My teacher is a bit strong

But fortunately, the worst outcome that Su Anran expected did not happen.

He and Song Jue appeared in a forest at the same time.

The branches and leaves of this forest are not lush, on the contrary, they are somewhat withered.

There is no green grass on the ground. It seems that the water in the ground has been lost, making the ground appear khaki and cracked.

"It's daytime now." Song Jue looked at the sky, and then said slowly, "But the exact time is hard to say, we must find a foothold as soon as possible."

"Daytime?!" Su Anran was stunned.

He looked at the sky, and it was quite dark because of the lead clouds covering the sky.

It may be said that the night is a bit too late, but the dark sky makes people feel that if it is not night, at least it is evening.

"There are only two time periods in the demon world, one is during the day and the other is at night." Knowing that Su Anran entered this world for the first time, Song Jue explained, "The duration of the daytime is relatively long, basically like the present day." This kind of sky can belong to the daytime, which is the time when human beings can be active."

Song Jue looked around carefully and vigilantly, and after confirming that there was no danger, he continued to speak: "The night time is relatively short, but it is the most dangerous time, because the visibility is quite low. Even if it is you and me With such strength, I'm afraid I can't see the situation ten meters away. When I only had the cultivation base of my life, my visibility was even less than five meters, and it was because of this that I suffered a dull loss."

Su Anran found that after entering this small world, Song Jue was in a very tense state of mind.

Although he doesn't know the specific situation very well, he can generally guess the reason.

It was nothing more than the fact that Song Jue had suffered a lot in this small world back then, so much so that he had a psychological shadow.

"In this world, monsters have quite unique abilities, and their advantages are much greater than ours." Song Jue said again, "So we must find a foothold before it really gets dark. It would be best if we could find a village If it really doesn't work, temples, caves, even burrows and tree holes are fine, because in this world, not only monsters are a threat to us, but some creatures that are mutated by the influence of miasma are also quite dangerous."

"Mutated creature? Alien beast?"

"It can be understood in this way." Song Jue nodded slightly.

Regarding strange beasts, Su Anran's current understanding is not so superficial.

In the mysterious world, ferocious beasts are creatures that follow instinct and have no reason at all.Monster beasts are slightly better. Although they basically act according to instinct, most of the time they are rational. After knowing that the opponent is difficult, they usually choose to retreat.The strange beasts, like sapphires, have a certain amount of wisdom—not just rationality, they know how to achieve their desired goals, especially some strange beasts even make traps and use tools, etc.— Occasionally, I will follow my instincts, but basically I can restrain my instinctive desires.

"These mutated creatures don't have much intelligence at all. Most of them retain the habits of their former species, but they are extremely aggressive, especially when they are hungry." Probably seeing Su Anran's doubts, Song Jue once again Said, "But they are not monsters after all, nor are they monsters from our side. They don't know how to use any spells or supernatural powers, they just rely on their own minions and fur abilities."

Naturally, there are ordinary creatures in the mysterious world, not all of them are monsters and beasts, otherwise the ordinary people in the mysterious world would have died out long ago.

And regardless of whether it is a monster or a beast, to put it bluntly, it is also an ordinary creature that is affected by the spiritual energy that escapes from the spiritual vein node and changes.It's just that their luck was not very good, so they failed to transform into spirit beasts or strange beasts, but turned into monsters and fierce beasts.

But no matter whether it is a monster or a fierce beast, no matter what species they were before, they will not retain the habits of the previous species.

For example, wolves are social creatures.

However, wolf creatures that have transformed into monsters will no longer retain their habit of living in groups—the only difference between wolf monsters and wolf beasts is that wolf monsters will not immediately attack their former companions, but will only attack them. It attacks only when it is hungry and lack of food; but the wolf-like beast is not, it will just tear everything alive in front of it immediately.

"Wait, you said just now...retaining the habits of the living species, so they...are dead things?"

"Half-dead and half-alive." After pondering for a while, Song Jue seemed to be looking for a suitable term, but did not speak immediately, "Creatures polluted by miasma will die. But it is not real death, but a kind of suspended animation similar to suspended animation." The state. This state is actually that the creatures are accepting the change of the miasma. Once the change is successful and completed, these 'dead' creatures will come back to life, but the body shape and so on will change."

"It's hard to say exactly what's going on with this kind of change. Because someone in this world tried to throw a group of chickens into the miasma, and as a result, quite a few of them survived and completed the mutation process, so it can be proved from this point , The impact of this miasma has nothing to do with body size. But when all these chickens were killed, it was found that the blood in their bodies had already dried up, basically no different from dead things."

"As for retaining the habits of the pre-living species, the conclusion was reached after a series of tests. Like wolves, lions, etc., they will still act in groups. There are also some people who like to hunt at night Only after entering the night can you see their more active scenes... But in fact, it is these creatures that like to move at night, and they are by no means less dangerous than demons."

"What about the insects polluted by miasma?" Su Anran asked.

"It's also an extremely dangerous creature, especially a spider. You have to be very careful."

Su Anran nodded clearly.

Song Jue was able to tell so much and such detailed information, if it wasn't for her extremely targeted intelligence collection, then it was all the experience she had accumulated during her exploration of this world.And if he wanted to accumulate so much experience, then the suffering he had suffered would not be a little bit. Su Anran began to wonder how big Song Jue's psychological shadow was.

The two did not stand still to communicate.

Instead, Song Jue led the way, talking while walking fast.

Fortunately, both of them are already in the Soul Condensation Realm. Although they are just entering the Soul Condensation Realm, they have already learned the communication skills of communicating through spiritual consciousness. In fact, Song Jue knew that Su Anran had already entered When she was in the Soul Condensation Realm, she was really taken aback. She never expected that Su Anran could advance to the Realm so quickly. You must know that Su Anran's strength before was only in the Realm of Life.

If Su Anran hadn't gotten used to Song Jue's temper, and knew that this person was really utterly scheming, he wouldn't have dared to reveal it.

In addition, Su Anran had already had an inoculation with Song Jue before: he pushed all the problems to the fortuitous opportunities he got from the Dragon Palace Ruins, and even hinted that because of his promotion too fast, his cultivation level is too low. There are hidden dangers, so entering the demon world this time also wants to polish the foundation well, and avoid the problem of unstable foundation caused by the rapid improvement of the realm.

Based on the combination of several factors, Song Jue, a stupid guy, really believed it - this is actually what shocked Su Anran even more. After all, he prepared a lot of excuses before, but now none of them are used. This made Su Anran feel like punching cotton.

That was quite helpless.

"You're lucky." Song Jue suddenly said on the way, "There is a ruined temple in front, let's wait there until the next day. After all, we have just entered here now, and I don't know how long this day has lasted, if you continue to advance rashly, if you can't find a foothold after entering the night, it will be quite dangerous."

Naturally, Su Anran would not refuse this kind of steady operation.

However, following the direction indicated by Song Jue, when Su Anran saw the ruined temple in front of him, he was shocked again.

Chapter 200 Interesting

The so-called ruined temple that Song Jue was referring to was not a Buddhist or Taoist temple like Xuanjie.

It was a large hall covering an area of ​​about [-] square meters.

It is a hall, not a temple.

The floor of this hall is not made of stone, but paved with wooden planks. There are twelve steps in front of the main entrance, and there are other guardrails around it.It's just that maybe because of the long time, the floors, wooden guardrails, wooden steps, and tiled roofs of the halls are all decayed and damaged to varying degrees.

The entire main hall looked dilapidated, which indeed fit the description of a "broken temple" that Song Jue said.

But Su Anran was not surprised by this.

What surprised him was that the floor of this hall was built in the air!

The floor was supported by pillars, raised above the ground—perhaps three feet above ground.Moreover, the column stands directly on the ground without foundation stone support, which is a test of all aspects such as the material used for the column and the calculation of the weight of the support, and even the soil moisture, hardness, and structure of the soil layer on the ground, etc. are also factors to be considered.

Of course, leaving these factors aside for now.

Just looking at the architectural style of this hall, what would most people think of?

There will be no associations.

Because the monks in the mysterious world don't know anything like Song Jue, they don't know the sword drawing technique, so naturally they don't have any superfluous associations.

But Su Anran is different.

Because there are such things as sword drawing in the world of demons, so when he suddenly saw this kind of Japanese-style dojo building suspended from the ground, he could have more associations—for example, this shrine architectural style, which is known in Japan. A professional term called "Shenmeizuo" is one of the oldest shrine architectural styles in Japan, and its representative work is the oldest and largest Ise Shrine in Japan.

The architectural features referred to by the so-called "made by the gods" are: the suspended floor above the ground, which means that the shrine is built by the gods, so it does not touch the mortal soil-this is similar to the construction style of Chinese temples "rooted on the ground". "There is an absolute gap in the concept-it is precisely because of this "idea" that no matter what kind of shrine in Japan, the construction of the inner palace must adopt this kind of suspended building above the ground.

In addition to "God-made", the other oldest shrine architectural style in Japan is "Taisha-made", and its masterpieces are Izumo Taisha and Shenhun Shrine.

Su Anran will recognize that this is a Shinto-style shrine, because the gate of this shrine is located in the middle - also known as Hirai; while the gate of the shrine built by Taisha is opened on the left or right, also It is opened on both sides instead of the middle, and this kind is called wife entry.

There is a saying that the gates of the "Taisha-zao" architectural style named after Izumo Taisha are opened on both sides because the shrine means the country of gods, and mortals entering the shrine means entering the country of gods to meet the gods, so they cannot go through the main entrance. You can only go through the side door, implying that ordinary people must recognize their own status-this point is similar to the Chinese saying of "opening the middle door".

If it weren't for the sword drawing technique, Su Anran would not have thought of these things.

But now, after knowing the sword-drawing technique and seeing this kind of Hefeng shrine building, Su Anran's guess about this demon world is a little clearer.

"Are there many shrines like this in this world?"

"Shrine?" Song Jue is not stupid. If she was stupid, she would not be able to master the sword-drawing technique, and she also deduced the sword-drawing technique that suits her, so she naturally quickly grasped the key points in Su Anran's words.

"Shrines, or temples, temples can be used, but the names are different." Su Anran said, "A building like this was called a shrine in the first era. After all, there would be no such thing as Buddhism and Taoism. You knew."

Anyway, Su Anran just bullied Song Jue for not knowing anything, and relying on Tai Yigu's reputation of "quite understanding of the First Era" in the mysterious world, he could talk nonsense—anyway, those who don't know how to explain, can't explain, explain For things that are not clear, all will be edited in the first era.

Of course, while saying this, he also briefly talked about the differences between "Taisha-made" and "Kami-made".

After listening to Su Anran's words, Song Jue tilted his head and thought for a while, then nodded: "There are quite a few. But I have only seen this kind of shrine made by gods, I have never seen a shrine built by a large shrine... Yes Now, there are obviously no such sayings as gods or immortals in the first era, so why is there such a saying of being made by gods and made by a great society?"

"It didn't exist in the first era, but it did exist in the second era." Su Anran once again began to talk nonsense in a serious manner, "Of course, this kind of saying is not the official way of calling the first era. There is a lack of refinement in this aspect, so we can only It follows the addressing method of the Second Era, although I don’t know why the people of the Second Era would say that.”

"Is that so?" Song Jue frowned slightly, always feeling weird.

"Of course." Su Anran nodded seriously, "I even know your sword drawing skills, do you think I still don't know about the shrine?"

"That's right." Song Jue thought for a while, and felt that what Su Anran said was reasonable, so he nodded and admitted.

Su Anran glanced at Song Jue.

But the eyes quickly looked away.

What he bullied was Song Jue's innocence.

This woman's understanding is good, and her strength is strong enough, but the problem is that her thinking is a bit straight: If you know more than me, then you know better than me. Since you know better than me, then you must be right. I just listen to you.

Su Anran didn't know how Song Jue survived today with this kind of thinking that was straighter than a straight man, but he didn't hate it anyway.

Because it is relatively simple to flicker, and there is no need to die too many brain cells.

Unlike Mu Qingfeng, who is full of all kinds of coquettish operations, and is a typical Zhongshan wolf and self-depraved personality-this kind of person, no matter whether he is successful or frustrated, will burst out his own shortcomings at once, and over time As time goes by, it continues to expand, and finally leads itself to the end of destruction.

And Song Jue?

Maybe it's because her thinking is too straight, or maybe she has a tenacity in her body, so when she was frustrated, she didn't degenerate or give up, but actively tried to find ways to break through the desperate situation.So she thought of the sword drawing technique, thought of the core of her fortune, and realized her own pursuit, so she entered the world of demons together with Su Anran, seeking opportunities to break through to a higher level.

After all, what Xuanjie said "breaking through to the Soul Condensation Realm and increasing one's lifespan by a thousand years" does not mean that as long as one enters the Soul Condensation Realm, one can live for 1000 years.

A more accurate statement is that after the second soul is condensed, the lifespan will gradually increase, and it is not until the dharma image is condensed that one can truly live for 1000 years.

So even though Song Jue has stepped into the Soul Condensation Realm now, she still only has two or 30 years of life left before she can condense her second soul—if she can't condense her second soul before then, probably In another ten years, she will age rapidly, and the blood energy and true energy in her body will also rapidly decay, and then there will be no possibility of moving forward.

This point is also the result that all monks who are approaching the end of their lifespan will inevitably face - if the body starts to show signs of aging, it will be almost impossible to break through the realm.

At this time, Song Jue confirmed that there are a lot of such shrines in the world of demons, and Su Anran is basically sure that this is definitely some kind of schizophrenia, who traveled to this world and left a legacy in this world.

It's just that the flow rate of time in the Ten Thousand Realms is different from that in the Mysterious Realm, and the time flow rate in the Mysterious Realm is also different from that on Earth.

Like Su Anran and Huang Zi, there is only a gap of seven years, but at least 6000 years have passed in Xuanjie.And Su Anran often stays in Ten Thousand Realms for a long time, ranging from a few days, tens of days to several months, but returning to the Mysterious Realm feels as if only a few hours or even a few days have passed.

Therefore, in terms of time flow, Su Anran did not dare to compare the mysterious world with the world of monsters, and naturally she had no way of guessing how long the secondary traveler who left behind the inheritance of sword drawing skills stayed in this world.

However, judging by the dilapidated state of this shrine, I am afraid that it will take quite a long time.

Entering the shrine, Song Jue and Su Anran walked cautiously.

It's not that I'm afraid of an ambush or danger.

With the strength of the two of them, as long as they are not big monsters, they are fearless. In terms of actual combat ability, Song Jue is not weaker than Su Anran. Even before Su Anran mastered the grenade and sword energy, Song Jue should be There is still more than that.But even if Su Anran has mastered the grenade and sword energy now, if he and Song Jue were to fight for life and death, he and Song Jue would probably be six or four—without using other special methods, he would be six and Song Jue would be four.

The reason why they walked cautiously was purely because they were afraid that if they stepped on the floor with a little force, they would have to tear down the whole floor to get their feet back—such an embarrassing scene happened to Su Anran just now.So much so that at this moment, to say that Su Anran and Song Jue were walking carefully, it would be better to say that they were walking here almost in the air.

"By the way, did you find your sword-drawing technique in the shrine?"

"No." Song Jue shook his head, "As I said before, I found it in a cave... But there are still a lot of books in those caves, but most of them are just stories and demon atlases, you know Yes, these things are meaningless to us, so I just don't care about them. Among all the books, only the book on drawing swords is the secret book of exercises."

Su Anran rolled her eyes.

That is to say, reincarnation in the myriad realms.

If it was a real infinite flow, someone like Song Jue would definitely not be able to live in the three worlds.

why?

In Infinity Stream, if you want to truly understand and explore a world, all relevant information about this world is the most important thing.Because only by obtaining enough information about this world, can we sort out more clues, and then obtain greater benefits and benefits.Only in this way can we quickly make accurate coping strategies and avoid death when encountering danger or other troubles.

In Unlimited Flow, harvest is important, but intelligence collection is the real top priority.

However, the situation in Wanjie is slightly different.

Because the monks in the mysterious world have many means, only those little monks who are really incapable are easy to die. Those monks who are really capable or come from a famous family, as long as they are not in a situation where they must die, generally they will not die easily.

Still take Song Jue as an example.

She was only in the natal realm before, and it was possible that she didn't even have the natal realm when she obtained the sword drawing technique, but she was still able to escape from the hands of a big monster, and she also got the sword drawing technique, which is enough to prove that she was There are also life-saving means.

But if the disciples of another sect encounter such a situation, such as the Tianluomen that Su Anran went to before, their disciples will inevitably end up dead if they encounter such a situation. This is the different result caused by the background up.

If Su Anran didn't have Soul Condensation Realm at this time, and he didn't have the Sword Immortal Token on him, his fate would not necessarily be better than that of Tianluomen's disciples when he encountered a big demon—only Shi Lezhi's less than ten seconds During the possessing time, even if there is a glimmer of life, but if the big monster pursues closely, Su Anran will still die in the end.But now that Su Anran has the strength of the Soul Condensation Realm, as long as he doesn't encounter a big monster of the level of Twelve Patterns, even if he can't beat him, at least he can escape.

"The next time you encounter something similar to biographical knowledge, pay more attention, it will be good for you." Su Anran said, "Not only in the world of demons, but also in other small worlds of myriad worlds...Information The collection work is the most important thing, only when you have enough information, can you understand these small worlds more clearly, and thus know some of their customs and secrets."

"Hi." Song Jue was somewhat disapproving, "In such a small world, what other secrets can we care about?"

"Sword drawing technique." Su Anran pointed to the Taidao that Song Jue had been holding in his hand since entering this world, "If you know the information and knowledge of this world, maybe you will know about the knife drawing technique." I also know where to go to find things that can improve your sword drawing skills when you enter this world next time."

The disapproval on Song Jue's face quickly disappeared.

"Also." Su Anran spoke again, "If you have learned about these shrines from those biographical secret books before, you will know that each shrine with different plaques actually represents a kind of inheritance. Even if Even if it is the same shrine where the plaque is hung, there will be some differences in details."

"For example, Yinliu has the distinctions of Xinyinliu, Taisheliu, and Yingliu. And Xinyinliu is divided into Yanagyu Xinyinliu and Shinto Xinyinliu. Even Liusheng Xinyinliu is different because of the difference between the north and the south. There are factions of the southern Yagyu Xinyin style and the northern Yanagyu Xinyin style, among which the northern style Xinyin style is a school developed on the basis of sword drawing."

Listening to Su Anran babbling about these things, Song Jue once again used her intelligence: listen to the key points.

"You mean, every shrine has a different school of inheritance?!"

Su Anran was stunned for a moment, then he gave Song Jue a sideways glance.

Girl, your ability to listen to important points is really strong.
