Chapter 124: Two Drops of Blood
Chapter 124
"Artifact?" Roddy was stunned for a moment: "Magical ......"
Andy immediately interrupted Roddy's voice: "I know what you're thinking! There are also several so-called 'artifacts' enshrined in the religious centers of the imperial capital, but I can tell you that those 'artifacts' enshrined in the religious centers are all used by the Divine Cult to deceive people and fool those stupid believers!
Luo Di smiled bitterly, "Even if he has any artifact, so what? What should we do now? Do we keep going, or go back around? Get out of this hellish forest?"
Andy suddenly let out a series of weird laughs: "Boy, haven't you thought about why this vulture came here?"
Luo Di was stunned for a moment, he was busy running for his life all the way just now, and he really didn't have time to think about this question, and when he calmed down and listened to the old skeleton's question, a series of thoughts immediately flashed in Luo Di's heart:
"The vulture is the serpent, and the serpent is the mythical 'tooth of the abyss'. [No pop-up novel network] is a mythical minions who guard the door of the abyss. Because in the Gate of the Abyss there is a powerful demon dragon that once rebelled against the gods...... Could it be that this place, deep in this hellish forest, is the gate of the abyss? is the so-called place where the demon dragon is imprisoned? This is possible, after all, such an evil place has never been heard of......" Thinking of this, Luo Di frowned again: "But it doesn't make sense! If this is the place where the legendary demon dragon is imprisoned, then if the vulture is the legendary minions guarding the gate of the abyss, then he should be guarding this place and not letting people in! But why did he venture into here twice?"
Andy also muttered, "Yes, these seem to be a little incomprehensible, but there is one more ...... Vulture is the chief of the Flame Tribe, and he is no more than Chinese New Year's Eve years old, but the legendary Fang of the Abyss is the ninth son of the Demon Dragon...... But it's thousands of years old......"
Seeing that Luo Di's face in front of him was gloomy, he shook his head for a while and nodded for a while. Danyue Wu couldn't help but say, "What's wrong with you?
Luo Di was suddenly awakened by the words of the Light Moon Dance, looked at the girl of the Silver Moon Clan in front of him, his heart moved, and he said loudly: "You Silver Moon Clan era guards here, do you know this canyon...... That is, what is the secret in the 'Side of Sin'?"
Danyue Wu was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect the other party to suddenly ask such a question, her face changed slightly, and she said in a low voice: "This secret is known only to the highest-ranking elders in the clan! Ancient scriptures can only be read by elders, I don't know so much-why are you asking this?"
Roddy shook his head and whispered, "I just want to know what the hell is going on in this weird place...... And that vulture, why did he get in here so desperately......"
Before Luo Di finished speaking, an indifferent voice suddenly came from behind the two: "Why ask her, I'll tell you!"
Danyue Dance and Roddy were both startled, and suddenly turned around, only to see that the vultures had walked behind the two of them without knowing when!
Although the vulture's voice was still so indifferent at the moment, it was very embarrassed, and it was not the arrogant and indifferent appearance at all. The spotless white linen clothes had already been torn, and there were still blood stains on his body, the left chest had the most blood stains, and there was a faint trace of blood flowing out.
His face was also blue and white, as if his face was almost transparent! The corners of his mouth seemed to have some bloodstains, and the tone of what he said just now was as cold as ever, but his voice was obviously a little unstable and lacking in breath. Looking closely, although he was standing there, his chest was gently rising and falling, and his breath was obviously a little weak.
"Don't you want to know, I can tell you!" vulture's voice was a little proud, "You're right! I'm 'Yormangund', the ninth son of the dragon you call the Far-Reaching Fang!"
Seeing that Vulture said this unabashedly, Roddy's face changed, but the Light Moon Dance next to him screamed "Ah", looking at Vulture's expression with a little strangeness.
"Don't you want to know what the hell is in this forest? Hmph, what 'Guilty Side', that's what their Silver Moon Clan said, it's all Kara's guy! I tell you, deep in this woods is where His Majesty the Great Demon Dragon sleeps!"
After this sentence was spoken, Luo Di and Dan Yue Wu both shook their bodies, and a thought immediately flashed in Luo Di's heart: "Sure enough!"
Vulture slowly walked over. He seemed to be injured a lot, and his body was a little unstable, but watching him slowly approach, Luo Di couldn't help but have an indescribable sense of oppression in his heart - after all, the other party was a legendary and mythical character!
Vulture walked up to Roddy, sat down slowly, and said in a low voice: "I was originally the ninth son of His Majesty the Demon Dragon, and His Majesty the Demon Dragon was defeated and sealed in this imprisoned forest. And after I was caught, my consciousness was also imprisoned, and I was originally proud, but I became a demonic beast without thoughts! Hell, how can I, Lord Yormangunde, compare to that kind of inferior creature! I am a high-level creature created by His Majesty the Demon Dragon! But they used a spell to keep me here and let me guard this forest! This is what you call the Gate of the Abyss! Hmph...... It's really despicable!, I actually let His Majesty the Demon Dragon's son go to guard the cage that imprisons His Majesty the Demon Dragon!!" Speaking of this, the tone of the vultures finally showed a bit of excitement.
"Those vile and shameless enemies, defeated His Majesty the Demon Dragon, and captured me. Not only did I imprison His Majesty the Demon Dragon, but I also had a shameless curse that sealed my consciousness, and for a thousand years, I became a thing that had no thinking and no self-consciousness like a wild beast! I knew that I only woke up thirty years ago! I realized that I was different from the other inferior creatures in this forest! I am the son of the proud Demon Dragon Majesty! I should be the lord of the high! Not a big snake that only knows how to crawl, roll, and hiss on the ground!"
Roddy finally sighed and said tentatively, "So...... When you wake up, you immediately have to find a way to revive the demon dragon?
"Hmph, hum, ......hum," Wuya sneered: "It's not about him, it's about merging...... It would be an honor for a lowly human to be able to merge with a creature of my magnitude Yormangunde!"
Roddy suddenly remembered a thought in his head: "Wait...... That...... What's the point of that prophecy you mentioned? You also said that you want the empire not to enter the mountains...... What's the real reason for that?"
Vulture was silent for a moment, then whispered, "The reason I said that day is the real reason! That prophecy is true, and I can't tell you the source." And I ask you not to go into the mountains...... There is also a special reason!"
"What is the reason?"
The vultures seemed to hesitate for a moment, sneered, and said, "It's okay to tell you--the despicable enemy has cast a spell imprisoning the sleeping place of His Majesty the Demon Dragon, and although that spell is powerful, the powerful cultivator can still break through and awaken the Demon Dragon Lord! But the despicable enemy has made a vicious curse on His Majesty the Demon Dragon! Unless it is to awaken His Majesty the Demon Dragon under certain conditions, otherwise, it is necessary to wake up His Majesty rashly-Although Your Majesty wakes up, he cannot achieve the original powerful divine power!" It's just going to become the same mindless monster as I was at the beginning!"
Luo Di nodded and said coldly, "That's why you asked us to reach an agreement and let His Majesty the Emperor order that the Imperial people are not allowed to enter this mountain?"
Vulture also did not deny: "There are many people in your human race who are highly cultivated, but most of them obey the emperor's orders. β
Luo Di thought for a while and sneered: "That's right. Everything makes sense. Glancing at the little frightened Moon Dance, she saw that the Light Moon Dance was staring at the vultures, pinching her precious spar in her hand, and her eyes were full of vigilance and fear - she was a girl after all, and when she suddenly heard so many legendary things, she was always a little scared when she thought of these terrible demons and monsters.
Roddy, on the other hand, didn't have the slightest fear - basically, his nerves had been trained. What is a big snake afraid of? The old skeleton of Andy, old Mark, which one of them is not an old guy and an old monster that has been around for hundreds of years? What's more, Andy said that the strength of the vultures has not yet reached the stage of 'realm', at most it has reached the level of the Black Veil Sage, and once he encountered the Black Veil Sage, he dared to show his sword and fight with others!
"In that case, you must have found the right way to awaken the demon dragon when you entered this forest again this time?"
Wuya's face remained unchanged, and he said lightly: "Yes, I found out the method of awakening His Majesty the Demon Dragon from the ancient scripture that the Silver Moon Clan forced...... So...... I have to bring you in with this girl......"
Luo Di felt a little uneasy in his heart: "Why?"
Vultures smiled faintly, but this smile was full of coldness, and his voice was even colder.
"Because, to awaken His Majesty the Demon Dragon, the blood of two cultivators must be required at the same time, these two cultivators, one must be a descendant of the Kara people, and the other must be a descendant of the God Clan. The humans of your empire are descendants of the Protoss, and this girl is from the Silver Moon Clan, which is the descendant of the Kara people. At this, another smile appeared on the vulture's face.
Luo Di felt a cold sweat, and said with a reluctant smile on his face: "Blood? hum...... It's a clichΓ© approach......"
Wuya's face remained unchanged, and he said lightly: "Don't worry, I'm not a person who kills indiscriminately. After the sacrifice with your blood, I will let you go - if you have the means to walk back from here. β
Walking back?
Think of the fish that spit out needles out of the river's water, and think of the terrible trolls...... Roddy sighed.
Vultures stopped talking, but slowly stood up and pulled. His face also improved slightly, and he looked at Roddy and Light Moon Dance, and nodded slightly, signaling that they could continue walking.
Roddy was helpless in his heart, but he knew that even if he turned his face now, he would definitely not be a vulture, and he was seriously injured and exhausted at the moment - in this case, fighting with an old monster in a myth and legend? That was not courage at all, but looking for death!
The vultures are still at the forefront. Roddy and Light Moon Dance supported each other and slowly followed.
It was safe, and there were no more terrible monsters. At this moment, Luo Di's heart was extremely complicated, and he didn't know whether he hoped that a few more monsters would appear to kill this vulture, or whether he hoped that he would reach his destination safe and sound.
Through the gaps in the dense foliage overhead, the sky was getting darker. The three of them walked for a whole day!
From last night to now, day and night, Luo Di and Light Moon Dance have long been exhausted, and the water and rice have not entered. The pain on his body seemed to be getting worse and worse, and his steps were staggering. What's more, at this moment, the two of them are covered in sludge, and Roddy still has residual sludge in his mouth and nose, which is even more embarrassing.
Seeing that the two of them were following behind, Wuya turned around and whispered, "You'd better ...... This forest is the safest during the day, with only a few monsters appearing, but at night, most of the monsters come out to move!"
Luo Di took a deep breath, thinking of the fierce battle he encountered with trolls during the day, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "The most 'safe' during the day?"
Ran said this, but he still believed the words of the vultures, and reluctantly quickened his pace, pulling the light moon dance forward.
Seeing that the trees around him were gradually becoming scarce, gradually, an empty meadow appeared in front of him, and the dense green grass bushes appeared, although it was only a few miles away from a small square garden, but it made Luo Di can't help but think of the vast grassland in the northwest.
"It's here!" vultures paused, a little excited in their tone.
"Didn't you say there should be a tree as tall as a hill here?" Roddy's eyes widened.
The vultures ignored him, slowly lowered their heads, silently chanted with both hands, and then suddenly opened their arms! Roddy once again felt a wave of dizziness in his brain, and the space in front of him immediately distorted, and just when he was stunned, a crack appeared in the space in front of him!
The vultures were covered with sweat, and the thoughts in their mouths were moving faster and faster, and the cracks slowly opened and widened...... In the end, just as Luo Di and Light Moon Dance exclaimed, the crack suddenly cracked open with a "peng", turning into countless rays of light and disappearing.
What appeared in front of Roddy's eyes was indeed a huge tree trunk!
The trunk was unimaginably large...... The black trunk of the tree took on an iron-black color, and Roddy sighed in his heart: "It's amazing...... When I entered the mountain, I thought that the kind of tree that was hugged by more than a dozen people was very big...... I'm afraid that there are not hundreds of people who can't hold this tree...... What an evil door!"
The big tree spread out like a huge umbrella, its lush forked branches spread out in all directions, and countless branches hung down, but what was surprising was that whether it was the trunk or the branches, or the leaves on the branches, all this was actually black!
Luo Di raised his head and looked at it, only to feel that the height of this big tree was unimaginable, and the towering trunk really seemed to be ** sky...... Until the end of the eye can reach!
Luo Di sighed in his heart: "No wonder that demon dragon has been sealed for more than a thousand years, such a big tree is pressed, let alone running, it can be crushed to death......"
Vultures stood aside, finally breathing a sigh of relief, and with a flick of their sleeves, Roddy and Light Moon Dance immediately felt a gust of wind blow their bodies and rushed towards the tree.
The three of them walked for a while, and when they went around to the other side of the tree, they saw a huge stone statue as tall as a troll towering next to the tree, and behind the statue, a stone door stood on the trunk of the tree!
The statue was made of great shape, like a strange and powerful monster, but I didn't know what it was. I saw that its body looked like a male lion crawling and lying down, and the thick mane on its body seemed to be burning with lust. But above the neck, there is a man's head, with a long head hanging down on both sides, a serious face, two meters slightly closed, and a crown on his head!!
Wuya said slowly: "This is it!" After speaking, he glanced at Luo Di coldly.
Roddy smiled bitterly, "You mean, it's time to ask for our blood?"
Vultures nodded, pointed to the statue, and said lightly: "You each go and smear your own blood on one of the statue's eyes! Remember to be quick! Legend has it that it must be with blood that has just left the human body for only half an hour!"
Roddy had already taken a step back and whispered, "What if you don't get blood?"
Vulture smiled coldly: "You might as well try it yourself?"
Roddy thought for a moment, slowly approached the statue, and reached out to the stone door behind it.
Suddenly he heard a roar, and the statue seemed to be alive, and a sound that really sounded like a lion's roar burst out of its mouth! Roddy only felt as if his hands had been struck by electricity at the same time, and a huge force knocked him out, flying far away before falling to the grass.
Roddy struggled a few times, sat up, opened his mouth first and spit out the grass clippings in his mouth, and scolded, "Hell!"
Vulture watched coldly as Luo Di struggled to get up from the ground, and said lightly: "This is a place where I have been imprisoned by the spell, of course I can't get in!" The last time I came, I wanted to force a breakthrough with my own strength, but I suffered a big loss, and I went back and lost my skin twice before recovering. β
"Moulting?" Rody's heart moved, and then he remembered the scene two days ago when he saw the vultures as if they were aging, and sighed in his heart: "It turned out to be a snake molting, but I thought he had fallen into some vicious magic." β
Vultures no longer paid attention to Luo Di, glanced at the light moon dance coldly, and said lightly: "You go first, just cut your finger and smear a little blood on one of the stone statue's eyes." β
Light Moon Dance's complexion changed slightly, a strange look appeared in her eyes, she gasped twice, and slowly walked towards the stone statue. When she walked to the side of the stone statue, she suddenly pulled out a short scimitar from her body out of nowhere, suddenly grasped the handle of the knife with both hands, and slashed at the stone statue with a low sound!
Vultures stood aside and watched coldly, as if they had expected her to do this, and they didn't have the slightest idea of stepping forward to stop her.
With a "ding" sound, the scimitar in the hand of the light moon dance immediately turned into countless pieces before it slashed on the stone statue, and the light moon dance also let out a loud cry and flew out sideways, landing right on Luo Di's side.
Vulture said coldly, "Are you dead now?" do you think you can organize me?"
Light Moon Dance supported herself with her arms and got up, gritted her teeth and said, "I am from the Silver Moon Clan, and our mission is to guard here!
Wuya said lightly: "Well, you Silver Moon Clan are the most stubborn, I have long guessed that you will not be so obedient." I tried to destroy that stone statue the last time I came, but I can't help it, so what can you do?"
Between the words, Vulture slowly stretched out a hand, volleying in the void, Light Moon Dance screamed, and her body had involuntarily flew towards Vultures!
Vultures grabbed Moondance's neck and carried her like a chicken, and Moondance struggled desperately, but there was no resistance under Vanya's hands. I saw that the vultures stretched out a finger of his other hand and swiped it slightly, and a shallow wound immediately appeared on the neck of the light moon dance, and a trace of blood came out. With a slight flick of the vulture's fingers, a drop of blood splattered out, impartially splashing on one of the stone statue's eyes.
After doing all this, Vultures let go of their hands, and the Light Moon Dance immediately fell to the ground, and was stunned on the spot. Vultures said slowly, "I said that I always like to kill people, but if you make trouble again, will I, Lord Yormangunde, dare to kill even a human of the Kara tribe?"
He glanced at Luo Di and said lightly: "It's your turn!"
Light Moon Dance suddenly bounced up from the ground, raised one hand, threw the red spar to Roddy, and shouted urgently: "Run! You can be invisible with this thing! He can't catch you! Can't let him succeed!"
Luo Di took the crystal, but he was unmoved, looked at the vultures with cold eyes, and then looked at the light moon dance, and said slowly: "It's useless...... This vultures don't have to rely on their eyes at all. Didn't he hurt you when you were invisible in the cave last night?"
Roddy strode over to the statue and stabbed his finger with the crystal in his hand, smearing a drop of blood on one of the statue's outer eyes.
The face shook slightly, and the monster on the stone statue suddenly twisted its body, and then the stone statue seemed to come to life, and the body that was originally lying on its stomach stood up, first shaking its shoulders, and then growing its mouth, and yawning long.
As if it was very lazy, it opened its eyes, looked at the three people present, and let out an amazing lion roar. It's just that these three people have never seen anything along the way? Although the stone statue is very powerful, the faces of the three people have not changed.
The stone statue seemed to be a little depressed, and a helpless expression appeared on its face, and sighed: "Alas, it's been hundreds of years, and finally someone is here again......"
[The ban has been lifted, a lot of bans have been lifted last week, right? Everyone has a lot of votes, I will continue to lift the ban!]
