Chapter 385 'The Game of the Ancestral Gods' The Past of the Holy Mountain
The deep mountains and cliffs retreated rapidly in all directions, and the light and shadow of the lighting props swayed slightly, as if they were trying to freeze every sudden moment of advance.
The map image left by his father spread out in Jiang Qian's mind. While comparing the maps, he was also thinking about the confusing relationship between his father Jiang Xuesong and the sacred mountain.
Will his father be the legendary "Dragon God"?
The Ancestral God told Shui Longyin that the Dragon God is also known as "Yun Zhongshuo". Is he related to the "Brother Yun" in Sha Jin's causal mirror? Is it just a coincidence?
If it is a coincidence, what about the geological map that is highly consistent with the sacred mountain realm?
Looking back at the memories before my father's death twelve years ago, I found that my father, a geologist, often stayed away from his family and went to remote mountains and forests to inspect untouched lands. Sometimes he would not even be seen for months at a time.
In the causal mirror, Yuan Xi's description of Brother Yun's accidental distress, rescue, amnesia, and the series of actions he took to leave after recovering his memory seemed to match his father Jiang Xuesong's travel habits.
That "Brother Yun" repeatedly went into the mountains to explore while his memory was recovering was enough to support the completion of the geological map. Is there such a coincidence in the world?
Of course, there are still doubts here.
For example, except for the map near Linyuan Village, when were the causal mirror distributions of other saints and saints drawn?
Since the Holy Mountain is an extraterrestrial realm similar to an evolutionary copy, how could my father know everything here so clearly? It’s like having his eyes opened!
How deep is the relationship between father and the Kamiyama Organization?
"Front!"
Jiang Qian's thoughts were pulled back by Sha Jin's reminder, and at the same time, the field of vision in front of him quickly broadened!
As the flying speed of the snake dropped sharply, the four people finally saw the scene in front of them clearly:
They have arrived at a huge palace cave hidden deep in the mountains!
The palace cave covers an area of about one hundred acres, with a huge enclosed palace with a dome and high walls built in its center. Under the lighting of the props, it can be seen that its overall color is golden yellow, especially the "gold of glow" used in the official western armband.
resemblance.
From a bird's eye view, it can be seen that the domes and walls of this enclosed palace are carved with extremely exquisite murals, most of which are unique creatures and mysterious symbols of the West.
"Is this the legendary location of the Holy Banquet..." Elegy was immersed in the wonders at the bottom of the mountain, briefly forgetting the upcoming crisis.
The natural landscape and palace architecture here are truly extraordinary and cannot be created by ordinary skilled craftsmen, especially the ability to create such a magical place under the mountains.
If Jiang Qian had followed Jiang Qian's initial plan of searching for the map, when he arrived at the center of the map, not only would he not be able to reach the location of the holy banquet, but he would be further away! Unless he had the ability to dig out the entire mountain, he would have a chance to see the current grand scene.
"Come closer, I want to see clearly."
Jiang Qian gave instructions to the new mount.
The snake roared obediently, flapped its wings, slowed down and flew around the palace carefully.
Now everyone can see clearly that this wonderful circular building has two "entrances", located at the front and rear ends of the entire dome palace. It gives people the impression that entering from one door, they can follow the other door.
The illusion of leaving...
Of course, for this building whose head and tail are hard to tell, it’s hard to say which is the “front door” and which is the “back door.”
A choice must be made here.
"Someone has already arrived first." Sha Jin raised sand and stone debris under his palm, and countless small creatures emerged from the cracks in the rock, carefully confirming the surrounding traces.
"There is no other possibility, it's a strange boy." As a saint of strange boys, Elegy is very sure, "The broken footprints here are probably the traces left by the snake-turned-beast king."
"There are also An Yelangjun and Water Ghost." Sha Jin added.
"I just don't know if the weird boy now is still the one you know~" Ayiguli looked at Elegy and smiled meaningfully.
They have all seen the ancestor god's ability to steal and replace others before. Except for Jiang Qian, who has overloaded weird energy to fight poison with poison, the other princes really may not be able to withstand it.
"Perhaps the ancestor god has laid a dragnet waiting for us inside."
"Do you want to divide the troops into two groups? Use the characteristics of the mental spider web." Sha Jin tentatively mentioned.
This is a bold suggestion that can make up for the disadvantages caused by the information gap within the palace to the greatest extent, and even avoid the risk of the entire army being annihilated.
Jiang Qian shook his head: "The mental spider web is a guarantee tool for special situations. We don't need to disperse yet. The more complex the internal situation is, the more we need to concentrate on sticking to the fundamentals to avoid being broken one by one."
Hearing this, Elegy secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She knew very well that once they chose to split up, the side that could not follow Jiang Qian would become an information acquisition tool, a pawn and bait that could be abandoned at any time.
Jiang Qian did not make such a choice, which shows that he has fundamental confidence and determination.
"We enter from the opposite side."
"That's fine!"
"I'm fine~"
"Are we meeting each other halfway? That's okay with me."
The three quickly reached a consensus.
There is no doubt that following the opponent's tracks is futile, and it is easy to be ambushed and misled; pursuing them head-on from the opposite direction is a relatively smart choice.
Regardless of whether the trickster is "him" or not, since the rule of four cards in one is the key to leaving this place safely, then the opponent will definitely take the initiative to look for Jiang Qian, and he can still defeat him later.
So, as the four people fell to the ground, the three-card upgraded version of the Snake Beast King roared! The giant arch facing the four people slowly moved and opened.
It was dark inside.
"Let's go."
As the snake was put back into the cage, Jiang Qian gave an order, and the four of them stepped into the darkness inside the arch.
But darkness only exists for a moment.
When the arches closed, the environment where the four people were standing suddenly became bright!
In the magnificent interior, the pillar walls and even the floor under the feet are paved with gold and jade. Colorful gems can be seen everywhere, complementing each other. The endless corridor exudes the mellow aroma of wine and meat, which mercilessly arouses the greed of the four people.
"This place... finally feels like a banquet." Sha Jin swallowed subconsciously.
"Don't be ridiculous~ Little Golden Scorpion, shouldn't you be scared when you smell this smell in such a dark and decaying underground castle?"
As soon as Ayiguli finished speaking, rustling sounds came from all directions.
The sound moved from far to near, gathering from small to large. It was a high-frequency agitation, like the thin sound of a large number of insects crawling by, and like the friction sound of sticky objects dragging on the ground. It made people's scalp numb.
Jiang Qian, who had already turned on his spiritual vision, raised his lips: "The welcoming team has arrived, be careful not to be scattered."
…
The other side of the Dome Palace.
In the middle of the long and narrow corridor, there is a three-headed beast king, carrying three figures on his back, walking with heavy steps in the brilliance of gems.
Walking on the left is a man in black, carried by a giant dung beetle, the holy envoy of the Holy Mountain, An Yelangjun. The man and the beast behave in a very low-key manner. At first glance, they are all black, but there is a thick smell of blood lingering there.
Not going.
Walking on the right is a crawling prehistoric crocodile. Sitting cross-legged on his back is a curly-haired fashionable man wearing a military green jacket, black jeans, and toad glasses. Although one person and one animal are tightly wrapped,
, but inevitably a large amount of unknown flesh and blood splattered on his body, which was sticky and dragged all over the floor.
It can be seen that they have just experienced a bloody battle.
The one between the two of them is the dwarf boy whose mount is a snake.
His clothes are brightly decorated with jewels, his handsome androgynous face always has a bright smile, and his short body hides a crazy and dangerous soul.
The beast king who transformed into a snake under him is even more elusive: he has a human face and a jackal body, bird wings and snake movements, and from time to time he makes a cry like a baby, which makes people's teeth feel sore and their backs feel cold.
Compared with the fellow travelers on the left and right, this pair looked very clean and looked relaxed and carefree.
Along with this intermittent cry, the water at the feet of the snake-turned-beast king continued to wash away the body, washing away the unknown debris dripping from the dung beetle and the king crocodile in time.
"It seems that those things only exist on the periphery. If they go deep enough, they won't be able to catch up." The water ghost envoy, who is a trendy man, said while looking behind him.
"It's disgusting enough. It's like maggots growing out of the ground and you can't kill them all." An Yelangjun said.
"Forget those little bastards, two holy brothers~"
Wei Tong's voice is clear and melodious, like a little boy who has not yet gone through the voice-changing stage, so immature that it is irresistible:
"As long as we reach the finish line one step earlier than Qianlong Wuyu, the balance of victory will completely tilt in our favor! A person who travels a hundred miles is half a mile, hehe, I'm afraid that kid hasn't realized this yet."
A brief silence.
The three giant beasts did not stop moving forward. They were keen and cautious, clearing the way for the owners on their backs like the most loyal guards.
"But... do you really need to ignore it?" The water ghost was still paying attention to the murals on both sides of the corridor. "Why do I feel that the existence of these paintings does not look like simple decoration?"
Just as he said, the walls on both sides of where the three of them were walking were carved with exquisite murals based on gold, jade and jewelry. The painting style was very much like a serialized version of an adult comic.
The most important thing is that the content of this mural makes it difficult for the water ghost not to care about it.
"That's not decoration."
The weird boy chuckled without looking back: "That's the past of the sacred mountain."
"Oh? How do you know?" The water ghost became even more curious, staring at a set of "Resurrection from the Dead" murals in trance.
"Hahaha!" The trickster laughed heartily and turned around to reply, "The Holy Mother loves children, and children love listening to stories the most."
The water ghost held up the toad mirror, said "hmm" meaningfully, and then stared at a mural of four snakes calming ghosts.
"As expected of the Holy Mother's favorite prince!" Lord An Yelang couldn't help but agree, and then turned into a sigh, "If I hadn't truly seen Qianlong Wuyong's strength, I would probably have more confidence in you.
"
The weird boy just smiled and said nothing.
At this time, the water ghost's question came again: "What is that? Well, I know all the four beasts. What kind of ghost is that thing surrounded in the middle?"
The strange boy's eyes shifted and he looked at what the water ghost was pointing at: "It's the ancestral god."
"Ancestral God...?"
Under the toad mirror, the water ghost frowned: "Lord Ancestral God, the relationship with the four beasts seems... why do they seem to be on the same level as fire and water? Shouldn't it be?"
The weird boy sneered: "I don't know about that."
"Hey, look at that cage... does it look like this damn domed palace?"
The water ghost was completely attracted by the exquisitely carved paintings. After a while, he noticed that the weird boy had already turned his face and was too lazy to pay attention to him.
At the same time, An Yelangjun's complaint came to my ears: "It's strange, why is it getting colder and colder."
Only then did the water ghost realize that the temperature in the palace had dropped significantly, so he subconsciously wrapped himself in a leather jacket and couldn't help but sneeze.
The moment he lowered his head, he was surprised to find that the water on the ground had turned into ice.
Looking up again, the murals on both sides miraculously disappeared...
The weird boy walking in front stopped.
So, Water Ghost and An Yelangjun also stopped.
It wasn't that they wanted to stop, but the ice formed on the ground bit the beast kings' feet!
The endless passage ahead also trembled faintly in the pressing cold air, and the frost color instantly filled the three people's vision...
…
The four Jiang Qians on the other side were being challenged by a large amount of dangerous ingredients.
Colorfully mutated giant reptiles, centipedes with no legs but super bouncing power, lobsters covered with fungi, hairy snakes...their huge number and variety of species directly forced Sha Jin, Elegy, and Ayiguli to be released on the spot.
Beast King, and launched his ultimate moves!
Putting aside the lethality of these things, when it comes to "disgusting", they are absolutely unstoppable and unrivaled!
Just chopping a stump of a limb can produce a thrilling effect like slapping a peeing cow ball, and the splash effect is unparalleled.
Everyone's protective peripherals have been subjected to unprecedented bullying.
Finally, it has to be an elegy!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As a soul singer and a woman with a mysophobia, she couldn't bear it and launched an indiscriminate mental attack, so that she could satisfy the "dangerous ingredients".
The juice is successfully retained in their own bodies.
The four people who broke out of the siege looked very embarrassed. In addition to suffering a mental blow, the unknown meat scraps all over their bodies also exuded a strong fishy smell, which strangely stimulated everyone's appetite.
Shajin immediately released quicksand to wash away the crowd and the Beast King, using the quicksand to wash away most of the broken limbs and debris in the chaos, finally ending the torment.
Jiang Qian took off his chivalrous cloak and took it in his hand. He could clearly feel that the performance of this prop was greatly suppressed.
The same goes for the invisibility armor, at least the invisibility function has failed for no reason.
A way to remove defense power? It's a bit underhanded... Jiang Qian sighed, wondering if Snake Guitong and others had also suffered the same treatment.
Ayiguli took off her noise-canceling earplugs angrily and gritted her teeth at Elegy: "Before you speak next time, can you say hello? Who are you sending away...?!"
Before she could finish her words, she was swept up by quicksand, covering half of her body and almost covering her chest.
"Ah, I'm sorry, sorry, sorry..." Sha Jin apologized repeatedly and prepared to remove the sand pile himself, so much so that he almost had his neck strangled by the spider silk.
"Come and take a look."
Jiang Qian's voice focused the attention of the three people again.
I saw Jiang Qian standing on one side of the corridor, staring at a beautifully carved mural made of gold and jade.
The content of this painting immediately aroused the alarm of the three people, so they followed Jiang Qian and carefully looked at the content of the murals on this side.
"This is……"
Ayiguli stared at the figure made of simple lines, stepped forward, and tried to understand the content and meaning of the entire mural:
The souls of the fallen people flew away, and they stood up and turned into winged evil ghosts. The evil ghosts gathered together to worship the ghost king...
She only read one page before she was stunned.
Although she had never seen these paintings before, she seemed to be able to understand each one.
At this time, Jiang Qian's voice came from her ears, calm and calm:
"People who are dying are summoned, gain strength, and gather in the sacred mountain...well, barely enough."
As he said that, he turned back to look at the three people:
"It's a matter of life and death, so I won't be polite. If there are any discrepancies, please remind me at any time."
Although Elegy and Sha Jin didn't say much, their expressions changed slightly!
The three of them suppressed their inner voices. As Jiang Qian's interpretation and steps moved forward, their eyes followed the next group of murals...
