Chapter 957: Scales Guarding the Door
"Drink ......"
After a while, I only heard a long cry from Qin Yuan's mouth, his face was flushed, his eyes were wide open, and his face was full of joy, where was there still the appearance of a tuberculosis ghost who had suffered from diseases in the past.
The clothes on his body were windless, the sleeves of the robe were hunting, and dense white points of light appeared on the surface of his body, except for more than 200 places where the light was condensed, the rest were mostly illusory light.
This side is out of phase, and the other side is out of phase.
Chenyang's whole body was also lit up with dense points of light, among which there were only more than 200 condensed places, and more were virtual light.
After that, Fu Jian and Sun Tu were also in a similar situation, only the last out-of-phase was not quite the same, although there were also two kinds of light points on their bodies, virtual and real, but in fact, there were more than 800 light points.
"This is ......" Xuanyuan Xing's eyes widened and he muttered to himself.
Han Li also raised his eyebrows slightly, he already had a guess about this, but he still felt a little strange.
"Brother Li, the light points on these people's bodies don't seem to fit the mysteries, are these all the mysteries they have opened up?"
"There are so many of them, they can't all be mysterious...... However, as far as I can guess, those points of light that have materialized should be the mysteries that they have already opened up, while those that have blurred the light have not yet been opened. It's just ......" Speaking of this, Han Li stopped and groaned.
"Just what?" Shi said, wondering.
"I don't know if Brother Shi still remembers, when we first saw Chenyang, he had mentioned the number of Arcane's mysteries, and more than a thousand had been opened, but there were only more than 800 places that could be seen here, which was a bit strange......" Han Li pondered for a long time and replied.
"Didn't he deliberately deceive and intimidate us back then?" Shi Chuankong seemed to think of something.
"It's not clear. Ask Chenyang later. Han Li's gaze fell on Chenyang and he slowly spoke.
While the two were talking, the five people in the big array let out a loud shout at the same time, and the blood-colored light from the pentagram array under them suddenly flourished, and several people were shrouded in it, as if they were doubling the great pain, and all of them had a hideous look on their faces.
Seeing this, everyone's expressions changed, and they looked towards their respective city lords.
Han Li's gaze wandered between the Morning Sun and the Doom, his eyes couldn't help but jump, and his heart was full of suspicion.
I saw that on the two people, some of the mysteries that were still in a state of virtual discs had begun to have blood discs, and the light turned from virtual to real little by little at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At the same time, the aura on these people is also obviously rising, and it seems that they have really benefited greatly.
The onlookers exclaimed again and again, and in the eyes of Xuanyuan Xing and others, they were even more unabashedly envious.
"Boom la la ......"
In the sacrificial blood pool, the blood seemed to be boiling, tumbling more and more violently, a large amount of blood atomized, absorbed by the five statues, the liquid level in the pool also began to slowly decline, and a large number of white bones that had been buried in it before also began to be revealed.
If you look at it this way, it is indeed only a matter of time before the corpse sunk under the pool of blood comes to the surface.
"Could it be that I'm really thinking too much......" Han Li muttered to himself.
He looked at the five people in the Blood Sacrifice Great Array several times, and did not find anything wrong, so he wondered if he was too careful.
"Brother Shi, I want to go to the apse to have a look, you stay here for the time being, pay attention to the movements of these people, if there is a change here, if you can not be involved, try to stand by and wait for me to come back." Han Li pondered for a moment before transmitting his voice.
Shi Chuankong was stunned when he heard this, and Chuanyin asked, "I said Brother Li, since you think there may be changes here, why don't you let me go with me?"
"I don't know what is going on in the apse, so you don't need to go with me to the danger, and besides, I really need you to keep an eye on it for me. I said that there is a change here, just in case, not necessarily in case. Besides, you and I are obviously close, and if we leave at the same time, it is too conjecturing and easy to cause unnecessary trouble. Han Li knew Shi Chuankong's concerns and said so.
Shi Chuankong heard this, although he didn't fully agree, but finally nodded in response.
Han Li nodded at him, turned around the light curtain outside the blood pool, and walked towards the three stone arch bridges that led to the apse.
"Li Daoyou, where are you going?"
Han Li had barely taken a dozen steps when Shao Ying's figure blurred and stopped in front of him.
Shi Chuankong was about to step forward, but was stopped by Han Li's transmission.
"The five city lords are all here to urge the Blood Sacrifice Great Array, and I can't help much, so I have to walk by myself, is there anything wrong with this?" Han Li raised his eyebrows and asked.
"At this moment, it is a critical time for the operation of the large array, and there is no room for the slightest mistake. In my opinion, Li Daoyou is better to protect the Dharma for your city lord with peace of mind, and don't move around at will. Shao Ying's face was already gloomy, and his smiling words at this moment were even more disgusting.
"Our city lord has Xuanyuan Daoyou and Shi Daoyou to protect the Dharma together, so we don't have to worry about Elder Shao. Han Li said patiently.
"Then you can't move around, in case you accidentally trigger some mechanism and affect the operation of the big array, won't you have to die?" Shao Ying still refused to give in and said.
"Shao Ying, don't look for trouble, others are afraid of you, but I'm not afraid. It's a big deal, let's have a life and death here, and let's see if the light curtain outside the blood array is strong enough?" Han Li sneered, glanced at the blood pool, and asked in a low voice.
Fighting with Han Li, Shao Ying was of course not afraid, but as soon as he made a move on his side, Xuanyuan Xing and Shi Chuankong would inevitably come up to help, and the Zhu Ziyuan brothers and sisters would definitely not stand idly by, and the rest of the people from the three cities might watch from the sidelines, or they might also get involved, and it would really turn into a scuffle.
For such a result, he didn't have much to worry about, and in a fit of anger, he just killed the rest of the cities and these small miscellaneous pieces, and he thought that he could do it, but he was afraid that if it affected the operation of the blood array, he couldn't afford it if the city lord held him accountable.
"You'd better not get into trouble, or you'll ......"
Before Shao Ying could finish his threatening words, Han Li lightly threw down a sentence of "I know" and flashed past him.
That speed was so fast that Shao Ying couldn't react for a while, his busy figure flashed, and he distanced himself from Han Li, and when he looked at his back again, there was a dignified look in his eyes.
Han Li ignored Shao Ying and walked towards the three stone arch bridges on his own.
This small conflict just now didn't attract too many people's attention, after all, most people's attention was focused on the blood array and the five city lords in the array.
Zhu Ziqing stood beside Zhu Ziyuan, a pair of beautiful eyes looking over here, his eyes full of curiosity.
Not far away, Lady Liuhua was also looking at Han Li's distant back, with a deep look in her eyes, and muttered to herself, "What is this kid's idea......
However, doubts are doubts, he still has to observe the changes in the blood array here, so naturally he will not keep up.
……
The three stone arch bridges at the back are exactly the same as the previous three in terms of material and style.
Han Li still walked on the stone arch bridge in the middle, and soon came to the opposite bank.
On the other side of the stone bridge is also a flat square, not too large, and in front of it are two huge stone gates.
There was no fire here, the light was very dim, and with his powerful eyesight, Han Li could see that there was a statue of a head shaped like a barbarian lion, but with sharp horns and scales on its face, carved on the stone gate.
I saw that it was divided into two halves from the center of the center to the nose bridge of the beast's mouth, and the left and right doors each accounted for one of them.
Han Li frowned slightly, and stood in place and muttered for a long time, carefully recalling in his mind what was recorded on the jade slip that the Crab Dao man had given him back then.
At the end, his gaze froze slightly, and he muttered, "Scales guard the door, it seems that this is what the jade slip says......"
With that, Han Li stepped forward and did not push the door directly, but raised his palm and pressed it twice on the two outward-turned beast teeth of the scaly statue.
Listen only to the slight sound of a "click".
In the center of the large mouth of the scaly statue, the four beast teeth retreated at the same time, revealing a dark and secluded hole.
Han Li looked left and right, his figure flashed, and he entered it.
Immediately after, there was another soft sound behind him, and the four beast teeth returned to their original positions at the same time, sealing the hole.
Inside, it was pitch black all around, and there was no light at all, and with Han Li's eyesight, he couldn't see anything clearly.
"Tick"
The sound of water droplets falling came from directly ahead, small but distinct.
Han Li's mind moved, and he silently activated the Mighty Vajra Technique, and the mysteries on his two arms lit up one after another, emitting a hazy white light, reflecting on the surroundings.
Only then did he see clearly that he was standing on a stone staircase at the moment.
Due to the limited light of the Occult Aperture, Han Li could only see the distance of five or six steps in front of him, and he couldn't see it clearly from further afield.
Han Li hesitated slightly, but still walked down the steps one by one.
After walking more than ten steps, the ground in front of him became flat, and it seemed that he had come to a platform, and the "ticking" sound he had just heard became closer.
After Han Li followed the sound and took a few steps forward, he saw a three-foot-high stone pillar appear in front of him, with a stone basin with a square foot embedded on it, which contained a basin full of unknown black liquid, smelling a faint fishy smell, as if it was some kind of foreign beast's grease.
"Tick"
Another soft bang!
A drop of liquid dripped down from above and landed in the stone basin, rippling in small circles.
Han Li's heart moved, his fingers rubbed, and a wave of star power flowed out from his fingertips, and with a "crackling" sound, it turned into a white light and fell into the stone basin.
With a soft sound of "boom", a ball of fire suddenly rose in the stone basin and burned violently.
Immediately afterward, two lines of fire flowed out from the top of the stone basin, extending along the grooves on both sides of the stone pillars, until they reached the far distance on both sides.
