Chapter 151: Life is Death
Before Lu Chengfeng could react, suddenly Qiao Meijiao's shouting sounded in his ears, and when he turned around, he saw that those ghost things kept pouring out of their mouths, like a handful of red insects, very disgusting.
"It's the Jiuli Insect, the most poisonous Gu technique in the world, the middle one will die within a day! They all had this Gu on their bodies before they came here, but they didn't expect that today they would eat the fruit of their own destruction!"
Qiao Meijiao's words made Lu Chengfeng's heart fall to the bottom all of a sudden, and he suddenly understood what had melted into his fingers before. Those Jiuli insects kept pouring out of their mouths, like a tide, and gradually became a spreading trend. In a hurry, Lu Chengfeng couldn't help asking, "Isn't it possible for you to solve this Gu technique?"
Qiao Meijiao didn't answer, but just took out three pills from her waist, one for herself, and the other two for them. After taking the pill, she spoke, "No one can solve this Gu technique, but as long as you take this pill, those insects won't bite you again!"
Hearing this, Lu Chengfeng was silent instantly, and he only said in his heart that he was going to die here, and the words of several people in a panic had already made those ghosts surround them and couldn't move. At the moment, Lu Chengfeng was already a dying man, and in despair, he didn't have time to think about it, so he pulled out the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand with his other hand and began to kill those ghost things. Its object is worthy of being an ancient artifact, even if it is not driven by true qi, its power is much stronger than that of ordinary weapons.
After a slash, several corpses had fallen to the ground, but at this time, Lu Chengfeng was obviously a little out of his mind, and when the Xuanyuan Sword was waved, an oil lamp was cut to the ground. Almost at this moment, the three of them were a little panicked at the same time, and just as the oil lamp fell to the ground and went out, a bronze mirror stone suddenly appeared on the stone wall, smooth as promised. The eyes of several people instantly became condensed on the bronze mirror stone, and the strange thing was that the stone reflected not the shadows of the three of them, but the appearance of a white-haired old man meditating cross-legged. They subconsciously turned around to look, but they didn't see the old man in the mirror.
Like a mirror, the bronze mirror stone can only reflect anything on its opposite, but it is indeed an incredible thing that someone else appears in the mirror. However, Qiao Meijiao suddenly fell to the ground with a pop, and then she supported her weak body and kowtowed three times in a row, and after getting up, she said with a straight face, "Unfilial descendant Qiao Meijiao visits Master Zu!"
Master Zu is the originator of the Ten Thousand Gu Gate - Qiao Yangzheng, that is, the predecessor who left a letter on the wall outside. The reason why Qiao Meijiao was able to recognize this person at a glance was because the portrait of this senior had always been enshrined in the ancestral hall of the Ten Thousand Gu Gate.
Qu Leiyang couldn't help but ask, "Why after many years, the appearance of Qiao's predecessor can still be reflected in the bronze mirror stone?"
I really don't know that there is such a master in the world. According to the predecessors of the Ten Thousand Gu Sect, back then, Qiao Yang was following the Jiuli Divine Monarch to fight in the south and the north, so that his lives were devastated. After returning to the Yellow Emperor in his later years, he felt guilty, and then he thought about it on the wall, also to guard the ancient evil beast, the fire unicorn. Because he was worried that he was not strong enough, he set up a formation to trap himself here. This thought has been around for hundreds of years, and it has never left this place. Over time, even the image of him meditating on the wall was reflected in the bronze mirror stone. More than 100 years later, this senior finally died here, and he has maintained a meditative posture until he died. However, his undead spirit has remained in this Muchun Mountain, hoping to use his life's strength to trap the Fire Qilin.
I thought it was a legendary thing, but I never thought that there was such a high person in this world, which is really admirable.
Lu Chengfeng finally killed all the corpses in place with great effort, but fortunately, after taking the pill, it was not difficult for the tide-like Jiuli insects on the ground to do their best. After listening to Qiao Meijiao's introduction, Qu Leiyang's heart suddenly surged with hope, and he asked, "Since this array was set up by the predecessors, there must be someone else who wants to put us to death." You are the successor chief of the Ten Thousand Gu Sect, and your predecessor will definitely not mean to harm others, and we may be able to derive a method to break the formation from his old man's image!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at the appearance of their predecessors. Although this old-timer meditates intently, his sitting posture is not like normal meditation, and it looks a little casual. I saw that although he was sitting upright in front, he had a solemn face, his eyebrows were tightly locked, as if he was facing a great enemy, his eyes were staring straight ahead, and he could faintly detect a trace of sadness in his eyes.
Lu Chengfeng looked at his appearance, suddenly thought in his heart, and said, "This senior is also a person who has been through ups and downs for a long time, and he has seen a lot of storms in the future. Something extraordinary must have been something extraordinary for him to be so worried about while he was on the wall of the ground. The most important thing is that he seems to have something on his mind before he dies, so he is a little melancholy!"
Hearing this, the other two nodded again and again. After thinking about it for a while, the three of them almost said in unison, "Fire Qilin......"
It is very likely that this senior is because his ability is not enough to suppress the fire qilin, so his face is solemn, and the reason why it is so hot around is very likely to be the relationship of the fire qilin. Then, since he had the heart to guard here, then the fire qilin must have wanted to rush out of this place. The reason why the old-timers meditated here, the seal that sealed the fire qilin must also be here, that is, where this array is born.
"Life and death is death, death is life! What Master Zu guards is the door of life of the Fire Qilin, that is also our door of death!"
Qiao Meijiao's words were tantamount to Daigo empowerment, and Qu Leiyang immediately exclaimed, "In other words, the opposite side here is also where our life is located!"
But before they could rejoice, the bronze mirror suddenly exploded with a bang, and the stones suddenly flew in all directions, and everyone hurriedly dodged. But Lu Chengfeng somehow began to move slowly, and a flying stone instantly hit him in the back, but fortunately, she held back the blood so that it would not gush out of his mouth.
After the bronze mirror stone was broken, a flame suddenly burst out of it, just smashed on the opposite oil lamp, after the oil lamp fell to the ground, there was a sudden appearance in front of the eyes in addition to a heavy stone door, with the extinguishing of the oil lamp, the stone door was slowly opened, and the road when it came reappeared in front of him. The three of them were immediately overjoyed, and they finally came out after being trapped for a long time.
But at this moment, the feet began to tremble violently, and the roar from behind him was simply deafening, making the listener suddenly feel a splitting headache. When he turned around, he saw a qilin with flames all over his body glaring angrily, this monster was so huge that every step made the ground tremble under his feet. But it kept stopping, as if it was afraid of something. It seems that it also appeared because they inadvertently knocked over the oil lamp in its direction, and this also means that its seal will be broken, and the time for the beast's rebirth is not far off.
After they rushed out of the stone chamber, the roar behind them was incessant. I saw that in the stone room, the extinguished oil lamp was lit again. As the oil lamp became brighter and brighter, the firelight in the five directions was inadvertently intertwined, gradually forming a rotating gossip pattern in the sky above the stone room.
The golden light shrouded it in the moment the fire unicorn rushed out, but after a while, as the light weakened, only to hear the monster roar, and the huge iron chains on its body had been torn off one by one.
Lu Chengfeng secretly screamed badly, and urged everyone to move forward quickly. But at this time, the lava under his feet was beating against the waves like a river and a sea, and the fiery red lava kept splashing. And the monster behind him may break through the seal at any time, if you don't leave, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out again, it can really be said that there are interceptions in front and chasing soldiers in the back. Unfortunately, all three of them were exhausted, and they could no longer hold back the scorching lava with their flesh and blood.
Just as they hesitated, a roar suddenly sounded behind them that was even more violent than before, followed by a loud bang, and immediately burst into flames. The monster suddenly rushed out and stared at the three people in front of it, and those eyes were like two burning fireballs, which was intimidating.
Now it's too late for them to leave, I really didn't expect that it would take a lot of trouble to escape from it, and the next moment it will be the first meal for this guy, and there is probably nothing more sad in this world.
Just as the monster crouched down and was about to leap up, there was a sudden sound of the stone door opening all around. I saw that the other buildings adjacent to the previous stone chamber had all opened their doors. In each stone chamber, a figure appeared that seemed to be nothing, as if it was floating in the air.
Almost at the same time as the fire unicorn jumped up, five golden and dazzling pillars of light suddenly shot out from all around. The pillars of light crisscrossed in midair, and when the light was at its peak, it actually blocked the monster in the middle of the way, and as soon as it touched the light, it roared back in anger, but always maintained an offensive posture.
Just as a few people were wondering, an old and helpless voice came from nowhere, "The catastrophe is coming, you leave as soon as possible, you must find the head of Shushan and discuss how to deal with it......"
As soon as the words fell, the lava that was still tumbling before had died down, and several people hurriedly walked forward after thanking them for saving their lives. Seeing the figures of several people gradually disappearing, the monster seemed to be furious, and after a roar, it rose from the ground, and in an instant, it had broken through the light, and its huge front claws were about to catch Lu Chengfeng, who was walking last.
Lu Chengfeng didn't have time to turn around and wanted to reach out and push Qiao Meijiao out in front of him, but Qiao Meijiao grabbed his hand and turned over and pushed him out. Seeing that the monster's front paws were about to catch Qiao Meijiao, Lu Chengfeng only felt that his mind was blank for a while.
