Chapter 87 Blood Pool
Wu Feng was ready to die, and the iron hammer and the iron cone were about to collide. However, the hands of the Thunder King statue suddenly stopped. A thin crack first cracked from his waist, which became bigger and bigger, and finally the entire upper body fell down.
The waves of air swept over with sand and soil. Wu Feng turned his head and blocked his face with his hands. When he opened his eyes again, the chaotic world had disappeared. There was a valley under his feet, and a circle of cliffs above him. He returned to his previous place.
"Are you coming out?"
Wu Feng stood in the valley and looked up at the surroundings. Just when he was uncertain, the golden vortex appeared again. Bai Sanxiao rushed out with his people, a little embarrassed. When he entered, there were only six of them now.
"I didn't expect that you, you, were the ones who broke out of the seclusion first." Bai Sanxiao squeezed out a smile. The five young leaders of the city lord's mansion behind him sat on the ground, and the consumption was not low.
"Young City Lord!" Wu Feng hurriedly walked up to him and bowed, looked at the others, frowned slightly.
Bai Sanxiao shook his head, "Four failed to come out."
As soon as the words were finished, three vortexes of green, red and gray appeared again. Leng Lan'er, Yang Lei, and Zhou Hai rushed out with people. Like the city lord's mansion, there were casualties, especially Zhou Hai, where only three people were left behind him.
Five of the six paths had been broken through, leaving only one water channel. Wu Feng's fist became tighter and tighter as time passed.
"Don't worry, that stupid guy is fine." Zhou Hai walked to Wu Feng and patted his shoulder.
Finally, a transparent vortex spread out from the cliff. The vortex shook violently, and then several burly figures were thrown out. Wu Feng rushed forward with a quick glance. Wang Hong's face turned pale. Not only did he consume too much soul power, but he was also soaked in water.
"Damn it, I almost drowned in it." Wang Hong stood up and smiled. The process was very difficult, but he finally managed to break the barrier and was quite excited.
"Is it okay?" Wu Feng punched Wang Hong's chest, and the stone in his heart fell down. Then he looked at the figures behind him, "Five of them didn't come out?"
Wang Hong looked back and saw the excitement disappear, and nodded heavily.
"It's not the time to be sad. The six paths have been completely broken. Everyone should look for the mechanism to open the tomb." Bai Sanxiao took a deep breath and shouted.
Everyone put away their sadness and stood up again. However, before they could start looking, the bottom of the valley swayed gently, and the more intense the shaking, the gravel rolled down from the surrounding cliffs, like an earthquake. Fortunately, the whole process lasted not long, and after a few breaths, the waves became calm.
As soon as he rushed out of the six paths, he experienced another inexplicable earthquake. Everyone's nerves collapsed to the limit. After a moment, someone exclaimed.
"Look, there is a stone door!"
Everyone looked at it in amazement and there was a stone door open at the southwest corner of the valley at some point.
"Everyone be careful and come in!"
Bai Sanxiao frowned for a moment, then walked in, while everyone was fully alert and followed. When the last person stepped over the threshold, the stone gate closed with a loud bang.
Inside the stone gate, it was cold, wet, and it was pitch black. Everyone took out the fire and frowned.
"Why don't I feel like the tomb of the Soul King?"
"That's right, let alone coffins, there's nothing but a brazier."
The brazier is at the center of the cave, without a base, and is pulled by six iron chains as thick as wrists. One end of the iron chain locks the brazier and the other end is deeply embedded in the wall of the cave.
Bai Sanxiao walked to the brazier and lit it. The dark cave was finally illuminated. Wu Feng hurriedly looked around. The mountain spring left thick moss on the cold cave wall, making this empty cave even more gloomy and desolate.
"Everyone looks for it separately, there must be an organization."
Bai Sanxiao gave the order, and everyone began to fumble carefully, not letting go of a crack or a stone, but after a long time, nothing was found.
"Damn it, after so many people were broken, it turned out to be such a broken place!" Wang Hong punched the hole wall, furious.
"No one forced you to come." Yang Lei said coldly, continuing to grop on a cave wall.
"You little sword-playing guy, I have the will to say it again." Wang Hong widened his eyes and was about to rush forward, but was stopped by Bai Sanxiao.
"Look at the agency now."
Wu Feng also walked up and pulled Wang Hong aside. The latter was so angry that he kicked the fire in the center.
The brazier rolled, crackling and thudding, and the iron chains trembled. Everyone turned their eyes to Wang Hong's angry back, and the next second he was shocked and looked sideways because the crisp sound of the stone bursting began.
The iron chains were shaking more and more violently. After the crisp explosion sounded, spider-web-like cracks began to appear at the wall of the hole connecting the iron chains. The cracks became bigger and bigger. After a moment, all of them broke with a rumbling sound. Liquid with a pungent smell surged out, like a flood that rushed open the gate.
Everyone gathered together, the brazier was kicked over and the fire was twisted. Under the dim light, the pungent and fishy liquid disappeared into the calf in the blink of an eye.
"It's blood!"
I don’t know who exclaimed, but this was not the reason why Wu Feng was terrified. He clearly felt something climbing onto his calf.
"Be careful, there is something in the blood."
Before he finished speaking, a few screams rang out.
"Quick, everyone jump on it."
Everyone rushed to the cave wall. Fortunately, it was bumpy and finally escaped from the blood. However, their faces were extremely ugly. The people who had screamed before gradually fell into the blood. They wanted to scream but couldn't scream. In the end, the whole face was twisted, and there seemed to be bugs drilling under the skin, one by one.
Soon, the blood completely submerged the people and it was still skyrocketing.
"What should I do? It's not a problem to continue like this. It won't take long to get blood rising?" Zhou Hai was extremely frightened.
"Damn, what's underneath?" Wang Hong cursed with a frown.
Fear enveloped everyone's heart, but there was strange blood below, and there were thick cave walls around and above the head, and there was nowhere to escape.
Wu Feng was also very frightened. At this time, the blood was less than half a meter below his feet. Under the dim fire, dense insects were swimming in the blood. The slap was long, the thumb was thick, and the fleshy, without a head or a tail.
"Someone needs to lead these insects away so that others can get underwater and go out of the stone gate." Bai San shouted with a smile.
"I am willing to go." Several people from the city lord's mansion did not hesitate.
"Young Pavilion Master, let's go and pull out the insects."
"Your Majesty, you will leave first later."
The blood was already close to the soles of his feet, so he had to throw the car to protect his handsomeness. Bai Sanxiao nodded to the person who took the initiative to sacrifice himself. The next second, the latter jumped down one after another and swam forward hard. Countless poisonous insects immediately surrounded the food like fish in the pond.
"Let's go!" Bai Sanxiao shouted loudly, jumped into the blood first, and the others followed closely. They lost the fire twist, and there was a darkness in their vision. Fortunately, everyone touched the edge of the stone gate, but to their surprise, the stone gate could not be opened at all.
The sound of water struggling behind him became less and less, and finally he calmed down completely. The poisonous insects smelled new food and swam all back. In desperation, some followers took the initiative to swim back and used their flesh and blood to buy time for their young master.
Wang Hong pushed everyone away, clenched his fists together, and smashed heavily at the stone gate, but most of the power was removed by the blood and was not enough to break the door.
A soul power was urged out, and the waves were raised above the blood and rushed straight to the top of the cave. Bai Sanxiao slapped him with all his strength, but the stone gate was nothing but a rumbling sound.
Leng Lan'er, Zhou Hai, and Yang Lei also tried to open the stone gate, but they all returned in vain. At this time, the movement behind them disappeared again and the poisonous insects made a comeback.
At the moment of great tremor, one powerful soul power after another blasted towards the stone gate. After a few breaths, the muffled explosion finally sounded in everyone's ears, but this hope came a little late.
Regarding the strong soul power, Wu Feng was not the turn of action. He was at the end and felt a poisonous insect crawling into his clothes. However, to his surprise, the poisonous insect was just attached to the skin and did not crawl into it.
"This bug was just lying on my calves before and never penetrated into my body. Do you think I have low cultivation?"
Wu Feng was overjoyed and confused again, his vision was dark, but the dull sound of his soul power hitting the stone gate was clear. The next second, he bit his teeth and swam around.
Another wave of soul power was blasted out, and a thin light finally shot into the blood. Then the stone gate shattered, and everyone was directly driven out by the discharge of the flood.
Blood was pouring, and everyone had no time to breathe, and they activated their soul power and jumped up by the cliff with the intertwined teeth. When they stood on the top of the mountain, the bottom of the valley under their feet had turned into a red blood pool.
After the disaster, everyone was not happy. When they came, they had dozens of bodies, but now there were only five people, Bai Sanxiao, Leng Lan'er, Yang Lei, Zhou Hai, and Wang Hong.
Wang Hong wiped the blood from his face, his eyes swept over quickly, and his thick eyebrows frowned.
"Where is Wu Feng?!"
Wang Hong bit his teeth and was about to rush down the deep pit, but Zhou Hai hugged him.
"Don't pull me!"
Wang Hong struggled like crazy. Zhou Hai could not tie him up. Seeing this, Bai Sanxiao chopped Wang Hong's back neck and knocked him out.
"The news about the Soul King's tomb comes from Fengyue Pavilion. Should the young master give us an explanation?" Yang Lei said coldly.
Leng Lan'er looked over and said, "No one of my people came out, what explanation do you want?"
"I initiated the exploration of the tomb, and I will also bear the responsibility. I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation." Bai Sanxiao could no longer laugh. After apologizing to everyone, his face was gloomy and terrible. "Please ask the young master to go back and check thoroughly what the seller of the Soul King's tomb came from."
"Okay!" Leng Lan'er clenched her head.
Bai Sanxiao turned around and left. Leng Lan'er and Yang Lei were hostile to each other. Zhou Hai looked at the Blood Pond and then carried Wang Hong who was several times bigger than him. This trip to the Four Master Sects and Leng Yue Pavilion lost a total of fifty soul masters, and they were all the best among the younger generation. The price was extremely painful.
