Chapter 1382, Thousand Corpses Qi Gathering Formation
Under the gaze of those two strange portrait murals, Lu Feng and Ning Xiang stepped through the passage.
I originally thought that the coffin corridor was already very weird and creepy, until I stepped through the passage and saw the scene in front of me...
Lu Feng's scalp couldn't help but feel numb.
The first thing you see is a wider passage, with countless pits dug into the stone walls on both sides, extending into the depths like rows of bookshelves.
But what is displayed on this bookshelf is not jade slips and classics, but white bones and skulls.
As far as the eye can see, there is no end in sight.
At least four to five hundred meters, with thousands of skulls!
Seeing the scene in front of him, Lu Feng was shocked and at the same time, he also became suspicious of his previous guess.
Such a display of heads is not something that can be found in ordinary small-scale tombs.
Even in that dynasty, probably only the burial pits in emperors' tombs could meet such standards.
But the scene in front of me does not seem to be a grave with human heads.
On the contrary, it is like the hobbies of evil cultivators, and they are deliberately displayed to show their glory.
There was even a faint aura of formation fluctuations, as if they were afraid of being touched and destroyed.
With this thought, Lu Feng couldn't help but feel even more horrified.
This tomb...could it be the tomb of an evil cultivator! ?
Know the danger.
Lu Feng forced himself to suppress the worries in his heart, and rushed into the depths of the tomb without any hesitation. Even if he succeeded in finding a group of disciples, he might not be able to save them, but he would also be trapped in this weird and infiltrating world. Inside the tomb.
The prerequisite for saving people is to have enough confidence!
You need to first understand the dangers of where you are.
Rather than being reckless.
Although this was not the first time Ning Xiang had walked through this passage, she was still frightened when she was underground. Especially when her eyes glanced at the countless skulls on both sides, she always felt more eerie and terrifying.
It was as if there were countless resentful souls and countless people who had died in vain staring at him with undying eyes.
My heart couldn't stop feeling frightened.
As Lu Feng moved forward, he asked cautiously: "When the Bottle Spirit Sect and the others saw such an environment, did they behave abnormally? Or did they say anything?"
Ning Xiang shook her head, "Most of them were quite scared, and they even cursed a few words like, 'What kind of evil place is this?' Only the leader, Huo Qiu, had a hint of excitement on his face, like Something was discovered.”
"The senior brother of Qingshan Sword Sect caught his sly smile and questioned him."
"But Huo Qiu didn't respond with any useful words. He just said that so many heads means that the tomb realm is huge and they have become prosperous this time."
"He also seriously warned us that if we don't want to die, we must not touch those white bones and skulls with our bare hands, and we must not arbitrarily test the spiritual energy."
Lu Feng nodded sternly: "What he said is right. There is an evil formation here. Once the Yin Qi trapped in the skulls of countless white bones is touched, unpredictable danger will burst out."
It was this discovery that made him slow down a bit and become more cautious.
Ning Xiang thought for a while and asked, "Is it some sort of Jiyang or Fillyuan Soul Sacrifice Formation?"
"It's the Qi Gathering Formation of Thousand Corpses," Lu Feng responded subconsciously, and at the same time asked, "Who did you hear about the strange formation you mentioned?"
"It's Huo Qiu!" Ning Xiang was shocked and cursed fiercely: "He was indeed a liar at that time. Senior Brother Zhu Dong of Qingshan Sword Sect was harmed by him!"
Lu Feng's face darkened, and just as he was about to ask for details, he suddenly saw a corpse lying on the ground in the passage in the distance.
Through the dim light of the illuminating jade beads in his hand, he could vaguely make out that the man was wearing the clothes of a disciple of the Qingshan Sword Sect. His face was as dark as the ground, as if he had been dead for a long time!
"That's Senior Brother Zhu Dong."
Ning Xiang's face was solemn, her little hands clenched into fists, full of anger: "If it weren't for Huo Qiu deceiving us, Senior Brother Zhu Dong would never have died here!"
Lu Feng looked gloomy and walked away.
Because Zhu Dong happened to be lying across the middle of the passage, Ning Xiang subconsciously wanted to move some distance and straighten him.
But Lu Feng stopped him.
"His whole body is invaded by Yin Qi. If he comes into contact with the breath of a stranger, he will be shocked."
Ning Xiang stood on one side without knowing why.
Lu Feng raised his hand and pointed at Zhu Dong's body, slightly shocked.
The next moment, Zhu Dong's body suddenly twisted and trembled in a ferocious posture, accompanied by the sound of creaking bones.
He suddenly stood up from the ground, took two crooked steps, and then fell down heavily.
This scene frightened Ning Xiang so much that her pretty face turned pale.
If Lu Feng hadn't warned him in advance, he would have been so frightened that he would have fainted.
With a trembling voice, Ning Xiang stammered and asked: "Master... master, what's wrong with him?"
Lu Feng further explained: "After the death of a cultivator, the spiritual energy in the body will dissipate in a short period of time, but not all the spiritual energy will dissipate, and some of the spiritual energy that is integrated into the flesh and bones is difficult to eliminate. Over time, As time goes by, the corpse will decay and turn into Yin Qi."
"The core of the Qi Gathering Formation of Thousand Corpses is to gather this Yin Qi and turn it into a means of attack."
"Zhu Dong must have been attacked by such a formation, and the yin energy entered his body, so he was disturbed by the yang energy emitted by me when he came into contact with me. The yin energy in his body was activated, and a frightening scene appeared. , which is what the secular world often calls a fake corpse.”
Ning Xiang listened in a daze and finally understood.
The moment Lu Feng finished explaining, under the concussive effects of the blow he just made, streams of gray aura began to emerge from Zhu Dong's body, drifting towards the stone walls on both sides and melting back into the formation.
This scene also made Lu Feng more convinced of the existence of the Qi Gathering Formation of Thousand Corpses.
At the same time, I was also curious about Ning Xiang’s previous words.
"Tell Zhu Dong's death exactly as it is."
Ning Xiang nodded quickly, "After Huo Qiu finished his warning words, we all obeyed honestly and did not dare to act rashly due to the unknown danger of the situation."
"But Senior Brother Zhu Dong and the others were very unhappy with Huo Qiu's disdainful attitude. I overheard them talking secretly, saying that they couldn't stand Huo Qiu's arrogance and felt that they couldn't get through here without Huo Qiu. Seems like it."
"Shortly afterwards, Senior Brother Zhu Dong was dissatisfied and started to test Huo Qiu's words in the second half of the walk. He wanted to verify Huo Qiu's words to see if they were true or if he was bluffing."
"As he slashed at the white skull on the shelf with a sharp sword, a terrifying vision suddenly erupted. Countless dark gases instantly gathered into a huge skeleton, suspended in front of him, and moved towards him at an extremely fast speed. His body blasted through.”
"Senior Brother Zhu Dong was condensed by this huge skeleton... It should be the Yin Qi you mentioned, Master, and invaded his body. However, due to his strong strength and timely response, he still supported the protection and resisted that... General formation."
"If we had worked together to rescue him and protected him from the passage, we would have had a chance to save him."
"But Huo Qiu stopped us, and swore that this was some kind of formation to absorb the sun and sacrifice the soul. Once it touches the soul of a living person, it must be sacrificed with life, otherwise it will never be possible to calm down. He also said that if Senior Brother Zhu Dong Without risking one's own life, it would be difficult for any of us to survive."
"Hearing this, Senior Brother Zhu Dong shouted in despair at the other senior brothers of Qingshan Sword Sect who wanted to come to support."
"Because of these words, he gave up the resistance he could still maintain and took the initiative to sacrifice himself to the terrifying Yin Qi."
When Ning Xiang said this, her mood couldn't help but become full of indignation, "I realize now that all of this is a lie fabricated by Huo Qiu. He was the one who killed Brother Zhu Dong!"
"On the way here, I also ate the dried meat given by Senior Brother Zhu Dong. He was very nice..."
The more Ning Xiang thought about it, the moister her eyes became.
Lu Feng's murderous intention was stirring, and his face was filled with coldness. At this moment, if he met Huo Qiu and his ilk, he would be killed without hesitation.
But what they encountered next were just a few cold iron figurines.
This is the end of the white-bone skull passage. There are stone chambers separated by stone doors. In a space of more than thirty square meters, more than ten iron figurines are displayed.
However, at this moment, these iron figurines are leaning together in twos and threes, and they are bound by huge chains.
】
Ning Xiang said: "This is all done by the other senior brothers of Qingshan Sword Sect. They were angry at the death of senior brother Zhu Dong. At that time, they did not know that it was Huo Qiu's insidious deception, so they vented all their anger on these iron After beating them all to pieces on the figurines, they were bound together with chains."
Lu Feng carefully inspected the motionless iron figurines and found that there was a strange aura of formation inside each one, and there seemed to be a hint of evil.
Judging from the layout of the bones and skeleton passage in the front section, with the power of the Qi Gathering Formation of Thousand Corpses and the amount of Yin Qi gathered by so many skulls, it is no problem to kill ordinary former Soul Breathing Masters in the Heavenly Soul Realm.
The stone chamber behind it should have a higher defense level and be more dangerous. How could these iron figurines with only the aura of the early Earth Soul Realm be placed?
This is somewhat unreasonable.
There must be some unknown mystery hidden there.
Lu Feng thought about the Yin-Yang Gate set up at the original entrance, and thought that what they were in now was the Gate of Life, which was supposed to be much less dangerous than the Gate of Death.
Take the previous skull passage as an example. Just sensing it from a distance without taking the initiative to offend would not reduce the danger.
Could it be that the stone chamber in front of me is also based on this layout?
What key node does it need to trigger for its real killer move?
Lu Feng looked back at the closed stone door behind him. He had closed it out of habit and to block the Yin Qi that might break out in the passage.
If there are restrictions in the bodies of these iron figurines, they need to be induced by the Yin Qi at the entrance of the passage...
Then the strength of these iron puppets may be far beyond the earth soul level.
Thinking of this, Lu Feng couldn't help but sigh, Huo Qiu's villain's evil deeds, unexpectedly, allowed everyone to avoid a disaster. If people who were invaded by Yin Qi were allowed to enter this stone room, I'm afraid the outcome would be... It’s different.
