Chapter 1175 The Secret of the Mural
Li Yue didn't know Long Wu's character, so when she heard him complain, she immediately showed remorse on her face, "Senior Long, I'm so sorry for causing you trouble."
"Liyue, ignore him. He just likes to talk but doesn't really have any thoughts."
Lu Chen glared at Long Wu, then tried to smooth things over.
As Lu Chen and others went deeper into the abyss, the surrounding environment became more and more eerie and terrifying.
Suddenly, a sharp sound of breaking through the air broke the silence, followed by a subtle but rapid sound of footsteps, as if countless small creatures were moving quickly in the dark.
"Everyone be careful! Something is coming!" Long Wu warned in a low voice.
However, in this mysterious abyss, their spiritual sense seemed to be restricted by some force, and they were unable to accurately see the specific location and number of the enemy.
Lu Chen and others took out their magic weapons one after another, preparing to face the impending danger.
Soon, dark shadows came from all directions like ghosts, so fast that they were almost impossible to capture with the naked eye.
Fortunately, the spiritual awareness of Lu Chen and others can still cover an area of several meters.
When they saw the faces of the shadows, everyone's expression became extremely solemn, especially Li Yue's, whose expression could be described as pale.
With divine consciousness, it was discovered that these black shadows were actually unknown monsters that looked like snakes but were not snakes. They looked very strange and creepy.
Their bodies are as thin as hair, yet have a flexible texture, as if they can be twisted into various shapes at any time.
Its entire body is covered with a layer of shiny black scales. The scales are extremely small, closely arranged, and emit a faint, cold luster.
The monster's eyes were like two blood-red gems, flashing a strange and fierce light, exuding a terrifying aura.
Their small mouths opened wide, revealing two rows of fine and sharp fangs, with crystal venom hanging on the fangs. In the dim light, they appeared a strange green color, and it was obvious at a glance that they were highly poisonous.
It happened in the blink of an eye.
In just a thought, the bodies of Lu Chen and others were instantly covered by these black shadows, and everyone hurriedly used their immortal energy to resist.
Who would have thought that these little monsters were very agile and strange. They easily avoided the attacks of several people, constantly shuttled around them, and occasionally took a bite.
Fortunately, the cultivation of these people is not bad, and the protective qi of their bodies is indestructible, so they managed to keep out the countless strange monsters that were as thin as hair.
However, that kind of scene is enough to make one's scalp tingle.
Lu Chen snorted coldly, and a purple flame quickly gushed out from his body, like a flexible fire dragon, sweeping over quickly.
The terrifying high temperature instantly burned everything around it, whether it was the remaining small snake-like monsters or the surrounding vegetation, all were reduced to ashes under this scorching power.
As the flames gradually died down, the men continued to move forward, a burning smell filling the air.
However, strangely, apart from the initial wave of strange snake-like monsters that appeared, Lu Chen and others did not encounter any further attacks.
The surroundings seemed unusually quiet, as if the whole world was holding its breath. Li Yue followed Lu Chen's footsteps and asked in confusion:
"Lu Chen, have you noticed that there doesn't seem to be anything dangerous here? Isn't it a bit untrue to call it Wutong Jedi?"
"Maybe we are just lucky." Lu Chen laughed at himself, but his eyes were still full of vigilance.
"No," Long Wu said solemnly, "There must be other threats here. We must be extra careful."
Then, the three of them continued to move forward, and soon after, Lu Chen and others came to a cave.
A complex and mysterious seal was flashing at the entrance of the cave, as if guarding some unspeakable secret.
Just as Lu Chen was concentrating on the mysterious formation seal in front of him, secretly circulating his immortal energy to break the formation,
Li Yue, who had been standing beside him, suddenly looked determined and volunteered, "Let me do it!" Her voice was crisp and firm, and was particularly clear in the silent atmosphere.
Lu Chen nodded slightly and did not refuse. He knew that since Li Yue said so, he must have his reasons.
Li Yue took a light step forward, quickly forming seals with her hands, and her movements were as smooth as flowing water.
At the same time, she muttered something, and a soft light slowly flew out from her palm, merging into the seal with gentle power.
In a moment, the light on the seal that was originally shining brightly gradually dimmed, like a flame that burned out and finally dissipated completely.
The seal was successfully broken, and the few people looked at each other and walked into the cave.
After entering the cave, an ancient and mysterious atmosphere hit them in the face, and they were immediately shocked by the scene before them.
I saw that the stone walls of the cave were covered with various murals. Under the blessing of the mysterious formation, these murals emitted a faint halo and appeared extremely clear.
Every stroke is vivid, as if bringing people into a real world and telling an unknown secret.
The first mural shows a deep cosmic void. In the dark and boundless void, a huge tree stands in it.
Its lush branches and leaves are like countless winding galaxies, covering the entire universe, exuding a mysterious and solemn atmosphere.
When Lu Chen saw this mural, his body trembled, and a trace of shock flashed in his eyes.
Because he could see that this big tree was clearly the grown-up Chaos Tree.
In his understanding, the Chaos Tree is an extremely mysterious and powerful existence. Now that he can see its appearance in this mural, he is filled with shock and curiosity.
Next, the mural depicts the origin of life. Various strange creatures are born from the branches and leaves of the Chaos Tree. They have different shapes and forms.
Some are like shining stars, some are like agile fish, multiplying and living in the void, forming a vibrant scene.
As they went deeper into the cave, the stories in the murals became more and more exciting.
Some murals depict a tragic war, with flames flying everywhere and countless lives lost. The Chaos Tree is also tottering in the flames, as if it is about to lose its vitality.
Others show a mysterious powerful man displaying his magical powers. With just a few gestures, the sky and the earth change color. He ultimately saves the world and brings the Chaos Tree back to life.
However, the Chaos Tree only lasted for a moment before it suddenly collapsed and scattered into the endless void of the universe.
As they went deeper, more murals gradually emerged.
However, when Lu Chen saw these scenes, his heart was filled with shock.
It was because he had seen the scenes depicted in these murals in the memory crystal ball in the ruins of Emperor Cangqiong in Fangcun Mountain.
The war scene depicted in the picture is the entire process of Emperor Cangqiong leading the human race to resist the extraterritorial demons.
However, the scene here is more detailed than what Lu Chen saw before...
