Chapter forty-one, short-term cooperation
Chapter 41, Short-term Cooperation
As the eighth-rank martial emperor, Zhu Tian is extremely powerful. It is extremely rare for warriors like Sikong Wu who can challenge more and more ranks more and more.
Although the snake-tooth puppet is equivalent to the seventh-grade Martial Emperor's cultivation level, one arm has been deposed and has not been supported for long under Zhu Tian's full-strength offensive.
The exit of the passage was narrow, and Ren Zizhen and Lei Meng did not dare to leave the passage and enter the stone chamber. They could still deal with each other in the passage. Once they entered the stone chamber, facing the siege of Peng Linyu and Feng Dongrou, Zhu Tian and others were watching, and there was no chance of winning at all.
Originally, the two of them hoped that the snake demon puppet would support it for a while and restrain the masters Zhu Tian and Wei Zhuoning. Now, seeing the snake demon puppet's chest shattered under Zhu Tian's fierce attack, the core was destroyed, which shocked Lei Meng and Ren Zizhen. They used powerful killer moves to force Peng Linyu and Feng Dongrou to sniff, and shouted: "Everyone, retreat quickly!"
At this moment, Zhu Tian suddenly said in a deep voice: "Everyone stop!"
Peng Linyu and Feng Dongrou were puzzled for a moment, but under Zhu Tian's power, they both jumped back one meter away. Peng Linyu's mouth twitched a few times and said in a muffled voice: "Zhu Tian, what do you mean? These guys made us trapped here, and dozens of brothers died. Why don't you join forces to cut them alive to avenge your brothers!"
Lei Meng and Ren Zizhen both knew that the changes in the Nine Palaces and Nine Stars Eight Trigrams Formation were mainly in the passage that seemed to be in danger. If you retreat, you might not necessarily return to the original steel giant scorpion puppet stone chamber. What's more, Zhu Tian and others chased him, and the result was the same. Therefore, when he heard Zhu Tian shouting, he stopped and looked at Zhu Tian, the bandit leader, vigilantly, to see what tricks the other party was playing!
Zhu Tian glanced at Peng Linyu lightly: "Even if you kill them, are you sure you will leave here?"
Peng Linyu suddenly became silent. The ancient tomb was strange and dangerous. Tens of thousands of red fire ants outside slaughtered dozens of their martial arts subordinates and had to retreat into the formation gate. Then he encountered the spiral sickle mechanism in the passage and killed five or six of their capable subordinates.
A highly toxic black water was sprayed out from the first stone chamber. Peng Linyu was shot, and his back was corroded into a big hole, leaving a rotten muscle the size of a palm on his back. It was finally possible to remove the venom that invaded his body with the help of Zhu Tian.
And here, if you don’t have Zhu Tian, more than half of them would have stayed here.
Faced with such a terrifying magic circle, Peng Linyu naturally had no confidence that he could leave alive.
Seeing Peng Linyu shut his mouth in disappointment, Zhu Tian turned to Sikong Wu and others and said, "This ancient tomb array is powerful, I believe everyone can't escape, otherwise they wouldn't have come here. If we still fight each other, we will definitely not be able to leave alive. Why don't we join forces to break the array, and calculate other grievances one by one when we leave the ancient tomb?"
Ren Zizhen narrowed his eyes slightly, and after a while, nodded and said, "Zhu Tian is indeed the leader of the 100,000 mountains! Yes, relying on our strength alone, we will definitely not be able to leave the Nine Palaces and Nine Stars Eight Trigrams Formation! If we join forces, with the strength of Zhu Tian and our understanding of the magic array, there is still a chance to break the formation!"
"But who can guarantee that you do not have a second heart? If there is any abnormal movement in the breaking formation, wouldn't we be even more dangerous?" Ren Zizhen continued calmly.
Zhu Tian smiled: "Brother Ren is also a famous Wuhuang powerful man. How could he say such childish words? What is the benefit of killing you? If you don't say something crazy about Zhu, if you really want to take action, it's Zhu, who is enough to solve you. If we are trapped here, if the Black Horn Hou breaks the formation, everyone will be Zhu's amulets. Aren't you?"
Sikong Wu thought for a while before nodding and said, "You are right. If we don't let go of our grudges at this time, we will never have the chance to leave here."
"I guess this little brother is Sikong Wu, the little marquis of Qin Tiancheng!"
Zhu Tian looked at Sikong Wu: "It turns out that it is better to meet than to be famous. The rumored playboy is such a heroic hero. Even Ma Tianfeng is killed in the hands of the little marquis!"
Sikong Wu smiled faintly: "Zhu Kuishou won the award!"
Zhu Tian waved his hand slightly: "This is my heartfelt words. I have been a little confused before. With the reputation of Sikong Ba Wuwei, how could he give birth to such an unbearable dog son!"
"In fact, we don't have any personal grudges, we are just their own masters. It is not our original intention to capture the Jing Iron Mine, but we have no choice but to force the Blue Moon Empire. If we can reach an agreement after we go out and let us stay on this Jing Iron Mine, we may not be unable to live in peace and calm down the war."
Qiu Lianshan sneered and said, "The Jing Iron Mine is the foundation of our Heijiao City. How can you bandits occupy it!"
Zhu Tian smiled and said, "This is Qiu Lianshan, the second son of Heijiao City? In fact, even if we stay in Jingtien Mine, it will not take too long. After all, 100,000 mountains are our foundation. But it is useless to say this now. Leaving here alive is the most important thing!"
Qiu Lianshan is not a person who ignores the overall situation. Relatively speaking, as the second son of the Black Horn Quarter, even if he cannot inherit the position of Marquis in the future, he will be rich and honored throughout his life, or he will make achievements with the support of Hegang City, and find another place to be a marquis and control one side, and he will not want to die here in a frustration.
He thought for a while and said, "Although I have some understanding of the magic circle, the Nine Palaces and Nine Stars and Eight Trigrams Formation has changed a lot and cannot be guessed how you came here, how they triggered the mechanism, and what changes have occurred in the outer tomb. In detail, you may find a slight change pattern of the magic circle, which will increase our chances of leaving."
Feng Dongrou said, "At the time when we were in the outer tomb, our subordinates recognized that this was the Bagua Formation. The stone platform in the center of the outer tomb was the cardinal that closed the magic array. However, after pressing the magic column, the stone platform suddenly left and countless red fire ants the size of fingers surged out."
"At that time, the subordinate who opened the magic array was immediately swallowed up by countless red fire ants, and there were no bones left. Several steel gates fell from all over the stone chamber, and the passages in the coming collapsed, completely sealing all the way out."
Wei Zhuoning's voice was slightly terrified, and he said, "Those red fire ants are extremely powerful and cannot be killed. They swallowed dozens of our men. We were not allowed to enter the formation gate you entered. When we arrived at the first stone chamber, poisonous water was shot out everywhere. Then we arrived here, but we didn't expect you to come in from behind."
Qiu Lianshan asked about some of the details again, and randomly fell into deep thought, muttering to himself: "Qian is a horse, Kun is a cow, Zhen is a dragon, Xun is a chicken, Kan is a pig, Li is a pheasant, Gen is a dog, Dui is a sheep, and the Bagua Formation Gate represents the heaven, earth, Fengshui, Volcano, and Ze. When you come in, the Shengmen should have changed. The passage encounters the knife array, and the stone chamber is poisonous water. It should be the opening door representing Ze in the Dui position, but why do you meet us when you come in from the Shengmen?"
Suddenly, Qiu Lianshan's face changed, pale and bloody at all, and his body trembled slightly: "So we were wrong. We just chose not the Shengmen, but the Jingmen! No, the Jingmen represents water, here is a human-shaped snake demon puppet, the heavenly being... Could it be that the Shengmen representing the Tiantian?"
"The poisonous water you encountered when you came in should be Dui Li Jingmen, from Jingmen to Shengmen. Life is heaven, and there is no way for heaven to be alone. This is definitely Shengmen! But why can you reach Shengmen from Jingmen?"
Qiu Lianshan couldn't figure it out after thinking about it. He hurriedly looked up at the star map above the stone chamber. After counting for a long time, his face turned pale the more he calculated: "Jingyang, go back from the passage. There will be no mechanism in the passage within a moment. Go to the entrance of the passage to see if it is the stone chamber we are coming. Remember not to leave the passage and enter the stone chamber!"
