137. Bones

Brother Xiong gasped: "So much venom, how many snakes are enough!"

Zhao Yuan shook his head, he didn't know either, but as he regained his consciousness and broke the illusion, he remembered that he was wrong before. "From the moment I was provoked by the purple snake and hit the purple moss on the wall, and smelled those sweet smells, my first illusion began. But the old-timers pulled me and helped me break the illusion. After that, the purple snake followed me again, using the ticking sound of venom and the smell of venom wafting through the air, once again pulling me into the illusion. With that, Zhao Yuan took out an object from the Seven Star Ring and threw it on the ground at random. Through Zhao Yuan's perspective, Old Xuanwu and Brother Xiong saw that it was a hard wooden stick with purple moss attached to it.

"This is a branch of that tree, how can it be here for you?" Brother Xiong was confused, he didn't remember that Zhao Yuan had taken away a branch at that time!

"Brother Xiong, this is the purple snake. "When Lao Xuanwu saw this branch, there was something he didn't understand. It sighed, "The illusion here is so powerful that even I was fooled. When Zhao Yuan heard this, his eyes flashed, there were still many secrets on Lao Xuanwu's body, and the illusion here was difficult for even his ninth-order spiritual power to detect, but Lao Xuanwu could give a warning in time every time. However, Lao Xuanwu didn't take the initiative to say, and Zhao Yuan had no intention of exploring, after all, everyone has their own secrets.

This time, Zhao Yuan simply withdrew all his spiritual power to Zhihai, anyway, this relic has such a big restriction on spiritual power, he might as well see it with his eyes.

"Boy, you have to be vigilant, the purple snake before actually hid from the sky and the sea under our noses, and replaced itself with a branch, and it should still be with you. โ€

Zhao Yuan nodded, his gaze calm. In just a few moments, the huge lake below had been completely evaporated, and a pungent smell wafted through the air, and white powder floated everywhere, which was snake venom that had lost its moisture and had been completely evaporated and turned into a solid state.

Zhao Yuan glanced at the lake bed below that had completely dried up, revealing layers of white bones, and his gaze suddenly stopped somewhere. I don't know when, those lotus flowers have also withered, the branches are weakly hanging on the white bones, and the bright petals of those lotus flowers, which were originally full and stretched, are also wrinkled, shrunk into a ball, like dried flowers in the flower tea that Zhao Yuan drank before.

But it seems that because of its dryness, the red is more and more vivid, and the contrast with the pale bones is more and more weird. Zhao Yuan hesitated for a moment, but slowly flew towards the dry lotus, he didn't dare to stop casting the magic shield for a moment, nor did he dare to touch anything at will, the illusion in this place was unguardable, because he was careless.

But the lotus flower really made him unable to care, and in the end, Zhao Yuan still stretched out his hand and gently picked up the dried flower from the white bone. The petals were thin, dry, and seemed to have a little residual heat of flames, Zhao Yuan looked at the ordinary dried flowers in his hands, and his brows furrowed - he didn't believe that the flowers that grew in the venom and bones of snakes would be something pure and good.

"Zhao Yuan, could this flower be a very rare variety like the Ice Crystal Phoenix?" Brother Xiong has not only grown a lot in strength since eating that Ice Crystal Phoenix, but also has a brain that has followed the aura, so it is very coveted for these strange flowers and plants.

Zhao Yuan was helpless: "How do I know, I don't know as many herbs as you." As he spoke, he tore the dried flower from the stem of the branch with a slight force on his fingers and put it into the Seven Star Ring. It doesn't matter what it is, just take a copy back and find someone to see if it's okay.

There are only large piles of white bones left in the dry lake bed, and there is no way out to other places at all, Zhao Yuan frowned, he has been here for a long time, and the most valuable thing is actually the ruby that was deducted from the hall above, this ruin is inevitably too poor.

"Zhao Yuan, look!" A soft voice suddenly sounded in his ears, Zhao Yuan looked sideways, Brother Xiong didn't know when, he lay on his shoulder again, the little white bear was cute, and the voice was not thick and honest, but a soft child's voice.

Following the direction of the little white bear's paws, Zhao Yuan saw a large piece of white bones, which was no different from the others around, but when Zhao Yuan fixed his eyes, his pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly. Under the white bone, a very smooth white, the exposed part of the white was very wide, Zhao Yuan walked up and used the bottom of the staff to pull the surrounding white bones apart, which revealed the tip of the iceberg of things below.

The snake bone itself is elongated, and the white bone below is only exposed to a short section, but it is larger than Zhao Yuan's entire person. Zhao Yuan was slightly stunned, his mana agitated, and an invisible wind swept around him, clearing all the fragments of white bones next to him, just like that, Zhao Yuan followed the snake bone, cast a spell all the way, and walked about a hundred meters before the snake bone was completely cleared.

"Is this really a snake?" Zhao Yuan was suspended in the air of the cave, looking down at the huge skeleton that was winding below, his face full of horror, "If there is a dragon in this world, I'm afraid it will be so big." โ€

"This is not a snake. Old Xuanwu spoke, his voice low and slow, as if he was also holding the vibration in his heart.

Zhao Yuan was stunned, could it really be the bones of a dragon?

"These are human bones. โ€

"Huh?" Zhao Yuan grew his mouth and couldn't close it for a long time, "Senior, don't fool me, I won't be able to distinguish between human bones and snake bones." "What's more, if a person can grow to a hundred meters long, it can't be called a person, it has to be called Ultraman.

"Do you remember the young man who pulled the cart for you on the snowy mountain before?" said Old Xuanwu unhurriedly, "He has atavistic blood. โ€

Zhao Yuan remembered the giant dog that Zachary had become before, and a sudden expression appeared on his face, and then he still asked with some disbelief: "Is it true that an orc can become so big after returning to his ancestors?" Although Zachary has become a giant dog, it is not too exaggerated, but it is about twice as big as an ordinary sled dog.

"How many steps is that canine kid?" asked Old Xuanwu rhetorically. Zhao Yuan was silent, it is true that Zachary is only a second-order martial artist with low strength, but the giant dog he turned into is not worse than a third-order demonic beast at all.

Looking at the huge skeleton in front of him, although this is just a corpse, the residual breath on it makes Zhao Yuan dare not have the slightest disrespectful thoughts, you know, the momentum that the strong man only sees is crushed, and the spiritual power accounts for a very important part, so generally speaking, the momentum of a martial artist will never be as majestic as a mage, Zhao Yuan's spiritual power has reached the ninth order, but he is still in awe of a skeleton, and he can't help but have an amazing guess in his heart.

"Senior, this, this can't be the skeleton of a tenth-order powerhouse, right?" Zhao Yuan's heart trembled, he hadn't seen a ninth-order powerhouse so far, and now he would actually see the skeleton of a tenth-order powerhouse with atavistic bloodline.

But there was no reply in his mind, just when Zhao Yuan wondered if Lao Xuanwu was asleep, Lao Xuanwu's voice came out of his mind again, with an indescribable emotion in his voice, Zhao Yuan couldn't tell whether it was a sigh or a mockery for a while.

"It's no wonder that the snake clan fell from one of the four major tribes to an obscure middle-class tribe overnight, and it actually moved a mind that shouldn't be, the power of the gods, how can it be provoked by the body of a mortal race......" Listening to Lao Xuanwu's words, the confusion in Zhao Yuan's eyes became even heavier, and Brother Xiong's furry face was also confused, although it was an eighth-order demonic beast, its lifespan was less than a hundred years, and it didn't know any of the secrets buried in the dust of history.

"Boy, clean up this place, there should be a magic circle under these bones, you write down the magic array, and then destroy it, we can go back." โ€

Zhao Yuan didn't know why, but still according to Lao Xuanwu's words, he used a spell to push this large piece of bones to the edge of the cave and build it high. The huge snake bone was also moved aside by Zhao Yuan. As Lao Xuanwu said, the ground under the bones was really carved with a magic array with a diameter of ten meters, looking at this huge magic array, Zhao Yuan seemed to be able to imagine that many years ago, in this cave, a giant snake with a length of 100 meters was entrenched in the center of the magic array, and countless small snakes were clustered around it, holding a grand ceremony.

Zhao Yuan only read it once, and recorded this huge and complicated magic array in his heart, and his strong spiritual power also gave him super memory. Then, countless wind blades swarmed out from the tip of his staff, cutting the magic array on the ground all over the body, and then countless air bullets with dazzling light smashed down, completely erasing this magic array from the ground.

After doing this, Zhao Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, for some reason, when he saw this magic circle just now, he actually had a feeling of palpitations, as if there was not an engraved magic circle on the ground, but a forest eye looking at him.

"Let's go. Old Xuanwu said, Zhao Yuan actually sensed the meaning of urging from his slow voice.

Feeling that Lao Xuanwu's mood was not quite right, Zhao Yuan didn't ask too much, and came out of this relic first. However, when he returned to the beautiful hall, he found that the round hole in the floor of the hall was missing.

Zhao Yuan stared, looking at the smooth and flat marble floor for a moment, as if he had been pinched by his throat, and he couldn't say a word for a long time. He looked around, could it be that he had fallen into a fantasy again?

Suddenly, Zhao Yuan looked up suddenly, and on the dome, it was paved with gorgeous bird feathers, which were even more beautiful than the most delicate kaleidoscope, but the big opal that was originally inlaid in the center of the dome was gone, just a piece of bird feathers, golden and very beautiful.

Zhao Yuan suddenly felt a chill down his spine, and his fingers unconsciously clenched the staffโ€”what he saw before was not an opal, it was a snake's eye!
