Horrible-looking corpses were scattered all over the interior of the fortress, piled up in random places, and the air of death spread, which was frightening.
Li Qingyun has witnessed many big scenes over the years. When he saw the scene in front of him, his heart tightened and he was not shocked.
On the contrary, Yu Xiaoye in front of him seemed to have not seen much life and death, and his face was slightly pale at this time.
"Is this an illusion?"
Li Qingyun stood slightly forward and stood next to Yu Xiaoye. Standing side by side could give her a little sense of security.
Yu Xiaoye solemnly took out a purple stone from his arms and pressed the hand to move it, but the stone showed no response.
She shook her head: "It's not an illusion. If it were an illusion, the illusion stone would emit purple light."
"The death energy in the illusion...cannot be so real."
Li Qingyun was surprised. It seemed that the purple stone was a treasure for testing illusions. He had never heard of it before.
Tick-tock——
The corpse of a tall human was lying on a huge stone table. Blood spread from his body, covering the entire table, and then dripped to the ground.
The extremely rich blood was still exuding heat, making people believe that the killing and death happened not long ago.
Li Qingyun boldly stepped forward and walked to the stone table.
The blood on the stone table was flowing downward, like a stream on the ground, crawling towards Li Qingyun's feet...
Sudden,
The dead human corpse on the stone table twitched violently,
Li Qingyun quickly retreated,
The blood flowing on the ground stopped suddenly.
…
And at this moment,
outside the fortress,
Dozens of monks in uniforms stand here.
They were the members of the Nandou family who had returned, but their expressions were quite solemn at this time.
The leader is no longer Nandou Chong before, but has become a short young man. Although this young man is short in stature, he exudes a strong power and has a stern look in his eyes. The eyes around him are full of awe.
He is Nan Douchong's cousin, the direct descendant of the Nandou family, Nandou Li. At this time, his cultivation has reached the ninth level of the Dao Realm, which is the level of being crowned king.
Nandou Li turned around and looked at everyone, and said calmly: "Junior brothers, you don't have to worry about the time when the token was taken away. If you hadn't lost the token and made you wait to return, how would you have known about the opening of this holy-level fortress."
"Junior brothers, just enter with me. After the incident in the fortress, I will naturally go with you to find the people in the lower world and help you seek justice."
"Yes!" everyone responded.
"Okay." Nandou said sternly: "Now I will activate the secret order left by the elders of the clan. There are taboos that should be paid attention to when entering the fortress. Junior brothers, please note it down carefully."
As he spoke, a ray of yellow light shook out from his sleeve, turning into a blurry virtual image of an old man.
The old man was equally illusory, as if he had come from outside. It took all his mental energy to barely hear his words:
"This fortress is called Xianhua Fortress No. 17. It is one of the saint-level fortresses in the Xianhua Star Territory. However, due to some reasons, it entered this ancient battlefield. Your mission is to find relevant information in this fortress.
Classics."
"Any classics will receive massive rewards from the family."
"According to this saint's calculation, this fortress should have been struck by a forbidden being, and all living creatures within the fortress were wiped out."
"But because the forbidden being's attack was too strong, time was disrupted. The entire interior of the fortress was sealed by the powerful power of time, making it impossible to enter."
"I know today, many epochs have passed since that war, and the power of time has just dissipated. Only then can you enter through the mysterious area of this ancient battlefield."
"There is only one point to enter. Remember not to touch the dead bodies in the fortress. The taboo existence has long been a taboo between heaven and earth, so the people they killed are also regarded as unknown."
"Below the holy level, if you are contaminated with unknown things, you will definitely die. Whether it is your body, weapons, or spiritual power, you must not touch the ominous power."
"The only thing that can touch the ominous power is spiritual power."
After saying this, the old man's figure suddenly shrank and disappeared into the air.
Everyone's eyes were full of shock. They were originally warned by the strong men in the family that the mountain in the Xuanjie area contained dangers and should not be approached. However, they did not expect that such a shocking secret was hidden in it.
Nandou Li was equally shocked, but he put away the shock in his eyes and looked at everyone solemnly: "Junior brothers, it is no longer necessary to delay, we must go in."
"This elder is the first to know that the power here has dissipated, but it will soon be exposed by other forces."
"In such a treasured land, the first force to enter, although it will be the most dangerous, will gain the greatest share of opportunities!"
"Junior brothers, follow me in!"
With that said, Nandou Li waved his hand and led the people behind him into the fortress in front of him.
…
Li Qingyun looked warily at the table in front of him, the dead human corpses, and the traces of blood less than an inch away from his toes.
The space inside the fortress is huge. There is a huge table in the center. The table is extremely long and can accommodate many people on both sides. Obviously, this is an area where only important members of the meeting can sit.
Around the huge table, there are many small tables arranged in several rows, like where the entourage of key personnel sits, where they will listen.
At this time, whether it was the huge conference table or the small table, there were fresh corpses.
The table closest to me is less than three feet away.
"It seems... an attack that everyone could not resist came suddenly, and the people here were wiped out before they had time to resist."
Li Qingyun murmured: "But for some reason, I always feel that there is something strange here. Things are definitely not as simple as we thought."
Yu Xiaoye took a deep breath and nodded: "It's really strange. Before we entered the fortress, we walked on the ground around the fortress for a while, but we didn't feel any powerful force coming here."
"All the strong men here died tragically in an instant, which means that the power of the attack must be extremely powerful, and it is impossible not to be discovered by us..."
"Could it be that..."
The two looked at each other, their eyes bursting with dazzling light.
"Could it be said that... this attack did not happen just now, but happened at another time?"
Li Qingyun frowned and said, "Is this possible?"
"Is there really someone strong enough to disrupt time and space?"
Yu Xiaoye said: "I have seen such records in the sect's Sutra Pavilion. There are indeed such strong people who can achieve such a level..."
"It's just that the power of those powerful men has surpassed that of the Holy Lord..."
