Chapter 304: The Girl Who Died with Her Sword
Although Ning Ye had thought that the wooden sword given by the sword master was not ordinary, he never expected that it would be terrifying.
He knew very well how impregnable the barrier shrouded outside the forbidden land was, but in front of this sword, it was as brittle as paper.
However, now this situation is not the right time to sigh, seeing that the barrier has been broken, Ning Ye directly dodged into it, wanting to see what exists in the forbidden land of the Dongfang clan calling for him.
After entering the forbidden land, the feeling of the call in his heart became stronger and stronger, and he didn't care about the buildings in the forbidden land, Ning Ye walked directly to a certain open space, and stabbed the ground with the wooden sword in his hand.
"Click!"
The seemingly ordinary ground, when the wooden sword stabbed down, there was a crisp sound like glass shattering.
A stone staircase appeared in front of Ning Ye, leading to the ground.
From the place where he had just entered the forbidden land, he clearly felt that the call came from underground, and the sword just now broke through the powerful prohibition of the underground entrance.
Seeing the stone steps in front of him, Ning Ye couldn't help but become more and more curious, what kind of secret was hidden in the forbidden land of the Eastern Clan, and he had to hide it so cautiously.
Walking down the stone steps, I don't know how far I walked, I could already feel that the air around me was getting hotter and hotter, and it seemed that I had gone deep into the earth, but I still hadn't reached my destination.
Finally, after continuing to go down for a while, the eyes suddenly opened up.
What greeted Ning Ye's eyes was a magnificent hall full of ancient atmosphere, and the stone walls were surrounded by lighting torches, I don't know what fuel was used, and Changming has not been extinguished so far.
On the stone wall of the main hall, there are several vivid and lifelike murals carved, showing the texture of vicissitudes under the reflection of firelight.
Ning Ye, who was attracted by the mural, looked up and looked up-
"Under the gray sky, countless vicious and powerful demon beasts are raging on the earth, and countless human bones are lying on the ground, and the surviving human races are crying and wailing, a bloody and tragic scene."
This is what the first mural presents.
Even through the cold mural, Ning Ye can clearly feel the unwillingness and despair contained in the mural.
He has been in contact with the cultivation world for a period of time and knows a little bit about many historical secrets, and through this mural of demon beasts ravaging the land and feeding on the human race, all he can think of is the darkest ancient period of the human race.
The scene shown in the second mural is a dilapidated small village-
"The villagers in this small village are all ragged and skinny, their faces are lifeless, and there is not a glimmer of hope for the future in their eyes. On the road of the village, a group of demon beasts seemed to be picking 'ingredients' and taking away a group of ragged villagers to eat. And in the very center of this mural, in a dilapidated thatched house, a young man with a young face is tightly hugging the little girl in his arms with a frightened body trembling with fear, trying to give the little girl a trace of warmth......"
Although the murals are dead objects, I don't know if it was because of the skill of the carver or because of some other special reason, the murals that were originally just dead things seem to come to life, as if they are all presented in front of us from ancient times.
Regarding the scene of this small village, in ancient times, monsters were rampant, and the human race was reduced to the existence of domestic animals, and this small village should be one of the places where the human race was kept in captivity.
As for the pair of young girls in the center of the mural, although there is no mural and there is no annotation about the relationship between the two, Ning Ye has a very clear feeling that the two of them are relatives, and blood is dissolved in water.
I don't know if it was because of the tragic experience of the human race in ancient times, or because I was touched by the pair of brothers and sisters in the mural, Ning Ye, who was standing in front of the mural at this time, was very sad and lost, and his heart was as if he had been pierced by a sharp blade, and his heart was indescribably painful.
In the third mural -
A group of monster beasts armed with sharp blades surrounded the brother and sister in the second mural, their fangs open as if they were shouting at something. The young man protected his sister in his arms, and looked angrily at this group of demon beasts who wanted to take away his only relatives in the world, and there was a strange light overflowing from him, and there were several demon beast corpses with broken bodies under his feet......"
The fourth mural β
The young man stood in front of the burned hall, followed by dozens of Terrans with light overflowing from their bodies, and at the feet of all of them were mountains of demon beast corpses, as if they had just experienced an incomparably tragic battle. And the little girl from before, at this time, gradually turned into a girl, standing beside her brother, and wiped the blood from the boy's face with the brocade cloth in her hand with great distress......"
The fifth mural β
"This is a scene of a big war, on the opposite side is the army of countless demon beasts that are pressed by the black, and the human race that follows the young man has also grown from dozens of people to tens of thousands, and these human races without exception have dazzling light overflowing, and everyone roars and fights with the demon beast army to the death. And at the edge of the mural, far away from the battlefield, the sister of the girl who has become a maiden, because there is no light on her body, can not participate in this battle, can only kneel on the ground and pray to the heavens, praying that her brother can return safely and victoriously......"
Ning Ye closed her eyes.
As if he had a premonition of what was about to happen, he was a little afraid of the next mural for a while, and he didn't dare to look any further.
Now he has a clear understanding of the age and content of the first five murals.
The young man in these murals is the ancient sage who led the human race out of the darkness and into the light of today.
It is said that in the dark days of ancient times when demon beasts respected the human race as sacrifices, this ancient sage awakened the method of cultivation, and taught the people the method of cultivation that absorbed the power of heaven and earth, led thousands of human races to fight, and finally defeated the demon beasts after countless tragic battles.
"From now on, the human race will never be slaves for generations!"
This is one of the few holy words about this saint recorded in the classics, and it is also the unyielding slogan of the Terran coalition to persist in the struggle.
Regarding this ancient sage, in addition to leading the human race to defeat the powerful demon beast, another major thing he did was to slay the sky!
It is said that in ancient times, the human race was not favored by the way of heaven, and repeatedly sent heavenly punishments to destroy the human race, so the ancient sages gathered the power of the human race and cast a sword to cut the sky, intending to cut the sky and re-establish the sky!
According to the ancient classics, the saint stepped on the sky with a sword, the heaven and the earth roared, the sun and the moon had no light, and after 7749 days, the light reappeared in the world, and the saint returned from the sky.
Since then, the human race has multiplied and grown day by day, becoming the eternal protagonist of the times!
It's just that in any of the canonical records, it has never been mentioned that this ancient sage has a younger sister, and the girl who prayed to the heavens for her brother's safe return in the mural has all traces of existence erased.
Although Ning Ye had a premonition in his heart that he would see something extremely unfortunate happen next, he finally opened his eyes and looked at the next muralβ
At a glance, he was like being struck by lightning, and his heart seemed to be pierced by ten thousand swords, turning into annihilation.
"The pale and scorching fire of the sky was raging, and a long sword stood in the center of the sword furnace, and the girl who had prayed for her brother's safe return was now standing in front of the sword furnace, with tears and smiles on her face, and jumped down ......"
"Don't!"
Through the cold mural, Ning Ye, who was already in tears, stopped it in vain.
