Chapter 1072: The Truth
"Woo!" the little fox stretched out his paw and pointed eagerly ahead.
"Well, we found a lot of treasures over there last time, but once it returns to the entity from the void, the little fox's body will not be able to withstand the pressure here, so it can only look at it, and my words ...... I don't have the arms to carry these things. The ghost bead said helplessly.
"I see, let's go. Yu Ling floated forward like a ghost, and he also faintly felt the pressure of the surrounding ghostly substance, but those pressures could not fall on him.
Staying for a short time should be fine, right?
Yu Ling secretly estimated that he touched it, and suddenly felt that the surrounding terrain was a little strange: "By the way, are we in a very big pit?"
Although the ground is flat at first glance, there is a faint upward arc in the distance, like a rising mountain.
However, unlike the environment of the frog at the bottom of the well, the top of this super pit is "covered", and when you look up, you can see that it is full of uneven stone walls.
"You're quite observant, it's a pit, but because the range is too large, the slope is relatively gentle, and it's hard to see at first glance. Do you see the scattered passages in the distance?"
Yu Ling looked around, and sure enough, he saw many small black dot-like "dog holes", which were very similar to the one he had crawled over before.
"Although this big pit is capped, there are actually a lot of gaps on the edge, and this is how the wild beasts outside come in, but today they are going to hold a ceremony, so you can't see any traces of the wild beasts here, otherwise they usually appear in groups, and the further you go to the edge, the more you are. "The ghost beads are very experienced and authentic.
"Why does it feel like the ground is wet?" Yu Ling had already floated some way away.
"Strictly speaking, we are only near the bottom of the pit, and the real bottom is actually a puddle of water...... No, it can't be said to be a puddle of water, it's a small lake outside, but it's not enough for this super pit, most of those treasures are floating in the water, and some are sinking underneath. ”
"But you have to consider that the small lake has been corroded by countless rotting rats, and I think the Immortal Realm Beast will be able to choke on the water, so for safety reasons, we can just take the treasure on the water. "The ghost bead is very thoughtful.
Yu Ling was silent for a few seconds, but still spoke: "But I have soul power." ”
"Huh?" Ghost Bead was stunned, and didn't react for a while.
"Wouldn't it be nice to use soul power to fish it up, why use your hands to fish it. Yuling added.
"......" Ghost Bead didn't say anything for a long time, and finally held back a sentence: "You are cheating!"
"Woo!" the little fox was upset, and immediately began to accuse this little friend of not taking the right position.
"But I'm curious, those treasures have been soaked in the wastewater for so long, are you sure they can still be used?" Yu Ling expressed doubt.
"Why can't you use it? They all come with their own light mask protection, and those treasures that have been corroded by the light mask obviously don't need to be rescued, but the others definitely don't matter. "Ghost Bead Road.
The more Yu Ling listened, the more strange he felt, what was the setting of the light mask protection? Why did it sound like there was a formation barrier?
Before he could speak, a dull hum suddenly sounded from underground.
"Did the ground shake just now?" Yu Ling could only hear voices in her nether state, but she didn't have any physical sense of touch.
"Like, yes, so their ritual should begin. As soon as the ghost bead's words fell, Yu Ling saw a black shadow "whoosh" across the air, and then exploded into a black blood mist.
"Oh, it's disgusting, that's a rotting rat, let's get out of the way. "The ghost bead is quite disgusted.
“...... Aren't you in a state of darkness, and you can't touch you? Yuling was speechless.
"But it's polluting my vision so badly!" said the ghost bead in a stern tone.
"Woo woo!" the little fox urged dissatisfiedly.
"Oh yes, what are you talking about, they destroy a lot of treasures in every round of rituals, we have to hurry up, or we won't need it later. "The ghost bead also said.
Yu Ling had been floating for so long, and he had almost adapted to the netherworld, so he picked up his speed quite neatly, and soon came to a deep black "lake".
"Gollum ......"
I don't know what color the lake was, but now it looks so filthy that it looks like it's emitting hundreds of tons of industrial waste, and it's filled with disgusting bubbles.
In stark contrast, there are clusters of light with brilliant colors, like pearls scattered in the hands of the goddess, floating in various positions on the surface of the lake, and even some lying quietly on the wet ground.
"Bang bang bang!"
A few more rotting rats rolled out of the passage, their fragile bodies barely able to withstand the pressure of this place, and in less than two seconds they would explode into a thick black liquid that would splash down on the lake and the surrounding area.
Many of the treasures in the light cluster were shocked and fell from the lake to the nearby ground, some of which were able to keep the light mask intact, but many more were dimmed and eroded into waste by the dead liquid of the rotting rats.
"You let me out of the netherworld. "Yuling has made a three-character formula for rain, leaves, and cocoons to prevent being splashed by the acid of those rotting rats.
"Be careful, these rotting rats have swallowed blood cores, so the acid is especially powerful, if you can't stand it, just say it in advance, it's a big deal that we'll come back tomorrow, although it may be a lot less......" Ghost Bead said.
Yuling: "...... so your last sentence is clearly encouraging me to take risks, isn't it?"
"Brushed" the ground, and I don't know how the ghost bead operates, anyway, Yuling suddenly returned to the entity and reconnected with the real world.
The first thing that came to me was the indescribably rich stench, like hundreds of garbage heaps were merged together, and then fermented in a secret room for thousands of years, and any smell of sweat and feet was sour.
Yu Ling immediately closed her breath, but she still felt an irrepressible nausea and nausea, and even her head was a little dizzy, it can only be said that this stench has exceeded the limit of human imagination.
He didn't care about carefully selecting those treasures, so he directly used his soul power to pull more than a dozen light clusters scattered on the ground according to the principle of proximity, and threw them into the spirit ring without looking, and it was a small space isolated from other items alone.
"Quick, and those in the lake!" Ghost Bead hurriedly said as he saw that the rotten rats were getting denser and denser.
Yu Ling's soul power suddenly covered the entire lake, and just by hearing a "bang", he pulled hundreds of light clusters over, and he didn't even know what was inside.
At a certain moment, Yu Ling suddenly noticed that the Sect Master's wrench in his hand emitted a faint light, and this light ...... When he entered the Yun Treasure Palace, he flashed.
Wait a minute...... This thing seems to be a little wrong? What does his treasure have to do with the Sect Master's Finger Pull? What needs to be recognized with a token here?
"Huh?" the little fox was excited, but Yuling stopped, which made it anxious.
"What's wrong?" Ghost Bead also sensed that Yu Ling's expression was wrong.
"Wait a minute...... It seems that the treasures here cannot be taken for them. Yu Ling finally reacted, and he realized that his thinking had gone into a mistake from the beginning.
"Huh?" the little fox's eyes widened in shock, looking very cute.
"If you take it, you will be in trouble, these wild beasts...... I don't know how they do it, but they do have a plan and a goal. Yuling slowly clarified his thoughts.
"W-What do you mean?" said the ghost bead, stunned.
"This is not the place of origin, but the eye of the Beast Valley formation!" Yu Ling said in a deep voice.
"And these treasures are specially placed here to provide energy for the formation, as for the so-called ritual...... It's the beast that pollutes the treasure with rotting rats, thus destroying the operation of the formation!"
