Luo Li, originally the youngest family head of an ancient clan in the 21st century and the most talented alchemist, died one day and transmigrated into the body of the good-for-nothing eldest young...
Chapter 1146 Are you scared?
Lan Xiaoxiao followed her gaze and shuddered: "That side looks even more eerie than the center. What if there is..."
"It's precisely because it's dangerous that I have to go and take a look." Luo Li's fingertips brushed across the Xuan Yue sword on her waist, and the sword suddenly glowed with an ice-blue light.
Lei Che pulled out the spiritual compass from his arms, but the needle was spinning strangely and madly. "Something's wrong! The spiritual energy field here is too chaotic!"
Before he could finish his words, the cloud steps beneath his feet suddenly cracked into spider-web-like patterns.
Everyone jumped up in panic, only to see the ground suddenly collapse, revealing a bottomless black hole.
Countless glowing vines sprang out of the cave and coiled around their ankles like snakes.
Luo Li's sword flashed continuously, and the icy air froze the vines into ice chips.
"This is the Soul-Devouring Vine!" Lan Xiaoxiao's face turned pale. "Although it's not poisonous, it feeds on spiritual energy!"
She quickly formed seals and summoned a sky full of petals with her flying hands, but they were all swallowed up the moment they touched the vines.
Upon seeing this, Lei Che's palm exploded with lightning, and the thick vines were chopped into charcoal, but new branches immediately grew out of the burnt ends.
Amidst the chaos, a clear bell suddenly rang through the sky.
Everyone looked up and saw an ancient bronze bell vibrating on the top of the tallest building in the east. Ancient inscriptions appeared on the bell and waves of energy surged.
Luo Li's pupils suddenly shrank - why did this power look so familiar!
"Over there! Let's go!" She no longer hesitated and flew towards the building in the east.
Di Xuanming, Lan Xiaoxiao and others followed without hesitation.
Seeing Luo Li leave directly, Qian Ren and the others could only quickly follow.
Luo Li and the others shuttled quickly among the sea of clouds. The Soul-Devouring Vine behind them retreated like a tide, as if frightened by some invisible force.
The humming sound of the ancient bronze bell became clearer and clearer, and each sound seemed to strike deep into the soul, shaking the mind.
"This bell sound..." Lan Xiaoxiao covered her ears, her face slightly changed, "It can actually disrupt the circulation of spiritual energy!"
Lei Che gritted his teeth and said, "No wonder those vines don't dare to get close. This bell sound has a suppressive effect on monsters!"
Luo Li felt that the soul power in her body was unusually active, as if it had some kind of resonance with the bell sound.
She looked down at the Xuan Yue Sword at her waist. The patterns on the sword were exactly the same as the inscriptions on the bell.
This sword was once Cangwu's natal spiritual weapon.
Could it be...
She narrowed her eyes slightly, and a guess emerged.
A quarter of an hour later, everyone landed on the flat ground. In front of them was a palace-like building, and the attic was in the center of the palace.
When I landed on the ground, everything seemed to return to calm.
Lan Xiaoxiao said with lingering fear: "This relic is too strange."
Luo Li narrowed her eyes and said, "Let's go in and take a look."
She walked forward first, Di Xuanming walked beside her, and the others followed behind them.
Luo Li placed her palm on the palace gate. She pushed it gently, and with a stiff sound, the palace door slowly opened.
The moment the palace door opened, an old and mysterious atmosphere hit me in the face, as if the years that had been buried for a long time were pouring out at this moment.
The main hall they entered was dimly lit, with only a few eternally burning lamps emitting a faint blue light scattered here and there, illuminating the ground in flickering ways.
The ground was engraved with intricate array patterns. Luo Li glanced over and found that these array patterns were in line with the patterns on the Xuan Yue Sword and the ancient bronze bell.
Just as she was about to step in, Di Xuanming suddenly reached out to stop her and warned, "Be careful, these array patterns are strange."
Before he finished speaking, the array pattern on the ground suddenly lit up with a dazzling light, forming an invisible barrier that blocked everyone out.
Lei Che immediately activated the spiritual compass, trying to analyze the mystery of the array pattern, but the compass was still spinning wildly, with no clue at all.
Song Wanbai stared at the array patterns and muttered to himself, "These array patterns seem to form some kind of ancient language. I've seen similar records in ancient books, but I've never seen such a large and complex array diagram."
Luo Li closed her eyes and mobilized the soul power in her body, trying to resonate with the array pattern.
Her Xuan Yue Sword trembled slightly, and the sword body shone brightly. Strands of spiritual power flowed along her arm into the formation pattern.
Miraculously, the light of the array pattern began to flicker rhythmically, and the barrier slowly dissipated.
When everyone stepped into the hall, they saw a tall stone platform standing in the center. On the platform was an ancient jade box, emitting a soft light.
And around the stone platform, there are eight huge stone tablets suspended, each of which is densely engraved with inscriptions.
Luo Li walked forward and stretched out her hand to touch the jade box. Suddenly, the eternal lamps around her went out instantly, and the entire hall fell into darkness.
Immediately afterwards, a very sinister laugh echoed in the hall: "Ahahaha, tiny insect, if you want the treasure, you have to get past me first!"
As soon as he finished speaking, countless black shadows rushed in from all directions. These shadows had different shapes, some looked like humans, some looked like monsters, and there was a strange red light flashing in their eyes.
Lei Che shouted loudly, lightning burst out from his palm, and he rushed towards the group of black shadows first;
Lan Xiaoxiao quickly formed seals and summoned a huge water barrier, trying to block the attack of the black shadow;
Di Xuanming protected Luo Li closely, the weapon in his hand flashing with a cold light.
But Luo Li looked at this thing, and a guess vaguely emerged.
She raised her hand to signal everyone to stop. Although Xie Shiyuan and the others were a little confused, they still followed her instructions.
When the black shadow saw Luo Li and the others stop, he laughed even more sinisterly and frantically, "Ahahahaha, you are the most cowardly humans I have ever seen!"
Luo Li raised her eyes and raised the Xuan Yue Sword expressionlessly.
"Why aren't you talking?! Are you scared silly by the great Taixu Ancient Dragon?!" the black shadow continued.
However, when he saw the sword in Luo Li's hand, his eyes almost popped out, "Hey? Hey?! Xuan Yue?!"
The black shadow trembled violently, and its originally ferocious form froze instantly, stopping abruptly like a duck with its throat strangled.
Those surging black shadow clones dissipated into smoke with a "puff", leaving only a ball of black mist floating above the jade box and trembling.
"Cang...How come Lord Cangwu's sword is in your hand?!" The black shadow's voice suddenly became shrill, and the gloomy aura just now disappeared, and he was like a frightened rabbit.
Luo Li stroked the sword lightly with her fingertips, and the Xuan Yue Sword immediately emitted a clear humming sound.
She looked at the black mist with a half-smile: "Are you scared now?"
The black shadow shrunk behind the stone tablet, revealing only half of its misty head. "Impossible! Back then, Lord Cangwu had clearly already..."
He suddenly fell silent, and the mist surged violently. "Wait! You smell like him!"
Di Xuanming's eyes darkened, and he calmly took half a step forward to block Luo Li.
Lan Xiaoxiao still maintained the barrier in her hand, but she was so shocked that she forgot to put it away. "Hey, what is this thing? Does this black shadow know A-Li's sword?"
