The golden-scaled snake immediately found the most abnormal thing in the secret realm, coiled around Lu Bei's head and hissed. She Xuan looked at it in silence, and in a sense, she was not wrong.
But this is not a thing, and this is not a thing either, let’s explore it further.
Eliminate one correct answer.
The golden-scaled snake turned into golden light and escaped, rapidly shuttling through the secret realm. In less than half a cup of tea, it returned to Lu Bei's head.
That’s all. This is the only place that’s wrong in the secret realm. Everything else is normal.
The exploration reached a deadlock, and Fox Three raised his eyebrows: "Is it possible that the entire secret realm is abnormal, but because my second brother is too abnormal, this place seems normal."
"Jealousy makes you look hateful." Lu Bei curled his lips.
She Xuan didn't say anything, but snorted twice to show her attitude. In her opinion, the most abnormal person in the entire secret realm was Fox Three, especially that face that brought disaster to the country and the people. There was something wrong with it no matter how you looked at it.
"Forget it, let me try it!"
Fox San shrugged his shoulders, raised his hands, and sprinkled talisman light spots in the air. He tapped his hands continuously, deducing the numbers of the day, looking for the weirdness in the secret realm.
Soon, he stopped his useless efforts.
The secret realm is isolated from the outside world. If it could be deduced by destiny, it would have been dug out long ago, so there would be no chance for the three of them to take advantage of it.
But Fox Three did not gain nothing. He looked up at the dark sky and said, "The higher we go, the thicker the yin energy becomes... Ghosts cannot be born out of thin air. There must be something that gave birth to them or gave rise to them."
"Just go and take a look and you'll find out." Lu Bei jumped up and followed She Yan.
The three of them flew high into the sky, leaving the players who were clinging to their thighs staring at each other in amazement. In order to stop the loss in time, they didn't bother to complain and rushed into the surrounding darkness to look for lone ghosts.
Disappointments came one after another.
There are no light and gentle ghosts in the world of Jiuzhou. It is impossible for Nie Xiaoqian to complete a deal worth hundreds of millions at a time. The ghosts are all of casual appearance, and their dignity is worrying. Even Painted Skin is considered handsome here.
As a result, the secret realm exploration was influenced by the player's painting style and turned into a high-energy haunted house adventure throughout the whole process.
A few people with unique ideas turned on the live broadcast room function, holding a homemade baseball bat with iron nails, shaped like a mace, while interacting with the barrage of comments and completing side quests.
"I want to see the big sister from before, the one with the flat chest."
"Me too."
"Why a baseball bat? Where's the chainsaw? You don't even have a chainsaw. How dare you practice Taoism?"
"Isn't the UP host called "Everything has 0"? Why don't you combine with the ghosts? This is blatant discrimination. Damn it, when will the ghosts stand up?"
"It's hard to say when the ghosts will stand up. The UP host certainly can't stand up. Due to the restrictions of the game, these guys with yellow room blood are destined not to stand up."
"Tsk, so realistic it's meaningless..."
…
In the dark sky, the thick yin energy turned into a biting cold. Although there was no visible ice or snow, the temperature was no less than that of a cold winter.
At the very least, the three of them have reached the Spirit Transformation Realm. The mere coldness could not hurt them. The pervasive yin energy was also rendered useless because the three of them each had their own methods.
Fox Three has a robe, She Xuan's snake god bloodline belongs to the fire element, and her constitution is yang, and Lu Bei's innate sword body is flawless, blocking the cold and evil creatures from getting close to her.
Soon, the three of them arrived at the area where the yin energy was the strongest.
Lu Bei took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with golden light, his divine eyes saw through the hidden formation, and with one punch he pierced through the void, tearing down a gray curtain.
In the void, sixteen white beads were embedded, forming a circle, each one was as tall as a person.
Invisible power emanated, the twisted black void swallowed up vast power, the icy deathly aura was like a pool of stagnant water, and a huge round mirror reflected the figures of the three people in great detail.
"This is… "
Lu Bei looked at the sixteen white beads and said unsurely, "I've seen it before. It's the one-eyed ghost python. It's said to have the ability to communicate with the underworld."
"Oh, second brother, have you seen the Ghost Python before?"
Fox Three was surprised. With Lu Bei's common sense in the world of immortal cultivation, he could actually recognize the Ghost Python. He said in amazement: "As far as I know, the Ghost Python is a vicious beast unique to the Far West. We don't have that kind of monster in Wu Zhou."
"It was just a coincidence. I didn't mean to do it."
Lu Bei was speechless for a moment. There were indeed no ferocious creatures from the Far West in the Wu Zhou territory, but some people were bored and artificially created alien species to invade.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but wonder if his cheap master Mo Buxiu had checked in here.
This old guy has a long history of bad deeds and a long criminal record, it's hard not to be suspicious of him.
She Xuan pointed at the mirror, which was calm but chilling, and said, "If this is really the one-eyed ghost python, then what's behind this..."
The underworld is the place of death.
The legendary kingdom of the dead, where all life is cut off and where life finally ends.
The three of them were silent, and tacitly agreed not to go in and take a look. Fox Three said to himself, "No matter what is behind, we have found the source of the dense Yin energy here. If my guess is correct, the reason why ghosts and monsters have been breeding in Fentou Mountain for many years is probably because of the eyeball of the Ghost Python."
"Break it!"
Without even a second thought, Lu Bei drew out his Suchen Sword and started to fight, and then...
He looked at Fox Three who was expectant, and said in surprise: "Brother, why didn't you stop me? If the formation is broken, the Yin Qi will increase instead of decrease, wouldn't I have made a big mistake?"
"Yeah, it's all your fault."
"… "
Lu Bei rolled his eyes, reached out his hand, opened his own little world, and took away the sixteen giant white beads one by one.
Ripples appeared on the mirror surface, and the passage leading to the Yellow Spring Death Land faded rapidly. The thick yin energy lost its backbone and slowly settled downwards.
Just then, a loud shout rang out.
"Who dares to ruin this old Taoist's chance?"
The void was torn apart, and a short old man with a white beard jumped out. He looked at the disappearing Yellow Springs passage, his face suddenly darkened: "I was wondering who it was, it turns out to be the henchmen of the Wu Zhou court. All of you have come out in full force, and you all should stay here together today!"
The old Taoist was no more than five feet tall, with a neatly trimmed beard and decent clothes. The only thing was his pair of long arms that hung down to his knees, which looked quite strange.
The old Taoist came so suddenly that no one, including Lu Bei, noticed where he came from.
Fox Three examined his figure and appearance, shook his head slightly at Lu Bei, and transmitted a message to indicate that he was not familiar with him, and that there was no such person on the Wu Zhou wanted list.
There is indeed something strange about the secret realm!
Lu Bei narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking to himself that he had come to the right place. He stared at the old Taoist with his golden pupils and confirmed that he was only at the great perfection of the Refining Void Realm, and was not even one major realm ahead of him. He sneered three times and raised his hand to grab the other party.
Under the charm, the five fingers manifested the phantom of a majestic mountain, rumbling and covering the sky, sweeping away the dark clouds, and instantly oppressing the old Taoist's face so red that it turned like pig liver.
He looked at Lu Bei in surprise, thinking that after ten years of seclusion, the Purple Guards of Xuanyin Division had actually reached such a level. It was time for him to go out for some fresh air and see if the weather outside had changed.
Under heavy pressure, the old Taoist bit his tongue, stretched out his two long hands, and used magic formula to activate an illusion. A hundred-meter-long giant sword materialized in the air, soared into the sky, and pierced straight towards the big handprint with unstoppable force.
bite!
With a crisp sound, the illusion shattered, and the giant sword broke into pieces.
Lu Bei raised his hand and glanced at the white mark on his palm, then nodded with concentration: "Not bad, you have made great progress in Taoism, and you are barely a figure in the Refining Void Realm. It is worth it for this Purple Guard to use some real means."
"…" x3
Hu San and She Xuan fell silent. The old Taoist's face changed again. He took out the beast bag hanging on his waist, quickly untied the talisman rope, and released the ferocious beast he had raised for many years.
In an instant, thick black fog intertwined into ink, and roars that pierced through gold and split rocks arose one after another.
In the black fog, sixteen huge white eyeballs were filled with violent and ferocious light, and fine scales appeared and disappeared, causing turbulent air waves as they moved.
The ghost python that can reach the dark.
There are sixteen of them in total, and all of them are adult ghost pythons that have mastered their innate magical powers and can communicate with the underworld.
After releasing the ferocious beast, the old Taoist sneered three times, skipped the stage of making harsh words, lowered his body, and with a whoosh, he dived into the void and disappeared without a trace.
Just as when he appeared, he left without a trace.
Lu Bei's eyes glowed with golden light as he locked onto the old Taoist's escape route. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He put his five fingers together to form a sword and took a step forward to sweep out.
White light emanated, and immortal sword intent rolled down.
Sixteen ghost pythons were bathed in white light, and then they sensed the danger of death, and quickly spewed out black mist to escape.
Unfortunately, everything was destined to be in vain. The battle ended very quickly. The Immortal Sword Intent was like a white fountain pen, wiping out a piece of sky from between heaven and earth. The Ghost Python in it was no exception, and its body disappeared cleanly and neatly.
Fox San's eyes twitched as he watched this scene. He used to speak a little loudly to Lu Bei and he wondered if it was too late to correct it now.
She Xuan was slightly stunned. The gap was getting bigger and bigger. She didn't know how many times of dual cultivation would take to catch up.
"It was so dangerous. I almost destroyed the secret realm by using too much force."
Lu Bei wiped his cold sweat with lingering fear. Seeing that no one paid any attention to him, he waved his hand again in dissatisfaction, pointed out the hidden passage in the void, stepped into it and disappeared.
Hu San and She Xuan followed closely behind. The world was spinning in front of them. The sky and the earth changed their positions. The black sky turned into the vast black earth, and the sky was full of spectacular stars.
Lu Bei looked carefully and distinguished that the stars and the ocean were all phantoms. He spread his mind and soon caught sight of the old Taoist's figure.
Swish!
Golden light is everywhere.
When Hu San and She Xuan arrived, the old Taoist was no longer alive. He passed away very quickly, and not even his ashes were left. Only the experience stored in Lu Bei's warehouse was increased to commemorate the struggle of such a man.
The battle ended very quickly, and the old Taoist didn't even take a single sword strike. Naturally, the experience of killing judgment was really average, but the prompt for completing the hidden task made Lu Bei frown deeply.
[You completed the hidden mission: Gravekeeper, and gained 5 million experience points]
The gravekeeper again!
Lu Bei's face was solemn. He vaguely remembered that when he was in the secret realm of Four Gods Lake, Zhi Yuan was a grave keeper and was killed by him when he tried to get the Suzaku Heirloom.
It’s still the same question, what kind of organization is the Gravekeepers
"What's wrong, Lu Bei, is there something wrong?"
"I have never been wrong in my practice, but there are some things I can't figure out..."
Lu Bei muttered a few words, then shook his head: "Forget it, it doesn't matter if you can't figure it out for the time being, no need to force it, think about it later."
"Just now?"
"Just forget it."
