Chapter 1343: The Bridge of Nine Deaths
Looking at this button, Chen Ping hesitated for a moment.
This pitch-black cave should also be regarded as a Jedi in the Ten Thousand Realms Mountain Range, what kind of danger is hidden in it, even Chen Ping can't be sure, pressing this button, whether there will be a turnaround, or will let him and Xiaobai fall into the danger of death, Chen Ping has no certainty.
However, thinking of the previous coercion, the scene that disappeared immediately after feeling his human breath, Chen Ping took a deep breath.
I can only gamble!
There is indeed an exit above, although Chen Ping has not tried, but there is a certain possibility that he can go out, after all, he came in through the black light curtain.
But the problem was that Chen Ping didn't know if there were still soul eaters in the small valley outside.
He no longer has Storm Blood Grass, even if his strength has broken through to the level of the innate fourth layer, and his combat power is comparable to the peak of the innate fifth layer, but after all, it is not comparable to a half-step foundation building, once he encounters a soul devouring insect, he will definitely die!
So now, Chen Ping seems to have only one choice left in front of him.
After a moment of silence, Chen Ping slowly raised his arm, and then resolutely pressed the small button on the stone wall!
The button seemed to be a little difficult, but it was still pressed by Chen Ping.
And at the moment when the button was pressed, a ray of light instantly burst out from the small ball next to it!
This light was so bright that even Chen Ping narrowed his eyes slightly, but the explosion of this light was only for a moment, and it soon became soft, and in the subtle flickering, everything around him was illuminated.
Chen Ping was stunned for a moment, his eyes full of astonishment.
Is this actually a lamp?
Although it is different from the electric light on the earth, it is indeed a lighting appliance, and this ball, which seems to be a whole, can emit light in itself, a bit like the legendary night pearl.
Just after Chen Ping pressed the button, he felt that there seemed to be an aura in the stone wall that was transported into this ball, which should be the effect of this aura, yes, this night pearl can emit light on its own.
However, Chen Ping also had a black line on his face, he really didn't expect that in such a weird cave, the button on the stone wall was actually the switch of a lamp?
This doesn't match the script, does it?
Chen Ping sighed helplessly, and glanced at the round balls and switches that were on the stone wall every ten meters, it seemed that these things should all be similar to night pearls.
But in this cave, except for these things that are slightly abnormal, there are no clues to leave in other places, and Chen Ping can only try them one by one.
In a cave with a radius of thousands of meters, there are hundreds of such night pearls, but with Chen Ping's speed, in just a few minutes, almost all of the night pearls have been lit up by Chen Ping one by one!
And at this moment, the cave that was originally pitch black is already as bright as day!
At the moment when Chen Ping lit up the last night pearl, in the entire cave, a sudden change occurred!
A dull sound of machine operation echoed in the cave, Chen Ping's heart tightened, and then he returned to Xiao Bai's side on the ground like lightning and hugged Xiao Bai horizontally.
After going through the previous events, especially after Chen Ping knew the reason why Xiao Bai passed out in a coma, he also had a little different feelings about Xiao Bai, and Chen Ping was reluctant to put Xiao Bai into the space ring until he had to.
After all, in Chen Ping's eyes at this moment, Xiaobai is no longer a medicinal herb in his original impression, but a living person!
The sound of the machine gradually expanding, and finally, the entire cave was filled with a loud bang!
A few minutes later, Chen Ping suddenly turned his head and looked in one direction of the cave, where the mountain wall began to tremble slightly, but only a portal size area was trembling, but the surroundings were still not moving!
Chen Ping immediately dodged and came to the trembling mountain wall.
Originally, when Chen Ping investigated, he hadn't found any clues, but at this moment, this mountain wall the size of a portal was not integrated with the surrounding mountain walls!
Chen Ping frowned slightly, and then saw that the mountain wall was like a stone door, shaking off the stone fragments on it with the vibration, and then gradually revealing the shape of the portal, but there was no sign of it about to open, and at the same time, the sound in the entire cave gradually became weaker.
Until all the voices died down, the stone door in front of him still did not open.
Chen Ping tried to push the stone door, but even if he tried his best, there was no way to open the stone door, and he only trembled slightly.
According to the trembling amplitude of this stone gate, Chen Ping could vaguely guess that if he had the strength above the foundation building period, he might be able to forcibly push the stone gate open, but now, his strength was far from enough!
And in this Ten Thousand Realms Mountain Range, there is not even a single demon beast in the foundation building period, this stone gate, is it impossible to open at all?
For a moment, a trace of doubt and thought appeared in Chen Ping's eyes.
A moment later, Chen Ping tried to squeeze a drop of blood out of his body and smeared it on the stone door.
This was the only method Chen Ping could think of.
Because in Chen Ping's opinion, this weird cave is very likely to be related to human beings!
Maybe the breath of human beings, the blood, can open this stone gate!
Sure enough, although such a guess can only be regarded as a gamble, Chen Ping was right.
After the blood was smeared on the stone gate, it was strangely directly absorbed by the stone gate, and there was not even a trace of blood left.
Then, the stone door trembled slightly, and slowly opened automatically.
Chen Ping suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and the sense of crisis in his heart instantly weakened a lot.
It seems that his guess is correct, this cave is indeed related to humans, and in this case, with his own human identity, he should not encounter too much danger in this cave.
Thinking of this, Chen Ping prepared to walk into this stone gate.
But at this moment, a voice without the slightest emotion, but incomparably majestic, suddenly sounded in Chen Ping's ears!
"As a descendant of the Six Saints, you can enter on your own, but other than that, no other beings are allowed to enter!"
This voice exploded directly in Chen Ping's ears, like thunder, which scared Chen Ping!
But then, Chen Ping understood, and after glancing at Xiaobai in his arms, he hurriedly raised his voice and said: "Senior, this is a friend of the junior, in order to save the junior, I will spare my life, please be kind to the senior!"
There was no response, and a sense of danger swirled around Chen Ping.
It seems that as long as he enters the portal with Xiaobai, there will be a life crisis!
After Chen Ping hesitated for a moment, he reluctantly included Xiaobai in the space ring.
However, when he tried to get ready to take a step, the feeling of danger was still there, and it was all focused on his finger wearing the spatial ring!
Chen Ping's heart was suddenly awe-inspiring!
This inexplicable sense of crisis made Chen Ping dare not be careless at all.
He was eighty percent sure that once he stepped into the portal like this, he might not be in any danger, but the mysterious existence in this cave might be able to directly erase the little white inside through the space ring!
If this danger was aimed at Chen Ping, he might still have the courage to break through, but this danger was obviously aimed at Xiaobai, and Chen Ping also hesitated a little.
In the end, Chen Ping still couldn't let Xiao Bai experience this uncertain danger, so he simply took Xiao Bai out of the space ring, gently placed it in the center of the cave, and then returned to the stone gate.
In the dark, there seemed to be a vague breath that swept over Chen Ping's body, and the sense of crisis had gradually dissipated.
Chen Ping turned his head to look at Xiaobai, and after a moment of silence, he stepped into the stone gate!
At the moment when Chen Ping stepped into the stone gate, after the entire stone gate opened, there seemed to be a black light flashing in the deep passage inside, and the stone gate was sealed again in an instant, and even the stone gate itself was quickly closed.
In the cave, there was only Xiaobai who was unconscious, although her injuries had completely recovered, and even her strength had recovered to the peak, but there was a force that suppressed Xiaobai's consciousness, making her unable to wake up at all.
After entering the stone gate, Chen Ping also flashed black light behind him, and then, the stone gate had disappeared.
Chen Ping looked at the passages in front of him that gradually lit up one by one, and he didn't know how far it stretched, so he could only try to walk forward.
In Chen Ping's feeling, he seemed to have walked a distance of several thousand meters, and after the turn in front of him, there were nine different forks in the road!
Chen Ping was stunned for a moment, and looked at the nine forks in the road in amazement.
The nine forks lead in different directions, each with a black curtain of light, and in the open space before these nine forks, a stone monument is erected.
Chen Ping stepped forward and gently swept away the dust from the stele, revealing the handwriting on it.
"Shennong Cave, Nine Dead Bridge, Nine Dead and Not Dead, for the first line of life, inheritance of the treasure, waiting for fate!"
Chen Ping was silent for a long time.
The meaning of this is very clear, although it is an ancient seal script, Chen Ping does not know it, but this stele seems to be very magical, even if you don't know these words, but as long as you have seen it, you can understand the meaning.
The nine forks in the road are the so-called bridges of nine deaths, which are simply nine levels that contain a great death crisis!
As long as you pass through nine levels, you can be considered to have cleared the level, and you can survive and pass on the treasure!
However, these nine dead words hardly need to be considered, and you can feel the infinite crisis contained in them!
But Chen Ping was silent, not because he was afraid of danger, but because he was thinking, who stayed here?
Shennong Cave?
Shennong Chen Ping has heard of it, it should be a character in the ancient legends on the earth, one of the ancestors of mankind!
As for the Ancient Six Saints mentioned by the voice before, according to Chen Ping's knowledge, it seems that there is no Shennong Clan!
The six saints of the ancients should be Hongjun Laozu, Taishang Laojun, Yuan Shi Tianzun, Tongtian Sect Master, and Zhun Ti, a total of six.
But a legend is a legend after all, what does Shennong have to do with the six ancient saints?
For a while, Chen Ping was also a little uncertain.
In addition, Chen Ping had another guess in his heart.
Could it be that the so-called six saints are the existence of the six manifest saints in ancient times?
After all, there is a holy word!
Chen Ping shook his head slightly, threw away all kinds of speculations in his mind, raised his head, and looked at the nine forks in the road in front of him.
Although the nine black curtains were dark, they seemed to be a little lighter, and it seemed that the passage behind the dark curtain could be seen, but there was nothing in it, just an empty passage.
As for the top of these nine forks, there are several handwriting engraved on them.
Chen Ping stepped forward and looked at the handwriting carefully.
They are also ancient seal scripts, which are difficult to read, but Chen Ping still understands the meaning of these handwritings.
The handwriting of the nine openings is different, as if the names of the nine openings are the same.
Four of the caves are the green dragon and white tiger vermilion bird Xuanwu.
The remaining five cave entrances are a little strange, they are Nirvana Road, God Killing Road, Jizo Road, Tiger Soul Road, and Return Road!
There are a total of nine caves, each of which seems to be different, but Chen Ping has no way to judge the characteristics of these nine caves from their names.
After being silent for a moment, Chen Ping took a deep breath and did not hesitate, he directly chose Xuanwu Road, one of the nine cave entrances, and stepped in!
