Chapter 314 Jiang Mo's Accident
Jiang Mo nodded: "Stay alert and stick close to me."
"No matter what happens, don't panic."
The five of them cautiously stepped into the city gate, the Golden Gu Divine Power flowing within Jiang Mo's body, ready to deal with any unexpected situations.
The scene inside the city was even more bizarre than I had imagined.
The streets were filled with ruins, and some buildings had their walls covered with inscriptions and strange patterns.
Most strikingly, countless stone statues stand on both sides of the street.
They were all humanoid, but their expressions were distorted, as if they were enduring great pain.
"These stone statues... could they be petrified people?" Feng Baobao guessed in horror.
After careful observation, Jin Chan shook his head: "It doesn't look like a petrified person; it's more like a statue made of some special material."
"But the expressions and postures of these statues are so lifelike that they send chills down your spine."
Jiang Mo frowned slightly, feeling that something was off about these stone statues, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
"Continue on, but be careful not to touch the statues."
The five people cautiously made their way through the streets toward the city center.
According to the instructions of the Gu God, the ruins of the progenitor of all Gu should be located in the very center of the city.
As you go deeper, the city grows larger and the buildings become more magnificent.
The stone statues on the streets have also become more diverse, including human-shaped ones as well as various strange creature forms.
Their expressions and postures varied, but all conveyed a sense of eeriness and unease.
Suddenly, Jiang Mo stopped in his tracks, his eyes flashing with golden light as he looked ahead warily.
"What's wrong?" Feng Baobao asked softly.
"Something's moving." Jiang Mo replied in a low voice, "It's in the square ahead."
Following Jiang Mo's gaze, everyone saw an empty square.
Hundreds of stone statues stand silently, each with a different shape, but all remain still.
Just as everyone was puzzled, one of the stone statues suddenly moved!
It was a human-shaped stone statue, and its originally stiff limbs began to move.
Something seemed to be wriggling beneath the stone-like skin!
"Oh no, these stone statues are alive!" Jin Chan shouted.
"They are a variant of the Sand Scorpion Gu, which specializes in disguising themselves as stone statues to hunt prey!"
As soon as he finished speaking, all the stone statues in the square began to move, turning towards the five people and emitting a chilling screech!
"Stone Scorpion Gu!" Jiang Mo's eyes blazed with golden light. "Everyone be careful! This Gu worm is extremely dangerous. Once bitten, your entire body will be instantly petrified!"
Hundreds of stone scorpion gu rushed towards the five people at the same time, creating a spectacular and terrifying scene.
"The Gu-Exterminating Blade Technique sweeps through a thousand armies!"
Wei Duoduo was the first to make a move. The Gu-Exterminating Blade in her hand transformed into a blue blade of light several meters long, sweeping across a group of stone scorpion gu and cutting them into pieces!
"Heavenly Gu Body, Purple Cloud Palm!"
Not to be outdone, Feng Baobao unleashed her purple Gu power, striking out with both palms to repel a swarm of attacking Stone Scorpion Gu.
Chen Duo stood aside, activating the power of the Primal Gu to form a protective shield against the Stone Scorpion Gu's attack.
When the cicada is activated, it flaps its wings and flies high, swooping down from the sky.
The golden cicada-like power pierced through the hard shells of dozens of stone scorpion gu like a sharp sword!
Jiang Mo, however, was the most composed among them.
He did not act immediately, but instead observed the behavior patterns and weaknesses of these stone scorpion worms.
"Interestingly, these stone scorpion worms seem to be controlled by some kind of force; their movements follow a predictable pattern."
After the analysis was completed, Jiang Mo's eyes shone brightly with golden light, and the divine power of the Golden Gu, the power of fire element, and the power of wind element within his body erupted simultaneously!
"The Three Elements unite as one, unleashing the divine power of the Golden Gu!"
In an instant, a terrifying energy fluctuation spread from Jiang Mo's body, and golden light surged in all directions like a tide!
All the stone scorpion gu stopped moving under the impact of this golden light, as if they were frozen in place by some invisible force.
Burn away all evil!
Jiang Mo let out a low shout, and suddenly a blazing flame erupted from the golden light, instantly covering all the stone scorpion gu!
These originally indestructible stone scorpion gu were weakened by the combined power of the golden gu and the fire element.
It actually started to melt, turning into pools of crystal-clear liquid!
"Wind element, purify!"
Finally, Jiang Mo activated the power of the wind element, creating a whirlwind that swept up all the liquid.
Then it was purified into specks of golden light and dissipated into the air.
The whole process was smooth and efficient. In less than ten seconds, hundreds of terrifying stone scorpion gu were completely wiped out by Jiang Mo alone!
"That's incredible!" Feng Baobao exclaimed in amazement. "The combination of the three elemental powers is truly astonishing!"
Jiang Mo smiled slightly: "This is far from the limit."
"As my mastery of elemental power deepens, the power I can unleash will become even greater."
"However, the appearance of these stone scorpion worms proves that we have indeed entered the core area of the ancient city."
"We must be more careful; there may be stronger guards ahead."
The five continued onward and soon came to see a magnificent palace standing in the very center of the city.
The palace was constructed entirely of a black material, its surface covered with intricate Gu script and patterns, exuding an ancient and mysterious aura.
"That's it!" Golden light flashed in Jiang Mo's eyes. "The ruins of the Progenitor of Ten Thousand Gu are in that palace!"
The five people walked quickly toward the palace, but were stopped halfway by a sudden voice.
&34;站住！&34;
A mysterious figure dressed in a long black robe emerged from the shadows of the palace, his voice cold and authoritative.
Unauthorized trespassing in the City of Ten Thousand Gu is a capital offense!
Jiang Mo's eyes flashed with golden light as he warily sized up the black-robed man before him.
The other person was completely hidden under a wide black robe, so his face could not be seen, but judging from his voice, he should be a middle-aged man.
What's even more shocking is that the aura emanating from this black-robed man is somewhat similar to that of the Heavenly Gu Sect Master!
"Who are you?" Jiang Mo asked in a deep voice, "Why are you guarding outside this palace?"
The man in black robes sneered: "I am the guardian of Ten Thousand Gu City, responsible for protecting the ruins of the Ten Thousand Gu Ancestor."
"As for you, you sinners who trespassed into forbidden territory, there is only one fate—death!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the man in black robes formed a hand seal, and his black robes suddenly burst open, revealing his true face!
This was a man who looked to be about forty years old, with a tall and upright figure and a stern face.
Most shockingly, his entire body was covered with dense black runes, forming a natural "rune armor"!
"The Myriad Poison Runes!" the Golden Cicada Envoy exclaimed. "This is the unique skill of the Myriad Poison Ancestor, said to be mastered only by disciples personally taught by him!"
Jiang Mo's eyes flashed with golden light, his heart filled with shock: "You are the disciple of the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Gu?"
The man in black robes sneered: "Indeed, I am one of the twelve disciples under the progenitor of all poisons, ranked seventh, the Envoy of Myriad Talismans!"
"Back then, the progenitor of all poisons specifically left behind twelve disciples to guard this ruin in shifts."
