Dawn

After finally getting rid of the group of jumping and screaming heads, a clearing suddenly appeared in front of them.

Under the moonlight, a giant tree as thick as three people's arms grew in the deep pool in the center of the open space. Its bare black and thick rhizomes climbed all the way from the deep red pool water, like several giant mangs winding and standing.

And there was a person buried on the top of the giant tree!

With the faint skylight, one could see the man bowed his head in silence, with little vitality.

The countless branches split from the end of the thick rhizome penetrated the flesh and blood of his body, slowly climbing up like a living thing, eroding his body inch by inch, and sticky blood gushed out from countless wounds.

"It's him!" Seeing the other party's clothes clearly, and realizing that it was the mysterious boy he met before, Mu Qing frowned: "Could it be that he's already hung up?"

"Never mind him! He deserves it!" He hesitated for a moment, turned around while touching his nose, and was about to leave.

At that moment, there was a slight ripple in the pool water, and in an instant red waves surged, several long black shadows soared into the sky, and rushed towards Mu Qing like poisonous snakes!

"Hey... I'm just passing by!" Mu Qing yelled and ran away, the end of the black shadow suddenly opened a bloody mouth, like a group of artillery fire followed his figure all the way down!

Just when he was about to draw his sword to fight back, the top of the giant tree exploded suddenly, and bloody red burst out in all directions, with a radius of tens of feet covered with blood red, invisible!

After a while, the light disappeared, and the giant tree disappeared out of thin air, accompanied by a black shadow chasing him!

Only the blood that runs across the bank of the deep pool proves that it once existed.

Then, Mu Qing saw an extremely weird and horrifying scene!

Hancheng is not dead, his head is hovering high in the sky, but there is a huge black shadow under his neck, like a giant python with a human head, standing upright.

The black shadow slowly shrunk, and stopped when the head was six feet above the ground, and then, the pool of blood seemed to be alive, climbing and covering the black shadow inch by inch, continuously condensing.

A long and vigorous man's body is quickly formed in such condensation!

Finally, a pair of crimson feet stepped onto the shore and slowly walked towards Mu Qing.

"Okay... Long time no see..." Mu Qing stepped back subconsciously, forcing out a dry smile.

Hancheng didn't seem to hear him, and continued to approach him expressionlessly.

"You, you, you... what are you going to do? You want to fight... put on your clothes first!"

"Clothes!" Han Cheng suddenly stopped, and stretched out his bloody hand to him.

The next moment, Mu Qing's back was already on a tree trunk, he swallowed with some difficulty, and then slowly stretched out his hand to untie the sword pan, with an angry expression on his face.

"Don't stare at me like that, okay? I'll be shy!" He held Jiannan in one hand and the waistband of his trousers in the other, gritted his teeth, and stared and smiled.

"Hurry up!" Han Cheng frowned.

Mu Qing rolled his eyes, pulled off his coat, threw it to him, then turned and ran.

"Why are you running? Am I going to eat you?" There was a trace of displeasure between Han Cheng's cold brows, and he just turned around and stopped in front of him.

Brother!When you were a fucking human, you would slash me with a knife as soon as you met, but now that you’ve become a monster, it’s not surprising that you can eat me, right?

"Ahem! I don't know... what advice, Young Master?" Mu Qing bowed in a polite manner and asked with a smile.

"Shenmo Ridge looks extremely dangerous, but it may not be comparable to the outside." Han Cheng's expression softened, but he suddenly changed the subject: "If it falls into their hands, you will die a miserable death!"

Mu Qing was taken aback for a moment, and then understood.

In order to drive himself into this mountain before, he did not hesitate to hurt others, did he just want to protect himself?

But... Can his one-sided words really be believed?

"Who are they?" Mu Qing asked after putting Jian Nang back on his body.

"This is the Ming Kingdom!" Han Cheng didn't answer directly, put on Mu Qing's clothes, turned and walked into the darkness.

Mu Qing's heart was shaken, and he remembered a passage recorded in an ancient book: In the north of the North Sea, there is a mysterious island hidden in the vast ocean, and its traces are elusive. The world calls it Hongli Island. Kingdom of the Underworld" is the lair of the underworld monster clan.

Depend on!Do you want to be so unlucky!Fly often!My good junior brother, don't die here!

"Why did you appear here?" Mu Qing followed up a few steps and asked.

When I saw Han Cheng for the first time, I knew he was human. Could it be...he also accidentally fell in?

"I was arrested eight years ago!" Han Cheng replied lightly, his deep voice full of magnetism.

"Then why are you still alive? Uh...I mean...how did you survive?"

Han Cheng's back froze slightly, and he didn't speak.

"Did I... ask the wrong question?" Sensing that the atmosphere was not right, Mu Qing carefully looked at the other person's face.

"I know where your companion is!" The topic suddenly changed.

Mu Qing's eyes lit up and he was about to speak, when he heard the other party say: "As long as you help me complete one thing, I will take you to him and send you out of here!"

The night was deep, and the smell of blood and fire boiled and filled the breeze in the forest.

The embers of the embers were ringing, and the corpses of various monsters were burning in the flames, exuding a pungent burnt smell. With the light of the flames, the young man could see far away through the thick smoke through his eyes. Corpses strewn across the ground.

"We have reached the central area, and the next step is to find the Tianshui Realm!" Han Cheng scanned the surrounding darkness and said lightly.

"What kind of mirror is Tianshui Mirror? What's the use of looking for it? Is it to illuminate your face?" Mu Qing rolled his eyes, speechless.

Oh shit!What about one good thing?

"The entrance to the Tianshui Realm is guarded by the blood infant. The blood infant is a mutant dog monster with a strong desire for blood, especially the blood of human cultivators." Hancheng completely ignored his dissatisfaction and complaints, and went on his own. After finishing speaking, he suddenly raised his right hand, and the sharp long claws transformed into a monster involuntarily slashed towards the boy's wrist.

"Damn! What are you doing?" Mu Qing jumped all the way, staring at Han Cheng's two-inch long claws in horror.

"Bloodletting!" Han Cheng looked indifferent.

"Let your sister go! I want to let you go!" Mu Qing was furious.

"I'm not a human cultivator!" Han Cheng looked like he had nothing to do with himself.

"I don't care! Take your claws back quickly!" Mu Qing jumped.

"Then we can only use force!" Han Cheng frowned, and his figure flew over in an instant!

As a result, among the corpses all over the ground, amidst the thick smoke and broken trees, Mu Qing was chased by Han Cheng like a monkey, jumping up and down, dodging left and right, so embarrassed.

"Damn it! Don't bully me too much!"

"When I become stronger in the future, I will be the first to kill you!"

"Aww...don't stab my ass! Help me..."

The blue veins on Hancheng's forehead jumped, his body flashed, and his clothes rolled up with the sound of breaking wind, and he kicked out with lightning speed, directly kicking Mu Qing away!

He fell to the ground hard like a broken sack, and vomited a big mouthful of blood: "You... so ruthless!"

Before the words fell, the deep purple light burst out from the ground like poisonous blood, and the red gusts coiled up from the ground like tentacles, entangled and danced with each other, entangled the boy's hands and feet in the blink of an eye, and pulled him to the ground .

The wind howled violently in my ears, making it hard for people to breathe.

In a trance, he seemed to hear a crackling sound in his ears, and all the things that were wrapped around his hands and feet were suddenly loosened, and a pair of steady and powerful hands hugged him.

When he landed, he found himself in Hancheng's arms again, and immediately rolled his eyes, but before he could move, his body was pushed away roughly, followed by a merciless slap on his back. .

Mu Qing cried out in pain, and flew towards the distance involuntarily, and fell heavily into Huacong with a "bang".

At that moment, a huge blood-covered monster dog roared lowly in front of it, and suddenly stepped forward with four strong and long legs, and rushed like a mountain collapsed. Break!

Mu Qing groaned and pulled herself up from the ground, crossed her legs and crossed her arms, sat on the ground and started watching a movie.

snort!You rock!Let me see how powerful you are!

However, just as he finished chanting this sentence in his heart, there was an earth-shattering howl in front of him.

Seeing the huge mountain-like body burst open suddenly, and the bright red liquid splashed all over the air, Mu Qing was bewildered.

Do you want to be so fast?

At the end of the stone path, there is a majestic hall. The stone steps leading to the gate of the hall are more than ten feet wide, and the height is more than... ah!I can't see it clearly, but it's very high!

When he reached the 110th step, Mu Qing looked at the first stone step in front of him, which was almost as tall as a person, and then looked at the countless steps above which were as high as two people, three people, four people, and five people. The stone steps suddenly felt a little dumbfounded.

"What a heaven-defying building!" He stared at the steps in front of him, Xu Yu took a deep breath, and jumped up on his toes.

At this moment, a blowfly that came out of nowhere buzzed and charged head-on, crashing head-on into the boy's throat.

Mu Qing only felt a tightness in his chest, and the infuriating breath he lifted dissipated instantly, and his body fell from mid-air, fell heavily on the stone steps, and then rolled straight down like a ball. It took a long time to hear "" With a muffled bang, the whole earth seemed to tremble.

"Cough...cough...fuck! Where are the flies...cough...cough...seeking death...also...cough...don't look for me either! Fuck...a whole body of bones... It fell apart...cough cough...cough...cough...that's bad luck! If it wasn't for the deep foundation, an ordinary person would have fallen to his death!" After falling all over the place, Mu Qing hissed and gasped for air, covering the side of his throat with his hands He coughed and couldn't help cursing angrily.

After a while, he got up humming and chirping, looked down at the broken gravel road under his feet, and then looked up at the long stone steps, instantly frustrated.

At this moment, a blood-eyed hornet the size of a human head appeared out of nowhere, and flew towards Mu Qing amidst the thunderous buzzing and flapping of its wings!

Its speed is very fast, it was more than ten feet away just now, and it is already approaching in the blink of an eye!

At that moment, a crimson tendon shot through the air like an arrow, pierced through the wasp's body in an instant, wrapped around Mu Qing's waist, and then rolled back towards the hall at the top of the high-level hall with a "swish".

"Thank you!" Standing in front of the main hall, Mu Qing looked at the muscles that quickly slipped back into Han Cheng's palm, and thanked him without sincerity.

The moonlight was like water, gently swaying, the young man stood silently, watching the front quietly with empty and indifferent eyes.

Mu Qing followed his line of sight and found that in front of the tall palace gate, a person was standing in the shadow under the eaves, facing the two of them.

The cold and murderous breath spread silently, and Mu Qing slowly raised his hand, holding it on the hilt of the sword behind his back.

After a silent confrontation for a moment, Han Cheng suddenly stepped out and walked towards him.

Mu Qing kept silent and followed closely.

Soon, Hancheng walked into the shadows under the eaves and walked up to the man, but his footsteps did not stop at all, and he continued to move forward calmly, but the moment he passed the man, the corner of his eye Quickly glanced at the back of this person indiscriminately, where a long knife hilt was poked upwards obliquely.

Mu Qing, who was following behind, was a little wary at first, but at this moment, he looked at the motionless man in surprise, hesitated for a moment, took a few steps around, and ran towards the boy.

"It's just a sculpture!" Suddenly, Han Cheng said in a low voice.

"Ah?" Mu Qing's steps slowed down, and only then did he notice that although the man was wearing red silk clothes, he was not wearing shoes, and his feet were connected to the floor.

"...It's really a statue!" He couldn't help but marvel, and when he stepped forward, he realized that the statue was carved with a beautiful man, with handsome and rebellious features, shining golden eyes, and the lightning-like red demon lines on his face looked extraordinarily evil Bewitching.

He touched the statue's face curiously, tugged at the statue's nose, and finally moved his hand towards... cough cough!Even that stuff is carved out!This**... I like it!

"The statue itself is the owner of this place, and also the goal of my trip!" Standing in front of the closed gate, Han Cheng suddenly said.

"Ah...haha! The carving is very realistic!" Mu Qing's raging salty pig's hand froze and quickly shrank back, laughing.

Hancheng ignored him, and gently pressed his palm on the cold doornail, but did not push it away immediately, but slowly closed his eyes, carefully distinguishing the noises inside.

The touch in the palm was cold and hard. As expected, the hall separated by the door was filled with slight and dense trembling sounds, as if the wings of some kind of insect were vibrating at high speed, and they were constantly moving. Nothing out of the ordinary.

Listening carefully to those high-frequency vibrations and their moving range, Han Cheng silently counted the number of poisonous insects inside.

With a "boom", suddenly, the closed palace door opened by itself!

At that moment, countless wasps the size of a human head rushed out, but Han Cheng's attention was not distracted by them, and his sharp eyes caught more than a dozen dim gray shadows in an instant, flashing among the poisonous insects, If it hadn't been prepared early, it would never have been discovered!
