Under the light of Kanshui Blade, a row of deformed skeletons were embedded on the stone wall at the bottom of the pool. The light shone on the skeletons with the ripples of the water, making it look particularly strange as it flickered on and off.
These skeletons have been soaked at the bottom of this pool for who knows how many years, and the skin and flesh on their bodies have long since rotted away.
However, when Liang Xi thought about the fact that she had stepped on these skeletons when she was practicing alone, she still felt a chill on the soles of her feet.
The little fox stared at the row of skeletons for a while, then slowly swam over.
Liang Xi had also recovered from the shock just now, and followed the little fox to swim to the skeleton to take a closer look.
These skeletons were all complete, with no signs of missing limbs or arms, so Liang Xi quickly concluded that this place was not originally a battlefield.
However, most of the hands of these remains were held in the air, as if they had held weapons in their hands before death, which is a bit puzzling.
Liang Xi and the little fox studied for a while, and finally decided to go into the cave. The answer is most likely to be in the artificially dug cave.
The entrance to the cave is flat and smooth and can accommodate one person inside.
One person and one animal swam in the long and narrow corridor for about the time it took a cup of tea, when they suddenly noticed a glimmer of light coming from a place not far ahead.
Liang Xi and the little fox looked at each other, nodded in unison, and swam forward quickly.
The light became brighter and brighter. Liang Xi swam to the place where the light came from. Suddenly, her head relaxed and she realized that she had surfaced.
The little fox followed suit and stuck out his little head, then crawled along Liang Xi's shoulders to the top of his head, shaking his body to shake off the water droplets on his fur.
Liang Xi bit the Kanshui Blade in her mouth and looked around.
After passing through the long and narrow corridor, it turns out that there is a completely different world.
Liang Xi found herself in a cave. The cave was about two stories high and seven or eight hundred square meters. A blue crystal as tall as a person was erected not far away. It was the one that just glowed.
The light emitted by this crystal was brighter than the Kanshui Blade, illuminating the cave almost like daylight.
Liang Xi swam to the shore with the little fox.
"I didn't expect that there was such a place under the waterfall." Liang Xi looked around and saw that someone had built a high platform deep in the cave.
After glancing at the little fox, Liang Xi walked over with it.
The floor in the cave was paved with polished stone slabs. Liang Xi couldn't help but wonder who could build such a cave under the waterfall.
When she got closer and saw a square bronze coffin placed on the stone platform, Liang Xi's heart skipped a beat.
"It turns out to be a tomb." Liang Xi touched her chin.
Liang Xi felt weird breaking into someone else's grave in the middle of the night.
But curiosity conquered everything.
Liang Xi walked to the stone platform and stood in front of the coffin to look at it carefully.
The coffin is more than one foot long and three feet wide. It looks extremely heavy. There is no carving pattern on the surface of the coffin. It is as smooth as a mirror. I don't know what era it is.
After walking around the coffin, he didn't find anything strange. Just when he was feeling a little discouraged, the little fox suddenly called to him with a squeak.
Liang Xi saw the little fox standing on one side of the cave, looking up at the wall, so she walked over and looked at the wall too.
There are paintings carved one after another on the walls.
"Hey, what is this?" Liang Xi couldn't help but wonder after taking a look.
The little fox stretched out its little paw and pointed at the coffin. Liang Xi knew what it meant and nodded: "You said it might be the life story of the person lying in the coffin? Well, let me take a look first."
The light from the crystal in the cave was enough for Liang Xi and the little fox to see clearly the reliefs on the wall, so Liang Xi inserted the water blade back into her waist.
There are a dozen reliefs in total, arranged in order from right to left.
Liang Xi held the little fox in her arms and looked at each other.
The first picture shows a mountain, with a man standing on the top of the mountain holding a sword, but it doesn't seem like he is a human being because he has a horn on his left temple.
"Hey, do you think this mountain looks familiar?" Liang Xi traced his fingers on the relief, "I think I have seen this mountain somewhere. This is not Tianling Mountain, but I must have seen it somewhere.
And that’s just in the recent past.”
After thinking for a while and unable to think of anything, Liang Xi simply looked at the second picture.
As soon as I took a look at Liang Xi in the second picture, I felt my scalp was going crazy and the hairs in my throat almost vomited out.
In the relief, the man with horns on his head holds a sword high. There are countless bones on the ground in front of him, and the skeletons are rising from the ground.
The person who carved this relief had excellent skills. The climbing skeletons were carved lifelike, and the arms protruding from the ground swayed like wheat fields in the wind, as if they were alive.
"How disgusting. Does he have the ability to resurrect the dead?" Liang Xi felt a chill in her back. Thinking of the bones embedded in the cliff outside the cave, she couldn't help but glance at the coffin behind her.
In the third picture, the horned man led his army of corpses to fight everywhere, and all the cities they visited were slaughtered, and corpses were scattered everywhere.
Due to the superb level of carving, it was as if those slaughtered cities really appeared in front of Liang Xi, making his hands and feet feel cold.
"It's so cruel. Who is he?" Liang Xi hugged the little fox and walked around while watching.
The next several consecutive pictures are all engraved with the cities that this person destroyed.
Liang Xi couldn't bear to watch the scene of piles of corpses.
By the ninth scene, the scene finally changed.
This horned man seemed to have met his opponent, and his army of bones stopped outside a city.
Liang Xi looked towards the city and rubbed her eyes in disbelief: "Yangdu City? I must have seen it wrong!"
The little fox's reaction was completely different from Liang Xi's.
It seemed to have thought of something, and there was excitement in its eyes.
Liang Xi shook her head and continued reading, only then did she understand what happened.
It turned out that a group of cultivators had gathered in this city called Yangdu City. There were a large number of people, and they seemed to be going to fight this horned man to the death.
"It seems that this person was very strong at that time. So many people couldn't beat him." Liang Xi couldn't help but sigh when she saw the eleventh picture.
Most of the cultivators on the relief were fighting with the corpses. These cultivators should not be very strong, but those cultivators with higher levels at that time were fighting with this horned man.
However, this man with horns wielded a long sword, and he didn't lose at all.
"One against a hundred, it's really strong. If I could be that strong, I could protect you, and Xian'er, I could protect everyone." Liang Xi touched the little fox's ears and looked at it with envy.
The relief on the sculpture looks like a man who becomes more and more courageous as he fights.
But in the next picture, the situation changed drastically.
Just when the man with the horns was about to gain the upper hand, a man with flying long hair suddenly appeared on the side of the cultivators.
Liang Xi looked carefully and saw that the face of the person who had just arrived could not be seen clearly, but he must be very strong, because the horned man who was unharmed just now was now holding his lower abdomen, and it seemed that he was seriously injured.
Liang Xi got closer and found that the right hand of the newly arrived person was reversed, holding something like a mirror in his palm, with a line of words engraved vertically next to it.
This was the first time words appeared in this series of paintings. Liang Xi whispered: "I want all the gods and Buddhas in the sky to disappear into thin air!"
As soon as she finished reading, before Liang Xi had time to sigh, she suddenly felt the whole body of the little fox in her arms tremble, and she was so excited that her whole body trembled.
