Chapter 2450 - Billions of Corpses
The cave was big, but only in comparison to his human form. If he became a dragon, he would not be able to do it, his body would definitely be supported, and the cave would be squeezed out and explode, but Long Chen understood, this was a cave of the Psionic Imperial Manor, could it be squeezed to explode?He took out the G.o.d Slaying Sword and stabbed through the walls of the cave for a few thousand meters, but they were still all mud. It seemed that the only way to leave this place was to enter the depths of the cave and not to destroy everything here.
If he couldn"t transform into a dragon, his fighting strength would be slightly weaker, but it wouldn"t matter. Even if he didn"t, Long Chen could still use Sea and Deadth Realm"s Dragon Gate during times of chaos.
Of the three, the use of the Deadth Realm"s Dragon Gate in the human form naturally did not rely on the body but on the hands.
After he was ready, Long Chen held onto the Heaven Smiting Sword and started moving forward in the wet cave. He did not dare to use his speed to avoid any accidents, and now that he was carefully inspecting his surroundings, Ling Xi was also helping.
To be honest, there wasn"t much danger in this cave.However, this place was even more frightening than the Ten Thousand Layered Spiritual Arrays and the Soul Puppet Divine Servant. How could it be so simple?
Thus, he dared not relax even more.The sword was a little uneasy as the small skeleton said: "Father, Father, the death aura here is heavy. A lot of people must have died here. Or maybe there are some strange creatures that have been gathering here for years, which is why such an aura occurred. "
Regarding the matter of the small skeleton constantly calling him father, even though Long Chen would correct it countless times, he was too lazy to bother with it. However, Long Chen took note of the words it was saying."Many people have died?"
Long Chen realized that when he used the G.o.d Slaying Sword to pierce through the ground, he had also pierced through a lot of corpses. The bones were not much different from humans, of course they were more similar to Spirit Race, any sword would be able to pierce through so many corpses, maybe there were really a lot of corpses here.He didn"t know how long this cave was. If it was tens of thousands of meters, or even longer, then there would be more skeletons. He didn"t know how much soil there was outside, or at least hundreds of thousands of skeletons.
Otherwise, there wouldn"t be such a dense and unbearable smell of death and bones.
However, no matter how many corpses were buried here, at least this cave was still quite clean. Nothing could be seen except for the wet soil.The surrounding aura of death was getting heavier and heavier. Compared to Deadth Realm, this aura of death was a little special. Deadth Realm"s aura of death carried killing intent, and in this place, it was smelly and dirty.
In this kind of place, with strong powers in the air, Ling Xi would also get nervous. Furthermore, Spirit King said that although this place looked simple, it was actually the place with the highest death rate.When he stepped into a certain range, Long Chen immediately felt the surrounding black and gray, mixed with the deathly gray gas. This gas was like a ghost, continuously surging towards his body, although it did not enter, Long Chen had already felt that the gas had formed a strange power, it actually made people tired, weakened, or it could be said that this was a kind of poison. Although Long Chen could resist it, but staying inside for a few more days, it would also be a very troublesome matter.
This should be a very profound curse. Once you step in here, you will receive this curse, causing your power to begin to weaken, but because your resistance to this kind of poison is very strong, you won"t be able to feel the degree of your exhaustion for a while. However, if you stay here for a long time, you will definitely be very tired.
Ling Xi began to say worriedly.
Long Chen"s eyes were firm as he said: "There"s no other way. If we want to charge in, we can"t just stop here."Ling Xi knew what he was thinking, and said: "Alright, then you be careful, I will search through the Sector lord Divine Arts for a solution."
This was the Ling Residence, and if there was a Spiritualism, it would be at the top, not even inferior to the essence of the Sector lord Divine Arts. Curses were one of the uses of the Spiritualism, and without a trace, it was even harder to deal with. However, this curse from the Psionic Imperial Mansion should be very terrifying.
Long Chen had already felt that the deathly gray miasma had already pa.s.sed through his obstruction and silently entered his body, attaching itself to the Primal Power of Reincarnation, causing Long Chen"s power to be exhausted. For the time being, Long Chen did not have a way to deal with it, but because of the fact that it was powerful, it was not just an ordinary G.o.d made of life, and its physique was extraordinary as well. This kind of curse did not have much effect on him at the moment, as the speed of its exhaustion was not as fast as Long Chen"s recovery speed.
However, he was afraid that the deeper he went, the deeper the curse.
"It looks like this trial has begun to take effect. "Killing intent is coming!"
Sure enough, it would be harder to deal with than the Soul Puppet divine servant, because the Soul Puppet divine servant was in the open, yet this place was filled with strange things. Until now, he hadn"t found an opponent, and the only thing he could find was this curse.
Ling Xi was unable to find a way to alleviate the pain, she continued to advance, the further she went, the stronger the curse was, and the more energy she had left. Although it was not a big deal for now, there was no guarantee that something big would happen.
This was also a test of their inner strength.
For many people, the power they relied on actually weakened. Moreover, the deeper they went, the more it weakened. Many people would be afraid, hesitant, and lose their courage.
However, Long Chen came here for the sake of duty and love. He was different from others, his strength lay in his inner strength.He walked on as if he had forgotten the curse.
There were two forks in the road ahead, one big and one small, which made it difficult to decide, as there were a lot of ideas, and a lot of guesses on which side was safer, so he considered the planners" idea, but Long Chen did not think too much, and directly took the larger route, because it would be more beneficial to his own battle.
Following that, the entire cave kept changing paths, there were even some that had five or six of them, and some even had seven or eight. Long Chen casually chose one and left, and the more he stayed here, the stronger the curses became, and sure enough, Long Chen realized that he had walked into a maze that was extremely complicated, he couldn"t even find his way back.
"Could it be that the challenge here is to make all the challengers wander around without stopping? If they can"t find an exit, then they will die due to the exhaustion of their strength?"
Although it was a scary trial, Long Chen felt that it was not that simple. The dense death aura here, the dense killing intent was not for show, and furthermore, if any ranker could not leave, they could just destroy this place.With Long Chen"s current strength, it shouldn"t be difficult for him to destroy these mazes.
However, he did not have such a choice. The test now was not as simple as just fighting strength. There had to be a better method.
He almost closed his eyes and walked around, trying to feel all the changes. The power of the curse gradually increased as time pa.s.sed, and the more of the curse energy that rushed into Long Chen"s body, the faster it would be used up, and the rate at which it would fail would already exceed the speed of recovery.
Ling Xi found a way to alleviate the pain and applied it on Long Chen"s body, causing the speed of the Curse"s invasion to be reduced by half, but she still could not get rid of it. However, she was still very powerful, and helped Long Chen gain at least two times the time!
Forward!
They were constantly reaching new places, but Long Chen was sure that he was still in this underground maze.
As long as his sword was aimed at the cave wall, it would pierce through countless corpses. The number of corpses in the ground would be many times greater than the number of corpses in the earth.
There are even tens of millions of corpses here. And then, every corpse is a part of the array, a part of this curse, and countless corpses are connected to form a ma.s.sive spirit array. The death aura is gathered into this cave, no wonder this curse is so powerful.
Ling Xi came to a conclusion that even frightened Long Chen.
He took a deep breath and said, "So that"s how it is, it is indeed difficult to deal with. Now that the situation is dead, it is not that easy to get people to leave. It seems that the requirements of this place have changed." If we were to use brute force to destroy all these bones, then it would be impossible for us to succeed. "
"Boss, you"re talking about so many corpses. Just who was it that died?"
The kitten asked sloppily.
Long Chen pierced his sword into the soil and pulled out a corpse. The corpse was slightly smaller than a human, but it was very similar, only that there were a total of 12 fingers on the two palms and 12 toes on the legs, which was the difference between them and a human."Not a human, but more like a type of spirit race."
Long Chen looked at it a few times, and said.
At this moment, the corpse turned into dust before his eyes and disappeared.
Ling Xi was suspicious: "That"s not right, during that time at the Spirit Race, Big Sister Hua Ling told me that all the Spirit Race members do not have six fingers."That was strange.
Then what kind of creature was this?
At this time, Long Chen held onto the Heaven Smiting Sword, and looked in front of his cave. Aside from the sound of dripping water, there was an extremely soft sound of footsteps, which meant that someone had arrived."Don"t touch their corpses!"
Only after the cave had been enlarged did it transmit to Long Chen. It was probably the voice of a little girl, a very soft and ethereal voice. However, when it resounded in this place, it still gave people a creepy feeling.
Long Chen stood in place, waiting for her arrival.
Her steps were light, and after walking for half a quarter of an hour, she finally arrived in front of Long Chen. They were very far apart, but when she turned the corner of the cave, Long Chen saw her. This was a little girl who was barefoot on the soil. Her height was only around Long Chen"s waist, and she was extremely young and tender, with a round face, but her body was a little skinny, and she was wearing an old set of black clothes. The difference was that she had a head of grey dry hair that almost reached the ground.
But Long Chen noticed her fingers and toes that were hidden inside her sleeves.
