The heavy stone gate did not move at all, no matter how hard Lu Tao tried, there was no way to push or lift the stone door in the slightest.

The peony willow and the little peach did not move, especially the peony, staring at the stone gate with a melancholy face, as if they wanted to see a flower from above.

In the end, Lu Tao shook his head and gave up the idea of opening the stone door, no matter what, now it seems that it is impossible to open this stone door by himself.

"Since we can't open it, then we can only move on. Liu Ruyan turned around and took the lead in walking forward: "And some people should be relieved now, right?"

"You!" Peony's brows furrowed, and then he snorted, also keeping up with Liu Ruyan's pace, as if he didn't want to be left behind at all.

Of course, Lu Tao had no other idea than shaking his head, he walked at the end, holding a dog in his hand.

The dog didn't know if it was scared silly or what, since Lu Tao entered this tunnel, it didn't make any sound, of course, alive is still alive.

As they continued to move forward, it didn't take long for Peony and Liu Ruyan, plus Xiao Tao, to slow down their pace, and when Lu Tao caught up, Peony reminded in a low voice: "There seems to be something in front...... Sounds weird......"

Lu Tao listened attentively, and sure enough, a voice came from the location of the passage in front of him, but the passage just turned a corner, and he couldn't see what was happening on the other side from here.

Something like a murmuring sound came from after that, listen carefully, Lu Tao found that Lu Tao couldn't understand a word of the words in the murmur, in addition to the murmuring, there was a low moan, even Lu Tao could hear that the moaning person was in pain, this is what Peony said.

frowned, but Lu Tao had nothing to do, the back road was firmly blocked, even if Lu Tao wanted to go back, he couldn't do it, so he could only continue to move forward.

Such a thought flashed away, and Lu Tao made a decision the next moment, and said: "I'm in front, you guys be careful in the back, it's not that we don't have the strength to fight back!"

Saying that, Lu Tao felt his body for a while, and found that the spiritual power was still immobilized as if it was imprisoned, and then I was afraid that it would be unreliable to use spells or something, Lu Tao didn't think that he could rely on his body to resist any crisis encountered.

turned a corner, there was another roar behind him, and another stone door fell, this time Lu Tao could only bite the bullet even if he didn't want to.

In front of it is a door with a hole open, and the firelight inside leaks out along the door, illuminating Lu Tao's feet, from this position, you can only see a corner behind the gate, which is a sculpture, the huge sculpture is almost two meters, and out of the back is a pair of equally huge wings.

Angel?

The thought of this in Lu Tao's heart flashed away, and now he didn't care why there was a sculpture similar to an angel here, and after a pause, Lu Tao's feet didn't stop, and he walked behind the open door of the cave.

This is a hall that is slightly smaller than the hall of the other party's Jinshan, and in the center, there is an altar, and around the altar, a huge brazier is placed there, and the flames inside can be felt from afar to feel the heat and brightness in it.

On the altar, there was a person who was fixed there, his hands and feet were firmly tied by iron bayonets, and in the position with his back to Lu Tao and the others, there was a man in black wearing a hood standing there, and the murmur he had just heard came from this person.

As if hearing a voice behind him, the hooded man stopped muttering and turned around.

Lu Tao was stunned: "Why are you?!"

"Hehehe......" The hooded man in black laughed: "Of course it's me, I've been waiting for you for a long time, and for a while I even thought it was ...... I entrusted myself to the wrong person. ”

"Who are you?!" At this time, Peony collapsed in one step: "Let go of my father!"

Father?Lu Tao followed Peony's gaze and found that the person tied to the altar was none other than the Emperor of the Great Qin Empire who had escaped from the Star Picking Pavilion before.

His bright yellow robe had disappeared, and he was stripped to only a white underwear, which was really difficult to see clearly in the flickering firelight.

The man in black took a step to the left and blocked in front of Peony: "I advise you not to act rashly, if you want your father to die......"

Lu Tao frowned and stared at the man in black: "Fang Tianhua, you don't want to explain?!Why are you here?"

That's right, the man in black is Fang Tianqi that Lu Tao hasn't seen for a long time, he is even older than when Lu Tao first saw him, under the light of those flickering fires, white hair leaked out from between the hoods, the wrinkles on his face were like knife cuts, and his eyes became cloudy.

"Look, you did fulfill my entrustment, although it took a little longer, how about it?It took a lot of time to find those crowns, right?" Fang Tianhua didn't seem to be in a hurry to say something, just Lu Tao talked about something and didn't, just like the last time Lu Tao met him, almost nothing changed.

Fang Tianyan was not in a hurry, but someone was in a hurry, Liu Ruyan took advantage of the fact that everyone's attention was not on her, and rushed towards the emperor on the altar with an arrow, not to mention the peony, Xiao Tao didn't notice it for a while, let alone stop it.

Fang Tianhua, who was dressed in black, did not stop him this time, but watched Liu Ruyan's movements, smiling and saying nothing.

Lu Tao was taken aback, and then realized that everything Fang Tianli had done before was delaying time, and now that he was not delaying, it meant that things could not be changed, so there was no need to delay.

"Liu Ruyan! Come back quickly!" Lu Tao shouted, but Liu Ruyan didn't seem to hear it at all.

Passing through the area blocked by the brazier, Liu Ruyan's figure stagnated in an instant, and after only two steps, she lay on the ground, unable to get up.

Lu Tao took a step forward and looked at Fang Tianhua: "What do you want?!"

"Hehe, what do you want to do? Isn't this your little friend who has to step in? I'm worried that one person's weight may not be enough, but now it's okay, there are two people, and both of them are royalty, one Daqin and one Dayue, whether it is weight or balance, it is just right. ”

Lu Tao was silent for a moment, waved his hand to let Peony calm down for a while, and continued to look at Fang Tianqi: "This altar ...... You wanted to bring me here?"

"Hmm...... You finally understood what I meant, and I am not afraid to tell you, the crown or anything is fake, and I just want to use you as a sacrifice to bring you here, and the weight of ordinary people is not enough, and only monks can become real sacrifices...... But for now, with two members of the royal family as sacrifices, I can barely open that door, and I don't need you. ”

After a pause, Fang Tianli continued: "How about it? I'm still good to you, right? Anyway, I can be regarded as half of your teacher, when I dominate this world, you are the apprentice of the gods in this world, and I will give you great benefits." ”

Lu Tao took another step forward: "...... So, you don't know how to get out of this world, do you?"

"What's the good of leaving this world? Whether I return to the original world or not, as you can see, my life span is not enough, the only thing that can keep me alive is to become the god of this world, it just so happens that the god of this world has long left, and it should be no problem for me to take the authority of this world into my pocket, right?"

Saying that, without waiting for Lu Tao to start, Fang Tianhua took another step back, and just retreated into the range of the altar surrounded by the brazier.

Lu Tao stretched out his hand, feeling that there seemed to be a thousand forces acting on his arm, Lu Tao took a step back, feeling that his arm seemed to be hit hard, and his skin turned red visibly.

Fang Tianhua retreated into the range of the altar, his body trembled violently, and then he gasped for a while before continuing to speak: "Hahaha, it's too late to get back a game now...... But my promise is inconvenient, and I will let you live well. ”

Lu Tao endured the pain in his arm, picked up a piece of gravel from the ground and threw it casually, and as soon as he entered the range of the altar, the gravel seemed to be half of a huge force, and he wanted to smash it on the ground, smashing the ground out of a pit.

Fang Tianhua watched Lu Tao's movements and cautiously took half a step back: "Don't waste your efforts, this is my altar, only I can enter it, and if others want to come in, they will be crushed to the ground like her." ”

"Miss! Miss!!"

Lu Tao glanced at the emperor on the altar and Liu Ruyan lying on the ground, and found that both of them were pale, and compared to Liu Ruyan, the emperor of the Great Qin Empire on the altar was not able to moan before, except for his pale face, only a chest with a bow remained, which could prove that he was still alive.

Stopping Xiao Tao, who wanted to step forward, Lu Tao whispered to Peony: "Don't act rashly, now we have no possibility of rescuing your father at all." ”

Peony's face was gloomy and terrifying, and a pair of eyes were firmly fixed on Fang Tianqi, and nodded.

Seeing that no one impulsively wanted to rush into the range of the altar, Fang Tianhua nodded with satisfaction, and then turned around and walked towards the center of the altar, with his movements, the fiercely burning braziers around him seemed to be inspired by some kind of inspiration, the orange flames turned blue-green in an instant, and for a while, the entire area around the altar became weird, and those flames seemed to want to float and turn into veritable ghost fires.

Looking at the changes in front of him, not only Lu Tao was a little puzzled, but Peony and Xiao Tao were also shocked, and the three of them stared at the flames that turned into green, not knowing what to do next.

Fang Tianhua walked to the center of the altar and glanced back at Lu Tao and the others.
