Chapter three hundred and sixty fourth
It was not until this time that Xia Sheng finally realized that he had thought it was a mess from the beginning.
It is not accidental whether it is the broken knife of an unpredictable origin, the dilapidated wine cellar, the lightning everywhere in the sky, or the fire that appears in the human camp.
Once upon a time, when the Jinyuan Secret Realm first appeared more than a hundred years ago, the first batch of Taoist predecessors who entered it to explore did not find the dangers there. Most of the records they wrote in the divine scriptures describe the dazzling wealth in the Jinyuan Secret Realm.
Even if the nearly 100 disciples from the Seventy-Two Alliance were the first to enter the Jinyuan Secret Realm a few days ago, the nearly 100 disciples from the 72nd Alliance stayed here for so long and even established a base camp for logistics and supplies, and had never been threatened by foreign enemies.
But when Xia Sheng and his group came here, so many strange things happened.
why is that?
Xia Sheng had never thought about this question seriously before, but now, he finally got the answer.
When Xia Sheng saw this golden tower, he thought of this possibility, but such speculation was too incredible and too unbelievable that even an old monster like him, who had been stormy for a long time, did not dare to draw a conclusion on this. Until he touched the rune marks on the wall of the tower again, he finally realized that the truth of the facts was really that simple.
Since the moment he stepped into this place, people have been reminding him of this matter, but until now, he has only formed the broken afterimages into a complete picture.
It’s just a bit regrettable that twenty-one innocent lives were paid for this.
Xia Sheng has never been a cold-blooded person, but now that things have come to this point, there is no room for recovery. The only thing he can do is to stop the killing that has just begun.
So the next moment, Xia Sheng carefully attached all his mind to the golden wall, took out the golden seed deep in his soul, and landed on the only blank space among the runes all over the wall.
“Buzz…buzz…”
Almost at the same moment, the entire golden tower began to tremble rapidly. The rune scratches on the wall seemed to come alive, like slow-moving earthworms, constantly changing in front of Xia Sheng's eyes.
For the others who were about to set up camp outside the tower at this time, they seemed to feel an ancient giant beast gradually awakening from the age of time. The powerful oppression was coming like a tide, which made them dare not even breathe.
Hua Rufei took the lead in holding the long sword in his hand, and inspired a complex sword-shaped talisman from his wrist, turning into a blue shadow, piercing the top of the golden tower!
"Bang!"
However, before Hua Rufei approached the Golden Tower, she was hit hard by an invisible force, which directly lifted him from the air for nearly ten feet, and then landed on the ground in a rather embarrassing manner.
This heart-wrenching roar lasted nearly half of the incense stick before gradually stopping, and at the same time, a scream came from not far away.
"Old Bai! What's wrong with you, Lao Bai!"
Hearing this, Hua Rufei immediately rushed forward, and soon followed the sound to the crowd and said in a deep voice: "What's going on?"
After the words came, everyone saw the eyes separated from both sides in horror. The three people with different expressions were revealed in the middle, two of whom were squatting on the ground with sad expressions, while the other person widened their eyes and did not move.
It's dead again.
And the artery was cut from the neck.
The deceased stopped breathing without leaving a single last word.
I die with my eyes open.
Seeing this scene, Hua Rufei felt cold in his heart. He never expected that when everyone was alert, the murderer could kill someone for the second time in front of everyone!
What the other party used was nothing more than the panic and loss of consciousness in the past.
Such an enemy is really terrible!
What's even more terrifying is that Hua Rufei and others still don't know where the enemy comes from, and they don't even touch the shadow of the enemy!
Such assassination is no longer a simple killing, but a performance full of artistic atmosphere.
It just brings endless fear and despair to its audience.
The shadow of death shattered the last reason of many people. Zhou Hao didn't care about Xia Sheng's warning before. He threw Zhang Tiancheng to Jiang Qiqi to take care of him. Then he came to Hua Rufei in fear and said anxiously: "Senior Brother Hua, look. Why don't we evacuate from the secret realm first, and wait until we gather more power and make more sufficient preparations before coming in."
Hua Rufei glanced at Zhou Hao coldly and said in a deep voice: "No! I must catch the murderer who killed Junior Brother Chen and give an explanation to the sect!"
Looking at Hua Rufei's resolute gaze, Zhou Hao secretly complained in his heart, but was inconvenient to persuade him. He could only hide in the crowd alone. It was not that he didn't want to leave the Jinyuan Secret Realm alone, but in the current situation, he did not have the courage to leave the large army and turn back to the exit of the Secret Realm alone.
And it was at this moment that Xia Sheng suddenly walked out of the golden pagoda.
Seeing this, Hua Rufei took the lead in meeting him. Although he had greatly restrained the anger in his heart, his tone was inevitably a little stiff: "What happened just now?"
In response, Xia Sheng just shrugged and explained: "I don't know either. It seems that I accidentally triggered some mechanism, causing the entire Jinta to shake violently. But it's strange that the mechanism also seems to be loud and thunder, and there is not much danger. It's more like a warning to the invaders."
Hua Rufei stared at Xia Sheng with a gloomy look, but he could not tell whether the other party was telling the truth. He could only say in a deep voice: "Just just now, we lost another companion, which is exactly the same as Junior Brother Chen's death before!"
After the words came to the end, Xia Sheng was also stunned, then frowned and came to the deceased, leaning over and looking at the fatal scars in the other person's throat.
Then he let out a heavy breath and said, "It seems that someone is hunting us."
Hua Rufei did not buy this statement, but said sternly: "This kind of thing has never happened before meeting you. Now I must doubt what your relationship is with the murderer!"
Xia Sheng was dark in his heart. He didn't expect Hua Rufei to have such a sharp insight, but he smiled slightly on his face: "As you can see, I was not present at the time of the incident, and my only companion was always waiting by Brother Zhang's side. I want to ask you, what can this matter have to do with us?"
Hua Rufei sneered: "Is that true? No matter what you say, in order not to have a bigger misunderstanding, I think we should go separately. I hope you and the other two will not follow us anymore."
Xia Sheng raised his eyebrows lightly and was about to say something, but suddenly heard a shocking rumbling sound coming from afar. Even the ground was clattered, and everyone present changed their faces.
This is not the thunder that Xia Sheng had heard before, but more like...
The sound of the rushing footsteps of thousands of beasts!
