The Chosen System: Counterattack with Husband
Chapter 723: The True Face Under the Black Mist
The stone bricks of the four sacred beasts on the stone gate seemed to be moved by an invisible hand. After becoming complete, they slowly rotated in a clockwise direction.
As the teeth-grinding sound of stones rubbing against each other was heard, the four sacred beasts returned to their respective guarding positions.
Then, the four bricks collapsed inwards an inch at the same time, as if they were embedded in some hidden groove, and there was a sound of mechanical fitting that could be clearly heard by everyone present.
The darkness inside the stone gate that seemed to never dissipate began to "flow" like life under the gaze of more than thirty pairs of eyes.
Yes, flow.
The darkness that seemed to contain danger just now turned into countless black mists that were visible to the naked eye, tangible and tangible, and slowly faded from the center to both sides in the shape of water, like a black tide whose momentum had waned, gradually revealing the existence beneath the darkness.
At first, the black mist seemed to be struggling and unwilling to dissipate, but there seemed to be some irresistible vortex of power on both sides that swallowed up the black mist and pulled it out bit by bit.
Soon, the black fog was sucked away, leaving only some ribbon-like gray-black fog lingering in the air.
Everyone in the treasure hunting team saw it clearly.
Beneath the darkness that seemed impenetrable just now, there was a narrow path that was much narrower than the corridor and could barely accommodate three people walking side by side.
The black fog lingered above the path, looking like simple darkness, but more like someone's obsession of not wanting to leave.
When Xu Yiyu saw the black fog dissipate, he raised his foot and was about to walk through the stone gate, but was stopped in time by Tianlin who was standing beside him.
"Miss Yi Yu, you have to wait a moment."
As soon as Tianlin finished speaking, the black fog hovering above the path seemed to have a spirit. In an instant, it turned into countless thin lines of fog, which shot to both sides of the road as if attracted by some force.
Then, countless small clusters of fire suddenly ignited on both sides of the narrow path, as if activated by the remaining black fog, allowing Xu Yiyu to see the appearance of the path clearly.
Small clusters of fire ignited the flame wall lamps on both sides of the road. Just like the plots that have appeared in countless adventure novels, countless flame wall lamps lit up one after another along this road with no clear end, as if they were the guidance of the owner of this place, or like the summons of a devil, or even more like a silent warning to the newcomers.
Witnessing this overly fantastic scene with his own eyes, even Xu Yiyu, who had a system, couldn't help but open his mouth in shock.
No, did I and my teammates travel to some fairy world together?
Why did everything that just happened seem so unreal?
If the phenomenon of the black fog being extracted can be explained by aerodynamics, then what are the many flame wall lamps on both sides of the road that are ignited by the black fog for lighting?
Did more than thirty of them have their eyes dazzled?
Can this mysterious underground palace really be explained by the knowledge of humans on Blue Planet?
The more than 30 members of the treasure hunting team stared at each other for a long time, rubbing their eyes from time to time. Compared with the team leader Xu Yiyu, they could not believe what had just happened before their eyes.
Could it be that they really have traveled through time into an adventure novel and were about to start this adventure copy by experiencing it for themselves?
Xu Yiyu finally calmed down and looked at Tianlin with some disbelief. Tianlin had an expression of "it should be so" on his face, and his facial features and expression were subtly distorted and twitching.
Could it be that this assistant of mine, who usually doesn't show off, already knows what's behind this black fog?
Faced with the complicated expression of the host at this moment, Tianlin just nodded slightly to Xu Yiyu, without even moving his eyebrows.
"Miss Yi Yu, and everyone else, I have to lead you to the path behind this stone door. And just like Mr. Jiu said, if you make a wrong step here, you may pay with your life."
After Tianlin said this, many people in the treasure hunting team became nervous.
Everyone of them knew that Assistant Xu Yiyu was nearly omnipotent, but they didn't know that he could actually see through this mysterious underground palace that they were all visiting for the first time?
Jiu's gaze extended along the passage into the distance, but apart from the wall lamps on both sides of the road for lighting, he could not see clearly what was at the end of the road.
Although this was a place he had been to once, the road behind the stone gate was an area he and his teammates had never set foot on before.
This was definitely not the road behind the stone gate at that time.
In other words, everything that happened today was a first-time experience for him and all the members of the treasure hunting team.
Tianlin walked up to Xu Yiyu and saluted his host with his hands on his chest in an elegant manner.
"Miss Yi Yu, I will enter the stone gate first and walk forward at a frequency of ten steps at a time. You and the others please follow behind me and make sure to step on the square brick I am walking on with every step. Do not touch anything else in the passage, including the flame wall lamp."
"Okay, you lead the way, and remember to walk a little slower."
After Xu Yiyu gave this instruction, he gave up the seat at the main entrance to Tianlin and retreated to the vicinity of the other members of the treasure hunting team.
The team members had no objection to Tianlin's approach. After all, Jiu had reminded everyone in advance that every step behind the stone gate was not easy to take. Having the most capable person explore the way could also avoid some possible dangerous situations.
Xu Yiyu repeated to his companions what Tianlin had just said. After making sure that everyone understood the message, he made a "let's go" gesture to Tianlin.
Tianlin nodded calmly and took his first step slowly and carefully.
It would be easy for him to pass through this road safely with his ability, but if he wanted to ensure the safety of Miss Yi Yu and her companions, he had to be more cautious.
After all, the way he "walks" this path may be different from the way any of them walk this path, and he is the only one who can do it.
What he had to do now was to walk this path calmly and safely using the steps that an ordinary human could walk.
Tianlin walked very slowly for the first ten steps after entering the stone gate. Xu Yiyu, who had a photographic memory, also memorized the locations of his ten steps firmly in his mind, so as to set an example for his companions behind him.
Ten steps might be a bit difficult for people with poor memory, so she would walk slower than Tianlin, stopping every five steps to see if the next companion stepped in the correct position.
Gu Yue was watching Tian Lin take these ten steps. His eyes suddenly lit up and the corners of his lips curled up slightly, as if he had seen something interesting.
It turns out that Mr. Tianlin's footwork is in line with the Taoist Qimen Dunjia and Eight Gates.
If this narrow road with no end in sight is divided into many areas, then every step taken by this omnipotent assistant will be on the only escape route that will not be exposed to any crisis, thus cutting off everyone's chance of coming into contact with crisis.
He, Gu, didn't know whether he should marvel at the magical powers of the owner of this place, or be surprised that Tianlin, who seemed to have nothing to do with Taoism, actually knew all this.
Even Gu Yue himself, without observation and calculation, did not dare to say that he could take every step correctly.
