I'm in Love with the Kunlun Sword Immortal from 3,000 Years Ago/
Chapter 75: Clues to Chu Ling
Three days later, Lin Jingzhe and Yue Long returned to Cangzhou City..
Back in the city, King Huai of Chu hosted a banquet for him, but he was not interested. He just made it clear that he would not deal with it and left early..
On the fifth day after returning to the city, King Huai of Chu brought him to Chu Ling, which was located behind Cangzhou City, in the endless mountain range..
Cangzhou City is surrounded by mountains and a river. It is a capital city that is easy to defend but difficult to attack..
It's a mountain range that rises from the sky, unbroken, uncanny, steep..
A group of dozens of people set out from Chaotian Palace early in the morning and arrived at the foot of the mountain after ten o'clock..
Chu Ling body in the belly of the mountains, if you want to go, it is necessary to climb steep, thorny mountain road.
However, as Chu's tomb, there was naturally another safe and convenient mountain road. However, this mountain road was controlled by King Huai of Chu and several others..
The smooth mountain path leading to Chu Tomb was hidden on a waterfall in the mountain range. Dozens of people passed through the waterfall and went straight. After walking for more than an hour, they finally saw a hill that was slightly raised more than ten feet high..
"The entrance to Chu Ling is there..
King Chu Huai pointed to the hill and gasped slightly..
Lin Jingzhe nodded and didn't say anything, letting him lead the way..
King Huai of Chu left 20 soldiers to guard below, then led Yue Long and the other ten soldiers to climb towards the slightly raised hill..
After an hour or so, they climbed the hill. On either side of the hill, there was a team of tomb guards..
There were more than twenty people guarding the tomb. When they saw King Huai of Chu dressed lightly, they bowed down one after another."Greetings, Your Majesty.".
”
"Get up!".
King Chu Huai said,"Is everything okay?"
"Good..
They had received a message from the palace half a month ago that the king was coming to offer sacrifices to their ancestors, but what puzzled them was that every year, the sacrifice to their ancestors was held in spring in March.
"That's good..
The King said,"Stay here and I will be safe.".
”
Then he brought Yue Long, Lin Jingzhe and others to Chu Ling and said,"This is the place where the Xiang family's children sleep after death.".
”
The resting place?
Li Jingzhe frowned. Other than a few graves, there was only one stone tablet left on this mountain ridge. There were only two big words engraved on the stone tablet: "Chu Ling"..
Where is the real Chu Ling?
King Huai of Chu also saw the doubt in his eyes, so he explained,"There is still a space under this stele, only the seal can be opened.".
”
"Oh, my God..
”
"Immortal, I still need to kneel down to my ancestors before I can bring you to open the Chu Tomb..
”
"Okay, you do your thing..
”
Lin Jingzhe nodded. He waited patiently for Chu Huai Wang to finish his work..
King Huai of Chu brought Yue Long and the others to kneel in front of the stone tablet of Chu Mausoleum. Then, he bowed his head and confessed. He talked about future generations Jingyu and unfilial descendants coming to disturb these topics. Anyway, Lin Jingzhe did not listen carefully and did not kneel down..
After a few minutes, King Huai of Chu stood up and said to Lin Jingzhe,"Master, it's done.".
”
"Then begin.
”
Then, King Huai of Chu asked Yue Long to replace him and put the seal into a pit beside the stele..
Just as the stone pit was suitable for the jade seal to be placed down, Yue Long felt a force being drawn from his body. Immediately after, his eyes lit up, and a large area of light lit up half a zhang in front of him..
With a soft bang, the stele suddenly stepped downward, revealing a black hole the size of three people standing side by side..
"That's the entrance to Chu Ling..
King Chu Huai glanced at Yue Long and the commander beside him, and then said,"Commander Yu, take a few people in first.".
”
Although it was not the first time King Huai of Chu had entered the Chu Tomb, he was definitely lying if he said he was not afraid..
"Yes, sir.
Even if there were 10,000 unwilling commanders, they did not dare to show it back then. They could only take a few soldiers who were also dressed as guards next to them and jump into the dark hole one after another..
Then came King Huai of Chu, then Lin Jingzhe, then Yue Long and the other two imperial guards..
Lin Jingzhe only felt as if he had jumped into the black hole. He felt a soft force wrapping around him. Then, he didn't need to move. The soft force sucked him in..
Within a few breaths, he found himself in another dimension..
This was a huge underground space. The dome of the space was hundreds of feet high. On both sides of the rock walls of the space, there were dozens of huge oil lamps hanging. The light emitted by the oil lamps enveloped the entire underground space, and the light was still very bright..
King Huai of Chu led the crowd and walked in front. When they passed a rock wall, a rusty sword was inserted beside the rock wall..
" What's going on?" King Huai of Chu walked over, his face full of regret. He muttered to himself," Ten years ago, when I first met you, the cold light was so intense. How did you end up like this after not seeing you for ten years?"
Lin Jingzhe listened to his painful complaint and thought to himself," This sword can't be the immortal sword he mentioned, right? But judging from the quality of this sword, isn't it too different from the legendary immortal sword?"
King Huai of Chu cried for a while and tried to pull out the rusty sword on the wall, but the rusty sword was still stuck firmly in the wall..
" Huh?" King Huai of Chu smiled awkwardly." Reverend Lin, this is the immortal sword I told you about. However, he seems to have turned into a rusty appearance and is unwilling to acknowledge me as his master..
”
"There's nothing I can do..
"The forest is full of trees," he said..
"Well, I thought you had a plan.
”
"If I had a way, it wouldn't be called an immortal sword..
”
" Eh, you're right. I'll take you to read through the historical records left behind by our Xiang family. However, why are you so curious about our Xiang family's ancestors?"
"Prince Chu Huai, aren't you being too curious about me?.
Lin Jingzhe smiled and stared at Chu Huai Wang, saying: "Some things don't know, don't try to inquire, after all, what you want to know will naturally tell you, and I am only following the order of the teacher.".
”
By order of the teacher?
:.
King Huai of Chu only felt that this smile was cold. The words "I am under the command of my teacher" made him feel like he had fallen into an ice cellar. One person could resist an army. If the entire immortal gate descended from the mountain, the entire country could be destroyed in an instant..
"Reverend Lin, how dare I? I'll lead you there right now..
King Chu Huai's feet trembled slightly and led a few people slowly to the front..
"There's a trap here. Follow me closely. Don't step on the trap..
"The king of Chu Huai said as he led the way in front, and soon came to a cave..
"And you set up a separate chamber for historical records?"
The King replied,"Yes.".
”
"Oh, my God..
”
"Immortal, you read here. I'll wait outside first. Call me if you need anything..
”
"Yes, I do..
”
King Huai of Chu led a few people out of the cave..
Inside the cave, Lin Jingzhe was left alone..
With the help of an oil lamp, Lin Jingzhe flipped through the wild records on it..
These historical records and wild records seem to have been written by emperors, who carved their own life stories and what they saw and heard into specially made bamboo tubes for later generations to read.
Some of these bamboo tubes have been stored for hundreds of years, but they can still retain the records of those years, which is enough to prove that these bamboo tubes are not ordinary..
After reading for more than an hour, Lin Jingzhe finally found the records left behind by Xiang Shaolong, the ancestor of Chu State. He saw that the records recorded that they obtained this mirror in an ancient tomb. At that time, there were three people who entered the ancient tomb with the ancestor of Chu State. However, only one person was mentioned in the records, and that person was the Dao Master who founded Liluo Sect..
Lilo pie?
Lin Jingzhe suddenly remembered the conversation between Daoist Gu and Wang Lu. They said that there was a Li Luo Sect at the ends of the earth. Could that Li Luo Sect be the Li Luo Sect mentioned here?.
" Looks like I have to go to the ends of the earth. But where is the ends of the earth? Where is the Sea of Unsight?"
Lin Jingzhe sighed. He thought that the secret of the bronze mirror would be revealed after entering the tomb of Chu. Who knew that it would be like a doll, tempting you to choose the next step by step. Who knew that when you arrived at Liluo Sect, the grave robber who dug the tomb with the ancestors of Chu was still alive?.
Besides, even if that grave robber was alive because he practiced the immortal technique, he might not tell you. Even if he really told you, that ancient tomb was destroyed long ago..
But now it's the only clue. This place, South Lookout Sea, has to be visited..
It's really a headache, but what you promised Miss Lin, try your best to fulfill it for her.
Since they had found the clue to the next step, it was meaningless to stay here. Therefore, Lin Jingzhe called King Huai of Chu, and a few people wanted to leave Chu Ling..
Before leaving, King Huai of Chu pulled out the rusty immortal sword again, but the immortal sword ignored him. No matter how hard he tried, it still didn't move..
King Huai of Chu sighed and reluctantly turned around to leave. Since the immortal sword did not want to talk to him, he had no choice. He could not stay in the mausoleum forever and be entangled, right?.
They followed the path they came from, exited Chuling, returned to the hill, and then descended the hill along the mountain road. They followed the path they came from and walked through many paths. It took them about four hours to return to Chaotian Palace..
It was already dark when he returned to Chaotian Palace. King Huai of Chu wanted to host a banquet for Lin Jingzhe, but he declined. At this time, he needed peace..
Lin Jingzhe, who was about to leave immediately, suddenly remembered the three streams of light that had descended from the sky a few days ago. Then, he asked," Prince Chu Huai, have you met any other disciples from other immortal sects recently?"
" Other immortal sect disciples visited? When do you mean?"
"The night you told me the border was urgent,.
”
"Let me think about it.
The king of Chu Huai was respectful to him at this time, and he had to respond to his requests..
"No, I don't..
King Chu Huai thought about it and said without hesitation,"No!".
" No?" Lin Jingzhe was stunned for a moment. Could it be that the three streams of light that day were not heading towards Cangzhou City? But the three streams of light clearly flew towards Cangzhou City..
" Reverend Lin, are you preparing to leave Cangzhou City?" King Huai of Chu asked..
"The war has been put down, Song has surrendered, and there is no point for me to stay here..
”
"Are you coming back?"
"Not sure.
”
"Oh, my God..
King Huai of Chu was dejected, but he remembered that Wang Aiqing's son was cultivating in the immortal gate, and his heart could not help but feel gratified. Chu was also a country protected by the immortal gate..
Lin Jingzhe didn't care about the change in his expression, so he bowed and said,"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable", ready to leave..
But at this time, Chu Huai Wang pointed to the sky, surprised Yi: "Meteor? Good bright meteor.
”
Everyone looked over and saw a dazzling meteor falling from the eastern sky. Then, it flashed and disappeared into the darkness..
"That's the direction of the mountains..
”
" That meteor didn't fall into the mountain range, did it?"
"It's possible. That meteor should be an extraterrestrial meteorite..
”
" The meteor is so dazzling. It can't have directly ignited that mountain range, right?"
"Shut your mouth!.
”
" Hey, why is that black sky suddenly so bright? There's also thick smoke?.
.
.
”
"Oh, whose crow mouth was that just now? The place where the meteor landed really lit up a large mountain forest..
”
"Where is Reverend Lin?"
While the officials were busy thinking about countermeasures, King Huai of Chu, Yue Long, and Grand Tutor Wang looked at where Lin Jingzhe had just stood. The young Taoist priest in purple robes had long disappeared..
