Zhao Min has no other opinions on this.
"Junior brother, be careful. If you find anything wrong, you will immediately remove me and Zi Kun!"
After previous unexpected events, Zhao Min felt that it was better to be more cautious.
Eighteen days later, Li Yan stood on a cliff.
Under his feet was a stream of river water rushing down. This was the end of the river. When the water reached here, it fell into a deep pool under the cliff.
During these days, Li Yan went down the river alone. Although he met some monks and Demon Beast on the way, Li Yan paid more attention to hiding his whereabouts.
Along the way, I was casting "Stealth Night Concealment" almost all the time, searching for the "Haohan Stone" while sneaking.
Although the mana consumption will increase exponentially, it will eliminate many unnecessary troubles.
Coupled with his Divine Sense power, he can always detect the opponent in advance and avoid others easily.??
Li Yan looked at the river at his feet and sighed softly after a long time. Treasures are not so easy to find.
After all, clues are just clues. Even if he entered the river section where the "Haohan Stone" was suspected to appear several times, he found nothing in the end.
"If I hadn't accidentally obtained the body of the 'Black Cloud Frost Condensation Insect' this time, I would have been really disappointed with this trip.
However, one should not be too greedy. The function of Demon Beast is not inferior to that of the "Han Stone", and it is already a great destiny.
Nearly twenty days have passed. Under the nourishment of Pill, senior sister's injuries will be basically recovered in three or four days, and it will be time to go back. "
Li Yan Thinking of this, he cast his eyes towards the bottom of the cliff.
Next to the pool stood a broken statue, but from his angle, only part of the statue's body could be seen.
There was exactly one of the few things left behind by the "Soul Prison Clan" that Su Hong originally spoke of.
This broken statue happened to be at the downstream end of the river. This was what Li Yan and Zhao Min had planned for a long time. They searched all the way from the upstream and finally arrived right here.
With such a trip, you won't waste time going back.
Li Yan plans to carefully explore here for a day or two. If no clues are found, he will get up and return.
It is estimated that Zhao Min has not left the secret cave yet, and Zhao Min can come out and accompany him.
Now, with Shuang Qingqing's promise, Li Yan is no longer so nervous about the news about the Desolate Moon Continent.
It's just that he spent so many spiritual stones to get here, so of course he can't just go back.
There is only some dim light in the underground cave. If a person stays here for a long time, all kinds of negative emotions will continue to breed.
The pool below seemed to be only about thirty feet in size.
The water on the cliff continued to flow down and pour in day after day, but the water surface of the pool never filled up to the edge of the black stone that had been washed around and was as smooth as a mirror.
Li Yan speculates that the bottom of the pool may be extremely deep, and there is an outlet at the bottom of the pool that flows to other places.
</di>
The overall space under the cliff is not very large. The water pool almost occupies the entire area. Under the cold and damp water vapor, it makes the place look even darker and colder.
The statue stood flush with one side of the mountain wall, with a protruding boulder blocking it above his head.
If someone looked down from above, they would only be able to see part of the statue's body below its thighs.
Even the weak light under the cliff has disappeared, and there is darkness all around. In the darkness, only the sound of water falling from above is gurgling continuously, like beads.
When people are in it, powerless claustrophobia and depression constantly arise in their hearts. Those who are timid will suddenly feel inexplicable fear in their hearts.
Li Yan flew down expressionlessly, and the next moment he was standing in front of the statue.
He looked carefully and saw that a lot of green moss had grown on the statue's body, and the whole body was dark green, and it was no longer clear what its original color was. Judging from the clothing, the statue should be wearing a piece of armor, but it has no helmet. It is a big man in his forties or fifties.
Over the long years, the statue has basically integrated with its surroundings, more like a giant piece protruding from the stone wall beside it.
Although the statue is dilapidated, because his feet are right at the edge of the pool, the falling water and the surrounding moisture make the statue not look too old.
It just gives people a feeling that the world has changed, and I don't know how long I have been here.
The statue is only a head taller than Li Yan. His posture is very strange, and his eyes are looking diagonally upward.
The body is slightly tilted back, and one hand is half-flexed and half-stretched in front of the head like an empty fist. It feels like you are trying to "aim" at the top of the cliff through the hollow formed by the empty fist.
There are many potholes around the statue, like marks left by someone hitting it hard with heavy objects.
Only one of the statue's eyes is left. It is the one looking into the hollow of an empty fist and looking toward the top of the cliff. The other eye has only a deep hole left, as if it has been taken away.
At the same time, the statue is missing an arm and a leg. Li Yan can only see the only remaining big foot under the armored cherry robe, with the knees slightly bent and stepping on the smooth black stone.
"This is the attire of a mortal military general. If there was no deliberate exaggeration when the statue was built, this person must have been a fierce general in the army.
But the armor he wore was too ordinary. Many mortal dynasties on the Desolate Moon Continent had this type of armor. "
Li Yan observed carefully that this statue had a kind of vertical and horizontal aura, and this kind of aura was not unfamiliar to Li Yan. Marshal Hong gave him this feeling back then.
But what makes Li Yan a little unsure is that he cannot judge from the opponent's armor style whether the statue is from the Desolate Moon Continent.
He even remembered that some people in Black Devil Race wore armor similar to this, which only meant that the style of armor was too ordinary.
Li Yan has a black light on his hand
, then he gently placed his palm on the statue. The material of the statue was slightly cool, but it was still much higher than the surrounding temperature.
This caused a slight mist of water to rise from the surface of the statue, but the mist quickly merged with the falling water from above. If you didn't pay careful attention, you wouldn't be able to spot this.
Li Yan spat out the spiritual power in his palm, but the entire statue showed no reaction, not even a tremor.
Li Yan couldn't help but let out a sigh. Although he didn't use much spiritual power just now, it was enough to kill a Foundation Establishment monk in an instant.
Su Hong once said that this statue is very weird and the material is quite hard. After trying it myself, it turned out to be so.
Li Yan couldn't help but increase his spiritual power. When his mana reached 60%, the broken statue made a slight buzzing sound.??
Li Yan immediately withdrew his magic power. When he looked at the potholes on the statue, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Especially the broken arms and legs, which were forcibly removed.
Li Yan estimated that he could leave a crater on the statue, but if he wanted to break the arms and legs, he might not be able to do it even with physical strength.
"This material is really strange. Unfortunately, even if it is integrated into Dharma Treasure, it cannot improve the grade of Dharma Treasure, nor can it transmit spiritual power. At most, it can be given to Foundation Establishment monks to hit people directly."
Thinking of Su Hong's introduction to these statues, Li Yan also felt a pity in his heart, but then he felt relieved.
If these materials were really that useful, it would never be my turn to see them now.
Then, Li Yan used Divine Sense to explore the broken statue inch by inch. After a while, he slowly withdrew Divine Sense.
"Apart from the weird material, this thing cannot be said to be related to the Desolate Moon Continent. Its body is made of solid material. It is exactly the same from the inside out. There is nothing special about it at all."
Li Yan inspected the statue carefully for a long time, but he could not find anything else strange about the statue.
Li Yan is very confident in his Divine Sense, and he doesn't think anything can be missed by being so careful.
Just now, I didn't even miss the holes in the single eye that lost one eye and the dents on the body, and explored them one by one.
However, Li Yan is not disappointed.
This statue has stood here for a long time. It would be strange if something could be easily discovered at this time.
Li Yan began to look around. He felt that he should not focus all his attention on the statue. Most people must have done this before.
The river below is full of riverside and rippling gently. Looking from below, it looks like a well. Li Yan feels like he is sitting in a well and looking at the sky.
The surrounding mountain walls were dark and damp, and Li Yan began to circle around the pool at an extremely slow pace.
In a space of more than thirty feet, it took Li Yan a full two hours to leave.
</di>
After completing a circle, I still found nothing.
The next moment, Li Yan's body surface flashed with black light, and he stepped into the pool. Immediately, the whole person was submerged under the pool.
In Divine Sense, the surrounding water is very clear, but since there is no light in the water, there is endless darkness as far as the field of vision can be seen.
Li Yan Even with the spiritual shield, the cold air in the water still seeped in at an extremely slow speed.
This situation happened again and again when entering the river to look for the "Haohan Stone" during this period, so Li Yan was not too worried.
He sank all the way down, and when he had sunk about four hundred feet, his feet shook and stepped on the hard ground.
The water pool was not very deep, which surprised Li Yan. From top to bottom, the width of the water pool remained at about thirty feet, and there was no sign of expansion below.
Like a straight tube, at the bottom of the pool, Li Yan indeed saw the water flowing out along some cracks from one side of the stone wall.
Li Yan Divine Sense poked through several gaps.
After a long while, Li Yan only saw those gaps extending in all directions through the mountain, and then continued to disperse in different directions, and finally flowed deeper into the ground.
"Sure enough, there is no gain!"
Li Yan then stopped staying and quickly went up. Soon he was standing at the edge of the pool again, and the figure came to the statue again.
This time, he looked at the statue up and down with his naked eyes, without using Divine Sense. He wanted to use different sensors to detect it.
The only strange thing about everything here is the statue itself. Li Yan found nothing noteworthy about the pool, the river, and the surrounding stone walls.
In this way, Li Yan stood in front of the statue for half a stick of incense. At a certain moment, his heart moved, and then he immediately turned to the side of the statue.
Then he stretched his head in front of the statue's head, blocking the statue's sight. At this time, he also used the same gaze action as the statue and looked forward.
The most peculiar thing about this statue itself is his posture. His remaining hand is clenched into an empty fist, like a "telescope" used by mortal soldiers.
At this time, when Li Yan placed his head in front of the statue's head, he half-squinted his other eye, and the sight in his open eye penetrated through the center of the empty fist.
Finally, his eyes fell on a place below the cliff above, where a piece of water was falling and flowing.
Li Yan narrowed his eyes, and then Divine Sense glanced behind the flowing water.
However, just a moment later, Li Yan reluctantly took back Divine Sense.
Because there is no so-called "Water Curtain Cave" or other strange features behind the flowing water. There is a normal mountain wall behind the flowing water.
Li Yan and even Divine Sense entered the depths of the mountain, but still found nothing strange.
