Chapter 205: The Stone Gate Changes
"I'm done for now. I haven't even gotten married yet! I won't be willing to die like this!" Su Junliu wailed loudly as he watched the purple lightning snakes pouring down from the sky.
In a flash, a light blue water curtain blocked the way. Feng Huan's Autumn Water Sword danced rapidly, drawing perfect arcs and bringing up the surrounding water elements. Purple lightning bombarded the water curtain, making crackling sounds and splashing sparks. A tingling sensation spread along Feng Huan's arm and spread throughout his body. Every inch of his skin seemed to be scorched, and the pain was unbearable.
Feng Huan had to grit his teeth and persevere. Fortunately, the lightning strike did not last long.
"Brother, your defensive martial arts move is really perfect. What is it? Can you teach it to me? I can exchange other martial arts or treasures with you." Su Junliu looked at Shui Tianyisese with envy, his saliva almost flowing out. "If I can learn this martial arts, my safety factor in traveling around the world will be greatly improved, and the old guys will not always restrict my freedom."
"I'm sorry, I'm afraid you can't learn this unless you awaken the power of the water element." Before he woke up from his dream, Feng Huan poured a basin of cold water on his face.
"Is that so? It's all in vain!"
"Let's get rid of this group of leopard rhinos first and then think about other things! You might not even survive today, so why think about such far-reaching things!" Ziyun couldn't help but teasing from the side.
"No, with this brother here, I am confident that everything will be fine and I can turn danger into safety!" Su Junliu immediately said to Feng Huan with a flattering look on his face, "By the way, I haven't asked for your name yet, brother?"
"I am Feng Huan. Now is not a good time to chat. Look, this leopard rhino seems to be planning some big move again. We have to be prepared."
Sure enough, just as Feng Huan finished speaking, the horns on the heads of all the unicorn rhinos on the opposite side emitted a burst of light again, but this time there was no phantom color. Suddenly, there was a loud noise, as if thunder pierced the ears, and the sound waves penetrated the ears directly into the brain.
"what!"
Su Junliu only heard a scream, and then he fell to the ground. At the critical moment, Feng Huan used his spiritual power to construct a phantom gauze to block the outside of Ziyun's spiritual embryo, blocking this wave of spiritual attacks in time. And he himself relied on the power of his divine body to withstand wave after wave of spiritual attacks.
After practicing for a period of time, the spiritual defense martial art of Huancai Gauze Clothes was finally successfully practiced, and it came in handy at this critical moment.
Looking at Su Junliu again, although he fell to the ground, his whole body was glowing with a layer of light green light, resisting the attack of the leopard rhino. Feng Huan originally wanted to attack, but seeing this situation, he did not force himself to attack, after all, it was a great burden for him.
After a round of lightning attacks, coupled with continuous spiritual attacks, the leopard rhinoceros on the opposite side was exhausted. Seeing this, the leopard rhinoceros leader decisively led the tribe to retreat to avoid being slaughtered by humans.
Looking at the leopard rhinos leaving in the flying dust, Feng Huan breathed a sigh of relief. He was also having a hard time in this situation. If it took a little longer, he might not be able to hold on.
He removed the colorful gauze and called the sleeping Ziyun softly. She was only hit by the first wave and was protected, so she only lost consciousness temporarily, and her spiritual embryo was not substantially damaged. Without the protection of the colorful gauze, she would have suffered irreversible damage. The injury to the spiritual consciousness is different from the physical body. There is no special treatment method, it is difficult to recover, and there is no effective elixir.
Ziyun slowly opened her eyes and saw Feng Huan looking at her with concern. Her heart was filled with gratitude and happiness. "Thank you, Big Ice Cube. I always hold you back. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid..." Feng Huan waved his hand, "It's my responsibility to protect you. Don't think too much."
Seeing that Ziyun was fine, Feng Huan came to Su Junliu and woke him up. At this time, the light green halo on his body gradually dissipated. "This group of leopard rhinos is really powerful. Today is a fluke." After waking up, he said with lingering fear.
"You should be an important figure in Tianmu Holy Valley, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have such a powerful life-saving item on you. Even if you don't die, you will be seriously injured."
"No, no! They are just some small gadgets, not worth mentioning." Su Junliu's words were evasive, and he seemed unwilling to reveal too much information related to his identity.
The leopard rhinoceros group had retreated, and the three of them left after a brief reorganization. However, not long after they walked, the sky suddenly became extremely dark, and a huge crack appeared on the land in front of them, extending longer and farther, as if it was going to split the entire sky and earth apart.
"What's going on? Did the battle just now alarm some ancient being?" Su Junliu tightly grasped his folding fan, Feng Huan and Ziyun were also on high alert. The three of them stared at the crack in front of them, some nervous, but more excited. After all, isn't it for such unpredictable opportunities and risks to come out for training and adventure?
At this moment, an ancient stone door slowly rose from the crack. The door was engraved with strange runes, exuding a mysterious and powerful aura.
Su Junliu's eyes widened, and he asked in surprise: "Is this the legendary Qiankun Gate? It is said that there are endless treasures and peerless skills hidden behind this gate." Feng Huan clenched his sword and said: "No matter what, it is better to be careful."
Ziyun approached curiously, and suddenly the stone door emitted a suction force, sucking Ziyun directly into the door. Feng Huan was startled, and flew up without thinking, and Su Junliu also hurriedly used his body skills to follow in.
After entering the stone gate, there was a dark passage where you could hardly see your hand in front of you. The air was thin inside and no sound could be heard. The whole space was dead silent.
The lack of light was certainly not a problem for them. The three of them walked along the passage, and after about a quarter of an hour, they finally saw a ray of light in front of them.
"It seems that the legend is false. It seems that there won't be any good things in this dilapidated place." The light was emitted by several night-shining pearls inlaid on the wall. This was a slightly empty hall. When the three of them arrived at the hall, Su Junliu couldn't help but sigh.
"Maybe that's not the Qiankun Sect at all, you're wrong." Ziyun added a knife at the right time.
"It is indeed possible!" Feng Huan also agreed.
"Did I really make a mistake?" Su Junliu also began to doubt himself.
The hall is extremely grand, with many large patterns carved on the four walls. However, there is nothing special about these patterns, they are all landscapes, except for the innermost one which depicts a portrait of a tall figure.
"Come and take a look, it seems a little different here?" Ziyun, who was looking at the portrait of the character at this time, made a discovery.
"What's wrong?" Su Junliu asked impatiently.
"Look, this portrait looks like a person, but the eye color is red, and he has ten fingers on both hands, and the same goes for his toes." Sometimes women are more delicate and can notice some details.
"This may be a place where they worship gods or ancestors. If there is any secret, it should be here. Let's look carefully and maybe we can find something."
"Yeah, why is the eyeball so red, like blood, it's really scary! And why are there so many toes!" Su Junliu said as he reached out to touch the toes of the portrait.
"Click... click..." When his hand touched the big toe of his right foot, a loud noise came from the hall.
"What happened?" Su Junliu was startled by the sudden change.
Suddenly, the portrait's right foot slowly lifted up, revealing a hole for walking.
"So there's a mechanism here. Do you want to go take a look?"
"Of course!"
Feng Huan took the lead and walked through the cave entrance, followed closely by Ziyun.
"This...what on earth is going on? It's so terrible, so horrible!" Su Junliu, the last one to come in, looked at the scene in front of him with astonishment on his face. He seemed to be frozen in place in an instant. His eyes were wide open, his mouth was slightly open, and a dry sound came from his throat.
The space here was wider than the hall outside, but the height was relatively lower. However, what was horrifying was that this wide area was completely covered with densely packed bones, and it was almost impossible to see the end at a glance.
All of these skeletons were neatly arranged in a meditation posture, which looked extremely strange. Some of the skeletons still had some clothing fragments on them, fluttering gently in the breeze; others had been completely weathered, leaving only pale bones exposed.
Feng Huan frowned, and slowly scanned the skeletons, secretly estimating in his heart. According to preliminary estimates, there are at least four to five thousand skeletons here. And surprisingly, the hand and toe bones of each skeleton are exactly the same as the person in the mysterious portrait, with a full ten hands and feet.
