List of strange talismans

Chapter 240 Underground World 4K
Falling is one of the oldest fears etched in human memory.

Losing the support of the earth, the body falls from a high place downwards. The moment it reaches the end, it is the end of life.

For land creatures without wings, falling to death is undoubtedly the most desperate way to die.Because in that case, he didn't even have any chance to save himself.

Unless, he has ascended as God.

Gu Xiuya couldn't remember the last time he fell from a height. He even forgot this feeling.

The growth in strength allows him to no longer be trapped in the dangers that humans need to be wary of, and he can still rise by the wind even if he falls into the abyss.

But now it's different.

He felt as if he had become a fish being swallowed by a whale.

The airflow drew a downward arc in front of his eyes, and the sand and gravel suddenly flew backwards. The invisible force plowed the soft soil into huge cracks visible to the naked eye, pulling on every muscle in his body and dragging him into the darkness.

The height suddenly dropped, and a hundred meters flew by in just an instant. Darkness as thick as substance slowly emerged, and even the huge beam of light that penetrated the sky and the earth was obscured.

His vision turned into darkness, and the howling wind in his ears reminded him that he was falling into the abyss.

Gu Xiuya tried to slow down his fall with the Light Body Technique, but the sudden suction force was too shocking. Even if he activated all his true energy, he could not offset the falling force at all.

As a last resort, he chose to invoke his divine power, trying to regain control of his body with the power of [wind].

However, what he didn't expect was that although the effect of the spell was approximately zero, it could at least be used.

As for divine power, it doesn't even have a manifestation.

The sea of ​​collective consciousness seemed to be down, completely ignoring the prayers of the God of Shuntian.

No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't summon the power that was his own.Not to mention driving authority.

Is it because of this darkness?

His nerves adapted to the changes in light and darkness, and Gu Xiuya's vision recovered somewhat. He found that there was darkness on all sides. He had never seen darkness actually have its own [form]. It was like a piece of wriggling clay. To be more precise, it should be It is a non-Newtonian liquid.

The creeping darkness enveloped his body, cutting off all power of consciousness, making him almost reduced to a mortal at this moment. He could only watch as he continued to fall, deeper and deeper.

For a moment, Gu Xiuya couldn't help but reach out and touch his chest.

But just when he was about to leave with the strange basket, his fall suddenly stopped.

Gu Xiuya felt that his palm touched something solid. After groping for a moment, he realized that he had actually reached the ground.

But the problem is that he obviously fell for such a long time. Logically speaking, even if he didn't fall half to death, he would still have to be hit hard to the ground. How could that happen?
is dark.

Gu Xiuya suddenly reacted.

The darkness neutralized the impact.Protected his body.

This discovery made Gu Xiuya calm down and gave up his plan to leave immediately.

——No matter what is driving the darkness, at least it does not show obvious malice for the time being.

Gu Xiuya decided to take another look at the situation. This was not only related to his promise to Misius, but he himself was also very curious about what the so-called [old days] looked like. It seemed that there were not many opportunities like this nowadays. If he missed it, he might be in danger. there is none left.

As he thought, he found that the creeping darkness gradually became stagnant.

A long and uneven crack suddenly opened in front of his eyes, and the black lines stretched to both sides, and then disappeared.

The darkness left him, and a dim light appeared in front of his eyes.

Gu Xiuya felt that the "isolation" was dissipating, and the inherent conscious connection between the gods and the sea of ​​group consciousness was beginning to recover, but compared to normal times in the past, this connection always felt uncomfortable and discontinuous.

It's like talking on the phone in the basement.

Is it because the distance is too far?Or was there some kind of interference?

Gu Xiuya didn't dwell on this. His attention was quickly attracted by the picture in front of him.

The rapid fall that lasted for half a minute brought him to the amazing underground world thousands of meters below.

This is a huge underground cave.

The strange limestone is covered with a shimmer like fireflies, but it is not a fluorescent plant like a star, but the residue of some kind of energy.

Like the scale powder left behind by moths.

Gu Xiuya didn't see any trace of life. There were no plants or animals in his sight, only gray rocks that stretched as far as the eye could see.

There is no trace of water or even water vapor in the extremely dry cave. The high temperature ripples behind the stone walls, and the air seems to be burning, bringing a scorching heat wave.

But even in such a place where it can be seen with the naked eye that there is no possibility of underground water, it shows cave characteristics that go against common sense.

There are hollows everywhere you look, and densely packed cave entrances are found in every direction of the huge cave. At first glance, it looks like cheese infested with moths.

Gu Xiuya reached out and touched a hollow beside him, feeling a strange rugged yet smooth touch on his fingers.

The reason for the ruggedness is that the cavity itself is irregular and full of protrusions, and the smoothness is because every protrusion has been corroded by some kind of liquid into a curved surface, and the smoothness is comparable to that of grinding with a grinding wheel.

This obviously cannot be caused by water erosion.

Gu Xiuya breathed subconsciously, and then he felt severe pain in his lungs. High-temperature air exceeding 70° was like a fatal poison to the alveoli. The moment it entered the body, it caused horrific burns and caused a convulsion in the trachea. Almost closed.

Gu Xiuya couldn't help but frown slightly.

The power of the foolish python made his external body no longer afraid of temperatures below a hundred degrees. This transformation allowed him to ignore the fragility of his cells.I was slightly injured accidentally.

At this moment, Gu Xiuya somewhat envied spiritual and intelligent gods like Hepheus. They were not bound by flesh and blood, and any harm at the material level was a passing thing to them.

Of course, there are advantages and disadvantages. Compared to living like a ghost, Gu Xiuya still prefers to feel down-to-earth.At least he can still feel the temperature, smell, and touch now. But Hephis, I'm afraid he doesn't even know what it feels like to eat.

Gu Xiuya's mind turned and he drove his body to repair the injury. He then manipulated his true energy to form a cloud around him, lowering the temperature to make breathing easier.

In fact, he does not have to use the respiratory tract for oxygen exchange.Since entering the late stage of pill formation, his integration with the foolish python has gone one step further.

Now, he only needs to cover the surface of the skin to complete oxygen exchange in the form of spore plants.

But Gu Xiuya didn't like this method very much, it made him feel like a vegetable.

Maintaining human [habits] is a necessary means for him to stabilize his [self], or to act as a [human being].

His unwillingness to give up the part of his thoughts and consciousness as a human being can, to a great extent, help him avoid becoming a vessel of divine power driven by divinity.

What's more, the situation is unclear at this moment, and it is at least better to show weakness to the enemy than to reveal your trump card.Gu Xiuya began to move forward along the road at his feet. There was a long and wide road in the center of the cave, on which traces of ups and downs like stairs could be vaguely seen, as if they were man-made steps.

Gu Xiuya initially thought that some kind of intelligent creature had dug this long road to guide people like him to a certain space.

But he quickly overturned this idea, because the undulations of the road were full of irregular height differences, which was completely inconsistent with human aesthetics. It was more like some kind of giant creature creeping past.Traces left inadvertently.

Gu Xiuya suddenly remembered the huge worm that almost swallowed Hepheus.

If you magnify it dozens of times, the folded ring-shaped body segments on its body seem to be just right in line with these marks.

At this moment, Gu Xiuya had a rough understanding of what he was about to meet, the old evil thing called the "Earth-Drilling Demonic Insect".

It's at least 50 meters tall, and that's just when it's lying on the ground.

Its body length even exceeds 1000 meters, because within 1000 meters, there are no obvious faults or overlaps in the road surface.

This shows that the Earth-Drilling Demonic Insect has covered this distance with just one squirm. From this, we can deduce how huge and long its body is.

It’s no wonder that gods such as Michus don’t even have the courage to face it.

Such a huge and majestic thing may be able to overpower a temple-level deity just by its physical strength.

the old days
This short and terrifying term echoed in Gu Xiuya's mind.

He looked around. There was no way out or the end of the dark cave. It was like the entrance to hell. Only the slightest sound of wind came from far away, like the howling of evil ghosts.

What kind of world could give birth to such a terrifying creature?

If the defeated are so powerful, how amazing and terrifying should the victors be?
Gu Xiuya suddenly felt that becoming a god was not a wise choice. If he had known that the enemies of the gods were so powerful, he would probably switch to the other side without hesitation.

It's a pity that he can't change the family now.

Now he can only hope that the deep space people are powerful enough to at least press this thing back into the seal. Otherwise, when he returns to the future, I am afraid that the cometary civilization will be killed before he can see it.

Thinking of this, Gu Xiuya made a decision.

He decided to expose Dusk.

The power of the old days was beyond his expectation. Once such a creature got out of trouble, it would be a disaster for civilization.

Without civilization, his industrial salvation plan becomes empty talk.

He couldn't expect a bug to help him resist the threat of a comet.

What's more, his land-based kingdom is right next to the mountains. Even if he doesn't consider the future and only thinks about his own interests, he can't let this thing come out.

The strength of a god is closely related to the number of believers. If the earth-boring demonic insects cause chaos in the White Star Kingdom, he may die on the spot.

My current strength is not enough, the safest way is to expose Dusk and cooperate with the gods to seal the past.

As for the future when I step into deep space and restart history, I can try to get in touch with it before it escapes.

In Gu Xiuya's view, it is impossible for such a powerful species to be formed naturally, because there were not many in the past, and no world could sustain the ravages of so many terrifying creatures at the same time.

The Earth-Drilling Demonic Insect must have evolved and improved in some way to reach where it is today.

This is undoubtedly a huge opportunity for Gu Xiuya.

He is now in an idealistic world where dreams can be turned into reality, and he firmly believes that he can turn anything false into true.

As long as he obtains the corresponding method and relies on the authority of the deep space level, it may not be impossible for him to imitate or even incarnate the past.

Thinking of this, Gu Xiuya was suddenly startled.

A thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

Dusk, do you also have this idea?
If the Old One has the upper hand, help the Old One out of trouble, in exchange for a way to become the Old One.

If Haoyue gains the upper hand, he will give up his plan and cooperate with Haoyue to devour the gods and enjoy the merit of following the dragon.

If both sides suffer losses and the group of gods has a chance to win, then honestly fight a wave of advantageous groups and solve two problems at the same time, and you can also gain countless benefits.

In short, one sentence - no matter what the outcome of this battle is, He will always be invincible!
The more Gu Xiuya thought about it, the more he thought it was possible.

No matter how stupid the thousand-year-old monster is, he can't be any stupider. Even if he can think of a plan, how could Dusk not think of it?
Since He called on the group of gods to seal the old days, he must have full confidence to protect his own interests.

Gu Xiuya knew that he could not delay it any longer. The longer he delayed, the better prepared he would be at dusk.

He must tell Michus all this immediately, otherwise, once Haoyue is defeated and the old victory begins to show, there will definitely be an uprising at dusk!

Thinking of this, Gu Xiuya stopped and prepared to carve the divine mark belonging to Michus on the spot.

Unexpectedly, it was at this time.

The moment his fingers touched the ground.

The calm cave suddenly shook, the solid stone walls shook violently, and the ground shook in an instant. Everything in sight was like rust on iron sheets, peeling off and falling to the ground.

Gu Xiuya staggered to his feet, surrounded by rocks and debris like rain, and dust mist rolling in the dry air, lifting up the old appearance, revealing the original appearance of things.

This is a cave!
This is clearly a palace!
Only then did Gu Xiuya realize that the boundless stone walls and caves he had seen before were just a speck of dust on the magnificent spectacle. The power of time had weathered everything, but now an earthquake had exposed it before his eyes.

This is a grand and majestic palace complex with no end in sight, densely packed with caves, and spreading endlessly.

Gu Xiuya has never seen a palace constructed in such a form. It completely violates human geometry and cannot be called beautiful. It is like a creation of a completely different civilization.

Countless worm statues of different sizes are piled up around the cave and hung upside down, forming a variety of strange buildings.Judging from human size, even the smallest building can house a giant.

Gu Xiuya didn't think that something that looked like a worm could be so carefree. In other words, the creature that created this palace must not be the old one itself.

A thought flashed through his mind.

——There is a certain group of people who worship giant worms. They follow in the footsteps of the past and create this amazing spectacle that goes against human aesthetics based on the traces it leaves behind when it travels across the earth.

But the question is: how did these people get in?
Didn't Michus say that the old days were sealed?
How did these intelligent creatures get into the seal that even the old days could not break?
What was the purpose of this group of people creating this spectacular building?
Just for self-appreciation?
Or do they want to use this to offer a gift to what they worship?

Gu Xiuya's expression suddenly changed when he thought of this.

The shock just now.
Rumble!
Suddenly, there was a violent vibration and explosion.

Gu Xiuya saw the cave wall melting like foam, and then, a shocking huge figure roared out and landed in front of him!
