As soon as he stepped into the room, a terrifying murderous intention rushed towards him.
Liang Yan and Wu Xin were both shocked.
Although they had prepared for it, they didn't expect that the test of this level would come so quickly!
Before they could clearly see the situation, there was a ray of light all around them, and hundreds of light pillars gathered together, like a huge cage, trying to lock the two of them in place.
"Go separately!"
Liang Yan and Wu Xinji have a tacit understanding, so there is no need to talk nonsense.
The two men headed east and west, splitting into two directions to break out. Liang Yan launched a purple sword light, and thunderous sword intent rushed out, cutting the oncoming glow in half in just an instant.
At the same time, Wuxin also shot continuously with both hands, and the purple demonic energy surged out, turning into a long river of demonic energy, sucking all the rays of light into it.
After a hundred years, the two joined forces again, and they could still trust each other as they did in Hades.
In just a few moments, the two of them had resolved the crisis. The strange glow rushing around them was dispersed by their magical powers, and finally dissipated into nothingness.
However, the murderous intention that was so powerful that it made one's scalp numb still remained in this space.
Liang Yan and Wu Xin fell back to the ground, both of them couldn't help but look at the source of the murderous intent.
The next scene shocked them.
What they saw was a huge skeleton, a hundred feet high, with the top of its head almost touching the top restriction. Liang Yan and Wu Xin were only as tall as their toe bones in front of it.
Although he has been dead for who knows how many thousands of years, this continuous killing intent burst out from this skeleton!
"Such a strong killing intent. What kind of existence is this? Even though he has been dead for so many years, he still has a strong killing intent." Wu Xin looked at the huge skeleton in front of him with a look of wonder in his eyes.
"Judging from the appearance of this skeleton, it seems to be a monster like an ancient dragon."
Liang Yan observed carefully for a moment and said slowly: "If I guessed correctly, this should be a test left by Tianji Pavilion. The core disciples of the year must defeat this monster before they are qualified to enter the next room. It's just that
It has been many years since Tianji Pavilion was destroyed, and this monster could not survive the long years, and finally died here and turned into a pile of bones."
After listening to his analysis, Wuxin nodded slowly.
"You are right. The Xiaguang that attacked us just now should be a trap in this room. As long as someone enters, the trap will automatically activate. As for this ancient beast, it must be guarding the room. As long as someone steps into the trap,
It will attack immediately!"
When Wuxin said this, he paused slightly and continued: "After all, the lifespan of the monster is limited. It is trapped in the Thousand Machine Demonic Tower and cannot break out. It is not like those puppets who can survive and can only turn into a pile of bones in the end. But.
Even if only the bones are left, it still has not forgotten its mission, and its powerful murderous aura is facing the door of the room, which must be its persistence in its mission."
"Indeed, what a pity!"
Liang Yan sighed and said: "Tianji Pavilion is such a huge thing, it cannot withstand the rise and fall of the years. The sect that was prosperous in the past has now completely withered."
In fact, what they saw and heard along the way all showed how powerful Tianji Pavilion was once. Unfortunately, time was ruthless, and even such a powerful sect eventually declined.
As for the reason for the destruction of Tianji Pavilion, he had actually already made a guess.
"Saints are immortal. Tianji Pavilion is a sect with two saints. The only one who can destroy such a sect is a more powerful saint." Liang Yan expressed his opinion.
"It's very possible!" Wu Xin said slowly: "The Tianji Pavilion was very prosperous back then. Why did it mysteriously disappear overnight? I'm afraid only the strong ones at the saint level know some clues. As for our current realm, I'm afraid we can't reach it.
."
"Forget it, what happened back then has nothing to do with us. What's more important is to hurry up and get to the top of the Thousand Magic Tower."
Liang Yan came back to his senses and stopped discussing the unknown mysteries, and instead looked around the room.
This room is empty, with no traps except for the trap at the door. It seems that the original Tianji Pavilion elder had great trust in the monster in front of him and let it guard this room alone.
For Liang Yan and Wu Xin, it would be very easy to get through this level without the obstruction of monsters.
"Let's go. I've calculated it using the 'Yingshan Bird'. There's no danger in this room."
After Wuxin finished speaking, he cast a spell again to urge Yingshan Bird to lead the way, while he and Liang Yan walked behind.
Although the surroundings were quiet, the two of them did not relax their vigilance. They both released their spiritual consciousness and did not miss any suspicious spots.
In this way, the two followed Yingshanniao through another seven or eight rooms, during which they saw three skeletons.
These three skeletons are different from each other, some are very tall, and some are as skinny as a mouse. But judging from the murderous aura in the skeletons, these monsters were not weak in life, at least they were able to survive more than one disaster in the tribulation realm.
When they arrived at the tenth room, Liang Yan and Wuxin suddenly smelled an unusual smell.
"Someone has been here!"
Liang Yan knelt down and carefully examined the traces on the ground. Although no footprints could be seen, there was obviously residual breath.
Wu Xin also squatted down, grabbed a handful of soil on the ground, examined it carefully for a moment with her magical power, and said slowly:
"These traces are still very new, indicating that the man left not long ago, and we were the first batch to enter the 'Beast Prison'. Now apart from the two of us, Yang Jianying is the only one here."
"It's probably him." Liang Yan nodded, with a hint of joy in his eyes.
Due to the Yang Family Sword Seal, Yang Jianying is no longer Liang Yan's competitor, but a major helper to him. Finding this person will be of great help to subsequent explorations.
"Which way did he go?" Liang Yan asked.
Wu Xin made a magic trick, opened his mouth and blew out a cloud of purple energy. He lightly touched the mark on the ground, and the next moment it turned into a spiritual light, pointing to the left side of the fork in the road.
"Go to the left." Wu Xin replied.
"The Yingshan bird guides us to the right?"
"Not bad." Wu Xin nodded.
"It seems that Yang Jianying is going in the completely opposite direction to us."
Liang Yan pondered. He now faced two choices. One was to follow Ying Shanniao's guidance and rush to the exit of the maze. The other was to temporarily deviate from the route and go to find Yang Jianying first, and then the three of them headed to the exit of the maze together.
"Yang Jianying is not weak. With his help, it should be much easier for us. I think we should go find Yang Jianying first, and then go to the next level together." Liang Yan expressed his opinion.
After Wu Xin heard this, he frowned slightly and said, "We are also competing with other geniuses now. When the key to the Mountain Palace was opened, the heaven and earth were too strange. It is estimated that several other geniuses will arrive one after another. In other words, we are not
You won’t be much ahead of others.”
The meaning of what she said was very obvious. Time was tight, and it seemed that the gain outweighed the loss in going to Yang Jianying.
After Liang Yan pondered for a moment, he said slowly: "Let's go to the left road first. If Yang Jianying is not found in three consecutive rooms, then we will not go deeper, but return to the original path and continue on our own path.
."
"Okay, I'll do as you say!" Wu Xin had no objection this time.
After the two discussed it, they temporarily accepted the "Yingshan Bird", quickened their pace, and walked forward along the passage on the left.
Not long after, they came to the next room.
This place is still empty, without any mechanism or the skeleton of a monster.
The pace of the two slowed down, and their consciousnesses came out to carefully check the surrounding ground, trying to find the traces left by Yang Jianying.
Just when they reached the middle of the room, Liang Yan's brows suddenly frowned slightly.
The next moment, the "Bodhi Mirror" spontaneously operated, and his expression suddenly changed.
"careful!"
Liang Yan exclaimed, grabbing Wu Xin beside him and retreating back more than ten feet.
Just as they were about to set off, Wu Xin's feet, where she was originally standing, suddenly erupted with a loud noise, and then two huge claws stretched out from the ground.
Fortunately, Wu Xin had already been pulled away by Liang Yan at this time, and those claws emerging from the ground were destined to be in vain.
"Are there any monsters still alive?"
Seeing these huge claws, Wu Xin was frightened for a while, but she immediately thought of something and a look of confusion appeared in her eyes.
"After so many years, haven't all the monsters in the Thousand Machines Demonic Tower died? How come there are still some alive?"
After hearing this, Liang Yan did not answer immediately. Instead, he used the "Bodhi Mirror" to carefully examine the ground under his feet.
The claw just missed and retracted immediately, now hiding under their feet, planning the next attack!
After a moment, a golden light flashed in Liang Yan's eyes, and he pulled Wu Xin to jump up high. At the same time, he squeezed the magic formula in his hand, and the Purple Thunder Sword Pill was like a thunderbolt, and struck the ground under his feet with one sword.
Boom!
Lightning bursts and sword energy spreads across the sky.
With just one strike of his sword, Liang Yan split the ground beneath his feet into an abyss of a hundred feet!
In the abyss, a pair of faint eyes were watching the two of them.
"over there!"
Wuxin saw the eyes in the abyss, and felt a surge of anger in her heart. Before Liang Yan could take action, she made a magic spell, and a long knife made of demonic energy clanked above her head.
The next moment, Wuxin raised his hand and pointed, and the long knife shot out, slashing at the black shadow in the abyss.
"Squeak!"
The black shadow let out a strange scream, and its figure was very strong and vigorous. It flashed and moved in the abyss, avoiding the unintentional magic knife blade several times.
"Let you hide!"
Unintentionally, it attacked me secretly, pinched the magic formula with both hands, and activated the "Purple Flower Demonic Sutra". The vast demonic energy poured into the ground like a tide, filling the entire abyss in an instant.
The black shadow had no way to avoid it, and had nowhere to hide. It could only jump out of the abyss with all its might.
Only at this time did Liang Yan and Wu Xin see its appearance clearly.
What I saw was a giant golden-haired rat. It was huge and had many pitted wounds on its belly. The blood had turned black and dried and turned into blood scabs. There were dozens of pustules of different sizes on its back, as if they were alive.
It was still swelling and shrinking, looking very disgusting.
"What kind of monster is this?"
Wu Xin and Liang Yan both had this question. They looked at each other, but neither of them had an answer.
At this time, Lao Jin's voice suddenly sounded in Liang Yan's sea of consciousness: "This is the 'Drilling Rat' of the demon clan!"
"Drilling rat?" Liang Yan raised his eyebrows.
Lao Jin is a great demon who has lived for thousands of years. He once followed the "Tao Seeker" and has a wide range of knowledge. Liang Yan also has deep faith in him.
"The Heaven-Drilling Rat is also a race with extraordinary talents. After successful cultivation, it can reach the strength of the human race's catastrophe state. This is an adult 'Drilling Rat' in front of you, but its aura is a bit strange."
"What's strange?" Liang Yan asked immediately.
"You haven't noticed that there's something wrong with its eyes. It seems like it's dead?"
After Lao Jin reminded him, Liang Yan took a closer look and found something was wrong.
This "Drilling Rat" has dull eyes and drooling mouth. It looks like a walking corpse.
"How could this happen? It seems. It seems"
"It seems like it has turned into a human zombie?"
When Liang Yan was considering his words and sentences, Wu Xin suddenly expressed his thoughts for him.
"Yes! That's what it means! Huh? You think so too?" Liang Yan looked at Wu Xin beside him.
"I don't think so, I'm sure!"
Wu Xin's face was solemn, and he raised his hand to cast a spell. He saw a purple talisman floating in the air, and the glow bloomed, almost covering the entire room.
"This is Tianmo Mountain's 'Soul Hunting Seal'. As long as you pour a ray of the opponent's aura into it, you can search for the opponent within a certain range. I just fought with it briefly and have captured a trace of its aura, but now'
There is no response from the Soul Hunting Mark, which means that the golden-haired rat in front of you has no soul at all!"
"It doesn't have a soul? This is strange!" Liang Yan's expression became solemn, and he said solemnly: "Since it has no soul in its body, what is it that is fighting with us now?"
No one could explain this question, and both of them fell silent at the same time.
Opposite them, the golden-haired rat did not move rashly, but faced the two of them, staring straight at Liang Yan and Wu Xin with its dull rat eyes.
"Be careful, it has been many years since the Tianji Pavilion was destroyed. There is no way that there are monsters still alive in the Thousand Magic Tower. This golden-haired rat is different. Maybe someone is secretly controlling it." Wu Xin secretly sent a message to Liang Yan.
"You mean, there are other geniuses who have also arrived here and are secretly controlling the body of this monster?"
Liang Yan understood Wu Xin's meaning, but immediately shook his head and replied via voice transmission: "This is unlikely. The name of the rat in front of me is the 'Drilling Sky Rat'. It is not a particularly powerful monster clan. Tianji Pavilion has been destroyed for many years."
, other monsters have turned into bones, why can it still retain its intact body? I think there is some unknown mutation that happened on this level."
"Yes, what you said makes sense. Could it be that the gatekeeper puppets on this level are the same as Wuya Shenjun?" Wu Xin guessed.
"It's too early to say that now."
Liang Yan narrowed his eyes and said solemnly: "First kill this soulless 'sky-drilling rat' and see what's weird in its body!"
