Chapter 444
In that ancient ruin forgotten by time, Zhang Hao and his companions are gradually venturing into the unknown world behind the bronze door.
Every inch of this land seems to carry secrets from thousands of years ago, and every rock seems to whisper ancient stories.
An indescribable solemnity and mystery permeated the air, inspiring awe yet compelling a desire to explore further.
Zhang Hao's gaze was sharp as he moved among the well-arranged ancient buildings and sculptures, with only one thought in his mind:
Finding the lower limbs of the Qilin was their most important objective on this trip, and also the key to unraveling the mysteries of the Zhang and Wu families for generations.
However, finding such a precious item in this vast underground space is undoubtedly like finding a needle in a haystack.
Just then, Yi Sa's exclamation broke the silence, like a lightning bolt ripped through the night sky, instantly drawing everyone's attention to him.
"Zhang Hao, we've found something!"
Yi Sa's voice was filled with barely concealed excitement and joy as she pointed to a large rock not far away, where a simple, ancient stone box lay quietly.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Hao immediately strode forward, his gaze fixed on the box.
This box seemed to be a relic from ancient times. Its surface was covered with a thick layer of moss, blending into the surrounding rocks. If it weren't for Yi Sa's reminder, it would be difficult for anyone to find it.
The box is made of hard and rustic material, and its surface is covered with the marks of time. Every crack and every scratch seems to tell the story of the vicissitudes it has experienced.
The box has a regular shape and smooth lines, and it still maintains its perfect form despite a thousand years of wind and rain.
Most amazingly, a lifelike Qilin is carved in the very center of the box. This Qilin is not a simple relief, but is meticulously outlined by countless tiny grooves.
These ravines, varying in depth and shape, are like the masterpiece of nature, vividly depicting every detail of the Qilin.
The Qilin's eyes are deep and bright, and although they have been eroded by the years, one can still feel the majesty and wisdom contained within them.
Its limbs are strong and powerful, with smooth and perfect muscle lines, as if it could unleash amazing power at any moment.
Its scales are crystal clear, shimmering with a faint light, which is truly amazing.
Zhang Hao stared at the Qilin, a strange sense of familiarity welling up inside him.
He remembered that there was a similar Qilin carving on the bronze box passed down in the Zhang family, and that Qilin was the key to opening the Kunlun Mountain passage.
Thinking of this, Zhang Hao felt a strong premonition that this box might be the answer he had been searching for.
He immediately drew a dagger from his waist, cut his finger without hesitation, and gently dripped a drop of bright red blood onto the Qilin's forehead.
The moment the blood touched the carving of the Qilin, it seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, quickly flowing along the grooves.
These grooves seem to be the bloodline of the Qilin, guiding the blood to every corner of the box, as if infusing life into this Qilin that has been sleeping for thousands of years.
As the blood flowed, the entire box began to emit a faint red glow, which grew brighter and brighter until it completely enveloped the box.
The red light contained an indescribable power, seemingly awakening some mysterious entity slumbering inside the box.
Just then, a dull but powerful "bang" was heard, and the box slowly opened to everyone's astonishment.
The lid of the box, like a heavy gate, slowly rose, revealing the secrets inside.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the inside of the box, hoping for a miracle.
When the lid was fully opened, a dazzling light burst forth from inside the box, illuminating everything around it.
This light contained a pure and powerful force that inspired awe in all who beheld it.
Bathed in light, two Qilin legs lay quietly inside the box.
These two Qilin legs are completely different from ordinary beast legs.
They radiate a faint golden glow, each inch of their skin seemingly carved from the purest jade, exuding a warm luster while containing boundless power and majesty.
The muscles in the Qilin Leg are smooth and perfect, as if they could unleash amazing power at any moment.
What's even more astonishing is that these two legs are surrounded by faint fluctuations of spiritual energy. This spiritual energy, like a living thing, flows around the Qilin legs, adding to their mystery and extraordinary nature.
Zhang Hao stared at the two Qilin legs, a surge of indescribable excitement and awe welling up in his heart.
He knew that these two legs were not only part of the Qilin's body, but also mysterious treasures containing boundless power.
By fusing with a complete Qilin body, the Qilin bloodline can evolve to the level of the Primordial Qilin bloodline.
He slowly stretched out his hands and carefully lifted the two qilin legs.
When his fingers touched the skin of the Qilin leg, a warm and powerful force surged from the Qilin leg into his body, making him feel as if he were filled with a mysterious power.
This power not only made his body stronger and more powerful, but also elevated his spirit to an unprecedented level.
[Ding! Rare item discovered: Qilin lower limb.]
However, at that moment, a deep roar suddenly came from afar.
The voice contained boundless anger and murderous intent, instilling fear in those who heard it.
Zhang Hao immediately raised his head, his gaze fixed on the direction from which the sound came.
He knew that since there were such precious Qilin legs here, there must also be powerful beings guarding them.
Sure enough, as the roar drew closer, a huge figure slowly emerged from the darkness.
It was a huge Qilin beast with eyes as fiery as flames and a body radiating a blazing fire.
It spewed scorching flames from its mouth, melting the surrounding rocks into lava.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Hao's heart tightened. He knew that this Qilin beast was undoubtedly powerful, and it would be no easy task to seize the Qilin Leg from it.
However, he did not back down. Instead, he gripped the Qilin leg tightly in his hand and met the Qilin beast with a determined look.
"bring it on!"
Zhang Hao roared, and the power of the Qilin surged within him.
He brandished the Qilin leg in his hand and engaged in a fierce battle with the Qilin beast.
In this battle, Zhang Hao displayed unprecedented courage and strength, repeatedly repelling the fierce attacks of the Qilin Beast with the help of the Qilin Leg.
Finally, after a hard-fought battle, Zhang Hao, with his indomitable will and great strength, successfully defeated the Qilin beast.
The phantom of the Qilin vanished instantly.
