Kawasawa Chapter 25
256, blood and soil, ten thousand sword array
The whole pit was quiet and terrifying, and the sound of footsteps, clothes rubbing and even the slightest breathing could be clearly in my ears.
The green ink staircase spiraled straight down, as if it were endless, I don't know where it leads, what exists in the place that has always been shrouded in darkness? I can't see it clearly, I can't figure it out.
In the passage of time, I have almost stepped on thousands of green ink stone steps, but the scene above and below has not changed in any way.
Upwards, there is a hazy sky with a clearly visible starting point, while below is always a darkness out of sight.
All of this undoubtedly adds a touch of eerie atmosphere to this place.
Just at another big turn, Hai Mingyue suddenly stopped, "It's here." ”
Along with these words, there was also Hai Mingyue's bare hand that was put down from the wall. It was a deliberate or unintentional move she had been doing since she stepped on the stairs.
Xingliuyun looked back and forth, but found that this place was the same as before, except for a distant silence.
Referring to the characteristics of spatial dislocation here, Xingliuyun felt that it was most likely a hidden spatial passage, and immediately asked: "Go and go?"
Hai Mingyue pointed to the hollow area, "Jump down from here." ”
There, darkness swallows up all light, and there is no day to investigate its roots.
After a pause, Hai Mingyue added: "There is no need to withdraw spiritual power this time. ”
“......”
What kind of sin did this really create to jump into this unknown cave again and again!
Of course, no matter how depressed Xingliuyun is in his heart, he still has to jump if he should jump.
This time, I didn't feel like I was falling for as long as I had when I jumped into the well before, and I almost just stepped into the air, and there was immediately a support under my feet.
"It's just, how do you feel soft?" was Xingliuyun's first feeling.
Before he had time to observe the surrounding situation, Xingliuyun first looked at the ground under his feet, which turned out to be uncommon black soil.
The small area occupied by the feet has a more conspicuous height difference compared to the surroundings, and it is almost an inch away from the depression.
Xingliuyun moved away, and found that the place before it was quickly restored to its original state, and before it recovered, there seemed to be a blood-red footprint that flashed away. The speed is so fast that Xingliuyun has an illusion.
Looking at the place where I am standing now, it is exactly the same as the depression.
"The fleeting blood-red ...... just now"
Feeling something, Xingliuyun squatted down and touched the black soil under his feet a few times, except for the slight wetness, there seemed to be no other abnormalities.
It's just that when Xingliuyun withdrew his hand, he found that his fingers were full of red, and that color looked like bright bloodstains.
This made Xingliuyun's heart palpitate for a while, and he was shocked: "Blood soil!"
The blood soil is said to be the product of mutation after the death of large-scale creatures, and its blood is soaked in the soil, which can nourish evil spirits the most, and the place where the blood and soil are will be a place of great evil.
Thinking of the records of blood and soil in ancient books, Xingliuyun couldn't help but have a bad chill, I don't know how many living beings have died in this kind of place, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a cemetery.
"What are you coming to this place to get for?"
"Don't mind it so much, you must know that although the blood and soil are fierce, they can often breed many strange treasures. Hai Mingyue said.
That's right, there is too much resentment and blood power in the blood soil, and in terms of energy alone, it can be regarded as a great tonic.
However, because it is difficult to get rid of the resentment in it, those who use blood and soil in vain are very likely to suffer backlash, lose their minds, and become demons with a single thought.
This is also the main origin of the evil.
Thinking that the place where the white jade is located to nourish blood, it has gone through thousands of ups and downs, but it has never bred blood. And this place ...... I don't know what a tragic past it is.
For these, Xing Liuyun believed that it was impossible for Hai Mingyue, who was a refiner, not to know, but she still resolutely put her mind on this.
Is it the courage of the artist, or is he obsessed with his mind?
In the end, Xingliuyun only held back this sentence: "You are really not normal." ”
Hai Mingyue looked back and smiled, "Pass the award." ”
Was this a compliment in her ears?
It seemed that she was worried that Xingliuyun was guilty, and Hai Mingyue added: "Don't worry, the things nourished in the blood soil are not looked down on by this girl." ”
Xing Liuyun only replied: "You just have to grasp the proportions yourself." ”
Mustard or something, it's not enough, his exercises are inherently restrained from these filthy things, and in the case of spiritual power to protect the body, the obscurity of the outside world can't affect him at all.
Moreover, the blood and soil here are not quite the same as those in the records, and the blood and soil are often tempted by the enchanting temptation to induce the mentally weak to sink into it, and eventually turn into nutrients for the soil, leaving both people and money empty.
But here it is completely restrained, not only will it not bewitch people, but even the smell of blood is not at all.
At first glance, the ones that have just touched your hands look like bright red blood, but if you look closely, you will feel that they are more like a red pigment.
Everything here seems to be hidden under the black soil, "This feeling, as if something suppresses these filthy things, could it be the ban set by the Kawazawa tribe?"
"What's next?" Xingliuyun asked.
The rock walls here are towering, obscuring the sky and the sun, as if you are in a canyon, but there are several gaps, and there are many routes to choose from.
The terrain is wide, and the gaps between them are large, and I don't know if they will be connected to one piece, so if they lead to one place and choose the wrong place, it will be troublesome.
"Well, just follow this thing. ”
But I saw Hai Mingyue casually throw out a short sword, the short sword floated in the air, shrouded in blue light, and the sword body was flat, and the blade pointed to a certain place.
Did Hai Mingyue actually use this short sword as an indicator needle?
"Let's go. ”
Just as Xing Liuyun was thinking about the principle, he suddenly heard Hai Mingyue calling him, so he immediately put down his thoughts, chased after him, and walked side by side with Hai Mingyue again.
The short sword was in front, and Xingliuyun and Hai Mingyue followed closely behind, slowly advancing in a certain direction.
Along the way, the two figures rushed away, accompanied by blood-red footprints that disappeared and reappeared, repeating the cycle and shocking. It's as if a ghost has stepped on.
After running for dozens of miles in one go, the scene in front of him opened up again, and at the other end of the narrow crack, there was another world.
The color palette here is the same as before, except for the striking black earth, the overall color is dark blue, which gives Xingliuyun the illusion of returning to the shadow world.
I saw the blades scattered all over the ground, long, short, heavy swords, soft swords, and so on, and at a glance, there were no less than a hundred, and when I looked more closely, I found that there were more in the distance.
Swords fall all over the ground, including almost all kinds in the world.
Hai Mingyue stretched out her hand to stop Xingliuyun's footsteps and said, "It's up to you next." ”
"What's going on?"
The falling swords all over the ground undoubtedly also deeply shocked Xingliuyun, although these swords were only blinded by luster, none of them were corrupted, and they were obviously not ordinary.
Such a peerless sword will be regarded as fate by those who love swords, but at this moment, they are lying everywhere, covered in dust, only seeing swords, not people, all exuding a sense of sadness.
"One step further, and it will touch the Ten Thousand Swords Array here. ”
"This sword array is formed spontaneously by these swords that inherited the will of their ancestors, they have been stationed here all the year round, and they have long been integrated here, and every grass and tree can be used for it, and the sword array is infinitely changing. ”
"Whether we can go over or not is up to you. ”
It turns out that this is what brought me here.
Xing Liuyun didn't act without permission, but chose to ask first: "What level is this sword formation equivalent to?"
"Senior Nine Grades...... Start. ”
"Ahem, the high-grade nine-rank magic circle is enough for a cultivator of the Peak Nine Heavens to drink a pot, this is just the beginning, do you think too highly of me?" Xing Liuyun said.
Hai Mingyue said angrily: "I didn't let you break the formation, as long as you can withstand the pressure and pass here." ”
What you said is easy, it is a high-level magic array that even the cultivators of the Peak Breaking Nine Heavens have a headache, how can it be said that it can be resisted by resistance? Not to mention that this is still an extremely aggressive Ten Thousand Sword Array......
With his little cultivation, it would be a great blessing to be able to walk halfway through without dying.
"Here, I'll lend you this thing for now. As she spoke, Hai Mingyue directly stuffed a dark blue hand warmer into Xingliuyun's hand, "It also just happened to let me see how compatible you are with this magic weapon." ”
This hand-warmer with its unsightly appearance is naturally the magic weapon of Xingliuyun's heart, the glass net pot.
didn't think about it, as soon as Hai Mingyue's words fell, she saw that the light blue flames on the glass net pot were in vain, directly enveloping the entire lake.
And all this, as if only because, it came into contact with Xingliuyun......
"How could it be ......?"
This phenomenon made Hai Mingyue stunned for a while, she thought that the compatibility between Xingliuyun and the glass net pot was not low, but she didn't expect that before refining, it was just a contact, and this person and a weapon had already resonated.
Holding the glass net pot, this sense of entanglement of the same origin made Xingliuyun instantly increase his confidence, "I won't let you down!"
After saying this, Xingliuyun pulled Hai Mingyue's arm and ran to the other side as fast as he could, and the afterimage crossed by nearly a thousand meters.
And at this moment, a huge resistance finally descended on Xingliuyun, and in the sonorous sound, the mountains and rocks rolled, the water rippled, the heavens and the earth roared, and the long sword surrounded, forming a sealed encirclement.
The Ten Thousand Swords Array has been activated!
