Chapter 247 Puppet Giant Soldier
"Fire Cloud Cave?" Lin Fei looked at the stone tablet standing at the bridgehead. He saw that under the three large characters, there was a line of smaller characters: "Three Emperors' Cave, Unauthorized Entry Will Be Killed!"
The Three Sovereigns of ancient times were renowned figures, certainly not the kind of frivolous individuals who merely bluffed and intimidated. Since the inscription on the stone tablet reads "Those who trespass will be killed," there must be deadly danger ahead of this bridge.
On either side of the bridge before him lay bottomless abysses, so deep that even Lin Fei's eyesight couldn't discern their exact depth. He sensed an endless danger lurking within, and anyone who dared to cross the bridge would be met with fatal peril.
Seeing Lin Fei stop in his tracks, Qin Zhongshan behind him sneered, "What's wrong? Are you scared by the words on the stone tablet?"
Lin Fei ignored Qin Zhongshan's sarcasm and stepped aside to make way for him: "Young Master Qin, please cross the bridge."
Qin Zhongshan's eye twitched rapidly. Although he wanted to use reverse psychology to provoke Lin Fei into crossing the bridge, he himself was actually afraid to cross it rashly.
The Three Sovereigns of ancient times were legendary figures; they could probably crush Qin Zhongshan with a single finger.
Qin Zhongshan snorted coldly, standing rooted to the spot, refusing to move. His meaning was clear: since no one was willing to cross the bridge first, they would just stalemate here. If he couldn't get the treasures from the Three Emperors' Ruins, then he couldn't get them either!
Lin Fei, however, had no time to waste with Qin Zhongshan here. Putting aside the other treasures in the Three Emperors Ruins, he was determined to obtain the True Dragon Origin Qi.
At that moment, Lin Fei quietly took out the Small Thousand Talisman and held it in his hand. At the same time, his figure transformed into a shooting star and quickly flew towards the other side of the bridge.
"Kid, trying to leave?" Qin Zhongshan shouted and quickly chased after them.
Just as Lin Fei was about to reach the other side of the bridge, a fiery red barrier suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking his path. The energy emanating from the barrier startled Lin Fei, and he immediately stopped, avoiding a headbutt against it.
By this time, everyone had already crossed the stone tablet and arrived on the long bridge.
Rumble, rumble...
Suddenly, the entire cave began to shake violently. From the bottomless abyss on both sides of the long bridge, a roar that seemed to come from hell resounded: "Who dares to trespass into the Three Emperors' Cave?"
The sound was like a thunderclap, echoing repeatedly within the cave, making people's eardrums ache.
The massive rocks on either side of the cave were shaken by the thunderous sound and fell into the Invincible Abyss, where they gathered together and transformed into two enormous stone figures.
From the left and right sides of the long bridge, two giant stone figures, each hundreds of feet tall, rise up, one holding a long spear and the other a giant axe.
The two stone figures had fire blazing in their hollow eyes, like endless rage.
The two stone figures, each wielding a weapon, stood suspended in mid-air on either side of the long bridge, their eyes blazing with fire as they looked down at the crowd on the bridge. They spoke slowly, their voices as cold and mechanical as ice: "Those who trespass into the Three Emperors' Cave will be killed!"
As they spoke, the two stone figures raised their weapons and hurled them at the long bridge.
Lin Fei gripped the small Thousand Talisman given to him by the Hidden Sword Elder in one hand, already prepared to flee at any moment should the situation turn unfavorable. He drew the Xuanyuan Sword in the other, intending to deal with the two stone figures in front of him first.
Just as the enormous weapons in the hands of the two stone figures were about to fall, a red light suddenly shone from the Xuanyuan Sword—just like the red light that had previously blocked the entrance to the cave.
As the red light appeared, the weapons in the hands of the two giant stone figures stopped falling, and the red light in their eyes began to flash continuously.
"Your Majesty...the Emperor...has approved..."
"This bridge... is a dead end... downwards..."
The two stone figures spoke intermittently in a language incomprehensible to others, their tone like a pre-programmed machine. However, perhaps due to the vast age of the time, this pre-programmed program had become largely broken, and they could no longer utter a single complete sentence.
Although the words spoken by the two stone figures were fragmented and obscure, Lin Fei's eyes darted around, and he seemed to understand what the two stone figures were trying to express.
It seems that the power of the boulder that Xuanyuan Sword absorbed earlier has taken effect, and these two stone figures have determined that they can enter the depths of the Fire Cloud Cave.
Lin Fei looked up again at the other end of the long bridge. It seemed that the two stone figures were trying to convey that the other side of the bridge was a dead end.
Thinking of this, Lin Fei couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat—the three ancient emperors were indeed cunning and shrewd; there was probably no treasure on the other side of the bridge, but rather a great danger.
Those who come to search for the treasures left behind by the Three Sovereigns, if they do not gain the approval of the Three Sovereigns, even if they possess extraordinary abilities, will likely face even more dangerous traps and mechanisms after crossing this bridge, rather than any treasures or divine skills.
"Down?" Lin Fei suddenly looked down at the bottomless abyss below the bridge, gritted his teeth, and said, "Forget it, fortune favors the bold. At worst, I'll just use the Lesser Thousand Talisman to teleport out. I won't lose my life here!"
Presumably because of the Xuanyuan Sword, these two stone figures wouldn't deceive me—if even the Xuanyuan Sword couldn't gain the approval of the three ancient emperors, then the treasures here probably wouldn't be taken away by anyone.
Anyway, I still have the Lesser Thousand Talismans. If all else fails, I can just teleport out.
With that thought, Lin Fei didn't hesitate any longer. Holding the Little Thousand Talisman in one hand and the Xuanyuan Sword in the other, he leaped into the abyss.
The two stone figures, their eyes flashing red, ignored Lin Fei as if they hadn't seen him at all.
Seeing Lin Fei leap into the abyss, Qin Zhongshan's eyes flashed, and he clearly understood what the two stone figures had meant.
"Kid, don't run away!" Qin Zhongshan shouted, and then followed Lin Fei, jumping down below.
The two stone figures completely ignored Lin Fei because he wielded the Xuanyuan Sword. However, Qin Zhongshan wasn't so lucky. A red light flashed in the eyes of the two stone figures, and they roared, "Without the tokens of the Three Sovereigns, kill!"
As he spoke, he wielded the enormous weapon in his hand and swung it at Qin Zhongshan.
Even though Qin Zhongshan had already opened the gates of heaven and earth, he was still sent flying into the sky by the stone man's immense power. With a loud crash, he slammed into the top of the cave, causing countless rocks to fall.
