Chapter 104: The Chain on the Altar
The cyan silk thread completely submerged into Murong Jie's forehead, and in the next second, the cyan silk thread seemed to have hooked something, Pei Lao's face became solemn, and the index finger and thumb of his right hand pinched one end of the cyan silk thread, and then pulled it outward.
A faint phantus shadow appeared from Murong Jie's forehead as Pei Lao pulled the cyan silk thread little by little.
Seeing the phantom revealed, Pei Lao's expression became more solemn, a large bead of sweat flowed down his cheeks from his forehead, Pei Lao couldn't care about wiping it, his right hand holding the silk thread became more and more stable, and his arm did not tremble at all, but the green tendons on his arm were obviously very difficult to pull out the phantom.
This phantom is a wisp of Murong Jie's soul body, and if you want the chaotic qi to become Murong Jie's spiritual root, you must integrate a wisp of his soul into it.
Murong Jie endured the pain of his soul being torn apart, his handsome face began to become distorted because of the pain, his throat was damaged under the long-term roar, his vocal cords were damaged, and he could no longer make a sound, but Murong Jie still let out a silent roar.
"It hurts, it hurts."
Inside the Fuwang underground palace, the operation to change the spiritual root was in full swing, and outside the underground palace, a void shook, cracking a hole, and Zhou Tao's body fell from it and fell into a mountain stream.
Next to Zhou Tao's corpse, a beautiful girl squatted next to Zhou Tao's corpse, with a sad look in her eyes.
This girl is the nine-tailed civet cat, when she was in the Fuwang dungeon before, the dragon qi of the dragon veins in the dungeon made her extremely uncomfortable, so she turned into a black cat tattoo and hid on Zhou Tao's right arm, so she escaped and was not killed by Pei Lao.
"Zhou Tao, my spiritual power is exhausted, and I can only take your corpse out of the void, but I can't do anything about your life."
The nine-tailed civet cat's voice was weak, and the slender jade hand gently brushed Zhou Tao's cheek, and then turned into a streamer, which once again merged into the right arm of Zhou Tao's corpse, becoming a tattoo with a black cat pattern.
She was too consumed to maintain her body and fell into a deep sleep.
In the mountain stream, the cold wind is howling, the air is slightly cool, and the white snowflakes are slowly falling.
The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and Zhou Tao's body was covered in a thick layer of white snow.
"Where is this? Netherworld? Zhou Tao looked at the darkness in front of him and felt a little familiar.
"Are you in that black abyss in the interior now?"
Zhou Tao only felt that his body was constantly falling in this endless abyss, I don't know how long it was, it could be a few hours, it could be a day or two, the endless darkness and the weightlessness of the rapid fall had already made Zhou Tao lose his concept of time, and suddenly two points of light appeared in front of Zhou Tao's eyes.
Immediately after, the fall stopped, and Zhou Tao felt that his feet were on the ground.
In the air not far from him, there seemed to be two big red lanterns hanging, emitting a faint light, in the dark for so long, Zhou Tao is now very sensitive to light, even if the light of the red lantern is very weak and soft, Zhou Tao still feels extremely dazzling.
Half-squinting, after a while, Zhou Tao felt that his eyes were no longer so uncomfortable, and with the help of the faint light of the two red lanterns, he could barely see a general outline of the abyss.
Standing in the middle of an empty square, in front of which there was a huge stone altar.
At the edge of the altar, countless black iron chains extended.
These chains stretched to the center of the altar, as if they were bound to something.
"What kind of place is this? How could there be such a spooky altar? ”
Zhou Tao wanted to see what was on the altar, but the light was too dim, and he could only see a black patch.
Zhou Tao looked around again, and could only see the empty square and the huge altar, and no matter how far away, they were all hidden in the boundless darkness.
"It seems that if I want to know what this place is, I still have to go up to the altar and see, maybe there is an answer there." Zhou Tao said secretly in his heart, and at the same time walked towards the altar.
The altar seemed not far away, but Zhou Tao walked for nearly half an hour to get under the altar, and when he got closer, Zhou Tao found that the altar was more than thirty meters high, and countless black iron chains stretched out on the altar, and these black iron chains were extremely thick, each with a diameter of three or four meters.
Curious, Zhou Tao stretched out his hand to one of the chains, and the moment he touched the chain, Zhou Tao felt as if his fingers had been hit by a high-voltage electric current, and the severe pain made Zhou Tao withdraw his hand like lightning.
"What a terrifying attack." Feeling the numb right hand, Zhou Tao secretly smacked his tongue.
Suddenly, the iron chain that had been touched by Zhou Tao flashed with bursts of golden light, turning the entire chain into pale gold.
Zhou Tao took a closer look, and it was full of dense runes, some of which were like Buddhist swastikas.
"Are these altars and chains the handiwork of Buddhism?"
Zhou Tao was more interested in the existence of being bound by these iron chains, what kind of existence could make Buddhism spend so much effort in such a place.
At that moment, his curiosity was aroused, and he did not care about the pain, so he grabbed the chain and climbed to the top of the altar.
This altar is too high, Zhou Tao, who has nowhere to borrow strength, can only climb along those iron chains, fortunately there are enough iron chains, and it is not effortless to climb, enduring the stinging pain and numbness as if he was being shocked, Zhou Tao is like an ape, kicking, in a flash, quickly crawling upward.
"Why is this chain getting thicker and thicker, and the inductance is stronger."
Zhou Tao, who has already climbed half of it, grinned with electricity, the rune energy here is already very strong, at the beginning, if the metaphor was a needle prick, now it can be regarded as a knock with a stick, every time he touches the iron chain, the rune will form a strong impact force to knock Zhou Tao away, if it weren't for Zhou Tao's flexible body, every time he turned to another iron chain with the help of impact, he would have fallen down long ago.
"The leaked energy alone is so strong, so how strong is the existence bound by these iron chains??"
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Zhou Tao heard that there was a voice calling to him in the dark, and the voice went straight to his soul, but if he listened carefully, it was difficult to hear what the voice was saying.
"Is this sound coming from above?"
Zhou Tao looked up as he jumped between the chains, and under his careful induction, he found that the voice that had been calling him was coming from above the altar.
"What is on this altar?"
Zhou Tao's face kept changing, he was a little hesitant in his heart now, whether he should continue to climb up, although climbing these chains would suffer some hardships, but he could bear these, but the problem was that once on the altar, the thing that called him did not have good intentions towards him, with the strength of that thing, I am afraid that he will not escape.
After hesitating, Zhou Tao still decided to climb up to take a look, the power of this call seemed to touch his soul, and his intuition told him that if he didn't see what called him, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
