Chapter 18: Stone Terrace, Ancient Corpse, Old Ghost
"The First Heavenly ...... of the Condensation Realm"
Xiao Bai was stunned, still feeling a burst of disbelief. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
What was once an unattainable luxury was so easily achieved?
He touched his smooth and delicate face, and the raised hand couldn't help but fall between his eyebrows.
That one finger.
In a trance, he seemed to see the finger that poked out of the darkness again, the finger that was in the center of his eyebrows.
Is that him?
Xiao Bai remembered the man who stood in the ancient city with the towering mountains of Yuanyu Mountain, the man who had talked to the white wolf across endless time and space.
Is this the real power of the demon clan that stands up to the sky and the earth?
See all three lives at a glance, and change life and death with one finger!
What an unpredictable realm!
Xiao Bai's heart was full of awe and gratitude, and for a while, he only felt that it was not so surprising that he suddenly increased many attributes.
He stood up excitedly, patted the dust that had fallen on his body, and looked ahead.
The enclosed stone chamber had weathered and vanished by the time he awoke, and what appeared in front of him was a long stone staircase that went straight down into the darkness.
Xiao Bai walked up the stone steps, his steps were light.
With the improvement of his physical attributes, he found that he was in better shape than ever.
His mind is clear, his physical strength is abundant, his mana runs automatically in his body, and his spiritual sense seems to have completely broken through the shackles of his body, even if he closes his eyes, he can clearly "see" everything in the three feet around him. You can't open your eyes, in this dark place.
As he went deeper, the darkness around him became deeper and deeper, Xiao Bai had already closed his eyes, and completely relied on his spiritual sense to explore the way, and under his feet were the stone steps that were unchanged and descending.
Xiao Bai tried to concentrate his mana on various parts of his body like the rest of the hunting team, and continued to go deeper into the darkness without hurrying. When he was completely familiar with his body, he found that he had arrived at a lonely stone platform.
The stone platform was square, hanging in mid-air, and only the stone staircase that hung down was connected to its corner, and Xiao Bai came down the stone steps.
The stone platform is surrounded by a white light that seems to come from the special stones that make up the stone platform, creating a place of light in this dark place.
The stone platform was empty in Xiao Bai's spiritual sense, and then he opened his eyes and saw a corpse with his naked eyes.
An ancient corpse.
Wearing a gilded robe, wearing a purple and gold crown, stepping on lotus silk and walking clouds, his face is strange.
This is a Taoist who closes his eyes and sleeps. The strange appearance is not angry but mighty, but it has lost its vitality forever, and only that heavy momentum silently tells the greatness of the master's life.
The vicissitudes of time are coming.
Name: Xiao Xuanji
Race: Terran
Age: 129,600 years old
Rank: Tier 10
Status: Dead!
"You're here. The old man's hoarse voice suddenly sounded on this stone platform, startling Xiao Bai, who was immersed in shock.
He heard the sound of his heart beating violently in fear, and a terrifying thought came to his mind.
"Tricked corpse?!"
It took all his strength to suppress the urge to flee, Xiao Bai shouted loudly at the darkness around the stone platform in a trembling voice: "Who, who is pretending to be a ghost?"
His palms were stained with sweat, and he was almost unsteady on his feet, when he heard the old voice coming from behind him.
"I've been standing here. ”
Xiao Bai's hairs stood up, and he jumped forward all of a sudden, reaching the edge of the stone platform, and then dared to turn around slowly and look at the place where he was standing.
An illusory translucent old man was standing there quietly, his face full of wrinkles left by the years, and his eyes of wisdom that had been trained by the years were looking at Xiao Bai with a smile.
This damn Psionic!
Xiao Bai scolded in his heart, he thought that the lofty spiritual sense had failed twice in a short period of time in this ghost place, and he was still complacent about this immortal-like ability!
"Former ...... Predecessor. Xiao Bai felt that he was talking in knots, and his tongue no longer seemed to belong to him.
The old man smiled kindly and said, "It's good that you can successfully walk out of the place where the soul shines." ”
It's like praising his own child, and the old man's kindness and relief are beyond words.
Xiao Bai inexplicably calmed down, and the fear in his heart dissipated.
"Where the mind sees?" Xiao Bai muttered and asked, "Is it the closed stone room?"
The old man shook his head slightly, and his tone was melancholy: "Yes and no." Some people will see mountains, rivers and seas, some people will see the sun, moon and stars, and some people will not see anything, but as long as they can't recognize their hearts, they can only be trapped in it. ”
"It's not an exaggeration to say that it's a closed stone chamber. ”
"Then its function is to help people reshape the immortal root?" Xiao Bai asked cautiously.
"Haha," the old man smiled heartily, his translucent body was blurry and unstable for a while, but he didn't care, "You don't have to be tempted, I can tell you clearly, what the White Demon King told you is basically fake!"
Xiao Bai was stunned for a moment, and didn't react for a long time: "It's all fake?"
Nima, was co-authored by this son tricked in?
"Nine falsehoods and one truth. The old man's wrinkles trembled, and his smile became more and more obvious, "But for you now, you can take it as real." ”
What does this mean? Xiao Bai looked at the old man with a confused expression.
"Then, what does one of the nine false and one true refer to?" Xiao Bai asked with some reluctance.
The old man restrained his smile, and his cloudy eyes revealed a trace of pity that Xiao Bai could not detect.
"Regarding your identity and position, what the White Demon King said is indeed no problem. The old man sighed lightly and continued, "Actually, this is easy to understand, even the demons born in the ancestral land of the human race are naturally regarded as members of the human race. It's not about blood, race, it's just an innate position. ”
"You don't have to be depressed, the identity of the demon clan is quite good. ”
Seeing Xiao Bai's extremely disappointed expression, the old man added the last sentence. Xiao Bai was a little depressed, thinking that the peak was turning around, but who knew that it was just Bai happy.
"Then the Great Sage of the Demon Clan in the mouth of the White Demon King does not exist, and the Inheritance Cave Mansion does not exist?" Xiao Bai was puzzled, "Then what did he send me in?"
"You still didn't understand what I said. The old man shook his head, "What the White Demon King said is nine false and one true to me, but to you, it is all true. ”
"Is it because of the different heights you are at and the scenery you see is naturally different?" Xiao Bai asked tentatively, almost confused by this old man who looked more like a ghost than a human.
The old man smiled and said nothing, his translucent illusory body floating at the junction of the stone staircase and this stone platform, looking a little infiltrating.
It's a pity that there is nowhere to run.
Xiao Bai glanced at the empty edge of the stone platform, and felt helpless, so he had to muster up the courage to continue the unfinished topic.
At least the old man can't see malice for the time being, does he?
Looking at the blank data panel, Xiao Bai comforted himself in bitterness.
"Could it be that the White Demon King really sent me in to ambush the Swallowing Heaven Peak, and then break the seal?" Xiao Bai stretched his tense body and regained his composure.
"Oh," the old man pointed to the ancient corpse sitting in the middle of the stone platform, "do you see this corpse?"
"Nonsense. Xiao Bai rolled his eyes, but he didn't dare to say this, he just muttered in his heart, and waited for the old man's next words.
"That's not nonsense. The old man smiled, but the words he said made Xiao Bai's scalp tingle, "Ordinary people can't see this corpse." ”
Can these old monsters directly feel the thoughts in my heart? Xiao Bai's face was expressionless, but he was complaining frantically in his heart. The White Demon King is like this, and the White Deer seems to be able to do the same, and now this weird old man who is obviously not a human also has this ability. For a moment, he was a little skeptical, could he really be in this world? Even a fleeting thought could not escape the eyes of these monsters, and he had no secrets in front of them!
The old man looked at Xiao Bai with a smile, ignored the chatter in his heart, and continued to talk to himself.
"This corpse is the purpose of the White Demon King to let you down, you have to carry him on your back. ”
For a moment, Xiao Bai felt a great malice emanating from the ancient corpse, pressing on his heart, and a deadly sense of threat suddenly appeared.
He seemed to see the ancient corpse sitting with his back to him trembling slightly!
A man who has been dead for I don't know how long, but who has lived for a full 129,600 years before he died!
In the world before he crossed over, an ancient kingdom went from being born, to rising, to becoming strong, to decaying, decaying, and then repeating this process until it collapsed, and the time it took was extremely difficult to pass the long years of 10,000 years!
This kind of great power can be called a witness to the history of civilization! I am afraid that he has witnessed more than one history of civilization!
And now, this old man with an illusory and transparent body asked him to carry the corpse of this Terran powerhouse on his back.
Xiao Bai felt that his body and mind were trembling, if he could carry it, why didn't the White Demon King come down and carry it himself? Who knows what hidden dangers this corpse has?
In the fantasy world, there are more cases of deceiving corpses, and in other worlds, a corpse can destroy an immortal cultivator!
This kind of ancient corpse that is obviously a generation of great power, if he goes to carry it, won't he die in a minute......
Don't carry it even if you kill it!
Xiao Bai shook his head and stood there motionless, but he had made up his mind in his heart. He has been pitted by the white wolf a few times, and this time he will not be easily fooled.
"Hey......
The sound of oozing laughter echoed on the stone platform, and even the white light could not stop Xiao Bai's inner panic.
"What are you worried about?"
At this moment, the old man's tone was indescribably gloomy and full of malice in Xiao Bai's ears.
"At least you'll be safe until you carry this corpse on your back, and the White Demon King won't sit idly by and watch you die before your goal is achieved. Besides, he's not a ruthless man who can unload a mill and kill a donkey!"
Of course, the White Demon King is not a ruthless person, because people are demons, not people!
Xiao Bai wailed in his heart, but he had to walk towards the ancient corpse sitting on the stone platform step by step in fear under the old man's fierce gaze.
The stone platform was surrounded by an endless void, and the only place connected to the stone staircase was occupied by that strange old man, Xiao Bai had no choice but to reach out and grab the ancient corpse, praying for the blessing of the White Demon King in his heart.
After all, what the old man said was reasonable, since the White Demon King sent him down, he must protect his life before achieving his goal.
Xiao Bai's right hand was lightly placed on the ancient corpse's shoulder, trembling slightly. An icy black line quickly stretched upwards from the ancient corpse's shoulder along Xiao Bai's right hand.
Xiao Bai's face changed, his whole body trembled violently and he couldn't break free from the ancient corpse, and wisps of white frost appeared on his body.
The temperature of the stone platform dropped sharply.
