Chapter 369: Killing Game (Part 1)
Fortunately, Gu Chi noticed the abnormality at the first moment and did not suffer any disaster.
From the rear, screams were heard one after another, and they were all monstrous geniuses who were at the top of the younger generation, but they were no match for the methods left by the ancient sages.
The shocking sword light swept across, wrapped in chaotic mist, and directly caused a group of people to explode and shatter into bloody mist.
"Ah, how could this happen?!"
Suddenly, something strange happened in the area in front of Gu Chi and the others, and screams were heard.
Some people did not have time to jump off the Taoist platform and were now tied up there, just like the young man who had just obtained the jade slip in the ancient cave. All their blood and life essence were being madly sucked away by the Taoist platform under them.
Murong Zhixiu and the others were so frightened by this scene that their faces turned pale. Fortunately, they left in time, otherwise they would have turned into the flesh and blood nutrients of the Taoist priest like those people.
Many of those people were well-known geniuses in the North. They were struggling fiercely on the platform at this moment, but no matter how many tricks they used, it was futile. Their originally crystal-clear bodies quickly became shriveled like waste paper, and finally turned into dried corpses and fell down with their heads raised.
It was a very horrifying sight. The blood and life essence of those people seemed to be pulled by something, erupting through their pores and turning into strands of lines that flowed into the platform beneath them.
"What a cruel heart!"
Gu Chi's heart trembled. For the first time, he had a different opinion of the ancient sages who had a sacred aura.
Everyone believed that this was a sacred place left by the ancient sages for them, the later generations, but it turned out to be a dead end.
At this time, there were almost no living people in the mysterious ancient cave which was shrouded in chaotic mist and surrounded by fairy light and auspicious colors. After several rounds of shocking sword beams swept through, only three or four people narrowly escaped death and managed to escape.
As for the Daotai area, only about twenty people escaped the disaster and were now fleeing for their lives.
"Let's go! Get out of here quickly!" Gu Chi shouted, and he and the big black dog used their extreme speed to escape with Murong Zhixiu and others.
However, the road they came from was no longer passable. It had been blocked by a dark red wall since some time ago.
Moreover, the gloomy word "death" above was transformed into the peaceful and holy word "life".
"The dead end has become a way to life?!"
"Then why is it sealed again? Are you going to let us go or not?"
Gu Chi looked elsewhere and found that the remaining 400 passages were also blocked. Many passages that originally symbolized the way to life now had the bloody and gloomy word "death" appearing on them.
The way of life became a dead end, and the dead end became a way of life again, but they were all blocked by a dark red magic wall.
"With such a big word 'life' placed there, it must be the way to survive!" Zuo Shiji strode forward and was about to forcefully blast open the wall in front of him, but was pulled back by Gu Chi.
"The way out isn't necessarily the real way out!" Gu Chi turned around and looked at the sacred ancient cave, which was shrouded in chaotic mist and shrouded in fairy light and auspicious colors, and said, "The bloody lesson is right in front of us. We definitely can't take the way out!"
Murong Zhixiu was frightened and trembled as he said, "We can't end up in a dead end, right?"
Gu Chi said without hesitation: "It's a dead end! Put yourself in a desperate situation and then you can survive!"
After saying that, she flew straight towards a passage that showed the word "death" and raised her hand to strike with a palm.
"Boom..."
Dust was flying, but the dark red magic wall that blocked the passage did not move at all and was not directly blasted open.
"Let's join forces!" The beautiful woman who looked extremely similar to Ying Shili flew over like a fairy, her beautiful aqua blue hair fluttering in the wind.
"Okay!" Gu Chi nodded.
The two of them forgot the unpleasantness of being "hooligans". The situation was urgent at the moment. This place was very evil and staying there for a moment longer would make them feel extremely uneasy.
"Add me in!" Another peerless genius who had narrowly escaped death in the fairy cave came flying in, wanting to team up with Gu Chi and the others to escape from this place.
"Count us in too!"
In the back, all the survivors gathered together, and with everyone's strength, they finally blasted open the magic wall in front of them.
However, just as they set foot on this ancient road, before they had gone far, a sudden flash of disaster appeared, instantly wiping out more than 20 strong men behind them!
"Bang!"
The big black dog reacted quickly and slapped open the lid of the black gold coffin with one paw, allowing everyone to hide inside.
"Sister Qianhe, are you injured?!" Li Wangcen screamed, and found that there was a deep scar on Gu Chi's back that was visible to the bone, and it was bloody and shocking.
"I was accidentally hit just now..." Gu Chi grinned.
"Look, the blood of those dead people is flowing in one direction!" Zhang Zhen looked out through the gap in the black gold coffin.
Upon hearing this, everyone looked outside and found that it was indeed true. The blood of all the dead, whether flowing outside or inside their bodies, now turned into strands and gathered in one direction.
"Blood sacrifice! Is this really the work of the ancient sages? What is the purpose of doing this?" The beautiful woman, whose words and deeds were extremely similar to Ying Shili's, had cold eyes, and there was a radiance like the stars flashing in them.
"It can't be that he wants to revive himself through a blood sacrifice, right?" Li Wangcen made this guess.
"Unlikely." The alluring woman shook her head and said, "If such a method of bringing the dead back to life truly existed, the blood sacrifices of these people alone wouldn't be enough to bring back an ancient sage."
Gu Chi said: "It's useless to discuss this now. The most urgent thing is to escape from here as soon as possible."
Just now, their team had more than forty or fifty people, but in the blink of an eye, there were only more than ten people left.
The four descendants of the great thieves, Jiang Chong, Zhao Shuo, Zhang Zhen, as well as Gu Chi, the big black dog and the beautiful woman with a charming figure.
Gu Chi looked at her and said, "We are now in the same boat. Shouldn't you introduce yourself to us first?"
Hearing this, the woman curled her lips into a sly smile and said, "It's only been a short time since we last met, and you already don't recognize me?"
After saying that, she raised her eyes to look at Murong Zhixiu and Tuoba Cang, and said, "And you two, do you really not recognize who I am?"
Murong Zhixiu was suspicious: "You are not really Princess Shili?"
The woman smiled without saying anything, as if she agreed.
Gu Chi stared at her and looked her up and down, saying, "That's not right. Although you and Princess Shili are 90% similar, your innate auras are obviously different. Could it be that you are twin sisters?"
The woman was dressed coquettishly and giggled a few times before saying, "Okay, let me tell you the truth. I'm actually just an incarnation of Ying Shili."
