Chapter 883
The door was pushed open by Zi Chen effortlessly. If it weren't for Longhu, Wang Xian 'er, and the others, Zi Chen would have assumed that they were acting in front of him.
As the door was opened, a pitch-black tunnel appeared before them, leading to another world. Zi Chen entered it without hesitation.
Behind Zi Chen, Tyrant and the rest followed at their fastest speed.
"Let's go in."
"Quick."
"There must be something good in here."
The others did not hesitate either. Their eyes flickered passionately as they entered the tunnel.
In just over ten breaths' time, everyone had entered the tunnel. There was no sign of the cultivators in the nine-layer world.
After everyone entered the tunnel, the door was shut once again, isolating the two worlds once again.
Behind the tunnel was a pitch-black world, filled with rolling black Qi. Zi Chen was the first to appear. As soon as he arrived, he saw the only ray of light in the world.
"Mengyao."
Seeing the figure in the light, Zi Chen called out. He was surprised to see Su Mengyao as soon as he entered the tunnel, but his face was soon filled with excitement.
"I knew you'd be back. This is a trap specifically targeted at you. You shouldn't have come." Su Mengyao said in a gentle tone.
Zi Chen shook his head and said, "It's fine, as long as you're safe."
In the midst of their conversation, Tyrant and the rest appeared too. They were surprised to see Su Mengyao. Soon, the group gathered in the pitch-black world.
Glancing at the black Qi above their heads, Zi Chen's eyes became gloomy. So did Tyrant, as they were extremely familiar with the black Qi.
Tyrant turned his head toward Zi Chen and said, "Demonic Qi, it's the demonic Qi of the foreign tribes."
Zi Chen nodded his head.
Previously at the ancient battlefield, when the demonic ape had obtained the succession, Zi Chen had seen this demonic Qi. It was extremely useful to the demonic ape, but the demonic Qi there was not as strong as here. Besides, Zi Chen and Tyrant had also seen this demonic Qi at the Sacred Burial Ground, where Zi Chen had met the demonic ape.
"Could it be that this is a battlefield between humans and the foreign tribes?" Tyrant frowned.
Zi Chen shook his head, indicating that he did not know.
After the others entered, they also discovered the abnormality of this place. However, they did not stop. Instead, they continued forward in a straight line. That was because they subconsciously felt that there were treasures in this place. Moreover, there were precious treasures.
Streaks of light whizzed into the distance as they went off in search of treasures and opportunities. Everyone came quickly and left quickly. Soon, only Zi Chen and his group were left.
"Since we're already here, we have to take a look whether it's a trap or not. There's no exit here, so the only way to leave is to keep going forward," Zi Chen said after a while, and everyone nodded in agreement.
The group moved forward, but they didn't find anything. There were no inheritances, no treasures, and no resources. This was a world of darkness, and there were no traces of battle. It didn't look like an ancient battlefield, but like a real world of darkness.
This place was very empty, and there was almost no scenery of any sort. There were no mountains or trees, and only the demonic qi above them gave off an oppressive aura, indicating that this place was not ordinary.
After walking for more than ten miles, they heard the sound of fighting in the distance.
The monk's eyes lit up and he said, "Listen, there are sounds of fighting."
"What can the sound of fighting mean?" Lei Ming was puzzled.
"Stupid."
The monk said loudly, "The sound of fighting means that there's a conflict, and there's only one reason for conflict here, and that's for inheritance or resources. Now that there are sounds of fighting, it means that this is a treasure land, and there's a great treasure in front of us. Let's go quickly."
Lei Ming felt that the monk's explanation was very reasonable, so the two of them sped up. As for Zi Chen and his group, they were still walking at a leisurely pace.
As they went deeper, the sense of danger in Zi Chen's heart became more intense, as if there was something here that could threaten him.
This sense of danger made Zi Chen extremely irritated. Su Mengyao stopped her deduction, because this place was indeed targeting Zi Chen.
The group moved forward for another ten miles, and when they arrived at the place of the battle, they saw the monk and Lei Ming. The two of them didn't join the battle, but looked ahead in shock.
In front of them, more than ten Xiantian Realm warriors and dozens of Houtian Realm warriors were working together to fight a huge monster. This monster was over a hundred meters tall, and it was emitting demonic qi. There were two horns on its head, and its two lantern-like eyes were emitting blood-red light.
When Zi Chen saw this huge monster, he immediately exclaimed, "Alien race!"
Zi Chen had seen this kind of alien race in the Holy Burial Ground. At that time, Zi Chen didn't fight with it, but he was sure that it had the power to kill him. In the end, it was the Devil Ape who used the Delusion-breaker Eye to kill it.
The combat strength of this alien race was definitely in the Human Origin Realm. It was holding back a group of human trial takers by itself. It could be seen that these human trial takers wanted to escape, but every time they retreated, a demonic qi rope would entangle them and drag them back.
The battle was actually initiated by this foreign race, and there was nothing else beside this foreign race. There were no inheritances or resources.
"It's actually an alien race, there's actually a living alien race here." After knowing the identity of the Devil Shadow, everyone was shocked.
Zi Chen was now completely sure that the danger he sensed came from this alien race.
He walked in front of Tyrant and Lei Ming, took out yuan liquid from his spirit ring, and began to distribute it.
The high-grade Origin Liquid emitted a dense light and appeared in front of Tyrant. Tyrant's eyes lit up. He didn't ask anything and directly accepted it. After accepting the high-grade Origin Liquid, Tyrant once again looked at Zi Chen with eager eyes.
Zi Chen ignored Tyrant and took out yuan liquid again, giving it to Lei Ming.
There were more than a thousand of them. Seeing Zi Chen take out so much, Lei Ming was clearly startled. He asked, "Zi Chen, what are you doing?"
"I feel that this place is full of danger. Take this yuan liquid and use it." Zi Chen said.
Lei Ming hurriedly waved his hand, refusing, "I have resources on me, this thing is too precious."
Zi Chen said, "Take it. If there's danger, I'm afraid I won't be able to help you. Having more resources is not a bad thing. Don't be afraid of using them up, take as much as you can."
Lei Ming didn't refuse again and accepted the high-grade yuan liquid.
Zi Chen then looked at Xia Xin, took out a thousand drops of yuan liquid, and said, "Take it. If you can walk out of here alive, I'll provide you with all the fruits of strength you need to break through."
Zi Chen was willing to do this because he trusted the two and treated them as his own people. Xia Xin didn't continue to refuse and directly accepted it, heavily nodding his head.
As for the next round of yuan liquid distribution, it went very smoothly. Whether it was Lin Xue, Wang Xian 'er, or Su Mengyao, they didn't stand on ceremony with Zi Chen. They took as much as Zi Chen gave them.
However, the three of them also had the reservedness that women should have. They weren't as shameless as Tyrant, following Zi Chen from the beginning to the end of the distribution. However, in front of Tyrant, Zi Chen's face wasn't thin, and he didn't give Tyrant any more resources.
After the resources were distributed, there were even three mutated beasts. After the distribution, everyone prepared to move forward.
The battle ahead was still ongoing. There were already casualties among the Houtian realm warriors, and Xiantian realm warriors were also injured. The alien race's battle strength was very strong, not to mention they were Mortal Origin realm aliens.
"Puff."
A Xiantian realm warrior was injured and coughed up large mouthfuls of blood. He was shocked by the alien race's battle strength. He prepared to use a secret technique to escape. If he didn't, he might become the fourth Xiantian realm warrior to be killed today.
But before he could use his secret technique, an endless black light pressed down from above his head. Then, a black blade formed from energy fell from the sky.
The sharp blade fell on his head. Fear appeared in the eyes of the Xiantian realm warrior. He wanted to dodge at full speed, but in the next moment, he felt his body lose control for a moment.
In this kind of life and death crisis, suddenly losing control of one's body was obviously fatal. The black blade immediately chopped down without any pause. When the Xiantian realm warrior regained control of his body, the black blade had already chopped down on his head.
Blood spurted out, and a Xiantian realm warrior was split in the air. Before his soul could rush out, it was crushed by the energy emerging from the black blade.
The fourth Xiantian realm warrior died.
In the distance, Zi Chen and the others witnessed all of this with their own eyes. Their expressions became extremely solemn.
They were originally planning to move forward, but they changed their minds and rushed towards the alien race instead.
If all the alien races behind them were like this, it would be better to understand them before going in deeper.
"Heavenly Thunder Seal."
Before he got close, Lei Ming's hands began to form a seal. Silver light flashed in the sky, and an illusory Thunder Seal fell from the sky.
This was the Heavenly Thunder Seal, a Xiantian technique that Lei Ming had comprehended on his own after he transformed into a Xiantian realm expert.
The Thunder Seal fell, and flashes of lightning flashed, smashing onto the alien race with a loud bang.
Lightning had an obvious restraining effect on demonic Qi. As the Thunder Seal exploded, a piece of demonic Qi on the alien race's body was dispersed. The alien race let out a strange cry, and his red eyes fell on Lei Ming, surging with a cold light.
At this moment, Tyrant made his move. He shook his hand and shot out a golden light. The golden light turned into a Demon Subduing Pestle in mid-air. Under the control of Tyrant's spiritual thoughts, the Demon Subduing Pestle instantly became as big as a mountain and smashed towards the alien race.
"Bang!"
A loud sound was heard, and the alien race was smashed back a few meters, causing the earth to rumble.
As the alien race was pushed back, the rest took the opportunity to retreat far away. When they reached a safe distance, they did not even look back. However, there were some bold and curious fellows who wanted to watch the battle from afar.
Amidst the roars of dragons and tigers, the three alien beasts also rushed up and displayed their powerful attacks. During this period, they were supported by Lin Xue's green light and Wang Xian 'er's sharp sword radiance.
All kinds of attacks landed on the alien beasts, and sounds of energy explosions were heard continuously. Under the powerful Xiantian Martial Artists, the alien race was instantly suppressed and was forced to retreat.
Among the group, there were long-range attacks and close-range attacks. The alien race was completely helpless.
Zi Chen did not make a move. He was in charge of observing the alien race's every move.
From afar, the crowd was shocked to see how powerful Zi Chen's group was.
"Boom!"
Under the continuous attacks, the demonic Qi on the alien race's body was completely dispersed, revealing his true appearance.
If not for the two horns on his head, this alien race would definitely look like a human, just that he was a little too tall.
