Chapter 1103

In the depths of the world, many cultivators had already gathered. In front of these cultivators was a passage. They stood in front of the passage and didn't enter, clearly hesitant.

The Spirit Devouring Rat stood behind the crowd, furtively looking at the passage in front of it. Its small eyes darted around, no one knowing what it was thinking.

It had already sent out a signal. All it needed to do now was wait for Zi Chen's group to arrive.

A voice suddenly sounded from behind the Spirit Devouring Rat. "Did you discover something?"

This was an unfamiliar voice. At the very least, this was the case for the Spirit Devouring Rat. It turned its head and saw a beautiful and arrogant woman walking towards it. As for this woman, she was riding on an extraordinarily mighty black beast.

Its small eyes glanced at the princess before withdrawing. Then, the Spirit Devouring Rat chose to remain silent.

"Did you discover something?" the princess asked again. She seemed to be unwilling to give up.

The Spirit Devouring Rat said, "Isn't it obvious? This is a passage. Enter the passage and reach the second level."

"Is that so? Then why don't you enter?"

"Can't you see that I'm waiting for someone?" The Spirit Devouring Rat asked in return. Then, it deliberately increased the distance between them.

The princess of the demon race, what kind of noble status was this? Many people wanted to get close to her, but the Spirit Devouring Rat was deliberately avoiding her.

The princess looked at the Spirit Devouring Rat in the distance and couldn't help but smile. "The Spirit Devouring Rat is an existence born to seek treasures, but now it's sneaking around. I'd be the one to believe you."

Footsteps sounded and the middle-aged demon walked over. "Your Highness, how is it?"

The princess said, "There's a problem with the Spirit Devouring Rat."

The middle-aged demon pondered. "Your Highness means that there's a problem with this passage."

"Since many people feel that there's a problem with this passage, then there's naturally a problem."

"Then what do we do?"

"Wait."

"Wait for Zi Chen's group to arrive."

"That's right. Don't forget, he still owes us a favor."

"But this matter is of great importance and there might be some great opportunity. What if they don't keep their promise?"

"Zi Chen is a very interesting fellow. He didn't try to kill me back then, let alone a promise."

The middle-aged demon frowned but didn't say anything. If Zi Chen had made a move in the Blazing Ancient Castle, the one who would have died would have been Zi Chen.

When the passageway appeared in front of them, no matter what, after everyone discovered it, the first thing they should do was to enter. In fact, quite a number of people had entered, but they never returned.

However, this was also very normal. It was possible that after entering the next level, they would all go in search of treasures. Who would be so foolish as to come back?

However, even though this was an extremely normal thing, many people felt that it was extremely abnormal. Thus, they looked at the passageway from afar and stopped moving forward.

Zi Chen and the others rushed over and saw the tunnel in the distance. When they saw the humans, they asked curiously, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with that tunnel?"

"There's no problem. They just have to go in. But they just don't want to."

The Spirit Devouring Rat said in an extremely natural manner. His words were filled with thick ridicule and disdain. However, behind this tone, there was an extremely obscure sound transmission. "That is not the real passage. It seems to be the passage to leave. However, there is another strange place here. It is very obscure, but I can feel its existence."

Zi Chen smiled and said, "In that case, let's go in."

"Alright, let's go now." The Spirit Devouring Rat said.

The two of them were conversing with words. No matter how soft their voices were, it would still be heard by most people. Hearing the Spirit Devouring Rat's affirmation, some people who were hesitating no longer hesitated. They immediately made up their minds and stepped into the passageway.

After entering the passageway, they felt their vision blur as if they had stepped into some kind of teleportation array. When they appeared again, they saw a huge black ancient castle in front of them. The black ancient castle was incomparably huge and exuded an ancient aura. It was extremely extraordinary.

Everyone's expression immediately became excited, thinking that they had arrived at some kind of treasure land.

However, this treasure land seemed to be somewhat familiar.

"Eh, this place looks very familiar."

"Yes, it is very familiar."

Some people sighed and some people agreed. Then, everyone recalled where they had seen this ancient castle before and looked around at the same time.

The surroundings were a mess. The ground was bumpy and there were dried bloodstains in many places. It was as if some kind of great battle had occurred.

Seeing that the surroundings were becoming more and more familiar, everyone's expression changed drastically. One of them shouted angrily, "Spirit Devouring Rat, you f * cking liar."

What kind of treasure land was this? It was clearly the entrance to the Saint Burial Ground.

Hearing the curses, laughter came from the distance. There were many cultivators standing together. They had all come out earlier.

Zi Chen and the others naturally wouldn't really go in. Just now, it was just an act. However, it seemed that their acting wasn't very realistic. They only managed to trick a few people into going in. The others didn't move.

These people's attention was all on Zi Chen. Obviously, they had the idea that if you go in, we will go in too.

Zi Chen and the others had already walked to the front of the passageway and were about to go in.

Suddenly, a voice sounded, "Zi Chen, we found a lot of Heavenly Beasts."

"Heavenly Beasts." Zi Chen frowned slightly. He looked into the distance and then looked at the passageway in front of him. He seemed to be hesitant.

What did Heavenly Beasts mean? Everyone naturally knew. Each Heavenly Beast represented a Spirit Weapon.

As the Sect Leader of a large sect, Zi Chen's hesitation was also very reasonable.

"Wait for me here. I'll be back soon." Finally, Zi Chen made up his mind quickly, showing the courage that a Sect Leader should have.

Zi Chen's figure flew up. Beside him, Su Mengyao looked at the people around and frowned slightly. She seemed to be extremely unhappy and said, "If you want to go, let's go together."

She followed Zi Chen closely.

The Spirit Devouring Rat sighed softly and then followed.

"How can you leave me here alone?" Longhu also flew up. As for Zhang Haotian, he had already disappeared.

Zi Chen and the others left just like that. Everyone was dumbfounded, not knowing how to deal with the situation in front of them.

They stopped in their tracks, afraid that the other place was really a treasure land. If they entered late, it would greatly affect their harvest.

Everyone's gaze fell on their leaders almost instantly, waiting for them to make a decision.

"What should we do?" The Ancient looked at the perfect body and asked.

The perfect body frowned and pondered. His expression was unfathomable, but he didn't say anything.

"Senior Brother, are we going in or not?" A Buddhist disciple asked Ming Xin.

"Amitabha." Ming Xin pressed his palms together and chanted a Buddhist proclamation.

After that, his mouth kept opening and closing, but no sound came out.

"We'll just follow Benefactor Zi Chen."

"Follow Zi Chen, but Senior Brother, Zi Chen hasn't entered yet. What if the harvest inside is gone?"

"Junior Brother, do you know who's the strongest here?"

"Of course it's Zi Chen."

"Whose team is the strongest?"

"That's hard to say, but if we really fight, it'll be Zi Chen's team."

"Junior Brother, you still don't understand."

"Senior Brother, you mean that since Zi Chen isn't in a hurry, we shouldn't be."

"What I mean is that there's something strange about this passage."

"But Zi Chen just now …"

"But Zi Chen didn't enter."

Between the questions and answers, Ming Xin dispelled everyone's doubts. It had to be said that although this monk didn't look very good, his mind was very clear. Of course, this was only a voice transmission.

"Your acting is quite realistic, but I don't know how long you'll be able to kill the Heavenly Beasts." The Princess smiled coldly, signaling the demons to stay put.

In the field, there were demons with minds like demons. As for the others, they might not be smart enough, or they might be a little stupid, but as long as they weren't really stupid, they naturally wouldn't go in when no one else was going in.

They were waiting, waiting for Zi Chen to return from killing the Heavenly Beasts.

However, in this world, with so many people here for so long, how could there be so many Heavenly Beasts for Zi Chen to kill?

The group walked around, but they didn't see a single Heavenly Beast.

Searching aimlessly was very boring, so they could only stop and count their gains.

Now, they all had Spirit Weapons, and there was nothing in the world that could attract them. However, they were counting their gains. How boring was that?

"My acting just now was not bad, right?" The Spirit Devouring Rat found a shiny gem, swallowed it in one gulp, and then showed off.

Zi Chen thought for a moment, nodded solemnly, and then said, "Not bad, but my cooperation was flawless."

"That's right, if you and I work together, we'll naturally be able to deceive those fools. After a while, when they're all gone, we'll go look for treasures."

As if it was too proud, it caused a lot of dissatisfaction. The Spirit Devouring Rat hurriedly said, "Of course, everyone's superb acting skills played a big part in this success. Moreover, every point was on point, from the details of the clothes to the expressions to the movements, it was simply impeccable."

While everyone was still feeling complacent, they didn't know that the others at the entrance of the passage were waiting patiently. While waiting, they saw that Zi Chen and the others had not returned after a long time, and a sense of disdain arose in their hearts.

"Still killing Heavenly Beasts, what kind of Heavenly Beasts can't be killed after killing for so long?"

After not returning for a long time, and thinking about the scene from before, everyone naturally guessed that the conversation between Zi Chen and the Spirit Devouring Rat was an act, and it was for them to see.

As the number one person in the same realm, defeating so many invincible spirit bodies, if Zi Chen was acting for them to see, they would naturally be happy and even feel very proud. However, in this situation, knowing that this was an act for them to see, and that they were treated as idiots, how could they accept this?

Therefore, they recalled the previous details and severely criticized Zi Chen and the others. From there, they peeled the cocoon and found all kinds of shortcomings.

From the acting skills, clothes, expressions, and movements, everyone picked out a lot of problems. In the end, they summed it up, and that was bad, too bad, to the extreme.

With such bad acting skills, it wouldn't even be enough to deceive a three year old child, let alone them, who were outstanding and mighty geniuses of this generation.

After thinking through this point and seeing the most fundamental reason, everyone was no longer in a hurry. Instead, they waited for Zi Chen and the others to return.

Acting, don't you know how to act? Acting, acting, acting, you should at least act back.

Sure enough, Zi Chen and the others finally returned after killing the Heavenly Beasts for a long time. However, when they saw the black mass of people at the entrance of the passage, they were all dumbfounded.

"Zi Chen is back, let's go in quickly."

"Yes, Zi Chen is back, if we don't go in now, we won't have any more opportunities."

"Not bad, not bad, let's go in quickly."
