Chapter 212: Chapter 122: White Lotus Stockade Defeated, Formation and the Mysterious Creature!_3
In front of him, a blood-red glow began to appear.
The blood-red light grew stronger and stronger.
Until at last, he reached a mysterious space deep underground.
It was there that the intensity of the blood-red light finally reached its peak.
…
Gradually adjusting to the intense blood-red light.
Luo Changfeng silently gazed ahead.
Before him, stood a massive altar.
On the ground, an extremely mysterious formation lay, exuding a somewhat eerie atmosphere.
In front of him was a huge statue that seemed to be carved from blood jade.
The subject of the statue was not human.
It was something that appeared human but wasn’t.
It had sharp claws and teeth, two blood-red eyes, and within those eyes were three pupils.
Behind it, there were multiple mysterious patterns.
At its feet were numerous human corpses with their hearts and livers hollowed out, as well as skeletons upon skeletons.
“So, what exactly is this thing?”
Looking at the horrific and bizarrely huge statue before him.
A hint of alertness flashed through Luo Changfeng’s eyes.
The Xuanyuan Continent, full of mysteries.
The Da Feng Dynasty, within the Xuanyuan Continent, was just a very inconspicuous dynasty.
Its territory was not even one in a billionth of the Xuanyuan Continent.
And the Luo Family of Qingshi City, in the Da Feng Dynasty, wasn’t considered a powerful family either.
So all the more when it came to the Xuanyuan Continent.
“Ruan Liuli, you really brought me a huge problem…”
A bitter look couldn’t help but appear on Luo Changfeng’s face.
Although he didn’t know the origins of the so-called Gate of Immortality.
Although he didn’t know what all of this before him signified.
But what he did know was…
In this world, the more peculiar things are, the better it is to avoid making contact with them.
For instance, the demonic monk power that kept growing within the County City of Huai Shui.
For instance, everything he was seeing right now.
None of this was something the current Luo Changfeng could deal with.
…
Taking a deep breath, Luo Changfeng slowly exhaled.
And just as he was about to leave.
Suddenly, the mysterious formation flickered with an extremely blinding blood-red light.
The light was so intense that Luo Changfeng couldn’t help but squint his eyes.
A moment later, the light gradually weakened.
A figure, blood-red in color and with sharp claws and teeth, appearing both human and non-human,
suddenly materialized in front of Luo Changfeng.
The creature, upon first seeing Luo Changfeng, didn’t choose to attack but instead started to run away at a speed somewhat difficult for the naked eye to detect, heading crazily into the distance.
“What was that thing?”
Luo Changfeng waved his hand, taking out about a hundred blood-red Blood Prison Talismans from his storage bag, each also inscribed with strange patterns.
These Blood Prison Talismans were crafted bit by bit according to the instructions laid out in that book.
The power of the Blood Prison Talismans was much stronger than the few used by the Feng Family Ancestor.
And they were also very convenient to use.
“It’s this thing that I want to make, which is many times more difficult than those ordinary talismans.”
[Creak…]
[Creak creak…]
After being forcibly imprisoned in the blood-colored cage by the Blood Prison Talisman.
It looked almost human but not quite, its skin blood-red.
An odd aura emanated from its entire body.
Within its pair of blood-red eyes were three pupils.
At this moment, it was frantically tearing at the blood-colored cage that held it captive.
And it kept opening its mouth, emitting one piercing scream after another.
“Have you caught it?”
Luo Changfeng glanced at the creature in the blood-colored cage and silently approached it.
However, as he came closer to it,
and saw the appearance of the nearly one-meter-tall, not-quite-human creature,
his face inevitably grew more solemn.
The situation now seemed to be far worse than he had imagined.
If they had only uncovered this one hideout, that would have been one thing.
But now, the biggest problem was…
The creature that had suddenly appeared from an unknown mysterious formation
was almost identical to the huge blood-red statue.
Only, one was large and the other was small, that’s all.
…
This is troublesome.
The situation was gradually becoming more complicated.
Letting it go was, of course, out of the question.
Because if this thing were to escape, it could potentially bring a catastrophic disaster to the Luo Family.
And if he were to keep this thing under his control,
what should he do to ensure the Luo Family’s absolute safety?
“Right.”
As he pondered, Luo Changfeng seemed to suddenly remember something and asked Ruan Liuli in a low voice, “Didn’t you mention to me before that, aside from Qingshi County City, there are traces of the Gate of Immortality’s activities in other cities as well?”
Ruan Liuli nodded silently and replied softly, “It’s not only the cities within Huai Shui County, but the entire Luo Mountain Prefecture, and even the Da Feng Dynasty, have shown signs of the Gate of Immortality’s activities in recent times.”
Hearing this, Luo Changfeng’s face gradually improved a bit.
If that was the case,
then things might not have reached the worst stage.
“Let’s go back first…”
“Don’t touch anything here.”
Luo Changfeng looked at the mysterious and unknown formation, his eyes revealing a trace of thought.
Artifact Refining, Alchemy, Talisman crafting.
He had some involvement in all of these.
Only when it came to formations, he had not yet spent the time to study them.
However, not studying
did not mean he knew nothing about formations.
Before, he truly hadn’t thought about what this formation was used for.
But as the mysterious creature was teleported over,
he seemed to gradually recall that he had once read a description of such mysterious formations in an ancient scripture.
Random teleportation, to a place where even the formation master wouldn’t know.
