The mysterious black air that spread rapidly from a distance was immediately attracted by the strong suction in the bead, and swarmed into the bead dozens of meters away.
As time goes by, as the beads absorb more and more black air, some of the beads will gradually turn black. At this time, the old magic stick will move the bead string in his hand extremely quickly and replace it with another one.
The beads continued to pull and absorb the diffuse black air.
This string of beads seems to have endless swallowing power. The seemingly endless black energy has gradually become thinner due to the pull of the beads.
Ten minutes later, the black mist billowing in the distance was completely swallowed up by the string of beads, but the beads on the string were also rendered pure black, and pitted spots began to appear on the surface of the beads.
The old magic stick sighed softly, glanced at Zhu Jiu and other three outsiders, and said:
"My wind-accumulating bead has been destroyed like this. Alas, this black mist is a layer of mist that appears every time the sacred mountain is opened. It contains a large amount of death and corrosive power. Any living thing that comes into contact with it will only last for an hour or three.
It will turn into pus. When our ancestors first entered the sacred mountain, they suffered heavy losses when encountering this dark fog barrier. But after so many years of thinking, we have already thought of a solution, which is to refine an inner independent space, and
A treasure with the power to control the wind, used to swallow the fog barrier."
When the old guy talked about the method of cracking it, he looked a little proud, and then continued:
"This string of wind beads will be corroded and cracked in about three or four days, and these fog barriers will reappear by then, but by then we should have ended our trip to the ancient sacred mountain. It's a pity. If there were enough
Use the materials to refine a sturdy and corrosion-resistant treasure. You can store these fog barriers and release them when you encounter enemies. It is also a sharp weapon."
Zhu Jiu curled his lips slightly, this old guy was always thinking about how to trick people, so he had to be careful.
Then the group of people began to explore deeply in the cave at the belly of the mountain. This time, Zhu Jiu finally got rid of his bad luck by drawing lots, and it was the turn of the woman named Wu of the couple to explore the way.
There is endless darkness in the cave, and there are dangers everywhere as you advance, and you will encounter inexplicable emergencies from time to time.
Whenever danger is encountered, the ghost warriors are responsible for resisting it, and several ghost elders such as Lao Shengun show amazing strength.
Even so, the ghost warriors began to suffer casualties, and two hours later six ghost warriors were killed one after another.
In another day, nearly twenty ghost warriors from this team died, and nearly half of them died. The dead bodies were cast by several elders themselves, and they were condensed into ghost beads within a few seconds and put away.
The process is extremely simple and not as complicated as the last time Zhu Jiu saw it.
Even with such heavy casualties, of course there were gains. Not only did everyone penetrate a considerable distance into the mountain, but they also obtained many rare and unique items during the process.
Zhu Jiu and other three people took turns to go forward to detect, and they also experienced a lot of dangers. All three of them had injuries of varying severity. The woman was seriously injured, and her fighting ability was slightly affected, but her movements were not hindered.
At this time, everyone entered a long and narrow corridor, and it was Zhu Jiu's turn to look forward. A stone wall appeared in the darkness ahead, blocking the way.
Several elders from the ghost clan came forward to check. One of the elders seemed a little confused and said:
"We have tried several forked roads in succession, but there is no way out. This is a bit weird!"
The old magic stick frowned and said in deep thought:
"Then let the Pathfinder Rat out and give it a try!"
An elder behind him responded, stepped forward quickly, and asked:
"This Pathfinder Rat can only use its magical power once a month. Great Elder, are you sure you want to use it now?"
Seeing the old magic stick nodding, the elder of the ghost tribe stopped talking. A dim light flashed beside him, and a half-meter-sized rat-like monster appeared, with a faint blue light emitting from its small eyes, blinking non-stop.
The elder who released it reached out and took out a fist-sized crystal that looked like a ruby, possessed it and fed it to the big rat.
The mouse swallowed the crystal in several mouthfuls, then raised its head and sniffed around. Suddenly it started chirping, and with each chirp, a mysterious light ball the size of a fingernail would erupt from its mouth.
These light groups fell to the ground and turned into a small mouse composed of light. It was only less than the size of a palm and was bright red, the same color as the crystals it had swallowed previously.
After these little light mice appeared, they ran in different directions one after another. Some actually penetrated into the wall, which looked very magical.
Ten minutes later, the mother rat, which had been lying motionless on the ground after releasing the little mouse, started chirping again and again. The elder who raised it frowned slightly and reported to the old magician:
"The pathfinder mouse couldn't find the way forward in this cave. However, after it used its magical power, only the direction of the wall in front of it had no detection feedback, which was a bit strange. The other directions have been determined to have no way out."
After the elder finished speaking, he put the mother rat away again. Zhu Jiu was standing aside and marveling. There was also a similar Yin Division Pathfinder Beast in the Yin Code. Zhu Jiu was ready to find an opportunity to get it out for fun to see how the Yin Division Pathfinder Beast and this big one were.
What's the difference between mice?
After receiving the report, the old magic stick stared closely at the stone wall blocking the road ahead, stepped forward to check it carefully, then walked back and said in a deep voice:
"It's time to cast the magic that summons the ghost king to possess you."
The expressions of several ghost clan elders behind him changed slightly, and they looked a little hesitant. They each looked at each other, but in the end they said nothing. They selected a ghost clan warrior from behind who volunteered to accept the technique of possession.
There was a hint of fanaticism and excitement in the warrior's expression, and he was not afraid of the ritual of sacrificing himself to the Ghost King. However, the other warriors looked at him with a somewhat sad look. This secret technique caused great harm to the person who was cast, and the light
Otherwise, they will lose their combat effectiveness for several months, or in worst case, they will be killed directly.
Then several elders of the ghost tribe personally cast spells, reciting mysterious ghost dialects, and kept using various secret techniques. Finally, the old magic stick personally took action and sacrificed a ghost knotted by the corpse of a ghost warrior.
beads.
This bead exuded an extremely strong cold aura, slowly spinning above the heads of the selected warriors. Accompanied by the deep shouts of several elders, the bead suddenly burst open, and a thick black air flow sprang out from it.
It disappeared into the warrior's body in a flash.
The warrior's spirit was suddenly shaken, his eyes glowed red, and a meter long light appeared in front of him, but then the light tended to dim again.
The old magic stick and the other elders looked at each other and said solemnly:
"A ghost bead in the heart of this mountain can't summon the spirit of the ghost king's consciousness to come, huh!"
After saying that, he took out a ghost bead again. The next steps made several ghost clan elders and even many ghost clan warriors scattered around change their expressions. It actually took six ghost beads in succession before he finally successfully summoned the ghost bead.
A trace of ghost consciousness descended from the Ghost King.
This meant that after the summoning ceremony, the warrior would have to dedicate all his energy to feed the Ghost King, and he would die without a soul.
At this time, the figure of the warrior who was cast by the spell suddenly expanded greatly. The strong body that was already more than three meters tall doubled in the blink of an eye and became more than six meters. However, the entire body had completely lost its entity and appeared as a huge black mist in the shape of a human.
In this state, two thick bloody lights lit up at the eyes, and two curved horns faintly appeared on the top of the head.
At the same time, there was a roar like a god and a demon in the void. The sound cut through the endless obstacles of time and space and sounded clearly in everyone's ears, even deep in the soul.
The powerful consciousness Zhu Jiu sensed during the ritual of sacrificing the corpses of ghost warriors came again, and this time the consciousness was several times stronger than the last time.
Zhu Jiu and the other two men and women who were both outsiders had their faces changed drastically, and they were suffering from the extremely powerful pressure of the ghost king's consciousness.
At this time, the powerful ghost king's consciousness, that is, two bloody red lights in the eyes of a tall mist-shaped body that was more than six meters tall, struck the wall in front of him like two bloody lightning bolts.
The wall suddenly rippled like water ripples. It seemed that there was something wrong with the wall blocking the road.
What made Zhu Jiu even more unexpected was that the Gate of the Underworld on the Consciousness Sea Talisman was abnormal due to the advent of the ghost king's consciousness.
In fact, after watching the last ghost king's consciousness coming ceremony on the way to the ghost tribe, Zhu Jiu discovered that the surface of the Gate of the Underworld seemed to be different, with an extra layer of mysterious black energy. At this time, it was this wisp of black energy.
