Volume 1 Mortal Realm Chapter 244 Catacombs III
After about a thousand feet of walking, the group came to a huge square, and the ground of the square was covered with strange runes.
Lu Chen, as the Formation Talism Grandmaster, after a while, he recognized that this was a huge energy gathering formation, but he didn't know where this formation would gather the energy and send it.
"Fellow Daoists, look at the top of your heads!" I don't know who said it, everyone looked up, and saw that the dome above the square was covered with green vines, and these green vines bore strange red fruits.
These fruits exude a burst of fragrance, everyone look at me, I look at you, but no one dares to be the first to go up and pick it.
Time passed little by little, and finally someone couldn't help it, this was a monk in the early stage of the Yuan Infant, he took out a flying sword from the storage bag, and controlled it on the magic sword, this person instantly arrived on the green vine, and after picking a fruit, he quickly returned to the ground, without encountering any danger, but Lu Chen faintly felt that there was something strange in this, so he transmitted the message to Mu Qing, don't act rashly.
"This is the Green Immortal Fruit! This fruit is one of the main medicines for refining the Seven-Rank Pei Yuan Pill, and one Pei Yuan Pill can save years of penance. The well-informed monk recognized this spiritual fruit at a glance, and even said its effect in an instant.
Seeing that this was extraordinary, and there was no danger, everyone quickly flew towards Qingteng one by one.
After a while, more than 400 monks arrived at these green vines at the same time, and these people easily picked the green fruit in front of them, and then put it in the storage bag.
But at this moment, the rattans in front of him suddenly burst out, and the roar tightly wrapped around the hundreds of unsuspecting monks. The originally ordinary rattans that had no breath flowed were actually born at this moment, and there were bursts of cold aura emanating from these rattans.
It turned out that the fruit tree of this green underworld fruit was actually a strange symbiosis of plants and monsters, and this was not recorded in any ancient books.
The entangled hundreds of monks let out a terrible scream, and in a few breaths they were sucked into a dried corpse, and at the same time, the runes on the ground of the square began to flash with bursts of white light.
Lu Chen's eyes lit up, it turned out that these green vines were the key to the opening and operation of the entire Spirit Gathering Formation.
Only a moment later, the green vines in the dome regained their calm, and the runes on the ground of the square began to dim, as if the bloody scene just now had never happened.
The three coffins in the depths of the tomb suddenly erupted with bursts of dazzling silver light, and after absorbing the essence blood of hundreds of monks, these three silver-armored puppets not only began to wake up, but their strength also skyrocketed, directly reaching the state of the Great Perfection of the Yuan Infant.
Only then did everyone in the square come back to their senses, and their eyes were full of fear when they looked at the green vines on the dome.
Under Mu Qing's reminder, the monks of the Demon Refining Sect did not pick the green fruit, and a few monks who felt that Mu Qing was too cautious were full of gratitude to Mu Qing at the moment, if it weren't for his kind advice, he might have become one of the dried corpses now.
As for the team of the Yin Corpse Sect, seven or eight temporarily recruited monks, Ji Gaoyang did not send a message to remind them, but watched them go to pick the Green Dead Fruit, and the disciples in the Yin Corpse Sect had already been reminded by Ji Gaoyang in advance, so they did not pick the Green Dead Fruit to avoid casualties.
"It's too weird here!Fellow Daoists, let's hurry up and go ahead!" Ji Gaoyang shouted to the people in the square, the essence blood of more than four hundred monks has been absorbed by the three silver-armored puppets, and the expected goal has been reached, and the remaining six hundred or so monks will definitely not be fooled again, Ji Gaoyang decided to induce them to go to the depths of the tomb to die.
Passing through the square, the monks advanced about a thousand zhang, and found a palace in front of them, the gate of which was closed, and in front of the gate were eighteen bronze figures of different shapes.
A text was written on the blood-colored gate: "Those who break through the bronze array, the tomb gate will automatically open, and only three people can pass through the level at a time, if you find multiple people breaking through the level or other fraudulent behavior, you will bear the consequences!"
One of the monks in the late Yuan Dynasty thought that the owner of the tomb was playing tricks and did not take the warning on the gate seriously.
This person took out a clay figure from the storage bag and threw it in the direction of the bronze man, the clay figure instantly rose to the size of an ordinary person, and eighteen bronze figures firmly surrounded him, taking advantage of the opportunity of the puppet to distract the bronze man, this person flew into the air in front of the blood-colored gate.
The blood-colored door slowly opened, this person thought that he had succeeded in opportunism, but he did not expect that a giant hand suddenly stretched out from inside the gate, and firmly grabbed him, no matter how this person tossed, he could not break free from the giant hand, and after a while, this person was strangled to death by the giant hand, and the tragic death made the people behind him tremble.
In desperation, everyone had no choice but to start looking for temporary teammates to break through, like Zhang Zijin, and invited Lu Chen and Mu Qing to break into the bronze formation with him.
Slowly, everyone found that the bronze man array here is actually not difficult to break through, as long as the three of them work together, even if the three of them only have the early cultivation of the Yuan Infant, they can also break through, for the god cultivator, this array is a piece of cake, and the two Jin Dan monks in the team of the Demon Refining Sect were able to break through the bronze man array with this god cultivator.
Because many of the teams that broke through the level were improvised, they guarded each other, resulting in failure to break through and being killed by the bronze man, and some were using their companions to contain the bronze man, and they took the opportunity to escape from the bronze man array, and the fate of those who were used by the companions can be imagined, all of them were beaten to death by the bronze man.
The purpose of Ji Jiantong, the Great Elder of the Yin Corpse Sect, in setting up this formation was to use the selfishness of human nature to make it impossible for the three people who broke through to unite and cooperate, which led to the failure of the level.
Three hours passed, half of the monks failed, and only about 300 people successfully entered the palace.
When the last team that successfully broke through the level stepped into the gate, the three hundred or so corpses that had just been killed by the Bronze Man Array suddenly deflated and turned into dried corpses, and it turned out that the ground near the entire Bronze Man Array was also covered with strange runes.
The essence and blood of these corpses were continuously channeled through runes into the three coffins in the deepest part of the tomb.
After a few hours, the essence blood of these monks was completely absorbed, and the three silver-armored puppets inside the coffin began to emit obscure golden light, and their strength was infinitely close to the early stage of the transformation of gods.
