Chapter 14: The Raid

Sou

A black shadow burst out of the dense forest and stopped beside Ziyun, not stiff between movement and stillness, but very natural.

"How's it going?"

Liu Ling put down Faye Wong, whose legs were trembling, and asked Ziyun on the side.

"They seem to have entered the tomb, and I was a step late when I arrived." Ziyun pointed to the big hole in front of her and said.

In front of the three of them was a large irregular hole with a diameter of ten meters, and the ground next to the big hole was charred and blackened, emitting the burning smell of gunpowder, and a discerning person would know at a glance that it had been blown open with a bomb.

Liu Ling stepped forward and looked into the big hole in the ground, there was scorched earth within ten meters underground, which should be the traces left by the bomb, and ten meters further down, some metallic colors appeared, and between twenty and thirty meters, a bronze metal wall covered with mud was exposed.

I don't know how these metals were made, they weren't damaged much in the explosion of the bomb, and they are still strong and glowing with a faint cyan glow thousands of years later.

"Let's go down too." Liu Ling pointed to the crawling marks on the soil pit in the big cave and said: "They haven't been down for too long, now they should be able to catch up with the traces they have walked, and then just subdue them." ”

"But this hole is so deep, how can we go down?" Faye Wong worriedly looked at the bottomless hole in front of her, which was almost as high as a fifteen-story apartment building.

"No problem, don't forget that we are the Adepts, let me solve this little thing, Purple Electric Ability, Purple Electric Lock."

Zi Yun manipulated the special electric elements in the atmosphere to condense like in her hand, forming a purple chain, and with a flick of her hand, one end of the chain was wrapped around the nearest tree.

Throw the other end of the chain into the pit, the chain is more than enough to reach the bottom of the pit, and then Ziyun is the first to grab the chain and crawl into the pit.

"Be careful." Liu Ling asked Faye Wong to climb down after him, so that he could take care of himself below Faye Wong.

"Hey."

Although the physical fitness is no different from ordinary people, it is still very simple to climb down by holding the chains like this, and Faye Wong will end up by herself without the help of others.

"They should have gone in that direction, and we will chase." Ziyun said, pointing in the direction of the footprints.

The walls covered with cyan metal shimmered faintly in the darkness, allowing Liu Lingthe three of them to faintly see the surrounding scene in the dark.

"There's a metal torch in there, and it's just right in handy." Faye Wong picked up the bronze metal torch inlaid on the wall, pointed a finger, and a flame bloomed, and lit the torch.

The light of the flame is naturally much brighter than the faint light of the wall, which also broadens Faye Wong and Ziyun's vision a lot, as for Liu Ling, his eyes have been improved by the Milky Way Source Force and the Crimson Flame, so he can see clearly in the dark.

Liu Ling and Ziyun also took a torch and lit it, and then walked quickly to the front, the strange thing is that except for the footprints at the beginning, Liu Ling and the three of them walked for so long but did not find any other traces left by those tomb robbers.

Odd.

The speed of Liu Ling and Faye Wong was not slow, and they asked Liu Ling to speed up with Faye Wong for a while, but after advancing for nearly an hour, they still didn't see any figures.

"What's going on? Did we go wrong in the first place? Did they pretend to have stepped on a few footprints here, but in fact they went the other way? ”

After walking for so long, Ziyun's feet were also a little sore, and she wavered a little in her choice.

"This possibility is very small, in my perception, the passage opposite does not have the smell left by human passing, unless the other party is a two-star cultivator stronger than me, otherwise it will definitely not be able to hide my perception."

"And the chance that the other party is a two-star cultivator is too small, I think they should have taken this path." Liu Ling touched his smooth chin and said.

"But they can't have walked so long without leaving a trace......

Before Ziyun finished speaking, Liu Ling blocked her lips with a small soft hand and took away the important first kiss.

Ziyun, who saw her first kiss snatched away, was suddenly angry, it was her first kiss, she hadn't even kissed her mother, how dare you ......

The purple arc on Ziyun's body was rioting irregularly, just like her furious mood, and she was about to strike Liu Ling with an unstoppable death.

Knock knock

At that moment, there was a sound of metal striking against each other from a short distance, loud in the quiet hallway.

"What the hell?"

Faye Wong stared into the distance, quickly mobilizing her flame ability, and a raging fire ignited on her body, shining as bright as day within ten meters around.

Perhaps sensing the existence of Liu Ling and the others, the sound of metal knocking was getting closer and closer to Liu Ling and the others, and the sound was getting clearer and clearer.

Zi Yun, who knew that Liu Ling did this for a reason, glared at Liu Ling viciously, whispered that this matter was not over, and then temporarily let Liu Ling go and looked ahead.

Knock knock...... Kowtow!

The sound of percussion suddenly crossed a long distance and appeared in the ears of Liu Ling and the others, as if it was ringing around them, startling Faye Wong and Ziyun.

Liu Ling, whose eyes were flashing with a faint silver light, calmly looked around, just now his keen perception clearly captured a strange aura approaching him, why did it disappear in the blink of an eye?

The corridor suddenly became quiet again, so quiet that Liu Ling and the three of them could faintly hear each other's breathing, but the sound of metal knocking just now could not be heard at all, as if what Liu Ling and the others had just heard was just an illusion.

No, it can't be an illusion.

Liu Ling kept scanning the surroundings, but nothing unusual happened, it was very calm here, and it seemed to be very ordinary, but a faint sense of crisis always lingered in Liu Ling's heart.

"Huhu, it should have been an illusion just now, I think it should be that some of the mechanisms in this tomb are in disrepair, that's why this sound is made."

Ziyun was on guard for a while, but there was no abnormality, so she withdrew her own initiative and removed the protection of Zidian ability, after all, they are only one-star abilities, and their mental power is still limited, and they can't bear it if they keep maintaining their ability to release it.

"Stupid, don't let your guard down, be careful......"

Before Liu Ling's words were finished, a change that no one expected suddenly happened.

Bang

The right wall closest to Ziyun seemed to be hit by some huge force, and a long bulge suddenly appeared, and the sound of metal knocking shook Liu Lingsan's eardrums.

The next moment, a bloody arm blasted out of the bronze wall and grabbed at Ziyun's neck.
