Chapter 0797 - Tomb Guarding Woman?
"Lingxu Mountain ......" Dongfang Jiyue frowned slightly, "When you were imprisoned by the Demon Emperor, I heard you mention this name, it seems to be the previous residence of your sect?"
"Well, the Lingxu Mountain Range is very large, located in the Eastern Wilderness, there are thousands of large and small peaks in the mountain range, this is the main peak of Lingxu Mountain, the mountain is ten thousand feet high, and it is also the largest mountain in the Eastern Wilderness," Su Qi pointed to the location of the mountainside, " But now this mountain has been broken, 10,000 years ago in the war, a certain emperor cut off this mountain, turned it into a Jedi, now no one can get close to there, not even the half emperor, unless relying on the spirit ruin map of the sword gate, can barely enter, but it is also very dangerous, more than ten years ago, the spirit of the mountain was restless, my master led the elders of the sword gate to enter this mountain with the spirit ruin map, wanting to suppress the restless aura, but almost the whole army was wiped out, even my master himself almost lost his soul here. ”
"It's good news to see this painting," Dongfang Jiyue looked around, "It at least proves that these landscape paintings are indeed depicting things in the world." ”
Su Qi nodded, walked to the other murals nearby, and stared at them one by one for a long time, "That's right, these are all peaks in the Lingxu Mountain Range, and I recognize these mountains." ”
"Then this area is full of murals of the Lingxu Mountain Range," Dongfang Jiyue thought thoughtfully, "Maybe you can see something here, is there any difference between the murals and the real peaks?"
"Most of them are fine," Su Qi walked through the stone path, quickly looking at the murals on both sides, "But this is all the way it was ten thousand years ago, after that great battle, many peaks were destroyed," Su Qi suddenly stopped, looking left and right, "For example, here, the peaks on this wall do not exist now, and the sword qi of a certain emperor destroyed this place, leaving only a deep ravine, and the sword qi in the ravine has been endless for thousands of years, and even gave birth to a sect." ”
Su Qi paused and hesitated for a moment, "But the Lingxu Mountain Range is indeed a little special. ”
"How?"
"In the past, the entire Lingxu Mountain Range should have been covered with a special large array, and the purpose was unclear, but the Demon Emperor said that Lingxu Mountain was the same as Lang Fengfeng, it was the same place near the Heavenly Court, and it was a frontline important place against the Heavenly Court army in the past, so it was very likely to be a Great Defensive Array, but in the Great War 10,000 years ago, this Great Array was almost completely destroyed. ”
"Formation?" Dongfang Jiyue muttered, "Could these landscape maps be some kind of formation maps?"
Su Qi shrugged, "At least I haven't seen such a formation, these murals look like ordinary landscape paintings." ”
Dongfang Jiyue was about to say something, but a chaotic footstep suddenly came from the stone path in front of her, the two glanced at each other, quickly retreated, and hid at the corner of the stone road.
A man stumbled over, he was wearing a lilac dress, some blackened from being soaked in blood, his face was also full of blood, he couldn't see his true face, the most daunting thing was his left shoulder, starting from the neck, the entire left arm had been lost, and a large swarm of black bugs were entrenched in his wound, not only preventing the loss of blood, but also gradually coagulating into an arm composed of bugs.
But the injuries on this Worm Ridge Monk's body were far more than that, he was extremely seriously injured, his breath was unstable, and his divine sense was weak, Su Qi looked at it carefully for a while, only to find that there was a very small hole in his chest, which seemed to have been penetrated by some kind of needle-like blade, where there was an extremely strong murderous aura, which was still eroding his body, this was a truly fatal wound,
He kept looking back, and this action made both Su Qi and Dongfang Jiyue nervous.
Someone is chasing him?
Su Qi held the sword behind his back, staring at the Worm Ridge monk without blinking, although he was exhausted, he was still running desperately, the place where Su Qi was a crossroads, there was a fork in the road opposite Su Qi and on the left, the Worm Ridge monk did not hesitate, turned left directly at the crossroads, and rushed towards Su Qi and the others. Chase the book
With that bead there, Su Qi was invisible, and his aura was hidden, so the Worm Ridge monk didn't notice it, and rushed straight past the two of them, running wildly towards the darkness in the distance.
Su Qi looked at his back, and only waited for a few breaths before another breath came.
Su Qi swallowed his saliva and poked his head out again, but he and Dongfang Jiyue were also ready to slip away at any time.
There was a figure in the stone path slowly approaching, he walked without hurrying or slow, he didn't seem to worry about his prey slipping away at all, when he walked to the mural of Lingxu Mountain, he paused slightly, looked down at the blood on the ground, but quickly continued to walk, and when he got closer, the nearby candle flame also illuminated his face.
Su Qi was taken aback.
It turned out that it wasn't 'him', it was actually a woman.
Her cheeks were thin, not pretty, her face should be Terran, wrapped in a wide black robe, her exposed hands were slender and white, and her feet were barefoot, so she walked almost silently, her hair was tied high behind her head with a hairpin, and she carried a bamboo basket on her back, and an extremely long silver needle hung next to the bamboo basket, on which blood was dripping.
She walked quietly to the fork in the road and slowly looked to the left, making Su Qi and Dongfang Jiyue nervous.
She turned left and walked in front of Su Qi.
It wasn't until she disappeared into the darkness that Su Qi breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'm glad I had this bead, otherwise it would have been a big problem. ”
"Her realm is not high," Dongfang Jiyue said in a low voice, "Although her aura is a little strange, she is at most a god realm, which is in line with me, but for some reason, I always feel that if I really fight, I may not be her opponent." ”
"The key is who she is. Su Qi shook his hand, although it was not for a long time, his hand holding the sword was a little stiff, although the woman's face was flat, but there was an extremely strong oppressive force, "This labyrinth has been hidden underground for at least 10,000 years, how did she survive until now?"
"Maybe there is another mystery in this labyrinth, maybe there is a place where people can live, and she is just a descendant of her ancestors 10,000 years ago. ”
"It's also possible," Su Qi nodded, "It is said that when the Great Emperor fell, there were often descendants or subordinates guarding the tomb, and she was most likely a descendant of one of those stone statues outside." ”
"If that's the case," Dongfang Jiyue's expression was solemn, "then it's very likely that she is not alone, there may be a Tomb Guarding family behind her, and she is hunting Nanling monks, which shows that they are very hostile to outsiders." ”
"So you have to be more careful," Su Qi glanced at the stone path where the woman disappeared, "Don't go on this road for the time being," he turned right and walked in the direction where the Worm Ridge monk and the woman came, "Go here and have a look, maybe there will be some gains." ”
