......

As if receiving some command, the headless warriors dismounted, pulled the stone horse tightly wrapped in thick armor and retreated to the sides of the Jizo corridor, where they stood neatly like a sculpture again.

The battle ended, and while all the strong men were cautiously on guard, they all sat on the ground, gasping for breath.

A misty light came in from the other side of the gate, and all the strong people looked up, and they all saw a huge stone tablet suspended in the void inside the door. There was a platform on the inside of the gate, about hundreds of feet wide, empty, and I don't know what it was used for.

While watching, Xu Zhenheng stood up and came to the gate with Duan Yuankuo, looking at the inside of the gate where only a few bright lights shone in, a look of excitement appeared in his eyes.

"That's the Contract Stone?" Duan Yuankuo muttered.

After cultivating for hundreds of years, Duan Yuankuo has only had one chance to enter this ancient monument, and last time, he was not qualified to go to the third layer, so he only heard of the contract stone in the ancient monument, and could not see it with his own eyes.

Like Duan Yuankuo, Xu Zhenheng also looked at the quaint boulder with excitement, and his eyes were full of excitement.

As the head of the Xu family, Xu Zhenheng has always longed to be able to ascend to the sky and comprehend the way of a stronger martial artist. However, the peculiarity of the Far West is a counterweight to his development. In the face of the power of the thunder, as strong as Xu Zhenheng, he did not have the confidence to survive it at one time, and failure meant the fall, and no one wanted their hundreds of years of numbers to come to naught.

Originally, Xu Zhenheng planned to give this opportunity to his beloved daughter, so that the ancestral bloodline could dominate the two major families, and he Xu Zhenheng would also be famous in history. But because of Ou Chuyang's appearance, he changed his mind, after all, in Xu Zhenheng's eyes, it was really unfair to Xu Jie'er who was carrying such a family mission. In order to save Xu Jie'er, Xu Zhenheng did not hesitate to destroy the ancestral bloodline, but what Ou Chuyang brought to him was that his beloved daughter would no longer be checked and balanced by the bloodline from now on, and when he reached the peak of his cultivation one day, he would be able to soar calmly.

Therefore, this opportunity is back to Xu Zhenheng, how can he not be happy.

Forcibly suppressing the excitement of the European name in his heart, Xu Zhenheng's eyes turned to the body of the strong people of the Xu family, and after looking around, he said in a deep voice: "Are you ready, the third layer of monuments is below." ”

The powerhouses nodded solemnly, and Xu Zhenheng said, "Okay, just follow me." ”

After saying that, all the powerhouses of the Xu family stood up one after another and walked to Xu Zhenheng's side in a deep step.

On the side, Duan Yuankuo's eyes were also getting colder, and his fighting spirit was rising, he knew that as long as he entered this gate, the contract battle would officially begin, and at that time, the friendship established by the previous cooperation between the two families would be crushed by the only qualification to ascend to heaven and be wiped out. And life and death will have their own destiny.

Looking directly at Xu Zhenheng, Duan Yuankuo's jaw raised slightly, and the disdain in his eyes was completely replaced by solemnity.

"Master Xu, when you get inside, it's all up to your ability, no matter who can get this opportunity at that time, I hope that the Xu and Duan families will not have disputes again in a hundred years. ”

"It's nature. Xu Zhenheng said loudly: "The contract battle is a fair war, and no matter what, our two families can't start a war because of this. ”

This conversation is naturally because the two masters are afraid that after they get the opportunity to ascend to the heavenly martial arts, the other party will be angry and intensify the immortal feud between the two families to the point that it cannot be contained. While worrying about the family, it also shows the proud confidence of the two family heads in their own strength.

Nodding to each other, the two reached a tacit understanding at this moment, and then, under the unanimous command of the two family heads, a team of more than twenty people strode into the threshold of the third layer of monuments.

The suspended platform, about hundreds of feet in the ground, when the strong people withdrew into this third layer of ancient ruins, the platform suspended in the void at the gate was the only place where they could stay.

As the last person entered, the gate closed by itself, and then, under dozens of surprised gazes, the golden gate that had just flashed a dazzling light slowly disappeared in front of everyone's eyes.

There was no way out, and everyone could only walk towards Fang.

Coming to the edge of the platform, through the endless void, everyone could only see that there was a simple and deep boulder in the dark space opposite. The stone body is huge, dozens of zhang high, like a wild beast inhabiting the ancient void, exuding a terrifying aura that makes the soul throb.

"This is the Contract Stone?" Feeling the surging internal qi in his body, as well as the vibrating true soul power, Ou Chuyang couldn't help but be horrified in his heart.

Under his eyes, Ou Chuyang estimated that the contract stone was only far away from him and the others, and he couldn't figure out the real distance at all, but when the entire gate was closed and disappeared, this eternal aura made him feel an unprecedented sense of powerlessness.

In the face of the contract stone, Ou Chuyang's soul seemed to be locked by it, and in front of the contract, Ou Chuyang suddenly felt that he was very small, as if as long as this boulder touched him, he would be wiped out.

Ou Chu Yang didn't like this feeling, subconsciously, the internal qi of the wood spirit attribute in his body surged out, and the condensation of the internal qi armor and the summoning of the Yuan Hell Moon Wheel all provided an almost powerless guarantee for his life.

Not only Ou Chuyang felt this way, the moment he entered the gate, all the powerhouses had already summoned their Earth Martial Saint Weapons and Internal Qi Armor, and like Ou Chuyang, when they arrived here, everyone felt what the crisis was.

Looking at each other, everyone had no idea for a while, the endless void in front of them hid an extremely dangerous aura, and they did not dare to face this unknown crisis, and dared to take risks, for a while, everyone's eyes turned to the two leaders.

Xu Zhenheng and Duan Yuankuo's faces were solemn, and their internal qi continued to evaporate, looking at the strange environment around them, Xu Zhenheng said, "Duan family master, what are you waiting for?"

Duan Yuankuo said: "In this case, why didn't the Xu family master do it first, could it be that the Xu family master was also afraid." ”

Xu Zhenheng laughed and said calmly: "You're right, I'm afraid, isn't the same for the Duan family master?"

"Why don't we go over together? Duan Yuankuo thought for a while, clenched his fists and said.

"It's fine. Xu Zhenheng smiled and nodded.

Although these two human spirits were afraid of the fear brought to them by this Endless Void, however, a deeper level of worry was that they were afraid that the other party would take action when they were in danger and add a fire, so neither of them moved first.

In a few words, the worries in the hearts of the two of them were understood, and after reaching a consensus, they rose up.

Just as everyone was getting up one after another, suddenly, from the right side of the void, a red-gold streamer appeared, and the streamer appeared abruptly, drawing a straight line of light in the dark void from right to left, and then disappeared into invisibility under the defenselessness of everyone.

"Source Sha Shaling?"

Seeing this, everyone's pupils tightened suddenly. Just on the second floor, everyone searched for the hiding place of the sand spirit until the gate was opened and closed, and the whereabouts of the sand spirit were not found. But just when everyone thought that the sand spirit was near the contract stone, it suddenly appeared again.

It's just that no one pays attention to Sha Ling anymore at this time, and with the disappearance of Sha Ling, a shocking scene suddenly emerges in the void.

Fire.

From beneath the deep void, it rose out of nowhere.

The light drawn by the spirit of the golden golden valley source sand seemed to be the fuse that ignited this fire. From the moment it disappears, little sparks begin to burn.

The void shone brightly, hazy, and everyone seemed to see a large number of objects piled up at the bottom of the void, which covered a large area large enough to encompass the entire circle of the earth.

Just as everyone was amazed, the spark finally ignited a faint flame, climbed on top of the piled objects, and with a loud sound, ignited a sky-high fire hundreds of feet high.

The next moment, everyone involuntarily regressed.

Ahead, a huge mountain of corpses appeared in front of everyone.

The corpses were piled up, this scene was really difficult to calm down, and the countless corpses burned by the sky-high fire made a "zizi" sound, which was heard in everyone's ears, and the hairs stood on end.

The flames soared into the air, completely blocking the platform from the Pact Stone. Then, a bottomless staircase appeared strangely from the platform, layer by layer to the bottom of nowhere.

"Hehe, welcome to the Soul Refining Pit, you can go down the stairs to find the Golden Valley Source Sand, and after finding it, the Contract Stone will naturally fall. By the way, a word of advice, Cheo is going to fly through the air, and the consequences are not something you can afford to bear. ”

Just as everyone was shocked, a hoarse voice came from the void, and after careful identification, Ou Chuyang heard it immediately, this was what the corpse man said, his eyes kept scanning around, and his true soul power also encompassed a large area of this void at the same time. However, to Ou Chuyang's disappointment, he couldn't discern the direction from which the voice came from, nor could he find the hiding place of the corpse keeper.

"Hmph~, sensational, Your Excellency thinks that if you scare us with such inconsequential words, we will give in?" Duan Yuankuo snorted coldly when he heard this, and said.

In the void, there was no response. The dead silence was terrifying, and the sound of the burning corpse mountain made people feel Ou Chuyang's fear even more.

"Don't speak? I'm going to give it a try. Duan Yuankuo's face was angry.

It's no wonder that he is like this, this time he is entering the monuments, originally for the sake of the once-in-a-century ascension quota, Duan Yuankuo never thought that there would be so many changes in the monuments. Before entering the third floor, two of the seven middle-level martial god powerhouses brought by the Xu family died, and they were also led by the nose by an old man who was not good-looking, how could Duan Yuankuo not be angry.

Before entering the third floor, two of the seven middle-level martial god powerhouses brought by the Xu family died, and they were also led by the nose by an old man who was not good-looking, how could Duan Yuankuo not be angry.

Like the Duan family of Tianshui Peak, Xu Zhenheng also lost two powerful middle-level martial gods under his hands, and when he heard Duan Yuankuo's words, Xu Zhenheng immediately thought about it.

In a dangerous situation, there is a powerful enemy looking around in the dark, and this enemy also knows the identity, and the strength is even more unclear, the corpse keeper seems to be the master here, every step of their move seems to be under the control of the corpse keeper, and finally reached the third layer, they have already seen the existence of the contract stone, this short distance is separated by a thick flame, and the place that can be reached in an instant seems so far away at this time.

This feeling made Xu Zhenheng very uncomfortable, but he couldn't take the other party's words as a laughing stock, since the other party said that it would be dangerous to fly over in the sky, it must not be in vain.

Just thinking about it, Duan Yuankuo had already given an order, and the two powerhouses of the Duan family-level martial gods received the order, flew up, looked at the huge corpse mountain with disdain, and rushed out quickly.

Everyone looked directly at the two strong men, and when they just flew to the periphery of the corpse mountain, the huge flames that were hundreds of meters away from them suddenly rose up, and the flames soared into the sky, and the flames condensed into a big face as hideous as a ghost, and the blood basin spat out one by one, and a flame that was extremely hot towards the two strong men.

Seeing that the speed of the fire ball was extremely slow, the two strong men smiled slightly and calmly flashed over, however, just when they thought they had dodged the fire ball, the fire ball suddenly bloomed behind them with amazing sparks.

"Whew"

The fire burst out, not roaring, but igniting a monstrous wave of fire in the void.

The waves of fire mixed with breathless heat spread in all directions, and it was not until the two strong men were enveloped that they stopped their spread.

At that time, a trace of fear of death emerged in the hearts of the two strong men, and under the gaze of countless terrifying eyes, the two strong men with the realm of mid-level martial gods were swallowed by the waves of fire in a moment, and then fell straight on the corpse mountain in front of everyone, becoming one of them.

A heart-rending cry sounded from the mouths of the two powerhouses, and everyone's hearts were as uncomfortable as if they had been struck hard by a giant hammer, looking at the two middle-level martial god powerhouses who were struggling on the corpse mountain, Duan Yuankuo roared loudly and was about to rush over.

"Head of the house, don't be impulsive. You see. ”

A Duan family elder grabbed the angry Duan Yuankuo at a critical moment, and with a casual finger, everyone saw that below the two strong men, countless corpses that had been burned beyond recognition stretched out their palms that were no longer humanoid, and grabbed the two strong men deadly, making them unable to break free from them at all.

Everyone watched the two middle-level martial gods die like this for no reason, and they gasped even more because of this spectacular and terrifying scene.

However, only Ou Chuyang could see that when the two strong men stopped struggling, two souls with the faces of the two strong men slowly rose from their heads. After the simmering of the flames, the human face of the soul illusion slowly disappeared, converging into a gray energy body, slowly scurrying to the bottom of the corpse, and disappeared into nothingness.
