Chapter 198: Earth Temple
The Black Lion Hawkmon continued to fight fiercely with the Treants under the leadership of Xiao Nan, and the Treants resorted to a new trick by entwining their leaf-like arms to form a tree wall in order to prevent them from being easily carried off the ground by the Black Lion Hawkmon. Xiao Nan and his companions tried a few times but couldn't catch them anymore, so they hesitated for a while, but quickly came up with a countermeasure.
It commanded the other black lion Hippogriffs to lunge towards the Treants before grabbing their canopy and flying upwards at the same time. At first, the Black Lion Hippogriffs struggled to fly, but soon the treemen's arms could no longer support them, and the tree wall they formed was forcibly separated. The Black Lion Eagle Beasts flew with these treemen to a higher place than before, and then threw them to the ground, and the few treemen who were still alive after landing were also torn to pieces by Xiao Nan with their steel-like beaks and sharp claws.
Ouyang Xiaoleng and the others were still dealing with the remaining cats and jackals one by one, while Lao Yi and his own people were covering for them behind them. In order to prevent the cats and jackals from turning into zombies again after they die, this time they will directly cut off their heads without mercy. It didn't take long for them to reach a clearing in the forest, where there was a platform paved with white marble, and in the middle of the platform was an altar where the Temple of Earth was located.
The head of the leader of the cat jackal was cut off by Ouyang Xiaoleng in one go, and the remaining cat jackals soon lost their combat effectiveness when they saw that the guard was dead, and saw that they couldn't stop this group of menacing intruders no matter what, so they fled towards the dense forest behind the platform.
Xiao Nan finally knocked down the last tree man, and it flew over the platform, "chirping" at Ouyang Hongye with a happy cry. When he heard this, he raised his head and beckoned to it, although he didn't know if Xiao Nan had been with them for a long time, or if he just happened to be here, but his affection for it deepened a lot. I didn't expect that treatment would make it repay the favor several times, and Xiao Nan, who values love and righteousness, once again proves that the record of the black lion eagle beast in the book is only one-sided, they are actually extremely intelligent and spiritual creatures, and Xiao Nan is the best among them.
But at this moment, he didn't have so much time to gather with Xiao Nan, when he had just entered the dense forest, Ouyang Xiaoleng had already heard the conversation between those trees and the god master, Xia Qiu's soul exchange technique had been carried out to the last moment, and it could be said that every second was of the essence for them now.
He had no choice but to say to Xiao Nan: "Xiao Nan, wait for us!" ”
Xiao Nan seemed to understand his words, and "chirped" a few times in response to him.
Ouyang Xiaoleng was the first to come to the position of the altar, and there was a stove filled with incense soil in the middle of the altar, and the circle outside the stove was painted with the whole process of planting the seeds of the Night Bodhi tree into the fragrant soil to grow the Night Bodhi tree, and finally forming the road to the Earth Temple. So he took out the hard-won seed of the Night Bodhi tree from his pocket as instructed on the painting, removed the top layer of incense soil and buried it in it.
Qianqi and Lingyu also surrounded them, staring intently at the big incense burner, quietly waiting for what was about to happen. After a while, the incense burner began to tremble, first a small green bud grew out of the incense soil, then the bud gradually grew larger and split into two leaves, and then the leaves continued to grow, and there were rhizomes below, and then many branches and leaves grew from the rhizome, and at the top appeared a small dark purple bud, and as the purple flower bloomed, a fresh fragrance emanated from the flower.
But the beautiful flower was gone, and the rhizome grew into a small tree, and it continued to grow, and finally broke the incense burner. And at this moment, its roots have been rooted in the ground of the altar, as if in just a few tens of seconds, the seed of the Night Bodhi Tree has grown into a towering tree, and there is a door on the tree.
Ouyang Xiaoleng glanced back at Ouyang Hongye, and when he saw him nodding to him, he stretched out his hand to open the door. Golden powder flew out of the door, and in the midst of the gold dust was a staircase that stretched down one step at a time. Without hesitation, he was the first to go down, followed by Qianqi, Lingyu, Ouyang Hongye and Lao Yi.
Walking on the brightly lit stairs, Lao Yi sighed: "Oh my God, this is where the god stays, I didn't expect that we would really be able to enter this temple in our lifetime!" ”
Another Orion asked, "Do you smell it?" There was an indescribable scent, exactly the same as the one that the flower from that seed had grown from when it opened! ”
The Orion man next to him replied worriedly, "Smelled! It has always been the Lord who has blessed us, and we don't know what happened to him. ”
At the end of the staircase is a wide promenade lined with dark green vines and a garden with fountains and idols, and a few beautiful cats strolling or resting in the garden.
"Who would have thought that such a beautiful place was built to seal the Source Sin Blood Pool!" Ouyang Hongye couldn't help but say.
"I didn't think there was anything beautiful about this, from the moment I first came in, I felt hairy all over my body, and goosebumps got up!" Qianqi complained.
"I don't like this place either, how to put it, although I have lived in a dungeon since I was a child, and it stands to reason that I should be very accustomed to this kind of environment, but the atmosphere here is really weird, and there is an indescribable evil atmosphere." Lingyu should be reconciled.
Ouyang Xiaoliang didn't listen to the conversation between them, from the moment he entered the Earth Divine Temple, he could faintly receive some signals, including those cats on the side of the corridor were also transmitting messages to the Divine Lord.
"Lord God, the intruder has entered the temple!"
"Cats, jackals, and treants have failed!"
"Lord God, please be careful!"
This corridor leads directly to the main hall of the Earth Temple, the door of the main hall is open to the outside, the blue ground is carved with auspicious cloud patterns, and the surrounding walls are painted with scenes of the Divine Domain, including the Divine Eagle Forest, the Lotus Pond, the Qunfang Garden, and the Aeon Plain guarded by the dwarves of the Divine Domain.
There are four statues of gods standing on the high platform in front of them, which are the four sons of the god Qiansu, Suzaku, Qinglong, White Tiger and Xuanwu. And in the middle of the four statues of the gods there is a figure, the man looks no more than twenty years old, his long hair stands high on the top of his head, perhaps because he has lived underground for a long time, so his skin looks unusually pale, the color of his pupils is very light like that of an albinist patient, although his facial features are not exquisite, but he is also a handsome young man. Dressed in an orange robe, he was sitting on a high platform with his hands crossed over his chest, his feet casually resting.
"You're the Divine Master?" Ouyang Xiaoleng rushed to the high platform and asked.
"Yes and no!" The orange-robed young man jumped down from the high platform and landed lightly in front of Ouyang Xiaoleng and said, although he was very close to him, there was not the slightest look of fear or nervousness on his face, and he didn't feel the slightest murderous aura on him.
"What does it mean to be yes and no?! You're kidding us?! Qianqi also came to him and said angrily.
"The god is a dead brain, and he is kind enough to persuade him to take refuge in us, but he is not happy to live or die, and he has to guard this broken temple for the god of heaven, and his good time will be wasted in this dark ghost place!" The orange-robed young man responded with a disdainful smile on his lips.
"We guessed correctly, the body of the god lord is occupied by someone else, who are you?!" Ouyang Hongye also stepped forward and asked.
"Yo, there's a beautiful man here, if I had seen you earlier, I wouldn't have wanted this body!" The orange-robed young man's eyes lit up when he saw Ouyang Hongye, and he smiled.
"Don't talk nonsense with him, since he is no longer a god, let's quickly defeat him so that we can save Xia Qiu!" Qian Qi said as he raised the jade cicada sword in his hand and swung it at the orange-robed youth.
"Impatient, easy to do bad things, you must be the son of the old dragon king, Qianqi!" The orange-robed youth jumped backwards to dodge his attack with ease, his movements looking like a gust of wind, light and elegant.
"You're prone to bad things!" Qianqi roared, and the orange-robed youth's words made him even more angry.
"Big stupid dragon, don't say that what he said still has some truth! But ......" Ling Yu said in thought on the side, and then suddenly threw the jade sleeve brocade at the orange-robed youth, and the silk was twisted into countless awls and stabbed at him.
He dodged left and right and came to Ling Yu, and said with a smile: "It's hard to distinguish between male and female, you are the beautiful young Ling Yu who grew up in the dungeon!" It's a pity that you're moving too slowly, and you're a little bit less powerful! ”
"Looks like this guy knows about us!" Lingyu said to the thousand horses beside him.
"Well, the evil aura that I have been feeling since I came in is coming from him, I don't know what kind of monster he is!" A thousand riders answered.
The orange-robed young man didn't pay attention to them, but flashed in front of Ouyang Xiaoleng and Ouyang Hongye, and said with a bright smile: "If you want to say that the appearance of the demon fox is better, whether it is the red-haired demon fox Hou Ouyang Hongye, or the demon king fox Ouyang Xiaoleng over there, just looking at it is so pleasing to the eye!" ”
"If you want to fight, you can fight, why do you talk so much?!" Ouyang Xiaoleng was already impatient, and he only entered the Earth Temple after some hard work, but was stopped by this unknown monster.
"Don't be angry, Lord Demon King Fox, I once had some friendship with your grandfather!" The orange-robed young man stuck to Ouyang Xiaoleng's body at a very fast speed and said.
When Ouyang Xiaoleng's body came into contact with him, he only felt a burst of coldness, just like the cold north wind in the cold winter, which made people tremble, especially when he deliberately blew a breath in his ear, which immediately made him feel that his ears were almost frozen and unconscious.
"I don't even dare to report my name, I think he's just a coward!" As he spoke, Qianqi attacked the yellow-robed young man again, and stabbed the sword in his hand at him.
Ouyang Xiaoleng didn't know what was going on, he felt that his body was like being pushed forward by a strong wind, and he went towards Qianqi's sword, if it wasn't for Qiancai's timely sword, he would have to hurt him.
"It's dangerous! What's going on? Ouyang Hongye asked.
"I didn't know, my body was involuntarily carried up by a gust of wind." Ouyang Xiaoleng turned around and glared at the orange-robed young man and said, he knew in his heart that this guy must have done it.
"Hahahaha, that's fun!" The orange-robed young man laughed wildly, and then jumped back onto the high platform, looking at the people under the high stage like watching a monkey show.
