Chapter 129: Nine Shadow Dragons
Tortoiseshell eats poisonous ants.
The spirit worm list ranked thirteenth.
This insect is extremely poisonous, it eats everything, once bitten, the monks below the Ning Yuan Realm will be killed almost instantly!
And the armor behind them that looks like a tortoise shell is difficult to hurt by swords, difficult to invade by fire and water, and the defense can be described as very strong, even if the monks of the Ning Yuan Realm encounter swarms of tortoiseshell devouring poisonous ants, they can only retreat.
In terms of ferocity, it is only the twelfth gold eater.
But fortunately, the latter is rumored to have been brought into the immortal realm by a monk surnamed Han, so there is no need to worry about encountering it in this realm!
At this time, the group of tortoiseshell devouring ants that appeared in the passage was almost no less than 100,000 at a glance!
Even if it were a monk from the Yudan Realm, it would probably be quite tricky, but it was no wonder that the three White Bone Venerables were so embarrassed.
And that's not all.
Recalling the experience along the way, all kinds of traps, poisonous insects and beasts emerged in an endless stream, and the three of them wanted to cry without tears.
If it weren't for the advanced cultivation, I'm afraid that he would have turned into a cold corpse by this moment.
In the face of the other two people constantly cursing, the White Bone Venerable, who knew that he was in the wrong, did not dare to say anything, and his heart was also extremely upset.
He didn't know what was going on, and in the previous investigations, it was clear that there had been no such situation.
It always feels like something is deliberately targeting yourself and others in secret.
Before he could think about it, there was another accident ahead.
I saw that at the corner of the passage, two demon beasts with lion-headed eagle bodies walked out one after another, exuding the ninefold aura of the Ning Yuan Realm!
Looking at the three people who appeared in front of them, the two demon beasts showed killing intent in their eyes, and they attacked without hesitation, opening their mouths and spewing out blazing flames!
Meanwhile.
The tortoiseshell devouring ant colony in the rear also caught up.
The three White Bone Venerables who were sandwiched in the passage, facing the situation of a tiger in front and a wolf in the back, their faces suddenly changed drastically.
……
……
The words are divided into two ends.
Compared with the dire situation on their side, Zhou Fan's side is obviously much more "peaceful".
When the bronze door opened, I couldn't wait to step inside.
What appeared in front of me was an extremely wide stone hall.
And in the depths of the stone hall, there was a huge black shadow!
"This is ......" Zhou Fan's pupils shrank, as if he saw something incredible.
I saw that the black shadow had a tiger's whiskers and a manetail, a body as long as a snake, scales like a fish, horns like a deer, and claws like an eagle, clearly a giant dragon that only existed in mythology in the past!
However, this dragon is dead at this moment.
A thousand-meter greatsword thrust through its back, pinning it to the ground.
Through the wound, you can vaguely see the purple-black bones inside, obviously it has been dead for I don't know how many years, and even the flesh and blood inside have long been decayed.
When he came closer, the appearance of the dragon was also displayed in front of him.
I saw that it was a gorgeous purple gold color all over, as if carved with the best amethyst in the world, far more majestic and majestic than imagined.
Even if most of the body is entrenched together at this moment, the body is thousands of meters tall!
If it is all extended, the body length is estimated to be at least more than 10,000 meters, and the scale armor on it alone is several times larger than his entire person, even if he is dead now, he still exudes a suffocating aura!
It can be imagined that if the other party is still alive now, what a terrifying existence it should be.
The Great Demon of the Dan Realm? Or the demon king of the infant realm? Or the Demon Emperor who has entered the Divine Realm?
I really don't know who it is, and I can actually kill it here!
"Demon Slayer Sword?"
At this time, Zhou Fan's eyes were suddenly attracted by the giant sword, especially the three big characters engraved on the hilt, which made him feel as if he had heard of it somewhere.
After thinking about it for a long time, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind.
If I'm not mistaken, I seem to have read it in a miscellaneous article at the beginning, and one of the swords held by the ancestor who founded Qingxuanzong seems to be called this name!
Then that is to say.
The one who killed this giant dragon was none other than the ancestor of Qingxuanzong!
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that it was possible, and with the other party's cultivation comparable to that of an "immortal", it should not be difficult to do this.
It's just that there is one thing he can't figure out, that is, why he left the body of the dragon here, and deliberately built such an underground palace?
What exactly is the purpose of this?
And what really happened back then?
With a hint of doubt, Zhou Fan tentatively stepped forward, but before he could get closer, a layer of light curtain suddenly appeared in the air, blocking it out.
The light curtain seems to be weak, but it is extremely tough, no matter how hard you try, you can't take a step forward, obviously there is a formation of no low grade here.
Seeing this scene, Zhou Fan scratched his head, as if he remembered something, and took out the token again and probed it tentatively.
Sure enough, this time there was no more obstruction, and I easily passed through that layer of light curtain.
"Uh... Coincidental, it should just be a coincidence. ”
Shaking his head, Zhou Fan continued to walk forward.
There were no more accidents during this period, and soon they came to the bottom of the dragon corpse.
When you get closer, you can feel its majesty and power more intuitively.
In the face of such a terrifying existence, he was as small as a weak ant standing under the mighty mountains.
At this time, not far from the dragon corpse, a hundred-meter altar was unexpectedly found.
It's just that because the dragon is too conspicuous, everything else is subconsciously ignored, so I haven't noticed it before.
Stepping over the ninety-nine eighty-one steps, Zhou Fan stood on the altar and found that there was nothing special on it, just an ordinary wooden table.
On top of the wooden table, several yellowed books are displayed.
was about to step forward, but was blocked by a light curtain.
Pouting, Zhou Fan skillfully took out the token and pressed it on the light curtain, and then successfully entered it.
Somewhat excited, he went to the wooden table, picked up one of the books and looked at it a few times, but when he saw the contents clearly, his face suddenly showed disappointment.
This is not the secret method of divine skill that I think, or the Heavenly Rank Method, it is just a simple record of some information about this dragon.
According to the description in the book, he finally understood the ins and outs of this place.
Things have to go back to the ancient period when the two races of ancient people and demons fought.
At that time, human beings, in addition to the natural enemy demon race, a large number of demon beasts that were eroded by demonic qi were also a big problem.
Among them, the four demon emperors are the most brutal and terrifying!
And the Nine Shadows Dragon in front of him is one of the Four Great Demon Emperors!
In ancient times, it was definitely a real demon beast overlord, and for countless years, I don't know how many human powerhouses were devoured by it.
Until that day, the ancestor of Qingxuanzong successfully broke through into the divine realm, personally shot to eliminate the demon, and fought fiercely for several months with one person and one dragon, and finally the ancestor narrowly won a move and killed it here!
However, although the true dragon is dead, the dragon soul is immortal.
And the large amount of demonic energy that escaped from the dragon corpse also caused a lot of trouble at that time.
Even with the ancestor's heavenly cultivation, there was no good solution, so he could only suppress it to the depths of the earth, leaving the sword to slowly wear away its immortal dragon soul.
After a long period of time, until today, most of the dragon souls have basically been worn out by the sword intent, but there are still a small number of stubborn resistance left.
The dragon roar I heard before was the last trace of unwillingness left by the Nine Shadows Xuanlong.
As for this prison, it was built later.
Not only to solve Danfeng's troubles, but the main reason is to use erysipelas to eliminate those scattered demonic qi.
Seeing this, Zhou Fan couldn't help but think of the colorful poisonous spider he had encountered before.
Obviously, it should be the product of demonic qi erosion, no wonder it is so tricky.
It is also worth mentioning.
Except for the place where the demon dragon is kept, the upper two floors of the entire Dan Prison are just incidental.
The third layer where the demon dragon is located is the real core of Dan Prison.
This is also why, even a vicious criminal like the White Bone Venerable is only imprisoned in the second layer in the end.
As for why he was imprisoned here.
Zhou Fan thought about it, and always felt that things seemed to be a little strange.
It's as if there is a pair of invisible hands behind it, silently manipulating all this.
At this time, Qiu Li's old face suddenly came to mind.
A hint of suspicion flashed in his eyes, and he inexplicably felt that all this might be inseparable from the old guy.
It's just that at the moment, I don't have any evidence to prove this.
Even if you want to ask, you can only wait until you leave this place first.
But then again.
If it really has something to do with the old guy, then he must have some kind of purpose in mind, so he sent himself here.
You can't always turn into the power of the infant realm, just idle and bored, right?
Thinking of this, Zhou Fan couldn't help but be interested, picked up the books again, and began to read them word by word, looking through them carefully.
Soon, he also made some discoveries.
In one of the books, a few of the sentences implicitly mention a secret.
The reason why the Nine Shadows Xuanlong was able to dominate one side back then made the entire human race quite a headache, in addition to its own extremely strong strength, the main reason was because it had an extremely powerful secret treasure in its hands!
However, the specific secret treasure is not mentioned in the book.
But what can be known is that this secret treasure did not disappear with the death of the Nine Shadows Mystery Dragon, but was hidden by it in some way!
This also means:
At this time, it is very likely that the secret treasure is hidden somewhere in the body of the Nine Shadows Xuanlong!
Perhaps the reason why the ancestor did not destroy the corpse of the demon dragon back then was also because he had the idea of finding the secret treasure.
It's just that after so many years, the demon dragon is still suppressed here, and it seems that no one has succeeded in finding the secret treasure from beginning to end.
This also makes people wonder, is the so-called secret treasure real?
Today.
If it weren't for the ancient records, I'm afraid there would be few people left who knew about it.
After understanding this, Zhou Fan suddenly became a little interested.
After all, everyone has ever imagined that they are the child of destiny, what if they are lucky and they are really found by themselves?
Immediately, he rubbed his hands excitedly, put down the book, jumped off the altar, and came to the close side of the demon dragon's body.
I don't know if it's because of the remnants of the dragon soul, but as I get closer to the demon dragon, a throbbing that seems to be absent gradually emerges from the bottom of my heart.
Although the demon dragon in front of him was motionless, and even his body had been corroded by the years, the hideous dragon head inexplicably gave people the illusion that this guy might recover at any time and devour himself in one bite.
He didn't rush to touch the dragon corpse.
Even if the other party has been dead for countless years, it is not too careful to be cautious in the face of such a terrifying existence.
Taking a deep breath, Zhou Fan tentatively separated his divine sense and carefully touched one of the scale armors.
Wait silently for a moment.
And nothing special happened.
I breathed a sigh of relief in my heart, and my courage gradually became bigger.
A huge divine consciousness emanated, enveloping the dragon body that was 10,000 meters tall little by little!
The divine consciousness is from the outside to the inside, and no subtleties have been missed.
However, after scanning back and forth dozens of times, he still didn't find anything suspicious, as if lying in front of him was just a residual corpse.
Unwillingly, I tried it a dozen more times, and the result was the same.
This is not unexpected.
After all, if it was so easy to find, then it would not be possible to stay until today.
But even so, Zhou Fan's face couldn't help but show a touch of disappointment.
"Well, it seems that this thing has nothing to do with me."
One last glance at the majestic dragon body, he shook his head and stepped forward to leave.
However, at this moment, an excited voice suddenly sounded.
"Nine Demon Dragons!"
"Sure enough, it's the Nine Demon Dragons recorded in the ancient books!"
Looking at the voice, Zhou Fan's face couldn't help but change slightly, and he secretly scolded in his heart, how could it be so coincidental!
I saw that in the other corner of the stone hall, several embarrassed figures came out of it, who else could it be if it wasn't the White Bone Venerable?
At this moment, their bodies were extremely embarrassed, their bodies were covered with scars of different sizes, and their faces were covered with black gas, which was obviously deeply poisonous.
Especially Qian Jizi and Wan Poison Mother-in-law, the two of them are missing a hand and a foot, and their breath is also very weak, and they don't know what they have experienced during this time.
"That kid isn't dead yet!"
At this time, the three of them also found Zhou Fan standing in the distance, and their eyes showed a touch of disbelief.
You must know that along the way, the life and death crises encountered alone cannot be counted on two hands.
If it weren't for the strength of their cultivation and a little luck, I'm afraid they would have died by now, and even their ashes would have been raised.
originally thought that even if Zhou Fan was lucky enough to escape the siege of poisonous insects and escape to the bottom, he would definitely not be able to pass through that terrifying passage.
However, the scene in front of them undoubtedly slapped them in the face.
Especially when I saw his "calm and relaxed" appearance, and then compared with the embarrassed appearance of himself and others, there was obviously a world of difference between the two.
"White Bone, where is the way out you are talking about?"
At this time, Qian Jizi and Wan Poison Mother-in-law glanced around, and when they saw the huge dragon corpse, their faces first showed shock, but they quickly looked away without care.
After all, for the two of them, nothing else matters now, the most important thing is to flee from this place as soon as possible.
Otherwise, when the people of Qingxuanzong react, it will be the time of their own death!
However, when he looked left and right, he found that the entire stone hall had no place to leave, and his face immediately couldn't help but become ugly, suspecting that he had been deceived by the guy from the White Bone Venerable.
"Don't worry, no matter what you say, the deity won't joke with his life."
In the face of the questioning tone of the two, the White Bone Venerable was not in a hurry, his eyes stared directly in the direction of the Nine Shadows Xuanlong, and there was a touch of fanaticism in his eyes.
"Besides, isn't the way out of this place right now?"
