Just as we were looking at the coffin in a daze, the demon king thorn deer shrank in size and followed me next to me suddenly began to become restless. I quickly leaned down and touched its back and asked: "What's wrong?"
When I asked it, I also looked around and found nothing wrong. After I comforted it, the Demon King Thorn Deer became a little calmer, but it still raised its little head.
His head roared "hissing" at the position of the coffin.
I couldn't help but feel cold in my heart. Could something be coming out of that coffin?
When I looked in the direction of the coffin, I reminded my companions to be careful. But as soon as I said the word "be careful" and before I could finish the word "heart", a "whoosh" sound suddenly came from above our heads.
.
That's the sound of the wind.
As the wind passed by, a ball of sand suddenly formed another eggshell-shaped dome on the top of the pit where we were.
The sand and stone contain a strong layer of power, and the dome is also a barrier. We are trapped in this deep pit, and at this time, this deep pit is somewhat like a tomb.
The eggshell-shaped dome looks similar to a tomb from the outside. What is going on? Is it the prophet in the coffin who wants to bury us with him?
"Buzz!"
At this time, the coffin erupted with a strong power of state of mind. All of us were dizzy. The weakest Xiao Xiang even fainted. Although Zhang Rui only had the strength to transcend the tribulation stage, he
But he just stumbled a bit, and then he was fine in an instant.
Our other companions were all similar to Zhang Rui, but staggered slightly.
After we all stood firm, Hu Jiashu quickly waved the apricot-yellow flag, and several vines grew on the edge of the pit, and then quickly formed one after another strange vines in the shape of a lampstand.
And the vine quickly bloomed purple flowers and produced blue fruits.
After the blue fruits grew up, those fruits suddenly lit up like lamps. In an instant, hundreds of blue fruits lit up at the same time, and the deep pit also turned from dark to bright.
I looked at Hu Jiashu and said, "This move of yours is quite beautiful."
Hu Jiashu said: "It's just a little trick, it's just lighting, it has no use in actual combat!"
I didn’t talk to Hu Jiashu about these shiny vines anymore, but turned my attention to the coffin again.
"Kakaka..."
The lid of the coffin suddenly moved, and the contents of the coffin seemed to be coming out.
Moreover, that thing also carried a strong murderous aura, and when we saw it, we all broke into cold sweats.
If that coffin is really a prophet of mankind, then our situation will be dire. He is a person who single-handedly changed the status of mankind in the prehistoric era. No matter what, we cannot be his opponents.
No wonder the Hidden Saint ran so fast, he probably had already figured that things would develop like this!
Thinking of this, I felt like I was being plotted by the Hidden Saint. As expected, as Nangong Fan said, it would be better not to cooperate with the Hidden Saint in the future. He is too cunning.
"Kakaka..."
After a few more noises, the lid of the coffin had been pushed open halfway, and a person slowly sat up inside. To be precise, it was a white bone that sat up. The white bone was shining with blue light. No, that light was white.
Yes, what I saw was blue because it was illuminated blue by the blue lights of the vine fruits around me.
After it sat up, it even slowly stretched its waist.
"Kakakaka..."
A series of sounds of bone movement came out.
On my side, I quickly used the power of my mind to explore, and found that its body was protected by a layer of barrier. I couldn't feel how strong it was at all.
The white bones stretched and slowly turned their heads to us and said: "I have been sleeping for so many years, and I finally woke up. Human beings, you are all human beings, very good, haha..."
The voice of the skeleton was very old, it was a voice that had accumulated for hundreds of years, and it sounded as strong as a huge mountain.
I swallowed and said, "Who are you? The prophet of mankind in the prehistoric period?"
The white bones stood up from the coffin with a rattling sound. It was about two meters tall and had a thick frame. He was not wearing any clothes.
Was the prophet buried naked? Or was it that the clothes he wore had rotted away?
When I was thinking this, Remnant Soul of the Snake King said: "It's already this time, do you still have the mind to think about whether you are wearing clothes or not?"
I quickly regained my composure.
Nangong Fancong was already close to me at this time, and the white wolf Chai Min directly transformed into the shape of a white wolf, ready to fight at any time.
Zhang Rui stood next to Hu Jiashu and took care of Xiao Yan, but he was also ready for a battle.
Seeing our actions, the white skull continued: "Prophet, no one has called me this name for a long time. Yes, I am the prophet, a human prophet with an immortal soul!"
Immortal soul?
I frowned and asked, "You are the prophet of mankind, you should be able to help us, right?"
Before I could speak, the bones said again: "I didn't want to kill you, but you stole something from me. As long as you return that thing to me, I will spare your life. If you don't return it, I will spare your life."
If so, I will let you die without a burial place!"
Are we stealing from him?
Are you talking about the one-eyed snake?
I asked the Bone Prophet if he was.
He shook his head directly and said: "That little snake is nothing. What I'm talking about is, someone of you just broke my barrier and stole something from me!"
I immediately understood that it was not us who stole the things, but the Hidden Saint just now. No wonder he said there was no need to open the coffin. It turned out that he had already stolen the things. No wonder he left in such a hurry. Firstly, he was afraid of being retaliated by the prophet.
, and secondly, they are afraid that we will find out.
But what exactly did he steal?
This misunderstanding has become serious.
I looked at the bones and knew first: "Senior, you are so strong, you should easily be able to see whether we have your things on us. It is not us who steal your things, and we juniors have not broken the Shen Shen."
The ability of the coffin barrier was stolen by a demon clan member..."
The Bone Prophet interrupted me and said: "No matter who it is, I can feel that you are a team and you are in a cooperative relationship, right?"
It's over now, we can't explain it clearly.
I continued: "We have also been deceived. Senior, you are a prophet, an extremely wise prophet. You have also seen our current situation. The evil man's conspiracy must not be hidden from you?"
I had no choice but to try the flattery method.
My intuition tells me that we cannot fight against the prophet no matter what, otherwise we will die without any chance of survival.
After a while, the prophet "hummed", and several white lights emitted from his body, falling directly on me and each of my companions, and then a white ring-shaped rune bracelet appeared on our wrists.
"ah!"
Then each of us let out a scream, and even Xiao Yan, who had fallen asleep before, was awakened by the pain.
Our wrists hurt as if they were being burned by flames, and then the strange white runes left a fiery red mark on our wrists.
The Bone Prophet said: "I will give you seven years. If you can't find my things, then I will use the talisman I just gave you to kill you."
After that, the prophet returned to the coffin, then slowly lay down in it, and the lid of the coffin also clicked together.
After the Bone Prophet lay back in the coffin, the red rune marks on our wrists also disappeared, and our wrists returned to their original state.
"boom!"
At this moment, the eggshell-shaped dome made of sand and stones above our heads shattered with an explosion, and countless sand and stones fell down into the deep pit.
We all used Taoist magic to resist it, but we found that it was just an ordinary falling rock, which was easy to deal with.
Looking at the coffin in front of me, everything just seemed like a dream.
Touching our wrist again, the pain that has not disappeared tells us that it is not a dream, and that we have really been marked by the Bone Prophet.
I quickly asked the Cursed Chong if this was a curse and if it could give us a solution.
The curse insect said: "That is not a curse, it is a formation, a formation that can burn out your souls at any time, and the person who controls that formation is the Bone Prophet in the coffin!"
It seems that there is nothing the Cursed Insect can do to help us.
At this time, Hu Jiashu asked me: "Chen Yu, what should I do next?"
I said: "Let's take the coffin back to Dragon City first and see if my two masters can help us unlock the talisman array on our wrists."
"If there is really no other way, we can only wait until we reach the upper world to find that Agu to ask for something. I really didn't expect that we would be tricked by that old guy!"
When I said this, the remnant soul of the Snake King sighed, knowing that the conflict between us and the Hidden Saint has become somewhat intensified.
This is not what it wants to see.
Next, we cleaned up briefly, and I made the Demon King Thorn Deer grow bigger, then put the sarcophagus on its back and carried it back to Dragon City.
Leaving the Gannan area, we headed towards Dragon City at full speed. After arriving at Dragon City, we were escorted by several giant dragons who came to pick us up and flew directly to Long Lake. My Master Li and Master Xu were already waiting for me there.
.
This journey was relatively smooth, and the Bone Prophet did not come out to cause trouble, nor did he resist us bringing the coffin.
Just when I was wondering what was going on, the Cursing Insect said: "The Bone Prophet seems to be surrounded by the laws of Heaven in the Great Desolation Period, so it conflicts with the current laws of Heaven. If it stays outside for a long time, it will be affected by the current laws of Heaven."
The rules of heaven were crushed into pieces, and its soul was scattered, so it could only hide in the sarcophagus with the barrier seal. According to my speculation about its power, the next time it comes out will be exactly seven years later."
No wonder it gave us seven years, that is when it will come out next time.
But this finally confirmed my intuition. Not only were we in trouble, we were also in big trouble.
Next, it depends on whether my two masters can help us and whether they are willing to help us.
