Chapter 232: Blood Sacrifice on the Altar
It was night, a thin and slender black shadow wandered in the canyon where the spotted leopard was like entering a no-man's land, and there were two large and small figures on each shoulder, which were Luo Xin and Meat Ball and Fat Fat.
Luo Xin's consciousness was now in a fully open state, and all the movements around him were in his mind.
"Heart, to the left, there's something there."
"Hmm, got it."
It is not surprising that this human and two beasts are indeed ready to loot all the spirit plants in the Colorful Leopard's lair.
In Luo Xin's words, these beasts don't know how to refine pills and medicines, and these spirit plants are just tyrannical creatures, so it's better to give them all to her to save the world. (Alas, what a speechless word, the person who used the pill to make money doesn't know who roared~)
She couldn't see clearly at night, and she didn't dare to take out her last night pearl for fear of startling the snake, so she groped all the way, coupled with the fat road, and it took twice the normal time to find her destination.
Standing outside the courtyard that was simply surrounded by a wooden fence, Luo Xin covered his little heart excitedly, "Is it just in here?" ā
"yes, I feel like there's a lot of good stuff in there." Fatty also moved his little paws excitedly, and the pupils of Youlan radiated a crystal color.
Easily flashed into the yard, staring at it, faintly could see one plant after another on the land, lowering his body, Luo Xin was surprised to identify various high-level spiritual plants.
Stuffing the Qiankun bags that had been prepared into each of their hands, Luo Xin commanded in a low voice: "All spiritual plants, take them all, hurry up, before dawn, we must finish searching." ā
"Got it."
"Aggie, Aggie."
So, one man and two beasts were in this moon, dark and windy. Started some unknown things.
After Peng Jihan finally reached the top of the cliff, he gasped when he saw the qiÄ in front of him. The hope in his heart was instantly cold, just because of the place he stepped on. It's all barren, endless barrenness, and not a single grass grows.
At this moment, he only felt that his body was weak, as if the strength in his body had suddenly disappeared inexplicably, in fact, he knew. It's not strength, it's courage and hope, which are obliterated by the facts.
He fell to his knees with a thud and looked at the gray sky. Peng Jihan didn't know how to tell the brothers below about this fact.
Peng Jihan's mind was buzzing until ......
"Bang...... Boom ......"
Suddenly, a roar exploded in the air, like a raging wave in the sea, breaking through the horizon of the sea and rushing towards the end of the world. The scorching heat in the air had more than doubled, and Peng Jihan's black hair draped over his shoulders was already curled up at the ends.
Stunned, I was greeted by an active volcano erupting, and needless to say, the sudden increase in temperature was caused by the eruption. The fiery red magma rolled in like a wave, flowing all over the place, and from time to time thousands of scattered flints erupted from the center of the crater, falling under the parabolic line and falling on the rock wall ground in the distance, bringing up a trace of sparks.
As the volcano continued to erupt, the previously flat barren ground formed a circle of modules in the area centered on the volcano, and the ground cracked apart, as if someone had deliberately cut it with a sharp weapon, and it didn't take long for the ground to begin to sink until the crater was parallel to the ground and became a volcano surrounded by cliffs in the center.
The gray sky was rendered red by the firelight, which was very beautiful.
Grunt...... The dry throat kept sliding, Peng Jihan knelt on the ground and did not move, his mind was spinning rapidly, and the map in his hand was spread on the ground.
"Volcanic Point...... Over here...... Yes, this is it......" After comparing it with the address image on the map several times, Peng Jihan's heart began to beat rapidly, and he couldn't believe that he had really found his destination.
"Big brother, this should be the so-called Eye of Hell, but with such a big fire, how do we get in?" The people who had climbed up were also excited and happy after seeing the destination, but when the joy settled down, the fact that it was difficult to move an inch made them worry again, didn't the colorful leopard say that the words of snow are in the eyes of hell? How do they get into the volcano?
"This fire is so fierce that if we touch it, we will probably be melted into ashes."
Guan Chong picked up a basketball-sized stone from the ground, raised his hand and threw it into the tongue of fire at the edge of the volcano, and the stone was reduced to ashes in an instant.
Everyone's pupils shrank fiercely, they didn't expect this fire to be so domineering.
"This should be able to get in." Peng Jihan was silent for a while, and his right hand slowly spread out, revealing an ice-blue egg-sized round bead, and the blue fluorescence floating on it was like flowing living water, crystal dazzling.
"What is this?" Seeing the beads, Peng Jihao asked in surprise, why did he never see his eldest brother take out this bead.
"This is an ice bead, it was given to me by Uncle Xiaoshi, and he said that he could use it." Holding the ice beads in the palm of his hand, he felt the temperature around his body drop rapidly, and a faint coolness spread to his whole body through his palm, subsiding all the tiredness.
"Ah, the volcano has stopped erupting." Suddenly, someone exclaimed.
I saw that the pitch-black crater that was still spitting tongues of fire just now had calmed down at this time, and there was a dead silence around it, not even a single spark remained, as if the volcanic eruption just now was just a dream, just the traces left by the charred black matter left on the ground.
"Shall we go down and have a look?" Someone mentioned yƬ.
"No, wait, I guess this volcano should have a coherent eruption interval." He Binghan stopped Jian Chong's impulse.
The words fell, and sure enough, a fierce tongue of fire burst out from that mouth, reflecting a pair of black pupils.
Back in the cave, the sky was already dark, and the three of them began to rummage through the space.
Xiu had already woken up from his cultivation when the air in the space fluctuated, but he didn't expect to see a pile of cyan 'weeds', and there were one man and two beasts squatting in front of the weeds.
After a few tosses and turns, after making sure that the ones picked in were all spirit plants, Luo Xin smirked happily, many of these spirit plants were high-grade spirit plants that had existed in the space before but were lost after the disaster, and there were even a few superb, and the vintage was not bad, how could this not make her happy?
"Xiu, come here, let's sort these together, they can't be mixed together."
The spirit plants were sorted and stacked together, and then the best seed cultivation fields were selected, and after a busy life, the sky outside was already bright.
"Something has happened to the altar, king." Mu was leaning on his queen and enjoying the soft fragrance of warm jade, when suddenly there was a roar outside, startling him so much that he almost fell off the bed.
"What the hell is going on?" Mou, who was very unhappy because of the disturbance, jumped off the bed when he heard that something happened to the altar, and rushed towards the door, the altar is related to the life and death of the entire Colorful Leopard Clan, if there is any accident at the altar, their clan, I am afraid that there will be a disaster of extinction.
The golden leopard queen summoned the servant beasts outside immediately after Mu left.
"What's going on? Specifically. ā
"Yes, Queen, early this morning, the patrol guards found a dozen long-dead people on the altar, and all the blood had dried up, defiling the idols, and it was said that they were dying as if they were committing mass suicide."
"Oh? Mass suicide? Didn't he kill? The queen's golden eyes flickered with darkness.
"Yes."
"Well, let's get out."
"Yes."
When Mu arrived at the altar, what he saw was on the altar, fifteen young colorful leopards lying side by side on the altar, facing the altar on the left side of the altar, the neck was neatly cut with a large mouth-like wound, the blood was flowing from there, and the colorful leopard statues placed around the altar were also completely soaked with blood and turned blood red.
"Roar...... What the hell is going on? Mu roared angrily, the altar is the root of the Colorful Clan, and blood is not allowed to appear, otherwise there will be unimaginable disasters in the Clan, but what I didn't expect is that now even the statue of the god is stained red with blood, is it the catastrophe of the Colorful Clan?
The people of the Spotted Leopard Clan all gathered outside the altar, looking at the fifteen corpses on the altar, the emotions in their eyes suppressed horror and resistance.
"Old demon, have you found out the cause of death?" Suppressing the anger in his chest, Mu said in a low voice.
"King, they died by suicide." A gray and white spotted leopard came out of the group, its head lowered, and there was indifference and calmness in its voice.
"How can it be suicide?" Mu didn't believe it at all, because he couldn't understand why the clansmen wanted to commit suicide on the altar, and the way to die was the same way, as if it was like slashing the neck.
Stunned by the king's eyes, the old demon spoke again: "King, the old demon is not lying, the old demon has already checked it before the king comes, and their right paw is ......."
Luo Xin, who was meditating in the cave, suddenly heard a loud sound of stones moving outside, followed by a dazzling light coming from outside the cave.
Narrowing his eyes, Luo Xin's puzzled gaze swept over, did these leopards want to let themselves go? Or have you already gotten something back?
"Humans, come out, the king is invited." A tired and trembling male voice came from the mouth of the cave.
Following behind the two leopards, Luo Xin and Xiubuzi were slow and leisurely, with a relaxed appearance, they didn't know the hostages at all, as if they were walking in their private pavilions.
The two spotted leopards threw hateful eyes at the two behind them from time to time, they didn't think that their people would not think of committing suicide, or in the altar, in their opinion, these two humans did bad things, sure enough, they shouldn't have let the king leave their lives in the first place, otherwise such a tragic thing would not have happened today, thinking of the catastrophe that blood on the altar might bring to the clansmen, the two spotted leopards wanted to tear the two behind them to pieces.
