Chapter 339: Secret
Along with it, the pattern circle on the ground under the Thousand Pupil Python suddenly released a dazzling fire-colored light, enveloping the Thousand Pupil Python with more than a thousand eyes.
The Thousand Pupils Python suddenly became frightened, more than a thousand eyes condensed almost at the same time, it felt as if it was about to be drowned in the mysterious fire-colored light, it instinctively wanted to escape, but its huge body of 100 meters long could not escape the light of the magic circle in this tunnel.
"Words and Spirits Demon Dao-" Zhang Liang's eyes emitted more and more fireflies, and his sealed hands also trembled in the surge of invisible power, he suddenly untied his handprint, reached out and grabbed the ancient book of words and spirits suspended in the void, and opened the 325th page of the ancient book with a casual flip, and slammed it out and pressed it to the ground, and then used a mysterious and ethereal voice to make a final finish" - erosion circle! β
In an instant, the magic circle under the Thousand Pupil Python seemed to come to life, and the invisible power surged up from the entire magic circle, and the fire-colored light rose like a purgatory flame, eroding the huge body of the Thousand Pupil Python that was 100 meters long. Countless words and spiritual words emerged from the fireflies, flying from the body of the Thousand Pupil Python Zhou with mysterious magic, dissolving the powerful power contained in the Thousand Pupil Python's body, and constantly weakening its body.
In the blockade of the erosion circle, the Thousand Pupils Python let out a nightmarish scream, penetrating the entire tunnel, swirling in everyone's ears, in the submergence and burning of the fire-colored light, the Thousand Pupils Python flashed a thousand pupils, instinctively wanted to find the enemy attacking it, stared at him, and used the death resentment of the thousand pupils to dissolve the terrifying damage caused by the enemy's attack to it. However, it couldn't find itβit scanned the tunnel with more than a thousand eyes open, and it didn't find any enemies attacking it!
Because, the person who cast the spell to attack it, Zhang Liang, was under the cover of Hua Mulan and the unknown person's body, but the Thousand Pupil Python had a thousand eyes, and it was impossible to penetrate the body of Hua Mulan and the unknown person to stare at Zhang Liang!
The Thousand Pupils Python's ability could not be used, so it could only be trapped in the energy erosion of the erosion circle, unable to escape, nor able to save itself. Demonic words and words continued to fly, and the glow of hellfire burned in bursts, and the penetrating and continuous magic damage eroded the huge and hard body of the Thousand Pupil Python from the inside out.
The huge body of the Thousand Pupil Python gradually weakened and fell to the ground, and its whole body was flooded with firefly light, and it screamed in a deep voice, and more than a thousand eyes revealed the hideous face of death again. Until this huge body finally couldn't hold on anymore, the Thousand Pupils Python fell to the ground entirely, and the eyes of the whole body were opened to the limit, but they were no longer able to stare.
The words and words that eroded the magic circle gradually disappeared, the glow of the fireflies slowly dimmed, and the invisible power floating in the magic circle began to flow back. After the circle disappeared, the tunnel immediately fell into heavy darkness again, Zhang Liang opened the ancient book again, and the fire-colored light gathered and gushed out, illuminating this dead and deep tunnel.
Under the illumination of the light, everyone vaguely saw that the huge demon beast had completely collapsed to the ground, and more than a thousand eyes were hideous with the luster of death, but the huge body was still trembling from time to time.
"Not dead yet...... A hundred-legged insect that dies but does not stiffen. This huge demon beast has a very tenacious vitality. Zhang Liang looked at the half-dead thousand-pupil python that was trembling on the ground, and said, "However, it can't stop us from moving forward anymore." β
The man with the dragon mask was silent, but after handing back the magic dragon crystal in his hand to Zhang Liang, he walked forward quietly. After the catastrophe passed, he immediately drew a line with Zhang Liang and Hua Mulan, and walked to the tunnel alone Zhang Liang and Hua Mulan glanced at the unknown person, and did not say anything, they all understood that the cooperation just now was just to solve the common problem, and now that the Thousand Pupils Python had collapsed to the ground, there was naturally no need for them to stand together anymore. After all, no one can easily trust people when they are outside.
So Zhang Liang just quietly glanced at the back of the unknown person, and then moved the light released by the ancient book forward, illuminating the way ahead of the unknown person. Of course, the unknown person noticed the subtle change in the light, but his eyes only flashed, and without hesitation, he still walked forward quietly.
The gray-haired wolf crouched beside him and called lazily twice, Zhang Liang and Hua Mulan no longer stagnated, and walked towards the depths of the tunnel with the gray-haired wolf. The tunnel is deep and sloping downward, and the further down it goes, the more winding it becomes, but fortunately, the tunnel itself is wide and illuminated by the light of ancient books, so it is not difficult to walk.
The unknown man in the dragon mask walked along the tunnel again, and went straight to the end of the tunnel. At the end of the tunnel was a large opening, with a faint red glow. The unknown man hesitated at the entrance of the cave for a moment, then slowed down and dived in silently.
Zhang Liang Hua Mulan and the gray-haired Kui Wolf also came to the entrance of the cave later, they were naturally very cautious, and did not enter rashly, but Zhang Liang first closed his eyes and spread his soul perception to detect whether there were enemies hidden in the cave.
"Let's go...... The people inside have been subdued by him," Zhang Liang opened his eyes and said after a moment. So the two wolves entered the cave.
Inside the cave, there is a huge and dim soil space, like a huge mausoleum thousands of meters deep in the ground, but this tomb does not contain a coffin of mysterious legends, nor does it make the tomb robbers want to make the tomb robbers want to find a peerless treasure, some are just a piece of darkness that is not visible at a glance, and under the darkness, is an equally dark and dead giant "However, now the thousand pupils python outside has been seriously injured on the ground, and our sneaking here will be exposed sooner or later. The rest is only how much information we can gain here......" Quietly contemplating in his heart, Zhang Liang had already walked to the side of the unknown person. At this time, Zhang Liang found that in front of the place where the unknown person was standing, there was a huge pit, and the eyes of the unknown person were quietly staring at the vast scene in the pit.
In the pit, there was not dead darkness, but a golden-red liquid that emitted red light, like a golden sea of fire. The golden-red liquid was so mysterious and strange that at a glance, it made people feel that it was full of the heat of the molten world, but when you felt it calmly, you found that there was not the slightest heat wave rising in the pit, and the air around it was still dry and cold.
But looking at the golden-red liquid makes people feel like the whole person is ignited by the gaze, and then the whole body is burned red, and then turned to ashes. That's it, that pool of golden-red liquid has a certain magical power, firmly attracting people's attention. Then they will see that the brilliant flame lotus flowers bloom on the surface of the golden-red liquid, which is amazing and beautiful!
Staring at this pool of mysterious golden-red liquid, the unknown person was a little distracted, and Zhang Liang was shocked by the deep sinking of his pupils, because when his eyes touched the pool of golden-red liquid, his soul perception also followed, that is, the touch of that powerful perception, which made Zhang Liang feel a sense of shock that the heavens and the earth were shaken. "Whew! Oh! The frightened cry of the gray-haired wolf came, and immediately woke up the unknown person who had lost his mind, Zhang Liang.
After Hua Mulan and the gray-haired Kui Wolf entered the cave, they did not come over together, but looked around at random, but during the random inspection, the sensitive gray-haired Kui Wolf let out a terrifying howl at a large mass of pitch-black things in the dim environment, which shocked Mulan's gaze, and the unknown person and Zhang Liang also quickly looked over.
Zhang Liang subconsciously shone the light of the ancient book in the direction of the gray-haired wolf, and everyone immediately saw that in front of the gray-haired wolf, there was a five-foot-long iron cart, and the cart was full of white skulls with crimson blood stains!
Seeing this scene, everyone's eyes were immediately shocked, and the previous confusion was instantly solved - in this underground seven-layer space, why are the entire six floors above the space full of corpse pits? And how did so many headless corpses in those pits come about? Where are their lost heads? The look of shock evolved in her eyes, and Hua Mulan instantly raised her eyebrows angrily, looked at the two ironclad guards who were trembling on the ground, and said sharply, "Where did these skulls come from?" β
"We don't know either...... The other soldiers had brought them down from above, and told us to push them here......" said one of the two soldiers, as he lay on his stomach tightly. Their whole bodies trembled, they had already seen these three people kill the shocking power of such a terrifying thousand-pupil python just now, and they didn't dare to play tricks in front of these three people, for fear of being killed by them casually.
"Who is it? Who ordered you to bring the skulls here? β
"Bian Que! It's Lord Bian Que, Lord Bian Que has always been the steward here, but he has recently left the ......"
"What did he order you to bring your skulls for?"
"We don't know β he just told us to pour all the skulls into this big pool, and we don't know, we really don't know."
The Iron Guard's voice trembled over and over again, almost crying, but Mulan's anger also rose in her heart over and over again, and her hand held her tightly and held back.
"How long did it take? How many times have you been shipped? β
"It's been three years...... Shipped every day! Shipped every day! Sometimes it's good luck several times a day......"
Astound...... The expressions of everyone present were shocked again, and they were shocked to the edge of unimaginable, although they had already guessed the general situation of the matter when they saw the car of skulls, but when they really heard the truth of the matter, they still couldn't help but be shocked!
A cart of skulls is hundreds! Three years - that's a thousand days! Every day, the skulls are transported here and poured into the big pool, every day - so how did the millions of headless corpses that accumulated in the countless burial pits on the six floors above the top come to be, and where did their lost heads go!
The truth in the world is always miserable. "What is this pool for?" Hua Mulan suppressed the murderous aura and anger that almost burst out in her heart, and asked again. The gaze of the unknown person hidden under the mask was also unnaturally condensed deeply, and the breath of the whole person sank terrifyingly.
"I don't know...... We really don't know...... We are just ordinary soldiers who are ordered to act, please let us go...... heroes" The two ironclad guards lay on the ground and kowtowed their heads heavily and begged for mercy, of course they knew that they had done something unforgivable, but they couldn't help it, how dare they disobey the orders of their superiors, they also knew that the cycle of heavenly principles would eventually be retributed, but they were still afraid of death.
And Mulan's eyes flashed with murderous aura, and she wanted to slash with a sword, but she had no choice but to pity the helplessness of these two soldiers.
"Black Ground...... Skull...... Million lives...... Thousand Pupil Python ...... Ancient Magic Path ...... Golden Red Devil Pool ...... "At this moment, Zhang Liang suddenly repeated those fragmentary keywords in a deep voice, and the whole person seemed to have lost his mind.
All eyes were on him. "Black Ground...... Skull...... Million lives...... Thousand Pupil Python ...... Ancient Magic Path ...... Golden Red Devil Pool ......" Zhang Liang repeated these words over and over again, his face was faintly more and more shocked, and sweat seemed to be running down his forehead. A look of shock brewed on Zhang Liang's face a little bit, his eyes were deep, and suddenly a cold light flashed under his eyes, accompanied by that terrifying answer rushing out of his heart.
"I see...... This...... This is Ling Chi! Zhang Liang's eyes were deep, and he stretched out a hand and pointed to the large pool overflowing with golden-red liquid.
"Liangliang, what did you say? What Ling Chi, do you know this pool? Seeing that Zhang Liang's expression had changed greatly, Mulan suddenly asked a little nervously. Wrong, we are all wrong......" but Zhang Liang did not respond, as if the whole person was immersed in his own self-talk.
"It's all fake...... Afang Palace is a fake! The war in the country is fake, and the whole of Qin and Chu is fake...... For Ying Zheng, all this is fake, everything is not important - only Ling Chi is important! Zhang Liang stared at his pupils and said in shock, "Everything is a cover-up, only Ling Chi is the real purpose of Yingzheng!" β
"Good! What the hell is wrong with you? What exactly do you mean by that? Mulan looked at Zhang Liang nervously and asked again.
"Let's go! Get back! We must immediately rush back to the kings of Chu and Han...... Ying Zheng's purpose is much more terrifying than we imagined, and he has already planned this game of chess! β
"What chess? What purpose? You make it clear, what the hell is going on? β
Zhang Liang was silent for a moment, looked at Hua Mulan and said slowly: "Ling Chi! This huge pool is Ling Chi! It is a liquid circle that breeds the forbidden reincarnation day of the forbidden magic in the ancient magic magic path! Zhang Liang suddenly turned his head, looked at the mysterious pool of golden red with a deep gaze, and said slowly, "Ying Zheng wants to awaken the legendary ancient ruins sleeping in the black land-
From the branches to the leaves, every tree in the forest was as black as death, and the swift hunting wind blew through the forest, as if it were about to be dyed the same black by the trees. And the gray-haired wolf followed the whistling black hunting wind, with solemn expressions of men and women, running fast in the black forest.
When Zhang Liang and Hua Mulan came out of the formation of Afang Palace, it was already noon on the second day, and the bright sunlight was shining through the gaps in the leaves, dotting the black forest with dazzling light spots.
And Zhang Liang and Hua Mulan did not hesitate, and after quietly sneaking out of the guards on the periphery of Afang Palace, they rode on the gray-haired wolf, and quickly ran along the road they came, rushing back to Lingcheng. Yes, when Zhang Liang discovered the secret of Afang Palace, Ling Chi, which was hidden thousands of kilometers deep, he made a decision without any hesitation, and went back immediately, rushing back as fast as possible!
They were wrong from the beginning, from the moment they thought they had discovered the truth about the inner kingdom and uncovered the true face of the tyrant of Yingzheng. Whether it was Liu Bang or Xiang Yu, when they thought that they had seen the situation of Qin Chu clearly and decided to mobilize all their forces to storm the storm in the autumn of the survival of a great country, they actually didn't know that they had fallen into the situation that Yingzheng had already set up.
