fairy cage

Chapter 256
The golden bone pieces appeared in Yu Lie's eyes, and immediately attracted all his attention.

Looking at it from a distance, Yu Lie let out a sigh of relief, and secretly said: "It really is a treasure, and it looks pretty good!"

While Yu Lie was observing the golden bones, a voice suddenly appeared in his ears, it was the native language of this place:

"Isn't it pretty? What a beautiful treasure!"

The dry voice immediately aroused Yu Lie's vigilance, but he calmed down and just looked up in the direction of the sound without any change.

I saw a person wearing a blood-red cloak slowly coming out of the shadows beside him, and before this person made a sound, Yu Lie didn't notice any movement in that direction, as if the person appeared out of nowhere It seems to come.

The opponent's face was covered under the cloak, with full lips, and the exposed half of his face showed that this person was a woman, and most of them were undead, so her outline was good and quite charming.

But this person's voice was dry and hoarse, full of an old woman's voice.

The other party looked up at Yu Lie, turned his face under the cloak to the skull palace ahead, and said again:

"Even though the great king has fallen, his residual brilliance is still eternal, and even the gods cannot erase it.

Young people in a foreign land, would you like to hear me tell a story? "

When the female undead spoke, Yu Lie had already scanned the surroundings repeatedly to confirm that there was only the other party on the scene, and that there were no other enemies hiding in the dark.Moreover, after the female undead appeared, she recognized Yu Lie's identity at a glance, and she didn't yell at Yu Lie, her attitude was a bit intriguing.

So after thinking for a while, Yu Lie nodded towards the other party: "Your Excellency, please tell me!"

"Come with me, come closer."

A hoarse voice sounded from the mouth of the "old woman", and the other party walked towards the skeleton palace on its own.

Yu Lie also took a step forward, following behind the opponent not too close or far away. As for the soul-detaining girl under his command, she walked ahead one step ahead, placing her body between the two.

Arriving in front of the Skeleton Palace, the old woman said: "The king's coffin is inviolable, you and I stop here!"

At the feet of the old woman, one after another, the extinguished lampposts stood in front of them in an orderly manner. They were tall and thick, and there were dozens of them. The heads of different creatures were carved on them, as if they were directly inserted into the lampposts. on top.

"In the early days of modern times, there was a king named Yan, who calmed down the four directions and suppressed confusion. His achievements were comparable to the sun in the sky."

Slowly speaking, from the mouth of the old woman with her back to Yu Lie:

"Then the sun dimmed, and the king gathered all the feathers of the phoenix, melted the wax, weaved them into wings, stuck them on his back, flew into the sun, and burned alone, maintaining the sun's light.

This is the beginning of the ancient times in our world, the beginning of the twilight era.This king is the first king who ascended, and is also the existence whose remains are buried here. "

Yu Lie listened to what the old woman said, nodded slightly, and said:

"I also know about this matter."

The Taoists have been in the ferocious dragon court world for more than half a year, and they already have a good understanding of the background of this world.The story the other party explained just now is just a commonplace in this world.

"Jie Jie!" Perhaps guessing what Yu Lie was thinking, the old woman suddenly turned her head, stared at Yu Lie, and said sinisterly:

"But, is this legend true?"

This made Yu Lie raise his eyebrows slightly, and he tentatively asked: "Your Excellency, please explain clearly."

The old woman was refreshing, she continued hoarsely:

"The first generation of kings indeed glued wax into the feathers of the legendary phoenix and flew into the sun. But the purpose of the king is not to burn himself and light up the sun.

On the contrary, the king wants to take advantage of the weakness of the sun to rule the sun, kill the poisonous insects in it, complete the great cause that no previous king has accomplished, become the king of the sun king, and be promoted to the number one in my world since dusk. The first and last god! "

The word "becoming a god" immediately popped up in Yu Lie's mind, causing him to shudder violently.

It must be known that the gods in the mouths of aliens are different from the ghosts in the mouths of Taoists.

The latter, after the death of the seventh-rank Taoist official, the yin spirit is complete, and he has made a lot of achievements, so he can take up the post.The former is similar to the gods and earth in ancient times in the world of mountains and seas. Unlike the undead in the world of Longting, these gods are genuine immortals.

In terms of rank, the gods in the population of other worlds are equivalent to the fourth-rank immortals in the world of mountains and seas!
"Good guy, this first-generation king is really powerful, and his realm is about to become a fairy and a god." Yu Lie exclaimed in his heart, but he quickly realized that based on the current situation of Longting World and the rumors circulating in the world, According to the legends in the world.

This early king in the twilight age of this world obviously failed completely, even his skull was chiseled into 72 pieces, and he died without a whole body!
Sure enough, the old woman continued to mutter in front of Yu Lie: "The blood of the king, the bones of the king, ascended to sacrifice, and turned into ashes..."

She looked frantically at the golden bone fragments in the skull palace, and shouted: "The murderer who burned the king of our world pretended to be the king, made absurd last words, issued deceitful ambitions, attracted 72 loyal lords, divided My king's bones, in the name of sacrifice, divided my king's bones into 72 boundaries.

This is not a sacrificial sacrifice, but imprisonment, dismembering the corpse and sealing the spirit, so that my king will never be freed forever! "

Something different from the legends of the Dragon Court world was spoken from the old woman's mouth, which also made Yu Lie's eyes reveal a look of understanding and surprise.

According to what the other party said, the Ascension Sacrifice set by the first generation of kings in this world is not actually about the kings sacrificing their lives for benevolence, burning themselves and delaying the decline of the world.It was completely plotted against.

The opponent killed the king again and again, robbing the power gained by the kings by slaughtering all living beings.

"So that's the case..." Yu Lie pondered carefully, and found that what the strange old woman said did have some truth.

After all, from the first day he came to the world of Longting, he had doubts about the ways to slow down the decline of the world in this world, especially the information left by the Taoist Palace in the Dragon Qi, which directly mentioned that there were monsters who had landed in this world.

Although the old woman didn't point it out clearly just now, Yu Lie guessed that the murderer who assassinated the king of this world was the monster that came to the world of Longting.

Only the monsters from other worlds have the strength to devour the top powerhouses in the Dragon Court world like lambs!

After some words were spoken from the old woman's mouth, the other party turned around suddenly, facing Yu Lie, and shouted excitedly in his eyes:

"Stranger, I am the blood of the first king's soul-hunting daughter, the immortal priest of Hongyan City, listen to the king's voice, and obey the king's order. You come from a foreign land, you are not from this world, and you are not disturbed by the flames of evil spirits. You should inherit the will of the first king, lead this world, and conquer the sun!"

The other party chanted, turned around again, and knelt down towards the piece of gold bone, chanting in his mouth: "Come forward, you will receive the power of the first king.

From then on, you can let the earth use swords and weapons, make wine with blood, make steps with white bones, and use skulls as jewels... devour the souls of the dead, find the truth, touch 72 skulls one by one, until you lift up the throne and soar into the sun! "

Amidst the weird chanting sound, the 72 lampposts surrounding the skull palace burst into flames, emitting golden flames that were dazzling.

The golden skull in the palace suddenly shone like the sun, making it impossible to look directly at it, and Yu Lie had to squint his eyes.

I have to say that the scene in front of me is quite shocking.

Especially when those lampposts were lit one by one, Yu Lie immediately saw the illusion that he was walking forward slowly, and thousands of creatures knelt aside to welcome him to the Sun Throne.

However, this illusion only lasted for a moment, and the Dao script in Yu Lie's Lingtai was rippling, which shocked his mind, and he immediately regained his clarity.

At this time, Yu Lie opened his eyes wide, looked at the brightly lit scene around him with great interest, and thought to himself:
"I didn't expect these natives to really know how to play, and found that they couldn't deal with the monster in the sun, so they thought about letting the Taoists become kings."

He thought about it, and found that it was very possible that the matter of the strangers in the old woman's mouth had already begun before the arrival of the Taoists, but in the end it was the Taoist Palace who discovered this world and sent the Taoists, just by chance. .

In this way, it can also explain why Fangmen has a map of this place in his hand.

As a child of the family, the other party has a foothold, so he should have known about this matter before participating in this assessment, and it is likely that he came here specifically for this matter.It's just that people like Yu Lie don't know it yet.

Seeing that Yu Lie did not move, the old woman who was kneeling on the ground continued to chant:

"Confused stranger, quickly offer the soul of the dead in your hands, and I can guide the power of the first king, use the flesh and bones as firewood, burn the soul, and turn it into the power you need most in your growth!"

Yu Lie's eyes lit up when these words came out of the old woman's mouth.

Yu Lie understood completely now: "It turns out that this bone fragment has such a great effect, it can burn the soul and transform power, that is to say, it can turn the soul into spiritual energy, or even the energy of fire essence All kinds?!"

It's no wonder that Fangmen didn't collect much material for the fire-dispelling beads, they were just busy hunting. With this object, the other party only needs to collect souls.

However, judging from the fact that the other party still needs to trade materials for avoiding water beads, even if the skull of the first king can really transform aura and increase mana, it should be quite limited.Yu Lie even doubted whether this thing could be transformed into vitality for breakthrough.

He took a few steps forward with great interest, and got closer to the skull of the early king, looking at it carefully.

Seeing Yu Lie's movements, the kneeling old woman urged her again and again: "Honorable foreigner, please take the first step to ascend the throne!"

But Yu Lie looked at the skull fragment carefully, and when he heard the old woman's urging, he couldn't help saying:
"Noisy!"

A cold snort sounded, and the green steel wooden sword in Yu Lie's hand flew out, landed directly on the old woman's neck, and sneered around the opponent's neck without moving.

The sudden change made the old woman's expression froze, and the other party looked at Yu Lie in disbelief.

Her eyes turned back and forth between the golden bone piece and Yu Lie's eyes, and then she said cautiously:

"Stranger, the power of the first king is ahead, please take the first step towards the throne!"

Yu Lie heard it, but turned a deaf ear to it. He just nodded to the soul-guarding girl next to him, beckoning her to protect the law, and then he took out a few charms, called out a throwing knife, and shot around the skull palace.

Clang!

The sound of the flying knives colliding appeared, and when the flying knives were about to fly into the palace, the golden light on the skull fragments condensed into something like water waves, firmly blocking the flying knives from the outside.

"Hey!" The strange old woman who was kneeling on the ground recovered from her daze. She realized that Yu Lie was not tempted, and she didn't believe what she said at all.

So the old woman sneered and said:
"The mausoleum of the king has a golden will left. If it wasn't for the order of the first king, you would not even be able to enter this place. If you are a stranger, if you want to see the king's skull, you must enter by yourself!"

But Yu Lie just didn't listen to the old woman. Seeing that he had tested himself, but there was still no one around, he simply took out the gunpowder and fire pills he got from Qitu Liu, and boldly pushed his skull forward. The palace bombarded the past fiercely.

Zhang Xu's spacious skull palace, or the coffin, was immediately submerged in the gunpowder and burned.

But when the smoke of the gunpowder dissipated and the flames gradually extinguished, the skull palace was still standing in front of it, undamaged.

Such a situation made Yu Lie look disappointed, but he was not too discouraged.After all, regardless of whether it was based on judgment or what the old woman said, the skull of the early king is so important that anyone can take it away if they want to.

Before the assessment, the person who gave the map of Fangmen couldn't take it away, let alone Yu Lie, a mere low-level Taoist.Even if you can, it won't be easy.

Immediately, Yu Lie listened to half of the old woman's words, and he called out to the soul arresting girl beside him:

"Ru, enter for a try."

Without any hesitation, the soul-detaining girl nodded silently, and then walked steadily towards the golden skull fragments.

But at this time, the old woman's sarcasm sounded again.

"Hahaha!" She laughed sharply: "For foreigners, only the soul and body that have not been polluted can step into it and touch the king's skull!

Give up trying, the future of our world will depend on you and other foreigners, and you will also be crowned as kings! "

Laughing loudly, the old woman exclaimed excitedly, and she raised her hands, as if hugging the golden skull fragment in the empty arms.

But Yu Lie heard the other party's urging again, and finally couldn't help answering in the language of this world:
"It's ridiculous, what does the future of your world and your safety have to do with me?" His voice was cold and he sneered.

It should be known that Yu Lie came to this ferocious Dragon Court World just to participate in an assessment.

Even if this world is special, it is just an examination room under the command of Dao Palace.

Only when Yu Lie loses his mind will he listen to the old woman's flickering and seek to be crowned king in this world, and even kill the monsters in the sun.

Such things are not something that a young Taoist like him can consider.

For the current Yu Lie, the only important thing for him is to take advantage of his chance to come here, and try his best to search this place, especially the golden skull, which must be obtained!
