Chapter 686: Rich Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth
It is now evening, the time when monsters and beasts come out to run rampant, and many warriors and monks have already begun to station themselves in the mountains.
If they don't leave now, it will be even more difficult to leave when it gets late at night.
"But……"
The boy hesitated for a moment, then seeing his sister's determined eyes, he nodded helplessly.
Then, the three of them prepared to leave, but Jiang Chen stopped them.
"What's wrong?"
Li Shiyu looked at Jiang Chen in confusion .
"My friend, I know you mean well, but this is a special situation. I hope you can let us leave first." Li Shiyu said earnestly.
"I'm just reminding you."
"Thank you so much."
After saying goodbye to a few people, Jiang Chen continued to explore the center of the mountain range, where there were the ruins of an ancient fairy palace.
Of course, because the distance was too far, Jiang Chen didn't know the exact location.
However, based on the ancient relics he had seen and the speculated location, he was 90% sure that the Ancient Immortal Palace was within this area.
As for the final result, we need to find the ruins of the ancient fairy palace to confirm it.
“This mountain range has a rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth, many times higher than that of the outside world.”
Suddenly, Jiang Chen stopped and looked around.
Near him, there were trees standing one after another. Each tree was extremely thick, with lush branches and leaves, blocking the sunlight.
Moreover, Jiang Chen sensed that the air was filled with spiritual energy.
“This is a treasure land.”
Jiang Chen exclaimed. In various , Jiang Chen found many medicinal herbs, all of which were precious and rare.
"It is indeed a sect with a long history." Jiang Chen thought to himself, and he became more and more excited. "The Ancient Immortal Palace will definitely be discovered today."
He quickened his pace and headed deeper.
…………
Deep in the mountains, there is a quiet place where you can faintly hear the chirping of birds and the buzzing of insects.
A river meanders through the grass, the water is clear and transparent.
At this time, several young men were standing next to a huge rock.
"Master, this is what we are looking for this time." One of the young men said, pointing to a boat in the lake.
"I have been here before. I discovered a secret, so I stayed here."
An old man stood on a boulder, looking around, and suddenly frowned and said, "Strange, I clearly feel that the monsters here have become stronger during this period of time. Even these ordinary fish have become ferocious."
"Master, do you mean that all the monsters here have mutated?" said another young man.
"It's possible."
The old man pondered and said, "However, this time we are not only here to take the treasure, but also to subdue these monsters and use them as our guards."
"Yes, sir." everyone said in unison.
"Um?"
Suddenly, the old man's eyebrows twitched, "It seems there is another living person here."
"Alive?"
Everyone's expressions changed slightly. This was a gathering place for monsters, and there were actually other people here?
"Don't worry about him, just kill him."
The old man said coldly, turned and left, and the others followed.
At the same time, behind them, a pair of eyes were staring at them nervously until they completely disappeared into the forest.
"That old guy just now is probably not simple."
Jiang Chen murmured, although his strength has not reached the Golden Immortal realm, his soul power is strong and he can sense the old man's strength, which is definitely not just the Void Refining Realm.
"He is stronger than that young man."
Jiang Chen guessed, "If they join forces, I'm afraid I won't get any benefit."
"That old guy might be the young man's master."
Immediately, Jiang Chen shook his head and put the matter behind him.
He came to the edge of the lake and found the water was icy cold, as if it was frozen. A chill ran through his body, making him shiver.
"There's something strange about this lake."
Jiang Chen saw the clue, "There may be some danger hidden in this lake."
“Roar~”
At this moment, a black vortex emerged from the lake, and a huge monster crawled out of it. It was five meters long and covered with black armor.
Its opened eyes glowed blood red, like a wild beast.
From its mouth protruded fangs full of sharp teeth, emitting a cold light.
"Mysterious Crocodile!"
Jiang Chen recognized this monster at a glance. It was extremely difficult to capture.
However, the Xuanming Crocodile also has a weakness, which is that it is afraid of fire. As long as you master fire spells, you can restrain this monster.
"I want to see who dares to stop me from taking the treasure."
A cold voice sounded in the mountains.
The Xuanming crocodile roared and pounced over to bite.
"snort."
A sword light fell on the Xuanming crocodile, and a ball of fire suddenly erupted.
The Xuanming crocodile struggled in pain and was soon burned to death, turning into ashes.
With a whoosh, a figure flew in front of Jiang Chen.
This is a man about twenty years old, handsome, with a smile on his face, giving people a sense of evil charm.
"Who are you?" Jiang Chen asked coldly.
"You don't need to know who I am. You just need to know that I'm here to steal the treasure." The man said indifferently.
"oh."
Jiang Chen nodded to show his understanding, and then said: "In this case, I am also here to grab the treasure, let's fight."
The man didn't expect the other party to be so straightforward.
"Okay, I'll play with you and see what you can do." The man said contemptuously.
"Then please take it."
After Jiang Chen finished speaking, he raised his arm and a bolt of lightning struck out, striking the man.
Crack!
The man was trembling all over and his body was stiff, like a sculpture.
"What did you do to me?" the man shouted angrily.
"Give up resistance."
Jiang Chen sneered, raised his arm, and punched down. With a bang, the man's chest exploded.
"impossible!"
The man could hardly believe that he was killed instantly; he was in the Nascent Soul stage.
Bang.
However, the man had no chance to think about this question as his body fell to the ground, blood gushing out.
Before he died, his pupils were filled with shock and regret. He should not have underestimated this seemingly thin boy, otherwise he would not have ended up with a tragic death.
"Why have the monsters here become stronger?"
Jiang Chen looked around and saw that the original fish had turned into a fish monster that was two meters long. Its scales were shining coldly and were extremely sharp.
"It seems that there is something strange here."
Jiang Chen decided to go into the lake, but he had to wait until night.
As evening fell, ripples appeared in the lake and the surface gradually calmed down, revealing the bottom of the water.
"This is?"
Jiang Chen saw a dead body lying at the bottom of the lake.
Judging from the appearance, it should be a woman.
Jiang Chen hesitated, walked over to check, and found that she was still alive, but seriously injured.
"Save me..."
At this moment, the woman made a faint sound.
"Huh?"
Jiang Chen noticed that her skin was silvery white, like colored glass.
Moreover, he also noticed that the woman's cheeks had a blush, which was beautiful and charming.
Jiang Chen's heart moved. He remembered that Tang Yan had told him the secret of this ancient mountain range.
