The latest chapter has ignited the plot! Stay tuned for more updates.
Tiantai Mountain.
The setting sun dyed the entire mountain range golden red, and the evening glow burned on the horizon, a breathtakingly beautiful sight.
But at this moment, none of the people standing in the ruins of Guoqing Temple were in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery.
President Qin put down his phone, his expression extremely solemn.
He knew about the strange phenomena in Lu County, but had no time to pay attention.
After all, the strange phenomenon was caused by Master Li, and with Master Li there, the probability of something going wrong was extremely low.
What he finds most troublesome right now is Tiantai Mountain.
Just before the strange phenomenon appeared in Lu County, the entire Tiantai Mountain was covered by an extremely strong energy field.
The feeling was like a huge net covering the entire mountainous area completely, sealing it off.
The signal is completely cut off.
All electronic devices malfunctioned.
Even high-level cultivators like him and Daoist Xuanming were suppressed to be like ordinary people.
"President Qin."
At this moment, Master Xuanming, who was standing in front of the bluestone slab, suddenly spoke up:
"It moved."
President Qin walked over quickly.
The stone slab engraved with Buddhist sealing runes was now emitting a bright light.
The light was warm and soft, like the spring sunshine, making one feel drowsy when it shone on them.
But at the same time...
"roar!!"
"kill!!"
"ah!!!"
Faint roars, howls, and shouts of battle came from beneath the stone slab!
The voice seemed to come from the depths of the underworld, or as if it had pierced through time and space from an ancient battlefield, sending chills down one's spine!
President Qin's expression changed.
He subconsciously took a half step back, and his internal energy automatically circulated, forming a faint protective shield on his body.
"What...what's going on?!"
Master Xuanming did not answer.
He just stared intently at the stone slab, his gaze solemn.
Those runes are glowing.
One by one.
It starts from the edge and spreads towards the center.
With each rune that lit up, the warm and gentle light grew stronger, and the roaring sound became clearer and clearer!
"Senior!" President Qin said urgently.
Master Xuanming raised his hand, signaling him to be quiet.
President Qin could only suppress his shock and stand calmly to the side.
Time passed second by second.
at last.
The last rune lit up.
hum! ! !
A muffled hum came from beneath the stone slab!
Immediately afterwards...
boom!
Two beams of light shot into the sky from the stone slab!
The light was dazzling, one beam of gold and the other of silver, intertwined and soaring straight into the sky!
President Qin subconsciously narrowed his eyes.
He saw the two beams of light shoot up a hundred meters into the air, circle once, and then...
It shot off towards the west!
In the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the horizon!
President Qin was stunned.
Those two beams of light...
Where did you go?
He suddenly turned his head and looked at Master Xuanming.
"It's in the direction of Lu County," Master Xuanming said slowly.
President Qin's pupils contracted.
Lu County?!
What about Master Li?!
He was about to ask a question.
Click!
Suddenly, a crisp sound came from beneath my feet.
President Qin looked down.
The bluestone slab was cracking at a speed visible to the naked eye!
The cracks spread outwards from the center, becoming more numerous and denser!
Whoosh!
The stone slab shattered completely, turning into dust!
Beneath the dust, a dark hole was revealed.
The opening was about the width of a person, with neat edges, as if it had been cut out by some force.
A faint light emanated from the cave entrance.
The light was bluish-gray, flickering on and off, as if something was breathing inside.
"This is..." President Qin's eyes widened.
"It's the entrance to the secret realm," Master Xuanming said in a deep voice.
President Qin was startled.
A secret realm?!
Is there a hidden paradise beneath Mount Tiantai?!
"senior……"
After a moment of stunned silence, President Qin looked at Master Xuanming and said in a deep voice, "Now, considering the situation in Lu County... Master Li's statue of the Two Immortals of Harmony has probably truly awakened something."
Master Xuanming remained silent for a few seconds.
Then he nodded.
"That's what I think too."
He paused, then looked at the hole.
"But to know whether it's good or bad, we'll have to go in and see for ourselves."
President Qin nodded.
He turned to look at Zhou Ge, the head of the local Night Watch branch.
"Xiao Zhou, bring up a few drones."
"Yes."
Zhou Ge nodded and quickly went to make the arrangements.
An hour later.
Several technicians carried two large boxes and walked over quickly.
Upon opening the box, one finds four of the latest reconnaissance drones.
It is compact in size, has a long battery life, and is equipped with a high-definition camera and various sensors.
Most importantly, they can transmit signals through optical fibers, unaffected by ordinary electromagnetic interference or energy fields.
Technicians quickly assembled and debugged the equipment.
Soon, the four drones were ready.
Zhou Ge looked at President Qin.
President Qin nodded.
"take off."
Buzz!
Four drones took off in succession and then slowly flew into the deep cave entrance.
at the same time.
Outside the cave entrance, a portable monitor has already been set up.
On the screen, images transmitted back by the drone are being streamed in real time.
President Qin, Daoist Xuanming, Zhou Ge, and several key members of the Night Watch were all gathered in front of the monitor, holding their breath.
The screen was a bit dark at first.
The drone's searchlight turned on, its beam piercing the darkness.
As you can see, the cave is a downward-sloping passage with smooth walls, clearly not a natural formation.
The drone continued flying forward.
It flew for about seven or eight seconds.
Ahead, the view suddenly opened up.
The scene suddenly changed!
Everyone's eyes widened.
A huge space appeared on the screen.
The sky was hazy and gray, without sun or moon, but a faint ray of light shone down from above.
Below, there were ruins.
It was the ruins of a temple.
It is huge in scale, covering at least several tens of acres.
Remaining stone walls, collapsed palaces, broken stone pillars... are everywhere.
But what's most chilling isn't these ruins.
But...
blood.
Blood was everywhere.
On the ground, on the stone walls, on the collapsed beams and pillars...
Dark red bloodstains covered almost every inch of the area.
There were also corpses.
The monk's corpse.
Densely packed, haphazardly arranged.
Some lay in the ruins, some lay on the stone steps, and some leaned against the corner of the wall.
The manner of their deaths varied.
Without exception, they were all so tragic that it was unbearable to look at.
"This..." Zhou Ge's voice trembled, "How many people died?"
No one answered him.
Everyone's attention was completely drawn to the horrific scene on the screen.
Even through the screen, everyone could almost feel the intense, overwhelming stench of blood.
Everyone instinctively held their breath.
Although they knew that there was no way any smell could be coming from the screen.
But that feeling just wouldn't go away.
It's like standing on a real battlefield.
The drone continued flying forward.
The camera pans across various scenes.
Some monks lay in pools of blood, still clutching their monk's knives.
Some monks lay beside broken Buddha statues, with a vajra sticking out of their chests.
Master Xuanming stared intently at the screen.
Suddenly, he spoke.
"stop."
