Chapter 87: Where to go
Lin Dong walked cautiously at the back of the line.
Ever since he entered the Ice Palace, his state has been unstable, his eyes wandering, his steps flustered, and he stopped in a daze from time to time, muttering notes that no one could understand. If it weren't for the disciples of the Ten Thousand Beginnings Sect who strictly abided by the rules of friendship and mutual assistance and repeatedly stopped and waited, he would have been lost in the maze of many divergent paths.
He is from Lingnan, and since he was a child, because of his atavistic blood, he often hears sounds that ordinary people can't hear, such as the breath of a rock and the **** of metal. In the year of the weak crown, it was logical that he was accepted by the Qiandu Peak of the Ten Thousand Origin Sect, and Fang Fang was successfully incorporated into the team of exploring the Ice Palace. However, this luck that made the eyes of the same door turn into a complete nightmare the moment he stepped into the ice palace!
There has never been a place so quiet and warm as the Ice Palace of the North Styx, where the ears are in a state of extreme noise, and the entire palace is made of alchemical metal, and every inch of bronze is filled with a rich, almost insanely vigorous vitality.
The shouts were deafening!
Extreme fear, unspeakable fear, the quiet and silent palace in his ears, more dangerous than the lair of the demonic beast.
Suddenly, a roar floated from the depths of the darkness, and the sound was like the first roar of an ancient demonic beast awakening.
Roar β
The roar that was enough to make people tremble and make Lin Dong Dantian feel a faint pain, and Zhuji Xiuwei was still so frightened that he couldn't move, and what was even more sad was that none of the people who traveled with him could hear his world, which was a despair that only he could hear.
The bronze palace has awakened.
He heard it roar, and the behemoth woke up from a long sleep, and they would be its first sacrifices!
But who will believe him, who will hear the same voice?
Who would have believed that the silent palace was silently turning into a demonic beast and opening its bloody mouth, and every step it took could be ...... Fall......
"Ahh
He screamed in distraction, his mind bent by extreme nervousness and fear, and only shouting could loosen his tense nerves a little: "Everyone, stop quickly, don't go any further......! It's alive, just now, it's ...... It's coming to life! It's going to ...... us. Swallow it all!"
Sadly, no one could hear the same voice, and his warning was rightfully met with contempt.
"Lin Daring, who is worthy of Qiandu Peak", "I heard that he still wets the bed when he was in his twenties", "How can he be so timid that he can be included in the team"...... Laughter like this rang out low in the ranks of torches, and fortunately, Lin Dong, who was in the center of the embarrassment, could no longer hear anything other than the roar of hell at the moment.
Squeak Cack Ca β
The sound of sharp claws sliding across the bottom of the pot.
Hiss la-la-la-
The sound of a metal tongue sucking the cerebral cord.
The sound of the sound aroused the most instinctive fear in the depths of his memory, and tens of thousands of years ago, his ancestors had been ruled by the creatures that made these terrible sounds, so he was so frightened that his whole body shivered with fear when he heard it.
Looking around, frightened, trembling, he looked helplessly around, the dark world realm, surging with desperate malice.
β...... It...... Coming soon...... ......Ahh It's coming soon!ahhh
Crying and laughing, he cried and screamed, and after dancing and dancing, he collapsed to the ground, and a foul-smelling yellow and white liquid flowed from under his body......
......
......
The strange commotion in the rear made Shen Tian decisively stop the group, separated his curious companions, and walked to Lin Dong's side.
The smell of fishy smell made him frown, but compared to the fishy smell, it was Lin Dong's state that was more worrying.
He carefully bent down, held Lin Dong's trembling shoulders, and forced him to look into his eyes: "...... What did you hear? Something is coming?"
ββIn order to let Lin Dong, who was in a trance, hear the question clearly, he even attached a little spiritual power to his voice.
Lin Dong, who was stung by the spiritual power and was temporarily awake from his mental state, raised his head, and his distracted eyes shocked Shen Tian.
β...... Palace...... is alive, bronze is alchemical metal...... They...... Living ......" lips opened and closed blankly, and every character spat out was absurd and terrifying, "and though you laugh at my cowardice and cowardice, believe me, this palace is more terrible than we can imagine...... The once-in-a-millennium wide opening is a terrible trap, and it ...... The palace is alive, it awakens once in a thousand years, it is very hungry, and we are the blood it desperately needs......"
β...... Bloody ...... Alchemy Metal ......" Shen Tian didn't laugh at Lin Dong's absurdity, and his prudence allowed him to quickly grasp the key and ask, "What do you mean-"
"My ears can hear sounds that aren't there. You think that the labyrinth of tranquility is actually full of **** of the dead...... Ahh
Screaming, Lin Dong, who was already on the verge of collapse, suddenly widened his eyes, and then the whites of his eyes rolled, and he fainted in fright.
Shen Tian reached out and probed his breathing, chaotic and faint.
The situation was unexpectedly tricky.
As early as when he was appointed as the leader of this mission, Shen Tian had already dutifully read the information of each member, and he knew nothing about Lin Dong's abilities. Although Shen Tian was extremely dissatisfied with the ugliness of the **** in public, when Lin Dong spit out the secret of the Alchemy Metal Palace, which was only known to a few people in the Ten Thousand Beginnings Sect, his expression suddenly became serious.
Almost every disciple of the Ten Thousand Beginnings Sect can deduce that there are many divergent paths in the Bronze Palace after carefully reading the records of the sect entering and leaving the Bronze Palace, and there will be subtle changes every once in a while, and when entering the treasure hunt, they cannot completely rely on the maps left by the previous generations. But only the smartest of them would have deduced that the path of the palace would always change, because the entire ice palace was made of alchemical metal!
It is a living palace!
Different from the machine spirits produced by long-term warmth and mental communication, the life given to metal by the exercise technique of alchemy metal, which has been lost for nearly 10,000 years, is almost exactly the same life as all things in the Heavenly Dao, they will grow, think, breathe, and age...... Will cultivate!
If the alchemy metal can be reproduced, even the most declining sect will develop and grow into a behemoth within a hundred years. Therefore, every time the people of the Wanshi Sect entered the Bronze Palace, the team leader was burdened with a top-secret task: to find the inheritance of alchemy metal and take it for himself!
And the great opening once in a thousand years is the best opportunity.
It was just absurd muttering in the ears of ordinary people, which made Shen Tian see the light of hope, and he immediately ordered his junior disciples to move Lin Dong away, and he stood in Lin Dong's position, kneeling on the ground with the stench, trying to get more clues through profiling.
However, because he could not hear the breath of metal, he got nothing but a strong stench in the darkness, and the rumble of the gears was terrifyingly clear in his ears.
Gears β
The heartstrings tightened suddenly, Shen Tian stood up and said sharply: "Fire!"
At the sound of an order, the companions either took out the fire fold or sparked in their palms, and the sparkling lights turned the dark space into a bright night sky.
So, Shen Tian froze, his mouth was big enough to fit three eggs......
This...... How can it be!
Although it has long been known that the palace is alive and the road changes every once in a while, this time it is also ...... It's too big!
The five hanging bridges that had just passed half an hour ago evaporated silently, and in front of him was a huge bronze gate, and behind him was a cluster of cliffs. Silently, all roads are blocked, there is no way forward, and there is no way back.
But none of that matters anymore.
He lowered his head, the solid floor disappeared without a trace at some point, the dotted passages hung leisurely above the dark red abyss, the scorching heat wave rolled in, the huge molten pool rolled flames, the solid bronze became fragile and decayed, and from time to time there were Daoists below screaming and falling, and they were swallowed up by the molten pool in an instant!
"Ahh
"Help!"
"No!"
......
The screams came and went, and the sudden death frightened the young disciples of the Ten Thousand Origin Sect who could only hold on to the railing and gasp vigorously.
In the face of hell, all words are pale, even Shen Tian's heart is also grasped by fear: Lin Dong is not lying, the North Stygian Ice Palace is really alive, it has awakened, and the intruders are its food, and they will all be cruelly devoured by it!
It would be easier if he was trapped in the monster's body at the moment, Shen Tian thought bitterly. The Northern Stygian Ice Palace has already banned countless people, and most of the sect's spells cannot be cast. What's more, he suddenly turned into a hideous monster at this moment, sparing Shen Tian's rich experience in dealing with the enemy, and he was just as helpless.
Since entering the Ten Thousand Origin Sect, he had never been so embarrassed.
But he didn't dare to be noticed panicked, he was the leader of the team, and his younger brothers and sisters were watching him, he had to be calm and make them believe that everything was under the control of the sect!
Thinking of this, he stood up with his hands on the railing.
The passage was a little crumbling, the bronze balustrade was covered with green rust, and from the depths of the abyss burst out of the pillar of fire, which could be licked at any moment. Shen Tian calmly looked at the panicked junior brothers and sisters: "Although this change happened suddenly, it was expected by the sect. You all put away your fears, calm down, follow me, there will be no danger!"
Speaking of this, he deliberately paused again, and said in a deep voice: "If someone disrupts the plan regardless of discipline and causes the same door to fall into danger, he will not be spared!"
"Yes!"
The stocky corridor suddenly turned into a crumbling ropeway, and everyone was in the same panic, not to mention Lin Dong's hissing and lung-splitting shouts in front of him. But since Wan Shi Sect is the leader of the Xiuzhen Alliance, which of the inner disciples is not an elite figure who has been selected by thousands of people. The elites are inevitably proud, and the more the crisis, the stronger the pride in their hearts, they firmly believe that they are the pride of the Heavenly Dao, and they firmly believe that all bad luck is the prelude to the creation given by the Heavenly Dao.
Because of this belief, seeing the Ice Palace turn into a sea of fire, the Daoists of other sects fell into the furnace and turned into ashes, but they were still able to meticulously carry out Shen Tian's orders, draw their swords, and insert the rusted bronze to ensure that the ropeway was solid for a longer time.
Shen Tian walked quickly to the front of the team.
Raising the sword in his left hand and raising his eyebrows, he pinched the Frost and Snow Sword Technique in his right hand, the golden essence blood fell from the center of his eyebrows, and his eyes flashed with murderous consciousness.
Chop!
With a light click, the long sword flew out, bringing up countless clear lights.
Whoop -
With a sword move that exhausted almost all of his strength, the scorching flames were instantly rolled into tens of millions of fragments, and the seemingly indestructible bronze giant gate was twisted out of a large hole as high as a person, and the crumbs fell like eggshells.
Whew-
When the sword returned to his hand, there were countless gaps in the cold and frosty sword, as if it had been bitten by an ancient beast. But Shen Tian didn't have time to feel sorry for Ai Jian, he knew that this place was weird beyond expectations, so he could only suppress the tumbling blood qi and say to the junior brothers and sisters behind him: "Go!"
Let's go through the giant cave first.
