Chapter 253: The Secret of the Ten Servants of Wind and Thunder
Chen Lei looked in the direction of Rong Yan's finger, only to find that he was pointing to the place after he took the treasure chest just now, only to see a short metal rod in the center of the flower, and there was a small spherical groove at the top of this metal rod, Chen Lei didn't notice that the treasure chest was placed on it before, and now after the treasure chest was taken down by Chen Lei, the groove leaked out, Chen Lei looked at the hemispherical groove, and then looked at the milky white ball in his hand, and faintly understood the meaning of Rong Yan.
"You mean that this ball is placed on top of that?" Chen Lei raised the ball in his hand and asked Rong Yan suspiciously.
"I looked closely, there was nothing in this room that could be done, and this ball couldn't see anything magical, so I thought there must be something wrong with it, and now it seems that this ball should be placed there, although I don't know what it does, but it's better to try than to do nothing, otherwise we may really go home empty-handed." Rong Yan said firmly to Chen Lei.
"Okay, I'll try. Chen Lei also understood that he had no choice now, so he took the milky white ball in his hand and walked towards the stone platform.
I don't know what material this round ball is, it looks like it is not stone or jade, it has a cool and warm feeling to the touch, Chen Lei walked to the edge of the stone platform and put the ball in his hand in the hemispherical groove at the top of the metal rod in the heart of the flower, the two were perfectly integrated, and then he saw that the entire stone platform emitted a milky white light, Chen Lei hurriedly took a few steps back and was carefully guarded.
The stone platform emitted a milky white light, and then the light slowly gathered to the center of the flower at the top, and with a tremor of the stone platform, an inverted cone-shaped milky white light curtain appeared in the air with the top ball as the apex, and then a figure appeared in it.
Above the stone platform is a bust of a person, this person looks middle-aged, his square facial features look very majestic, his thick eyebrows are standing and his nose is straight, and his slowly open eyes shoot out a strong light, giving people a sense of righteousness.
Chen Lei and Rong Yan watched all these changes happen in amazement, not knowing what was going on, they all looked at the portrait intently, waiting with bated breath. I saw that the corner of the figure's mouth smiled slightly after slowly opening its eyes, and then the figure actually spoke.
"Hello junior, I don't know who we are descending from, but it doesn't matter now. I'm sure you must have a lot of questions to ask me, but now I'm just a video I'm afraid I can't answer your question, so I'm going to tell you the most important thing we want to tell future generations, this image can only last for a while, so I can only say it once, you have to remember it carefully. The figure in the light curtain then told a secret story that no one knew, which shocked Chen Lei and Rong Yan in their hearts.
It turned out that back then, the Ten Servants of Wind and Thunder were ten sworn brothers, and the ten of them cultivated together, lived together, and were happy together. It wasn't until later that all ten of them cultivated and became the top existence in the Yellowstone Continent, and several people have always been together and have never been separated.
Although some people have families and descendants gradually, they still live together, just on the sea of this treasure location, it used to be a small island with a beautiful environment, and ten people lived and cultivated in isolation on the island, and the cultivation speed of each of them was surprisingly consistent, and all of them reached the peak of the Yellowstone Continent at the same time.
But just when the ten of them reached the peak of cultivation together, something happened. And this incident also changed the lives of ten people, and their fates all went to the other extreme.
"Whenever a cultivator on the Yellowstone Continent cultivates to the pinnacle of this plane, a heavenly punishment will descend from the outer heavens to test this person. And this is not only a crisis, but also an exam, if a cultivator can get through this crisis, then he will be led to the outer heavens, and then he will have a higher level of skill and cultivation realm. However, if a cultivator does not survive this crisis, then at least he will lose his strength and will not be able to cultivate to the fullest level in the future, or at worst, his life will be lost. The figure explained slowly.
Just when this figure said this, Rong Yan's face changed, he glanced at Chen Lei beside him, and found that he was listening intently to the figure and didn't pay attention to himself, thinking that Chen Lei didn't know these specific situations.
The figure continued: "Back then, the ten of us cultivated together to Dacheng, and we were all very excited in our hearts, and we didn't realize the seriousness of this matter, so we were very excited and began to gather spiritual power to prepare for the test of heavenly punishment. But what we didn't expect was that this test was beyond everyone's expectations. ”
"The test of heavenly punishment is set according to the strength and number of cultivators, which means that the more you admit defeat, the more difficult the test will be, this is not a simple matter of one plus one, but the difficulty increases exponentially. None of us knew about it at the time, and because we had never been apart, the ten of us met the heavenly punishment together. ”
"Usually, the cultivators of the Yellowstone Continent have experienced all the tests of the Heavenly Fire Quenching Body, but this time it was not, at that time, there was no large area of bright red Heavenly Fire gathering and spreading in the air like the one we had seen before, but a black-purple ball appeared out of thin air in the void, and this ball slowly fell to the center of the circle where the ten of us were sitting, and suddenly turned into ten black-purple pillars of light and instantly entered the bodies of the ten of us. ”
And it was at the moment when these ten pillars of black and purple light entered our bodies, that all of us knew that we had failed this time, and it was the most serious failure, because at this moment, this pillar of black and purple light that entered our body shattered the spiritual platform that we had cultivated for many years, making our bodies chaotic into a pot of porridge, and all the energy began to run wildly in our bodies, and in an instant, our bodies were all twisted into a paste by this energy. ”
And that means we only have three days left in our lives at most, after which we all die, and our lives come to an abrupt end. But this is not the end, the attack of the energy pillar is not completely over, after destroying our bodies, these black and purple energy flew out of our body, and re-converged into that black and purple ball of light, and then plunged into the ground under us at once. ”
"Then something even more terrible happened, and this incident is the root cause of our despair, and it is also the reason and purpose for us to set up this place. The same cruel thing I'm going to tell you, kid. The figure said this, but his voice became quieter, and gradually fell silent, as if he was crying sadly.
