Chapter 52: The Secret Passage of Shadows
I don't know what is going on in the depths of the cave, but the outside of the cave is covered with that bloodthirsty huge plant, so everyone can only go to the depths of the cave, and there is no other choice.
The cave was very spacious, more than two feet wide, and the further down you went, the slope of the cave became more gentle, and finally a layer of steps made of black stone appeared, leading to the depths of the cave.
"There are actually steps here, it seems that this place is probably not that simple!" Yu Qing's eyes suddenly became solemn, and he said in a somewhat low tone.
Pu Tiange squatted down and touched the black stone steps on the ground with his fingers, and soon he noticed that something was wrong.
"Well, how can this step be so clean, not a little dust?"
When the others heard Pu Tiange say this, they also squatted down to check the black stone steps on the ground, and sure enough, as Pu Tiange said, the black stone steps on the ground were very smooth and clean, without a trace of dust.
It's strange that this place must have been through endless years, so old and unimaginably old that it was covered with a thick layer of dust, but in fact it was clean and free of dirt.
"Could it be that this place is inhabited, so it can't be cleaned often?" Yu Fengqi frowned, he was taken aback by his own speculation, if it was really as he said, it was really appalling.
"I don't know, if it's really the same as you say, then we still don't want to go down. Yu Shixin shook his head, he thought it was unlikely, this place was too old, after endless years, I am afraid that no living creature could live so long.
Putiange didn't speak, but reached out and grabbed a handful of dust from the ground outside the steps, and then sprinkled the dust on the black stone steps.
An astonishing scene appeared, when the dust was about to fall on the black stone steps, suddenly a grain of dust was bounced away by an invisible force, and disappeared into the void in a blink of an eye.
Everyone was startled and hurriedly took a few steps back, their eyes full of horror.
"No wonder there is not a speck of dust on it, it turns out that this black stone step can bounce away all unclean things. ”
Putian Ge muttered to himself, looking thoughtfully at the black stone steps, he knew that the stone quality of this step was probably very special, and it should not be made of ordinary stone.
"Even the dust can bounce off, I don't know if it will bounce us off. Yu Qing raised his leg and wanted to give it a try, but was stopped by Putian Ge.
"I think this step will only bounce off dead things, and it won't work on living beings, otherwise we would have bounced off when we touched it. Pu Tiange shook his head at Yu Qing and said with great certainty.
"Well, that makes sense, it doesn't seem like this step poses much of a threat to us. Yu Shixin said.
"I'm just worried about whether this step will be repulsive to the divine power............ Putiange told the crowd about his worries.
"It's okay, it's a big deal that we don't need divine power. Yu Shixin said disappreciatively.
"No, it matters. Pu Tiange looked serious, paused, and then continued.
"If the steps are repelled by divine powers, then we will not be able to use them on the steps, which means that we will be helpless no matter what danger we encounter on the steps. ”
As he spoke, Pu Tiange gathered his divine power in his left hand, only to see a stream of brilliant light rise, illuminating the darkness and circulating in his palm.
"So if this step is repelled by divine power, it can be fatal to us. ”
Pu Tiange slowly placed the palm that gathered divine power on the black stone steps, and there was no abnormal situation after the palm touched the steps, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
It seems that this black stone staircase does not repel the divine power, which is a good thing for everyone.
"This step is supposed to be only a rejection of unclean things, and it has no effect on divine power. Yu Qing's hanging heart finally let go, and when Pu Tiange released his divine power on the steps just now, he couldn't help but be a little nervous.
"It's me who is too worried, let's go on, maybe we can find a way out from the depths of the cave. "The main thing now is to find a way to the earth, otherwise you will have to wait for death in this cave.
It was very dark in the cave, but Putiange did not use his divine power to illuminate it, because the darkness was also a good cover, and if there was really an enemy, then using divine power to illuminate it would only expose everyone's whereabouts.
Moreover, all of them were cultivators, and their eyesight was extraordinary, and they could see the outline of the cave even in the dark.
Everyone walked down the black stone steps towards the depths of the cave, and they couldn't see clearly more than a dozen feet in front of them, so everyone was cautious, for fear that something would suddenly change ahead.
The walls of the cave on both sides became more and more flat, and even some rough potholes disappeared, like two solid walls, and as everyone went deeper, the hole began to narrow, and the width of the cave shrank from two zhang to one and a half zhang.
When everyone reached the end of the blackstone steps, the slope of the cave disappeared completely, and in front of them was a neat and flat ground that stretched into the depths of the cave.
Moreover, the walls of the cave on both sides have also become walls made of stone bricks, each brick is very large, the color is gray, and the surface is extremely smooth, and it looks like it has a heavy feeling.
This should be an artificially built tunnel, old, filled with the vicissitudes of time, although I don't know where this tunnel leads, but I want to come to the place where this tunnel leads will not be so simple.
Putiange slowly walked into the tunnel, and then the others followed, following behind Putiange and walking towards the tunnel, everyone connected in a straight line and walked forward in the tunnel.
Suddenly, Pu Tiange stopped, then turned his head and waved his hand to Yu Qing and the others behind him, signaling everyone to come over.
"What's wrong?" Yu Qing came to Pu Tiange's side, a little puzzled.
"Look ahead. ”
Pu Tiange turned sideways so that everyone could see the scenery in front of them, and soon everyone saw that there was a quaint stone gate standing more than ten zhang away in front of them.
This stone gate is very large, the stone is gray, very heavy, revealing a majestic charm, which makes people feel a little depressed, as if it can shock people's hearts.
"Let's go and take a look, be careful, this place is unusual. Yu Qing said.
"That's right, I've always felt that there's something remarkable behind this stone gate. ”
When everyone approached the quaint stone gate, they were surprised to find that the surface of the stone gate was as smooth as a mirror, without the slightest pothole, and there was no gap except for the crack in the door.
"It's strange, except that it's very smooth, this stone gate looks so rudimentary. ”
"Not only is there not a trace of grain on the stone door, but there is also no knocker, and there is not even a plaque above the stone door, this stone door is so simple that it is a little abnormal, it looks like two stone slabs. ”
Yu Fengqi was very puzzled, no matter how you look at this stone gate, there is something wrong, even if it is an ordinary stone gate, it will not be so shabby, it is really difficult to guess.
"Stand back. Pu Tiange's eyes were solemn, and he slowly put his hands on the stone door.
"What are you going to do?"
Everyone was stunned by Pu Tiange's actions, even if he wanted to push open the stone door, he didn't have to be in such a hurry, right? If there was really any danger behind the door, it would be a big trouble.
"We're going to open this stone gate sooner or later, so it's better to do it now. ”
Pu Tiange slowly exerted his strength, wanting to push open this stone gate, but unfortunately, no matter how he exerted his strength, this stone gate still stood still, as if it had taken root.
Suddenly, his eyes brightened, his body was surrounded by divine light, the void burned, and his arms burst out with infinite force, exerting it on the stone gate, only to see that his palms formed an invisible domain field, shrouded in all directions.
Finally, the stone door was loosened, and the gap was getting bigger and bigger.
Silently, the stone door was slowly pushed open, Pu Tiange pushed very hard, he used almost all his strength to push this stone door open, it really made him a little weak.
After pushing open the stone gate, Pu Tiange took a few steps back, and then watched the situation inside the stone gate vigilantly.
The inside of the stone gate is very wide, and the ground is paved with a flat square brick, each of which is huge and has a dark green color. And it was very empty, and there was nothing in it.
Looking into the depths, you can see a faint mist, if there is nothing, faintly looming, floating there, as if from the breath of the underworld, very weird.
The space inside the stone gate is very large, and there is no end in sight.
"Tiange, you have the best eyesight, can you see what's inside?" Yuqing turned to Putiange and asked.
"There's nothing in there, but I don't know what's in the depths. ”
Pu Tiange muttered, there was nothing in his field of vision except the green bricks on the ground, but if he wanted to be sure that there was anything else, he had to go in and take a look.
"I'll go in first. After finishing speaking, Pu Tiange lowered his body and cautiously walked into the stone gate.
After entering the stone gate, Pu Tiange exhausted his eyes to look at the surrounding scene, and he found that this place was even more empty than what he saw outside the stone gate, and everything around him was empty, and there was nothing.
Putiange looked around again, but found no danger, and then he called everyone in.
"What the hell is this place? How can it be so weird?" After seeing the surrounding environment clearly, Yu Qing was a little surprised, to say that this is a tomb, it is not like, to say that this is an underground altar, it is even more unlikely, it is really a bit unbelievable.
"It's a little weird to be empty here, it's impossible to build such a large space, you can't put nothing, right?" Yu Shixin was a little puzzled, he wanted to go and see from afar, but was stopped by Pu Tiange.
"Don't be presumptuous, we don't know the situation here, it's better to be careful. ”
Pu Tiange said to Yu Shixin, although his knowledge is very wide, but he still can't understand the layout here, you must know that even if it is some prehistoric tombs, he can also understand a little bit or two, just like the last time the tomb of Yituo, he can figure out the mystery, but this time he is completely confused, which makes him feel a little bottomless.
He couldn't even figure out what it was for, and I was afraid that the mystery here was not something he could figure out.
"It's really evil, I guess there should be something in the depths, otherwise if there is nothing, this is unreasonable. Yu Shixin was stopped by Putian Ge, so he had to give up and looked ahead uneasily.
"The key is how to find a way out, and if we can't find a way out, I'm afraid we'll be stuck here. Yu Qing lowered his head and pondered, he was a little worried, if there was only the same way here when everyone came, it would not be good.
"It's useless for us to think too much, we might as well move on. Yu Fengqi sighed helplessly, now everyone has no way to retreat, so they can only move forward.
There was no way, after talking for a while, everyone continued to walk forward, and everyone could only see the endless green bricks on the ground stretching forward, as if there was no end.
Pu Tiange noticed that the dome of this place was very high, at least about ten zhang, and the dome was also paved with a layer of dark green square bricks, which was exactly the same as the green bricks on the ground.
This place is so quirky and it feels very wrong, if anything.
It was monotonous, uncanny monotonous, as if everything different in it had been emptied, leaving only an empty patch, nothing........................
