This man who Gu Yuan had seen twice was wearing a black and white, loose robe. The wind on the altar seemed a bit strong, and the hem of the robe was blown up by the wind, and then poured into the clothes, bulging as if stuffed. A big ball of cotton.
In front of him, there was a broken stone tablet that was as tall as a person. The traces on it were not clear, but some kind of intricate runes could be vaguely seen.
The stone tablet is full of traces that have been carved by time. Even if you can't understand the content on it, when you look at it, it will still give people an eerie feeling.
The man in the red cloak took two steps forward and looked at the damaged stone tablet, with a pious expression on his face.
"Your Majesty, is the soul of the ancient demon king really here?"
The mysterious man in the robe turned his face, glanced at him, and said in a contemptuous tone: "Are you questioning me?"
Hearing this, the man in the red cloak turned pale with fright. He quickly lowered his head and said in the most humble tone: "Your Majesty, please believe me, I didn't mean this. I'm just... a little excited! Excited! Yes, That's it……"
The mysterious man laughed.
"Don't worry, I have been waiting for this opportunity as early as ten years ago."
"Your Majesty, do you need me to kill that guy named Gu Yuan?"
"No need." The mysterious man frowned and shook his head, "If necessary, you can intercept him, but don't kill him."
The red cloak's face was full of doubts.
The fear and awe in his heart towards the mysterious man were not caused by the other person saying a few words.
He knows better than anyone how terrifying this "His Majesty" is.
Anyone who messes with him will not end well.
Moreover, Your Majesty has never been an indecisive person.
But now, Gu Yuan's appearance has obviously caused some trouble for them. If the other party is allowed to track them all the way here, they might even destroy this "sacrifice".
Once the ancient demon king's soul is not awakened, all their previous efforts will be in vain.
Don't talk to him about such serious consequences.
Even the "honored one" in front of me can't bear it.
"Your Majesty..."
"Get out of the way, the sacrifice is about to begin." A gleam flashed in the mysterious man's eyes. He slowly stretched out his hand, leveling it with the ground. In an instant, the intricate patterns under his feet bloomed with dazzling brilliance.
The wind suddenly rises and the sky thunders!
A look of horror immediately appeared on the red cloak's face, and he quickly retreated until he left the altar.
Looking at the broken stone tablet emitting light patterns on the altar, he slowly placed his hand on his chest and his eyes gradually became intense.
"King of the demon clan! Please come to this world..."
He could not awaken the soul, but as a demon clan, he needed to pray in his heart in the most pious way.
On the altar, behind the stone tablet, lay twenty or thirty children, no more than ten years old, both boys and girls.
They used some tricks to make them fall asleep completely. After all, the awake children were too noisy, and the mysterious man didn't want to hear a lot of crying and howling.
Before a child is ten years old, he or she has an innate Qi, which is the purest and the best sacrifice. But once he or she reaches the age of ten, the innate Qi will completely disappear and become as turbid as the world.
In many places in Daxia, a child's "tenth birthday" is celebrated with a big banquet. This is a watershed moment.
Unfortunately, it's summer vacation now.
Otherwise, it would be simpler and more direct to close a kindergarten directly.
only.
He couldn't wait.
The demon king's soul also couldn't wait.
He picked up a knife and slowly cut his palm open, but what came out was not red blood, but flowing golden light spots.
He slowly pressed his hand on the stone tablet, and the stone tablet seemed to be given life, greedily absorbing the golden light spots, and the light patterns displayed on the holy tablet became more and more gorgeous.
The mysterious man was expressionless, watching all this silently, but his face was turning pale at a speed visible to the naked eye.
When the light pattern was strong enough, the man took a step back and muttered something complex and difficult to pronounce.
"Bang" sound.
He crushed the jade walnut he had been playing with for a long time, and everyone in red cloak showed a surprised expression when they saw this scene.
Every time I see the mysterious man, he is playing with the pair of jade walnuts. It can be seen that they are very precious, but now they are crushed into pieces.
When the jade walnut was crushed, two groups of green light also poured into the stone tablet, but they were not swallowed up. Instead, they slowly flowed along the special lines on the stone tablet, like a boat going upstream.
As time goes by, the two green light groups become larger and brighter, occupying almost a quarter of the stone monument. At first glance, they look like a pair of strange eyes.
…
Gu Yuan passed through the dark cave and suddenly stopped.
"Brother, we can't go there, I'm so scared..."
This is Xiao Ai's voice.
As he slowly approached, Xiao Ai's mood became more and more urgent.
Even when he speaks, he will cry.
This has never happened before.
"is that so……"
"Brother, what a terrifying smell, can you feel it?"
Gu Yuan said nothing.
In fact, before Xiao Ai spoke, he felt a bone-chilling chill.
Deep into the bone marrow.
The last time he felt like this was when he, as an ordinary person, fell into the demon realm.
For a moment, Gu Yuan's consciousness seemed to be pulled back into the strange train carriage.
My hands and feet are cold and my brain is numb.
The terrifying Qi machine is like the blood in the blood vessels, flowing in this space.
"Brother, did you hear me?"
"What?" Gu Yuan was stunned.
"I heard it, it was breathing... the Demon King's breath came from ancient times."
Gu Yuan's pupils suddenly shrank.
Demon King?
According to his knowledge.
The Demon King is already an SSS-level existence among the Demon Clan.
But……
How could a demon king appear in Star City?
If there really is an SSS-level demon clan presence in Star City, even if Daxia Kingdom's masters gather, Star City will become cannon fodder and be completely crushed, without even having any room to fight back.
He knew that Li Siming was very powerful, but even Li Siming couldn't be the opponent of the Demon King, right?
"Brother, his breathing is very weak, like... a baby." Xiao Ai continued.
Gu Yuan did not hesitate.
He clenched the knife in his hand and continued walking forward.
There is no retreat!
Sudden.
A red light appeared in front.
The rainbow of light flows rapidly, carrying a strong evil spirit.
Gu Yuan raised the evil-suppressing knife in his hand, instilled the Yuan Qi in his body, and then slashed forward.
The bursting Yuan Qi collided with the rainbow light, making a loud noise, and in an instant, the entire cave was shaking.
Immediately, the rainbow of light slowly condensed, revealing a humanoid monster with gray hair on its body.
The monster landed on the ground, and without even saying a word, it rushed towards Gu Yuan.
The monster raised his hand, and Gu Yuan noticed something strange about him.
The palm connected to the arm is a weird pointed length, especially the ten fingers, each one is like a sword.
With a "clang" sound, the evil-suppressing knife collided with the opponent's hand. Bright sparks splashed in the dark cave. Gu Yuan's body quickly retreated, but the monster rushed up at an extremely fast speed.
Without any time to think, Gu Yuan moved his feet, dodging in this small and oppressive space.
But he is fast, and the monster is even faster!
He slashed and slashed one after another, but was dodged by the other side. This feeling was very strange, as if this was a movie arranged by a famous director. Every stab by Gu Yuan seemed to be within the scope of the script, and the monster became his opponent. actors, cooperating with Gu Yuan's performance.
Another slash in the air exposed Gu Yuan's weakness, and five sharp fingers dug into his chest. Fortunately, the body's defense was improved and tempered, so Gu Yuan did not suffer much damage except for some pain.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Gu Yuan quickly took a step forward, raised the evil-suppressing knife in his hand, whipped up a strong wind, and instantly knocked the hairy creature away.
However, the body of the hairy creature only spun twice in the air and then hung upside down on the mountain wall.
Like a bat hanging upside down.
"Come on, let's fight again!" Gu Yuan shouted.
The hairy creature didn't seem to understand what Gu Yuan was talking about, and just continued to charge at Gu Yuan.
The gray hair shone with a hazy brilliance, condensed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and turned into a pair of twisted wings. As the wings flickered, the speed suddenly increased a lot.
Gu Yuan knew in his heart that if there was a speed competition, he would never be the opponent's opponent.
With his strong defense, he is not afraid of the opponent's attacks, but similarly, his attacks hardly pose a threat to the opponent.
then.
Gu Yuan seized the opportunity and performed another trick. With the help of space ability and mysterious fire, the flames instantly swallowed the hairy creature.
Its shrill screams echoed in the cave.
Gu Yuan's face turned pale and he slowly leaned against the wall. Feeling the excessive consumption of Yuan Qi in his body, he raised his head and looked at the light in another part of the cave. For a moment, he felt a little confused.
On the altar.
The mysterious man slowly opened his eyes and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
"Are there space rules...interesting..."
