There was silence.
The scimitar on Lao Daofeng's head rotated slowly, slowly, like a lazy and well-fed poisonous python, slowly moving its huge body.
The surrounding energy disappeared, and hundreds of small fireflies fell from the sky, circling and dancing around the crowd.
Far, far away, there was the dull sound of a mountain-opening thunder explosion.
The slave cannon fodder of the Golden Undead launched another attack.
Lao Daofeng squinted at Doria. After a while, he stretched out his hand, and a firefly stopped in his palm. The fluorescence on its tail flickered, illuminating a small piece of skin on his palm.
"My Blood Scimitar... I lost a group of elite men a few days ago." Lao Daofeng said solemnly: "Although we have received the rewards we deserve, the loss of those masters in the battle hall has still affected our strength. damage."
Lao Daofeng said in a deep voice: "So, in the past few days, we have not had a full-scale conflict with the Golden Undead. Instead, we have been reorganizing our troops and recruiting people to restore our damaged strength."
Doria smiled and nodded: "I have actually predicted your attack on the Golden Undead sniper team... This is the best excuse to start a war, and it is also the best cover... Who can believe the manpower you have lost? With so many people, how can we join forces with the Golden Undead?"
Lao Daofeng snorted: "That's the truth... However, we still lost so many good players... Let me see your sincerity and use your sincerity to exchange for my trust."
Lao Daofeng, who had been sitting on the big chair, stood up, walked step by step to Doria, and stared at his handsome face with squinted eyes: "You can't believe the pretty face, all the pretty faces in the world should die... So, How do you gain my trust?"
Doria smiled, and he opened the gold-covered animal skin book.
Golden runes about the size of a thumb jumped out of the animal skin book with difficulty. Gradually, these golden runes formed a golden square array above Doria's head that was more than three feet long and wide.
With a flash of golden light, all the golden runes exploded and turned into dots of golden light falling down.
A three-foot-long animal skin floated down from Doria's head. With a finger, a piece of white light lifted the animal skin and let it float in front of Lao Daofeng.
"This is an ancient ruins that I found through the art of prophecy. It just so happens that the entrance is on the territory of your Blood Scimitars." Doria smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed: "There are dangers here, but there are also great dangers. the benefits of… "
Doria took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "I vaguely feel that there is a treasure inside that allows you to break through the life pool realm and enter the next magical realm...Does this represent my sincerity? Can it be exchanged for you? Do you trust me?"
Lao Daofeng's body trembled slightly, and he looked at Doria with wide eyes in shock.
"My Blood Scimitar has been rooted here for hundreds of years... Every inch of the land here has been turned over by those rat cubs... Do you think there is an entrance to the ancient ruins here?" Lao Daofeng's tone became particularly serious. Sharp.
"Those rat cubs are not as useful as my prophecy." Doria looked at Lao Daofeng confidently: "How about we look for it?"
Lao Daofeng and He Weng looked at each other quickly.
The two people's eyes flickered, as if they were exchanging a lot of information with their hundreds of years of tacit understanding.
After a while, Lao Daofeng nodded slowly: "You have to go with us... Moreover, the Golden Undead are not allowed to take the opportunity to launch a full-scale attack... If they make any changes, you will be dead."
Doria nodded seriously: "I made an agreement with them when I came here. Unless I go back, they will not launch a full-scale attack... Of course, the harassment and attacks of those slaves will not stop. After all, we have to provide services to the surrounding neighbors." Look at the excitement."
Lao Daofeng laughed.
He pondered for a while and immediately named several people.
He Weng, Tang Qi, Niu Man and other senior officials of the Blood Scimitar were all left at the station by him, responsible for monitoring and guarding against the Golden Undead.
As for Wu Tie, who had just joined, and several masters under the direct control of Lao Daofeng, Lao Daofeng ordered them to set up an elite team and follow the route on the animal skin paper to find the entrance to the ancient ruins.
A very thin voice sounded in Wu Tie's ears: "Master Gun, your mission is to keep an eye on Doria at all times."
Wu Tie looked at Lao Daofeng.
The person who transmitted the message to him was clearly Lao Daofeng.
Let him, a newcomer who just joined, be responsible for keeping an eye on Doria
And let him participate in the excavation of the ancient ruins instead of staying outside to monitor the golden undead
Wu Tie secretly sneered. It seemed that Lao Daofeng's trust in 'Master Gun' was limited. After all... the timing of his joining the Blood Scimitar was too coincidental, and he appeared at this critical juncture.
Lao Daofeng did not let him stay outside, but put him under his nose. This was the right choice.
Especially letting him monitor Doria... To put it bluntly, this means that 'Gun Ye' and Doria are under everyone's surveillance at the same time.
If 'Gun Ye' sincerely joins the Blood Scimitar, he will naturally be able to curb Doria's abnormal movements.
If he and Doria colluded, if there was any change between him and Doria, Lao Daofeng would have brought so many people with him.
Shadows were everywhere, and the most elite troops of the Blood Scimitar were mobilized. They activated various bunkers and mechanisms in the Stone Pillar Forest, activated various warning settings, and even some formations that consumed huge amounts of energy. The Dharma has also been turned on.
The entire core area of the Blood Scimitar turned into a huge killing trap, and Lao Daofeng led Wu Tie and others all the way to the small lake beside the Stone Pillar Forest.
This small lake with a radius of more than ten miles is ordinary. There is an estuary below and several Yin rivers, so the lake is always full. There are a lot of aquatic products in it that can be fished all year round. It is the most important water source for the Blood Scimitar, and it is also a important food source.
Lao Daofeng and a group of old brothers destroyed the forces that originally occupied this place after a bloody massacre hundreds of years ago. After creating the Blood Scimitar, they placed their headquarters here.
For hundreds of years, Lao Daofeng has organized people to sneak into the bottom of the lake. However, except for some aquatic plants, a large number of fish, shrimps, turtles, and occasionally some water snakes and anacondas that came along the waves of the Yin River, there is no other place in this small lake. No other abnormalities.
Even the mouths of the Yin Rivers are only about the size of a meter in diameter. Even if there are terrifying giant creatures in the Yin River, it is impossible to enter the small lake through such small mouths.
So gradually, Lao Daofeng and the others also lost interest in this small lake.
But according to what was pointed out on the animal skin paper, the entrance and exit of an ancient ruins is deep in the middle of the lake.
Hundreds of elite warriors were carefully selected, and the weakest ones all had the cultivation of Sensory Realm. The group of people walked on the water to the center of the lake, and then Lao Daofeng pointed his finger, and a burst of sharp energy spurted out, forcefully A waterless channel with a diameter of tens of meters and reaching the bottom of the lake was opened on the small lake.
"Down there?" Lao Daofeng asked Doria in a deep voice.
"Down below... we have to dig thousands of meters of sand, gravel and rock formations, and then there are some barriers that I couldn't see clearly." Doria smiled: "But my prediction is definitely not wrong, it's just down here. .”
Lao Daofeng nodded.
He pointed to a rat man standing behind him. The rat man, whose fur was mottled and had gray-white skin covered with age spots in many places, nodded, slowly dropped down nearly a hundred meters, and stood directly. On the gravel at the bottom of the lake.
This rat man's aura has declined to the extreme, and his lifespan is obviously not long anymore.
However, his mana fluctuations are still strong, and it is clearly at the level of the first or second heaven of the Chonglou Realm. For a disadvantaged group like the rat people, being able to reach the Chonglou Realm is already very remarkable and a very good thing.
The mouse man recited a spell, and a gray-yellow sand breath spurted out from behind him. Amidst the rolling sand and gravel, a dexterous little mouse suddenly sprang out, and then burrowed numbly into the ground.
With a 'chi' sound, a circular pit with a diameter of more than ten meters and a wall as smooth as a mirror appeared on the sandy ground at the bottom of the lake.
Accompanied by the sound of "chichi", the hole extended straight downward, and in just a dozen breaths, it had penetrated more than 6,000 meters of sand, gravel, soil and rock formations.
There was a 'ding' sound, and the little mouse silhouette emerged from behind the mouse man and grabbed a smooth black stone with its paw.
A thin spark was splashed on the surface of the boulder, and then the seemingly extremely hard black boulder suddenly began to squirm like water waves. The little mouse phantom accidentally fell into the black boulder.
The rat man spurted out a mouthful of blood, and the rat hair that was already bald all over his body fell off in large swaths, and he was about to become naked without a single hair left.
"Boss... there is indeed a ghost down there." The rat man shouted loudly with his eyes wide open.
"Go down and have a look." Lao Daofeng's eyes were bright. He waved his hand, and the large group of people stepped into the void and fell rapidly downwards.
Doria stepped on a white light and followed closely beside Lao Daofeng.
A cloud of smoke billowed under Wu Tie's feet. He stayed close to Doria's side almost step by step, looking up and down at Doria with squinted eyes.
Perhaps it was because Wu Tie's gaze was too intense. Doria had always acted calm and indifferent, but after being stared at by Wu Tie for a long time, he finally couldn't stand Wu Tie's gaze. He turned around and smiled at Wu Tie: "I have no ill intentions towards the Blood Scimitar...I didn't deceive you..."
"Yellow hair is quite rare. Also, blue eyes are quite rare. Where are they from?" Wu Tie held the white tiger split in both hands and stared straight at Doria's handsome face.
Doria pursed her lips, and Wu Tie perfectly performed the performance of a straightforward, rude, and unreasonable half-dragon half-dragon.
Doria, who knew the characteristics of the dragon people, knew clearly that there was nothing to say to these barbaric people.
Sighing, Doria whispered: "Is it so important where I come from?"
"If you don't tell me, I'll beat you up." Wu Tie grinned: "Master Qian hates people who are secretive... If you are a man, just say it frankly... "
Lao Daofeng, who was leading the way and falling rapidly, narrowed his eyes and laughed.
He could clearly hear the conversation between Wu Tie and Doria, and he couldn't help but cheer in his heart for Wu Tie's words. For a pretty girl like Doria, pure violence is the way to go!
If it weren't for his identity, Lao Daofeng would definitely ask Wu Tie to beat Doria.
First, he beat him half to death, and then Lao Daofeng came forward to apologize, scolded Wu Tie for a few words, and gave the pretty boy a few gold coins to pay for the soup... Oh, everything was so perfect!
All pretty boys should be beaten to death!
Of course, as the leader of the Blood Scimitar, Lao Daofeng could not directly ask Wu Tie to do this.
With a straight face, Lao Daofeng and the others quickly fell into the hole dug by the rat man. Several Chonglou Realm masters of the Blood Scimitar stayed at the entrance of the tunnel. They used their magical powers to form a thick layer of ice on the entrance of the tunnel.
The lake channel that Lao Daofeng split open with his sharp energy collapsed. After the lake rolled for a while, it returned to normal.
A hundred meters thick lake water covered the entrance of the tunnel, and there was no longer any light inside the tunnel.
Wu Tie snorted, and flicked his left hand. There was a loud bang, and a large fireball with a diameter of about three meters appeared above his head, illuminating the surrounding area.
Several masters of the Life Pond realm around Lao Daofeng also took action almost at the same time. They released strange-shaped objects one after another, including lamps, torches, candlesticks, and braziers. These objects emitted strong light one after another, illuminating The entire tunnel was thousands of meters deep.
Many people glanced at the big fireball above Wu Tie's head.
Doria also nodded in amazement: "I heard that the dragon people are born with extremely strong abilities to control flames and magma. It's really good."
Wu Tie sneered proudly and stopped speaking.
What Doria is talking about is the fire dragons of the dragon tribe. Their ability to control flames and magma is innate. But the real dragon race is divided into many races, and what they are good at is not just controlling fire and magma.
But this has nothing to do with Wu Tie, he is not a real dragon man.
Everyone came to the bottom of the tunnel and came to the top of the black rock formation that was as smooth as a mirror.
Lao Daofeng shouted softly, and a werewolf in the Sensory Realm swung a mace and hit the rock formation with the stick.
After a loud noise, large sparks flew, and the sharp teeth of the fine steel mace broke. Then the rock formation began to squirm like water waves again. The mace in the werewolf's hand was suddenly sucked into the rock formation, and a huge force came from , the werewolf's body was pulled down and fell several feet. He hurriedly let go of his hand and watched helplessly as the mace was instantly swallowed up by the rock formation and disappeared without a trace.
"It seems that something is really weird here." There was a hint of fanaticism in Lao Daofeng's voice.
"There is a high probability that this place is an ancient ruin." Lao Daofeng was so excited that his face turned a little red.
Ancient ruins mean wealth, inheritance, and powerful power. In this chaotic world, they mean power and status.
Of course, ancient ruins are also full of dangers and full of all kinds of incredible existences.
When exploring ancient ruins, you must be mentally prepared for death.
"Doria, this is the entrance to the ruins... tell me, what should we do?" Lao Daofeng flew up a few meters and came to the same height as Doria, and asked Doria seriously and enthusiastically.
