Chapter 280 Dragon-Patterned Whip
Just as he was about to share his discovery, he saw Zhang Qiling standing there blankly, staring at the stone platform in the middle, without responding to what he said.
"Bro?"
Wu Xie called out uncertainly.
There's really no response.
"Holy crap!! Dude!!! Ah Li, the guy's been hit!!!"
Seeing that Zhang Qiling still had no reaction and his eyes were unfocused, Wu Xie hurriedly shouted to call for help.
To his utter surprise, Su Li, who usually responded to everything, ignored him this time as well. He turned around and saw...
Su Li! Xie Yuchen! Hei Xiazi! Wang Pangzi!!
Everyone else, except him, stood stiffly facing the stone platform, expressionless and lifeless, like puppets.
Moreover, they had somehow changed into clothes that were exactly the same as those on the racks...
His appearance and demeanor made it seem as if the people standing beside him were not his companions, but rather puppets dressed in sacrificial robes.
Wu Xie's scalp tingled with fear. He hadn't felt this way in so long. The strange pressure and the feeling of powerlessness that swept over his body made his limbs go weak, and he wished he could just sit down on the ground.
But he couldn't let himself be scared like that. He was the only one still conscious, and his friends were waiting for him to rescue them!
I can do it!!!
These ghosts think they can scare me? Am I innocent? When it comes to the supernatural, you're nothing but a little brother!
……
When Su Li sensed a strange force attacking her, she casually flicked a vine at it, then quickly shielded everyone behind her, summoned the Jade Compass, and activated the defensive formation.
But it seems we were still a step too late...
Squatting down to look at the five people sitting cross-legged on the ground, their eyes closed as if in a meditative state, Su Li sighed.
My reaction was too slow; my third senior brother is probably laughing at me right now...
The third senior brother, who had just opened his mouth to smile, felt four murderous gazes upon him: he trembled and couldn't manage a smile...
boom……
bang bang bang...
A dull thud sounded behind him as he turned around, staring blankly at the stone platform that was being pounded from the inside...
"Why don't you skip this process and just come out?"
If you don't have that scary talent, don't force yourself to go through this process. It didn't scare you at all, and it even revealed a strange sense of sadness. What's going on?
This is even scarier than a rain of insects...
The unknown creature, which was vigorously ramming the stone platform, paused for a moment in a strange manner, then rammed it even more vigorously...
Zurich: ...
I don't understand, but I respect it...
Go ahead and crash if you want, I don't have time to deal with you.
Seeing that the group seemed to be trapped in some kind of illusion, Su Li did not simply and roughly slap each of them awake this time. Instead, she gently placed her hand on their foreheads to sense their condition.
This realization made me realize that this thing really has some skill; it can actually create an illusion similar to a mental demon.
Although this inner demon has been weakened by more than a little, it still has that essence.
If Hua Hua and the others can break through on their own, it will serve as a good reference when they break through to the Nascent Soul stage and overcome the inner demon tribulation in the future.
Su Li left a trace of her spiritual power on each of the people's foreheads to prevent them from encountering danger in the illusion. Only then did she turn her attention to the stone platform that had become still.
Or……
Altar...
The structure, the carvings, the arrangement of the seventh layer, and the large number of sacrificial robes all demonstrate the true purpose of this stone platform.
Sacrifice!
And the object of the sacrifice...
Suddenly, a muffled thud came from the stone platform that had given up hitting it, and the middle part of the platform suddenly collapsed.
The process was exactly the same as the stone platform they had seen at the bottom of the lake, which collapsed to create a space large enough to accommodate a coffin.
Unlike the empty space of the ancient building at the bottom of the lake, the interior of this stone platform is filled.
A jade coffin engraved with flame and cloud patterns appeared before Su Li's eyes. Through the not-so-transparent jade coffin lid, Su Li could vaguely see a dark shadow, but this shadow did not look like a human figure.
"Beep beep, a strange source fragment has been detected. It can be exchanged for 5000000 points. Do you want to exchange it?"
苏黎：?6?1?0?1·?0?8?2?3·?0?8?0?1*?6?2?7?7?0?3?0?3
The origin of this mystery?
Isn't that a cushion representing world consciousness?
Look again...
Fragments! That's alright...
Wait... Young Master Duo!!!
That's impressive!
Su Li's gaze towards the jade coffin immediately shifted from disdain to appreciation, as if the little thing had a promising future.
It's unclear whether Su Li's little glance provoked the dark figure inside the coffin, but the previously quiet coffin lid suddenly jumped twice and then flew directly towards Su Li's direction.
The emerald green vines instantly flew out from his palm, wrapped around the huge coffin lid, and were easily pulled in front of Su Li ahead of time.
"Did I... give you too much face?"
Su Li stepped onto the coffin lid in front of her, and a green shadow seemed to flash across her usually bright and smiling eyes. Instantly, a vast expanse of vines surged toward the coffin.
The shadowy figure in the coffin sensed the danger, and a swirling black mist carrying an unknown body burst forth.
Faced with the overwhelming onslaught of vines, it reacted like a trapped beast, dodging left and right in an attempt to break through the encirclement.
Each time the vines attacking the black mist were hit by its relentless assault, they felt a slight burning sensation, and for a moment they were frozen in place by the black mist.
Su Li did not give it a chance to break through the encirclement. Seeing that the companion vines seemed to be somewhat restrained by the black mist, Su Li raised her hand and took off the dragon-patterned bracelet on her wrist.
With a flash of light, the jade-colored dragon-patterned whip was already in his hand.
The dragon-patterned whip, which hadn't been used as a weapon for who knows how long, emitted a clear dragon's roar, expressing its joy to its young master.
Su Li gently stroked the long whip that was the embodiment of the spiritual vein, then suddenly lashed it out at the black mist.
The whip shadow, almost entirely formed from spiritual energy, landed lightly and effortlessly on the black mist without any hindrance.
The black mist that was hit made no sound, but the originally thick black mist dissipated in an instant, revealing black scales that gleamed with a cold light.
"what!!!!"
The howl, neither human nor beast, was silenced by the second lash that followed.
The black mist dissipated again, becoming slightly thinner.
"Who...who are you???"
A dull, hoarse voice came from the black mist, carrying disbelief and a fear it thought it had concealed well.
