Chapter 7
In the valley, there is a very simple palace gate, which is ethereal and appears and disappears.
There is a simple gray light shining above the palace door, and there is a breath of time flowing in it, which makes it look extremely extraordinary.
In front of this illusory palace door, stood dozens of human monks wearing black robes.
Each monk holds a formation disk in his hand. From the formation disk, spiritual light is constantly flying out and blending into the looming palace door.
Under the influence of these spiritual lights, it can be clearly felt that the gray light above the palace door is slowly being worn away, and the entity of the palace door is gradually solidifying.
These monks should be the underworld monks that Lu Qingshan mentioned.
The Western Rat King secretly thought about it, no longer thinking about it, and following Lu Qingshan's instructions, he took out the photo beads and silently recorded the scene in front of him.
After a while, King Xishu put away the photo beads, felt satisfied, and was about to leave.
It was at this moment that some movement occurred in the valley, causing King Xishu to freeze for a moment.
In its keen perception, just at that moment, it actually felt that there was a weak but unusual aura fluctuation in one of the black-robed monks.
.
King Xishu is still not sure whether it is his illusion or a real aura fluctuation.
But the next moment, King Xishu understood clearly.
Because, by coincidence, the black-robed monk stopped what he was doing, said something to the monsters entrenched in the valley, and then left the valley just like that.
"There must be a ghost!" King Xishu noticed the clues, but hesitated a little, "Do you want to follow me to see what's going on?"
After hesitating for a moment, King Xishu finally couldn't hold back his curiosity.
"As long as I'm careful, I shouldn't be discovered..." King Xishu comforted himself in his heart and started to take action.
It jumped down from the ancient tree where it was hiding, and turned into a gray shadow, hanging fearfully behind the black-robed monk.
But what King Xishu didn't know was that just after it followed the black-robed monk, in the valley, the black mouse that seemed to be concentrating with its eyes closed suddenly opened its eyes and stared in the direction in which King Xishu was leaving.
, the wings of the nose move slightly.
"Is this the aura of my rat demon lineage?"
The breed of black rat is the gold-devouring rat. The gold-devouring rat can devour metal ores, absorb the energy in the ores, and continuously evolve. It is an extremely rare bloodline of the rat demon.
In addition to the ability to swallow metal ore, the gold-eating rat also has the ability to detect mineral veins with one hand, relying on its innate nose sense and ability to perceive metal minerals.
And just now, when the Western Rat King flashed past, it smelled the scent that belongs to the lineage of rat demons.
"This is a forbidden area. After many investigations by our Demon Spirit Palace and that group of humans, how could the aura of a strange rat demon suddenly appear?" Black Rat was a little confused, but he did not directly inform others of his discovery.
I made an excuse and followed the faint breath that was about to fade away in the air, and looked for it.
King Xishu followed the black-robed monk for a very long way, all the way to the back of the valley.
King Xishu glanced at the empty rock wall in front of him in confusion. There were dense scratches on the rock wall, as if they had been scratched with a tool.
Other than that, everything was normal and nothing unusual existed.
"Why are there no people?"
Because he was worried about being discovered, King Xishu always kept a very far distance from the black-robed monk, relying only on his superior perception ability to hang far behind.
But the breath of the black-robed monk disappeared here very strangely.
"Huh?" King Xishu scratched his head, "Did you lose him?"
Boom!
At this moment, a dull voice suddenly sounded.
Before King Xishu could react, he felt a huge force clamping down on it, and then it turned into a gray shadow and quickly merged into a rock on the side, hiding its figure.
And at the next moment, waves of ripples suddenly flashed on the plain rock wall, and a purple halo slowly spread.
King Xishu widened his eyes.
It has seen this scene before and it looks very familiar!
This is exactly the same as the scene when the Void Demon activates his space teleportation ability!
Then, the black-robed monk who had just disappeared and dozens of strange human monks appeared from the purple circle of light.
At the same time, a fierce killing energy burst out from the purple circle of light, leaving several marks on the stone wall.
King Xishu could even catch a glimpse of the scene inside the aperture, which was a dark and gloomy hall. There were several jade pillars in the hall, and many ancient demon characters were carved on the jade pillars.
"What's going on?" The black-robed monk put away the purple orb in his hand, and then the purple halo on the stone wall disappeared.
"We have found the tomb of King Gengjin Tiger. However, there are several layers of powerful barriers outside his tomb. It will take some time for us to break through." One of the monks in purple stepped forward and responded.
"If we speed up the process a little more, we won't be able to delay it too long on the front side. At most, we can buy you another half month to a month.
If the delay continues, those beasts in the Demon Spirit Palace, even if they have no brains, will probably be able to tell that something is wrong." The black-robed monk said sharply.
"The murderous aura exuded by the Gengjin Tiger King is so strong that every once in a while, we have to leave the tomb, otherwise we will lose our consciousness. This has seriously slowed down our exploration.
Progress." The purple-clothed monk explained.
Looking around, we can see that the dozens of human monks have eyes that are all scarlet!
...
However, at this time, King Xishu had no intention of paying more attention to these underworld monks. Instead, he turned back among the difficult rocks to see what he had been captured by.
Just by turning his head like this, King Xishu was frightened to death.
It turned out to be the black rat demon that I had glimpsed in the valley before!
The rat demon made a silent gesture to the Western Rat King.
King Xishu cooperated very understandingly.
…
Time passed slowly, and for King Xishu, every minute and every second was like suffering.
Finally, after half a day, when the scarlet color in the eyes of the purple-robed monks dissipated and their clarity returned, the black-robed monks took out the purple spirit bead again, and a purple halo appeared in the stone wall again.
"Time is running out, you must complete the task as soon as possible!" The black-robed monk said in a very gloomy tone.
"Understood!" The monk in purple responded softly, and then filed in one by one.
When the last person entered the hall within the circle of light, the black-robed monk put away the spirit beads, and his figure turned into a stream of light and disappeared in front of the stone wall.
After a while.
thump!
Two rat demons squeezed out from the rocks.
The eyes of the black rat were full of inexplicable meanings. He looked at the Western Rat King and asked suspiciously: "What kind of rat demon are you? And why do you feel that you have never seen it in the Demon Spirit Mountain Range before?"
The anxious heart of the Western Rat King was immediately relieved. He was good at observing words and emotions, and he could immediately see that this black rat probably didn't have any bad intentions towards him.
"I don't know very well..." The West Rat King's acting skills exploded, and he said with trembling teeth: "I have never seen you, the Rat King, in the Demon Spirit Mountains before..."
Black Rat pondered for a moment, and when he saw King Xi Mouse shivering, he stretched out his mouse paw and rubbed the red mane on King Xi Mouse's head, and comforted him: "Don't be afraid, my name is Shu Batian.
He is the strongest rat demon among the rat demons in the Demon Spirit Mountains.
Our rat demon lineage has always been weak and we are at the bottom of the demon beast food chain, so we need to support each other very much.
After I advanced to the third level, I have been protecting the weak rat demon lineage.
Although I don’t know what kind of rat demon you are, it looks very supernatural and not a mortal thing.
In this way, if you stay with me from now on, you may be able to cultivate another third-grade monster of the rat demon lineage."
"Zhizhizhi." The Western Rat King responded weakly and helplessly, not daring to object.
Rat Batian nodded with satisfaction.
"Where did those human races come from just now?" The resigned King Xishu changed his mind and immediately pointed to the place where the underworld monks disappeared just now, and asked with an innocent look on his face.
