Chapter Ninety-Eight: Inverted Pentagram
Let's say that Zhu Yan and Chen Lan were startled by the strange Stonehenge, and they jumped back on the back of the crow, ready to go back and ask about the situation first. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
But before leaving, Zhu Yan asked the crow to fly around Stonehenge a few more times, and sure enough, he found something strange about it. Although tens of thousands of years of wind and rain erosion, thunder and ice chisels, some boulders have weathered and collapsed, but if you look closely, you can still see that these boulders are roughly interlaced into a pentagonal pattern.
"Pentagon? What kind of formation is that? Chen Lan also noticed this, and she asked softly.
"There is a pentagram magic in Western fantasy stories, which is said to be used to summon elves and demons, is it really true?"
Zhu Yan thought for a while and said, and suddenly he seemed to remember something again, and flew around Stonehenge with the crow.
"I see, this is not a pentagram, but an inverted pentagram, and one of its tips is facing downward. In ancient legends, the inverted pentagram represents hell and evil, and its English name is Lucifer, which is translated as Lucifer in Chinese, and is the archangel who fell into the devil in biblical legend. Could it be that this Stonehenge is a relic of the ancient gods and demons? ”
Chen Lanming couldn't help but be shocked, she still remembered that terrifying dream clearly, she thought it was just a plot in myths and legends, but she didn't expect that there was a living physical evidence in front of her.
She glanced at Zhu Yan and said, "Let's go down and have a look!" Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep well. ”
Zhu Yan nodded, and the crow slowly landed again.
The two of them disembarked from the crow's back, gathered their spirits and perceptions, and approached Stonehenge step by step. The closer they got to Stonehenge, the more trance-like their spirits became, as if there was a mysterious force constantly hypnotizing. But despite this, the two still insisted on touching the first boulder.
As soon as they touched the first boulder, countless horrific images flooded into their consciousness, with boundless anxiety, tension, anger, frustration, sadness, and pain.
Zhu Yan has never been able to forget the appearance of his mother's death, which often makes him feel guilty, remorseful and painful in his sleep. At this time, his consciousness was presented by his mother's blame for him: why couldn't he dissuade his father? Why can't he take on the responsibility of the family? Why can't he give his mother happiness? Why...... Those negative emotions were infinitely magnified, like thousands of sharp knives, constantly tearing his heart, and a dangerous thought quietly sprouted: Please take me with you, Mother!
Chen Lan's situation is similar, she has not experienced many hardships since she was a child, but she has been afraid of snakes since she was a child. At this moment, what appeared in her consciousness was countless multicolored poisonous snakes, which were pounced on him with their teeth and claws, and the wet snake hyacinth had already touched the skin. She tried to push them away, but she couldn't muster any strength, she wanted to shout loudly, but she couldn't. That kind of negative emotions, like rushing waves, kept beating her consciousness, constantly reminding her to turn around and run!
Behind them, the Raven had long since stopped moving, the dangerous aura that kept it in its tracks. At this time, it was staring nervously at Zhu Yan and Chen Lan, and once something was wrong, it would pull them to run away.
In just a few seconds, Zhu Yan and Chen Lan seemed to have spent centuries, their breathing shortness, their faces pale, and their bodies covered in cold sweat. This situation is very similar to when people have nightmares, many people die suddenly in a dream because of the dream, and many more people may wake up directly, and only a few people realize that it is just a dream.
In this situation of Zhu Yan and Chen Lan, there is absolutely no possibility of waking up, because they are not in their own dreams, but in the illusion, if they can't realize that this is an illusion, there is no possibility of waking up.
Fortunately, both of them have strong soul energy, so their ability to withstand mental pressure is far beyond ordinary people. When the waves of negativity drowned them over and over again, they finally realized that none of this was true.
Zhu Yan was the first to break free from the illusion, and he shouted to the "mother" in the illusion: "Devil, get out!" Suddenly, the illusion in consciousness vanished. Of course, soon a new illusion was born in his consciousness, but by this time he was not afraid at all, and his steps had already stepped into the inverted pentagram.
Chen Lan also woke up from the illusion, she moved her body closer to the poisonous snakes, those poisonous snakes actually passed through the body, and she immediately understood that the poisonous snakes were just illusions. Then, the other illusions also faded one by one, and she followed Zhu Yan into the inverted pentagram.
When the illusion dissipated, the scene in front of them gradually became clear, and they saw countless boulders towering on a flat rock face, and the rock face between the boulders was carved with many ancient symbols. In the center of Stonehenge, a huge amethyst measuring one meter square is inlaid, and an ancient symbol is engraved on each face of the amethyst.
Zhu Yan and Chen Lan felt an extremely evil aura almost at the same time, emanating from the amethyst and rushing towards their consciousness, immediately making them feel upset, irritable and almost crazy.
Zhu Yan restrained his mind and released some aura to perceive it, but it was like a mud cow entering the sea, and was immediately devoured by it, as if it was a giant beast with a bloody mouth open. Only then did they realize that most of the illusions and strange phenomena they had encountered before were related to this strange amethyst. They didn't know that it was precisely because of this amethyst's active absorption of the vitality of the surrounding heaven and earth that the electromagnetic field within a radius of several miles was disordered, and the electronic instruments were abnormal, thus becoming the famous "Bermuda" of Changbai Mountain.
It seems that this amethyst should be the core energy of the inverted pentagram array, and it is also the key to the summoning ability of this array in the legend. In ancient legends, the inverted pentagram can automatically absorb evil energy, and when the spell of the inverted pentagram is recited, demons can be summoned from hell.
Are those ancient symbols spells that summon demons?
As soon as he thought of this, Zhu Yan immediately went to find those ancient symbols on the rock face, and then used the "Six Veins Divine Sword" to eradicate them one by one. Of course, he had memorized these symbols before eradicating them, and perhaps they could be used for research later.
Chen Lan also sensed his thoughts, and she also began to wreak havoc on that Stonehenge, because they didn't know if the inverted pentagram could be used as a teleportation array, and if it could, it would mean that Hell might also take the initiative to teleport demons over.
It took them a full hour to destroy the boulders and symbols in the Inverted Pentagram, and now only the huge black crystal in the center of the array remained.
Zhu Yan and Chen Lan were originally going to smash the amethyst to pieces, but when they dug the amethyst out of the pit, they changed their minds. At this time, the amethyst no longer has an evil aura, Zhu Yan uses the vitality to perceive it, although he still can't perceive its interior, although he can still slowly absorb the surrounding vitality, but it is no longer as crazy as before.
It looked no different from the natural crystals in the jade jewelry store, and it was similar to the crystal ball you had last obtained in the cave. Perhaps, amethyst is just a jade material, and it only has an evil aura because it is used in this array.
So, the two of them worked together to eradicate the symbols on each side of the black crystal one by one, of course, the appearance of these symbols was firmly remembered by Zhu Yan.
They finally decided to ship the amethyst back first. Zhu Yan even had some expectations, he remembered the crystal ball last time, it was able to be praised as a treasure by Jingjing, I wonder if this amethyst will also bring her unexpected surprises?
