Report

An eyeball with a diameter of 20 meters. How big would the animal that matched it be? Just thinking about this concept made Zuo Zhicheng's hair stand on end.

This was an instinctive reaction of humans when they encountered a great threat. He stood quietly on the stone wall and stared at the pair of eyeballs at the bottom of the hole. He even held his breath unconsciously.

A few seconds later, he looked at the big eyeball at the bottom of the hole with a puzzled look in his eyes.

'That eye … seems dead?'

Zuo Zhicheng kept looking at the eyeball, and he soon realized that something was wrong. The eyeball didn't move, and it didn't react to the light or him at all.

'Is it dead? Or blind? 'Zuo Zhicheng thought,' Or … is it not an eyeball at all? '

Thinking of this, Zuo Zhicheng looked at the thing at the bottom of the hole and felt that it was not an eyeball again. Therefore, he suppressed the creepy feeling in his heart and slowly descended to the ground.

After descending all the way, the scene at the bottom of the hole gradually became clearer. It was indeed not an eyeball. What appeared in front of Zuo Zhicheng was a huge lake. Perhaps it was more accurate to call it a pond instead of a lake.

The reason it looked like an eyeball was because there was a protruding ground in the middle of the pond. Together with the surrounding ponds, it looked like a human eyeball.

Relying on the strength of his legs, Zuo Zhicheng jumped lightly and arrived at the protruding ground in the middle of the pond at the bottom of the hole. He looked at the water around him and could see that the water was a little murky. He could not see what was at the bottom of the pond and did not know how deep it was.

'Could it be that the pond has been continuously irrigated by rainwater for decades? Or could it be that the bottom of the pond has collapsed and the groundwater has flowed back? 'Zuo Zhicheng could only think of these two explanations.

But no matter which one it was, it could only mean one thing. That was, the tunnel was still bottomless even at a distance of more than 500 meters. God knows how deep it was. Even in modern society, there were only a handful of such tall buildings on Earth. Now, someone had actually dug such a deep tunnel. It was simply unbelievable.

Zuo Zhicheng looked at the ground under his feet. The protrusion in the pond was about 50 square meters. It was made of a white stone with a marble-like luster. It should be a stone platform. However, because of the pond, it was very humid and wet everywhere.

The most eye-catching thing was a door-like object in the center of the stone platform.

Zuo Zhicheng walked closer and saw that it was a mirror. The mirror was about three meters tall and one and a half meters wide. It stood there like a door.

In the middle of a space more than 500 meters underground, there was actually a mirror. Zuo Zhicheng had an indescribable feeling of strangeness. He looked at the mirror and found that although the edge of the mirror was covered in layers of rust, the mirror itself was still very clear. He could clearly hear Zuo Zhicheng's own voice.

'What does a mirror mean?' Zuo Zhicheng looked at it for a long time but still couldn't figure it out. He stepped forward and wanted to go behind the mirror to take a look at the back of the mirror.

When he looked at it, he found that the back of the mirror was already rusty. It had been completely corroded, and nothing could be seen.

Since entering the cave, he had seen things that were stranger than the previous one. However, there didn't seem to be any important clues. Zuo Zhicheng hadn't encountered any danger, but he still couldn't figure out where this place was. Was it the ancient tomb built by the Amalikan noble?

If it was really the ancient tomb built by the noble, then the Amalikans' technology level was too high.

Zuo Zhicheng walked to the edge of the stone platform and looked at the bottomless pond. He frowned. They didn't bring any underwater equipment with them this time. It was not a good idea to go into the water rashly.

Humans weren't aquatic creatures. No matter how skilled a warrior was, their combat power would be reduced to less than 10% in the water. This was the innate racial structure.

After thinking about it, he didn't want to go into the water anymore. He decided to climb back first and explain the situation to Qing Yueqiu and Shen Anan. Maybe they knew what was going on here.

Thinking of this, Zuo Zhicheng looked up at the stone wall and found the right angle. He jumped lightly onto the stone wall and climbed all the way up.

This time, Zuo Zhicheng climbed all the way up. He already knew the structure of the cave, so he didn't slow down like before. After all, it was only a forty-degree slope. It might be a bit troublesome for ordinary people, but for Zuo Zhicheng, it was like walking on flat ground. Once he let go, he moved like a wisp of smoke, quickly moving toward the entrance of the cave.

After a while, Zuo Zhicheng climbed back to the entrance of the cave. He saw Qing Yueqiu, Li Xunyi, Shen Anan, and Ah Hu waiting for him.

As soon as he saw him, Shen Anan couldn't wait to ask, "How was it? Is there a tomb down there? "

Zuo Zhicheng shook his head and told them everything he saw.

After listening, Qing Yueqiu said, "The carvings on the stone wall look like the gods of the stars."

"What are the gods of the stars?"

Qing Yueqiu explained, "The Amalikans worship the starry sky. Although the starry sky above us looks vast and ever-changing, in fact, it has a pattern. The Amalikans named different stars according to the stars they observed and created the gods of each star. These are the gods they worship. Their so-called Divine Realm is above the starry sky. "

Shen Anan said, "But why did they draw the gods of the stars on the stone wall? This is obviously the way to the ground, not the way to the sky. It doesn't make sense. "

"You have to think of it differently." Li Xunyi said, "For us, it's the way to the bottom of the cave, but for us, it's the way to the sky. There are gods of the stars around to welcome us. It feels a bit like the Immortal Painting."

The Immortal Painting mentioned by Li Xunyi was a famous painting of the Tiandao Palace, a big sect in the Central Plains. It depicted the scene of hundreds of immortals welcoming you after you ascended. It was said that there was a set of earth-shattering martial arts hidden in this painting, but no one had comprehended it until now.

And now the passage under their feet was indeed like the scene of the gods welcoming them after they ascended to the Divine Realm.

"This damn guy, he's still not reconciled to his death. He's wasting people's money and wants to ascend to the Divine Realm?" Shen Anan scolded, "Such a big project, how many people's blood and sweat have been consumed? I must empty his tomb."

"Anyway, let's go down and have a look first." Zuo Zhicheng looked at the bottomless cave in front of him and said, "I always feel that there's something wrong with this cave."
