Chapter 609 Ancient Murals, Deadly White Light

When Lu Qing could see his surroundings clearly, he found himself in an enormous space.

This space resembles a grand hall, empty and deserted, surrounded by majestic walls, with the floor paved with ancient, massive stones, and a ceiling thousands of feet above your head.

The entire hall was filled with a vast and ancient atmosphere.

However, what attracted Lu Qing's attention the most was the numerous murals carved on the surrounding walls.

Those murals were also enormous, containing figures.

Each figure was thousands of feet tall, and Lu Qing, standing in front of them, seemed as small as an ant.

Moreover, each of these figures has a blurred face, as if shrouded in mist, making it impossible to see their true appearance.

However, their shapes are all different from those of humans, clearly indicating that they are not ordinary creatures.

The more Lu Qing tried to see clearly, the thicker the fog seemed to grow, and even the figures themselves began to blur.

There seemed to be some rule preventing him from seeing the true faces of those figures and exploring the contents of the stone carvings.

However, this only piqued Lu Qing's interest even more.

He immediately activated his supernatural ability and looked at one of the murals.

Not long after, a note appeared from the mural.

[The Stone Carvings of the Witch: Stone carvings inscribed by powerful figures of the ancient witch clan.]

This stone inscription records some ancient events that occurred among the ancient shamanic tribes.

The stone carvings have been imbued with the power of laws by a powerful being; without reaching a certain level of mastery, one cannot clearly discern the true appearance of the figures depicted within.

……

After reading the notes, Lu Qing felt a wave of disappointment.

He wondered if these murals, so mysterious in their appearance, held some secret or tradition.

The result turned out to be just some ordinary murals, which only recorded some of the deeds of the ancient witch tribe.

Indeed, not everything left behind by a great master contains a legacy.

After understanding the mystery behind these murals, Lu Qing's interest immediately waned.

However, he still watched it.

Although the murals were shrouded in mystery, Lu Qing was able to make out some things as he slowly examined them.

The murals likely record the origin of the Wu tribe, suggesting that they existed even before the world evolved and was still in a state of chaos.

Later, the Witch Clan emerged. Due to their immense power, they dominated for a time, seizing countless territories and enslaving countless living beings.

Then came the struggles of creatures who refused to be oppressed, which eventually led to the massive war between Taoists and sorcerers.

After this battle, the Witch Clan declined, while the Dao Clan rose to power and occupied the Witch Clan's territory.

The story of the mural ends here.

Furthermore, the fog obscured many details, making it difficult for Lu Qing to see clearly. He could only get a general idea of ​​what was happening.

Even if Lu Qing could see it clearly, he wouldn't believe that what was said above was entirely true.

These murals were left by a powerful figure from the Wu tribe, and the things described within them must be biased towards the Wu tribe.

Who knows how much of the content has been subjectively modified by that powerful being?

So he just treated it as a story and didn't take it too seriously.

After all, this happened in ancient times, and it's unknown how many tens of thousands of years have passed since then.

Now even the Witch Clan has vanished without a trace, and it's unclear whether they were wiped out.

Looking around, there was no one else in the huge space, and he wondered where the people from other forces who had entered earlier had gone.

Lu Qing began to walk around the main hall, and after a while, he finally discovered the secret.

In the center of the hall, there was a large circle with teleportation runes engraved on it, and the power of space was faintly fluctuating.

"So that's how it is. Those powerful figures all went to other places through the teleportation array?"

Lu Qing seemed to be deep in thought. It seemed that the real trial was in another dimension.

He used his supernatural abilities to check the teleportation array on the ground and found no danger, so he confidently carried Xiao Li onto it.

The next moment, light shone, and familiar spatial energy fluctuations enveloped him. Lu Qing and Xiao Li's figures disappeared into the hall.

When Lu Qing reappeared, he found himself in another space.

"Ok?"

As soon as it appeared, Lu Qing sensed something was wrong, and his body suddenly felt heavy and sluggish.

The gravity in this space is dozens of times stronger than that in the secret realm outside.

He immediately tried to activate the earth's magnetic field to alleviate the gravity, but found it was useless.

The heaviness of this space seems to originate from the level of rules, and cannot be resolved simply by the power of the earth's magnetic veins.

Having understood this, Lu Qing stopped making futile attempts.

Fortunately, both he and Xiao Li had strong enough bodies, so the gravity of dozens of times stronger than normal did not cause them too much trouble.

"Xiao Li, do you feel anything?"

Lu Qing asked casually, and began to look around at his surroundings.

"Not yet." Xiao Li shook her head.

"Aren't there any treasures nearby...?"

Lu Qing discovered that they were now in a small, self-contained space.

All around was a vast, desolate land, but no living creatures could be seen. Thousands of miles away, there was a mountain peak that seemed to reach the heavens.

"It seems we have no choice but to go that way."

Holding Xiao Li in his arms, Lu Qing used his movement technique to head towards the distant mountain peak.

With this movement, Lu Qing sensed something different again.

If one were to use Taoist magic to travel, the amount of magical power required per breath would be dozens of times greater than that required in the outer secret realm.

It should be noted that traveling in secret realms is already extremely taxing on one's magical power, but it is even more so here.

Even with his perfect golden core, he still felt a bit strained when faced with this kind of consumption.

However, he also discovered that physical strength did not require such an exaggerated amount of energy.

Immediately, Lu Qing withdrew his magical power and only used the power of his physical body to travel.

Although this method is slower, it consumes significantly less energy.

boom!
With one foot planted on the ground, propelled by a powerful force, Lu Qing's figure left a trail of afterimages as he rapidly headed towards the towering mountain.

After running for hundreds of miles, he suddenly stopped.

Not far ahead, a dozen or so people were sitting cross-legged on the ground, meditating.

However, these faces were all unfamiliar, and Lu Qing did not know which faction they belonged to.

"It's him?!"

The dozen or so people also sensed the commotion, and when they opened their eyes, they were all taken aback.

Lu Qing didn't recognize them, but they were very familiar with this person.

Just a few days ago, the other party had hunted down nearly a hundred Golden Core level beasts and then single-handedly suppressed dozens of elite disciples from several major sects, including the Lan Hai Sect and the Xuan Yuan Sect. The scene was still fresh in their minds.

Seeing such a fierce-looking figure approaching from behind them, the group of more than ten people were not only surprised but also became extremely vigilant.

They had all witnessed Lu Qing robbing Yu Dahai and his group that day.

They were afraid that if Lu Qing became unhappy, he would rob them as well.

However, they were clearly overthinking things; Lu Qing had no interest in taking action against them whatsoever.

After glancing at them a few times, he stepped onto the ground and set off again, passing them and hurrying forward.

Seeing that Lu Qing hadn't attacked them, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. They then looked at Lu Qing's rapidly departing figure with expressions of admiration.

"I didn't expect this one to actually get into the ancient tower. As expected, he has the ability to conquer the tower alone."

"To be honest, it's strange that he only came in now. With such strength, why waste time on those strange beasts?"

"Those strange beasts must indeed be hiding a huge secret, but unfortunately we are powerless to crack it."

"It's good to have a strong physical body. Traveling in this space consumes too much magic power. It took us a whole day to get here. Judging from this person's speed, he should be able to reach the Tongtian Mountain in less than half a day."

"There's no other way. We don't have many spirit stones and pills left. We'd rather be slower than waste everything here. Otherwise, without the support of magic power, the sheer weight of this space alone will make it difficult for us to move forward."

"That's right, it's better to be cautious and ensure sufficient mana."

After a while of discussion, Lu Qing's figure had already disappeared, and they were about to continue their meditation.

Suddenly, one of them changed his expression: "Did you sense anything?"

"Old Mo, what did you say?"

Everyone else looked at him, but the next moment, their expressions changed, and they all looked down at their feet.

They sensed a malevolent aura emanating from underground.

However, before they could react, the earth suddenly cracked open, and a white light flashed, passing over Old Mo's body.

Then they saw that Old Mo's expression froze instantly, and the life force in his body quickly dissipated.

The person split in two, falling to the ground, and the smell of blood immediately filled the air.

"What the hell?!"

Everyone was shocked and immediately used their magical treasures to protect themselves.

At this moment, no one dared to say anything about conserving magic power anymore; they were all somewhat panicked and watching the movements under their feet.

Old Mo was a powerful cultivator at the sixth level of the Golden Core stage, yet in an instant, all his life force was extinguished by that white light, and he died on the spot.

What exactly is that white light?

However, no matter how they tried to sense it, they were unable to discern the situation underground.

I felt a malevolent aura rapidly moving underground at an extremely fast speed.

Swish!
Just as everyone was on guard, the ground cracked open, and another beam of white light flew out from below, heading towards another Golden Core cultivator.

"go with!"

This time, having taken precautions, the Golden Core cultivator reacted.

Driven by his mind, he immediately slashed at the white light with the magical flying sword he had painstakingly refined.

Ding!
The flying sword struck the white light with perfect accuracy. A crisp sound rang out, and the white light immediately flew backward, finally coming to rest in the air.

Only then did everyone see the true nature of the white light.

Then, they were all stunned.

"This is... a praying mantis?"

However, it was a strange beast that resembled a mantis.

However, it was as long as a human arm and looked much more ferocious than a regular mantis.

Especially those two blade-like feet, which were unusually long and emitted a chilling light; just looking at them felt like one's soul was about to be cut apart.

Seeing this, everyone immediately understood that the white light they had just seen was the transformation of the mantis beast's bladed legs.

"Kill this beast and avenge Old Mo!"

After figuring out Bai Guang's background, everyone became furious.

The mantis beast before them was only at the early stage of the Golden Core realm, yet it had managed to ambush and kill one of their companions. How could they not be furious?

Immediately, more than ten Golden Core Realm experts unleashed their Daoist techniques and magical treasures, bombarding the mantis beast.

Faced with so many attacks, the mantis beast tried its best to dodge, but it still couldn't completely avoid them.

In the end, even with its tough physical body, it was torn to shreds by the furious attacks of the Golden Core cultivators, and after a miserable scream, it was completely annihilated.

"What bad luck! Sure enough, this space still contains dangers. We were careless just now. Old Mo died so unjustly."

A powerful cultivator at the late Golden Core stage looked at Old Mo's corpse and said with some grief.

The others also fell silent.

They have been in this space for a full day.

They had been traveling all day without encountering any living beings along the way.

This led them to subconsciously believe that there should be no danger in this space.

Unexpectedly, such carelessness cost the Mexican his life.

"Alright, now is not the time for sadness. Since Old Mo came here to explore, he should have been prepared to die. Let's collect his body and continue on our way."

That was the late-stage Golden Core cultivator.

Upon hearing this, the others also composed themselves.

Having cultivated to their level, they have witnessed quite a few life-and-death situations.

The death of a comrade was certainly saddening for them, but it was not enough to make them back down.

Just as everyone was about to help Lao Mo collect his body, their expressions changed again.

However, everyone suddenly felt that a large amount of malevolent energy was surging up from the depths of the earth, rushing towards them at an extremely fast speed.

"Oh no! That mantis beast has companions! Its screams just now were calling for its companions! Run!"

The Golden Core cultivator suddenly realized what was happening and roared loudly.

At the same time, he activated his magic weapon and quickly dodged to the side.

The others did the same, completely disregarding Lao Mo's corpse. They all frantically activated their magical artifacts and techniques, scattering in all directions as if their lives depended on it.

Just as they dodged aside, the ground they had just stood on exploded within a radius of several dozen feet, and a large amount of white light surged out, cutting through everything around them.

Old Mo's corpse was instantly torn to shreds, leaving not a trace behind.

After tearing Old Mo's corpse to shreds, the white light immediately rushed towards the other Golden Core Realm experts.

"It's over!"

When the Golden Core cultivator looked back, he saw at least several hundred beams of white light shooting out from the ground.

Dozens of men chased after him, their faces immediately showing despair.

"Xiao Li, what's wrong?"

Lu Qing, who was on his way, suddenly felt Xiao Li climb onto his shoulder and look back.

"I have a bad feeling coming from behind me," Xiao Li said, tilting her head.

"Not a good feeling?"

Lu Qing also sensed it.

However, due to the special nature of this space, their range of spiritual perception was greatly compressed, so he did not sense anything.

"What happened to those people we encountered before?" Lu Qing wondered.

However, after thinking about it, he ultimately decided not to return.

Since they dared to venture into the tower, they should accept whatever fate brings them.

He's not a pushover, but he's not interested in meddling in everything.

Besides, he's already a hundred miles away. If something really happens, it might be too late to get back.

So after a moment's hesitation, Lu Qing continued forward.

Running towards the towering mountain, Lu Qing finally arrived near its foot after about an hour.
