The Book of Heaven

Chapter 343
As for the topography of the sanctuary, if the steps surrounding the stone walls and the lush forest in the center of the pot are completely erased, Ma Zheng believes that he should be able to recognize this place at the first sight.

This kind of terrain is called a crater in later generations!Although it is not very common on the earth in later generations, as long as there is an astronomical telescope that can see the moon, it is very common. On the moon, because there is no atmosphere and creatures that can quickly erode the landscape, it has been preserved for tens of millions of years or even It is the trace left by meteorites from the outer space for hundreds of millions of years.

"This is actually a meteor crater?"

Ma Zheng murmured silently in his heart, of course he would not take the trouble to explain to Uncle Qi and others what a meteor crater is, but he was still a little puzzled.The landforms of some craters are somewhat similar to some craters. Ma Zheng repeatedly observed the surrounding environment to determine whether he was wrong in his judgment.

The reason why Ma Zheng thinks this way is entirely because the crater is not only huge, but the most important thing is that it has actually changed the surrounding temperature.It is said that this kind of situation occurs in craters, especially those in a semi-active state. After all, due to the large amount of geothermal transpiration, not only can the climate in a small area be changed, but also hot springs will appear in large areas around the entire mountain peak. , There will even be a column of clear or thick smoke for many years.

However, Ma Zheng has not seen these natural phenomena consistent with active volcanoes so far.But if this is a crater, why is there such an obvious difference in temperature?

"Don't look, without us leading the way, you won't be able to find the correct entrance to the church, but don't underestimate these trees, they are immovable obstacles!"

Of course, Uncle Qi didn't know what Ma Zheng was thinking. He thought Ma Zheng was young and energetic, so he wanted to find the way to the church by himself so as to show off his abilities. How could he know that Ma Zheng didn't think about it at all? this.

"Ah? Oh, it's hard work for Uncle Qi." Ma Zheng, who came back to his senses, scratched his scalp cooperatively, as if Uncle Qi had guessed his mind, and Uncle Qi was happy because of this, maybe this is old age It is a human characteristic that they always think that everything is under their control. If the facts match their imagination, they will be very happy. For the elderly, what they dislike most are accidents and surprises.

The sanctuary is indeed an unusual place. From its location to the way of entering it, Ma Zheng can see it clearly. Uncle Qi is indeed not lying. The small-scale forest in front of him is actually Contains some kind of "array" that Ma Zheng can't understand.

Because of the existence of this formation, it was difficult for Ma Zheng, who had just arrived, to find the entrance hidden in an inconspicuous place. It was a tunnel entrance that could accommodate four people side by side. In other words, the holy hall turned out to be underground!
I am afraid that anyone who hears the name "Sacred Church" will not associate a magnificent place in their imagination with a cave. In short, Ma Zheng followed Uncle Qi and saw a gate disguised as a stone rising slowly. After rising, I knew that I had completely misunderstood the place of the church in the past.

"Let's go."

The door to the real sanctuary has been opened. Uncle Qi and the other two old men looked at Ma Zheng calmly. There was actually a deep curiosity brewing in the depths of the three pairs of old eyes. Ma Zheng knew what they were thinking. So he showed surprise in a coordinated manner, "It turns out that the church is actually underground."

At this time, Uncle Qi took up the conversation with satisfaction: "Of course it's underground, otherwise what do you think?"

Ma Zheng felt a little contemptuous of Uncle Qi, but soon he was shocked by the scenery in front of him.

The underground is not as dark and damp as Ma Zheng imagined. On the contrary, when he walked with Uncle Qi and the other three for an unknown distance, he suddenly felt his eyes light up, and a huge underground space appeared in his line of sight. .This space is probably about ten feet high, and its length and width are astonishingly nearly a hundred feet. Some of them should have been rocks, but the artificially carved pillars connected the "sky" and "earth" of this space irregularly. It is also manually polished repeatedly, so it looks very smooth.

Neither these pictures nor the people living in them are enough to make Ma Zheng feel really surprised. What really surprised Ma Zheng is the center of the entire underground space, which is surrounded by crystal-like substances on all sides. A ball!
The source of light in the underground space lies in this ball!

Although this kind of brilliance is not dazzling, Ma Zheng still can't see the details of the ball clearly. Those brilliance are like shining filaments wrapping the ball, blocking Ma Zheng's sight of observing the ball.

"This kind of thing should definitely not be on the earth. Could it be the culprit that caused this crater?"

A meteorite that emits light and heat?More importantly, this meteorite should have fallen to the ground for many years. Could it be that it has been emitting light and heat for so many years? If this is the case, why has the energy not been exhausted?As a person who has been educated in science since childhood, when Ma Zheng saw this sphere of light that was almost as tall as three people, the first word that came to mind was - energy conservation.

According to the principle of "conservation of energy" in a technological society, matter cannot emit light and heat all the time, especially the light and heat emitted by this meteorite are not small at all, and its heat has even affected the crater on the ground, so Huge energy consumption, with Ma Zheng's meager theoretical knowledge of science and technology, can only think of one situation - nuclear energy!
It seems that only the extremely powerful nuclear energy can create a small sun!

But what does nuclear energy mean?High radiation and high pollution!
"Uncle Qi, how long have you lived here?" Thinking of this, Ma Zheng couldn't help asking.

It's a pity that Uncle Qi didn't answer Ma Zheng, because when they walked into this space, someone had already greeted them.

Those were the same three old men, their ages were also faded because of their martial arts realm, so Ma Zheng couldn't tell them apart with the naked eye, but in Ma Zheng's perception, the martial arts realm of these three old men was also above innate.

At least he is a warrior again!

At this moment, Ma Zheng finally understood where Ma Daogong and Ma Daoming's reverence for the temple came from.

Looking at the underground space within the entire line of sight, apart from elderly people like Uncle Qi, there are also different areas. Around the glowing ball in the center, there are many "young people" practicing martial arts. There is often a character like Uncle Qi, who should be giving advice on teaching. Whether it is teaching or learning, people rarely look at Ma Zheng, which shows how serious he is.

The one in the middle of the three old men who greeted him was bald, with two crouching silkworm eyebrows and a pair of red phoenix eyes on his face full of red light, his appearance alone made people feel extraordinary.

"My lord, Ma Zheng has already brought in."

Uncle Qi bowed his hands to salute that person suddenly, which surprised Ma Zheng. He thought that Uncle Qi had a very high status in the church, but the bald head was definitely not the head of the hall, yet Uncle Qi still called out "My lord!" ", which forced Ma Zheng to focus on the bald man. Who is this person?
