Everyone looked at what was happening in front of them with fear. The gathering black tornado no longer expanded, and all of them penetrated into the huge mouth.

Click!

As a crisp sound sounded, the huge mouth closed, and a dull sound like thunder rolled out from there, shaking the sand and dust on the surrounding ground slightly. The bats in the caves were all huddled in the caves.

, dare not reveal any figure.

After a moment, the closed mouth opened, revealing a ring of sharp but mostly missing teeth. In the blink of an eye, a bright white waterfall spurted out from the huge mouth, spraying on the ground like a waterfall.

superior.

The crackling sound of impact continued, like a dull song.

Not long after, the bright white waterfall disappeared, the huge mouth closed, and the huge head slowly retracted back.

The few people hiding in the corner looked at each other and looked forward.

As far as the eye can see, a large piece of white bones is displayed on the ground, and it is impossible to tell what the ground originally looked like. Most of the white bones are broken, some are broken from the middle, some are broken into seven or eight pieces, and some can no longer be seen.

The specific shape.

Most of the white bones in this area are bat bones, and some snake bones and monkey-faced eagle bones can be seen sporadically under the layers of white bones.

Obviously, bats became the staple food of this monster in relatively recent times.

The monster made no other movement. It seemed that it didn't know they had arrived here, or it didn't care about them at all. Taking advantage of this time, they took a closer look at the monster.

Under the head, which was the size of several houses, two claws like duck webs rested there.

Looking up, he only saw a dark mass behind the head. Jiang Xian looked carefully and saw a mass like a wall. Looking up, he could see a yarrow growing in this area.

Within the "wall".

The yarrow in the center was somewhat collapsed, as if it had been hit by something before.

"Why do I look at it? This seems to be..." Ling Xiaozi touched his chin and said with some surprise:

"turtle!?"

Jiang Xian and Lin Ruoxue looked at each other and nodded silently, with understanding in their eyes: "If it is really a turtle, then everything makes sense... Although every area we walked before can be calculated according to the deduction and the five elements.

It makes sense, but don’t you think that the closer you are to here, the higher the frequency of Xuanwu Qisu in the north?”

"A qualified agency should not use the same layout frequently."

Ling Xiaozi waved his whisk slightly and looked at the giant tortoise that seemed to be sleeping: "That's true, but if the owner here worships the two statues of turtle and snake, they will worship and revere these two statues.

When the gods make such arrangements and choices, it makes sense."

"Xuanwu is originally a turtle and a snake."

I see……

Fang Yunye also understood: "If you think about it this way, all the mechanisms we enter are actually traceable, and they are not even that difficult?"

"That's true, but the premise is that you must know the belief of the owner here and at the same time be able to face those monsters." Jiang Xian's brows jumped: "Especially when there is such an invincible existence at the very end!

"

This sentence made everyone fall silent for a moment.

Yes, this black turtle is simply more outrageous than any trap.

"Mao Gui Lao Xia... Hehe, it turns out he is such a Lao Xia..." Jiang Xian couldn't help but smile and shake his head: "The words Mao Ziyuan left back then were not just a pun, they simply made everything clear.

.”

Lin Ruoxue also nodded. Mao Ziyuan can be said to be the most powerful person they have ever fought against in the air.

She turned to look at Jiang Xian: "What are you going to do next? Are you still going there?"

Um?

Ling Xiaozi glanced at Jiang Xian and Lin Ruoxue strangely: "Go over there? What are you talking about?"

Jiang Xian nodded, then looked at a few people and pointed in one direction: "It's too dark here and the light is very weak. Where do you look carefully? Is there a plaque flashing there?"

Ling Xiaozi immediately stared at it. Because of the presence of the turtle, they did not dare to turn on the flashlight for fear of alarming each other.

In this pitch-black environment, the distance that his eyes could see was extremely limited. After exerting all his strength, he vaguely saw a plaque above the entrance of the cave.

"you mean……"

"That should be the exit, and it is also the last secret of this underground palace." Jiang Xian said these words calmly, his eyes moving back and forth twice: "If you want to go out, want to find out the secrets here, you have to do it."

You have to walk from there.”

"hiss……"

Ling Xiaozi gasped and his eyelids twitched a few times: "Jiang, are you telling the truth? You really can only go from there?"

"The entrance to the cave is right next to the old turtle! If we walk over, we're afraid we'll be swallowed in one bite, right?"

"Judging from the marks on the map and the traces I observed, we can only walk there." Jiang Xian spoke slowly and looked at a few people: "But don't worry too much, you guys

I didn’t realize that the vitality of this turtle is very low.”

Very low very low?

Ling Xiaozi's eyes moved, and his mind quickly recalled all the scenes just now.

"Most of its teeth have been lost!"

"When it was eating just now, all those bats entered on its own initiative..." Fang Yunye thought.

"Yes, but the most important thing is..." Jiang Xian looked at a few people and said slowly: "From the moment we saw it, its body didn't even move. Even after eating, it shrank its head back.

A moment of rest.”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes lit up.

Turtles are more energetic than most people imagine. Except for the fact that their limbs are extremely unsuitable for running, most turtles can run very quickly on land.

And the turtle in front of me can tell from the toes that it is obviously not a turtle.

An old voice, most of the teeth missing, a body that doesn’t move even after eating...

All these situations indicate that this turtle is approaching the end of its life.

Jiang Xian even suspected that apart from opening its mouth to eat, it was difficult for it to make other movements. If they arrived a little later, the turtle would have died completely and rotted underground, leaving behind its huge body.

.

"And don't forget, Mao Ziyuan has been here before. He will also walk there."

Jiang Xian looked at the people: "Hundreds of years ago, this turtle would never have been as old as it is now."

"Perhaps, he had no intention of attacking people in the first place."

After saying these words, everyone felt at ease. After adjusting their mentality slightly, they nodded to Jiang Xian.

Knowing that everyone was ready, Jiang Xian immediately stepped forward, leaning against the wall, holding the crystal bottle containing the inner elixir in his hand, and walked carefully forward.

In the silent and dark road, in the rock caves on both sides, the scarlet eyes of the upside-down bats were staring ahead. After sensing the arrival of outsiders, they almost fluttered their wings and started to bite.

prey.

But an aura that made them innately afraid wafted out, and those bats that were still impulsive instantly fell back and dived deeper into the cave.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Xian felt a little at ease. Without the intrusion of bats, the possibility of their past was greatly improved.

One step, two steps, three steps...

A few people stepped cautiously, landed carefully on the ground, and moved away the bones that might produce sound. Every time they moved, only an extremely small sound was produced. In this way, step by step, they got closer and closer to the entrance of the cave where the plaque was hung.

He was getting closer and closer to the three-story turtle.

Lifting his feet from the ground and just about to fall, Jiang Xian's heart suddenly trembled and his heart suddenly contracted. His expression changed and he immediately made a gesture. The people behind him instantly seemed to be wrapped in amber.

The movements were frozen in the moment.

The next moment, a breeze blew from the front, bringing a fishy smell onto everyone's faces.

The unpleasant smell was extremely stench, like the smell after the dental calculus has been cleaned, and the body couldn't help but send out a stress response.

Fortunately, everyone was not an ordinary person, so they held their breath and endured this airflow.

"Hmph..."

Two muffled sounds came from the front. The turtle's head shook slightly and moved to the side. The closed eyes never opened.

Jiang Xian breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward again, making gestures to several people. They became more careful with every step they took, trying not to attract the giant turtle's attention and reach the cave entrance safely.

Fifty meters, thirty meters, twenty meters...

The distance was getting closer and closer, and everyone's worries at that moment gradually relaxed. When they were only the last five meters away from the entrance of the cave, the corners of Jiang Xian's mouth rose slightly.

However, a feeling of being spied on suddenly arose from the bottom of his heart. His whole body tensed up, his eyes immediately looked upward, and his heart suddenly sank downwards.

Ten meters away, the turtle the size of several houses opened its eyes.

Eyes full of turbidity and blood stared directly at a few people. An invisible fear immediately rose from all over the body. Their bodies trembled uncontrollably. At this moment, even the instinct of running was lost in fear.

And forgot about it.

Will die!

Will definitely die!

Everyone has this clear understanding in their hearts. The giant turtle is indeed aging and it is indeed difficult to move. But as long as it is alive, it still has a little bit of vitality. It is difficult for ordinary life forms to escape in front of it, let alone

Talk about defeating it.

Once you get close to it, once it targets you, you will not be able to control your life or death.

They now know why that deep roar makes all the bats in the cave fall into its mouth.

The life around them has been infected by the breath of the giant turtle from generation to generation, and they are completely unable to resist. It is fed into their mouths and has even become an instinct engraved in their genes.
