Chapter 788: The Eerie Sense of Imagery

~7 min read 1,273 words

Blazing flames.

Ignited the entire bloody canyon.

The great battle between these blood monkeys and humans could no longer be stopped.

All kinds of miserable cries and all kinds of intense fighting filled this space.

The scene was chaotic and incomparably bloody.

Either a few blood monkeys would tear a person apart together.

Or people would join forces to beat a blood monkey to death, or throw it down into the abyss.

Fresh blood spurted out; almost everyone's face was covered in blood, and almost everyone's body was covered in blood.

This was a white-hot battle.

This was also the first time these soldiers had engaged in such a struggle and slaughter with this strange species.

But humans are, after all, humans.

Remember the website rg

Monkeys are, after all, just monkeys.

Although they held some advantages in physique, once that terrifying mystery vanished, it was not difficult for humans to deal with them. If they were fierce, then we would have several people deal with one; if they advanced, we would retreat, and if they retreated, we would advance. Human wisdom displayed its unique advantages at this moment. Added to the threat of the flames, how could these blood monkeys still be their match?

But there were too many.

There were truly too many.

A series of miserable cries.

Meant that these blood monkeys were being knocked down into the abyss by the people one by one.

Thus, this battle lasted for almost several hours.

Several hours.

Liu Zheng took a glance, and it was hard to calculate exactly how many of these monkeys there were.

But fortunately, there were also many people on the cliff.

The scene continued on.

It was unknown how much time had passed before the sounds outside gradually ceased.

People began to be exhausted, then replaced by another group. The tired people began to return to the collapsed passage to rest.

One wave after another.

But at least, they had won.

"Young Master!"

Liu Zheng and the others naturally did not need to take action themselves. After the last shrill sound rang out, they came out together, and they were gone. Those monkeys were all gone. Of course, there were also far fewer people at this time—those who died outright, those devoured by the blood monkeys, those dragged by the blood monkeys into the abyss together, and those who died of severe injuries...

The scene was somewhat tragic.

People were in high spirits.

Liu Zheng also smiled slightly.

"My Lord!"

"My Lord, this group of beasts is all dead, hahahaha!"

His heart tightened; regardless, Li Xuanya had saved his life.

"Is there no Method?"

"How is the Eldest Princess's injury?"

Just a moment ago, he had handed Li Xuanya over to a physician accompanying the team. Upon hearing this, the physician looked pessimistic: "My Lord, life hangs by a thread."

"Treat her well. If she wakes up, there will be a heavy reward!"

"Yes!"

The physician said: "The Eldest Princess has fallen into a coma. Whether she can wake up depends entirely on her own willpower."

Liu Zheng sighed in his heart.

Down here...

Is it a Huoshan?

After arranging matters for Li Xuanya, Liu Zheng quietly looked at this Stone Pillar.

Just a moment ago, this Stone Pillar had been covered in dense, countless blood monkeys, but they were gone now. However, the bloodstains of various colors and various degrees of freshness on the Stone Pillar were still shocking to behold.

"Climb up!"

Liu Zheng suddenly shouted.

Liu Zheng had almost confirmed his guess.

Although he did not know what exactly this mysterious formation blood sacrifice that Tuolei had set up was about, if it were these god-obsessed things, it would indeed not be strange for a Huoshan to appear below.

The soldiers were fine; what kind of battle formations had they not seen?

But there were still many wealthy people, rich merchants, servants, and ordinary people here at this time.

Everyone had long known that to leave this place, the only way was to climb up this Stone Pillar. But when people saw the sticky blood on the Stone Pillar, they all felt like vomiting. And they still had to climb it?

It was enough to make one sick to death!

"Young Master, Young Master, I will go first."

Seeing that Liu Zheng wanted to go first, Pei Qianyun became anxious.

"If you don't want to die, you must climb!"

Liu Zheng gave the order decisively.

Disgusting!

When his hand touched the Stone Pillar, the sticky sensation truly made one want to vomit for a while.

To make it easier to climb this Stone Pillar, they took out many iron chains and ropes, then set up a makeshift bridge with the cliffside. This allowed people to cross easily, whether by walking or climbing.

Pei Qianyun led the way, Liu Zheng followed, Wu Zhen was third, and the Prince of Wei, the Prince of Yong, and Tie Mucheng followed behind them.

But there was no Method.

They still had to climb!

Especially when thinking that for hundreds of years, blood had been flowing down this Stone Pillar—human blood, monkey blood, and possibly even the blood of other creatures.

It was likely that this Stone Pillar already had a thick layer of dried blood on it.

It was too disgusting!

One had to know that these blood monkeys, unable to leave this Stone Pillar, spent their entire lives on it, so besides essential blood, there would also be their excrement on it.

Enduring the pungent smell of the Stone Pillar, Liu Zheng felt nearly dizzy.

It was too foul-smelling!

Liu Zheng even regretted not preparing a Mask for himself.

People followed behind one after another.

Hmm.

It was even more disgusting.

But after all, with the lubrication of various kinds of blood, the Stone Pillar was still very slippery; a very fat wealthy merchant failed to get a firm grip and fell into the abyss with a miserable cry, which made many people feel a chill in their hearts.

Cautiously.

Fortunately, although this Stone Pillar did not look like much from the outside, its surface was uneven, which provided the conditions for people to climb.

"Everyone be careful! Take it slow!"

A moment ago, it was monkeys climbing on this.

But at this moment, it was completely covered with people.

This Stone Pillar could not be seen to the end at a glance.

This scene was undoubtedly soul-shaking.

Everyone stopped, looking at each other, not understanding what was going on.

Eerie!

When this scene appeared in Liu Zheng's mind, his expression suddenly changed.

"Stop!"

Eerie!

He still felt that this scene truly had an eerie feeling to it!

The scene was very quiet; no one spoke.

Liu Zheng's breathing, however, became increasingly heavy.

Starting to replace the blood monkeys, appearing on the Stone Pillar.

Densely packed.

Yes.

People.

Because it was too vivid!

Humans, replacing the blood monkeys, started climbing up.

He had a feeling.

This scene seemed to have been deliberately designed by someone!

An ancient and mysterious ritual.

Liu Zheng looked at Wu Zhen behind him.

Climbing cautiously, even climbing with a kind of piety.

As if they were completing some kind of ritual.

Then, what exactly was waiting for them up there?

This Stone Pillar.

Wu Zhen also frowned.

He actually had this feeling too.

But what if they didn't climb?

What other direction could they choose?

Should they continue to climb or not?

If they continued to climb, would there still be such danger?

Suddenly.

Liu Zheng and Wu Zhen shuddered at the same time.

Then, they looked down into the abyss simultaneously.
