Chapter 96: The Death of the Soul (3)
When the stone door was fully opened, an oil lamp lit up on the wall, illuminating the entire hall as bright as day. Under the light of these dazzling fires, all the scenes in the hall were reflected in the eyes of Ivan and the old man.
The hall is very vast, and there is a conspicuous carpet in the center, which leads to a high platform in the deepest part of the hall, on which the white jade is the step, the gold and stone are the bricks, and a white crystal ball is placed that is as dazzling and attractive as a water bloom.
On both sides of the carpet, there are not only piles of small mountain bags of precious belongings, but also a variety of coveted magic materials, which are a pile of huge wealth enough to make ordinary people crazy, and anyone who sees it can't help but gasp.
But Ivan and the old man's faces did not change, but instead took dozens of steps back together, and only after he could no longer smell the pungent strange smell between his noses did Ivan slowly speak: "This room has been sealed for at least thousands of years. ”
The old man nodded in agreement and said, "It's been too long to seal, let's wait for all the gas to dissipate before we go in." ”
Both of them know this basic common sense very well, because of the lack of oxygen and the prolonged sealing of a room that is sealed for a long time, will produce a gas containing toxins. It can cause great damage to the health of an adult man's body, and even endanger his life in serious cases, not to mention a mage who is physically weak.
Although Ivan's physical fitness could ignore these poisonous gases and walk into the hall unharmed, he was not in a hurry, and it was nothing to wait for a little time.
While waiting, the spirit of the secret realm looked at the two people who were not anxious at all, and did not mind: "Boy, the white crystal ball placed on the high platform is the core that can control the entire secret realm, as long as you drip your own blood on the white crystal ball in the hall and successfully recognize the master, you can become the new master of this secret realm." ”
Ivan nodded in understanding.
After a while, Ivan suddenly asked, "Didn't you say that there are spell scrolls and secret art scrolls that that the ninth-order archmage treasured? ”
"For us mages, the value of knowledge is definitely not comparable to some external objects, and some mages value knowledge more than feelings and reputation, so it is impossible to just put it on the ground like some garbage. Without waiting for the spirit of the secret realm to speak, the old man took the lead.
"This old man is right, the master's value of knowledge is not comparable to some foreign objects, those scrolls that have been treasured by the master have been placed in a secret room in the deepest part of the Netherworld City, and even the greedy high-level leaders of your academy have not discovered it so far. Glancing coldly at the old man, the spirit of the secret realm spoke.
"If you want to get those scrolls, you only need to successfully recognize the white crystal ball, and you can use it to teleport anywhere in the secret realm, and you can turn a blind eye to any magic array and mechanism in the Netherworld City, and come and go as you please. Retracting his extremely unhappy gaze, the Spirit of the Secret Realm continued.
Ivan didn't say anything, just an oh, and sat down on the ground, not knowing what he was pondering.
In this way, time passed minute by minute, and after half a day, the old man patted Ivan on the shoulder: "Those gases should be almost dispersed, let's go in." ”
Hearing this, Ivan got up from the ground and walked into the hall with the old man, and sure enough, as the old man said, the pungent strange gases in the hall almost dissipated.
Walking down the carpet, Ivan and the old man had no attachment to the insane gold treasures, and went straight to the high platform where the white crystal ball was placed.
On the high platform, Ivan looked at the white crystal ball that was enough to make him a huge fortune, his eyes were unusually calm, there was no joy, no fanaticism, as calm as ever, as if the crystal ball placed in front of him was just an ordinary crystal ball.
"Flutter" The sound of wings flying, the spirit of the secret realm looked at Yi Ji, who had not moved, and his eyes fluctuated slightly: "Let's do it, as long as you succeed in recognizing the master, you will have a bunch of huge wealth that even high-level mages covet, from the mage apprentice to the legendary mage before this rugged road, it can be said that from now on, if the opportunity is enough, it is not impossible to become a legend." ”
After hearing the word legend, Ivan's eyes fluttered, and he seemed to be attracted by the prospect of the words of the spirit of the secret realm.
Looking at Ivan's appearance, the Spirit of the Secret Realm laughed secretly, and then said, "Do you still need to hesitate? The legend is beckoning to you in front of your future, you can't know what the legend means." It means that you will become one of the strongest people in this vast continent, hundreds of millions of creatures will surrender to your might, tens of thousands or even tens of thousands of years of life will be consumed by you, and even His Majesty the Emperor of the Jiuhua Empire will be polite when he sees you. ”
As he spoke, the spirit of the secret realm reached forward with his left paw, and the invisible space stirred up ripples, and a dagger engraved with a mysterious pattern fell from the air, just in time to be caught by Ivan.
"Do it, boy. The spirit of the Realm looked at Ivan expectantly, believing that no one could resist the temptation, one that could become legendary.
Ivan took the dagger in his hand, his fingers slid lightly over the sharp arc of the blade, and when he was about to cut his fingers, he stopped abruptly, and looked up at the spirit of the secret realm with a smile.
"Boy, what are you doing stopping?" the Spirit of the Secret Realm asked suspiciously, as if it was strange that Ivan would stop at this critical moment. ”
"Nothing, just wanted to ask you one more question. Ivan said slowly, the dagger in his hand had been put away by him.
"Is there any problem? as long as you drip blood on the crystal ball, you can become the new master of the Deathmatch Secret Realm, with vast resources and wealth for you to enjoy and consume. The spirit of the secret realm spoke in a calm and indifferent tone.
"I just don't know if the person who had everything at that time was me or not. Ivan's expression was as cold as ice, and his tone was faint mixed with a hint of sarcasm.
"What do you mean, what the hell are you talking about?" The spirit of the secret realm was still calm on the surface, but in fact, there were already huge waves in his heart, how did he know, how could he know?
"Hmph, first I used the illusion of the mirage to directly extract a trace of soul power from my soul, and now I plan to take the genetic information in my blood, ready to refine my sub-soul, and then prepare to use the sub-soul to forcibly devour my main soul, perfectly integrate this body, so that my body will not have any rejection, one of the strongest forbidden techniques tens of thousands of years ago, the rebirth technique of the son and mother, so much planning, your master is really well-intentioned. As Ivan spoke, the face of the spirit of the secret realm became more and more shocked and ugly.
"Who the hell are you? How can you possibly know?" the spirit of the secret realm said in a deep voice, how did this kid know, the forbidden technique of rebirth of the child and mother, except for those old monsters who have lived for tens of thousands of years, others may not have heard of it, and a small mage apprentice will know that it is simply a fantasy.
Ivan secretly hooked his lips and smiled, I will tell you, I have a bone-white mask on my body, and there is a perverted old man who has lived for at least tens of thousands of years and is not dead?
