I picked up skill fragments in the demon world
#199 - Mystery of the Great Tomb
Upon hearing the word ‘Earth’ from the youth, Zhang Chen was stunned. He looked at ‘Earth’ with wide eyes, about to ask more questions, when suddenly the space before him shattered, and Zhang Chen found himself back in his own world.
“I wasn’t gone for long this time. I didn’t even have time to do anything, so why am I suddenly back?” Zhang Chen opened his eyes before the bronze gate, a hint of surprise in his eyes.
“That’s not right. It seems like there was a strange force that ‘pushed’ me out of the mental world.” Zhang Chen carefully recalled the scene in the mental world, a thoughtful expression on his face.
“What a pity, I didn’t get a chance to ask about clues regarding ‘Emperor’. It seems I can only wait a few hours to recover my spirit and then find a way to enter again,” Zhang Chen thought to himself.
Seeing Zhang Chen wake up, the fox spirit Nannan approached and asked, “How did it go? Did you figure out a way to enter the tomb?”
Hearing this, Zhang Chen circulated the five-element divine light within his body, his eyes fixed on the bronze door before him, and he thought to himself, “I wonder if the two beams of light, one black and one white, that shot out from the bronze door are the mysteries of the five elements…”
Thinking of this, Zhang Chen suddenly felt a jolt in his heart: “Could it be? Could there really be such a coincidence? The exact same two beams of light? The same stone ball, similar pronunciation…”
Zhang Chen felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his mind filled with incredulous thoughts. He immediately stood up and walked to the bronze gate: “If, and I mean if, my guess is correct, then I once refined the strangeness of the black and white light. I should be able to control and sense it.”
Zhang Chen slowly reached out his hand, gently placing his delicate, snow-white palm on the bronze gate. He tentatively poured his magic power into the bronze stone door, and the next moment, a huge wave surged in Zhang Chen’s heart. He had actually established a connection with something behind the stone door.
“This is impossible! How is this possible? I clearly entered the First Heaven, so how could I have returned to the past? And even met ‘Earth’ in the Ape Tribe?”
Incredulous thoughts flashed through Zhang Chen’s mind, and then he silently communicated with the connection behind the bronze door. The next moment, he withdrew his palm and looked at Zhong Xiang: “Kid, come here.”
As he spoke, Zhang Chen removed the immobilization talisman from Zhong Xiang.
“What are you going to do again? We can’t break open this bronze door. Let’s just call for outside help,” Zhong Xiang asked as he reluctantly walked forward, not daring to disobey Zhang Chen’s orders.
Without a word, Zhang Chen condensed an ice blade in his hand again. Before Zhong Xiang could react, he pressed him against the bronze door, then gathered ice around himself for protection. Next, he raised the blade and stabbed Zhong Xiang directly in the butt.
“How vulgar! Can’t you choose a different spot?” Zhong Xiang’s voice, from within the flames, was filled with dissatisfaction.
“Stop complaining and quickly use your flames to burn the bronze door,” Zhang Chen urged.
“What good will burning it do? We can’t resist the black and white light on the bronze door at all. We’ll just be asking for trouble,” Zhong Xiang said unwillingly.
“Are you going to burn it or not?” Zhang Chen was eager to verify his guess, and scolded impatiently, glaring at him.
“Burn!”
The situation was stronger than him, so Zhong Xiang could only lower his head. Flames burned around him as he pressed against the bronze door.
As the bronze door gradually turned fiery red and hot, surprisingly, no black and white light erupted.
“Huh?” Zhong Xiang’s expression was surprised, his eyes filled with confusion.
At this time, Zhang Chen, standing behind Zhong Xiang, also had a shocked expression. The emotions in his heart were like raging waves: ‘I just communicated with the strangeness behind the bronze door, and I didn’t expect it to actually work?’
As the fiery flames burned, the bronze door began to gradually soften, turning into molten liquid. Bright red molten iron dripped onto the bluestone, and soon burned a hole the size of a dog hole.
The flames stopped, and Zhong Xiang turned his head to look at Zhang Chen: “How did you do that?”
Zhang Chen did not answer Zhong Xiang’s question. He directly stuck a Suppression Talisman on him, and then the next moment, he directly crawled through the dog-sized hole. He couldn’t wait to enter the door and verify his guess. If his guess was correct, then the woman in the tomb should theoretically be his great-niece.
“Good move!”
Zhong Xiang was stunned by Zhang Chen’s actions. He also squatted down and crawled through the dog-sized hole.
But as soon as he entered the hole, Zhang Chen couldn’t help but be stunned, because he had entered a talisman formation.
The talisman formation was black and white, covering a thousand meters of space. The whole world was a hazy black and white.
In the center of the black and white world, there was an altar. On the altar was an offering table, and on the offering table was a tray. The tray was covered with red silk, and it was impossible to see what was on the tray, but Zhang Chen could sense that what he was looking for was in the tray.
However, Zhang Chen did not move rashly, knowing that this was a talisman formation, and possessing a talisman formation himself, he naturally knew the terror of talisman formations. Fortunately, he could communicate with the objects on the offering table, and at this time, a stream of information directly entered his mind.
“This talisman formation was set up by ‘Emperor’, using the ‘Mystery of Black and White Light’ to suppress the great formation. The ‘Mystery of Black and White Light’ is the core of the great formation. The talisman formation draws on the origin of the Black and White Mystery, used to guard the weakest entrance of the great formation.” Zhang Chen naturally knew the information of the feng shui formation.
“Treasure!”
At this time, Zhong Xiang closely followed Zhang Chen and crawled in. When he saw the tray on the offering table, his eyes lit up, and without a word, he pounced on it, wanting to seize the treasure before Zhang Chen could.
“A brute.” Zhang Chen shook his head when he saw Zhong Xiang’s actions, and did not go forward to compete with Zhong Xiang.
Sure enough, the next moment, the black and white space suddenly trembled slightly, and then a black and white stream of energy rose up, like two pythons, strangling towards Zhong Xiang.
Zhong Xiang also had some tricks up his sleeve. He flashed aside, avoiding the yin and yang energy, and landed directly on the altar. Then, he reached out his hand directly to grab the tray, but who knew that a metallic luster shield suddenly appeared, covering the treasure and blocking Zhong Xiang’s hand outside.
“How can a mere trick stop me? Fire overcomes metal, watch how I break you!” Zhong Xiang said with a look of disdain, his mouth full of ease. The next moment, the flames around him poured out, but no matter how much his flames burned, he could not do anything to the light shield.
Just as he was delayed for this moment, the black and white energy stream followed like a shadow, and in an instant, it beheaded Zhong Xiang.
“Fuck!” Zhong Xiang was reborn as a flame, unable to help but curse. However, before he could stand firm, the black and white energy stream had already strangled over again.
“Save me!” Zhong Xiang panicked at this time, wanting to escape in the great formation, but before he could step forward, the black and white energy stream had already strangled over one after another. Zhong Xiang’s body turned into a ball of flame, and the flame instantly collapsed, falling in all directions.
Helplessly, Zhong Xiang adopted the routine of pretending to be dead again, lying on the ground pretending to be dead to avoid strangulation. Seeing Zhang Chen holding a Suppression Talisman in his hand, walking towards him with a lewd smile on his face, Zhong Xiang was so angry that his nose was crooked, but at this time, the black and white energy stream had not yet dissipated, so he did not dare to move in the slightest, and could only let Zhang Chen stick the Suppression Talisman on his body.
“Why doesn’t that strangeness attack you?” Zhong Xiang was stuck with the Suppression Talisman, lying on the ground staring at Zhang Chen with wide eyes, his eyes full of disbelief.
“Because this thing only attacks stupid people.” A mocking smile appeared on the corner of Zhang Chen’s mouth, and then he walked towards the altar with his chest out and his head held high.
Hearing Zhang Chen's words, Zhong Xiang's face turned green with anger: "A petty man who gets his way, one day I will teach you who the real fool is."
Zhang Chen slowly walked to the altar, and the next moment, a metallic luster barrier appeared in front of the altar, blocking Zhang Chen's path.
Watching the metallic luster barrier, Zhang Chen tentatively probed it, while Zhong Xiang sneered: "Even a twelfth-order deity can't break this barrier, you think you can break it? Dream on!"
Zhang Chen ignored Zhong Xiang's words, and after a moment of contemplation, he unleashed the Five-Colored Divine Light, and the golden barrier shattered directly, turning into a golden stream of air, which was directly absorbed by the Five-Colored Divine Light, revealing the entire altar.
"How is that possible!" Zhong Xiang was stunned by this scene.
Then Zhang Chen ascended the altar, slowly pulled open the red silk, and couldn't help but be taken aback, what came into his eyes was a pair of scissors.
The scissors were strangely shaped, with dragon-shaped runes branded on them, from the tip of the scissors to the handle, as if two strangely shaped true dragons were intertwined, very majestic and domineering.
The two true dragons, one white and one black, but at this time the scissors were covered with fine cracks, as if they could collapse at any time, and the previous feelings came from these scissors.
"The scissors are already broken, and their power cannot be activated, only relying on the rune array, can they exert a little bit of power!"
"In the past, 'Di' swept the world, collecting countless beliefs, and actually nurtured this treasure, but later 'Di' experienced an unknown tragic battle, and actually damaged this treasure." Zhang Chen couldn't help but feel a little heartache, this is his treasure, if he had known this, he should have listened to the words of the Great自在天魔, that dog thing, and left the treasure in the nest, to continue to be nurtured by that land of creation.
As if sensing Zhang Chen's sad emotions, the scissors vibrated and hummed gently, as if responding to Zhang Chen's words.
Zhang Chen stretched out his palm, took the scissors in his hand, and poured mana into them, and the next moment, the scissors trembled, and two ancient characters appeared: Jin Jiao (金绞).
"Jin Jiao Scissors?" Zhang Chen recited the words, and the next moment the scissors turned into a black and white streamer, disappeared into Zhang Chen's hands, and entered Zhang Chen's Azure Lotus.
Strands of mana nourished the Jin Jiao Scissors, and Zhang Chen could feel the joy of the Jin Jiao Scissors, as if mana could repair its injuries.
"If I want to repair the Jin Jiao Scissors, I still need to seize the time to improve my Qi training technique, mana can repair the Jin Jiao Scissors, which is good news for me." Zhang Chen thought to himself.
The Jin Jiao Scissors are the core of the rune array, and as Zhang Chen put away the Jin Jiao Scissors, the rune array collapsed, the altar in front of him disappeared, everything shattered, and only a dark and long passage appeared in front of him.
"What is that treasure?" Zhong Xiang saw the rune array disappear, quickly got up from the ground, and looked at Zhang Chen with his eyes.
"I don't know!" Zhang Chen perfunctorily answered his words, in his heart Zhong Xiang was a dead man, when he obtained the treasures in the tomb, he would kill him.
"If you don't want to say it, then don't, what's the big deal?" Zhong Xiang stood behind Zhang Chen and muttered.
Zhang Chen looked at the dark and long passage, pointing and ordering Zhong Xiang: "You go ahead and lead the way."
Zhong Xiang looked unhappy, but when he saw Zhang Chen making a butt-stabbing gesture, he subconsciously covered his butt, and then slowly walked into the darkness.
But after walking a few steps, Zhong Xiang stopped, stood in the darkness and turned his head to look at Zhang Chen.
"Keep going! What are you doing standing there?" Zhang Chen looked at Zhong Xiang and scolded him unhappily.
Zhong Xiang stood in the darkness in silence, and then said in a voice full of grievance: "I'm afraid of the dark..."
"You're a grown man and you're afraid of the dark?" Zhang Chen was speechless.
Zhong Xiang stood in the darkness without speaking, Zhang Chen had no choice but to order the fox spirit to bring a night-luminescent pearl from outside, and then Zhang Chen rolled the night-luminescent pearl from the ground, Zhong Xiang quickly picked it up and held it in his arms, and then the corner of his mouth curled up, and he walked boldly in the dark passage.
Zhong Xiang walked in front, Zhang Chen quietly followed behind, the two walked in the passage for a while, there was no danger, but they were blocked by a bronze door.
Zhong Xiang stopped in front of the bronze door, turned back and looked at Zhang Chen, and saw Zhang Chen walk forward and take back the night-luminescent pearl from Zhong Xiang's hand, and then ice blades gathered in his hand: "Do you know what to do?"
Zhong Xiang looked at Zhang Chen's ice blade, and felt a pain in his butt: "I said, can't you... can't you change the way?"
Even if Zhong Xiang didn't know how to scold people, he couldn't stand being stabbed in the butt all the time.
Responding to Zhong Xiang was Zhang Chen's cold and merciless knife, which directly stabbed into Zhong Xiang's butt, and immediately saw scarlet magma flowing directly from Zhong Xiang's butt.
"Cold-blooded and ruthless beast!" Zhong Xiang cursed, but still rushed towards the bronze door.
Zhang Chen retreated far away, this time the bronze door did not act up, but was smoothly melted into a dog hole, and Zhong Xiang, without saying a word, rushed into the dog hole first.
"This kid wants to run!"
Seeing Zhong Xiang's movements, Zhang Chen quickly came behind Zhong Xiang, looked at Zhong Xiang's half body that had drilled in, his butt was still exposed outside, stretched out his hand and patted Zhong Xiang's butt: "If I were you, I would never do such a stupid thing, how can your speed of drilling a hole be faster than my speed of chasing you?"
Zhang Chen took out the Suppression Talisman, and was about to stick it on Zhong Xiang, but who knew that Zhong Xiang was like a frightened rabbit, panicking and retreating from the bronze dog hole.
"Why are you running out? Get in there!"
Zhang Chen stuck the Suppression Talisman on Zhong Xiang, pushed Zhong Xiang's butt, and was about to push Zhong Xiang in.
"Run! Run! There is great terror inside!" Zhong Xiang's panicked voice came from behind the bronze door, desperately retreating.
Unfortunately, it was too late, the next moment Zhong Xiang turned into flames, his Qilin Heart was actually stimulated, and then he heard a scream from behind the bronze stone door, and then he saw Zhong Xiang retreat quickly, stood up and ran away.
"Why are you running, can you run away?" Zhang Chen saw that Zhong Xiang was about to run, and quickly chased after him, waiting for the flames on Zhong Xiang's body to disappear, he stuck the Suppression Talisman on him.
But before the two of them had run a few steps, the next moment something that made Zhang Chen's scalp tingle happened, only to see that from behind the bronze stone door, a group of fist-sized, blood-red rats burst out.
The huge bronze door was eaten clean by the group of rats in a few breaths, and the overwhelming rats crowded from the passage, rushing straight towards the two of them. The group of rats moved quickly, as if they smelled the scent of blood, and rushed straight towards Zhang Chen and Zhong Xiang.
"Third-order! A group of third-order rats!" Zhang Chen glanced at it, there were countless rats, densely packed, piling up the passage like a disaster laboratory in a movie.
"Why are you running! It's just a group of third-order rats, go and burn them to death!" Zhang Chen caught up with Zhong Xiang, and at this time the flames on Zhong Xiang's body disappeared, and he returned to the suppressed state.
"Ninth-order! There is a ninth-order existence inside, if you don't run, you'll die!" Zhong Xiang ran wildly.
