Chapter 107: Heading to the Underground Ancient City

More than two hundred miles away from the Wild King City, there is a peculiar terrain. Several bare peaks surround each other, forming a huge pit in the middle, known as the "Heavenly Pond". However, there is no water stored here, because the surrounding caves are densely packed like beehives, which have become natural water channels.

For hundreds of years, there has been no human presence here, and no one inside or outside the city dares to enter this place, even if it passes through from the outside, it is like a cold man, creepy.

At night, it was even more dead and silent, and there was not even the sound of birds and beasts.

The moon hung above the clouds, illuminating the entire Tianchi white, cold, and lonely.

The two of them finally climbed in from the cliff that was difficult for apes to climb, but they were already exhausted, especially Xu Ning, because he had to help take care of Yan Bing from time to time, there were many cuts on his body, and some of them even oozing blood.

The two rested for a moment in the shadow of the hill, and then hurried down the hill.

Without the cover of trees, the moonlight is so bright that it is impossible to be completely invisible, but fortunately, the mountains are rocky and you can constantly hide in the dark.

Going all the way in this way, I entered the inside of the Heavenly Pond. From the top of the mountain, this sinkhole is already huge, and it feels even more small when you go down. At the bottom of Tianchi, there is no grass.

Xu Ning couldn't help but be a little suspicious, the grass and trees outside this cave were difficult to grow, how could that weird colorful fairy orchid grow underground?

But see that on the stone walls of the mountain peaks surrounded by Tianchi, there are dense caves, some big and some small are really like honeycombs, and there are winds blowing through, like thunder.

Yan Bing had been here many times to steal grass seeds, and he was familiar with the road and took Xu Ning to find that entrance quickly.

This is also a cave, and there is nothing special about the surrounding caves.

The entrance to the cave sloped downward, and the moon shone in, and the entrance was still a little bright, and it was pitch black after a short walk inside. Standing five or six zhang away from the entrance of the cave, Xu Ning felt a gust of wind in the cave, blowing on his body, cold to the bone. At the same time, there were faintly some strange sounds coming softly, like someone crying and like a ghost whispering, which made people's scalp tingle.

Yan Bing carefully led the way in front and looked back at Xu Ning from time to time, his face was full of happiness and excitement, as if this was the path to the Heavenly Wonderland. Xu Ning didn't know what to say, his expression was silent, he only followed her, and he didn't know what kind of herb was soaked in her hair, which was fragrant and refreshing, but it dispersed a lot of turbidity in Lidongli.

The more she walked inside, the stronger and colder the gust of wind in the cave became, Xu Ning remembered such a terrible place, she was a girl who had to go into danger alone, and her heart was inexplicably distressed. He approached her with his body intentionally or unintentionally, and Yan Bing also seemed to be able to feel this closeness, and quietly pursed his lips and smiled.

Sometimes when walking, there is a bright light projected from somewhere, Xu Ning understood, it is estimated that some caves are connected to each other, and sure enough, this passerby will walk up and down for a while, turning around, so complicated.

He couldn't help but secretly admire Yan Bing, thinking to himself how could she remember such a complex terrain so clearly.

In the darkness, he quietly grabbed her delicate and boneless hand from behind, and asked in his ear, "Did you make any marks here?" ”

Yan Bing also put his mouth next to his ear and told him delicately: "If you look carefully at the stone wall, there are some faint chisel marks on it, but they are all passwords left by the ancestors. ”

Xu Ning's heart was tickled by the breath she exhaled, and she couldn't help but squeeze her little hand tightly with her palm.

After walking for a while, the two entered a relatively spacious stone cave, and there was a little light, Xu Ning looked up and looked around, and sure enough, there was a gap on one side, and the moonlight flowed in from that gap.

It seems that these peaks are all in the air, which is really amazing.

Yan Bing stopped and whispered to Xu Ning, "Brother, do you see that strange circle in the middle of the cave?" ”

Xu Ning looked carefully, and sure enough, there was a slightly concave circle in the middle of the ground, and the color of the stone was also different, and it seemed to be slightly whiter.

He nodded, his eyes only looking at Yan Bing, to let her continue.

Yan Bing held his hand tightly, still whispering: "We will stand on it later, the stone will suddenly fall, you must not panic and shout, if you are afraid, close your eyes, and you can land safely." ”

After Xu Ning listened to her words, he couldn't help but think, thinking to himself how bold I Xu Ning is, you are not afraid of how I will be afraid. But seeing her caring look, she didn't say anything more, just nodded in agreement.

Yan Bing saw that he solemnly agreed, so he walked side by side with Xu Ning to the mysterious cobblestone, and suddenly hugged Xu Ning tightly, and pressed his face to his chest. When Xu Ning was puzzled, he stepped hard under Yan Bing's feet, and the whole cobblestone suddenly shook a few times, which really startled Xu Ning.

At first, the stone still fell slowly, and after a while, the two of them fell straight into the air.

The boundless darkness completely engulfed the two of them, and they kept falling downward. Xu Ning was shocked in his heart, this couldn't help but make him not afraid, even if he cultivated to a higher level, no matter how good his cultivation was, it was useless at this moment, if he fell below, he would definitely be crushed!

In the dark, he felt that a soft body wrapped himself tightly, Xu Ning was much more determined in his heart, buried his head on her fragrant shoulder, and used his hands even more, and the two hugged each other tightly and fell together.

Suddenly, Xu Ning felt as if his body was being held up by something, and the whole person seemed to be floating in the air. He opened his eyes and saw countless white rays of light appearing in the darkness around him, of course this was not moonlight, the moonlight was not so bright.

He looked down and saw that there was an altar-like stone platform below, and those white lights burst out from the stone platform, which was so strange.

Xu Ning found that the two of them were not floating in the air, but the speed of the white light holding the descent slowed down and slowed down a lot. It just floated slowly to the altar.

Yan Bing left his arms and began to look around for movements, and the expression on her face gradually became nervous and solemn.

Xu Ning was quite curious about this altar, this altar was made of red stones, and those magical white lights were emitted from the strange runes inscribed around the altar.

The area around the altar was still unreal, as if there was a thick black fog in the air, and there were no stones or other objects in sight.

"Brother Xu Ning, come with me."

Xu Ning turned around and saw that Yan Bing under the altar was moving towards her, and she had already held the horn bow on her back in her hand. Xu Ning jumped off the altar, and the two walked towards a cave densely covered with stalactite pillars, the further they went, the brighter the surroundings became, this stalactite-like stone would emit a glowing green light, and the whole cave seemed to be as peculiar as starlight.

You can also hear the dripping water droplets, presumably formed by leaking from somewhere above, and it seems that this cave does not know how many thousands of years it has existed.

Walking through this magical cave, it was another dark passage, pitch black, but Xu Ning found something unusual about this trail: this trail was obviously artificially built!

Both times are built with polished smooth stones, and the workmanship is exquisitely seamless. He could see things in the dark, and saw that there were some strange patterns carved on these stones, and these lines were obviously some scenes in daily life, some of which reflected birth, old age, sickness and death, and some of which were daily farming and hunting, which were very rich.

It wasn't until he saw a huge monster like a snake and a dragon that he was puzzled, this monster clearly had a pair of wings on its back, and it didn't know whether it was fire or poisonous mist spewing out of its mouth. And judging from the humans who fell and died below, this terrifying monster was quite huge.

What is this stone mural trying to convey? Xu Ning's heart faintly felt a little uneasy.

Yan Bing in front of him stopped, turned his head and signaled Xu Ning not to make a sound, then squatted down, and took out a bow and arrow from his quiver and put it on the string.

Xu Ning leaned over slowly, he knew that Yan Bing must have discovered some danger.

Before he had time to observe the movement in front of him, there was a "whoosh" in his ear, and Yan Bing had already shot an arrow.

After the arrow was fired, the two of them hid in the dark passage for a long time, and sure enough, there was a sound of something falling into the water.

"It's a monkey!"

Yan Bing said softly.

"Monkeys? What do you kill a monkey for? Xu Ning asked puzzled.

"This is no ordinary monkey." Yan Bing stood up and walked as he walked, "This monkey is called a blood monkey to be precise, it is not only dangerous but also makes a lot of noise. ”

The two walked for a while, until a light appeared in front of them.

It's a wave of color, and it's constantly changing and alternating colors, and it's beautiful.

Xu Ning didn't dare to move around casually, squatted behind Yan Bing, looked out and listened.

This light came from below, because the place where the two of them were hiding now was an exit from the passage, and there was obviously a cliff in front of them, but they hadn't completely walked out of the passage, and Xu Ning didn't know whether it was or not.

Yan Bing squatted in front of him, his long waterfall-like hair falling to his waist, and a rope around his head, just fragrant and refreshing. Snow-white skin peeked out from the tight-fitting animal skin clothing, delicate and silky.

Xu Ning felt a little suffocated. The two people in front of them were grinding their ears and temples in the room of the inn, and Xu Ning's heart seemed to have nowhere to rely on.

In fact, he was only seventeen years old, and a young man with strong blood and strength could not be calm and indifferent to beauty, not to mention that there was such a strange elf and beautiful woman in front of him, and this woman still had the same fearless courage as him in her body.

After observing for a long time, after determining that it was absolutely safe, Yan Bing finally stood up and walked to the cliff, Xu Ning followed, and sure enough, he saw a bright spot below, what else could it be if it wasn't a colorful fairy orchid array?

The cliff where the two of them stood was hundreds of meters above the ground, and they felt more and more that the sea of flowers composed of colorful fairy orchids was so strange and beautiful, and it was really colorful, and it would shine like a shimmering and changing color.

And the space below must be much larger than what can be seen now, and it is not clear where it leads.

Xu Ning decided to go down, such a beautiful scenery, where would he still remember that there was something terrible hiding in this vicinity.

He said, "Bing'er, let's go down and dig and collect the flower seeds of the colorful fairy orchid, and we can leave this valley before dawn." ”

Yan Bing listened intently for a while, and finally made up his mind, nodded and said, "Well, without further ado." But I'm in charge of collecting, you just have to watch the movement from the side, and if you find any creatures approaching, you must not hesitate to kill them. ”
