Chapter 708 Sword Tomb
Chapter 708 Sword Tomb
Ye Qing and Chen Xuan simultaneously placed their hands on their weapons, warily looking around!
Light emanated from the gaps in the stone slabs on both sides of the passage, illuminating the entire passage.
All around them were those antique stone slabs, leading to who-knows-where; in front of and behind them were deep, dark passageways.
"Those hands are behind me!" Chen Xuan suddenly pointed to a spot not far away!
Ye Qing suddenly turned his head to look behind him, and sure enough, not far away, those pale hands were floating in the air behind him, looking incredibly eerie.
"What should we do? It looks like these hands are blocking our way and forcing us to move forward!" Ye Qing said.
"What else can we do? It seems we can't fight back against this hand." Chen Xuan said with a bitter smile, "I feel like if we go in its direction, we're going to get beaten up by this hand!"
Ye Qing was in a real bind. He had never heard of such a situation before. He tried taking a step toward his hand!
Just as Chen Xuan had said, one of the hands slowly transformed into a fist.
Ye Qing silently pulled his leg back, then rubbed his forehead and said, "We can only move forward!"
Chen Xuan extinguished the flames.
Then the two of them walked along the passage straight ahead!
"Think about it, before we came here, this mountain was called Sword Peak!" Chen Xuan said. "Then a fight broke out there, and we were captured. We should be underground at Sword Peak now!"
After taking a few steps, Ye Qing looked back!
Behind him, the hands had disappeared without him noticing. He checked the top of his head again, but they didn't reappear.
Ye Qing wanted to take a step back to see if those hands would come out.
But then he thought about it and decided not to do it. If he went any further and angered those hands, he probably would really get beaten up!
He was so frustrated! Damn it, he couldn't even beat someone with two hands!
"These hands pulled us down, then forced us to move forward. What were they thinking, forcing us to go ahead and die?" Chen Xuan asked.
Ye Qing shook his head and said, "Who knows? All I know is that we can't resist!"
"How about... we try to resist?" Chen Xuan asked.
"I accept my fate. Go ahead and try, but I feel like I'll get a really bad beating!" Ye Qing said. "I can't handle that thing!"
“I think so too. This thing must have been left behind by someone above the extraordinary level!” Chen Xuan said.
"What was left behind by those above the extraordinary level?" Ye Qing asked.
"This thing could be a hand left behind by an extraordinary master, or it could have some special properties, or it could be some kind of powerful weapon. Beyond the extraordinary, everything is beyond human comprehension," Chen Xuan said with a wry smile.
The two of them pressed on for a long time, but because they were worried about the danger, they did not move too fast.
After a while, they gradually walked out of the passage, and the space in front of them opened up.
It was still a white light, illuminating the surroundings as if it were daytime. In front of them was a vast ruin, an enormous ruin, on which countless longswords were scattered haphazardly!
Most of these swords were broken and scattered haphazardly around.
"boom!"
Just as the two stepped out of the passage and were shocked by the broken sword in front of them, the passage behind them suddenly closed.
"Grass!"
Chen Xuan was startled and exclaimed, "What's going on? Why is the passage closed?!"
The two tried their best to open the door to the passage, but the door simply wouldn't budge!
"Damn it, we're done for!" Chen Xuan cursed. "I feel like we're going to die here!"
Ye Qing frowned slightly. He felt that those hands that had driven them here must have had some purpose.
He looked around, and only then did he notice that there was a stone tablet directly in front of him!
However, having learned from the experience of the Sword Peak Stele, Ye Qing glanced at it and quickly looked away, but he still saw the words on it!
"Sword Tomb!"
In front of this stone tablet, there appears to be a pale yellow piece of paper.
At this moment, Chen Xuan was still in a state of mental anguish. After hearing Ye Qing's words, he glanced at the stone tablet, and his attention also fell on the paper.
"What is this thing?!" He walked over curiously!
Ye Qing followed and arrived at the foot of the stone tablet.
Chen Xuan picked up the things from the ground, touched them, and said, "Why does it feel like human skin?"
Ye Qing's expression shifted. He reached out and touched it, and indeed, just as Chen Xuan had said, this thing felt like a piece of human skin.
It looked like dried human skin, but it felt delicate to the touch, which was very strange.
Just as Chen Xuan was flipping through the pages, Ye Qing's pupils suddenly contracted!
He discovered that there was a line of words slowly emerging on the skin!
"Holy crap!" Chen Xuan noticed it too, and he was startled. He threw the human skin to the ground.
However, the human skin floated lightly down to the ground, and at the same time, a line of words slowly appeared on it!
"A gift from fate has bound our destinies together. Sword Peak collapsed because of the fight between two fools, and we both fell into this abyss and into this Sword Tomb. There we found a parchment that could lead us out of this place!"
"So we decided to choose someone to pledge their blood to God, and let the parchment tell us how to leave this place!"
It's bizarre, incredibly bizarre!
Chen Xuan looked at Ye Qing and said, "Brother, this thing looks like a treasure. I'll give you this opportunity. Come and sign it with your blood!"
Ye Qing cursed inwardly, this thing looked definitely wrong. He quickly said, "Hey, I definitely can't protect such a treasure. It's only safe for someone with connections like Brother Chen to get it. Otherwise, if it falls into my hands, it will only bring me death..."
"No, no, no, Brother Ye, you need this exactly!"
Just as the two were in a blur, the writing on the parchment suddenly changed again.
