Chapter 254: Underground Tomb, Skull of the First King
Yu Lie was in the corner of the secret passage, carefully sorting out the harvest from the weapon disciple named Liu, and his thoughts suddenly began to float in his heart.
He sat cross-legged and his eyes flickered: "Counting the one at Fangmen, this is the second time such an unexpected harvest has occurred! These two harvests are enough for me to have no worries about lack of resources before I complete my normal transformation.
"
If we include the old man surnamed Ye who Yu Lie and Miaom killed together before the assessment, strictly speaking, Yu Lie has already made three fortunes!
Especially the time when Old Dao Ye was named, it directly determined Yu Lie's current cultivation level and his survival situation in the assessment.
Thinking about it, Yu Lie closed his eyes slightly and thought to himself: "It is better to work for others than to make elixirs yourself. And to make elixirs yourself, it is better to let others make 'wedding clothes' for you!"
Three consecutive huge harvests made Yu Lie excited. He realized that in this assessment, if he seizes the opportunity, the biggest harvest may not come from the Taoist palace, but from other Taoist disciples.
of!
The desire in Yu Lie's heart increased greatly, and he was thinking about whether he should just stay in this world and become a strongman specializing in robbery!
With the trump card in his hand, his gains will definitely not be small.
For a while.
Yu Lie thought about it in his hiding place, but every time he wanted to make a decision, his mind would become more rational and he felt that this move was quite wrong.
In the end, he suppressed the evil thought in his heart.
Yu Lie sighed and warned himself:
"How can I keep my shoes from getting wet when I often walk on the shore? The weapon disciple named Liu has been practicing Taoism for nearly twenty years. He is considered a strong player in the assessment. He also has a sharp weapon like a cloak. As a result, he was not aware of it for a moment.
Did you also break yourself?"
In addition to the risks, another important reason why he pursued his greed of "killing people and grabbing treasures" is that the means of getting rich like "killing people and grabbing treasures" are just inferior.
Yu Lie, who has the experience of his previous life, can vaguely realize that if he wants to achieve great achievements, he cannot fall into this kind of "rogue" thinking. Especially the situation in the current assessment is determined by the Dao Palace.
.
If there is no Taoist palace above everyone's heads, fighting each other and devouring others, it is a powerful route that can allow Taoists to develop like a snowball.
But above everyone's heads, there happens to be a Dao Palace. This situation is somewhat similar to people in the Gu Dao raising voodoos, and they have to select the most vicious among them.
However, according to the Taoist books that Yu Lie has been reading, the right path of cultivation mentioned in many classics is to use a cultivation technique to understand the world, understand the principles, and trade materials with other Taoists.
Today's Immortal Dao is also prosperous because of this!
As for plunder, it is not unimportant, but it usually affects places outside the realm of mountains and seas, and is by no means internal or personal.
If Taoists could attack each other unscrupulously, it would be extremely difficult to establish a huge Immortal Dao system today, and even the dynastic system of ancient times would be difficult to recreate.
In short, raising Gu is not the right path for immortal cultivation!
After Yu Lie sorted this out, his thoughts became smoother.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and whispered secretly:
"So, the Taoist palace first threw everyone into this alien world in the name of survival, and then abolished the contract and divided everyone. Although it sounds okay on paper... But this move is still very wrong."
However, after thinking about it for a while, I realized that Yu Lie was just a Taoist disciple and knew very little. He couldn't decide anything at all, so he simply stopped thinking deeply.
When he came back to his senses, he picked up the newly refined black cloak in his hand, shook it gently, and then put it on himself.
Yu Lie's true energy circulated, and there was a burst of light distortion at his location, and his whole body turned into a lump of mold. Looking carefully, his location was like a distorted mass of air above the stove.
If there were any more smoke and dust around him, he would disappear almost out of thin air, just like the weapon disciple named Liu during the fight.
With this cloak in hand, Yu Lie's safety is undoubtedly better guaranteed. It can be said that during the entire Taoist disciple stage, few enemies will be able to keep him.
The only thing that made Yu Lie a little concerned was that he was not a Taoist official and had no spiritual consciousness. He didn't know whether the cloak could evade the detection of Taoist-level spiritual consciousness while distorting the light...
At the corner, Yu Lie put on his cloak and played with it for a while before preparing to return to the route and continue to the location of the treasure.
However, he paused, as if he remembered something, and suddenly patted the piggy bag on his waist and released a person.
When leaving the bunker, Yu Lie left with Soul Holder Girl, but when he was running in the wild later, it was quite troublesome to take her with him, so he put her into a piggy bag, only letting her out for air from time to time.
Later, they entered a secret passage. The passage was narrow, so in order to avoid alerting the weapon disciple named Liu, they kept the soul-grabbing girl in a piggy bag.
Now that there is no one else around and he is about to rush to the treasure hiding place, Yu Lie can just release the other party and use him to test the danger later.
With a bang, the soul-holding girl rolled to the ground, and the bone armor on her body made a rattling sound.
She opened her eyes suddenly, looked around quickly with sharp eyes.
After being suffocated in the piggy bag for most of the day, there was no sign of fatigue on the girl's face. When she looked around, she realized that Yu Lie's sudden call to her meant that she was not in danger, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
Yu Lie nodded towards the soul-holding girl and said casually: "The others have already left. Next, you and I will go alone."
Hearing this, the soul-holding girl knelt on one knee, immediately lowered her head and obeyed the order.
The next moment, without Yu Lie's instructions, she walked in front of Yu Lie, walking straight forward like a puppet.
Go straight all the way.
About half an hour later, Yu Lie walked out of a narrow crack, and the front suddenly became clear.
He climbed a staircase paved with black stone slabs and found that he seemed to be in a dark and damp palace. There were rock paintings on the left and right, and there were stone pillars, tall and strong, like a giant's room.
The murals were smeared with blood-like fuel to depict strange creatures one after another, some high and low, some giants and dwarves, wolves, tigers and leopards, as well as one-eyed, two-headed and other races.
According to what Yu Lie knows, most of the creatures on these murals have perished in the world of the Ferocious Dragon Court and have long since disappeared in the long river of history. Even their physical images have been annihilated.
Yu Lie also identified these strange creatures based on the fragments of words, rumors and pictures collected by other Taoist disciples in the bunker.
After glancing at the murals on the wall, Yu Lie withdrew his gaze and looked around with vigilance. He concentrated and calmed down, feeling if there were any other creatures in the darkness, and firmly held the Earth Fire Crystal in his hand.
Fortunately, when his vision passed through the darkness, everything he could see was empty.
Yu Lie waited for nearly a cup of tea to confirm that there was nothing unusual around him.
Breathing a sigh of relief, he nodded slightly towards the soul-holding girl who was guarding him, indicating that he should continue walking forward.
After walking for a while, Yu Lie discovered that the secret passage he came out of was across a road in the underground palace. And on this black stone road, there were many cracks around it, but he didn't know about the cracks.
Is there a secret passage at the end that can lead directly to the outside of the city?
While walking, Yu Lie looked at the murals on the walls and found that there was always a figure in the paintings.
The opponent was naked from the waist up, and his hair was as golden as color, standing out among the bright red creatures.
Although the murals were mottled and obliterated, and from time to time a large section of the wall would be damaged, but after looking at it for hundreds of steps, Yu Lie gradually came to understand:
"These murals seem to describe the great achievements of a warrior."
The strange creatures on the murals, no matter how ferocious and terrifying they appear, end up being killed by the naked blond warrior, whose heads are in his hands.
Yu Lie pondered, recalling the history of Hongyan City, whether there were any indigenous people with the right name.
Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of the soul-holding woman in front of him. Although she continued to explore the path, her body was trembling faintly, as if she had discovered something.
Yu Lie followed the other person's gaze and found that what caused the strangeness in the soul-holding woman's body was also the murals on the walls on both sides.
He turned to the other party and said awkwardly: "What did you find?"
Suddenly hearing Yu Lie's question, Soul Holder turned around and half-knelt on the ground. She lowered her head humbly and begged Yu Lie for forgiveness.
However, Yu Lie is not obsessed with the other party deserting, but really wants to ask the other party.
After he made his intention known, Soul-Controlling Girl showed an excited look on her face, as if she was eager to tell Yu Lie. But unfortunately, she was mute, and she only made a few ahhhhh sounds in her mouth.
It was Yu Lie who was patient, and after gesticulating with the other party for a long time, he finally understood what made the other party excited.
Suddenly, Yu Lie's eyes also showed a look of surprise. He stared at the figure on the mural and said in surprise:
"It turns out that he is not a native of the Red Rock Mountains, but the first king in this world to perform an ascension sacrifice, the first king of this world!"
This made Yu Lie interested.
It is impossible to know exactly how far away the First King of the Dragon Court world is from now, but one thing that is certain is that this First King has already died and cannot die anymore, and his will has returned to the sun. So far, he has never been able to die again.
There was no sign of coming back to life.
Yu Lie looked at the damp and dark underground palace and thought: "So, this is the tomb of the first king?"
But the problem came again. Although Yu Lie didn't know how big the world of Ferocious Dragon Court was, he did know how big the territory of Red Rock City was.
Compared with several surrounding territories, Hongyan City is only mid-range. However, because it is located in a mountain range, its location is steep and easy to defend and difficult to attack. It has existed slightly longer than the other territories, but not by much.
.
Yu Lie was very doubtful that he would encounter the real tomb of a king by such a coincidence, or was he the first king of this world?
Fortunately, soon, as Yu Lie continued to go deeper along the black stone stairs, more and more information was revealed on the murals, and he gradually understood it.
When I reached the end of the stairs, I saw several tall murals covering the dome of the entire palace-like building. What was depicted on them was that after King Chu ascended, his body was burned by the sun, and his flesh and blood turned into ashes, like
It fell to the ground like dead wood, and even the never-extinguished flame in his eyes was extinguished.
Only one of the skulls of the First King was still as dazzling as gold, falling like a meteor, even more dazzling than the sun when it fell.
The servants of the First King, according to the King's last words before his ascension, invited undead lords from all over the world along the strange and complex gaps in the skull to crack open the First King's skull and divide it into seventy-two pieces.
These bone fragments were welcomed back to their own territories by the seventy-two powerful immortal lords, built underground palaces, and enshrined and buried them.
Hongyan City was one of the original seventy-two territories.
After understanding this, Yu Liemu was surprised: "In other words, the treasure in front of you is probably one of the skull fragments of the first king!"
Almost immediately, he took out his Bone Alchemy Furnace and put it in his hands to play with.
According to the performance in the murals, the strength of the first generation king is undoubtedly one of the best in the history of this world, even the most powerful. Because both from the murals and from the songs, it is revealed that the king's ascension is different from that of the subsequent kings.
.
The subsequent kings often soared into the air, only to be burned up by the flames cast by the sun and turned into debris.
Only this first-generation king was bathed in the flames of the sun. He was not burned to death until he reached the surface of the sun and was burned in the sun.
And among all the kings who have held the Ascension Sacrifice so far, only this one's skull has been left intact.
The other kings don't even have a complete skull, they don't even have an incomplete skull. At most, they only have a few stubbles on their bones, and each generation is getting weaker and weaker.
Although Yu Lie didn't know how powerful a creature like Chu Wang could exterminate thousands of ancient creatures and bathe in the sun, it was classified as a creature among the ninth rank of Immortal Dao.
But the opponent is at least level six, and is very likely to be above level six, higher than the lizard in the secret realm of lizards!
The skull of such a creature, even if it is only one of the seventy-two fragments, is a rare treasure in the world.
And Yu Lie's Bone Pill Furnace was made by him from the skulls of creatures in this world.
He couldn't help but think: "If the skull fragments are still there and obtained, they can be refined into my alchemy furnace."
With excitement in their hearts, the rest of the troops walked down quickly, and finally came to a huge "palace", or "coffin", which was as square as a skull.
From the eye socket of the skull palace, he saw from a distance that there was indeed a bone fragment that was as dazzling as gold.
Even in a dark environment, it burns like fire, emitting a golden light on its own, which is dazzling.
