The golden light that suddenly appeared outside the gloomy forest instantly filled the entire world.
His body gradually faded and became weak. Yinling Guitou, who wanted to sneak into the ground to pursue Zhu Jiu, seemed to have sensed some kind of crisis, so he gave up his plan to pursue Zhu Jiu underground, and turned around and ran deep into the woods.
However, it was chased by this golden light in the next instant. The body composed of thousands of Yin spirits was pierced by thousands of rays of light in an instant, and no trace of it remained.
Including the dozens of adventurers who came out of the woods first and everything around them, they completely disappeared when touched by the golden light...
After Zhu Jiu dived underground, he felt a strong uneasiness rising in his heart, as if a disaster was imminent.
He activated the Earth Escape Talisman and continued to go deeper underground. Not only did the uneasiness not subside, but it became more and more intense.
Zhu Jiu's expression changed drastically and he said to Ling Xue:
"What is the method you mentioned to enter the golden altar? Use it quickly and see if you can save your life."
When Ling Xue hesitated for a moment, Zhu Jiu said urgently:
"If you have any more scruples at this moment, we will be in catastrophe in an instant."
At this time, Ling Xue seemed to sense a wisp of murderous intent coming over her. Without any further hesitation, her magic power began to flow through her body. She opened her mouth slightly, and a golden vial was spit out from her body, spinning in the air.
The aura of this small bottle was restrained and majestic. As soon as it appeared, the pressure and murderous intention lingering in Zhu Jiu's heart instantly disappeared and disappeared.
Zhu Jiu exhaled a long breath and felt cold sweat covering his back.
Seeing that Ling Xue was about to take the golden vial back into her mouth, Zhu Jiu chuckled and said:
"Don't worry, I have no intention of snatching this vial. If this vial is spiritual, I won't be able to use it even if I grab it. We are about to go up there, and the situation above is unknown, so you'd better hang this vial above your head.
It’s better to keep us safe.”
Ling Xue's eyes flashed, she nodded slightly, and followed the instructions to drive the vial to float above her head.
Zhu Jiu remotely sensed the changes on the surface above, and after a moment he said as if to himself:
"What kind of restriction is this? It's like the power of heaven. In this short period of time, all life on the surface of the earth has been wiped out."
After waiting for a while, Zhu Jiu seemed to sense that the power of the restriction above had dissipated, and then he controlled the talisman to separate the soil above his head and return to the surface.
The place they came out of the underground was still the same place they had dived into before. When they came out, their faces were full of surprise and they almost screamed.
When Zhu Jiu manipulated the talisman and entered the ground, although the area was already at the edge of the dark forest, it was still densely populated with trees. Now that they came out again, the place had become a flat land with empty fields. When they turned around and looked back, the dark forest was completely covered with trees.
After moving back more than a thousand meters, the power of the restriction was so powerful that it killed everything within a thousand meters in an instant.
Then the two of them turned their heads and looked back ahead, and the core area of the ghost city that had always been shrouded in fog on the Consciousness Sea Spirit Map finally appeared in front of Zhu Jiu's eyes.
What appeared in front of him was a broad and majestic building that looked like a miracle. Even Zhu Jiu, who had seen the vastness and majesty of Yuanting in the abyss, felt a sense of wonder from the bottom of his heart.
It was an extremely brilliant golden tower, huge and boundless, as high as the clouds. What was exposed to the two of them was only a small part of this glorious and simple tower. Looking up, the upper part was covered in misty clouds.
.
This tower is different from the other dilapidated buildings in the ghost town. It remains new over time, as if it was built yesterday.
More than a hundred meters away from where Zhu Jiuli stood, there was a jade-white staircase extending straight upward. Tens of thousands of steps stretched endlessly, seemingly reaching the top of the platform.
There are two statues of gods standing on the left and right of the starting point of the stairs, more than a hundred meters high, with majestic and solemn expressions.
The part of the shrine exposed to Zhu Jiu's eyes was square and square. Except for the steps, which were white, the rest of the place was golden. The top and bottom were integrated without any gaps. There was a strange majesty and a heavy sense of vicissitudes accumulated over time.
Among them, people are in awe, as if there is a heavy mountain pressing on their hearts, and even breathing is difficult.
The surroundings were as quiet as death, and there was no life left. At this moment, the golden light that cut off everything slowly retracted into the eyes of one of the statues standing on both sides of the stairs.
Zhu Jiu turned his eyes to Ling Xue, who was looking surprised next to him, and heard her whispering the words "golden altar" softly, and then looked at the golden vial suspended above Ling Xue's head.
The vial was trembling slightly at this time, as if it sensed some kind of breath around it, and started to fluctuate strangely.
What was in the bottle? Zhu Jiu was a little curious.
In the silence of the surrounding area, the two people stepped towards the miraculous altar. There was nothing unusual along the way. The two people safely arrived at the starting point of the stairs, at the foot of the two statues of gods.
Observed from a close distance, the two statues are both standing in a standing posture, with natural and lifelike images. The whole body is made of unknown materials and has a faint dark golden color.
Each step of the white jade-like stairs at the foot of the statue is wide and huge, far exceeding the architectural specifications built by humans. It seems that the legend that the golden clan is a giant is indeed true. These stairs are obviously not prepared for humans.
At the beginning, the leader of the Tianxu Kingdom said that the core of this ghost city was due to the collapse of an originally existing mountain peak, which revealed the core of the ghost city hidden inside.
At this moment, I thought that this mountain must be extremely tall to accommodate such a majestic golden altar.
Ling Xue suddenly let out a light sigh and said:
"There's someone on the stairs, and they've climbed so far!"
Zhu Jiu followed Ling Xue's gaze and looked up the stairs, and a thought flashed through his mind. The figure on top of the hundred steps was none other than Yin Zhenzi from Da Ri Tian City.
This guy had also discovered the two people at the bottom of the stairs. He turned back to face Zhu Jiu and Ling Xue. There was a strange white gaseous flame hanging above his head. He stood with his hands behind his back, looked down with contempt, and shouted from a distance:
"Let's see how far you can go on this ladder to become my opponent."
Zhu Jiuqing frowned, looked at the white jade stairs in front of him, and tried to jump to the first step. He instantly felt a pressure coming on him. If he didn't use his magic power to resist, his footing would be unstable. He looked up.
Yin Zhenzi, who was more than a hundred steps above, chuckled lightly and jumped back to Ling Xue, without continuing up.
Yin Zhenzi immediately laughed mockingly and shouted from the air:
"What? You don't even have the courage to keep going up?"
Zhu Jiu's eyes flashed, he raised his head and said in a deep voice:
"Yin Zhenzi, I just killed your junior brothers and sisters not long ago. If you come down now, I will send you to join them. Do you dare to come down and fight?"
Yin Zhenzi was furious when he heard this, and his chest heaved violently. It took him a while to suppress the anger in his heart, and he said with a stern look on his face:
"I will kill you, but not now." He looked back at the altar and continued:
"You may not know yet, but this golden altar is the place where the Golden Clan communicates with the heavens. It also contains many treasures collected during their heyday. The white flame above my head is what I got from climbing the hundred steps.
I haven't reached my limit yet, so why would I give up such a good opportunity just to kill you? You think too highly of yourself."
Zhu Jiu also had a smile on his face and said:
"So if you can climb to the top of the altar, wouldn't it be a great harvest?"
Yin Zhenzi seemed to have heard the most ridiculous thing in the world, and immediately laughed wildly. After a while, he replied:
"Do you think you are a person who has become an immortal? The level of the treasures displayed on the top of this altar is simply unimaginable. It is really wishful thinking to go up to the top of the altar to retrieve the treasures. Let me tell you, in fact, gold
The clan's God-pressing altar is located here, and it is widely spread among powerful people. However, this time the altar came out, no one came to seize the treasure. What do you think is the reason? Hey, the reason is these powerful people.
For countless years, I have secretly tried to come here countless times, but no one can climb to the top. If I try to do it by force, I will be wiped out by the law of destruction contained in the altar. Who are you? How dare you come out?
Such nonsense!"
Zhu Jiu shook his head slightly and said calmly: "What a frog in the well." While speaking, he looked at Ling Xue beside him.
Ling Xue was sitting on the floor at this time. The golden vial that had been floating above her head suddenly became brighter, and a trace of pure golden light slowly escaped from the vial.
The moment this golden light appeared, it rippled with the surrounding environment, and the eyes of one of the statues standing on both sides of the steps suddenly lit up!
Yin Zhenzi, who was standing far above, changed his expression greatly and shouted wildly:
