Chapter 137 - Ancient altar

The gravel rolled down, a large hole of dozens of meters was dug in the rock formation below the valley, and a giant bear figure emerged.

"what!"

There is actually a cave in the ground. What appears in front of Zhao Xiong is a huge empty underground space, hundreds of meters deep from the ground.

Zhao Xiong was quite curious, not that he had never seen the world, but that it was incredible. After all, this area was the source of a major earthquake, and this underground space was not collapsed and could still be completely preserved.

However, there is a mysterious power in this world, which cannot be viewed with common sense. Perhaps it is the creature sleeping below that shelters here.

Zhao Xiong quickly stopped worrying about this, and looked around to check the situation here.

The huge underground space is extremely empty, without any buildings and obstacles, larger than two football fields combined.

At a glance, there is no sign of any living beings here. Zhao Xiong thought that when he came here, he would see a huge monster figure.

As a result, there was nothing in this underground space, not even the wind element that came down earlier than him. If it weren't for the life fluctuations of unknown creatures everywhere, Zhao Xiong would think that he had come to the wrong place.

As long as you come, you can only walk aimlessly here to see if you can find some information.

If there is a chance to kill the sleeping creature, it would be even better. As the owner of several fierce monsters, thinking about it, I know that it must be a powerful existence.

The openness of the underground space made the exploration proceed quickly, and it didn't take long for Zhao Xiong to come to the end of this underground space.

There is no path ahead, a steep cliff separates it from the mountains in the distance, and below is a bottomless black abyss.

It was extremely dark, and it seemed that jumping from here could go straight to the depths of the earth.

Zhao Xiong lowered his head and looked down, revealing a terrifying power in the abyss.

The sleeping creature is below the abyss, and the wind element life has a high probability of going below.

And with the vaguely sensed position of the link, Zhao Xiong has already guessed who the intruder who made the wind element pale.

"True."

Zhao Xiong admires Little Loli's death-defying behavior.

Unexpectedly, he ran to other people's lair without saying a word, not afraid of being wiped out by others.

But in the final analysis, Zhao Xiong was not in a hurry, and there was no need to worry about the safety of Little Loli.

After walking along the cliff for a while, I finally found that an altar made of rocks stood on a cliff.

The altar was only a few meters high, covered with a large amount of dust, buried and covered in dust, and almost integrated with the surrounding rocks, which was inconspicuous for a beast over twenty meters tall.

If you don't emit perception and observe the surrounding, you may not be able to notice it.

A blast of air was set off, blowing off the dust on the altar, the gravel rolled down, and the dust flew up.

This altar seems to have a long history, and it seems to have stood here a long, long time ago, not a product that appeared after the cataclysm.

"Is it possible that in ancient times someone performed a ceremony here to sacrifice to the creatures below?"

Zhao Xiong was very surprised.

On the ancient altar, in addition to the traces that have long been dried up and blackened, there are also patterns carved on the surrounding stone slabs.

There are dozens of patterns and a lot of content, some of which are describing a sacrifice ceremony, and some are more abstract giants, countless times taller than tiny humans, like gods.

The pattern became blurred with the passage of the world, Zhao Xiong watched it for a long time, and finally got a general information.

It seems that the ancestors in ancient times accidentally broke into this place and discovered this huge underground space.

Then they received an inexplicable message, or an oracle, that there was a **** sleeping under this abyss.

So under the guidance of the oracle, this group of people built an altar here and started the ancient mission of passing on from generation to generation.

Every once in a while, human beings will bring sacrifices to come here and perform sacrifice rituals.

The purpose is to please the gods.

As long as the sacrifice ceremony is successfully completed, the gods will continue to sleep under the abyss.

But if the ritual fails, the gods will wake up and destroy the world.

For a long time, sacrificial ceremonies have been carried out here again and again, and the dry marks on the altar are the blood left by the previous sacrifices.

"interesting."

Zhao Xiong, who read the contents of the slate, was amazed. He never expected that the sleeping creatures under the abyss could be related to the ancient ancestors.

A group of people has been passed down from generation to generation, and they come here every once in a while to hold sacrificial ceremonies.

Although Zhao Xiong believed from the beginning that this creature that could attract the attention of several councils must be extremely powerful,

But now it seems that this creature is even older than he imagined, and it has existed here for at least a thousand years.

Coupled with the protection of fierce-level creatures, it is very likely that it is really a powerful existence like ancient gods.

Zhao Xiong became cautious, and was also thinking about how much impact it would have on the world if this creature was awakened.

However, although it recognizes the power of this creature, it does not feel that it is of any use to the sacrifice ceremony of the ancestors.

How could the sacrifice of a few sacrifices make the terrifying creatures of the world extinction level continue to sleep, even the fierce monsters cannot be satisfied.

What's more, looking at the dusty traces on the altar, this altar has been abandoned for a long time, and there has been no one here for at least a hundred years. It is very likely that the inheritance of the group of people has been cut off, which has stopped the sacrificial ceremony, and no one has come here. Sacrifice again.

However, this explains the problem, because during this period of time, the underground creatures did not wake up because of the sacrificial fault, and were not ready to be born until today.

Obviously, the so-called sacrifice is just a joke, a stupid hoax.

The creatures below have been waiting for the opportunity to wake up, which may be related to the recovery of spiritual energy or the fire, but it has nothing to do with whether the sacrifice ceremony is held on time or not.

Even if the altar is not abandoned, it is still in operation, it will come out when it is time to come out.

The ancients thought too much, they thought it was like this, but using human notions to put things on gods is ridiculous in itself.

"How strong is it?"

After reading the message left on the altar, Zhao Xiong retracted his gaze.

There is only this solitary altar in this underground space, nothing else, only the abyss ahead.

The dark abyss is like a gulf, bottomless, and no one knows what is hidden.

But Zhao Xiong decided to go down and have a look.

The main event should be under the abyss, and the wind element is probably going down to stop the little loli's stealing behavior.

No matter what kind of existence that sleeping creature is, as long as you get to the bottom of the abyss, you should be able to see it.
