Eternal Tranquility

"Spiritual spring?" Liu Qinghuan was surprised and picked a ghost peach blossom. At this time, they were walking in the small garden of Tianshu Pavilion. There were sparse flowers and plants on both sides of the gravel road, most of which were rare varieties in Qingming.

"Although Senluo Palace is a palace of the underworld, there is indeed a spiritual spring here." Yue Jie told the collected information one by one: "In addition to demon cultivators and ghost cultivators, Jiuyou still has many spiritual cultivators. Many demon cultivators are spiritual cultivators. To practice, you also need to use spiritual springs.”

Then he said: "Master, the palace you are living in now also has a spiritual spring. It is in the side hall third into the back. There should be a meditation room for practice. Didn't you notice?"

Liu Qinghuan knew that the palace arranged for him by the old man was also a large hall with several levels, but he was very busy these days and had no intention of practicing here, so he never took a closer look at his residence.

Liu Qinghuan stood on a high place and looked down. The entire garden occupies a large area, with luxuriant flowers and trees like clouds, small bridges and flowing water, rockery creeks, pavilions and pavilions, and soft light shining from the almost invisible round dome. It makes people feel like they are on the ground rather than in a closed palace.

"Just this Heavenly Book Palace." Liu Qinghuan said: "Heavenly Book Palace, the name of this palace is quite interesting."

"It is said that this place used to be a place where classics were stored. There are two scripture-depositing buildings over there. There are many defense mechanisms inside, but most of them have been cracked." Yue Jie said: "Master, don't look at other halls anymore. Make a decision again?”

Liu Qinghuan said: "This should be the one you think is the most suitable among the palaces you selected, right? That's fine, you don't need to look at the others." Then he said: "Sutra Collection Tower? Let's go and take a look around."

Exiting from the entrance of the garden, the two of them turned down a staircase that went downwards. The so-called Sutra Collection Building was actually deeper underground, with one floor connected to the other. It was an upside-down building.

The building has long been empty, with only some shelves lying in the corner. Perhaps because no one has visited for a long time, there is a thick layer of dust on the floor, and the door frame is sealed by cobwebs, making everything look dark and damp.

"Ahem!" Yue Jie waved away the dust, picked up something from the ground, looked at it carefully and handed it to Liu Qinghuan.

It was a blue jade slip. Because it was broken into several parts, the contents of the slip could no longer be read.

"There must have been a big battle here before, and many letters were destroyed in the fight." Yue Zhi found a few jade fragments from the dust, and even found a tortoise shell the size of a fingernail, with half of a word engraved on it vaguely visible. mark.

"There's no need to look for it." Liu Qinghuan said: "There can't be any intact classics left. These places have been searched countless times by their people. How can there be any fish that have slipped through the net?"

He looked around: "This should be the bottom floor, right? Come on, I'm just curious, so I came down for a walk. If a magic circle is set up here in the future, it can be used as a warehouse..."

His words suddenly stopped and he turned around suddenly!

Yue Jie was startled by his actions and quickly looked around, but behind Liu Qinghuan was a narrow aisle with nothing there.

"Owner?"

Liu Qinghuan's eyes were sharp: "Did you feel like you were being spied on just now?"

"No!" Yue Jie was confused by the question and said quickly: "When I just spoke, I was facing the aisle and didn't see anything unusual happening. However, my spiritual sense is incomparable to yours, master. You have The feeling of being spied on is probably there!”

Liu Qinghuan's eyes moved slowly, scanning the stone wall and the ground facing them, then slowly moved up and stopped.

Yue Zhi also looked at the ceiling. The ceiling here was not high. Black strips of stone made of the same material as the stone wall covered the entire top of the head, without even the slightest bit of carving.

Liu Qinghuan's fingertips moved slightly, his eyes suddenly became extremely dark, and circles of invisible ripples spread out!

Yue Jian shuddered slightly and moved uncomfortably farther away from Liu Qinghuan: Whenever Liu Qinghuan used magic to return to heaven and the sun, he felt that the other person's eyes became extremely scary, like two long looking eyes. The endless tunnel connects the past and the future, and can reveal the deepest secrets in people's hearts.

I saw the ripples touching the ceiling. After a while, time seemed to be retraced, and a scene that happened not long ago appeared:

I saw the rough stone surface suddenly distorted, and a ferocious ghost face gradually emerged. It rolled its eyes and looked down. The next moment, its eyes showed a look of panic. It shrank back and the stone wall immediately recovered. As is!

"Ghost eagle?" Yue Zhi asked curiously: "Can such ghosts in Senluo Palace run around freely?"

Liu Qinghuan frowned and shook his head: "I don't know... are there ghost eagles in the Palace of Heavenly Books?"

"No, right?" Although Yue Jie checked the entire palace, it was only a rough inspection, so he was not sure.

"But the monk who took me around mentioned that those ghost eagles should be restricted and can only move in the corridors. Moreover, those ghost eagles also know how to look, and are also afraid of high-level monks, so They are rarely seen on the 18th floor.”

But obviously, restrictions are not absolute, and fear is uncertain, otherwise they would not have encountered one in the Palace of Heavenly Books.

"Once we have confirmed it with the old man, we will set up the magic circle here first." Liu Qinghuan walked out and said: "We can start building the star gate, and the place will be..."

He thought for a while: "In the main hall on the second floor, that will be my place to sit and sleep from now on."

Yue Jie wrote them down one by one and asked: "Has the agreement been reached between the leader of the Immortal Alliance and the old man?"

"The matters related to me have been decided from the beginning." Liu Qinghuan said: "They are arguing over whether to build another star gate, and they have to talk slowly."

The two of them walked out while talking. When they reached the gate, Liu Qinghuan looked up and saw a ghost eagle with hanging eyes and crooked mouth squatting behind a huge vase.

As soon as he saw them, the ghost eagle jumped up and turned around, running away in such a panic that he didn't even stop when one of his arms fell off.

Liu Qinghuan paused, and Yue Jie asked: "Master, do you want to pursue me?"

"No need." Liu Qinghuan said, but he also changed his plan to return to the temporary residence immediately: "We are strolling around on the 18th floor. I haven't visited this floor properly in the past few days. I took the opportunity to take a look at my future neighbors. Who are they?”

Of course Yue Jie didn't hesitate: "The location of the Heavenly Book Palace is a bit remote, close to the northwest edge, and it is basically surrounded by empty palaces. In this way, it will be more convenient for our people to enter and exit in the future."

"You thought well." Liu Qinghuan agreed.

Because the residents on the 18th floor of Senluo Hall are all major repairmen, it is much quieter than the other floors. There are almost no people wandering around with nothing to do.

Therefore, the two of them walked out of several corridors without encountering anyone. Instead, they encountered another ghost eagle, which also ran away after seeing them.

Liu Qinghuan and Yue Jie looked at each other, and Yue Jie immediately chased after him. However, he didn't expect that the ghost eagle was very fast and familiar with the terrain. It scurried around and failed to catch up for a while. In the end, it pounced on the wall. Disappear in an instant!

Yue Jian was feeling very embarrassed when he heard Liu Qinghuan ask: "Where is this?"

Yue Jie looked around, then took out the map, walked a few steps forward, turned a corner, and the passage ahead suddenly cut off, and a huge hole appeared in front of the two of them.

Liu Qinghuan looked up and suddenly smiled: "That's it, the west hanging corridor!"

Yue Jie happened to find the location on the map and said in surprise: "This is..."

Liu Qinghuan flicked the hem of his clothes: "Let's go. Since we were led here, let's go up and have a look!"
