Chapter 44: Ancient Ruins
In this way, Liu Qi joined the team and followed behind him silently, but Liu Qi looked a little out of place inside, except for Liu Qi, the others in this team were peerless masters, except for the old man in purple, there were two men and two women, and they were much older than Liu Qi, Liu Qi followed behind like a doll.
After ten miles of progress, an oppressive atmosphere began to fill the air, and there was no longer any sound around it, and no more creatures were seen, which made people shudder.
"Master, it's closer, a few miles further is the range of the ancient ruins, that place is very dangerous, there is a bone dragon guarding the center, and the disciple couldn't enter it at that time. The situation inside the disciples is also unknown. "The middle-aged man who attacked Liu Qi had obviously come to the ancient ruins, but he didn't go deeper.
Then the group advanced a few more miles, the fog around them began to thin out, visibility increased, and the ruins of some buildings could be faintly seen, and the humidity in the air had dropped to the normal range.
Liu Qi was quickly surprised that the environment around the ancient ruins was completely different from the Dew Forest.
At the same time, the oppressive atmosphere is obviously stronger, and there is also a coercion that is like nothing, which makes people can't help but have a trace of fear in their hearts, as if there is a god of death sleeping in the ancient ruins, and he will wake up at any time, which is a kind of throbbing from the soul.
"Young man, you have also felt the strangeness of this ancient ruin, do you still want to walk with us?" said the old man in purple with a calm face to Liu Qi.
"I also hope that the seniors will approve it, since they are here, the juniors are willing to take risks. Although he was a little short of breath by the strange atmosphere and inexplicable coercion, he could still withstand it, and he had already called up the teleportation function to fill in the coordinates, and if the situation was not right, he would disappear immediately.
"Haha, the courage is commendable, just the second order dares to break into the depths of this dew forest alone, and wants to go deep into the ancient ruins. Haha, although I don't know if you are ignorant or fearless, but your personality is very similar to that of the old man when he was young. The old man in purple laughed, and then said: "But the old man still advises you, with your cultivation, I am afraid that you will die in this ancient ruin." ”
"Life and death have fate, and the younger generation has already realized. ”
"In that case, let's go. With that, the old man in purple took the lead and walked forward.
Before leaving, Liu Qi felt the inexplicable glances of several disciples of the old man in purple, which seemed to mean that he really didn't know whether he was alive or dead.
Stepping into the range of the ancient ruins, stepping on the ruins, Liu Qi felt extremely shocked, the visibility in the ancient ruins was very good, all the fog was isolated by an invisible force, according to the range that could be seen Liu Qi basically judged the area of the ancient ruins, it was huge, like a city, with huge thick city walls, pavilions and buildings on the city walls, and defensive arrow towers, Liu Qi could imagine how magnificent the intact city was.
However, with the passage of time, the city has become devastated and covered with mossy vines.
Many places have collapsed, and the ruins are paved all over the ground, and in some places the gaps are obvious, which were instantly destroyed by the powerful attack force, because those gaps are very neat. Liu Qi could guess that this city had experienced a tragic battle.
The mist swirled around and above the ancient ruins, isolating a huge space, like a protective shield covering the entire city.
Boom, there was a loud noise in the ancient ruins, and some buildings were being destroyed and collapsed, and not only in one place, but also in other places.
"Oh, it looks like quite a few people got there before us. Let's go, let's go to the meeting. After the old man in purple finished speaking, he said to Liu Qi: "Young man, don't leave it at that, and do it yourself." ”
After speaking, he quickly swept forward with his apprentice.
"Senior, junior Liu Qi, can you tell me your identity. Liu Qi hurriedly shouted.
"If you are alive and have the opportunity to see you again, the old man will tell you your name. After saying that, he disappeared completely.
The purple-clothed old man left with his apprentice, Liu Qi resisted the fear in his heart, and slowly entered the ancient ruins, the deeper he went, the heavier the pressure, Liu Qi felt a little difficult to breathe.
There was a clanging sound, and the sound of soldiers clashing came, and Liu Qi knew that there was someone fighting in front of him.
Sneaking past, he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat when he saw the battle ahead.
"That's it, the undead. Liu Qi muttered to himself.
Dozens of skeletons were engaged in a battle with several monks, armed with a variety of weapons, knives, guns, clubs, swords, shields, and several corpses of monks that were not completely decomposed. With hollow eyes, they became one of the skeleton soldiers, constantly attacking those monks, and these skeleton soldiers were very intelligent, able to cooperate with each other, and could accurately seize the opportunity to use the skills of the deceased to attack those monks.
The monks who were attacked seemed to be very strong, and they used various skills one after another, and they had already smashed several skeletons in a move and sideways.
Liu Qi knew that those skeleton soldiers belonged to a kind of undead creatures, and Liu Qi had seen records in the royal family's classic collection room, and the appearance of such creatures meant that they were ominous, and each appearance indicated that something big would happen. I didn't expect so many ancient ruins to appear.
Liu Qi didn't dare to stay for a long time, he was afraid of being discovered by the skeleton soldiers, so he retreated cautiously, and then changed to a direction to touch, but wherever he went, he could hear the sound of fighting, and there seemed to be a lot of monks.
These people must have come to hunt for treasure and try their luck, and their strength is very strong, and they should have reached the third-order realm at the very least.
Liu Qi's current strength did not allow him to venture into the ancient ruins, so he could only sneak around and look for areas that he could explore.
Finally he saw a place that had been cleared of ruins, and all the creatures there seemed to have been slain, leaving behind the corpses of many strange creatures and skeletons scattered all over the ground, in addition to the corpses of some monks, and some of the stone doors there had been shattered, apparently scraped.
Liu Qi leaned over and carefully observed to see if there was anything missing.
It's a pity that there are no items worth taking away, the weapons used by those skeletons are already dilapidated, at this time Liu Qi saw a hole, the square is not big, just enough to pass through three people at the same time, the hole is inclined to the ground, dark and deep, there are gusts of wind blowing out.
Liu Qi leaned over, very cautious, and when he saw that there were several blood stains extending down the doorway, like traces left by dragging, Liu Qi felt a creep, something had dragged the corpses of those monks from this hole into the ground.
Liu Qi, who reflected it, wanted to turn around and leave, but it was too late, a wolf-like undead creature covered in black and composed of various corpses suddenly appeared behind him, this is one of the undead creatures, much stronger than skeleton soldiers.
roar
The wolf-type undead creature roared and quickly pounced on him, Liu Qi didn't even have time to react, he was pounced on by the wolf-type monster, and rolled down the hole to the bottom of the cave, in the process, Liu Qi was constantly bitten by the wolf-type monster, and Liu Qi grinned in pain.
He took out the scale thorns, injected them with true qi, and stabbed them all indiscriminately.
Woo...
Obviously, this wolf-type monster obviously knew the pain, and when it was stabbed by Liu Qi, it let out a roar, and because of the narrow entrance of the hole, the wolf-type creature was in pain.
Boom, I don't know if it's because the hole is not stable enough for years, or because the wolf-like creature is too strong, the hole is knocked and collapsed, and the exit is completely sealed.
