From the cracks in the cave wall, more than a dozen equally ferocious scorpions emerged and rushed towards Lin Qiye!
Lin Qiye struggled to hold on, blood already visible in his mouth.
At this time, the others also reacted and joined the battle, bravely fighting the scorpions!
The old man shouted loudly and took out an ancient copper mace, which smashed into the scorpion group like a meteorite from outer space.
There was only a series of "crunching" sounds, and countless scorpions were smashed into pulp, with corpses scattered all over the ground!
“Great!” Lin Qiye was overjoyed when he saw this, and he struck while the iron was hot, launching another round of violent killing.
In a short while, all the ice scorpions were killed, and black, smelly blood plasma spread all over the ground.
At this time, the barrage in the live broadcast room had already exploded.
"Fuck! This scorpion is so freaking cruel! It can kill someone with just one bite!"
"That's right! This is simply the T-virus of the bug world!"
"I'm not exaggerating. If it weren't for the great god Lin Qiye, the whole army would have been wiped out by now."
"That's right, the sword skills are sharp and lightning fast, just as cool as in the movies!"
"That old senior is also awesome. He smashed the scorpion into dust with one blow of his bronze mace!"
"I think those scorpions are probably the guardian beasts raised by the tomb owner to suppress intruders."
"Shit! If this were in a game, what a high level dungeon would it be?"
"That is to say, if you keep killing your way through like this, I don't think you'll be able to pass the level without dying dozens of times."
A few complainers livened up the atmosphere with their wits.
Although this battle was thrilling, it also demonstrated the bravery of the expedition team.
With Lin Qiye, an expert, and the assistance of the mysterious old man, it seems that no matter how dangerous the situation is, nothing can stop them!
However, after calming down and thinking carefully, many fans raised new questions.
"These guardian beasts are so difficult to deal with, does that mean there are even more terrifying bosses waiting behind?"
"That's right. There might be some ancient evil gods or cursed ghosts."
"Stop talking nonsense! Let's just trust Lin Qiye and his team. They will definitely be able to overcome all obstacles and solve the mystery."
"That's right, as loyal fans, we should give them the strongest support and cheer for them!"
"Come on! Don't give up! No matter how dangerous it is, we will keep chasing!"
Deep in the tomb passage, the air was filled with miasma.
The group was trembling with fear, as if they were treading on thin ice.
The scorpion attack just now had made everyone nervous.
I was afraid that some evil spirits would emerge from those hideous cracks at any time.
Lin Qiye stopped, looked around, and became alert.
The appearance of that group of ice scorpions just now was clearly some kind of warning.
It seems that we are not far from our destination.
"Be careful!" the old man suddenly shouted.
Countless plumes of green smoke were seen rising from the stone walls on both sides.
In the smoke, there were vague shadows moving around, as if ghosts of the dead were looking around.
Lin Qiye's pupils shrank, and he raised his hand and a golden light flew out.
The light cut through the fog and dispersed all those figures!
When the smoke cleared, what came into view were lifelike murals!
On the walls, there are numerous buildings depicted, magnificent and majestic.
And in the center of the picture, a palace towering into the clouds is particularly eye-catching.
At the same time, stone statues of various shapes are lined up on both sides.
"Is this the full view of Yueying Ancient Capital?" Cheng Long exclaimed.
The old man nodded slowly, as if he was lost in distant memories:
"Yes. Those palaces were where our ancestors lived. And those stone statues are sculptures of the clan leaders of past generations." "But now things are different and the former glory has also gone with the wind."
The words were full of desolation and sadness.
Lin Qiye felt a pain in his heart when he heard this.
"Senior, please forgive me for being so presumptuous. If we can find the whereabouts of the demon-refining cauldron, we can get rid of it as soon as possible. Isn't that exactly what our ancestors wished for? Why are you lingering here and feeling sad?"
The old man was stunned at first, then he suddenly realized and his eyes brightened a lot.
"My friend, you are right. I was so sad that I almost missed something important."
"Well, God has his own plans. Now that the Moon Shadow Ruins have reappeared in the world, perhaps this is an opportunity. Let's seize the moment and get straight to the point!"
After saying that, he waved his sleeves and led the way forward.
At this moment, the live broadcast room also exploded.
"Fuck! Am I seeing this right? Is this a panoramic view of Yueying Ancient Capital on the wall?"
"Amazing! This mural is so beautiful, it's like the Google Maps of ancient times!"
"That's right. Looking at the scale of this layout, how powerful was the Moon Shadow Clan back then? This is truly a super empire!"
"That is to say, with both wealth and power, no wonder the gods and demons covet Yueying. They must have wanted to annex her for a long time."
"I feel so bad for Yueying. He was once a local overlord, but was plotted against by a demon. This is the greatest darkness in Chinese history!"
"What kind of thing is this? Isn't this a naked monopoly? This evil spirit is too lawless!"
"That's right! I don't think this matter is over. Although Yueying is dead, the remaining evil has not been eliminated. Who knows when they will fight to the death with the gods and demons again!"
"Okay, stop talking nonsense. Let's just watch how Lin Qiye and the others perform. Judging from the situation, the highlight is about to begin!"
Fans are talking about it and are looking forward to the follow-up developments.
But Lin Qiye fell into deep thought at this moment.
The murals before brought him more than just emotion.
He always felt that there must be something else behind it.
Perhaps this is the key to the final secret!
Just as he was thinking, the road ahead suddenly opened up.
With the help of the lamp in the old man's hand, one can vaguely see that there is a huge circular stone chamber in front.
"This is it. The tomb of Yueying's ancestors is just around the corner!"
The old man's voice trembled slightly, full of excitement.
But the next moment, his face suddenly changed and he shouted: "Oh no, there's something strange!"
I saw a black shadow passing by, as fast as lightning, and disappeared into the stone chamber silently!
Lin Qiye frowned, immediately drew out his long sword, and prepared to meet the enemy.
At the same time, a faint sound came from the stone chamber, as if it was the sound of gears meshing.
And what followed was a disgusting stench.
"Be careful! There's a trap!"
Cheng Long's face turned pale, and he felt that the ground beneath his feet seemed to be shaking slightly.
As expected, the next moment, the entire stone chamber collapsed, and countless rocks and sand poured down from the top of the cave, carrying a pungent cloud of dust in the air!
“Get out of the way!”
Lin Qiye acted decisively, leaped forward, and pulled Yang Mi beside him, narrowly avoiding the fatal blow.
For a moment, dust flew and sand and gravel splashed everywhere.
Several people rolled over to the side in a panic, coughing continuously. (End of this chapter)
