take away the glimmer in the empress's hand.

The murals are finely crafted and ingeniously crafted, vividly expressing the aura of the two emperors.

Cao Cao thought that there were many rumors linking Emperor Wu and the Queen Mother of the West together.

If we look at it together with the rumors, the mural in front of us is easy to explain. It should be Emperor Wu’s search for immortals, and the empress is the Queen Mother of the West.

The faint light in her hand is either the elixir of life or the seed of this sacred tree!

Cao Cao used the armored beast's perspective to look at the sacred tree again.

At the front end of one of its branches, there is a fruit. Its size and appearance are somewhat similar to an apricot, but its surface is as smooth as jade, and it has a dark yellow halo.

Its spiritual charm is so strong that it is like a magical medicine or elixir created by heaven and earth.

Underground, another armored beast was also approaching the sacred tree.

The underground of the temple is covered with roots of sacred trees, extending deep into the earth.

When the Secret Armor Beast approached within three or four feet of these roots, it felt a huge resistance.

Suddenly, the armored beast on the beam moved after Cao Cao observed the surrounding situation.

It jumped out from the beam, spread its four legs, and glided like a bat, close to the immortal tree.

However, when the secret armor beast moved, the leaves of the sacred tree trembled slightly. The Qilin raised his head under the tree, and a layer of green cloud appeared around his body. He took a step into the air, and a red flame, like a sun, burst out of his mouth.

call--

The void twisted, and the Secret Armor Beast was immediately engulfed in flames.

At the same moment, almost all the leaves on the Qilin tree were flickering.

The Qilin's body grew larger and its flames became more powerful.

The secret armor beast underground was also attacked at the same time.

A flame appeared out of nowhere and engulfed it.

Fortunately, the armored beast curled up its body, turned into a ball, rolled and leaped, and returned to the beam in mid-air.

The carvings on its armor plates have strong protective power, offsetting the fire spewed out by the Qilin.

On the beam, the secret armored beast shook its scales.

Another secret armored beast underground was also forced back several feet away from the roots of the sacred tree, making it difficult to approach.

The Qilin looked up at the beam, seemed to hesitate, did not chase after, and went back to lie under the tree.

Everything is back to normal.

It's bright.

Cao Cao glanced out the window.

Even if there is an entry pointing to the immortal tree, its fruit cannot be taken away.

After trying it, Cao Cao knew he had to find another way.

Ling Jin and the other man were still standing in the hall, not moving at all, observing the Qilin and the sacred tree.

Cao Cao turned his thoughts and looked at the grassland.

The Xianbei people were already in the process of fleeing and were now surrounded by Cao's army on three sides, making the situation unfavorable.

Tuoboben did not dare to fight at all, so he led the Xianbei people to break out and escape.

The war on the grassland is still going on.

Cao Cao withdrew the idea of ​​checking the battle situation.

The wood of immortality, the Qilin... There seems to be something wrong with these two things, but I can't tell exactly what it is.

But I saw the entry push out the words:

[Anomalies appeared in Emperor Wu's tomb. There was no Qilin before. That Qilin... was transformed by the spirit of heaven and earth. It is not a life in the conventional sense.]

[To obtain the elixir of immortality, you need to consume a fixed direction]

Cao Cao had reached five million reputation before, and the entry gave three directions.

Two of them he never used.

It immediately consumed a direction. The entry changed, and the method of obtaining the Qilin wood fruit and the elixir of immortality was given!

[Two methods are available, one is the method of the five elements' generation and restraint;
The other is the imperial seal.

The national seal carries the destiny of heaven, earth and humanity. If you separate the national seal's energy and send it into Emperor Wu's tomb, you will get the fruit of the sacred tree and the elixir of immortality.

[If you use the fixed direction twice in a row in Emperor Wu's Tomb, you can take one more item:
Emperor Wu's sword;

Military books by Wei Qing or Huo Qubing;
Emperor Wu's treasure, which contains the Immortality Map;
Choose one of the three

The entry immediately gave the method of differentiating the fortune of the Imperial Seal and the method of extracting medicine based on the five elements. You can use any one of them.

Cao Cao took a look and thought to himself that the national seal was in his hand. The method was simple. He could push the energy over through the air and get the medicine.
