Chapter 4: My Name is Changtian
"Hello, where is this?" she asked cautiously. It's so inhumane to let such a handsome guy go to water prison!
The man looked her up and down with his wine-colored eyes, and Ning Xiaoxian couldn't help but clench his arms, because there was always a feeling of being scanned by X-rays. Having said that, this is the world of Xianxia, shouldn't this guy's eyes have a perspective function, can he see others without clothes?
"Mortal?" That's right!
He must have seen something, his thin lips opened slightly, looking a little surprised, "How can a mortal get in?"
"Wait. He even frowned, obviously seeing something incredible, and the next sentence was shocking, "You don't even have a spiritual root." ”
"Wow, you can actually see it at a glance? The elder of the Chixiao Sect has been tinkering with it for a long time before detecting it!"
"Chixiao Sect, what is that?" he asked coldly. It is said that the iceberg man is more dragged, and the one in front of him is the best example.
"That's a sect!Who are you?Why are you being held here?How long have you been locked up?What is the origin of this prison-like place?Why are there only bones left in the cells I saw?" She asked, pouring beans into a bamboo tube. In fact, she still wanted to ask "why are you still alive", but finally held back.
There was something strange about the empty building, and she needed to talk to someone to banish the feeling of fear, and so far, he was the only one alive here.
He stared at her and hooked his finger at her: "Come closer, and this gentleman will sue you." The handsome man's fingers were slender, bent and rhythmic, causing her to take several steps forward in a daze. Fortunately, she suddenly came back to her senses and stopped.
There was a deep red line on the black stone floor in front of her toes, and the color was so bright that it was hard to pay attention to. If the builder of this mysterious prison had specifically used this method to warn future generations of the danger of approaching, then there was no reason for her not to comply.
It's a pity, it's only a small step away! The man also looked at the red line, his pupils shrunk, and he sighed secretly in his heart.
"This is a god and demon prison built by the gods, which is dedicated to imprisoning all kinds of gods and monsters and demons. He spoke, and comforted her for the first time, "You don't have to be afraid, since you can enter the Gods and Demons Prison, you are the master here, and this monarch is not a threat to you." ”
Hmph, it's strange that she will believe the latter sentence. A gloomy dungeon, a strange man, although he is handsome and cool, but the origin is unknown, the intention is unknown, and she is not one of those brainless little girls on the earth chasing stars, how could she be fooled?
Although he vaguely knew that eighty percent of this big prison could be used by herself, it was still very satisfying to Miss Ning to get confirmation from him. But why are all the prisoners dead and turned into bones?
There was a slight sigh in his words: "The Divine Demon Prison has been closed for too long, and many prisoners are slowly dying. The bones you see are still left by the powerful gods and demons before their deaths, and those who are weaker have long since turned into ashes, and there is no longer even a trace of them. No wonder she found many of her cells empty along the way.
"They're all old and dead?"
He showed a look of sarcasm: "Old age and death? The lifespan of gods and demons cannot be said to be infinite, but it is common to live for thirty or fifty thousand years. However, this prison will automatically extract the life force of the prisoners to maintain its operation, and when the prison door is opened, there will be an influx of spiritual energy to replenish it slightly, but once the prison door is closed, they can only be continuously extracted, and finally they will be consumed to death!"
Sitting here and watching the life force being drained, and he couldn't do anything? Ning Xiaoxian shuddered, the builder of this prison has a really vicious mind! To let the real gods and demons run out of life, this place must be closed for a long time.
She muttered, "How long has the Divine Demon Prison been closed?"
He pointed to a large, delicate inscription* in the corner: "Judging from its operation, it must be about 30,000 years old." ”
Nani, she heard you right, did she? 30,000 years?!
In the earth world, the saber-toothed tiger has been extinct less than 15,000 years ago, and human beings have mastered artificial fire technology about 18,000 years ago, and the entire human civilization has developed by leaps and bounds, which is only a few thousand years. And he, has spent a long and distant 30,000 years here? Since she walked into this prison, she felt that every minute and every second had passed so depressingly and slowly, and he could actually sit in this dark little space for 30,000 years, what kind of demon was this?
But he seemed to be a proud man, and probably wouldn't lie about such a thing, and most importantly, her intuition somehow believed it.
He ignored her petrified state and said to himself, "My king's name is Changtian, you can check the list there." It had all the prisoners' numbers and information. ”
She took a deep breath and walked in the direction his finger pointed. Sure enough, there was a small white jade platform, on which was placed a non-silk booklet, shining with a faint silver light, and it seemed to be a treasure, and the words written on it were as old as those on the ring, but she could still read them.
Turn the first page, and the first name on the book is Changtian!
==================
The missing engraved hands moved regularly, and Changtian also sat quietly in the spring water, without saying a word, and the whole space was quiet.
I don't know how long it took for her to close the list in her hand and let out a long breath.
Even for someone who often boasted that her nerves were as strong as a tightrope, these horrific accounts dazzled her and made her feel overwhelmed.
No human being can survive such a long period of time, and Changtian is indeed not human. When he was imprisoned, his real body was a divine beast - a snake.
She remembers reading the "Classic of Mountains and Seas, The Classic of the Sea" and wrote: "There is the country of Pakistan in the southwest, and there is the country of Zhujuan, there are black snakes, green heads, and elephants. "But in this world, the power of the snake is far more than that.
In fact, this Divine Demon Prison was originally established to seal him. The chain worn on Changtian's body is called "Dragon Binding Rope", which can restrain his magical powers, which was originally used to imprison the dragon, and the spring water under his feet also has a great origin, called "Demon Spring", which can continuously absorb the demon's divine power and integrate it into the spring. The more powerful the demon's supernatural powers, the more damage the Demon Fountain will do to it. Although the Ba Snake has been among the sacred beasts, its essence is still a big monster, even if the damage of the Demon Spring to Changtian is weak, like a drop of water through a stone. But 30,000 years have passed, and the stone can be carved out of a hole by the flow of water, so how much damage did the demon spring cause to him?
