Through the practice system of the heavens that shroud the sky

Chapter 346: Exploring the Ancient Bronze Buildings in Kunlun Mountain

Chu Feng walked out of the desert area surrounded by blue mist and found the ancient Yellow River walkway. Looking at the area covered by blue mist behind him, he felt uneasy in his heart, but he did not stop and moved forward quickly along the river.

The sky gradually darkened and the last rays of sunset disappeared.

The blue desert was dotted with brilliance, and then suddenly, with a bang, all the blue flowers of the other shore bloomed and then withered at the same time in an instant.

The gorgeous petals withered, and then the whole plant began to dry up. They lost their color, exhausted their vitality, quickly turned yellow, and then broke, as if they had lost decades in an instant.

"boom!"

At the last moment, the dried blue flowers on the ground broke into pieces and turned into powder.

This strange scene is hard to explain.

They are like fireworks, brilliant for a short time, extremely beautiful, and then wither and turn into ashes.

The withered yellow powder fell on the sand and was difficult to distinguish in the twilight. At this time, the blue mist had long disappeared, and the desert returned to its original state, as if nothing had happened, and it was quiet again.

Chu Feng did not stay any longer, but instead sped up and headed towards the distance.

Five or six of them disappeared as they walked. After crossing many sand dunes along the way, they finally saw the shadows of mountains on the horizon. He felt relieved that he was finally leaving the desert.

"It's finally out!"

Before it got completely dark, he finally walked out and saw a mountain area where herdsmen lived. He also vaguely saw some tents below. The yellow light gave him a little comfort.

Chu Feng walked faster towards the lighted tent area, hoping to find a place to stay for the night. When he was still quite far away, he heard some noise, which seemed a bit uneasy, as if something was happening.

Chu Feng was somewhat alert and continued to move forward. As he got closer, he heard the panicked cries of cattle, sheep and other livestock, as well as the dull growls of Tibetan mastiffs.

Is there anything unusual?

Chu Feng quickened his pace with doubt and came to the herdsmen's habitat. He saw that the cattle, sheep and other livestock surrounded by the fence seemed to be extremely frightened, all of them were neighing and howling, as if something terrifying was approaching them, trying to break through the fence and escape from here.

Fortunately, many herdsmen tried their best to stop them and shouted loudly. Several Tibetan mastiffs, which were usually very ferocious, also crouched on the ground and roared at the livestock to prevent them from escaping.

But looking at the expressions of the Tibetan mastiffs, these guys were not only roaring at the livestock, but also seemed to be wary or afraid of something else. And Chu Feng found that many old herdsmen were praying along the way, very pious, kneeling down and bowing to the tall mountains in the distance, very solemnly.

The herdsmen were not surprised by Chu Feng's arrival, because outsiders often passed by and stayed in the herdsmen's tents.

After a long time, the surrounding noise weakened, and all the panic, fear and anxiety were temporarily suppressed.

Chu Feng found a herdsman's house with a vacant room, paid some accommodation money, and stayed there for one night to have a good rest and observe the surrounding situation. Along the way, it seemed that the ecological environment had changed greatly, which made him uneasy and curious.

Chu Feng washed his body with hot water and drank some fragrant butter tea. His fatigue instantly subsided a lot. He gave all the candies he had to the children.

The children had rosy faces, the red color of the highland plateau, and they smiled shyly, looking very simple and honest. After distributing the candies, they all ran away, looking very happy and satisfied.

Chu Feng was also happy to communicate with the children, talk to them about what the outside world was like, and ask them what interesting or strange things there were in their area.

The children were very innocent and answered everything Chu Feng said in detail. Until they heard that a blue fog had appeared in their area not long ago, Chu Feng became confused.

What exactly happened in this mountain area not long ago? This is the question in Chu Feng’s mind.

The old herdsman in the tent had gray hair, deep wrinkles on his face, and obvious worry. He looked outside the tent, staring at the mountains in the distance.

After inquiring, we learned that there was indeed blue fog here, lingering in the mountains, scaring many livestock. It is not known whether it was because of the blue fog, but the livestock became very irritable and wanted to escape.

Fortunately, this blue mist was not very thick, but very thin, much thinner than the thick mist that Chu Feng had seen that blocked his vision.

"Why are you bowing to the mountain?" Chu Feng asked. "That's the direction of the holy mountain," the old herdsman replied.

The holy mountain the old man mentioned is Kunlun Mountain, which is the faith and holy mountain in the hearts of local herdsmen. They need to offer sacrifices and pray to the emperor on major festivals and sacrifices.

In ancient books such as "Classic of Mountains and Seas", "Huainanzi" and "Records of the Grand Historian", Kunlun Mountain is known as a sacred mountain and a holy mountain, with the strongest mythological color.

Seeing that Chu Feng was very curious, the old man told him something about the blue mist.

Earlier, there was only a light layer of blue fog near the mountains, but some people saw that the blue was unusually thick in the direction of the Kunlun Mountains. The fog there was surging, crystal clear, and boiling. Later, it was like a beam of light, with blue light surging and blazing clouds, which was extremely intense.

It was as if there was a dazzling blue sun wrapped in thick fog, floating there. Although it was far away, it emitted light from time to time, like lightning. From a distance, it was extremely mysterious, with bright blue light, constantly dancing, and extremely dazzling.

Some very old herdsmen in the area often kowtow in the direction of the blue sun and pray devoutly. They believe that it is a miracle shown by the gods of the holy mountain, sending them an oracle, and gaining the prayers and faith of the people.

From the old man's words, Chu Feng could be sure that there were some amazing visions in Kunlun Mountain, and that there was the same blue mist he had seen in the desert before, and it was even more magical.

What exactly caused these miraculous phenomena?

He thought of a possibility, perhaps it was caused by an earthquake in the mountain. A similar thing had happened in a place in the past, where thunder often broke out in the valley and struck living things.

If a severe earthquake occurs in the mountains, it may cause extremely high abnormal magnetic field values. Under the electromagnetic field effect, the electric charges in the clouds and the magnetic field in the mountains will act together, causing charge discharge. Coupled with the aurora effect, the area becomes colorful, becoming a very special minefield, very different from the ordinary.

Chu Feng is not superstitious and thinks that most of what happens in the mountains is just a natural phenomenon.

But in his heart, he had an indelible desire to explore Kunlun Mountain. Even though he knew there would be unpredictable dangers there, he could not dispel this desire.

After staying one night at the herdsman’s house, Chu Feng left and prepared to continue his journey and complete his planned hiking trip.

However, on the way, he saw many local herdsmen discussing the miracles that had appeared in Kunlun Mountain, with blue light shining on the holy mountain and blue mist covering it. Some herdsmen said that it was the growth of the Vajra Bodhi tree, and that the gods were about to appear in the world.

Along the way, he found that there was a faint blue mist everywhere along the way, which was almost the same as what the herdsmen said. Moreover, the weather in the snowy area was unusually warm now. In late autumn, the leaves were no longer withered and yellow, but full of vitality.

Chu Feng, unable to resist his curiosity, finally headed towards Kunlun Mountain. He really wanted to know what was there, otherwise he would never be at peace.

Finally, Chu Feng arrived at the foot of Kunlun Mountain. The towering mountain range was like the backbone of heaven and earth, stretching in front of him. He decided to go up the mountain to find out what was going on, because the unusual movement of Kunlun Mountain had attracted his attention with a blue glow.

During the climb, Chu Feng discovered that there were signs of cracks on the mountain, huge rocks were lying everywhere, and the road was becoming increasingly difficult to walk on.

While climbing, he saw ancient carved words on a huge rock. After careful observation, he was stunned for a moment.

It was bronze inscriptions with the words "King of the West" engraved on them, and what looked like dry moss on the huge rocks were actually green copper rust stones.

This is a huge bronze monument!
After pushing the earth and rocks, he estimated in his mind that this bronze stele weighed five to six thousand kilograms and was an extremely rare and heavy artifact.

As he continued to climb upwards, Chu Feng saw a large bronze building exposed on the mountain. There were three bronze houses, backed by a stone wall, simple and quiet.

In addition to being shocked, he also tried to push open a bronze door. After spending a lot of physical strength and time, he finally opened the long-sealed bronze door, but to his disappointment, it was empty inside and there was nothing. Not giving up, he opened the other two bronze houses and found the same thing.

This shocked him greatly, and at the same time he was full of doubts: was this a building where the ancients lived or was it used for sacrifices? In those distant ancient times, how many craftsmen and how much effort did it take to build such a huge bronze house?

When he was about to reach the top of the mountain, he saw an even more shocking scene.

The top of the mountain was actually made of copper! After the soil and rocks fell down, the bronze texture revealed was amazing. Chu Feng was shocked. He had never seen such an incredible sight.

On a bronze cliff, he saw a small bronze-green tree that exuded bursts of fragrance. There was also a flower on the tree that was about to bloom. It looked extremely magical and charming.
