I picked up skill fragments in the demon world.

Chapter 399 Taboo
Xiantian Peacock watched Zhang Chen disappear into the yellow sand and shook his head secretly: "This kid is very stubborn. I'm afraid he won't listen to advice. I just hope he doesn't cause any trouble and disturb my recovery of strength."

Zhang Chen came to a corner of the yellow sand with the "Immortal's Relics" in his hand, lowered his head to look at the item in his hand, and then took out the spiritual relic left by the monk Haichan. After looking at it for a while, the mouthparts of the innate mosquito came out, and a pair of eyes stared at the spiritual relic left by the monk Haichan, and directly stabbed the mouthparts of the innate mosquito.

"do not want!"

When the Great Freedom Demon saw Zhang Chen's actions, he was so frightened that he lost color and shouted out quickly.

Unfortunately, it was too late. There was a thunderous sound, and a terrifying force came out from the crystal ball. Zhang Chen's arm exploded in an instant and turned into blood mist. Then the force quickly attacked Zhang Chen's body. At this time, the crystal core in Zhang Chen's body was flashing with mysterious light, and the sea of ​​blood inside him rolled up huge waves, actively pulling the terrifying force into the sea of ​​blood, and was swallowed and dissolved by the infinite sea of ​​blood.

Then three breaths later, there was a "crack" sound, and a crack appeared on the crystal core in Zhang Chen's body, but fortunately, the terrifying force was eventually dissolved by the boundless sea of ​​blood.

At this time, a sound like popping beans was heard, and then a sound of bones cracking came from Zhang Chen's body. Then, horrible and hideous cracks appeared on Zhang Chen's flesh. Zhang Chen was like a tattered porcelain doll that could explode at any time and break into millions of pieces.

At this time, inside the crystal core of Zhang Chen's body, waves of blood were rolling, with blood-red ripples rolling, resisting the force that was destroying Zhang Chen's body.

"You are stupid! This so-called relic is connected to the 'fruit position' in the dark. The fruit position is the power of Heaven. You directly steal the power of the fruit position, which is to steal the power of Heaven. If it weren't for the blood-red crystal core in your body that burst out with a force to resist the backlash of Heaven, I'm afraid you would have been reduced to ashes in that instant." The Great Freedom Demon came out and looked at Zhang Chen, who was like broken glass in front of him, and said with fear.

At this time, Zhang Chen's body was covered with horrible scars, just like Yin Zhong who was severely injured by the magic mirror. Those scars were like earthworms.

Zhang Chen did not respond to the words of the Great Freedom Demon. He just closed his eyes and tried his best to use his magical powers. The skin on his body kept moving, and the horrible scars began to repair themselves. However, the repair process was extremely slow, as if there was a force lingering in the wounds, constantly preventing the injuries on Zhang Chen's body from recovering.

Although the recovery was slow, it was recovering after all. At this time, the power of the sea of ​​blood in the crystal core flowed out continuously, continuously pouring into Zhang Chen's body, repairing Zhang Chen's wounds.

It was unknown how long it had passed, but Zhang Chen's bones and muscles automatically recovered, the horrific and hideous scars began to heal, and his broken arm began to grow again.

"Whoo~"

Zhang Chen let out a long sigh, a lingering fear in his eyes. This was the closest he had ever been to death. If it weren't for the protection of the crystal core, he would have been killed by the backlash of the Heavenly Dao.

"Are you scared now? Let's see if you dare to devour indiscriminately in the future." The Great Freedom Demon cursed.

Zhang Chen did not answer the words of the Great Freedom Demon, but carefully examined his body. Although his physical body had been repaired, the wound on the crystal core still existed and did not seem to need repair at all.

At this moment, the crystal core was like a crystal covered with cracks, as if it could explode at any time and turn into powder.

"Thanks to the fact that I swallowed the sea of ​​blood, otherwise I would have to face the calamity today." Zhang Chen cast his 'gaze' towards the infinite sea of ​​blood in the crystal core, and saw that the infinite sea of ​​blood shrank by half, and more than half of it evaporated directly under the backlash of the terrifying power.

"What kind of power is that?" Zhang Chen asked. He didn't hear the scolding from Mahadeva Heavenly Demon before. He was busy trying to survive and had no time to listen to Mahadeva Heavenly Demon's words.

Upon hearing this, the Great Freedom Heavenly Demon said: "This relic is a relic, containing the power of the fruition, and the fruition is connected to the Heavenly Dao. You seized the power of the Heavenly Dao, and it is right that you were counterattacked by the power of the Heavenly Dao."

Zhang Chen did not speak after hearing this. Instead, he remained silent for a long time before saying, "How terrifying!"

The Great Freedom Demon did not say a word. If the way of heaven was not terrifying, how could the gods usher in the dusk?

"It seems that I can't keep these things on my body." Zhang Chen looked at the remains, casually dug a hole in the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation, and buried them in the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation.

These remains are already indestructible materials. Even the power of the winding Yellow River cannot do anything to them.

"It's time for me to go out and see what's going on outside. I'll also show my face to avoid arousing the suspicion of the master. Now that all the ancestors have disappeared, the master of longevity must have noticed that something is wrong. He may have begun to pay attention to all the abnormalities in the Taoist temple. Next, I have to hide and lie dormant without revealing any flaws." Zhang Chen looked at his repaired body, and the next moment he turned into a drop of water and disappeared into the formation. When he reappeared, he was already in his own house.

The furnishings in the house remained the same. Zhang Chen crawled out from the crack in the ground. After revealing his figure, he changed his clothes, hid the worn-out clothes, and then walked out of the house carrying a bucket and a rag.

At this time, the sun was about to set in the sky. Zhang Chen took the wooden bucket and wiped it slowly. On the way, he passed by the Heaven and Earth Hall and saw the Patriarch of Longevity standing in the hall with his hands behind his back, looking at the empty altar, wondering what he was thinking. A ray of slanting light from the setting sun shone through the gap into the hall, illuminating the dimness of the hall. In the darkness, the figure of the Patriarch of Longevity was particularly lonely.

Zhang Chen bowed quietly to the Patriarch of Longevity without making any expression, then left the door of the hall and continued to do his work.

Facts proved that the Grandmaster Changsheng had not noticed the disappearance of the immortal ancestors, which bought Zhang Chen a lot of time. Until the next day when Zhang Chen pretended not to know and went to make tea as usual, he saw that there was still no reaction in the Taoist temple. He thought to himself: "Could it be that no one in the Taoist temple noticed that all the ancestors had disappeared?"

Zhang Chen pondered for a moment and decided to report to the Grandmaster Changsheng. As a servant of the other grandmasters, if he discovered something and did not report it, the grandmaster might become suspicious.

He has too many secrets that cannot withstand investigation.

Zhang Chen came all the way to the master's residence. Today the master did not preach, but sat in the yard wiping his sword.

"Master, I have something to report." Zhang Chen stepped forward respectfully.

"What's the matter?" The master put down his sword after seeing Zhang Chen, a smile appeared in his eyes.

This errand disciple was able to deal with it. If he hadn't reminded him, how could he have discovered the secret plots of those old guys?

Therefore, he still had a good impression of this errand disciple in front of him.

"Grandmaster, today when I went to serve tea, I found that all of you grandmasters were missing..." As Zhang Chen spoke, he raised his head and looked cautiously at the Grandmaster Changsheng.

Sure enough, after hearing Zhang Chen's words, the Changsheng Patriarch's expression changed: "Are they all gone?"

Zhang Chen nodded, and saw the master making a hand gesture and drawing a line at his forehead. Then a golden light burst out from his forehead, and an eyeball rotated in the golden light, scanning all directions.

After a moment, the master closed his eyes, his face full of doubt and confusion: "How strange! How come everyone's aura disappeared? Not even a trace was left behind?"

"This is not good news." The master was shocked and confused.

You must know that keeping the enemy under your nose and letting the enemy go are two different things.

If these old guys are hiding in the dark and doing mischief, it would be really troublesome to deal with them by myself. After all, it is easier to dodge a spear than to guard against an arrow from the dark.

"Come on, go with me to take a look." The master instructed Zhang Chen and stood up and walked towards the door. Zhang Chen followed closely after hearing his words, thinking about the magical power that the master had just displayed. After a moment, he had an impression. He had seen records about this magical power in the library. It can see through and observe things thousands of miles away, can see qi, and can capture souls.

After walking a few steps, he heard the voice of the Longevity Patriarch, which brought Zhang Chen back to his senses from his thoughts on the pupil technique: "When you were serving before, did you ever hear the ancestors say where they were going?"

Zhang Chen shook his head upon hearing this: "Disciple, I don't know."

The master sighed, but there was nothing he could do. He could only follow Zhang Chen into the small building. Then he opened his heavenly eyes and scanned the houses where the ancestors had lived again and again, searching for traces of the ancestors' existence and capturing the ancestors' tracks in the air. Finally, he came to the outside of the Nine-Bend Yellow River Array. Looking at the Nine-Bend Yellow River Array in operation, the master's face became serious.

"All traces point to the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation, and all the auras of the ancestors were cut off in front of the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation. Either they all entered the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation, preparing some conspiracy to prevent being spied on by my heavenly eye, or they concealed their aura and hid in the dark, and the so-called aura was cut off in front of the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation, which was just a sleight of hand to deceive me." The ancestor's mind was as clear as a mirror, and he quickly worked out all kinds of results.

"As a general rule, he who strikes first is the strongest, and he who strikes last will suffer. However, there are many mysteries in this matter, and it seems like someone is trying to sow discord." The Patriarch Changsheng pondered in his heart. After all, these people were his allies. If he really killed them all, he would be in danger and would be targeted by others.

"Forget it. I will first find out who is behind this. I always feel that there is a big hand stirring up trouble in the dark." When Changsheng Patriarch thought of this, he said to Zhang Chen, "You can go now. You don't need to serve me anymore in the future."

After finishing his words, Changsheng Patriarch stared at the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation and fell into deep thought again. At this moment, he only sighed in his heart: "It would be great if the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror was still there, so that we can see if they are causing trouble in the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation."
