The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 762
Chapter 762 Heaven Splitting Heritage Stone (2)
Li Qing walked towards the depths of the darkness. He was very calm along the way and did not encounter any obstacles.
This place was extinct, desolate and desolate, without a single sound. There seemed to be no danger other than the terrible thing hidden in the darkness.
The cold temperature had no effect on Li Qing, and the dark environment was not a problem in front of his divine sense. The process in the early stage was very smooth.
Li Qing walked forward alone, unhurriedly and unhurriedly, paying attention to everything around him. He tried his best to turn into an illusory figure and completely hide in the darkness.
This underground space was unexpectedly large. With Li Qing’s speed, he hadn’t reached the end after walking for several hours, and there was even no trace of the Heaven Splitting Stone.
The cold air in front of him was getting colder and colder to the bone. The cold air was like a knife that scratched the skin of a person.
It could be felt that the Yin Qi in this place was somewhat heavy. The murky and murderous Qi between heaven and earth gathered here, sealed by the ice for tens of thousands of years, unable to be released.
As the distance approached, the Bodhi Pearl and the Demon Ancestor Tree Heart in his hands became brighter and brighter, as if they were burning with heat.
At this moment, a strange voice appeared in Li Qing’s mind, “Save me… Save me… Save me…”
Just like that, this voice appeared in his mind, continuously repeating. The voice was intermittent, seemingly indistinct, like a ghost’s voice, causing his scalp to numb and his hair to stand upright.
“Who is it?” With a vigilant heart, he opened his eyes wide and looked around. His divine sense continued to probe, but in the end, he was unable to find the source of the sound.
However, the voice in his sea of consciousness had never stopped. It kept ringing in Li Qing’s mind.
Li Qing frowned, “Can’t you find the source of the voice? Looks like the other party’s methods are quite clever, you can’t be careless!”
“But a single sound is trying to frighten me? Isn’t that too much? Just ignore it. You just need to keep moving forward and leave once you get the Heaven Splitting Stone.” Li Qing forcefully dismissed the distractions and calmly walked forward.
Even though the unknown enemy seemed to have discovered his tracks under the influence of this voice, Li Qing still decided to follow the original plan and only search for the Heaven Splitting Stone, not intersect with that mysterious thing.
However, the direction of this voice seemed to be faintly the same as the direction Li Qing was walking in. Could it be that that terrifying thing was placed together with the Heaven Splitting Legacy Stone?
In that case, it might be a bit troublesome to obtain the Heaven Splitting Legacy Stone.
After a period of time, for some unknown reason, a faint ray of light actually appeared in front of him. Relying on this ray of light, Li Qing could finally see something from his line of sight.
Previously, Li Qing had not lit up the torch and was walking in the darkness because he was afraid of alarming the snakes. In order to minimize his sense of existence, he had never lit up the torch and walked in the darkness.
Moreover, he possessed divine sense, so he didn’t think that he needed to see things with his eyes.
Relying on this ray of light, Li Qing opened his eyes wide and looked around the underground space. Immediately, he saw a shocking scene.
In a nearby ice wall, he saw a dried-up face!
This scene was somewhat frightening. Even with Li Qing’s firm will, seeing this withered face and such a gloomy scene, he couldn’t help but be shocked.
Of course, he quickly calmed down. How could Void Realm experts be afraid of ghosts?
He quickly walked to the front of the ice wall and carefully observed it.
Inside the ice wall, there was more than one face! Instead, there were dozens of faces, all of them frozen inside!
Through this thick layer of ice, one could vaguely identify dried corpses that were frozen in the crystal wall.
“Strange, what’s going on? Why are there so many corpses all of a sudden?” Li Qing could not understand.
Such a remote place could be said to be an absolutely deathly silent place. Even living things did not exist, let alone humans running to this place.
Moreover, these humans were clearly martial artists with extraordinary strength. Just by relying on their natural environment, could they be frozen?
More importantly, Li Qing had clearly scanned the corpses with his divine sense, but he was able to see them when he used his eyes to observe them!
You can see with your eyes, but it’s useless to use your divine sense.
This was simply a ghost. Could it be that there was such a huge restriction on one’s divine sense in this icy and snowy environment?
“This is definitely not a normal phenomenon. Normally speaking, divine sense can discover a corpse sealed in ice, but why can’t it be discovered?”
“Could it be that these layers of ice are strange? They can block the detection of divine sense?”
“I’ve never heard of ice having such an effect! Could it be that this ice is not ordinary ice, but special ice? Is this a new type of ice that can shield one’s divine sense?”
Li Qing walked to the front of the ice wall and couldn’t help but stretch out his hand and lightly touch the ice wall. As a result, an extremely terrifying cold energy gushed over from the ice layer and froze Li Qing’s arm in the blink of an eye!
“There really is something strange about this ice!” Li Qing’s arm gently shook and the ice in his hand shattered.
“Normal ice can’t freeze Void Realm experts, but this ice wall in front of us can do this!”
Li Qing tried again. He stretched out his hand and slapped heavily on the ice wall. Then, he heard a cracking sound. Li Qing’s hand directly hit the ice wall, forming a large palm print that could be clearly seen!
At the same time, cracks appeared on the ice wall.
But it didn’t shatter!
In his eyes, such a situation caused even more turbulent waves in his heart. What exactly was the origin of this ice? It was only a crack that had appeared after receiving his palm strike?
Judging from this situation, it was impossible to break this ice wall without a dozen palm strikes!
Even the deep hand imprint on the ice wall was only able to produce the effect because of the special features of Li Qing’s palm. If there wasn’t such a reason, then perhaps even this palm print wouldn’t be able to come out, and only a few cracks could be created!
The hardness of this ice wall could be seen from this. No wonder these martial artists were frozen here!
Li Qing took out his Heavenly Saber and sliced open the ice wall with a single slash. He took out the corpses inside and picked up the spatial rings of these people. He studied the items inside, wanting to see what era these people were born in.
From the clothes these people wore, it was obvious that they weren’t modern characters. They should have worn them a long time ago.
Li Qing kept flipping through the spatial rings of these people. He couldn’t find the exact date, but he was basically certain that these people were at least characters from ten thousand years ago!
“People who have been frozen for tens of thousands of years? Why did they come to this underground space?” Li Qing was puzzled.
Moreover, his other question had not been answered, and that was, the voice in his mind had not dissipated until now. It had been ringing all this time.
Where did this sound come from?
The owner of the mysterious voice was clearly not in this corpse!
Li Qing couldn’t help but cast his gaze into the distance.
It seemed that this underground space wasn’t as simple as he had imagined.
“Forget it, what does this have to do with me?” Li Qing suddenly thought of this question, “Curiosity kills people. This underground space is not simple. What does it have to do with me?”
“I’ve already made up my mind not to intersect with the mysterious thing hidden in the depths. However, I almost made a mistake when I encountered these things and tried to explore their secrets.”
Li Qing understood this point and decided not to pursue it further. No matter how tempting the secret was, he had to restrain his curiosity.
He continued to walk deeper into the underground space, following the connection between the Demon Ancestor Tree Heart and the Bodhi Pearl, searching for the location of the Heaven Splitting Legacy Stone.
…
Shortly after, he found a pile of human corpses in the second place. All of them were sealed inside the ice wall, just like what he had seen before.
Looks like there are quite a few humans frozen in this underground space. They should be scattered all around.
Li Qing glanced at the place and didn’t go over to study. He walked straight into the underground space.
However, what was more annoying was that the voice in his mind was still ringing, and it was getting louder and clearer.
It sounded a little scary, like a ghost whispering.
“If I’m not mistaken, there should still be people alive amidst the corpses sealed in ice, so I keep sending out such messages for help.” Li Qing thought to himself.
“A person from tens of thousands of years ago, what is the concept of being able to live until now?” He thought of this question again.
“Furthermore, he was able to keep calling for help with this kind of voice, making it impossible for me to find any traces of him. It was directly transmitted to my mind. It can be seen that this person’s cultivation level is definitely not low.”
“Even if he is not a Dao Realm expert, he is at least a very powerful figure in the Void Realm!”
“Although Void Realm experts only have a lifespan of five hundred years, and Dao Realm experts’ lifespans are not infinite, they may still be able to survive if they are frozen in the ice and their bodies remain imperishable.”
“A person who looks like a Dao Realm expert, with such a great background, it’s even more impossible for me to provoke him.”
“Even if this Dao Realm expert is seriously injured and dying, it is not something I can afford to provoke.” Li Qing made up his mind to ignore this strange voice.
This underground space was incredibly large. Li Qing had walked for such a long time, but he still hadn’t reached the end. However, judging from the light coming from afar, there should be an exit. It definitely wouldn’t be a sealed space.
At this moment, Li Qing suddenly heard a strange voice in his mind. It actually changed!
‘”Turn left …” Save me … “” Save me … “” Save me … ”
Hearing this voice, Li Qing was immediately stunned. Left?
He looked in that direction and used his divine sense to scan it. As expected, he could vaguely discover that there seemed to be a huge ice wall standing there.
Looks like the owner of this voice should be sealed in that place.
“Senior’s origin is mysterious. Whether he is a human or a ghost is still unknown. Please, Junior Nu, do not dare to rashly come forward to save him!” Li Qing’s voice rang out in this empty underground space.
Of course, his words were meant for that mysterious person. Since this person could send a message, he must have the ability to hear what he said.
‘”I won’t harm you…” Another voice sounded, and it was feeble.
Li Qing shook his head and laughed, “I don’t even know who you are. How can I believe the words of a completely unfamiliar mysterious existence?”
He ignored that fellow and continued walking forward. Finding the Heaven Splitting Legacy Stone was the purpose of his trip. He would definitely not save this inexplicable existence, so as to avoid causing a whole body of trouble.
“Ahead … it’s dangerous!! Don’t go any further!” Another voice sounded, and his emotions seemed to be extremely excited.
Hearing this, Li Qing’s footsteps stopped and he immediately stopped. Is there any danger ahead?
“What’s the danger?” Li Qing asked.
“Save me … I’ll tell you again!” Said the man.
“There’s no need for you to tell me. I’ll personally investigate!” Li Qing frowned slightly and continued forward. Compared to the unknown danger, his intuition told Li Qing that this fellow was even more terrifying.
Since this fellow was so terrifying, why did he have to use this danger to offset that danger? It would be better to directly investigate that place.
“Young man… Why do you think I’m frozen here?” Said the man.
Li Qing stopped again. The mysterious man’s words finally caught his attention and reminded him of another question.
“Yeah, why are you frozen here?”
Even if this mysterious person did not possess the strength of a Dao Realm expert, he would probably still be at the peak of the Void Realm, right? It was impossible for such a powerful figure to be frozen here because of the influence of the natural environment.
It could only be caused by other dangers.
Then the question arose, how terrifying would it be to be able to freeze the danger of a suspected Dao Realm expert?
