Chapter 303: The Prisoner Underground
When he came into contact with the sticky stuff in the water, Lin Yu had a bad premonition in his heart.
They only knew that the ancient dead insects were afraid of water and would dissolve in water, but they didn't know what would become of the water here after they dissolved.
Now, countless ancient dead insects have been melted away by the water, and their bodies are naturally scattered all over the water.
Through the light, Lin Yu saw that the water around them had become a black mess, and there was constantly foaming in it, and at the same time, there were still things that slowly squirmed under them.
Something floating on the surface of the water seemed to have life, and it was constantly wriggling, very slowly, but visible to the naked eye.
"What's the situation?"
Then the old mountain demon came over, and it looked at the water suspiciously, and then became a little uneasy.
"Hero, the water seems to be alive!"
"It's not alive! It's those ancient dead worms! There are so many of them that they are now dissolved all at once, polluting all the water here. What floats on the water is their corpse, but the corpse is actually alive? ”
"I thought of it! Ancient dead insects can parasitize corpses, and if these black things can also be counted as corpses, then they can also be parasitic! ”
The old mountain demon's words completely woke up Lin Yu.
Now, under the entire underground, floating on the surface of the water, are dead ancient dead insects, and their bodies have not had time to dissolve, forming a layer of slimy things on the surface of the water.
And this layer of things has become a breeding ground for those ancient dead insects that are still alive, and they use to parasitize.
With the light around him, Lin Yu couldn't help but look at his hands, which were stained with black water, and there were extremely slender lines moving on his palms.
His heart tightened, and he immediately shook it forward, and the black sword came out instantly, Lin Yu didn't think about it, so he imprinted his palm on the blade.
Then, the black and red blade burst into flames.
Perhaps because they had killed too many ancient dead insects, the flames that were originally black and red had now changed color into black and white turbid flames.
The chaotic flames scorched the black water on Lin Yu's palm, and at the same time, it also burned his palm.
This was the first time he had been burned by the black sword, and a feeling of uneasiness came to his heart.
Lin Yu immediately endured the pain, let go of his hands, and after extinguishing the flames on it, he immediately pointed to the rock wall next to him.
"Old thing, climb up, I'm worried about the things in the water, I'm afraid they will come back to life!"
"Then you're holding on!"
The old mountain demon didn't delay much, as soon as he grabbed Lin Yu and put him on his body, he immediately jumped up, grabbed the rock wall next to him, and then crawled slowly on the steep rock wall.
As soon as they left the ground, a layer of pitch-black rose from the surface of the vast underground water area beneath them.
As the thing appeared, it began to shrink rapidly, and soon, it condensed into a huge black sphere, absorbing all the black matter on the surface of the water.
After that, the surface of the black sphere slowly cracked, and with a burst of cracking sounds, a huge crimson point of light was revealed on the sphere.
It was a huge eye on a black ball, crimson and terrifying.
As soon as it turned, it began to rise towards Lin Yu's position, and at the same time, in other parts of the sphere, the black matter on the surface began to change wildly.
Soon, a large mouth covered in pitch-black fangs appeared beneath them.
The old mountain demon glanced back, and immediately sped up his climb.
"Don't look back, go up!"
Lin Yu also saw the situation under him at this time, he didn't expect that those ancient dead insects would be able to resurrect again with a new attitude after they died.
And this time, the black sphere that condensed the power of the peerless ancient dead insect was extremely powerful.
Those scarlet eyes, just looking at them, had a feeling like falling into an ice cave.
The old mountain demon could only take him with him now, and he climbed at night, which was fine at first, but later, as their altitude continued to rise, and finally, the rock wall became steeper.
Although they have not yet reached the unclimbable place, the amplitude of their bodies, combined with the monsters chasing them below, make them in a precarious state.
During the climbing, the old mountain demon's body began to tilt wider, and with a climbing error, its body appeared to tilt strongly.
At this time, Lin Yu on its body also almost fell.
The lantern in his hand unfortunately fell.
When the only light source disappeared, the key they used to escape disappeared with it.
At this time, there was another terrifying sound from under him.
"It's coming!"
The mountain demon, who had always been calm in the old city, also became trembling and uneasy.
"It's okay, let's continue!"
Lin Yu said calmly, he couldn't see his surroundings clearly now, so he could only let the old mountain demon continue to climb.
"At the end of the day, I'm afraid I won't be able to go up! But I'd like to figure it out! ”
Before the old mountain demon had climbed a few times, it was completely unable to move, and an unknown obstacle appeared in front of it, and it could only grope in the dark.
"It's the top of the rock, I'm trying to break it!"
The old mountain demon said, and then smashed the rock wall above his head with a punch.
As the stones scattered, a large hole must have been opened above their heads.
"It seems to work, I'll send you up first!"
As he spoke, the old mountain demon reached out and groped, grabbed Lin Yu and sent him up.
"You've got to hold on to it, hero!"
Lin Yu was thrown up a little bit by it, but he didn't succeed the first time, because it was too dark around him, and he couldn't see the situation above.
"One more time!"
The old mountain demon sent him up a little again, this time it seemed to have some heads, but before Lin Yu could grasp the surrounding stones, the old mountain demon's body fell down suddenly, and then, its mouth let out a miserable scream.
"It bit me!"
The old mountain demon let out a cry of pain, and then his arm suddenly slammed upward, throwing Lin Yu out.
"Let's go! Come on! ”
In the darkness, the voice of the old mountain demon echoed in Lin Yu's ears.
In the confusion, it was bitten half of its body by the black orb and dragged down.
At the critical moment, the old mountain demon used all his strength to throw the forest feather on its body.
After that, its body lost its fulcrum, and at the same time lost all its strength, and fell towards the dark maw.
"Old thing!"
Lin Yu couldn't help but scream hard, but in response to him, there was only a terrifying roar in his ears.
The unknown creature engulfed the old mountain demon entirely, and then, with a red eye, stared at Lin Yu hanging in the air.
At this time, Lin Yu was clutching a protruding rock with one hand.
When he was thrown up, he subconsciously grabbed the point he could rely on with his hands, and it was precisely because of this that he was not swallowed up by what was below like the old mountain demon.
He survived temporarily, but the old mountain demon died because of it.
In the chaos, Lin Yu heard a chewing sound coming from below, as if countless stones were mixed and flesh and blood were being squeezed fiercely.
The body of the old mountain demon must have been swallowed up by something underneath.
At that moment, Lin Yu didn't know whether to be sad or angry.
He clung to the stone, keeping himself from falling, and at the same time, the dream spirit lying on top of him was also screaming.
"I'm about to fall, I don't want to die!"
"Shut up!"
Lin Yu scolded bitterly, and then exerted all his strength.
The only point of support he had now was the stone at hand, and below it was the endless crater, which he hung in mid-air, and the light source was lost in the chaos.
Now he is like a blind man, who can only rely on his senses to slowly climb upwards.
The strength of one arm can barely hold one person.
But the complicated situation above his head made Lin Yu dare not be more optimistic.
