Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Hall of Life

Furukawa and Huo Yue'er walked slowly in the direction pointed by the golden thread, and they didn't have to worry about the pursuers behind them, even if they carried the panther back, it would take a lot of time to come over immediately.

Along the way, Furukawa and Huo Yue'er felt like they were spending time in clusters of jungles, and they also encountered all kinds of strange plants, and their clothes were scratched in many places. Actually, Furukawa is okay, after all, he is a boy, and it doesn't matter if his upper body is naked, and after experiencing large and small battles, Furukawa's clothes are no longer clothes, or they are simply wrapped in tattered strips of cloth, if it weren't for Furukawa's deliberate protection of his lower body when he fought before, he might have been naked a long time ago.

Huo Yue'er is different, when Furukawa was sent to purgatory by Taiyue before, she took the time to change into a purple dress, although she did not lose the gorgeous coat when she went out before, but it also added a bit of fairy energy. Now in this dense jungle, many thorny plants have also left traces on Huo Yue'er's clothes, and through the torn clothes, Huo Yue'er's tearable skin is also looming, adding a little spring to this piece of heaven and earth.

Furukawa didn't care about this, but kept walking forward, occasionally looking back at the direction of the golden thread to discern the direction.

I don't know how long it took, but this boring and difficult journey finally came to an end, and a stone staircase appeared at the feet of Furukawa and the others.

The staircase is not made of ordinary stones, but is carved from precious brass stone, and each stone staircase is carved with quaint patterns, like a mysterious text and like an ancient painting, faintly revealing a solemn atmosphere, making people feel that this stone staircase seems to lead to the Holy Seat, and people can't help but feel awe. What's even more amazing is that the height and width of each stone staircase are strikingly similar, and it can even be said that they are exactly the same.

The gold thread is now pointing to the top of the stone staircase.

"There's quirkiness here, be careful. Furukawa told Huo Yue'er a word, and walked up the stone stairs.

At first, it felt quite normal, but after a long time, Furukawa suddenly felt a great pressure, this pressure was extremely strange, not like it was pressed on the body, but more like it was pressed on the soul, trying to force himself to surrender.

Of course, it was impossible for Gu Chuan to let this kind of thing happen, and he resisted the pressure and went up, but there was something strange from Huo Yue'er's side.

Huo Yue'er's body was soft at this time, and her originally cherry-red lips turned a little purple, and she even had the urge to kneel directly, but Huo Yue'er reacted quite quickly, and suddenly grabbed Gu Chuan, so she didn't kneel, obviously also affected by the coercion.

Furukawa signed a contract with Purgatory, and it was at the cost of cutting off his emotions, which undoubtedly tempered his heart and strengthened his soul, so although he felt uncomfortable, he could still persevere, but Huo Yue'er was pampered since he was a child, so he naturally couldn't stand such coercion.

"Can you still go?" Furukawa asked.

"Hmm. Huo Yue'er looked panicked at this time, but still nodded stubbornly.

"Alright, you go down slowly now and wait for me at the bottom of the stone stairs. ”

When Huo Yue'er heard this, she wanted to refuse, but when she thought of her situation at this time, she had to nod her head and turn around.

"You wait a minute," Furukawa said as he took out the Burning Sky Armor from the Sky Ant, the previous Annihilation Armor had been damaged and could no longer be used, only this Burning Sky Armor could still be used normally, "Put this on, and call me loudly when you are in danger, I don't know if I will hear it when I go up, but I will come as soon as I hear it." ”

Huo Yue'er took the armor and wanted to say thank you, but her lips, which had been trembling, were still speechless, so she gave up this plan and cast an emotional look at Furukawa.

Furukawa did this not because he cared about her, but because her spirit pattern was sealed, her combat power was basically zero, and she couldn't hide from danger at all.

After Huo Yue'er left, Furukawa climbed up step by step, and after a while, it turned into a small black dot and disappeared in front of Huo Yue'er's eyes.

。。。

Furukawa was already sweating profusely at this time, so he simply tore off all the strips of cloth that had no blocking effect and left his upper body naked. He didn't know how many stairs he had taken, but it was clear that he was still far from the end, and there were still endless stone stairs in front of him.

Holding back his trembling body, Furukawa climbed up again. Although I felt that I had walked a lot of stairs, the height had never changed, and the most obvious feeling was that the pressure was the same as the feeling below, and if it weren't for the stone stairs being raised by one step, Furukawa would have wondered if he was on a flat road.

Another long time passed, and the scenery in front of me also changed, although it was still a stone staircase, but there were two large clouds in front of it, like a gate somewhere.

At this time, Furukawa felt a very strange feeling, it was all fed back to him by the way of heaven, if I had to describe it, it was a mixed blessing, there was a good sign, and a sense of crisis lingered in his heart. To tell the truth, just because this was the first time since cultivating the way of heavenly opportunity, Furukawa felt that something good was coming, and Furukawa felt that he should go in, but Furukawa still thought about it calmly and kept making trade-offs in his heart.

This is really the fulfillment of the old saying: Blessings and misfortunes lurk, and misfortunes and blessings rely on.

After some struggle, Furukawa felt that he should still go and investigate, and it was not his style to cringe. Furukawa felt that his style was becoming more and more similar to Taigaku's.

Furukawa had an idea, so he walked straight forward, strange to say, once Furukawa made up his mind, the coercion that shrouded his soul disappeared, and he walked a lot more briskly.

The cloud gate seemed to feel Furukawa's arrival, and it opened automatically, Furukawa was surprised and walked in.

Before, Furukawa was worried that after Huo Yue'er left, without the guidance of the golden thread, he would not be able to find it.

Now that I see it, it seems that it is not needed.

What I saw in front of me was a vast hall, the green light filled the space, the hall was very gorgeously decorated, all kinds of slowly inlaid gems on the walls, and the pillars reflected dazzling light.

But the most eye-catching thing is the bronze tripod suspended high in the center of the hall, which is engraved with mysterious and ancient patterns similar to those on stone stairs, and exudes a faint green glow between the lines.

There are eight iron chains fixed around the bronze tripod, and the other end of the iron chain is fixed on the pillar of the hall, and the way these eight iron chains are fixed is very special, not the usual way of winding, but directly inserted into it, or it seems that these things are made into a whole when they are made, without the slightest gap.

The bronze tripod exudes a green light, and it is this light that reflects the entire hall in green, making it look vibrant.

I don't know if it's because the light is green or some other psychological effect, Furukawa really felt the vitality that permeated the entire space, as if countless people had gathered their lives together.

Life force is an abstract statement, life is also an ethereal thing, it is generally difficult to define what is called life, let alone forcibly explain that death is a complete loss of vitality, but now Furukawa has seen with his own eyes such a huge vitality that is almost condensed into substance.

Furukawa took a deep breath, countless life forces entered his body, and he felt as if he had been reborn, and he suddenly felt refreshed, and there were faint signs of a breakthrough.

Furukawa is more greedy to absorb the life aura here, while constantly looking at the environment here, although it is full of life, it always gives people a strange feeling.

Furukawa thought about it for a long time, and finally understood how this strange feeling came about.

Looking at the decoration here, feeling the atmosphere of the entire hall, as well as the strange bronze tripod and the mysterious patterns that can be seen everywhere, Furukawa faintly had a guess in his heart.

"It's like... Sacrifice?!" Furukawa suddenly woke up.

The object of the sacrifice cannot be the bronze tripod, then it must be the thing in the bronze tripod, and the tribute of the sacrifice turned out to be... Life.

Furukawa felt uneasy in his heart, this was not a warning from heaven, but a judgment made by Furukawa out of instinct. What is it that would have to arrange such a big battle and sacrifice with life?

Furukawa felt shocked and disgusted, since ancient times, everything that needs to extract life is all kinds of evil things, and only this kind of evil thing can have such a need for immorality.

Furukawa planned to find out, running into a beast duel, and the figure of the moon-stepping cat appeared behind him, and Furukawa felt that his speed and climbing ability had been greatly improved.

With a hard kick of his legs, Furukawa left the spot, holding the chain in his hand and climbing up, nimble like an ape.

Hanging on the bronze tripod, Furukawa propped himself up with both hands, and he could just see the things in the bronze tripod.

It was a seal-like thing, and the pattern on it was exactly the same as what Furukawa had seen before, and it was quietly placed there, and a huge amount of life force poured into it, and once it entered it, it sank into the sea and disappeared.

At the same time, Furukawa also felt a hint of familiarity, it was the power that sealed his spirit pattern, this is the life soul seal!

Furukawa instantly figured out that cannibals could only directly devour the flesh and essence of human beings, not human souls.

When he fought with the cannibals before, Furukawa had been on guard against their Soul Devouring Method, but he didn't see them use it for a long time, thinking that there was some hidden danger, and it turned out that devouring other people's souls was entirely the credit of this Soul Seal. And this life soul seal is not the natal spirit treasure of the cannibal master, Furukawa wondered before, the cannibals seem to be spirit beasts, it is impossible to sign a contract, let alone obtain the natal spirit treasure, why do you still say that the life soul seal is the natal spirit treasure of the cannibal master?

Now it seems that the cannibal master should have made a disguised trade with this life soul seal, and the cannibal clan used its power to seal other spirit beasts to enslave others and claim the king's hegemony, and as a transaction, the cannibal clan wanted to provide a steady stream of life force to the life soul seal.

This life soul seal seems to have a big appetite, no matter how much life force is in, it is swallowed in one bite, and there is no end.

"Destroy it, and you should be able to break the seal. Furukawa thought to himself.

Furukawa didn't know if any special method was needed to destroy it, and now that time was urgent, he had to forcibly destroy it.

Furukawa transformed the beast into the form of a demon cow and smashed it down with a punch at the Soul Seal. To Furukawa's surprise, there was a crack on the soul seal, but it was instantly repaired by the vigorous vitality.

"It seems that a forcible attack can do damage to it, but it will soon be repaired by a steady stream of life force. You have to cut off the input of life force. Furukawa immediately began to look for the source of his vitality.

At this time, a coquettish voice suddenly sounded: "Bold! Who dares to break into the forbidden land of our clan!"
