#588 - There is another secret
Liang Yue didn't delay either. After landing, he went straight into the cave.
Although with his current cultivation, the power of the Tenseigan alone was enough for him to maintain night vision in most situations, out of habit, Liang Yue summoned the Innate Thunderfire Wood Image from behind him the moment he entered the cave.
In an instant, the mixed light of purple, blue, and red illuminated the surroundings, making it as bright as day.
"Ha~! ! Woo wah~ Woo woo woo~ Wah! !"
Liang Yue's abrupt intrusion, coupled with the bright light, immediately alerted the inhabitants of the cave.
A quick glance revealed the figure of a leopard in a corner of the cave.
At this moment, the leopard was crouching low, its back arched, its fur standing on end, its mouth wide open, revealing a mouthful of good teeth, trying to intimidate him.
Beside this creature, there was a scattered pile of bones of various sizes.
Obviously, this resident had been living here for quite some time, in a sense, like a cuckoo occupying a magpie's nest after the original owner had left.
However, Liang Yue didn't make things difficult for it. He took a few steps to the side, clearing the exit of the cave, and then, on his own, focused his gaze on the stone door deep inside the cave.
Seeing this, the leopard immediately became cautious, roaring at him while carefully approaching the exit.
Then, with a whoosh, it darted out of the cave and disappeared into the night...
The stone door in front of him was ancient and simple. Although it wasn't the kind of exquisite object that had been polished in many ways, it was full of a solemn aura and was very thick.
On the outside of the stone door, there were two beasts carved on the left and right, but now they were covered with cobwebs and dust. Liang Yue had no interest in exploring the origin of these stone carvings.
So, after a brief flash of light in his eyes, confirming that there were no hidden mechanisms on the other side of the stone door, he waved his hand.
The stone door in front of him was immediately pushed open inward by an invisible force.
Unexpectedly, the air that rushed towards him didn't have any decaying smell. In fact, it even carried some dryness and freshness.
Seeing this, Liang Yue didn't doubt it. With his current knowledge, he wouldn't be surprised by this little effect.
Stepping forward, he was greeted by a wide staircase extending downwards, about dozens of steps.
The staircase was connected to a space that was estimated to be half the size of a football field. The ground was flat, and the top of the cave also had a simple carved work.
As Liang Yue entered, the entire space was quickly illuminated, revealing every detail.
Looking up again, the carved work on the ceiling was not some Taoist mythology or ancestral legend, but a large piece of floating clouds carved on the original uneven stone surface of the cave ceiling.
A closer look revealed that it had the appearance of clouds rolling and unfolding, and vaguely carried some meaning of water waves.
This feeling was very wonderful~
Around the space, leaning against the cave walls, stood several square stone lamps.
At the edges, there were also several steps, each connecting to a stone door.
Liang Yue easily saw the scene behind the stone door with a sweep of his Tenseigan.
A simple but fully functional residential area, a small library, a place that seemed to be a kitchen, with firewood still remaining inside, a miscellaneous storage room, a practice room.
In addition, there was even a small garden that seemed to be a medicinal herb garden.
Moreover, there was a hidden passage leading to the deeper underground in the basement of the library.
"It's really complete~"
The most complete and practical thing was probably half a volume of Taoist talisman analysis that had been eroded by time beyond recognition.
After picking and choosing for a while, Liang Yue threw everything he could still read into his Tenseigan space, and then followed the underground passage he found in the library, heading deeper into the mountain.
After passing through a long, narrow spiral staircase, he finally arrived at a hollow cave in the rock under the mountain, or rather, the ground.
This place was intricate, with complex paths and simple trails built underfoot, but they were quite confusing, and seemed to contain elements of some formations.
It could cause a certain degree of confusion to people's senses and spirits, and one would easily get trapped in it.
Fortunately, it was Liang Yue who came, with a high enough realm.
Even if he didn't understand any formations, he could use his powerful divine sense to cover the surrounding complex passages and bring them into his mind.
So, after about a few minutes, he slowly came to the entrance leading to the deeper underground along the correct path~
Walking down the steps, what appeared before Liang Yue seemed to be a river embankment and an already dried-up underground ancient riverbed.
It stretched in all directions, dark and gloomy, and he didn't know where it led.
On the opposite side of the riverbed, surrounded by a circle of shimmering light, there was also a Taoist temple carefully arranged with white jade and wood.
Solemn, dignified, quiet, yet with an indescribable sense of eeriness.
This, I'm afraid, is where the main body of the Tianzong Taoist temple is located!
Looking at the exquisite Taoist architectural complex on the opposite side, and the reliefs and cave pits on the large stone walls further in the back, Liang Yue couldn't wait to turn his Tenseigan's gaze over.
After a moment, he withdrew his gaze, and a hint of disappointment appeared on his face.
He scratched his temples subconsciously, and muttered to himself with a twitch of his lips.
"I didn't expect that this is actually a burial ground, no wonder I felt a bit of yin energy surrounding it."
"Speaking of which, could it be that my identity is not just a disciple of the Tianzong Sect, but also a part-time tomb keeper here?"
"However, there are indeed some collections in this tomb, and there is also a special library, could it be specially left for future generations like me?".
"On the contrary, in those traditional tombs, the coffins that should have contained valuable items the most, besides the corpses, rarely have any burial objects."
Looking at the architectural complex on the opposite side, for a moment, many questions arose in Liang Yue's mind, but he immediately threw them to the back of his head.
With a stride, his whole person instantly appeared on the opposite bank of the dried-up riverbed, on the small square in front of the combination of the Taoist temple and the tomb.
