Chapter 753

Entering the passageway and stepping onto the ancient smelting trial road, in Zi Chen's heart, this was definitely a lonely and dangerous road.

However, when Zi Chen appeared in the passageway and saw everything in front of him, he was instantly dumbfounded. Similarly, the humans who had appeared with Zi Chen and the demons who had entered earlier were also dumbfounded.

Here, they were all here. Everyone was together.

Both sides looked at each other with confusion written all over their faces. Then, the group looked forward again.

"Lord Zi Chen." The fifteen humans walked towards Zi Chen. The demons around them also began to gather together.

"What's going on? Aren't we going to the ancient road? Why are we here?" Looking at the huge square in front of them, everyone was puzzled.

This was a huge square surrounded by low mountains. If the square was only slightly bigger, they would not have paid attention to it. However, at this moment, there were at least a few hundred people gathered in the square, and these people were all looking at them at the moment.

"Hey, you guys hurry up and come down. Don't block the way." At this moment, a burly man shouted at Zi Chen's side.

"You've come so late. Hurry up and come down. What are you still standing there for?"

Soon, dissatisfied complaints came from the crowd.

Zi Chen and the others suddenly understood. Then, they looked down at their feet and found that they were on a high platform. Under the platform, there were neat and dense patterns. Zi Chen, who had some understanding of matrices, knew that this was a transmission matrix.

The passageway they had stepped into should be a transmission matrix, and the destination was here.

Because they were stunned, they did not immediately react. This directly angered the people below. Immediately, several beams of energy shot towards the high platform. Some were aimed at the demons, and some were aimed at the humans.

"This is the ultimate energy of an Empyrean warrior."

Zi Chen's pupils shrank. He found that among the energy that was rushing towards him, there was an ultimate energy. In addition, there were some other energies that were surging with extraordinary auras.

With so many energies coming towards them, the fifteen humans were obviously frightened. They had just arrived here and did not know what was going on, but they had already encountered such strong cultivators. They instantly lost confidence in their journey on the ancient road.

"Bang." "Bang."

The sound of energy vibrating resounded at the edge of the high platform. It was the incoming energy that was being crushed. On Zi Chen's side, the Devil Ape was the one who attacked. He held the black rod and swept it violently. Many of the approaching energy were crushed in a decisive and swift manner.

It was a Dragonoid from the Shifter Clan that attacked, but it was not the leader of the Dragonoid, Long Feng. His hands turned into dragon claws and destroyed all the energy in front of him.

After the two of them made their move, the numerous energy waves that had been shot at them exploded one after another. The remnant energy waves also dissipated and did not touch anyone. As for the people who had been impatient and urging them to hurry up, they instantly shut their mouths.

It seemed that both sides on the high platform had experts overseeing them.

Seeing the dead silence in the square, Zi Chen sneered in his heart. It seemed that no matter where one was, the principle of the strong being respected would never change.

"Don't just stand there, come down quickly."

"Everyone has waited here for so long. We don't want to wait for a few more years. Come down quickly."

Just as the square fell into dead silence, two more voices came from the crowd. They were two young men. One of them was looking straight at Zi Chen in the crowd, while the other was looking at Long Feng. Clearly, the two of them had already figured out who the real leader of the group was.

"Let's go down."

Zi Chen led his people down the high platform. On the other side, a group of Shifter Clan members also walked down the high platform.

"Hehe, what kind of weirdos came this time? Just now, there was actually fear in many people's eyes."

"They dared to come to the ancient road, but they are actually afraid of death. They are really weird."

As Zi Chen and the others walked down the high platform, they heard many discussions around them. Moreover, many cultivators were looking at Zi Chen and pointing at them. Clearly, they were talking about them.

Behind Zi Chen, the 60 Dan Essence cultivators were ashamed and angry. They could not wait to find a hole to hide in.

The group had just arrived, and their faces were still in a state of confusion. They still did not understand where this place was, and why these people were here. From the tone of their voices, it seemed that they had been here for many years. Questions appeared in Zi Chen's mind one after another. However, at this moment, Zi Chen realized that many people were looking at them with extremely unfriendly gazes.

In addition to unfriendliness, Zi Chen also vaguely felt murderous intent. Among these people, there was no lack of people who wanted to kill them.

Unfamiliar with the environment here, Zi Chen did not intend to cause trouble. He was prepared to wait and see.

A human man walked to the back of Zi Chen's group and approached a Dan Essence cultivator. He patted him on the shoulder and said, "Hey, friend, my name is Luo Ke. You must have been scared just now."

Luo Ke had a kind smile on his face. As the saying goes, one does not hit a smiling face. This Dan Essence cultivator from the Wei Clan also smiled at him.

"You've just arrived, so you'll get used to it. Moreover, you're considered lucky. Previously, many people were directly blasted to death on the battle platform." Luo Ke smiled and said, "Seeing that you're covered in cold sweat, I'll give you something good to calm you down."

Hearing this, the Wei Clan Dan Essence was moved. The other party had obviously been here for a long time and had some understanding of the environment. Therefore, he decided to understand from the other party.

Then, Luo Ke took out a gourd and said mysteriously, "This is definitely something good. It's hard to get here, so hurry up and try it."

The gourd seemed to be filled with some kind of liquid. After gently shaking it, the Wei Clan Dan Essence's face was full of curiosity. Out of caution and etiquette, he only took a small sip and then passed the gourd to the other party.

"How does it taste?" Luo Ke took the gourd from the Wei Clan Dan Essence. The smile on his face became more and more mysterious.

This was a kind of sweet juice. After entering the stomach, there would be a cooling feeling, making one's spirit clear and refreshed. The Wei Clan Dan Essence's face showed a smile, but before he could say "not bad," he fell to the ground.

After the Wei Clan Dan Essence fell to the ground, Luo Ke took the gourd and left. However, before he left, he showed off the things in his hand. It was a spiritual ring and a late-stage Primordial Core.

Looking at the Wei Clan Dan Essence again, his spiritual ring was gone. The Primordial Core in Abdomen's hand was also dug out by Luo Ke the moment he fell.

The Wei Clan Dan Essence's death happened in an instant. After the other party fell to the ground, Zi Chen noticed. When he turned around, Luo Ke had already taken the things and left at an extremely fast speed.

"Lord Zi Chen."

After silently killing a Dan Essence, the fear that had just disappeared from the faces of the fourteen Dan Essences reappeared. To be honest, some of them were envious of the Wei Clan Dan Essence. Someone actually took the initiative to talk to him, but they didn't expect to lose their life after just a few words.

Moreover, who would have thought that this seemingly harmless guy would attack in an instant, and in such a ruthless manner?

"What's going on?" Zi Chen walked towards the dead Wei Clan Dan Essence and looked around.

"He's dead. Is there a need to ask? Can't you see?"

Many of the cultivators looked at Zi Chen mockingly as if they were watching a monkey show. Not far away, a mocking voice sounded. It was Luo Ke, the one who killed the Wei Clan Dan Essence.

"I know he's dead. What I mean is, are you going to kill people randomly here and no one cares? No one cares?" Zi Chen looked at Luo Ke.

"Are you an idiot? What kind of place is this? Who would be so bored as to care about such things?" Luo Ke's face was full of mockery.

"Luo Ke succeeded again. Sigh, he killed one last time, and now he's killed another one. It seems like his harvest is not small."

"We're about to leave this place. Of course, the bigger the harvest, the better."

Discussions broke out again. Many of the cultivators looked envious. What they cared about was Luo Ke killing the enemy. As for the dead Wei Clan Dan Essence, no one cared. No one even looked at him.

"No one cares? So what you mean is that you can kill whoever you want here?" Zi Chen's eyes grew colder and colder.

"Of course, that's on the premise that you have the ability. But looking at you guys, it seems like you should be worried about when you'll be killed instead of thinking about killing others," Luo Ke continued.

He stood a few meters away from Zi Chen and had no intention of running away. It was unknown whether he was confident or unaware of the approaching danger.

"We're new here, so we're not familiar with this place. Can you explain it to us in detail?" Zi Chen looked at Luo Ke, and a cold smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"You want me, Luo Ke, to explain it to you? Who do you think you are? A Xiantian Martial Artist? Are you worthy?"

Luo Ke looked at Zi Chen with disdain. But in his heart, he thought, 'This guy is indeed inexperienced. He hasn't even heard of my name.'

"You'll know soon enough if I'm worthy or not." Zi Chen's smile turned colder. Then, he shouted, "Devil Ape."

The devil ape rushed forward, turning into a black light and heading straight for Luo Ke.

"Aiyo, you want to fight for real? But first, you have to catch up with Yours Truly." Luo Ke let out a strange cry and started moving.

His speed was fast, almost extreme. His footwork was strange. He did not fight the devil ape head-on. Instead, he dodged continuously. And every time he dodged the devil ape's attack, he missed it by a hair's breadth.

This was either due to luck or absolute confidence in his own speed.

"You want to catch the cat spirit, Luo Ke? Dream on."

"Luo Ke has killed many people here. If he was so easy to catch, he would have died many times over."

"So what if he can catch him? Luo Ke's combat power is not something an ordinary person can compare with."

Since there was a battle to watch, everyone dispersed and looked at the field with ridicule. From their expressions and discussions, it could be seen that they thought highly of Luo Ke. But soon, everyone's voices and expressions froze in the next moment.

The cat spirit, Luo Ke, was dodging the devil ape's attack by a hair's breadth. He kept retreating, and his face was full of ridicule and mockery. He felt that he was toying with his opponent.

The cat spirit, Luo Ke, did not realize that there was a tall figure standing behind him, waiting for him for a long time.
