Zi Chen stood still, but screams continued from the outside.
Everyone immediately turned their heads and looked around, and saw tentacles growing out of the ground.
The tentacles were slender and soft, but extremely sharp, easily piercing the bodies of those people and dragging them up.
"What the hell?"
The faces of those who saw this scene changed drastically.
I thought there was no danger here, so I decided to kill Zi Chen first and then look for opportunities.
Unexpectedly, the crisis appeared again.
Some people subconsciously looked at Zi Chen, maybe he could help solve the crisis this time?
Zi Chen did not take action or take the opportunity to escape. He stood there with a solemn expression.
Someone tried to pass by this place and escape into the distance. .??.
He stepped heavily on his feet, and his whole body rose into the air and flew straight into the distance.
call out!
The outer tentacles suddenly accelerated, intercepted in the sky, and then easily pierced the opponent's body.
"What are these?"
Lin Cai's face turned pale. She had already seen the two gods being attacked.
Subconsciously, she leaned towards Zi Chen.
At this time, it seemed that only Zi Chen could bring her some sense of security.
Sun Qiantong held a talisman in her hand, her fingers trembling.
"It should be an unknown creature." Zi Chen said in a deep voice.
The tentacles slowly approached this place from the outside, and everyone died while retreating.
Someone tried to use fire, and large flames fell down, like a sea of fire extending forward, but they could not ignite the tentacles.
Attack after attack appeared, trying to cut off, but the tentacles still showed no response.
Invulnerable to water and fire.
Invulnerable.
The shadow of death instantly enveloped their hearts, and many people began to scream.
Others shouted to Zi Chen for help.
The two powerful men in the Holy Land had no idea at the moment. They looked at Zi Chen, "Is there any way to break the situation?"
Zi Chen pointed forward, "That one seems to be gone."
The barrier that prevented everyone from climbing the steps disappeared at some point, and the stone steps in front of everyone were clear and smooth.
"I understand, this thing is here to guide us to the sky. This may be a monster that climbs to the sky!"
The two people in the Holy Land suddenly understood, and their moods became renewed.
People approaching have already climbed the stone steps.
As expected, there was no obstruction and I stepped on it easily.
When the others saw this, they immediately followed.
Great opportunities lie ahead.
In the blink of an eye, people nearby climbed up the steps, including the two people from the Holy Land.
After climbing the steps, the two of them turned around and looked at Zi Chen coldly, turning their faces away and saying, "You are not allowed to come up, or you will die!"
The others stood on the steps, as if they felt that their lives would not be threatened, and stood up again one by one, staring at Zi Chen with cold eyes.
The meaning is obvious, if you come up, you will die
.
Zi Chen still stood where he was, not having the slightest idea of going up.
Lin Cai and Sun Qiantong were also around Zi Chen.
In fact, at this moment, as long as the two of them open their mouths, the others will naturally show off their face, and there will be no problem in climbing up the steps and climbing to the sky.
But no, the two of them stayed beside Zi Chen.
Somewhat strangely, Mu Bai didn't even go up.
Qin Zhi was also beside him, but judging from his expression, it was obvious that he was reluctant and was forced to stay.
"Mu Bai, why don't you come up?" the people from the Holy Land asked.
Mu Bai said, "I have to keep an eye on Zi Chen. If he goes up, I will follow him."
When the people in the Holy Land heard this, they burst into laughter.
Once Mu Bai blocks the road behind, Zi Chen will really die.
Before, he was worried that Mu Bai would join Zi Chen or choose not to join each other, but now it seems that the worry is unnecessary.
The tentacles are still surrounding this side, and it seems that they really want to guide everyone to the stone steps.
"Zi Chen, if you dare to come up, you will die!" The people in the Holy Land laughed.
Zi Chen didn't dare to come up. If he faced the invulnerable tentacles next, he would have no choice but to die.
Zi Chen turned his back to the stone steps and looked at the approaching tentacles.
"Are you ready?"
The two nodded and moved closer to Zi Chen again.
Buzz!
Zi Chen's body was surrounded by golden light, and the headless war god appeared, not only covering Zi Chen, but also Lin Cai and Sun Qiantong.
Then, behind Zi Chen, a divine gate appeared.
Another black turtle walked out of the divine gate and protected the headless war god with its mountain-like body.
The tentacles are also approaching at this time.
"Walk!"
Zi Chen shouted, and the three of them rushed forward at the same time.
When the tentacles met the black turtle, the black turtle's body dispersed as the light twisted.
"Zi Chen, don't run!"
Mu Bai saw the opportunity and shouted, and actually followed him.
The black turtle's body shattered like porcelain, and light filled the sky. Then its tentacles wrapped around the body of the headless war god. I wonder if it was due to previous consumption, but now it was unable to crush the headless war god in an instant.
More tentacles swept forward and attacked the Headless God of War.
Bang!
When the Headless God of War was shattered, Zi Chen finally led the two of them out of the tentacle's range.
The tentacles did not pursue him because there was Mu Bai behind.
"Why is Mu Bai here too?" Lin Cai was confused.
Zi Chen did not help, but took the two of them back a certain distance to make sure that the tentacles did not turn back to attack.
Mu Bai was really brave and rushed out with Qin Zhi.
After coming out, he nodded and smiled at Zi Chen, saying nothing.
Then he turned around and looked at the stone steps ahead.
The tentacles are still shrinking, like a monster ascending to the sky, making everyone eager to get the chance to ascend to the sky.
"It seems that both of you will miss this opportunity."
The people in the Holy Land laughed, the biggest threat was removed, and there was no threat to the remaining people. Only the two of them could get the opportunity here.
The tentacles were about to touch the stone steps, and the others immediately started to climb to the sky.
Everyone was very excited in front of this great opportunity, especially Zi Chen and Mu Bai, after they lost their qualifications.
Zi Chen did not leave, still standing there and watching.
The tentacle has approached the stone steps, but it has not disappeared.
Tentacles began to spiral up the stone steps.
This is following the footsteps of others.
Soon, screams began.
Listening to the increasingly shrill screams coming from the front, Sun Qiantong's face turned extremely pale, "How do you know... this is a trap?"
Her voice was trembling.
Climbing the stone steps with no chance to come down is like trying to catch a turtle in an urn.
Those people are in trouble.
Including two powerful men from the Holy Land.
Zi Chen did not respond, but looked at Mu Bai, "Why did you come out?"
Mu Bai smiled and said, "If you follow you, you won't die. This is something everyone has understood early on. Unfortunately, in the face of interests, everyone is a little confused."
"Just because of this, you gave up a great opportunity?"
For the people of Dongting China, Nantianmen and Gutianting are the greatest opportunities in the world.
"Survival is obviously more important than chance. Compared with others, you are the least likely to seek death. So if you leave, I will leave too."
Mu Bai's explanation is quite reasonable.
Then, Mu Bai asked out his doubts, "How do you know that these people will not survive? How do you determine that this is not a chance?"
Zi Chen didn't hide anything and said directly, "Because this place is full of deep malice towards those who come."
Except for a bridge to the dead, which has allowed many people to survive, whether it is the previous temptation or the light door that is obviously an escape, they all reflect the malice here.
The light door leads directly to the outside world, which is obviously a way to survive, but everyone died tragically in it.
In a place where even retreat is a dead end, Zi Chen certainly doesn't believe that opportunities will appear in front of people so easily.
It can be seen so easily that there must be some kind of big crisis hidden.
Sure enough, the unknown tentacle appeared, confirming Zi Chen's guess.
And the tentacles appeared, and the barrier outside the stone steps disappeared.
Under such circumstances, how could Zi Chen dare to climb the stone steps?
So Zi Chen didn't dare to gamble even if he had the slightest suspicion.
Facts have also proved that the stone steps are not a road to the sky at all, but a dead end.
Everyone who goes up there never comes back.
"Where is the real opportunity?" Mu Bai asked.
Zi Chen shook his head. He fell from the top of the mountain and came here. It was like entering a small independent world. The only abnormalities at present were the tentacles and stone steps.
Zi Chen looked at the stone steps again, perhaps the real opportunity was still up there.
But this is unlikely.
In fact, whether there is any chance here is still a question. Not all similar places will have chance.
On the stone steps, the screams were still ringing.
Some people started calling Zi Chen loudly, asking him for help. They finally woke up, but it was too late.
More people are trying to save themselves.
But the tentacles have already spread all over the stone steps, and there is no way to escape.
Someone tried to jump down from above, but found that they could not leave the stone steps and had to go up or down.
"Zi Chen, help!"
"Help, Zi Chen!"
Listening to these cries for help, Zi Chen had no expression on his face.
Mu Bai shrugged.
If Zi Chen really helped in this situation, then he would have to doubt the other person's IQ and whether there was something wrong with him.
Don't ask Zi Chen to save people now. Even if someone survives, Zi Chen will probably step forward to finish the job.
The reason why Mu Bai followed Zi Chen was naturally because he knew Zi Chen, or someone like Zi Chen.
The screams disappeared.
Then the stone steps disappeared.
A silkworm cocoon fell from the sky and hit the ground hard, creating a deep pit.
Snapped!
The cocoon shattered and two people appeared.
It was the two people from the Holy Land.
The two men were covered in bloodstains and looked very embarrassed, but they were still alive.
This is also the only remaining survivor.
"you do this delibrately?"
After the two stood up, they stared at Zi Chen coldly.
Zi Chen said lightly, "What?"
"You knew the stone steps were dangerous, but you still tricked us into going up there. You killed other people!" One person said viciously, "Why are you so vicious in your thoughts? Those are all lives!"
Zi Chen smiled, "I remember you didn't let me go up there before. Why, now that you haven't found the opportunity, you blame me instead? You are also from the Holy Land after all, and every word and deed represents the Holy Land. Can you show some respect?"
When Zi Chen retorted, the two of them turned pale and green for a while.
No matter how messy they are, it is true that they stopped Zi Chen from climbing the stairs.
At this moment, a scream suddenly came from the sky.
