Chapter 408 Pattern Code
Chapter 408 Pattern Code
The pattern is intricate, like a huge maze or some kind of mysterious formation.
The lines are deep and shallow, and the deep ones are like bottomless abysses, emitting an all-devouring aura.
The shallow areas are like flowing blood, bright and juicy, as if telling of countless sins.
He squatted down and studied it carefully.
"These lines seem to be a kind of guidance, perhaps related to defeating monsters." Chen Yile said.
He looked in the direction of the lines and found that they pointed deep into the cave.
Following the direction of the lines, the ground becomes increasingly rugged, with sharp stone protrusions in some places.
It's like a devil's teeth, and you can get scratched if you're not careful; there are also some small pits in some places.
The small pit was filled with a black mucus that gave off a pungent smell.
From time to time, some bubbles emerged, releasing a black smoke when the bubbles burst, and some shrill screams could be faintly heard in the smoke.
"Let's go over there." Chen Yile said.
The three of them moved forward cautiously along the lines, and the surrounding environment became more and more eerie and terrifying.
From time to time, some dry arms stretched out from the wall, the skin on their arms was cracked like a dry riverbed, and their nails were long and sharp, curved as if trying to grab something.
There were some dark red marks on the arms, like dried blood, which danced on the wall, trying to grab passers-by.
There were also some wriggling insects on the ground. Those insects were covered with thorns, and there were some colorful spots on the thorns, like warnings of poison.
The insects crawled slowly on the ground, leaving a wet trail. Once touched, you would be stung and a sharp pain would immediately come from the wound!
It feels like there is a flame burning, and at the same time there is a numb feeling, as if a part of the body no longer belongs to you.
There was a cry of surprise in the barrage:
"This bug looks so disgusting!"
"Those arms are scary, it feels like hell!"
"Brother Chen and the others must be careful!"
They avoided the withered arms and the wriggling bugs and continued on their way.
Suddenly, a huge stone gate appeared in front of us.
The stone gate was towering into the clouds, almost reaching the top of the cave. It was engraved with all kinds of strange patterns, showing some people and monsters fighting.
People seemed insignificant in front of the monsters, but they still fought bravely, and some were torn to pieces by the monsters.
Blood splattered all over the screen; some were hit by the monster's magic, their bodies twisted and deformed, their eyes filled with fear and despair.
The monsters have all kinds of strange appearances. Some have countless eyes with green mucus flowing in their eyes.
Some have huge wings with human corpses hanging on them; others have bodies that are as serpentine as snakes and spew black flames from their mouths.
Chen Yile walked forward and carefully observed the pattern on the stone gate, hoping to find a way to open it.
The material of the stone gate is extremely hard, like some kind of mysterious metal. It has a faint luster on the surface, but it feels icy cold to the touch.
In the lower right corner of the stone gate, there is a circular groove, and around the groove are engraved some patterns similar to the patterns on the ground. The patterns are like a mysterious code.
Chen Yile guessed that this groove might be the key to opening the stone door.
He looked around and found a stone with a similar shape to the groove.
There are some fine lines on the stone, and the lines echo the patterns around the grooves, as if they were one and the same.
He took the stone and placed it in the groove.
With a "click", the stone door slowly opened.
A powerful airflow rushed out from the stone gate, bringing with it a pungent smell. The smell was like a mixture of sulfur and rotten meat, which was disgusting.
There were some black ashes mixed in the air flow, and the ashes were flying in the air like countless ghosts floating.
They walked into the stone gate and saw a huge hall inside.
The ceiling of the hall was extremely high, and the top was almost invisible. Huge torches were hung on the surrounding walls. The torches burned with green flames, and the flames swayed unsteadily, making the hall look gloomy and terrifying.
There is a stone platform in the center of the hall, on which is placed a book.
The cover of the book is black with some golden lines on it. The lines look like some kind of mysterious text, exuding an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.
"That book might have some tips on how to deal with monsters," Chen Yile said.
They walked towards the stone platform, and suddenly, a sinister laugh was heard in the hall.
The laughter echoed in the hall, making people shudder. It sounded like countless people screaming at the same time, or like the mockery of a devil.
There seemed to be some invisible force in the laughter, impacting their hearts and filling them with fear and anxiety.
"Who?" Chen Yile shouted loudly.
He looked around vigilantly, holding the Tianshi Sword tightly in his hand. The light on the sword looked a little strange under the reflection of the green flames.
His heart beat faster involuntarily, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and his eyes were full of vigilance.
At this time, an evil monk walked out from the shadows of the hall.
He was wearing a tattered Taoist robe that was covered in blood and dust, and emitted a foul odor that was like the smell of a rotting corpse and was suffocating.
There were some holes in the Taoist robe, through which his skin could be seen. His skin was a bluish-gray color, a sign of poisoning or curse.
His face was hideous, his eyes were sunken, and there was a crazy light flashing in his eyes. The light was like the burning fire of hell, as if he was possessed by a demon.
His hair was messy, as if it had not been taken care of for a long time. There was some dust and cobwebs hanging on his hair, as well as some unknown mucus. The mucus dripped from his hair to the ground, making a "tick-tick" sound.
In his hand, he held a bell that gave off a strange aura. There were some strange patterns on the surface of the bell. The patterns seemed to be flowing and struggling.
Every time it shakes, you can hear a disturbing sound. The sound is like countless souls crying, or like demons whispering, which makes people's souls tremble.
The evil monk slowly said, "How dare you, you fools, break in here? This is where you will be buried."
His voice was low and hoarse, as if it came from hell, filled with endless malice. Every word was like a sharp knife, piercing their ears and cutting through their mental defenses.
The evil monk waved his hand, and the surrounding air began to distort, and some black whirlpools appeared.
Black shadows continued to emerge from the black vortex, and those shadows gradually condensed into the shapes of various monsters.
The black vortex was spinning at an extremely fast speed, making a whirring sound, like the howling of the wind or the roar of a demon.
The air around the vortex was sucked into it, forming a powerful suction force that seemed to swallow up everything around it.
