Chapter Twenty-Four: Epic Demon Beast Lifts the Wind
Yokozo hurriedly took out the map and pointed the moon pattern on the ancient parchment at the circle. The coordination was seamless, the rotating circle came to a standstill, the sun set, the moon was nowhere to be seen, and the night covered the land.
At this time, everyone pushed the gate together, and part of the rock wall loosened, and a narrow gap appeared, which gradually expanded. A gate of one meter and nine highs and one meter wide opened slowly and silently inward, and the darkness flowed out from the black hole on the mountain wall like steam, and in front of them was a pitch-black cave that could not reach out to the five fingers, leading to the depths of the tomb of the black and white double emperor star.
The adventure team stood in front of the dark hole and hesitated for a long time, and finally, Yokozo spoke:
"Now, we have to admit that Mr. Wu Guang, the world's greatest novelist, is our trusted partner on this long journey. Although he could not open the veins and always slowed us down, he possessed extraordinary courage and wisdom, and in addition to that, he was the most miraculous man in the world. ”
Heng San was originally regarded as a man of few words, but he said so many words of praise for Wu Guang, which shows how much he appreciates this companion. From the beginning, everyone in the adventure team thought that Andorra's invitation to Wu Guang was a wrong choice, until now, this Shuguo native has become the most indispensable part of the adventure.
——
By the time the crowd began to walk into the cave, the sky had already begun to form. Getting in was easier than they thought. This is not the lair of demon beasts, nor is it the secret passage of the Hui demon, this is the passage that was built in ancient times and leads to the tomb of the black and white double emperor star, it is as straight as if it has been measured with a ruler, the floor is flat, the walls are smooth, and even the slope is calculated from the beginning, without the slightest change. However, no one knows what kind of darkness it leads to.
After a while, Dali and Erni began to mumble to themselves, and just as they could vaguely see the entrance, everyone stopped. Here, relying on the echoes of the cave, they were even able to estimate the direction of the entire passage. Then, these top psychics opened the veins of their bodies, using every means to detect the location of the position in front of them.
They kept moving forward, knowing that they could not even see the shadow of the door. Plunged into a place of complete darkness, the crowd lit up the darkness with spiritual magic, and the faint light brought a burst of warmth that comforted everyone.
As we went deeper, as we got closer and closer, there was a light in front of us. It was a moonlit glow that grew red, and it became warmer as the inside of the tunnel grew. Wisps of steam drifted past them, causing them to sweat all over their bodies, and a sound began to beat in their ears, sounding like something boiling and bubbling in a pot, and a sound similar to that of a big cat growling. Later, the sound slowly changed, the breathing of some kind of sleeping demon beast in the sealing spirit array.
The adventuring party stopped at this time, and it was the last thing they were sure of to continue. The real test of this trip is coming. Everyone's eyes widened, and the twelve veins continued to vibrate, this faint spiritual resonance did not come from elsewhere, but from the dark depths ahead, and in a place where they didn't know how far away, there was a monster beast that was a hundred times more powerful than the giant spider monster in the dark forest.
"This is the Nine Epic Demon Beasts?" Qiu Feng asked in surprise, and at some point he had an extra simple long sword in his hand, and the golden light filled his body, and like everyone else, the twelve veins were completely opened.
"Yes, and it's at the forefront of the Nine Great Demon Beasts—" Yokozo said calmly.
"It's hard for the twelve of us to beat this guy with certainty. "At least a strong army is needed." ”
"It's impossible. Honglushan also took out his own weapon, a huge battle axe, "Whether it is the demon clan or the human race, unilaterally fighting the epic demon beast is nothing more than sending it to death-mom D, these dogs BQ, how can there be such a monster here?"
Everyone stopped, and each step they took was a little closer to death before they could discuss a countermeasure.
The so-called demon beast was lying at the bottom of the tomb of the black and white twin emperor stars, and everyone could imagine how vast the tomb was. His sharp teeth and black smoke from his nostrils as he breathed, and under his limbs and tail were countless sparkling diamond treasures. Under the faint spiritual light, everyone could see the appearance of this dragon-shaped demon beast, and it folded its wings and lay on the ground like a huge bat. The whole body was surrounded by an extremely unstable sealing spirit array.
"What a strange feeling, have you noticed it?" Jiu Yun asked, "The sealing spirit array on this demon beast has two different powers. One is very old, powerful and powerful, and the other is strange and unpredictable. ”
Everyone began to notice the question raised by Jiu Yun, indeed, since the seal was such a powerful demon beast, why did it use it for two different powers?
"It should be done by two different forces, one in the front and the other in the back. Alin said. The three sisters of the Dragon Kingdom instantly understood the meaning contained in it.
"It seems that someone has been here before," Amu said, "This demon beast is called Tifeng, ranking fourth among the nine demon beasts, and the reason why it appeared here is that the Black and White Emperor is trying to prevent outsiders from stealing the Black and White Double Emperor Star." ”
But they didn't expect that someone would succeed in sealing the wind and leave here with the black and white double emperor star. Ah Sen said: "The second seal was left by the previous tomb robbers, this spiritual seal seems to be powerful, but the strength is far from the black and white emperors, as the world passes, the sealing spirit array appears to loosen. ”
"So, the Black and White Star Ring has been taken?" asked Dali.
"I'm afraid so," Leng Wu replied, "On the second seal, the extremely contradictory power of the Black and White Twin Emperor Stars appeared. ”
"But we haven't searched the cemetery yet, so is it too early to tell?" Erni asked.
"It's just speculation, but there's not much hope that we'll continue looking, and if we get the wind up, everyone will get out of the way. It's a loss-making deal—" said Nashichi.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Yokozo, and he was silent in a daze, and at this moment, it seemed like a century had passed. Finally, he involuntarily asked, "What do you think?" should you turn around and leave, or should you take the risk of looking for the Black and White Star Ring?" he asked Genesis and Honglushan.
"Of course, I will look for it, although there may not be much hope, but as an adventurer, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, you should grasp it. Besides, judging from the current situation, Tifeng is still in a sealed state, and its strength has been cut by half, if we work together, we may be able to defeat him. Honglushan said.
"I agree with Your Excellency Honglushan's idea," said Genesis, "entering the cemetery is to find the truth about the Black and White Emperors, and the Black and White Star Ring is just the icing on the cake, so we should explore the entire Black and White Emperors Tomb before making a decision." ”
"Very well, you think the same as mine," Yokozo said with satisfaction, "What we need to do is to find the truth, just like my grandfather and father, and use our lives to implement the value of faith." Even if there are many difficulties ahead, even at the risk of losing everything, we should go all the way. So, let's go—"
Indeed, this was Yokosan's last tirade, and since then, Wu Guang has never heard his voice again.
After the decision was made, everyone immediately lined up in battle formation, and they all cautiously groped their way forward in the darkness. Even if the epic-level demon beast is sealed by the spirit array, it is not an opponent to be underestimated, if its awakening is estimated and has thirty percent of its strength, it will become the most deadly danger. The monster beast has no feelings, and the source of its power is a substance that is the opposite of spiritual power—Zero—a black and dense—indescribable substance.
The adventurers controlled the output of spiritual power and strengthened the spiritual seal on the demon beast, allowing it to continue to lie dormant. But just when everything seemed to be going well, Tifeng sensed a strange force. There seemed to be a powerful object around him approaching him, a force condensed from the depths of hell, in the staircase of bones, in the dense sea of darkness.
Hell's Blood, Hell's Blood, Ever since it was sealed in this mountain range thousands of years ago, it had never felt such a threatening power, except for a fierce battle with a dragon girl a thousand years ago. Sealed twice, it instantly erupted into a thousand years of anger, like the undead who had been imprisoned for 10,000 years suddenly released, and found that they had not committed any mistakes and were punished undeservedly.
Almost instantly, the crumbling twelve sealing spirit arrays shattered, and the spiritual power that turned into fragments poured into the giant demon beast's body. A heart-rending wail was heard, shaking the dome of the entire Black and White Emperor's Tomb. It curled its body, and the zero power in its body had long been exhausted in the years it had been sealed, and now the demon beast only had less than one percent of its strength left.
It spat out flames of high heat, smoke rose from the entire hall, and the mountains shook as well. It tried in vain to get out of here, curled up, let out a thunderstorm guttural sound, and then left the palace in the mountains and headed for the gate.
At this time, the only thought in its mind was to leave the tomb of the living dead, and then find a place to kill thousands of living beings, and breathe a bad breath for its humiliation for thousands of years. It burst through the gate, and the water in the mountains instantly turned to steam, and it leaped into the air with wings, hovering through the clouds, engulfing half of the hillside with deadly flames of bright red and emerald green. Under the protection of spiritual power, the adventure team easily came to the boulder in the col through the spatial displacement spirit array, and saw the angry eyes of the dragon.
