Chapter 58: The Locked Lich
Jing Han fell into the well, and his divine consciousness dispersed for the first time, and his face suddenly became solemn, where is this an ordinary old well, it is clearly a bottomless abyss!
There are white bones stuck in the walls of the wells around them, and it is impossible to tell whether they are humans or animals, dense and terrifying.
A burst of breathtaking cold demonic aura rose from below, accompanied by a heart-scratching ghost crying wolf howl, making people feel as if they were in the Nine Shadows of Yama.
Jing Han mobilized his true qi, condensed a golden shield on his body, and held the broken sword in his hand before slowly falling to the ground.
The further down you go, the less white bones there are on the walls of the well, but the larger the size.
"This is a burial ground for corpses!" Jing Han frowned, becoming more and more vigilant, and every time he fell, he was extra cautious.
After a quarter of an hour, the white bones on the wall of the well suddenly disappeared, and the space below suddenly opened up, and the first thing that caught Jing Han's eyes was an altar, and in the middle of it was a black wood, on which was nailed a person, and five arm-thick iron chains passed through the person's hands, feet, and neck, and pulled diagonally into the five directions of the altar.
All the demonic energy comes from this person!
Jing Han landed on the edge of the altar, and saw that the god operator and the bald little broken child were unconscious, lying on the altar, and their bodies were filled with a layer of demonic energy.
"Ugly, interesting. The man who was nailed to the dark wood suddenly laughed, like an evil ghost.
Jing Han squinted and looked at it, and found that there was a force covering this person's body, and his divine sense could not penetrate it, and besides, this person's hair was scattered, covering his face, and he couldn't see his appearance clearly.
"What is your name, young man?" said the demon-like man again.
"It's cold in Shimowell. Jing Han said, frowning and asking, "Who is Your Excellency?"
"Lich!"
"Lich?"
Jing Han's heart moved, and a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, it was from Gu Yan's memory, and then, all the pictures when he just came down suddenly gathered together, including the dilapidated old well, the dense corpse bones, and the mysterious altar at the bottom of the well...... He seemed to know what this place was, and he seemed to know who this person was.
"What are you thinking?" the lich began.
"I'm wondering what kind of place this is. Jing Han said calmly.
"Didn't you see those bones when you came down? this is a burial cage, and all the cult beings who enter this place will be robbed of their lives and turned into white bones!" the lich sneered, and his laughter was very eerie.
"Zai Xia is also a cultivator, why is he safe and sound?" Jing Han glanced at the unconscious god operator and the bald little broken child on the altar, and said lightly.
"That's why I said you're interesting. The lich sneered and said, "You are the first cultivator I have seen standing here unharmed since I was trapped here. ”
Jing Han was not surprised or happy in his heart, but his face pretended to be surprised, and said, "Oh, why is this?"
"Because those who die are not destined. The lich's voice was full of a seductive demon, and he said slowly: "Let me tell you the truth, this space is actually a magic weapon, and for countless years, countless beings have tried to come in and take away this magic weapon, but all of them have failed, and they have died because they have nothing to do with this magic weapon, and you, young man, you can stand here safe and sound today, you are the destined person of this magic weapon! ”
A wisp of demonic energy silently invaded Jing Han's body.
Jing Han's body shook slightly, his eyes suddenly became dull, and he said blankly: "Please ask the seniors for guidance, what can I do to take away this magic weapon?"
The lich suddenly looked up, his long hair fluttering, revealing a face as white as a ghost, and sneering, "Insert the sword in your hand into the altar......"
Suddenly, his smile froze, his face as white as a ghost showed a look of horror, almost all of his eyes were white, and a terrifying black light shot out of his eyes, staring at the broken sword in Jing Han's hand, he exclaimed: "Why did you hold this sword? Isn't this sword already gone? Why is it in your hands? Why? You go, go quickly! You are an ominous person, you will kill me, you will kill me!"
Crazy cries resounded throughout the subterranean space.
The lich seemed to see the most fearful thing, and twisted his body desperately, and the demonic energy gushing out of his body like the waves of a river, swept towards Jing Han, trying to expel Jing Han.
Whoa!
The five chains locked on the altar seemed to have a sense of intelligence, and sensing that the lich was casting a spell, they pulled it tighter together, and a bolt of lightning power overflowed from the altar and rushed down the chain into the lich's body.
With a crackling sound, most of the demonic energy on the lich's body suddenly dissipated, and arcs of electricity swamed across him, causing him to scream in pain.
"Why? I was almost able to get out of this hellish place, why did this to me?" the lich roared, very unwilling.
"Because you deserve to die, huh, Lich Makino," Jing Han suddenly spoke, and the dullness in his eyes completely disappeared, becoming extremely clear.
The lich froze again, as if it had been struck by lightning, and even the pain of the thunder arc on his body was gone, and the whole person looked at Jing Han blankly, the horror in his eyes became stronger and stronger, and he said in a trembling voice: "You know me?"
Jing Leng smiled coldly and said, "I not only know that you are the Lich Muye Partridge, but I also know that it is Ji Wangxu who you locked here." ”
Hearing this, the lich suddenly screamed and roared: "Knowing that I am a lich and a wild partridge, and a person who can call Ji Wang's name, there is definitely no more than a slap in the face in this world, who are you?"
Jing Han's heart sank, sure enough, Gu Yan's era was a long time ago, so far away that he might not be able to imagine it.
Fortunately, this lich Muye Partridge was also from that distant era, and it was a coincidence that Gu Yan knew about this person.
At this time, the lich saw that Jing Han was silent, and shouted again: "Answer me, who are you?"
Jing said coldly, "Who do you think I will be?"
The lich's eyes widened, then he narrowed again, and suddenly sneered, and said: "I know, you are like me, you were a venerable person back then, you escaped the catastrophe of the year with a secret method, slashed yourself, hibernated for nearly 10,000 years, and now you are reborn, hahaha, it turns out that you are also a poor worm!"
Jing Han shook his head and sneered: "Wrong, I'm different from you, you think that you can escape the catastrophe with a single slash, but you don't know that it fell into the hands of Ji Wangxu, before Ji Wangxu died, he also suppressed and locked you here, so many years of survival, is it comfortable?"
"If you hadn't killed yourself, no one would have survived, and you wouldn't have been like me, poor worm!" said the lich coldly.
"Really?" Jing Leng smiled, walked up to the altar with the broken sword, and said murderously: "Since you also feel pitiful, why don't I help you get free!"
"What are you going to do?" The lich saw Jing Han put the broken sword on his neck, and he was so frightened that he was very afraid of the broken sword.
"Actually, those dry bones above were all killed by you before you died, you charmed those creatures to come here and provide you with nourishment, the Soul Eater Dafa of the Lich Clan is not bad, not only let you survive here for so many years, but also almost let you get out of trouble. Jing Han was very glad to have Gu Yan's memory, which allowed him to understand so many secrets.
Hatred flashed in the lich's eyes, he had planned for countless years, paid an unimaginably heavy price, and today he fell short, and all his hard work was in vain!
"I can help you get out of trouble!" Suddenly, Jing Han spoke.
"Really?" the lich was ecstatic, he naturally knew that Jing Han would say this, he must have something to ask for, but for him, leaving this place to live was the most important thing.
Jing Han also calculated this point, if it weren't for his life, this person would not have the courage to slash himself, escape the catastrophe of the year, and choose to survive.
"If you save me from this place, I will follow you!" the lich said in a deep voice, and his willingness to put down his body and follow others in his former status shows his desire to live.
"Okay!" Jing Han nodded, he knew very well in his heart that the lich did not really want to follow him, but just an exchange of interests, if he had no deterrent effect on the lich one day, or if the lich regained his strength, he would not hesitate to kill him after discovering his true details.
It's just that he really needs the help of strength now, whether it's going to Ziyang Mountain to find his mother, or facing those powerful enemies behind him.
Although it is extremely dangerous to keep the Lich by his side, he also has self-confidence, which comes from suppressing the place where the Lich is trapped.
