19. Netherworld Source Cave
Teng Zhan opened Chen Su and Wu Bingyu, and took advantage of the battle between the two demon beasts to snatch the precious medicine Shi Nian Cao, the two demon beasts have been confronting each other for Shi Nian Cao for several days, but they were reaped by Teng Zhan, and naturally refused to give up, so they made a lot of movements, but their strength is much weaker for Teng Zhan after all, so although he has experienced a little setback, Teng Zhan still escaped safely from the pursuit of the two demon beasts, but on this Yekun Mountain, he did not dare to kill the demon beasts of this level at will, in case of attracting the beasts, it would be a great troubleγ The remaining two demon beasts had lost the Ten Nian Grass, and they couldn't find Teng Zhan, so they had to release their anger all over the mountain.
After Teng Zhan met Chen Su and the others at the top of the mountain, he saw that it was not too early, and proposed to set off towards the Netherworld Cave. Wu Bingyu was already anxious about saving her father, and the closer she got to the Netherworld, the more anxious she became. Chen Su was relatively calm on the outside, constantly probing the surrounding movements along the way, but in his heart, he knew that the strangeness of Kunshan this night was bringing him all kinds of uneasiness.
The three of them walked on the top of the mountain for almost two pillars of incense, and a circular stone altar with a radius of nearly 100 zhang appeared in front of them. Ascending the altar, Chen Su completely dispersed his spiritual power, and within the range of more than 100 zhang around, it was all in his senses, and the strange thing was that within this range of induction, except for the three of them, he could no longer find a little breath of life.
"This is it. Teng Zhan stopped and looked around, "The entrance to the Netherworld Cave is on top of this altar, if we find the entrance, we can rescue the Wu Patriarch." β
Wu Bingyu also looked around carefully, but except for a platform the size of a zhang in the center, there was nothing else, all the scenes were in full view, how could there be a trace of the cave entrance? β
Teng Zhan is also at a loss, "The master said that it should not be wrong to be here, but the specific situation, the master did not explain in detail, only said that he should be able to find it here, but the mystery of Kun Mountain this night, I think you also know the Tao, and the Netherworld Cave is even more famous for changing color, and the master has never been here." β
Chen Su probed for a long time, but there was still no result, not to mention a demon beast, not even a bird, or even an insect, had not appeared in this vicinity, such a strange place, it should not be far from the Netherworld Cave. Chen Su took a step forward and cautiously walked to the central altar, the wide bluestone altar has experienced the erosion of wind and rain for many years, and has been densely covered with countless cracks, large and small.
Chen Su made a discovery, and at this time, Teng Zhan and Wu Bingyu were also carefully searching the places above the altar. With Chen Su's greeting, Teng Zhan and Wu Bingyu came to the altar, and the three of them carefully blew off the dust on the altar, and at the edge of the altar, a shadow was written with a few small characters in the Netherworld Source Cave.
"It seems that the secret lies above this altar. Teng Zhan walked around the altar, constantly tapping everywhere, looking for the mechanism button, but no matter how he did it, this large piece of bluestone just didn't move.
Chen Su frowned, stretched out his hand and stroked the letterings, "Huh" Chen Su was shocked, these letterings looked obviously concave, how could they be convex to the touch?
"What's the matter, Brother Chen, what did you find?"
"Brother Teng, when you touch these carvings, they seem to be protruding. Chen Su withdrew his hand and stared at the bluestone altar tightly.
"Oh, there is such a thing?" Teng Zhan said, also put his hand on the inscription, stroked it for a moment, and shook his head gently, "Brother Chen, if you touch it carefully, this inscription is indeed concave." β
Wu Bingyu blinked her big eyes, seeing that Chen Su and Teng Zhan were both serious, no one seemed to be joking, but the conclusions of the two were completely opposite, "Let me try it." After Wu Bingyu finished speaking, he stepped forward and reached out to touch the few engraved words, as soon as the slender jade hand fell, there seemed to be a gust of wind blowing, and the word "hole" at the bottom was blown away like a wisp of fine sand, and disappeared, and then, the "Netherworld" also turned into sand and scattered with the wind. Wu Bingyu took a step back in extreme surprise, and kept repeating in her mouth, "How can this be?"
Chen Su stretched out his hand to hold Wu Bingyu's arm, "Miss Bingyu, don't worry, you take a closer look." β
At this time, the three of them looked at the previous inscription, and in the four words "Netherworld Source Cave" that was originally blown into fine sand by the wind, only the "six" in the lower part of the word "Hades" still existed.
"It seems that the secret should be on this 'six'. Chen Su said, reaching out again, but at this time, he was three points alert, touching his hand, the previous convex feeling was long gone.
"Brother Chen, be careful. Wu Bingyu looked at Chen Su's expression, and also knew that there was something strange in it.
Chen Su glanced at Wu Bingyu, "Miss Bingyu, you and Brother Teng might as well retreat a little, I think this mechanism is here." β
"Hmm" Wu Bingyu nodded and took five or six steps back, and when Teng Zhan saw this, he also retreated.
Chen Sugan pointed to the point on the word "six", and gently forced, but heard the sound of "click", and the mountain shook and shook in an instant, and the dust was flying. Chen Su stood on the edge of the altar, urging his spiritual vitality to the extreme at the same time, feeling the changes around him, "Left front!" With the detection of spiritual power, Chen Su looked at the ground, more than thirty zhang away in front of the left, the bluestone fell, and a wide hole appeared.
"Right front!" Similarly, a hole appeared in the front right.
"Brother Chen, look, there is also a hole on the left!"
"Right!"
In just a few breaths, on the altar with a radius of 100 zhang, around the central altar, six wide openings appeared, and the location of these openings happened to form a six-pointed star around the altar.
After a few moments, the shaking stopped, and the three of them looked at the six holes that had just appeared, but there was no response, and the "six" on the altar also dispersed with the wind, but other than that, nothing seemed to have happened. Chen Su probed again, and under the six holes, it stretched out in a winding way, seemingly endless.
Teng Zhan patted Chen Su on the shoulder, "Brother Chen, since you have found the entrance to the cave, next, you can choose one first." β
"What does Brother Teng mean?" Chen Suzheng didn't know where these six holes came from, but he felt more and more uneasy in his heart, and when he hesitated, he was interrupted by Teng Zhan.
Teng Zhan smiled, "You have also seen the situation here, there are six entrances to this Netherworld Cave, if we try them one by one, I don't know how much time it will take to delay the Dao, in case this Wu patriarch and the elders have three longs and two shorts, wouldn't it be in vain for us to work hard." So what I mean, we might as well act separately and choose one place for each of us to enter, so that we can find the Wu patriarch as soon as possible. β
"This..."Chen Su frowned slightly, this Teng Zhan had to act alone from the beginning, I really don't know what he was thinking in his heart, not to mention that there was the strength of the Black Sand King at this time, just with the weirdness of this night Kun Mountain, at this time, they acted separately and dispersed the strength, it didn't seem to be a wise move, and the strength of Wu Bingyu was obviously not suitable for acting alone, "Brother Teng, there are many differences in the geography here, and if we are separated like this, it is very likely that we will be broken by the enemy." β
"Enemy? Brother Chen laughed, there is not even a demon beast here, and even if there is an enemy who can come here, it is only a form and qi realm, is there any threat to such an enemy to Brother Chen?" Teng Zhan said, smiling contemptuously, "Besides, I don't have that much time to waste here, if you think it's dangerous, you might as well walk in one place, I'll go to a cave alone." After Teng Zhan finished speaking, he took a big stride towards a hole on the left, walked a few steps, and suddenly stopped, "If you are really afraid of any accidents, you can also stay here and wait for me, I didn't plan to bring you here." After saying that, he went straight to the entrance of the cave without looking back.
Teng Zhan walked a little farther before Wu Bingyu muttered in a low voice, "Why is this person like this, the wind and rain are gusting for a while." Having said that, her heart was extremely uncomfortable, and the feeling of being looked down upon was really uncomfortable, but firstly, she was really weak, and secondly, Teng Zhan was contributing to the Iron Desert Clan and her father, so she had to endure it.
"Forget it, Miss Bingyu, Brother Teng has this temper, and you don't need to worry about him. Chen Su said, smiling kindly at Wu Bingyu.
Wu Bingyu turned his head to look at Chen Su, and after a long time, he smiled sweetly, "You still call me Bingyu, don't call me Miss, our Tiemo Clan is not a big clan, and you call me Bingyu, I feel more cordial." β
"Alright, Bingyu. Wu Bingyu's words suddenly made Chen Su feel a lot more comfortable, "You see if it's time for us to make further plans." β
Wu Bingyu looked around, "Brother Teng went to the west of the cave, if you don't think I'm a burden, let's go to the east of the hole." β
"I've never felt like a burden to you, and you shouldn't think that way in the future. Chen Su said as he identified a few holes, "Let's go, let's go to the east side." β
After Chen Su finished speaking, the two of them walked towards the entrance of the cave in the east together, but in Chen Su's heart, he couldn't figure it out more and more about this Teng Zhan, Teng Luo is Bingyu's uncle, it stands to reason that he should sincerely help the Tie Mo clan, so Teng Zhan sent by him should also be a reliable person, but Teng Zhan is so alone, if he is not arrogant, he has a plan, but looking at Teng Zhan's behavior of supporting others before and taking precious medicine alone, it doesn't look like a brainless person, this thing is really nerve-wracking.
