Chapter 20: The Ancient Cave
Yan Lingyun took advantage of the cover of the fungus forest to temporarily get rid of the tracking of Sha Qianli and others. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ info[η^ζ^δΉ¦εΊ][]. [774] [buy]. []
But he knew that the other party would not give up easily, and sooner or later he would catch up, so he kept for a moment, tried to choose some dry and hard ground, and ran all the way through the fungus forest.
He doesn't know the direction, he moves forward, and lets himself run as far as he goes.
I don't know how long this fungus forest is, Yan Lingyun estimated that he had been running for more than an hour, but he still couldn't see the end.
It's just that the cliffs on both sides are getting taller and taller, and steep and steep cliffs have begun to appear, and the bare rocks show the vicissitudes of time.
He began to run along the cliff, hoping for some twist, or if he kept walking so straight, when would he be able to get rid of the trail behind him.
Suddenly, as far as the eye could see, a high golden wall spanned the sides of the cliff, blocking his path.
Yan Lingyun stopped in shock, and looked at it in a daze for a long time, a little unable to come back to his senses.
The tall golden wall in front of it appeared out of nowhere, spanning a distance of several hundred meters, tightly filling the space between the two cliffs, leaving no gaps. That situation is like a tree jumping out of a crack in a stone, but this "crack in the stone" is two cliffs that are not sky-high!
If that golden wall is really a tree, then this tree is truly shocking!
In order to see more clearly, Yan Lingyun moved forward for a distance, and finally stopped under a bulging mountain bag.
Take a closer look, what kind of mountain bag is this, only to see a strip of python-like stems and tendrils intertwined from the bottom of the high wall, bulging into patches of sand, a cursory look, it really looks like a big mountain bag, and the golden high wall, standing in the middle of the mountain bag.
There is no doubt that the golden wall that spans both sides of the cliff and seems to jump out of the "crack in the stone" is really an unimaginably big ancient tree!
Immediately, Yan Lingyun's gaze was condensed again, and on the body of the ancient tree, there was no peeled old skin, but it was round and abnormal, faintly emitting a golden light, which looked sacred and bewitching.
"Isn't this an ancient tree, but a mushroom that is so big that it is against the sky!" Yan Lingyun couldn't contain his thoughts and thought of this possibility.
He raised his head and looked up along the golden body, but he couldn't see the top at a glance, only that the sky above was dark and gloomy, as if something covered the sky and monopolized the light. And as far as the eye can see, the golden body has no branches, and it is straight, like a giant pillar.
What a fungus!
Yan Lingyun made a shocking conclusion in his heart, but how could this fungus grow like this?
"If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!" He suddenly thought of what his great-ancestor Bai Qianshan had said, and in order to find out, he walked up the mountain bag and came to the golden torso.
Yan Lingyun suddenly felt his own insignificance, standing next to this anti-heaven fungus, he felt like an ant, looking up at a high mountain. He reached out and touched his golden torso, like leather, and tried to pierce it with the Ugin dagger, but there was not even a single scratch, and he was immediately shocked.
"Oops!"
Yan Lingyun's heart jumped suddenly, and he suddenly thought of the situation he was facing: there was this huge fungus in the way, and there were chasing soldiers in the back, and he actually fell into a Jedi!
I was surprised by the vision in front of me before, but now I came back to my senses and suddenly became anxious. He looked left and right, and the cliffs on both sides were unusually steep, and there was no place to borrow any strength, so he couldn't climb at all, and the fungi in front of him were unimaginably tough, and there was nothing feasible.
"Did you get under the rhizome of this fungus?" Yan Lingyun was forced to be anxious and thought of the only way. He walked around the mountain bag with the rhizomes raised, hoping to find a breach, but on the side of the cliff, he actually found a ready-made cave.
It's just that this cave is so small that he can barely squeeze into it, and I don't know what it did. He put his head out of the cave and sniffed it, and smelled a rotten odor, accompanied by a faint fragrance, which came with the moving air.
Yan Lingyun hesitated again, there was obviously a vent at the other end of the cave in front of him, it was not a dead hole, but he was not sure if the cave was safe and whether there would be anything harmful.
Just when he was hesitating, there was a faint sound of footsteps behind him, and he had been delayed for a while, so that Sha Qianli and the others chased after him.
Yan Lingyun's face changed, he gritted his teeth, no longer hesitated, took off the satchel on his waist, stuffed it into the hole first, and then took the Ugin dagger in his hand, stretched out his arms, and climbed into it with a bone.
Entering the cave, Yan Lingyun was pushing the satchel while meandering to follow up, the cave was dark, and he couldn't tell the specific situation, he just drilled forward with his heart and steel, just to identify the direction, and actually went to the stone cliff on one side.
The deeper you go into the cave, the stronger the smell of decay becomes, but the fragrance gradually becomes stronger, and I don't know what it is. Yan Lingyun suddenly found that a faint light began to appear in the cave, not like the light of the sky, but a bit like firelight, coming from the front.
He began to hesitate, he had heard that some large tombs were lit with green lanterns, could the cave in front of him lead to a tomb? The strange incident of Yuan Tiangang's bones has made his heart especially palpitating to this day.
But when he thought that Sha Qianli and the others were likely to come closer, he had to suppress the fear in his heart and continue to crawl forward.
Yan Lingyun suddenly felt a lightness in his hand, the satchel that turned out to be pushed by the front fell down suddenly, and at the same time, the light became a little stronger, and a large space seemed to appear in front of him.
He poked his head out and looked ahead, and found that it was a huge stone cave, very ancient, and the light of the fire came from the depths of the stone cave.
Yan Lingyun quickly broke his body out of the cave he crawled into, went down to the stone cave, took a look, and found that the stone cave was full of animal bones, the cause of death was the same, they were all entangled by something and the bones of the whole body were shattered and died, and the smell of decay was emitted by their rotten corpses.
This discovery suddenly made his scalp tingle, and there was really a strange danger in this stone cave. But when I thought that today was the eighth solar day, all the beasts in the Sunset Forest had fled, and I was a little relieved.
"And what is it that makes these dead animals burrow into this cave one after another?" Yan Lingyun immediately thought about this question again, and then he realized that it was probably due to the fragrant fragrance coming from the stone cave.
When I came to this stone cave, the fragrance became more and more intense, and when I took a breath, I felt that my whole body suddenly seemed to be full of vitality and had inexhaustible energy.
Yan Lingyun was suddenly amazed, he picked up the satchel on the ground, identified the source of the fragrant fragrance, and stepped on the bones all over the ground and walked towards the cave.
The stone cave was very large and very long, Yan Lingyun walked in it, and the sound of the cracking of bones under his feet reverberated in the cave from time to time. After walking for a distance, the bones under his feet gradually became scarce, and finally disappeared, but on the ground on both sides of the cave, two golden python-like rhizomes appeared, extending all the way to the cave.
Yan Lingyun found that these two huge rhizomes were extended by the large anti-heaven fungus outside the stone cave, but they were covered by pieces of bones at the entrance of the stone cave, and they did not appear until inside the cave.
He was immediately curious, the fungus outside the cave grew so against the sky, could it be because these two rhizomes that stretched into the cave had gained some kind of anti-heaven creation from the depths of the stone cave?
In order to confirm the thoughts in his heart, Yan Lingyun quickened his pace and walked down the two extended rhizomes to the cave.
The rhizomes extended inward step by step, shrinking step by step, gradually becoming as thin as a child's arm from the thickness of a person's waist, and when the light shone in front of him, the two rhizomes were as thin as fingers, and they poked into the two burning oil lamps.
