Chapter 100: Fragile Life and the Almighty Gods (Please subscribe! Please vote! 13)
As Wen Zhengming's voice rang out, the entire city suddenly shook, like the tremor of a volcano before it erupted, as if something was about to come out from deep underground.
Everyone stopped and stood at the gate of the palace.
From here one can see from afar the ruins and devastation of the palace reflected in the dim green light, and the source of the vibration is right in the deepest part of the palace.
"There seems to be a big guy in there."
Wen Zhengming said to himself.
………
Inside the palace, Daoyi exerted force with his arms, veins bulged, and the inscriptionless monument began to separate from the ground.
The golden light and shadow covering the earth gradually began to shrink.
The earth began to shake violently.
The entire ghost town seemed to be awakened by this force.
Daoyi exerted force suddenly again, and the inscriptionless monument was suddenly pulled up a long distance and landed on Daoyi's back. Daoyi sank his feet and left two deep footprints on the ground.
The vibration became more obvious.
The golden light dissipated immediately.
However, the deformed head did not continue to attack. Instead, it cried for joy. From its huge head, its eyeball, which was swollen as big as a winter melon, tears flowed down its cheeks.
"Finally... the seal has finally been opened."
The land covered with Dao patterns shattered in an instant, and spider-web-like cracks instantly covered the land.
There was a faint green light deep in the cracks, and the resentful, evil curse seeped out from the cracks bit by bit.
"Walk!"
Li Mubai took the lead with a sword, clearing the way in front. The pure white sword light crisscrossed the earth, and the sharp sword energy cleared a gap in the green-haired cursed creatures on the ground.
He had already felt the twisted power beneath the earth, like the roars and cries of endless wronged souls, darkness, corruption, rust...
It's impossible to describe that curse in detail with words. It seems that just by looking at it, one will be eroded by the curse.
As the group of people started to walk out, they realized that they could no longer stay in this place.
Just as everyone left the place where the inscriptionless monument was placed, the broken ground suddenly swelled up and rose high.
"boom!"
The earth shattered and endless curses rose into the sky.
The faint green light could be seen throughout the ghost town. Even Bujie, who was outside the ghost town, could clearly see the terrifying green light.
After the dark green light like the entrance to hell lit up, a picture appeared in everyone's mind.
It was a wooden sculpture, simple and rustic. It stretched out a finger and pointed into the distance. That finger seemed to have traveled through time and space and pressed on the dragon vein of the earth. Endless curses were growing under the finger.
This finger seemed to be a layer of endless hell, and all sufferings were breeding under the finger.
In the distance, drought began to occur on the land. Along with the drought and cracking of the earth, countless people began to transform uncontrollably into monsters.
Under the earth, all kinds of monsters began to crawl out from the ground.
The earth turned into a living hell almost in an instant.
The king of this place mobilized the entire country for this purpose. Anyone who could solve this problem would be promoted, regardless of their background.
Later, with the guidance of a strange man, the king of this country found the owner of the wood carving.
And gave its owner countless rare treasures.
In the picture, the figure of the owner of the wood sculpture can be vaguely seen. I don’t know if it’s because of the angle or other reasons, but from everyone’s perspective, it looks like an extremely tall and majestic figure.
The face is blurred, as if the true appearance cannot be seen due to the interference of some terrifying force.
But even so, everyone could feel that there seemed to be endless power in that body.
After receiving the valuable gift, the tall and strong middle-aged man picked up an axe. The axe seemed to be stained with yin and yang, life and death. Just seeing it made people feel like they were approaching death.
One axe down.
The wood carving's fingers were broken.
The endless curse turned into fingers and fell down.
Everyone seemed to feel a sense of bitterness. It was you who created me, but you want to chop me off with your own hands.
So what's the point of you creating me?
However, the towering giant in the picture didn't care about this finger. In his eyes, this finger joint that was enough to send the world to hell seemed dispensable.
The tall figure threw the wooden knuckle away, and the knuckle seemed to travel through time and space and land somewhere.
From then on, I was never remembered by the tall figure again.
The next moment, the picture shattered instantly, and the severed finger became the last thing left in the picture.
And this finger bone is the origin of this ghost town.
Although the picture did not explain it clearly, everyone understood it naturally.
It was as if that finger bone filled with resentment and hatred told them.
That was the wrath of Wooden Knuckles.
Outside the palace, Qiao Yuanshan and others also saw this scene.
At this moment, they finally saw what the true mythological era was. What trapped them here, or even created this ghost town, was nothing more than a piece of wooden finger bone that the figure casually discarded.
But it made them escape death, and this once great city in the Western Regions was turned into a ghost town, with tens of thousands of people in the city buried under the yellow sand for a thousand years.
Qiao Yuanshan didn’t know what to say, he just had a feeling that they were like mortals playing a game played by God.
Powerless!
And fragile!
There is a deep gap between fragile life and the high gods, and they are the ones who climb over this gap.
There is an endless abyss ahead.
"Human beings! How fragile they are!"
Qiao Yuanshan couldn't help but sigh
"That's why we seek eternal life, isn't it?"
Zhang Yixing stood beside Qiao Yuanshan and said.
Qiao Yuanshan glanced at Zhang Yixing. This man was truly determined to pursue the Tao.
Looking back at the palace, Qiao Yuanshan also strengthened his determination to seek the truth at this moment. He wanted to be like that figure in his life.
Transcend the heaven and earth, and seek immortality.
………
In the palace, people fled and the earth was broken.
A huge headless body crawled out from the seal, and the huge body stretched out its hands to grab the deformed head.
Where the body and the head met, countless scarlet tentacles like blood connected, and a huge giant appeared in the palace.
It is covered with dry vines, and its entire body seems to have grown together with the entire city.
At this time, Li Mubai and others had already rushed out of the palace.
As soon as they left the palace, the monks saw the corpses of evil spirits all over the ground.
It was like entering a huge battlefield.
A man in black led the disciples who were practicing the form-transforming spirit to stand on the corpse. After seeing Li Mubai, the man in black was the first to speak: "Long time no see, my cheap senior brother."
A murderous aura surrounded Wen Zhengming, as if to indicate who had killed the corpses all over the ground.
