Chapter 359: Ancient Sect?
"Elder?" Li Changxiao smiled a little more when he heard that. He felt a little happy and asked, "Which elder?"
"Why are you asking this? Do you know any elders of Dayan Hua Sect?" the water ghost asked back, with a hint of joking in his tone.
Li Changxiao smiled meaningfully, took a sip of wine, and replied slowly, "I do know him."
"You're just bragging." The water ghost muttered, indicating that he didn't believe it.
"That's the Dayan Hua Sect, the elder of the main sect. He's a well-known and important person. How can it be so easy for ordinary people to get to know him?"
"That person is more or less familiar."
talking.
The water ghost glanced at the pretty girl with a high ponytail who was walking in front.
Li Changxiao also turned his head and looked over.
He could feel that this Zhao Qiu was very young, just over twenty years old, and had started the journey of longevity very early, so she still had plenty of life left.
Such people are the new-born flowers in the world, and they have a unique pride. This is normal. Who doesn’t feel that he is the most unique existence in the world when he is young?
Li Changxiao never disliked this kind of arrogance, so he didn't take Zhao Qiu's slightly impolite responses to heart. At this moment, he looked the girl up and down, with admiration in his eyes.
He wanted to see what the new flowers in this world looked like and whether they were full of vitality. He was so curious about everything.
Zhao Qiu did not disappoint him.
However, Zhao Qiu misunderstood Li Changxiao and felt that there was something strange in his eyes, which made her unhappy, but she buried it in her heart.
"Hmph." Zhao Qiu took out a fire starter from a fist-sized brocade bag and blew it gently, igniting a bright flame that illuminated the surroundings.
She also heard the conversation between the two. After a proud snort, she replied, "Dayan Hua Sect is the number one sect in Baiyu, and its reputation is far-reaching. However... I do know a few of the elders."
she said lightly.
There was a hint of boasting in his words.
Li Changxiao usually smiled at such little girl's thoughts.
"Even... I had quite a bit of interaction with the elder who came here."
At this point, Zhao Qiu's eyes lit up slightly, and this woman, who had always behaved so arrogantly, finally showed a bit of admiration in her eyes.
"Is he your idol?" Li Changxiao asked jokingly out of boredom.
"Idol?" Zhao Qiu was stunned and looked at Li Changxiao in surprise.
Li Changxiao smiled and explained: "It means role model."
"That's true." Zhao Qiu's eyes shone brightly, "I really want to be like her."
At this point, Zhao Qiu was suddenly stunned, and the expression on his face gradually faded.
Really.
Why are you talking to this drunkard about this?
Zhao Qiu felt bored, so he continued on his way, looking for interesting things in the ruins.
The ruins are not ancient tombs, so the dangerous mechanisms are relatively less.
Even if there are dangers, most of them can be avoided as long as you are careful and cautious.
On the way, Li Changxiao saw a pile of dry firewood and silk cloth. He came up with an idea. He took the dry firewood and silk cloth, tied them up, made them into a crude fire stick that could burn continuously, and then lit it with a fire starter.
The fire became brighter, illuminating the surroundings. The ruins, buried deep underground and surrounded by groundwater, finally revealed their true appearance before everyone's eyes.
Li Changxiao has extremely strong eyesight. Even without practicing pupil techniques, he can still see clearly in the darkness around him.
He didn't need to rely on the firelight, but wherever he looked, his face showed a touch of emotion.
This relic was many times more magnificent than he had imagined.
He had been to no less than a hundred ruins, but none of them were of this scale.
"What kind of force is this?" Li Changxiao's doubts deepened.
"How magnificent... this building... is simply a sign from heaven! It is a sign from heaven!" The water ghost looked up and around, looking very out of control, with greed flashing in his eyes.
Zhao Qiu also widened his eyes and was coaxed to stay where he was.
She is still young, and even though she thinks she is very important, she has not really seen the world.
They walked forward a few steps and came to an extremely huge stone pillar.
This stone pillar is almost a hundred meters high.
Straight to the dome.
It is engraved with exquisite auspicious patterns of the Qilin, which are lifelike. Under the light of the fire, you can even vaguely see the flow of light passing by, and the Qilin is flying in the sky with its feet on the auspicious clouds.
"What a nice view…"
"How grand this is."
Zhao Qiu was deeply shocked.
One can imagine how great the impact of this hundred-meter-high white jade pillar was on her.
"Is this really what humans can have?" she couldn't help but ask.
The sound echoed throughout the ruins.
"It would be great if I could take it with me. I can't even imagine how valuable this stone pillar is! One hundred thousand taels? No, tens of millions of taels, hundreds of thousands of taels, I'm afraid it's not even a fraction of that!"
The water ghost stood aside and felt his mouth dry.
I'm very excited.
There was another inexplicable sense of loss.
Li Changxiao sighed leisurely, this... was indeed the glory that humans once possessed, a glory that belongs only to the human race.
He gently stroked the white jade pillar, and inevitably, a hint of complex meaning emerged in his eyes.
This splendor.
Is recovery possible in the future?
Li Changxiao didn't know, but he hoped so. He wouldn't feel jealous or angry because someone was more talented than him, practiced faster than him, or was stronger than him.
Because he is not the kind of person who strives to be the best in everything.
He felt lonely when he was once surrounded by shining stars, because he was just a spectator and had no chance to participate in those magnificent competitions.
Now that the stars are dim, he still feels lonely, even though he is still the spectator.
This is so complex that it is difficult for outsiders to understand.
Li Changxiao gently stroked the white jade pillar and sighed imperceptibly.
"A kirin carved from white jade..."
"The predecessor of this site must have been a super-large one!"
Li Changxiao thought to himself.
I never thought that I would encounter such a big "stuff" during my casual visit!
The carvings on the stone pillars of Fuyao Tianxia have always had strict definitions.
Only the super sects that inherit the destiny of the world and protect the peace of the world are qualified to carve auspicious beasts such as "True Dragon", "True Phoenix" and "Qilin" on the sect stone pillars.
Although other sects’ stone pillars also often have dragon and phoenix patterns, they dare not use “real dragons” or “real phoenixes”. Even if they are secretly engraved, they lack that kind of “charm”.
The Qilin on this stone pillar is lifelike. Its spiritual energy has been exhausted for many years, but even now it still has miraculous effects flowing, which is breathtaking.
Obviously, this sect is a top-notch super sect.
