The longevity of the heavens begins with Mingyu Gong

Chapter 507 Stone Beast Letter
Song Xing came to Shennongjia on this trip, just for the ancient gods hidden behind the history of mankind. Seeing that the target may be in front of him, he will not shrink back.

As for Professor Sun and the others, if they were separated from Song Xing's protection, not to mention the terrifying ancient creatures along the way, even if they could return to the surface and face the pursuit of the green tomb, it would be hard to say that they would return to Kyoto alive.

Everyone climbed along the roots of the tree, and the cave at their feet was originally a cave in the mountain, with a diameter of more than [-] meters, and the trend was steep and almost vertical.

The interior is densely covered with holes, which looks like the outer wall of the ancient Roman Colosseum. The roots of those prehistoric trees are extremely thick and long, and the thinnest ones are like pillars. It is no wonder that Professor Sun thinks that this prehistoric tree is a legend built wood.

Numerous tree roots stretched and attached to the crevices of the rock, and they had long been integrated with the cave wall, and the wisteria fungus wrapped around it was even more like a net.

Because he didn't know what was in the cave, Song Xing had long summoned the five ghosts to explore the way ahead, while the Nine Dead Shocking Lingjia slid along the rock wall, took care of it in the middle, and shredded the vines blocking the way along the way.

The vines were swept away, revealing some murals that were originally hidden behind the roots and painted on the cliffs.

It is hard to imagine how the ancients painted on this almost vertical mountain wall. Song Xing raised his eyes and saw that after thousands of years, the ancient and colorful murals are still vaguely discernible.

It can be clearly seen that one of the murals depicts the scene of evil spirits grabbing and eating people in the thick fog. The upper body of the victim is still flesh and blood, and the lower body has been eaten into white bones. The murals are colorful and lifelike.

Professor Sun chiseled off a corner of the murals, and based on the degree of damage to the paint, he judged that these murals were formed during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, guessing that they were written by King Chu You.

These murals from the Warring States Period contain a lot of valuable information, but the contents are horrific and cruel, bloody and chilling to the spine.

When Song Xing glanced at the murals, he saw another mural on which was painted a large box with the lid half-opened, revealing a skeleton. The box was surrounded by crouching dragons with open mouths and teeth.

Beside the box is a human figure, dressed in a python robe and jade belt, with a phoenix-patterned canopy behind him, looking like a king. There is another person standing opposite, wearing a three-eyed mask. The two seem to be whispering secret words to the big skeleton in the box.

Song Xing suddenly realized that this should be the scene where King Chu You got the golden skeleton back then, and then he was afraid of the evil ghost asking for his life and asked Yu Wu.

In ancient times, it was believed that there were springs underground, that is, groundwater distributed layer by layer, and the deepest part had to pass through Jiudao Spring.

Qin Shihuang's mausoleum was built very deep. According to historical records, it was "passed through three springs and placed in the coffin", which means that the place where the coffin was placed was so deep that three layers of groundwater had been dug through.

King Chuyou was afraid that the evil spirit would take his life, so he ordered the big witch to take the golden skeleton to the underground Abyss of Nine Layers to suppress the evil spirit, but the big witch never returned.

"It seems that the golden skeleton is really down there. So, the countless treasures of King Chu You back then must be underground too." Fatty Wang said with some joy.

Hu Bayi disagreed: "It's been so many years, who knows what's going to happen next, I advise you not to be too optimistic."

While the two were arguing, the five ghosts had reached the ground first. This seemingly bottomless abyss was only a hundred meters away from the entrance of the cave, and the bottom of the cave was a low-lying depression.

In the low-lying area, there is stagnant water seeping from a high place. In the water, there is a golden pot with animal ears reclining. It is huge in shape and covered with copper corrosion and green moss on the surface.

On the nearby thick and thick tree roots, there are countless statues, swords and spears, as well as bronze heavy objects in the shape of birds, beasts and dragons, all of which seem to be ancient relics from the Warring States Period.

This made Song Xing a little disappointed. The terrain here looks like a sacrificial pit. Although the scale is ridiculously large, it is far from what he imagined.

With Nine Deaths Shocking Mausoleum Jia clearing the way, Professor Sun and others quickly climbed down, and they were also surprised to see the sacrificial pit below.

Fatty Wang was even more excited to find some small and valuable items and stuff them into his backpack.

But Hu Bayi looked at Professor Sun strangely: "Didn't it mean that the bottom of Jianmu and the abyss have no way?"

Professor Sun was also a little disappointed. He didn't care about the heavy weapons of the Warring States period under his nose. He looked around and said, "Maybe there are other passages that are covered up. Look around and find out the terrain here first."

Hu Bayi walked a few steps along the pothole, and saw several strangely shaped cylindrical objects protruding from the water in front of him, resembling the claws of a statue of a giant beast, half submerged. Suddenly several strange fishes shaped like heads, without scales and with two pairs of fins behind their gills sprang out and bit him.

In a blink of an eye, Hu Bayi already recognized that these fish were very similar to some kind of strange fish in the mountain and sea map on the rubbings in Professor Sun's hand, with double fins like wings, ferocious and bloodthirsty.

Then under the water surface, as if boiling, countless strange fish appeared in an instant, jumped out of the water crazily, and rushed towards Hu Bayi and the few people behind him.

Before Hu Bayi could dodge, countless bronze blood erosions sprang out from behind, piercing through the bodies of all the strange fish within a millimetre.

But it was the Nine Deaths Shocking Ling Jia next to Song Xing who showed his power!
Facing this man-made monster, these prehistoric strange fish hidden in the water had no chance to resist at all, and they all died in an instant, and their flesh and blood were sucked dry.

Hu Bayi took a few quick breaths. After many years of fighting and facing countless life and death crises, he quickly calmed down.

Song Xing still had the nine-death Jingling Jia to hunt and kill those strange fish, but he came to the water's edge and set his sights on the stone pillar Hu Bayi found.

Between the stone pillars is a six to seven-meter-high green mottled tree-shaped utensil. On each branch, a large bronze vessel is held.

From his point of view, those rock pillars were indeed the claws of some kind of stone beast lifted up. The six or seven-meter-high tree-shaped copper lamp was just something in his palm, which was enough to imagine the huge size of the stone beast.

The side of the giant beast's body is blocked by a rock wall. If you look closely, it is a rectangular stone box engraved with ghost patterns, pressing on the stone beast holding a tree-shaped copper lamp like a mountain.

He suddenly remembered the murals he had seen in the cave before. In those ancient murals left over 2000 years ago, there appeared a strange beast with a body like a turtle dragon, with a head but no face, holding a lamp in the chaos, with his back on his back. There is a roulette-shaped utensil pressed on it, which is similar to the "Bi Xi" on the negative stele, and it is no different from the strange beast under the stone box.

Professor Sun knocked on the stone letter and said: "In ancient times, there was a saying of 'Han Zai', the monster crawling in the chaos is called 'Zai', carrying all things on its back, running through the ages, the box on it is a 'Han', it seems The road to the lower level lies on its back."

The stone wall was huge, and everyone groped along the stone wall, and finally found a depression in a corner. The outside was a raised animal face relief, and the mouth was a terrifyingly large hole, directly passing through the thick wall.

Song Xing let the five ghosts walk in front, and then followed into the cave. Professor Sun and the others also got in, and Nine Dead Shocking Ling Jia shrank his body, and finally followed in.
