Chapter 70: Blood Sandalwood
Longyun ore vein, the largest mining cluster in Antarctica, mainly produces a large number of spiritual stone mines, which are controlled by several large sects in Antarctica.
The mine where the Liu family is located is to the west of the Longyun vein, and there is a large area of mine, but now no one is continuing to mine, and it is blocked all around, and there are some disciples of the Liu family guarding it.
"I've been here once before, and I've heard from disciples outside that since the last time something happened, there have been frequent roars in the cave, and blood has been flowing out of the cave every night. ”
In front of the mine, Liu Yuan pointed to the bright red blood stains on the ground outside the mine, and said to Ye Qingtian on the side.
Ye Qingtian was also puzzled, the cave was spilling blood, which did sound incredible.
At this time, there was no blood spilling from the entrance of the cave, and the blood that flowed out of the ground outside had dried up.
"Childe. ”
Seeing Liu Yuan coming over with someone, the surrounding Liu family disciples shouted respectfully.
Liu Yuan nodded slightly, and took Ye Qingtian into the mine.
Ye Qingtian looked up, and these Liu family disciples around him all had gloomy faces, and they didn't have much spirit, and it seemed that they were indeed frightened during this time.
"Young Master Liu, are you sure this is blood?"
Ye Qingtian looked at the blood-stained stones and some spirit stone mines that had not had time to be transported out, and asked out loud.
"Isn't it?" Liu Yuan replied puzzled by Ye Qingtian's question.
Ye Qingtian squatted down, carefully looked at the dried blood on the ground, shook his head, and said, "Blood doesn't exude a fragrance. ”
"Qingxiang, Ye Gongzi, don't joke with me. Liu Yuan didn't believe it, so he also squatted down and sniffed it carefully.
Indeed, as Ye Qingtian said, the blood stains on the ground at this time did not have the slightest blood, with a very light fragrance.
"It's... Why, I saw it with my own eyes, blood spilling out of the cave, and all over the place was full of blood, how could it become like this when it dried up? ”
Liu Yuan looked a little surprised, stood up, and looked up into the mine.
Although Ye Qingtian had some guesses in his heart at this time, he was not sure, he glanced back at Liu Yuan, the two nodded at the same time, and walked towards the mine.
"Huh... Childe..."
The disciples outside tried to dissuade them, but before they finished speaking, the two of them had already entered the mine.
Ever since something strange happened in the mine, resulting in the death of a large number of disciples, no one has entered this cave again.
For such a long time, the Liu family only asked Liu Yuan to come over to check and did not pay much attention to it, but Liu Yuan was very playful and never entered the mine.
The cave is pitch black, surrounded by traces left by mining, the space is very large, there are still bright red blood stains on the ground, and there is a faint fragrance in the air.
"What the hell did you dig up?"
Walking in the cave, Ye Qingtian looked at the darkness in front of him, palpitations, and asked Liu Yuan out loud, with a heavy echo.
"I don't know the specifics, I heard the disciples say that it's a big coffin," Liu Yuan replied.
"You, the son of the Liu family, are really passing. Ye Qingtian was helpless for a while, feeling that this son of the Liu family didn't know as much as those disciples outside.
Liu Yuan was embarrassed for a while, and he didn't say much, carefully looking at the surrounding environment.
The further you go inside, the larger the space inside becomes, and there are already many large and small caves around, but at this time, a smell of blood begins to emanate from the air.
Poof...
Smelling this smell of blood, Ye Qingtian's heart suddenly beat violently, and then stabilized again.
It's just that this moment, Ye Qingtian almost didn't ease his breath, his scalp tingled for a while, and he stared at the dark space in front of him, where there seemed to be a pair of eyes staring at them.
Whew...
In the mine, a breeze suddenly began to blow, and it was extremely cold.
The breeze blew on this face, and Ye Qingtian felt that his head was dizzy for a while, and he wanted to fall asleep.
"What the hell. Ye Qingtian frowned and roared, and at the same time, his spiritual power spewed out from the center of his eyebrows, which immediately made him refreshed,
However, when he saw Liu Yuan again, he found that Liu Yuan was walking towards the depths of the mine without a master, his eyes were blank, and his whole person was soft.
Ye Qingtian knew very well that Liu Yuan had the cultivation of the True Martial Realm, and although his spiritual power was not as good as him, it was definitely strong.
Now, the breeze blowing in the air can't even parry Liu Yuan, you can imagine how terrifying the things that exist in the mine are.
"Liu Yuan!"
Ye Qingtian suddenly roared, and his spiritual power burst out, rushing straight into Liu Yuan's mind.
Liu Yuan's whole body was suddenly shocked, and then his whole body returned to normal.
"I... What happened just now?" Liu Yuan was woken up by Ye Qingtian's sound, and when he saw his current location, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
Ye Qingtian came to Liu Yuan's side, and at this time, he was not in the mood to laugh at Liu Yuan, and said in a low voice: "Pay more attention, this mine is too weird, and there is a power that can affect the mind." ”
After speaking, Ye Qingtian frowned and walked towards the depths of the mine, where there was already a dark red light flickering in the darkness.
Ye Qingtian's curiosity is very heavy, and he will never back down because of what happened just now.
Hearing Ye Qingtian's words, Liu Yuan was also scared for a while, and followed behind at the same time, but he was much more careful.
There was no road ahead, and the mine had come to an end, and in front of them was a large space, without any traces of human digging.
Obviously, this huge space appeared out of nowhere, or has always existed in the mine.
On Ye Qingtian's side, there was a huge coffin, with a piece of blood red on it, and only one ** was exposed, it seemed that the disciples of the Liu family had only dug it up half, and something strange had already happened.
At their feet, there were a large number of stones piled up, and there were many cracks in them, which only appeared when they were subjected to gravity.
In other words, when the disciples of the Liu family dug up the coffin, the huge space in front of them did not appear, and it was later that I don't know why it was broken here, causing this space to be presented.
"What a coffin. Liu Yuan stared at the half of the red coffin in front of him and said loudly.
The red on the coffin was the same as the blood on the ground, but it wasn't dry, and there were subtle movements.
The smell of blood became stronger and stronger, and Ye Qingtian looked back, and the sky outside had gradually darkened.
"The blood only comes out at night, and during the day it smells good. ”
Ye Qingtian stared at the coffin in front of him, whispered, and then fell into memory.
"Blood Sandalwood!"
A moment later, Ye Qingtian and Liu Yuan also glanced at each other at the same time, and exclaimed, with shocked looks on their faces.
"Good fellow, it turned out to be blood sandalwood. Liu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and said loudly.
Ye Qingtian calmed down, with some doubts, and then said, "Let's dig out this coffin first." ”
After saying that, he already took the bronze spear in his hand and began to pry the stones around the coffin.
Liu Yuan glanced at Ye Qingtian in surprise, showed a smile, and said, "Using ancient soldiers to dig coffins, I'm afraid only you Ye Gongzi can do this kind of thing." ”
After speaking, Liu Yuan also took out a long sword and split the stone that was pressing the coffin.
In less than a moment, the entire coffin was completely presented in front of the two.
The whole body was blood-red, and the blood on it was surging, and over time, a large amount of blood water had flowed towards the top of the mine.
The coffin was boxy, and there was nothing peculiar about it except that it was constantly flowing with blood and looked terrifying.
"I really don't know which god is so extravagant that he actually made a coffin out of blood sandalwood. Liu Yuan looked at him curiously and sighed.
"Don't be careless, although this coffin is made of blood sandalwood, it has not been artificially damaged, and it should not spill blood. Ye Qingtian reminded loudly.
Hearing this, Liu Yuan also looked at the coffin.
There are no signs of destruction on all sides of the coffin, and blood sandalwood will not spill blood as long as it is not destroyed.
In other words, when the disciples of the Liu family dug up the coffin, they did not destroy the blood sandalwood, but in the end, something had happened, and the coffin began to bleed.
"You mean, there's something strange in the coffin?" asked Liu Yuan, his heart was also tense, and he began to get nervous.
Ye Qingtian nodded, this was the only suspicious thing he had found so far.
After hesitating for a moment, Ye Qingtian held the bronze ancient spear and directly lifted the lid of the coffin.
Bang...
The lid hit the ground with a dull thud, but after it landed, it turned into a pool of blood and flowed towards the outside of the mine.
"It's really a tyrannical thing, this is blood sandalwood, can't it be gentle?" Liu Yuan saw a huge piece of blood sandalwood, which turned into a pool of blood, and there was a pain in his flesh.
Blood sandalwood, an extremely precious wood, is used to burn, and the smell produced is able to make people feel uncomfortable, and it is an excellent material for enlightenment.
However, this wood was also destroyed at the end of the ancient period, and it is almost impossible to find it now.
Ye Qingtian didn't pay attention to Liu Yuan, who was complaining, stared at the coffin, and said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid you won't get this blood sandalwood." ”
Hearing Ye Qingtian's words, Liu Yuan also looked towards the coffin.
In the coffin, there was no bloodstain, it was clean and exuded a faint fragrance, but there was a human-shaped transparent spar inside, which was already dim and empty, and there were no bones.
"This is the Spirit Stone, don't tell me, there was a god lying in this coffin before. ”
Liu Yuan's mouth opened wide, with a look of incredulity on his face.
God, this kind of existence, which only appears in the records and legends of the classics, is a kind of creature that was active in ancient times, extremely powerful, able to move mountains and reclaim the sea with a raised hand, and when you step down, the earth will collapse.
"I don't know, but this spirit stone no longer has any spiritual power, and there are many rune veins inside the coffin, and after the people in it left, they destroyed the inside of the blood sandalwood, so this blood sandalwood is no longer of the slightest use,"
After speaking, Ye Qingtian just used the bronze ancient spear and lightly tapped the rune veins in the coffin.
Suddenly, the runes flickered, and then the entire coffin began to melt, turning into blood and disappearing cleanly.
After that, Ye Qingtian looked back at the huge space in front of him, there was a strong hurricane inside, and only a small part of it was blowing towards here, which could affect his mind.
"This giant hole may have been opened by the man in the coffin after killing the disciples of your family. Ye Qingtian muttered, and he didn't mean to go in.
"You mean, the thing in the coffin is likely to be in it?" Liu Yuan said aloud, pointing to the giant cave space in front of him.
Ye Qingtian shook his head slightly, then turned around and prepared to leave here.
"The person who can use blood sandalwood as a coffin is not something we can afford to provoke, so you better inform the elders of your family as soon as possible to deal with this matter. ”
Liu Yuan nodded, looked back at the giant cave again, and left here with him.
This is likely to involve the ancient gods, and the relationship is too huge for the two of them to find out.
