Step through fairy dust

Seeing that the stone gate was blown open at night, Jimo was the first to go in.

Immediately, Jimo Yue took the dozen or so people to follow, and Nangong Zi and the boy in yellow followed cautiously.

Among all the people, only Meng Kunlun and Shen Canglang walked at the end leisurely.

Everyone walked forward a few steps, and when they were in fear, a person suddenly let out a scream, and then fell straight down.

Everyone was shocked, they had carefully avoided touching the trap, and they didn't touch anything just now, what happened?

Jimo Ye's eyes darkened, and he went forward to check on the fallen man.

"...he's dead." Jimo Ye stretched out his fingers to probe the man's breath and said.

"Fourth!" A man who seemed to be in the same group as the dead man yelled, he seemed to go up and shake the man on the ground awake, but was stopped by Jimo Ye.

"Before you go to the ground, you should be prepared that you won't come back," Jimo Ye said coldly, "Even if the person who died was your father, you have to keep going."

"He doesn't know how he died, it's better not to touch his body casually."

The man glared at Jimo Ye with red eyes, and took a step back.

The man on the ground was lying straight on the ground, his eyes were wide open, as if he was dying.

Everyone was silent without saying a word, even though they were used to seeing life and death, they still couldn't help but feel a chill... This person was fine the moment before, why did he die silently the next moment?

How did he die?

Will it be their turn next...?

The invisible enemy is always the scariest.

Thinking of the thing hiding in the shadows that might be watching them, everyone felt a chill down their spines.

Shen Canglang frowned. He seemed to have seen a blood-red bug flying past the dead man just now, and then the man fell down and died... The death of that person was related to that bug?

Just when Shen Canglang was about to use his spiritual sense to investigate the surrounding environment, he suddenly heard Jimo Yue scream.

He was taken aback for a moment, and then he heard Jimo Yue screaming in tears: "Bug... bug! A lot of bugs!"

Before everyone had time to react, a burst of blood red appeared in front of their eyes.

Shen Canglang could tell at a glance that the overwhelming blood red was composed of countless blood red bugs.Those blood-red bugs were about the size of a human little fingernail, with a transparent shell and blood-red body.

Hundreds of worms landed on the body of the dead person first, and soon, the body of that person shriveled at a speed visible to the naked eye. In an instant, only a skeleton was left of that person's body.

Jimo Yue screamed, took a big step back, then turned around, and ran back staggeringly.

Girls are most afraid of insects such as reptiles and flying insects, not to mention that such insects are so terrifying!

"Yue'er! Don't run around!" Jimo Ye watched Jimo Yue rush into the unknown darkness, feeling anxious, and was about to follow, but was blocked by Nangong Zi.

"Even if the person who died was your father, you still have to move on... You said this just now, you won't forget it, right?" Nangong Zi pointed at Xiumei, the nine-section whip in her hand without hesitation, It waved towards the blood-red bugs that were overwhelming.

Gritting his teeth, Jimo Ye also drew out his sword, swinging it to drive away those blood-red bugs.

After all, they were martial arts practitioners, and the weapons they swung formed a circle around them. The blood-red bugs couldn't get close to them for a while, so they turned around and attacked the remaining dozen or so people.

When Jimo Ye dispelled the remaining insects, he couldn't help but secretly startled. These insects actually knew how to attack their weaknesses and avoid their strengths. Could it be that they were enlightened?

Shen Canglang spent a lot of time watching those people dodging the worms in a panic, but for some reason, the worms stopped moving forward when they were within three feet of them.

This situation is exactly the same as last time in the forest of Yinghuo.

Shen Canglang couldn't help being a little puzzled, are these animals really afraid of the swallowing beast?But that's all for spirit beasts, why are these mortal insects also afraid of swallowing sky beasts?They are obviously not a system.

But no matter what these bugs were afraid of, seeing that they did not pose a threat to him and Meng Kunlun, Shen Canglang didn't intend to do anything, so he folded his arms and looked at the abilities of martial practitioners like Jimo Yue and Nangong Zi.

Jimo Ye and Nangong Zi managed to escape the attack of those bugs, but the next moment, those bugs gathered together, formed a huge group, and attacked Jimo Ye and Nangong Zi.

Nangong Zi immediately touched the ground, took a few big steps back, and left the bug's attack range.

Jimo Ye raised his sword and slashed, splitting the worm cluster, and the worms scattered in all directions, attacking everyone present again.

Soon, seven or eight of the dozen or so people died, and their bodies fell to the ground and were quickly eaten away.

Surprised, Shen Canglang immediately took out a fire starter and threw it out.

A burst of fire exploded in the air of the fire talisman, and all the bugs that were contaminated with the sparks squeaked and scattered. The fire talisman burned very fast, and the moment the magic talisman was completely burned, the flames also disappeared.

Except for a few bugs that had run away, there was only blood-red bug corpses left on the ground.

There was an unpleasant smell of burning in the air.

Both Jimo Ye and Nangong Zi breathed a sigh of relief, their bodies were covered in cold sweat.

This kind of bug is really weird and vicious, as long as it gets on your body, it will be eaten by them soon... Even though they are all people who go to the grave to touch the corpse at a few years old, they have never encountered such a thing. Weird situation.

Jimo Ye regained his composure, looked at the corpse with only a few skeletons left on the ground, with a complicated expression.

If Shen Canglang and the others had shot at the beginning, maybe they would not have to die so many people... However, these grave robbers are people who walk between life and death, and they are used to life and death. When facing death, they are not as good. Ordinary people are so afraid.But relatively, because they are used to seeing life and death, they desire to live even more than anyone else.

In the end, Jimo Ye didn't say anything, just turned around and continued walking silently.

Nangong Zi's hand holding the nine-foot steel whip opened a few cuts, which were just bitten out by those blood-red bugs. Although she immediately crushed the bugs that sucked her blood to death, her hand There was still a big hole in it.

Nangong Zi lowered her eyes and hid her injured hand under her sleeve.

Her wound has already started to turn black...

Apprenticeship is not successful.

Before reaching the main tomb, they had already lost more than half of their manpower, which had never been encountered before.Everyone's heart is heavy, especially the leader Jimo Ye.

His second uncle disappeared in this ancient tomb, his life and death are unknown, and his younger sister has also been separated...

Now there are only ten of them left, and the road ahead is still unclear.

"They shouldn't be dead yet." Nangong Zi said suddenly.

Jimo Ye raised his eyebrows and looked at her.His face was still a little pale, but he has calmed down now.

"If they were attacked by those bugs as soon as they came in, then at least there should be bones left, but there is not even a single bone found there," Nangong Zi said slowly, "Either none of them were broken safely. left, or they went the other way."

They have walked all the way to this tomb, and there is only one way. The second possibility should not exist.

Jimo Ye didn't say anything, just walked in silence.

Everyone was preoccupied and speechless all the way.

Shen Canglang and Meng Kunlun were still at the end. After walking a few steps, Shen Canglang quietly said a word to Meng Kunlun with his spiritual sense.

"They're hiding something."

Meng Kunlun turned his head and looked at him fixedly.

Shen Canglang automatically interpreted Meng Kunlun's expression... "Why do you say that?"

Shen Canglang didn't move his mouth, and continued to use his spiritual sense to talk to Meng Kunlun: "It is absolutely impossible for a third-tier warrior to be so weak. When I was observing Jimo Ye just now, he was also observing me."

Meng Kunlun raised his eyebrows, and Shen Canglang automatically interpreted his expression... "And then?"

"He was hiding his clumsiness. He could have rescued those people...but he didn't. He seemed to want to let those people die on purpose."

A gleam flashed in Meng Kunlun's eyes.

"No, it's okay, let's keep watching, sooner or later we will know what they are doing... Isn't this interesting?"

Meng Kunlun nodded.

They continued walking until Nangong Zi's voice came: "There is a tomb here."

"Go in and have a look." Jimo Ye said.

Everyone entered the tomb together, the tomb was pitch black, and you couldn't see your fingers...Jimo Ye lifted the oil lamp, and the dim yellow light vaguely illuminated the appearance of the tomb.

"There are murals in front..." Nangong Zi suddenly said.

Everyone looked in the direction she pointed, and there was indeed a huge mural carved on the wall in front of them.

These murals are painted with unknown materials, and the color of blood red outlines murals representing mysterious meanings.

"This seems to be about what happened 1000 years ago when Chaotian founded the country." Nangong Zi looked at the murals and said slowly.

"1000 years ago, at that time Chaotian had not yet been established, many countries were divided, wars continued, and the people were miserable," Jimo Ye continued, "Later, Chaotian Emperor Chaotian, the founding emperor of Chaotian, unified the world and created Chaotian's foundation for thousands of years... He pointed to the first mural. There were many people in the mural. They were kneeling towards the sky. There was an auspicious cloud floating in the sky, and a person was sitting on the auspicious cloud.

Some of the murals in the middle depict things after the reunification of Chaotian. After that, there was a rebellion of ethnic minorities, but it was suppressed in the end. Several of them are war scenes. There is an auspicious cloud floating in the auspicious cloud, and a person is sitting in the auspicious cloud.

Could it be that Emperor Chaotian is a cultivator?Shen Canglang couldn't help thinking.

"Emperor Chaotian wanted to be immortal all his life, but in the end he failed to achieve immortality. Before he died, a wandering cultivator gave him the seeds of a longevity tree and asked him to plant it, and told him that in 1000 years Afterwards, the longevity tree will bloom and bear fruit, and at that time, he will be able to gain longevity by taking the fruit that grows from the longevity tree."

Jimo Ye looked at the scene depicted in the last painting, and said slowly.
