In Zhu Xian, people start to rise from plundering entries

He suppressed his nausea and paddled towards the center of the lake, only to find that the water became thicker as he went deeper.

The luminous cells are like countless tiny fireflies, lighting up the underwater world like a nightmare.

Biyao suddenly struggled violently. Su Han turned around and saw that her ankles were entangled by tentacles, and the suction cups were greedily sucking her blood.

He swung his knife at the tentacles, but found that the blade was bounced off by some tough membrane.

The shadows of the monsters hovered above the water, their dark green compound eyes like peeping demons, while the outlines of giant creatures were looming at the bottom of the lake, slowly approaching them.

Su Han held Bi Yao in his arms, and his back suddenly hit something hard.

He looked down and found that it was the bottom of the "island" of bones. The bones were glowing an eerie white light underwater, and the skeletons at the bottom were wrapped with rusty chains.

Biyao suddenly grabbed his arm and pointed to the depths of the pile of bones.

There was a pitch-black cave entrance there, with a faint blue light shining from the depths of the cave. Some strange runes could be vaguely seen flowing on the stone wall.

The cries of the monsters suddenly became sharp. Su Han felt a huge water pressure above his head. The giant creatures were diving.

He held Biyao's hand tightly and swam towards the cave entrance, but when he was about to touch the edge of the cave, he was bounced back by an invisible force.

Bi Yao coughed up a mouthful of blood and said weakly, "Rune. There are restrictions."

The shadow of the giant creature loomed over, and Su Han looked at the runes flowing at the entrance of the cave, and suddenly remembered the strange behavior of the monsters imitating fire.

He gritted his teeth, took out the last fire starter from his arms, and at the moment when he was about to be swallowed by the giant creature, he flicked the spark towards the rune.

The dark blue light suddenly surged, and the runes twisted as if they were alive. The restrictions at the entrance of the cave shattered, and Su Han and Bi Yao were suddenly pulled into the darkness by a suction force.

The water in the passage was flowing rapidly, and the two of them kept colliding in the darkness. Su Han protected Bi Yao's head tightly until his body was suddenly suspended in the air and fell heavily on a patch of wet sand.

The crackling sound of the torch was particularly clear in the darkness. Biyao trembled as she lit the torch. In the dim light, they saw a narrow stone path in front of them. The stone walls on both sides were engraved with twisted patterns - those patterns depicted some kind of sacrificial ceremony, with humans being sacrificed kneeling by the lake, and giant creatures opening their bloody mouths to swallow the flames into their stomachs.

There was a sound of dripping water at the end of the stone path. Su Han clenched the dagger, looked at Bi Yao, and slowly walked towards the unknown.

They didn't know whether there was a way to survive or death ahead. They only knew that the cries of the monsters were still echoing in the distance, and deep in the cave, there seemed to be a secret hidden that was more terrifying than the danger in front of them.

The air on the stone path became increasingly humid. Biyao's torch began to crackle, the flame flickering under the pressure of the water vapor.

Su Han suddenly reached out to stop her, squatted down and looked at the ground carefully——

There was a series of strange footprints on the sand. There were traces of mucus on the edges of the footprints, but they did not look like they were left by a group of monsters.

The footprints meandered deep into the stone path, and at the end of the torchlight, a faint green reflection could be seen.

"It's human."

Su Han said in a low voice, his fingertips picking up the slime on the sand, "But it was infected by the monster."

Biyao's face turned pale instantly and she clenched the torch in her hand.

The two followed the footprints, and the stone path gradually widened, and more runes appeared on the rock walls on both sides.

This time the runes no longer flowed, but instead glowed with a dark red rust color, as if they were soaked in blood.

Suddenly, the sound of dragging chains was heard from the front.

Su Han suddenly pulled Bi Yao behind him, and the dagger flashed coldly out of its sheath. (End of this chapter)
