Chapter 39: The Passage
Bang Bang –
With a loud bang, the heavy gate of the Demon Palace suddenly closed. The four of Duanmuyi were immersed in the joy of completing the task, and this sudden change made the four of them a little at a loss.
Endless bloody aura gushed out from the countless doors and windows of the palace on all sides, and even the chimneys, and in an instant, the entire palace became bloody. The smell of decay and decay poured into the snorts of the four people.
"Don't panic, everyone quickly hold up the true qi mask." Duanmu Yi shouted, and Bing'er, Ghost Lao, and Huang Ji reacted, and they all transported their true qi, condensed a true qi cover, and protected themselves.
The moment everyone's true qi shield condensed, countless blood arrows shot towards the four of them. The four of them kept making a crackling sound above the true qi shield, which was extremely similar to the sound of a torrential rain knocking on the window, and in just an instant, the blood rain stopped, and there was no longer crackling on the cover, and everyone's true qi shield was dyed blood red, unable to see through the outside of the hood.
Duanmu Yi was strong in his true qi, and washed away all the blood and water outside the hood, and the moment he saw the outside world, he couldn't help but feel numb in his scalp. In front of him stood a series of blood-colored transparent figures, almost the same as the patrol monsters that had been attacked and killed before.
In all directions, densely packed, the four of Duanmuyi were surrounded in the center.
"Kill!" Duanmu Yi shouted, and took the lead in rushing out, his hand rose and fell, like the wind sweeping the leaves, and every move would sweep a piece. However, the blood-colored transparent figure did not decrease, but the more they fought, after each blood-colored transparent figure was smashed, the fragments would turn into a new one, but the cultivation power was lower than before.
Bing'er used the jade flute swordsmanship, and the sword qi was vertical and horizontal, invincible.
Huang Ji used the Flame Sword Technique, and the Clear Fire Sword flew up and down, and countless sword shadows swept down, like a crazy lawnmower, harvesting the blood-colored transparent figure in front of him.
The ghost old man has a judge's pen, the dragon flies and the phoenix dances, the iron hook and silver stroke, as if the judge is coming, and the blood-colored transparent figures in front of him are invincible.
The four of them fought non-stop, but the blood-colored transparent figures were like the waves of the sea, wave after wave, as if they were endless, although the cultivation level of these blood-colored transparent figures was not high, and they were only the first and second orders of the Qi Refining Realm, and occasionally there were those with high cultivation levels, but they were only the fifth order of the Qi Refining Realm, but the number was infinite.
The true qi in the dantian of the four people was boiling, and their combat power was almost fully opened.
"Big brother, this is not a solution!" The ghost elder killed the blood-colored transparent figure in front of him while approaching Duanmu Yi.
"In the opinion of a virtuous brother?" Duanmu Yidao.
"You can't fight, you can only outwit the enemy. When our true qi is exhausted, it is our time of death. "Hell-old way.
"I naturally know this truth, but the current monster is inexhaustible, and there is no end in sight, let alone finding the source." Duanmu Yidao. As he spoke, he punched a blood-colored transparent figure of a fifth-order Qi Refining Realm cultivator who rushed up into a blood mist.
"Duan'er, think about it, what happened when we were controlled by the Brain Gu Worm before? Maybe it has something to do with the situation at this time. Bing'er also moved closer to Duanmu Yi, the jade flute in her hand did not stop for a moment, and the sword qi was like water, endless.
"It's nothing, you suddenly attacked and killed me, I had no choice but to send you into the ring space, and then I killed the ancient demon prince, and when I look at you again, you have all recovered your senses." Duanmu Yi briefly described the situation at that time.
"Big brother, did you miss any details?" The ghost old man said while killing.
Duanmu Yi said: "That's basically it, there's nothing left." ”
"Could it have something to do with that brain Gu Qi worm?" The old ghost said suspiciously.
"You say." Duanmu Yi said, wielding a scimitar in his hand.
"When we didn't see the ancient demon prince, the three of us didn't go crazy, after seeing the ancient demon prince, we suddenly launched an attack on you, as soon as the ancient demon prince died, we regained our clarity, I guess this ancient demon prince is the key." The ghost elder analyzed.
Duanmu Yi said: "I also thought this point was weird, it is estimated that the Gu poison on our body had been planted before we met the Ancient Demon Prince. ”
"That's right, we haven't touched anything, except for the patrolmen, and then the monster leader." Ghost old way.
"When you say that, I remember, when the monster leader was killed by me, four blood-red shadows flashed away, and they must have entered our bodies, but what entered my body was forcibly refined by me." Duanmu Yidao.
"Big brother, you killed the ancient demon prince, is there anything left behind of that guy." Ghost Elder asked.
"Yes, though." Duanmu Yi's mind moved, a horizontal eye opened on his forehead, and his whole face became very weird. "Look, it's this Ancient Demon Eye." As soon as the ghost elder's gaze made contact with the demon eye, his whole body shook violently, and he hurriedly moved his gaze away, not daring to look again.
"It is estimated that this magic eye can overcome these blood-transparent monsters." Ghost old way.
"But I don't know how." Duanmu Yidao. As he spoke, he focused all his thoughts on the Ancient Demon Eye, which moved left and right, glowing with a faint green light. Duanmu Yi looked at the blood-colored transparent figure around him, and those monsters retreated, not daring to attack again.
"There's a door!" Duanmu Yile said. I don't know how to enhance the effect.
I was about to try my true qi on the Ancient Demon Eye, when I suddenly thought of the illusion when I fought with the Ancient Demon Prince, yes, the transparent mysterious power in the tornado vortex might be useful.
Duanmu Yi slowly carried the Ten Thousand Demon Dynasty Sect Recipe, and the black-gray tornado vortex rose from around his body, Duanmu Yi tried to communicate the transparent mysterious power with the Ancient Demon Eye.
Wow –
The glow shines. The blood-colored transparent figures in front of him melted one after another like ice and fire.
The old ghost said: "Big brother, it's really useful." ”
Duanmu Yi gradually strengthened the absorbing power of the Ten Thousand Demon Dynasty Sect, and that transparent mysterious power was completely integrated into the Ancient Demon Eye, and the Ancient Demon Eye instantly came alive, as if Duanmu Yi was born with it.
Duanmu Yi controlled the Ancient Demon Eye, taking in all the blood-colored transparent figures, and his mind moved slightly, "Close!" ”
In an instant, the blood-colored transparent figures dissipated, blended into the void, and disappeared
In the palace, there was no more blood, and it was restored to its original appearance.
The four of them searched the inside and outside of the Demon Palace, but found nothing.
In a side hall, Duanmu Yi stood in front of a wall, looking intently at the murals on the wall, thoughtful.
"Duan'er, what do you want? Bing'er walked up to Duanmu Yi and said.
"I'm thinking about the Brain Gu Worm, I always feel that this Brain Gu Worm has something to do with the Corpse Blood Divine Soldier. Look at this picture. Duanmuyi pointed to the mural on the wall.
The mural depicts the sunrise over the sea, a fiery red ball, surrounded by red lines, some straight, some meandering, and the red ball is surrounded by endless waves, as if under the reflection of the sun, flashing red glow.
Bing'er looked at the mural, and at first glance it was peaceful and quiet. Looking closely, I feel very weird, but I can't say a thing or two.
"What are you looking at?" The ghost old man saw Duanmu Yi and Bing'er facing a mural in a daze, so he also came over.
Bing'er said: "Brother ghost, look, is there anything wrong with this painting in front of you?" ”
"Something wrong?" The ghost elder took a closer look at it and said, "Do you think this is a picture of Hairi?" ”
"Isn't it?" Bing'er said.
"I don't think so." Ghost old way.
"Blood Fetus!" Duanmu Yi said in a daze.
"What did you say?" Bing'er said.
"That red sun could be a blood fetus!" Duanmu Yi said, "It's possible, the blood pool under the Demon Palace where we are located is the source of the Brain Gu Worm. ”
The ghost elder carefully observed the murals on the wall, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that Duanmu Yi made sense.
"We must find a way out of this demon palace, enter the blood pool, and find out." Duanmu Yidao.
"But the palace gate is closed, how can I get out?" Huang Jidao.
"I guess this demon palace must have a mechanism that leads to the blood pool below, or some mechanism that can absorb the energy in the blood pool, otherwise, it would be impossible to suspend above this blood pool like this." Bing'er said.
"It's a light thing to say, but we've searched inside and outside this demon palace, and we haven't found anything at all, so there's no mechanism." Huang Ji said dejectedly, sitting down on an old circle chair.
Squeak –
A few crunch sounds, as if a mechanism had been activated. Huang Ji pressed his hands on the armrests, and his body instantly ejected and left the seat. Looking at the unsightly circle chair, the feet of the chair actually sank into the floor.
"Hey, Brother Huang, you are really a lucky general, just said that there is no mechanism, no, you opened the mechanism." Bing'er said.
The mural is divided in two, creaking and gradually opening. A deep passage appeared in front of the four of them. Lamps hung on the walls of the passageway, and slippery, blood-colored moss grew on the top of the steps, which stretched down to the depths.
"Let's go down. If you don't enter the tiger's den, you will get the tiger. Duanmu Yi looked at the trio in a daze.
"Let's go." Bing'er followed closely behind Duanmu Yi, and the ghost elder also walked towards the passage, Huang Ji looked left and right, and finally mustered up his courage, as if he was desperate, and also got into the passage.
The stairs of the passage continue to descend and reach the end of the tunnel. The four of Duanmuyi raised the spirit of twelve points and walked down step by step.
Rustle - rustle –
Suddenly, there was a very thin sound in the silent passage that looked like nibbling on mulberry leaves. The nerves of the four tensed.
"Be careful, keep up." Duanmu Yi called.
The four of them slowed down even more slowly, observing up and down, left and right, but they didn't dare to act rashly.
Dozens of steps went down the stairs, and the rustling sound reached the ears of the four of them more clearly.
"It looks like it's right next door." Ghost old way.
"I heard it too, it seems to be right next door, what kind of bug's voice, could it be a brain Gu Qi worm?" Huang Jidao.
"It's very likely, let's discuss what to do next." Duanmu Yidao.
The three of them nodded their heads.
