The Other Side of Deep Space

The animal skin book is one foot square, showing a silver luster. There are hundreds of characters densely packed on it. They are not written with pen and ink, but carved with a knife.

Wang Xuan touched it with his hand. The veins are clear and the touch is obvious. The knife skills are extremely exquisite. Each character has a kind of artistic conception and is full of beauty.

However, he doesn't recognize all the characters!

What kind of ghost is this? The strokes are numerous and extremely complex. He wants to associate it with the bronze inscriptions, but finds no similarities.

He looked left and right. This is not oracle bone script. What era is the text from? He doesn't recognize a single word.

Wang Xuan uses shorthand, staring at these hundreds of characters with his eyes, treating them as photos, and trying to imprint them in his mind.

It doesn't matter if you don't recognize it now. Go back and check it, find someone to decipher it, and you can always solve it. The most important thing is to remember it firmly in your heart.

In order to keep this operation confidential, no one is allowed to bring mobile phones that can contact the outside world, otherwise Wang Xuan can take pictures directly.

Although he had a button-sized micro scanner, it was given by the expedition organization and he might have to hand it in in the end.

Wang Xuan memorized it silently and found it quite difficult. He didn't recognize hundreds of complex characters and could only memorize them like a heavenly book.

Fortunately, he had trained himself over the years. When he practiced the root method in the old technique, he needed to imagine various complex scenes without any omissions.

He now regarded the entire silver animal skin book as a complex scroll, engraved it in his heart, and kept imagining it.

Wang Xuan was sure that there was no problem and he remembered everything in his mind.

But in the end, he still turned on the micro scanner and scanned the text from different directions. He was afraid that different angles would hide other mysteries.

"Even if I need to hand it in, I hope Qingmu will allow me to make a backup."

Wang Xuan didn't think about monopolizing it. First, he felt that this was the result of everyone's joint efforts.

Second, he believed that eating alone would not end well. Since he had a scanner on him, it might have been automatically turned on to record the entire process of this operation.

There are many wonderful methods and good things in this world. The tycoons dug all over the old land and even got the golden bamboo slips, but no one has heard of anyone who can practice anything.

The key is to see who can understand it in the end, and finally practice what it records. This is the fundamental.

Wang Xuan seriously doubted that no one could practice this scripture in a short time, and no one could even analyze its essence.

After all, even the person wearing feather clothes, who was considered to be the strongest among the alchemists, was reading this animal skin scroll until his death. He was so powerful, but he was still studying it, which was enough to explain the problem.

Then, he took out the jade box.

The so-called jade box is a jade box. Most of it is white and warm. It is a piece of beautiful jade. Only on one side is there a spot of blood. It is an ancient artifact.

In the middle are several pieces of gold foil, nailed together, like a few pages of golden paper forming a thin golden book.

Wang Xuan looked at it and found that there were only five pages. There were human figures on each page of gold foil, but no text annotations. The pictures were very coherent and the descriptions were detailed enough.

He was sure that this was a physical skill, which seemed very profound and involved complicated movements to stimulate the internal organs. It should be very difficult.

He began to memorize again. Generally speaking, these familiar human figures were much easier to remember than the characters on the silver animal skin scroll.

Finally, he used a scanner to scan the entire golden book and recorded everything.

He knew that the animal skin scroll might not reveal anything, at least not in the short term, as it was something that only top alchemists could study.

Perhaps, this golden book was more valuable to him than the animal skin scroll.

Wang Xuan found a hidden place, leaned against the stone wall, held an energy gun, and then carefully looked at the golden book and silver scroll again.

Time passed quietly, and Qingmu, Heihu and others had not returned. It was obvious that the underground passage had a complex terrain and was dug like a spider web by the predecessors, so they had difficulty chasing the enemy.

After an unknown amount of time, Wang Xuan suddenly felt a chill. Without even thinking, he raised his hand and swept the energy gun across. The dazzling beam of light shattered the rocks and splashed everywhere.

A figure was as agile and ferocious as a tiger or leopard. With a few dodges, he actually avoided the intertwined beams of energy guns. Then, like an eagle, he leaped behind a rock and disappeared.

Wang Xuan was extremely serious. He was definitely a great master!

Just now, the man approached him less than five meters away from him, and he was sensed by him. He also dodged his sweeping shot as fast as lightning.

Ordinary people can't do it at all. This person is probably not inferior to Qingmu. He has practiced extremely powerful old techniques and has terrifying strength.

"One of us!" In the distance, the voice of a middle-aged man came from behind the rock, and part of his body was exposed. He was wearing the same protective suit as Wang Xuan.

Wang Xuan didn't say anything. He hid behind the rock, holding an energy gun and ready to fire at any time.

That person was very dangerous, especially when he was almost approaching without making any sound just now, which made Wang Xuan's hair stand on end. The other party clearly wanted to attack him.

There were shadowy figures, and more than a dozen people came to the underground palace, all holding energy guns, hiding behind rocks and corners.

A woman said: "We are old acquaintances of Qingmu. Don't misunderstand, let alone misjudge. Send the things here quickly. The discovery here is very important and cannot be lost. We are the ones responsible for the response. We have to take you to open the underground palace quickly. If it is later, the reinforcements of the Zhou family and Lingjia may arrive."

Wang Xuan asked: "Since you are the one responsible for the response, why did you attack me just now?"

He was sure that if the energy gun had not been in his hand all the time and his reaction was extremely sharp, he might have been successfully attacked by the master just now.

The middle-aged man who had attacked earlier said, "You misunderstood. We need to be vigilant when we enter the cave. I led them to sneak in, so we naturally need to pay attention to check for danger. You hid in the dark, and I didn't realize it was one of our own at first, but your reaction speed is really amazing, young man, not bad!"

Wang Xuan was unmoved, and said in a hoarse false voice, "Since it is one of our own, let's wait for Qingmu, Heihu and others to come back together."

The woman seemed a little impatient and said, "Why don't you listen to my advice? I've said that the people from the Zhou family and the Ling family are coming. If you don't want to leave, hand over the animal skin roll quickly and we will send you away first."

Wang Xuan immediately distrusted them even more. Even if he saw the animal skin roll, couldn't he see that he was wearing the same protective suit? In the end, they approached him secretly and wanted to attack him.

He said nothing, and with the help of huge rocks and other defenses, he sneaked into the depths of the underground palace.

After the people behind noticed it, they immediately quickened their pace and chased after them. Wang Xuan was not polite and directly fired with an energy gun to warn them.

"Qingmu, Heihu, are you back?" Wang Xuan shouted loudly, still in a hoarse falsetto.

There was movement in the distance. Obviously, after such a long time, Qingmu, Heihu and others set out on their return journey.

"Catch up!"

The woman behind shouted, and a group of people quickly followed.

The powerful middle-aged man was the most terrifying. He was silent and tried to approach Wang Xuan several times, but was stopped by him with an energy gun.

"Roar!"

Qingmu's roar came from the depths of the underground passage. Obviously, he noticed that something was wrong here and brought people to rush over quickly.

The underground spider web-like passage had a very complicated terrain. Wang Xuan suddenly stopped, quickly found a hidden place to hide, and then shot forward.

Sure enough, in the bright beam of light, the middle-aged man was seen again, who actually went around from another fork in the road to the front, just preparing to ambush him.

"Jinchuan, what are you doing here?" Qingmu's voice came, and he rushed over very quickly, confronting the middle-aged man.

Wang Xuan immediately said: "Qingmu, I got the silver animal skin scroll left by the pre-Qin alchemist. This group of people said they were here to pick us up and take the scriptures from me."

He simply and directly told the process.

"Jinchuan, you are really good. Isn't it too much to come here to intercept?!" Qingmu was angry when he heard it, with anger.

At the same time, he was also a little happy that they only got an empty golden box, and Wang Xuan, who stayed behind, actually found the real inheritance.

Jinchuan apologized slightly and said: "Qingmu, you and I both know that this time the things are extraordinary, don't blame me."

"You brought your men to rob it, and you still want me not to blame you?!" Qingmu sneered.

Jinchuan said solemnly, "Don't worry, I will only look at it once and return it to you immediately. I will never intercept it. I can swear."

"No, you have touched my bottom line. I can't let you look at it." Qingmu refused directly.

Jinchuan waved his hand, and the group of people he brought immediately surrounded Wang Xuan's hiding place.

Qingmu said coldly, "You really dare to attack us. Don't forget that our exploration organization hates internal vendettas and bloody fights the most. Whoever dares to do this will be surrounded by other troops together. No matter you hide in the old land or escape to the new star, there will be no way to survive!"

Jinchuan shook his head and smiled lightly, "No, you misunderstood. I just want to learn from you. The people I brought want to learn from Xiao Wang. There will be no bloodshed."

At this point, he ordered those people, "Don't use your guns. Put them on the ground to show your sincerity."

Heihu, Fengzheng and others were not far away at this time. They scolded in the passage and warned Jinchuan's people not to act rashly.

Qingmu shouted, "Xiao Wang, protect what you got. According to the agreement of our organization, you only need to hand over half of what you got from the expedition, so that is your own spoils. Don't let anyone intercept it!"

Wang Xuan nodded. He was very unhappy with this group of latecomers. If he hadn't been alert enough, he would have been really cleaned up. It might be okay to survive, but the gold book and silver scroll would definitely be snatched away by these people.

Wang Xuan naturally wouldn't indulge them. These people wanted to intercept him, and now they didn't even ask him, just wanted to read the scriptures. Did they take Xiao Wang seriously?

Those who threw down energy guns and approached with the help of the terrain surrounded Wang Xuan here, getting closer and closer.

Wang Xuan said nothing and waited quietly until someone suddenly pounced on him, then he held the gun with both hands and swept it fiercely.

Plop! Plop!

Several people fell to the ground and fainted, and some masters quickly retreated and successfully avoided it.

"This young man is not polite. I told you that we should fight with bare hands and use the old skills, but he used a gun!" Someone shouted in dissatisfaction.

Wang Xuan ignored him. How could he be polite to you? How could he be so shameless!

This group of people originally wanted to ambush him and take away his spoils. Now they still have the nerve to talk like this.

Finally, Hei Hu and Feng Zheng rushed back first and killed them directly "very politely", using the old skills to fight against those people.

"Xiao Wang, you should also be 'polite' and show them a few tricks." Qing Mu shouted. He was confronting Jin Chuan and seemed to be very relieved about the situation here.

Wang Xuan observed that there were still a few young men brought by Jin Chuan who had not been confronted by anyone, and they had no hot weapons in their hands.

Wang Xuan walked out, and without saying much, his hands made a sound of wind and thunder. He used the Vajra Fist in the physical skills and broke into the group of people alone.

In an instant, the area was filled with fist winds, and the ground was trampled into cracks. Wang Xuan's attack power shocked several people. Such a young master of the old art is really rare!

Bang!

In a moment, one of the women was kicked in the face, spitting blood from her mouth, flew out, hit the stone wall, and collapsed there.

Crack!

Then, another young man was hit by Wang Xuan's Vajra Fist on the shoulder armor, and his bones were broken immediately. He groaned and fell into the pile of rocks.

Puff!

In the fierce fight, the third person was kicked by Wang Xuan in the air, three ribs were broken, and blood foam kept spitting from his mouth. He fell there and couldn't get up.

In a very short time, Wang Xuan made continuous moves and knocked down five people one after another, and he rushed to the opponents of Heihu, Fengzheng and others.

Heihu and Fengzheng ran fast and came back before others, each fighting against several opponents.

Now Wang Xuan rushed over and beat one of them so hard that he flew seven or eight meters away, causing him to cough up blood and struggle for a long time but couldn't get up.

These were a group of middle-aged men in their thirties and forties who had already mastered the old techniques, but they were still beaten by Wang Xuan, and some of them had broken arms and ribs.

"No more fighting." Jin Chuan saw that something was wrong and immediately called for a stop, saying, "I can't believe that this is a newcomer, but he is so fierce. The most important thing is that his hands are quite dirty. A group of veterans under my command couldn't handle it. This time, I made a mistake. I didn't bring any experts here except me."

"Qingmu, how about just letting it go? I owe you a favor and I'll pay you back next time!" Jin Chuan lowered his posture.

Qingmu nodded and said, "Okay, show me the true interpretation of the White Tiger Sutra passed down in your family next time, how about that?"

"Get lost!" Jin Chuan led his men away.

"Let's go too!" After gathering everyone, Qingmu led everyone to quickly leave the underground palace. Soon after, they boarded the spaceship and successfully left Qingcheng Mountain.
