Chapter 63: Signs

There are so many terrifying things in just one sinkhole, but Zhang Tianxing's message said that the sinkhole is just the tip of the iceberg of Yeling, and Zhang Juming also mentioned the horror of Yeling in his letter, so many people who have something to do with Yeling say that Yeling is terrifying, which shows the weirdness and mystery of Yeling.

In any case, the most important thing at the moment is how to get the Underworld Fetus, only by suppressing the curse can I have a chance to get out, otherwise I won't even have the qualifications to retreat.

Zhang Tianxing said that he left a mark on the Hell Tree, and as long as he found the mark, he could find the Hell Fetus, didn't this mean that I had to climb to this Hell Tree full of corpses to find the mark left by Zhang Tianxing?

I glanced at the branches of the giant tree beside me, and saw that the branches that stretched out were no different from ordinary dry branches, most of the branches and trunks did not have the blue wax paper, and only the places where the corpse cocoons had fallen were abundantly waxy. I took a closer look at the nearest corpse cocoon, and saw that there was a fibrous root hanging from the top of the corpse cocoon, like a fruit pedicle hanging from a fruit, and there was a lot of solidified blue wax where the fibrous root was connected to the corpse cocoon, as if these wax cocoons that wrapped the corpse were secreted by these fruit-like fibrous roots.

My heart tightened, this situation reminded me of the situation in my dream, I remember that when I was hung upside down by the tentacles like the roots, it was the tentacles that kept flowing wax and slowly wrapped me a little bit, how similar that situation was to the reality in front of me.

I was a little embarrassed to think that the mark might be on the Hell Tree in the center, it was very easy for such a large tree to get up from the edge of the stone path, the key was that I was very resistant to the corpse cocoon on the tree, and I always reverberated in my mind the scene when I saw the corpse cocoon resurrected in my childhood, and I was always a little jealous in my heart.

After looking at it for a while, I decided to go down first, maybe Zhang Tianxing's mark also leads from top to bottom to the Tiankeng. If I really have to go to the tree to find the dead fetus, then there is no way to do it, the big deal is to climb it again when the time comes, and now I want to climb to a tree full of corpse cocoons, I absolutely don't want to.

However, to my surprise, the stone path that I thought would lead all the way to the top of the sinkhole came to an abrupt end when I continued to walk down more than ten meters, and there was no way down.

Now I was dumbfounded, looking at the blue and black stone wall in front of the stone road at a loss, obviously, the project of digging the stone road stopped for some reason, and the back part did not have time to excavate, so it was so abruptly broken here.

How can I go down without a stone path?

I was speechless for a while, this is too tricky, even if you don't chisel through, you should give a warning hint in the upper place, now it's okay, there are just no branches extending from the broken stone road, even if you want to climb the tree now, there is no way.

I looked backwards and tried to take a step back, the curse and grimace on my arm resting at the same time. I sighed, knowing that this was over, and that I was at a dead end again.

Just as I was looking at the stone wall in front of me at a loss, I inadvertently glanced down, and I was stunned for a moment.

I rubbed my eyes, poked my head out and looked down, and suddenly I felt happy that there was a door. I couldn't see it very clearly, but I did see it, just below, at the limit of my vision, and I saw a blue of ice crystals, very blurry, and if I had gone up two or three meters, I would have not been able to see it.

The wrinkled blue reminded me of the ground I had stepped on when I first entered Yeling, it was not a dirt and stone floor, but a large amount of blue wax, like the waxy earth formed by the wax oil from the burning of candles filling the bottom of the sinkhole.

I knew it was the bottom of the sinkhole, because I had seen it face to face at the base of the wax tree, and I would never forget what I saw. Judging by the limits of my vision, it was at least thirty meters or so below.

Although it is only thirty meters, it is still a big problem to go down, and at the moment I am trapped in the same place, I can only go down, not up, but there is no way down, and I will face a curse in the future. When I looked down just now, I found a branch with a lot of branches about five meters below me, that part of the branches was very dense, and the main trunk of the branch was almost more than a meter thick, I jumped from here, if the posture was right, the dense branches should be able to hold me down.

After a long struggle, I thought that this method should be feasible, but in case these branches were old and looked thick, they were not as strong as I thought, or the branches were too strong, or even very hard, and I smashed them with my flesh and blood, either to fall to death, or to die by sticking to the branches, no matter how I died, it was not a good ending, and I began to regret that I didn't have some rope left for backup last night.

Standing on the stone path for a long time, I still couldn't make up my mind, and as time slowly passed, I gradually felt the curse on my arm slowly begin to stir, as if it had adapted to the suppression of it by this position. I was shocked, I thought that as long as I didn't curse in the future, I couldn't do anything, but I didn't expect this curse to be so powerful, it can adapt to the environment by itself without moving, I damn it, doesn't this mean that even if I get to the bottom of the sinkhole, if I can't find the underworld in a limited time, this curse will still completely erupt, and I will still die?

, isn't this a cheat!

I knew I couldn't hesitate any longer, looking at the branches below, gritting my teeth, and just about to jump, the corner of my eye suddenly swept to the side wall of the stone path, that is, the sinkhole wall in front of me, there was a very familiar mark on it.

I almost jumped out of the hurry to stop my body, carefully grabbed the stone wall and stretched out my head to look, and found that the stone wall was carved with a grimace, very familiar, I took a closer look, isn't this the Rakshasa grimace on my arm? I suddenly felt my heart beat faster, Zhang Tianxing said that he left a mark, did he mean this, but didn't he say that the mark was left on the Hell Tree?

I couldn't care about it at this time, and I found that although the mark was somewhat similar to the Rakshasa grimace on my hand, it was not, but a face that looked even more weird, although it was a stone carving, but when I looked at it, I always felt that the soul was being sucked in. I was busy looking away, but when I moved my gaze, I saw the same grimace parallel to my feet.

It's really a mark!
