Volume Three, Battle of the Sea Clan, Chapter 423, Stone Forest Altar
When other people saw this situation, they couldn't help but feel scared.
Even though this true elixir realm expert was seriously injured, he was able to exhaust the mana of an evil beast in the middle stage of crystallization and kill it easily.
And from beginning to end, that evil beast never even touched its sleeves.
If it was true as Lan Xi said before, instead of taking action, the consequences could be imagined.
In this way, everyone took care of the remains of the two crystal evil beasts and divided them up, and then immediately continued on the road.
However, because many people had been killed in the previous battle, the atmosphere in the team naturally became more and more depressing.
A few more days passed.
Seeing that the spiritual liquid in the gourd was almost exhausted, everyone finally walked out of the endless desert under the leadership of Lan Xi.
Without the intrusion of those cold winds, everyone naturally began to take off again, flying at low altitude and rushing on their way.
After passing through a small rare plain with unknown low shrubs and a miasma-filled swamp, everyone entered a gray hilly area and stopped in front of a dark mountain peak not far away.
steps.
The mountain peak is not too high, about 700 to 800 feet. It is completely dark and surrounded by patches of gray-white mist, making the mountain looming and giving people a strange feeling.
At this moment, the disk in Lan Xi's hand at the front suddenly made a low buzzing sound and started to flash slightly.
When Lan Xi saw this, he immediately lowered his head and took a closer look, then announced with great joy:
"I finally found another node! If I guessed correctly, the location of this node should be behind this mountain peak."
Then, he jumped into the air and flew forward impatiently.
Others had already seen the strangeness of the disc in his hand. Most of them had some speculations in their minds. After getting confirmation from Lan Xi, they were naturally overjoyed and flew over one after another.
But when the Siren Emperor saw this situation, he suddenly lowered his head and glanced at the unconscious Jialan in his arms. He frowned slightly and said nothing, but as soon as blue light appeared around him, he also followed him slowly.
Liu Ming looked at the black mountain peaks in the distance, but his pupils couldn't help but shrink.
For some reason, the moment he saw this mountain, an inexplicable uneasiness suddenly emerged in his heart.
However, when everyone else was already moving forward, Liu Ming only hesitated for a moment and followed them bravely.
After all, in such a dangerous place, it would be too unrealistic to travel alone.
But unknowingly, he quietly moved from the middle of the team to the back. At the same time, his lips moved silently a few times.
Xin Yuan, who was also flying in the middle of the team, suddenly heard Liu Ming's voice transmission in his ears. After his body froze for a moment, he continued to move forward as if nothing had happened, but his speed slowed down a bit unknowingly.
Not long after, he fell into the group of people at the back.
However, the Siren Emperor turned around after a moment, glanced at Liu Ming intentionally or unintentionally, and continued to move forward with an expressionless face.
Liu Ming's heart trembled!
Judging from the unfathomable strength of the Siren Emperor, it is not necessarily impossible to say that there is a way to detect his previous sound transmission.
He was thinking this in his mind, but he still didn't show any signs of change on the surface. He just silently flew side by side with Xin Yuan behind the team.
Half an hour later, everyone finally bypassed the previous black mountain peak and arrived at an open flat land behind the mountain peak.
As far as the eye can see in front, there is a faint forest of tall gray-white rocks. Looking from a distance, it seems that the end cannot be seen at a glance.
When Liu Ming saw these stone pillars, he couldn't help but feel slightly startled.
This stone forest actually gave him a vague feeling of familiarity, reminding him of the location of the Yuan Demon Sect in Yunchuan Continent.
The sect of Yuan Mo Sect is also located in a similar large stone forest and some strange mist floating in the dark.
It's just that the sect's stone forest is all made up of huge stone pillars with many black spiritual inscriptions engraved on them, and the mist emerges from these spiritual inscriptions.
The stone forest here is just some tall and irregular rocks, with no signs of man-made changes at all.
But even so, it made Liu Ming feel even more uncomfortable.
But at this moment, Lan Xi stopped in front of the stone forest. After looking down at the disc in his hand, he pointed in the direction of the stone forest without hesitation and said with certainty:
"The node we are looking for is somewhere ahead. As for the exact location, we should know it after we enter."
As soon as he finished speaking, he took the lead and flew away in the direction of the stone forest.
The other mine slaves were excited and followed closely.
When Liu Ming flew into the stone forest, with a flash of his eyes, he quietly released a ray of spiritual power. As a result, he found that the stone pillars seemed to be naturally formed and chaotic. There seemed to be no rules or anything strange about them.
This made him feel a little relieved, and he and Xin Yuan followed the others without saying a word.
As a result, after a meal, everyone came to an open space in the stone forest, and there stood a tall, square altar, twenty or thirty feet high, with a thick layer of
The dust seems to have been here for who knows how long.
In the center of the altar, there stood a dark stone tablet with vague black and purple spiritual patterns on it, but it looked very blurry.
"This is how the same thing?"
"How could there be such a weird thing here?"
Naturally, some people were shocked when they saw what they saw in front of them, and couldn't help but question Lan Xi.
"Hmph, how do I know! This is my first time here, maybe it's just a coincidence. But I'm sure that the other node is above the altar." Lan Xi shrugged and denied it.
Then, he pointed the disc in his hand at the top of the altar, made a seal with one hand, and a white light flashed into the disc.
Immediately, runes appeared on the surface of the disk, and after a tremor, a white beam of light shot out, and disappeared into the void above the stone tablet in a flash.
A "pop" sound!
With the violent spatial fluctuations in the void, a hazy white vortex was immediately visible, but after a blur, it turned into a curtain of condensed light.
Sure enough, it is a node.
"According to my experience, this layer of nodes has become very fragile due to its long history. At this time, you don't need to save mana, just attack with all your strength, the exit is right in front of you!" Lan Xi said with a solemn expression, and then spoke.
With a wave of his hand, he signaled everyone to start attacking.
After the mine slaves saw the white vortex that had just appeared in the void and clearly felt the spatial fluctuations emanating from it, they naturally no longer had any doubts about Lan Xi's words.
But when they were overjoyed, everyone mobilized all their magic power and used various spiritual weapons and secret techniques. There was a fierce attack on this point.
For a moment, the light on the field flashed, the rumbling sound was deafening, and the light of various magic blades disappeared into the light curtain, causing a burst of crystal light to flow on the surface.
However, while others were struggling to attack, there were still a few who did not take action!
In addition to Liu Ming and Xin Yuan standing at the back of the crowd, the third person was the Golden Scale woman named "Zhi Ming".
The fourth person who didn't take action was naturally the Siren Emperor holding Jialan!
Except for a slight twitch of eyebrows when he first saw the ancient altar, he stood where he was and didn't move at all.
Liu Ming looked at the familiar black and purple spiritual patterns on the stone tablet, but his eyes flickered.
Seeing this, Lan Xi's face darkened, and after slowly scanning the four people, his eyes finally stopped at the girl from the Golden Scale Tribe, and asked coldly:
"Zhi Ming, why haven't you taken action? Don't you want to go out?"
The Sea Clan girl who originally seemed to be very respectful to him looked uncertain for a while after hearing this. After looking at Liu Ming and Xinyuan who had also not taken action, as well as the Siren Queen not far away, she suddenly sneered.
He spoke loudly and said:
"Take action? Do you think that after we use up all our mana, you can easily kill us and then sacrifice them all?"
Her voice was not loud, and she was almost drowned out by the crowd's attacks, but when she heard it, it was like thunder in the ears of other mine slaves.
When everyone who was taking action was shocked, they all stopped their actions in unison, and looked at Lan Xi with a "swish", and their eyes were naturally full of surprise.
"What sacrifice? What are you talking about? Maybe you don't want to leave this place." Lan Xi's expression did not change and she just said lightly.
"Humph, at this point, you still want to deceive me. Do you really think that no one knows about secretly building that altar in the secret cave? I have seen this altar with my own eyes. Compared with this one here
, except that it is much smaller and has an extra stone tablet on it, the other styles are obviously the same." Upon hearing this, the girl from the Golden Scale Tribe said with a sarcastic expression.
After hearing this, Lan Xi's face changed slightly for the first time, but before he could say anything else, the Siren Emperor, who had been silent next to him, suddenly spoke:
"Lan Xi, call that thing out. Although my power is greatly reduced now, I can still clearly sense its existence."
As soon as he finished speaking, the young man in white robe suddenly looked down the altar.
Almost at the same time, the seemingly solid ground near the altar suddenly became as soft as sand, and with a violent tremor, there was a sudden "boom", and a huge collapse appeared with the altar as the center.
The deep pit comes.
But the altar itself still stands firmly in place.
Several of the mine slaves who were closer to the front were startled, and they immediately stepped back and retreated.
But at this moment, there was a "chichi" sound!
A flash of black light!
Countless black threads suddenly shot out from the depths of the ground, piercing through the bodies of these mining slaves like lightning.
Suddenly, several shrill screams were heard, and the mine slaves immediately turned over and fell to the ground.
