Dusk has arrived, and as we enter the depths of the ringed mountains, the cold air is obviously getting heavier and the light is getting dimmer.
At this point, the ghosts and ghosts who were hiding in the dark and targeting Li Xiu and the others no longer dared to follow them. Except for the footsteps of Li Xiu and the others, the surroundings were silent.
There are large areas on the ground like those plowed by oxen, which have obviously been severely damaged. They are ruins and are more completely destroyed than outside. The original construction of this city was obviously designed by experts. Deep in the ring mountain range, there is another city within a city. This is the real fortress. Li Xiu and the others have already entered the fortress. There was originally a powerful drainage project here. After it was destroyed, the fortress began to accumulate water in some places. It was humid and extremely cold. There were so many dark creatures that even a warrior like Zhu Menghai, who could compete with the mid-stage Nascent Soul, was trembling a little. , a lot of goosebumps oozed out from the skin.
Feeling the threat of dark creatures, Li Xiu didn't want to make a big fuss here, fearing that it would cause the mountain to collapse, which would cause a lot of unnecessary trouble. Let Song Bajiu and Tang Biao speed up their pace. There is no need to be so cautious. At the same time, let Yangzi take out the lighting object to deter the dark creatures. Yangzi took out the sunstone, which is a rare mineral unique to the Yang tribe. It is almost as rare as Li Xiu's fire crystal, but its effect is relatively useless. Except for the pure Yang bodies like Li Xiu and others who can absorb and refine it, Minerals such as sunstone and fire quartz are almost mere decorations and luxury goods. With the sunstone illuminating them, rustling sounds could be heard endlessly. The dark creatures were afraid of light and did not dare to attack Li Xiu and the others easily.
Song Bajiu and Tang Biao quickly walked through the ruins, with Li Xiu and the others following closely behind. About half the time it took for the incense to stick, they had already passed the fortress and entered the interior of the mountain. Li Xiu sensed that the interior of the mountain was a huge project. The passage alone was nearly twenty feet high and fifteen feet wide. Li Xiu calculated it and estimated that they had penetrated Bowang Mountain for dozens of miles. But this huge passage has not changed at all, maintaining its height and width! Not only that, Li Xiu discovered that there were also some small passages, forming many branching roads.
This mountain is actually connected in all directions.
What kind of people, and what kind of needs, must dig out the passage for such a huge project?
Just at this moment, Song Bajiu and the others suddenly stopped. Song Bajiu pointed not far ahead and said: "It's right here. Senior Brother Lu was imprisoned in this place at the beginning. It was I who secretly guided the reinforcements here, and then Senior Brother Lu was imprisoned here." Rescued."
Lu Youshi said happily with a face full of joy: "So that's it. I asked you why they were able to find me so quickly! It's really thanks to you, junior brothers, that I was able to escape and was lucky enough to meet Brother Li."
Li Xiudao: "Don't rush to talk about this yet, let's take us to see what he calls human skin!"
There was darkness ahead. Yangzi took out the sunstone and flew forward. As the light spread, everyone was surprised and had incredible expressions on their faces, including Li Xiu.
If we say that the passage in the mountain is a big project, then what we see before us cannot be described in words. It is really a unique cave, and the radius is infinite. Not only that, there is a strange pulling force here, which not only blocks the scanning of divine consciousness, but also absorbs divine consciousness. Even Li Xiu can only scan a radius of about twenty miles.
This is an underground space with no load-bearing beams and pillars, violating the laws of physics.
The ceiling is very smooth, and there is no trace of artificial axe. The ground is made of granite, as flat as a mirror.
What surprised Li Xiu and the others was not this, but the countless deep pits in this vast flat land. At the end of the line of sight, some strange houses and high platforms seemed to be faintly visible, and there seemed to be some corpses in ancient costumes hanging on the high platforms...
Suddenly a sharp sound flew through the air, shattering the sunstone and scattering it all over the ground. A figure suddenly fell in front of Li Xiu and the others.
The man was tall and tall, wearing a round-collared robe with disheveled hair that completely blocked his face. There were a few crunching sounds, and the man's head twisted on his shoulders. Just now, it was the back of his head. This time, when he turned his head, everyone saw clearly that it was a faceless man with no facial features.
"Hey hey hey... Who told you to break into the secret realm? You are so brave!" The sharp voice of the Wuxiang Man came from his abdomen.
"Pretend to be a ghost!" Yangzi had long been impatient, and with a sway, he headed towards the Wuxiang man to kill him.
The formless figure was like a ghost, just like a piece of clothing without flesh and blood. It was flying up and down, darting left and right, and its movements were like teleportation. Yoko couldn't hold it down for a moment.
"No, this monster has woken up, run!" Song Bajiu and Tang Biao were trembling violently, extremely frightened. Suddenly, with a pop, they turned into two puffs of thick smoke on the spot, trying to escape.
Li Xiu stretched out his hand to grab the thick smoke. How could characters like them escape? Without saying a word, he activated the real fire and burned the two of them into two piles of ashes.
This sudden change did not allow Lu Youshi and Zhu Menghai to react at all. Seeing that his two junior brothers were actually killed by Li Xiu and turned into ashes, Lu Youshi was shocked, angry and angry, and cried out uncontrollably. : "Li Xiu, are you crazy?"
Li Xiudao: "Brother Lu, it's difficult for me to explain to you with your IQ. You only need to do one thing now, which is to save your own life and not be distracted in the slightest to avoid being troubled by evil spirits! "
Lu Youshi was about to scold Li Xiu when suddenly there was a loud sound of wind. In an instant, strings of human skins flew out from the countless deep pits. Each human skin turned into a He turned into a figureless man and swarmed towards Li Xiu and others, killing them.
"Yangzi, don't stop fighting! Wake up!" Li Xiu shouted. After finishing his words, he flipped his palm, and a red light suddenly appeared in his palm. Li Xiu shot the red light out without hesitation. After it landed, there was a loud bang, and it was a fire crystal goddess statue.
In an instant, fire splashed everywhere, and the aura of burning mountains and boiling seas filled everything. The goddess statue seemed to come to life, and actually opened a pair of huge eyes. The eyes were not in the shape of beams, but turned into two light waves and shot out.
There was a sound of glass shattering, countless human skins and formless people turned to ashes in the air, and there were bursts of harsh and hysterical roars.
"Om, Mi, Bam, Buzz, Shout!" Li Xiu took back the statue of the goddess, recited the mantra of the three corpses, and stamped the ground with his soles.
With a bang, everyone trembled as if they were helped by gods, and evil spirits could not invade. The pupils that had lost focus became active again.
"Brother..." Yangzi also woke up but stopped talking.
Li Xiu waved his hand and said: "It seems that we have met an old rival. Since they have taken such pains to 'invite' me here, I can't let them down no matter what!"
Others couldn't understand this meaningless sentence, but Yoko started to think about it, old rival? Could it be that the masters of the East China Sea are setting up a formation here?
Lu Youshi and Zhu Menghai also woke up. Lu Youshi shook his head, and soon he noticed the two piles of ashes under his feet again. Then he also discovered that a huge glazed mirror in front of him had been smashed into pieces.
He was confused.
what on earth is it?
Li Xiudao: "Lu Youshi, you are being taken advantage of. If I hadn't had some skills, I would have just fallen into an endless topsy-turvy dream just like you. Even if I was cut into pieces and skinned, I still wouldn't be able to wake up. That's it. Just like those formless people you just saw, become one of them and fall into the mirror world of the glazed mirror, from which you will never be able to escape forever."
"Brother Li...what do you mean by this?" Lu Youshi's face looked unhappy.
Li Xiudao: "Do you still remember the person you said pretending to be Wang Miao? You think he is from Skynet, which seems inaccurate. I think this method is definitely not the magic of the Red Lotus Sect, but comes from the East China Sea. Bin, he may be a master of the underground network. You were deceived and used by him. In fact, you never went to Tianshui City to meet Ma Tiancheng. After you were caught in the smoke, you were taken away by that person and you were actually kept here. , your people have never come to rescue you. Of course, Song Bajiu and Tang Biao are just your inner demons. The actual situation is that when you went to Huoxia Valley to look for the red-robed fire ghost ten years ago, you were the six inner demons. As the leader of the disciples, you are the only survivor. You have witnessed the whole process of the dragon master letting your junior brother and the young masters of various sects wear human skin and taking them away! This is also why you later became a disciple. The reason why you spend so much effort to find out the red-robed fire ghost. This is the big fear deep in your heart, and now it is being used by others. They made this trick and deliberately let you go, leading you to the Sword Tomb where you met me by chance. Come on, the purpose of telling these stories from your mouth is to lure me here!"
Lu Youshi was shocked and speechless.
Yang Zi said: "Brother, you have already suspected why the other party pretended to be Wang Miao. Wang Miao's appearance in this story is quite abrupt. It turns out that it is to increase the interest and vividness of the story. At the same time, Wang Miao is Han This part of the sworn brotherhood of City Lang Bailifu is very important. Hancheng is what I care about the most. If you don’t add this part, I may not come to Bowang Mountain to find out what’s going on!”
Li Xiu raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Oh, it seems that the brief meeting between Lu Youshi and me at the gate of Hanchen Academy has already fallen into the eyes of interested people. This situation has been laid out since then. It's really interesting."
Yangzi said: "Brother, you are right. Whether it is Skynet or Darknet, they must be eradicated. Otherwise, if they want to harm people, they will be completely defenseless and impossible to defend against!"
Lu Youshi suddenly said indifferently: "Brother Li, you...how did you know that I am the leader of the six inner disciples going to Huoxia Valley?"
Li Xiudao: "Okay, Brother Lu, let the past be bygones. The inner demons are at work, which is extremely detrimental to your practice. You must cheer up and eliminate the inner demons. It is the right way! People live their lives with dignity and integrity. They lose their way for fame and fortune. The gain is not worth the loss. You must know that a lie requires a hundred and a thousand lies to cover it. How can you practice? Don't say that you have such a Taoist mind. Even a master who is a hundred times more powerful than you can't do anything to me. Escape!"
Lu Youshi's eyes turned red and she said, "I... I was actually played with by someone. Is my Taoist heart really so unbearable?"
