- Chapter 291 - The bronze statue of the golden toad, the inverted altar, Su Mu's danger!
Above the waterfall is a platform, square in shape, with a side length of exactly one hundred meters.
Under the feet is a hard rock, and the water flowing upstream from the waterfall covers the surface of the rock, forming a layer of water about three centimeters thick.
“What is this?”
Su Mu looked towards the center of the platform and found a statue standing in the center of the platform.
After approaching, he found that it was a statue of an animal.
It looks very similar to a toad, with four limbs lying on the ground, the head raised high, and a little golden light on the surface. This is a bronze statue of a golden toad, ten meters high, just in the center of this square platform.
There is no water at the location of the golden toad sculpture, and the ground is clean. If you look closely, you can see that there are dark runes painted under the bronze statue, which looks a bit like a formation.
It is worth noting that in front of the golden toad sculpture, there is a gray incense burner, which is about the same size as an ordinary incense burner. It looks a bit small in front of this huge golden toad sculpture.
On the incense burner, there was a yellow incense stick, which had burned out, leaving only a bare wooden stick, on which traces of charred burning could still be vaguely seen.
Su Mu found something wrong, so he soared into the air, looking down from a high position.
It can be seen that the water surface on the square platform, with the golden toad bronze statue as the center point and the dark runes as the veins, formed a natural altar.
The layer of water covering the altar continued to flow along the rune veins, as if it was surrounding the golden toad bronze statue in the center.
Combining the incense burner with this layout, this place should be an altar.
However, there was no human habitation within a hundred miles, and no households could be seen. Who built this altar? Who was it commemorating?
Su Mu landed on the ground, stood in front of the golden toad bronze statue, looked up at the statue, and looked at it carefully.
When he stretched out his right hand and touched the bronze statue with his palm, he could feel a series of weak fluctuations coming from the bronze statue, like the beating of a human pulse, very weak and very regular.
But strangely, there was no breath of life inside the golden toad bronze statue, so how did this pulse come from? ?
Su Mu turned around and began to observe the incense burner in front of the golden toad bronze statue.
This incense burner looked ordinary and no spiritual power fluctuations could be felt from it.
Su Mu’s spiritual consciousness spread out and directly covered the entire altar. His thoughts were highly concentrated, following every pulse of this altar, and he began to slowly pull it out like a cocoon.
Suddenly, Su Mu finally found the most critical array eye.
This array eye is the incense burner in front of him!
Although Su Mu was not proficient in the array, he had studied it quite a bit. He could analyze that as long as he moved this incense burner, he could touch the silent array of the altar.
The key question is, how to move it?
Su Mu’s eyes fell on the incense that had burned out on the incense burner.
With a wave of his hand, the spiritual power turned into a spiritual fire, and ignited the incense that only had a small half of the stick left.
As the incense was lit, a wisp of white smoke rose up and turned into white smoke lines, lingering around the entire golden toad bronze statue.
The next second, the golden toad’s tightly closed eyes suddenly opened.
This is a pair of blood-red pupils!
The golden toad slowly lowered its head and stared at Su Mu at his feet.
The sudden change also startled Su Mu. Just when he was about to jump away, the golden toad bronze statue opened its mouth and swallowed Su Mu.
The formation of the entire altar was activated, and the powerful confinement force fell on Su Mu!
Su Mu’s body froze for half a second.
And in this half second, the golden toad swallowed Su Mu into his stomach in one bite.
In an instant, Su Mu felt dizzy and dark around him, as if he had entered an abyss space. Countless powerful suction forces appeared around him, madly sucking Su Mu’s spiritual power and vitality.
Seeing this, Su Mu quickly adjusted his state, meditated on the spot, and began to resist by practicing the technique.
After a stalemate of almost ten minutes, the powerful suction force had been completely resisted by Su Mu.
Su Mu was also angry.
You dare to suck me?
I’ll suck you dry!
Su Mu was practicing the Heaven Devouring Demon Technique, which he got from a woman in white. He also practiced to the seventh level of perfection by adding points.
With the operation of the Heaven Devouring Demon Technique, he began to madly absorb everything from the golden toad!
At this time, he could feel that the golden toad had panicked and began to jump back and forth on the altar, twisting it madly.
Opened his mouth and wanted to spit out Su Mu.
It’s easy to invite gods, but difficult to send them away.
You swallowed me in, and now you want to spit me out?
It’s too late!
If I don’t suck you dry today, I’m not called Su Mu!
As the technique was running, the majestic energy rushed into Su Mu’s body crazily.
Boom——
A sound of breaking came from the dantian.
The bottleneck was directly broken, and the breath began to surge!
Su Mu’s cultivation broke through the barrier and reached the quasi-immortal emperor realm!
Moreover, the cultivation was still soaring all the way!
It rose to the point of being infinitely close to the immortal emperor realm before slowly calming down.
At this moment, Su Mu felt that his whole body was light and indescribably transparent, with a sense of being in control of everything.
This was the first time he truly felt the invincible feeling brought by the powerful cultivation.
The surroundings became quiet.
Su Mu slowly opened his eyes and found that he had left the belly of the golden toad and sat cross-legged in the center of the altar.
At this moment, Su Mu’s cultivation was infinitely close to the Immortal Emperor. He was only one step away from reaching the realm. His cultivation realm should be called the “half-step Immortal Emperor” realm, right?
He took a few deep breaths to calm down the turbulent spiritual power in his body and calm down his excitement.
He slowly stood up and began to look for the shadow of the golden toad.
After looking around, he found that the golden toad had disappeared, leaving only the incense burner. Cracks appeared on the ground of the altar, like a spider web on it.
The black array runes had all collapsed.
Su Mu stood on the edge of the altar and looked down at the waterfall, and found that the water flow had returned to normal.
At first, the water flow went up against the waterfall, but now it flows normally from top to bottom.
It seems that it is because of the influence of this altar that the water flow of the three tributaries below has reversed, which has caused the “inverted waterfall” phenomenon that violates the natural rules.
The next second, the system’s broadcast sounded in his mind:
[Congratulations to the host, the extra causal reward has been triggered, the completion degree is very good, favor points +200,000]
After hearing the system’s reward, Su Mu was also shocked.
This is two hundred thousand! !
He expected that the reward might be relatively generous, but he didn’t expect that he would be directly rewarded with two hundred thousand favor points!
