Chapter 468: Digging Up a Living Person

Xie Lingyun had never cultivated magic power, nor had he seen the earthly immortal road of cultivating dragon veins, so of course he would not understand the formation of this kind of jade bone. Zhang Chen practiced in Wuzhuang Temple for ten years. Although he had never practiced a specific method, he had already mastered the key points of Wuzhuang Temple.

The monks in Wuzhuang Temple collect the energy of the earth and use it to replace the mysterious energy between heaven and earth to complete their cultivation. This breath from the earth can transform people into jade bones and gradually become contaminated with the characteristics of the earth.

After practicing many techniques, there will be strange phenomena and special features. The practice of Wuzhuang Temple is the best among them.

"We can take these bones out and grind them into medicine." Xie Lingyun stared at the bones on the ground with shining eyes.

Zhang Chen shuddered when he heard this. Using human bones as medicine? Are you crazy?

"Human bones can be used as medicine?" Zhang Chen asked in disbelief.

Xie Lingyun glared at Zhang Chen and said, "What's the big deal? Tiger bones and dragon bones can be used as medicine, not to mention the jade bones refined by practitioners. They contain the essence of heaven and earth, so of course they can also be used as medicine."

Zhang Chen shook his head. He had no way of swallowing human bones. Of course, if it was the bones of an immortal, he wouldn't mind trying it to see if it could make him stronger.

Zhang Chen ignored Xie Lingyun who was pondering the jade bone, but raised his head to look at the palace in the distance, and walked towards the next palace to see if there were any treasures left.

In the past, there were countless powerful monks in Wuzhuang Temple. There were four monks of the twelfth level, and there were countless monks below the twelfth level.

He wanted to find clues to trace the truth of that year from the ruins of Wuzhuang Temple.

Soon a ruin was cleared and Zhang Chen found some clothes and a few swords in the ruins. Unfortunately, the clothes had been weathered and the swords had rotted, making them of little use.

Zhang Chen picked up his sword and saw that the precious sword that once could cut hair with a blow and split mountains and rocks had turned into rusty scrap iron.

No matter how powerful the mystery is, it cannot withstand the power of the passage of time.

Zhang Chen threw the hilt of the sword on the ground, then walked away and continued to clean up the ruins.

They passed by one palace after another and the ruins were constantly cleared out, but unfortunately there was not much to gain.

Zhang Chen felt somewhat disappointed, so he simply stopped wasting energy and went straight to the backyard to see what was in the ancestor's backyard. If there was anything that could withstand the passage of time, it would probably be the things left behind by the ancestor.

"Sister is gone, stop studying those dead people's stuff." Zhang Chen shouted to Xie Lingyun.

Xie Lingyun looked at Zhang Chen's receding back and hurriedly followed him: "Did you gain anything?"

Zhang Chen shook his head upon hearing this: "Nothing was gained."

“Could it be that in this huge palace, only these two treasures are left?” Xie Lingyun felt a little disappointed.

Zhang Chen ignored Xie Lingyun's words and hurried to the backyard. When he arrived at the backyard, Zhang Chen was stunned to see a clear palm print left in the ruins of the backyard. The palm print covered the entire backyard and penetrated three meters into the rocks, flattening the entire backyard.

The palm was lifelike, from the fingertips to the knuckles, and even the delicate skin lines in the palm, all were clearly visible, as if it were a high-pixel photo.

"This man's cultivation is so high, at least he has surpassed the tenth level!" Xie Lingyun stared at the palm print in front of him and said seriously.

"What do you mean?" Zhang Chen asked.

“It may be easy for a tenth-rank warrior to smash the mountain in front of him, but leaving a clear palm print is no longer such a simple matter. His understanding of the laws of heaven and earth and his mastery of his own power have reached an incredible level, and his body has also undergone an incredible transformation, so that he can withstand such tremendous magic power.” Xie Lingyun said.

After hearing Xie Lingyun's analysis, Zhang Chen nodded, agreeing with Xie Lingyun's analysis.

Then Zhang Chen's eyes swept over the palm print pattern. For some reason, it looked familiar. He seemed to remember a certain girl: "Xu Erniu doesn't have this kind of strength."

Zhang Chen activated his earth power in his mind, and saw the palm print begin to smooth out, and the rocks on the ground began to be arranged in a regular pattern. Just as Zhang Chen was about to clear the entire backyard, his earth control technique suddenly stopped: "Something is wrong!"

He sensed the breath of life!

"Impossible! How can there be life?" Zhang Chen's eyes were full of disbelief. You know, from the ancient times to the present, countless tens of thousands of years have passed, and the world has changed so much that apart from the mysterious things, there would be no powerful life left. Even those ancient gods have perished, let alone ordinary mortals?
Zhang Chen stopped manipulating the sand and gravel, and looked towards a certain ruined building. If he remembered correctly, that should be the master's bedroom, right? "Be careful, something went wrong, there seems to be a living thing here." Zhang Chen reminded Xie Lingyun.

Xie Lingyun tensed up immediately after hearing this: "A living being? Is it powerful?"

Xie Lingyun didn't find it strange that there was a life form hiding in such an ancient ruin, no matter how powerful it was.

Zhang Chen did not answer, but walked slowly forward, looked at the cleared ruins, and finally found a gate on the ground.

A door embedded in the ground.

"Is this the secret room in the master's bedroom?" Zhang Chen calculated secretly according to the structure of the entire courtyard: "The secret room left by the Changsheng master was not destroyed by that handprint. There is still someone hiding in it, and the person is alive. He deceived the strong man who destroyed Wuzhuang Temple. It's really a deception."

Of course, there is another possibility, that is, the strong man did not take the person hiding in the basement seriously, thinking that the other party would be trapped in the basement and unable to come out, and could only be trapped to death. Or the other party had already severely injured the person in the basement, and the other party thought that the person in the basement would not survive at all, so he let him escape by luck.

No matter which situation it is, the other party can be said to have escaped the net.

"This is the door to a secret room." Xie Lingyun looked at the stone door in front of him and said, "And this is not an ordinary stone. The material of these two pieces of stone looks like the legendary earth magnet stone, which contains a strong magnetic force. The two sides are attracted together and cannot be opened at all."

When Zhang Chen heard Xie Lingyun say "it cannot be opened", he did not agree. He was Zhang Chen, the master of earth power. Was there any stone in the world that he could not control?

As long as it is within his control area, he can master all the laws of earth.

Zhang Chen thought about it, and saw the two doors twisting, forming a passage like water. The deep part of the passage was pitch black and looked very creepy.

"What a trick!" Xie Lingyun saw that the Earth Elemental Magnetic Stone was twisted like plasticine in front of Zhang Chen, and there was a hint of shock in her eyes. She felt that she had underestimated Zhang Chen's tricks. Although she had tried her best to overestimate Zhang Chen, she still underestimated him. Even if a tenth-level expert came, he would not be able to do this trick.

Zhang Chen looked at the dark passage, took off his clothes, and then made a torch out of a stick and lit it, and said to Xie Lingyun: "Let's go in and take a look."

Zhang Chen was the first to step into the passage. As the firelight moved, he could see the structure of the passage clearly. He was secretly shocked: "No wonder there are still people alive in this secret room. This secret room is actually built with earth magnet stone. In addition, it is built underground, so it can withstand the attack of the strong man without deforming."

"These are all secret rooms built with earth magnetic stones. How extravagant were these ancient people? If we can move these earth magnetic stones out, we will make a fortune." Xie Lingyun's eyes were hot.

Zhang Chen did not respond to Xie Lingyun's words. The Patriarch Changsheng controlled the Qingcheng Mountains and created the path to earthly immortals. It was not an exaggeration to call him the ancestor of earthly immortals. His own cultivation level had even surpassed the twelfth level and he had entered the legendary realm of fruit. Even if he was equipped with the earth's magnetic stone, Zhang Chen did not find it strange.

“With the status of the ancestor, this place should not only have the Earth’s Primordial Magnetic Stone, but perhaps also the legendary Earth’s Primordial Magnetic Heart.” Thinking of this, Zhang Chen felt a little excited.

The Earth's Magnetic Heart is useful, indeed, it can absorb all metal objects between heaven and earth, and even magic weapons made of metal. It is also useless, except for the above functions, it has no other uses.

But this thing is of great use to Zhang Chen.

Zhang Chen was walking in the earth's magnetic field channel. He had no iron objects on him, so he would not be affected by the earth's magnetic field. Xie Lingyun also had no iron objects on him, so he would not be affected by the earth's magnetic field.

After the two of them walked through a corridor more than 30 meters long, they saw a small door. Inside the small door was a secret room with a radius of 20 meters.

There were pearls shining in the secret room, illuminating the entire room as bright as day.

The walls surrounding the secret room were lined with rows of bookshelves, and in the center of the room was a pool, three meters square, with milky white liquid swirling inside. There was a blurry human figure soaking in the water, making it impossible to see its face clearly.

Zhang Chen glanced at the books on the shelf, and looked through the gaps between the books at the wall of the secret room formed by the earth's magnetic stone. He saw countless fine cracks like spider webs on the wall. Obviously, after the palm from outside fell, the secret room was not destroyed, but it suffered heavy damage.

On the top of the secret room are huge pearls, emitting a bright light that illuminates the entire secret room.

"Zhang Chen, there is someone in that pool!" Xie Lingyun followed behind Zhang Chen and reminded him in a vigilant voice.

Of course Zhang Chen saw the figure in the pool. He wanted to see the figure's face clearly to see if it was an old acquaintance. However, the milky white water obscured the figure's face, making it difficult for him to see clearly.
