When Su Qi was in Qishan, he had seen many scenes of bee swarms passing by, they gathered together, turned into a black belt and swept through the low altitude, and the humming sound was like a torrential rain, but this kind of collective action of bee swarms was actually quite rare, either for migration or planning to separate.

Naturally, this thing flying in the darkness would not be a swarm of bees, but it had a similar sound, and the dense flapping of wings made everyone very uncomfortable, which was an instinctive disgust, and the thought that this thing must be some kind of black beast that had never been seen before, there was not a single monk present who was not cautious and careful.

The ember city lord stood high above the dome, Qiong Tianyin's defeat did not make him too depressed, he glanced at the boundary road in the north of the city, where the monks formed a line of defense, firmly blocking the monks who went south, but because of the limited width of the boundary road, the area where the battle was fought was already a mountain of corpses, but there were still a large number of scattered cultivators standing behind, with nothing to do, while cursing and scolding, while peeking at the changes on the dome from time to time.

The ember city lord knows very well that the black beast's attack will not only be maintained on the boundary road, judging from the great battle that broke out in the two cities of Bashuo and Qingliu a few days ago, the black beast has the ability to break through from the darkness to the boundary road, maybe a large number of black beasts will pour into the ember city in the next moment, and give the monks here a bag.

But what are the black beasts going to do? and how are they going to restrain themselves as a half-emperor? Although it seems that he can't help this stone tablet and the mud on it, as long as he moves freely, the black beasts have no possibility of taking this place.

Eight Shuo, The situation in the two cities of Qingliu is very different from that of this place, these two cities are built in secret places, and the black beasts could have bypassed these two secret places and went south directly, but the monks in the city will not sit back and watch them act recklessly, and the slightest army to cut off the back road of the black beasts will make them extremely uncomfortable, so the black beasts have to fight to the death with the monks of the boundary road in these two secret places, so as to stabilize the rear of the entire attack on the boundary road, but even if hundreds of thousands of black beasts were killed and injured, they have never dispatched the power of the Half Emperor Realm, and therefore, the black beasts have never been able to take Bashuo and Qingliu City。

If they still don't plan to dispatch the Half Emperor, the Ember City will definitely be in danger.

The buzzing sound grew louder and louder, and the embers threw out the small ding, which fell in the darkness like a waterfall, illuminating a small area of darkness and allowing everyone to get a glimpse of the true face of those black beasts.

Of course, it wasn't a swarm of bees that flew in.

At the moment of appearance, many people gasped and exclaimed one after another.

"What the hell is this—what the hell is this?"

"This is also a black beast?"

"You can't call it a beast at all, can you?"

The flying black beast is like a bird, but it is completely different, it has four long wings, each wing is bare, without any feathers, the naked dark red skin is full of pitted scars, as if it has been corroded by something, the body is not the appearance of any bird, it is very like a square stone tablet with a round head, two of the four wings grow on the side of the stone tablet, and two of them grow on the back of the stone tablet, when it flies, the front of the stone tablet is facing down, and there is only a huge golden eye on the head, staring directly at everyone, without any humanity, let alone any emotion, as if he only possesses the instinct and desire to kill.

There are hundreds of them.

"This thing seems to have nothing to do with the stele. "Su Qi's Eight Desolation Sword has been unsheathed, but in fact, none of the monks present know how to deal with these strange-shaped black beasts.

"That eye, too, is like that lump of mud. Dongfang Jiyue said softly.

Although the stele bird's wings flapped and flapped, it was actually not flying fast, and Su Qi quickly discovered that the buzzing sound did not come from the wings, but from the stele bird's head, under the huge golden eyes, there were two small gray pores, Su Qi didn't know if this was its beak or its nose, but that buzzing sound came from these two small holes.

Xiao Ding, the lord of Ember City, was slightly oblique, and the Dingkou was aimed at the stone tablet bird, and a beam of white light circulated in the Dingkou.

The chanting suddenly became louder, as if there was an evil being standing high in the sky, and the mouth was whispering unknown words, no one could understand what it was saying, but the malice hidden in this voice was clearly discerning.

And this malice is aimed at the ember city lord.

The soft mud had opened all its eyes, there were hundreds, all staring at the emberfire city lord, there was an inexplicable power emerging between heaven and earth, this power was incompatible with the monks, and at the moment it appeared, Su Qi and the others understood that this was the power of the dark dao mark, it was from the same source as all the black beasts in the field, and it began to echo with the hundred-zhang stone tablet.

The chanting sound became rapid, and the long whiskers of the soft mud danced more and more restlessly, and these long whiskers had completely detached themselves from the stele, like a messy hair flying in the air, allowing everyone to get a glimpse of the true face of the stele.

This is indeed not a wordless monument.

There are dozens of large characters on the top that no one can read, and below the characters are three ancient pictures, although they are not clear enough, but the general content can still be seen

The first depicts a faceless giant, armed with an axe in one hand and a hammer in the other, as if he was opening up the world, with the world split in two at his feet.

The second picture depicts a woman, she wears a golden armor mask, with four wings on her back, she seems to be fighting the enemy, but there is no enemy in the painting, only white feathers can be seen flying around, her right hand is pulling one of the enemy's arms, and her left hand is carrying a head, which is drenched in blood and cannot be seen clearly.

The third picture does not have any figures, only an ancient city, the walls are nailed with corpses, this city seems to be falling from the sky, below is a black earth, countless arms stretching out of the soil, this is a mass grave, and the ancient city, about to fall into darkness.

"That city ......" the ember city lord looked surprised, "where is the underworld?"

Underworld?

Su Qi raised his head suddenly, the embers of the city lord stared at the third ancient map without blinking, wanting to identify more details from it, the third painting was the clearest of the three, but the picture was too gloomy, and the color was also very bleak, Su Qi looked at it for a long time, only to find that there were several lonely ghosts floating on the edge of the black soil, they raised their heads, staring at the ancient city above the sky with a longing expression, as if waiting for it to fall.

"Those corpses!" Dongfang Jiyue suddenly patted Su Qi's arm, she pointed to the corpses on the ancient city wall, "Look closely, are they all wearing that kind ......of golden mask?

When Su Qi heard this, his whole body suddenly turned cold, Dongfang Jiyue was right, these corpses and the woman in the second ancient picture wore exactly the same golden mask, and between these corpses, there was also a small eye engraved, it was brilliant gold, no different from the mud.
