Chapter 694 Skeleton
Huan Yin felt the depth of the huge pit not long after he rushed down.
At this time, Huan Yin had already rushed down about 300 feet. Even if the distance he landed from the air was excluded, he had already rushed down nearly 200 feet from the highest point of Izumo Island. And this distance means that Huan Yin had already rushed over the ground of Izumo Island and came to the place below the sea surface.
"The newly exposed soil around due to the impact is already covered with dust, and there are signs of erosion by the sea moisture. From this point of view, this pit has been untouched for a long time. Maybe, since Xing Tian was discovered, no cultivator has come here. If that's the case, then I have a greater chance of getting some gains." While falling, Huan Yin kept observing the situation around him and gave his own judgment.
However, although he saw some clues here, Huan Yin also felt that Izumo Island was really desolate. There was nothing on the island originally, and now even in this pit, even though he had rushed down such a long distance, he found nothing, which really made people feel a little speechless.
In this way, Huan Yin rushed down at a not too fast speed while observing, and soon crossed a distance of 500 feet. And this time, he still didn't find anything new. But he was a little shocked by the depth of the pit.
You know, such a deep pit, ordinary power can't bombard it at all. Even with Huan Yin's current cultivation, I'm afraid he can do this much when he exerts his full strength.
"What happened here? Did a meteorite from outer space fall here? Wu Jue once said that Xing Tian came from a corpse here. I don't know if that corpse is still there." The thoughts in his mind kept spinning, and Huan Yin's falling speed remained the same.
And after descending about 200 feet in this way, Huan Yin's total falling distance has reached a thousand feet. At this time, in his slightly outward consciousness, the bottom of the huge pit finally appeared vaguely. At the bottom, Huan Yin seemed to see something lying.
"We're here. I didn't expect it to be so deep." After discovering the bottom of the huge pit, Huan Yin's mood was a little nervous. He even used his spiritual power slightly and subconsciously deployed the power of protection.
Such caution is natural. Moreover, the depth of the pit is beyond Huan Yin's expectations. At least with Huan Yin's current cultivation, it is impossible to smash such a deep pit with one blow.
The speed of falling began to slow down gradually, but as Huan Yin fell farther and farther, the situation at the bottom of the pit became clearer and clearer in his consciousness, and the "thing" at the bottom of the pit finally revealed its full appearance under his consciousness.
It was a skeleton that had been completely dried up long ago, without even a bit of flesh and blood left, and even because of the erosion of moisture, the skeleton felt slightly moldy. When Huan Yin saw the skeleton, he immediately thought of the so-called "corpse" mentioned by Wu Jue. It seems that the "corpse" at that time has now become the skeleton that Huan Yin saw.
"Since it is still there, it will be much easier to deal with." Huan Yin thought so.
Then he used his spiritual sense to confirm again and again that there was no spiritual power fluctuation at the bottom of the giant pit, which was equivalent to no threat to him, so he accelerated and rushed down.
After his feet touched the ground, Huan Yin stood at the bottom of the slightly wet giant pit. This place is not big, and at most it can accommodate eight or nine people standing at the same time.
Huan Yin stood a little to the side, but his eyes stayed on the skeleton at the center of the entire pit without flickering.
From such a close distance, Huan Yin could observe everything on the skeleton very clearly. And he soon found that the skeleton was lying completely flat at the bottom of the giant pit, without even the slightest distortion. Judging from this, the skeleton must have died before it fell to the bottom of the pit, so it didn't even struggle at the bottom of the pit.
"This skeleton must have been extremely powerful when it was alive, otherwise how could it have smashed such a hole in a corpse. I just don't know who he is. I think he must have been a nobody when he was alive. But now, there is not even a funeral. The skeleton has been exposed to moisture here for more than a hundred years." Looking at the skeleton in front of him, Huan Yin slowly squatted down.
Then, he saw many fractures on the skeleton. These fractures were all over the skeleton. It can be imagined how terrible the skeleton suffered before it died.
"Xing Tian was found from you. It seems that you were probably a cultivator in the heaven when you were alive. I just don't know what kind of relationship you have with Emperor Shitian." Thinking of this, Huan Yin slowly reached out to the robe outside the skeleton, and subconsciously wanted to pat the dust off it.
This was an action without reason, and Huan Yin didn't know why he wanted to do this. But soon, as he gently patted the robes outside the skeleton, extremely thick dust was raised, making Huanyin feel that he couldn't breathe properly.
With a helpless smile, Huanyin became more and more convinced that the skeleton had been ignored for too long. After the dust was raised, a few strange colors soon appeared in Huanyin's eyes.
"Hmm?" With his eyes fixed, Huan Yin looked at the colors revealed by the dust-free part of the robe, and many memories immediately flooded into his mind.
Before, because of the dust covering it, Huan Yin did not notice the colors of the robe on the skeleton. But now, when he saw those strange colors, he immediately thought of the heaven.
Although Huan Yin had never set foot in the heaven in his life, he was extremely sensitive to the colors of the heaven. And now the colors on the skeleton's robe are not the colors unique to the heaven?
What's more, Huan Yin has also seen these unique colors of the heaven. This combination is exactly the same as the color combination of the armor of the unknown monk that Huan Yin saw in the huge pit when he passed by when he returned to his hometown in Yangzhou from Wuliangmen!
The sky is in chaos, and reincarnation is unfair!
Memories from long ago floated up, and Huan Yin naturally knew that the armored monk in the huge pit in the human world was a monk from the heaven, and most of them were guards of Emperor Shitian. If so, then the skeleton in front of him is not also a warrior under Emperor Shitian?
"You should be a personal guard of Emperor Shitian, otherwise how could you carry the sealed Xingtian with you? It's a pity that even Emperor Shitian was already at the end of his strength, why did you have to protect Xingtian?" Huan Yin quickly guessed the identity of the skeleton, and he also thought that the skeleton's death was probably related to his desire to protect Xingtian.
It must be said that this skeleton was really loyal to Emperor Shitian when he was alive. Even the things that Emperor Shitian had given up, he had to protect them at the cost of his life, so as not to let them fall into the hands of those Asuras. Moreover, it seems that he really did it.
Although he died in the end, although he was directly blasted into hell. But Xingtian is still there!
Thinking of this, an inexplicable feeling of sadness grew from the bottom of Huan Yin's heart, making Huan Yin suddenly feel a panic in his chest.
Huan Yin had never seen Emperor Shi Tian, but to this day, many things about him have been inextricably linked to Emperor Shi Tian. So he thought that perhaps he should be sad and should be moved for this predecessor who defended the Xingtian Sword with his death.
Standing straight, Huan Yin quickly bowed respectfully to the skeleton and said, "If it weren't for the protection of the senior, Huan Yin would not have the blessing to get Xing Tian. Although Xing Tian has been sealed, Huan Yin swears to the senior that as long as Huan Yin is still alive, he will do his best to cultivate Xing Tian so that he can regain his former glory one day!"
"Moreover, Huan Yin and Luo Hou are irreconcilable. One day, I will enter the heaven, defeat the people of Asura Dao, kill Luo Hou, and avenge the senior and Emperor Shi Tian!"
With arrogant words, spoken from Huan Yin's mouth, every word is sonorous and powerful, revealing his determination. Perhaps Huan Yin is just an ant that Luo Hou doesn't need to care about now, but Huan Yin has a determination to change the world, and one day he will become a world-shaking force!
"Clang!" A sword sound suddenly sounded from Huan Yin's body. Soon after Huan Yin finished speaking, Xing Tian actually floated out automatically, slowly hovering above the skeleton, emitting bright silver light.
The immortal sword has spirit, and it is worshipped with light.
Huan Yin looked at Xing Tian, who suddenly appeared with a little sadness and attachment. At this moment, he, the master of Xing Tian, seemed to be able to feel Xing Tian's emotions, and the sadness in his heart became even stronger.
"Ah..." A soft sigh came from Huan Yin's mouth. And when his eyes inadvertently swept across the corner of the skeleton's robe, a warm emerald green light reflected in his eyes.
