Chapter 601 The Imprisoned Guardian
"Didn't we agree to hit the door with all my strength and open it with one hit?" Zhou Wen gritted his teeth and insisted on not letting himself fall to the ground. Then he heard a crackling sound, and the door slowly rose and opened.
Zhou Wen was very skeptical. He thought that it was not necessary to bang on the door with all his strength to open it as Wang Mingyuan said, but Zhou Wen had no evidence.
After the door rose, Zhou Wen saw the scene inside the hall. There were no statues of gods or altars here. There were many stone tablets scattered inside the hall.
There are many strange lines and patterns engraved on each stone tablet, and no one knows what they mean.
Zhou Wen stood outside the door and counted them. Sure enough, they were arranged as written on the paper.
Using his hands alternately as if walking, Zhou Wen followed the route indicated by Wang Mingyuan and entered the array of stone tablets. When passing some stone tablets, Zhou Wen supported himself on the ground with one hand and pressed on the stone tablet with the other hand.
After moving around in the stone tablet array for a while, he finally completed all the movements. The stone tablet turned, and a stone staircase leading to the underground was revealed on the ground.
Zhou Wen hurried onto the stone steps, then he finally breathed a sigh of relief, his feet touched the ground, and he returned to normal.
Looking at the stone steps, he saw that the stone walls on both sides were engraved with patterns whose meanings Zhou Wen did not know. Most of them were simple lines and dots arranged in a certain way.
Keep walking down the stone steps. Not far away, the stone steps turn a corner. There is still a downward stone staircase below, like the stairs in a building.
I kept walking down, and after walking up hundreds of stone steps, I still couldn't see the end. The patterns on the stone wall were still there, and I didn't know what those patterns were for.
When Zhou Wen was wondering if the stone steps would never end and were simply a dead loop, he noticed that the stone steps below were a little different.
The stone steps below turned into jade and emitted a cold air.
Stepping onto the jade steps and continuing to walk down, it didn't take long before reaching the end. Below was a room made of jade. In the center of the room, a black cocoon was suspended.
There were many cracks on the cocoon, and wisps of black gas drifted out from the cracks, but the black gas could not be emitted and was absorbed by the white rings on the black cocoon.
There were seven rings placed on the black cocoon from top to bottom. They looked like they were made of jade and were engraved with mysterious spells.
When Zhou Wen looked at the black cocoon, he suddenly discovered that in one of the gaps, there was a black eye staring at him.
"Human, do you want me to be your contractor?" When Zhou Wen saw those eyes, he heard a vague voice coming from the black cocoon.
"No." Zhou Wen answered without hesitation.
He could naturally see that there was something very problematic about the guardian in the black cocoon.
There was no mythical creature guarding him here, and the black cocoon was obviously imprisoned, which was completely different from the guardian Zhou Wen had seen before.
"Human, don't you want to gain powerful strength? As long as you sign a contract with me, you can gain extremely powerful strength and be promoted to the mythical level." The voice from the black cocoon came out again.
"If your power is really that strong, you wouldn't be imprisoned here." Zhou Wen said this, but in his heart he was secretly thinking: "Who has such great ability to imprison a guardian here? Is it a human? I'm afraid humans don't have such powerful abilities."
After hearing Zhou Wen's words, the guardian inside the black cocoon seemed to become irritable, and a large amount of black demonic energy poured out from the cracks. Because it absorbed too much demonic energy, even the jade rings that were originally white jade turned black.
"Human, I am the strongest guardian. No one can imprison me. I imprison myself." The voice of Black Cocoon came again.
"Then why do you imprison yourself?" Zhou Wen naturally didn't believe what he said.
"You don't need to know the reason. You just need to know that after signing a contract with me, you will become the most powerful human being, and in the future you will become the most powerful existence. That is enough. The power I give you is something you humans can't even imagine in your dreams." The voice said again.
"I heard that signing a guardian contract requires special physique and talent. Are you sure my physique and talent are what you need?" Zhou Wen asked again.
"The fact that you can come here proves that you are qualified to sign a contract with me." said the guardian in the cocoon.
"That sounds nice, but you just want to find a random human to contract with and escape first." Zhou Wen said with a sneer.
"Human, it seems you simply don't understand the magnitude of the opportunity you're about to miss." The cocoon's guardian continued, "Don't you crave power? Don't you want to become humanity's greatest hero? A terrible war is sure to rage in the human world. No one will be spared, and those below the mythical level won't even be able to struggle for survival. Sign a contract with me, and you'll have a fighting chance. Otherwise, you'll face certain death. This is your chance to live."
"Don't exaggerate. I don't believe anything you say." Zhou Wen looked at Hei Jian and asked, "I've been talking for so long, and I still don't know your name?"
"Kill the demon." said the voice from within the black cocoon.
"Silly Demon?" Zhou Wen was slightly stunned. The name sounded a bit strange.
The Killing Demon had obviously heard the mistake in Zhou Wen's voice. Demonic energy surged from the black cocoon, and he shouted in anger, "I am a demon born to kill. I am the Killing Demon."
"So it's the Killer Demon. This name... is so domineering..." Zhou Wen said this, but because of the preconceived impression, the word "Silly Demon" could not be shaken off.
"Human, what have you thought about? As long as you make a contract with me, you can not only survive the horrific war, but also have the opportunity to defeat all the races in the heavens and become the most powerful existence..." the demon killer continued.
"I've seen quite a few guardians, and they're nothing special. They're not as powerful as you say." Zhou Wen had a questioning look on his face.
"Guardians can also be divided into strong and powerful ones. Which guardians have you seen?" Sha Mo didn't quite believe what Zhou Wen said.
"I've seen an angel with six wings. He can open the door to heaven. He looks quite powerful," Zhou Wen said.
"That birdman, I can tear it apart with one hand, it's not worth mentioning at all. After you sign a contract with me, it will be easy to defeat him." The Killer Demon said contemptuously.
Zhou Wen thought to himself, "Just brag. It's not illegal anyway, and I have no way to verify it."
However, Zhou Wen did not say so, and continued: "I have also seen a guardian named Zangxian, who also looks very powerful."
