Xu Tong stepped on the green bricks and walked down the steps step by step. This step was deeper than he thought and he didn't know where it led.
But the further down you go, the smell of blood wafts into the air.
This made Xu Tong frown and suddenly became alert.
At this moment, a scarlet light flashed under the steps in front of him. Xu Tong walked down the steps and took a look.
In front of him was a huge prison cell.
Each pillar was like a giant pillar holding the sky, and each one made Xu Tong feel his own insignificance.
When he raised his head, he saw a dozen dragon-like iron ropes running through from all directions. One end of the iron ropes extended deep into the cell, as if it was imprisoning something.
"I didn't expect that there would be such a big prison hidden under the Emperor's Forbidden Palace?"
Xu Tong's heart was filled with turmoil, and his reason was telling him to leave as soon as possible and not to provoke things here.
But Xu Tong was not a person who listened to reason. His strong curiosity made him eager to know who was qualified to be imprisoned in this place.
Immediately he looked at the huge cell in front of him with his life-eye Qimen.
The result was chaos and nothing could be seen.
But even so, Xu Tong was not willing to approach the cage rashly. He looked around and found that there seemed to be a stone tablet next to the cage, so he walked over and took a look, and saw eight big characters written on the stone tablet.
[The crime is hard to erase, Yongzhen Youshan]
Eight big characters with a stylus and a silver hook, Xu Tong was determined, and when he saw these eight characters, he couldn't help but feel an irresistible sense of oppression.
It even made it impossible for him to get close to this prison.
Taking a closer look, Xu Tong found that there was a seal in the lower left corner of the stone tablet.
"Huh??"
Seeing this, Xu Tong seemed to have thought of something, rummaged through the props book, and then casually took out a seal.
After comparing them with each other, it turned out to be the seal of the Great Emperor.
It seems that this place is the emperor's handiwork.
Just when Xu Tong wanted to see if there was anything else here, the originally dark cage in front of him suddenly burst into flames.
Xu Tong's heart tightened and he stepped back.
Inside the cage, he saw a huge head. The head was wrapped in scalding flames, as bright and scorching as a sun.
"call"
The gasping sound of the head rushed out of the cell with a fiery storm. Just one breath turned this place into a huge oven.
The hoarse voice echoed in the prison. The temperature inside the prison was soaring. It was very difficult for Xu Tong to open his eyes. Every breath he took was as painful as stuffing a red-hot iron into his mouth.
I had to retreat step by step until I retreated to a safer place before I stopped.
Fortunately, I have extremely high resistance to flames, otherwise I would have been cooked by the heat right now.
At this time, the head slowly squirmed, and the face was close to the edge of the cage. Two burning eyeballs stared at Xu Tong: "Young man, I have been waiting for you for a long, long time."
But upon hearing this, Xu Tong rolled his eyes and thought to himself, "Can't you idiots just use a different rhetoric???"
The other party did not notice the disdain in his eyes, and continued: "I feel the same source of power in you. My child, let me out, and I can give you power you can't imagine."
“I can’t imagine what kind of power it is??”
Xu Tong blinked and asked seriously.
The huge head trembled a few times, as if he didn't expect Xu Tong to ask such a question. For a moment, he didn't know how to answer. He was silent for a while, and then he said: "The original power of fire is enough to make you burn all the heavens."
Sky! No one in the sky or on the earth can stop your progress, and even if you are willing, you can turn the whole world into a sea of hell and fire!"
Such impassioned speeches made Xu Tong almost fall asleep.
It wasn't that he wasn't interested, but that he had heard countless versions of this rhetoric in the hospital before he became a player.
The situation in front of me is obviously outdated.
However, Xu Tong still pretended to be very interested, stretched out his palm and said: "Then give it to me."
"You have to let me out first!" The head twisted a few times, but the iron rope behind the head was pulled, and it was pulled back again.
Only then did Xu Tong notice that these iron ropes were all stuck on the back of the head like iron nails.
Seeing this, Xu Tong spread his hands helplessly: "You really think highly of me. You are so powerful that you can't get out. How can I let you out??"
"No, you can. You have a big seal on your hand. As long as you put that big seal on the stone tablet, you can let me out."
At this point, the huge head began to get excited.
At the same time, Xu Tong also received a reminder from the side mission.
"Side Mission 3: Liberate the Ancient God
Mission description: When you hold the key to liberating the ancient god, you only need to unlock his shackles to get everything you want.
Mission completed: you can obtain the inheritance of the ancient gods,
Mission failure: no penalty"
Seeing the prompt from the props book, Xu Tong's eyes flickered, he looked sideways at the stone tablet in front of him and the Great Emperor's Seal in his hand, and couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of spit.
He walked forward slowly and raised the big seal on his hand.
This move undoubtedly caused the head in the cage to breathe rapidly for a moment. He had been imprisoned for who knows how many years, and he was already desperate.
And now that hope is right in front of him, one can imagine how excited he is.
But at this time, Xu Tong's hand stopped and he put the seal back: "You haven't told me yet, who are you and why are you locked up here?"
When the head saw this, his eyes suddenly widened, and the blazing flames gradually turned blue-white, but unfortunately, neither the chains imprisoning him nor the cell in front of him seemed to have changed at all.
Seeing this, he could only take a deep breath, force himself to calm down, and use gentle words as much as possible to say to Xu Tong: "I am Zhu Rong, the God of Fire. My child, part of your strength is inheritance and
I, in other words, you are also my descendant."
"Vulcan Zhurong??"
This answer surprised Xu Tong, because he had heard this name in the fairy tale, Wrath Buzhou Mountain.
I didn't expect to see him alive today.
What made him even more curious was why Zhu Rong was locked up here with only one head left.
Facing Xu Tong's inquiry, Zhu Rong was silent for a while and then said: "This matter is too complicated. I won't be able to explain it clearly to you for a while. All you need to do is open the ban and send me out. This favor, I will
In the name of Zhu Rong, I promise you that I will repay you twice as much."
"oh!!"
Xu Tong raised his head: "Then I'll think about it."
“Consider??Consider what??”
Hearing this, Zhu Rong could hardly suppress his emotions any longer, and the flames turned from bluish-white to deep purple. The terrifying high temperature caused the surrounding space to distort for a moment.
Xu Tong flicked his fingers and saw a paper airplane pop out of his hand. But before he could get closer, it turned into a spark and disappeared completely, leaving not even a trace of dust behind.
Xu Tong had no doubt that, let alone a piece of paper, even if he were to approach it at this moment, his fate would probably be the same as that piece of paper.
Facing Zhu Rong's questioning, Xu Tong's expression was particularly calm.
"Although the conditions you gave are very tempting, I don't think I can walk down the mountain safely if I let you go!"
Sitting above his head are the Five Ghost Emperors, Five Emperors and Great Demon Kings, as well as the Mansion Lord who is personally in charge. It can be said that most of the supreme gods and demons in the underworld are there. Rather than saying that they don't think highly of themselves, it is better to say that they don't think highly of the Zhu Rong clan.
Since he can be suppressed by the Emperor here, it means that the Emperor can suppress him a second time at any time.
By then, he, the chief culprit, may not be able to escape, and may even implicate his master and master, which is not what he wants to see.
Therefore, even if there is a mission prompt, Xu Tong is not going to take the risk. He likes to explore, but it does not mean that he is as impulsive as Chang Wugu.
"It's getting late, I'll leave now and I'll see you next time."
After Xu Tong said this, he turned around and left.
"etc!!"
Seeing that Xu Tong was about to leave, Zhu Rong calmed down. He looked at Xu Tong, and Xu Tong's reflection appeared in his eyes. For a moment, Xu Tong felt that his whole body was shaking, as if time around him had slowed down.
One shot.
This feeling disappeared in the blink of an eye. When Xu Tong recovered, a sinister smile gradually appeared on his huge face: "I saw it!"
Xu Tong frowned, ignored it and continued walking forward.
He had satisfied his curiosity and just didn't intend to listen to this old bastard's nonsense anymore.
But Zhu Rong's voice behind him kept getting into Xu Tong's ears, as if it had grown legs.
"Hahahaha, I saw your death date. Just recently, blood was sprinkled all over the red leaves. Your body will fall under a bloody tree. You have no way to survive!!"
The low roar was still echoing in Xu Tong's ears until he walked out of the dungeon.
But Xu Tong didn't believe this at all.
Compared with the hospital's magician, this guy's routine is really out of date.
"Ding! Side mission 1: Visiting the Forbidden Palace has been completed."
When Xu Tong walked out of the dungeon, a prompt sounded. It seemed that this dungeon was one of the thirteen buildings in the Forbidden Palace.
He raised his head and took a look at his luck. Although it was not good, it was not bad either. However, just in case, Xu Tong couldn't help but make a fortune.
Take a look at the hexagram [Jian hexagram]
This is the first time that Xu Tong has figured out this hexagram, but overall it is not bad, but it is not good for traveling eastward, but the direction of the top of Youshan Mountain is exactly in the southwest, so it seems that he may not have no chance of climbing to the top of Youshan Mountain this time.
Immediately, Xu Tong regained his composure, quietly opened the door a crack, glanced left and right, and after confirming that there were no guards around, he stood on tiptoes and walked up to the top of the secluded mountain in front of him...
