Chapter 113 Blood Throne, Ancient King!
…………
After stopping here, Kyogre waved his fins, and then a tiny crack appeared here.
"You can't fly, come and help." Kyogre directly called Groudon to come and help with the work.
"Here I am. Also, don't tell me I can't fly, you stupid fathead."
"You can't fly. Did I say anything wrong about you? Facts speak louder than words. Stop making excuses!"
While the two divine beasts, one red and one blue, were bickering with each other, a space crack large enough for a person to pass through had already opened up.
"Come in, the passage to the mausoleum is here." Kyogre said to Zhao Tingxi.
"it is good!"
Under the leadership of Kyogre, Zhao Tingxi entered the space crack, and Groudon followed behind them.
However, what Zhao Tingxi and the others didn't know was that a few minutes after they entered, a man in military uniform also came here. After the man in military uniform took out a compass and observed for a while, he also drilled into the space crack.
Obviously, this is Groudon's problem. It doesn't have the good habit of closing the door...
…………
After entering the space crack, Zhao Tingxi discovered that there was actually a bridge here, and the other end of the bridge was hidden in endless darkness.
"This bridge should lead to the altar of the mausoleum..."
Zhao Tingxi was very fast and now he could see the altar.
The altar is in the shape of an ice crown, and the stone steps below are enormous, several times taller than a person. The steps are not for people to climb at all, but more like for gods and giants to climb.
When you look at it from a distance, there are red silk hanging down from the altar, bunches one after another, distributed at the corners of each giant step. When you get closer, you realize that the red hanging silk is not silk at all, but sticky. At a certain level, the blood waterfall is flowing down.
At the edges and corners, a dragon's head is built. The blood of the waterfall spits out from the dragon's mouth and falls high. You can also hear the rumbling sound like a waterfall.
As you go up the long stone staircase, the entire altar begins to shrink in layers. The steps get narrower as you go up, and gradually it reaches the point where people can step across it in one step.
Zhao Tingxi stepped forward quickly and looked towards the top of the altar which was covered with white jade. Sure enough, there was a huge piece of jade in the center!
The jadeite is red and crystal clear, with sharp edges and corners. It looks like countless swords inserted upside down to form an awe-inspiring king's throne...
This is the Blood Throne!
Then the person sitting on the Blood Throne must be the ancient king - Ying Zheng!
Zhao Tingxi took a deep breath and walked forward.
There was no one on the Blood Throne, only a black armor robe standing on it. Although this black armor robe was made a thousand years ago, it still reflected the cold light.
"Be careful, there is a remnant soul inside this armor. Although it is not strong to me, it is very dangerous to you." Kyogre stood in front of Zhao Tingxi.
"I know." Zhao Tingxi stared at the ancient royal armor in front of him.
At this moment, the armor seemed to sense something, and the scales stretched out, making a rustling sound. A certain bewitching voice echoed in Zhao Tingxi's ears. "I have been sealed for countless years, and finally I have a successor. The later ones will ascend the throne and put on my armor, and they will inherit my power and everything."
Hearing this, Zhao Tingxi sneered. After so many years of brewing, the ancient king's armor had indeed given birth to an evil soul that attempted to devour the souls of the living to complete itself.
At the moment, the power exerted by the remnant evil soul is very weak. After all, the entire armor itself is a seal, which converts all the essence of the ancient king into a huge dark light and stores it, making it harmless.
If the person who came here was a forbidden spell caster of the undead, it would be the greatest opportunity in history.
With the power of forbidden spells, he could easily control and refine this dark energy and instantly become an emperor-level combat power like Hua Zhanhong.
But for ordinary mages, it is a disaster, it is easy to lose control and degenerate into a demon. For example, Fang Gu in the original novel was swallowed up by the ancient king armor because of his lack of strength.
As for how Zhan Kong controlled the ancient king's armor, Zhao Tingxi was not sure.
"Grund, Kyogre, I plan to use this armor for my own benefit. But this armor definitely has the ability to devour me, so I hope you two can protect me so that I can successfully use this armor for my own benefit. By then, I will have the combat power of an emperor." Zhao Tingxi said to Groudon and Kyogre with a serious face.
"understand!"
Groudon and Kyogre both nodded heavily.
If Zhao Tingxi could obtain the power of the armor, it would be good for both of them. At the very least, when Zhao Tingxi went to subdue Rayquaza in the future, they could beat him up severely to vent their hatred for being pressed and rubbed by Rayquaza for so many years.
Moreover, the stronger Zhao Tingxi becomes, the better it is for them.
Soon, Zhao Tingxi took out the ruby and sapphire. After injecting energy into them, the ruby and sapphire became bigger, from the size of a bean to the size of a fist. Then they floated behind Zhao Tingxi.
Rubies and sapphires have a certain effect of protecting the soul, which Zhao Tingxi accidentally discovered when he was attacked by a ghost on the battlefield. Although he didn't know how big the effect would be, Zhao Tingxi felt that the effect should not be too bad.
After getting ready, Zhao Tingxi began to approach the armor in front of him. For some reason, although the armor was empty, Zhao Tingxi could feel a pair of eyes like the abyss staring at him from inside the armor cap.
Zhao Tingxi walked forward slowly.
What's weird is that the closer Zhao Tingxi gets, the more frequently the voice appears in its mind, and it keeps tempting Zhao Tingxi's deepest desires.
"Don't you want to be stronger, to have the power to contend with everything in the world? Put on this armor, and you will control the entire Undead Empire! You are the Undead Emperor! You are the only one in heaven and on earth!"
This voice appeared silently in Zhao Tingxi's mind, constantly arousing Zhao Tingxi's deepest desires and seducing Zhao Tingxi over.
And Zhao Tingxi kept getting closer to it.
With every step forward, the desire in his heart doubled, until he rushed towards the armor in mad excitement and became one with it!
If one's heart is not firm, or if there is greed deep in one's heart, one would have been completely swallowed up by the armor long ago.
However, under the protection of ruby and sapphire, Zhao Tingxi was not bewitched.
Zhao Tingxi gave a look to the two mythical beasts behind him and then placed his hands on his armor.
