The sound of footsteps echoed in the empty space.
Pedal, pedal, pedal.
Walking on this spiral staircase, Dai Lin felt like he was trapped in some kind of infinite loop maze.
It seems like this staircase will never end.
Of course, this is impossible.
So, after more than half an hour had passed, General White Frost Castle, who had been walking down all the way, finally walked down the last step.
down to earth.
Coming here, he could feel it clearly.
The dark particles in space were so dense that they even formed an invisible energy tide that repeatedly washed over the ground.
Dai Lin had to reveal his star essence and wrap himself in silver glow to avoid being contaminated by the overly dense dark particles.
He walked through the deep passages.
The passage is neither long nor majestic, which does not match the identity of a dark emperor.
Moreover, no one has passed through here for who knows how long.
The ground was covered with thick dust, and light smoke rose as people walked past.
Dai Lin turned a corner, climbed up a dozen steps, and came to a big door.
This double-sided stone door has a dark black background and dark gold stripes, outlining an image that cannot be identified as male or female, but is full of holiness.
It reminded Daelin of the icon in the hall above.
Daelin tried to push the door.
The door, which looked quite heavy, was opened extremely easily. This was not only because Dai Lin was strong enough and had great power, but also because he was very powerful.
It also depends on the design of the door.
The door has a load-bearing device that disperses most of the weight, and the design of the slide rail allows Dai Lin to push it open easily without expending too much effort.
When the door was pushed open, balls of light lit up one after another, illuminating the hall in front of Dai Lin.
There are not many decorations in the hall which is hundreds of square meters.
Huge pillars support the dome of the hall. The light that illuminates the hall comes from the pillars and from the eye-like crystals on them.
Deep in the hall, in the middle there was a black stone platform with dark gold stripes inlaid, and on the platform stood a three-meter-long dark gold sarcophagus.
It was the first time that Dai Lin felt so nervous since he became a Heavenly Rank cultivator. He tightened the sword in his hand, gritted his teeth and stepped forward.
He walked up to the platform and came to the coffin.
The sarcophagus was not sealed, and one could clearly see that there was a man sleeping inside.
The man had an ordinary appearance and a short stature, a normal height of about 1.7 meters, which was not too outstanding.
But he was dressed in majestic, ornate, jeweled black armor.
His hands were clasped on his chest, and a black straight sword was placed flat on his body. There were strange symbols on the sword.
Even now, these symbols are still faintly flickering.
Black mist was surging in the sarcophagus. Dai Lin knew that it was not ordinary mist, nor was it black mist.
Rather, it is a qualitative change phenomenon caused by the dark particles becoming dense enough.
The sarcophagus was filled with terrifyingly dense dark particles, and this dark energy was almost everywhere in the sarcophagus.
They are constantly washing over the man in the sarcophagus and filling every corner of his body with energy.
Footsteps were heard one after another.
Then, Dai Lin heard the voice of another general, Don Kafen: "What is this place?"
Dai Lin turned around and saw Don Kafen and a dozen explorers walking into the hall. They did not immediately notice the platform and the sarcophagus. They all looked in different places, observing this hall that was difficult to take in at a glance.
Finally, all eyes fell on the platform and on the sarcophagus.
Tang Kafeng trembled slightly and exclaimed, "General Dai Lin, could it be that what's inside is..."
Dai Lin turned his head to look at the man in the sarcophagus and frowned, "I'm not sure."
Tang Kafeng was stunned for a moment, but when he walked onto the platform, he understood what Dai Lin said.
No matter how you look at it.
There is a human being in each sarcophagus, and he seems to have nothing to do with the Black King or the Emperor of the Dark Empire.
but... .
"Did you notice that this is the same person as the praying statue above?" Don Kavon pointed upwards in the hall.
Daelin knew he was referring to the statue of a human male half-kneeling on the ground praying to the holy icon in the hall above.
"I know."
Dai Lin nodded slightly: "That's why I said, I'm not sure if this man in front of me is the Black King we are looking for."
Tang Kafeng frowned and said, "Although he looks like a human, his body is filled with dark particles. I can't sense any light at all."
As the 'Heart of Elements', Don Kafen was very sensitive to energy. With just one look, he could sense what kind of energy was inside the man in the sarcophagus.
Dai Lin thought for a moment and said, "Let's withdraw first and wait for Mr. Lin to arrive."
"Okay." Tang Kafeng had no objection to his decision.
But at this moment, the door they came in through suddenly closed by itself.
There was a loud bang.
The door is tightly sealed.
The two generals exchanged glances, and then Dai Lin said in a deep voice: "Open the door quickly."
A Level 6 War God hurried forward, grabbed the door handle, and pulled it back with force.
The door that Dai Lin had opened easily just now was now unexpectedly heavy. No matter how hard the colonel tried, he could not open it even a little bit.
Don Kafen immediately stepped down from the platform and shouted, "Let me do it!"
He raised his hand and an elemental javelin appeared, but this javelin was completely different from the low-level 'Heart of Elements'.
It is orange in color, with a bright white patch in the middle, and there is electric current wrapped around the surface, making a crackling sound.
The general threw the strengthened elemental javelin, hitting the gate right in the process. Flames burst forth and electric snakes danced.
It caused a violent explosion, causing the entire hall to shake slightly.
However, after the explosion, only cracks appeared on the surface of the gate and some stone powder fell off.
Not to mention blowing the door open, there wasn't even a hole to be seen on the door.
"I'll do it." Dai Lin didn't believe it and stepped onto the platform with a big sword in hand.
But as he strode towards the stone gate, a woman pointed behind Dai Lin, her eyes filled with fear and her mouth slightly open, but she didn't say a word.
Dai Lin was startled, and turned around with Tang Kafeng to look at the platform.
On the high platform, in the sarcophagus, a figure sat up.
It was the ordinary man in the coffin just now.
The whole hall, the whole space.
At this moment, there was a slight tremor, and the two generals felt at the same time that a huge consciousness was awakening.
At this moment, a pair of eyes on the face of the man in the coffin slowly opened.
There was darkness in those eyes.
Like two black holes!
... ... ..
A corner of the palace, a courtyard somewhere.
Ye Yun from Dusk Castle huddled behind a statue, watching the thrilling battle taking place before his eyes, feeling both excited and scared.
"City Lord Tianyang, come on."
After hiding behind the statue, Ye Yun, who was weak in strength, could only wave flags and cheer from behind.
This level of fighting is not his
Able to intervene.
If he intervened reluctantly, not only would he fail to help the young city lord, but he would probably have to divert his attention from saving him.
Ye Yun is quite self-aware.
He knew that all he could do was to run far enough away so as not to distract the city lord.
Although he was not very strong in combat, he could see that the young city lord had amazing killing power.
Every time the sword was slashed out, the whole space was shaking slightly. If it fell on a Level 6 Ascender, I'm afraid that except for the Fortress, people of other ranks would be unable to withstand a single blow.
But the black man named "Azers" was surprisingly difficult to deal with. Even now, he has not been killed by the lord of Lieyang Castle.
As the party directly involved in the battle, Tianyang felt it more deeply than Ye Yun.
'Shadow Devourer' Azra's combat power is not particularly strong, at best it is similar to an ordinary heaven-level warrior like Qiong Wu.
However, Azeroth is very difficult to kill.
It is always in a liquid state, as if even the cage of its will has become liquid.
In addition, its abilities are numerous and strange.
Sometimes recreate scenes, sometimes recreate abilities, sometimes recreate certain objects.
Its interference ability is extremely strong, coupled with its survivability, so that even with the assistance of the Shadow Guard, Tianyang has not killed it yet.
"If we can make it unable to liquefy, we should be able to destroy it."
Tianyang's figure blurred and he dodged one of Azra's attacks.
He glanced in Ye Yun's direction and said helplessly: "In fact, if there were no bystanders, I could just pull Lan He over and give him a sermon."
"That would save a lot of trouble."
Shaking his head, Tianyang forced himself to get rid of this lazy thought.
"Well, make it so that it can't become liquid... How does liquid become solid... Temperature, lower the temperature, freeze it."
Tianyang quickly came up with an idea.
But the problem is that he is not the Heart of Elements and does not have the means to freeze things.
I did have an 'Ice Soul Sword' before, but I didn't bring it with me this time.
"etc... "
"In addition to the Ice Soul Sword, I have another ability derived from the relics."
"Black Frost Gun!"
"When I was experimenting with the essence of 'upgrade' before, I recorded it with the Eye of Replica. It should still be preserved."
Tianyang suddenly became clear.
At this time, 'Shadow Devourer' Azra looked at Tianyang, locked onto Tianyang, and let one illusory symbol after another emerge in his eyes.
This is its ability to recreate a former opponent.
That opponent can make the target stop thinking and turn him into a puppet.
Tianyang seemed to be affected, his eyes became dull and he stopped moving.
Azra's body immediately began to wriggle, turning into a flowing black mud, spreading across the ground and coming to Tianyang's feet.
It suddenly rose up and turned into a black mud wave, trying to drown Tianyang and gain the power of this tough opponent.
But at this moment, Ezra suddenly discovered that Tianyang's eyes had regained their lively look and there was a smile on the corners of his mouth.
The mud wave that Azra transformed into rushed forward and submerged Tianyang, but it did not feel like it was enveloping the entity.
That sun was just an afterimage.
The real sun appeared above it.
Moreover, Tianyang had a black frost spear in his hand!
This is one of the abilities of the item obtained from the 'Desperate Bridegroom' in the Netherworld Secret Realm that day!
The Black Frost gun was thrown down.
Hit Azeroth right in the middle.
The black mud quickly spread with frost, and in the blink of an eye, it solidified into a black ice sculpture.
Azeroth is no longer in liquid form!
