Chapter 821, The Gate of Hell
The previous Nie Yuanzheng definitely didn't have such strength, but no matter where this strength came from, I was no longer his opponent now, so I quickly covered the wound hard, and then jumped onto the back of the candle dragon, and the candle dragon immediately took off into the air. Carrying me away from the rockfall.
The two ice dragons that flew out of Nie Yuanzheng's side were extremely fast, and their whole body exuded a cold air, even though they were still far away, I could still feel the cold air invading my whole body, and frost had formed on my hair and clothes.
Fortunately, the speed of the candle dragon did not slow down because of this cold air, and it was not easy for the two ice dragons to catch up with me, and after I opened up the distance between me and Nie Yuanzheng, I also recruited ghosts again to seal the wound on my shoulder, which was considered to be a temporary avoidance in any case.
But trouble is yet to come. The two ice dragons couldn't catch up with me, so they turned their heads and flew towards Zhao Hongjun, it was obvious that Nie Yuanzheng was planning to use this hand to force me back to confront him head-on.
Of course, I couldn't have watched Zhao Hongjun being killed, so I had to turn around and rush back, and let the candle dragon attack the two ice dragons.
The ice dragon looks menacing though. But in the face of the attack of the candle dragon, they didn't seem to have any ability to parry, and even the law of water overcoming fire was reversed because of the huge gap in spiritual power.
Are they really strong on the outside? Or is it just a decoy?
Countless thoughts popped into my head for a moment, but I didn't have time to think about what was going to happen. I rushed to Zhao Hongjun's side, dragged him to the back of the candle dragon, and then turned around and continued to escape. At the same time, the ground under the candle dragon suddenly exploded, and a stone giant with a burning body suddenly jumped out from under the ground, and opened his big hand to grab the candle dragon.
The candle dragon immediately tried to escape with fear beating its wings. However, there seemed to be a huge suction force in the giant's palm, and it dragged the candle dragon back.
We will definitely not be able to escape if we continue like this, and the candle dragon seems to be very aware of the current situation, so it suddenly flipped its body in the air, flipped me and Zhao Hongjun down, and at the same time used its huge tail to roll me and Zhao Hongjun up. Then he flicked his tail and threw us out dozens of meters away. The two of us were out of the stone giant's attack range in an instant, but the candle dragon was caught in the palm of the giant hand.
With that big hand clenching hard. The candle dragon's whole body was also engulfed in a bright flame, and then a huge explosion sounded and the shock wave generated by the explosion also pushed me and Zhao Hongjun even further.
I rolled in the air several times, my head almost blown up, but I summoned Chaos before I hit the ground and let it catch me and Zhao Hongjun. When I looked back at the place where the stone man had just come out, the stone man was gone, and the candle dragon was gone, leaving only a cloud of black smoke in the air.
I'm not sure if the explosion just now was intentional or not, but I really don't have time to worry about the safety of the candle dragon now, if Nie Yuanzheng finds something to chase and kill him, I'm afraid my little life will really have to be explained here! So I hurriedly let Chaos fall back to the ground. Then try to hide your breath as much as possible, and just wait for the Raven Tengu who scattered before to bring me back reinforcements.
I found a dense grove as a hiding place, and then the cat crouched there for a few minutes, and the first Raven Tengu finally flew back, and the Great Tengu immediately stepped forward to ask. I didn't have any hope for the Raventengu, because judging by its reaction when it returned, it didn't seem to have made any major discoveries at all.
However, it was clear that there had been a major error in my judgment, and after asking, the Great Tengu turned to me and said, "I have found the gate of hell, do you want to go through it now?" ”
"Hell gates?" This news was definitely a surprise to me - I was looking for Xi Lin and Vivi, but the Raven Tengu found something even more amazing.
"Yes, it's the hell you've been looking for." The Great Tengu replied.
"Where's the door? Take me there! I hurriedly said.
The Great Tengu turned back and said a few more words to the Raven Tengu, who nodded, then spread his wings and flew away from our hiding place quickly. Then the Great Tengu said to me, "I asked the Raven Tengu to gather the other companions, there are some difficult things near the gates of hell, and if you rush straight through, you may encounter dangers that you will not be able to deal with." ”
Caution is very necessary, and I don't dare to take risks easily in the face of heavy losses one after another, so I simply use the process of the Great Tengu to gather reinforcements and lie down in the woods honestly, try to recover as much of my own spiritual power as possible, and also let my demon followers better help me repair my wounds.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, the Raven Tengu came back one after another, and at the same time brought back some strange-looking imps. Visually, these little ghosts should have no combat effectiveness at all, and it is estimated that they are just some low-level demons living in the mountains and forests in some Japanese demon culture.
The Great Tengu told me that there are very few yokai willing to help people, and that the only ones who can be found to help in this Mt. Okutama are these little yokai who will succumb to force, and although these little ones will not play much role in battle, they can show us a shortcut that will not be easy to detect, so that we can reach the gates of hell as quickly as possible, while avoiding the eyes and ears of the enemy. Take Holy Touba.
Stealth, this is undoubtedly the best choice for me at the moment, so I also completely handed over the job of guiding to those little monsters brought back by the tengu.
These little monsters can't fly, so we can only move around the mountains and forests on foot, but with the guidance of these little monsters, I really didn't encounter Nie Yuanzheng or the Demon Mountain Corpse Guy attacks along the way.
On the way, the tengu also explained to me some of the things he had heard from the little monsters.
Those little yokai said that there had been no particularly powerful yokai in the Okutama generation before, but recently something special has suddenly appeared, and some small yokai have gotten great power from somewhere. But this is not a good thing for those little monsters, because after gaining power, they also lose consciousness and become completely puppets whose actions are beyond their control.
Later, these monsters found out that the culprit of all this was actually the king of hell, and they naturally did not dare to compete with the king of Hades, so they could only choose to escape. Perhaps it was because of their preoccupation with avoiding Hades that they figured out a way to hide themselves, and now they are using it to take me to the gates of hell.
The area where the gate is located is not hidden, and I even feel as if I have been in this area during the day, but when the little monsters reached the so-called Hell Gate, I only saw a large mountain like a dam, and there was no Hell Gate at all.
I asked the big tengu to help me check with the little yokai again, and the youkai gave a very positive answer, and the gate was right in front of me.
Across my face was a mountain as steep as a dam, and I had seen so many of them that I couldn't see any difference between the mountain in front of me and the ones I had seen before.
I was suspicious when I suddenly heard a loud bang from the top of the mountain, and I thought that another pursuer had arrived, but the little monsters who had shown me the way had no intention of escaping, as if they did not think that the loud noise was dangerous at all.
And so it was, and after the sound passed, stones began to roll down from the top of the mountain. As the rocks rolled more and more, the entire surface of the mountain fell off, as if a roller shutter door had been opened, and then a gate almost as high and wide as the mountain actually appeared in front of my eyes!
The gate was completely different from the hell gate I had seen before, it seemed to be made of countless huge bones, and there were bright red muscles hanging between the bones, and even blood was flowing down the muscles, and in a short time the entire ground in front of the door was dyed dark red.
The stone fell to the ground and kicked up a cloud of dust, and when the dust gradually dissipated, the little monsters who led the way also showed fear on their faces, and a layer of frost seemed to form on their bodies.
Suddenly, the nearly 100-meter-high flesh gate made a loud rumbling noise, and the ground beneath my feet shook with it.
The youkai who led the way let out a series of exclamations, and then turned around and fled. But before they could run far, a cold air that gathered close to the ground froze these little monsters into ice cubes! With a crackling and popping cracking sound, these ice cubes that had just been frozen also burst, and the monsters sealed inside were shattered!
Although the flesh gate was still rumbling, I could clearly hear my own heartbeat, and a sense of fear was coming over the gate that I had never experienced before.
With another loud explosion, the door opened! Although only a gap was opened, a strong yin wind had already blown out of the door!
I hurriedly sealed, recited mantras, and tried to build a Buddha light enchantment with the spells that my ancestor had used twice before, but before I could lay out the enchantment, the yin wind had already blown on my body, and my whole body was quickly frozen up, and almost in an instant, I lost consciousness, and I couldn't even turn my eyes, only my brain was barely functioning!
I know I'm frozen, just like those little monsters just now, and if the ice shatters next, then I'll be like those little monsters, turning into a pile of frozen pieces of minced meat!
"I know you're going to find it, and I know what you're trying to do! The gates of hell are right in front of you, and I will push open this cursed gate myself! Although this was not our original intention, it was your aggressiveness that forced us to make this choice! If we can't turn hell into a human world, then we can only turn this human world into another hell! ”
With that muddy and low voice, the Great Phase Beast Xitian also appeared in the middle of the Hell Gate, and with his huge arms, he pushed the two flesh door panels from the inside, and the Hell Gate slowly opened!
