Chapter 968 Mural Clues, Abnormal Return Path

The immature buds of bud seeds are very ordinary, but not ordinary.

The young buds as a whole are similar to saplings that have just broken through the ground.

It is counterintuitive that a flower bud grows a sapling.

Looking carefully at Youya, Qin Zhe frowned slightly.

Leaving aside the ownership of the bud seeds, he is now a little unsure if this thing is a spiritual habitat.

The sprouts that emerged from the ground looked like saplings, but to a certain extent, it conformed to the characteristics of the spirit habitat.

Although the Lingqi Wood doesn't look like a big tree with branches and leaves scattered, it's just a bare piece of wood, but the overall look is at least a trunk.

The problem is that after the bud seeds that radiate the seven-color glow similar to the spirit habitat tree germinate, the main body of the buds does not emit any shimmer, and the buds are pure green like ordinary plants.

Scratching his head, Qin Zhe decided to ignore it for the time being.

Anyway, things are planted in his inner world, and they can't escape anyway.

When it grows one day, it should be able to determine whether the bud seed is actually a spiritual habitat.

With a thought, Qin Zhe left the inner world and returned to the empty space.

As soon as he returned to his original position, he was surprised to find that the stone platform of the altar containing the unknown liquid had disappeared.

To be precise, it is not gone, but decayed.

It seems that during the time he entered the inner world, the relatively intact stone platform of the altar seemed to have gone through countless years, and the decayed elegance became a pile of rubble.

The original form of the altar and stone platform is no longer there.

Some of the stone decorations that had previously been decorated on the altar turned into wind and sand.

All that remains in place is a pile of rubble proving that the altar stone was ever actually there.

Confused, he stretched out his hand to pick up a gravel, but before he had time to use his strength, the gravel turned into wind and sand in Qin Zhe's hands.

this……

what's the situation?

Qin Zhe was astonished.

Looking around, the surrounding things are still the same, nothing has changed.

Qin Zhe shook his head after confirming that the only thing that had changed was the altar stone platform containing an unknown liquid.

This place is very weird.

The change of the stone platform of the altar happened after he left.

Without witnessing it with his own eyes, he might not be able to research anything.

Instead of lingering here, it's better to look elsewhere in the tile shed to see if there is anything related to bud seeds.

He is currently unclear about the origin of the bud seeds.

But since the unknown liquid contained in the altar stone platform can promote the growth and germination of the bud seeds, and it is well preserved and never dried up, it seems that the unknown liquid itself is highly valued, and the creator of the altar stone platform used some means to properly preserve the liquid.

For something as important as an unknown liquid, there shouldn't be only one trace.

Don't tell me, Qin Zhe made a discovery immediately after leaving the altar stone platform.

On a complete low wall adjacent to the stone platform of the altar, he noticed that a mural was covered up on the dusty low wall.

With a wave of his hand, he slapped the low wall, using skill to shake off the thick dust, and the broken mural was immediately revealed.

As the mural appeared, Qin Zhe's eyes lit up.

The broken murals, without any color, are very rough.

But the mural itself solved most of his doubts.

Looking up, a straight wood on the mural stands on a flat ground, and some wild beasts of different shapes are depicted around it to worship it.

This scene has a strong sense of sight.

Lingqi wood is a straight piece of wood.

In addition, Qin Zhe had witnessed a large number of spirit beasts and fierce beasts in the spiritual habitat, and after the world-suppressing tortoise was quiet, they went back to the spiritual habitat to worship.

Looking at the position closest to the wood on the mural, there is a depiction of a human figure with long arms and slightly deformed hands holding a stone bowl in both hands and dumping it on the wood.

With this gesture as a reference, it can be said that the bud seed is the spiritual habitat.

Although the bud seeds are never depicted in the murals, there is a clear mention of the Lingqi wood.

The deformed humanoid with long arms corresponds to the weird creature in the empty space.

At the same time, he held up the stone bowl and dumped it, vaguely pointing to the unknown liquid preserved in the stone platform of the altar.

After paying attention to the murals for a while, Qin Zhe saw that there were not many other details on the murals and could not see much, so he left and continued to search in the tile shed.

The general doubts have been clarified.

But with regard to empty space, it can be said that the overall doubts are clouded.

The deformed human figures on the murals prove that the weird creatures originally looked like human beings but not human beings.

It is not difficult to see from the various dilapidated buildings left in the empty space that they obviously possess intelligence.

Know how to place altars, but also know how to carve murals.

Could it be that he just saw something that didn't manifest wisdom not long ago, like a walking dead and extremely aggressive?

This group must have suffered some kind of change.

The changes during the period are mostly related to their being suppressed and sealed in the empty space.

Looking back, this group of weird creatures was also related to Linglongjian.

Undoubtedly, the unknown girl who relied on the Linglong Sword to leave her influence has an extremely close connection with Lingqimu.

Qin Zhe will never forget the girl's appearance and strength.

The figure that looked like a fairy coming down to earth, to be honest, it was difficult to have anything to do with the weird creature that was also connected to the spirit habitat.

Perhaps, they did not exist in the same era.

Or maybe they were once friendly.

How exactly, I'm afraid only God knows.

Continuing to search in the dilapidated tile shed, Qin Zhe turned around the entire tile shed, seeing nothing further, no lingering attachment to this place, he left the tile shed and rose from the sky.

The empty space is unknown, and he hasn't had time to check it yet.

But I was really depressed to explore alone in a place that the ghost knows how many meters deep underground.

Qin Zhe didn't want to stay in this horrible place.

And overall, he has already spent a lot of time in the underground ruins.

Calculating the time, he should turn back to the surface of the restricted area.

...

The journey home was quite smooth.

From the empty space to the ruins of the palace, nothing happened.

Passing through the ruins of the palace and walking on the path of return, Qin Zhe didn’t see anything unusual on the road. The food source insects that originally nested in the path seemed to have disappeared. I don’t know if it’s because the insect nests were destroyed and built elsewhere. nest.

After traveling smoothly all the way, Qin Zhe returned to the stone stele in the fork in only about half an hour.

Pausing for a while at the intersection, and looking at the passage to the left, Qin Zhe directly chose to go back.

It's not that he doesn't want to explore what's on the left.

Among other things, he doesn't even have a definite clue about the human race's treasure mentioned on the stele.

The palace on the right path and the empty space that was suppressed and sealed have nothing to do with the human race.

The ones who are connected are at most the girl and the weird creature who once owned the Linglong sword.

Can the treasure of the human race be in the hands of a group of alternative beings?

Obviously not.

But thinking about making an appointment with Liu Qingzhi and Yao Jing, Qin Zhe decided to go back for the time being.

As for whether to continue to explore in the future, let's see what the two Taoist companions mean.

The road after the stele fork is a little less depressing.

Qin Zhe walked towards the surface at a very fast speed.

Just as he was about to approach the entrance of the ruins, a voice in front caught his attention.

Dragon Kingdom official this is...

Send someone down again?

Qin Zhe was slightly taken aback when he heard the voice.

Immediately afterwards, he noticed that the human voice was not coming from inside the ruins, but from outside.

Hiding his figure and quietly speeding up his pace, Qin Zhe quickly tracked down the source of the voice.

A team of about fifty people is walking out.

In the team, there were about 20 people with green faces and wearing the uniforms of various schools.

The remaining 30 or so people were dressed in the uniforms of the Dragon Kingdom.

Are these people the students and the search and rescue team who entered the ruins earlier?

They are not dead! ?
