Chapter 953: Eye of the Formation
Qi Xuansu quickly smashed the ghost soldiers until they once again became scattered armor on the ground.
Just as Zhang Yuelu had said, these former divine kingdom guards truly lacked sentience. The nearby ghost soldiers had all been dispatched by Qi Xuansu, yet the ones farther away showed no reaction at all, unmoved even while their comrades suffered.
“Where do we go next?” Qi Xuansu looked toward Zhang Yuelu and Little Yin.
Zhang Yuelu also took out a compass, but hers was clearly superior to Qi Xuansu’s, at least a treasure. Qi Xuansu was certain this was new. It was evident how swift her family’s backing came.
Lowering her gaze to the compass, Zhang Yuelu personally led the way.
Soon, the trio arrived at the center of the city, where a vast Buddhist temple was located.
However, the temple was strangely out of place. It did not seem like it had been built here originally. Rather, it was as if it had fallen from the heavens, crushing whatever had stood here before, usurping the space, and clashing with its surroundings.
Now, the temple was stained with black, its former splendor and solemnity gone. Like this pocket realm, the temple exuded decay and ruin.
Around the temple were countless visible cracks crisscrossing the ground. They were about a person’s width, some stretching over 30 meters, while the others were around 3 meters.
Upon reaching this place, Qi Xuansu could also sense the flow of energy that was leaking outward through these fissures.
From this, it was clear that the temple was the very core of the pocket realm.
If this was truly one of Izanagi’s five sealed sites, then the presence of a Buddhist temple made sense. After all, it had been the Buddhist Sect that aided the Three Noble Children in defeating Izanagi. So it was only natural they would construct the core of the seal.
