Forbidden City

Chapter 678 Became a Monster
The grave guard said he let them go because of my face?
I said helplessly: "Your Excellency, if these three people were really my friends, I would have gone down to meet them a long time ago. The problem is, I don't know these three people at all."

"I know." The gravekeeper looked mysterious.

"You know?" I looked at the gravekeeper puzzled.

The grave guard said: "I know you don't know these three people. If you have friends with strong earth immortals, you don't have to come here alone, but you have to know that once the emperor's tomb is opened, strong people from the entire continent will follow one after another. Come here to find the treasure here, when the time comes, everyone will be in danger, including you will also be in deep danger."

"Even if you don't know these three people, they are not your enemies on the surface. Maybe they can help you. Otherwise, if you try to break into the emperor's tomb with your own strength, even with my help, you will die."

The gravekeeper let the three earth immortals go to help me?

Is it really that simple?In fact, I can't see through the gravekeeper at all.

Yu Wentian and the others led the strong men into the second door. Facing the nine doors, they directly entered the second door without thinking about it.

The gravekeeper watched everyone enter the second door and said to me, "You can go."

I tentatively asked, "Your Excellency, which door should I enter?"

The grave guard said: "You have my token in your hand, as long as you drop your blood essence into the token, the gate of life and the gate of death are the same, all species in the pyramid will not harm you, but you have to be careful Use it! Your task is to bring my token into the third floor and hand it over to the gravekeeper on the third floor. So, you can enter any door you want.”

With the token, all monsters can't hurt me?Not only was I not excited when I heard the words, but I felt a little uneasy, and said, "Your Excellency, I believe this token is a very important thing. Why did you entrust this task to me? Why don't you go to the third floor yourself?"

I always feel that it is not that simple for the gravekeeper to choose me to give tokens. Did he choose me because he saw my kindness?See me worshiping the idol and not killing the monsters here?It's not that simple.

The grave guard said: "Our grave guards on each floor cannot leave the place they are guarding, so they have to be done by others. As long as you help me complete the task, I will give you benefits when you come out."

Mohun said at this time: "Do whatever he asks you to do, don't ask so many questions."

The demon soul also became mysterious. I didn't ask any more questions. I suddenly thought of my senior sister and asked the tomb guard, "A month ago, was there a strong earth immortal here, a woman in her 20s?" .”

As I said that, I described my senior sister's appearance, and the grave guard said, "You want to find this woman?"

I said, "This woman is my senior sister, I must rescue her."

The gravekeeper thought for a while and said, "With this woman's ability, she can go to the sixth floor. If she is still alive, you can take her out."

The tomb guard not only met my senior sister, but must have fought with my senior sister. The grave guard spoke highly of my senior sister, and he was able to go to the sixth floor.

Then he bid farewell to the gravekeeper and walked towards the nine gates.

Although the tomb guard said that it doesn't matter which door I enter, I listened to the advice of the demon soul and entered the sixth door.

Just after entering the door, the demon soul said to me: "All go through the door of death, and within three days, you can reach the fourth floor."

three days?I was taken aback, "You mean, I don't encounter any danger, and I can go to the fourth floor in three days without stopping?"

The demon soul said: "The premise is that you don't encounter other enemies. You must know that having the token of the gravekeeper in your hand is not a good thing. When your blood essence drips into the token, the breath on your body and everything in the pyramid will be destroyed." There is no difference between monsters, and the shape will also change, I am afraid that everyone will not recognize you, if they meet humans, they will attack you, so you have to think carefully."

I was taken aback, the tomb guard didn't tell me this, how did the demon soul know?Does he recognize this token?Furthermore, why did the gravekeeper not tell me such important information?Are you trying to trick me?I remember the cemetery just said that it should be used with caution.

I asked Demon Soul, but he didn't explain the secret of the token, but said: "If you choose to go through the gate of death, just drop your blood essence into the token, and before you leave the pyramid, I'm afraid your aura won't disappear. There is no need to use tokens if you go through the door of life, but if you do this, it will take a long time, especially the phantom array above the fifth floor and some levels that are difficult for humans to pass will bring you a lot of trouble."

"Now, before the real strong of human beings reach the pyramid, go through the door of death as soon as possible, and leave immediately after taking the key of life and death. This is the best choice."

I hesitated, if I really use the token, then I will become the same monster as in the pyramid, what if no one can recognize me?But doing so is unintentionally the fastest way to go up the pyramid.

I asked: "I have been walking through the door of death, how soon can I find the key of life and death?"

The demon soul was silent for a while, and then said: "Twenty days at the fastest, one month at the slowest."

"What about the exit door?" I continued to ask.

The demon soul said: "This is uncertain. If you are lucky, you will go up in half a year. If you are unlucky, you may be trapped here for decades, because there are traps in the life gate above the fifth floor, and there are some The sleeping monster is inside."

I feel that I was tricked by the demon soul, "Didn't you say before that as long as I listen to your arrangement, it's okay to go to the tenth floor?"

Demon Soul said: "That's right, but I didn't tell you how long I used it... I used it for 170 years."

170 years?Isn't this cheating me?
If the demon soul is in front of me now, I will definitely slap him to death! 170 years?Can I stay here for 170 years?If nothing else, you'll starve to death! "

The demon soul seemed to feel my displeasure, and said: "For the real strong, more than 100 years is just a snap of the fingers, and you will understand when you live for a long time, just like the grave guards here. Existences that have lived for thousands of years, they can endure loneliness because they have a strong state of mind, and each retreat lasts for hundreds or thousands of years, which is very normal."

What the demon soul said is very reasonable. For people who have lived for ten thousand years, what is a hundred years?It's just one percent. I've lived for 28 years. One percent. How many days is that?
Behind the door is a spacious corridor. At the end of the corridor are three doors. According to the devil soul, the time also changes every hour.

Double point is life, single point is death, in fact, it doesn't matter how many gates, it is still judged and cyclically transformed according to single and double points.

However, for those who don’t know the law of the transformation of life and death gates here, three gates are much more difficult than two gates. According to Mohun, there are four gates in each tomb on the fourth floor, and five gates on the fifth floor. Doors... and so on, the ninth floor has nine doors.

In fact, it is a simple law, as long as someone comes to investigate carefully, you can find the law, but there is an extra door on each floor, plus the terrifying monsters in the door of life and death, and the devil soul said that the door of life above the fifth floor There are also traps, that is, even if anyone comes, they will not be able to judge the law of the transformation of the gate of birth and death.

I still go directly to the door of death according to the devil soul. I have to hurry up and find the key of life and death. I can't stay here for many years, and it's impossible to stay here for decades with my cultivation base, even if I don't starve to death. , will die of old age.

Even if you don't use a token to walk through the door of death, there is not much danger, but there are many rules, worshiping gods, offering sacrifices, and cleaning up some scenes. In short, there are many things that will delay my steps.

So, I took out the token of the grave guard and inspected it carefully. I released my breath to detect the token, but no matter how I detected it, I felt that the token in my hand was just an ordinary token, without any special features. I just don't know what material it is made of.

I forced out a drop of blood essence, and after the blood entered the token, a thick black mist suddenly erupted from the entire token, and the black mist began to wrap around me, and then seeped into it from the surface of my skin.

I turned pale with fright, and tried to force the black mist out of my body in a hurry. In your body, after you get out of the pyramid, everything will dissipate."

I really can't feel the black mist's harm to me. After the power of the black mist enters my body, it just attaches to the surface of the major organs and tissues in my body, and it seems to only slightly reduce the activity of the cells.

About 1 minute later, everyone's black mist melted into my body. I saw that the skin on my hands was extremely pale, without a trace of blood, and the breath in my whole body was like a dead body. There was no breath of a living person, and I couldn't feel it. any vitality.

Mohun said before that after using the token, I will become a monster, but what kind of form am I now?

I immediately took out my phone and turned on the camera. In the selfie mode, I saw myself in the camera, and I was shocked.

My hair has grown a bit longer, it is dark blue, my skin is terribly pale, my eyeballs are light red, and even my facial features have become very thin, as if I were malnourished. My eyes, mouth, and nose have all shrunk, which is even more terrifying. What's more, the ears grow longer, and gradually, they look like rabbit ears.

"Damn!" I couldn't help shouting out, but this roar was not my voice!

My body, inside and out, is no longer me!I don't even know myself anymore!
I really didn't expect such a big change, a complete earth-shaking change!

If I meet humans now, I will definitely be attacked by humans!

The demon soul said: "You don't have to worry, this is a pyramid, and all the powers in the pyramid can be said to be your companions. Are you still afraid that humans will fail? Let's go."

Hearing what Mohun said, I didn't have much worry in my heart. Besides, there are so many masters in Maishen Ring, who should I be afraid of?

"What kind of monster have I become?" I asked Demon Soul.

The demon soul explained: "Your current appearance is a kind of western creature 'elf' from the previous civilization. It is a mummy transformed into a half-human, half-corpse state after the death of an elf."

Elf?I suddenly remembered some American dramas, in which there are creatures like elves. Elves are the kindest and most perfect species among all things in the world. They have handsome appearances and long lives, but kindness has become their fatal weakness. Eventually lead to the extinction of the entire race.

I went directly into the door of death, and just after I entered, a cold breath came oncoming. If I felt this kind of breath before, I would be very uncomfortable, but now my physique and breath have changed, and I feel gloomy. Horror atmosphere, no tension at all, even some excitement.

I felt pairs of eyes staring at me in the darkness all around. This was a natural induction, but soon, these evil and murderous eyes gradually receded.
