Chapter 95 Open the coffin! An unexpected surprise!
Sirens sounded throughout Donghai City.
City Hall.
Ji Bochang wiped his sweat tremblingly. Not long ago, he was excited because he didn't need to go to the ruins. However, after a short period of time, he became extremely happy and sad.
"How is the situation?" the mayor asked solemnly.
"very bad."
Ji Bochang took a deep breath and narrated softly:
"I've already asked the people below to try, but they can't leave Donghai City at all. And that's not all. We've found more and more people approaching outside the city. They are all wearing black clothes and black robes. They are suspected of being a cult!"
The mayor's heart was beating wildly. He walked to the window and looked at the bright sun in the sky, which even the continuous heavy rain could not cover his body. His expression was extremely ugly.
"A true immortal!"
He was almost lamenting, with a look of despair on his face, and his whole body was trembling.
Yes, the one in the sky must be a true immortal.
Only a true immortal can have such a grand vision, with purple air, flowers falling from the sky, and golden lotuses blooming.
There are even more fairy tunes intertwined into a magnificent movement, resounding from top to bottom and left to right!
A true immortal is suppressing the situation above, and cultists are coming from all directions in the city. Their purpose is self-evident.
The mayor murmured in despair:
"They want to use the East China Sea as a sacrifice to hold a grand ceremony."
Ji Bochang swayed, his face turned pale, and he asked:
"In the city, aren't there so many heavenly beings and even earthly beings in the city?"
"What's the use? If the true immortal in the sky suppresses it, what does it matter to the immortals of heaven and earth?"
Everyone else in the city hall fell silent, also falling into despair.
Although the federation has blocked the news of previous massacres in some cities, these officials are all members of the federal system. They have heard some rumors, but they never thought that such a thing would really happen to them!
After a long silence, Ji Bochang sighed dejectedly:
"I will organize the supervisors to evacuate the citizens first. Everyone should gather in the city center and prepare fortifications."
An official gave him a miserable look:
"Is it useful?"
"Maybe it's useless, but if you can delay it for a moment, just delay it for a moment." It was the mayor who spoke. He coughed softly and sighed softly:
"I have heard some news and rumors. In fact, top super figures all over the world hold such grand sacrifices every year or two, but they never kill civilians themselves. Instead, they kill them all by their subordinates, Only then does the real grand ceremony begin.”
After a pause, he smiled sadly and said:
"If we can defeat the cultists, we can definitely live for a while longer, at least until the One in Heaven becomes impatient."
Everyone in the conference room was silent. Ji Bochang stood up with a pale face and walked outside into the pouring rain.
The sirens that shook the entire Donghai City became increasingly harsh.
The deepest part of the tomb.
"This is."
Everyone had entered the Tongtian Portal at this time, and the scene in front of them suddenly changed, and they were all looking around.
They were in a huge hall. What was placed in the middle of the hall was not a throne, but a stone platform. There were eighty-one armored bronze statues on the platform, as high as people.
"Has this stone platform appeared before?" Chu Han asked in a low voice.
"That's right." The one who spoke was the Master of Qingxin Temple. He said attentively: "This platform did appear in the previous tomb chamber, even..."
As he spoke, he seemed a little unbelievable. He looked up and down carefully for a moment, and then said:
"It even seems to be the same platform!"
"Ah?" Someone exclaimed, very puzzled and confused, why does the same platform appear in two different places? ?
On the side, Lu Xuan was a little confused when he heard this. He had fallen directly into the [Original Point] before, and had not walked through so many tombs, nor had he seen this stone platform.
But soon, the heavenly being named Zhong Wuhuo explained to him and recounted his previous experiences.
"So," Lu Xuan said thoughtfully, "If it is determined that this platform has appeared before, is it possible that we are above or below the tomb that you walked through before?"
As he spoke, he pointed to the platform and said:
"There are mechanisms around the stone platform. If I guess correctly, it should be able to control the upward or downward movement. Is it possible that the mechanism on the stone platform was activated when the door was opened?"
While speaking, Lu Xuan slowly walked forward and carefully observed these bronze statues, and was shocked.
Although the face of the bronze statue is very clear, I don’t recognize it, but
The armors, weapons, etc. on these bronze statues are exactly the same as the eighty-one armors sent by Emperor Zhou in the dream to protect him!
In addition, the number was all eighty-one, which made Lu Xuan have some speculations in his mind.
After observing for a while, he raised his head and continued to look forward. Behind the stone platform was an extremely huge coffin!
The coffin is engraved with various extremely mysterious runes, which seem to explain all kinds of principles of heaven and earth. There are also patterns of mythical creatures such as dragons and phoenixes, and underneath are carved scenes of people offering sacrifices.
"If nothing else, it should be the coffin of the owner of the tomb!" Wang Zhiyao swallowed, with a chill running down his spine, and said tremblingly:
"One...the coffin of the Heavenly Lord, and the person lying inside will be..."
No one answered, no one dared to think about it, and they all felt a little scared.
On the contrary, Lu Xuan looked the calmest and he was really calm.
It doesn’t matter whether there are corpses in the coffin or not. If not, let’s not talk about it. It’s empty. If there is, it’s just a corpse. It won’t be a corpse. If it’s a corpse, that’s great!
good news!
Of course, according to Lu Xuan's own inference, there is a high probability that it is empty, or if his bones are really lying in the tomb, it will always feel a bit strange and a bit uncomfortable.
Thinking about it, he looked around calmly and saw that there was nothing else in this area, so he said:
"Well, let's go and open the coffin and take a look? If we really have a chance, it should be in the coffin."
"no!"
"Absolutely not!"
Everyone's expression changed and they all spoke out to stop him.
The leader of Qingxin Temple said with fear:
"No matter how much time has passed, no matter how many years have passed. Xiaoxu, didn't you see the number of the owner of the tomb engraved on the outside? Daojun Xuanqing, Tianzun Luxuan of Fusheng, Wushen Xuanhuang."
"Yes." Chen Dao nodded at this time, first glanced at Lu Xuan fearfully, and then said: "Brother Xu, let's forget it. After all, it is the coffin of an ancient immortal god. It is a bit rude."
"."
Lu Xuan helplessly held his forehead, then smiled and said:
"Forget it, if you don't go, I will."
As he said that, he waved his hand, and regardless of everyone's dissuasion, he strode forward and looked at the coffin carefully.
Even though I don’t know how many years have passed, a faint divine brilliance still flows on the coffin.
Without hesitation, he put his hands on the coffin and moved it with all his strength.
‘Boom! ! ’
The entire tomb shook violently, and clouds of dust fell. Lu Xuan quickly stopped and looked around in surprise.
"It's better not to open it." A heavenly being said in fear: "Just touching it will make the whole tomb shake. If it is completely opened, it won't collapse, right?"
Lu Xuan scratched his head and was about to say something when suddenly.
‘Boom! ! ’
The tomb shook violently again.
Everyone was stunned, ‘Wu Xiaoxu’ didn’t touch the coffin?
As the vibrations became more and more intense, a heavenly being's expression changed:
"No, the vibration seems to be coming from outside?"
Subconsciously, everyone turned around and finally discovered the source of the vibration.
The door to the sky, which had been closed after they entered, was rumbling, as if some creature was knocking on the door. Every time the door was knocked, the place shook violently, and dust fell like rain!
"Who is it?" Zhang Jifeng asked in surprise, but soon the question was answered.
The door was blasted open, and three stalwart figures stepped in. They were Hou Wushu and other earthly immortals! !
The expressions of Lu Xuan and others changed. Has the ban been lifted? Came in so quickly?
When the three earthly immortals stepped into this place, Hou Wushu swept around and asked coldly:
"What happened outside? Why are there so many corpses of heavenly beings? Why."
As he spoke, a cold light burst out from his eyes:
"Why did my attendant die?"
The divine light captured the soul, and everyone felt that their hands, feet, and souls were all cold, and no one dared to answer.
Lu Xuan's mind was spinning. It seemed that when the three earth immortals came in, they did not encounter Wu Shangpin and others who were running away. In this case
He waved, attracting the attention of the three Earth Immortals, and immediately explained:
"Before, when we came in, we encountered a large killing array. There were big thunders, divine spears, giant seals and other objects bombarding us. Many heavenly beings died in the resistance. The demon clan heavenly being was also struck by a large seal. Smashed to death."
Hou Wushu frowned, looking at Xiao Qi's body just now, it turned out that he was indeed hit to death by something.
Thinking about it, he looked at the young man who answered and asked coldly:
"You are quite courageous. You are not afraid when you see me."
Lu Xuan coughed and replied with a smile:
"My father is the deputy governor of Langya Province and an Earth Immortal."
Hou Wushu and the other two looked at each other, their expressions suddenly clear. It turned out that they were the sons of an earthly immortal. No wonder they could answer so fluently when facing themselves and others.
The dozen or so celestial beings and geniuses on the side looked a little weird. This 'Wu Xiaoxu' was really not blushing or out of breath when he lied so angry.
Wang Zhiyao felt a little relieved when she thought about how the young man had pretended to be an ancient creature. If the mask hadn't been broken, she and the others would probably have been kept in the dark.
Kong Jisheng stepped forward at this time. He did not ask how these heavenly beings and geniuses survived the killing array. Instead, he walked directly to the coffin and looked at it carefully.
The other two Earth Immortals also followed and stood side by side by the coffin without looking at Lu Xuan next to them.
The three of them carefully observed the coffin. After a long time, Hou Wushu pointed at Lu Xuan and said:
"You, come and open the coffin."
They didn't know what the situation was like outside. They could only pin their hopes on this super ruins, so they didn't dare to waste time. This was why they didn't ask carefully about the deaths of those talented people.
Lu Xuan raised his eyelids, but his face showed no displeasure. He just walked forward and placed his hands on the coffin again, exerting force suddenly.
This time, there was nothing unusual.
With a harsh friction sound, the huge coffin was slowly opened. Everyone held their breath and looked attentively. Lu Xuan put the coffin cover aside and looked inside.
He was suddenly startled.
Is Grandpa Chu lying in the coffin? ?
Cold air suddenly shot up from his spine, his heart contracted violently, and he was completely confused. It wasn't until a voice of doubt made him come back to his senses.
"Why is it empty?" Hou Wushu asked in confusion: "Just a bronze fragment?"
Lu Xuan was stunned, wiped his eyes, and looked again, only to find that it seemed to be just an illusion. The person lying in the coffin was not Grandpa Chu, but a bronze fragment.
He has two such bronze fragments, both of which are related to Grandpa Chu!
Thinking back to the disappearance of Grandpa Chu’s body and the bronze fragment that replaced it
The young man's heart suddenly moved, he didn't speak, he just stood quietly aside.
At this time, Hou Wushu waved slightly, and the bronze fragments flew up and fell into his palm.
"Strange." He frowned and said, "It doesn't seem to be anything special. It shouldn't be. It doesn't make sense."
On the side, the Earth Immortal from Sakata Heavy Industries also said doubtfully:
"This is the only thing in such a super ruin? This is very unreasonable and wrong. Or are there many places that we have not detected?"
Kong Jisheng shook his head and said softly:
"Along the way, there are indeed several treasures and large medicine fields, but they definitely do not meet the requirements of a large tomb of this size. However, these bronze fragments must not be simple, right? Is there anything else there?"
As he spoke, he pointed not far away in front of the coffin.
Everyone looked along and saw a very inconspicuous small stone tablet with two tokens inlaid on it.
There is one with the word "Bronze Guard" written on it. It doesn't seem to be damaged. Even after countless years, it is still intact.
The other token at the bottom looked very tattered, with many cracks on it, and seemed to be in a state of collapse. The writing on it was not clear.
"You, go up and take a look." Hou Wushu pointed at Lu Xuan again, his tone unquestionable.
After all, this is a large tomb, and it is also the tomb of a great immortal god. There may be some formations, mechanisms, etc., so it is better to be on the safe side.
Lu Xuan didn't answer, but walked forward quickly, approaching in two or three steps.
He knelt down and dug out the two tokens.
The moment the token fell, there was a vibration. Everyone looked around in confusion, but they did not find the specific source of the vibration, and the vibration did not dissipate.
Lu Xuan didn't care, but carefully looked at the two tokens in his hand.
The [Bronze Guard] token is very heavy and weighs heavily on the hand, while the other heavily cracked token is light and has no weight. No, to be precise, it is almost weightless.
Hou Wushu on the side looked around for a long time. Seeing that he could not find the source of the vibration, he ordered Lu Xuan again:
"Bring the token!"
But Lu Xuan didn't listen to him this time, he just stared blankly at the cracked token.
Through the cracks, you can barely make out the words on it.
【Shou Zang Shi Ling】.
Lu Xuan held the token tightly, slowly raised his head, and looked at the three Earth Immortals, with a big smile on his face.
