Chapter 388: A Strange Squirrel Pattern
"The Tomb of the Old Gods appeared at the same time as the Desireless Realm and me. Of course, the Hermit Emperor would not understand Kuang Shiyun's current mood, but he still told Kuang Shiyun honestly.
The words of the Hermit Emperor Venerable not only surprised Kuang Shiyun, but even the Emperor of Freedom and the Emperor of Wuji were taken aback. The two of them relied on their own strength and talent to achieve today's achievements, although they had been cultivating for a long time, no one expected that the hermit emperor standing next to him would be a figure who appeared at the same time as the Desireless Realm.
Such a character can simply be called old and immortal.
"You...... Do you mean that when the Desireless Realm appeared, the Tomb of the Ancient Gods had already appeared?" Kuang Shiyun looked at the Hermit Emperor in shock, unable to believe what he said.
"Yes, while I don't know why I appeared with the Desireless Realm, I know the history of any part of the Desireless Realm. The Hermit Emperor nodded without hesitation.
The matter of the Ancient War, except for the characters who were really preserved in the ancient times, even a cultivator like the Hermit Emperor Zun would not know about it.
After all, the impact of the Great War of the Ancients was far-reaching, and whoever knew the real situation would not say it casually.
"That ......" Kuang Shiyun still had a lot of questions in his heart, but the Hermit Emperor Zun prevented him from continuing to ask.
"Shiyun, to be honest, that's all I know, even if you ask again, there won't be any results, why don't you go to the second layer as soon as possible to take a look, and everything will fall into place?"
His years of cultivation can be said to be longer than anyone present, and he also knows that he has cultivated to the peak of Emperor Venerable, but there has been no way to break through all this time.
Seeing that Emperor Xiaoyao and Emperor Wuji, plus Kuang Shiyun and others were about to catch up with him, of course he hoped that he could find some ways in the tomb of the ancient gods to help him break through the realm at this stage.
"Hmm!" Kuang Shiyun pondered for a moment, and knew that the Hermit Emperor was telling the truth, so he didn't ask any more questions. Instead, together with the Hermit Emperor, he began to study the tadpole ancient inscriptions on the wall.
Soon, under the guidance of the hermit emperor who had been prepared for a long time, Kuang Shiyun learned the meaning of the tadpole ancient inscription on the wall, and knew how to open the passage and enter the second layer.
"I've mastered this method of getting to the second level. Are you also ready?" Kuang Shiyun and the Hermit Emperor stood up at the same time, glanced at the Xiaoyao Emperor and the Wuji Emperor who were in the middle of the meditation, and said lightly.
His voice, like a pebble thrown into a pool of clear water, suddenly caused ripples in the hearts of the two of them, and immediately woke up Emperor Xiaoyao and Emperor Wuji.
"We're all set. Emperor Xiaoyao and Emperor Wuji replied with excited expressions on their faces, as they stood up.
"Okay, let's go!" Kuang Shiyun finished speaking, and walked to the wall opposite the passage that came in.
Standing still in front of the wall, Kuang Shiyun's whole body suddenly emitted bursts of gray light, enveloping his whole body in it. If someone is in front of Kuang Shiyun, you will find that his mouth is constantly squirming, as if he is reciting a long, awkward incantation.
It's just that he reads quite quickly, and there is not a trace of error.
At the same time, Kuang Shiyun's hands also stretched out to his chest, and his palms and fingers kept changing, pinching out complex and clear seals. After absorbing the gray light emitted from Kuang Shiyun's body, Yin Jue quickly flew to the wall.
As the seals flew in, the walls completely absorbed the energy of those seals without hindrance, and soon a circular pattern appeared on the wall.
In this circular pattern, there are many patterns that even the Hermit Emperor can't tell what they mean, and each pattern is lifelike, as if it can move under the gray light, making people look very strange.
"Drink ......" Kuang Shiyun suddenly shouted violently, and at the same time, the light on his body soared, and his palm flew rapidly, and the speed of the seal and energy flying into the wall doubled again.
And that weird and complex pattern also began to emit a strong white light at this time, which completely corresponded to Kuang Shiyun.
The Hermit Emperor, the Carefree Emperor, and the Wuji Emperor who were watching from the side had excited expressions on their faces at the moment. How many years, how many years they have waited, finally to this day.
After a while, they will be able to step into the second layer that they have always dreamed of entering, and at that time they may be able to find a way to break through the Emperor Zun realm.
For people who have been trapped in one realm for many years, being able to break through the current realm is simply a great thing. What's more, they don't know that above their own realm, someone has already broken through.
"Boom ......"
When the light on Kuang Shiyun's body and the white light emitted by that strange and complex pattern rose to the strongest, the shape of a portal suddenly appeared in front of Kuang Shiyun. At the same time, the portal rose very slowly.
I don't know how many years it hasn't been opened, and there are constant roars during the slow opening.
"It's done!" The Hermit Emperor was full of joy in their hearts, and they glanced at each other, and everyone could see the excitement in each other's eyes.
Sure enough, when all the light faded, when the roar fell, what appeared in front of Kuang Shiyun was a straight passage. The shape of this passage is almost exactly the same as that portal, it is all boxy, only more than a meter wide and more than two meters high, and at most it can only accommodate two people at the same time.
Moreover, the end of the passage was full of darkness, and although the four people present were all emperor-level masters, none of them could see clearly what was at the end of the passage.
"This ...... Is this the passage to the second layer of space?" Kuang Shiyun looked at the passage in front of him, his heart full of doubts. Although the walls of the passage exuded a quaint atmosphere, and the pictures painted on the walls were very mysterious, this passage was completely different from the passages they had encountered before.
The passages I encountered before were all made of energy, and they could be closed and closed at will, but now this one is like a labyrinth in the mortal world.
"Let's go!" The Hermit Emperor didn't have any worries about Kuang Shiyun, and stepped into it first.
"Poof......
A sound of down-to-earth footsteps came, and the Hermit Emperor had already stepped on the passage.
The passage did not react in any way other than the sound.
"It's okay!" Emperor Xiaoyao and Emperor Wuji hurriedly stepped forward in the footsteps of the Hermit Emperor.
The second floor of the Tomb of the Old Gods, a place they had never dreamed of entering, of course, no one would let anyone.
"Is it my delusion?" Kuang Shiyun muttered in a low voice, seeing the Hermit Emperor Venerable and them drifting away, he also stepped in quickly and caught up with them.
Just as Kuang Shiyun also stepped into the passage, the thick stone gate made another rumbling sound and fell down very slowly.
With a deafening bang, the stone gate completely merged with the surrounding walls, as if it were completely non-existent.
In the long passage, the Hermit Emperor Zun took the lead, the Wuji Emperor Zun and the Xiaoyao Emperor Zun followed behind, and Kuang Shiyun walked last.
There was silence all around, except for the occasional sound of their footsteps.
It's just that the more this happens, the more careful they become.
Just now, the Hermit Emperor Venerable was too excited and was the first to rush in, and now he has already regretted it. But he can't let others go ahead for no reason, so he can only move forward.
But he had the worst in his heart, if there was really any danger, he would immediately move backwards, and at the same time push the two of them forward. With his strength, it was still very easy to find the two of them as substitutes for the dead ghosts.
And the Easy Emperor and the Wuji Emperor, who were standing behind the Hermit Emperor, were also cautiously guarding against possible dangers around them.
It's just that I don't know that I have long been unconsciously defined as a substitute ghost by the Hermit Emperor.
Kuang Shiyun slowly followed behind them, his eyes already attracted by the pattern on the wall.
On these patterns, there are not only people, but also beasts, and even divine beasts, but the words on each pattern are tadpole ancient scripts, so Kuang Shiyun can't understand the meaning at all.
"Huh, there is a gray squirrel pattern?" Kuang Shiyun suddenly sighed, startling the three emperors in front of him.
"What kind of gray squirrel pattern?" The Hermit Emperor Zun turned his head and glared at Kuang Shiyun fiercely, even if there was a gray squirrel pattern, he shouldn't be so surprised and startled them.
"Right here, look!" Kuang Shiyun didn't seem to feel the murderous gaze of the Hermit Emperor and the Easy Emperor, and still looked at a huge pattern in front of him without squinting, and there were indeed many different types and sizes of gray squirrels painted on the pattern.
"What's so strange about that. Emperor Xiaoyao glanced at him angrily.
"That's it!" The Hermit Emperor also ignored Kuang Shiyun and continued to walk forward. On the walls of this passage, there will be a painting at intervals, and each painting is different, and the hermit emperor has long been accustomed to it.
Kuang Shiyun saw that they didn't pay attention to them, and he didn't care, and still walked forward closely behind them.
Because they were worried that they didn't know where the danger would be, the speed of the four of them was not fast, and they didn't know how far they had walked for half a day. However, the end of the passage they saw, as well as the entrance to the passage, were completely dark, and they knew that they were still a long, long way from the exit.
Fortunately, the four of them are all emperors' cultivators, and they don't care about time. As long as there is an end, then they will definitely be able to get there, so no one shows impatience.
It's just that just as they were constantly groping their way forward in the darkness, there was a sudden "squeak" sound in front of them.
"Stop!" the Hermit Emperor Zun suddenly transmitted his divine sense to Kuang Shiyun and them in fear, and stopped at the same time. "Can you hear that?"
"Well, it seems to be the cry of a gray squirrel!" Kuang Shiyun replied immediately. Although the voice was relatively weak, Kuang Shiyun could still hear it clearly.
"That's right, I heard it too!" said Emperor Joy and Emperor Wuji at the same time.
"Strange, how can there be a gray squirrel in this passage?" asked Emperor Xiaoyao strangely.
