Chapter 533 The Capital of the Giant Gods Families and the Altar of Life
In the temple of the Cave of Ten Thousand Snakes.
In front of the palace gate.
The girl holding the lamp showed a surprised expression and stared blankly at the center of the hall.
I saw that the egg standing in the hall was completely cracked, and a big snake slowly emerged from it. The golden scales flickered and refracted under the light, making it look a bit dazzling.
The Son of Snakes completed his first reincarnation.
This big snake has just resurrected and is only a dozen meters long, far less than the previous behemoth of several hundred meters.
But its aura is even more powerful than before.
The divine blood has become thicker, but the road to power needs to be walked again.
The big snake also noticed the fire and turned to look at the girl.
The pair of eyes at the end of the afterglow of the lights were watching Yingying seriously.
"Shuashua~"
The big snake walked forward. The intimidation power this powerful life companion brought to ordinary life forms was unimaginable to ordinary people, but Firefly still stood there and did not move, just looking up at the other party quietly.
She seemed to firmly believe that the big snake would not hurt her.
Finally, the big snake came to Firefly, lowered his head and smelled the breath on Firefly's body, and at this time, the mark of ten thousand snakes on Firefly's arm lit up slightly.
The Son of Snakes did not attack her. Instead, he stretched out his snake letter and licked the girl.
The girl was not afraid, but instead put down the lamp in her hand and stepped forward to greet him.
She was excited and happily stroking the big snake.
"Topa!"
"I knew you would never forget it, because not even the will and memory of the gods from ancient times could overwhelm you."
"You will definitely remember it, for sure..."
The big snake remained motionless, just watching the cheering hotaru quietly.
Early the next morning.
The underground snakemen distinguish time based on changes in the brightness of fluorescent plants, but recently all the fluorescent plants in the cave no longer emit light, so Yingying can only rely on feeling.
Yingying leaned forward, carrying a large package behind her back, and stood at the exit of the temple with an expectant look.
She was carrying the storage items exchanged from Silver, which were also filled to the brim. Even the big snake had several large boxes tied to it.
Yingying grabbed the edge of the package, weighed it a few times, and then left along the downhill slope.
After walking a certain distance, she discovered something. She turned her head and shouted towards the big snake.
"lets go!"
"Topa!"
At this time, the Son of Ten Thousand Snakes slipped down from the height of the temple.
The two of them left the City of Divine Relics together and came to the passage in the Giant Vine Cave opened by Yin.
Not long after this, the place was occupied by a group of basilisks again, but the Son of Ten Thousand Snakes just roared, and those basilisks that were difficult to kill died one after another.
When they died, they finally transformed from basilisks into snake-men, and then rotted away in an instant.
Yingying stepped forward and buried the bones under the rubble one after another.
Then continue on your way.
In another cave.
"Dang Dang Dang..."
A city in the distance rang a bell, and someone in the city sensed the arrival of the Son of Snakes...
The terrifying aura and coercion made everyone feel uneasy.
But when everyone in the city was preparing for the attack, Yingying came to the city and lit the lamp in her hand.
"it's me!"
The people on the city wall exclaimed. They recognized the girl below: "It's Yingying."
Firefly came to a city that she had visited before. The person in charge of this city also had the idea of leaving the underground cave, and he was also a good person.
Firefly is preparing to use him to launch her plan.
However, the residents in the city were very afraid of the Sons of Ten Thousand Snakes brought by Firefly.
"what is that?"
"Such a big basilisk?"
"Why doesn't it attack you?"
Firefly told the people in the city: "Toppa is a direct descendant and heir of the Mother of All Snakes. He followed me back from the City of Divine Relics. He is not a basilisk."
Once again, there was a wave of exclamations and heated discussions in the city.
However, it didn't take long before they let Yingying in. It must have been the city lord who gave the order.
People in the city not only remember Hotaru, but also Gin.
Firefly took the Son of Ten Thousand Snakes into the city. Someone who knew her on the road asked, "Firefly, where is the silent person who came with you before?"
Hotaru told everyone: "Gin went where she wanted to go."
Some people looked at the Son of Ten Thousand Snakes in horror: "Is this the descendant of the Mother of Ten Thousand Snakes?"
Yingying nodded: "He used to be the Priest of Ten Thousand Snakes in the City of Divine Relics. He was a very great person."
Entering a building, someone was waiting for Hotaru inside.
Hotaru immediately said after meeting the lord of this city: "I want to go to the ground."
The city lord nodded: "I've seen it before."
He knew that Yin and Ying's destination was the City of Divine Relics, and those who could reach there and come back were no longer ordinary people, so he was willing to believe that what Yin and Ying brought was the real Son of Ten Thousand Snakes.
Firefly said, "It's different from before. This time I want to take everyone with me to the ground."
The city lord's expression was different this time: "Everyone?"
He asked Yingying extremely seriously: "Can you do it?"
Firefly looked at the Son of Ten Thousand Snakes: "I may not be able to do it, but together with Topa and all of us working together, we can definitely do it."
The city lord had wanted to leave a long time ago, but he just didn't know how to leave.
At this moment, he felt that the opportunity might have arrived.
Although lightless nights are the best days to leave, there are many other entrances and exits to the upper level recorded in the records, and these entrances have also been opened due to lightless nights.
However, Hotaru still sent people to find the entrance through which Yin entered the second floor.
Because that's where she can find the location of the map Silver gave her more accurately.
Leaving the second underground level is only the first step. Only by traveling through the entire earth maze can you truly return to the ground.
The first group of subterranean snakemen first established an outpost there.
They built a thick rope ladder at the vertical entrance, and the snake man could easily climb up by grabbing it and wrapping his tail around it.
There are also many resting places set up along the way to allow snake people to crawl more easily...
The city lord formed a new caravan and started a new underground adventure.
These caravans traveled between villages and towns at the risk of death, gathering more underground snake people and telling them their plans to leave the underground.
Tell them that the Mother of Snakes has sent her children.
And the new generation of snake priests will take everyone to the surface.
Some people were doubtful at first, but when Firefly led the Sons of Ten Thousand Snakes to clean up all the basilisks along the way and released their spirits, everyone recognized the identity of Yingying's Priest of Ten Thousand Snakes.
What's more important is that the Son of Ten Thousand Snakes can reduce, weaken, or even directly erase the alienation of the underground snake people.
This ability immediately made the underground snake people regard Yingying as the spokesperson of the gods.
Suddenly, the whole underground became very hot.
All the towns and villages were in action, and all the underground snake people were working towards one goal.
Return to the earth again.
——
Endless darkness, caves and passages that never end.
Under such underground, there was a sound of rustling.
A group of snake men groped in the darkness,
Move forward step by step, looking for the way to the top.
"How about it?"
"Safety."
"I feel much more comfortable. There seems to be an entrance to the top. My breathing is much easier. What does this mean? It means there is air circulation."
"Listen to the sound, do you hear it?"
"What's that sound?"
"It seems like...wind?"
With Yingying's efforts, there is also the desire of all underground snake people to return to the surface world.
Now the snake people have basically moved to the edge of the fluorescent cave, living around the passages and outposts leaving the second underground level.
A large number of snake exploration teams were dispatched to find a passage to the ground.
Sometimes they hit a dead end and they record it.
Sometimes when they encounter danger, they will find ways to avoid it. If it is a necessary passage, they will find a way to solve it and open the passage.
Sometimes you will encounter an area where you cannot move forward. For example, the most common problem is, what should I do if there is no air?
They will bring a unique underground fluorescent moss, plant it in a sealed leather bag, and connect it to a special leather tube to breathe. This plant has some extraordinary properties and can survive for a long time and provide breath.
Along the way, they encountered various problems.
But they tried their best and tried every means to solve it.
Of course, there are also a large number of exploration teams who never come back.
that's all.
Firefly led the underground snakes to climb up toward the surface little by little from the depths of the ground.
But now they seem to be not far from the ground.
This exploration team held a map and made notes and marks along the way.
The members all carried a leather bag on their backs, and when they couldn't bear it, they released a leather tube, put it over their mouths and took a sip.
But as they walked, they discovered that there was no need to carry anything on their backs.
Because, a steady stream of fresh air was pouring in from the other side, and this discovery made them ecstatic.…
They had already foreseen something, the leading captain said loudly.
"quick!"
"faster."
They used tools to climb up a vertical passage.
After finally climbing up, I found myself in a cave.
They walked along the cave and gradually saw light. It was not the light emitted by fluorescent plants, but the light was golden.
"Did you see it?" A snake man pointed at the light breaking through the darkness in the distance.
"It's light!" Everyone's voice was trembling.
"Golden light." They rushed out frantically, and nothing could stop their yearning for that ray of light.
However, after they rushed out.
When they were bathed in the dazzling light, they immediately covered their eyes with their hands and exclaimed and shouted.
"It's so dazzling, I'm going to go blind."
"What's this?"
"too bright?"
The underground snake man suddenly rushed out of the darkness and walked towards the ground from the cave.
What they saw in their eyes was a world completely filled with white and light, just like the kingdom of heaven.
However, the light and white world is incompatible with them who have lived underground for a long time. They long for light, but their bodies have long forgotten what it feels like to bathe in the sun.
Their eyes no longer remember the feeling of looking directly into the sun.
They had to go back.
After a long time, they slowly and cautiously walked outside, covering their eyes with something.
They finally saw the outside world.
Green jungles and rolling mountains.
There is no obstruction in the sky, it is blue with patches of white clouds floating in it.
And a majestic star releases a dazzling light in the sky, illuminating the whole world.
After more than a thousand years, the first batch of underground snake people finally landed on the surface.
"This is……"
"The world above the ground?"
"There are forests everywhere and animals everywhere."
"That's the sun?"
Next, exits to the surface were discovered one after another.
In the end, Firefly chose the entrance to the Blue Copper Mountain where Yin first entered the earth labyrinth, and led a group of underground snakemen to the surface through this largest passage.
Yingying held the map of the giant island of Luhe that Yin gave her in her hand, lay on the Son of Ten Thousand Snakes, and looked at the words and lines on it with the help of the light.
According to the records on the map, the south belongs to Suinhor, the central region belongs to the Court of Ten Thousand Snakes, and the east has the Land of the Rising Sun and the Kingdom of Thunder.
To the northwest are two witch kingdoms, and to the northeast is the kingdom of yellow sand.
In addition, there are many forces between countries, city-states and territories, which also control one party.
There is only a blank space between the wasteland and the Fire Demon Swamp.
The place used to belong to the Starlight Ascetic Order, but the Starlight Ascetic Order no longer exists, and Yingying is planning to bring people to settle here.
Group after group of underground snakemen stepped onto the ground and stood densely outside the mine. They looked into the distance with great shock.
"A world without curses."
"It's the sun!"
As he talked, the underground snake man cried bitterly, lying on the ground and kowtowing continuously...
"We're back."
"We are finally back."
"God, we are finally back on earth."
Firefly also burst into tears and took out two gems from her clothes.
Those are the eyes of her sister Sika.
Yingying held it high and looked at the jungles and mountains in the distance, as if she wanted to let it take a look at this beautiful world.
"Sika!"
"We're really on the ground."
"Look, this place is really just like the one in the legend."
Under the sun, those eyes slowly flashed with light.
Then in the light, the sand gradually turned into a ball of ashes.
"Wow!"
Sister Ying's spirit also left the world.
Follow the light and float to the sky, to the dream world.
This group of underground snakemen who returned to the surface opened up a settlement near the Azurite Mountain, on the edge of the wasteland and the Fire Demon Swamp.
People cut down trees from the Fire Demon Swamp, moved stones from the foot of the wasteland, and built their new homes.
In her spare time, Yingying also led people to the other side of the wasteland.
Here, they saw the city in the distance.
"This is the city of people on the surface." Firefly pointed to the distance, her eyes filled with indescribable shock and longing.
"There are really people on the ground, a lot of people." The other underground snake people who followed just felt that the city was too big and there were too many people.
"Their city is so spectacular." The underground snake people are full of yearning.
"Their clothes are so beautiful. There are lights everywhere, and there are cars everywhere." Compared with these snake people on the surface, they are like a group of savages, they don't even have clothes, and their technology and inheritance have been separated for more than a thousand years.
Firefly turned around and talked to the others.
"It doesn't matter, we will also build our city on the ground and build our own country."
——
Three floors underground.
The sea of darkness.
"Gu~" the sound of bubbles.
"Wow~" The sound of water flowing.
Also, the subtle sounds made by underwater animals.
One sound after another passes through the ears, just like a pair of hands brushing the keys of the heart, forming darkness
The most beautiful song among them.
In the dark ocean, a figure as agile as a mermaid swam across.
The graceful figure passed by a huge aquatic animal that was not sure whether it was a fish or a lizard. As soon as the shadow of the large aquatic animal disappeared from the eyes, a group of long strips of luminous whitebait came from the depths below.
The luminous silver fish passed by her, illuminating her beautiful face and long crystal hair.
Her long squirming hair swayed, and she blinked.
Then he waved his arms vigorously and quickly passed under the wriggling tentacles of a giant snail life that was tens of meters long.
She swung her feet and followed the direction of the water gently.
It's quiet and lively here.
It's quiet because no one here can speak, and it's lively because there are more lives here than you can imagine.
The robe that Yin was originally wearing had fallen off at some point, because it was too damaged to put on, and because there was no need for clothes in this water world.
Yin kept diving underwater, looking for the entrance to the next level. She didn't know how long she had been swimming. She just felt that she had forgotten the feeling of walking...
She seemed to have really turned into a fish.
They live in water and are still swimming even when they are asleep.
She didn't know where the target was, she just knew it must be deeper.
"Deeper."
"It's even deeper."
"Go to the deepest part."
Along the way, she saw all kinds of strange beings, and all kinds of behemoths shuttled among them.
They have indescribably weird looks, some look like they are made up of various creatures, and some have organs on their bodies that definitely do not belong to them.
The deeper you go, the weirder the sights and life forms you see.
Those are definitely not life that can be born under normal circumstances, and the extraordinary sights they cause are definitely not something that can be seen on the ground or in ordinary oceans.
Gradually, she followed a large number of dark sea creatures and came to a brand new place.
it's here.
She saw a huge ravine and didn't know where it led.
The width of the ravine is at least tens of kilometers, and at least Yin's eyes that can see things freely in the darkness cannot see the edge.
The silver floats on the edge of the ravine, staring at the bottomless abyss below.
In this huge ravine, she saw a large number of strange creatures crawling out, which were aberrations affected by the power of the giant god or the altar of life.
"New ravine!"
"It's even deeper here."
Yin swung his slender thighs, made ripples with his hands, and got in, going deep along the terrifying dark trench.
It's like a tiny speck of dust swallowed up by a huge mouth.
It wasn't long after I entered.
"Buzz~"
Suddenly, a huge wave from the depths of the ravine washed Yin aside, and the violent current almost washed her back.
She pressed against the rock wall of the trench and saw boundless darkness coming from the depths.
It was a terrifying son of the earth in the form of a demonic insect. Its complete body could not be seen at close range, but it seemed incredibly large.
It is crawling upward from below the trench.
And once it appears, all things surrender.
All the creatures of the Dark Sea huddled together, either getting out of the way, or allowing themselves to be swallowed up.
Those powerful creatures that were terrifying to mortals became insignificant in front of it.
Go deeper.
Silver saw a giant squid that looked like it was wearing armor. It was the descendant of another giant god.
As soon as it appears, all life around it seems to be frozen, unable to move at all.
Not only was he physically frozen, but his will was also frozen.
With one breath, all the aquatic creatures for dozens of miles around turned into his food, even less than silver.
The point was eaten by him unintentionally, if the other party hadn't noticed it in the end.
Encountering such terrifying life forms one after another, Yin had no intention of stopping and instead accelerated forward.
Because she felt she was almost there.
We are about to reach the end point.
Finally, she swam to the end.
In the deepest part of the trench, Yin saw an unimaginable scene.
At this moment, Yin's eyes felt blank.
Even breathing and heartbeat were forgotten.
She opened her mouth wide, as if she wanted to speak in the water...
"That is……"
Then just spit out a bunch of bubbles.
Because she suddenly discovered that this was not a trench at all.
These are the eyes of something indescribably huge and indescribably great.
One, slightly opened giant eye.
And everything she had done before, the long journey deep into the depths of the ocean trench, was just going down the eyelids of her closed eyes.
When she reached the end, those eyes met each other.
At this moment.
The lowest level of the world carries the existence of the Sea of Darkness, and the great god who controls the water cycle of the entire Ruhe world is quietly watching her.
There was no emotion in those eyes.
Even when Yin floated above this eye, she didn't know whether this eye was looking at her, or looking at the world and the starry sky behind her.
But when Yin saw this eye, his calm mood suddenly collapsed.
Panic, despair, restlessness, and madness surged into my heart at the same time.
"ah!"
She let out a scream.
That sound was not only emanating from her body organs as a life species, which caused the life energy to set off strong water waves, but it was also shouted from the deepest part of her consciousness.
Then, her mind went blank and she was sucked in by those eyes.
Silver fell into the eyes that seemed to be made of water, without causing any waves, and finally entered a world that is absolutely impossible for ordinary people to enter.
When Yin came back to her senses, she found that she was already on the fourth level in the legend of the underground snake people.
She got up and looked around.
Underfoot is a carpet of green plants covering the ground, extending straight forward.
Yin sat on his knees with his hands on the ground.
She could feel that the plant carpet was alive.
Raising his head and looking into the distance, light comes into view; giant fluorescent vines grow one after another on the ground, lighting up the whole world.
The terrifying giant vines supporting the second floor are countless here.
Look to higher places.
You can see giant transparent jellyfish unfolding their canopies and floating in the sky, turning into a canopy.
Transparent tentacles hang down from a high place, bringing light drizzle and thunderous flashes while fluttering.
The fourth floor.
The capital of dependents.
Those who live here can get here.
Only the son of the giant god Ruh.
This is their capital and hometown.
There is no residence for the Titans on this continent, because the entire continent is where the Titans live.
However, giant gods usually cannot see mortals, just like humans cannot see the bacteria on their bodies.
So Yin came here, to the capital of dependents where the altar of life is located.
"L!"
Yin walked forward, being drenched in light rain all the way.
Across the boundless land of green vegetation, she saw the majestic and tall altar in the center of the family capital, with a strange bead enshrined on the altar.
"哐~"
The beads emit a strange light that surrounds the entire underground world and spreads into the distance.
All species of life thrive under that light, just like plants bathed in
Like the sun.
Yin had never seen it before, but the moment he saw it, he knew that it was the altar left by their creator, the Lord of Life, in mythology.
Yin came step by step from a distance and knelt under the altar.
She called God's name devoutly and respectfully, with her head on the ground.
"The Great Death Star of Ruch Titan."
"Your followers, your servants, your retinue."
"silver!"
"Come to see you!"
However, she didn't get a response.
Yin waited for a long time and finally raised his head.
She didn't understand why.
"great……"
She could only recite it again and began to pray sincerely to God again.
At this time, a large number of tree roots emerged from the gaps in the floor tiles.
These roots became entangled together and turned into another figure standing under the altar.
The figure turned its back to the altar of the Lord of Life and the distorted eye left by the Creator, slowly looked down at Yin, and then spoke.
