Chapter 86: The Abyss
Liang Yu tried to break free from the monster's restraints, but those joints were extremely sharp, let alone break free, even if he moved slightly, he would be severely cut!
"Chatter... Now you're running away!" said the monster with its salivating mouthparts, "Give me a taste of your superior monk's brains!"
In a hurry, Liang Yu secretly condensed the true yuan: "The inner burning sun, the external abduction blazing wheel." Liang Yu of the Eastern Immortal Sect summoned the Red Crow to come down and come from my body!"
In an instant, a blazing dazzling ball of fire suddenly appeared in his body, making his body look extremely bright and hot from the outside! It was Liang Yu who once again cast the second form of the Taiyi Twelve Secret Techniques - the corona in the face of adversity!
The outer flames of the fire ball continued to poke out tongues of fire around them, and in a single breath, the true fire of the sun blessed by the red black swelled enough to completely envelop Liang Yu, and at the same time burst out with sun-like light and heat!
"Wow!" the multi-handed monster wailed, the green smoke on his exoskeleton-covered body was rising, and the arthropods and limbs continued to fall off Liang Yu's body with flames!
"Zheng!" As soon as Liang Yu, who was shrouded in the corona on his body, got out, he swept his sword at the multi-handed monster with his backhand, and the ugly head immediately rose into the sky with firelight, and his body was quickly burned into charcoal in the firelight!
The cave, which was full of terror and turmoil just now, finally fell silent at this time, Wu Gongxian looked at Liang Yu in disbelief, and the expression on his face became more and more complicated...
Long Jiao let out a long sigh of relief and said, "I didn't expect that in such a short period of time, your cultivation has left me far behind..."
Liang Yu obviously said a little tiredly: "Hehe... It's all progress forced out of desperate situations again and again..."
Long Jiao nodded with some admiration, then looked around and said, "Then the question is back to the beginning, how are we going to get out?
Wu Gongxian suddenly said on the side: "Where did these two centipedes crawl out just now?"
"Above..."Liang Yu said as he looked up.
"There!" Wu Gongxian said in surprise, sure enough, there was a cave at each end of the top of the cave that was enough to pass through the huge centipede, but due to the indiscriminate destruction of the two centipedes just now, the entrance of the cave was almost blocked by rubble, and it couldn't be seen if you didn't look carefully.
Liang Yu looked at the openings at one end of the place and said, "Which way shall we go?"
Wu Gongxian looked up and said, "The two centipedes must be together, then I guess the two cave entrances should lead to the same place, just so high..."
"What you say makes sense!" After Liang Yu finished speaking, he grabbed Wu Gongxian with one hand, jumped up, borrowed strength from a protruding stone on the cave wall in mid-air, and easily jumped onto the top of the cave that was seven or eight stories high, and landed at one of the holes.
After Long Jiao followed and came up, she also took a few centipede arthropodes in her hand, she looked at the hole that was almost sealed and said, "Just use this thing to dig it!"
The entrance to the cave was quickly opened, and the trio walked cautiously inside, holding arthropod torches. The cave that can house the giant centipede is naturally long and spacious, and the inner walls of the cave have been polished to a very smooth surface, presumably because the two centipedes often roam around.
They meander their way down the slope of the cavern, and when the knobs that serve as torches in their hands are almost finished, the tunnel-like cavern finally comes to an end!
Coming out of the cave, they saw a huge cavern, which was many times larger than the cave where they had killed the centipede, and it was almost impossible to see at a glance!
Piles of white pebbles, stalactites and stele pillars can be seen everywhere in the cave, and the surface of the cave wall is also glowing with a layer of faint fluorescence, with the scattered flying fireflies, the whole cave is not very dark.
"Listen! there is the sound of water!" Long Jiao suddenly reminded Liang Yu and Wu Gongxian.
Wu Gongxian said with some excitement: "There is the sound of water, it means that there is a river! The dark river in this cave may be the key for us to get out!"
Liang Yu immediately covered the mouths of the two of them after hearing this, only to hear a lot of rustling sounds nearby, and through those fluorescences, they saw many centipedes, worms and other huge multi-legged creatures of different sizes around them, crawling towards them!
Although these multi-legged reptiles are not as big as the two they have encountered before, they are still very numerous, the compound eyes on their heads are shining with a shimmering green light, and the sickle-like arthropods make a "Caracalla" sound on the ground...
Liang Yu vigilantly observed the movements of those monsters, they didn't seem to have noticed the intruders for the time being, and the reason why they came here was probably because of the pile of half-sized white pebbles, it turned out that those were the eggs of these monsters!
Liang Yu gestured towards Long Jiao and Wu Gongxian, and the three of them carefully hid while looking for the location of the dark river, and it didn't take long for them to find the river with the faint fluorescence, but when they walked down the river for a long time, they were extremely depressed to find that the river actually ended up flowing into a bottomless abyss!
Long Jiao was on the edge of the abyss, looking back at the place full of reptiles she had just walked through, and after making sure that there was no danger around, she cautiously leaned out and looked down at the abyss.
"Senior brother, it's very windy down here, and there seems to be some sound in the wind!" Long Jiao said with her head tilted her head slightly.
"There's a cliff on the other side..."Liang Yu said, and also glanced at the bottom of the abyss, "It's better for us to go upstream, maybe..."
"Ahh
Before Liang Yu finished speaking, he saw that Long Jiao was actually pushed down the abyss by Wu Gongxian!
"Are you crazy?!" Liang Yu looked at Wu Gongxian in shock and anger, "I'll kill you!"
Wu Gongxian smiled playfully and said, "You have the kung fu to kill me, why don't you go down and see if your senior sister is alive or dead?"
At this moment, Liang Yu felt that he and Long Jiao had been greatly insulted, but now was neither the time to calculate, nor the time to take revenge! Since Wu Gongxian dared to push Long Jiao down the abyss in front of Liang Yu, he would definitely not be as weak as he looked!
Liang Yu glared and said, "If I let me see you again, I want your life!"
Wu Gongxian raised his hand in the far-reaching direction unhurriedly, revealing an expression of inviting you into the urn and said, "Go quickly, don't let your senior sister wait in a hurry..."
Liang Yu had no choice but to jump down! Seeing that Liang Yu's figure was instantly engulfed by the darkness of the abyss, Wu Gongxian giggled: "Second and third, you two finally didn't die in vain! Brother, I should be able to go out now!hahaha!"
Liang Yu was on the way to the extremely fast fall, and vaguely saw that there seemed to be a line of fire on the cliff below, and when he soon arrived at the position of the line of fire, he was pleasantly surprised to find that the line of fire was drawn by Long Jiao with the Blood Phoenix Sword all the way on the cliff!
Liang Yu finally felt relieved, and at the same time took out Xuelin, and after making himself fall for a distance, he hovered, and after a while, Long Jiao also slipped down from it little by little.
Although the light was unknown and they couldn't see each other clearly, they could reunite in such a desperate situation, Long Jiao finally couldn't help crying: "Liang Yu..." Are you alright?"
"I'm fine... I'm fine..."Long Jiao sobbed for a while before she reluctantly said: "I didn't expect that kid to actually lie to us!
Liang Yu looked upwards and saw: "You and I have fallen a long distance, this bare cliff is not easy to climb, even if you use your skills, you must always have a place to stay... Why don't you slide down a little bit more, maybe there's another way out of here!"
Long Jiao sobbed again and said: "Anyway, you are a man, I have no idea at this time, everything is up to you! Even if you die, at least you will be with you!"
Liang Yu comforted her and said, "We won't die!"
The two were talking, and suddenly there was a continuous "click" sound from the cliff above, as if many sharp weapons were being chiseled on the cliff one after another! Liang Yu stared at the location where the sound came from, pinched the trick with one hand, and slammed out a fire sickle!
With a "bang", the fire sickle made an explosion a few zhang above his head, and at the flash of the fire, it was a centipede that was bigger than the black-backed centipede just now, and the head of the centipede was actually Wu Gongxian's head!
Liang Yu sneered: "It turned out to be you!"
"Oh my God!" the big centipede let out Wu Gongxian's exclamation, "You didn't fall to your death!"
Liang Yu and Long Jiao took the sword in their hands almost at the same time, and jumped up directly with a fierce force, while the big centipede turned its head and swam desperately upward!
After all, the strength of the arm is limited, so Liang Yu and Long Jiao couldn't catch up with Wu Gongxian at all when they couldn't use their skills, so they could only watch the big centipede climb farther and farther away with a body of flames.
Liang Yu had an idea and shouted towards it: "If you climb up again, I will shoot you to death with a flying sword!"
"The ghost believes you!" Wu Gongxian replied above, but as soon as his words fell, a blue light shot from under the abyss, ruthlessly opening a hole in his huge tail!
The Jiuyang Jade Seal succeeded in one blow, and did not immediately return to Liang Yu's body, but turned into a delicate jade sword that was one finger wide and an inch long, hovering over Wu Gongxian's head, so frightened that Wu Gongxian did not dare to move a little.
"You... What do you want?!" Wu Gongxian said loudly.
Liang Yu said: "It seems that you are already familiar with this place, it is better to take us out honestly!"
Wu Gongxian shouted: "I have already said, I was also harmed by someone, so I came to this ghost place! My second brother and third sister have been harmed by this ghost place and only have a few decades left to cultivate, and now they are not human, and it is all up to me to introduce the monks who came in into the cave and feed them to delay them from becoming smaller!"
"You're selfless!" Liang Yu sneered, "Let me ask you, is there any other place up there, and where is this abyss?"
Wu Gongxian replied, "Above is our lair, and below the abyss there is only a waterhole and an ancient invalid magic circle... I don't think I can fight you, so I want to kill you!"
Liang Yu said: "You carry us to the bottom of the abyss to have a look! If you refuse to come down, I will poke a few more holes in you now!"
"Well... I'm coming down!" Wu Gongxian wriggled his huge body helplessly, slowly swam down, and let Liang Yu and Long Jiao ride on his back.
After about a cup of tea, a glimmer of light suddenly appeared in front of them again, and sure enough, as Wu Gongxian said, there was indeed a waterhole and a stone platform slightly above the ground under this abyss, and on the stone platform, there was an old woman who looked like a withered tree...
