In the barren ancient forbidden land, the vigorous branches of ancient trees stretched in all directions like horned dragons, and every old tree towered into the sky like a hill. The old vines that are as thick as water tanks are like giant snakes, each of which can wrap around a mountain, vigorous and powerful.
If you don't know the details and see the lush vegetation and vitality here, you will definitely think it is a piece of pure land. However, if you look closely, you will soon find anomalies. In the huge forbidden area, no birds or beasts could be heard, no trace of ants and insects could be seen, and it was so quiet that it was almost dead silent!
This time, the three families joined forces, selected carefully, and did not bring many monks, only a total of more than 80 monks.
"There are nine holy mountains in the deepest part of this forbidden zone of life. The three of us will move forward separately, and then we will each climb up to one of the holy mountains, so as to avoid uneven distribution of the harvested magic medicine." Xu Daoling, an old knight of the Shaking Light Holy Land, suggested this.
A total of thirty or so people came to the Holy Land of Waking Light, all tall and tall, and all of them were riding on strange beasts, all of which were huge and powerful beasts. Because, whether it is a monk or a monster, after entering this place, the source of divine power will be imprisoned, making it difficult to display magical powers, and the stronger the body, the more dominant it is. People from the Jiang family and the Ji family also rode wild beasts with extraordinary talents, all out of this consideration.
The Jiang family brought over twenty strong men, and the leading old man, Jiang Hanzhong, sat on a golem covered in black scales, and said with a smile: "Brother Xu's words are wrong, this place is full of unknown dangers, we It’s best to go forward together, I think even if we only climbed a holy mountain, the magic medicine we picked would be enough for the three of us to distribute, almost no one has succeeded in all these years, we can’t disperse our forces.”
After saying this, Jiang Hanzhong glanced at Ye Fan inadvertently, and a strange color flashed in his eyes. Ye Fan's heart suddenly trembled. He was extremely sensitive to the members of the Jiang family. Two years ago, the knights of this family chased him down.
The old knight Xu Daoling of the Shaking Light Holy Land shook his head and said: "I think the most terrifying thing in the forbidden area is the power of the curse. Even if all of us gather together, it will be of no use. We might as well go forward separately, maybe we can have our own opportunities. "
Jiang Hanzhong, the elder of the Jiang family, showed a playful smile, glanced at Ye Fan, and then said: "Our Jiang family only has about 20 people here, and the manpower is short, and we are a little thin. I want to borrow a few people from Brother Xu."
Ye Fan's whole body was covered by the divine iron armor, even his head was covered tightly by the helmet, leaving only a pair of eyes outside. At this moment, he knew that the people of the Jiang family recognized him, and there must be the knights who chased and killed him back then.
Xu Daoling, an old man in the Holy Land of Shaking Light, learned that Ye Fan had taken the holy fruit and was more capable of resisting curses than others, so he planned to use him to pick the magic medicine in the forbidden area. reject.
Ji Yunfeng, the old man of the Ji family, watched with cold eyes. He sensed that the two people in front of him were hiding a secret. He said calmly, "It's too early to say these things now. It's not too late to make a decision when we really reach the depths of the restricted area."
The other two took his advice and moved on. At the beginning, everyone didn't feel anything, but after traveling for more than ten miles, everyone felt that something was wrong.
"The source of divine power in my body is no longer surging, it is about to disappear..." A monk of the Jiang family was the first to scream out.
"My spring of life is closed, and no more divine power flows out." A strong man in the Shaking Light Holy Land also changed his color.
Everyone's faces became ugly, life energy no longer appeared in their bodies, and even the sea of bitterness was slowly drying up.
"What are you panicking about? This is something that has been expected!" Jiang Hanzhong, the elder of the Jiang family, shouted coldly.
Ji Yunfeng, an old man from the Ji family, also said, "It doesn't matter if the source of divine power is dry, you don't need supernatural powers here, as long as you can withstand the power of the curse."
At this moment, Ye Fan felt that the vitality of the spring of life had weakened a little, but it was not exhausted, and it was still gurgling. And the golden sea of bitterness, although a bit dim, has not dried up.
"Could it be that after the potential of the ancient holy body is drawn out, it can resist the evil forces here?!" Ye Fan thought to himself, it was difficult to calm down, and now he has a strong enough trump card, which is definitely a killer.
Zhou Yi, Lin Jia, Wang Ziwen, Li Xiaoman, Zhang Ziling, and Liu Yiyi also sat on the strange beast and followed in the team. Several knights were in charge of protecting them.
After advancing for more than 20 miles, many wild beasts roared, feeling very uneasy, and one of the most vulnerable beasts trembled, lying on the ground as if sifting chaff, refusing to move forward.
The terrain ahead is gentle, with towering old trees and branches stretching high into the sky like giant arms. There is nothing unusual about it.
Everyone moved forward cautiously, no one spoke, and they all held spears and sharp swords, ready to charge at any time, and they couldn't use their supernatural powers, which was the only thing they could do now.
Walking more than 200 meters ahead, bypassing several ancient trees with a diameter of more than 20 meters, all the dozen or so mounts in the front stood up and overturned the monks on the ground.
Behind an ancient tree, a snow-white skeleton stood upright, facing the crowd, exuding a strange aura. All the knights retreated, clenched their sharp spears and swords, and pointed forward.
"There is no sign of life, no fluctuation of divine power, it's just a skeleton..." Several knights who were overturned by their mounts strode over and split the skeleton on the spot with the long knives in their hands.
However, something frightening happened. The moment their skeletons shattered, all the knights screamed. The god-iron armor on their bodies was originally radiant and impenetrable to swords, but at this moment it quickly dimmed, making a "click, click" The crackling sound continued, and finally it fell off quickly like a rotten old tree bark.
The knights' eyes were sunken, their flesh and blood were dry, and they fell down like dust. They seemed to have traveled through history, experienced thousands of years, and turned into fly ash in an instant, leaving only a white skeleton, heavy fell to the ground.
"Back!" Jiang Hanzhong, the old man of the Jiang family, shouted, "Everyone stay away."
Everyone felt a demonic force, and quickly backed away, and those mounts roared uncomfortably.
The scene just now was really frightening. The seven living lives turned into ashes in the blink of an eye and disappeared completely. This kind of death sent chills down the spine of everyone present.
There was silence ahead, and nothing happened, only seven bones were left, and even the god iron armor on them was shattered.
Ji Yunfeng, the old man of the Ji family, shouted: "Go around far away, if you find something abnormal again, don't act rashly!"
After walking through this ancient forest, a knight suddenly yelled in fear, "My hand..."
He was originally a young monk, but at this moment his palms were extremely rough, wrinkled, and completely lost their luster. He quickly took off the helmet, trembling, touched his face, and screamed on the spot.
Everyone was horrified. At this moment, the knight had wrinkled face, gray hair, stooped body, and his vitality had dropped sharply. He was almost dying of old age.
Next to them, several other knights also made old voices and yelled in fear. The same thing happened to them, everyone's old eyes were cloudy, and their lives would be in danger.
"Why..." One of the knights was hunched and trembling, the look in his eyes gradually dimmed, and then fell off his mount with a plop, completely dying of old age.
A moment later, several other old knights were also killed, falling to the ground, and they died with regret. And their mounts are also aging rapidly, no longer strong and powerful, all skinny, as if suffering from a serious illness, but these strange beasts live longer than humans after all, and they don't die of old age.
Ye Fan noticed that the dead people were all people who approached the white skeleton not long ago, and their mounts were frightened and overturned to the ground, which made him feel awe-inspiring.
Xu Daoling, an old knight of the Holy Land of Shaking Light, reminded in a deep voice: "The horror of the restricted area of life can be seen, everyone should not be careless, and must not act rashly."
The journey was very dull, no one spoke, everyone was restless, unable to predict life and death.
Ye Fan rode on the wild beast and carefully observed the vegetation in the mountains. He couldn't calm down, and found a lot of elixir, all of which were aged and had grown for an unknown number of years.
A dragon tongue shimmers with green light, as if carved from emeralds, it can hardly be called grass, it is about to grow into a green tree, with a height of two meters, the grass heart is like a small green dragon sticking out its tongue, shining brightly.
In a lake not far away, a jade lotus is even more brilliant. The nine lotus seeds in the huge lotus pod are as big as chicken eggs, crystal clear and green like jade, and you can smell the refreshing fragrance from a long distance away.
But the crowd didn't stop at all, they didn't have extra time to waste, otherwise, even if they successfully climbed the holy mountain and picked the magic medicine, they would die of exhaustion of vitality, unable to get out of this forbidden area.
A knight of the Jiang family rode on a wild beast with red clouds all over its body, came to Ye Fan, rode side by side with him, and taunted in a very weak voice: "Why didn't you run away, two years ago Aren't you running fast, hurrying like a stray dog..."
Ye Fan glanced at him and said, "I think you are more like a loyal dog. After more than two years, you can still smell me."
"You have a hard mouth. I don't know if you would dare to say that when I slowly slaughtered you." The knight sneered lightly: "I heard that you can't practice at all. You are so stupid and bold. When you die, you don’t know how you died.”
"Are you so convinced that you will eat me and let me die without a burial?" Ye Fan was very calm, without any anger.
"Do you want the Holy Land of Waving Light to protect you? Don't daydream, when the time comes, obediently collect the holy medicine for us, maybe you can leave the whole body behind. I think you should clearly understand in your heart that we can't let you leave alive." The knight named Jiang Feng showed a murderous intent, and said: "Of course, I can give you a happy, as long as you hand over that treasure, I will let you die without pain."
"Don't you think it's too early to say these things?" Ye Fan glanced at him lightly, and said, "In this ancient and forbidden land, it's hard to say who will live and who will die until the last moment, maybe I will break it." your neck."
The knight named Jiang Feng glanced at him contemptuously, and said, "Even though the source of my divine power has dried up temporarily, killing you is no different from trampling an ant to death, and it doesn't take any effort."
"You are very confident." A sneer appeared on the corner of Ye Fan's mouth, and he didn't say anything more.
With a cold smile on Jiang Feng's face, he said gloomily, "Three of the five knights who chased and killed you were here. We really want to chase you again, but of course the result this time will definitely be different. gone."
Going hundreds of miles deep into the restricted area of life, the nine holy mountains finally appeared in the field of vision. They were not so tall, but they were majestic, bringing endless pressure, as if nine heavens and ten earths were lying in front of them.
"That is… "
Everyone couldn't help gasping for air, and felt their scalps tingling. In the endless abyss surrounded by the nine holy mountains, countless white skeletons climbed up, densely packed and snow-white.
"How could this be?!" Everyone felt creepy.
"Most of them are people from six thousand years ago..." Ji Yunfeng, the elder of the Ji family, had a solemn expression on his face.
Xu Daoling, the old knight of the Holy Land of Shaking Light, nodded, and said in a deep voice, "That's right, it should be them. Those were the endless powerhouses who fell in the ancient abyss in the Holy Land of Immortal Sect back then!"
Ye Fan also felt chills all over his body. At this moment, he thought of the old lunatic, and the bones all over the mountain should be his old friends from the same school.
