MTL - As An Immortal, I Only Learn Forbidden Skills-Chapter 189 Astrology
Chapter 189 Astrology
Among the ruins, there is only a dusty stone palace lying quietly and intact, full of vicissitudes of time.
It is not tall, nor does it have any special aura. It is extremely inconspicuous. If the team hadn't rested here for a while to recuperate, maybe they wouldn't even look at it when passing by.
On the outer wall of the temple, one after another is engraved with complicated ancient characters, like a scripture, which is branded on the body of the temple.
"This is an extremely ancient script. It has appeared in many places in the Black Stone Ruins. There are rumors that it comes from the last era, but no one can decipher it..." Yuan Mo, a foundation cultivator from Lingcan Mountain, introduced it to Jiang Ming in a timely manner. Dao, with a respectful and humble look.
Since he has decided to survive, and has been planted with soul thoughts, he simply let go of his posture completely, wanting to make more contributions and fight for a chance of survival. As long as he can survive, any dignity can be restored...
"Cut... a group of illiterates!" Inside the storage ring, Hei Jian arrogantly yelled violently: "Back then, this was a word that even a child with a yellow mouth could recognize. The world is going down, the world is going down..."
This old antique from the last era finally got airy at this moment.
Jiang Ming's heart moved slightly, and he asked secretly: "As expected of Brother Jian, he even knows this kind of ancient characters. It's really amazing... Brother Jian, do you know what is recorded in the characters on the walls of this palace?"
"From the looks of it, there is a high probability that it is a body tempering scripture..."
Hei Jian said slowly, and soon finished searching the text outside the entire palace, and commented: "It's not bad, it's an extremely extraordinary scripture, which can inspire some impressive secret powers in the world to practice, but It should only be a basic chapter, suitable for those who are just beginning to practice... If it is placed here, it should be used to test disciples."
"Furthermore, according to the last statement of this scripture, there should be a follow-up chapter of the scripture inside this temple, but if you want to get it, you must first understand the basic chapter on the outside first, otherwise you may not be able to enter it rashly. What happened…"
"Brother Jian, please translate for me!" Jiang Ming was slightly delighted, and hurriedly said, it seems that in the Black Wind Demon Abyss, he didn't throw this guy away impulsively, which was indeed the right choice.
"It's a trivial matter!" Hei Jian said nonchalantly, he just took advantage of Jiang Ming's Thunder Sword, and now he is active in doing things.
Jiang Ming took advantage of this time to observe the stone palace.
The temple doesn’t have any windows, only the two stone doors on the front are wide open. The interior is dark and you can’t see anything. It’s like a black hole. Even if you inject spiritual power, it’s like a mud cow entering the sea, without any feedback…
"Have you sent people in?" Jiang Ming looked at Yuan Mo beside him and asked indifferently.
Yuan Mo showed embarrassment, but under Jiang Ming's gaze, he still sighed, and said in a low voice: "I sent more than a dozen people in before, but none of them came out. It should, it should be..."
"Oh? Who did you send them to?" Jiang Ming said casually.
Yuan Mo couldn't help but glanced at Wei Shouguang and the others before whispering, "They're all aboriginal warriors from Xuanguang City."
Wei Shouguang was not far away, and had been listening to the conversation between the two. At this time, he couldn't help showing anger when he heard the words, wishing to punch this old thing to death.
Jiang Ming clicked his tongue twice, but shook his head and sighed: "Then you didn't do it carefully enough. Since it is not possible to send warriors in, why don't you send immortals in for a try?"
Yuan Mo opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, can he say he dare not, those casual cultivators seem to be rotten fish and rotten shrimp, but together they are a lot of power, they dare to manipulate warriors at will, but For immortal cultivators, after all, they still dare not act recklessly...
Jiang Ming suddenly smiled, and waved his hand: "Well, today I'm in charge...you are allowed to send an immortal cultivator from Lingcan Mountain to explore, if there is any chance, then it will be his luck, and I will not take anything, how about it? "
Yuan Mo's face changed slightly, he hesitated and said: "This, this is not good..."
"What? Do you think the soul technique in your brain is for fun?" Jiang Ming said lightly.
Yuan Mo's face changed, and he couldn't say a word anymore.
"It's up to you to choose the candidate!" Jiang Ming said lightly: "If this great opportunity is obtained by someone, I will definitely be grateful to you..."
The four people in Lingcan Mountain are all pale at the moment. This is not a great opportunity, it is obviously a great horror. They don't think that in this weird stone palace, how can a cultivator be stronger than a martial artist...
Moreover, Zhang Shan asked Yuan Mo to choose someone, which was obviously breaking their hearts. No matter who Yuan Mo chose, the final result would not be a good thing for them...
And if this matter gets out, it will definitely be a huge blow to the reputation of Lingcan Mountain.
Yuan Mo looked at the other three with an ugly expression, unable to make a choice for a long time.
"Why, the four of you are still planning to advance and retreat together? It's not impossible!" Jiang Ming laughed.
Yuan Mo's body trembled, his eyes were full of struggles, and after a while, he finally said hoarsely: "Luo Hao, this opportunity is up to you!"
"Why?" The young male disciple of Lingcan Mountain jumped up suddenly, his eyes were so angry that he seemed to breathe fire:
"Why don't you two old things go? Why doesn't she go? I am the core genius of Lingcan Mountain, the elder of the next generation, and I order you to go in..."
However, the louder Luo Hao yelled, the weaker the struggle in Yuan Mo's eyes, and he sighed: "Friend Zhang, I'll choose him!"
"Very good, Fellow Daoist Luo, with your natural talents, you can definitely do it..." Jiang Ming smiled.
"No, forgive me, I will die inside..." The Lingcanshan genius named Luo Hao was so frightened that his legs trembled and his whole body was like sifting chaff.
"When you threw us aborigines into it, why didn't you think about whether they would die!"
Wei Shouguang couldn't hold back his anger any longer, and roared violently: "You monks from heaven and earth are the so-called evil cultivators..."
Jiang Ming glanced at Wei Shouguang, and there was a flash of admiration in his eyes. This guy is really a bit courageous, and he dared to curse at the monks of Lingcan Mountain.
It is one thing to be bullied, but it is another thing to dare to speak up and resist...
A moment later, Luo Hao finally walked towards the stone hall step by step under the watchful eyes of Jiang Ming.
The dark entrance seemed to be the mouth of a ferocious beast that devoured people, engulfing Luo Hao's figure and disappearing completely...
After only a few breaths, Jiang Ming suddenly frowned.
"Huh? Is this dead?"
Because of the existence of the soul-seeding technique, Jiang Ming could sense Luo Hao's mood swings, from the resistance before entering the stone palace to the fear when entering...
However, before Jiang Ming had time to sense more emotional information, he suddenly sensed that Luo Hao's soul sea suddenly shattered, and the ray of soul thought he had planted also completely dissipated.
A Lingcan Mountain genius who had perfected his qi training, just a moment after stepping into the stone palace, he died.
"It seems that this stone palace is indeed not accessible to everyone."
Jiang Ming stood quietly at the gate of the temple, waiting for Heijian to completely decipher and translate the scripture.
Yuan Mo and the other three Lingcanshan cultivators stood behind with ashen faces, not daring to make any moves.
Although they have communication talismans that can contact other monks of the same sect, under the deterrence of the soul-seeding technique, any emotional changes will be caught by Jiang Ming, and there is no chance to use them at all...
The three of them now only hope that this **** Zhang Shan can suddenly encounter an irresistible beast and die tragically in this ruins, then they will be completely free.
"It's a beautiful thought..." Jiang Ming could sense their mood swings, and probably knew what these people were thinking, so he couldn't help but sneered in his heart, wanting to wait for me to die first? I'm afraid I'm thinking a little too much...
Soon, Hei Jian finished translating the scriptures, and told Jiang Ming several times, and also made detailed notes on the meaning of some words that were difficult to correspond to.
"Astrology!"
Jiang Ming learned the name of this technique, and it is a method of drawing stars to temper the body.
"There seems to be some broken memories in my mind..." Hei Jian suddenly said with some doubts: "This exercise seems to have existed a long time ago. In the last era... or even older years, I seem to just listen to it. by its name..."
"So much background?" Jiang Ming was slightly startled.
"This exercise is very complicated, and it can attract stars, which is enough to prove that it is not bad... But in my memory, it seems that there are not many people who can practice it to become famous... I remember someone once said that even The complete star refining technique seems to have flaws even to the end..."
Jiang Ming frowned slightly, then shook his head, what to do with so much, even if there are flaws, that's a matter for the future...Practice first.
It can be recorded in a holy place for cultivating immortals, and used to test the skills of disciples...It is enough to prove its extraordinary.
He closed his eyes slightly, and began to comprehend this astronomy...
Several hours passed, and the sky was getting darker, but Jiang Ming kept standing still, and Yuan Mo and others dared not make the slightest movement.
Instead, those casual cultivators and aborigines, some of them turned their eyes, and took this opportunity to leave this place quietly...
Jiang Ming can sense it naturally, but he doesn't care. He has no reason to restrict the freedom of those who have no grievances or enmities with him.
However, Wei Shouguang and some aborigines led by him stood firmly behind Jiang Ming, without any intention of leaving...
Seeing Wei Shouguang, who is used to life and death, knows how to ensure personal safety to the greatest extent in this extremely dangerous secret place...
Wow~
Suddenly, around Jiang Ming's body, there seemed to be a gust of wind, and strands of unknown mysterious power from heaven and earth were seeping into his body.
"It's done!" Jiang Ming opened his eyes, and a ray of divine light flashed through his eyes.
"It doesn't seem too difficult... Is it because my root aptitude has been improved, and it becomes much easier to practice this secret technique?" Jiang Ming thought to himself, the feeling of becoming a genius is really good.
If you put it in the past, even if you can understand the meaning of this exercise, it may take several days to really get started.
Immediately, he tried to run the star refining technique again, and the light wind flowed through his fingertips, and strands of energy entered his body. Although it was only a drop in the bucket for his current physical body, it was a real tempering...
"Although it's called Star Alchemy, the mysterious energy between heaven and earth can also be absorbed and refined... If I get the whole chapter, maybe it can really improve my physical body to a higher level!"
Jiang Ming thought to himself.
This kind of energy is not spiritual power, but some kind of mysterious power that exists between heaven and earth. Although it is extremely thin, it seems to have a great effect on the physical body.
"It's time, let's go into the palace and take a look..."
Jiang Ming thought, and walked slowly to the entrance of the stone hall.
When Yuan Mo and the other three monks from Lingcan Mountain saw this scene, a trace of uncontrollable joy flashed in their eyes. Is this kid finally looking for death?
They don't think that this Zhang Shan can get any chance from the stone palace. After all, even monks like them from Lingcan Mountain, who have a lot of secret knowledge related to the ruins, have not been able to explore the secrets of the stone palace. This guy How is it possible...
Shusha~
Jiang Ming took a step and stopped at the entrance of the stone hall. The next moment, he slowly stretched out his hand and stuck it against the cold and rough wall, and the star refining technique started naturally.
buzz~
The stone palace, which was always silent even though everyone in Lingcan Mountain used various methods to detect it, suddenly emitted a faint light, wisps of starlight, diffused from the hundreds of ancient characters...
The entire palace seemed to come to life at this moment, and the words, like stars turning, were actually floating slowly above the temple.
Finally, all the ancient characters gathered at the gate of the palace, separated from the wall, and gathered in front of Jiang Ming to form a portal made of starlight characters, in which the starlight hangs down, which is extremely mysterious.
"This, how is this possible..." Yuan Mo was dumbfounded, unable to believe it.
They tried their best, but they couldn't make any movement in this temple. Who is this mountain?
Jiang Ming was also a little surprised. The reaction of the stone palace...was it too big?
"Brother Jian, are you sure this is normal?" Jiang Ming couldn't help asking.
"Yes, it should be fine?" Hei Jian was a little unsure, and then encouraged him: "It seems that this is the treatment of the chosen one, let's go in!"
"I believe in your evil..." Jiang Ming was speechless, but the matter has come to this point, and there is no reason to back down.
He settled down, took a step forward, and stepped into the portal constructed by the starlight characters.
Wow~
The scenery in front of him suddenly changed. Jiang Ming looked around, and found that he was standing in an extremely vast and huge palace. Xinghui, for a moment, made it difficult for Jiang Ming to tell the truth from the fake.
In the hall, there are extremely thick stone pillars, carved with various birds, beasts, insects and fish, and in the center of the hall, there is a dark stone tablet, on which the ancient words are still engraved. .
From the stone tablet, Jiang Ming could even faintly feel the vast and mysterious energy fluctuations, as if facing the starry sky...
"Could it be a fragment of a star?" Jiang Ming couldn't help guessing.
No need for Jiang Mingduo to say, Hei Jian just said: "It seems that the outside of the stone palace is indeed the basic chapter, and what is recorded on this stone tablet should be the main chapter. It's strange... this scripture is very important for guiding and refining star power. , It is indeed unique... But why does it feel a bit biased, how to use these star powers to exert the greatest power after refining the star power, but the introduction is a bit rough..."
"It's like a picture of a steed horse. The horse's head is well drawn... the horse's buttocks are finished with just two strokes!" Hei Jian commented: "No wonder there are rumors that this technique is flawed. It seems to be here... Even if you practice it Dacheng, it is difficult to display 100% of the power!"
Immediately, Hei Jian began to translate the main chapter of the astronomy to Jiang Ming, but Jiang Ming listened, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"This astrology...how does it feel that it fits too much with another exercise...?"
"Only focus on receiving and refining star power, but not on the use of it... and the other exercise requires the use of various heaven and earth secret powers to practice..."
Jiang Ming murmured in his heart: "It's as if... the whole article of alchemy seems to be the first chapter of that exercise... created for that exercise..."
