"The Samsara Sect stole the eyes of the first Ghost Mother, so there must be a tunnel here. Brother Hu, please search carefully!"
"That tunnel is very likely a passage leading to Evil Luo Sea City!"
Hu Bayi is the number one tomb raider of this era, his skills are top-notch, and he quickly found a repaired ice wall.
Use ginger juice to penetrate the inside of the ice wall, then use an electric pickaxe to easily break the ice and expose the rammed earth wall inside!
Compared to the subtle repair marks on the ice wall, this rammed earth wall shows obvious signs of later repairs, with a patch of frozen soil more than half a person's height standing out from the surrounding earthen walls.
Then, rice vinegar was used to corrode the frozen soil. With the powerful and miraculous destruction of the electric pick, the 30-centimeter-high earthen wall was shattered, revealing a deep and winding passage.
Looking at the passageway wide enough for two people to walk side by side, Hu Bayi was stunned for a moment. "Good heavens, is this still a tomb raider's tunnel? This is an underground corridor!"
As a tomb raider, Hu Bayi has seen countless tomb-raiding tunnels.
Most of the tomb raiders' holes were only 30 to 40 centimeters in diameter, like dog holes, barely big enough for one person to crawl through.
Therefore, many tomb raiders were short in stature.
After all, if a burly person were to go down into a tomb, it would require more energy and time to dig a larger tunnel!
Li Yang smiled and said, "This is not an ordinary tomb raider's hole, but a genuine underground passage!"
The Demon Kingdom are inhabited by cave dwellers who have dug a vast network of tunnels beneath this land. You'll be even more shocked when you see the City of Evil Luo Sea!
A group of people filed into the tunnel.
Li Yang was right. After walking along the passage for more than ten meters, the group discovered that this frozen soil tunnel with earthen steps was interconnected and as dense as a spider web!
Li Yang instructed everyone to walk down the main path in the middle. From time to time, they could see various talismans and marks carved on the stone walls on both sides, the most common of which was the "eyeball" pattern.
soon.
The group arrived at a cave that was about twenty square meters in size.
This should be a sacrificial site built by the Samsara Sect.
There were some old stone platforms on the ground, and some white bull heads were piled up in the corner. Above the stone platforms was a huge, ferocious stone statue.
The statue holds the Muchen Pearl in its right hand and has an eye in its left palm.
Ak stared at the statue for a moment, then suddenly realized, "I know where this is, this is the Black Tiger Altar of the Samsara Sect!"
Li Yang warned everyone, "Be careful, everyone. This Black Tiger Altar is located in a burial site with extremely vigorous life force. If a corpse is buried here, it will not only remain intact for ten thousand years, but will also turn into a giant Xuanwu corpse!"
"Also, be careful of the Blood Bait Red Flower, a strange plant that grows from the Xuanwu giant corpse. Its pollen will germinate quickly when it comes into contact with fresh blood!"
"If you have any wounds, never expose them to the air!"
Thanks to Li Yang's reminder, the group narrowly avoided the Blood Bait Red Flower, the Black Tortoise Corpse, the Fluorescent Freshwater Jellyfish, and the eerie Molting Turtle!
Especially the molting turtle, which resembles a small green dog, lives by devouring the flesh and fruit of the blood-bait red flower.
But wherever this thing crawls, fleshy flowers and grasses will grow on the body of the dead. After being eaten, the dead will lose all their essence and blood and become mummies!
But in this place teeming with life, the molting turtle happens to have a symbiotic relationship with the giant corpse of the Black Tortoise.
The molting turtle was shattered by Hu Yifei's sword energy, and Li Yang happily accepted the turtle shell that remained.
"This molting turtle is a thousand-year-old turtle. Its shell is dark red and can cure all poisons. It is a rare treasure!"
The tortoise shell was a rare and precious material, and Li Yang's taking it away was legal and compliant, so no one said anything.
On the road again.
The group had encountered several sneak attacks from Xue Mile, but while these things were terrifying monsters to ordinary people, they posed no problem for Li Yang and his companions.
Several snow tassels were either shredded to dust by Hu Yifei's sword energy or burned to ashes by Wang Zhenqiu's fire control technique!
"Our primary task now is to find the eyes of the Glacier Crystal Corpse!"
Li Yang began by saying:
"The ritual to close the imaginary space passage requires not only the Muchen Pearl, but also a pair of eyes!"
"We can't use the eyes of a living person, so the eyes of the glacial crystal corpse are the best substitute!"
Hao Yi was most concerned about this issue, since his only mission here was to close the imaginary space channel.
"Li Yang, where are the eyes you're talking about?"
Li Yang pondered for a moment.
According to the original story, the two eyes of the Ice Crystal Corpse became the inner cores of the Whitebeard Fish King and the Striped Dragon King, respectively!
However, according to the plot of the web series, the glacier crystal corpse is hidden in a secret room behind a giant ghost mother head statue!
The Ghost Blows Out the Light storyline in this world is based on the web series, but also incorporates some content from the original novel!
For example, the blood bait safflower and the molting turtle encountered earlier do not exist in the web series; they are only recorded in the original novel!
Therefore, Li Yang couldn't guarantee exactly where the Glacier Crystal Corpse's two eyeballs were!
Fortunately, after searching for a while, the group found the huge head of the demon mother statue on the other side of a cliff!
The statue of the Demon Mother has a huge, hollow vertical eye on its forehead, which is the entrance to the secret chamber!
Li Yang originally intended to borrow Hu Yifei's Divine Demon Sword to fly over and use the Muchen Pearl to open the secret door of the secret chamber.
result.
Hu Yifei made unwanted physical advances towards Li Yang!
First, she slipped her right hand under Li Yang's armpit from behind, then she lifted Li Yang's legs with her left hand and gave him another princess carry!
Li Yang was shocked and exclaimed, "Yifei, what are you doing? Let me go!"
"Hold on tight, I'm about to fly!"
Ignoring Li Yang's rebuttal, Hu Yifei raised a sword light beneath her feet, and the two of them soared into the air, leaping over the cliff to reach the top of the Ghost Mother's head statue.
Zhao Li stared in disbelief at the scene.
"Damn, does Li Yang like mature, older women, or do mature, older women just like pretty boys like Li Yang?"
He realized that both Hades Acha and Hu Yifei were definitely mature and sophisticated women!
Damn, Li Yang is eating really well!
Zhao Li admitted that he was a little jealous!
aside.
Feng Shayan and Shirley Yang each pursed their lips and let out a soft snort.
Zhao Li turned his head in surprise to look at the two of them.
Holy crap, what's going on with you two?
It sounds like she's jealous!
Recalling their previous interactions, Zhao Li suddenly realized that both Shirley Yang and Feng Shayan seemed to have a bit of a mature, sophisticated aura!
it's confirmed!
"Damn, so mature women all like Li Yang's type!"
Li Yang, that pretty boy, is all about attracting mature women!
On the other side.
Li Yang used the Muchen Pearl to open the hidden door and found two crystal-clear eyeballs, like crystal beads, in the pool beneath a snake-shaped statue in the secret room!
Hu Yifei and Li Yang returned to the cliff, and everyone took turns looking at the crystal bead.
Li Yang explained, "The eyes of this first-generation Ghost Mother contain the strongest serpent god power, which has evolved into the Boundless Demon Eye, possessing a portion of the ability to transform into a celestial realm!"
"The reason the Samsara Sect stole these crystal eyeballs is to use their power to recreate the Demon Kingdom's capital... Evil Luo Sea City!"
Li Yang had previously told the story of Shadow Evil Luo Haicheng, which everyone was familiar with.
"Next, all we need to do is find the Gate of Disaster to enter Evil Luo Sea City!"
"The so-called Gate of Disaster is a huge crystal wall, and we have two ways to enter!"
"One option is to use force to directly chisel a hole in that giant crystal!"
"Secondly, dive underwater and enter through the gap in the crystal!"
"However, there is a large formation of white-bearded fish at the underwater gap, including a king of white-bearded fish that is more than ten meters long. It should be a spirit, so we need to be careful!"
When Li Yang mentioned the fish trap, Hu Bayi and Wang Pangzi exchanged a glance. They had grown up by the water and had heard many old fishermen talk about fish traps.
The so-called fish formation is a gathering of countless fish, with each fish holding the tail of the previous one in its mouth. The fish wall they form is boundless and spectacular, and can even block the river channel!
Hu Bayi said, "To break the fish formation, we need to use the Ghost General!"
Zhao Li glanced at Hu Bayi in surprise.
How did this kid know I'm Ghost General?
Back then, he led a group of soul ferrymen to enforce the law in the underworld, and he could indeed be called the commander of the ghost messengers!
"This 'ghost general' is actually the leader of the cormorants. In my hometown, cormorants are also called 'black ghosts,' and they are a type of large waterbird that fishermen raise specifically for catching fish!"
"The Ghost General is two or three times larger than an ordinary cormorant, with a beak more formidable than a steel hook, and eyes that gleam with sharp light, making it look like an eagle!"
“Whenever fishermen fail to catch fish for several days in a row, they know they have encountered a fish trap. At this time, all the fishermen pool their money and effort, burn incense and worship the river god, and then put the ghost general into the water. No matter how thick the fish trap is, it can't withstand its three or two attacks and will collapse in a moment!”
As he spoke, Hu Bayi shook his head and sighed.
"However, if there is a white-bearded fish king that is over ten meters long, we would need to find a demonic black ghoul to break through the fish formation!"
Hao Yi only wanted to close the imaginary space passage as soon as possible. Since the waterway was blocked, he decided to directly destroy the gate of disaster!
Li Yang and his group were very fast; what would take ordinary people several days to cover, they could do in just a few hours.
soon.
A huge crystal wall blocked their way.
This crystal wall is hundreds of meters high, covered with mysterious symbols and markings, and the dazzling light of the sky can be faintly seen through it!
If it were placed in the outside world...
Such a massive crystal wall is undoubtedly a national treasure!
But at this moment, we can't care about its cultural relic status. Even the most important national treasure is not as important as the fate of China over the next century!
With a single sword strike, Hu Yifei cleaved the tens-of-meters-thick crystal wall in two, revealing a passage large enough for one person to pass through.
Inside the Gate of Disaster is a huge wind-eroded lake.
Behind the green giant rocks on one side of the wind-eroded lake is a depression that is lower than the lake's water level.
A wind-eroded ancient city, resembling a giant honeycomb, stands abruptly there!
This enormous underground city has at least a dozen levels, surrounded by white, wind-eroded rock, and countless caves!
Above the ancient city is a giant stone carving of an eye!
"Is this the legendary Evil Luo Sea City?"
"Holy crap, why is it so brightly lit inside? It looks like someone lives here."
"Oh my god, have we stumbled into the underworld?"
"Nonsense, the underworld is all modernized now, there are no such primitive buildings!"
When the group arrived in the city, they were surprised to find that although there was not a single person in sight, seven or eight out of ten houses had already lit their lamps.
Fresh fruit was even displayed in front of what appeared to be shops on the street!
A faint aroma of meat filled the air!
Is this the Evil Luohai City that has been lost for thousands of years?
This is clearly a ghost town!
Even Zhao Li, an old man from the underworld, had his doubts and suspected that this place was a ghost realm that had unexpectedly extended from the underworld!
The only thing that reassured him was that there wasn't a soul in sight, not even a ghost!
"Li Yang, what exactly is going on?"
Li Yang smiled slightly, "This is the Shadow Evil Luohai City that I told you about before!"
"The Samsara Sect used the power of the First Demon Mother's Crystal Eye to materialize the Evil Luo Hai City from the Demon Mother's memories into the real world!"
