Chapter 121 Come on, break the formation!
The monster horns on both sides of the stone bridge began to shed debris. After a while, those stone-like monster horns turned into sinister and ferocious human-like bats, with huge wings expanded. The dark naked skeleton frame was sinister and terrifying. Their eyes were as red as blood. They stared at Qi Rong with sharp fangs, roared, and pounced on him.
Qi Rong just glanced at them lightly, tapped the ground with his toes and flew up, and easily avoided the attacks of the bat monsters with a few turns. He spread out his five fingers and a cold sword emitting a light white halo suddenly appeared in his palm. The sword energy opened and closed, and instantly chopped the attacking bat monsters into pieces.
But in the next moment, those broken rocks reassembled into a human-shaped bat monster and pounced on him again.
Qi Rong sighed softly, sheathed his cold sword, turned around, and leaped rapidly towards the other end of the stone bridge. The human-like bat monsters behind him were chasing him relentlessly, and there were more and more of them. Qi Rong continued to run forward without moving, waiting for the moment when he was about to step onto the shore. He suddenly turned around, and countless transparent silk threads as thin as cicada wings shot out from his fingertips.
Those silk threads seemed to have their own consciousness and dodged the attacks of the human-body bats, directly piercing their red eyes. However, after those blood-red eyes were shattered, those human-body bats collapsed on their own, their bodies frequently made cracking sounds, cracks exploded one after another, and then broke into pieces with a "bang".
Qi Rong landed on the other side and casually shook off the dust that had stained him.
There was nothing on the other side except a big tree.
Qi Rong slowly walked to the big tree. The dark red leaves exuded a depressing color, and a thick, unsettling smell surrounded the tree. Qi Rong reached out and touched the thick bark, and immediately knew that this was a vessel for refining something.
Could it be related to the 'curse'?
He formed seals with his fingertips, emitting spiritual energy that enveloped the black and red tree. He closed his eyes slightly and sensed the tree's core - a twisted and painful soul, a hideous and angry roar, and countless hands that wanted to break free from the sea of suffering but were powerless to do so.
Qi Rong was shocked: "This is..."
…
…
The ice-blue arrow feathers instantly killed an ugly monster.
'Host, be careful to the left!'
"What the hell are these?"
Bai Xiaoxiao touched the ground with her toes and flew into the air. She pulled the bowstring again and aimed at a zombie puppet that was about to pounce on her again, and struck it hard.
"The host is awesome!"
666 flapped its wings and applauded around Bai Xiaoxiao.
Bai Xiaoxiao fanned it in disdain.
Originally, the entire space was filled with thick fog. She used magic to disperse the fog and found herself standing in a palace built of bronze and quarried stones. However, it was crooked and a bit shabby. Before she could take a closer look, she was surrounded by many zombie-like puppets.
And such puppets cannot be killed!
"These man-made puppets will continue to reproduce as long as there is energy. To kill them, you must destroy the energy source. But here—this entire palace is a huge energy field. The puppets here are impossible to kill!"
666 floated beside her and analyzed.
Bai Xiaoxiao looked at the zombie puppets that were gradually surrounding her from all sides. "So, all we have to do is destroy this palace, right?"
666 said urgently: "Host, this is bronze quarrying, the most solid rock in the world of immortal cultivation. Not to mention you, even if your third senior brother came, he would be trapped for a long time. Unless Immortal Master Miaoqing comes in person, there is no way."
"Then find a place that's not built with bronze quarrying or stone. Immortal Master Miaoqing is not here, but her disciple is here, and they can still survive."
Bai Xiaoxiao flew in the air with her sword. The ground where she had just landed was occupied by zombie puppets in a short while. The number of zombie puppets was increasing all the time. Some zombie puppets began to climb the beams and columns next to them, and it seemed that they were going to launch an attack.
Five night pearls were suddenly thrown out from the mustard seed space, floating to different parts of the palace to illuminate the entire place. The densely packed zombie heads were close together, their empty and dark eyes all raised up and stared at her, with no gaps between them. It was extremely depressing, and she couldn't help but get goose bumps.
'Host, be careful!'
666's warning allowed Bai Xiaoxiao to dodge a zombie puppet that was charging at her. Meanwhile, she kept scanning her surroundings.
There were densely packed zombie puppets underneath, but before they all crowded up, she saw that the floor was paved with bronze quarrying, which meant that drilling into the ground was not an option.
The surrounding columns were also made of bronze, and appeared pitch black from a distance. However, there was no need to verify each one, as she had never seen columns made of different materials, only socks of different colors.
So,
Only the roof remained...
Bai Xiaoxiao hid from the zombie puppets that were attacking her and raised her head. To be honest, she had been trapped in this palace for so long and she had never seen the roof. It was also pitch black with no light, and...
"Host, you must think carefully."
666 warned her, "Flying upwards is very dangerous. If the roof is also built with bronze quarrying, you will have no way to escape. With the current trend of the zombie golems spreading, once you reach the top, they will block your escape like a rising tide. At that time, you will only be devoured by the zombie golems."
"That's better than being trapped here and dying."
Bai Xiaoxiao drew her bow and fired again.
Countless ice-blue arrows shot towards the zombie puppets like rain in a rainstorm. All the zombie puppets that were closer were smashed into pieces, leaving her with a lot of space. Bai Xiaoxiao took advantage of this opportunity to fly upwards quickly, and the five night pearls followed her to illuminate together.
The tide of zombie puppets beneath her was also surging violently. She didn't look down, for fear that her claustrophobia would make her legs weak.
She continued to fly.
But the zombie puppets under her feet were growing faster and faster, almost on par with her.
Bai Xiaoxiao let out a light click, gathered up a huge spiritual energy and shrank it into a point, then suddenly threw it upwards.
"Boom—"
A huge explosion sounded.
Bai Xiaoxiao quickly flew out of the palace.
Things turned out just as she thought. Those zombie puppets were just products of some kind of formation. As long as they left the palace, they would not be able to chase them out.
She glanced at the zombie heads crowded in front of the hole in the roof, their bulging eyes looking like they were about to burst.
I couldn't help but shiver and flew away quickly.
Walking along the paved stone road, she came to a Bagua door.
The Bagua Gate, which is clearly black and white but blends into each other, keeps rotating, confusing people's eyes.
"The Gate of Life and Death?"
Bai Xiaoxiao knew about this thing.
Tai Chi gives birth to two opposites, two opposites give birth to four symbols, and four symbols give birth to eight trigrams.
You have to find the way out to get out alive.
However, black and white are reversed, and yin and yang are chaotic.
Life is death,
Death is life.
Bai Xiaoxiao looked at the white circle belonging to 'Yin', and silently reached out and pressed on the black circle belonging to 'Yang'.
