Chapter 148 Dream Essence
The two of them got the benefits but did not stop there. After all, Jiang Zixia and Ji Ziyue's goal was to find the scene in their dreams and solve the mystery that had been bothering them.

They continued to move forward and as soon as they came in, their faces changed color. It was too spooky here!
There are ghosts all over the mountains and plains, and their chirping ghosts make people's scalp numb.

What kind of world is this? It is incomprehensible. There are shadows everywhere, and corpses everywhere, just like the grass and trees, covering every inch of land. Black ghost hands are dancing, as endless as a field of wild grass. The eerie cold air makes people feel cold all over, and they can't help shivering.

The small world of the thirty-fourth level temple is the world of Yin spirits. There is a volcano-like mountain in front of it, surrounded by ribbons of magic mist. The mountain pass breathes black air outwards, and ghosts cry and howl. The evil corpses there are densely packed, constantly moving outwards. climb.

"The First Ancestral Vein was originally the most sacred place in Zhongzhou, but now it has undergone another extreme change, completely turning into a den of ghosts and a paradise for cultivating evil spirits." Zixia sighed.

This place is exactly where the Zhongzhou ancestral vein is located. The deep volcanic cave entrance is like a wound in the earth, leading to the underground ancestral vein. But what is the first ancestral vein in Zhongzhou doing now? One after another, ancient corpses and evil spirits are crawling out of there!
The ghost mountains and ghost seas are endless, covering the entire small world. Even tens or millions are less.

However, these ghosts still ignored the two of them.

Zixia and Ji Ziyue also floated over like ghosts and slowly landed under the black mountain.

There is a huge black hole in this mountain. Looking down, there are ancient buildings in the ground and a temple standing there. That is the way to enter the small world of the thirty-fifth floor of the palace.

The 35th level temple world seemed to have crossed over from a noisy nightmare to the other side of tranquility. In front of him, palaces stood silently, so silent that even the air was frozen, forming a sharp contrast with the previous 34th level world with noisy ghost calls, as if they were two completely different worlds.

There are two living beings here. They are practicing and are surrounded by a majestic vitality. It seems that the male and female Yin gods are most likely these two.

The walls of the palace are covered with stone carvings and ancient carvings, each of which seems to be telling an ancient and mysterious story. The protagonists of those stone carvings are, without exception, the stone man in the shrine, whose image runs through all myths and legends. What is even more surprising is that there is a real statue of a god standing in the ancient palace. The statue looks like a solemn Buddha and a simple old farmer. Its face is blurred, but it exudes an indescribable majesty and compassion.

"Sister, look at the two Taoist children on the stone carvings!" Ji Ziyue suddenly pointed at the stone carvings, with a hint of surprise in her voice. Upon hearing this, Zixia immediately cast her eyes on the stone carvings, and saw that the images of the Taoist children on them were surprisingly similar to the creatures who were practicing, as if they had walked out of the painting.

Zixia felt uneasy. She carefully looked at every stone carving in the ancestral temple, especially the image of the Yuhua Emperor. The figure of the emperor appeared extremely blurry in the stone carving, as if shrouded by a layer of mist, which formed a sharp contrast with the lifelike Taoist child beside him. This contrast made Zixia feel an inexplicable chill.

"We shouldn't stay here for long, let's keep going." Zixia felt the ring on her finger gradually warming up, indicating that they were approaching their destination. She pulled Ji Ziyue and quickly passed through the stone gate of the 36th ancestral temple and stepped into the last small world.

Just as they were leaving, a Taoist child slowly opened his eyes, with a hint of doubt in his eyes: "Junior sister, did you feel it? That place has not changed in thousands of years since the Great Emperor woke us up, but just now... it seems a little different." The Taoist girl also opened her eyes, her eyes deep: "Senior brother, you worry too much. How can ordinary people decipher the array of the ancestral temple? Even if someone sneaks in, it is just to add another sacrifice to the Great Emperor."

"Good." The Taoist boy nodded gently, and the two closed their eyes again, continuing to immerse themselves in their practice, as if everything that happened just now was just a slight ripple on the water caused by the breeze, and it would soon return to calm.
As the 36th-story stone door of the ancestral temple opened with a bang, it was as if the gate of heaven and earth was gently pushed open, and an unprecedented sacred aura surged out like a tide, instantly filling the entire space. Auspicious clouds were like waterfalls, auspicious lights were shining, and the sun, moon, and stars seemed to be pulled by this force and resonate with it.

The essence of the dragon energy of the first ancestral vein in Zhongzhou gathered here, and thousands of immortal lights were steaming and scattered between heaven and earth, with bright clouds and colorful rays surging. The ancestral vein was not completely destroyed, and there was still a hole left, spewing out auspicious clouds, bright immortal light, and a stone fetus was floating there, with two small dragons circling around it.

“It is worthy of being the first ancestral vein, gathering the essence of a large domain from ancient times to the present. Even if more than half of it has been wasted, the remaining hole can still be called a treasure of heaven and earth.

Suddenly, an indescribable fragrance came to one's nose, and the fragrance was so strong that it almost penetrated into one's bones and soul. Zixia and Ji Ziyue looked at each other, and both saw surprise and excitement in each other's eyes - that was the breath of the dream-level essence!
This magical object is comparable to the elixir of immortality. Ordinary dragon marrow contains fragments of laws. When the cultivators in the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm seek enlightenment, if they use it to assist in enlightenment, they can achieve twice the result with half the effort and it has infinite magical uses.

Zixia's cultivation level in Beidou was already quite strong at this time. Her current realm had indeed reached the peak of the third small realm in the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm, and her foundation was extremely solid. The means commonly used by the outside world to suppress her realm were useless to her. Even if she did not practice, her realm would continue to rise with the passing of each day. It was time to collect some dream-level essence, which would help her speed up her breakthrough into the Xiantai threshold and enter the Xiantai realm.

"I gave you all the fairy tears and green gold just now! There just so happens that there are two of these dream-level essences, so whoever sees them can have one!" Ji Ziyue said, rubbing his hands.

"Okay!" Zixia agreed. After all, she was the one who forced Ji Ziyue to go with her, so she had to give her some benefits.

After saying that, Zixia waved her right hand, and a field that covered the sky and the sun instantly enveloped the entire space. The world seemed to be imprisoned, and even the void was trembling. She used the secret method in the "Source Heaven Book" to perfection. Under her control, the two little dragons gradually lost their strength to struggle, and finally turned into two drops of crystal clear, dream-level essence containing the supreme law.

As the two dreamlike dragon-like essences disappeared, the true extraordinaryness of the stone embryo gradually became clear. It seemed to merge with the surrounding auspicious clouds and rainbows, and with the ups and downs of the auspicious energy of the ancestral veins, it became the core focus of this world. The stone embryo had a vague shape, roughly showing the outline of a human figure, sitting cross-legged. Although the surface was rough, it could not hide the extraordinary atmosphere inside, which made Zixia and Ji Ziyue's hearts beat fast.

"Sister, is this...is this some kind of incredible treasure? It looks like a holy spirit that is about to awaken!" Ji Ziyue's voice trembled a little as she recalled the various rumors that Emperor Yuhua was still alive.

Zixia stared at the stone fetus, a trace of deep thought flashed in her eyes. "If the Yuhua Emperor is really not dead, it is not impossible. After all, although human power is limited, the world is vast and there are countless disasters. If you can really understand the secrets of the world, you can theoretically transcend life and death." She shook her head gently and continued, "But I can feel a trace of the breath of the ancient emperor left here. It is too ancient and profound, and it is beyond our reach. We should be cautious and continue to look for our opportunity."

The realm of herself and Ji Ziyue is still shallow, and the reason why they can come here is all thanks to the magical bronze ring. Facing such an unknown and powerful existence, they must remain vigilant and avoid unnecessary risks.
