- #160 - Chapter 160: A Mountain of Corpses and a Sea of Blood
It was neither grand nor mysterious.
The place where the disaster was hidden before Yu Ke was just a stone chamber of about 80 square meters.
The Disaster Prevention Bureau had obviously conducted a detailed investigation of this place.
Various strange instruments were distributed throughout the stone chamber, illuminating every corner.
The most eye-catching ones were the bronze statues in the center of the entire stone chamber.
They were arranged in four directions, with their backs to a platform of half a meter square, and their postures were also different.
The one on the east side is a middle-aged Taoist priest with a long sword, handsome face, beautiful beard, and a wine gourd hanging from his waist; the one on the west side is a burly warrior holding two huge hammers, wearing heavy armor and a ferocious ghost mask; the one on the south side is a graceful fairy, with flowing sleeves, holding a lotus in her left hand and a water bottle in front of her chest with her right hand; the bronze statue in the north is the most peculiar, looking like an ordinary fisherman, but the green bamboo fishing rod on his shoulder is particularly peculiar, with a few green leaves still preserved on the tip.
“These four bronze statues should represent the strong men who once suppressed the disaster. They left their statues here and injected some of their power into them as the core of the formation to seal the disaster hidden here.” Fang Xuanhe has been here for a long time and knows the situation in the ruins very well. He pointed to the ground and said, “This is the source of the entire seal formation of the ruins. What we are doing now is to repair the damaged seal formation so that it can be restored to its original state, even if it is only partially repaired. We are making arrangements on the periphery to prepare for the worst situation, and this takes time.” “I only see the seal formation and the core of the formation. What about the sealed disaster? Is it also under our feet?” Yu Ke walked into the stone chamber, looking at the bronze statue while looking around, and did not find any other special existence in his perception. “It’s in this stone chamber, everywhere!” “What, right next to us?” An Saili, who was walking at the end, heard this and stopped immediately, subconsciously posing a defensive posture. Yu Ke was calm, but turned to look at Fang Xuanhe, waiting for his explanation.
Since the Taoists in the corridor and the camp outside were still operating as usual, it meant that the situation in the ruins was still under control.
“If you want to see the whole picture here, your spirit may be shocked. Miss An, please retreat to the corridor first and come in later.”
With his hands in front of his chest, Fang Xuanhe first asked An Saili to leave the stone room, and then signaled Yu Ke to come forward.
Although he wanted to know what the disaster was, An Saili also knew that Fang Xuanhe’s reminder was not false, so he turned around and left decisively, while Yu Ke walked in front of Fang Xuanhe and asked Sen Ling to help look after him in his mind.
After all, it was the first time they met, so they had to be on guard.
“Keep your mind focused, don’t be affected by them. If you feel you can’t bear it, speak up at any time.”
Fang Xuanhe finished chanting the spell with his right hand pointing at Yu Ke’s brow, and shouted in a deep voice,
“All spirits support the law, and the dark will be restored to light!”
The moment the voice fell, Yu Ke felt a cool air flow into his eyes and ears, and after a brief noise interference, when he opened his eyes again, everything in front of him had changed dramatically.
The scarlet blood light covered the entire scene in his vision. The ancient walls and floor tiles that he saw when he came in before, their surfaces had become a sea of blood and corpses without knowing when!
At this moment, Yu Ke seemed to be surrounded by a sea of blood, surrounded by churning blood waves and ruins of collapsed towns. They were very small in scale, and the three-story houses were only slightly higher than the edge of his shoes.
But it was such a tiny house that covered the stone room everywhere, and it became a miniature of a huge town.
Roars, screams, and the howling of the people at dawn filled the ears, and the blood waves drowned thousands of innocent people, forming a miserable scene that made people’s scalps numb.
Yu Ke bent down to take a closer look, and then he found that the blood waves were full of huge and terrifying beasts. They looked like a collection of skinned deer and hyenas, riding the blood waves and devouring the victims crazily.
Moving his sight upwards, from the floor of the stone room to the four walls, Yu Ke saw another extreme scene.
Horrifying pictures flooded into Yu Ke’s mind, impacting his psychological defenses.
Fortunately, with the protection of the [Spiritual Awakening] trait, his mental state was still normal, and there were no obvious negative effects.
Just at this time, the effect of Fang Xuanhe’s magic gradually faded, and the environment in his field of vision gradually returned to the state when he just came in.
The scene he just saw was still echoing in his mind. Yu Ke let out a long sigh and finally understood why Fang Xuanhe did not return to help when Jinghang City was attacked so severely.
If this sea of blood really rises in Jinghang City, the casualties will not be comparable to the attack on the Heisen Building. Tens of thousands, no, hundreds of thousands! The entire city may collapse! “The sea of blood and corpses you see is the disaster sealed in this relic. What you saw before is just a thousand times smaller. Once the seal is broken, they will sweep away everything around them. I’m afraid no one in the entire Jinghang area will be spared.” In the seemingly small stone chamber, a disaster that is enough to subvert the entire city is sealed. Fang Xuanhe restored everything to its original state to prevent other people from being affected, and then said,
“I used magic to barely stabilize the formation here. Otherwise, ordinary people would be affected even if they were just close. After all, this is just a stopgap measure. The disintegration of the sealing formation is still continuing. If the problem cannot be solved fundamentally, It is only a matter of time before the mountains of corpses and seas of blood reappear in the Beijing-Hangzhou area. I brought you here this time in the hope that your friends can provide some new ideas.”
The slow disintegration of the sealing formation is the limit that Fang Xuanhe can achieve.
He didn’t expect Yu Ke to solve the problem, he just wanted to try to see if he could get some new progress.
Yu Ke didn’t know anything about the sealing formation, so he still had to rely on the forest spirit, and the latter didn’t talk nonsense. Fluorescent green light points flew out from the mark and penetrated into the stone chamber to explore the situation in this area.
“It might take some time.”
After all, this is not the Mirror Lake Forest. The body of the forest spirit is still in the temple and underground palace. It is unrealistic to quickly figure out the situation here with just part of the will.
“Don’t worry, nothing will happen for a while. Just sit down. There are chairs over here.”
Fang Xuanhe waved to Anseli, who had reentered the stone room, and motioned for her to find a chair and sit down as well.
The forest spirit was still exploring the ruins, and the three of them were chatting with each other. Yu Ke took this opportunity to mention that he was going to Shanqing City to condense his mind in two days, and wanted to hear Fang Xuanhe’s opinion.
Anyway, Fang Xuanhe could guess the existence of the forest spirit. There was no point in hiding it or not. He would always find out when they met next time. It was better to ask for advice first, maybe he could get some advice.
“It is interesting to use the Mirror of Imagination to choose dragon as the mind image to visualize. It is really interesting. For other people, this behavior is tantamount to seeking death. The power of dragons is unpredictable. Even if it is an illusion, it is enough to destroy the minds of mortals. And yours My body is very special, so I might give it a try, and there might be some additional benefits.”
After listening to Yu Ke’s thoughts, Fang Xuanhe stared at him for a long time, then suddenly clapped his hands and laughed,
“I really didn’t expect that after so many years, I would still see a young man with such extraordinary talent like you. Don’t worry, imagine, there will be surprises waiting for you, but you must pay attention to proceeding step by step. There is a limit to the endurance of the soul. Please be informed. Speed makes waste.”
The “special” mentioned by Fang Xuanhe obviously refers to the dragon’s blood in Yu Ke’s body, but because Anseli was nearby, he thought it was Yu Ke’s secret, so he didn’t clarify it directly.
“Thank you, senior, for your guidance.”
“Haha, what kind of advice is this? You will know things sooner or later. By the way, while I am free now, I will give you the meeting gift I promised you earlier. Give me your right hand, palm facing up. I will think of what gift is suitable for you. ”
Yu Ke didn’t understand what Fang Xuanhe meant, but he still stretched out his hand.
Anseli next to him picked up his chair and moved two steps forward. He watched Fang Xuanhe take Yu Ke’s wrist, paused for two seconds as if taking a pulse, and moved his right index finger on the latter’s palm one after another, and a ray of light came from him. It burst out between the skin and flesh, then faded away after a few seconds.
“What are you”
Feeling the energy accumulated in his palm, Yu Ke asked in surprise.
“Aren’t you going to Shanqing City? Some time ago, my friend there told me that some supernatural events occurred in Shanqing City, and there were many gloomy ghosts wandering around at night. Since you are going there this time, if you encounter these Shit, it helps.”
After the sealing on the talisman was completed, Fang Xuanhe began to explain,
“This mark contains a huge amount of natural energy. I will leave a talisman in your palm to help you transform this energy into an offensive spell, which can activate the spiritual power of heaven and earth. It is my improved Thunder Technique. It can only be used three times. , the power depends on the natural energy you consume, and it has miraculous effects on evil and evil creatures.”
As the guard of Beijing-Hangzhou City, Fang Xuanhe can still obtain information from other areas at any time through the Disaster Prevention Bureau, even if he has stayed here and the ruins have not left recently.
To be precise, the Disaster Prevention Bureau will report to him regularly. For example, major events in Shanqing City require him to be consulted frequently.
“Does this talisman have a name?”
Yu Ke looked at the talisman hidden in the flesh and asked.
“Call it ‘Jingzhe’!”
This trip was originally just for wandering around, but I didn’t expect that I would get something unexpected.
Yu Ke had always used the energy in the forest mark to recover from injuries, and never thought that they could be converted into offensive spells.
You must know that this is the talisman left specially by Fang Xuanhe, and its power is absolutely guaranteed.
Just as Yu Ke was feeling the Jingzhe Talisman with satisfaction, the forest spirits responsible for the investigation began to respond one after another.
“What is missing here is the formation eye that can truly suppress disasters!”
Yu Ke told Fang Xuanhe about the discovery of the forest spirit. When the latter heard this, he stood up suddenly and grabbed Yu Ke’s shoulders with excitement.
