Xuanhuo altar.
Even though it is a wooden door, it still feels heavy in the hand. Under Gui Li's force, the heavy and thick door on the Xuanhuo Altar made a muffled "squeak", and slowly pushed it open.
Inside the door, a faint red light shines out, and the surrounding air seems to have risen a little bit, extremely hot.
Gui Li frowned, his forehead was slightly sweaty, he suddenly remembered what he heard just now, the old man named Shangguan had guarded this hot place for nearly a hundred years, I really don't know how he passed.
In the Xuanhuo Altar, it doesn't look bright, except for a sliver of red light shining from nowhere, it seems to be more gloomy, which doesn't match the scorching heat around. Gui Li stood at the door, pondered for a moment, and finally walked in.
With another "squeak", the wooden door closed gently.
Gui Li took a deep breath, calmed down, and began to look around. Just like what I guessed when I saw this altar outside, it really is a huge hall inside, with a space as high as five feet. It is made of rock, without any carvings and decorations, and is unpretentious, but under the background of this huge space, there is an indescribable grandeur, which makes people feel that only this kind of plainness is the real supreme of the building. realm.
Soon, Gui Li discovered that the red light emanating from the entire hall came from the center of the hall. The closer you get to the center of the hall, the brighter the surrounding area. From a distance, against the red light, it seems like a ball of hot flames is burning in the hall.
Gui Li stared at the group of "flames", the red light shone lightly, reflected in his eyes, and also shone on Xiao Hui lying on his shoulder.
The eyes of one person and one monkey seemed to be dyed red by something at the same time, and a red flame was burning faintly.
Xiao Hui's tail flicked slightly, seemed a little uneasy, and gave a low cry.
Gui Li took a step towards the "flame" in the center of the hall, and walked slowly towards the depth of the red light.
As he got closer to the "flame", the surrounding air became hotter. At this moment, it was almost like being next to the lava underground. In Gui Li's mind, for some reason, he suddenly recalled a long-forgotten past event - under the Fire Dragon Cave, the magma lake was hotter than now, the pair of fox demons who threw themselves into the lake...
This thought flashed by, and he stopped suddenly when he was less than a foot away from the center of the hall. Xiao Hui turned to look at the master.
I saw Gui Li frowned, his eyes had already withdrawn from the flame, and looked at the ground.
On the flat floor made of crimson stones, patterns appeared impressively.
Right under Ghost Li's feet, finger-thick nicks appeared on the stone, extending to both sides, but it looked crooked and not even. And one foot in front of Ghost Li, there are also the same finger-thick nicks, drawn like dragons and snakes on the hard red stone, forming a one-foot-sized pattern.
That is a god!
A deity that Ghost Li had never seen or heard of before.
Vigorous notches slowly extend on the ground, and traces of years of grinding can be seen everywhere at the corners, showing the long-term existence of these patterns, revealing a trace of desolation.
There is no hair on the top of the god's head, but there are slightly curved horns like sheep's horns. His face is similar to that of a human, except that under the pair of gloomy and empty eye holes, there are clearly sharp fangs in his mouth. The sculptor even carved a few tiny holes beside the fangs, like blood dripping, adding a bit of ferocity and ferocity.
The body of this deity is quite different from that of human beings. There are four arms on the strong torso like a tiger and leopard, holding a knife in one hand and a shield in the other; The human body seemed to be screaming at the sky; while the other hand was gently holding something, dripping with blood, it was actually a human heart.
The originally simple and desolate nick came here, and suddenly became angry and unrestrained. The strength, the deep hatred in his heart seemed to burst out all at once. Gui Li unexpectedly felt that madness so clearly and inconceivably, surging up in this notch.
The gentle nicks became intense in an instant, flying down from the torso, merging into one body in the lower body of this vicious god, turning into a blazing flame. The red light shone brightly, and there seemed to be a sinister smile on the corner of the god's mouth, as if it was about to break out of the resurrection!
Ghost Li took a deep, deep breath, almost subconsciously, he merged the sculptor and the person who built this altar into one in his mind. Unexpectedly, there are such great masters and geniuses in the world!
Carving a picture seems to take away all the good fortune in the world!
The notch was still extending on the ground, and Ghost Li involuntarily walked to the side, gradually discovering the second idol and the third idol, and finally, after circling around the red flame in the center, he had a total of Images of eight gods carved in seals on the ground were found. None of them are the same, but Gui Li is almost certain that the carvings on the ground are all fierce gods.
In these images, people are completely sacrificed to these gods, just like food. The entire hall was filled with terror at the moment, and it seemed that following the discovery of these images, some ominous creature roared in the dark.
And on the periphery of these images of ferocious gods, there is still a notch enveloping them all, but it is not a complete circle, sometimes it bends inwards, sometimes it rolls outwards, Ghost Li couldn't understand it for a while.
At this moment, he returned to the front of the first fierce god pattern. After taking a deep look at the fierce god, he raised his head, and the burning "flame" appeared in front of his eyes again.
Suddenly, there was a "hum" in his mind, as if something surged up, a longing, a bloody longing, so familiar came to his heart. Almost at the same time, the images of fierce gods around him suddenly seemed to come to life, faintly shaking in front of his eyes.
The Soul Eater hidden at hand gradually began to light up through the sleeves of his robe.
Ghost Li's breathing gradually became a little heavy, suddenly, he shook his head heavily, trying to calm himself down, and then slowly walked towards the flame in the center.
However, he forgot to look at the monkey Xiao Hui lying on his shoulder.
In that pair of monkey eyes, a golden light reappeared at this time, but behind the golden light, there was more red light, with the same crazy blood-eating color as Ghost Li's eyes, gradually brightening and dazzling, filling everyone's eyes. its eyes.
The distance of one zhang is not very far, and Gui Li quickly approached the red light source in the center of the hall.
At this moment, he has already discovered that the eight stone carvings of gods he saw just now are all surrounding this light source, and the heads of the gods are all facing here. At this time, the surrounding temperature was already extremely hot. If ordinary people were here, they might not even be able to breathe.
Gui Liqiang suppressed the wave after wave of blood-eating impulse in his heart, and looked at the light source through the red light.
A thing like a stone well, thin at the top and thick at the bottom, appeared in the center of the hall. It is three feet high and no more than two feet in diameter. It is made of the same kind of red rock as the stones on the ground.
But on the flat surface of the well, there is a crystal-clear white transparent strange stone, which looks like a circle, but when you look closely, you find that there are countless cuts on it, with different sizes and incomparable brilliance. Light flows over it.
And the red light continuously shot out from the well, after passing through this crystal-like strange stone, the light is refracted layer by layer, and it seems that there are traces of blood flowing in it. And these rays of light condensed into a mass of red light in the space three feet above the strange stone, it was the burning flame that Gui Li saw from afar just now, and the light source in the entire hall was also coming from here.
Looking at this mysterious and miraculous spectacle, Gui Li slowly approached the well, approached the bright and strange stone that looked transparent, and looked down.
A familiar scene entered his eyes. The hot magma roared below, like a raging ocean tide, constantly rising and falling, and the splashed magma hit the hard rock wall, making a slight noise.
This Profound Fire Altar was actually built on top of a crater that seemed about to erupt.
Gui Li was agitated for a while, he clenched his fists involuntarily, and even his breathing became heavy. Ever since I approached these fierce god stone carvings on the ground, it seems that these unheard and unseen images have triggered violence in my heart, or these gods are cruel evil gods at all. The bloodthirsty killing intent in his heart was getting stronger and stronger, but it was strange that his mind was able to remain sober, unlike usual, the whole person almost fell into madness.
It's just that although others are awake, the pain caused by the strong violence in their bodies is even more severe. If someone is standing nearby, they can see the red glow in Gui Li's eyes at this moment, almost like an evil ghost.
Just when Gui Li was supporting himself, Xiao Hui on his shoulder suddenly squeaked twice, jumped down, and fell straight onto the strange rock.
Ghost Li was taken aback, there was faint blood-colored red light flowing in this strange stone, even though he had practiced the Heavenly Book of the Demon Sect for many years, he felt that the evil power in it was very serious, he immediately stretched out his hand to intercept it, and urgently said: "Little Hui, be careful!"
But Xiao Hui jumped down suddenly after all, Gui Li was a bit late to react, and the catch was in vain. I saw Xiao Hui stretching his body in mid-air, only the red light in his eyes flashed like Ghost Li. It was too late to say it, and in a blink of an eye, Xiaohui had already landed on the strange rock, making a soft "bang".
In an instant, the red light from the volcanic well refracted through layers of strange stones was blocked by Xiao Hui, and almost at the same time, the red light in midair condensed into a red light cluster that was almost like a flame, because Lost the light source, suddenly disappeared.
Suddenly, the whole world seemed to quiet down.
In just a blink of an eye, the entire altar hall lost all light, and darkness enveloped the entire place.
Gui Li held his breath, staring blankly at Xiao Hui.
It lay on top of that strange rock, and seemed to be fine for the time being. The red light refracted in the well is blocked by it at this moment, reflected on its belly, showing every detail.
The red glow flowed like fresh blood, flickering slightly on its body. Xiao Hui's body slowly began to emit sounds, like the piercing sound of bones and joints being knocked.
Kaka, Kaka...
Gui Li took a step forward, staring at Xiao Hui, feeling a bad premonition faintly in his heart.
Xiao Hui turned his head slowly, its eyes had completely turned red, so dazzling in the dark!
The next moment, a sudden change occurred!
In the great hall, in the depths shrouded in darkness, suddenly there was a desolate whistling, mighty and mighty. The fiendish stone carvings on the ground around them emitted red light at the same time, and lit up one after another.
When the eighth fierce god stone carving also lit up, the desolate roar echoing in the hall had turned into a shriek, filling the entire space. I don't know when it started, but the wind began to rotate continuously above this dense and solid hall.
Ghost Li picked up Xiao Hui and stuck it beside him. Almost at the same time, there was a loud bang, and all the stone carvings radiated light. In an instant, the red light seemed to become a tangible thing, rising from the fierce stone carvings, while maintaining the original appearance of the stone carvings, turning into a red light. The plane formed by the condensed light rises into the air.
One after another, the fierce gods turned into red lights and condensed in the mid-air, and Gui Li finally saw the curved stone carvings surrounding the stone carvings of the fierce gods.
It was a huge flame totem, enveloping all the fierce gods in it, with the more and more violent wind, this strange circle of light slowly increased, and after a while, it was already higher than Ghost Li's head, and stopped at him and Xiao Hui. above.
Gui Li looked up, his hands were sweating unknowingly.
All the ferocious gods seemed to be resurrected at this moment, laughing up to the sky in the huge flame-like blood-red halo. At this moment, the darkness in the great hall has long been expelled, and all places are illuminated by this extremely dazzling circle of light.
The red circle of light began to rotate slowly, and the speed gradually increased, and even the wind speed on the main hall became more and more rapid. Ghost Li was in the center like a storm, the clothes on his body were rattling, and his face gradually turned pale.
It's just that he still didn't move.
The strange atmosphere in the air became more and more serious, and the rapid and sharp wind seemed to start to be mixed with mysterious and ferocious grinning, just like the legendary evil spirit of Jiuyou came to the world.
The red circle of light finally rose to the dome, turning faster and faster under the unpretentious stone slab, the red light rained down one after another, like the rain of blood floating in hell.
"boom!"
After spinning so quickly that it was almost dizzying, suddenly, the red circle of light stopped abruptly, without warning. The next moment, above the blood-red flame, the huge stone slab moved away as if summoned, and receded around the flame totem.
In the bloody red light, two groups of fiery eyes lit up.
"Roar… "
A deep roar came from the red light above, and the whole hall seemed to be trembling in an instant, and all the gods shouted together at this moment!
The huge body carried an incredible high temperature, and the whole body was like a burning flame, and a giant beast rushed down from above.
The pupils in Gui Li's eyes contracted in an instant, and with force under his feet, the soul-devouring blue light flourished, and he floated backwards, dodging this thunder-like pounce.
The giant beast surrounded by blazing flames roared angrily, and slowly turned its head, staring at Ghost Li.
For some reason, Gui Li suddenly felt his mouth dry.
Like those strange fierce stone carvings, he has never seen it before, and he has never seen this kind of flame beast recorded in the book. Its huge body is several feet high, its four legs are thick, and there are extremely sharp claws at the end. When it moves a little on the ground, it will leave deep scratches on the hard red rock.
On top of its huge head, there is a bloody mouth full of sharp teeth. It is almost impossible to see the eyes in a pair of big eyes, but two groups of burning flames. Moreover, on the surface of the huge body of this strange beast, there are blazing fires everywhere, as if the flames are part of its body. Before it got close, it was already unbearably sprayed by that scorching air.
And the huge flame totem formed by the red light in the midair seemed to be controlled by some inexplicable force and fell down at this moment. It stood upright behind the strange beast and slowly rotated. All the evil gods above it seemed to be the same as the flame beast, staring fiercely at the man and monkey who disturbed the gods.
Xiao Hui was held in Gui Li's arms, but his eyes were fixed on the strange beast, the red light in his eyes was not weak but full.
"Roar!"
The flame beast roared again, and rushed over again. Gui Li didn't escape this time, in fact, this strange beast was too big, there was not much room left in the originally spacious hall.
I saw Soul Eater floating in front of Ghost Li as if controlled by an invisible hand. Gui Li's face was gloomy, and he put Xiao Hui on his shoulder, and then swiped his hands in the air behind the Soul-devouring stick, a gossip pattern suddenly appeared on the blood-devouring bead in front of Soul-devouring, which instantly magnified, facing the flaming beast. go.
A moment later, the strange beast collided with the Eight Diagrams Talisman raised by Gui Li Ji in mid-air.
If someone from Qingyun Sect was here at this moment, they would definitely applaud loudly, this is the authentic Qingyun Sect's unworldly secret method "Tai Chi Xuan Qing Dao".
The power of the Taoist true method is naturally extraordinary. The seemingly powerful pounce of the flame beast was unexpectedly blocked by it, and its huge body also fell to the ground.
But almost at the same time, a powerful force bounced back, and Ghost Li's whole body was shaken. The power of this flame beast is several times stronger than that of ordinary cultivation masters.
Although the flaming beast was stopped, it was seen to be raised violently, with blazing flames in its eyes. It was clear that it had not suffered any damage, but it seemed to be even more angry, and rushed over with a loud roar. The huge flame totem behind it also slowly spun and followed.
Gui Li frowned tightly, and was about to make a move, when suddenly his shoulder lightened, the monkey Xiao Hui jumped up, left his body, and rushed towards the flaming beast.
Gui Li's shock was no small matter, he lost his voice and said: "Xiao Hui, don't..."
The flame beast suddenly saw something rushing towards it. It was taken aback, and with a low growl, its body that had just jumped up paused for a while, wanting to see this thing clearly before speaking.
Under the red light, a pair of monkeys with completely bright red eyes, Xiao Hui, jumped in the air.
When its body, which was almost insignificant compared to the flame beast, jumped to the highest point, it suddenly stopped in the air.
As if time stood still for an instant, while the monkey was stagnant in mid-air, the hall that was filled with the roar of the flame beast just now suddenly fell silent.
Caden!
A crisp voice slowly spread away. Among the countless red rays of light, a golden radiance rose up.
Xiao Hui's whole body was stretched out, his eyes were closed tightly, and a faint golden light was slowly emitting from his whole body, looking like a god or Buddha. Between its eyebrows and on its forehead, that dark trace suddenly started to squirm, and after a while, Xiao Hui suddenly raised his head, clasped his hands tightly, and screamed towards the sky.
Ghost Li, who was standing behind and was about to pounce on him, also stopped suddenly, staring blankly at Xiao Hui who was transforming in mid-air.
The dark mark between the eyebrows squirmed more and more intensely, and suddenly, Xiao Hui screamed again, accompanied by a sound that seemed to be tearing, a cry from somewhere, the dark mark split open, and a brilliant Golden light shines from it.
Third eye!
Three-eyed Monkey!
The legendary peerless beast, the spirit of all things, suddenly transformed out of this flaming hall!
