Chapter 0675: Stone Tablet
How tall is this stele?
Only the part exposed in front of Su Qi and others is as high as more than 20 zhang, and the upper part is hidden in the dark, and it is impossible to see a single cent, the stone tablet is extremely wide, about 20 zhang, the whole body is gray-black, the surface is uneven, and there seem to be a lot of filamentous things wrapped on it, floating quietly in the dark, like withered grass, but also like a thick cobweb, the light around it is too dark, and it is impossible to see whether there are words or carvings on this stone tablet.
The appearance of the stele surprised everyone.
As we all know, although the black beast is powerful and terrifying, it has not given birth to any civilization, whether it is words, pictures or carvings, in the impression of the monks of the boundary road, it is something insulated from the black beast, they can't even imagine the appearance of the black beast using weapons, but this time there is a stone tablet accompanied by the black beast army, which cannot but make them frightened.
And although the true body of the stele has been seen, the chanting voice has not yet been found.
The ember city lord stood in the darkness, the brilliant light of the holy stone armor made him as conspicuous as a torch, he stretched out his hand a little, hundreds of holy stones exploded, turned into a blazing light and flew down on the small tripod above his head, wrapping the entire tripod, his wrist moved lightly, and the small tripod immediately flew into the darkness.
Xiao Ding fell a vast white light, which completely illuminated the stone stele.
This stele is as high as a hundred feet, as vast as a mountain, but the most disturbing thing is not this stele, but the things on the stele.
The filamentous objects wrapped around the stele are neither dead grass nor spider silk, they are alive, whiskers hanging from the big guy on the top of the stele, pale red, extremely many and very long, wrapped around the whole stele, and half of the stele is hidden under these 'whiskers'.
And that big guy is the source of the chanting.
It was like a lump of soft mud, covering the entire top of the stele, and even a lot of bodies 'overflowed' out, hanging on the edge of the top of the stele, it was the same as those whiskers, it was dark red, and the body surface was full of eyes, but all of them were tightly closed, the eyelids were faintly golden, Su Qi didn't see that it had a mouth or anything like that, the chanting sound seemed to come from inside its body.
The light in the ding seemed to wake up the big guy, and the whiskers suddenly swayed, like the branches of a strong wind blowing through the treetops, and the whiskers slapped on the stone tablet one after another, and the sound of crackling was unusually permeable in the darkness.
It also began to writhe, but it looked quite difficult because of its size, but the eyes on the surface of the body began to tremble constantly, as if they would open at any moment.
"What the hell is this?"
On the bridge made of sacred stones, a monk shouted in horror, no one had ever seen such a black beast, to be precise, this kind of thing could not be called a beast at all.
It's more of a monster.
This lump of soft mud is undoubtedly the leader of the black beasts, when its long whiskers danced, the octopus-like black beasts on the dome were all agitated, they retracted their tentacles, pressed against the stones below them, held themselves high, turned their bodies, and faced Su Qi and the others, their bulging bodies kept expanding and contracting, and soon a palm-sized sucker appeared on its body, it kept trembling, and soon spewed out a large cloud of lilac liquid.
Dongfang Jiyue stepped forward, pinching the seal with both hands, and countless pale yellow brilliance condensed in the palm of his hand, "Zhenshan!"
She drank softly, and a hazy mountain shadow appeared in front of her, turning into a solid barrier to block the purple liquid that flew in.
Whoa.
The sound of corrosion was extremely harsh, and the light purple liquid was something that could even be eroded by the mountains formed by spiritual energy, and the barrier in front of Dongfang Jiyue became pitted in the blink of an eye, and it was almost burned through in serious places.
The suckers of those black beasts swayed slightly, as if they were about to spit again, but suddenly there was a low hum in the sky, they seemed to have received some kind of order, and suddenly gave up the attack, their bodies slammed, their tentacles spread out, and a light purple liquid gradually flowed from the suckers, dripping on the stones of the dome, and soon the dome was corroded.
But fortunately, this dome is not extraordinary, the white stone on the outside is just a decoration, the real dome is actually the holy stone underneath, and all the defense methods of the dome are also imprinted on this holy stone, so although the purple liquid of the black beast is very strong, it quickly erodes through the white stone, but it is blocked by the holy stone, accumulating into a puddle, like a puddle of water.
The ember city lord had already flown to the stone stele, and the small tripod returned to his hand, he tilted the tripod slightly, and a beam of white divine light flew out of it, with an endless murderous aura, shining straight towards the soft mud.
This is not an ordinary aura, but the secret art of the city lord of the ember, this pavilion of saints has always been famous for its many secret techniques, according to legend, they have collected a large number of extinct sects and races of secret techniques, hidden in their own sects, it is said that there are even ancient human races, ancient demon clans and even heavenly court exercises.
As the half-emperor of the Embers' Pavilion, the lord of the embers naturally has the qualifications to read all the secret arts, this white divine light is called Qiong Tianyin, which is a secret technique from the Heavenly Court Immortal Clan, this Qiongtian is said to be one of the nine heavens of the Heavenly Court, this technique is from the hands of the Qiongtian Immortal King, this secret technique is extremely difficult to cultivate, and it must be cultivated with a magic weapon closely connected with the monk's divine consciousness, and the monk needs to follow the method of finding exercises, condensing the divine light with spiritual energy every day, and then recuperate in the magic weapon for several years in order to refine this small beam of Qiong Tianyin with amazing lethality.
The Ember City Lord has been sitting in the Ember City for thousands of years, and no one knows how much Qiong Tianyin he has condensed, and few people have seen the power of this Qiong Tianyin with their own eyes, but there are actually quite a few people who have heard of it.
The Ember City Lord once used this technique to destroy an entire secret place.
So when the white light flew into the darkness, all the monks who witnessed it held their breath, and they seemed to be able to see the stone tablet and the soft mud on it.
But everyone was disappointed.
Not only was the stele fine, but the soft clay was also unscathed.
It opened an eye, the eyeball was pure gold, and the moment it opened, a black vortex appeared in the void, and Qiong Tian submerged into it, like a stone falling into the water, except for splashing countless waves, it did not cause any damage.
One by one, their eyes lit up, and the pale red clay seemed to be full of lanterns, and the chanting sound that had stopped suddenly sounded again, but both the tone and the atmosphere were very different from before.
This time it was more like calling for something, the sound was long, through the infinite darkness, to the end of the world.
Soon, the response came.
The buzzing sound ranged from small to loud, and there seemed to be something flapping its wings in the darkness, and there were quite a few of them.
