Chapter 595: Times Have Changed

"Chen ......"

Liu Yu stretched out his hand.

Before he could hold Chen Ran, he saw that Chen Ran's figure had already submerged into the bottomless abyss under the bridge.

"Alliance leader, what should I do?"

Seeing this scene, many warriors panicked and looked at Wu Xun one after another.

"Cross the bridge first, and then find a way to go down and have a look. "

"Brother Chen didn't die here so easily. "

Wu Xun said.

Although he looks very calm, however, this is only on the surface, in fact. He was already panicking.

The reason why he forcibly calmed down was because he knew that if he panicked, the other members of the Martial Alliance would naturally not be able to gather their minds.

At this juncture, he, as the leader, must not be chaotic.

Following Wu Xun's footsteps, the group soon reached the other end of the bridge.

Wu Xun and Liu Yu immediately began to think about how to safely descend to the cliff.

The cliffs here are not the same as those outside, and their aura will be very unstable when they touch it. If they went down from here, it would be like crawling on an oil-stained hillside, and the danger would be extremely high.

However, at this time, Wu Xun couldn't take care of it so much.

No matter how dangerous this trip is, he can't leave Chen Ran alone.

"Brother Wu. Why don't you let me go down. "

"You stay and look after the others and prevent anyone from attacking you again. "

Wu Xun saw it with his own eyes, and a pale hand grabbed Chen Ran's ankle and dragged Chen Ran to the bottom of the cliff.

Not to mention for the time being, what is the origin of this hand, if this is not his hallucination, then it means that there is a third party in the secret realm.

His purpose, of course, was to take the lives of their men.

Maybe it's the killers of the five major families hidden in the secret realm, or maybe it's someone else, it is indeed a very dangerous decision to leave others here without investigating the origin of the other party.

If Wu Xun and Liu Yu both go down to the cliff, and someone takes this opportunity to attack the others, the others will be more than lucky.

"Okay, I'll stay. "

"Brother Liu, you must be careful, if you can't do anything, come up first, and then we will think about it in the long run!"

Wu Xun admonished.

"Good. "

Liu Yu said that, and began to prepare to march down the cliff.

……

On the other side, after Chen Ran was dragged down, he immediately protected his body with his true qi, so that although he fell at the bottom of the cliff, he did not suffer any damage.

He could have dodged when that hand was at him.

However, Chen Ran didn't do that, but did what he planned, and let this hand catch him.

He wanted to see who was calculating them.

If the other party is also at the bottom. He just happened to kill it to prevent future troubles.

The scene at the bottom of the valley is not the same as outside.

Originally, there should have been lush flowers and spiritual trees growing here, but now, as far as I can see, it is all a withered glory.

Even, not a single mutated spirit grass was left.

It was as if it had been burned by fire for three days and three nights, and all it could see was a cracked wasteland, leaving no life behind.

"The spirit grass and other life force here have been sucked away by something. "

Chen Ran squatted down, grabbed a handful of soil, and pinched it in his hand.

I only felt that the soil in my hands was terrible dry, and there was no moisture in it.

The other spirit grasses also died because of this.

"Is there something?"

Chen Ran's gaze swept around, and soon, he found that there was a cave-like place not far away.

The only life force emanates from within.

Although it was very faint, Chen Ran could still clearly perceive it.

Then, he hurried in that direction.

After arriving, Chen Ran didn't expect that there was a person sitting in the cave.

No, to be precise, his limbs were pierced by chains, as if he had been crucified here.

"Who are you?"

Chen Ran frowned.

The man was covered in coagulated plasma, and looked like he had been dead for a long time. It's just that Chen Ran felt it, and there seemed to be a faint vitality in his body. That's why I stopped to ask questions.

"Another ......"

His lips moved, and then, hoarsely, he said, "Go back, here...... There's a cursed hilt ......"

"No mortal shall touch ......"

In the end, he seemed to be unable to hold it anymore, and hung his head and never spoke again.

"……"

Chen Ran saw that he was not moving, and began to walk forward.

But I saw that behind this person, not far away, there was a pure white sword hilt, stuck in the ground.

When Chen Ran approached, he felt a huge power fluctuation from the hilt of the sword!

"This is the so-called, cursed hilt. "

"Judging from this fluctuation of power, the one who turned all the spirit grass in this secret realm into this appearance is probably this sword hilt. "

"Could it be that the secret treasure in this secret realm is this sword hilt?"

"But what does it mean that mortals are untouchable?"

Chen Ran squatted on the ground, staring at the hilt of the sword on the ground, and did not rush to pull it out.

It's just that after a while, Chen Ran still didn't see the reason.

Just as Chen Ran was concentrating on studying the hilt of the sword on the ground. Visions emerge.

If Chen Ran turned his head, he would definitely be able to see that the man who was sitting on the ground, who originally looked like he was dead, suddenly opened his eyes.

And then his head. Slowly twisted one hundred and eighty degrees, and in a strange posture, he looked in the direction of Chen Ran.

This posture is like twisting the neck, otherwise, normal people will not be able to twist their necks so terrifyingly no matter what.

When he raised his hand, there was already an extra knife in the palm of his hand, a boning knife.

At this point, his blade was aimed at the place. It was Chen Ran's neck.

"Forget it. "

Just when he was staring greedily at Chen Ran's flesh and blood and was about to make a move, Chen Ran suddenly sighed:

"I still can't think of the origin of this hilt. "

"Let's get in the way first. "

With that, Chen Ran raised his palm and swung out a sword qi.

In an instant, the man behind Chen Ran only felt a pain in his wrist.

The next moment, his entire hand holding the knife was pierced by the sword qi and slipped to the ground!

"You...... How did you find me? "

The man covered his severed hand in pain and looked at Chen Ran incredulously.

He's confident. His breath-holding efforts are seamless, and it is impossible for others to notice.

When he was about to make a move, he didn't make any sound.

Normally, it was impossible for Chen Ran to notice that he was about to make a move behind him!

Moreover, judging from Chen Ran's unfazed movements, he seemed to have already seen that the other party had a problem.

Therefore, when I started, I did not hesitate at all, and I was extremely decisive!

"If you were a prisoner who had been here for a long time, the blood scabs on your body would not be like freshly formed. "

"Moreover, none of this blood is yours, there is no breath of you on it, it is the person you killed not long ago, and it was smeared on yourself, right? "

Chen Ran looked at him and said expressionlessly.

"That's where you found out?"

The other party was shocked, he didn't expect that the insight of the person in front of him would be so keen.

"Sort of. However, even if there are no two of these things. With your ability, you can't hurt me. "

Chen Ran shook his head.

Although he didn't understand what the origin of this person was.

However, this person is indeed a family that appeared with the hilt of the sword, and did not come out before. I'm afraid that someone else came here and was killed by him in the same way.

"Hehe, what if you get it?"

"I'm not afraid to tell you that Lao Tzu was the god-killing man Tu Zhao Ren who single-handedly covered the sky in the Central Plains martial arts world a few decades ago!"

"Although now, I Zhao Ren's strength. It's not as good as before, but it's still more than enough to kill a few of you little martial arts juniors. "

As he spoke, he glanced Chen Ran up and down, and couldn't help licking his lips: "Boy, you just obediently let me suck the flesh dry." Be my nourishment for breaking the seal!"

"I see. "

After hearing this, Chen Ran seemed to understand something, and said with a smile: "It seems that the meaning of the existence of this sword hilt is to seal you here." "

"It's just that, for some reason, there is a crack in the seal, but it gives you a chance. "

It's also interesting.

The villain in front of him who called himself a human slaughter was in the name of "benevolence", which really looked extremely ridiculous.

"You're right. "

"Unexpectedly, your kid's brain is quite flexible...... Back then, Lao Tzu was sealed here by the owner of this sword hilt. "

"Hmph, the so-called righteous people are also a group of incompetent people, back then, they couldn't kill me, so they used this method, wanting me to survive but not die. "

"It's a pity that they didn't expect that after so many years, Lao Tzu would still have a chance to see the light of day, and moreover, they could use them to seal my sword hilt as bait to tempt one after another, ignorant descendants who want to get the inheritance, to give me nourishment to restore my strength. "

"When Lao Tzu swallows you, you will almost be able to go out, and when the time comes, I will monopolize the inheritance in the hilt of the sword, and it will be just around the corner for me to Tu Zhaoren to regain control of the rivers and lakes, hahaha!"

Zhao Renwei laughed.

Chen Ran also smiled: "Really?"

Then, he stretched out his index finger and shook it at the man in front of him:

"It's a pity that times have changed, and even if you go out now, you can't be as alone in martial arts as you were back then. "

"The bottom line is that you're unlucky. "

Zhao Ren was stunned.

Then asked, "What do you mean." "

Chen Ran showed a smile that he couldn't understand, and said lightly: "You met me." "

"……"

Zhao Ren was silent for a moment.

Then he laughed out loud: "What's the matter, boy, do you think that if I Zhao Ren doesn't have the strength of the whole day, I won't be your opponent?"

"A self-righteous back like yours, Lao Tzu has killed an unknown number of them!"

"Die for me!!"

With that, his body shook.

The chains that were originally inserted in his limbs clicked, and they were all pulled out, all of them were forced in the direction of Chen Ran!
