"Master! How can you say this?" Yuan Mingzi couldn't help but turned pale and said: "This mountain has been a Taoist resort since ancient times. It has been a place of cultivation for countless celebrities and high-achievers in the past dynasties. How could there be a deliberate risk of man-made disaster? What's more, What’s more, thanks to the Master’s efforts, isn’t it already settled?”
"Do you think that after cleaning up these weird things in front of you, all the problems on Maoshan Mountain have been solved?" Jiang Tian sneered again: "The remaining red mist in the mountain still hasn't dissipated, and the Huayang Palace and Zhongguan that fell into it are also the same. Potential problems, not to mention, based on past experience;”
"Such groups of strange monsters have been lingering in the mountains these days, and they have not continued to threaten the Shanguan Palace at the foot of the mountain; nor have they taken the opportunity to break through the barrier of the outer wall of the mountain gate to wreak havoc and harm the densely populated villages, towns and cities on the plains. Doesn’t anyone think it’s quite abnormal?”
"What I'm even more suspicious of is, what are these monsters guarding in the dark? Whether it's the hatching and breeding nest built in the mountains, or the exit and special altar for the monsters to appear in the world; they all need further work to clear holes and eliminate pests. Do it! So, it depends on your performance next."
"But please... Master's orders?" Hearing this, Yuan Mingzi sighed: "The small path will re-check and check the remaining Taoists and disciples in the mountain, and select the upper palace and middle palace of (Huayang). How about I leave it to your Excellency to interrogate me in detail about my previous experiences and experiences?”
"Okay, then tell me what you want." Jiang Tian seemed to be very satisfied with his knowledge and asked: Yuan Mingzi hesitated for a moment before pleading: "The Xiaodao is really impossible to think about, and there is nothing else to ask for. I only ask you not to mention the name of the trail in your report to the court."
"So, even you think that those people who ran away and disappeared one after another in Maoshan have some problems and doubts?" Jiang Tian couldn't help but smiled and said: Yuan Mingzi's face was blank, and he looked silently. Looking at the mouth and nose, it seems to be acquiescing to this tendency.
"It doesn't matter..." Then Jiang Tian nodded and said: "Maybe I will use you and the remaining survivors as a means of fishing afterwards!". Before he finished speaking, a faint vibration from far to near suddenly sounded in the hall. The dust and gravel on the ground and the furnishings on the four walls also shook slightly.
Later, when Jiang Tian walked out of the main hall, he saw the rocks and earthflow rolling down between several mountain tops in the distance, carrying large amounts of dust flying; like a roaring dragon, destroying everything along the way with overwhelming force, and finally He rushed to Huayang Zhongguan in the distance and stopped.
In the blink of an eye, the palaces, pavilions, pavilions and eaves of Huayang Zhongguan, together with the powdery mist that shrouded it during the period, turned into mud and ruins strewn in troubled times; the Jijin Peak further away collapsed Under the mountain, where the Huayang Palace building originally stood, there is only a pile of newly turned earth and rocks.
"Is this... an unknown existence in the mountains, eager to destroy the credentials and hide itself?" However, Jiang Tian, who witnessed all this, sneered: "But there is nothing so cheap in the world. Each team of experts prepares equipment and follows me to conduct an in-depth investigation."
At the same time, "Shi Potian", who was helping to clean up the ruins, had already walked around an extra circle, and there were offerings of incense and candles lit on the spot. After a while, "Shi Potian" began to walk forward amidst the shaking of the ground as he walked, accompanied by a group of sergeants shouting in front and back.
Wherever the tall stone man passed, the soft ground filled with rocks and soil was rapidly rolling, squirming, and deforming, condensing into flat and unusually circular areas, which were then trampled by the heavy stone man. Further consolidate; in a blink of an eye, a channel is opened up.
Even the huge rocks blocking the road that collapsed from the mountain could not stop the progress of "Shi Potian"; I saw it stretched out its hand and gently moved, and it looked like thousands or tens of thousands of kilograms of chaotic boulders; just like a plaything were thrown aside; the entire collapsed mountain rock was easily knocked to pieces.
And every time he lifted up and smashed a huge boulder or rock, he drew cheers from the marching soldiers, as well as the Taoist priests who followed and the civilians recruited from the mountains, who followed up with continuous shouts and screams; just like I am witnessing this scene, which is like a miraculous scene.
And when the tall stone man finally arrived at Huayang Zhongguan, which was destroyed by the landslide, under the command of Jiang Tian on his shoulder, he began to fully activate the innate ability awakened by becoming a stone monster. The earth and rocks that submerged most of Huayang Zhongguan began to flow like life.
Amidst the rumbling sounds of continuous rolling and friction, the mountains of earth and rocks in the ruins were guided and divided into several dark-brown currents; one after another rushed out of the construction area of Huayang Zhongguan, and also exposed the The ruins, human and animal corpses buried below...
At this time, with an order, the sergeants who were summoned rushed into the ruins of Huayang Zhongguan and began to search and clean up the possible dangerous residues and remaining alien corpses; while the civilian men who were summoned, The corpses and remains were dug out from the earth and rocks that poured out of the periphery.
As for the Taoist priests, they began to set up altars, wore various robes, and brandished swords, mirrors, seals and other magical weapons, and began to pray on the spot. At the same time, the armor controlled by Jiang Tian came to the original location of the Patriarch's Cave; as expected, the original Fengsheng Hall building had collapsed.
Affected by this shock, many sealed stone caves in the Patriarch's Cave also experienced varying degrees of collapse and cracking. But it was precisely because of the cracks in the cave that Jiang Tian once again glimpsed some unusual traces, such as small pipes exposed in the cracks.
And in these flat or round pipe cracks, there are still some dried mucus residues. In the inner training cave hall, spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the originally empty stone wall; as Jiang Tian suddenly reached out and pushed from a distance, the stone wall suddenly collapsed inward.
In the end, a huge and sinister hole was left. Obviously, there is actually another hidden space behind the cave hall where the ancestor practiced. However, when Jiang Tian stepped into it first, he couldn't help but let out a sigh. Because, behind this stone wall is a huge downward hole.
And on the four cracked walls, there are still dense stripes carved manually, as well as traces of wide spiral steps up and down; there are even recessed lamp niches specially illuminated, which can be seen from the residual oil stains and blackened ashes. See, it's been around and used for a long time.
Although this is not a big deal; as an ancient sect, Maoshan has some secret passages and secret rooms, which is not unusual. But in Man A's unique gray vision, the squirming remains of recently killed living bodies crisscrossed the four walls; it was no accident.
Therefore, following the direction of these traces, Man A spiraled down all the way, and after a few breaths he arrived at the bottom of the cavity; but with a click, he stepped on a pile of tiny bone fragments; at this moment, it was like inspiring something In general, bright spots of light suddenly appeared from the four walls.
The next moment, Jiang Tian clearly understood the source of these light spots through Ren Jia's vision; they were crystal worms emerging one after another from the tube holes on the four walls; these worms were as big as an arm and as small as a thumb. The baits above the head are like fluorescent granules, snaking towards each other in a hurry.
As Jiang Tian's body thought moved slightly, Man A immediately conjured up a thick, unprocessed pig leg as food out of thin air, and threw it heavily on the ground; he also instantly absorbed a large number of these transparent worms, swarming over them. entangled and entangled; almost submerging the ground of the large hollow;
In an instant, with the sound of chirping, these worms covered in strange mucus and their secretions devoured the huge pig legs, melting them to pieces and leaving the bones visible; and then continued in circles. It shrank, and eventually even the big bones became crispy, cracked, and scattered on the ground.
Only then did Jiang Tian realize that the fine gravel at the bottom of the cavity was actually composed of the excrement of countless transparent worms; decomposed and absorbed bone fragments. However, Man A suddenly flashed out of the way, and the frost that spread instantly froze a large worm, and he punched it down suddenly.
With a bang, the worms that were frozen into clumps shattered into pale ice slag on the ground. But then the worm fragments revealed by the melting of the ice slag had no activity at all, leaving only a piece of rotten meat with a bad smell, which was still rapidly festering and disintegrating in the remaining mucus.
Jiang Tian immediately understood. Including the Lord of Shoushan Palace who disappeared into the seal, it is very likely that those high-level officials of Maoshan have not truly become immortals. Instead, in a sealed environment, they were slowly devoured and digested by these transparent worms that sneaked in along the gaps leading to the seal.
However, as a living person with normal thinking and reaction, after encountering this kind of life danger, he should call for help or struggle to resist; unless there is a problem with the person responsible for daily guarding, or if he has been drugged and paralyzed in advance, only Can be drilled into the body alive...
While Ren A continued to explore the underground, Jiang Tian's body was discovered again. As "Shi Potian"'s land activation ability advanced, he finally reached the end of the mountain valley and uncovered most of the earth and rocks that buried Huayang Palace, only to reveal a relatively intact underground palace exit.
Yuan Mingzi, who was accompanying them, couldn't help but look happy and said with luck: "This is the snow cave in Huayang Palace used to preserve special materials and medicinal materials. It is cool and dry all year round. If someone were to hide in it, Maybe we can hold on until now with inventory.”
