Chapter 273 The Sacrifice of Eternal Life, a Secret Mission!
The two listened intently in the room. The movement outside seemed to have reached the stairs, and then they heard the sound of going downstairs.

The footsteps were heavy, as if something heavy was being lifted.

"They seem to have gone down."

Shen Xi immediately said: "Let's go out and have a look."

The two went out immediately.

The inn was very dark, and the two could vaguely hear the sound downstairs, and they waited until the sound disappeared before they went downstairs.

……

Under the inn.

A middle-aged woman dressed as a proprietress held a candle and lit the candlesticks on the wall.

A miserable green flame lit up on the candlestick made of skeletons, illuminating the downward stairs in front of you.

The woman walked in front, followed by two middle-aged men, each dragging an unconscious foreign businessman, walking all the way down, and finally came to a dark gate.

The two men threw the merchant through the door and lit candles separately.

The scene in front of him suddenly brightened. Looking inside, there was a spacious cellar with many skeletons piled up in the cellar. There was a round stone platform in the center, and a finely carved bone dagger was inserted in the middle of the stone platform. The dagger is surrounded by strange grooves, which are bent and complicated like branches, radiating around.

There are several ancient skeletons inlaid around the stone platform, and the end of the groove just leads into the mouths of these skeletons.

The woman pulled out the dagger, and asked two men to strip a businessman naked and place them on the stone platform like a pig. She hummed an unknown song, as if she was carving a work of art, and she was very familiar with the process. He was shackled and chained, and his mouth was gagged with a cloth strip.

Amidst the singing, the blood on the stone platform seemed to "come alive".

The woman took the bone dagger and gently cut open the man's chest, exposing his heart.

dong dong!dong dong!
In the silent and dark cellar, the man's heartbeat could seem to be heard.

Immediately afterwards, the woman slowly pushed the bone dagger into the man's heart until it penetrated the entire heart!
The man woke up instantly, as if he was about to sit up from the stone platform in shock.

The chains and shackles shook, holding it tight!

The man's face became pale and distorted. Because of the severe pain, large beads of sweat oozed from his forehead and face. The gloomy green flames in the cellar danced, making this scene even more strange and terrifying.

Then, a pitiful flame ignited on the stone platform.

Surrounded by shopkeepers and servants in the inn, with treacherous smiles on their faces, they stared at the man's blood flowing out from under his body, winding along the grooves of the stone platform, and finally flowing into the skeletons in the mouth.

The man trembled all over, as if struggling violently.

At the same time, green flames rose from the eyes of the skeletons around the stone platform, and the green flames spread with the blood, igniting the man.

The trembling of the man seemed to be weakened, his eyes were slack, the pain on his face gradually disappeared, and slowly turned into an expression of intoxication. Under such an atmosphere, he looked even more inexplicably strange.

And the evil smile on the woman's face became stronger: "It seems that you adults like this sacrifice very much."

A young man behind the woman showed a greedy and apprehensive look: "It's been done a little too often recently, is it okay? There are rumors in the city, and it seems that they are already investigating."

"Idiot!" The woman covered her mouth and smiled coquettishly, "there are many masters and ladies in the city who want the medicine of immortality. I heard that the sacrifices offered by the masters in the city are much better than ours. It's been so long Now, who actually found out what?"

The few people didn't realize that there were two pairs of eyes outside, and they were horrified to see this scene.

Both Shen Xi and Ye Ning saw faint blue words appearing from the corners of their eyes at the same time.

[Start Mission: The Sacrifice of Eternal Life
There seems to be a group of people who yearn for immortality hidden in this city, you can try to find their traces]

Ye Ning covered her mouth and tried her best not to make a sound.

Really have a mission!But this task is weird no matter how you look at it. As a martial artist promoted by taking pills, she has never encountered such a thing.

She had no choice but to look at Shen Xi who was on the side for help.

Shen Xi's face was also slightly pale, not because of fear, but because of anger.

She was dressed in blue clothes without any wind, her blue hair was flying, and an incomparably overbearing air enveloped the entire cellar in an instant.

Everyone in the cellar was startled, and at the same time, they were immobilized by the terrifying aura.

Then I saw a cyan sword shadow flashing past like flowing water.

The two strong men fell to the ground in an instant, and the sword, which was as green as autumn water, rested on the woman's neck.

"Who are you?" Shen Xi asked coldly.

When the woman encountered such a sudden change, she was shocked at first, but then the smile on her face became more intense.

She giggled, Shen Xi vaguely felt something was wrong.

"Sister Shen, back!"

Shen Xi immediately turned her head, and suddenly saw the two burly men who had been killed by her sword, got up from the ground without a sound, and the two headless corpses rushed straight towards her!
The autumn water was like training, Shen Xi cut open the two headless corpses in an instant, but at such a moment of distraction, he suddenly smelled a strange fragrance.

poisonous!She realized that it was not good, and hurriedly withdrew from the cellar!

Only then did the woman look at her with a smile on her face: "Sister, how does the drug taste?"

Shen Xi's complexion changed slightly, and she felt a strange medicinal power spread rapidly in her body, which immediately made her feel as if she could not use her strength.

Shen Xi took the next antidote without hesitation.

But soon, her face darkened even more.

The woman smiled and said: "It's useless, this is a drug that my family spent a lot of money to buy from the teaching, it's called 'Gentle Township', even the alchemy of the Eight Scenery Realm can't be lifted, but I didn't expect to use yours." body."

The woman licked her lips, feeling excited. She never thought that the drug prepared for the two Danxiu girls would come in handy!

She looked at Shen Xi: "My family can't wait to dig out your heart. You adults will definitely like it very much, ha ha ha ha."

Shen Xi's face was as frosty as frost. It was unexpected that the other party had such a high-grade poison, but she was not flustered. During the circulation of the stellar energy, the scabbard of the ancient sword behind her shone brightly. The white gemstone then lit up, and the light illuminated the pattern on the entire scabbard, and a ray of light flowed into Shen Xi's body.

During Shen Xi's actions at this time, streaks of white afterglow were formed, but she was not affected by the poison.

She held the sword in her hand, and the cyan blade left patches of white afterglow in the dark ground, piercing the opponent's heart in an instant!

The woman's face became astonished, and then turned ferocious again. She looked at her chest, and then stared at Shen Xi in front of her, chanting some inexplicable words quickly as if cursing.

The sword in Shen Xi's hand twisted on the opponent's chest, a large amount of blood flowed out from the opponent's chest, and the opponent's gaze gradually became lax, but the opponent still spit out certain syllables unconsciously, as if irreversibly calling for something.

At the same time, the heads of several corpses on the ground also turned around inexplicably, fixedly staring at Shen Xi's direction, and let out a wicked laugh.

Shen Xi was startled, she pulled out her sword, and the woman fell limply like a punctured sack.

But at this time, Shen Xi felt a little weak in his legs, staggered back a few steps, supported the door frame, and was able to stand up.

"Sister Shen!" Ye Ning hurried forward, "Are you okay?"

"Let's go." Shen Xi turned her head to look, and saw that the woman's body on the ground was shaking inexplicably, as if she would be resurrected at any moment.

Shen Xi took out a pill bottle from her bosom and threw it at the place where the woman was, and then a burst of thunder exploded, blowing up the woman's body to pieces.

But the woman's head also uttered the last syllable!
The woman's face turned to Shen Xi, her mouth opened and closed, and there was a strange smile on her face, like a curse.

A terrifying gust of wind then swept through the entire cellar.

The woman's head was pulled by a force, hanging in the center of the altar.

The blood scattered on the ground seemed to be controlled by some unknown force, and they all converged towards the central magic circle. The strong wind surged in the cellar, and all the broken corpses on the altar and on the ground were pulled to the altar by an unknown force above.

This kind of thing makes people's scalp numb.

Shen Xi and Ye Ning had just walked to the door, and then felt a huge suction force, making them unable to stand still, as if they would be thrown upside down in the next moment.

Shen Xi instantly thrust the sword edge into the ground and pressed it against her body.

Ye Ning let out a cry of surprise and clung tightly to the door frame.

The two were inexplicably startled, they never thought that there was such a horror hidden under this small inn!
While the two were struggling, they suddenly saw the unconscious merchant on the ground who had not yet been sent to the altar, and was instantly drawn into the air above the altar. His head and broken bones pierced into the unconscious merchant's body, and the blood followed. Flow out and make them connect with each other.These heads, arms, and legs were glued together indiscriminately, and the countless skeletons in the cellar also flew to the sky above the altar, surrounding it like a fortress!
What's even more frightening is that they seem to have turned into a cocoon of bones, gestating something.

"Ning Ning." Shen Xi's heart trembled slightly, and she quickly shouted, "Do you still have Jingji Pill?"

"Yes!" Ye Ning immediately threw a white pill bottle.

A huge thunderbolt exploded thereafter.

Boom boom boom!
The explosion triggered a terrifying air wave that swept out in all directions!Instantly blast those skeleton shells to pieces!

Shen Xi gritted her silver teeth tightly, and the edge of the cyan sword shone brightly with sword light, and the sword light was misty, turning into a cyan glow that enveloped her whole body.

Her whole body was like a cyan lightning, passing through the bone cocoon above the altar in an instant!

Boom!

A shrill scream sounded from the bone cocoon, and then it exploded!

Flesh and blood splattered, and a force of collapse surged out. Shen Xi, who was the first to bear the brunt, was immediately thrown out and hit the wall heavily.

She doesn't have much self-protection ability at this moment, she just feels like her bones have been knocked out of place.After spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood, he coughed lightly and fell to the ground.

Ye Ning was also thrown away by this huge force, and fell heavily on the entry ladder.

The two raised their heads with lingering fear, only to see that in the cellar, the altar was completely blown up, and the terrifying power disappeared, so they breathed a sigh of relief.

Shen Xi hurriedly took several recovery pills for herself, and sat on the ground to recover and rest.

I really didn't expect that a moment of carelessness would immediately put myself in danger!
But at this time, the power of the drug was dissipated in her body, and it was really hard for her to hold on.

She suddenly saw a figure flashing into the cellar in the darkness.

Shen Xi was taken aback, and hastily forced herself to get up.

"It's me!" Jiang Yang said hastily.

Standing in the cellar, Jiang Yang felt a large amount of Qi pouring into the energy of the scroll, enough to last at least two hundred days.

many!Jiang Yang was pleasantly surprised.

It's just a pity that the corpses here seem to have been blown to pieces.

Seeing Shen Xi's condition, Jiang Yang hurriedly stepped forward to check: "Is this heroine injured?"

Shen Xi shook her head, her face was as white as paper, at this moment her body was drugged, and she couldn't lift a trace of strength.

If it weren't for this, with her cultivation base of the second level of the eight sceneries, she only needs to activate the Blood Sea Yin God, and such injuries are really nothing.

"I don't know if there will be other dangers here." Jiang Yang took out a elixir bottle, "I have an antidote here. Although it was Song who managed to get it, it is important to detoxify now."

Jiang Yang poured out the elixir and handed it to Shen Xi.

Shen Xi sniffed it a little, and immediately smelled a strange fragrance, her pretty face was slightly startled: "Treasure detoxification pill?"

Shen Xi struggled to swallow it, her expression eased, and her complexion returned to a little rosy. She looked at Jiang Yang with a little gratitude: "Don't worry, Your Excellency, I will make up for you."
