A thing that seems to have great risks but also great potential. Once someone takes the initiative, even if they don't see any benefits, the adventurers behind will follow in droves. Life is undoubtedly precious, but in fact everyone has the courage to face death, it just depends on whether they are driven by a big enough desire.
Longevity is the ultimate dream of life. What’s the point of betting the next few decades on this dream
Liang Hongnong and Li Qizhi are both smart and cunning veterans. If it weren't for some special reasons, they would not be the first to eat crabs. Liang Hongnong has never had a holiday, so no matter how much ginseng, deer antler, and thousand-year-old Ganoderma he ate, it would be useless. So he placed his hope in the wisdom of ancient myths and legends. Those ancient gods who often lived hundreds of years may have left behind the secret of immortality. Li Qizhi, on the other hand, suffered from cancer. After trying all the most advanced medical technologies, he placed his last hope in theology.
They went down to the crypt regardless of the danger. Old Monster Liang speculated that the crypt of the shrine was the tomb of a certain ancient big shot. This old guy was of despicable character, but he was a scholar and scholar. No less than his contemporary Liu Changfeng. Li Muye originally believed in his judgment, but when he saw everything in front of him, he realized that Lao Liang was still too arrogant. After all, he was not a heavenly being, so he could not imagine the true arrangement of heavenly beings.
Deep in that portal, Li Muye saw a wonderful and spectacular small world.
Looking through the dense mist, he saw a towering volcano that was actively erupting. In the middle of a vast and bottomless ocean, there was a small island formed by the cooling of volcanic lava, scattered with countless bright crystals. The ejected matter emits light and heat, like a beacon that illuminates the entire small world.
On the shores of the vast ocean, there grow countless exotic flowers and plants, ancient trees and wolf forests that have never been seen before, and there are faint signs of life activity.
Li Muye suddenly thought of the scene he had seen in Bai Wuxia's Wanxiang Palace. It's just that the small world in front of me is countless times bigger than Bai Wuxia's artificial Xibei. Looking at the incredible scene in front of me, two words suddenly came to mind: balance!
This is a small space that operates according to the principles of yin and yang balance and the harmony of the five elements.
"Now it's developed." Liang Hongnong couldn't hide his excitement and murmured beside him: "Director Li, what do you think those crystals are?"
Li Muye said: "No matter what it is, it's worthless."
"That's right." Liang Hongnong realized what Li Muye meant, and he was disappointed and sighed: "Things are rare and valuable. If there are too many of these things, they are worthless."
Li Muye said rationally: "It shouldn't be something particularly valuable in the first place. It was just artificially filled with the concept of holiness and then became a myth." He added: "To say it is valuable, for people like you and me , there are too many valuable things in this place, and those mundane things are not worth mentioning, are you right?"
Liang Hongnong said: "That's the truth." He sighed with emotion: "Director Li is indeed smarter than the old man."
This flattery is neither sweet nor smelly. The old guy has been the ancestor of Zun for many years and has only listened to other people's flattery. When it was his turn to flatter him, the business was really not that good. Li Muye chuckled and asked, "Old Liang, have you seen a similar place before?"
Liang Hongnong shook his head and said: "I have never heard of it, I have never seen it before. It is truly a masterpiece of heaven and earth, with endless avenues."
"Let's go in and take a look." Li Muye said: "No one in the world can surpass you in this underground business. Lead the way and I will follow you."
On the surface, this sounded like a compliment, but in fact, it was a smile hidden behind a smile. He was worried about Old Monster Liang. Liang Hongnong knew he couldn't refuse, so he walked into the door first.
The exit is a cliff with a deep ravine below. Liang Hongnong climbed down the stone wall, while Li Muye raised his sword and watched from above. When he was about to climb to the bottom, he jumped directly.
A height of tens of meters, I would have never imagined that I could jump down in one fell swoop. But since returning from the dungeon and incorporating liquid nanoalloy into his blood, Li Muye's physical strength has also been greatly improved. In order to adapt to the heavy and high-density blood, not only the internal organs, including the heart, but also the skeletal fascia of the whole body have evolved to become stronger under high pressure. This is a process from quantitative change to qualitative change. Until it is completely converted into the Force.
At the Four-Corner Stone Pagoda, Li Muye realized the original power of Shinto from the physical relics of monk Xinzhao. The power of his mind was first transformed into the original power of spiritual thought, thus officially opening the door to the realm of Shinto. Physical training has also progressed rapidly. Standing at the exit and looking down, I didn't think there was anything scary about the tens of meters of abyss. The feeling of confidence filling my chest was so clear and wonderful, and I seemed to be able to imagine every detail of jumping down in my mind.
The wind in my ears, the rapidly expanding image under my feet, the moment my feet landed, a huge shock force was introduced from the toes, and the energy and blood in my body instantly exploded with huge power. The whole person consciously jumped up, knees slightly bent, and the body He jumped forward and turned somersaults. When he landed on the ground, the huge force had been absorbed by the muscles and blood of his entire body.
Liang Hongnong looked at it in surprise and praised: "The ancient Flying Immortal Swordsman was probably nothing more than this."
Li Muye said: "It's just a technique, don't flatter me randomly."
Liang Hongnong said sternly: "What I just said was from the bottom of my heart, and it was by no means a random flattery. I visited the Penglai Crypt that day and saw a similar scene on a mural. Director Li's skills are definitely worthy of the four superpower swordsmen." A word."
Li Muye didn't want to discuss his strength with him, so he chuckled and said, "Let's go and look around first. For the time being, let's assume that this place is an ancient ghost house. Use your experience to find which place is most likely to be a tomb. The burial place of the master.”
The temperature here is slightly higher, and there is a faint smell of sulfur in the air, but it is not unbearable. Looking at the past, there are numerous plants and trees, and everything is luxuriant, and they are not the kind of lichen plants that like shade. Everything here seems unaffected by the lack of sunlight. Perhaps it is because the radiance emitted by the volcanic eruption plays a role in photosynthesis, or it may be due to the special environment of this place.
Liang Hongnong looked around, felt the smell in the air, and finally made a judgment, saying: "Director Li, please follow me this way."
Li Muye looked in the direction of his finger, but didn't find anything special. He didn't know what the bad old man had in mind, so he asked, "Why are you going this way?"
Liang Hongnong pointed to a blue mark on the ground and said: "There are blood stains here, which should be left by the humanoid monster just now."
The light in the passage was limited just now, so Li Muye did not clearly see the color of the blood flowing out of the humanoid monster. He expected that Old Monster Liang's eyesight must not be able to see it, so he asked: "How can you see that it was left by it?"
Old Monster Liang said: "I have been exploring underground caves for a long time, and I know a thing or two about some strange creatures. Back then, my senior brother and I were exploring underground caves in the Thunder Valley of the Tianshan Mountains in Western Xinjiang, and we encountered a blue-blooded alien beast that was half human and half bear. His neck was strangled by senior brother's fishing line, and the blood that flowed out was blue. The appearance is somewhat similar to this monster, and it seems to have some origin."
"Why didn't you tell me before?"
"It's not that I deliberately concealed it, but I was in a panic at the time and couldn't remember it for a moment." Liang Hongnong explained: "And the strange beast we encountered back then was just a single one. After the senior brother killed it, he roasted it and ate it, so we knew it was a warm-blooded beast. , can’t live for many years, and at the time I thought this strange thing had been in the tomb passage for who knows how many years, but I didn’t expect that there is such a large area for living creatures to thrive here.”
"When you see this, you begin to suspect that that thing is not a zombie mummy?"
"I have explored countless underground caves in my life, and I have seen a lot of zombies. That thing does not move in this way, and I have never seen such a huge one." Liang Hongnong said: "At that time, it was indeed captured by Barton. After all, I have become a frightened bird, so I can't say anything in a panic."
"Okay, don't talk nonsense, let's go on."
Old Monster Liang was in front, and the two of them followed the humanoid monster's blood trail through the dense forest. Less than two miles away, they could already hear the sound of the rushing tide. The vegetation in front of us became sparser and the visibility greatly increased. Li Muye suddenly heard a slight movement in front of him. It was definitely not the sound of grass and trees brushing against each other. Realizing that there was something wrong, he quickly signaled Old Monster Liang to stop. She signaled him to stay where he was, while he quietly moved forward with his sword in hand to find out.
After walking less than fifty meters, an open landscape suddenly appeared in front of me. There were many large-leaf plants growing densely on the flat land. They looked a bit like lettuce, but they were much taller, green and very pleasing to the eye. It actually seems to be artificially grown. But in such a ghost place, where did the people come from to plant such a thing? Brother Ono continued to approach quietly with doubts in mind.
The sound came from these big-leaf plants. Li Muye continued to move forward following the sound. When he almost reached the edge of the big-leaf plant, suddenly a human-shaped monster jumped out from under the plant in front of him, making a strange cry from his mouth, and faced it. Running in your own direction. Li Muye was a very brave man. He first thought that the monster was hiding here, but after careful identification, he found that it was not the humanoid monster before. There are two more lumps of fat on the chest of this thing, and the donkey-like thing is missing below.
Just when I was surprised, I heard a buzzing sound, like the roar of a fighter plane, and something suddenly flew up from the large-leaf plants in front of me. It was as big as a dog, covered in black armor, fluttering its wings and making a loud sound. Loud noise. The two huge claws at the front flashed with cold light, and the slanting spines rushed out and flew towards the female monster.
Brother Xiaoye was secretly shocked. This black-armored monster actually looked like a common insect in the surface world, but its size was enlarged not many times. When it flapped its wings and flew towards the female monster, it looked like a predator. The female monster obviously knew how powerful this thing was, and was so frightened that she suddenly turned and ran in the other direction. The black beetle was in hot pursuit. The flying speed of this thing was obviously faster than that of the female monster, and it soon caught up from behind.
The gleaming pincers had already reached the back of the monster's neck. The pincers of this crustacean creature almost always have strange powers that are incompatible with their size. As long as they are clamped on this thing, the result will definitely not be optimistic. Just when Li Muye thought that the female monster in front of him was going to die, suddenly a large net woven with vines fell from the sky, just covering the black beetle. At the same time, three males similar to the humanoid monster they encountered before joined forces to kill came out, holding the big net tightly.
The female monster suddenly stopped, turned around, and with a proud look on her face, she calmly picked up a huge boulder and smashed it on the black beetle's head.
With a snap, the black beetle was smashed by the boulder with her strange power, and its flesh and blood flew everywhere. Blue blood and white flesh splashed on the black carapace, which was very shocking.
Li Muye shrank his neck in shock. Damn it, this thing can actually set traps for hunting. Seeing the female monster directing the three male monsters to lift the black beetle away and giving orders, it is obvious that this is an organized and divided hunting group headed by the female monster. It is estimated that this humanoid monster is still in the matriarchal society stage. . The strange power of this thing itself is terrifying enough. Coupled with its clever brain, it can be called a prehistoric creature that defies the heavens.
Just as he was about to retreat quietly, he called Liang Hongnong back to a safe area to make plans. Before he could turn around, he heard Liang Hongnong's undisguised footsteps behind him. When he looked back, he saw the weird and huge body of Old Monster Liang. He was walking backwards towards him. In front of the old monster, a tall, fit, plump-breasted female monster was holding a huge stone ax that was simple in shape but absolutely gorgeous when chopping people. She was staring at him with watery eyes... . ... (End of chapter)
