Chapter Seventy-Two: The Pool of Blood
Xiao Chen was silent for a moment, and finally nodded: "Two months ago, Dao Feng arrested my two friends. ”
Huangfu's eyes showed surprise: "Are you talking about Elder Feng? They returned to the Purple Mansion more than a month ago. ”
Xiao Chen's brows tightened, Xian'er and Senior Sister Luo, couldn't they have been taken to the Purple Mansion by them, right?, "Have you heard before that they brought people back?"
Huangfu Xin'er shook his head: "The disciples have always dared not ask about the elder's affairs, did Elder Dao Feng really arrest your friend?
Xiao Chen pinched his fingers: "I saw it with my own eyes, how can it be fake!"
After a while, the emperor sighed in his heart: "Maybe I am not the only one who found you last night, don't you go again today, okay? The formation was set up by my master, how can I not know the reason if someone breaks it? He is about to leave the customs, I don't want you to take any more risks......
"I'm sorry, Xin'er, can I get you out of here?"
After last night's incident, he felt more and more that this Tianfeng Gate was full of unspeakable weirdness, and it was definitely not beneficial for the emperor to stay here.
"I ......" Huangfu wanted to speak and stopped, and finally lowered his head: "Where can you take me, we have ......"
The cool breeze at night, penetrating people's skin, a round of crescent moon slanting, the sea is faintly visible, Xiao Chen quietly stands on the top of the cliff, facing the sea, it seems that the tide is rising tonight, and when the tide recedes tomorrow, the ship that sends supplies is coming, this half a month has searched the entire Tianfeng Gate, and the only thing that has not been gone is the cave.
Just as he was distracted, two figures quietly walked behind him, and Shangguan Yan slapped him on the shoulder, wanting to scare him, but unexpectedly he turned around slowly and said calmly: "Are you ready?"
Shangguan Yan pouted: "I hate it! Why didn't it scare you!" Xiao Han said: "Without further ado, let's go." ”
The three of them came to the cave last night again, the eight giant swords were still standing in the air, constantly changing directions, there were faint runes flashing on the swords, Xiao Chen had already prepared everything, took out the eight yellow runes and threw them in the air, and immediately pasted them on the eight giant swords.
Then I saw that he kept chanting the mantra seal, the runes on the eight yellow runes increased greatly, and the speed of the eight giant swords gradually slowed down, Xiao Han saw this, and Shangguan Yan palmed his back together, injecting a breath of true qi, and after a while, the eight giant swords completely stopped turning, and the runes on the sword also disappeared.
"We can only temporarily suppress the operation of this formation, we have to be fast. The three of them entered the cave and immediately smelled a pungent smell of blood.
The further he went, the heavier the bloody aura became, Xiao Chen held up a curtain of light to illuminate the road ahead, Shangguan Yan shouted "ah", but saw that there were countless blood pools around, and each blood pool was connected by a ditch.
Xiao Chen's heart sank, this is not a sword mound, but he doesn't know what these blood pools are used for, but it is certain that these are human blood, Tianfeng Gate actually did such a hurtful thing, it was really in vain, and asked: "Do you know what these blood pools are used for?"
Xiao Han thought for a long time and said, "Last night, I overheard someone talking, saying what kind of blood soul to send to the Tianfeng Gate of the Purple Mansion. ”
Blood Soul? Xiao Chen's eyes narrowed, could it be that these people wanted to open the Blood Soul Array and resurrect someone? With tens of millions of living beings as a medium, with the help of the power of the ancient fierce array, they could bring the dead back to life...... Blood Soul Great Array! In his memories of his previous life, it seemed that such an evil array did indeed exist.
The Tianfeng Gate came to Fanchen to establish an outer gate and recruit countless disciples, but only a handful of disciples were able to enter the Purple Mansion in the end, so where did the rest of the disciples go? I am afraid that they have turned into the blood souls in this blood pool, and have been sent to the Tianfeng Gate of the Purple Mansion, and have become the spiritual medium that opens the Blood Soul Array.
A chill gradually rose behind Xiao Chen, this day the wind gate is really evil and evil, doesn't the emperor know it? Senior Sister Luo and Xian'er ......
While pondering, Xiao Han suddenly pulled him and pointed to the northwest: "There seems to be a secret passage over there." ”
Xiao Chen stared at the past, and saw that there seemed to be traces of excavation on the stone wall over there, so he walked over with the two of them, found a hidden mechanism setting, opened the stone door, and suddenly a rancid smell came to his face, and what appeared in front of the three of them was an artificially dug road, which was dark, and there seemed to be many unknown creatures wriggling and rustling.
Xiao Chen and Xiao Han glanced at each other, and asked Shangguan Yan in unison, "Are you waiting here, or do you want to go in with us?" Shangguan Yan shuddered, pinched his nose and said, "Since, naturally I'm with you! I'm not afraid!"
The corridor was dark and damp, and when the three of them entered it, the rancid smell was even stronger, and people couldn't help but feel sick, Shangguan Yan took out a handkerchief and covered his mouth and nose, Xiao Chen and the others froze their breath, and the more they walked forward, the more they felt that the soil under their feet was soft, and even a thin creaking sound could be heard when they stepped on it.
"Be careful, we may be stepping on countless rotting corpses. Xiao Chen reminded that Shangguan Yan walked behind, and suddenly her little face turned pale with fright, stood on tiptoe, and grabbed his arm tightly.
After a while, the corridor gradually widened, the surrounding corpse qi became heavier, and even the faint green phosphorus fire was beating on the wall, Shangguan Yan suddenly screamed, her body stiffened, and her eyes were tightly closed.
Xiao Chen turned around and asked, "What's wrong?" Shangguan Yan slowly opened her eyes, her voice trembling a little: "I...... I seem to have stepped on something......" As he spoke, his gaze slowly moved to his feet, and with a scream, he jumped up and jumped on Xiao Chen.
It was a highly corrupted head, the flesh and skin on the face were almost eaten away, and countless maggots crawled out of the hole in the eye, and the head had a bun on it, and a green beaded flower was inserted in the bun, this person should have been a woman in her life.
Xiao Chen's face became a little sluggish, put Shangguan Yan down, slowly squatted down, and pulled out the pearl flower, the jade on the bead flower was carved with a small butterfly.
"It's ...... Senior Sister Luo's hairpin?"
"Ahh......h
At this moment, he couldn't wait to kill everyone in the Tianfeng Gate!
"No, don't get excited. Xiao Han saw a little clue and pulled him up from the ground: "Don't look at it, there are many hairpins of this kind on the market, besides, it has been cold for two months, and the corpse can't decay so quickly......" After saying that, the internal force shook and shattered the head on the ground.
Suddenly, there was a rustling sound from the other end of the road, the sound became denser and denser, and many unknown creatures in the darkness rushed towards the three of them, Xiao Han's expression froze: "Be careful! It's a corpse cricket!" The internal force in his palm spit out, shattering several corpse crickets, and blood splattered everywhere.
Those ghoul crickets were about the size of half a palm, and as far as the eye could see, there were tens of thousands of them, Shangguan Yan was so frightened that she hurriedly retreated, and suddenly countless ones came out of the ground, Xiao Chen smiled coldly, Zhen Yuan immediately walked all over his body, and with a loud shout, he turned the surrounding corpse crickets into powder.
The ghoul crickets in the distance no longer dared to approach and burrowed into the ground one after another. Shangguan Yan's heart fluttered with fright, and she whispered: "What the hell was it just now...... Xiao Han calmed down: "It's okay, let's go." He looked at Xiao Chen again, saw him stunned in place, and asked, "Are you okay?"
Xiao Chen didn't speak, went forward, the three of them came to the end of the road, and saw a stone step leading diagonally upward, Xiao Han led the way in front, went up the stone steps, and in front of them was a circular stone hall.
"What's on that stage!" Shangguan Yan exclaimed.
Xiao Chen looked in the direction she said, and saw a palm-sized black tripod suspended on a stone platform, surrounded by layers of secret techniques, and there was a mist bubbling out of the black tripod, as if it was refining something on its own.
The three of them approached, Xiao Han looked at Xiao Chen and asked, "There are formations around the stone platform, can you untie them?"
"Why not. Xiao Chen said coldly, and then hit the stone platform with a palm, the palm was strong, and the entire stone platform was smashed when he landed, Xiao Han jumped and caught the black ding.
Shangguan Yan ran forward, snatched the black tripod from Xiao Han's hand, and held it in his hand as if he had found a treasure: "I didn't expect that there was really a treasure......
"This should be the furnace for refining souls. Xiao Han said and looked around, and then looked at Xiao Chen: "Don't worry, Senior Sister Luo, they may be sent to the Purple Mansion, although the purpose is not clear to me, but it is certain that Tianfengmen will not only intend to refine them into blood souls, they should at least be safe now." ”
"Let's go, go back. ”
The three of them returned to the previous cave blood pool, Xiao Chen suddenly stopped and glanced at Xiao Han: "Don't you think it's a little strange?" Xiao Han turned around: "What?"
"Did we go a little too well from the start?"
Xiao Han's expression froze, he thought for a moment, and suddenly said, "Oh no!" With a shake of his feet, he ran towards the entrance of the cave, and was just about to run out of the hole, when his body immediately seemed to encounter an invisible wall of qi and was bounced back into the cave.
"It's the enchantment of the Eight Desolations Xuanyin Array, after the eight giant swords at the entrance of the cave stop, the formation will be opened, we can't get out, it seems that someone has set up a plan. Xiao Chen walked over and said slowly.
