The light curtain emitting powerful fluctuations blocked the only exit of the stone house, and the bright runes on the surrounding walls also exuded a heart-stopping aura.
There is no doubt that this ancient formation was originally dormant, but when Shen Chen touched the white skeleton, it was suddenly activated.
However, while the two of them were panicked, they were also a little surprised.
This ancient formation is very powerful and intact, but after it was completely activated, it did not launch an offensive. Although the runes were glowing, it was unusually calm.
Could it be that this ancient formation was activated just to trap them?
This is not good news. If you are really trapped here, you will have to wait for death.
"drink!"
Tantai Wan Ning gave a sweet shout, flipped her wrist, and a chain of order that was thicker and brighter than before was released, trying to tear apart the light curtain at the door.
But this time, she failed to get what she wanted. The offensive, which was enough to easily kill a strong person in the Bone Forging Realm, only caused a slight ripple after touching the light curtain, and then calmed down again.
The girl's pretty face was a little frightened and angry, and she was about to take action, but at this moment, an old man's laughter sounded in the stone house.
"Haha, little girl, don't try too hard. This secret formation has the protective power of a strong person in the Tianyuan Realm. Although you are born with a divine body, you haven't grown up yet..."
The loud and high-pitched voice suddenly sounded in the stone house, frightening Shen Chen and the two of them. Apart from the two of them, there was no one else in the house. Could it be that they had seen a ghost?
"Hey! What kind of monster dares to surround us for no reason!" Tantai Wan Ning was angry, searching everywhere with her beautiful eyes, biting her silver teeth, feeling resentful in her heart.
That voice told the truth. She had tested it just now and found that the protective power of that light curtain was indeed beyond her current capabilities. This made the girl very angry.
Seeing Xiao Nizi being so confused, Shen Chen felt chilled. This time, they seemed to have really hit the wall. It was all their own fault. They got into trouble and deserved to suffer a big loss!
"Haha, look this way, it's not like I'm trying to make things difficult for you for no reason..." The voice came from the middle of the stone house. On top of the skull of the skeleton, a wisp of spiritual energy floated out and condensed in mid-air. A hunched figure of an old man.
The old man had a kind look on his face one moment, but the next moment he became stern and stared angrily at Shen Chen, saying: "Hmph! If this kid hadn't been greedy and arbitrarily touched my bones, how could the secret array be activated? After all, It can be regarded as your own fault, you can’t blame me!”
"Devil?"
The moment the old man's shadow condensed on the skeleton, Shen and Chen screamed, completely forgetting what the old man said later.
"Hmph! You two little guys must not taint me!"
When the old man suspended in the air heard the word "demon spirit", he blew his beard and glared angrily, and cursed: "Don't compare me with those monsters. Our Longyin Sect has always been incompatible with the Mingsha clan, even if we destroy ourselves. Soul, I will never become a demon."
"Then old sir, who are you?" Tantai Wan Ning said cautiously. Now she is trapped here. If she wants to get out, she may have to start with that phantom. The girl is very smart and calmed down her heart wall immediately.
I want to talk to the old man.
"Haha, don't worry, I am just a fragment of my soul now, with some will left behind during my lifetime. I am not a monster!"
Turning his eyes to the little girl who looked like a banished immortal, the old man's tone finally became kind again. He looked at Tantai Wan Ning and sighed: "I didn't expect that after falling for endless years, I could still see the talents of the ten holy bodies, and it was from ancient times.
A rare natural divine body. If our Longyin Sect could have had a peerless genius, perhaps it would not have withered away. Moreover, even after it withered, we would still be afraid that the demons from the Nether Demon Clan would come to us and have to declare themselves here..."
In the old man's sigh, there was a sense of powerlessness that was relatable to his own experience, full of vicissitudes of life and loneliness.
Later, the old man talked to himself and recalled many past events. At the same time, like a lonely old man who had found a soulmate, he began to talk about his past life.
From the old man's sad words, the two knew that the old man's name was Tianze, and he was the elder of a powerful sect called "Longyinmen" in ancient times. However, Longyinmen later fell into decline.
The disciples of the Longyin Sect were exterminated by the enemy, and the remaining elders of the Longyin Sect proclaimed themselves a mountain sect. They dug an underground city in the mountain range and kept a low profile, hoping that the younger generation would emerge as stunning talents and lead the Longyin Sect to the light of day again.
It's a pity that fate has its way, and miracles have not appeared. Hundreds of years have passed, and no outstanding figures have been born in Longyin Sect. After the last Su Lao unexpectedly died, the descendants with mediocre strength did not even have the ability to open the seal of the mountain gate.
In the end, he was at the end of his rope and was trapped alive in this giant underground city.
It was a past that was unbearable to look back on. There was always compassion in the old man's words, which made people feel sad. Who would have thought that the ancient city that was once regarded as the last barrier would become a wasteland after endless years.
The tomb house buries everything about that once powerful sect.
This is a great tragedy, an unknown tragedy in the ancient times of strife. No wonder the old man Tianze showed such complicated emotions after seeing Xiao Nizi’s unparalleled talent. That was countless years ago,
What the Longyin Sect was longing for, unexpectedly appeared after endless years, things and people have changed, and it does not belong to them...
"Old Mr. Tianze, I have offended you a moment ago, please forgive me!" Shen Chen listened quietly to the old man's words, shook his head, and quickly stepped forward to apologize.
Regardless of whether it is sincere or not, at least, you can no longer challenge this old guy. Even Xiao Nizi can't do anything about that light curtain. If you anger this old man, I am afraid that the two of you will be trapped alive without him taking action.
It's here.
Even though there may be strong men from the Luo Yun Sect coming to the rescue in the future, it is unbearable for the treasures in the lost tomb to be emptied by those outside.
Xiao Nizi is smart and smart, and Shen Chen is not stupid either. He knows that at this time, he should try his best to please the old man.
"Hmph! Do you really think that I can fool you?" When old man Tianze heard Shen Chen's voice, he immediately woke up from his daze. He looked at Shen Chen and asked coldly: "Boy, tell me honestly, you just wanted to take advantage of me. What’s the purpose of his remains?”
It was naturally impossible for Shen Chen to truthfully tell him that he wanted to use the bones to refine treasures, otherwise it would be strange for the old man to fight with him. He turned a corner and coughed dryly: "Ahem... I want to get some things in the future. The way to reach the level of 'jade bone' from bone marrow."
"Jade bone level? Arrogant!" Old Man Tianze glanced sideways at Shen Chen and cursed disdainfully, but no one noticed that when Shen Chen said those things insincerely, a flash of light flashed in the old man's eyes. Inexplicably excited.
Shen Chen didn't notice that. Hearing that the old guy despised him so much, he could bear it. Immediately, the last scruples in his heart were thrown away.
"Old guy, how could I be so arrogant? Aren't you the one who has reached the pinnacle of golden bone? What are you trying to do? If you can't do something, why do you know that I don't have that ability?" Shen Chen cursed and glared at the old man Tianze, neither humble nor arrogant.
If your peers look down on you, you can laugh at their ignorance, but for people who have lived to this age to despise themselves like this, that is naked contempt.
Shen Chen has never been a person who can tolerate anger. Even though he knew the current situation, he still couldn't get angry and wanted to argue with the old guy.
On one side, Tantai Wan Ning's pretty face was slightly red, and she was ready to take action at any time. Once this guy got angry, he would go crazy and no one could stop him. He was extremely arrogant and had a market spirit. .
"Haha! Since you are so confident, I will give you this opportunity!"
Just when the girl was feeling nervous, unexpectedly, a burst of laughter suddenly came from the mouth of the old man Tianze.
For a moment, both of them were confused. What is going on?
