Chapter 315: Yuanqi's Clue
The first information about the Great Demon to be found by this team was provided by Chang Haotian, who explained to us in detail the legend of Yuanqi.
This Yuanqi and Venerable Rhodes are considered to be their own family, and his body is a turtle, and he was also a man of the year back then.
However, later because of his participation in the civil strife of the demon clan, he was degraded to the Dong River by the demon king at that time, and when he was in the second war of the three clans of humans and demons, he didn't even have his head out, and he sank directly into the Dong River and never appeared again.
Huang Junyao turned his head and asked the Venerable Master Rhodes, "I wonder if the Venerable Master knows about this Yuanqi." ”
Venerable Rhodes smiled, put his fist to his mouth and coughed lightly: "I have really heard of this Yuanqi somewhat, I still remember when I was born, my father was still there, he once said that he had a close friend named Yuanqi, this person is better to say, only a little more greedy for alcohol, because greedy for alcohol mistook many things." ”
Venerable Rhodes was interested in watching us all staring at him with great interest, listening carefully to his explanations of the events of that year.
He drank the tea in the cup, and then said: "When the demon clan was in civil strife, the demon king Hanzang at that time sent him to guard Yashan, but he was sent by Zichen to capture Yashan because of greed for cups. During the demon war, there were also people who wanted to release Yuanqi, but what imprisoned Yuanqi was the Demon Suppression Array from ancient times, and now no one knows how to crack this formation. ”
was suppressed by the formation and no one cracked it, then we can't let him go if we find it, no, we don't need to let him go, we just need to know the location of the extremely cold place from his mouth.
Okay, let's go and break through this Dong River's Demon Formation together.
The Dong River is the southern part of China according to the current place name, and now it is not called the Dong River but renamed the Cangshui River, and it has long become a tributary of a large river, and the river is not abundant.
We took out our magic weapons and searched for the location of the formation map, and crossed mountains and mountains along the way, and finally found the trace of the formation map downstream of a small tributary of the Cangshui River.
We walked into a stone cave in the middle of the mountain according to the location shown by the ritual weapon.
The cave was dark and damp, and from time to time there were insects and rats scurrying around.
This time, only Qiu, Master Rhodes and Huang Junyao came to look for people, and the four of us brought more than a dozen demon cultivators. The others were on standby in Kunlun first.
The task of coming to find Yuanqi this time is not difficult, and the designated location can be found as long as it is found.
After entering the cave, we finally stood in front of a stone wall obscured by fluffy grass, and behind this stone wall was supposed to be a passage to the depths of the earth that suppressed the Yuanqi.
However, how to crack this stone wall, it can't be broken directly with brute force, otherwise it will not attract the attention of human beings.
Qiu stood in front of the stone wall and looked at it for a long time, then stood in the distance and looked at it for a while, and then walked to the stone wall again, and saw him lightly tapping in a place in the middle of the stone wall, and after a while, he heard a clicking sound, and everyone turned their heads to look around, only to see that a circular platform hanging in the air was actually leaning out of a dark crack on the right side of the stone wall.
Qiu had already stopped at this time, beckoned everyone and said: "This platform can only accommodate seven people, we have a total of thirteen or thirteen, and the remaining few people will stay here for now." ”
Huang Junyao saw that this platform really couldn't accommodate everyone, so he arranged for six people to stay in the cave, and the others jumped onto the platform.
Once everyone stood firm, they felt the platform begin to move.
Venerable Rhodes said, "It seems that there is still a way to go if you want to enter the Demon Suppression Array that suppresses Yuanqi. ”
But it didn't come according to the words of Master Rhodes. We don't know how long we sat on this slow platform, it just moved slowly forward in the dark, we had to be careful to stay on the platform for fear that the movement would make this platform skewed, except for the darkness around this platform, everything was silent.
I muttered in my heart, it would be better if there was a little movement, but I was afraid that this situation of darkness and silence would make your heart hairy, and you didn't know what was going to happen in front of you, what would appear.
Finally, when the speed of this platform was getting slower and slower, several of us cheered up, and it seemed that we were about to reach our destination.
Finally, the platform slowly stopped, and I saw that there was another platform in front of the platform, but there was a teleportation formation glowing on it.
Huang Junyao saw that everyone was a little hesitant, he took the initiative to step up and step on the platform, and I saw that he followed him in the past and stepped one step behind him.
I felt dizzy in front of my eyes when I stepped into the formation, I was already standing in an underground stone room, Huang Junyao, who came in before, saw me come in and hurriedly pulled me over, took me out of the entrance, and stood aside, when the two of us were looking around at this stone room in surprise, the rest of the people also followed in one after another.
As soon as Venerable Rhodes entered the stone chamber, he let out a sigh of surprise.
We all looked around at this stone chamber, which was more than ten meters high.
It was as if the whole thing had been hollowed out, there was not a single crack around it, and at the entrance was the teleportation array that glowed with a ghostly light, and a bright lamp hung in the air on the top of the stone chamber.
The flame of the lamp was only an inch, but the whole stone room was illuminated, and several of us looked at each other, not knowing what to do, there was not even a hint here, how should we continue to go down.
At this time, the Venerable Master had to see that he had seen a lot of things, and he saw that he kept looking up at the lamp and observing, and kept saying in his mouth: "This lamp is strange. ”
Huang Junyao and I also carefully observed this lamp, and if we don't observe the lamp, there is nothing else to observe, and the lamp hanging in the air in the empty stone room is eye-catching.
Venerable Rhodes circled the lamp twice below before turning to us and saying, "Look at the ground. ”
Then we looked down at the ground under our feet, and found that there was a shadow on the ground, which was as bright as day.
I looked closely and felt that it was not the shadow of the lamp, so I asked Venerable Rhodes, "What is this?" Could it be that the key to leaving this stone chamber lies in this shadow? ”
Venerable Rhodes told us to move the shadows out of the way, and then pointed to the shadow and said, "Look at it, this image is not like an eagle with wings ready to fly. ”
We all looked around and took a closer look, and it was really like what Master Rhodes had said, and this dark shadow really looked like an eagle. We all looked up at Venerable Rhodes, behind the Elephant Eagle.
Venerable Rhodes smiled slightly, and he pointed to the place where the eagle's head was heading: "Look there. ”
We continued to turn our heads to look at the place where the eagle's head was heading.
In the light of the light, there are faint rays of light that seem to swim.
The Venerable Rhodes stepped forward and gently wrapped his hands in those rays of light, and saw an invisible chain that flashed with brilliance being held by the Venerable Rhodes.
He tugged on the chain, and heard one of the walls of the stone chamber rumble backwards.
There are two passages, one left and one right.
After the Venerable Lord lowered the chain, the stone wall began to slowly close, and several of us flew to the passage in a hurry, and each of the seven of us chose a passage and ran out.
There was only a click, and the stone wall was closed again.
Huang Junyao and I walked through the passage on the left, followed only by two demon cultivators who we didn't know before.
I only remember that one of them was named Yang Shan and the other was called Qingyan.
The two of them also stopped behind us, and when they saw us looking at the passage with a faint glimmer of light, they hurriedly followed and asked, "What can I do about this?" We're in two places, and we don't know where it leads. ”
Huang Junyao stretched out his hand to signal them to silence, and he listened attentively.
Sure enough, when I was quiet, I heard a faint voice of someone talking, and as soon as I heard it, I knew that it was the voice of Master Rhodes, and it seemed that we were not far away.
Maybe it's the same path.
The shimmering passage meandered to no avail, and we walked cautiously along it, about half an hour or so, until we finally reached the end of the passage.
It's still a floating platform.
The four of us stepped onto the platform and let it float slowly forward with us.
At this time, we saw a platform floating not far away, and Venerable Rhodes, Fen, and another demon cultivator Zhu Dong were standing on it.
They also saw us raise their arms and said, "It seems that we are going to one place." ”
The two platforms walked side by side, and soon led us into a void again, and I whispered to Huang Junyao, "I feel that this platform is going down." ”
Huang Junyao also nodded, it seems that we are walking under the Dong River.
Finally the platform led us through a door of light, and we began to see that the top of us began to brighten up, like a crystal palace, and we could see many strange-looking fish through the transparent barrier in the palace.
The two platforms were now one after the other, and we looked up at the fish swimming above and sighed that this was like an underwater passage to the human world.
Venerable Rhodes had been staring nervously ahead, and I smiled and said to him, "There is a rare view from above, why do you only stare at the front and not enjoy the beautiful scenery?" ”
Venerable Rhodes ignored my question with a serious face, and only exclaimed in surprise after a long time: "You guys are standing firm, something is coming in front of you." ”
We were all taken aback when we heard Master Rhodes shout like this, and hurriedly used a spell to stick ourselves tightly to the platform.
At this moment, a huge black light and shadow in front of us swam towards us, bluffing us into all our own magic weapons and weapons.
The platform didn't stop, it continued to float towards the black shadow at a slow pace, all of us were nervous, not knowing what was about to happen ahead, the black shadow was still shaking, and it looked even more terrifying under the shimmer of light.
At this time, Venerable Rhodes shouted again, "Each sacrifice also protects the magic circle." ”
