Chapter 141: A Perilous Situation! (Three Updates for Flowers)
Just as Wu Zhengyi arrived at the gate and was about to unfold his spiritual consciousness to probe inside, suddenly, a rumbling sound like thunder began to emerge from afar.
Upon hearing this voice, Wu Zhengyi was initially stunned, then his face changed drastically. "I'm f**ked! Something related to water is really a flood!!!"
As he thought of this, Wu Zhengyi immediately retreated to the main gate and hid by the wall on the left. At that moment, a torrential flood burst out of the gate with a deafening roar, as if it was going to shake the entire mountain down. The flood hit the floor outside the door, triggering the mechanism instantly.
In an instant, a burst of explosions sounded, and countless arrows shot out irregularly from the walls around him, covering all positions in the entire space. The arrows that hit hard objects were retracted and then shot out again, circulating endlessly. Even Wu Zhengxie, who was on the wall, suffered more than ten sharp arrow shots.
Fortunately, he had already activated the Lin Zi Jue of the Nine-Character True Words, making his defense invincible. However, being hit by over a dozen sharp arrows still made him feel waves of heartache.
Because of Lin's encounter with a strong opponent, his consumption was even greater. A dozen or so sharp arrows weren't many, but they had actually consumed three drops of his Yuan force!!!
He didn't dare to think too much, at this moment he used his hand as a knife and suddenly slashed down. At that instant, the dozen or so arrows that were about to be withdrawn were suddenly cut off by Wu Zhengye's knife aura, severing the silk threads behind them.
At this time, he was fortunate that the walls on both sides had just walked, and if they were in the middle zone, the loss of yuan would not be as simple as three drops now.
This is not, the arrow of benefit shoots wildly at the same time, 365 ground thorns on the ground shoot out simultaneously, then shrink back, and then shoot out again in an endless cycle. Even a large elephant would be instantly pierced like a sieve if it were among them.
"My grass! This mechanism is too damn poisonous!" Before he could catch his breath, the stone wall in the sky suddenly appeared with countless holes, and a thick, silvery white ** continuously flowed down, falling into the water that had already risen to half a person's height on the ground and merging into the water. Seeing this scene, Wu Zhengxie's pupils suddenly contracted sharply.
"Heavenly Robe is seamless! Heavenly Robe is seamless!" Wu Zhengye exclaimed, and he didn't dare to linger here any longer. Because in "Yong Meng Zha Ji", he had learned about some of the mechanisms of ancient tombs, such as that silvery white thing falling from the sky, which was mercury, also known as 'quicksilver'.
This thing is toxic, dissolving in water makes the water toxic too. Wu Zhengyi can't even isolate foreign objects for an extended period of time, and even if he could, the cost would be too high.
He rushed towards the stone gate where the flood was surging without hesitation.
But looking at the state of the stone gate, Wu Zhengyi's face changed greatly, "I'm going to be trapped here to death?"
At this time, the stone gate was rapidly closing, and due to the impact of the water flow, its closing speed was even faster.
Wu Zhengyi was really anxious about this.
No time to think of anything else, that guy instantly triggered the first six words of the nine-character mantra, and the brow's fate force was being consumed like it didn't cost a dime. But at this moment, Wu Zhengxie simply couldn't afford to worry about his fate force. He didn't want to be trapped here, nor did he dare to be trapped here, because he knew that being trapped here would only have one outcome - death!
He leaned his body sideways to reduce the pressure of the water flow, and the character "临" (lín) was used to describe how he isolated the floodwaters outside his body.
The soldier swiftly increased his agility speed, sticking closely to the left side of the large gate that was just closing, crawling step by step inside.
The Douzi Jue increased his strength, allowing him to avoid being washed away by the torrent and thrown into the rear where the mechanisms were heavy, because once he was washed away, it would be really difficult to survive.
He uses his fingers to control the force of the water flow, trying to bypass himself while also pushing himself back a bit.
Everyone thinks that he can still clearly perceive everything around him even with his eyes closed, to know that the space where he is currently located is completely pitch black and nothing can be seen at all.
The array character's effect is the greatest, he merges into the air, but it's not to say that he completely disappears in this space, because the air is also a substance of this space. Such a flood impact comes, even if the air cannot avoid it.
The greatest effect of the word "阵" is to minimize resistance and pressure to the greatest extent, just like a bubble attached to the surface of a rock at the bottom of a rapid current, no matter how fierce the current is, it's hard to sweep away the bubble.
The six-word mantra fully empowered, the evil force on Wu Zheng's brow disappeared at a terrifying rate of three seconds per drop, but the effect was extremely obvious. In just twenty seconds, he had already crawled out of the stone gate and hid behind the stone gate panel.
At this moment, the tilt of the stone gate became larger and larger, and the force of the rolling flood hitting the stone gate also became stronger and stronger. Finally, with a loud crash, the stone gate closed completely. Taking advantage of the gap in the stone gate just before it closed, Wu Zhengyi was shocked to discover that the enclosed space inside had been completely filled with water, and the silver-white mercury floated in the water, looking terrifying.
Witnessing this scene, Wu Zhengyi felt extremely fortunate and thought to himself that if he had been a step slower and got sealed inside earlier, even with his strong abilities, he would have had no choice but to die.
Not to mention that mercury is toxic, just saying that after being completely sealed inside, there's hardly any air left, and no one can stay in for long.
"This arrangement is indeed ingenious!" Wu Zhengyi exclaimed in admiration, and at the moment when the stone gate was completely closed, the water flow in the passage where Wu Zhengyi was located also shook slightly. Perhaps this shock triggered some mechanism, and the water flow in the passage suddenly began to recede rapidly. In a short while, the floodwater that had originally filled the passage disappeared cleanly.
Until then, Wu Zhengyi finally let out a sigh of relief, but suddenly, his eyebrows furrowed, and he looked up at the void, in his spiritual sense, someone was using Xuan Guang to spy on everything here.
"Should be dead by now?" In a pitch-black space over two hundred meters away from Wu Zhengyi, the little Japanese man in black was muttering incessantly, "The third passageway doesn't have his shadow, the receding floodwaters don't have his shadow either. It seems he should be in the second enclosed space."
Thinking of this, the black-robed man couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Sly Chinese pig, do you think you're impressive just because you managed to sneak past the first test I prepared for you? That was just an appetizer, the second test is the real main course.
"What's the taste like? It seems that I should capture your soul to ask clearly, but there's no hurry. Now the second space is completely sealed off, my Xuan Guang can't enter, and after ten days, I'll open the stone gate again."
After the mysterious light technique disappeared, Wu Zhengxie couldn't help but curse in a low voice, "Damn Japanese pigs, how can Master be so easily killed?"
At this point, Wu Zhengyi suddenly burst out laughing, "The enclosed space inside has been filled with water, even if it's my own Xuan Guang technique that can't detect anything, let alone you, a Japanese pig? It seems that he should have confirmed that I'm trapped inside, which is for the best. I'll accompany you to play well, you have three passes, right? Now I've already passed two of them, but I'd like to see what's so powerful about your third pass?"
As he thought of this, Wu Zhengyi immediately opened his spiritual sense to explore and detect ahead. In his spiritual detection, the 20-meter-long passage in front of him was very safe, with no abnormalities around him, and there were no traps set on the floor. However, at the end of the passage, a mechanism was still installed under the floor!
Along the mechanism's connection, Wu Zhengyi was suddenly shocked, because the mechanism connected to a piece of meteorite from outside the sky, and on top of the meteorite, someone had deliberately installed a sharp thorn.
"This damn mechanism is really deadly." Wu Zhengxie couldn't help but wipe a cold sweat, looking around and finding that if he triggered the mechanism, the stone door would push forward, and in this passage, there was truly no place to hide, another dead end.
But this inevitable defeat is clearly not the third pass that Hei Pao Xiao Yue Ben refers to, because although this pass is dangerous, it also has a huge flaw, and Hei Pao Xiao Yue Ben should not have made such a mistake.
Spiritual awareness advanced, along the opposite side of that day's meteorite, probing to both sides, what appeared in his mind was three large gates.
Those three large gates were not meteorites from outside the sky, although they were also one meter thick, but they could not block Wu Zhengye's spiritual exploration.
Ling's consciousness rushed into the interior of the three large gates, and what appeared in his mind was still three pitch-black passages. Seeing this, Wu Zhengye couldn't help but curse secretly, "Damn it, won't General Zhou's tomb have hollowed out the entire mountain? One passage after another, where is the main tomb?"
Wu Zhengyi was frustrated and helpless, and could only try to push his spiritual sense forward along the three dark channels.
In an instant, Wu Zheng's body shook violently, and a pair of large and small eyes shot out extremely thick and intense rays of light. The dense greed was revealed without any concealment, "Damn it, there are so many gold, silver, and jewels!!!"
Inside the first stone gate on the far left, Wu Zhengye discovered dozens of large boxes filled with countless gold and silver bars, countless pearls and agate. Although the space was pitch black, Wu Zhengye's spiritual sense detected these treasures and his eyes shone brightly, eager to rush over and put those gold and silver bars into his pocket immediately.
"Hmm! It seems that General Zhou is not a good thing either," Wu Zhengxie suppressed the excitement in his heart, and said with a smile, "These gold and silver must be the ill-gotten gains of General Zhou's exploitation of the people. Hmph, since they have been discovered by me, this is heaven's will. I will naturally not disappoint heaven's expectations and will scatter these treasures among the people to help those poor children."
