Chapter 558: Black Ghost King Tong Kui
Chapter 558: King Tong Kui
Under the guidance of the Horned Demon King, the Leaf of Life galloped towards its destination.
Its destination is the agreed place between the Ox Horn Demon King and the Black Ghost King Tong Kui, outside the Yin Death Ruins.
Since obtaining many treasures in the Yin Death Ruins, Tong Kui has never forgotten the other treasures hidden in the Yin Death Ruins, so he quickly moved to the periphery of the Yin Death Ruins, found a safe place, hid, and secretly contacted the strong people in various places, preparing to explore the Yin Death Ruins again, go deep into them, and get more treasures.
And the Horned Demon King is one of the strong helpers selected by Tong Kui, in order to win over the Horned Demon King, Tong Kui spared no expense to send a leaf of life to refine it and enhance his strength.
But what Tong Kui never expected was that his move was just to make a wedding dress for Lu Tianyu.
Along the way, in order to curry favor with Lu Tianyu, the Ox Horn Demon King took the initiative to tell Lu Tianyu a lot of things about Tong Kui, including his cultivation, conduct, and even living habits, as long as he knew about it, he didn't hide anything, and told the truth.
"That Tong Kui really only has the strength of the early peak realm of the God of War?" After listening to the Horned Demon King's story, Lu Tianyu couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, and asked in disbelief.
"Yes, master, the villain only separated from him half a year ago, and at that time, he only had the peak realm of the early stage of the God of War. The Horned Demon King nodded.
"Then is it possible for him to advance to the mid-stage realm of the God of War within half a year?" Lu Tianyu was still not very relieved.
"This shouldn't be possible, master, you know, it will take at least nearly a hundred years to advance from the early stage of the God of War to the middle stage of the God of War, and this is only half a year, how can he advance?" Hearing this, the Horned Demon King immediately shook his head.
Lu Tianyu nodded, he also felt that this matter was unlikely, after all, after reaching the realm of the God of War, every time he advanced to the next level, the required battle qi was an extremely terrifying amount, if there was no great opportunity, it would be difficult to advance to the next level.
"Apart from you this time, has Tong Kui contacted anyone else?" After thinking for a moment, Lu Tianyu continued to ask.
"Well, there seem to be a few other people, but the villain doesn't know who they are, but I just heard Tong Kui mention that he will find as many helpers as possible during this time, and the success rate of entering the Yin Death Ruins to hunt for treasures will be even greater!"
"Okay, I know, remind me when you arrive at your destination!" Lu Tianyu didn't say anything more, and after giving a command, he slowly closed his eyes and began to concentrate on cultivation, before finding Tong Kui, he had to maintain strong energy.
The Horned Demon King replied respectfully, and immediately sat cross-legged beside Lu Tianyu, opened his bronze bell eyes, and scanned the four directions to protect Lu Tianyu.
Time flashed, and two days passed in a blink of an eye.
In the early morning of the third day, when the sky was just revealing the white of the fish's belly, Lu Tianyu, who was cultivating, heard the call of the Ox Horn Demon King in his ears: "Master, wake up, it's here!"
When Lu Tianyu heard this, he immediately opened his eyes, and when he looked at it, he couldn't help but show a shocked face.
Ahead, too, was an endless swamp, covered with countless ink-black silt, bubbles, like boiling water, constantly bubbling out, emitting bursts of fishy smell.
In the sky above this swamp, the perennial black fog is shrouded, and it will not disperse for a long time, and even the sight has been greatly affected here, with the strength of Lu Tianyu's current strength, he can only see the range of thousands of zhang in front of him, and he can't reach it any farther.
"Tong Kui is in this swamp?" Looking around, no clues were found, and Lu Tianyu immediately asked suspiciously.
"Yes, master, Tong Kui is as cunning as a fox and suspicious, so the hiding place is also very secretive, if he doesn't send someone to pick him up, outsiders can't find his hiding place at all, the villain has just secretly sent a message to tell him to send someone to pick us up, we just need to wait for a while!" Hearing this, the Horned Demon King hurriedly explained in detail.
"Yes. Lu Tianyu nodded, waved his hand, and immediately pasted the leaf of life on the right arm of the Ox Horn Demon King.
"Master, who are you?" Seeing this, the Oxhorn Demon King couldn't help but be stunned.
"In order not to make Tong Kui suspicious, this leaf of life will be handed over to you for temporary safekeeping!" Lu Tianyu heard this, and immediately said lightly.
"The master is wise, the villain knows what to do!" Hearing this, the Horned Demon King suddenly nodded in understanding, and couldn't help muttering in his heart, it seems that this Lu Tianyu is indeed doing things without leakage, and his scheming is no less than those old monsters who have survived for countless thousands of years.
The Oxhorn Demon King raised his left hand and patted it gently, and the leaf of life suddenly burrowed into the flesh and blood of his right arm, forming a lifelike green leaf pattern, which was particularly eye-catching.
Soon, the swamp in front of it was churning and tearing through it, parting a wide avenue.
An evil ghost about two meters tall stepped on a black cloud and floated there.
"Subordinate Oregon, the little leader under the command of the King, meet the senior of the Oxhorn Demon King!" As soon as the tall demon stepped forward, he immediately bowed respectfully and saluted.
"No need to be polite, take us to meet the Black Ghost King!" the Horned Demon King waved his hand lightly.
"Who is this?" Oregon swept his gaze, locked on Lu Tianyu, and immediately asked with a suspicious face.
"He's a friend invited by Lao Niu to help, and he won't lead the way?" the Horned Demon King stiffened his face and snorted coldly.
"Yes, yes, please come with the little one!" Oregon didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly made a gesture of respectful invitation, quickly turned around, stepped on the black cloud, and led the way in front.
Along the way, Oregon kept waving the black broadsword in his hand, causing the black fog to sweep to both sides, keeping the avenue clear.
After Mo Yue took a stick of incense, a small black island in the swamp finally appeared in front of him, but this small island was extremely low, only the part of the height of a person was exposed outside the swamp, and most of the island was buried in the black silt.
"Two seniors, the master is in the cave under this island, please!" Oregon explained, slowly landing on the island, casually pinching out a few strange ancient seals, turning into several black runes, hitting the tip of the island.
"Zaza!" Suddenly, a piercing sound like the friction of gold and iron came, and the tip of the island was actually split in two, slowly moving to the sides, revealing a huge black crack.
"Two seniors, please!" Oregon jumped into the crack and disappeared without a trace.
Lu Tianyu and the others also jumped into the crack and descended rapidly.
It took about five minutes for Lu Tianyu's feet to land steadily.
Under the sweep of his gaze, Lu Tianyu immediately opened his mouth in shock, and he couldn't close it for a long time, only to see that this place was also a huge underground cave, with the passages in front of him, crisscrossing and extending in all directions, like a labyrinth in front of him.
This was not the reason for Lu Tianyu's shock, what surprised him was that these passages were all artificially developed.
"What a big stroke, it seems that this Tong Kui is really cunning as a fox, and even the place where he lives is like a labyrinth, if an unfamiliar person rashly breaks into this place, he will definitely be trapped here for life and death, and there is no return!" Lu Tianyu muttered secretly in his heart, faintly having a trace of jealousy towards Tong Kui.
"Two seniors, please come with the villain, there are thousands of passages here, there is only one correct route, if you enter the wrong passage, it will trigger many forbidden traps, even if it is a strong person in the early realm of the God of War, you will be trapped alive!" Oregon explained with a dewful eye, and took the lead in stepping into the three hundred and sixth passages in front of him, and quickly moved forward.
The two didn't dare to slack off and quickly followed.
After going around for a long time, Lu Tianyu almost dizzy, and then his eyes lit up, and a huge natural cave appeared.
Countless white stalagmites hang upside down, like a ghostly axe, extremely dazzling, the four walls of the cave, are covered with countless glowing white stone beads, illuminate the whole cave as bright as day.
This cave covers an area of about 1,000 square meters, and there are all kinds of stone beds and stone benches in it, and countless male and female ghost servants are all silently busy with their own affairs, some cleaning, and some scrubbing those glowing white stone beads...... Each performs its duties in an orderly manner.
Lu Tianyu's gaze swept away, but he didn't notice Tong Kui's existence, and immediately secretly glanced at the Oxhorn Demon King beside him.
"Brother Tong, the old cow is here, and you haven't come out to see it?" Seeing this, the Oxhorn Demon King understood this, and quickly poured the battle qi into his voice and let out a shocking scream.
All the busy ghost servants in the cave were frightened by the scream of the Horned Demon King, and their legs weakened, and they looked over one by one in shock.
"Haha, Brother Oxhorn, forgive me, the eldest brother was busy entertaining a few distinguished guests just now, please forgive me for the neglect!" As soon as the words of the Horned Demon King fell, he saw that the stone wall on the east side of the cave suddenly separated to both sides, revealing a stone room about 100 meters in it, and a black-faced man, with three people, stepped out.
This is the black-faced man, it is the Wang Tong Kui, a pair of small triangular eyes, slightly squinted, emitting bursts of poisonous cold light, under his gaze, people can't help but suddenly rise a kind of illusion of being stared at by poisonous snakes.
At this moment, although this Tong Kui is in daxiao, there is no smile on his face, his thin lips are pursed, and at a glance, he knows that this person is definitely that sour and mean person.
The most distinctive thing is Tong Kui's thick and black eyebrows, like two big knives, obliquely into the sideburns, faintly diffusing a monstrous and fierce aura.
There are three people behind Tong Kui, and on the right is a scholar-like man with a white face like jade, holding a black folding fan, and his eyes are cold.
On the left is an old man with white hair and white beard, who looks like a fairy wind and bones, and does not smile.
The third person is a dwarf, with a funny smile on his face, less than a meter tall, standing with Tong Kui and the others, like a child standing in front of adults.
"Old Niu, what do you mean?" Just when Lu Tianyu was secretly looking at Tong Kui and the others, that Tong Kui was staring at Lu Tianyu, his face suddenly turned cold, and the murderous intent in his eyes shot wildly.
"Brother Tong, don't be angry, his name is Lu Tianyu, he is the helper invited by Lao Niu this time, with him, the success rate of our going to the Yin Death Ruins this time will be much greater!" Seeing this, the Oxhorn Demon King hurriedly explained.
