The melee was chaotic, but with Xiao Ting's participation, these magicians could not show their true strength. General Yan found that he had a helper on his side, and made a heavy hand to keep these people.
For a while, the entrance of the valley was vacated, and the Nine Princes followed him like a shadow, but when they got close, they found this altar was very strange.
There is no such thing as an entrance at all.
He casually pulled a soldier over to ask about the situation here, but he knew nothing about it.
"Then why are you here?"
"You, who are you?"
The soldier suddenly realized that the Ninth Prince was not from their side, nor were they spiritual masters.
The Ninth Prince saw that he also looked confused, and didn't kill him, so he slapped him on the neck with a palm.
He wandered around the altar for a long time, but he couldn't find any mechanism, so he immediately understood that this place was inaccessible right now.
With the knife in his hand, he rushed directly to Xiao Ting's side.
"Let's go first."
Xiao Ting was puzzled, and took the time to ask him, "What's the matter? Aren't you looking for the entrance?"
"It's too late, this place is already surrounded, someone set up a trap."
The Ninth Prince frowned, and Xiao Ting expected it.
The two of them came and went quickly, and disappeared in the distance after a while.
In the depths of that valley, the torches were lit like day.
Hundreds of people came to the front, divided into two rows, controlled the scene, and a heroic man came out from behind.
When General Yan saw this person, he quickly stepped forward and lifted up his clothes and knelt down.
"The last general pays homage to the king."
It was King Yan who came here in person.
"Get up, who are they?"
King Yan looked like a middle-aged man with sharp eyes and the majesty of a superior.
He glanced coldly at the spiritualist surrounded by the army.
There are dozens of people left, all of them are waiting in full battle, although they are surrounded, but there is no timid expression on their faces.
"Back to the king, they are not my spiritual masters from Yandi, they were brought back in a grand manner."
"What does he want to do? Has someone been caught?"
King Yan swept his eyes sharply, but he didn't find anyone he knew well.
General Yan snorted softly and pointed at one of them.
"My lord, the eldest prince is not here, but I will see this person in the palace of the eldest prince at the end."
"General Yan, if you make a false accusation, do you know how you will be punished?"
"The last general will never dare to lie to the king."
King Yan waved his hand.
"Take everyone down, keep them alive, and shoot anyone who doesn't obey."
In the dense forest not far away, Xiao Ting looked at the mighty man, squinted at the Ninth Prince, and said, "Prince Yan, what kind of relative are you?"
"uncle."
Ninth Prince returned her indifferently.
"Then you really don't want to see him?" Xiao Ting was puzzled, the Ninth Prince didn't seem to be familiar with Yandi's relatives.
"That's your own uncle, the elder brother of your mother and concubine."
"This king is not familiar with him." One sentence expressed his attitude.
"Then do you have any other relatives you want to see?"
This time the Ninth Prince did not answer her.
"You stay here, I will go to find out the purpose of their coming here."
The King of Yan went out in person, this place must be extraordinary.
Not long after, the Ninth Prince went back and looked at Xiao Ting solemnly, Xiao Ting asked him what was wrong.
As a result, the Nine Princes told him that this is the forbidden area of Yandi.
All the subjects of Yandi are not allowed to enter without permission. Only when the king of Yan and the high priest are present at the same time can the altar be opened and entered.
And every time there is a major sacrificial activity, and some people in the royal family will enter this place.
"So what's going on tonight?"
Xiao Ting was puzzled.
"King Yan wants to invade the forbidden area, but there is no sign of the high priest."
"Then can we fish in troubled waters and sneak in?"
Ninth Prince shook his head, "This is absolutely impossible."
The so-called forbidden area, ordinary people can't enter at all.
"Then this doesn't work, that doesn't work either, what are we doing here?"
Xiao Ting flicked her sleeves a little annoyed.
"Follow them." The Ninth Prince pointed to the dozens of spiritual masters who were arrested in front of him.
Xiao Ting was puzzled, blinked, and asked inexplicably.
"Can they enter the forbidden area?"
"good."
It was already late at night, although the surrounding torches were bright, but there were still dark places where they could not be found, and they quietly followed behind those spiritual masters.
When they were brought to the front, the bottom of the altar had completely sunk, revealing a wide step.
The underground fire was so bright that it was very bright.
Below is a larger altar surrounded by several fire barrels burning.
Brightly illuminate the entire open space.
Xiao Ting and the others were pressed and knelt aside.
King Yan and others walked there to worship.
Xiao Ting couldn't understand a word of what was said in her mouth.
She poked her side, and was also caught by the spiritualist, and asked in a low voice, "What are they talking about?"
The man looked at her like a fool, "You can't understand Yanyu, why did the Lord send you here?"
Xiao Ting blinked her big eyes and explained silently.
"I do not know either!"
She went to ask the man on the right again, but they ignored her at all.
So she had to chat with the person on the left who had just spoken.
"Can you understand what they are saying?"
"The King of Yan has decreed that we will be sacrificed alive later."
Nani, so miserable, fell into the wolf's den.
She couldn't understand other people's words at all, Xiao Ting was not chatting with this person, she looked around for the figure of the Ninth Prince, they came in together.
Soon, she failed to find the Ninth Prince, and they were escorted to the very center of the altar.
And behind them, each stood a soldier holding a steel knife.
"Do it." King Yan and the general said a lot, but only the last two words Xiao Ting understood.
Hearing this, the soldiers behind him pulled out their long swords at the same time.
I go, these guys play for real.
Xiao Ting naturally had to find a way to escape before the Ninth Prince came to rescue her.
She dodged the sword, rolled forward on the spot, and went directly to the side of the fire barrel, and kicked it over to the side of the altar on the mountain. There was chaos, and the flames shot up into the sky.
"Everyone run!"
She jumped up and down and shouted, and even the other spiritual masters also found the opportunity to escape, and they all fought back vigorously.
"There's a door there, we're going to escape there, the outside is full of their people, we can't get out."
Xiao Ting remembered that the Ninth Prince had just disappeared here.
When the remaining five magicians heard Xiao Ting's call, they rushed in without thinking.
"Your Majesty, what should we do?"
General Yan led people to guard the entrance of the cave, but he couldn't get in. The inside was the real forbidden area. Since ancient times, only the kings of Yan could enter.
"It's okay, it's not the descendants of my Yandi royal family, they will get nothing, they will just turn into a pile of dead bones."
King Yan finished speaking in a nonchalant manner, and then stared at the killed spiritualists on the altar.
"The sacrifice is complete, close the forbidden area!"
After a quarter of an hour, all the people here withdrew, the entrance of the cave was sealed again, and fell into a dead silence.
At this moment, Xiao Ting led five magicians into the depths of the cave.
Without torches, the passage became narrower and narrower, and only two people could walk in together.
The height is also slowly decreasing, giving people a sense of depression.
"Where does this lead to? Let's not go."
Some people questioned that they could not go any further with Xiao Ting, they wanted to go back.
Xiao Ting didn't intend to stop at all, she just turned her head and said, "Go if you want to go, King Yan didn't send anyone to chase them down, it means they have blocked the way back, if you don't believe you can go back and see."
Four of them were silent, obviously acquiescing to Xiao Ting's statement, but the other one was very angry.
Pointing at Xiao Ting, he said, "You are not a spiritualist who came with us at all, why should we trust you?"
Xiao Ting smiled.
"You're right, I didn't come with you, and I didn't make you believe me."
After saying this, she walked forward alone, and the five people behind all stopped.
I didn't know how far I went, water gradually seeped from the top of my head, and there was a puff of moisture lingering at the tip of my nose.
And this place is winding, she has already lost her way at this moment.
Can only move forward by groping.
Suddenly a gust of wind blew up ahead, and the cold breath rushed straight along with the humidity.
There is also a weird smell.
Xiao Ting passed quickly and walked side by side.
Appeared in a faint blue space.
This is a small stone chamber, and there is nothing inside, only dots of blue floating above.
Before she could see what it was, those blue ones rushed towards her like a man-eating demon.
"Resentful spirits?" Although there is no one alive here, Xiao Ting still saw their shapes clearly when those faint blue rays of light were close at hand, and yelled in surprise.
She retreated quickly, trying to avoid the passage she came in, but when she climbed back up, she found that the passage she came in was closed at some point.
She didn't dare to stay in one place at all, and quickly turned around the stone room, but she didn't find any exit.
While holding your curse seal in your hand, strike forward.
This is the spirit fixing technique that the master taught her.
It is a mark more powerful than those spells.
It is specifically aimed at wraiths, and can temporarily control their movements.
A wraith that was not in front of her stopped in mid-air at that time.
But before Xiao Ting breathed a sigh of relief, other spirits rushed towards her like crazy.
Even scarier than just now, there is no look of fear at all.
I go!
Crazy is this
Xiao Ting rolled and crawled, but she still couldn't dodge, and a wraith got into her heart.
Of course she wasn't afraid at all.
Just in an instant, the wraith reappeared in front of her.
Terrified like a bereaved dog, she fled upwards quickly. At the same time, the sharp cry broke through Xiao Ting's eardrums, making her temporarily deaf.
And the other wraiths seemed to have been summoned by some kind, and they all flew into the air.
Circling in circles there.
Xiao Ting held her head and fell directly to the ground.
That piercing voice hit the depths of her soul one after another, and the pain was beyond words.
It seemed to tear her soul apart and disperse her whole soul.
Completely disappeared from the world.
At the same time, she seemed to have lost control of the body.
His hands hang down weakly, and he can't even cover his ears.
