The Dark Ages

Ahead, on a deep passage, a young man and two girls were slowly walking by. The young man was carrying a huge iron cage, and there were two people lying inside.

Brother, the tomb suspension bridge should be ahead.

Long Xiaoqian pointed to the front, the looming suspension bridge, which was the only passage and entrance leading to the bottom of the Jiuli Tomb.

Soon, the three of them came to the side of the suspension bridge. Looking at the huge ravine in front of them, it turned out to be a surging underground river, with a suspension bridge driving over it.

Nine huge iron cables connected to the opposite side, making Qin Tiange curious, thousands of years have passed, these iron cables are still not broken?

Moreover, these iron chains are not rusty, and some cannot believe what material they are made of.

I have to say that the wisdom of the ancients can sometimes shock and inconceivable our descendants.

On the suspension bridge, there are no wooden boards, and it has long been decayed. The only thing left is nine thick iron chains, which are connected to the opposite entrance.

Snapped!

Qin Tiange first stepped on a thick iron chain. After trying it, it was really strong. Although it shook a little, it was not a serious problem.

With his current strength and control, it is very easy to walk this iron chain, and he can walk over it like flying with the iron cage on his shoulders.

Behind, Long Xiaoqian and Mi Xi looked at each other, nodded solemnly, and both walked on a thick iron chain and walked over.

The suspension bridge is 50 meters long, which is actually not that long. It will soon come to an end. The three of them stood in front of this entrance and watched quietly.

There is light inside... Qin Tiange frowned slightly, looking at the entrance, a trace of light came out, feeling very strange.

When the three of them stepped into it, they immediately felt an extremely eerie and strange aura rushing towards their faces, and they couldn't help but get goosebumps.

Mi Xi's complexion changed slightly, and she looked around vigilantly. The scales on the snake's body trembled, as if she felt something.

Long Xiaoqian's pretty face was solemn, and she reminded: Brother, be careful, I can feel the breath of Gu insects, there are many, very many.

clatter...

As soon as the words fell, there was a rustling sound immediately ahead, as if countless poisonous insects were crawling, which aroused the vigilance of the three of them.

Qin Tiange squinted his eyes, carrying the iron cage in one hand and the halberd in the other, with a stern expression, staring intently at the caves in front of him.

The sound came from there, and soon, a huge black torrent gushed out of the darkness, densely packed with unknown bugs.

Corpse-eating insects? Long Xiaoqian's face changed slightly, seeing the insects swarming up densely, they were exactly corpse-eating insects.

These bugs gnawed on dead bodies, but they also gnawed on living things. Just like now, they immediately rushed out when they smelled the smell of strangers.

boom!

At the moment when countless corpse-eating insects rushed in, Qin Tiange suddenly waved his hand and shot out a burst of blazing flames, sweeping past with a rumble.

As Cang Yan passed by, countless corpse-eating insects immediately turned into fly ash, and they couldn't stop Qin Tiange's terrible bursting flames.

Soon, the number of corpse-eating insects gushing out from several caves decreased, and gradually no corpse-eating insects rushed out, and only a thick layer of ash stood on the ground.

Brother, you are amazing! Long Xiaoqian was inexplicably astonished, only to realize that she still underestimated Qin Tiange.

On the other hand, Mi Xi stared wide-eyed, and the eyes were full of brilliance. This brother Qin seemed to be very mysterious and surprisingly powerful.

After solving the corpse bugs, the three of them continued to move forward. Not a single bug crawled out of the small holes and cracks on both sides, as if they had been killed.

hiss...

Ahead, a faint light is falling, and a little bit of light lights up the dim Jiuli tomb, which seems to be a giant underground world.

When the three of them walked in, they were all stunned by the scene in front of them.

This... Looking at the scene in front of him, even Qin Tiange was stunned and couldn't believe it.

Here, there are actually plants living. Yes, in the huge space in front, there are all kinds of unknown plants growing, colorful and very visually impactful.

It is these colorful and strange plants that emit a little bit of light, illuminating the entire Jiuli tomb.

There's such a place underground? Qin Tiange was inexplicably astonished. He walked up and looked at the unknown plants curiously.

In front of him, there was a strange plant, the whole body was fat, it seemed to be a fleshy plant, the leaves were like fleshy leaves, exuding a hazy light, when he looked carefully, he found that it was powder.

This kind of powder is constantly scattered and floating in the air, and a little bit of fluorescence illuminates the entire underground world, making it appear confusing.

Be careful, these are poisonous plants, extremely poisonous.

Later, Long Xiaoqian stepped forward and reminded her. In fact, Qin Tiange knew that these things were highly poisonous without her reminding him. Moreover, the powder floating in the air also contained traces of toxin, but it was not so strong and had little effect on the three of them.

Qin Tiange spoke suddenly, and reminded in a low voice: Be careful, I feel a lot of breath here, very strange, like the breath of a dead person.

creak...

At this moment, there were bursts of noises from the strange poisonous plants all around, and hideous and terrifying poisonous insects emerged from among the poisonous plants.

It's a Gu worm! Long Xiaoqian's complexion changed slightly, and after chanting the spell, a piece of black powder was spilled from both hands, instantly forming a circle around the three of them.

Those Gu worms rushed up, but they all stopped outside the range of the black energy, and they didn't dare to take a step forward, they seemed very afraid.

Silver-backed centipede, dark green golden caterpillar, blood-dropping toad... Long Xiaoqian named these poisonous insects one by one, all of which were rare poisonous insects.

Moreover, these poisonous insects are extremely weird, not like ordinary things at all, but Gu insects produced by devouring each other, which is even more terrifying.

Even Qin Tiange saw some strange things wandering in the air, frowned secretly, guessing that it should be some colorless and invisible Gu poison.

Have you noticed? Along the way, it seems that you haven't found any bones, not even a little bit of broken bones. Where are the witch sacrifices that came in?

Qin Tiange suddenly mentioned this discovery, which caused Long Xiaoqian and Mi Xi to look suspicious. Thinking about it, this is really the case.

Generally speaking, there should be a lot of bones in the tomb. At least a hundred years ago, many witch priests had entered here to be buried before their death.

But there was nothing wrong with not seeing a single skeleton.

boom!

Surprised to see, a burst of flames rose up and quickly swept out around the three of them, burning all the densely packed Gu worms outside, and even some far away Gu worms retreated immediately to avoid them.

As the Cang Yan passed by, the plants were incinerated, the Gu worms screamed and wailed, and retreated crazily, as if they were afraid of these flames.

Soon, all the Gu worms backed away far away, not daring to take another step forward. Seeing this, Qin Tiange's face changed, he glanced at Shi Helie and his son who were still unconscious in the iron cage, and directly put the iron cage on the ground.

Let's go!

Qin Tiange smiled and walked in first, followed by Long Xiaoqian and Mi Xi, who quickly followed into the depths of the tomb.

Behind, around the iron cage, those Gu worms suddenly moved, frantically flocking towards the huge iron cage.

what...

don't want...

While in a coma, Shi Helie, Shi Ban and his son woke up in pain after being bitten by poisonous insects, only to realize that their bodies were densely covered with various poisonous insects.

Although these poisonous insects did not increase in size for some reason, these Gu insects were even more ferocious and strange.

From a distance, Qin Tiange and the others watched the iron cage being submerged by countless Gu insects, and there were bursts of shrill screams from inside, which soon died down.

Shi Helie, father and son, were devoured by those Gu worms, not a single drop was left, not even a single bone was left, even their clothes were eaten up.

It's so scary! Mi Xi was secretly startled, looking at the empty iron cage, those poisonous insects turned around immediately after eating the two people, salivating at Qin Tiange and the three of them.

Don't you think it's strange? Suddenly, Qin Tiange said something, pointing to those Gu worms and said: Look, these Gu worms seem to be controlled by some kind of force, as if someone is manipulating them behind their backs.

Hiss, it's really... Long Xiaoqian, who was a witch priest, took a deep breath and saw it immediately.

These Gu worms are actually controlled by someone, who is manipulating these Gu worms behind the scenes?

With doubts, the three of them came to the deepest part of the tomb, which was rumored to be the place where part of the bones of Chi You, the ancestor of Jiuli, were buried.

That is?

When they first came here, Qin Tiange and the other three's faces were slightly condensed, their eyes were suspicious, and they looked at a dark thing in front of them.

It was a huge black cocoon, surrounded by black light, surrounded by densely packed various poisonous insects, all of which were Gu insects.

Magic cocoon, magic insect god Gu, the rumors are actually true?

Long Xiaoqian's complexion changed drastically, and she exclaimed, her expression was extremely horrified, as if she saw something incredible.

That big black cocoon is a terrifying thing, a monster insect that claims to be able to compete with gods.
