Chapter 176 Coffin Cave and Ocean of Bones
Chapter 176 Coffin Cave and Ocean of Bones
When he led the two down to stand on a pebble beach, looking up at the waterfall, it truly resembled a silver river falling from the heavens.
The drop of this cliff is astonishing, ranging from one to two hundred meters, and the rushing water has carved out a huge deep pool below.
The overflowing water formed a stream that spread and disappeared along the canyon-like underground fissure.
"Brother Bo, given the height here, I believe Zhang Menzi can come down, but it's impossible for that white-faced Wu Xie to come down, right?"
"Normally he would indeed go downstream, but with chains hanging down from the water, it's not impossible if he's lucky."
Just as they were talking, Bai Maomao suddenly pointed to a place not far downstream.
"Bo...Bo, dead...there are dead people!"
The three of them went over and saw that there was indeed a foul smell coming from the pile of pebbles.
"Brother Bo, should we dig it up and take a look?"
"Dig for a damn thing, it's so disgusting inside you'd probably throw up your dinner from last night."
Ji Haobo rolled his eyes, turned around and left, carrying Laura behind the waterfall. Looking up, he could see that there really was a cave.
"Holy crap, the Water Curtain Cave, could it be a monkey's lair inside?"
When Erpang swam over and saw the cave, he couldn't help but make a joke.
There are no monkeys, but there are definitely plenty of mice.
Erpang and Laura were completely confused, but as they entered the cave, they noticed some rats scurrying around.
"Come on, keep up!"
Their pursuit drove the rat to run desperately forward through the cave.
After a short while, the rats suddenly disappeared, and they stopped in their tracks, for there was no road ahead, only an endless underground space.
The scene inside was extremely horrifying. As far as the eye could see, countless coffins were stacked on top of each other on the cliff face, and a large number of will-o'-the-wisps flickered around.
More than 20 meters below them lay a sea of bones, with mountains of skeletons rising up, shrouded in a thick, eerie mist that obscured the view below.
"hiss…"
When Wang Pangzi and Laura saw the scene before them, they both gasped in shock.
"This...this...is this hell?"
Compared to the scene at Himiko's tomb last time, even more people died here, and the countless skeletons were even more chilling.
Just then, a gunshot rang out from the dark mist at the foot of the Bone Mountain, accompanied by a faint flash of crimson light, but it was immediately obscured by the mist.
"Bo...Bo-ye, that flash of light, that should be Zhang Menzi, right?"
Erpang's face lit up with surprise when he heard the sound and saw the flash of light.
"Something must have happened. Let's go down and help!"
Do you think what's down below is the same as what we see up above?
Ji Haobo shook his head and sneered as he looked at his impatient appearance.
"Those mountains of bones were piled up in special locations, forming a special domain field like an array."
An ordinary person would get lost instantly if they went down there; otherwise, Zhang Menzi wouldn't have been trapped.
After he came out of the passage, he realized that this underground space was extremely strange.
From above, it seemed that all that existed were white bones and coffins, but he could sense a spatial fluctuation that was out of place with reality, somewhat similar to the Illusionary Realm.
Moreover, his card-drawing points just increased by about a hundred, and now they are increasing by a dozen or twenty every now and then.
"What...what should I do?"
Erpang was both shocked and anxious upon hearing this. Formations were things from myths and legends, and they were terrifying beyond measure.
"What should I do? Let's eat it cold!"
Ji Haobo raised an eyebrow and shrugged indifferently.
"I was just letting you know how powerful it is down there, not saying I can't break through it."
"Hey! Mr. Bo, you... could you please speak more clearly next time?"
Erpang breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at him with a reproach.
Ji Haobo ignored them, put away the drone, told Laura to get ready, and then jumped down with the two of them.
Before they even landed, the scene before them changed.
Will-o'-the-wisps flickered on the White Bone Mountain, and they were not the ten-meter-high flames that appeared from the outside.
These mountains of white bones, shrouded in mist, stretched as far as the eye could see, creating a sense of oppression.
Moreover, the surrounding fog was not only chilling and oppressive, but also made it impossible to distinguish east from west;
Combined with the eerie green glow of the will-o'-the-wisps, the atmosphere became incredibly sinister and terrifying.
Besides, what's truly chilling is that there are countless rats scurrying around, and many of them are unusually large.
As soon as they appeared, the rats' eyes turned bloodshot, and they swarmed towards the group.
Laura was about to fire, but Ji Haobo stopped her. One or two guns were no match for so many rats.
The best approach is to use area-of-effect attacks, which is why the Demon Blade Thousand Blades appeared.
As Erpang stared wide-eyed in disbelief, Ji Haobo arrogantly shouted:
"Everything in the world is reduced to ashes!"
The saying goes, "It's fun to show off for a moment, and it's fun to keep showing off. A great life without showing off is meaningless!"
The blue light bloomed like a lotus flower, turning the surging rats to ashes.
It then spun around, forming a blue halo. None of the rats that approached could break through it; only drifting ashes fell.
Even though Lara had witnessed the knife's magic in the desert, she was still utterly astonished by this breathtaking scene.
"Master Bo... if you're planning to ascend to the Immortal Realm that day, you must take me with you!"
Erpang thought Ji Haobo was an omnipotent god; he couldn't think of anyone else with so many exaggerated abilities.
Ji Haobo nodded, then patted him on the shoulder with a smile and teased him.
"No problem, I'll recommend you for the role of Marshal Tianpeng then, hahaha..."
The large number of dead rats around them finally frightened the remaining ones, who turned and scattered in all directions.
Laura glanced at the dust around her, then turned to Ji Haobo and asked.
"Bo, which way do we go?"
There are hardly any roads in this place, only gaps between mountains of white bones, so you can go anywhere in the east, west, south, or north.
However, due to the fog obscuring the view, one had no idea which way to go while walking inside.
"You guys come with me!"
Ji Haobo could sense the locations of Zhang Menzi and Bai Mian'er, so he didn't need to wander around aimlessly.
Of course, if he were to unleash his ultimate move, he could also break through this place.
However, Ji Haobo was worried that some people would be scared away, and some might even be hiding and too afraid to come out, since this was a card-drawing point!
As the group moved forward through the dark mist, will-o'-the-wisps began to drift around them, revealing scattered ghostly soldiers, though they appeared somewhat weak and listless.
"Bo, I'll handle them."
Laura saw the two phantom figures resembling ancient soldiers and excitedly rushed over, as her bloodline had a natural advantage against these ghostly spirits.
Laura's fist emitted a faint white light, and when it landed on the ghost, smoke immediately rose.
Upon seeing this, Erpang stared wide-eyed and opened his mouth so wide it could almost fit a duck egg.
