Chapter 560: The Man in the Demon Tower
Compared to the six floors below, the furnishings in the seventh floor of the tower seem to be exceptionally simple, there are not even decorative lines, and I don't see any text, just a blue stone pillar in the middle. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
I always feel that this stone pillar has been seen somewhere, especially familiar, and there is a bronze box placed on the stone pillar, what can be left here is not to think about it is extraordinary, I carefully opened the bronze box, inside is a transparent vessel, only the size of my finger.
Confused, I took the vessel out of the bronze box and found it filled with a running red liquid, which I soon realized was blood.
Why would the ancestral god leave a vial of blood in the demon kingdom, and it is placed in the tower, judging from the construction of the tower, the more important the things that appear above, I rack my brains and can't understand why the importance of a vial of blood is placed on the seventh layer alone.
Suddenly, the blood in the vessel actually coagulated, this bottle of blood has been placed here for thousands of years, at least for thousands of years, before I came, but now it suddenly changed, I was surprised to put it back in the bronze box, and strangely, the coagulated blood immediately returned to its original state.
It seemed to take several attempts before I realized that the vial of blood would coagulate as soon as it left the bronze box, as if the bronze box had some magical ability to keep the blood in the vessel bright red.
I subconsciously picked up the bronze box and looked back and forth for a long time, but I didn't see anything special, until my eyes fell on the azure stone pillar below, and I frowned and tentatively put the blood that had coagulated again back on the stone pillar.
Suddenly it dawned on me that it was not the bronze box that could keep the blood, but this inconspicuous stone pillar, my eyes suddenly widened, and I looked at the stone pillar carefully, no wonder I always felt familiar, the material of the stone pillar was not the first time I had seen it.
In the dark room under Ye Jiuqing's room, Ling Xi was lying on such a stone platform.
Yang Xun, who was found in the Vientiane Shrine, was also lying on such a stone platform.
Also, there is Ling Xuan, the person who has been awakened from a thousand years of sleep, is also lying on such a stone platform.
I was secretly surprised in my heart, it was obvious that this was something on the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace, this magical stone platform seemed to have the ability to delay the decline of life, and because of this, this bottle of blood in my hand was still well preserved after thousands of years.
Why did the ancestral god place a piece of something belonging to his old enemy in his own god tomb, and judging from the arrangement of the seventh layer, this stone pillar did not exist at the beginning, but was placed here later.
What makes me even more curious is, who does the blood in the vessel in my hand belong to?
Ancestral gods?
Probably not, I quickly denied this idea, the Demon Kingdom is built so hidden, the tower is the top priority of the Demon Kingdom, what is placed here must be extremely important, if it is the blood of the gods, all that flows on my body is it, and the ancestral gods don't need to keep a separate bottle at all.
It is even more impossible to use the things on the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace to save it, unless it ......
My mouth suddenly opened, and my eyes looked at the blood bottle in my hand excitedly and in surprise, unless it was the blood of the person on the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace, I immediately thought of the ancestor of the Ying family, the ancient book left by the Witch Gu King and Wen Ru's narration, all mentioned that the ancestral god finally completed a sacrifice in the demon country, and the sacrifice was the ancestor of the Ying family.
Judging from the sacrificial process described in the murals of the ancient tomb of Leishan, what the ancestral god needs is the blood of the ancestors of the Ying family, which may be the most important thing for the ancestral god to create the twelve gods.
In order to let the descendants continue to search for the Moon Palace Nine Dragon Fang, the ancestors of the Ying family left a golden compass and limited the lifespan of the descendants, and used this method to urge the descendants to help them find the lost artifact, that is to say, the key to breaking the curse of the Ying family's lifespan is in the blood bottle in my hand.
I was overjoyed, and hurriedly put away the blood bottle, and finally fulfilled my promise to Tian Ji, in addition to saving Zhiqiu, this trip to the demon country had such a big gain.
I didn't stop at the seventh floor, I continued to go up, and when I went up to the eighth floor, I was somewhat shocked, even after going through the previous layers, I didn't dare to agree with the killing of the ancestral gods, but now standing here, I still couldn't help but bury my head.
There were towering statues of gods erected around the walls of the tower, and when I looked around, there were only eleven of them, and the statues were carved from jade, the same as the ones I saw in the temple of the ancestral gods, the only difference was that these statues did not wear masks.
The face without facial features makes these gods look particularly solemn, and I saw two concentric circles on the ground in the middle, the same as the lines on the square outside the tower, I remember that the Witch Gu King mentioned in the ancient book that the ancestral god completed a sacrifice in the tower, if I am not mistaken, this is the place where the sacrifice was made.
That kind of familiarity that makes me confused reappeared, I seem to have been here, yes, of course I have been, I and the other gods may have been created here, but why did the twelve gods want me to return to the demon kingdom, when I opened the door of the gods, I even heard that ethereal voice once and again, as if even the fallen gods were calling me.
There are only nine floors in the tower, and I can climb to the top of the tower with the last floor, but so far I have not solved the doubts that plagued me as Xie Tianhui and Zhuo Mingfeng said, nor did I know any secrets and truths.
I walked around the statue of the god standing, my hand touched the statue, and when I was in the temple of the ancestral god, I saw a strange apparition because I touched the jade statue of the ancestral god, but this time it did not appear.
The ancestral god fell in the demon country, and from the moment Emperor Qin built it, he already knew that this would be the tomb of the god who rested, and the ancestral god pinned his last hope on Emperor Qin to find He's Bi and Suihou Zhu, but in the end it fell short.
If I'm not mistaken, these jade carvings may contain the biggest secret of the Demon Kingdom.
Inside, rest the remains of the ancestral gods!
I tried to prove my conjecture, but I found that I couldn't find a way to open these jade carvings, even if I no longer agreed with what the ancestral gods did, even if I made up my mind not to help the abuse, but after all, it was God who was sleeping in front of me, and it was the God who created me.
I can not believe, but I can't be humble before God, maybe the 12 secrets and truths that God wants me to know are at the last level, I told myself in my heart.
When I reached the top step, I found that the path was blocked by a halo of light, which this time even I could not penetrate, and it seemed to have an extremely powerful force that shook me back again and again.
My first reaction was that there should be some kind of mechanism here, maybe the things on the top layer are too important, this halo is the last line of defense to protect the secrets of the ancestral god, but unfortunately I don't know anything about the mechanism, I look around again, except for the jade statues that I can't open and the lines on the ground.
In the middle of the eighth floor of the tower there was also a golden throne, I recognized it at a glance, and in the illusion I saw the man in golden armor sitting on it, and I walked to the throne, because the ancestral god was tall and different from ordinary people, so this throne was also unusually large.
It is also carved from jade, decorated with bronze all around, simple and majestic with an unparalleled solemnity, this is the throne of the god king, and it is believed that thousands of years ago, the man in the golden armor should have sat here.
I suddenly realized one thing, everywhere I saw the statues of the ancestral gods, but here I only saw eleven, and the throne of the god king was right in the middle of the other statues.
I thought to myself, the throne of the god king is the most prominent position here, if there is a hidden mechanism, maybe the way to open it should be on the throne, but after all, it is the throne of the gods, I hesitated for a long time, took a deep breath and humbly walked up, carefully searched around the throne, but after searching the throne, I didn't find anything out of the ordinary.
My eyes fell on the throne, and I don't know why, I always had the idea of wanting to sit on it, but I knew that it was an encroachment that I shouldn't have, but I couldn't suppress the impulse in my heart.
After hesitating for a long time, I sat down on the throne with anxiety, this throne was so big that I couldn't even reach the armrests on both sides when I stretched out my hand.
After all, I could not appreciate the majesty and sanctity of God, and in fact I did not expect to become a god who would only bring killing and death.
When I came down from the throne of the god-king, I suddenly found that the gods were nothing more than that, and even if they had supreme power, they would still be unable to escape death, but unfortunately, these gods did not even have their names left.
In a way, I may be much better than God, even if I die one day, at least my tombstone will leave a memorable name, and at least there will be friends who remember that there was once a person named Gu Chaoge in this world.
Not to be as lonely and obscure as the gods, I sighed heavily, retracted my thoughts and continued to try to find the hidden mechanism in the tower.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps behind him!
I quickly turned my head to look in the direction of the footsteps, which came from the bottom of the steps, and I had been so immersed in what I saw in the tower that I had forgotten another important thing.
Someone had already entered the tower before me, and I was so on the eighth floor that I didn't even see the person who had made the first move, and I nervously descended the steps, thinking about who would come out of the steps.
But as the sound of footsteps became clearer and clearer, I was secretly shocked in my heart, the footsteps were very complicated, and it was definitely not a sound made by one person.
There is more than one person who has entered the Demon Kingdom!
