Chapter 555: Hundred Years of Lonely (Part 1)
This giant pit is called Tiankeng in Qin Yin, and is called Tiankeng in Yunliu, which is called Shendi.
Salin and others entered the sinkhole and were very cautious. However, they slowly went down the edge to the bottom of the sinkhole. Salin found that there was really not much danger here. There were monsters in the sinkhole, all of which were small, and the largest one was only more than one meter long. There was not much water accumulation in the sinkhole, and there were obviously underground rivers that could drain the rainwater.
Without the help of the magic compass, Salin simply used astrology to calculate it. It was already night, and although the starlight could not be distinguished by the naked eye, under the Elemental Eye of Salin, the power of the stars still appeared clearly in the clouds and mist, scattered at the bottom of the pit.
Starlight guides the direction. Salin's ninth-level astrology is not very powerful, and it can roughly determine the entrance to the temple. The error is only more than 500 meters. The space in the sinkhole is not large, just equivalent to a small town, with strange rocks everywhere on the ground. Salin quickly locked the position, took out the ring of the gift, and started to test it.
Searching within a radius of 500 meters is not difficult even if it is slow.
After searching for about half an hour, the Gift Ring finally sensed the opening of the temple.
This place happened to be a rock crack, which could accommodate the incoming and out of the demon gods after Naris transformed. Black fog was shrouded under the crack. After Salin released the power of faith, crackling sounds made in the black fog, and flames burned.
The black fog did not dissipate after being burned, but became more intense. However, the toxins in the fog were burned clean by the flames. A passage was opened in the black fog. Naris turned into a demon, holding a gray memory in her hand, and was the first to jump down.
She had already entered and left the temple a lot, so she knew that even if there was danger, it was not great. Unfortunately, her experience killed people and fell more than 500 meters deep. Nelise had not seen the ground yet, but a huge vine flew out from beside her and wrapped around her feet.
Neris's Sword of Rules quickly cut down, cutting off half of the vine. The power of the Sword of Rules made the vine unbearable and shrank back with a whoosh.
At this time, Salin had already jumped down with his people. His body was wrapped in a water-shaped shield. The surface of the water-shaped shield was shining, illuminating hundreds of meters around.
There was still a big pit under the big pit. Salin was very depressed. In the vertical passage, various plant root systems and vines rushed out to capture the target. What is the Goddess of Nature doing? The plant root systems in this passage have an attack power comparable to those of senior magicians.
Neris is not afraid of holding the sword of rules. Salin herself has a water-width shield, and those root systems and vines dare not touch the lightning light on it. Sicca and Erinno are at ease in this root system. Both of them have the ability to manipulate natural creatures. Although they are not too high, it is still easy to avoid being attacked by the creatures in front of them.
Nicholas pulled Isabella over, and the fallen scepter in his hand emitted a faint gray light, and he could finally avoid the attack. The two Golden Sword Saints and Dong had to cut off these attacks one by one with their own strength.
Salin keenly felt that the flow rate of time was accelerating. He could perceive that it was because he had practiced in the Astrology Tower. It had only dropped by a hundred meters, and the flow rate of time here was almost the same as that of the Astrology Tower.
This temple of the Goddess of Nature is actually a place that changes the speed of time.
The speed of everyone's whereabouts accelerated. Salin had no choice but to release the Cloud Technique and enveloped everyone in it. In the clouds, tornadoes, wind blades, fireballs, and snowflakes danced, crushing, cutting, burning, and freezing the roots of the approaching plants.
The flow of time accelerated, and Salin felt that his falling speed was also accelerating. Fortunately, this speed was constantly adjusted and it continued to fall for about ten miles before Salin suddenly felt touching the ground.
First, the clouds and mist were dispersed by the powerful impact force, and then the water-width shield could not protect everyone, and it broke in a flash. Salin and others' flying ability was limited here. With this impact, Salin felt that the bones on his body were about to be broken. If Shika hadn't hugged him in time, it would have been inevitable that he would have been injured.
"How are you?" Salin released a fluorescence technique, illuminating the surroundings clearly.
There was a sound of moaning around, and everyone was caught off guard when they approached the ground. The falling speed was sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and no one had noticed that it was already coming to the end ten meters away from the ground.
Nicholas was the least injured. His depravity magic was not affected here, but the magician was not good at flying, so he specially protected Isabella.
The space in front is huge, and Salin doesn't need to search and see the tall temple. Compared with other temples that have been to, the appearance of this temple is the most magnificent.
The twenty-four pillars outside the hall are more than 100 meters high. The door of the temple is open, and Salin can see the altar inside the door from here. There is nothing on the altar, only various reliefs, which seem to be flowing on the walls, constantly changing.
Salin distributes magic fluid, Nicholas heals everyone's injuries, Salin and Shika walk to the gate of the temple and look inward.
The time flows faster in this hall. Salin looked in and saw the carvings on the walls, which were at least ten times faster than outside the door.
Salin raised his hand and released an ice bomb, which flew up high in the sky, burning and illuminating the wider area.
This is a huge independent space, with only four main halls, about a distance away. Salin looked at the four temples and began to ponder.
"Master, there may be nothing here." Neris released the demons to search. These demons who were specially used to search for treasure equipment had their eyesight very high, and none of them reported to Neris any discoveries.
The materials used to build the main hall are not ordinary. They can maintain a temple for at least tens of thousands of years, which is considered an extremely high-end thing. However, the main function of these building materials is to maintain the time flow here. Salin didn't know whether he should take the temple away.
"Let the demons come in and take a look."
"Yes, master." Neris summoned a weak demon and let the demon walk into the hall in front of Salin. After the demon enters, his movements immediately become fast. That is the time flowing in the hall is too fast, which is more than ten times different from outside the door.
"Nelise, let the demon measure how big the space is." Salin ordered. The space here is not large, and it seems that you can see through everything with the Elemental Eye, but the time flow rate in each place here is different, and only the hall is stable. Therefore, the judgment of the Elemental Eye is not accurate.
"What do you think?"
Everyone looked at each other, and they followed Salin over with a clear purpose, in order to find all the equipment in the temple that could increase their strength. Salin had already made a demonstration, and the previous temple was dismantled by him.
"Lord, the temple here cannot be demolished. If it is demolished, we cannot afford the turbulence of time." Nicholas spoke. He knew that the divine art practice reached a certain level and could control the time flow rate on a large scale. There is such ability in the prophecy technique, but the control area is too narrow, and it is generally attacked by individuals.
"Hey!" Salin was not disappointed, but said, "I want to go in and practice. The time flow here is much faster than on the Meers Continent. Every time we drop by one meter, there will be changes. The time flow in the hall is the most stable, probably tens of millions of times that outside."
After hearing Salin's judgment, everyone was also somewhat expectant. If this is the case, everyone can practice here and increase their strength to a certain extent before leaving. Salin happens to have powerful enemies that are difficult to fight against. If they can advance, at least they will not be afraid of enemies like the referee in the future.
"You all have no objection?" Salin asked strangely.
"You are the lord!" Su's answer was recognized by everyone, and Dong did not refute such a thing. If he wanted to advance, he must first eliminate the body that was hurt by the Pope, and it also takes time.
The space created by Goddess Meles turned out to be a common place for cultivation in ancient times.
The six-yuan space created by Rafal is also somewhat similar, but the difference is that the time flow rate of the six-yuan space is limited, and its biggest function is to provide powerful elemental power, far exceeding the elemental badges and elemental creatures mastered by Salin.
Salin smiled, raised his legs and was about to walk into the hall. Zuola pulled him and said, "Let's go in first, one by one, there's no problem staying for a day, lord will enter again."
Salin did not refuse either. Zola bypassed Salin and entered with his sword.
There was indeed no danger in the hall. After Zola entered, his wrist guards did not react. Salin and others watched Zola walk along the wall inside and search for dangerous traps. It took almost a few minutes for Zola to walk around the hall, and then walked up to the altar. The altars were empty. Zola lowered her head to observe the materials of the altar. After thinking for a while, she turned around to recruit.
Nicholas took the initiative to walk up and entered the hall. He also learned from Zola to search for dangerous places. The space in the hall was only more than 300 meters wide. After searching, Nicholas found no problems.
Then there was Erinno. Her elf entered the hall and used the elf's perception and skills to explore, but still found no danger. Salin said at this time: "No need to find it. This is the place for us to practice, and it should be almost collapsed."
Shika was shocked and then understood Salin's words. It was only after the temple was opened that it started to operate. Before that, the flow rate of time below was equal to the ground. Only when someone opened the temple would the magic of Goddess Meles.
The building materials here are ordinary, at least in those days. For the level 18 gods, they can completely build a space that has been running. Ten thousand years is nothing. The materials here cannot last for that long.
This is a place for the goddess to prepare for cultivation for future generations. Because the time flows too fast, the temple will also decay. Salin couldn't calculate when the magic will end, so he could only try his best to make use of this period.
Salin did not allow others to stop him and walked directly into the temple and stepped onto the altar.
After entering, the Elemental Eye finally stabilized and could observe the materials of the altar. The entire hall uses the altar as the core and uses divine techniques.
