Chapter 39: The hidden chain

Views:

The bright oil on the long arrow gradually burned out and turned into a little bit of ashes, the light gradually disappeared, and the bones of the thousands of fogbirds above the head were once again hidden in the darkness. However, looking at the deep darkness at this moment, I only feel an invisible pressure covering it, making people's breathing sluggish.

"The old nest is not counted." Bailishu put away his long bow and stepped up the stone steps, "The place where the bones are buried or the place where the rest is buried, choose one of the two."

"Whether it's a place of burial or a place of sleep, it doesn't sound good. The former probably wants us to be buried, but the latter wants us to be a morning bell to wake them up?" Ye Qiusheng said , walked a little distance to make way for Bailishu, and the two walked up the narrow plank road on the cliff together.

Go ahead to dangers.

Those who are daring or outlaws are those kind of people. However, Ye Qiusheng looked at Baili Shu with a cold expression, but he couldn't connect this person with the word "desperado".

The fissures in the ground veins gradually close from bottom to top, so the plank road slopes more and more as it goes up. It hovered on the cliff in a spiral shape, and as Ye Qiusheng and Baili Shu advanced, chains nailed deep into the rock gradually appeared on the cliff next to the plank road. Just as Ye Qiusheng said, there is "Taiyilu" written with blood essence on the black iron lock. After such a long time, the handwriting showed a dark red like rust.

From the investigation of this route, at least one section of "Taiyilu" was written on each piece of black iron. "Taiyilu" is divided into three parts, ninety-nine volumes, and each volume has nine sections. That is to say, Kong An wrote "Taiyilu" more than ten times, no wonder he would die in the end due to lack of essence and blood.

Ye Qiusheng and Bailishu walked up all the way, not slow, and soon gradually approached the iron chain hanging the skeleton of the foggy bird.

"Heaven and Earth and Xuanhuang, Jiazi Feng Yi..."

Ye Qiusheng read out the opening two sentences of the last chapter of the last volume of "Taiyilu" in a low voice. He and Bailishu both stopped at this moment and stood on the plank road. The mist of prey was already faintly visible. Starting from the back of the black iron lock closest to them, the remaining black iron chains were heavily hung with the skeletons of misty birds of prey.

Looking at this kind of creature that lived in the Ten Thousand Immortals at a close distance, it makes people feel that it is extremely terrifying.

Further up is the bone forest of fog and birds of prey, and at this time the plank road has come to an end.

Bailishu took out several fire pockets, flicked his wrist, and the fire pockets flew up into the air lightly. When he got close to the chain, there was a huff, and the fire pockets ignited. Following Huo Zhezi's light, Ye Qiusheng and Baili Shu saw clearly the chain with the mist bird hanging on it—although it was also a black iron lock, there were no scriptures written with blood essence on the chain. Instead, it was a knife. Ancient text engraved on it.

It is very possible that the slumber of the mist bird of prey is because of those ancient writings.

The torch burned out quickly.

"The wall of the temple." Baili Shu said softly.

Ye Qiusheng nodded.

The ancient text engraved on the black iron chain above is exactly the same as the text on the wall of Lingxing Temple.

The fog bird of prey disappeared in the Era of Ten Thousand Immortals, and the ancient characters on those black iron chains certainly could not have been engraved by Kong An. That is to say, after Kong An came to the ground, he discovered the remains of the Wanxianji that sealed the fog bird on the top. He observed those writings, realized some of them, and used the writings in his temple.

Baili Shu glanced at Ye Qiusheng.

The ancient characters on the walls of the temple were definitely not written by Kong An himself, so... who wrote those characters on the walls of Kong An's temple? Taishangzong? That's not necessarily true.

Bailishu's thoughts raced, he lowered his eyes, and did not say this to Ye Qiusheng.

The black iron chains here are obviously not from the same batch, and the ones with the skeletons of fog birds hanging on the top are left over from the Ten Thousand Immortals Period. The rest was nailed by Kong An. Ye Qiusheng guessed that the reason why Kong An used this method to seal "it" was probably to imitate the method of sealing the fog at the top.

But since the plank road was cut off here, their original plan to find the island along the plank road failed. The ladder stone stack, the stone stack is a dead end, so the only thing left for them is the "sky ladder" - if they want to go to the isolated island, they can only pass through these huge black iron chains that traverse the sky.

Ye Qiusheng raised his hand and tentatively injected a trace of true energy into the black iron chain. Just as the true energy was injected, the handwriting of "Tai Yi Lu" written with blood essence on the chain suddenly lit up, as bright as fire. Ye Qiusheng snorted, was shocked by the power contained in the black iron chain, took a step back, and bumped into Bailishu.

Seemingly defenseless, Baili Shu was slightly shaken by him.

Ye Qiusheng stood firm, looked at the black iron lock, and shook his head slightly: "It seems that I can't use my true energy on this black iron chain, but... since we are going to go through this thing, let's go Which one is not going, we'd better change it."

As he spoke, Ye Qiusheng pointed to the top of his head, meaning that there was no need to walk so close to the chains that were so close to those ghosts above his head.

Bailishu ignored Ye Qiusheng. He stepped forward and looked down at the chains that seemed to crisscross in an irregular manner: "The first three chapters of "Taiyilu" focus on robbery, the middle three chapters focus on crossing, and the last three chapters focus on mystery. The dark river cannot be crossed, and the passage should be in the mysterious number. Taiyi, the Tao, is invisible, mysterious and unspeakable."

Baili Shu raised his head.

"Let's go, there is still a hidden chain."

………………………………………………………

Jun Wanbai and Li Xin were walking in the dark passage.

The three volumes of "Taiyilu" in ninety-nine volumes have gradually come to an end. Except for the first section of this secret passage, the rest of it has been sloping downwards, as if to go straight to the underground ghost. But along the way, there was no trace of Ye Qiusheng or Bailishu.

Jun Wanbai frowned, vaguely feeling something was wrong.

At this point, it was almost certain that Ye Qiusheng should have entered the hole on the right. So why did Bailishu deliberately guide them the wrong way

What the hell is that bastard who doesn't discuss things with others thinking.

"Li Banmaid, do you feel that something is wrong?"

The secret passage was about to come to an end, and a closed stone door was faintly visible in the vision of the two. Jun Wanbai stopped suddenly. She held the sword and looked around slowly and carefully. Just now, she seemed to hear the sound of water, but there was no water along the way. Jun Wanbai didn't think she was hallucinating, she turned around and glanced over the bluestone wall.

After thinking about it, she approached the bluestone on the right side of the dark passage and pressed her hand on it.

As soon as he pressed his hand, Jun Wanbai's face changed slightly - the bluestone under his hand was vibrating.

She was about to call Li Xin to stop, but the next moment she realized that there was no need to remind Li Xin at all. Just as Jun Wanbai put his hand on it, a low, muffled thunder sounded in the ears of the two, as if coming from the ground, and the whole tunnel vibrated visibly with the naked eye.

Dilong turning over

Jun Wanbai's face changed, and he immediately thought of this possibility.

The shock came suddenly and disappeared quickly, but the impact was not small, and cracks appeared on the bluestone slabs on both sides of the stone path. Jun Wanbai withdrew her hand, this time she could hear clearly, the voice came from the right side of the secret passage - Baili Shuye Qiusheng and the others should be in the secret passage on the right.

Intuition told Jun Wanbai that the shock had something to do with Baili.

Since Bailishu himself entered the secret passage on the right, why did he let them come to the secret passage on the left? What does that person want them to do

"Instead of staring at the stone in a daze over there, I think you'd better hold your sword and come over."

Li Xin turned his back to Jun Wanbai and said slowly towards Shimen, he clenched his swords tightly and took a few steps back.

"And... don't think about why we are asked to go to the left, that guy has found us a difficult job."

In front of Li Xin, the originally closed stone door at the end of the dark passage was shaken open a gap by the violent vibration just now. The black aura spread out from the crack of the door like a snake, with an indescribable sense of evil. The solidified black aura would suddenly retract when it hit the scripture stone on the wall—it seems that the secret passage The "Taiyilu" on both sides is to suppress things behind the stone gate.

only…

Just now, the violent vibration caused cracks in the bluestones on both sides of the dark passage, and there were loopholes in the scripture town inscriptions that were originally integrated.

"magic."

Jun Wanbai walked over with two swords in hand, and frowned when she saw the black air.

No wonder Li Xin said that Bailishu found them a difficult job.

Cultivating immortals, if there are immortals, there will be demons, and there will be both immortals and demons. After the Wanxianji, the ninety-nine great demons disappeared from the land of the Twelve Dynasties, and the remaining shrimp soldiers and crab generals have been in a state of being beaten by the world of cultivating immortals with all their strength. Just as the sect's missions often involved exorcising evil spirits, exorcising demons was something that sect disciples like them had to do by default. No matter which sect the disciples encounter, they will always remove things related to demons when they go out for a walk.

Now that Jun Wanbai and Li Xin have discovered the sealed demon, as disciples of Jiuxuan, it is what they should do either to eliminate the demon completely or to seal it again. However, the so-called extermination of demons by Zongmen disciples usually only solves the problems of immortal cultivators falling into demons due to weak will or tyrannical nature.

At this time, the one sealed behind the stone chamber should be a real monster.

No wonder Yanmen County has an entrance to the nether world at night. It turns out that there is such a thing underground. If the monster breaks free from the seal, the people of Yanmen on the top will definitely suffer.

This guy Bailishu... Did he know that the movement he made on the other side would shatter the seal here, so he sent them over to clean up the mess? You're really an asshole like always, Bailishu.

As Jun Wanbai thought about it, the long sword trembled, and the edge of the sword shone coldly.
