Chapter 205: Helian Trick City
The young man waved his feather fan, only to see that the mountain in front of him had changed its position. The originally towering mountain suddenly rose up and turned into a giant city.
"It's amazing!"
"yes......"
There was a lot of talking.
"I wonder what treasures are here?"
The boy laughed but didn't say a word. He raised his hand and pointed, only to see a tall tower appear in the distance, and several large characters were engraved on the tower:
"Heavenly Palace"!
At the moment when they saw the Heavenly Palace clearly, everyone showed a look of yearning. The Heavenly Palace is like the residence of the immortal family, so magnificent and magnificent, that people can't help but want to go in and explore it.
"Is that the legendary Heavenly Palace?"
"I heard that there are countless precious treasures inside......"
"If you can get the treasure in the heavenly palace"
But when his subordinates took a closer look, they couldn't help but be shocked.
I saw that these so-called Alpine Heavenly Palaces were all composed of hundreds of millions of Gu worms! Each "Heavenly Palace" is ten zhang high, densely packed, and countless. They fluttered and circled in the sky, creating a terrifying sense of momentum and oppression.
At this time, the young man waved the feather fan in his hand again.
In an instant, the Gu worm turned into a streamer and disappeared, returning to its nest again.
"This ...... How so? β
"Amazing, isn't it? In this way, who else would dare to break into the Heavenly Palace? β
"The young master's strength is really strong, he can actually control the Gu worm ......"
"I don't know what the name of the young master's trick is?"
The boy shook his head slightly. He put away his feather fan and turned his head to glance at his attendant. The retinue nodded, and immediately led the group to retreat.
After everyone left, a grim smile appeared on the corner of the young man's mouth. He looked at the Heavenly Palace and muttered in a low voice, "You guys, never want to find the 'Nine Heavens Chalcedony'!" β
"This is the Gu Worm King that I have spent a year cultivating with all my heart's work!"
The boy's face was distorted, and his eyes were deep, as if he had a demonic nature. His eyes gradually turned pitch black, flashing with a faint blue light.
"In order to feed them, I gave them my flesh to eat. Feed daily with blood and water with blood daily. The boy stroked his right arm, showing a look of pain: "Finally, I succeeded." It only takes three days and three nights for me to completely refine these Gu worms and fulfill my life's greatest wish! β
The young man's eyes were resolute, and he slowly walked towards the Heavenly Palace.
β¦β¦
The other side.
After a long journey, Hu Yanxin's team finally came to a halt.
Hu Yanxin and the other two sat on the ground and rested. Hu Yanxin gasped and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"I'm tired of Lao Tzu. This damn place is more dangerous than I thought! β
They just went through a crisis. Fortunately, the three of them worked together to kill a beast, and they were able to save their lives.
But the beast they slain was extraordinarily poisonous. If it weren't for the three of them joining forces, I'm afraid they would have died long ago. Even so, Hu Yanxin, Li Zhong, and Zhang De were still seriously injured.
"Huh, this hellish place, I was injured before I even walked out, can we do this?" Hu Yanxin frowned and looked at the desolate environment around him.
"It's okay, as long as you can get through this journey, you should be able to get out of this jungle soon!" Li Zhong gritted his teeth and said.
The three of them were talking, when suddenly, a poisonous snake sprang out of the grass and quickly attacked their necks!
"Be careful!"
Hu Yanxin reacted very quickly, and immediately pounced on the two of them, blocking the poisonous snake attack for the two of them. Although the poisonous snake is vicious, but his cultivation is deep, and the venom can't erode him at all.
All three breathed a sigh of relief, glad that they had saved their lives.
Li Zhong asked, "Why did this beast run so fast?" β
Hu Yanxin said: "I guess I went crazy when I was fighting just now." β
"Hiss~"
The viper spat red letters and roared angrily. But under the deterrence of Hu Yanxin, it did not rush out again.
Hu Yanxin said: "Continue on your way, I hope we can get out of this forest as soon as possible." Otherwise, we'll all have to give an account here. β
They did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly got up and prepared to continue on the road.
Suddenlyβ
"Roar!"
I saw a demon wolf covered in scale armor and covered with bone spurs on its back suddenly jumped out and went straight to the three of them!
"Demon beast!"
"Be careful!"
The demon wolf was extremely ferocious, biting off half of Li Zhong's shoulder!
"Ahh
The severe pain made Li Zhong scream miserably. After the demon wolf bit him, he began to tear. In the blink of an eye, Li Zhong's left arm was torn off, dripping with blood and revealing white bones.
"Ah!!h
Li Zhong was in unbearable pain, holding his broken arm, kneeling on the ground, screaming again and again.
"Brute, dare to bite!" Hu Yanxin was furious, brandishing an iron spear and stabbing at the demon wolf.
But the speed of the demon wolf was too fast, and he only felt that his eyes were flowering, and the demon wolf disappeared.
Immediately after, the demon wolf attacked from the side, and its sharp claws cut through Li Zhong's chest, grabbing out four hideous blood holes.
"Save me......" Li Zhong howled miserably, watching the demon wolf tear his heart apart, blood gushing out.
"Li Zhong!" Hu Yanxin was overwhelmed with grief and indignation, and raised his iron spear and stabbed the demon wolf in the abdomen.
The demon wolf couldn't dodge, and was suddenly stabbed in the heart. But the demon wolf has rough skin and thick flesh, and it is not fatal. Its furious emotions inspired its ferocious killing intent, and it slapped Hu Yanxin in the chest.
Hu Yanxin's whole person fell to the ground like a cloud, his internal organs were shaken, and blood overflowed from the corners of his mouth.
The demon wolf pounced again, opened its fangs, and was about to devour Hu Yanxin's head. At this time, Li Zhong struggled to get up and stretched out his hand to push the demon wolf away.
"Li Zhong, you're crazy! Get out of here! β
"Get out of here!"
"If you don't leave, we'll all die today!"
Li Zhong desperately pushed Hu Yanxin and refused to give up. He had decided to give up his life and not want to drag his companions down.
Hu Yanxin struggled to break free from his restraints and dragged Li Zhong next to him.
"Run!"
The two fought hard and entangled with each other.
But the demon wolf became more and more angry, it looked up to the sky and roared, its body swelled in a circle, and its tail swept over Hu Yanxin.
Li Zhong was thrown a few meters away and fell heavily to the ground. The wolf pounced on him again and bit him on the head.
Li Zhong's eyes widened, and he didn't bat at death!
"Brute, brute!" Hu Yanxin roared angrily and kicked the demon wolf in the stomach. But the demon wolf's defense can be called an impregnable wall, and it can't be kicked at all.
"Whew~"
The demon wolf opened its mouth and bit Hu Yanxin's leg.
Hu Yanxin endured the severe pain and smashed the demon wolf's head with his fist.
Bang bang!
Two heavy punches hit the demon wolf's eye socket, and the demon wolf screamed, and his eyes almost exploded. But it still clung to Hu Yanxin's leg.
"Damn, damn it, brute, you shit, let me go!"
Thundered......
The sound of the earth shaking and the mountains shaking.
Hu Yanxin looked up and saw the branches in front of him trembling, like an earthquake.
The wolf was so frightened that he clamped his tail and threw his legs into the forest.
"This guy is running fast enough!"
Hu Yanxin sighed, stood up, pulled Li Zhong's corpse and ran: "Bury him first, and then hurry up and get on the road!" β
The two of them carried the corpse and fled quickly.
At this time, an army appeared in front of them.
There were more than 100 people in this team, and they were dressed in strange costumes. Their clothes were embroidered with a lotus flower pattern, and they wore scimitars at their waists, and their expressions were solemn and well-trained.
"Who are you?" One of the commanders at the head shouted.
Hu Yanxin hurriedly explained: "We are merchants from the Dasheng Empire, and we strayed into the Precious Land because we got lost. Please raise your noble hand and let me wait! β
"Dasheng?" The sergeants looked at each other, as if they were discussing something.
The leader of the leader pondered for a long time and said, "You come with me." He was General Helian Tieshu of the Eastern Yuan Empire. β
Helian Tieshu, a famous general of the Eastern Yuan Empire!
"Thank you." Hu Yanxin hurriedly thanked.
"Let's go."
The group walked through the forest and into a huge city.
The name of this city is 'Helian City'.
At the gate of the city is a stone tablet with three words written on it: "Helian King City".
Hu Yanxin looked confused.
"Is this the royal city? Why is it not the same as you imagined? β
He had expected that the city would be a castle-like building, or a majestic palace. But the reality is quite different, there is no sign of luxury at all, and it can even be said to be austere.
There were only a dozen guards at the gates of the city, and the rest of the city was empty and silent.
"It can't be a liar, right? What kind of royal city is this, it's clearly an ordinary village and town! Hu Yanxin was surprised.
"You know what?" Li Zhong snorted coldly: "How can the royal city be entered casually? General Helian Tieshu is a tiger general, and he has always been cautious, and since he sent someone to bring us here, he must have his reasons. β
Hu Yanxin pursed his lips and muttered disdainfully: "Cut, isn't it just relying on his surname Helian!" β
The two carried Li Zhong's body and followed the soldiers into Helian City. The city was very quiet, there was no one in it, and it looked particularly desolate and gloomy.
"Where have all the inhabitants of Helian City migrated?" Hu Yanxin wondered.
An older soldier whispered, "I heard...... The royal city was haunted, so the people moved somewhere else. General Helian was worried that something would happen to the people in the city, so he sent troops to garrison the royal city so as not to be killed by wild ghosts. β
"General Helian really loves the people like a son." Hu Yanxin praised.
"Of course!"
The two were chatting when a cold wind blew, and the surroundings became even colder.
"It seems to be colder...... "Huyanxin shuddered.
"It's not just cold, it's evil!"
The soldier shuddered, pointed to the street ahead and said, "Look."
Following the soldier's point, Hu Yanxin and the others saw a dark building at the end of the street in front of them.
The building seemed to be blackened with ink, pitch black. But if you look closely, you will see that it is not ink, but a pile of countless skeletons.
"What's that?" Li Zhong asked in horror.
Hu Yanxin frowned and said, "That should be a cemetery, maybe the grave of a certain general." β
Li Zhong swallowed his saliva, "Then will we go in again?" β
"Why don't you go in?" Hu Yanxin glared at Li Zhong and scolded, "Do you want to freeze to death outside?" β
"I ......" Li Zhong was speechless.
He knew that now was not the time to hesitate.
"Then let's go inside!" Li Zhong gritted his teeth and said.
So, the two moved on.
As they got closer, they finally got a good look at the bones. The skeletons were men, women, and children, and they were strangely shaped and creepy to look at.
"That's ...... Bones? Hu Yanxin was surprised.
"Not bad." The soldier nodded, his expression grim, and said, "It seems that the rumors are true, Helian City is indeed a strange place in the North Ridge, and these bones are enough to explain everything."
β
"These are the bones of soldiers?" Hu Yanxin was shocked.
"No!"
The soldier shook his head, was silent for a moment, and said, "These bones are not the soldiers', they belong to the enemy. β
"Enemies?"
The soldier nodded and said heavily, "These bones are the bones of the enemy soldiers defeated by General Helian. β
