448, shortcut

As dusk falls, the knife-headed ants weave through the jungle, searching for prey.

In groups of three or five knife-headed ants, they dragged the corpses of the mercenaries on the ground and threw them into their burrows, which would be the food they offered to the queen ants.

Interestingly, these knife-headed ants actually only move in a certain area, and as soon as they step into the area that is close to the inner courtyard of the holy temple, they will not cross the thunder pond by half a step, that is, Jiang Xiaofan and his party are standing in front of them.

Cui Hu secretly congratulated himself for the rest of his life, he walked quickly in front of Jiang Xiaofan, and said: "Although I am not familiar with you, but you saved my Cui Hu's life, from today on, as long as you are useful to me, you can just say hello." ”

"Me too, in the future, the mercenaries of the Star Mercenary Group will be the brothers of our Breeze Squad!"

"Our Earth Mercenary Group is too, and the Star Mercenary Group will be our brothers in the future!"

"And me!"

"I'm the same!"

......

These mercenaries also stepped forward one after another, clasping their fists at Jiang Xiaofan, casting a grateful gaze,

Jiang Xiaofan secretly smiled bitterly, maybe it was because of himself that they became a foil and were sacrificed, Jiang Xiaofan really felt a little unbearable.

"Don't say more brother, anyway, everyone just wants to live, it's just a gesture. ”

Jiang Xiaofan looked at the sky and said: "It's getting dark, it's too dangerous for us to rely on our little men, let's go northeast, we will definitely find a large army." ”

After that, Jiang Xiaofan led everyone to the large army.

He knew that Li Zheng wanted their own lives, but for their own safety, for the safety of these mercenaries behind them, Jiang Xiaofan also had to take them to follow the big team.

Just when Jiang Xiaofan was about to leave, the figures of the god of water and the god of fire suddenly appeared in Jiang Xiaofan's sea of mind, and the god of water laughed and said, "I didn't expect us to come here one day." ”

As soon as he saw the ice god and the fire god appear, Jiang Xiaofan was even more sure that this must be the tomb of the ice god, even if it wasn't, it must be related to the ice god!

So his consciousness immediately condensed in the sea of mind, and he stepped forward with a smile and said, "Water God, do you know here?"

The water god laughed and said, "How can I not know, this is the woman's home, but I didn't expect it to become like this now." ”

"Home, I heard the young city lord of Silver Frost City say that this is a powerful temple of the Divine Palace Mountain, how did it become a home again?" Jiang Xiaofan asked weakly, obviously in order to get his words out, he could only pretend to be an idiot who didn't understand anything.

This trick was very useful to the old guy of the water god, and he immediately said proudly: "What kind of powerful temple, our nine gods were all worshiped by this large number of temples before the Linghui Realm. The ice god is cold, does not eat the fireworks of the world, there is only such a temple, when she is not in the shrine mountain, she lives here, so this is not only a temple, but also her home. ”

"I see!"

Jiang Xiaofan looked suddenly enlightened, looked at the water god with a look of admiration, and said: "It turns out that the nine gods are so powerful, they all have their own temples, no wonder the old man of the water god are so handsome! Then about this temple, I have a question I don't know if to ask......

The ice god was praised by Jiang Xiaofan, with a bit of spirit in his eyebrows, he said: "Ask! I have been to this place several times, I know everything!"

The god of fire stood aside and looked at the appearance of the god of water, holding his forehead and shaking his head, looking like a fool. "Did you know...... Where is the Ice God Spirit Vein?" Jiang Xiaofan smiled and asked.

At this time, the water god suddenly opened his eyes and snorted coldly: "You stinky boy has a lot of thoughts!"

"You're really amazing, you can see through this little ninety-nine in my heart. Jiang Xiaofan rubbed his hands and grinned.

"That's it, I'm helping you anyway. ”

The water god waved his hand and said: "There is an underground secret room in the backyard of the ice god, and the former temple steward here is very good at running it, making a lot of oil and water, and finally sent it to the ice god's underground secret room, where the ice god's spiritual vein is located, I know a shortcut......"

"The shortcut? is it really fake? This is too godly! The ice god's underground secret room shortcut, how do you know?" Jiang Xiaofan's eyes flashed with small stars.

The fire god snorted coldly on the side, and said: "The Ice Divine Temple is the only temple in the area of Silver Frost City, and it is the main god of rare elements, and the income is much more than the main god of our five main elements, and the combat power of the water element is not as domineering as thunder and fire, and there is no wind and earth's strong defense, so this old guy is the poorest of the nine gods, and often goes to the ice god to borrow money, the ice god is not good at money, and the treasures in the secret room are almost taken by him, so he naturally knows the secret way." ”

When Jiang Xiaofan heard this, he also had a burst of contempt for the water god in his heart, but it is no wonder that the water god, taking the two elements of water and fire as an example, even if the fire element is a low-level control, it can also play a good battle additional damage, but the water element is difficult to form a one-hit killing existence, and it needs enough martial support to win by quantity to highlight its power.

Therefore, the energy of this water element is really weak in the early stage, but it is not brilliant compared to the powerful element of Thunder Fire in the later stage, so Jiang Xiaofan chooses among the nine elements, and he definitely puts the water element in the last place anyway.

"Where, the power of the water element is amazing, I saw his power when I first met the water god, although it is only the tip of the iceberg, but it is enough for me to practice hard for a long time to catch up. Jiang Xiaofan pretended to be sincere.

"The child can be taught~"

The water god nodded with satisfaction, and then said to Jiang Xiaofan: "You go to the northwest, where is there a stone platform, there is a hidden well hidden under the stone platform, you can enter the secret passage leading to the secret room, you come with your ears......"

At this time, Jiang Xiaofan leaned his head over, and the water god whispered a few words in his ear, obviously not wanting the fire god to know his little secret.

After Jiang Xiaofan heard this, he nodded again and again, and then the water god was full of praise, and then the whole person disappeared into the sea of meaning, after all, the words were all set out, why did Jiang Xiaofan stay here?

Seeing Jiang Xiaofan walking so fast, the Fire God shook his head and smiled, "You trust this kid so much." ”

The water god spread his hands: "His character is not bad, besides, there are only two years left before the catastrophe, we can't afford to delay, we will see the water god in a while, and the two of us have to meet, otherwise with that woman's serious temperament, this kid will basically die or walk out of this Bixia Valley." ”

"It's also ......"

The two of them then dissipated, hidden in the chaos of Jiang Xiaofan's sea of mind, and everyone was moving forward, at this time Jiang Xiaofan suddenly stopped, which made Cui Hu ask with a puzzled face: "Jiang Fan, what's wrong with you?"

Jiang Xiaofan said to Cui Hu: "What, you go first, I suddenly couldn't find the jade pendant that my mother gave me, maybe it fell there when I was resting just now, I'll go and find it, you go first, I'll catch up in a while." ”

"Then let's go together!" Cui Hu did not have the slightest doubt about Jiang Xiaofan's words.

Zhao Jin stepped forward at this time and said: "Everyone is tired for a day, why don't we both accompany him, you go first, our strength is here, and the ant colony will not approach, you can rest assured." ”

"Okay, then we'll go first, and you can catch up quickly. "Fighting desperately with the knife-headed ants, everyone's martial arts are very seriously consumed, and tomorrow may not be easy, at this time it is indeed necessary to meet with the large army early and camp to rest.

If you are not fully prepared and face tomorrow in the best condition, the closer death will be to you.

After chatting a few words, everyone moved towards the northeast according to the original plan, but Jiang Xiaofan's goal was in the northwest.

Seeing everyone leave, Zhao Jin bumped Jiang Xiaofan with his elbow and said, "Do you have any ideas?"

"Hehe, coincidentally, I just learned a shortcut to enter the interior of this holy temple, you go with me!" After speaking, Jiang Xiaofan couldn't wait, and ran quickly towards the northwest direction.

All the way forward, it didn't take long for Jiang Xiaofan to see some broken stone pillars!

These stone pillars are towering, although the stone pillars are full of cracks, and a huge part of them are buried in the earth, only leaking out about three or five meters high, but there is still no phenomenon of collapse, this is the stone platform that the water god said, and it is also the altar of the Ice Sacred Temple.

The stone pillars surround the altar, and there are five in all.

Zhao Jin looked at these stone pillars, touched them with his hand, and actually felt some spiritual power contained in them, and then his palm was directly bounced away.

Jiang Xiaofan said with a smile: "These stone pillars were mined from the Divine Palace Mountain, two thousand years ago, the demon clan invaded the Linghui Realm, and it was to use hundreds of soul suppression pillars cast by these stones to suppress and seal them all, although these five stone pillars are just leftovers, but they also have a strong spiritual power, and ordinary mortals can't bear it at all." ”

Yi Xia opened her mouth and said incredulously: "Xiaofan, you know a lot. ”

"You kid, I think it's good, it's really amazing. Zhao Jin gave Jiang Xiaofan a thumbs up.

"Stand here and don't move, wait for me for a while. ”

After that, Jiang Xiaofan walked directly to the middle of the five stone pillars, and he closed his palms together, prompting the power of the water god spirit vein in his body, and in an instant, the water element was mobilized around his body, and the water in the ground was concentrated by Jiang Xiaofan, surging underground!

When the water flow accumulated to a certain extent, the five stone pillars instantly became like a force accelerator, directly enhancing the water element in the five stone pillars, and then there was a rumbling sound under the earth!

Jiang Xiaofan hurriedly dodged and jumped off the altar, and then a huge column of water rose from the ground, directly washing away the soil covering the altar in an instant!

Waiting for the water to disperse, a huge straight crater appeared in the center of the five stone pillars!

The three of them stepped forward and looked inside, and the altar used to be above ground level, but now it is buried dozens of meters deep underground.

"Let's go!"

Jiang Xiaofan grinned and jumped down first!

Zhao Jin and Yi Xia glanced at each other, and they also followed.

......

In the distance, Nangong Huan felt a powerful fluctuation of spiritual power, and he immediately looked at the west!

At this time, I saw Cui Hu coming over with fifty mercenaries, all the mercenaries felt incredible, they were able to come back alive, and Li Ju and Qin Rong kept looking for Jiang Xiaofan's figure in it, but after they didn't find it, they all breathed a sigh of relief!
