Chapter 429: The Underground Palace
In the era of ancient gods and demons, it has been more than 30,000 years ago, and the gods and demons at that time were the same as the current camps, but the gods and demons were born mortal enemies, and their battles were much fiercer than now.
Almost all the clansmen of that period would build a tomb after their death, and there would usually be many funerary goods in it.
This is similar to the emperors and princes in the ancient human world, except that each of the gods and demons has the right to build a tomb and arrange burial goods.
After opening the hole, Zhang Zhao jumped in first.
I don't know how long it took him to fall before he stepped on the ground.
Unleashing the ghost fire, Zhang Zhao saw the scene around him.
This is a secret passage, and the walls on both sides of the secret passage are carved with many ancient patterns, including gods and demons fighting, ancient beasts, and even many babies with their heads separated. These seem to be patterns carved based on documentary facts, which shows how tragic the war was during the period of the ancient gods and demons, and even newborn babies would not let go.
"What's going on down there?"
At this time, Chen Yang's voice came from the entrance of the cave above, and after looking around, seeing that there was no big problem, Zhang Zhao shouted: "It's okay down there, you can come down." ”
After a while, Chen Yang and Murong Xue also jumped down.
"Boom"
Chen Yang sacrificed his own true fire of the Five Madhi and illuminated the surrounding scene with Zhang Zhao.
When they saw the patterns on the walls on both sides, the two of them were also stunned, shocked by the tragic patterns.
"Let's go, let's go ahead and have a look. ”
As they walked, they suddenly saw a light, so they quickened their pace and walked towards the light.
After moving about 300 meters, Zhang Zhao and the three of them were shocked by the scene in front of them.
In front of them, there was an underground palace, where the three of them were located, was a high platform, and beyond that, there were countless graves.
The graves were next to each other, and each pit contained three to five coffins. In this big pit, there are more than 2,000 large and small graves. I don't know how many of these coffins there are. At the very end of this tomb, there was a tall throne, and on top of the throne was a skeleton wearing black armor and exuding a dark red aura from top to bottom.
The skeleton held a broadsword, two feet long and one palm wide, and even after thousands of years of wind and frost, it still glowed with light blue.
Seeing this scene, Murong Xue's face turned overjoyed and said, "We were lucky to find a mass grave. ”
A mass grave is a place where tens of thousands of gods or demons are buried together, and because they died on the battlefield, they can't count the number of people and can't get back the corpses, so they will build such mass graves.
As expected, there were no bones in these graves, at most some of their clothing, or jewelry.
"But there's so much stuff here, the three of us can't take it all. ”
Seeing the countless burial objects in front of her, Murong Xue showed a look of pity.
These things, they are all handed down from the era of ancient gods and demons, and any one of them is priceless, but they only have three people, six pairs of hands, and it is difficult to take all these things away without storage items.
"There's no way, then I'll have to pick some good ones. ”
As he spoke, Chen Yang was ready to come forward and search one by one, picking up the high value.
Zhang Zhao slowly flew into the air, his eyes had turned sky blue, and said, "Don't bother so much, I'll take a look first." ”
As soon as the eyes of the spirit world were opened, Zhang Zhao could immediately see things that did not belong to this world.
He saw that all the graves were glowing with points of light of various colors, some of which were strong and some of which were dim, and needless to say, the brighter the light, the better.
Suddenly, Zhang Zhao noticed a familiar aura, in the penultimate pit of the first column on the left, the coffin in the middle faintly exuded a dark black aura. If you look closely, this aura is exactly the same as the aura of the sword blade that I bought at auction.
"Chen Yang, the first row on the left, the penultimate pit, the coffin in the middle. ”
Chen Yang nodded, jumped into the pit, and after opening the second coffin, there was a skeleton lying inside, the skeleton had turned black, but the armor on his body was shiny and still glowing with a rich aura.
At first, Chen Yang thought that what Zhang Zhao was talking about was this armor, but when he was about to pull off the armor and put it away, he suddenly saw that the right hand of this skeleton was still holding a sword hilt, and the aura and material emitted from this sword handle were exactly the same as the sword blade that Zhang Zhao had given him before.
Seeing this, Chen Yang also became curious.
This is obviously a mass grave, and it stands to reason that there should not be bones, so why is there a skeleton here? Didn't it be said before that the Akaya Continent was imitated with crystal nuclei and spiritual power? If this is the case, then how are the bones imitated? And looking at this skeleton, the skeleton is much larger than that of humans, and the finger bones are relatively thick, so it is obvious that they are the bones of the ancient gods and demons.
Chen Yang was more and more puzzled, he faintly felt that this Chigu Continent was not an imitation at all, it was the Chigu Continent of the original God and Demon Era.
"Alas......."
Chen Yang sighed, looking at this skeleton, judging from the armor on his body, he should also be a general-level figure.
"Offended seniors!"
Chen Yang stretched out his hand, broke open the right hand bone of the bone, and removed the hilt of the sword, the moment he just touched the bone, the entire bone turned into flying ash and disappeared without a trace, leaving only a sword hilt and a body of armor.
Seeing this, Chen Yang didn't understand very much, so he immediately took back the hilt of the sword and the armor, and in order to prevent accidents, he even wrapped some broken stones around the hilt.
Just as Chen Yang packed these items and just carried them on his back, Zhang Zhao yelled "be careful" in the air, and then heard a dull crashing sound.
Sensing that the situation was not right, Chen Yang quickly sacrificed his cloud-chasing sword to guard the surroundings.
However, he couldn't see anything, except for Zhang Zhao, who was hit by some force and fell to the wall of the pit, there was nothing else.
"Get out of here. ”
Zhang Zhao got up quickly, and the Straight Spine Ancient Knife was instantly in his hand, only to see him slash the blade violently, seemingly a void cut, but he didn't expect it to stay in mid-air, and let out a scream.
Seeing the true qi on Zhang Zhao's body, Chen Yang guessed that there must be some enemy that he couldn't see, Zhang Zhao had a spiritual eye and could see the creatures of the spiritual world, but he couldn't, so in this battle, he couldn't help at all.
