The White Fox Hidden in the Ruins
For some reason, the closer they got to the Immortal Welcoming Platform, the stronger the resistance they felt. In the end, it was even more difficult for them to take a step forward.
Finally, the three of them used up almost all their strength and stepped onto the last stone step. The Immortal Welcoming Platform that greeted their eyes made the three of them unable to come back to their senses for a long time.
Different from what he saw in the illusion, the Heavenly Jade Pillar was several meters tall, and the bronze floor was coated with a layer of glaze.
The entire welcoming platform was a hundred square meters, and the bronze floor was carved with dragon patterns that symbolized royal power.
Thunder clouds pressed down, lightning flashed, and thunder rumbled. Every time the lightning lit up the Immortal Welcoming Platform, the four statues standing beside the jade pillar could be seen.
Fuxi!
Gonggong!
Zhurong!
Yu Qiang!
In the center of the platform was a dragon throne, and beside it was a statue of Nuwa.
From this scene, it was not difficult to see that King Zhou of Shang was very ambitious. The ancient gods were reduced to garrison here, and the statue of Nüwa was built beside the dragon throne. It was obvious that she was an attendant.
This was actually somewhat similar to the apotheosis exercise in mythological stories.
The three of them slowly stepped onto the Immortal Welcoming Platform, only to find that the pressure was even stronger…
As if he had caught something, Zhang Qilin immediately looked at the dragon throne that was as tall as a few people.
"There's something behind the dragon throne…"
Hearing this, Hu Bayi and Wu Sangou immediately became vigilant. At the same time, the three of them walked to the side of the Immortal Welcoming Platform so that their vision would not be blocked by the dragon throne.
However, in the next second, Hu Bayi and Wu Sangou's eyes widened.
He saw a white fox sitting cross-legged behind the dragon throne like a human, which was in the center of the Immortal Welcoming Platform. It was meditating quietly with its five hearts facing the sky!
Looking up again, the thunderclouds here were especially deep. It was clearly attracted by this white fox.
It was said that demons were afraid of heavenly lightning, but at this moment, the white fox was sitting cross-legged under the thunderclouds. The four tails behind it were constantly fluttering, and it was especially eye-catching.
"Damn it, it has four tails?”
"Is this fox a cross breed?" Wu Sangou asked in astonishment.”
Hu Bayi was speechless. He swallowed and said,""This is clearly…a demon!"
Wu Sangou couldn't believe his eyes. The four-tailed white fox was actually sitting there like a human.
"The Bureau Chief was right again! There were actually demons in this world, and they were the legendary fox demons?”
The two of them had an understanding of myths and legends about demons and even some ancient records.
However, the two of them had never thought that there would really be demons in this bright world.
Moreover, just as the records said, demons often possessed unimaginable power.
It was as if the three of them had just walked out of the ground and were unknowingly bewitched.
If not for Zhang Qilin, who was comparable to a cheat, the two of them would probably have been immersed in the illusion and trapped.
Zhang Qilin frowned solemnly.
" That's it. It led us into the illusion…"
Hu Bayi looked at the white fox warily and observed the thunderclouds above its head."
"These thunderclouds seem to have gathered because of it. Could it be the legendary tribulation?”
"No!"
Zhang Qilin stared at the white fox and said,"
"These thunderclouds are caused by the Welcome Immortal Platform. After the magnetic stones in Mount Kunlun continuously absorb and accumulate magnetic force, they finally gather on the Welcome Immortal Platform.
The Yingxian Platform was located at a high altitude. Under the effect of the magnetic force, it would cause weather fluctuations and produce lightning effects.
This fox was relying on the power of the heavenly lightning to sense the dragon vein and absorb the fate of the country to cultivate!
"Because it can't steal the country's fate by itself. However, with the help of the heavenly lightning, it can sense the dragon vein and steal the country's fate…"
Zhang Qilin had never said so many words at once, which showed that his heart was quite complicated at this moment.
The three of them did not expect that the demon actually existed and was even right in front of them.
Moreover, this demon knew how to use the power of nature to steal the invisible fate of the country!
……
At this moment, the white fox seemed to have sensed the three of them. It gently opened its eyes and looked at the three of them.
A red light flashed in his eyes.
Hu Bayi and Wu Sangou only felt a slight dizziness before they returned to normal.
"It wants to use an illusion on us!"
Hu Bayi quickly reacted. Fortunately, they still had Zhang Qilin's Qilin Blood on them, so they were not affected.
The demon was right in front of him. Everything was just as Chu Jian had said. This demon was indeed in the Immortal Welcoming Platform above the dragon vein, absorbing energy to cultivate.
The two of them noticed that Zhang Qilin was slowly gripping the hilt of the black gold ancient saber. Realizing that something was wrong, Wu Sangou immediately asked,
"Zhang Qilin, what are you doing?"
Zhang Qilin stared at the fox demon sitting not far away and said coldly,"
"Under the orders of the chief, slay the demons!"
"Rumble!"
With a single word, lightning struck!
The demon word and the thunder mixed together, as if it was a decree from the heavens.
The fox demon's gaze instantly fell on Zhang Qilin. It keenly sensed that the killing intent on Zhang Qilin's body was getting stronger and stronger.
Hu Bayi looked at the lightning in the sky. He clenched his teeth and held the Vajra Umbrella in his hand.
Although the Vajra Umbrella was a conductor under the Heavenly Thunder, Hu Bayi knew that it would be difficult to deal with this unheard of demon without it.
"Attack!"
In the next moment, Zhang Qilin let out a low shout and charged towards the fox demon. Although the two of them were not confident, they gritted their teeth and followed.
He couldn't just watch Zhang Qilin deal with it by himself, right?
"Compared to our mission, fighting back is nothing!”
Wu Sangou was panicking. He suddenly felt that the dangers he had encountered in the past were nothing.
This first mission had refreshed their worldview. The creature that everyone treated as a legend was actually sitting in front of them.
And now, he wanted to fight it…
Although the two of them were experts in reverse combat, the problem was that they wouldn't encounter demons even if they were tomb raiders.
"Just as the Bureau Chief said, the danger level of the 543 exploration team's mission is not something that can be compared to a fight!”
At this moment, Wu Sangou took out a few more yellow talismans from his treasure chest and handed them to Hu Bayi."
"Take it first. It might be useful…"
Hu Bayi nodded. He could not help but recall what Chu Jian had said during the special training.
"In this world, there are still many existences that you don't know about. Demons are one of them.
Demons had demon spirits, and they could cultivate into demon cores. As long as the demon cores were not destroyed, the demon spirits would not be destroyed.
Even if their bodies are destroyed, they can still survive by relying on their demon cores. They can even borrow bodies to revive their souls…"
At that time, the three of them thought that this was nonsense. The saying of demons and ghosts was pure nonsense. They did not expect that it would actually come in handy today.
Fortunately, in order to pass the test, the three of them remembered everything that Chu Jian taught them. Otherwise, they would be even more nervous now.
The white fox's eyes were clearly filled with anger as it watched the three people approaching. The lightning seemed to have sensed this anger as it rolled over from the black clouds.
The strong wind was so strong that people could not open their eyes. In this thousand-year-old historical site, it was as if they were in the end of the world...
