Chapter 258 The Place of Trial, Inheritance of Ancient Demons

Zhou You stood in the void, his eyes like lightning, looking at the huge ancient city in the void.

The ancient city seemed to be not far away from Zhou You, but after Zhou You entered the isolation zone, he realized that the ancient city was still some distance away. It would take some time to get close to the ancient city.

Zhou You turned into black light without hesitation and sped towards the ancient city.

After half a day, Zhou You finally arrived at the huge city gate.

Today, Zhou You's body is like that of an ordinary person, and he has not grown into an ancient demon. Standing under this ancient city, he is as inconspicuous as a speck of dust.

I don't know how high the city gates and walls are. Zhou You's rough guess is that this ancient city must be thousands of miles high. Looking up, you can hardly see the end.

Compared with this city wall, Zhouyou is really inconspicuous.

Who built such a terrifying and huge ancient city?

Zhou You was a little confused.

It took more than ten breaths to finally recover.

After regaining consciousness, Zhou You no longer maintained his original body, but expanded rapidly. His body became extremely huge, turning into a hundred-mile giant.

This way.

In front of this city wall, he has a certain height, and he is not a drop in the ocean.

But even so, the city wall is still ten times higher than others.

It can be seen how terrifying this huge city is.

Perhaps, this giant city was originally a city of giants.

Zhou You took a deep breath and turned into a black light and rushed into the city gate. As he approached the city gate, a huge pressure fell on Zhou You. Even with Zhou You's current strength of Ancient Demon Ruoxuan, he had to come down. .

"This pressure... seems to be specifically aimed at the ancient demon?"

Zhou You's eyes flickered, a little confused.

He has the blood of the ancient demon. Others may not be able to feel the pertinence of that coercion, but Zhou You can clearly sense it.

That power was specifically aimed at the ancient demon bloodline.

Where on earth is this place, where there is a strange pressure specifically targeting ancient demons?

Zhou You took a deep breath, landed, and walked into the city.

However, he discovered that there were many murals on both sides of the passage into the city.

Through those murals, Zhou You gradually understood what this ancient city was used for.

"Could it be that this ancient city is specially used by the ancient demon clan to train their clan members? It seems that every ancient demon needs to enter this ancient city once after reaching adulthood. Some outstanding clan members are qualified to travel here multiple times. .”

Zhou You muttered and secretly guessed: "Obviously, although this ancient city is a dangerous place, it is also a huge blessed place for the people of the Ancient Demon Clan. After completing the trial, they can gain huge benefits."

Zhou You said as he walked forward.

By the end, he had read all the strokes.

"It turns out that this place is the place where the ancient demon clan obtained its inheritance, and it is also the place where the ancient demon clan strengthened their bloodline. Every ancient demon who enters this place can receive a huge improvement, whether in terms of bloodline or strength."

Zhou You suddenly realized: "Obviously, Ruoxuan's bloodline should have been greatly improved after entering this ancient city, but he encountered great dangers in this ancient city, otherwise it would not have become a dangerous place in his memory. .”

Zhou You took out a breath and looked inside the ancient city, his eyes showing a hint of fire.

He wanted to see what was so wonderful about this ancient city that it could enhance the ancient demon's bloodline and allow the ancient demon to inherit its heritage here.

Zhou You walked forward step by step, and soon left the entrance to the city and walked into the ancient city.

As far as the eye can see, there are rows of tall and simple houses in the ancient city.

The houses were disorganized and looked like they were built haphazardly. They were not neat like other ancient cities I had seen during my travels.

When you look around these houses, they feel like tombs.

In fact, these houses are tombs.

In every house, there is an ancient demon tribesman sitting there.

Over the long years, whenever an ancient demon takes its seat, it will enter the ancient city, pick a place, build a huge house, and then sit silently in the house.

This is why the houses in the city look so disorganized.

Tombs cannot be arranged as neatly as houses.

We all know these things around, so it’s not so strange.

Every ancient demon who enters the ancient city needs to rely on instinct to choose a house to inherit.

And this process is somewhat dangerous.

After the ancient demon sat down, it was only its soul. That is to say, the ancient demon's soul will dissipate, but its physical body will not disintegrate. On the contrary, it will be immortal forever, exist in this ancient city, and still have certain abilities.

If the ancient demon ancestor you choose is too powerful, you may not be able to withstand the opponent's ability, which may lead to danger.

Judging from the murals, many ancient demons died in this ancient city.

If he died because of this, he would not even be able to enter the ancient city, and would have to be buried outside and become a lonely ghost.

Zhou You took a deep breath and walked on the largest ancient road in the middle.

There was no sound around, only the sound of his footsteps.

Zhou You now doesn't know what he needs to do to get through this dangerous situation.

If he only defeated one deceased member of the Ancient Demon Clan here, then it would not be difficult for Zhou You. He could just find a house, draw out the body of the Ancient Demon Clan, and then defeat him.

With Zhou You now possessing Ruoxuan's power, and Zhou You himself possessing the supernatural powers of the ancient demon clan, it should not be difficult to defeat the body of a deceased clan member.

In this ancient city, there are probably not many who are stronger than Zhou You.

But Zhou You knew that things might not be that simple.

Otherwise, this wouldn't be called a dangerous situation.

It is estimated that we have to find the ancient demons who challenged Ruo Xuan in the first place.

But how does Zhou You know who the ancient demon tribesman Ruoxuan challenged back then?

Zhou You thought for a while and decided to try his previous idea to see if he could complete the task by defeating an ancient demon clansman.

So I wandered around and came to a nearby house.

The door of this house is tightly closed, and the door hundreds of miles high is covered with a large number of runes.

Following the instructions on the mural, Zhou You raised his hand and pressed on the door. Demonic energy poured into the door, and the door immediately trembled.

Then a huge black light emitted from the house.

"Squeak——"

There was a soft sound, and the door of the house slowly opened at this time.

An ancient atmosphere exudes from inside.

"Dang."

Heavy footsteps sounded.

Then, a dark figure slowly appeared in front of Zhou You.

Then, a giant about a hundred miles in size was seen slowly walking out of the house.

Every step of the majestic giant seemed to shake the heaven and earth, but the floor tiles of the ancient city did not move at all, not even a crack. It can be seen that the materials used to build this ancient city are extremely tough. Even with this level of strength, the floor tiles of the ancient city cannot be damaged. .

But the entire ancient city is still dilapidated.

I also know what happened to this ancient city to become like this.

Even most of the city walls were damaged, and more than half of the city gates were broken.

Zhou You took a deep breath and stared at the ancient demon walking out of the house.

The ancient demon's body was about the same size as his current body, which meant that the opponent was at least a sixth-ring ancient demon.

really.

After the other party came out, Zhou You could clearly see that he had three copper rings on each arm. He was the Six-Ring Ancient Demon.

Unexpectedly, when I randomly found a house, the ancient demon that came out turned out to be the Sixth Ring Ancient Demon.

Fortunately, according to the prompts on the mural, the strength of each ancient demon's body cannot be compared to that in life, so the strength of the six-ring ancient demon is actually not as powerful as the six-ring.

After the Sixth Ring Ancient Demon came out, he stretched out a finger, raised his hand and placed it between his eyebrows, and then lowered his head slightly.

When Zhou You saw that action, he remembered that in the mural, every ancient demon would make such an action before a duel. It should be similar to the fist-holding ceremony of a monk.

Regarding this, Zhou You didn't talk nonsense. He stretched out a finger, placed it between his eyebrows, and then lowered his head slightly.

As Zhou You made the movements, the six-ringed ancient demon finally started to move.

The ancient demon's eyes widened, and two black circles of light flew out of his eyes, quickly restraining Zhou You, making it difficult for Zhou You to move for a while.

Then, the ancient demon roared, and terrifying sound waves surged out of his mouth, sweeping toward Zhou You in circles.

Zhou You shuddered and fell into a daze at this moment.

At this moment, Zhou You was in a state of confusion, as if he was drunk, still intoxicated.

The next moment, countless black swords rushed out from behind the ancient demon.

Upon closer inspection, those black swords turned out to be swords made of black bones, which looked quite strange.

The black long sword rushed towards Zhou You without hesitation, and was about to prick Zhou You into a hedgehog. At the critical moment, Zhou You trembled all over, a golden light flashed in his eyes, and he finally woke up.

"drink!"

Zhou You roared angrily, and the six copper rings on his body trembled at the same time. Terrifying power burst out. The black halo surrounding him instantly shattered, and a protective black light emerged from Zhou You's body.

"receive!"

Zhou You raised his hand and pressed it, and a black circle of light appeared.

The aperture instantly swallowed up part of the bone sword, while the remaining part of the bone sword was blocked by the protective black light and could not harm Zhou You.

Although he blocked the Six-ring Ancient Demon's attack, Zhou You was still extremely shocked.

I didn't expect this ancient demon's methods to be so weird.

The black circles that shot out of his eyes just now were trapped on his body without Zhou You even reacting. Coupled with the terrifying roar, it shocked the soul and made people fall into a state of confusion.

Paired with the bone sword, it’s a killer set!

Without knowing the situation, who can withstand such a horrific attack?

If Zhou You hadn't practiced the "Shen Shen Jue" and the golden seal also emitted golden light at the critical moment, helping him get rid of that negative state, Zhou You might have been killed by the Six Ring Ancient Demon.

So weird.

The methods of these ancient demons.

Zhou You didn't dare to be careless anymore. He raised his hand and pointed at the Six-ring Ancient Demon. The terrifying ancient demon's fingers appeared and instantly crushed the ancient demon.

The six-ring ancient demon has no consciousness, it is just a very simple body. All fighting is based on instinct. He doesn't even know how powerful Zhou You's ancient demon finger is.

I saw the Sixth Ring Ancient Demon without any hesitation, his whole body trembled, and black bone wings sprouted from behind.

The bone wings trembled, blocking his huge body under the bone wings.

It was obvious that the Sixth Ring Ancient Demon wanted to use its black bone wings to resist the wandering Ancient Demon Fingers.

"puff!"

The black bone wing had no ability to resist and was directly crushed to pieces by the ancient demon's finger. However, the ancient demon's finger continued unabated and stabbed the six-ring ancient demon fiercely, sending the six-ring ancient demon flying backwards. Hit the house hard.

"Rumble--"

The house made a violent roar but did not collapse.

On the contrary, it was the six-ring ancient demon with a huge hole in its body, its flesh and blood scattered, and dense black bones could be seen everywhere.

It can be seen how terrifying Zhou You's finger is.

Although they are both six-ring ancient demons, the gap between the two is still very obvious.

Zhou You stared at the Sixth Ring Ancient Demon and did not take any further action, but he was always vigilant. If the Sixth Ring Ancient Demon made another move, Zhou You would not suffer the same loss as before.

Fortunately, after the six-ring ancient demon trembled, he stood up staggeringly. Instead of taking action against Zhou You, he raised his right hand, stretched out his index finger, placed it on his navel, then knelt on one knee and bowed his head. He bowed his head to express his respect.

Zhou You was relieved when he saw this scene.

Judging from the situation on the mural, once the ancient demon corpse makes this action, it means that he has lost, the challenger wins, and the challenger can also obtain all the inheritance of the ancient demon corpse, including blood.

After acquiring inheritance, one's own bloodline will be strengthened.

Right now, Zhou You has defeated this six-ring ancient demon.

However, Zhou You didn't expect to get the other party's inheritance.

After all, this is just an illusion. The illusion is just created by the ancient demon Ruoxuan based on his own memory. Naturally, there can be no inheritance of the ancient demon in it.

What Zhou You wants is just that after defeating the six-ring ancient demon, he will be able to overcome the danger and enter Ruoxuan's head.

Zhou You stared at the Sixth Ring Ancient Demon, but saw that the Sixth Ring Ancient Demon was trembling all over at this moment, and a black air ball came out of his head.

Seeing the appearance of the black air mass, Zhou You was obviously stunned for a moment.

"This is...ancient demon inheritance? How...is this possible?"

Zhou You was a little surprised. He didn't expect that by defeating this sixth-ring ancient demon, he actually inspired the ancient demon's inheritance?

This makes Zhou You feel a bit dreamy.

After thinking for a while, he put his hand on the black air mass.

Immediately, a stream of mixed memories came over, and he felt it carefully, and found that it actually contained the inheritance of the ancient demon, including several magical powers used by the six-ring ancient demon just now!

this……

Zhou You was confused.

Obviously he didn't expect to actually get the inheritance.

In other words, these inheritances are just illusory. Although they are obtained, they cannot be cultivated and cannot bring out the illusion?

Or is this not an illusion at all, but some other special existence? (End of chapter)
