Chapter 138 Rescued Again
Chapter 138 Rescued Again
The power of the ancient warrior corpse far exceeded their expectations.
"We must go!" Chen Yile finally made up his mind and shouted.
"It's impossible for us to win just by the two of us!"
Lin Feihong nodded, knowing that the current situation was irreversible.
The two men looked at each other and rushed towards the stone gate in tacit understanding.
However, just as they were about to reach the stone gate, the ancient warrior corpse suddenly let out a deafening roar.
The entire stone chamber instantly fell into violent vibration.
The walls of the stone chamber began to crumble, and huge rocks fell from above, blocking their way.
Seeing the ancient war corpse approaching step by step, Chen Yile and Lin Feihong were trapped in the corner of the stone chamber with no way to retreat.
"Feihong, I'm afraid this time..." Chen Yile looked at Lin Feihong in despair, his face full of helplessness and unwillingness.
Lin Feihong took a deep breath, gripped the peach wood sword tightly, and a look of determination flashed in his eyes: "Even if it means death, we can't let it succeed so easily!"
At this critical moment, a loud roar suddenly came from a corner of the stone chamber!
Then a strong white light gushed out from the crack.
The white light was as dazzling as the scorching sun, instantly covering the entire stone chamber and completely submerging the figure of the ancient warrior corpse.
Chen Yile and Lin Feihong were so shocked by this sudden change that they stood there in a daze!
They could only watch helplessly as the white light rapidly spread, eventually engulfing the entire stone chamber...
When they regained consciousness, everything around them was quiet.
The white light disappeared, and the figure of the ancient warrior corpse disappeared without a trace.
Only the broken stone chamber and collapsed stone walls showed the fierce battle just now.
"What... happened?" Chen Yile's voice trembled as he looked at everything in front of him in disbelief.
Lin Feihong slowly put down the peach wood sword, his expression complicated: "It seems... someone is helping me secretly..."
The two looked at each other, their hearts full of confusion and anxiety.
However, at this moment, those who survived were no longer able to explore the truth behind it.
There was silence on the barrage at this moment, and the audience seemed to be shocked by what had just happened and was speechless.
Only a few comments slowly emerged:
"What was that just now? Is anyone helping them?"
"Is there another guardian in this ancient tomb?"
"That's right... I feel like it's not over yet..."
The two adjusted their breathing and stood up with the help of each other.
Chen Yile glanced at the passage ahead and whispered, "No matter what, we have to find out the truth."
Lin Feihong nodded. "Let's rest for a while before we continue on our way. This ancient tomb... must be hiding some secrets we don't know about."
Chen Yile just nodded.
After a short rest, the two set out on the unknown road again, heading towards deeper darkness.
The stone chamber behind gradually fell into silence, as if nothing had happened.
After entering the passage, they gradually left the oppressive atmosphere of the stone chamber.
But the darkness ahead is still bottomless.
The surrounding stone walls gradually disappeared, replaced by a soft but strange light.
It was as if the light source did not come from a torch or lantern, but emanated from some unknown existence.
"Something seems to be wrong ahead..." Lin Feihong frowned, cold sweat oozing from the palms of his hands that were tightly gripping the peach wood sword.
"We have come to this point. There is no way to retreat. We can only keep moving forward." Chen Yile gritted his teeth and made up his mind.
He didn't want to experience the feeling of powerlessness he just felt.
The barrage became active again:
"Wow, these two are really tough!"
"What else is waiting for them in the ancient tomb?"
"Brothers, make a vow not to die. These two will probably end up in the big boss room!"
……
As the two continued forward, a strange entrance gradually appeared at the end of the passage.
The entrance is covered with dense vines, which are covered with bright red flowers and emerald green leaves. It looks both beautiful and strange.
"Is this... a maze?" Chen Yile stopped and stared at the vine wall in front of him with a frown.
"It's probably some kind of trap." Lin Feihong gently pushed aside the vines with the tip of his sword.
However, they found that these plants were extremely tough and could not be cut easily.
The two looked at each other, feeling a little uneasy, but there was no way out, so they could only bite the bullet and step into the maze of plants.
As soon as I entered the maze, the surrounding environment changed instantly.
The originally bright passage was immediately covered by dense vines, and the light from the outside was completely blocked, leaving only the strange glow emanating from inside the maze.
"We seem to be... lost?" Chen Yile raised his head.
Looking around, I found that no matter where I went, the scenery around me was almost exactly the same.
Lin Feihong tried to make a mark with a peach wood sword.
But these vines seemed to have the ability to repair themselves, and the sword marks soon disappeared.
"This isn't good," Lin Feihong sighed. "These plants are not only resilient, but they can also repair themselves. It looks like we're trapped here."
The audience on the barrage also fell into a frenzy of discussion:
"It's over, it's over! The maze has always been a high-risk area in supernatural live broadcasts!"
"Can these two still get out? Why do I feel like I'm going to die?"
"Don't be afraid, you might even meet an NPC who can help you!"
In the maze, time seems to be infinitely stretched.
The two walked for a long time but still couldn't find a way out. The vines around them seemed endless.
Just when they were about to give up, Lin Feihong suddenly stopped.
"Wait a minute, did you hear any sound?" He looked around vigilantly, his voice very low.
Chen Yile held his breath and listened carefully, and indeed caught a faint sound in the quiet air.
It was like the sound of some creature crawling on the ground, the sound coming and going, making people feel creepy.
"What is this thing..." Chen Yile whispered, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.
Suddenly, a crack appeared somewhere in the vine wall, and a shriveled old man slowly crawled out.
His eyes were empty and lifeless, with a sinister smile on his lips, and in his hand he held a rusty long knife.
"He is... the heart-digging old man!" Lin Feihong recognized him instantly.
This is a very vicious evil creature in legend, which specializes in taking out the hearts of living people to maintain its own immortality.
"Oh no! We may not be able to handle this thing!" Chen Yile's heart tightened.
He immediately raised the talisman in his hand and prepared to fight.
The heart-digging old man's mouth cracked, and he let out a hoarse laugh and suddenly pounced on the two of them.
It was extremely fast and approached them almost instantly.
Lin Feihong swung his sword quickly, and the golden light of the peach wood sword flashed again. However, when the sword tip was about to touch the heart-digging old man.
His body suddenly turned into a ball of black smoke and instantly circled behind Lin Feihong.
