Chapter 70: Heavenly Punishment (II)
A low, slightly trembling voice came from beside him, the voice of the High Priest. Ji Hou turned around to look, but found that his body seemed to be uncontrollable, and his movements were unusually slow, and it took a while to turn around and face the high priest.
There seemed to be a gloomy aura in the high priest's weakened and shriveled expression, but in any case, he and Ji Hou, who were holding the black scepter, were now the only ones in this land who were still a little angry.
"You're the only one left with a little bit of life...... "The High Priest looked very weak, as if he was going to fall down at any moment, but for some reason, he still held on, and in those eyes that had become very strange, there was a growing light.
That's hope, it's longing, it's yearning, it's dreaming, and there's more than that.
"Come here, I can't go, you carry me up. The High Priest grabbed the black scepter, pressed it tightly to his chest, and then commanded Ji Hou.
Ji Hou's mind was blank for a while, and he didn't react, probably still stuck in the dull feeling before. But at this moment, he was standing in front of the high priest, and he could faintly feel a trace of warmth, but it came from the black scepter in his hand, which made him feel a lot more comfortable.
He liked the feeling, the black scepter. He took a silent step forward, stood in front of the High Priest, and slowly crouched down.
In the middle of this waiting, Ji Hou faintly felt that his body seemed to be a little warmer again, the black scepter was getting closer and closer to his body, and after a long time, the terrible dull feeling that made the scalp tingle like petrification began to gradually subside.
But when did this situation begin? Ji Hou had no impression at all, and he couldn't remember it even if he recalled it carefully, but then he secretly surprised himself again, and found that his mind seemed to be recovering, and he actually began to think about the past things.
A body that was not heavy but disgusting lay on his back from behind, and the high priest's hands were still tightly clasping the black scepter, and then said to Ji Hou, "Go up the mountain!"
Ji Hou glanced ahead and found that he and the High Priest had already stood at the foot of the towering and mysterious sacred mountain, which was also the end of the road to heaven.
Right in front of him, on the land of Mount Kinabalu, a mountain road that seemed to be a natural formation, twisting and turning, winding upwards, leading to the depths of Mount Kinabalu, unfolded in front of his eyes.
Ji Hou took a deep breath, looked at the road blankly, and then walked up with his legs raised.
※※※
Mt. Kinabalu is steep and strange, with sparse vegetation and trees, giving people a sense of desolation, and walking into the mountain is like walking into another primitive and barbaric world, and soon, the surroundings are quiet, and all the sounds, even including the sound of the breeze blowing, suddenly quieted down.
The mountain road twists and turns, all the way up, and Ji Hou carries the high priest on his back and slowly walks upward. His speed was slow, and at the same time, he felt as if there was a sticky and suffocating thing around his body, invisible and intangible, but as if it made it difficult to move an inch.
His hands, feet, and limbs were uncomfortable, but the only warmth came from the scepter between him and the High Priest, and the warm breath protected his body, and as he kept walking deeper into the mountain, it did not weaken, but became stronger and stronger.
Ji Hou became more and more conscious because of this, and remembered more things, the dark and empty aura in his eyes slowly subsided, and from time to time, his eyes began to move, flashing with some kind of light.
On the one hand, his body looked more and more weak, and the aging was indescribable, and now it was not only the palms of his hands, but even his arms, legs, feet, and even his body below the neck looked like they had been drained of life and blood by some mysterious force, and turned into a skeleton-like appearance;
"It's there, quick, quick, there......"
A low, whisper-like voice kept coming from Ji Hou's ears, and he didn't answer, nor did he resist, so he carried the high priest on his back without saying a word, and walked step by step along the mountain road.
Suddenly, in the deathly silence around them, there was a sudden earth-shattering sound from the depths of the sacred mountain, like thunder on the ground, and even the peaks under their feet shook violently.
The high priest and Ji Hou looked up at the same time, only to see that on the towering mountain range of the Sacred Mountain, in the hard rock face of a cliff, suddenly the mountain collapsed and the ground cracked, and the boulder rolled down, and then in the dust, a huge purple light gate suddenly appeared on it.
The light gate flashed wildly, and darkness surged, mixed with the luster of the sea of blood and countless sharp, piercing, and terrifying howls. A moment later, suddenly I saw that purple light distorted and flickered, and a huge claw suddenly stretched out from the light gate, grabbed the rock of the outside world, and then with a loud roar, an indescribable huge monster, like the legendary demon of the underground Yellow Spring Hades, poked its head out of it and stretched out half of its huge body.
It looked at this sacred mountain, at this new world, with a look of ecstasy on its face, its snow-white fangs facing the sky, and then raised its head to the sky and roared, as if announcing its arrival.
At that moment, the sky and the earth were dark, the dark clouds were rolling, the entire sacred mountain seemed to be darkened, and a cold air was overwhelming, making people shiver.
But at this critical juncture, suddenly there was an earth-shattering roar from behind the sacred mountain, and a huge figure jumped down from the high peak, like a huge mountain peak, and smashed on the head of the exotic monster that had just been invincible.
"Boom!"
The strange exotic monster was slammed into the hard ground with a loud bang.
In the dust, a huge dragon with a huge body and a black body fell from the sky, stretched out its equally terrifying dragon claws, grabbed the monster's arm, and at the same time opened its bloody mouth, and bit the monster's neck with a roar.
"Roaring ......"
The rain of blood was mixed with an indescribable terrible scream, and the exotic monster was directly torn into two pieces by the black dragon, so the golden blood sprayed into the air, turning into an extremely terrible blood rain.
The exotic monster screamed and fell, half of its body was thrown to the ground, and the remaining half of its body didn't even manage to get out of the purple light gate, and fell to the ground.
After a few moments, the purple light gate that seemed to have lost its strength began to shrink, gradually becoming smaller, and then squeezed the monster's body into a mass of flesh without mercy, and finally disappeared into midair.
Everything slowly quieted down again, and the giant beast, which was as tall as a mountain peak, glanced coldly at Ji Hou and the high priest, then turned its head and slowly walked into the depths of the sacred mountain again.
This battle was short but tragic, and it was shocking to see life and death in the blink of an eye.
The high priest seemed to be frightened and did not speak for a while, while Ji Hou looked up at the sky and felt a slight coldness on his face, and after a while, the rain of blood fell.
The blood fell on his face, turning into beads of blood and slowly rolling down, staining his whole body, and at the same time, the high priest's somewhat jerky voice came from his ears, saying, "Keep walking." ”
