Wutian and the other two looked solemn as they stared at the Devil Mountain in front of them. Their thoughts seemed to have paused for a few breaths.
Dead silence! Dead silence like the Dead Sea!
There was no sound in the surroundings, not even the chirping of insects. Only the rapid breathing of the three could be heard, and their foreheads were covered with sweat!
Cold sweat!
"Seems like there's no other way. We can only go in and try," Wutian said in a low voice.
From his senses, there was no movement of the restriction here. This meant that the source of all this was indeed the Devil Mountain's doing.
"Whoever started the trouble should end it. Since all of this was caused by the Devil Mountain, we can only get to the bottom of it by entering the Devil Mountain. Perhaps the only way out is inside," Sikong Yanran added.
"But what about the little ones?" Cang Zheng asked doubtfully.
After pondering for a while, Wutian smiled faintly, "If the Devil Mountain only targets humans, they shouldn't be in any danger. Moreover, they are very strong. Even if they can't kill the enemy, they should be able to protect themselves."
"Hmph! Qing Shuxing, Little Demon King, you two bastards, just you wait. If I don't skin you alive, I, Cang Zheng, swear I'm not human! " Cang Zheng gritted his teeth. The anger in his heart was burning wildly. He couldn't wait to skin Qing Shuxing and Sikong Yanran alive.
"Let's go! There's no point in talking now. Wait until we get out of here and enter the movie city, then we can settle the score with them slowly, "Wutian said in a low voice. His heart was also filled with a strong desire to kill the two of them.
As they moved, the three of them looked unprecedentedly solemn. They were secretly accumulating their power to deal with any sudden situation.
"Look, aren't those human bones on the ground in front of us?" After walking a dozen steps, Sikong Yanran pointed to the front and asked in surprise.
The three of them stopped in their tracks and looked over. Their faces suddenly changed.
On the ground ten feet away, countless human bones were embedded in the soil. They were pitch black and very similar to the color of the ground and the Devil Mountain. If one didn't look carefully, it would be hard to tell.
"Is there danger ahead?" Cang Zheng asked, his face slightly pale.
The three of them did a quick count. There were more than a thousand skeletons in this direction alone. It was like a sea of skeletons. Moreover, it was as if someone had done it on purpose. These skeletons were neatly embedded on the surface of the soil, extending all the way to the foot of the Devil Mountain. Every single one of them was pitch black.
"Stay here and don't move. I'll go take a look," Wutian said solemnly.
This kind of scene was too frightening and too strange, so Wutian made up his mind to go alone to find out what was going on. If something unexpected happened, at least the three of them wouldn't be trapped inside. At that time, the two of them could even lend him a helping hand.
"Be careful." Cang Zheng warned. There was no other choice now because this was the only way to enter the Devil Mountain. Among the three of them, Wutian was the strongest. If anything were to happen, he believed that he could handle it.
"As long as there is danger, call for help. I will spare no effort to save you." Sikong Yanran smiled slightly, but this smile was very unnatural.
Wutian nodded and turned around to look at the pitch-black Devil Mountain. He took a deep breath and took a step forward, starting to walk inside.
At the same time, he took out the God's Left Hand and Right Hand from his mustard seed bag and wore them on his hands. He gathered his strength on his fists. Even with the Saint Weapon as his support, he still couldn't relax. His expression was very serious. He looked around and listened carefully, not missing any movement.
Unexpectedly, when Wutian carefully walked all the way to the edge of the inlaid skeletons, nothing unusual happened. It was as quiet as usual. Faint breathing sounds could be heard clearly!
Bending down, Wutian was very rational and didn't touch the black skeletons with his hands. He only looked with his eyes. As a result, he was surprised to find that these skeletons were actually intact. Moreover, they were all human skeletons. There wasn't a single skeleton of a ferocious beast or flying insect.
Seeing that there was no danger, Cang Zheng and Cang Zheng walked forward. When they saw this scene up close, Sikong Yanran was so scared that her face turned pale. If it weren't for her two companions and the fact that she had to go to the Devil Mountain, she really didn't want to enter this thunder pool.
"There are no traces of battle. Then how did they die? Also, did you notice that the distance between the skeletons is just right? It's as if someone deliberately did this. "Cang Zheng frowned, his head full of doubts.
"As usual, I'll go scout. If it's safe, you guys can follow me." Wutian said and stepped in resolutely.
When he stepped on the ground, there was nothing unusual except that it was a little cold.
Looking at the skeletons under his feet, Wutian exerted a little force and frowned. Although there was nothing unusual, he found that the skeletons embedded in the soil were especially hard. They were probably not inferior to Imperial Divine Weapons.
"It seems that they weren't ordinary people when they were alive, but they died here without any warning. I guess this place isn't as simple as it looks," Wutian muttered.
According to the degree of completeness of the skeletons and their neat arrangement, he could infer that the owners of these skeletons didn't do any fighting or struggle when they were alive. It wasn't wrong to say that they died without any warning.
Aware of this, Wutian became even more cautious. He spread out his divine sense and walked forward step by step. His speed was unprecedentedly slow.
After walking for five hundred feet, there were still no accidents. Wutian couldn't help but gradually relax. He was about to turn his head and give instructions to the two, but the moment he turned his head, two screams suddenly rang out.
Seeing Cang Zheng and Sikong Yanran turn pale with fright and pointing at him with a frightened expression, Wutian suddenly felt his hair stand on end. He turned his head abruptly, but didn't see anything. He couldn't help but turn his head again and ask doubtfully, "What are you doing?"
"My voice?"
As soon as the words left his mouth, Wutian realized that something was wrong because this was not his original voice at all. This voice was hoarse and weak, no different from the voice of an old man in his twilight years.
"Young Master Li Feng, your face …"
Sikong Yanran looked as if she had seen a monster. Her face was full of shock and fear, and her beautiful eyes were filled with disbelief.
"Could it be …"
Wutian's heart trembled. An ominous premonition swept over his heart like a tide. He waved his hand and the power of water emerged. A mirror appeared in an instant. When he saw the image in the mirror, he was immediately stunned.
In the mirror, there was no longer a young man, only an old man with a face full of wrinkles.
"How could this be?!"
Wutian's heart couldn't calm down. Waves of shock rolled over and over. His face full of wrinkles, his turbid eyes, and his long white hair all proved that he had now become an old man in his twilight years.
Noticing this, Wutian hurriedly looked at his body. With one look, he didn't dare to hesitate any longer. His figure flickered and he quickly rushed toward Cang Zheng and Sikong Yanran.
This was because he was shocked to find that even his body was changing rapidly, as if his flesh and blood were melting crazily. Wutian could clearly feel that his body was becoming lighter and lighter, and his vitality was flowing away at a rapid speed!
However, when he reached the edge of the skeleton, there was a sudden boom. It was as if he had hit something. With a muffled groan, he was actually directly bounced back!
This sudden change not only shocked Wutian, but also Cang Zheng and Sikong Yanran couldn't help but change their expressions. They were suddenly thrown into confusion.
"Young Master Li Feng, are you alright?!" Sikong Yanran cried out anxiously. She took a step forward, ready to go to his rescue. In the end, she was pulled back by Cang Zheng, who gestured for her not to act rashly.
Wutian stood up and didn't dare to delay for a moment. He quickly walked to the edge and stretched out his wrinkled hand. Suddenly, he felt as if there was an invisible barrier in the void, blocking the way forward and preventing him from leaving this place of bones!
Power surged out like a torrent. In the end, Wutian was once again bounced back. In the void, there was nothing unusual. There wasn't even a ripple.
"I don't believe that you can stop me!" Wutian walked forward again. His face was gloomy to the extreme. His entire body erupted with power and he punched out!
"Boom!"
At the same time as the loud explosion, Wutian spat out a mouthful of blood. Like a kite with a broken string, he flew out horizontally and landed heavily on the ground. This place was smashed into a huge crater. The pitch-black soil and bones were scattered all over the sky!
"Don't be rash. This void is strange. It can bounce all your power back. In other words, the more power you use, the more serious the injury you will suffer." Cang Zheng hurriedly said when he saw Wutian rushing over again.
Being said like this, Wutian also calmed down. Frowning, he pondered for a while and said, "Isn't this the same principle as the little guy's magical technique, using the other party's method to treat oneself?"
"That's right. But it's much stronger than the little guy's Remarkable Art." Cang Zheng nodded. Thoughts flashed through his mind as he tried to think of a way to break it.
"If that's the case, then use overwhelming combat power to break this invisible barrier!" Wutian said in a low voice. If the little guy's Remarkable Art could be broken under overwhelming combat power, then this should work too.
"Don't be hasty. Let me think about it. First, use the monkey wine to recover your vitality!" Cang Zheng shook his head.
Wutian's intention was clear. He wanted to use the power of the Holy Weapon. However, he still couldn't be sure how strong the invisible thing in the void was. If he couldn't break it, then the full power of the Holy Weapon would be enough to take Wutian's life.
"Sigh!"
Wutian heard this and thought for a moment. In the end, he shook his head and sighed. He was really careless this time.
He really didn't expect such a strange thing to happen. He was only an inch away from where Cang Zheng and Cang Zheng were. But in this inch, it was as if there was a natural moat that separated the land into two worlds.
Moreover, if he continued to go deeper, even though the distance to the Devil Mountain was not far, and even though his speed was very fast, Wutian was sure that before he entered the Devil Mountain, he would become the companion of the skeletons in the mud.
In desperation, he could only take out the monkey wine and gulp it down. However, in this strange environment, the monkey wine, which was full of divine essence, had little effect …
