Section 22 Vertical pupils

Behind the stone temple, stone steps go straight up into the clouds on the horizon. www.biquge.info The bitter wind blew over the steps, making a sound like a ghost crying wolf.

If he had time, Chen Yin would not mind staying in front of this spectacular miracle for a while, admiring its magnificence, and then discussing the wonders of this suspended staircase, etc......

But Chen Yin: They don't have time now.

By the time they saw the miraculous hanging stone steps, the steps closest to the ground had already begun to disappear.

"Quick! Hurry up! Angel jumped up the stone steps first, but before she could stand firmly, the steps began to crumble, and she hurriedly went up another level.

Chen Yin jumped up the second after Angel, but the steps collapsed one more level.

"Keep up!" Chen Yin grabbed Aunt Jiya's hand and pulled her up......

However, the stairs collapsed again.

At this time, Chen Yin and the others were already very high from the ground, and they saw that Lancelot and Uncle Tim at the bottom of the steps could no longer come up.

"Come on! Step on my hand! Lancelot's knees were slightly bent, his hands were on his knees, and Uncle Tim stepped on Lancelot's hand with a strong step, and then the two of them worked hard together, making Uncle Tim jump up suddenly, and Chen Yin grabbed his hand and pulled Uncle up.

The steps continued to collapse, Chen Yin retreated a few more floors, and threw down a rope: "Hold on!" ”

Lancelot was smashed all over his head by the collapsed stone, but at this time, he didn't care about it, ran two steps and jumped up, grabbing the rope thrown down by Chen Yin.

At the other end of the rope, Chen Yin and Uncle Tim dragged Lancelot's iron lump up......

"Whew...... It's time for you to lose weight. Chen Yin threw the rope and sat on the steps with his butt gasping and yelling.

"It's because my armor is too heavy." Lancelot scratched his head.

"Okay, it's my mistake, I shouldn't have told you jokes......" Chen Yin muttered a few words, slowly stood up, and coiled the rope in circles.

"Let's go, let's go to the front to rest, I'm a little bottomless when I'm always being chased like this." Chen Yin hung the coiled rope around his waist against the strong wind.

Looking back, nearly 30 steps had collapsed where Chen Yin and the others had come up, and now it was three stories high from the ground.

There are no handrails on either side of the stairs, and it makes me feel dizzy when I walk on it and look down a little. Fortunately, there are no people who are afraid of heights among the people, although they are frightened, but at least their hearts are not panicked and their hands are not shaking.

"Your Highness, what did you see in that megalithic temple just now?"

In the wind, Chen Yin walked behind Angel, and because the distance was very close, it was not necessary to ask her a question.

"I saw a lot of stone slabs, each of which was carved with the words of prehistoric civilizations, although I didn't know much, but the parts I knew basically matched the information I found before."

It was very difficult to speak in the wind, and after a few words, he felt that he could not breathe, and after a pause to adjust his breathing, Angel continued:

"There's some information I don't have, but I don't have time to look closely, the earth element on the altar is dying, and if we don't catch up, we'll be locked behind."

"Also, none of us brought elemental creatures, and even if there were, we didn't have a way to activate the altar." Chen Yin nodded.

"Actually, the elemental creatures and the way to activate the altar are not a problem, and the most important thing is that we can't let the people of the Shadow Church take the lead! It is said that when the Wind Elemental Altar is activated, the central part of the ruins will be opened, which contains a large amount of prehistoric civilization technology, and there is also a treasure called 'Legendary Guardian'......"

"Treasure? What is it for? Chen Yin asked subconsciously.

"It is said that it can save the world......" Angel was interrupted by Chen Yin in the middle of his sentence.

Chen Yin didn't expect that there were any treasures in this ruin? Thinking of this, Chen Yin suddenly felt that something was wrong, so without waiting for Angel to finish speaking, the next question was immediately raised:

"Wasn't this relic explored by the Prophet? And then there were witches who came in and went out, why didn't they take the secret treasure here? Don't tell me why they're trying to keep the ruins intact or whatever, I can't believe they're not interested in this fate-changing treasure! ”

After Chen Yin finished saying a large paragraph, he felt a little out of breath, and it was really a test of people's lung capacity to speak in the low-pressure cyclone of the strong wind.

"As far as I know...... No. Angel shook his head, "There should be a defense force that is difficult to break through, you can't get through it with your own strength alone, I heard that it takes a lot of sacrifices to let the soul energy fill it up before you can take out a thing, and it doesn't have to be a secret treasure." ”

"This conclusion came out of His Majesty the Sage, at that time, he just couldn't bear to sacrifice too much, and finally gave up retrieving the secret treasure, and Christian is even more impossible, it is impossible for her to take out the secret treasure alone."

After Angel's words explained some doubts, they turned to make Chen Yin have more doubts.

"Then we don't have to rush? There are only 7 people in the Shadow Church...... No, there are only 6 left, and even if all five of them are sacrificed, it can't be considered a 'lot' sacrifice, right? ”

After Chen Yin finished speaking, Angel shook his head.

"It's that simple...... You may not know that the Shadow Church has a technology to seal the souls of humans, and there are only a few of them, but there are probably thousands of unjust souls on their bodies! ”

Angel said a little anxiously: "So, we must catch up before they open the secret treasure, otherwise it will be bad if they get the secret treasure!" ”

"Good...... Don't say anything, let's hurry. Chen Yin took a few deep breaths, stopped talking, and climbed down the steps that reached into the sky.

As the height of Chen Yin and the others gradually increased, the temperature around them began to slowly decrease, and the wind became even more rude and wild, sometimes it was like a transparent person trying to push everyone down.

As a last resort, everyone had to half-lie on the stone steps and climb up in a half-walking and half-climbing posture, which can not only reduce the effect of the wind, but also feel that it is very physical energy saving after a long time......

…… And the price: the pose is just too ugly.

Everyone slowly climbed towards the sky in such a difficult environment, the endless steps rose higher and higher, and the wind became more and more violent.

It is estimated that there is a level 8 or so wind to climb a stone staircase with no handrails or even a place to grab it. Angel was even accidentally blown up! Fortunately, they all had protective ropes wrapped around their waists, and Chen Yin reacted immediately and pulled her back to the stone steps.

However, the wind in front of them was no longer able to walk, so everyone had to take out the heavier equipment and supplies, and carry them on their backs to add weight, so that they stabilized in the strong wind.

When the bitter wind reached its extreme, it suddenly began to slowly weaken. When Chen Yin and the others entered the clouds along the stone steps, the wind was even completely still, although the restlessness of the wind could still be vaguely felt, but in fact it was just a wisp of breeze, which would not affect their actions at all.

"Whew...... I'm exhausted. Chen Yin threw the big backpack on the ground, let out a sigh, and looked back at Lancelot, who had not gained any weight, and couldn't help but feel a little envious, jealous and hate......

"I knew I was wearing knight armor and wearing ......," Chen Yin muttered quietly.

"But Your Excellency, your physical strength is not good, if you wear knight armor, it will affect ......," Lancelot said seriously, but before he could finish speaking, Chen Yin interrupted him loudly.

"Hey!" Chen Yin glared at him dissatisfied.

"What's wrong? Am I wrong? Lancelot was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and asked Uncle Tim, "Could it be that Your Excellency has made great progress in training recently?" ”

"No, it's still rotten. In particular, his physical strength is only slightly stronger than that of a 2-star vow-holder. "Uncle Tim doesn't give face at all.

"Okay, I'm losing to you......" Chen Yin sighed, he had worked hard for this physical problem, but it was still far from a 5-star aboriginal vow-holder, of course, it had something to do with Chen Yin's upgrade too fast, from 1 star to 5 stars in such a short period of time, even in the Holy Light Church, it was rare......

"Shhh......h Front! Uncle Tim, who was walking at the front of the group, suddenly stopped, crouched down and pointed ahead, "Come and see ......"

Chen Yin cautiously leaned over......

When he walked up to Uncle Tim, he suddenly noticed that the vision around him was clear, and they had actually crossed the clouds!

The white clouds are like soft marshmallows, one by one connected to the distance, and as far as the eye can see, the main piece is this fluffy carpet......

But Chen Yin knows that this seemingly soft "carpet" can't be stepped on, and if you jump on it directly, you have to experience what is called "free fall movement"...... Of course, in the end, it is inevitable to have a close contact with the earth.

However, Chen Yin has also seen the wonders between the clouds in some cartoons and aerial shooting, although he is not as intuitive as standing here and witnessing it with his own eyes, but after all, he has seen it, so he is so surprised.

But even so, he was taken aback.

In the depths of the clouds, a huge temple of complete transparency stands in the depths of the clouds.

The substances that made up the temple seemed to be still rotating, as if the transparent matter in them would turn into a violent wind and rush towards Chen Yin and them in the next moment......

But in fact, their appearance is very stable, and despite the wind elemental rolling wildly inside, the edges of these transparent stones are still clear and stable, and there is no appearance of the balance being broken.

A few small black dots were standing in the center of the temple and were busy with something, counting exactly 6 carefully.

"Those are the people from the Shadow Church, aren't they?" Chen Yin asked.

"No, not necessarily. Who did the old butler seem to be talking to before he died? So I think the Shadow Church has spotted us, and the black spots in front of us are not yet decoys or something. Lancelot explained.

"Hmm......" After listening to Lancelot's explanation, he pondered slightly, and before Chen Yin could express his opinion, he saw that those black spots in the Temple of the Wind suddenly stopped moving, and then ......

A huge wind elemental lord was summoned.

The wind elemental was so huge that it could reach the spire of the Temple of the Tempest! But as soon as it was summoned, it was trapped by countless transparent chains, and then every transparent stone in the entire Tempest Temple began to flicker wildly.

If you look closely, you can clearly see that the things in the body of the giant wind element are being frantically sucked into the entire wind temple, and every stone seems to come to life, frantically absorbing the energy of the giant wind element.

It seemed that in just a moment, the huge wind element was completely absorbed, and then a golden vertical pupil opened violently in the center of the Wind Temple!

"That's it! Door!? Angel was immediately excited.

Beside the excited Angel, Chen Yin was unusually silent, and his eyes flashed with a look that no one could understand.

"Hmm...... That's it...... I remember it......"

Chen Yin muttered quietly, his eyes getting brighter and brighter.

Not long after the huge golden vertical pupil appeared, those few small black dots penetrated into the vertical pupil.

"Let's go! While it's not closed! ”

After chasing Chen Yin for so long, they finally saw the main master, and at this critical moment of competing for the secret treasure, they didn't care if this was a trap deliberately set by the other party, everyone quickened their pace, stepped on the black stone slab floating among the clouds, and trotted all the way to the Wind Temple.

Ten minutes later, by the time Chen Yin and the others arrived, the golden vertical pupil that had been about the same height as the Tempest Temple had shrunk to not much taller than Chen Yin.

"Do you want to talk about the road......" Before Lancelot could finish speaking, Chen Yin and Angel got in, and Uncle Tim and Aunt Gia jumped in not far behind...... In the blink of an eye, he was left alone.

Lancelot scratched his head, took one last look at the magical Temple of the Tempest, and jumped behind them into the golden vertical pupils.

Then Lancelot felt the world spin around......

"Why is it so slow? I thought you weren't coming......"

Before Lancelot could come back to his senses, Chen Yin's voice sounded in his ears.

"Shh Angel glared at Chen Yin vigorously, and then everyone fell silent and didn't speak again.

Lancelot shook his head, waiting for his dizziness to subside a little before taking a look at his surroundings......

"Huh?"

When he saw everything around him, Lancelot was stunned, only to see mountains, rivers, forests and deserts on the ground...... Countless though, fused together, and all in pocket-sized versions!

Standing here was like standing in a topographical sand table, and when he raised his head again, he found that this sand table was unimaginably huge, not only the edges were endless, but even the curvature of the horizon could be clearly seen!

It's like......

Standing on a mini planet is the same!
