Chapter 282: Ruins or Battlefield?
Of course, Tianyou couldn't guess what would be in the secret room, because the scene inside was really beyond imagination. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The moment the door opened, the stench was not poisonous, but it was almost the same. It was a strange gas formed after the bones decomposed and sealed in the cave for an unknown number of years, because in this secret room, there were dead corpses all over the ground, and the number was at least hundreds. Looking at the death of those corpses, it seems that they were killed by each other, and the corpses are not all human, and there are obviously other races among them.
"Is this a demon clan?" The corpse, which had been completely dried up, was in a mummy-like state, not white bones, but it couldn't scare Tianyou. In addition to the shock when he opened the door, Tianyou quickly adapted to the environment and strode in to search.
Moon Shadow looked at a skeleton at Tianyou's feet and shook his head: "It's not a demon. After the demon clan dies, it will appear in its original form, and the skeleton should be the appearance of the main body, at most, the size will change a little because of the transfiguration, but it is impossible to become a human form. ”
Tianyou nodded, took out a very thick glove strap from the carefree bag, and then grabbed the corpse's strength to lift it from the ground.
This thing has been completely dried, although it looks not small, it is not heavy in the hand. The humanoid is roughly the same structure as a human, but the skeleton is significantly thicker, and there is a tail behind it, especially the lizard-like head. In addition, the remains have four long straight horns on the top of the head, pointing diagonally backwards, which is also a structure that humans do not have.
Tianyou has never seen this thing, and after studying the skeleton for a long time, he can't figure out what kind of species it is. Moon Shadow says it's not a demon race, but it's obviously not a human race, which is a bit strange.
"Moon Shadow, since you know that this is not a demon clan, have you ever seen such a thing in your memory?"
"Of course, it's the Night Demon. Moon Shadow replied as a matter of course, "This is the main force of the demon clan in that battle. ”
"Demons?" this head startled Tianyou.
Moon Shadow was rather calm. "The Demon Race was also one of the powerful races in the Great War of All Races that year, and it almost won the final victory. But I vaguely remember that the demons seemed to be defeated in the end. The one you are carrying is called the Night Demon, which is a spellcaster in the Demon Clan, and the number is slightly less than that of the melee type Moon Demon, but it is also a common class, and the total number is not a lot. ”
Tianyou looked at the Daredevil corpse in his hand again. This thing is quite tall, and Tianyou has grown a lot taller during this time, and his body is already more than seven feet long. But when he lifted the back of the night demon's neck with one hand, the thing's knees were still dragging on the ground. In this way, the actual height of the Daredevil may be more than nine feet, or more than 2.16 meters.
"Is this Daredevil powerful?"
"It's just a miscellaneous soldier. After responding nonchalantly, Moon Shadow suddenly changed his words: "No, no, to me back then, this night demon was indeed just a miscellaneous soldier, but for you, master, now, this is a very powerful demon." Back then, the Daredevil was probably equivalent to about level 160. ”
The level 160 that Moon Shadow said was of course measured according to the level standard on the "Demon Record", although it was not very accurate, but it had already roughly indicated the combat power level of the night demon.
Now the disciples of Zixiao Palace can be promoted to Immortal Leader as long as they reach the Soul Condensing Realm Human Soul Stage, and this rank is only 90 levels unified into the system of "Demon Record". Level 160 is divided according to the rank of Zixiao Palace, that is, the Heavenly Authority Period of the Psychic Realm, which is already a level that can cast spells against the sky.
Here's an example. If it was raining at this time, then all the fire-based spells used by monks who were not in the Heavenly Authority Stage would be less powerful, or even completely uncast. However, the monks of the Tianwei period can completely ignore the suppression of this natural environment and cast spells as they please. From then on, factors such as terrain and environment are no longer conditions that can restrain them, and any environment is the home field.
Let's refer to the level of the masters of Zixiao Palace. The Heavenly Concubine is said to be above level 150, Ji Yao is only level 132, and the level of Zhenyuan Shangxian is unknown, but it will not be much higher than the Heavenly Concubine. In other words, the gang of bigwigs that Tianyou has seen in the entire Zixiao Palace are actually at the same level as this night demon, and even a younger generation like Tianfei may be slightly inferior.
Thinking about it this way, the strength of this night demon is not as simple as being powerful, if it is placed now, it can simply go sideways. Even the world's No. 1 immortal sect like Zixiao Palace can only barely handle this night demon with an existence of the level of a great sect master, if it is an ordinary small sect, wouldn't it be possible to even send food to the head of the sect in person?
However, in this way, Moon Shadow also said that the Daredevil was a miscellaneous existence. It's hard to imagine what the war of all nations was like back then, and even such a strong existence could only be a miscellaneous soldier.
Putting down the dried corpse of the night demon in his hand, God blessed that several more of the same dried corpses were found among the corpses all over the ground, and sure enough, this is a miscellaneous soldier, otherwise the number would not be so large. Of course, there are more of the other two types of non-human corpses. One of them is similar to the previous Daredevil, but instead of four, there are only two horns on the top of the head, and these horns are not straight, but curved.
Tianyou picked up a corpse with its horns bent backwards and asked Moon Shadow, "What is this?
Moon Shadow nodded. "Yes, that's the Daredevil too. Master, what you found before was the Daredevil, and the one you are carrying now is the Daredevil, an existence of about level 140. ”
"Level 140? That's also the existence of the Shuntian period of the Psychic Realm!"
"The demon race is a very strong race, and most of the individual combat power is not weak, and the young demons I have seen are at least hundreds of levels. Level 140 is already the weakest in the Demon Race. ”
"Fortunately, the demon clan has been exterminated, otherwise it would really be a misery! Such a fierce race, with the current strength of the ten countries and the major sects, I'm afraid it won't be an opponent, right?"
Moon Shadow nodded. "If it was the demon clan back then, it was indeed possible to easily rule the Shenzhou Continent today, after all, when it fought against the two forces of the immortals and Buddhas in their heyday, the demon clan did not fall behind, if it weren't for them being too flamboyant and not knowing how to forbear, the result of the war back then might not have been what it was. ”
"That's right. When I was wandering around, I heard that a moon demon had attacked the village, and the whole village had been eaten. Could that be the remnants of the demon race?"
"The master has only heard about it, and he has never actually seen those moon demons, so Moon Shadow can't judge it. But if the moon demon you heard about is the kind of moon demon I've seen, then it should be the demon race. ”
"I can't imagine that the demon race didn't go extinct in that catastrophe seed!"
"What's so strange about that?" Moon Shadow asked rhetorically, "Aren't our demon races also extinct?"
"That's right. Tianyou sighed and began to search the entire chamber with Moon Shadow.
The area of this secret room is not small, and the hall at the entrance alone is enough to have a larger area of the entire cave house blessed by God, and there are three stone doors in the inner place, and I don't know what is in it for the time being.
Outside, the hall seemed to be empty, and the few pieces of ornaments had been destroyed in the battle, and now there were some pieces that could not be seen. However, the corpses of both sides of the battle were exceptionally well preserved, one by one they were entangled like dehydrated vegetables, and they couldn't be pulled away even if they died, which shows how tragic the battle was back then.
In addition to the demons, there are also some strangely shaped species on the ground, and Moon Shadow only recognizes a few of them, knowing that they are one of the races that were wiped out in that war, but they don't even know the names of their original populations. As for those who the Moon Shadow didn't recognize, it was even more unrecognizable.
Of course, in addition to these who can't recognize what they are, and those demons, the most left are the human race. At least half of the more than 100 corpses were left by humans, and judging by the costumes, these people should not be a force, and there were even two humans entangled and scuffled together. It can be seen that Moon Shadow said that the Terrans are the most disunited race, and he is not just talking.
There are a lot of corpses in the cave, but nothing of value can be found. The weapons and magic weapons used by these corpses before their lives were left unattended for a long time, causing the spiritual energy to lose and degenerate into mortal iron, and then naturally oxidized in the air, and now most of them have become lumps of metal waste. As for the clothing, it can be seen but not touched, as long as it moves slightly, it will immediately turn into dust.
There was no valuable target in the stone chamber outside, so they naturally wanted to look inside, so the three stone doors came into their sight.
A stone gate on the far left is just over the gate, not far away, and it is half-hidden. Tianyou went over and pushed the door open, and saw a small stone room, which felt more like a closet. At present, it is mostly empty, except for a pile of broken wood chips and a large amount of gray-white dust piled on the ground.
Tianyou took a closer look, this dust should have been a book before, but it was too old and had all been shattered into powder. As for the wood chips, they could have been bookshelves or wooden boxes containing books, but they were now completely unrecognizable.
Exiting the small closet, they checked the first door on the right again. This door was symmetrically arranged with the first door on the left, probably the same closet, but when it was opened, it was really the same as they thought, except that there was no sand or broken wood inside, only three bodies huddled together, and one of them had multiple fractures all over its body, apparently broken by force.
The search of the two gates was fruitless, and only the middle one was left.
Tianyou and Moon Shadow cautiously walked through the corpse-strewn hall to the stone gate facing the gate.
This stone door is obviously larger than the two narrow closet doors just now, and it looks like it should be the door of a regular stone room. Tianyou got closer and found that there was actually a keyhole on the door, but fortunately it was opened as soon as he pushed it, obviously not locked, otherwise it would be another toss.
Inside the stone gate was a small hall, small in size, and there was a pile of corpses of an unknown number lying inside, all of which had been smashed by sharp blades, so that even the number could not be identified, only that this was by no means a number that one or two people could make up.
There is a moon gate on the left and right sides of the small hall, and they are all closed, not just the arches of the door frame.
They tried the moon gate on the left first, only to find that the door could not be opened, and it was actually locked again. I had no choice but to try the right one first, but fortunately this side was open. When the stone door was pushed into one wall, a room about the size of a small hall was revealed, with all the furniture inside, but now it was on the verge of decay, and it looked intact, but it would fall apart immediately if it was touched.
This room seems to be a bedroom, I don't know if it is because it has no value, so it has not been invaded, so it is well preserved, but it has no meaning to Tianyou.
I've seen all the doors that can be opened, and the only thing left is to find a way to solve the doors that can't be opened.
Fortunately, the two of them quickly found the location of the mechanism, jumped up and pressed the beast's eyes on the door, and the stone door immediately slid to the side.
The door opened, and both of them were shocked, because behind the stone door was not a stone chamber, but a deep corridor. For safety, Tianyou called Duobao down with Mocking Wind, but in order to prevent Duobao from going crazy, he stuffed him into a worry-free bag.
Re-entering the passage, Tianyou found that the road was beyond imagination, and it felt that they had gone all the way to the core area of Zixiao Peak, the floating mountain, and the passage that could still see artificial traces was getting narrower and narrower, and finally it almost became a natural stone crevice, which was barely squeezed through thanks to Tianyou's well-proportioned figure.
As they continued to move forward, there seemed to be a faint glimmer of light in the passage, so Tianyou and Moon Shadow began to speed up, and the light in front of them became brighter and brighter. Finally, the two ran to the end of the passage, but had to stop because there was no way ahead.
The final stage of this passage is basically a mountain crack, which is not artificially carved. At the end of it is not a stone chamber, but a huge space. Heaven bless the crack they came to was halfway up this space, and the exit position was like a crack in the cliff wall. Looking out from here, you can see where the light is coming from.
The glow was not a physical object, but a ball of light that tumbled and danced out of thin air. It's like a glowing liquid, but it's even more ethereal, giving a dreamlike sense of unreality. But this sense of unreality could not hide the tremendous oppressive power it bringed, and the terrifying spiritual power fluctuations were showing Tianyou its terrifying power.
"This ...... What is this?"
