The Blood Palace was extremely large in area. Everyone walked along the path for half an hour, but still did not reach the end. During this period, there was no change in the surroundings, except for the eternal darkness and the faintly glowing candles on the railings on both sides.
"There seems to be something wrong!" Suddenly, Xueyi stopped and looked to the left and right suspiciously.
The group of casual cultivators were walking behind the Xue Guan Dao people. Seeing Xue Yi stop, Cui Shuangyin said dissatisfied: "What could be wrong? Leave quickly, otherwise don't block the road!"
Seeing his bad attitude, several disciples of Xue Guan Dao looked at him displeased. A few of them with impatient tempers couldn't help but gather their strength and wanted to take action. However, Xue Yi waved his hand and stopped him, and then led him silently. Several junior brothers and sisters stepped aside.
"Hmph!" Seeing them giving in, Cui Shuangyin felt proud and in a good mood. He led a group of casual cultivators past them and chased behind the three Yin family members.
A Xue Guan Taoist disciple felt unhappy when he saw Cui Shuangyin's high-spirited appearance. He gritted his teeth and said, "Senior brother, why do you want to give in? You are just a group of loose cultivators in the mountains? The blood energy of Shenxue City is abundant. With the help of the terrain, we can fight one against ten... "
Before he could finish speaking, Xue Yi waved his hand gently, his expression seemed cold after being humiliated, but in fact there was a bit of a sneer in his eyes: "Don't worry, neither the Yin family nor this group of casual cultivators are anything to worry about. We must be on guard against those people from the Yin Yang Sect. Anyway, they are currently in the lead and they have the final say in everything. Let us stay low and wait patiently for the opportunity."
"Senior brother, great wisdom!" The disciple's face was full of admiration and he complimented him repeatedly.
Xueyi waved his hand slowly, with a calm and wise look on his face, but he was completely unaware that the communication between the two was overheard by Shi Chishang in front of him with his insight into the avenue.
"Can blood cultivators defeat one against ten with the help of the blood energy of the Divine Blood City?"
Shi Chishang's heart was slightly frightened. He estimated the actual combat power that could be exerted at present, and felt that he should be able to withstand this group of people. Then he relaxed a little, and then sent a message to Zhu Chaoqun and others about the matter.
Qian Yixin and others were shocked to hear that blood cultivators could still display such tyrannical strength here. Only Cheng Baihe frowned slightly and said suspiciously: "Isn't it that they are bragging? Divine Blood City For blood type cultivators, it is at most equivalent to volcanic lava compared to fire type cultivators. There may be an increase, but how can it increase tenfold?"
"Probably, right?" Shi Chishang was slightly startled, then realized later, "They said it in private, and they didn't mean to tell others..."
Cheng Baihe curled his lips: "They have a chief and a junior, what's so strange about complimenting and flattering them?"
Bang!
Just when Shi Chishang was suspicious, a muffled sound suddenly came from behind him, and then he heard the panicked shouts of several people in the casual cultivator team.
Shi Chishang turned around, his eyes suddenly condensed.
There were originally seventeen people in that group of casual cultivators, but two of them died in the battle with the Blood Ax bronze statue at the door. But at this moment, when Shi Chishang looked back, he only saw thirteen figures, two of whom actually disappeared out of thin air. .
No! Not missing, but all melted.
Yes, just like a candle, it melts.
At that time, Chi Shang passed by several people from the Yin family and walked closer. He was shocked to see two puddles of human-shaped slowly squirming wax mud-like liquid in the crowd. Through the surface of the liquid, Chi Shang could even vaguely see each other. facial features outline.
"It's so disgusting!" Zhizhi looked like he couldn't stand it and rubbed the goosebumps on his arms frantically. Although Cui Shuangyin, Yin Fei and others were well-informed, they were also shocked by the sight of melting out of thin air, and they looked at each other warily. about.
"Could it be them?" Kong Qixin looked at the people from Xue Guan Dao opposite him and whispered as he got behind Shi Chi Shang.
"Take a look first before talking!" Shi Chishang couldn't tell, mainly because the two pools of waxy mud-like liquid were so disgusting that even he was unwilling to touch them with his soul consciousness.
"It's you!" Suddenly, Cui Shuangyin seemed to have thought of something. He pulled out the butcher's knife, pointed angrily at the bloody spectators, and shouted, "It's you who have done something behind us!"
"What does it have to do with us?" Xueyi was stunned for a moment, then spread his hands and said with a smile, "If you don't pay attention, you may have encountered the agency somewhere, and it has nothing to do with us. Besides..."
Xue Yi stared at Cui Shuangyin with a playful smile: "If we really want to take action, we will deal with you. What are we going to do with these two novices?"
Cui Shuangyin was furious when he heard this. He was already a violent person. Now that he heard the provocation from Xue Yi, he immediately mobilized his ghost power and was about to step forward with his sword.
"go back!"
Shi Chishang frowned slightly, raised his hand to grab it, and the soul power shook the heaven and earth. A huge soul force came down, pressing Cui Shuangyin in place, and the evil spirit that had just burst out was suppressed back to the body. , the pain made his eyes widen, and his eyeballs almost popped out.
Raising his hand to restrain Cui Shuangyin, Shi Chishang looked at Xueyi and said calmly: "Fellow Blood Daoist is a blood system practitioner, and he must know more about blood system methods than we do. Why don't you come and see what method they died of."
Hearing that Shi Chishang was giving an order rather than a request, Xueyi's eyes narrowed slightly. However, when he saw Cui Shuangyin being easily suppressed by Shi Chishang's movements, his expression immediately became enthusiastic and kind, and he walked forward quickly with a smile: "No question!"
While Xue Yi led several Xue Guan Dao disciples to inspect the two pools of "wax mud", Shi Chi Shang was thinking about what might happen next.
Shi Chishang didn't worry too much about the Yin family, Xue Guan Tao, and the casual cultivator team.
As time went by, he analyzed the composition of the city's restrictions through insight into the avenue, and the resistance of the only avenue to the city's blood-based restrictions gradually increased. At this time, the strength he could exert had reached 83% of its peak. This The proportion is enough for him to cope with all the attacks at the Hades Lord level.
The only thing you need to worry about is the restrictions or other means left by Lexuetang.
But if he wanted to fight against that level of power, Shi Chishang had to use all his strength.
Fortunately, not long ago, he found the simulated avenue from the broken mirror, which allowed Shi Chishang to more or less conceal his attack methods.
Otherwise, once the clues are discovered by the outside world, in such a completely enclosed area, he will be blocked here directly. No matter how clever his escape method is, there will be no possibility of escape.
Just when Shi Chishang was thinking about it, Xueyi and the others finally made a discovery. Their faces, which had always been casual, now actually showed a bit of horror. They stood up in unison and quickly moved away from the two pools of "wax mud" .
"Pu-blood candle! It's a pus-blood candle!" A disciple of the Blood Temple's expression was distorted and he shouted in shock.
"Calm down!" Xueyi slapped the man in the face, first stopped his yelling, then waved his sleeves to extinguish several candles on the railing on the near side, and shouted, "Put out all the candles, these are pus and blood candles, once If you smell candle smoke, you will be contaminated by the power of pus and blood. When that power accumulates to the extreme, it will completely turn people into wax mud and melt."
Everyone panicked when they heard this, and they all took action to extinguish the candles. Everyone here was a master at the level of Hades. Their movements were so fast, but in just a blink of an eye, they had extinguished all the candles around them.
However, at this moment, Shi Chishang suddenly felt that there was an extremely powerful force approaching rapidly in the darkness in the distance. The force was so powerful that even with his current experience and state of mind, he still felt trembling all over.
"No! Stop pounce!"
In the flash of lightning, Shi Chishang reacted, and while shouting at everyone, he gathered several sparks to relight the nearby candles. As the candlelight lit up, the surrounding darkness receded, and the ominous power stopped in place, unwilling to wander away. After several laps, it slowly retreated into darkness.
"What do you mean?" Yin Zhe couldn't help but said angrily when he saw that he actually lit the candle again.
"Don't you feel it?" Shi Chishang was slightly startled, pointing to the source of the evil power and wondering, "You don't feel such a strong power? The light of these candles can block the darkness and prevent the approach of those evil things... …”
"How can it be dangerous? Are you scared out of your mind?" A casual cultivator sneered.
Everyone was staring at Shi Chishang, either looking confused or full of hostility. Only a few people such as Zhu Chaoqun could vaguely sense some ominous power. It seems that those blood-striped columns blocked their consciousness and prevented them from sensing it. The crisis hidden deep in the darkness.
Seeing that most of them looked confused, Shi Chishang felt slightly depressed. Then he thought of something, turned to look at Xueyi, frowned and said, "What about the power of pus and blood? Why can't I feel anything strange at all?"
Cheng Baihe also reacted when he heard the words. He concentrated on sensing for a moment, then took out a Qingshen Talisman and lit it, washed it up and down several times, and said in a deep voice: "I can't sense it at all, are you lying to us?"
Upon seeing this, the others also started checking, but no matter what methods they used, they could not detect the so-called power of pus and blood.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were getting colder and colder, Xueyi's heart sank and he hurriedly said: "Why should I lie to you? These people did die from the power of pus and blood. In the past, the Blood Red Empire's favorite was to use this kind of pus and blood candle. He is famous for torturing prisoners."
Shi Chishang looked at the blood clothes carefully and found that there was nothing strange about the other party's expression or soul fluctuations. It was indeed a normal reaction after being wronged. He was not sure for a while, because Solir Xiong's memory did have information about the Blood Candle. The information is no different from what Xue Yi said.
"Maybe there is something here that obscures our perception," Qian Yixiao suddenly said with a rare calmness, "It's just that the level of this thing is too high, so it can completely hide it from our perception, otherwise these two people would die. It doesn’t make sense.”
Seeing that everyone was arguing and the atmosphere was becoming more and more tense, two more wails were heard. This time they were from a casual cultivator and Yin Xia from the Yin family. Both of their bodies gradually softened like wax mud, and then became visible to the naked eye. The speed begins to melt.
"Sister!" Yin Zhe exclaimed when he saw this, and reached out to grab her, but was stopped by Yin Fei.
"Don't touch them!" Xue Yi was shocked and said solemnly, "Once they start to melt, it means that their bodies have been completely contaminated by the power of pus and blood, and they will be contaminated once they touch them."
"What should we do? How about we withdraw?" Hu Zhebin asked anxiously.
Shi Chishang turned to look in the direction he came from, and his soul consciousness spread back like a turbulent wave. After a few breaths, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he shook his head and said: "The palace door has been closed. It seems that it is impossible to go back, so we can only continue to go." forward!"
"Keep going? Are you looking for death?" Cui Shuangyin said angrily.
"Otherwise, what else can we do? Stay here and wait to die?" Shi Chishang's face turned solemn, and he turned and walked towards the depths of the hall, "Perhaps this is the way Li Xue Hall selects disciples. Only those who can walk through this path alive can , only then are you qualified to accept the inheritance.”
When they heard Shi Chi Shang's guess, many people looked forward to it. No matter what, at this moment they had no other choice but to take a chance and gamble on Shi Chi Shang's idea.
For a moment, everyone no longer moved forward slowly as before. They used various methods, either running away and running quickly, or using flying weapons, and rushed towards the depths of the hall along the walkway.
