Pawn Crossing the River

Chapter 8 Snake Eyes

Qi Xuansu relied on his memory and Wu Fu's powerful functions to accurately find the Sun Temple.

At this time, the temple was completely shrouded in shadow, making this supposedly magnificent temple appear pitch black.

The shadow also shrouded the door of the temple, as if a lot of talismans and ropes were added to the door, which indirectly strengthened the door.

However, Qi Xuansu didn't reason with these ghosts. He pinned the "Pure Bodhi" on his waist, directly stretched out his hands to press on the door, and relied on the warrior's unparalleled strength to push open the door of the temple. Those snake-like The shadows were burned away by Qi Xuansu's warrior blood.

Qi Xuansu walked into the temple majestically, waving his hands casually to disperse the swarming shadows, just like sweeping away those annoying spider webs. However, it is also conceivable that if the visitor is not Qi Xuansu, but some innate person, or an ordinary heavenly person, it will still be very difficult to encounter the current situation.

The layout of this temple is no different from ordinary temples. Because it is built on an overseas island, it is not spectacular or gorgeous. The first thing that catches the eye is a statue of Quetzalcoatl, or the Sun God, Kuku. Erkan.

Quetzalcoatl, as its name suggests, is a long snake with wings. In a sense, this snake is somewhat similar to the Eastern dragon, but without claws and horns.

Of course, Kukulkan also has a human form, but he doesn't use it often. He prefers the image of Quetzalcoatl, and most of the statues are of Quetzalcoatl. This is not surprising. The former God Lu Wu also liked to face the world in animal form, rather than human form. This is their true body.

If you look at it from an Eastern perspective, this should be the result of demon cultivation. It seems to be no different from Tamamo Mae and the Daitengu.

Perhaps when the image of Quetzalcoatl spread faith in the early stage, it would bring some positive benefits due to reasons such as curiosity, terror, and awe, but it would also restrict its further development to a certain extent. In the end, if you want to become a righteous god with a wide range of influence, you still have to return to human form.

What makes you successful will also become the shackles that restrict you in the future.

This is like the "Hua Hu Jing", which was originally written by Buddhism. Buddhism came to the west and wrote this "Hua Hu Jing" in order to integrate into the Central Plains. Later, when Buddhism gained a foothold, it began to cut off and downplay the existence of the "Hua Hu Jing". Instead, Taoism began to spread the "Hua Hu Jing" on a large scale, allowing today's Taoism to have legal principles that surpass those of Buddhism.

You said it yourself, you wrote it yourself, no one else forced you. It's not that simple whether you want to admit the benefits or not.

Around the statue of Quetzalcoatl, there is a shadow so thick that it cannot be broken away. There are also some servants of the shadow hidden inside, which can also be called Yasiel.

Half human, half beast, half human and half demon, he is very agile and can perfectly integrate with the shadows. He moves silently with the shadows and launches sneak attacks. He is a natural assassin.

But even if Qi Xuansu can't see with his eyes and ears,

Smell, meaning but not feeling, he also has the intuition of "Magic Sword". All these sneak attacks by Yasir were blocked by him. Because Juesheng Church already had specimens, he had no intention of holding back and directly used his fists to kill them. Crush them, and then these fragments of Yasir’s corpse will return to the shadows.

As the Western priests often say, dust to dust, dust to dust.

Qi Xuansu walked under the statue of Quetzalcoatl and looked up at the statue. Because his perception was greatly limited here, he could not tell whether the shadow came from the statue of Quetzalcoatl, but he felt a strong feeling in his heart. He had the urge to smash the statue of the god, but fortunately, the radiance of the "Pure Bodhi" around his waist circulated, and a sense of coolness came over him, helping him resist this thought.

This surprised Qi Xuansu. These shadows could not suppress his sanity, but they would invisibly affect some of his thoughts. After all, Qi Xuansu did not completely shrink his soul into the "Heart of the Immortality Stone", which meant that Qi Xuansu had to give up most of the control over his body, just like when the Purple Light True Monarch descended. If you don't shrink it completely, you will inevitably be affected.

It's really strange here.

Fortunately, Qi Xuansu had prepared the "Pure Bodhi" in advance. For Qi Xuansu, whether the knife could cut people was secondary, but the ability to protect himself was the most important.

Qi Xuansu did not break the statue after all, but walked around the statue.

The statue stands on a high platform. This pedestal-like platform is as tall as a person. It is square and square, with different carvings and murals on all sides, which seems to tell a story.

Qi Xuansu didn't know much about these myths and stories, and didn't want to delve into them, so he directly used the auxiliary spell "Insight Through Walls" in "Taiping Yashu", which can break through all illusions and even all kinds of physical barriers, and see hidden things. .

This spell may not be more advanced than the martial artist's true pupil or the banished immortal's "immortal gazing energy", but it is specialized in the art. The martial artist's true pupil uses reality to break the void, while the alchemist's method is just the opposite, using the void to break the void. Reality. To deal with the current situation, it is obvious that the alchemist's spells are more professional than the other two.

Qi Xuansu quickly found the mechanisms on the four murals. After pressing them respectively, the mural behind the statue moved slowly, revealing a portal - the high platform holding the statue of Quetzalcoatl turned out to be hollow.

Qi Xuansu hesitated slightly and walked into the dark portal.

Behind the portal is not a downward passage, but endless darkness.

Qi Xuansu seemed to be in the void. When he looked back, the portal he came in from had completely disappeared.

Qi Xuansu's expression became solemn.

Although he is very close to a pseudo-immortal, he is not a pseudo-immortal after all. If he really encounters a god descending

One type of means may not be able to escape unscathed.

It’s hard to say what Kukulkan’s strength is.

The Holy Apostles were rampant, and so many ancient gods were beaten to death by them, and Itsumna was no exception. Ixichel became two people, but Kukulkan survived.

Even if Kukulkan is very cunning and good at conserving strength, without the support of strength, he cannot avoid the conquests of the Holy Apostles.

Kukulkan survived. Not only did he survive, he also stole the powers of the two sun gods one after another and became the leader of the surviving ancient gods. Therefore, his divine power should not be as simple as that of an ordinary immortal, and is likely to be on par with the three masters.

The realm of the third master was called the Wonderful Realm in the past, but now the Taoist sect has changed its view and is called the One-Calamity Immortal. Because Miaojing's statement can only summarize heavenly immortals and earthly immortals, but cannot generalize other inheritances, it is far less accurate than the statement of quasi-one-kalpa immortals.

Of course, the quasi-one-kalpa immortals are not as good as the real one-kalpa immortals, but compared with ordinary immortals, they still have considerable advantages. When attacking Ise Shrine, the national master faced off against the dragons who were also comparable to immortals with one man and one sword. The situation was It was completely one-sided. In the end, the imperial master killed the dragon and he was still unscathed.

Also an immortal. When Qi Xuansu faced off against Chen Shuhua, he might be able to use various means to make a few splashes. Didn't Lao Lin save his life under Chen Shuhua's sword? But if Qi Xuansu faced the imperial master, it would be a matter of one sword, and he would not be able to fight back in any sense.

It can be seen that there are differences between immortals.

If Kukulkan had the strength of a quasi-one-kalpa sage, and was in his prime and intact, then he might be more terrifying than Izanozun, who had been sealed away for many years.

At this moment, not far from Qi Xuansu, two lights like will-o'-the-wisps lit up in the darkness, erratic.

Qi Xuansu looked towards the two groups of ghost fires, blessing his eyes with his body and soul, intending to see through the illusion.

Then he discovered that it was indeed not a will-o'-the-wisp, but two eyes with erect pupils, a bit like snake pupils.

As for the rest, Qi Xuansu's true pupils cannot be seen more clearly.

The true pupil also belongs to the category of the hundred aspects of human beings and immortals, and is the true pupil of the candle dragon.

Maybe it's because Qi Xuansu can't get good at training, or maybe because Qi Xuansu's martial arts inheritance hasn't broken through to the realm of pseudo-immortal. In short, he can't completely see through the illusion, and can only see a vague outline like a long snake.

Qi Xuansu snorted coldly, clenched his fist, and launched his killing move.

The concussive void created by the martial artist.

But once again, it was beyond Qi Xuansu's expectation that the punch, which was enough to seriously injure or even kill the Infinite Heavenly Being, seemed to fall into the air and did not shock anything substantial - darkness obviously could not be regarded as substance.

Instead, those snake eyes seemed to be frightened. They blinked at first, and then started to move towards him as if they were irritated.

Qi Xuansu moved over.

As the snake pupil gets closer and closer, the snake pupil gets bigger and bigger.

At first, they were just like two will-o'-the-wisps. In the blink of an eye, they were like two lanterns. For a moment, it was like the sun and the moon.

The huge body that cannot be fully seen behind the snake eyes is naturally getting bigger and bigger.

Even if Qi Xuansu couldn't see clearly, he could still feel it.

At first, it was like a giant python. In the blink of an eye, he was like a giant dragon. For a moment, it was like the Great Wall, filling Qi Xuansu's vision. Even Qi Xuansu's vision could not accommodate this long and magnificent city wall.

The snake eyes and the snake body are getting bigger and bigger without any end.

The strange thing is that if there really is such a giant, then Qi Xuansu's punch should not have missed in any case, but Qi Xuansu's punch hit the empty space.

There is a proverb in the West, called the elephant in the room, which means that there is an elephant in the room, but everyone avoids talking about such obvious things. Later, it was extended to mean that the public tacitly understands certain shocking facts. Maintain collective silence.

If there is really an elephant in the room, then of course you can treat it as if you haven’t seen it subjectively, or you can avoid talking about it, but objectively, the elephant is real, it can be seen and touched, and it can also be ignored. People trampled to death.

The situation now is just the opposite.

Qi Xuansu could subjectively see a "

"Elephant", but objectively it does not touch the "Elephant".

Does this mean "elephant" does not exist?

Qi Xuansu's mind was racing, and he believed that everything in front of him might be false, but his body refused to obey his orders, as if he was frozen in fear of the power of the huge black shadow.

A kind of fear arises spontaneously. This fear is not an acquired fear, but an innate fear, just like the blood suppression of a prey when facing the predator. As the saying goes, it is engraved in the bones.

But Qi Xuansu managed to maintain some of his sanity because of the protection of "Heart of Immortality Stone" and "Pure Bodhi".

So his current state is that he is afraid but not afraid. His entire consciousness seems to be torn in two. One is dominated by emotions and falls into chaos, while the other is watching with cold eyes, but there is nothing to do. The body was trapped by the suppression of blood and the separation of the two consciousnesses, and lost control.

This is a strange thing that has never happened since Qi Xuansu received the martial arts inheritance.

Wu Fu spread his body and soul all over his body, just like setting up a system of counties and counties to control the place. As a result, now that the center has failed, there is only one possibility. The situation at this time has exceeded Qi Xuansu's realm of cultivation.

Although the martial artist can restrain the alchemist, the martial artist in the stage of returning to his true form is no match for the heavenly and human alchemist. In other words, Qi Xuansu was defeated by others' skill.
