Upon hearing the woman's words, most of the disciples immediately dispersed. Some followed the woman surnamed Lin and went to the tall buildings, while some left Shizhai in the air and flew towards nowhere.
Only Liu Ming and seven or eight people who were obviously here for the first time, looked at each other, and walked to the stone stele in the middle of the stockade.
After a cup of tea, Liu Ming finished reading the text on the stone tablet and made a slight turn in the stone village.
It was discovered that in addition to a small teleportation circle that could only be used under special circumstances, there was also a grocery shop and a crafting shop. The former specializes in providing some simple supplies such as bigu pill and spiritual liquid, while the other can repair some damaged talisman and some simple talisman for sale.
As for the other small stone houses, they are free for all the disciples participating in the suppression mission to rest and use.
Liu Ming had prepared all the supplies long before he came. At the moment, he just spent dozens of Lingshi buying a map of Ten Thousand Bone Grottoes from the grocery store, and flew out of the stone village like everyone else.
In the air, he spread out the map, and after taking a closer look, he narrowed his eyes and looked far around the basin.
At the top of the flying hills at the edge of the basin, there are vaguely black stone pillars of different heights, and in the basin, one or several blue stone platforms appear at intervals, with some primitive imprints on them. Netherweave.
Liu Ming looked at these stone pillars and platforms, and then at the map in his hand, suddenly his expression changed, and he pinched the tactics with one hand, and the gray cloud carried him to the height in an instant.
Three hundred feet, four hundred feet, six hundred feet, one thousand feet...
After flying to more than a thousand feet, Liu Ming looked down carefully, only to take a breath of cold air.
I saw that the entire small basin was a super magic circle with a radius of 10,000 acres, and the seemingly ordinary Shizhai was at the center of the whole circle.
It seems that this Ten Thousand Bone Cavern is as terrifying as the rumors, otherwise there would be no such astonishing seal formation by joining forces.
According to the information he checked, the Ten Thousand Bone Caverns were said to have emerged only after the eruption of the Qi of the Earth's lungs five or six thousand years ago.
It is said that there are countless people, beasts and other bones buried deep in the ground tens of thousands of years ago. As a result, under the filth of the earth lungs for a long time, they have survived one by one, and they have all been transformed into ghosts that resemble bone corpses. , But because these skeletons have existed for too long, not many of them can be acquired to produce spiritual intelligence, so they are collectively referred to as bone ghosts.
And the strength of these bone ghosts, because of the difference in the length of time to erode the lungs of the earth, the natural strength is also very different, from the pawn-level bone ghost that is quite a Qi refiner to the general-level ghost that can compete with the spiritual master.
Some people say that there is a real bone ghost king at the bottom of the Ten Thousand Bone Caverns, possessing the strength of the real ghost king, and even the predecessors who have the ability to hostile the crystal stage.
Of course, not many people believe the last statement. After all, if there is such a king of skull ghosts, the predecessors of the crystal transformation stage may have been out for a long time, so that such evil spirits can stay at the bottom of the Ten Thousand Bone Cavern.
Moreover, these bone ghosts did not know why they could not be stunned and surrendered by spiritism. After being beheaded, only the occasional spirit bones and a kind of foul aura crystal beads produced in the body had some value.
However, even so, in order to prevent too many ghosts in the cave from breaking through the seals placed by Zhuzong, Zhuzong could only send disciples into it over and over to kill a large number of bone ghosts.
But it's a pity that the lungs here seem to be endless, let alone how many bones are buried below. Even though many ghosts are killed every year, many new bone ghosts will be born at the same time.
In this way, all sects will send certain disciples to station here all year round, and they will not hesitate to pay a lot of rewards to attract other disciples to take the initiative to try this.
However, hundreds of years ago, the Barbarian Ghost Sect did not know what agreement it had reached with other sects, and even took over the task of dispatching garrison disciples all the year round. Of course, if the other sects sent scattered disciples here, they would naturally be equally unimpeded. .
Although the Ten Thousand Bone Caverns have existed for so long and there hasn't been much trouble, the dangers inside are absolutely genuine.
It is said that the entire Wangu Cave has nine floors, but now only the first five floors have been visited.
The bone ghosts generally appearing on the first, second and third floors of Wan Bone Cave are all pawn-level strengths, while the fourth and fifth floors are dominated by fierce-level bone ghosts, and even general-level bone ghosts occasionally appear. It is said that the world below the fifth level is the world of general-level bone ghosts, and even spiritual masters dare not break into it.
Therefore, the disciples of the spiritual apprentices who come here generally only sweep the first three floors. Those who dare to enter the fourth and fifth floors are either really talented and bold, or they are led by a spiritual master.
After Liu Ming watched from high in the sky for a while, he quickly thought about the relevant information before urging the ash cloud to fall downward, and after a while, he reached a hill on the edge of the basin.
On the stone wall more than ten feet away from him, there was a cave several feet high, and the entrance was shrouded in white light.
This is one of the entrances to the Wangu Caves. The same entrances are spread all over the basin, and it is said that there are nearly a hundred.
The white light at the entrance is exactly the powerful restriction that specifically restrains ghosts, but there is no obstacle for the disciples to get in and out.
Liu Ming strode towards the entrance of the cave without saying a word. After a while, a white light flashed, and his figure disappeared.
After entering the light curtain, it was a passage of more than ten feet long. Although the stone walls on both sides were smooth, the whole was not very flat, and it was obviously not created by manpower.
However, there was a faint white light on the stone wall, which actually illuminated the passage very brightly.
Under the curiosity of Liu Ming, he immediately walked to one side of the stone wall and took a closer look. With his arm raised, he snapped off a faintly shining spar from above.
These stones look like spirit stones, but in fact they are very turbid inside, and there is no way to sense the existence of vitality.
Liu Ming shook his head, and after throwing the spar in his hand, he slapped his waist leather bag with one hand. The black light rolled, and the bone scorpion appeared on the nearby ground in a green envelope.
"go with"
Liu Ming moved a little forward and gave a low voice.
In an instant, the bone scorpion jumped up and disappeared in a dark shadow in front of him.
Liu Ming then touched the copper ring on his wrist, and walked forward slowly.
After walking not far, a cave with a length of ten feet and a width appeared in front of him. There were three different passages, all of which vaguely lead to deeper underground.
Liu Ming chose one without hesitation, and entered it in a flash.
An hour later, Liu Ming didn't know how many caves and passages he passed, but he vaguely felt that he should be deep underground.
Even the luminous spar on both sides of the passage began to become scarce, making the surrounding environment look a little hazy, giving people a strange feeling of unconscious heartbeat speeding up.
Liu Ming made a turn, and when he had just turned around an intersection, suddenly something in the nearby mud jumped up and rushed straight to his face.
There was a muffled sound.
Liu Ming shook his body and avoided the opponent. After moving his arm again, he suddenly slammed against the shadow with a fist wrapped in yellow light.
The black shadow suddenly flew out, slammed on one side of the passage, and broke apart.
Liu Ming just stared at it. There was a beast bone ghost that was no more than half a foot long. Half of his body had been shattered by his punch just now, but the remaining part was inlaid with a flashing black bead in his skull. Under the urging, he had to stand up reluctantly.
There was a "swish".
A black thread pierced through the head of the small bone ghost in a flash, and after another blur, the remaining body of the bone ghost was also scattered and scattered.
Liu Ming only scratched it with one hand.
The small head of the bone ghost flew out of thin air and was grabbed by it.
The five fingers only used a little force, and a huge force came out, crushing the skull of the bone ghost, and the black ball inlaid in it immediately rolled out and landed in the palm of his hand.
Liu Ming looked at the round bead the size of a bean, and estimated that it could be replaced by one or two contribution points. Suddenly, the bone scorpion burst out from the ground nearby and stared up at the filthy gas bead in Liu Ming's hand. , Actually made a low whining sound.
"Do you want this thing?"
Liu Ming was a little surprised when he saw this situation, but after thinking about it, he threw the beads in his hand to the ghost.
The white bone scorpion jumped up, swallowed the black beads into the abdomen in midair, and then lay motionless on the ground.
Liu Ming looked at the ghost up and down for a while, but after not finding anything unusual, he shook his head and moved on.
…
Three days later.
"Boom" with a loud noise, the head of a human-shaped bone ghost splashed into fragments in the burst of a fireball, and at the same time a big black ball like a broad bean rolled out, Bai Sensen's headless body swayed. After a few shakes, what fell on the ground turned into a pile of loose bones.
With a "swish", a group of green shadows flashed past, and the black ball on the ground was gone.
Liu Ming looked at the white bone scorpion and raised his head. After making a "cuckling" sound in his mouth, Liu Ming couldn't help rolling his eyes.
This is the foul gas bead of a real pawn-level bone ghost, at least three or four contribution points can be exchanged outside, so that the bone scorpion can eat something, and the heart naturally hurts for a while.
This was also the first pawn-level human-shaped bone ghost he had encountered in the past few days, instead of the small bony ghosts such as bone rabbits and bone rats that he had encountered before.
However, since he discovered that the bone scorpion that had swallowed seven or eight filthy gas beads, the green qi on the surface seemed to be a little thicker than before, he actually no longer opposed the bone scorpion's act of grabbing the filthy gas beads.
As soon as the white bone scorpion finished eating the black round beads, it turned around and suddenly used the giant ao to pull out a small unusually crystal-clear small bone several inches long from the pile of residual bones.
Liu Ming's expression moved, and he immediately snatched the ossicles off, and after careful identification, he laughed to himself:
"Sure enough, it is a spirit bone, but unfortunately it only looks like ten years, but it can also be exchanged for more than a hundred spirit stones."
