Could it be that the formation just now was a random transmission?
Will we enter a secret realm again?
Zu An's heart tightened. Every time he entered the secret realm before, he was randomly teleported like this.
However, he took out a night-light pearl and illuminated the surrounding environment. Seeing the tomb passages extending in all directions, he breathed a sigh of relief at the familiar architectural styles and atmosphere.
He's still in the tomb, but he can't sense the presence of other people or living things. It's definitely not the upper floors of the tomb.
However, he quickly focused his eyes and noticed that white bones were scattered on the ground from time to time. Judging from the size of those bones, they were obviously not human, and he didn't know what kind of monster died here.
Suddenly a strange wind came from the tomb passage, which was mixed with waves of suppressed roars.
It is closer than what I just heard in the tomb of Baopu Xianjun, and I can feel the pressure more clearly. I think this place must be deep in the tomb.
He thought that both Baopu Xianjun and Jingteng had mentioned before that the truly terrifying monsters were sealed deep in the tomb, but before, neither the Death Reaper nor the Earth Fire Demon were qualified to be in the lower levels.
Thinking of this, his expression became a little solemn. It would be better to find Jing Teng and leave here as soon as possible.
But the tomb passages here extend in all directions, like a maze. Which way should I go?
He tried to use his spiritual thoughts to investigate, but unfortunately, the tomb suppressed his spiritual thoughts very much. This was deep in the tomb, which prevented his spiritual thoughts from leaving three feet around him. It was better to see farther with visual distance.
He raised the jade cong on his arm, and a flash of fluorescence appeared on it, but it quickly dissipated. As expected, there were no living animals nearby.
When he was not sure which way to go, he suddenly sniffed and smelled a faint smell of sulfur.
Since there are no other clues, let's follow this aura and take a look.
At the beginning, the smell was relatively light, but then the smell became stronger and stronger, mixed with the sultry air flow, and the whole person felt as if he was in a sauna.
Zu An frowned, could it be an underground hot spring or something?
He mobilized vitality throughout his body, and soon his whole body became cool.
Continuing to explore forward, we found that the surrounding area could hardly be called tomb passages, and there were many natural caves.
Could it be that this large tomb was built on the mountain and took advantage of some natural terrain?
But what kind of being could build such a large tomb?
There are many forked roads along the way. Not long after you go forward, you will encounter several forked roads. The key is that each forked road is winding and winding, and some caves will appear at intervals. They all look similar, making people dizzy, like a maze.
generally.
At first, Zu An secretly memorized the road, but later on he completely lost it and couldn't remember the road at all.
He could feel that he was not walking on a horizontal surface all the time. Those natural rock cave tunnels seemed to go deeper and deeper, but because the slope was not large, it was difficult to have an intuitive feeling.
Gradually, a red light appeared faintly in front.
Zu An looked for the light and found that it was not a red light, but that the wall was burned red.
The surrounding air is getting thinner and thinner, and all kinds of heat waves are coming towards you, which are several times more powerful than where you encountered the Earth Flame Demon before.
If it weren't for Zu An's advanced cultivation and Pei Mianman's flame pendant protecting his body, he might have spontaneously combusted by now.
"Is it lava again?" Zu An frowned slightly, but he was relieved after thinking about it. The reason why lava appeared above the Balrog before was probably caused by the overflow of fire elemental power deep in the tomb.
His shoes became sticky, and even with all kinds of protection, there were still some signs of being baked.
Upon seeing this, he planned to turn around and leave to find another way. Although he could still hold on now, who knows if continuing to walk in would turn into a barbecue.
At this moment, a faint voice seemed to come from inside: "Help...help...me..."
Zu An's heart moved and he looked forward. The voice did not ring again, but he knew that he would never hear it wrong.
After hesitating for a moment, he decided to go and see the situation.
When I came down here, my eyesight went dark, there were mazes everywhere, and I didn't know where to find Jing Teng. Finally, I met a living creature, so it would be a good idea to ask him for information.
Carefully using his vitality to protect his body, he stepped on the red-hot ground and walked forward.
At this moment, his heart moved, and he took out the Soul Burning Fire Crystal from before, and saw that its whole body was shining brightly, as if it was absorbing the power of the surrounding fire element.
With the help of the Soul Burning Fire Crystal, Zu An felt that the pressure was greatly reduced and his progress was much faster.
He felt a little strange. He didn't know what kind of material the surrounding rock walls were made of, and they didn't show any signs of melting after being burned like this.
After advancing for a while, a white lake appeared in front of us.
However, if you look closely, you will see that the lake water inside is all filled with magma. All the magma is actually transparent white, which shows how high the temperature has reached.
Strictly speaking, these are no longer magma, but the most original manifestation of the fire element.
Not to mention ordinary people, even high-level practitioners would be burned to ashes if they encountered it.
The area of this lake is countless times larger than that of the previous Fire Demon. You can't see the edge at a glance, as if it is not a lake, but a sea.
But what shocked Zu An was that in the center of the lava, there was a small island, estimated to be less than one meter in diameter.
An old monk was sitting there, clasping his hands together and muttering sutras to himself. There was a vague Buddha light shining all over his body, barely blocking the surging magma around him.
However, all his clothes had been destroyed, leaving only his old and hunched body, with various scars and burns vaguely visible on it. There was almost no intact skin, which was obviously injured by the splashing magma for a long time.
As if feeling Zu An's arrival, the old monk slowly opened his eyes, with a touch of joy in his tone: "Finally, I have found a destined person. Come here quickly, I will pass on what I have learned throughout my life to you.
His mantle will not be cut off."
Zu An did not move, but instead raised his hands and asked, "Why are you here, senior?"
"It's a long story." The old monk sighed.
"It's okay, I have plenty of time." Zu An said with a smile. Although he was also worried about Jing Teng's safety, he still looked quite leisurely on the surface.
Old monk: "..."
He had no choice but to say: "Back then, I exterminated demons and defended the way, and went deep into the tomb. Unfortunately, after a big battle, I was seriously injured and was accidentally trapped here. After so many years, I have almost run out of fuel. I thought I could only survive silently."
After death, I didn’t expect that a destined person would come to me. In this way, I can pass on all my skills to you, so that my legacy can be passed down to future generations, and I will have no regrets in this life.”
"Thank you, senior. You can speak now. I am all ears." Zu An said with a respectful expression.
Old monk: "..."
He had no choice but to say patiently: "I don't have much life left, and I probably won't be able to sustain it. Now that I've finished speaking, come here and I'll pass it on to you in the form of spiritual transmission. Since you can come here safely, I think you'll have good cultivation. Flying
It shouldn’t be too much of a problem to get here.”
Zu An said in a deep voice: "It's just that I have important things to do. I will listen to the teachings of my seniors after I finish the things."
"Didn't you just say that you have plenty of time?" The old monk was startled and said quickly, "My lifespan has been exhausted and I only have one breath left. I will definitely be dead by the time you come back. It's better to seize the time to teach the Dharma now."
Well, the whole process is very quick.”
Zu An scratched his head in embarrassment: "What senior said makes sense. Since it won't take much time, I will accept the inheritance from senior first."
Hearing the other party's words, the old monk's eyes flashed with joy. No one has come here for so many years. As long as he comes here, he will have the opportunity to occupy his body and leave this seal against himself.
So he said more kindly: "Come here quickly."
Zu An ran to the edge of the magma. As soon as he took off and advanced a few meters, flames appeared on his clothes. He was so frightened that he ran back in a hurry: "No, no, I don't know what's going on with the magma down here. It's too powerful. I
Can’t get through.”
He put away the flame pendant and the soul-burning fire crystal, and did not use his full energy to protect the body, which was why he was in such a mess.
The old monk muttered: "The color of this magma has turned white. It is the manifestation of the ultimate fire spirit. It is really difficult for ordinary people to resist. Anyway, I happen to have something here that can help you survive this magma."
As soon as he finished speaking, he took out an alms bowl from nowhere and gently rubbed the surface. The reluctance on his face seemed to be caressing his lover.
With a gentle lift, the alms bowl flew directly in front of Zu An, and then he hurriedly warned: "You jump directly into it, it can temporarily serve as a boat to ferry you over, you must be quick, it will stay in this magma for a long time."
You will also be damaged."
Zu An took the alms bowl. Its surface was purple-gold, and there were some Buddha statues engraved on it. There was a vast feeling of compassion spreading out.
Zu An was startled, maybe he thought wrongly.
He couldn't help but ask: "This thing looks magical, but I wonder what its use is?"
The old monk replied: "This object is called the Purple Gold Bowl. It can help resist the protection of various extraterrestrial demons or other charms that target the soul. This object has been recognized by me as its owner. You can come over later and get my inheritance."
, you can naturally become its new owner.”
He was worried that the other party would become greedy and deliberately named the object to recognize its owner. Without his own permission, it would be useless for others to obtain it.
On the contrary, as long as you come here to get his inheritance, you will get everything. It shouldn't be difficult to decide which one to choose.
Zu An was overjoyed. Although his Hongmeng Yuanshi Jing could purify many evil things, it did not have much effect on some attacks against divine souls.
After all, Bai Ming is an attack-type spell, and the guardian spirit is not professional.
In the past, we fought with the Ghost King and were restrained everywhere. If there was such a thing, everyone wouldn't be in such a mess.
What's more, it can also guard against extraterrestrial demons. According to legend, after you practice to a certain level, your inner demons will be reborn every time you break through, and even extraterrestrial demons will come. Once you can't protect your heart, the demons will swallow up your soul and you will suffer.
Cultivation goes down the drain.
Thinking of this, he raised his hand towards the old monk and said, "Thank you, senior, for the treasure. I am still anxious to save my friend. After saving my friend, I will come immediately to accept the inheritance from senior."
After saying that, he put the purple gold alms bowl in his arms and ran away.
The old monk was waiting for him to come over with a smile. When he saw the scene in front of him, he was dumbfounded: "???"
