Chapter 301: Ancient Baby

"Hahaha," Xing Lie laughed, "Brother Gu, you are really a man of character! My grandfather would be very happy if he knew that you care about him so much. How about this, when our expedition is over, I will take you to see him?"

"That's great!" Gu Sheng's eyes lit up, "I can't ask for a visit to Senior Xing Tian in person!"

When they were drunk, Gu Sheng, Xing Lie, Wu Tianxiong, Kou Hai and Ying Tianxing decided to go to the ancient mining area, the legendary mysterious and terrifying area, to explore the unknown treasures and opportunities.

The five people came to the entrance of the mine, but saw the crowd rushing out like a tide, with fear and despair on their faces.

"Ancient creatures have appeared!"

"Run, people are dead, many people are dead!"

"Is that a ghost cry? It's too scary!"

...

In the chaotic shouting, there are also some strong people going upstream, either to challenge themselves or to explore the secrets behind the ancient creatures.

Gu Sheng and the other five smiled at each other, with determination and fearlessness in their eyes. They were not ordinary miners. For them, the ancient creatures were not taboos that could not be touched.

"Let's go in and take a look." Gu Sheng took the lead and stepped into the mining area first.

Entering the core area of ​​the mining area, the scene in front of them shocked the five people. The corpses lying in all directions and the blood all over the ground seemed to be telling the tragic battle that had just happened.

"Everyone be careful and be alert at any time." Gu Sheng reminded.

At this moment, a loud cry broke through the sky, as if a baby was crying. But this cry contained a powerful breath. As the cry rose and fell, waves of lives were ruthlessly harvested.

The red vine demon soul on Gu Sheng's body spontaneously transformed into a golden seed, and then quickly evolved into a big bell, covering the five people tightly. The sound like a huge bell kept echoing, forming an indestructible defense.

Other strong men suffered heavy casualties, even those in the Seabed Realm were bloody and crawling with difficulty.

They tried to flee the scene, but the invisible force followed them everywhere. The cultivators below the Seabed Realm were directly turned into blood mist and powder, without even a chance to struggle.

"What the hell is this? The cry is so terrifying!" Xing Lie exclaimed.

"I don't know, but it's definitely not something we can fight against." Wu Tianxiong said solemnly, "Brother Gu, what should we do now?"

Gu Sheng stared at the front, with a firm light flashing in his eyes: "We can't retreat. Since we are here, we must find out. Everyone, follow me and move forward slowly."

The five people moved forward cautiously, and every step was extremely difficult. The invisible force seemed to be able to penetrate all defenses and go straight to the depths of their hearts.

But Gu Sheng seemed to be unaffected. The ancient holy body on his body started to operate, and the golden grid-like golden light flowed all over his body. He slapped out golden palms and golden fists, trying to resist the invisible force.

"Brother Gu's ancient holy body is indeed extraordinary!" Kou Hai exclaimed.

"Yes, otherwise we would have been unable to hold on." Ying Tianxing also sighed.

Under the leadership of Gu Sheng, the five people moved forward with difficulty. They saw countless tragic scenes and heard countless desperate cries. But they did not give up, because they knew that only by persisting could they find the truth behind it.

Finally, they came to the deepest part of the mining area. There was a huge cave there, and bursts of baby crying came from the cave. Although the voice was childish, it contained the power to destroy the world.

The five people walked into the cave carefully, and saw a huge stone platform in the center of the cave, on which lay a baby. The baby exuded a strong light all over his body, like a little sun. His cry kept echoing in the cave, filling the whole cave with a terrifying atmosphere.

"Is this the ancient creature?" Wu Tianxiong said in disbelief, his eyes widened, "It's actually a baby?"

"Don't underestimate this baby, his power is probably stronger than all of us combined." Gu Sheng reminded, "Everyone be careful."

The five people moved slowly around the stone platform, trying to find a breakthrough. But the baby seemed to be able to sense their presence, crying louder and louder, and his power became stronger and stronger.

Suddenly, an invisible force burst out from the baby and rushed straight towards the five people. The five people tried to resist, but were instantly knocked out by the force.

"Puff!"

The five people fell heavily to the ground, bleeding from the corners of their mouths. They struggled to stand up, but found that the force had locked them firmly and they could not escape at all.

"What should we do? Are we going to die here?" Xing Lie said in despair.

"No, we can't give up." Gu Sheng struggled to stand up, "Everyone, join me, attack the baby with all your strength, maybe we can break this deadlock."

The five people looked at each other and nodded in agreement. They knew that this was their only chance.

So, the five of them joined forces to launch an attack. Gu Sheng slapped out golden palms and golden fists; Xing Lie wielded a huge battle axe; Wu Tianxiong used the Nine Swords of Gale; Kou Hai hid in the dark and looked for opportunities; Ying Tianxing was responsible for restraining the invisible force.

The attacks of the five people converged into a powerful beam and went straight to the baby. The baby seemed to feel the coming of the crisis and cried even louder.

"Boom!"

After a loud bang, the five people's attacks successfully hit the baby. But to their surprise, the baby was not defeated, but burst out with even more powerful power.

The power instantly knocked the five people out again and fell heavily to the ground. The five people struggled to stand up, but found that their bodies had lost consciousness and it became extremely difficult to move.

The mysterious macaque in the strange stone in the Taikoo mining area

When the five people woke up from their coma, they were surprised to find that the baby exuding a terrifying aura had disappeared.

"This... what's going on?" Xing Lie rubbed his eyes and looked around in disbelief.

"Where is the baby? Why did it suddenly disappear?" Kou Hai also looked around in confusion.

"Could it be that he crawled away by himself?" Ying Tianxing said half-jokingly, but then shook his head, "Impossible, such a powerful existence, how could it crawl away?"

Several people talked about it, but none of them could explain this bizarre phenomenon.

Gu Sheng frowned and fell into deep thought. He always felt that the appearance and disappearance of this baby were too strange, as if there was a bigger secret behind it.

"Thanks to Brother Gu's Red Vine Demon Soul!" Wu Tianxiong sighed, "If it weren't for the defensive bell formed by the Red Vine Demon Soul, we would have turned into blood mist like those corpses."

"Yes, Brother Gu's Red Vine Demon Soul is really amazing." Ying Tianxing also admired sincerely, "It can actually turn back into a seed and evolve into a bell. This is simply unheard of!"

Facing everyone's admiration, Gu Sheng just smiled slightly and didn't say much. He knew that although the Red Vine Demon Soul was powerful, it was not omnipotent. This time, they were able to escape the disaster, more relying on the unity and cooperation of the five of them.

After some discussion, the five decided to continue exploring deeper into the mining area. They walked along the place with strong breath and soon found some abnormal raw stones.

Some creatures were frozen in these raw stones. Although they were motionless, they exuded a strong breath. The five people approached one of the rough stones carefully, and saw a macaque frozen in the rough stone.

This macaque was sturdy, with thick hair, and holding a golden iron rod in his hand. The most eye-catching thing was its eyes, which were fiery red, as if they could see through all illusions and lies.

"Wow! Isn't this the legendary Sun Wukong?" Xing Lie exclaimed. Gu Sheng had told them about Journey to the West, and they all knew that Sun Wukong was powerful.

"He's still holding the golden hoop!" Gu Sheng also pondered, "This iron rod may be a treasure beyond the Xuan level!"

Hearing Gu Sheng's words, Xing Lie and others became excited. They have followed Gu Sheng for so long, and naturally they have learned some skills to identify treasures. Seeing this golden iron rod at this moment, how can they not be moved?

Gu Sheng shook his head and said, "This thing can't be touched! The legend about Sun Wukong is not groundless. It's better for us not to provoke this kind of existence."

Hearing Gu Sheng's warning, Xing Lie and others calmed down. They knew that Gu Sheng had always been cautious and steady. Since he said so, he must have his reasons.

So the five people did not touch the rough stone again, but continued to move along the place with strong aura. They found some rough stones with relatively weak aura, so they collected them and prepared to auction them at the trade fair.

In the next few days, the five people reaped a lot in the Taigu mining area. Not only did they collect a large number of precious rough stones, but they also encountered some rare spiritual herbs and spiritual beasts. Their strength was also greatly improved in this expedition.

Just as they were about to leave the Taigu mining area, they suddenly encountered a group of uninvited guests. This group of people had a strong aura and were fierce and ferocious. They were not good people at first glance.

"Boys, hand over all the treasures on you!" The big man in the lead said viciously, "Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude!"

Faced with the threats of this group of people, Gu Sheng and the other five did not retreat. They smiled at each other and showed their weapons and skills.

"Want our treasures? Then it depends on whether you have the ability!" Gu Sheng said with a sneer.

Then the five of them started a fierce battle with the group of people.

The five of them cooperated well and were not afraid of danger. They soon beat the group of people and made them flee in embarrassment.

"Haha! It's so refreshing!" Xing Lie laughed and said, "This trip to the Taikoo mining area is really fruitful!"

"Yes! Thanks to Brother Gu's leadership and everyone's unity and cooperation!" Wu Tianxiong also sighed, "This time we not only got a lot of precious raw stones and spiritual herbs and beasts, but also improved our strength and exercised our teamwork ability. It's really a big profit!"

Hearing what everyone said, Gu Sheng just smiled slightly. He knew that although this trip to the Taikoo mining area was fruitful, it was just a small episode on their road of cultivation. The road ahead is still long, and they need to work harder to go further.

"Roar~"

The five packed their bags and prepared to leave the Taikoo mining area full of mystery and danger. However, just as they were about to step out of the mining area, a thunderous roar suddenly sounded, a roar like the roar from the Netherworld, which made people tremble with fear.

"What is this sound?" Xing Lie's face suddenly changed, and he looked around nervously.

"I don't know, but it's definitely not a good thing." Wu Tianxiong said in a deep voice, holding the weapon tightly in his hand.

Gu Sheng's eyes flashed with determination. He took a deep breath, turned around and said to the four people: "You go first, I'll go check it out."

"Brother Gu, no!" Ying Tianxing hurriedly dissuaded him, "This sound is too weird, I'm afraid it's dangerous."

"Yes, Gu Sheng, let's go together." Kou Hai also said worriedly.

Gu Sheng shook his head, and a resolute smile appeared on his face: "Don't worry, I know my limits. You go out first, I'll be there soon."

After that, he didn't wait for the four people to say anything more, and his figure flashed, and he rushed in the direction where the sound came from.

The four people looked at each other, and a trace of admiration flashed in their eyes. They knew Gu Sheng's character, and once he made a decision, he would never change it easily.

Gu Sheng rushed all the way and soon came to the place where the sound came from. I saw a black afterimage floating quickly, flashing like lightning.

"Stop!" Gu Sheng shouted, releasing the red vine demon soul to chase after him.

The two came to an ancient battlefield one after the other. There were ruins everywhere, as if they had just experienced a great war. In the center of the battlefield, a black shadow stood quietly, his face unclear, exuding a terrifying cold breath.

"Who are you? Why are you here?" Gu Sheng asked vigilantly.

The black shadow did not answer, but just sneered. Then, he moved and rushed towards Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng did not dare to be careless, and immediately used the Nine Swords of Gale to meet him. The two fought fiercely, with sword energy crisscrossing and fighting hard. However, Gu Sheng soon discovered that the cultivation of this black shadow was unfathomable, at least above the third level of the seabed realm!

He was shocked in his heart, but his hands did not slow down at all. He slapped out golden palms and golden fists, and fought a desperate battle with the black shadow. However, the black shadow's skills were too weird, and every move seemed to come from the netherworld, carrying the breath of destruction.

Gu Sheng gradually felt exhausted, and his wounds became more and more, and his clothes were stained red with blood. But he still had no intention of giving up. He gritted his teeth and tried his best to deal with the black shadow man.

At this moment, the red vine demon soul suddenly showed its power, and a corrosive red light shot towards the black shadow man. The black shadow man was caught off guard and was hit by the red light, and let out a scream. Gu Sheng took the opportunity to chop the black shadow man with a sword, severely injuring him!

Just when Gu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, the black shadow man suddenly attacked and slapped Gu Sheng in the chest. Gu Sheng was hit hard, and the whole person flew backwards and fell heavily to the ground.

"Puff!" Gu Sheng spit out a mouthful of blood, his face as pale as paper. He struggled to stand up, but found that his body had lost consciousness. (End of this chapter)
