Chapter 783 The Corpse of the Holy Lion
Jingtian is an eighth-level formation master, so he is naturally very familiar with the directions of the Eight Trigrams. He quickly led a few people to find the direction.
It was also a few meters in front of a stone wall. There seemed to be nothing unusual here compared to the surrounding ground, and there were no signs of fighting.
"Stain this place with your blood."
After observing for a while and finding no trace of any formation, Jingtian gave some instructions to Cindy and pointed to a spot on the ground with his foot.
The corner of Cindy's
Jingtian Xuehua and Jiuxiao were both staring at the bloodstains on the ground.
There was no reaction at first, but after five seconds, the ground seemed to turn into a sponge and absorbed all the blood without leaving a drop.
Buzz!
Just after the blood disappeared, a sound came from the opposite side, and then Jingtian and others quickly jumped away.
The ground, which originally had no trace at all, slowly cracked and finally turned into a huge entrance with a diameter of more than 20 meters. There were no steps at the entrance, and it seemed to be a vertical cave.
When Jingtian arrived at the cave entrance , he looked down. Although it was pitch black, it was not the special black curtain above. With Jingtian's eyesight, he could still see through the darkness.
There is a space about a hundred meters below. It is difficult to see clearly what is on the ground, and the perception cannot detect it. All you can see is that there is also a large space below. The surrounding walls cannot be seen from this position.
"It doesn't look dangerous, go down!"
After Jingtian finished speaking, he was the first to jump down.
Although 90% of the soul power is suppressed here, the suppression of the true energy is relatively poor.
After Jingtian, Jiuxiao followed and flew down, followed by Xuehua and Cindy.
A height of over a hundred meters was nothing to them. They controlled their bodies before landing and landed steadily.
Hulala...
As soon as they landed, as if because of the noise , bursts of sounds of burning flames were suddenly heard all around.
In a blink of an eye, the entire space was completely illuminated by the light of the flames.
This is a square hall with a diameter of about two hundred meters.
There are several huge stone platforms in one corner, which look like huge beds and chairs.
In addition to these and the flames, what attracted Jingtian and the others the most was something next to them.
It is also the thing that Jingtian saw above.
"Is this my ancestor?" Cindy was the first to exclaim.
Jingtian and Xuehua looked at each other and nodded.
What was before him was the corpse of a gigantic lion, with a black spider leg piercing through its body diagonally from the heart.
What is surprising is that after so many years, the lion's fur is still shiny, but it looks thin and shriveled, and the flesh and blood inside have obviously dried up.
Even though only fur and bones are left, it can still be seen that the lion was once only about six meters long.
Even Cindy is ten meters tall now.
Although it doesn't look big in size, Jingtian and Xuehua have no doubt that this lion is the holy beast that left the pictures and writings before.
Obviously, in the end this holy spirit beast chose to return to its bedroom and die, which could be considered a worthy death.
"No, since it can return to its bedroom, it shouldn't die here." Snowflake suddenly said.
"What's the meaning?"
Jingtian, Jiuxiao and Cindy all looked at Xuehua. What this girl said made some sense.
"Idiot, if you wanted to go back to your bedroom and wait for death, would you be in this position? Why don't you go back to the bed and get into a better position? Look at its posture, it didn't die from the fall that moment!" said Snowflake.
After hearing what Xuehua said, Jingtian and the others looked around again.
The lion's head is facing outward, with one of its front paws stretched out, as if it is trying to crawl forward.
The most important thing is that the lion's position is deviated from the cave entrance above, so it can also be explained that the lion did not die directly when it fell, but moved to this side.
"What does this prove?" Jingtian asked Xuehua.
"Maybe there's something it wants ahead, or it might be giving some instructions to those coming later." Snowflake shrugged, a little proud.
"You have quite a detective mind." Jingtian said in a mixed tone.
Xuehua gave Jingtian a blank look, then looked at Cindy and asked, "Isn't there something else you should know?"
"I don't know, I just know to come in, nothing else."
Cindy was a little helpless. At this point, she didn't know what to do next because there were no clues.
"Let's look for it. There must be something wrong. There should at least be other exits. The lion's inheritance... it should have a spirit core, right?" Jingtian's eyes suddenly lit up when he finished speaking.
This is a holy-level spirit beast, so it must have a spirit core. A holy-level spirit core is no worse than a low-level spirit stone.
Jingtian had a good idea, but Xuehua just curled her lips and didn't remind Jingtian.
"Boss, my ancestor's spiritual core is long gone. It was completely dissolved when we activated the lightning treasure, and almost all of its soul power was drained away." Cindy said on the side.
Jingtian was stunned, then felt a little regretful.
"Keep looking, there must be other clues."
As Snowflake spoke, she searched in the direction the lion was facing.
Although Jingtian thought that the direction of Xuehua was most likely to hold clues, he did not follow. He separated from Jiuxiao and Cindy and wanted to explore in other directions.
Jingtian was still observing the wall, but from his direction, apart from torches at intervals of about ten meters, there was nothing unusual on the wall.
"Haha, this princess is so smart. I found the entrance. It's a stone door!" Xuehua suddenly cheered triumphantly.
Jingtian and Jiuxiao rushed over directly. Without Xuehua's guidance, Jingtian also discovered that there were extremely subtle marks on the wall, which happened to be the shape of a stone door.
This stone gate is eight meters high and four meters wide, and fits tightly against the wall. It is very difficult to find if you don't look carefully.
"Let's not talk about how to open it first. If we open it, the suppressed spider saint-level spirit beast will appear behind it. Will we be in danger?" Jingtian looked at Xuehua.
Snowflake rolled her eyes. "I told you, Spider must be dead."
The two had had an argument before. Jingtian believed that the holy-level spirit beasts spider and lion might still be alive, while Xuehua insisted that the spider and lion must be dead.
"It's better to be cautious. I have to consider everyone's safety." Jingtian said.
"Then what do you think we should do? Are we just going to watch the door go by and go back after walking around?" Xuehua gave Jingtian a blank look and said.
"This...you are right. Even if there is danger, we can't retreat like this. Open the door!" Jingtian gritted his teeth and decided to take the risk and open the door.
"Jingtian, Cindy seems to have discovered something again."
Just as Jingtian and Xuehua were discussing how to open the door, Jiuxiao suddenly spoke up and reminded them.
