Chapter 1272 The stone statue in the ruined temple!
Qingshan hurriedly shouted: "Qingqing, Brother Ye, darkness is coming, you guys come here quickly..."
The others stood up one after another, surrounded by the fire, close together, almost shoulder to shoulder, and immediately made a lot of space for the narrow and ruined temple.
Even the girl Qingqing is no exception.
Seeing Ye Chen's face full of confusion, the little girl suddenly became anxious: "Brother Ye, please sit here..."
Next moment!
The roars outside the ruined temple became more and more intense, and then countless running beasts flocked toward each other.
Among them are giant monsters with tentacles that look like snails, and monsters with only one leg, like frogs, and the strong white ape as strong as a cow...
These beings seemed to be avoiding something, and rushed into the ruined temple wildly, as if they had not seen Ye Chen and others, squeezed together tightly, and then looked outside with fear on their faces.
Ye Chen followed their eyes and saw endless darkness attacking from outside the ruined temple. Countless beasts ran wildly, as if they wanted to avoid it.
However, the darkness was very fast. After the lonely beast fell into the darkness, the sound of chewing meat and bones sounded in the darkness, which was terrifying.
"Soul quicksand?"
Ye Chen's eyes immediately condensed.
He was very familiar with this scene. He had experienced it on the ghost ship. There was a terrifying existence hidden in the black fog, specifically devouring flesh and blood.
Unexpectedly, I saw it here again now, no wonder so many beasts would run together in panic.
Just when Ye Chen thought darkness would pour into the ruined temple.
But I saw darkness suddenly stopped at the entrance of the ruined temple, and no longer moved forward, just like an invisible gate blocking them outside.
“Buzz buzz…”
Fluorescent spots appeared on the stone walls around the ruined temple, and the strange patterns began to squirm, as if the fonts were resurrected one by one.
The stone statue behind everyone also shines with light.
The stone statue looks like a man with long beards, holding a war halberd, glaring at him, covered in dust, containing the breath of time and decay.
Immediately afterwards, whether it was Qingshan and others, or all the wild beasts held in the ruined temple, they all knelt down at the stone statue, as if they were worshiping and praying.
"Di Wei, this is Di Wei..."
Ye Chen looked at the stone statue in front of him quietly, and after feeling the momentum on his body, he couldn't help but be moved.
The stone statue can actually exude the majesty of the imperial realm!
It was this kind of imperial power that blocked the darkness of the outside world outside the ruined temple and saved all living beings.
He secretly took a breath of air: "Is this a powerful Imperial realm who turned into a stone statue?"
Thinking of this, he slowly stood up, walked towards the stone statue, and tried to poke his hand out and touch the stone statue.
"roar!!!"
At this time, all the wild beasts that were originally kneeling and worshiping were roaring at Ye Chen, as if warning.
"Brother Ye, don't do this!"
Aoyama and others also changed their faces greatly: "This is our patron saint, and we should not be blasphemed!!!"
Ye Chen had no choice but to give up and sat down when he returned to his original place, but his mind was constantly active.
The stone statue in front of me must have been a powerful person in the Imperial realm during his lifetime, but why did he turn into a stone statue?
So how could it appear in this sea of taboos? Could it be that the other party, like himself, are they suppressed here?
As the world passes by little by little, the dilapidated temple is extremely quiet. Whether it is Qingshan and others, or the many beast groups gathered on the other side, they maintain a delicate situation and no one takes action.
When dawn broke out, the first ray of sunlight shone on the ruined temple, and the darkness blocked outside the ruined temple dissipated.
The beasts retreated.
Qingshan and others cheered and walked out of the ruined temple to get water, but it seemed as if they were used to all this.
Ye Chen followed them. As soon as he left the dilapidated temple, he saw the grass outside full of various bones.
It seemed to be left last night, and from time to time, a vulture fell down and took a piece of wings and left.
Ye Chen and Qingshan walked side by side and tentatively said: "Did the situation happen often last night?"
"Yes, Brother Ye!"
Qingshan nodded and said with a serious expression: "As long as it comes, no one can go out, and must stay at home. This is the ancestral teaching of our village since ancient times..."
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but remind: "Brother Ye, you have also seen the danger of last night. The clan elders said that there is a terrifying existence in the darkness and can eat people..."
"Then how does your village protect itself in the dark?" Ye Chen asked again.
Qingshan smiled and said, "Because it looks like a stone statue in a ruined temple, there are also many of them in our village. Every time it gets dark, these stone statues protect us..."
Ye Chen nodded secretly, and the doubt in his heart was immediately resolved, and he said, "Do you know the origin of these stone statues?"
"Then I don't know."
Qingshan scratched his head and said in confusion: "These stone statues have existed for a long time, and can be traced back to when our village was not yet established..."
Ye Chen was not allowed to be disappointed.
"By the way!"
Qingshan seemed to remember something and added: "I seem to have heard from the clan elders that these stone statues are our ancestors."
"Ancestor?"
When Ye Chen heard this, he couldn't help but look at him and thought to himself: "So, is this kid still a descendant of a powerful man in the Imperial Realm?"
In this world, it can swallow the true energy and true energy of the practitioners. Therefore, warriors and cultivators cannot live at all and can only survive by relying on brute force. In theory, warriors in the Imperial Realm should not be born.
The only explanation is that these powerful people in the Imperial Realm also came from outside.
After contacting his own experience, he couldn't help but speculate boldly: "It seems that these powerful people in the Imperial Realm were also suppressed here by the Immortal Palace..."
As for how long it will take, he doesn't know.
The only thing that is clear is that even if a strong man in the Imperial Realm falls into this place, he will become a useless person and can only survive by brute force.
"It seems that this immortal palace is not simple either..."
Ye Chen narrowed his eyes: "From the way that man knocked me to the sea of taboos, the opponent's inevitable cultivation level in the late stage of the God Transformation is even higher..."
higher?
That is the Void Refining Period!
Thinking of this, even Ye Chen's mind was so nervous that there was a cultivator in the refining stage of the Void.
Anyone would be surprised.
Of course, this is just his guess. As for whether it is true, he still doesn't know.
"The current strategy is to first understand the sea of taboos, and then find a way to find out Wushuang's whereabouts, and then take him away from here with you."
Thinking of this, his eyes couldn't help but pause on Qingshan: "Maybe the clan elders he mentioned should know something..."
At this time, several figures came from afar, leading a middle-aged man wearing animal skin and powerful arms: "Qingshan, are you okay?"
"father!"
