"Eh? Are there footsteps ahead? "
After walking for a long time, he finally heard footsteps. Luo Ping didn't care if it was a human or a monster. He went forward directly. The footsteps on the other side were also rapidly approaching.
The light of the two flames finally met. Facing the light, Luo Ping saw the scene on the other side clearly. It was a delicate face. The familiar face made Luo Ping smile.
"It's you."
"It's you."
The two spoke at the same time. In this case, it was lucky to meet a teammate. The person on the other side was Yu Qing. Luo Ping remembered that when they entered the passage, he was behind Yu Qing.
"Didn't you see anyone else?" Luo Ping asked.
"No, I walked for a long time before I met you. What is this place? Why do my vision and soul sense seem to have lost their function? Even the light of the flames is limited. "
Yu Qing asked doubtfully.
"I don't know. Anyway, this place is very strange. We'd better be careful. It's better to find the exit. As long as there is a light source, it will be much safer." Luo Ping said.
Although his cultivation strength was not affected, his soul sense was not useful. His judgment of danger was weakened a lot. In addition, his vision was limited. If there was really danger, it would be very difficult to deal with it.
"Yes, which direction should we go now?" Yu Qing asked.
"Did you come from that direction?" Luo Ping asked.
Yu Qing pointed behind her. Luo Ping realized that the two of them had come from the same direction, but they had gradually gotten closer to each other before finally reuniting here.
"In that case, let's continue in the same direction and see if we can find the exit." Luo Ping said.
"Okay, no problem. Let's go." Yu Qing said.
The two of them set off again, each relying on the weak light of the flames to move forward. Luo Ping could faintly feel that Yu Qing's flames were burning hot with a hint of coldness, as if they were compatible with water and fire.
Luo Ping and Li Wuyou kept talking to each other. Unknowingly, they had walked for a long time. During this time, they didn't meet anyone else. They also didn't know what happened to the cultivators who came in before them.
"Hey, there are sounds of fighting up ahead. It seems there are people," Luo Ping said.
At the same time, Yu Qing also noticed the fight in front of them. After a discussion, they immediately followed the direction of the sound. However, the sound seemed to be very close. They walked for a long time but still didn't see anyone.
…
"Why is this place so eerie?"
A woman's voice sounded. She sounded a little scared.
"This old thing is really not human. He actually dares to bully us like this. When I have the strength, I will definitely skin him alive. Oh … my arm. "
The other man's voice was obviously very angry. He couldn't help but hit the ground with his hand, and he screamed in pain.
"I say, Qu Zhe, don't talk big. That Elder Jing is a Nascent Soul stage expert. How can you deal with him? Even if you are lucky enough to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage, it will probably be thousands of years later. Maybe he will be dead by then. "
Ding Zhangshan said with a smile. Although it was a joke, what he said was indeed reasonable. Qu Zhe probably had no hope of revenge.
"Brother Ding is right. You don't know that it took Elder Jing 4,000 years to cultivate to today's realm. However, he has also been in the current realm for hundreds of years. For a Nascent Soul stage expert who only has a lifespan of 5,000 years, he doesn't have much time left."
"He still hasn't reached the late stage of the Nascent Soul stage. I think it is even more impossible for him to reach the Celestial Life stage when the time of 5,000 years comes. Therefore, his death is inevitable. Brother Qu, don't think about revenge. Just think about how to save your life and wait for him to die."
Although he was actually older than Han Junyang and stronger than them, he still called them brothers because of Luo Ping. After all, in the Cultivation Domain, age was no longer important.
"I think it is a problem for us to save our lives now. This should be a forbidden area, right? That Elder Jing is really sinister. He sent us into this forbidden area. He didn't kill us personally but pushed us to death. He is really not simple. "
Han Junyang saw through Elder Jing's thoughts and could only say helplessly.
After the five of them were sent into the forbidden area by Elder Jing, they wanted to go out. At this time, they found that there was a restriction at the entrance of the forbidden area. When they came in, there was no hindrance. However, there was no way to go out.
The five of them gathered together and chatted with each other. Now that they thought about what they had heard before about a disciple who went crazy after accidentally entering the forbidden area, they felt their scalps tingle.
Not only was there no Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy, but it was also filled with the smell of death. The air was filled with a gloomy and terrifying aura. Looking inside, they could only see darkness.
"Why don't we go in and see if there are other exits?" Qu Xing 'er asked tentatively.
When the other four heard this, they looked at each other. Although they didn't want to do this, they were helpless sitting here. They might as well go in and take a look. Even if they died, at least they wouldn't be so cowardly.
"Okay, then let's go in and take a look. However, the three of you must follow me and Brother Zheng closely. At least it will be safer."
Han Junyang said. Currently, he and Zhen Qi were in the Qi Refining Stage. They were much stronger than Ding Zhangshan and the other two, so they took the initiative to take on the responsibility of protecting them.
However, the five of them knew in their hearts that this was just self-consolation. When that Foundation Establishment Stage disciple came in, he became crazy. How could they deal with him with their little cultivation?
With effort, one could achieve anything. Going against the heavens not only cultivated one's strength, but also one's state of mind. A fearless heart was the most valuable thing.
As they walked along a small path, the air inside became more and more humid. The few of them had already made sufficient preparations. Zhen Qi walked in front, Han Junyang brought up the rear, and Qu Zhe and the other two were in the middle.
After walking for a while, the space in front of them suddenly became bright. A huge stone room appeared in the sight of the five of them. However, when they saw the scene in the stone room, they all shivered.
There were more than ten round tables in the stone room. There was a distance between each of them. On each round table, there was a figure sitting cross-legged. There was not a speck of dust on their bodies, and their skin was no different from that of an ordinary person.
Beside each figure, there was a storage ring placed there. Furthermore, there was a stone tablet erected on the round table. The stone tablet was filled with words.
Han Junyang and the other four were surprised at the beginning. Now, they began to look at the round tables one by one. In their hearts, they began to guess the identity of these figures.
Of course, they could see that these people were indeed lifeless. However, to be able to keep their bodies from rotting after death, these people's strength had at least reached the Nascent Soul Stage.
Only when one reached the Nascent Soul Stage could one condense all the cultivation strength of the whole body into the Nascent Soul to keep the body from rotting. The figures in front of them were obviously experts who had been dead for a long time. However, they did not know who they were.
"Brother Zheng, do you know who these people are?"
Han Junyang asked. After all, Zhen Qi had been in the Kongming Sect for the longest time. Perhaps he knew something about the situation. However, Zhen Qi's answer disappointed them.
"I don't know either. I'm just a registered disciple. How could I come into contact with such things? However, to be able to die here, these people might be the ancestors of our Kongming Sect, or experts who have a relationship with our sect. "
Zheng Qi guessed, and the other four felt that it made sense. If they weren't related to the Kongming Sect, these people wouldn't have been able to peacefully die here.
"Let's take a closer look and we'll know."
Qu Zhe said boldly and walked directly over. Han Junyang and the others saw this and their expressions changed greatly. They were about to stop him when they found that Qu Zhe had already walked to the front of one of the round tables without any accident.
"How can there be no danger?" Everyone was puzzled.
"My name is Ji Gu. My cultivation is in the middle Primordial Soul Stage. I was an elder. I died here during the sixteenth Sect Leader. All my cultivation methods and weapons are kept in the storage ring, waiting for a disciple of the younger generation to obtain them and pass on my mantle!"
Qu Zhe read the words on the stone tablet in front of him clearly. He was a little surprised and even a little excited.
Not only him, but even Zhen Qi and the others behind him vaguely guessed something. They all involuntarily approached the other round tables and began to observe.
"Lun Feizhou. Cultivation is in the early Primordial Soul Stage. I was an elder. I died here during the twelfth Sect Leader. I hope that a disciple of the younger generation can inherit my legacy and continue to pursue the path of immortality."
"Chengfeng. Cultivation is in the late Primordial Soul Stage. I was an elder. I died here during the seventh Sect Leader …"
…
"These … are all the elders of the sect in the past. They are all in the Primordial Soul Stage. Heavens, no wonder their bodies are guaranteed to not rot. If we can inherit their legacy, it will be a great gain." Zhen Qi seemed a little excited.
"But, if these elders died here to wait for a disciple of the younger generation, why did it become a forbidden area? Isn't this going against the wishes of these elders? "He was a little confused.
"Who cares? Since there is such a good thing, we must not miss it. Let's each choose a few of the storage rings of the elders and take a look. There are so many strong cultivators in here for us to choose from. What's the point of thinking about anything else? "
It was obvious that Qu Zhe could not wait. In the face of such temptation, he had lost his rational judgment. This was not surprising. He had not truly stepped into the ranks of cultivators. His state of mind was naturally much weaker.
Just like him, Qu Xing 'er and Ding Zhangshan were staring at the round tables in front of them with shining eyes. They did not hide their desire.
"Don't touch it!"
Zhen Qi shouted and stopped Qu Zhe and the others from reaching out to take the storage rings in the round tables. After all, they had cultivated to the Qi Refinement Stage. Zhen Qi and Han Junyang's state of mind was still relatively strong. They were not blinded by the temptation in front of them.
"Brother Zhen, why did you stop us?"
Qu Zhe asked with some resentment.
"Don't forget that even the disciples in the Foundation Establishment Stage became idiots when they entered here. What more you? If these legacies were so easy to obtain, how could they still be here after so many years? "
Zhen Qi's words were like a clap of thunder that woke Qu Zhe and the others up. They all took a few steps back in shock, distancing themselves from the round tables in front of them. After regaining their senses, they were already worried that these round tables might be dangerous.
"Thank you for your reminder, Brother Zhen. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable. However, we still have to think of a way to test whether these round tables are dangerous. Or rather, whether other places are dangerous." Ding Zhangshan said.
"Of course. It would be an idiot to not want to take the benefits when there are benefits. However, we can't be too reckless. Let's retreat first and figure out the situation of these round tables. This place is definitely not as safe as it looks."
