Chapter 861: Scarlet Castle
The Scarlet Castle, this is the only place in the Eastern Region of the Ten Thousand Ancient Road that remains relatively intact, and the scope is the largest place of trial, unlike the Forest of Ten Thousand Beasts, it was originally a barren forest. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The blood-colored castle, with a radius of millions of miles, is terrifying, it is simply an endless complex of buildings, and the color of all the castles is as red as blood.
What was supposed to be a towering and majestic view of the castle is now a ruined ruin, full of decay and decadence.
On the edge of the Scarlet Castle, two righteous path cultivators, cautiously walking forward, explored the ruins.
Although the Scarlet Castle has been explored by countless people for countless years, there are very few people who can really go deep into the Scarlet Castle, and the Scarlet Castle is so big that no one dares to say that even the edge area has visited all of them.
"Click"
Suddenly, there was a muffled sound under their feet, and the two of them were horrified and hurriedly jumped up, but when they saw that what was in front of them was nothing more than a blood-colored rock cracking, the two of them breathed a long sigh of relief.
In this blood-colored castle, there is a strange atmosphere, which makes people a little creepy, and when you enter the blood-colored castle, you always feel a little scared.
"Senior brother, why don't we go back, there is a bit of an evil sect here, I always feel a cool breeze on the back of my neck, and my heart is frightened" A younger disciple said with some hesitation, obviously he didn't want to go deep into this bloody castle.
"Made, it's really a bit evil, this has just entered the periphery of the Scarlet Castle, the sun is shining, why do you feel eerie, chills all over.
Yes, I also feel a little evil here, I feel uncomfortable, let's find other places, bang luck, let's ......" The older senior brother, just after speaking, suddenly looked at the younger man, his face turned pale, and his eyes were full of fear.
"Senior brother, why are you ......," the young disciple hurriedly shouted.
"Poof"
Suddenly, a black shadow passed through his body from behind, and the young disciple was shocked, and he was just about to struggle, when suddenly the whole person withered all of a sudden, and instantly turned into a dry corpse, and he didn't even have a chance to resist.
A black phantom slowly sank into the ground, as if it had never appeared, leaving only a shriveled corpse.
The old strong man, his eyes were full of fear, and he didn't think about it, the long sword in his hand hurriedly slashed behind him, and at the same time turned around and retreated.
But his sword didn't cut anything, or rather, if it did, it was just a shadow.
The sword passed through the shadow, which had no effect at all, as if it had grown out of the ground as a tree root, and suddenly a spike stretched out and stabbed at the man.
"Poof"
The man hurriedly dodged, but he was shocked to find that his feet were firmly bound by the shadows born on the ground.
"No ......"
The man let out a terrible scream, but as soon as he made a sound, the qi and blood in his whole body instantly flowed into the shadow and was absorbed by the shadow.
It was just a breath of work, and the righteous path powerhouse was sucked into a dry corpse by the shadow, and fell to the ground with a pop, like a piece of dry wood.
When the shadow finished absorbing the man's qi and blood, it was about to return to the ground, when suddenly a light flashed, directly cutting the shadow in two.
"Poof"
In the shadow, blood flowed out and splashed all over the ground, and the shadow was cut off and disappeared from the earth, as if the roots of the tree had retracted into the ground and disappeared without a trace.
"Whew"
At this time, on the ruins of the blood-colored castle, two figures appeared, one was heroic and the other was covered with a light veil, it was Long Chen and Yue Xiaoqian.
"Xiaoqian, what do you think?" Long Chen looked at the bloodstains and dried corpses on the ground, and frowned, he had never seen this phenomenon, and along the way, they saw a lot of corpses.
"It should be the Shadow Ghost," Yue Xiaoqian said, looking at the blood stains on the ground.
Seeing Long Chen's blank face, Yue Xiaoqian explained: "Shadow Ghost is a kind of ghost clan, after a person dies, the spirit is immortal, and it forms a special life form. ”
"Is there really a ghost in this world?" Long Chen was startled, he had always thought that this was frightening.
"Your so-called ghost is just a kind of thing made up by people, and the ghost in my mouth is actually a kind of life energy.
In fact, there are many life forms in this world that we can't touch, and it stands to reason that they should be in a parallel space with us and never intersect with us.
However, in this world, there will always be strong people who like to break the routine and do something deviant.
When the dimensional wall is broken, there will be some otherworldly things flowing into this world, and the things from the other world are usually unable to survive in this world, and special conditions need to be set for them.
Just like the ghost race, it shouldn't exist in our world, but if it exists, it means that someone deliberately provided the soil for its survival.
So it's like playing with fire, introducing something that doesn't belong to this world, and if it doesn't have natural enemies in this world, it will completely destroy this world.
As soon as I arrived at this blood-colored castle, I sensed an unusual aura, and the aura here was not at all something that human cultivators could adapt to.
If my guess is correct, this blood-colored castle was originally captured by some ghosts from the other world as a trial and difficulty, to provide cultivation for disciples. Yue Xiaoqian analyzed.
Longchen nodded, what Yue Xiaoqian said was very reasonable, even if she didn't win, it shouldn't be far away, this possibility is very high.
Because the blood-colored castle collapsed, these ghosts from the other world were released here and became lawless, and they even took the initiative to kill people.
"What's the good of them killing people?" asked Dragondust.
"Human essence blood is their favorite delicacy, and although absorbing it does not make them grow, they still enjoy it. Yue Xiaoqian said.
"Aren't they ghosts, they're most afraid of the sun, how can they kill people in broad daylight?"
"Ghosts are the most fearful of the most rigid and yang things, and the sunlight is indeed what they are afraid of, but here is the blessing of the formation, which weakens the sunlight, and they are not completely exposed to the sun, so they can not be afraid.
In fact, this shadow ghost is not very powerful, as long as the soul power is a little stronger, it is easy to sense them.
Therefore, they will only look for those who are not strong in soul power, and the attack must be accompanied by soul power in order to attack their body between the virtual and the real, because the soul power is also the energy between the virtual and the real. Yue Xiaoqian said.
Longchen gave Yue Xiaoqian a thumbs up, sure enough, he was a jack of all trades, he knew everything, and with Yue Xiaoqian, Longchen felt so good.
"Hehe, thank you for the compliment" Yue Xiaoqian was still very happy about Longchen's appreciation.
Because in theory, Yue Xiaoqian is very powerful, but she has no practical experience at all, and Longchen is just the opposite, he only needs to know the theory, and he can use it in practice immediately, and the two just complement each other.
Yue Xiaoqian held the arm of the dragon dust, and the two slowly walked towards the depths of the blood-colored castle, it didn't look like a trial at all, but two couples shopping.
Sure enough, as Yue Xiaoqian said, Longchen sensed that he was being targeted by something, but that thing finally left.
Yue Xiaoqian told Longchen that the shadow ghosts were very cunning, and they were also extremely sensitive to danger, and when they felt the strength of their souls, they didn't dare to come over.
In addition, the attack of the shadow is a type of soul attack, and if it has a Horcrux protector on its body, it usually does not attack.
"It's so terrifying here, what kind of attack did it take to form this appearance" Yue Xiaoqian looked at a building in front of her and couldn't help but be shocked.
In front of me was a tall tower, broken into several knots, and the towers that fell to the ground, all as high as mountains, were horizontal in front of it, like a mountain range, and the sight was really shocking.
Below the tower, half of it was buried in the earth, and there were traces of it being crushed by the horror around it.
"Go in and have a look"
Longchen and Yue Xiaoqian drilled into the tower and found that there were cobwebs everywhere, and there were even bats flying out, which was very dark inside, but fortunately, the two of them had good eyesight and could see everything clearly.
"It's worthless, the secret rooms that should exist here have all collapsed, and the runes blessed outside have all failed.
It seems that this is not only an ordinary shattering, but also a power beyond our imagination, erasing all the power of runes. Yue Xiao Qianyu's hand lightly touched the wall, and the runes on the wall fell in torrents, like quicksand, unable to withstand any power.
Dragon Dust nodded, it should be some kind of mysterious power, specifically targeting these runes, making them invalid and disintegrate, Dragon Dust has traveled all the way, except for the magical rune that he saw at the gate of Wangu Road at the beginning, he has never seen a complete rune exposed.
"Rune, by the way, senior, do you know this rune?"
Long Chen suddenly transmitted the sound to the Eastern Wilderness Bell, and with the power of his soul, he condensed a pattern, which was the strange rune that Long Chen had memorized with the help of the Chaos Bead when he tried his best at the beginning.
"Know, but this rune is not something you can access now, let alone study it"
To the disappointment of Longchen, after Donghuang Zhong said such a sentence, he stopped talking, neither mentioning the purpose of the rune, nor its origin.
After wandering inside the tower for a while, and without any substantial gains, the two left the tower and continued on their way.
As he moved forward, the dragon dust consciousness dispersed, and a lot of hidden places had been discovered, some people were sneaking secretly, and when the dragon dust and Yue Xiaoqian held hands and walked forward slowly, many people secretly cast surprised eyes.
Longchen laughed in his heart, the more cautious you are, the more people think that you have no confidence and strength, and you will become the target of others.
The two of them didn't walk fast, they traveled for an hour, and they only traveled more than 100 miles, Longchen asked Yue Xiaoqian to lead the way, he was only responsible for following, he thought that letting Yue Xiaoqian lead the way, luck was definitely a hundred times better than him.
It has actually been proved that Longchen is right, because in the past, when Longchen entered this kind of place by himself, he was either attacked by fierce beasts or provoked by strong people, but with Yue Xiaoqian, it was very peaceful for more than an hour.
"Whew"
Just when Longchen thought that he was safe, suddenly a huge phantom behind him pounced on Longchen and Yue Xiaoqian.
