Section 31 Illusions
Ye Chao randomly found a direction, carried a thin rope in one hand and walked out of the protective area of the stone platform that began to shrink, and leaped into the space full of corrosive gas, Ye Chao controlled the evil qi in his body, part of it formed a braking armor to protect himself, and the other part gushed out from the spring point under his feet, as if he was wearing a jet boot, moving forward quickly. However, Ye Chao did not dare to get too high from the ground, and took a jump forward, which could not only move quickly but also save the consumption of evil qi in his body.
After jumping a few times, Ye Chao did not find any objects in his direction, except for the yellow gas in his eyes, which was the yellow mud on the ground, until the thin rope in his hand came to the end, Ye Chao stopped, and then turned to the left, with the rope in his hand as the radius and began to look in a circle, Ye Chao thought carefully, this is the fastest way, although it may be missed, but as long as it encounters a large object, the rope will definitely be blocked, so Ye Chao will rush to observe.
It's a pity that Ye Chao felt that he had at least drawn a semicircle, and the rope did not come to the touch. Ye Chao continued his plan, continued to leap along the outermost edge of the circle, and halfway through the run, Ye Chao found that about fifty meters away from him, there was a shadow-looking thing in front of him. Ye Chao was overjoyed, this was also thanks to the recent continuous upgrading of the "Nine Evils" exercises, otherwise he would not have been able to find objects at this distance.
Ye Chao put down the string, the thing was not far from him, that is, a jump distance, and he should not be able to find the direction to come back. Then when Ye Chao came to this object, he was both disappointed and happy. What is disappointing is that this thing is the stone tablet that he first discovered, which is engraved with the four big characters of "ancient innocence", and Ye Chao still remembers it vividly. Fortunately, my luck was really good at the beginning, if I hadn't found this stele first, it would have been impossible for me to insist on finding the stone platform, so that I have the current chance of survival.
It's a pity that now this stone tablet that brought good luck to himself did not bring good luck to Ye Chao again, Ye Chao ran around the stone platform, except for the mud, it was still mud, and he found nothing.
"It's a pity that the length of the rope is limited, once you get out of the direction of the rope, then it's really a gamble!" After Ye Chao returned to the stone platform, he sat on the edge of the central stone pillar and talked to himself. Ye Chao was used to talking to himself, because this would prevent a person from falling into a state of madness in a desperate situation of solitude.
"However, if you don't gamble your life, you will sit here and wait for death!" When Ye Chao returned, he observed the scope of the shelter again, and once again confirmed that the range was indeed shrinking, and he was about to touch the outermost black stone pillars.
"Bet!" Ye Chao slapped the stone face. Ye Chao made up his mind, and when he finished resting, he continued to explore along this straight line according to the position of the two points and one line of the stone tablet and the stone platform. Ye Chao felt that this would have the greatest chance of discovering new discoveries.
"Hum, hum......" A strange sound suddenly sounded in Ye Chao's ears.
Ye Chao woke up from the state of preparing to meditate cross-legged, although Ye Chao didn't know how long he had been here, but judging by his biological clock, at least a week or so had passed, usually there was almost no sound here, the silence was terrible, and occasionally only the mud suddenly bubbled and made a "poof, poof" sound.
The "buzz....." voice became rapid. Ye Chao stood up and looked around, trying to find the source of the sound, Ye Chao felt that the sound was around him, and he felt that the sound should be something vibrating and making a sound.
As far as the eye could see at this time, Ye Chao found that the corrosive gas had wrapped a black stone pillar, although the yellow color was not deep, it was obvious that the gas had surpassed the stone pillar and began to move and spread more inward.
At this moment, the sound of "buzzing ....." sounded rapidly, and the originally black stone pillar suddenly glowed with white light, and the light immediately projected a ray of light, like a torch passing, and the other black stone pillar closest to it was lit up at once, just like that, the black stone pillars seemed to turn into white glow sticks, and finally the innermost black stone pillar in front of Ye Chao was also lit. That "buzzing" sound was in my ears.
When these lit black stone pillars were all connected in series, Ye Chao was visible to the naked eye, and a white light mask was formed, limited to the outermost stone pillar, covering the stone platform, and at the same time, the yellow gas that had spread in just now was immediately gone.
"Safety pod mechanism?" Ye Chao feels that this is like the last line of protection that is automatically activated in modern technology.
However, the changes in the stone pillars did not end, and a burst of light suddenly flickered on each stone pillar, and then a series of figures appeared standing on the stone pillars. There are men with high crowns, scholars with scrolls in their hands, old men dressed as fishermen with fishing rods on their shoulders, swordsmen with swords in their hands and pointing forward, women with flower baskets in their arms, and children carved in pink......
"Fight together! Fight together! Suddenly, a sound like Huang Zhong Da Lu will sound in the light mask, different voices, different tones of shouting at the same time, and at the same time, all the stone pillars on the figures pose in a variety of different shapes, Ye Chao is dazzled, but at the same time, Ye Chao also found that although the figure is different, but everyone's fingers are lit up at the same time A white light spot the size of a grain of rice is lit up, and then these light points converge along the light towards one of the stone pillars, the light and shadow on the stone pillar is a tall man with a high crown and a long hair on his chest, When all the points of light converged on the stone pillar at the man's feet, the tall man looked up to the sky and smiled: "Fellow Daoists, I should be the first to go!" ”
The tall man's figure flashed, like a meteor flying out of the light shield from the stone pillar, and then like a firework, it suddenly dispersed, and the high place that was originally covered by yellow clouds trembled. Although there was no sound, Ye Chao felt that a stream of air was speeding in front of him, and the yellow gas that was originally attached to the light mask was blown away at once, and a clean area appeared between the light mask and the yellow gas, and those yellow gases seemed to be separated by something and did not continue to spread in the direction of the stone platform. As the tall man disappeared, the black stone pillar under his feet also shattered, turning into a pile of rubble. The figures that appeared on those stone pillars slowly dissipated, and the white light on the black stone pillars slowly faded and returned to their original state.
Ye Chao was deeply shocked by what he saw in front of him, although he didn't know where these characters were sacred, but he could feel their momentum and calmness of working together and dying generously.
At the same time, Ye Chao also had a lot of questions.
"What is a demon? There is no such record in the "Huanyu Collection"? Is there still an angel who can't make it? Ye Chao was puzzled.
"This is obviously the place where the Cave Heaven Treasure died, and the ruins found in the Dead Land can still be imagined, it is possible that when the Death Land was formed, there was a certain sect here, and it was eroded by the Dead Land if it was unlucky, according to the record of the "Huanyu Collection", if the death place of the Cave Heaven Treasure is not handled well, it is possible to expand! But how does it have to do with demons? Ye Chao shook his head, he really couldn't figure it out, for no reason, Ye Chao suddenly thought that the boss Zheng he met in the town said: "The older the cultivation realm, the more valuable the yellow calendar!" ”
Ye Chao slowly walked out of the stone platform, carefully exploring the area that had just formed, sure enough, there was no toxic gas in the area, but I don't know how long it can last, but it is a good thing for Ye Chao, this area is equivalent to expanding the radius of the stone platform outward by a full hundred meters, Ye Chao quickly tied the rope tied to the pillar of the central stone platform to a stone slab, and moved to the edge of the new area, so that the area he can explore will become larger.
In the next time, Ye Chao started to explore the area with the stone tablet as a starting point every time, and almost every once in a while, the phantom on the stone pillar would appear, and then he also rushed into the air, turned into fireworks, and used the stone platform as a dot to expand the area without poisonous gas outward, but the distance of expansion was not as obvious as the first time, and it was obviously subject to great resistance. When all the stone pillars on the stone platform have all turned into rubble, the area of the hurry is just expanded to the stone stele, with the stone stele as a circle, at this time the expanded area is already considerable, and those who originally only had a faint yellow poison gas were isolated from the outside world, and the color became dark yellow and the yellow cumulus cloud above the head was almost the same.
Ye Chao dragged his tired body back from the outside, and according to the established plan, he drew a circle to explore in the direction of the stone monument and the stone platform as a straight line, although the scope of exploration became a lot larger, but unfortunately he still found nothing. And Ye Chao has a hunch that the non-toxic area that exists now will definitely not last long, although Ye Chao doesn't know what causes the current situation, but from Ye Chao's point of view, it is like the stone platform suddenly released the stored energy at one time, just like the fireworks are bright but not long. When this non-toxic area began to shrink, Ye Chao estimated that the sheltering function of the stone platform would also disappear completely.
Ye Chao walked to the stele again, slowly stroked the cold stele with his hand, and looked carefully, the off-duty part of the stele was probably in the position of the word "innocent", and there were many dark red traces, which was still the blood stains that Ye Chao spurted out at the beginning, and this was the first time that Ye Chao's hands were not covered with evil qi and touched the stele.
The heavy yellow gas outside the stele suddenly boiled as if it was alive, Ye Chao even felt that he was hallucinating, feeling that those yellow gases formed a personal face, and he was desperately squeezing towards the non-toxic area, but because he couldn't get through it because he was blocked by something, a human face was superimposed on a human face, and it became extremely hideous and terrifying.
Ye Chao was so frightened that he took a few steps back, and the "buzzing ....." sounded again, and an incomparably bright pillar of light gushed out from the center of the stone platform, but this time it did not rush out of the light mask, but took the highest part of the light mask as the apex and then flowed down, Ye Chao stood on the edge of the stone tablet, and a picture appeared in front of Ye Chao's eyes.
A bright moon, what a bright moon that he hadn't seen for a long time, Ye Chao couldn't even believe his eyes, and rubbed his eyes vigorously with his hands. Then a high mountain appeared, and the mountain was under the moon, and a huge sycamore tree stood on the top of the mountain, and the moon seemed to hang on the branches of the sycamore. It was as if a gust of wind was blowing, blowing a few wisps of residual clouds, covering the moonlight a little, and the mountain wind blew the dense forest in the mountain at the same time, and the rustling sound was transmitted to Ye Chao's ears as if it was unreal. The mountains and rivers shine together. The next moment, the scene of heaven and earth suddenly turned over like a copper coin, and there was no more the huge plane tree standing on the top of the mountain, and a young man wearing a wide white robe and wide sleeves fluttering in the wind appeared, and his body was huge and cross-legged on a golden leaf, his body was as big as a mountain, towering and towering, and those golden leaves were like a sea. The young man's face is so young, but his expression looks extremely old, especially a pair of eyes, one golden and one snow-white, like the sun and the moon hanging together.
"Innocent as me!" An undoubted voice suddenly resounded here, and the sun and moon's eyes looked in the direction of Ye Chao, at this time, Ye Chao felt an indescribable coercion that made all the evil pills in his body stop rotating, and Ye Chao couldn't move, but this coercion came and went quickly, and there was no hostility towards Ye Chao, Ye Chao moved his steps slightly.
"Innocent!" The voice sounded, a kind of helplessness, a faint sadness diffused from the two words, Ye Chao realized that the illusion of this giant was not looking at himself, but staring at the word innocence on the stone tablet.
