Beast Tamer: Super Lucky Starting Contract
Chapter 54: Immortal Beast Corpse
Mo Xu frowned: "What does "Death Gate" mean?"
Jiang Pan said: "Among the eight gates, the 'Death Gate' is the most dangerous. It will cause serious disasters to people's lives, and those who violate it will lose money every year. When we came, it was the 'Life Gate' of the Gen Gua, with a gurgling stream and flourishing extraordinary spiritual creatures. The corresponding 'Death Gate' may be a blank space with nothing."
After listening to this, everyone looked again and saw that Kun Gua corresponds to the earth, a dead gate of white land. Isn't this exactly the same as the wasteland in the distance?
It seems that Jiang Pan’s deduction is most likely correct, and the next destination is the so-called "Death Gate"!
The fat man asked tremblingly: "Death Gate? Will it be dangerous?"
"According to common sense, yes."
Jiang Pan answered the fat man's question, but then he asked another question: "But think about it, since these inexplicable landscapes are in line with the Eight Trigrams, they must be artificially arranged, so what is this place?"
"What could it be?" The fat man's eyes were clear and stupid.
In fact, what Jiang Pan said was also the issue that Mo Xu was concerned about. This place was so grand and arranged in such a large area, it must not be a simple secret place.
Previously, he and Jiang Pan had talked about this secret realm. Jiang Pan thought that this was a first-class secret realm, just a normal extraordinary area, but now it seems not to be.
"This place is either a 'relic' or a 'grave'!"
"That's right," Jiang Pan continued, "After Brother Mo reminded me, everything connected, including the purple air in the sky. My grandfather once wrote in his notes, 'Purple air covers the sky mountain, which must be the emperor's tomb.' This is very likely the tomb of a great man!"
When Jiang Pan mentioned the three words "Emperor's Tomb", Mo Xu was surprised at first, and then felt a little weird, but after thinking about it carefully, he didn't know what was wrong.
The fat man slapped his thigh and exclaimed: "Pan'er means there is a treasure?"
"Go, stop making a fuss." Mo Xu couldn't stand the fat man's jumping thoughts, and then said to Jiang Pan: "Go on."
"The scene of the "Death Gate" corresponds to this tomb. If the entire secret realm is a big tomb, then the "Death Gate" will correspond to the core of this secret realm. Of course, there will also be the treasure that Brother Pang mentioned."
"That makes sense! Because graves are originally 'dead'." Mo Xu nodded, agreeing with Jiang Pan's analysis. So far, all the deductions have been well-founded and matched.
It seems that no matter what, I have to go to this so-called "death gate".
The three of them all looked at Mo Xu, who made the decision, "There's no time to lose. We'll know once we get there. If there's any danger, it won't be too late to retreat."
After a brief exchange, and after discussing the mystery of the next destination, they were able to continue on their journey.
After coming out of the swamp, there is wasteland in front and behind. If it weren't for the mountains to guide us, we would probably get lost.
After walking for a long time, according to Jiang Pan's watch, six hours had passed. According to their previous experience, they should have reached the next direction by now, but the scenery ahead remained the same, which inevitably made people feel worried.
The fat man couldn't help but look back. Far in the distance behind him was a green area. That was the swamp they came from. Only in this way could he know that they had indeed walked a long way.
There was no other way, the three people and three beasts could only move on.
After walking for a while, Jiang Pan suddenly stopped and said, "Brother Mo, Brother Fatty, look ahead, is there a gully?"
"Where is it?" The fat man immediately stretched his head to look. He had good eyesight and could see more clearly than Jiang Pan: "Hey, it really is there."
"It's a bit like... a dried-up river?" The fat man asked with surprise and uncertainty.
"It's possible!" After the fat man said this, Mo Xu looked more and more like it.
This is most likely the truth. The "creek" on the "Death Gate" side is dry, which corresponds to death. It also explains why they have been walking for so long and still have no scenery.
"go!"
Several people were anxious and quickened their pace towards that direction.
Nothing unusual happened near the so-called "Death Gate" as imagined. Apart from the footsteps of the uninvited guests, the wasteland was still silent.
Like other places, they didn't encounter any living creatures along the way. But that was okay, because if they encountered any living creatures near the "Death Gate", Mo Xu felt that it would be more terrifying.
When they got closer, they were more certain that this should be the river channel that was supposed to be here. There was no grass around it, only deep ravines.
As per convention, several people sent out monsters to take the lead.
Xiu Xiu didn't need any instructions and directly equipped himself with two skills. He walked to the edge of the river with the Mighty Goose and the Electric Group.
When the monsters approached the river, they found that the land at the bottom of the ravine was a conspicuous red. From the bottom to the top, the red color became lighter and lighter, until it almost merged with the surrounding wasteland at the upper edge.
In this dried-up riverbed, the extraordinary energy is also very strong, not inferior to the small stream at the beginning, but it makes several monsters feel uncomfortable.
Apart from this, there were no other discoveries and no dangers were found.
When the monsters set off, Mo Xu and his companions were still searching for traces of the secret realm exit around the river. There was no fog or grass here, so it was very convenient to observe. It only took them a few minutes to confirm that there was no secret realm exit above the river. If there was, it could only be below the river.
Not long after, the monsters came back to report the situation. After listening, the three carefully observed the surrounding soil. It was indeed just a little bit of light red, like a gradient. So it was not visible from a distance, and it could only be noticed here.
As for the extraordinary energy, Mo Xu analyzed that since this is the "Gate of Death", the extraordinary energy should be tainted with some attributes of death, which made the monsters uncomfortable. This just shows that Jiang Pan's deduction is extremely correct.
Since there was no danger, Mo Xu took Xiu Xiu and prepared to go over to see what the mystery of this "death door" was.
The river is not wide, about five or six meters. Standing on the edge of the dry river and looking down, the deepest part is about eight or nine meters, but because the river is a slope to the bottom and the soil is not hard, it is not difficult to get to the bottom.
Mo Xu stared at the red bottom of the river, thought of the "Death Gate", and made a horrifying guess: "Do you think this looks like... blood?"
At first glance, it looks like the color of coagulated blood, but upon closer thought, it doesn't make sense. Where did this creature come from? And if there is one, we don't know how long it has been dead. Even if it is brown blood spots, they will probably disappear over time.
The fat man was shocked after hearing this: "Brother Mo, don't scare me. Now that you mention it, this place is really a bit dead. There won't be any monsters or ghosts."
"Probably not, that's all I'm saying."
"Blood?" Jiang Pan seemed to be thinking: "Should we go down and dig it up and see."
Mo Xu did not rush to make a decision, but asked: "Jiang Pan, if this place is really a "grave", then what will be under the "death gate"? "
Jiang Pan pointed to the bottom of the river and said, "If I'm guessing correctly, the entrance to the tomb is right below, or you could call it the underground palace."
The fat man immediately asked: "Underground Palace, the treasure is down here!"
Jiang Pan answered without hesitation: "Of course there will be good things in the big tomb, but of course there will be dangers as well."
It goes without saying that the big tomb has both good fortune and opportunity. Mo Xu naturally knows this, but at this time he was not dazzled by any treasures, but was thinking about a question: "Will there be an exit from the underground palace?"
This place is a secret place, and its border with the real world should be at the intersection of the two. The last exit was found at Zibing, which basically verified this conjecture.
In addition, Jiang Pan had said before that the secret realm "fell" into the real world, and its intersection with the real world should be at a low place rather than a high place.
The underground palace is deeper, so it should be closer to the real world, and the extraordinary energy there should be more concentrated than above. According to this deduction, the probability of an entrance and exit under the underground palace should be greater.
After Mo Xu told Jiang Pan about his analysis, Jiang Pan twirled his chin and thought for a while before saying, "Brother Mo's idea is very reasonable, but I only know a little about the secret realm. I can only say that judging from the existing information, there may indeed be an exit under this "death door."
The question was ultimately left to Mo Xu to decide. The safest option was to continue to look for an exit in the next direction, but there were eight directions, and it would take two days and two nights to walk a full circle. I wonder how often that damn exit would appear.
If you dig, there may be luck, there may be danger, or there may be no danger but no way out, and it will all be in vain in the end.
It's a gamble on both sides.
Since it all depends on luck, why not just watch Xiu Xiu?
Mo Xu picked up two stones, one large and one small, from the ground, hid them in the palms of his hands, and said to Xiu Xiu, "Come on, choose one."
Xiu Xiu was suddenly called and asked in confusion: "What is this for?"
"It's just a little game, choose."
Xiu Xiu, who didn't know that he was shouldering the fate of a group of people, scratched the leaves above his head and said, "Then I choose... the left side."
Mo Xu opened the palm of his left hand, which contained a large stone, indicating that the chosen result was digging.
Seeing the result, he began to feel a little bit of anticipation, because deep down he also wanted to explore the underground palace.
Now that he had the answer, Mo Xu no longer hesitated. When it came to relying on luck, he could only believe in Xiu Xiu's "super luck", and the rest was to do his best and leave the rest to fate.
He turned around and said to Jiang Pan and Fatty, "Let's dig!"
-
Mo Xu stretched out one foot from the shore, maintained his balance, walked quickly along the slope for a few meters, and slid into the river in an instant.
"So handsome, Brother Mo!" said the fat man, and then he followed suit, wanting to be like Mo Xu. Unfortunately, he was too fat and had poor balance, so he was about to rush down like a meat bomb.
Mo Xu and Xiu Xiu were quick to move and quickly supported the fat man with both hands, preventing him from falling flat on his face.
Seeing that his master was almost killed, Diantuan jumped up and down anxiously.
"Take it easy." Mo Xu helped the fat man to stand steadily.
"Hehe, mistake, mistake." The fat man was not ashamed. He patted his pants after coming down and said, "This is the only way I can show off your good skills, Brother Mo."
Jiang Pan became much steadier, and he went down step by step with Dali E. With the help of two companions, they reached the bottom of the river steadily.
After everything was in place, Mo Xu gently crushed the soil under his feet. It was neither soft nor hard, and was similar to the soil on the wasteland. It shouldn't be a problem to dig it up, but the red color here was very glaring.
"start."
Following Mo Xu's order, the three monsters began to move.
Under the supervision of several people, the monsters used their skills and splashed mud at the bottom of the river. Soon a large pit was dug out. They made a discovery within a few meters of digging down the pit.
"We dug up something very hard." Dali E was the first to report to Jiang Pan.
A few people walked to the place where the powerful goose was digging, and found a piece of white hard stone, which was glowing with the glow of extraordinary factors and was extremely holy.
"There really is a treasure!" The fat man squatted down and stroked the stone with a lustful look, as if he was touching the skin of a young girl.
Mo Xu asked Jiang Pan to call the monsters over, and gathered three monsters to dig along the white stone.
As the monsters worked non-stop for half an hour and the pit next to the stone grew deeper and deeper, the glowing white stone gradually took shape.
The "white stone" became larger and larger as it was dug, extending all the way to the river channel under the cliff. First, a long strip appeared, and then several long sticks extended out from the surrounding area. The diameter of each stick was nearly one meter, and they twisted and turned and went straight to the bottom.
Even if people were not very good at seeing, they could tell that this was not a piece of stone, but the skeleton of a living creature!
The one at the top is probably the spine, and the ones that go straight into the ground are its ribs and wing bones.
When the fat man thought about how he had just been stroking the corpse and grinning, and even kissed this "treasure", he immediately cursed as if he had eaten a fly: "Why am I so unlucky!"
In fact, we can’t blame the fat man entirely, because this bone is really extraordinary. One can clearly feel the brilliance of the extraordinary factor on it. It really looks like a treasure.
Mo Xu looked at the huge corpse and asked, "When did this person die?"
Jiang Pan picked up a handful of soil and said, "Judging from the burial layer, the time is definitely not short. Even if we look at the speed of time passing in the secret realm, the age of these bones is probably beyond imagination!"
This is because this secret place is very special, the wind and sand, climate, etc. are very stable, not as violent as in the normal world. Even so, according to his estimation of "touching the soil", this layer of soil is conservatively estimated to be over a hundred years old. In the secret world, it is possible to say thousands of years. It is hard to say how old it is!
Mo Xu's eyes flickered. A thousand-year-old corpse could still retain extraordinary genes. What level of existence must this be? It would not be an exaggeration to say that he had become an immortal or even a god!
Generally speaking, after a monster dies, its extraordinary factors will dissipate within a period of time, and even a powerful monster like a king will turn into dry bones.
But there is one exception, and that is the fairy beast!
This is the corpse of a fairy beast!
