Chapter 46: Stepping into the Door
There is no doubt that what is buried at the foot of Mount Modes is not the relics left by the predecessors of the Glorious Age, but the seal that suppressed the archdemon who came to invade the world of Mycrove at that time, or the minions of the evil god.
Starting from the Ural Mountains to the end of the Daze Sea, the entire northern land is the battlefield where the gods fought against the enemies of the other world, whether it is the sealed place guarded by the Radcliffe family, or the deep underground of the Great Ajax Volcano, the teleportation array leading to the world of Irgena, all prove this, the time and space of the northern land are so weak that the magic fluctuations before the arrival of the great demon tide are obviously incomparable, and they are not covered, if there is a place to seal other chaos or chaotic creations, Joshua certainly believed it.
So, he didn't say much, but took Hotaru, Rin, and Verdani with him, and hurried to the ruins in the Modes Mountains at several times the speed of sound.
The Shenji siblings had long been accustomed to their master's resolute temperament, but Verdani was a little uncomfortable, she was obviously uncomfortable in the wind, but anyway, now they had come to the ruins in the mountains.
Standing in the middle of the huge mass of Mount Modeus, Joshua looked around, and he saw many traces of artificial carving, although a thousand years or more had passed, but these traces were extremely clear, as if they had just been carved yesterday.
What kind of resolute character is a warrior? Without any hesitation or emotion, Joshua walked straight down the narrow mountainside path towards the depths, his speed neither fast nor slow, maintaining a steady and alert speed, as if he could burst out at any moment to meet the unknowable enemy with all his might. The deeper he went, the more obvious the traces of artificiality became, and on the smooth marble walls, carved with various lifelike reliefs, depicting a strong man fighting with endless tentacles from the depths of the void, cutting off parts of his body and sealing it between the mountains.
Through dark vision, Joshua could clearly see every detail of the reliefs, and he could even see from the notches of the reliefs how the craftsmen who carved them were with a heavy heart and strength to carve these delicate works of art.
The purple-haired female mage and the Shenji siblings followed Joshua all the way to the depths of the mountain, at this time they were already hundreds of meters deep from the surface, this was no longer the belly of the mountain, but the underground, but the passage was still narrow and winding, as if there was no end.
A few minutes later, they finally came to a large door.
The door seemed to be carved out of obsidian, heavy and glowing with magical patterns that unleashed a power from before immemorials—but it had been opened, revealing the ruins behind it, forged entirely of steel.
"This is the remnants of Mount Modeus...... Seals? ”
Verdani couldn't help but sigh with emotion, as a mage at the peak of gold, she could naturally see all kinds of terrifying magic patterns engraved on this obsidian door, if it weren't for the people who came here to break it with the purest brute force and the price of injury, then the purple-haired female mage would have to waste at least a few hours here to crack the power of the magic patterns sealed on it.
"That's right, this is the ruins."
Nodding slightly, Joshua looked very determined, he turned his head and scanned the surroundings, the powerful life energy radiation spread, and a lot of information was discovered in an instant: "This sealed place buried deep in the ground is made of steel, forming a circle shape, with many ancient runes on it, which has great lethality to demons and the power of chaos. ”
As he spoke, Joshua stepped neatly across the gate and into the ruins.
He didn't have anything to worry about, Joshua had the Azure Orb and the power of order, and his strength was also pure and incomparably fighting and vitality, and the runic power against monsters and evil creatures in the ruins was not harmful to the warrior, and even could only make him comprehend the essence of it and increase his strength.
The door that had been opened naturally could not stop the warriors and their party, and after entering the gate, there was a long and narrow corridor, and at the end of the corridor, it was an extremely wide hall.
In the corridor, there were the corpses of several Plague cultists, naked and covered with traces of blasphemy spiders, and many professionals from other forces also died here, their bodies cut by streams of pure energy, and turned into slices of meat thinner than sashimi.
"Be careful, Joshua, there's a trap here!"
Seeing this, Verdani was immediately shocked, she knew those eight major force professionals who died here, most of them were in the silver realm, but there was a gold-level powerhouse who also died here, and there was no trace of thinking about resistance, which meant that the trap defense in the ruins was beyond everyone's imagination, and it was even enough to kill the gold and hit the extreme intent hard.
But Joshua was busy ensuring the integrity of the seal in the mountains of Modex Mountain at this time, so he didn't care about these things at all, he didn't bother to talk nonsense, and just stretched out one hand.
"Broken!"
With a low shout, the life energy that was strong enough to sweep the mountains was condensed into a scorching crimson ray, gushing forward, the pure and incomparable vitality condensed, and in an instant, all the magic and elements in the circle were dispersed, and the high temperature scorched the area around the obsidian stone wall, completely destroying the trap containing the trap formation.
"These are Shaping Spell Traps."
It was only at this time that Joshua began to explain, he pointed to the pit that had already turned into a piece of falling magma, and said in a natural tone: "If you step into it, it is equivalent to withstanding the attack of multiple gold, or even extremely strong people, the remnants of the cult and Brandon and others have seen through the law of rune movement, and only then have they penetrated deep into the bottom of the mountain intact. ”
The warrior blew again, and a bitter hurricane blew by, instantly condensing the magma into a smooth stone path. Joshua's face did not change and walked forward along the stone path, while Verdani, who was following behind, glanced at Hotaru and Rin, shook her head, and then quickly followed.
And then, in the main hall, there were also many corpses thrown behind, and the flesh and blood of these corpses had melted, leaving only pale white bones, and it was impossible to confirm whether they were cultists or members of the eight major forces.
Seeing this, Joshua's eyes flashed, he shook his head, and then released an incomparably strong heat up and down his body, enough to melt ice and snow steel, and the warrior controlled this life energy like solar radiation, surging towards the four directions of the main hall, and suddenly, four completely different rune arrays appeared on all sides of the hall, in which there were extremely powerful life fluctuations, and they even turned into thunder and lightning, accumulating incredible power, and slashing towards Joshua like a stormy wave.
"There is a trap about vitality here, laid by the extremely strong, which can directly dissolve all existences that do not meet the vitality standards and turn them into pure life essence."
Seeing this, the warrior opened his mouth to explain, his tone was calm, as if the lightning in front of him was not a big deal: "This kind of trap needs to master its boom and bust period, just as the heart will also have contraction and stirring, the energy peak of the trap is also different, these dead people are unlucky, caught up with the peak time, so they are completely dissolved into pieces of scattered bones." ”
"If you want to crack this trap, you need to invade it with your own life force and stop them one by one, so that you can safely go further."
While speaking, Joshua raised his fist, he simply punched out, and the majestic vitality turned into four parts, and galloped towards the rune array around the wall, the lightning melted along the way, and everything fell silent, and the originally powerful array suddenly flashed a colorful arc after receiving a heavy punch from Joshua, and even the sound of crackling electricity staggered, and after an instant, the four major formations disappeared, as if they had completely disappeared.
"Of course, I don't need to go through such trouble."
Another blow neatly dismantled the trap, and Joshua continued to stride forward, walking deeper into the ruins, leaving Verdani and the Shenji siblings in place, dumbfounded.
"Another punch ......"
The purple-haired female mage looked a little in a trance, although she had long known the strength of the warrior, but she never thought that Joshua would be so powerful, you must know that the opening of every ancient ruin is extremely dangerous, and the calamity is in a hurry, even if the explorer master has explored the barren mountains and mountains all his life, he may not be able to solve the traps along the way so easily.
But Joshua used his strength to break through the skill, and used his pure and powerful vitality to solve all kinds of dangers, which was simply unreasonable, if he let the strong man who had set up the sealing trap in the past know, he would probably vomit a mouthful of blood.
Since then, Joshua has traveled all the way to the deepest part of the ruins, and all the traps along the way are vulnerable in his hands, so that many of the eight powerhouses who dare not break through the traps and can only stay in the middle are shocked, and in their eyes, the mysterious and incomparably subtle ancient runes have been erased by the warriors with the most brutal means, leaving no trace.
Of course, many of them beat their chests and feet, secretly complaining in their hearts about Joshua's recklessness, if they carefully studied the operation of the energy circuit in the ruins, they would definitely be able to explore the strength and part of the power of the powerhouse who arranged this seal in the past, but now, everything has turned into dripping lava, and there is no trace of the past.
But even so, no one dared to accuse Joshua, and everyone understood that if they were not warriors, most people would only stay in front of the trap and think in vain about further steps, and not that they would be able to know a part of the truth about this world.
As Joshua continued to advance, the crowd behind him grew larger and larger, until finally, they came to the second obsidian door.
The second obsidian door, with traces of being opened, was determined by accurate footprints and breath discrimination, and the warrior was able to determine that the person who entered the obsidian door was Brandon.
And the other familiar and unfamiliar aura was naturally another priest of the Plague Cult.
The two of them fought all the way, encountering all kinds of powerful and insidious traps, fighting each other, and entering the Black Shine Stone Gate almost at the same time.
"This cult priest is not weak."
Joshua couldn't help but be a little surprised, he clearly knew Brandon's strength, the blonde swordsman could advance at any time, his strength had already exceeded the boundary of gold, and came to a further realm, but he didn't take it completely, all the traps along the way, Joshua could break it with his strength, and Brandon could do it, but he couldn't do it so beautifully.
It is really unusual that this unknown cult priest can hold on to Brandon for so long.
And just as the warrior sighed, suddenly, the entire Modes Hill ruins suddenly trembled.
Cracks were evident in the solid stone walls, and the stones were mixed with gravel and brushed down from the cracks, and the violent earthquake caused the mountain to topple, as if it were about to bury everything deep underground.
The source of the tremor was undoubtedly behind the obsidian gate, from which the terrifying tremors were vented, and Joshua, with his own strength and realm, could predict that something extremely dangerous and powerful was awakening after it.
So, the warrior took a step forward and completely ripped the obsidian door out of the jamb.
The next step is to step inside the door.
