Chapter 230
Chapter 230
At the back of the mountain village, there was a cave where a small temple was built to worship the Mountain God.
The cave was low and cold. It was not big enough for one person, and one had to crouch down to enter.
The so-called Mountain God Temple was just an earthen altar that was half the height of a person. It looked extremely shabby, and there were spider webs all over it. The incense used for worship had not been changed for a long time.
Hua Jinsheng sat on the altar and shook his head. "Master should be sealed in this mountain, but the entrance seems to have been blocked. If we rashly break in, I'm afraid we'll trigger the restrictions in the mountain. Aren't you an array master? I'll leave the task of opening the way to you."
With that, the chipmunk spread out his hands and fell asleep.
Red Bean smiled bitterly. "Is there anything I can do to help?"
"Why don't you give me a kiss to encourage me?" Zhao Mu stretched his face over.
Red Bean gave him a big slap on the face.
Zhao Mu wiped his face and walked away with a chuckle.
His laughter was a bit demonic. Red Bean felt numb all over and goosebumps appeared all over her body.
How did she meet such a shameless guy?!
After having some fun, Zhao Mu began to explore the mountain carefully.
Through his golden eyes, he could easily see the structure of the entire mountain. He did find that there was an ancient enchantment inside the mountain.
He circled the barrier in all directions and finally returned to the Mountain God Temple.
Sneaking to the deepest part of the cave, Zhao Mu stroked the rock wall. Divine runes invisible to the naked eye were released from his five fingers and penetrated into the mountain.
Tick tock, tick tock.
Zhao Mu's ten fingers kept bouncing on the rock wall as if he were plucking the strings of a zither.
Red Bean curiously came over to observe, but gave up after a while.
The mystery of the divine runes could not be felt by anyone who was not an array master. No matter how one looked at it, they could not understand it.
It had to be said that array masters were, in a sense, a profession that required talent the most.
There were countless Tribulation Transcendence cultivators in the world, but array masters could be counted on one hand. An array master was much rarer than a Tribulation Transcendence cultivator.
After about an hour, Zhao Mu's concentrated expression finally relaxed.
With a cracking sound, a crack appeared on the rock wall, revealing a dark and deep passageway.
Hua Jinsheng instantly woke up from his dream and rushed into the tunnel while yelling.
"Master, Master, I'm here to save you!"
The little thing even knew how to steal the credit.
Zhao Mu and Red Bean followed closely behind him and went in.
Not long after, Hua Jinsheng returned obediently. He followed behind Zhao Mu and smiled awkwardly.
The road ahead was complicated, and it had already gotten lost several times. It knew that it still had to rely on Zhao Mu, so it could only admit defeat now.
Zhao Mu was very familiar with the place. His path was smooth and unobstructed as he neared the core of the mountain.
Although it appeared to be going smoothly, it was actually due to Zhao Mu's formidable attainments in array formations and his pair of golden eyes. If an ordinary cultivator were to come here, they would trigger the array formations and restrictions after taking just two or three steps. They would not even know how they died.
Hua Jinsheng also knew how to set up formations, and was also good at spatial techniques, so it could understand how dangerous this place was.
Although it was a little embarrassing to hide behind Zhao Mu, it could save his life.
Not long after, Zhao Mu walked to the end of the tunnel and came to the door of an underground palace.
This palace was very special. It was made entirely of rock, and the entire palace was a whole. It was as if it was carved out of a huge rock.
Zhao Mu felt a strange fluctuation of Divine Sigil on the palace.
He roughly guessed that this palace was not made of bricks and tiles, but was formed by modifying materials using Divine Sigil methods.
And it was formed in an instant.
This method was extremely brilliant, far surpassing the methods of an array master.
The person who sealed the Destruction Deity here was definitely not someone to be trifled with.
But then again, the person who could seal a deity was definitely at the level of a deity.
"Master, Master, are you there?"
Hua Jinsheng roared at the top of its lungs.
Zhao Mu sent it flying with a slap. "Keep your voice down if you don't want to trigger the restriction."
Hua Jinsheng rolled a few times on the ground before it got up. It knew that it was being unreasonable, so it obediently shut its mouth.
Hong Dou closed its eyes and sensed for a while. "There is indeed an aura that is very similar to mine in this palace. I can sense her location. She is in the room at the highest point of the palace."
Zhao Mu nodded. He raised his hand and a gust of wind blew open the palace door.
"You guys wait here. I will go in alone."
There were many strange divine patterns in this palace. It was not a safe place. It was more suitable for Zhao Mu to go in alone.
With that, smoke rose from Zhao Mu's feet. Invisible divine patterns floated around him as they escorted him into the palace.
As soon as he entered the main palace, Zhao Mu saw a crooked stone tablet erected in the main palace.
The stone tablet was empty. There were no words carved on it.
However, Zhao Mu could see that there were runes formed by divine patterns on the stone tablet.
"The Unorthodox Dao gives birth to demons and evils, while the Heavenly Dao gives birth to heroes."
After translating the runes, Zhao Mu was shocked by the words he read.
Was the battle between the Unorthodox Dao and the Heavenly Dao essentially a battle between demons and humans?
This was a view that he had never heard of before.
Zhao Mu went around the stone tablet and continued forward. He arrived at the second level of the palace.
There was also an ancient stone tablet erected here.
This time, there was no divine pattern on the stone tablet. Instead, there was a picture engraved on it.
In the picture was an extremely ugly mutated beast. It had three legs and six arms. Its head was like a tumor, and its eyes were like fish bubbles. Its face was hideous.
With just one look, Zhao Mu felt as if his soul had been contaminated.
Even the Cloud Spiritual Barrier was activated and emitted a weak light.
This stone tablet contained a spiritual attack!
Although it was not strong, it was real.
No, more accurately, the spiritual attack came from the ugly mutated beast engraved on the stone tablet.
Could it be that this mutated beast was alive but sealed in the stone tablet?
Zhao Mu carefully approached it. His golden eyes could see through everything.
He was shocked to find that the divine pattern seal on the stone tablet was loosening bit by bit.
The strange beast was struggling. It wanted to break free!
A strong sense of unease surged in Zhao Mu's heart.
He was one hundred percent sure that if this strange beast charged out of the seal, he would die without a doubt.
In a moment of desperation, Zhao Mu continuously struck out divine inscriptions, frantically wrapping them around the stone stele, repairing and strengthening the seal on the stone stele.
After a few rounds, the aura of the stone tablet gradually calmed down.
However, the expression of the exotic beast on the stone tablet had become even more ferocious than before.
Furthermore, its gaze was directed at Zhao Mu.
That pair of terrifying eyes seemed to want to skin Zhao Mu alive.
However, Zhao Mu was not afraid.
"As long as I'm here, you won't be able to break free from the seal."
With that said, Zhao Mu waved out another divine pattern, and once again condensed a few seals on the stone tablet.
The aura of the strange beast on the stone tablet had also completely disappeared.
Zhao Mu continued to go upstairs.
However, after a while, he turned back and walked in front of the stone tablet. He took out a sack and put it on the stone tablet. Then, he packed the stone tablet and put it away.
Although this thing was a little terrifying, it might come in handy at certain times.
