Shocking! The master of metaphysics is actually the ancestor of ghosts and monsters!

The group stared blankly at the person approaching them step by step. The aloof girl was like a ray of starlight in the darkness, radiating a sacred light.

When I saw how effortlessly she dragged the village chief, my preconceived notions were shattered.

So brutal...

So cold-hearted...

Qiao Feng no longer dared to look him in the eye, his face bruised and swollen as he carried Yu Manwen on his back. Everything that had just happened was too fast; he had experienced the feeling of life and death, and even now his heart was still pounding wildly.

The things beyond his comprehension, the villagers' uncontrollability, and the unknown red-clad creature beside him all left him bewildered.

The enormous impact left him still reeling.

Countless questions remained unanswered, and his mind had stagnated.

If he had doubted Jing Li's courage at the beginning, now he just wants to quietly stay by Nangong Qian's side.

He could tell that the woman was still somewhat tolerant of Sisi.

If Nangong Qian heard this, she would probably yell at him: "Brother, how can you tell that she's being tolerant of me? I'm the one who's been begging her all along!"

"Let's go." Passing by the group, Jing Li didn't stop. "Let's go meet their Bronze God."

I thought Qin Ruolan would lose her temper and attack the village chief, but she just glared at him fiercely and did nothing else.

The village chief felt a chill run down his spine from that look, and he could no longer utter the words he had been shouting. He closed his eyes in fear.

Qin Ruolan really came out...

He pondered deeply, secretly vowing that if he could produce the treasure bestowed upon him by the Bronze God, he would surely annihilate them all.

It's all that brat's fault; for some reason, the precious item turned to ash in her hands.

......

......

"Xiao Chu, is this the place Master Huang mentioned?" Zhao Yanchen was tall and slender, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

The two stood side by side, their clothes stained with barely visible blood, and their faces, though dirty, added to their grim and menacing air.

"Ah Chen, do you think Qiao Feng and the others will be in trouble?" Chu Xia frowned, somewhat absent-minded, a hint of pain showing on her usually cold face.

There were still traces of blood at the corners of his mouth, indicating that he had just vomited blood.

They evaded the villagers' pursuit and finally found this place, only to find that their efforts had been in vain; the place they were looking for was actually the village chief's house.

"Never mind them for now, your murderous aura is about to become uncontrollable." Zhao Yanchen's words were cold and hard, showing only his anxiety for Chu Xia's condition.

"Is this the place?" Zhao Yanchen asked again to confirm.

Chu Xia clutched her chest and looked around. When they arrived, the villagers had all gone to chase after Qiao Feng and the others, so the place was quite empty.

"Hmm." She lifted her eyelids and nodded slightly.

My master once said that the eight palaces of the formation are the eight trigrams: Qian, Dui, Li, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Gen, and Kun. The key point of this village's formation is in the Qian position.

Years ago, he stumbled upon this place and discovered that it contained a massive hidden formation.

The most crucial part of an array is its core. While most arrays can be constructed using natural materials, the core of this forbidden mountain can only be formed by gathering innate treasures.

Because it's too huge...

They came looking for the treasure within this formation, but unfortunately they didn't know how to break it.

"Okay, then I'll explore it a bit. You sit down and rest first." Zhao Yanchen helped Chu Xia sit down, took out the compass, and began to look around the courtyard.

Chu Xia pondered, chin in hand, feeling a profound unease about the weather that day.

After my master learned that she was coming, he said that he had prepared everything for me and asked me to bring Nangong Qian with me, saying that bringing her would make the trip easier.

She didn't understand why she had to bring this annoying person along.

So she approached Qiao Feng and hinted that he should bring Nangong Qian along, but for some reason, Yu Manwen, who was socially awkward, also came along.

For Yu Manwen, this was also an unexpected turn of events, because she happened to have a similar project and knew that she could complete it with someone she liked, so she naturally came along.

In early summer, I did feel the preferential treatment. As soon as I entered the forbidden mountain, I went directly to the village and was even led the way by the villagers.

The process was almost without any obstacles. Even when their investigation alerted the villagers and they were chased down, they still managed to pass by the villagers several times.

She could understand the villagers' motivation for chasing them; they must know there was a treasure hidden here. To be honest, they were stealing from others, but she couldn't help it, as her murderous aura was becoming uncontrollable.

Even now, she and Zhao Yanchen still believe that they are the ones who angered the villagers.

They had no idea what was happening on the other side.

"Ah Chen, don't you think this place is strange?" Chu Xia looked at the oppressive sky above her head, a sense of gloom rising within her. She had a feeling that something bad was about to happen.

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhao Yanchen's compass went out of control and began to spin wildly.

"Let's go!" Zhao Yanchen grabbed Chu Xia and rushed out of the village chief's courtyard.

Although it was only a few steps away, they walked with extraordinary difficulty, as if something was pulling them from behind.

Zhao Yanchen's expression was cold and he reacted quickly by taking out a talisman. Chu Xia felt as if she had been hit by a heavy hammer in the chest, and a warm liquid suddenly surged up her throat. She tried her best to hold back the blood and cooperated with Zhao Yanchen's movements. She pinched the talisman with her fingertips, and a yellow light quietly disappeared into the talisman and flew behind the two of them.

The air seemed to freeze for a moment, and the two took advantage of the air raid to quickly escape from the courtyard.

As soon as she was discharged from the hospital, Chu Xia could no longer hold back the taste of blood in her throat and vomited it out.

"Xiao Chu!" Zhao Yanchen helped Chu Xia steady, a hint of heartache flashing in his narrow eyes.

"It's nothing, what's inside?" Chu Xia's forehead was covered in fine beads of sweat, her face was as pale as paper, she calmly wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and turned to look at the village chief's house.

Even if it hurts, you have to endure it!

There was a tremendous amount of malevolent energy inside just now.

The courtyard and the entire house were no longer visible, filled with black mist, but no one had left the courtyard.

"I just saw a bronze doll." Zhao Yanchen's tone was deep, and his heart was heavy. Just one glance at Xiao Chu almost cost him his life.

I never expected this forbidden mountain to be so troublesome.

Chu Xia hadn't expected this outcome. She had thought that finding the array's core would make breaking the array easy, but now she had no idea where to begin.

This was vastly different from what she had learned in the past.

The core of the formation is the most vulnerable point, yet this place is filled with malevolent energy.

But no matter what, she was determined to make a name for herself.

Thinking of this, Chu Xia's expression became even more resolute, and her eyes grew even colder.

"Want immortality? I can give you anything you want..." An evil, seductive voice suddenly entered their ears, lingering in Chu Xia's mind.

A sound.

Two sounds.

Third tone.

A dense cacophony of sounds enveloped them...

In early summer, her eyes gradually became confused and cloudy.

The bronze doll on the offering table smiled sinisterly.

Suddenly, its expression seemed to freeze, its bright eyes turned into an emoji, and it stopped moving.

"roll."
