Vol 3 Chapter 101: Underground 5

Chapter 101 The Underground Palace 5
Of course, this underground cave cannot be as huge as Zhenhunyuan in the Gaoling Mountain. Basically, based on the place where the fire is shining, Shen Shi estimates that this is just a large hole several meters high, and it is in some corners. , It can still be seen that the rock wall and soil layer is actually not very solid. In some places, stones and broken soil are even falling down the cables, filling up a lot of space.
But this is the case. Just think about the cave in front of you that was not naturally generated, but was probably created by a monster, then the monster's size is quite impressive. But luckily, it seems that the monster did not show any interest in the seemingly weak creatures like Shen Shi Xiaohei at least just now. From beginning to end, it was just hitting the Demon Pillar desperately, seemingly wanting The idea of ​​escape trumps everything else. [__]Fiction
At this moment, the unknown monster didn't know where it was going. The huge cave was empty. Shen Shi looked for Zhong Qinglu but never found it, and his heart became more worried.
The cave stretched forward in the darkness, and it looked like the huge monster fleeing from here to the front, regardless of everything around it, leaving only an empty tunnel in the end. After pondering for a long while, Shen Shi finally decided to venture forward and search.
The firelight in the dark burns quietly, and it is particularly bright in this underground cave, but the darkness outside the firelight is also exceptionally deep and pitch black. There is always a feeling of peeping in the dark. . Xiao Hei also kept quiet and followed Shen Shi's feet, while looking straight ahead, occasionally raising his head to smell the air here, and he seemed to be somewhat vigilant.
The ground is not easy to walk, the potholes, including the large and small falling rocks and mounds that can be seen everywhere, make them difficult to walk, and they need to climb for a while to get over these obstacles. If it weren't for the unknown terrain, it was really not suitable for flying forward with the Qingxue Sword, Shen Shi really had the urge to take out the Qingxue Sword.
But no matter how difficult the road is, as long as you work hard, there will eventually be a difficult moment. After almost half an hour after climbing high and low, Chen Shi suddenly discovered through the fire light that the ground in the cave in front of him was suddenly flat. Down.
The reason why the appearance became flat is that there was a large flat stone suddenly appeared under the feet, including the surrounding of the cave, it seemed that it suddenly became flat. Shen Shi's footsteps paused, his eyes were not happy and worrisome, but the color of vigilance became stronger.
In the depths of the earth, if there were signs of artificial repairs of buildings suddenly, he could not think of other possibilities besides the legendary Yaozu underground palace, but the Yaozu underground palace has always been an extremely dangerous place. Even the immortal will have to concentrate manpower and material resources for years to unravel a corner of this underground labyrinth, not to mention that the legend is still hidden in this huge monster underground palace. Countless extremely vicious monsters and ghosts.
The wisest way at the moment, of course, is to go back. Although it is dark just now, there is no real danger from beginning to end. Just go back to the place where you just fell and try to fly upwards with the Snow Sword. Going out, this may be the most effective way out.
It's just...Along the way, Zhong Qinglu still disappeared.
Where did she go, what happened in that dark moment?
Shen Shi stood there in meditation for a long time, with a dilemma in his heart. It stands to reason that if Zhong Qinglu was still in a coma, then she would never have fallen so far after falling into the cave; but if she woke up, why did she disappear so silently?
Shen Shi couldn't understand this at all. The only thing he could barely explain after thinking about it might be that the monster just took away Zhong Qinglu alone for some reason. But no matter what he thought of breaking his head, he couldn't think of why the monster would notice Zhong Qinglu?
After hesitating for a while, Shen Shi gritted his teeth. If he just turned around, he would still not be able to pass the hurdle in his heart. And if he and Zhong Qinglu had been missing for a long time, Master and Master Yun Ni, the two great masters of the Yuan Dan realm, should have noticed something too.
Shen Shi cheered up, let out a light breath, raised the fireball in his hand a few points, and then continued to walk forward.
This time, because the road was much smoother, it was obvious that the forward speed increased. At the same time, Shen Shi quickly found more and more signs of artificial repairs, although the broken pieces could still be seen everywhere. Stone and soil piled up on the ground, but it seemed that he was walking in a long-abandoned corridor that was built by predecessors.
As he walked, there was also a dead silence in this tunnel, the fire illuminating the surrounding and front and rear directions, and suddenly in front, a tall shadow imprinted Shen Shi's eyes.
Shen Shi was taken aback and stopped, but the black shadow in front of him did not move. It seemed that it was only shaking with the shadow of the fire, and the body was still standing there quietly. Shen Shi took a closer look and found that there seemed to be a stone stele over there, and walked over carefully.
When approaching nearby, under the light of the fire, Shen Shi found that the stone stele was gray in color and hard in texture, but it did not have too many decorative patterns. To be precise, it was actually equivalent to cutting a piece of suitable talent into a long strip directly. In the soil, there is nothing else but nothing.
He frowned and looked up and down the wordless stone stele, but couldn't see any weirdness, and then shook his head slightly, thinking that there were some weird things that he didn't know under this monster clan underground palace. Not surprisingly, he stopped taking care of it, bypassed the stone monument, and continued to move forward.
It was just that when he walked by the stone tablet, he suddenly swept the back of the stone tablet from the corner of his eyes, but found that there seemed to be a line carved on it on the backlit stone surface, and he immediately stopped and took a closer look. , After a while, he could see the line of words engraved on the stone tablet upright, which was a sentence that seemed a little endless:
This place is eight hundred feet away from the diamond.
※※※
Diamond?
What is diamond? Could it be a kind of strange stone among the spiritual materials?
After staying for a while, Shen Shi's mind turned rapidly and began to recall everything he knew before, but he soon determined that at least among the many spiritual materials he knew, there was no such strange stone as diamond. But if it weren't for spiritual materials, what would this diamond be?
This stone stele was obviously built by ancients, but it must be so lonely standing deep in the ground that it must have an unknown meaning.
Shen Shi stared at this sentence, racking his brains and thinking, but after thinking about it, he thought of anything related to diamonds anyway, but afterwards, he suddenly thought that he had heard of it in the Zhenlong Hall a long time ago. In a series of Buddhism traditions, there seems to be a term such as vajra, but obviously it means completely different from diamond.
What the is going on... Shen Shi is puzzled, but it is obviously not a wise move to spend a long time on this stone tablet, so Shen Shi has been thinking for a long time but is puzzled, so he turned around and hesitated. After that, continue to walk forward.
The stele soon disappeared in a shadow behind him, as if it had never appeared before, and was buried deep underground in silence like this.
The darkness around it seemed a bit deeper.
The silence seemed to rush from all directions, except for the sound of footsteps echoing in this corridor from time to time, Shen Shi suddenly found that he seemed to be able to hear his own heartbeat.
It was a very bad feeling, which made Shen Shi feel in a trance for a while, but fortunately, at this moment, Xiao Hei suddenly groaned.
There is another voice beside him, which is better than anything else. Shen Shi's somewhat weird mood quickly calmed down, and he glanced at Xiao Hei who was walking beside him, with a look of relief in his eyes, but not long after, he and Xiao Hei almost stopped at the same time.
Because in front of them, there was a fork in the road ahead.
The passage on the right hand side is dark, and the passage on the left hand side is equally deep, but after looking carefully for a while, you will find that a faint light seems to be shining deep in that direction.
Other than that, everything was still extremely silent, only fire shining on Shen Shi and Xiao Hei.
Which of the two roads in front of you should be taken?
What does the warning about the diamond stone tablet mean?
