It was a sunny day, but as soon as I walked into the barren valley, I saw that the ring-shaped sky surrounded by huge mountains above my head was full of dark clouds, black and oppressive, thick and low, which made people feel depressed. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Lu Chen's gaze swept over this gloomy gray barren valley, and there was no grass growing anywhere in sight, either hard and towering cliff rocks, or weathered and cracked earth. Gusts of wind kept blowing from the depths of the barren valley, raising puffs of gray dust.

Farther away, as the wind blew through the cracks in the weathered rocks, it sounded like the spirits of the undead who had died here long ago, still howling viciously.

The little black dog Ah Tu followed Lu Chen's footsteps into this desolate valley, although as a demon beast, it instinctively didn't like this lifeless place, but the desire to be with Lu Chen still overcame this feeling. It's just that when it walked into the barren valley, especially after Lu Chen walked another distance of about a few feet into the depths of this valley, Ah Tu suddenly stopped.

It hummed in a low voice, its face seemed to be in pain, and its whole body trembled slightly, as if it felt very uncomfortable. However, after Ah Tu glanced at Lu Chen in front of him, he hesitated for a moment and continued to insist on walking forward.

But something worse happened soon, but after only a few steps away, Ah Tu was unstable on his feet, his body swayed, and he took two steps and crookedly, and it didn't take long for him to pop and fall directly to the ground, all four legs twitching.

A shadow suddenly obscured its vision, and Ah Tu raised his eyes with a low cry, but it was Lu Chen who returned to its side. After reaching out and gently touching Ah Tu's head, Lu Chen picked it up and walked back, until he walked to the entrance of the barren valley, then put Ah Tu on the ground and said in a low voice: "Just wait for me here." ”

Ah Tu gasped for a while, and the abnormality of his body gradually subsided. It stood up again, glanced at Lu Chen, and then stretched out its tongue and licked Lu Chen's palm.

Lu Chen smiled, then turned around and walked away, and soon disappeared into the depths of the gloomy valley, only a gust of gloomy wind swept through the dust, covering the world.

At the entrance to the valley, only Atu was left with a dog.

It lay on its ground for a moment, not knowing whether it was a little bored or something was wrong, and stood up and looked around.

It was desolate and there was no movement. Ah Tu hesitated for a moment, and then tried to take a step forward, but after only a few steps, Ah Tu immediately felt the strange feeling from before, and hurriedly retreated.

Then, it tried to take a few steps along the edge of the valley, and soon found that such a move did not trigger the anomaly.

Ah Tu shook his body, stretched his waist, and waited in place for a long time, but for some reason, Lu Chen still did not come back. Ah Tu waited boredly, and after a while, finally stood up and walked slowly along the rock wall of the valley.

The stone walls are hard and rough, and I don't know how many years of wind and rain have eroded here, and the shapes are strange in the past, and in many places they are even as sharp as knife blades. Atu avoided the dangerous stones and walked slowly forward with some curiosity.

As it walked, when it just circled a thick stone ridge full of gaps, a sudden gust of fierce wind blew through here, and in an instant all the stone cracks were filled with strong winds, and almost at the same time, more than a dozen terrible screams suddenly sounded behind Ah Tu.

"Roar...... Yes...... Belch...... ......"

At that moment, it was like a thousand ghosts howling, the scene could be described as terrifying and abnormal, Ah Tu was startled, the hair on his body stood up instantly, and he howled in horror, almost subconsciously throwing his legs forward and running away.

It was a desperate run, and he didn't know how far he had run along the rocky walls of the valley, until he could no longer hold it anymore, and the terrible screams behind it were no longer audible, and then he stopped panting, and looked back, looking frightened.

It stood for a moment, still gasping for breath, and looked nervous, its eyes looking in the direction from which the strange scream had just come from, as if it was a little afraid that some terrible monster would suddenly emerge from that dark corner. At the same time, it subconsciously retreated slowly, feeling that the farther away from the place the better.

Just retreating, Ah Tu suddenly felt his body slammed, and it felt like his ass had hit a thick wall. It froze, then turned its head to look.

At the same time, a gloomy wind with dust in the sky blew again, obscuring the sky and the sun.

Behind the wind and sand, right in front of Ah Tu's eyes, a huge figure like a hill suddenly appeared, because of the cover of the dust, the appearance of this behemoth could not be seen, but Ah Tu's figure seemed to be extraordinarily small under the black shadow.

Ah Tu's eyes widened, staring blankly at the huge figure. And in the wind and sand, the behemoth seemed to sense something, and slowly turned around.

The black shadow came overwhelmingly, covering the little dog in the shadows, and a huge head fell from the sky, and before he could see it clearly, Ah Tu first saw a pair of huge eyes like copper bells, as if flashing with terrifying light and shadow, slowly falling in the wind and sand, staring at it.

Ah Tu screamed, his hands and feet were weak, and with a pop, he collapsed directly to the ground.

Lu Chen walked in the wind and sand, moving forward silently. There was an eerie and desolate aura in the barren valley, and that invisible but unusually chaotic feeling, but strangely, he seemed completely unaffected by it.

As he gradually descended into the middle of the barren valley, the terrain in the valley became more and more chaotic, and the ground was full of large and small cracks, crisscrossing and terrifying, as if there had been a terrible catastrophe here a long time ago, and the powerful force raged here, leaving a trace of eternal pain in this valley.

And the color of the ground under his feet gradually changed, from the initial lifeless lead gray color, began to turn into a series of scorched black and dark red traces, and the deeper into the valley, the two colors became darker and thicker, and it actually gave people a strange illusion, as if this barren valley was also alive, but at some point it was stabbed fiercely, and endless blood flowed, and after drying up, it became such an ugly and terrible appearance.

All these terrible "blood stains" are radiating outward, and the root of everything lies in the circular clearing in the center of the valley.

Lu Chen slowly walked here.

The wind and sand blew past him, swept up the hem of his clothes, and floated slightly.

In his line of sight, as the wind and sand slowly fell, a figure appeared in the ring.

The man was not standing, but sitting, but even if he was just sitting, he looked as tall as a normal person standing.

He sat in the annular clearing, which seemed to be the source of all pain, all the horror, all the rage and misery, and the source of all power, with his back to the landing, looking at this side of the world.

After a while, the wind and sand rose again, and his figure became a little blurred again, and in the wind, there was also a voice, gentle and gentle, which sounded very similar to Lu Chen's usual speaking tone.

"You're here......"
