Volume 3: The Storm Rises Chapter 573: Heavenly Gate Pass
In this world, there are often people who die, but it also responds to the old saying, people are inherently dead, or heavier than Mount Tai, or lighter than a feather. Lu Yao didn't know what kind of definition the death of the Tongyun Temple Lord He Ben and Sai Qinghua was for the Heavenly Tower, but for him, it was lighter than a feather.
After Lu Yao and Youlan killed the two, they didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly chased forward, Youlan was worried about Huo Tingting's safety, and Lu Yao was even more curious about what was going on with the loud noise just now.
Entering this place before, it was almost like a huge tomb as far as the eye could see, but as he continued to go deeper, a huge Yongdao appeared in front of him, which was about ten meters high, three or four meters wide, and the four walls were all black-brown hard rocks, Lu Yao gently touched the stone wall with his fingers, and it was extremely cold to start, and he couldn't tell whether this was artificially excavated or innately formed, and it became like this after years of erosion.
The deeper you go, the quieter the wind fades, but the chill grows worse to the bone. A cold wind that seemed to be blowing from hell made Youlan shiver, Lu Yao saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help but take out a piece of his thick clothes from the golden ring space and hand it to Youlan. Youlan smiled at Lu Yao for the first time and draped her clothes on her body.
Although the two were worried about Huo Tingting's safety, they deliberately slowed down after entering the corridor, this place is not as bright as the previous tomb, and even other places are a little dim, the two of them know that it is not a mediocre hand to be able to go deep here, if someone deliberately sets up an ambush here, they will not lose the opportunity and be taken advantage of by the other party.
After walking like this for about half a stick of incense, there was a pungent smell of blood in front again, and the two of them were nervous, careful and vigilant, although Lu Yao knew that Youlan's actual age definitely did not match her appearance, but she still took the initiative to go to the front and play the role of a shield.
As the smell of blood became stronger and stronger, the two saw more than a dozen corpses lying on the ground, the blood was still steaming with a slight heat, and the blood that had not yet coagulated was gurgling out along the terrifying wound, and it was also because of the blood that continued to flow forward, Lu Yao noticed some strange textures on the ground.
Although it was clear what shape those textures were outlined, it was very terrifying because of the blood at this time. Lu Yao also couldn't help but shudder in his heart.
"These people seem to have fought fiercely, but in fact, they are not, you can see the fatal wounds on their bodies." Youlan slowly approached the corpses and glanced at them, pointed to the two corpses with the worst deaths, and said, "If my guess is correct, they all died under an extremely vicious secret weapon, and then they were torn apart by some kind of fierce beast to become like this." ”
Hearing this, Lu Yao slowly squatted down and turned over one of the corpses, and sure enough, he saw another very small pinhole in the center of his eyebrows, like the traces left by his silver needle-like hidden weapon.
A shot killed, and then some kind of beast tore the corpse, causing such a situation like purgatory on earth, Lu Yao's mind also seemed to have the scene of these people when they died, and a vague black shadow flashed in front of him, it was he who shot and killed everyone.
However, what Lu Yao is most concerned about at this time is that as a master of hidden weapons, why hasn't he discovered these small clues for a long time, but he was discovered by Youlan first, could it be that Youlan is not only terrifying in strength, but also a master of hidden weapons?
Lu Yao subconsciously widened the distance between herself and Youlan, lest she suddenly make a move, and she didn't know how she died.
The identity of these deceased people is unknown, Lu Yao looked at these seven or eight corpses and suddenly felt a burst of sadness, obviously, they can enter here are all people with good strength, if they are all famous people in the world, but now, for the so-called mysterious treasure, not only are their heads in different places, but they don't even have a person to collect the corpses when they die, is this the doomed fate of immortal cultivators?
After all, Lu Yao still had the kind thoughts in his heart, took out a fire box from the golden ring space, urged the fire attribute immortal qi to ignite it, and threw it on those corpses, causing them to burn all these corpses.
This process was indeed a waste of some of Lu Yao's immortal power, but I don't know why, after doing all this, Lu Yao felt another indescribable sense of relief in his heart, as if he had done a great deed of immeasurable merit.
After disposing of the corpse, the two continued to move forward, this time, there was no movement in the corridor, the two walked for about a pillar of incense, the light in front of them suddenly brightened, as if they were irradiated by the sun, the two of them subconsciously raised their hands at the same time to block it, but even so, there were no less than 30 people standing in front of them at this time, among which Huo Tingting was also impressively listed.
It's just that the situation of these people doesn't look very good, or they have a broken arm or a broken leg, and Huo Tingting also has blood stains oozing from the corners of her mouth, and her face is a little pale.
The first time Youlan saw Huo Tingting, she rushed over and stood side by side with her, and Lu Yao also walked over, although it was to speak, the two still read some things through eye contact.
At this time, except for Lu Yao, Huo Tingting and Youlan, everyone else was engrossed in looking at the two huge and somewhat exaggerated stone doors in front of them, and no one cared if there were two more or two less people here.
From the expressions and eyes of these people, Lu Yao caught a fanatical look, just like a greedy person who saw a mountain of gold, wishing that both eyeballs would fall into the mountain.
At the same time, Lu Yao also saw two familiar figures in this group of people, one was Lan Jing, who had fought side by side with him, at this time, Lan Jing was standing next to an old man with silver hair and a seven-point resemblance to him, and the other was Tan Tao, who had been protecting the Dharma for himself and forcibly opened up his second line of governor.
It's just strange that at this time, the eyes of the two of them also have the same fanaticism as everyone else, and even Lu Yao's arrival didn't make them distracted.
"These two divisional doors not only block everyone's way, but they are also quite strange." Huo Tingting leaned into Lu Yao's ear and whispered: "There are a few masters of the Distraction Realm here, they tried to forcibly open the stone gate, but unexpectedly, all the strength of the stone gate rebounded, and those few people also suffered a lot of backlash. ”
Huo Tingting pointed to several directions in the crowd, including the old man beside Lan Jing who was seven points similar to him.
"I see, no wonder they stopped fighting at this time, presumably the loud noise before was the movement they forcibly wanted to break open the stone door!" Lu Yao finally understood, why the crowd that had been fighting all the way was so quiet at this time, it turned out that they had encountered a problem that could not be solved by a certain person or a certain force group alone, and everyone coincidentally chose a truce and worked together to find a way to open the stone gate.
"Lan Lao, this is the highest prestige and strength for you, why don't you tell everyone what kind of method we should use to open this strange stone door?" At the front of the crowd stood an old man about the same age as Lan Tianye, his fingers gently stroked his beard, and he said with a chuckle.
"Old man Shui, you also saw it just now, this stone door is quite strange, it is not something that we can forcibly open at all, in my opinion, it will definitely not work, rather than me blindly commanding here, it is better for everyone to work together and think about what better way, what do you say?" Lan Tianye knew what the other party was thinking, and he solved the other party's problem with a few words.
“……”
Lu Yao listened to these so-called seniors put down their heads for the time being, and you and I discussed how to break through the huge stone door in front of me, and suddenly remembered the words that I heard several times in my heart.
"Outside the Gate of Heaven, in front of the Five Elements Bridge, the Hades Tower."
"Could it be that this is the so-called Tianmen Pass?" Lu Yao whispered.
Originally, he said this to Huo Tingting, after all, Huo Tingting had also mentioned this in front of him, but although his voice was small, he was still heard by everyone.
"Oh?" Lan Tianye and Old Man Shui looked back at Lu Yao behind the crowd at the same time, Lan Tianye chuckled and asked, "Little brother, do you know how particular this stone gate is?" ”
At this time, Lu Yao had already figured it out, thinking that this so-called Lan Lao was Lan Jing's elder, Lan Jing also looked at him when Lan Tianye looked at him, but the strange thing was that when Lan Jing looked at Lu Yao, there was no strange emotion in his eyes, no joy or sorrow, as if the two had never known each other.
"I'm just talking nonsense!" Lu Yao secretly guessed in his heart that he knew this, and Lan Tianye and that Shui Lao should also know, but now they pretended to know nothing, there must be something boring, so they waved their hands again and again, pushed and dragged and said.
"Nonsense?" Shui Lao obviously didn't believe Lu Yao's words, and asked coldly, "Which force are you from?" ”
"There is no sect, no faction, and it is not a person from any side, just curious to follow and take a look!" Lu Yao didn't like the tone of this old man's speech, and he replied coldly.
Actually, Lu Yao didn't have a good impression of this Shui Lao at all, others didn't know, but he had vaguely guessed something, this Lan Tianye and Shui Lao must be the culprits who calculated his father Lu Jingyun at the beginning, especially Shui Lao, according to the past that Lu Jingyun told him, it should be his mother Shui Tassel's elder who has never met, that is, his grandfather's family.
For the forces of these two hidden families, Lu Yao had no awe in his heart, some just hated, although it was not to the extreme, but at least it was hateful.
"You ......"
"Okay, okay, it's not worth getting angry with a child when you're old."
Seeing that Lu Yao was so unkind, Shui Lao wanted to teach a lesson, but as soon as he spoke, his figure took a big step forward, but he didn't expect to be pulled by Lan Tianye beside him, and said: "It is imperative that everyone find a way to open this strange stone gate together, instead of everyone spending it here!" ”
