Volume 1 Chapter 279 Nine Stone Gates
Gu Xiao, Shen Suhua, Fang Qingcheng and others looked at each other.
This secret tomb is indeed extraordinary, even this evil ghost is so difficult to deal with.
Gu Xiao frowned: "Since it is something in this ancient tomb, there must be something in it that can restrain him."
He looked around.
Suddenly, not far ahead, a stone gate stood.
The stone door is carved with complicated patterns, which looks extremely mysterious and reveals an indescribable weird feeling.
Gu Xiao's thoughts moved slightly and he walked over to take a look.
I saw two copper bells hanging on the stone door. The breeze blew and the copper bells swayed and rang.
Then I heard a 'wuwu' sound coming from behind the stone door.
Everyone looked behind them warily.
Soon, I saw a passage extending out.
Gu Xiao made a quick decision: "I'll go explore the way first."
Shen Suhua and Fang Qingcheng nodded: "Be careful!"
Gu Xiao turned around and walked into the stone door.
The stone door slowly closed.
Everything returned to silence.
…
As soon as Gu Xiao stepped into the passage, a putrid smell hit his nose.
The smell is really strong.
It makes people want to vomit.
Fortunately, he had been abstinent for many years, otherwise he would have been fainted from the smoke.
After finally adapting, Gu Xiao continued to move forward.
After passing through the long passage, he came to the end.
My eyes suddenly open up!
It turned out to be a grand hall!
Gu Xiao stood in the center of the hall, looked around and found nothing.
But he knew that the time of real danger had finally arrived.
At this moment, a piece of white powder suddenly fell from the top of the hall!
Gu Xiao's expression changed and he quickly retreated.
Bang--!
The powder fell at his feet and burned instantly.
The fire spread quickly and filled the entire hall in the blink of an eye.
Gu Xiao gritted his teeth and rushed to the corner, trying to extinguish the candle on the wall.
But the candle's oil has long been exhausted, how can it be lit again?
The fire quickly engulfed the entire hall.
The flames licked every inch of the land crazily, and soon the entire house was burned to ashes.
Gu Xiao raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.
This scene is so terrifying, a hundred times scarier than the zombie attacks in movies.
Gu Xiao thought to himself: "It seems that the owner of this secret realm is not dead, but has used some special method to seal all living creatures in the secret realm."
Now he triggered the ban and detonated the poisonous gas that had been buried in the secret for many years. Therefore, the owner of the secret was angry and set off this fire to kill all the intruders.
No, we must find a way to break this fire.
Gu Xiao thought for a long time and finally decided to remain unchanged in the face of ever-changing changes!
Anyway, now that he is fasting, he will not starve to death even if he stays here for a few days.
What's more, there are still many relatives and friends outside the secret realm who need to be protected, so we must not sit still and wait for death!
Gu Xiao returned to his original position in the main hall and sat down cross-legged.
Soon, he was immersed in cultivation.
After an unknown amount of time, the flames gradually extinguished.
Gu Xiao opened his eyes and found that he was full of energy and energetic.
"Huh? It's okay?" Gu Xiao raised his eyebrows, looking very surprised.
He remembered that the fire set off by the owner of the secret realm had a temperature of at least a thousand degrees!
Not to mention ordinary people, even if they have practiced martial arts for many years and have strong physical bodies, they will be injured or even lose their lives if they encounter them.
But he was safe and sound.
Gu Xiao became more and more convinced of his judgment.
At this moment, he vaguely heard someone whispering deep in the hall.
Gu Xiao's eyes flickered.
He stood up and slowly groped towards the source of the sound.
Not long after, Gu Xiao stopped and stared ahead in stunned silence.
About twenty or thirty meters away from him, he saw a shriveled and stiff corpse of a man lying there.
This male corpse was tall and burly, with strong muscles and handsome and resolute features. He looked very much like a general.
Unfortunately, his body was covered with scars and his skin was dry and dehydrated, making him look particularly desolate.
Gu Xiao squatted down and took a closer look, and found a dark cave in his neck.
He looked along the cave and found a huge animal skin at the bottom of the cave.
This animal skin is completely different from ordinary animal skin. The surface is uneven, as if it is made of some kind of metal.
Gu Xiao narrowed his eyes and reached out to touch the animal skin, feeling a little cold.
"It seems like there should be some kind of treasure stored in here."
He picked up the animal skin.
Suddenly, a cold air surged out from the animal skin and went straight into his palm, making him shiver uncontrollably.
"What a powerful evil spirit!"
Gu Xiao felt awe-struck and stepped up his movements.
At this moment, the low and sinister laughter sounded again in the cave.
At the same time, the cold air emanating from the animal skin became more obvious, almost suffocating.
Gu Xiao's head felt dizzy, and his legs went weak and he almost fell to his knees.
He quickly held his breath and concentrated his energy, channeling the spiritual power of his Dantian to resist this erosion.
"Jie Jie Jie——! Little guy, keep your things! I will spare your life!"
Before he finished speaking, a huge pressure suddenly came over him.
With a loud bang, Gu Xiao was immediately thrown away and fell to the ground.
Blood oozed from the corners of his mouth, and a look of pain appeared in his eyes.
Gu Xiao struggled to get up and looked up.
About a few feet away from him, there was a ball of black fog hovering.
A powerful and terrifying aura emanated from the fog ball.
Although this fog ball is just a shadow, it still feels so scary.
Even immortal cultivators like Gu Xiao were forced into a state of panic by it.
"What the hell is this guy? Why does it feel like a ghost? But ghosts don't exist in this world!" Gu Xiao muttered to himself.
He stared at the fog ball in front of him, a look of warning appearing in his eyes.
The fog ball rotated slowly and let out a harsh laugh: "Hehehe... Boy, you are very courageous. How dare you, a mere mortal, break into my secret realm!"
When Gu Xiao heard this, his heart sank: "You are indeed a monster!"
Wu Qiu let out a jeering laugh: "As expected of the person I chose, he actually guessed my identity!"
"Are you the master of the secret realm?" Gu Xiao asked.
"Yes! I am the owner of this secret realm!"
Gu Xiao raised his eyebrows, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Humans have actually lived here before?"
Wu Qiu let out a sinister laugh: "Hehehe...don't you humans just like to bully the weak?"
"Are we bullying the weak?" Gu Xiao sneered, "It's obviously you beasts who rob other people's things, which is the most shameful thing!"
He sneered and said: "Not only did you take away other people's longevity and spiritual energy, but you also trapped them in the secret realm and tortured them to death. It is a heinous crime!"
"Hmph!" Wu Qiu sneered: "Human beings are despicable and cunning, why do you accuse us?"
Gu Xiao said indifferently: "I saw these with my own eyes!"
