Text Chapter 97 Undercurrent
The next morning, the endless sea lit up with a touch of fish belly white.
Chu Xuan got up early to run the exercises and practice, and so did the rest of the cultivation. As a result, the open space of the entire Penglai Pavilion was full of monks facing the morning sun.
The tomb was found on an isolated island in the southwest, and the mouth of the tomb was blown open and exposed. After resting, the people got on the boat and rushed over. Since most of the people present have not yet reached the golden pill stage, they can only go by boat.
At the entrance of the cave, there were already several seniors in hand, checking the age of the monks who came to participate in Deepavali.
The seniors knew the age of the monk through the palm of the hand that touched everyone, which was generally not fake. Unless there is a strong body refining cultivator, but this possibility is very small, and a strong body refining cultivator will not use his reputation to fight with the younger juniors.
Chu Xuan stepped forward and stretched out his palm, the old man pinched his palm and said, "About twenty, the early stage of foundation building, not bad! I hope you can get good results, this time the reward has a very useful pill for foundation building." ”
"Thank you, old-timers. Chu Xuan thanked him.
Lu Yang and Yu Huohua also passed the inspection smoothly, but the two of them were in the Qi Refining Period, and they were not taken seriously because they were caught a lot of money during the Qi Refining Period.
Chu Xuan: "After entering the ancient tomb, acting together, although it is a trial, it is still dangerous." ”
Lu Yang and the others didn't hold it up, nodded and agreed with Chu Xuan's statement.
The monks walked through the long corridor to a clearing, where a bronze door closed tightly in the depths of the cavern. On both sides of the bronze door stand two stone carvings of rare and exotic beasts, the stone carvings are lifelike and very expressive.
With a deep voice, the bronze door was opened, and a cold air poured out, and many monks shivered. Chu Xuan's cultivation was considered to be upper-middle in the crowd, so he just felt a little cold.
"Hey, it's really a big tomb, and if you're lucky, you might be able to find some peerless artifact or something. Some monks said excitedly.
"Don't be delusional, this kind of tomb has already been explored by the predecessors, otherwise how could it be taken out for us to test. The monk's companion poured a head of cold water.
The young man of Penglai Pavilion listened to the conversation between the two and smiled: "This is not necessarily, some of the methods of the Ancient Tomb are incredible, maybe there is a hidden inheritance in it, it still depends on personal luck." ”
The young master of Penglai Pavilion said so, it seems that there is really something hidden here, and the monks are breathing quickly and rush into the ancient tomb, as if the treasures inside were robbed by others one step later.
Chu Xuan himself is also very interested in treasure hunting, and he also wants to see how lucky he is.
"Let's go, let's go in too. Chu Xuan said.
Then Chu Xuan and the others walked into the ancient tomb. Jiao Yang didn't go with them, because the monks of the Jindan stage would enter after all the low-level monks. This is for the sake of fairness, with their strength to enter the ancient tomb in advance, and there will be nothing else to do with the monks along the way.
Step into the bronze gate, the scale of the ancient tomb is terrifying, this is simply an underground city, all kinds of strange buildings, streets and alleys, you can vaguely see a magnificent palace as far as the eye can see.
The entire underground city seemed to be covered with fog, and the fog only filled the streets only a few meters high.
Chu Xuan and the others slowly walked in, and when they walked in, they deeply realized the enormity of the underground city. To put it bluntly, this is a labyrinth, and the monks who walked in before are completely out of sight.
Chu Xuan carried the Cloud Slashing Sword behind his back, vigilantly looking around.
"Xuanzi, you are holding this broken sword again, your master is really picking. Lu Yang said.
Chu Xuan just smiled and didn't speak, there are many people here, it's better to disguise the clouds for the sake of safety.
As he spoke, a darker mist slowly approached Lu Yang.
"Be careful!" Chu Xuan said, stabbing with a sword.
"Tsk!" the fog cleared, and a ghost screamed and died. Then the jade pendant worn by Chu Xuan showed the number one on it.
"The fog here is serious, it's very suitable for the hiding of ghosts, be careful!" Chu Xuan said.
Lu Yang was afraid when he thought about the scene just now, if he came by himself, he was afraid that he would die here in the next second, he put away his playful attitude and was vigilant around.
The further you go inside, the more ghosts you encounter, and the sounds of battle all around you are around.
Chu Xuan's small team has gained a lot along the way, and Wan'er can't attack spells for the time being. Lu Yang and the fat man's scores had already reached thirty points, and Chu Xuan was slightly higher by thirty-five points.
Time passed minute by minute, everything went smoothly and harmoniously, after meeting the monk, the two sides greeted each other kindly, and then left, getting along with each other in an extraordinary harmony. Although the ghosts here are good at hiding, their attack power is incredible. As long as you don't challenge ghosts with higher strength than yourself, you won't be in a little danger.
But the good times didn't last long, and a terrible scream broke the peace.
Chu Xuan rushed over as early as after hearing the screams, and when he arrived at the scene of the accident, there were already many people there.
Three monks were nailed to the wall, long since they showed no signs of life. The murder weapons were several slender bone-piercing nails, and the jade pendants on the three of them had long since disappeared. It is clear that this is man-made.
"Who did this?" someone asked.
"How can this be? the people of that sect are so frustrated, this is just a trial, a game, why bother to kill people!"
"The jade pendant is gone, can you plunder the opponent's points?"
Several darkly dressed people laughed and said, "This is the world of monks, the jungle eats the strong. Those old men have to live in harmony, the real cultivation realm is full of hypocrisy! Hehe, sure enough, this is the most real. ”
As soon as these words came out, they hit the muzzle of the gun, and everyone present looked at these people in unison.
"I know them, they are the disciples of the Dark Mountain, I remember that the Dark Mountain is good at this kind of cultivation method like secret weapons, these people were killed by you!, right!" said a monk, pointing to a few people.
The disciple of the dark mountain was identified as not nervous, but instead said with a smile: "I really wish we were the first to do it, but it's a pity that we were preempted." There are also this kind of bone nails everywhere, and people with a little strength can do this. You're so suspicious that you're in such a hurry to put the most blame on us!"
The monk was a little anxious when he was bitten back, and hurriedly said, "Fart! I'm from a decent family! It's not like you who only put hidden weapons behind your back!"
Hearing that someone insulted his sect, a chill spread on the faces of the people in the dark mountain: "You say it again?"
"Am I not right, if you kill someone, admit it!, your sect is all gutless!" the monk spoke again.
'Whoosh~'
Chu Xuan's face changed: "Not good!"
Unfortunately, it was too late, and the monk, who was still chattering just now, had a money dart pierced through his forehead, and he could no longer die.
"Damn it!" the disciple of the Dark Mountain said coldly.
"Brother!!" the fellow monk shouted as he looked at the dead brother, "You guys!"
It's a pity that the difference in strength between the two sides is too big, just a face, the disciple who claims to be famous and upright, all the souls have returned to Huangquan.
The people from the dark mountain said: "Although our division is not a big sect, it is not something that a cat or a dog can insult. Again, the previous ones weren't our hands, take a closer look! Their necks were twisted and pinned just for demonstration. Hehe, maybe the killer will stab you between our group at any time. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at the monks around them vigilantly.
"It's none of our business here, let's go first. A group of monks said a word, covered their jade pendants, and left.
The rest of the monks also left in a panic, looking at the people around them vigilantly.
Lu Yang said worriedly, "Chu Xuan, what should I do?"
Chu Xuan looked at the people who were wary of each other and said, "The atmosphere here has changed, and it will be even more dangerous in the future." Be careful. ”
Chu Xuan looked at a few people in the dark mountain and said, "There is no need to create panic on the cusp of this kind of situation, isn't it the most important thing to work together to find the murderer?"
The person from the Dark Mountain said, "This is the essence of the cultivation world, I just told the truth. What's the matter?Daoist friends are very dissatisfied with my cooking?" said this person, holding out a money dart in his right hand, flicking his fingers, turning into a streamer and flying towards Chu Xuan.
Chu Xuan raised his hand and split the flying money dart in half with a wind blade.
The pupils of the people in the dark mountain shrank and clenched their fists and said, "It turned out to be a master, I can't help it in the next eye, say goodbye!" After speaking, he hurriedly dodged and left.
"Why don't you chase it?" Mr. Yu said.
Chu Xuan: "It's too dangerous, the real murderer is still in the shadows." We have to be careful. ”
At this time, the pot also exploded outside the tomb. After all the monks entered the tomb, a large array came out of nowhere and sealed the entire tomb. Those outside the tomb can't get in, and those inside can't get out.
