Xuanhuo Altar.

Although it is a wooden door, it still feels heavy when you hold it. Under Gui Li's force, the heavy and thick door on the Xuanhuo Altar made a muffled "squeak" sound and was slowly pushed open.

Inside the door, a faint red light shone out, and the surrounding air seemed to have risen a little higher, making it extremely hot.

Gui Li frowned, and there was a slight sweat on his forehead. He unexpectedly remembered what he had just heard on the sidelines, that the old man named Shangguan had been guarding such a hot place for nearly a hundred years. I really don't know how he could do it.

Passed.

Inside the Xuanhuo Altar, it didn't look bright. Except for a trace of red light coming from somewhere, it seemed to be more of darkness, which didn't match the scorching heat around it. Gui Li stood at the door, pondered for a moment, and finally raised his head.

The feet walked in.

With another "squeak" sound, the wooden door closed gently.

Gui Li took a deep breath, calmed down, and began to look around. Just as he had guessed when he saw the altar outside, it was indeed a huge hall, with a height of five feet. The entire hall was circular, and the walls were also

It is the same as what you see outside. It is made of red rocks without any carvings and decorations. It is simple and unpretentious. However, in the context of this huge space, it has an indescribable majesty and majesty.

I feel that only this kind of simplicity is the true highest realm of architecture.

Soon, Gui Li discovered that the red light emitting in the entire hall originated from the center of the hall. The closer to the center of the hall, the brighter the surroundings. Looking from a distance, against the red light,

It was as if a blazing flame was burning in the hall.

Gui Li stared at the "flame", and the red light shone gently, reflecting in his eyes and also illuminating Xiao Hui lying on his shoulder.

The eyes of one person and one monkey seemed to be dyed red at the same time, with red flames burning faintly.

Xiao Hui's tail swung slightly, seeming a little uneasy, and gave a low cry.

Gui Li stepped towards the "flame" in the center of the hall and walked slowly towards the depth of the red light.

As it gets closer and closer to the "flame", the surrounding air becomes hotter. At this moment, it is almost like being next to the lava underground. In Gui Li's mind, for some reason, he suddenly remembered a past event that he had forgotten for a long time.

──Under the Fire Dragon Cave, the magma lake was even hotter than now, and the pair of fox demons committed suicide by throwing themselves into the lake...

This thought flashed through his mind, and he suddenly stopped less than a foot away from the center of the hall. Xiao Hui turned his head and looked at the master.

Gui Li frowned and looked away from the flames, looking at the ground.

On the flat floor made of piled red stones, patterns suddenly appeared.

Just under Gui Li's feet, there were finger-thick carvings on the stone, extending to both sides, but they looked crooked and not even. And a foot in front of Gui Li, the same kind of scratches appeared.

Finger-thick carvings were made on the hard red stone, forming a one-foot-sized pattern.

That's a god!

A god that Gui Li had never seen or heard of before.

Vigorous carvings extend slowly on the ground, and traces of time can be seen everywhere in the corners, showing the long existence of these patterns and revealing a hint of desolation.

There is no hair on the top of the head of the god, but there are slightly curved horns like ram's horns. The face and eyebrows are similar to those of humans, but under the pair of gloomy and empty eyes, there are clearly sharp fangs in the mouth. The carver is even next to the fangs.

Several tiny holes were carved out, like dripping blood, adding a bit of ferocity and ferocity.

And the body of this god is very different from that of humans. The torso is as strong as a tiger and leopard. There are four arms on it. One hand holds a knife and the other holds a shield. The remaining two hands, one tightly grasps a painfully twisted body.

The human body seemed to be screaming to the sky; while the other hand gently held something up, dripping with blood, and it turned out to be a human heart.

The original clumsy and desolate mark suddenly became angry and unrestrained when it came here. The strength and the hatred deep in his heart seemed to burst out all of a sudden. Gui Li actually felt that madness so clearly and incredibly, at this moment

Rising from the traces.

The gentle carvings became intense in an instant, flying down from the torso, blending into the lower body of the vicious god, turning into a blazing flame. The red light shone brightly, and there seemed to be a hint of a sinister smile on the corner of the god's mouth, as if he was about to break through the ground.

It's like a resurrection!

Gui Li took a deep breath, almost subconsciously. In his mind, he combined the sculptor and the person who built the altar into one. He never expected that there would be such a great master and a genius with such uncanny workmanship in the world!

Just one picture seems to have taken away all the good fortune in the world!

The scratches were still extending on the ground. Gui Li couldn't help but walk to the side, gradually discovering the second statue, then the third statue. Finally, after circling around the red flame in the center, he had a total of

He discovered the images of eight gods carved on the ground. None of them were the same, but Gui Li was almost certain that the images carved on the ground were all fierce gods.

In these images, people have completely become sacrifices to these gods, just like food. The whole hall is filled with solemnity at this moment. It seems that with the discovery of these images, some evil creature is roaring in the dark.

.

And on the periphery of these fierce god images, there was a notch that wrapped them all, but it was not a complete circle. Sometimes it curved inward, sometimes it rolled outward, and Gui Li couldn't understand it for a while.

At this moment, he returned to the first fierce god pattern. After taking a deep look at the vicious god, he raised his head, and the burning "flame" appeared in front of his eyes again.

Suddenly, there was a "buzz" in his mind, and something seemed to surge up, a desire, a blood-devouring desire, so familiar that it surged into his heart. Almost at the same time, the images of vicious gods around him suddenly seemed to come to life.

General, vaguely swaying in front of his eyes.

The soul-eating soul hidden at hand gradually began to light up through the sleeves of his robe.

Gui Li's breathing gradually became a little heavy. Suddenly, he shook his head heavily, forcing himself to calm down, and then slowly walked towards the flame in the center.

However, he forgot to look at the monkey Xiao Hui lying on his shoulder.

In the pair of monkey eyes, the golden light appeared again, but behind the gold, there was more red light, with the same crazy blood-devouring color as Gui Li's eyes, gradually becoming brighter and dazzling, filling the air

its eyes.

The distance of ten feet was not very far, and Gui Li quickly approached the red light source in the center of the hall.

At this moment, he had discovered that the eight stone carvings of gods he had just seen were all surrounding this light source, and the heads of the statues were all facing here. At this time, the surrounding temperature was already extremely hot. If ordinary people were here, they would not even be able to see the light.

I can no longer breathe.

Gui Li forced himself to suppress the blood-devouring impulses in his heart, and looked through the red light towards the light source.

A stone well-like thing, thin at the top and thick at the bottom, appeared in the center of the hall. It was three feet high and no more than two feet in diameter. Like the stones on the ground, it was made of the same red rock.

But on the flat surface of the well, there is a white and transparent stone that is as clear as crystal. It seems to be a circle, but if you look closely, you will find that there are countless facets on it, ranging in size, and it is extremely bright.

The light flows and covers it.

The red light that was continuously emitted from the well passed through this crystal-like stone. The light was refracted layer by layer, and it seemed that there was a trace of blood flowing in it. And these rays of light condensed into one in the space three feet above the stone.

The red light group was exactly the burning flame that Gui Li saw from a distance just now, and the light source in the entire hall also came from here.

Looking at this mysterious and magical sight, Gui Li slowly approached the well, approached the bright and transparent stone, and looked down.

A familiar scene came into his eyes. The hot magma was roaring below, like a furious ocean tide, constantly rising and receding. The splashing magma hit the hard rock wall, and the silk was swayed.

Silk.

This mysterious fire altar was actually built on top of a volcano crater that seemed to be about to erupt.

Gui Li felt agitated in his heart, clenching his fists involuntarily, and even his breathing became heavier. Ever since he approached these fierce stone carvings on the ground, it seemed that these unheard and unseen images had triggered violence in his heart, or perhaps these

The god is simply a cruel evil god. The bloodthirsty murderous intention in his heart is getting stronger and stronger, but the strange thing is that he can remain conscious, unlike usual where he almost falls into madness.

It's just that although others are awake, the pain caused by the strong violent energy in the body is even more severe. If someone is standing nearby, they can see the red light in Gui Li's eyes at this moment, almost...

Like an evil ghost.

Just when Gui Liqiang was supporting himself, Xiao Hui on his shoulder suddenly squeaked twice, jumped down, and fell straight onto the strange rock.

Gui Li was shocked. There was faint blood-red light flowing in this strange stone. Even though he had studied the Demonic Book for many years, he still felt that the evil power in it was extraordinary. He hurriedly reached out to intercept it and said urgently: "Xiao Hui, be careful!"

But after all, Xiao Hui jumped down suddenly, and Gui Li reacted a little later, so his grasp was in vain. Xiao Hui was seen stretching his body in mid-air, but his eyes were flashing red like Gui Li's. It was too late at that time.

Quickly, in a blink of an eye, Xiao Hui had landed on the strange stone, making a soft "bang" sound.

In an instant, the red light refracted from the volcanic well through the layers of strange rocks was blocked by Xiao Hui. Almost at the same time, the red light in the mid-air condensed into a red light group that was almost like a flame, because

When the light source is lost, it disappears immediately.

Suddenly, the whole world seemed to be quiet.

In just a blink of an eye, the entire altar hall completely lost its light, and darkness enveloped all places.

Gui Li held his breath and stared at Xiao Hui blankly.

It was lying on that strange stone, seemingly fine for the time being. The red light reflected in the well was blocked by it at the moment and reflected on its belly, every detail of it reflected.

The red light flowed like blood, flashing slightly on its body. Xiao Hui's body slowly began to make sounds, like the harsh sound of bones and joints knocking.

Kaka, kaka...

Gui Li took a step forward and stared at Xiao Hui, with a vague premonition in his heart.

Xiao Hui slowly turned his head, and his eyes suddenly turned completely red, so dazzling in the dark!

The next moment, a sudden change occurred!

In the depths of the main hall, shrouded in darkness, a desolate roar suddenly came. The fierce stone carvings on the ground around them emitted red light at the same time, and lit up one after another.

When the eighth stone carving of the fierce god also lit up, the desolate roar echoing in the hall had turned into a shrill scream, filling the entire space. I don't know when, the wind began to rotate above the strict hall.

Gui Li picked up Xiao Hui and held him close to him. Almost at the same time, there was a loud roar, and all the stone carvings shined brightly. In an instant, the red light seemed to become a tangible thing, and from the fierce stone carvings,

Soaring into the sky, while maintaining the original appearance of the stone carving, it transformed into a plane made of condensed red light and rose into the air.

One after another, the fierce gods turned into red light and condensed in the mid-air. At this moment, Gui Li finally saw the curved stone carvings surrounding the stone carvings of the fierce gods.
