Chapter 20: Underground

After Zhang Yu entered the ruins of the city, he felt the spiritual power of the stars, which showed that there were either foreign spiritual beings hiding in the city, or there were things gathering spirituality in the city.

It's just that these powers are all from living creatures, so he doesn't plan to look at them too much, and flies directly towards the tallest and most ruined ruins in the city.

However, in the process of galloping, he also found that the buildings here are very distinctive, all of them are excavated from the original mountains and rocks, and there are many narrow caves leading to the bottom, so it seems that the buildings on the surface are only a part, and there should be a large space in the bottom interior.

Not only that, but the pattern of the city and the traces of life do not conform to the habits of human habitation, so he judged that the inhabitants here are most likely not human, but humanoid or non-human beings.

This is not surprising, after all, in the past few eras, there have been all kinds of strange things, and I don't know how many races and civilizations have died in the long river of time.

When he reached the highest point in the city, he landed on a stone hill and looked at it.

The only building in the city that was directly piled up at the foot of the city, judging from the remaining traces, there should have been a thick layer of mud and gold paint on the outside, but now it has been weathered and peeled off, and the grass and stones inside are exposed.

Upon observation, he discovered that it was most likely just a place to observe the stars, not a place of worship as previously believed, and that there were no similar buildings around.

This surprised him.

For the natives of this world, worshipping the gods is not a foolish act, but has practical significance, because without the protection of other gods, it is difficult to guard against the endless flow of spiritual creatures, and it is difficult to resist the invasion of other gods.

Unless the lord of the city is very special in his own right, he is either very confident in his own strength, or he has something else to rely on.

At this moment, a heavy spiritual power came, and a cloud of dust fell on the wall somewhere, and two tall and thin dried corpses moved inside, as if they were about to come out, but then the sword flashed, and the action suddenly stopped.

Zhang Yu stretched out his hand to grab the cicada sword that flew back, these two dried corpses were incompatible with this place, he guessed that it should not be the original inhabitants of the city, but the ancient corpses contaminated with spirituality in the wasteland and regarded this place as their lair.

At this time, he closed his eyes and meditated for a moment, and the cicada sword in his hand trembled slightly, and flew away again, flying into several deep and wide caves in the senses, and after about a moment, he flew back again.

Sure enough, as he had previously judged, there was a huge underground cavity beneath the ruins, and there were still a lot of traces of artificiality, many of which did not match the buildings on the ground.

He thought about it for a moment,

After the students of Kaiyang Academy arrived at the camp, they roughly needed to rest for two days, and only try to get out of the camp after they were familiar with the surrounding situation under the guidance of the teacher, so he had at least two days to go.

That should be enough for him to go down there for a round trip, and if it's still too late, then wait until next time to find another opportunity.

So he took the sword, rose into the air, and flew into a certain cave.

At the same time, another group of people also entered the ruins, but they seemed to have a clear goal, and they went directly down the ruined hole in a cavern.

Just a short walk in, they were blocked by a large boulder, and the whole team had to stop.

The woman in red stepped forward, her eyebrows flashed, and her body suddenly turned into a metal giant with a height of a few feet, her body was still slender, and the lines and proportions of her torso and limbs were very beautiful.

She charged her strength slightly, and with just a light punch in her hand, the big stone slammed into a shock, and after a while, it was evenly shattered into countless tiny gravel.

Lu Lao said: "Silan, your control over power is getting better and better. ”

The woman grabbed the palm of her hand, and she didn't feel any stagnation, except for the difference in visual height, and even as if she hadn't put on the outer armor, she said: "This set of armor is very suitable for me, but there are many things in it that I still need to be familiar with." ”

Lu Lao said: "There is 'pure white' to help you, this process will not take long, okay, let's go in first." ”

As the group walked inside, the cave that had begun to narrow began to become tall and spacious, and various reliefs appeared on the walls on both sides.

Lu Lao walked up and touched it, he said with a slightly high-pitched emotion: "It's the winged eagle and the reed bundle, that's right, this is it, this is the place where the ancient 'big moth' lived, and was later occupied by a group of refuge cave people, in the legend, as the family of the goddess of abundance, they were ordered to guard the ears of abundance on the day of the arrival of the gods, which is said to be part of the ring of the creation of the world." ”

The woman was surprised: "The legendary World Creation God Ring is here?"

Lu Lao shook his head and said: "How can it be so simple, the World Creation Divine Ring is not a simple item, people without supernormal strength can't see it at all, but people with more strength are likely to go crazy when they see it, and there is more than one cave people, who knows where they hide things? ”

He waved his hand and said, "Let's move on." ”

Just as they were marching underground, a purple-red smoke rolled from the sky and fell above the ruins of the city, and a Taoist figure appeared, and he put a pair of compasses in his hands, and found that the hanging needle pointed to a cave, and his face suddenly showed disgust, and said, "Stay there and let me find it, don't you have to drill around in the hole like a mouse." ”

He put away his things, flicked his robe, turned into a puff of purple smoke, and threw himself into the cave.

After Zhang Yu entered the underground, he did not stop in the face of the twists and turns, complex and changeable cave passages, his feet did not touch the ground, and he swept over directly, this is because the flying sword had already walked through it before, and every place was a proven situation.

However, although the purpose of his trip was to search for the existence of Shenyuan, he was also very interested in ancient things, so he sometimes paid more attention to the reliefs and statues that appeared in the cave from time to time.

At this moment, a magnificent stone door appeared in front of him, and in front of the door there were two guard sculptures, which were two stout, but short-looking humanoids, with smooth foreheads and large eyes, which grew on the left and right sides.

It's just that a statue fell to the ground, as if it had been knocked down by some passing underground creature.

At this moment, he paused slightly, waved his sleeves, rolled up the statue that had fallen to the ground, and put it back there, and then continued to go inside.

After passing through this door, he came to the largest underground cavern he had ever explored, and a row of wide stone steps descended in front of him.

Directly across the space, he finally saw a building that resembled an altar, with a huge statue behind it, but unfortunately, half of it was broken, and even half of the head remained.

He stared at it for a moment, the statue should be a woman, and according to past experience, even if such a statue originally existed with source energy, it would have long since dissipated.

He stepped a little, his body had already floated through the wide space, and he came to stand on the altar, and as soon as his eyes fell, he saw a flat stone tablet erected in the most conspicuous place, on which was engraved a row of twisted words.

He had never seen it before, but he could inexplicably translate it, to the effect that "the fullest harvest of the year is dedicated to the great goddess of abundance."

He thought about it for a moment, he could understand that this was undoubtedly the memory of the tranquility at work, and if so, then this so-called goddess of abundance was probably also an ancient god.

Just as he was turning his mind, he suddenly felt a vibration of spiritual power, and it was also mixed with the sound of fierce fighting,

He sensed it slightly, and his powerful supernatural senses made him immediately distinguish that this was from Fang Cai Lu Lao's group.

In this underground, where there was no outside interference, he could feel the various movements of these people at the moment, and he could even distinguish the approximate attack pattern of the person fighting them.

His figure flashed, and then vanished from the spot.

Somewhere in the cave, the Dao man looked at the crimson metal giant facing him in front of him, and his face was unhappy, "It's actually a armor soldier, this world, it's so troublesome to get a mortal, it seems that it will take a lot more effort." ”

The woman on the opposite side, known as Si Lan, was extremely nervous at the moment, and a figure like a white mist appeared beside her, and said to her: "This is a powerful monk, under the premise that he has no magic weapons, the probability of winning a battle between you and him is about five or five to half. ”

"Then fight!"

Si Lan clenched her fists and was eager to try, but at this time, she saw that the person took out a copper furnace from her sleeve, she couldn't help but pause, feeling a little bad, and asked, "What is the winning rate now?"

The figure of the white mist said: "Less than two percent." ”

Silan said angrily: "This gap is too big, can't I have Xuan Bing in my hands?"

"The magic weapon on the opposite side can be deduced to block the Xuan Bing, it is recommended to withdraw, his speed is similar to yours, in this underground cavern, you only need to make good use of your speed, there is hope of escape. ”

Si Lan listened to this opinion in time, she threw down a glowing object, and suddenly countless metallic silk threads covered the entire corridor, and at the same time, the light on the Xuanjia flashed, and she quickly withdrew.

As soon as the man waved his sleeves, the purple-red smoke rolled through, dissolving those silk threads, and then as soon as his figure grew, he turned into light and chased out.

Si Lan soon found out, but the people behind her were getting closer and closer, and she was a little flustered: "Chunbai, didn't you say that his speed is similar to mine?"

Chun Bai said: "He may also have a magic weapon to help Fei Escape, but it didn't work before." ”

Si Lan was a little broken in her heart, and said, "Can you do it?" ”

Chun Bai said: "There is a chance, go to the monk you met before, then you may survive five or five half, he should be in the eastern region, I will show you the general route to there." ”

Si Lan flew away in the cave with all her might, and calmly thought about and analyzed, "Half to half, pure white, do you mean that even if I ask for help, that monk may not be willing to help me?"

"No, I mean, it is not excluded that the two monks know each other. ”

“......”

"I'm sorry, you know, I'm just a newbie, a lot of things are not perfect, and the judgments I make are based on your past experience and knowledge. ”

"If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't beat you, I would have beaten you. ”

"I'm sorry. ”

"Shut up!"

At this time, Si Lan suddenly felt something different, looked up, and saw a figure standing with a sword in front of her, she was shocked, and her body couldn't help but pause, just like this, a cloud of purple smoke appeared behind her, and after it dispersed, the Taoist walked out from inside.
