"A traitor who can fool the Knights' Palace?"

Chen Ming looked at Corvette with interest, and gently placed the water cup in his hand on the table, "I'm really curious about what kind of person he is." ”

"If you want to meet, I can arrange it. ”

Corvette said respectfully, "But this is a scandal in the palace after all, so the young master should not say it......"

"See him?"

Chen Ming thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Forget it, the hall master is my top boss, whatever you say is what it is, I have no right to interfere." ”

He stood up and walked out the door, "I don't want to worry about this time, but I don't want anything like this to happen again, after all, ......"

He stopped, and after a moment, he stepped forward again, "My life is not always so good. ”

Looking at the back of Chen Ming leaving, Corvette's forehead was covered with a trace of cold sweat, and on the young man's body, he seemed to see a young man standing behind him, and that pure smile brought people despair like an abyss.

Stretching out his hand to wipe away the cold sweat, Corvette was silent for a long time before muttering bitterly, "Lord An Mixiu, you can kill me......

Walking out of the knight's hall, Chen Ming turned his head and looked up at the tall building behind him, and the people who came in and out were all wearing armor and walking in unison.

"An Mixiu, what do you want to do?"

Softly retracting his gaze, Tatsunaku's gaze was deep, and from the moment he saw Corvette, he guessed in his heart that this mission was a trap specially designed for him by the high monarch.

He couldn't see through An Mixiu's thoughts, but he could understand the latter's approach, just as he understood An Mixiu's character, An Mixiu also understood his character.

Paying even the price of his life for some irrelevant people, even angels, rarely have such a sacrificial spirit, An Mixiu knew that he would stay behind the palace.

"In the dignified Demon Palace, there will be a betrayer, but fortunately I will not die?"

With a sneer, Chen Ming left the place and walked towards the portal in the front hall, "The bright and sinister land is more sinister than hiding and tucking in, and it catches me off guard even more." ”

Coming to the front hall, Chen Ming turned on the teleportation magic that left the Demon Palace, and now his ghost pattern brand has not been completely resolved, and he is unwilling to see Shaqiluo in this state, so he left.

Looking at the peculiar colorful tattoo on the wrist, the brilliance of the tattoo has dissipated, and the tattoo is showing signs of fading.

"About three days to go......"

After a little calculation of the time, he knew that there were only three days left before the complete rampage of the ghost pattern.

The seal of the Heavenly Demon is very strong, but the Black Rabbit was already seriously injured when he activated the seal, and it was only a seventh-order magic power, so it could not fully pull the power of the seal, not to mention that Chen Ming's rampaging magic quality had surpassed some powerful eighth-order demons.

Opening the magic array back to the Temple of Despair, Chen Ming left the range of the Demon Palace, and with the flickering of light, he landed on an empty flat ground.

"Natsumi. ”

Chen Ming called softly, and a thin deacon figure appeared in front of him, saluting, "Young Master, welcome back." ”

Chen Ming nodded and asked, "Is An Mixiu at home?"

"Nope. ”

Natsumi shook her head and said, "My lord came back and left again. ”

"Did he tell you anything?"

Taking a step, the two walked towards a tower-shaped building not far away.

Natsumi replied, "Your Excellency only said that he will appear when you need him. ”

Chen Ming frowned, but he didn't ask anything more, walked into the building, and opened the teleportation array back to the main hall.

The Temple of Despair in the middle of the night, as silent and quiet as ever, even if there is a lively place, it does not seem to belong to the scope of the main hall.

Standing in front of the window and looking outside, Chen Ming said, "The huge palace, but there are only a few residents, is it a little too boring?"

He shook his head helplessly, "What do I care about all this?"

Leaving the window and lying flat on the warm and comfortable bed, Chen Ming put his hands on the back of his head, looking at the beautifully decorated ceiling in a daze, and fell asleep unconsciously.

At a certain moment, he suddenly opened his eyes and frowned, "Xia Mi." ”

"Young Master, what's the matter?"

The shadow reflected in the window on the ground shook for a while, and Natsumi asked respectfully.

Tatsu Ming got up and asked, "Is there anyone else living in this mansion besides us?"

"No more. ”

Xia Mi shook his head and asked puzzledly, "Did the young master find anything abnormal? Because of the monarch's enchantment, I can't spread my magic power into the main hall, if you find anything, please tell me." ”

"Oh, nothing. ”

Chen Ming smiled and said, "Maybe I'm too nervous, you can go back and rest first." ”

"Yes. ”

After Xia Mi left, Chen Ming's face appeared contemplative again, and when he had fallen asleep just now, he vaguely felt a breath of life other than them, very faint, and fleeting.

"Could it really be that I feel wrong?"

Blankly looking down and thinking, he always felt that this breath was familiar, as if he had seen the owner of the breath before.

The curiosity in his heart drove him out of the room, and in the quiet house, there were many rooms, and no one lived with him except Natsumi, Xifa, and Maya, who had already slept.

Walking down the long hallway, his steps were light, as if he was afraid of disturbing the sleeping people in the other rooms.

Following the faint breath of life he felt just now, Chen Ming carefully searched for it.

"What kind of bull ghost and snake god is it?"

He opened room by room, searched carefully, but found no useful information, but as he went deeper and deeper, he once again felt the call of the breath of life.

"Who is calling me?"

Puzzled even more, he quickened his pace and walked towards the end of the corridor on the second floor.

"Why is the road broken?"

Looking at the white wall in front of him speechlessly, the doubts in Chen Ming's eyes were even stronger, he raised his hand and gently knocked on the wall, making a crisp "knock knock" sound.

"Is it hollow?"

Hearing the crunching sound, Chen Ming scratched his somewhat messy hair, and his intuition told him that behind this wall, there was the answer he wanted.

"But how am I going to get there?"

With one hand on his chin, he joked, "Demolished?"

"Wow ......"

As if afraid that the youth would suddenly tear down the wall, a twisted vortex appeared on that wall.

"I'm a little skeptical that this wall can understand what I'm talking about......"

Shaking his head in surprise, he was originally full of curiosity, but he hesitated at this moment, and his past experience told him that the phrase curiosity kills a cat is a great saying in life.

"An Mixiu once said that I can go anywhere here. ”

Although thinking like this, Chen Ming was still a little uneasy, and he called, "Xia Mi, Xifa." ”

"Young Master. ”

A man and a woman behind him appeared out of thin air and saluted Chenming.

With a casual wave of his hand, Tatsunami pointed to the whirlpool and asked, "Do you know that there is another place like this?"

The two glanced at each other, and both saw a trace of doubt in each other's eyes, Xia Mi shook his head and said, "We didn't know that there would be a space gate here, and this should be a space created by adults temporarily." ”

"A makeshift space?"

Chen Ming was stunned, "Aren't you curious, this space is a warehouse for storing things, or is it specially used to imprison others?

Hilfa was obviously a little moved, but was stopped by Xia Mi, who said, "We are curious about what is here, but the Lord did not give us permission to enter. ”

"I'm also the master here, and I can give you access to it. ”

Chen Ming laughed evilly and said, "Now I order you, come with me, to go in and find out." ”

After speaking, he didn't care whether Xifa and Xia Mi wanted it or not, he took a step into the whirlpool, and the two people behind him glanced at each other and walked in.

There was no light source in the dark space, but to the surprise of the three of them, there were their shadows on the smooth and smooth ground.

"Here, how can there be a sense of déjà vu?"

Chen Ming frowned and said, "In the abyss, there is no light source, and besides, there is no magic power......

The moment he stepped here, Chen Ming noticed that there was no magic here, and even at a certain moment, he had the illusion of returning to the abyss, but the magic flowing in his body told him that this was not the abyss.

"Young master, there seems to be something ahead. ”

When he was stunned, Natsumi pointed ahead and said, "Shall we go over and have a look?"

"Wouldn't it be a pity not to take a look?"

Chen Ming smiled slightly, and led the two of them towards the direction that Xia Mi was pointing.

"It's like a coffin......"

After walking for a while, Chen Ming finally saw the true face of the thing Xia Mi said, it was an extremely simple shelf, and on the shelf, there was a red wooden product that looked like a coffin.

The size of the coffin is not large, at least for an adult body like Chenming, it is not big, if you have to put someone in it, it should only be a child of three to five years old.

Walking closer, Chen Ming found that the shape of this coffin was very chic, with sharp curved barbs on the octagonal bulge, and many extremely complex patterns were engraved on the barbs, which stretched out to the whole body of the coffin along the octagonal as a whole, and outlined with bronzing.

The intertwined patterns form a pattern of a flower in the middle of the coffin lid, blooming like a living thing.

"This coffin doesn't seem to be a funerary thing in hell......

Xia Mi was also a little surprised, he had lived in hell for a long time, and of course he also knew the style and materials of the coffin in hell.

In hell, low-level demons are not qualified to bury their bodies in coffins, and only those nobles above the seventh rank who can be buried in coffins are eligible.

The coffins of the nobles were usually made of rare minerals such as crystal, obsidian, and ruby, and wooden coffins were not used at all, so he could be sure that this coffin did not belong to hell.

"Whether it belongs to hell or not, just open it and see. ”

Chen Ming smiled, and was about to reach out to open the coffin, but was stopped by Xia Mi for the first time, who said, "If there is no accident with this thing, it should be placed here by Lord An Mixiu himself, and we opened it rashly, is there something wrong?"

"An Mixiu once said that he has no secrets from me. ”

Chen Ming shook his head and said, "Besides, we just have a look, and we don't plan to destroy or take it away, so there shouldn't be any problems." ”

"This ......"

Xia Mi was still a little hesitant, but Chen Ming opened his mouth to persuade, "If there is anything that I will do, it will not involve you, besides, aren't you curious about what life can be treated so solemnly by An Mixiu?"

Xia Mi was silent, but the hand that stopped Chen Ming had been quietly retracted.

Chen Ming smiled slightly, rolled up his sleeves, and put his two hands on the corner of the barb, "Next, let me see what bull ghosts and snake gods are here." ”

With his exertion, a small crack opened in the coffin, and in the crack, a strong light emanated from it with an extremely rich vitality.

Chen Ming squinted slightly, dragging harder, the seemingly light coffin lid made Chen Ming feel like he was pulling a hundred-meter dragon.

Despite the heaviness, the intense curiosity seemed to give him endless strength, and the lid of the coffin was half pulled open by him.

After getting used to the bright light, Chen Ming opened his eyes and looked at the coffin with great excitement, but when he saw the person lying inside, his face turned pale instantly, and his eyes were glazed.

Xia Mi and Xifa, but they didn't have Chenming's painful look like death, and they still looked inside curiously, but soon, the two discovered Chenming's abnormality.

Xifa asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

Chen Ming didn't reply, just staggered back two steps, and almost fell to the ground, Xia Mi hurriedly stepped forward to help him.

Xia Mi frowned, looked at Chen Ming, whose face had changed greatly in an instant, and asked, "Does the young master know the villain in that coffin?"

Chen Ming shook his head, broke away from Xia Mi's palm, and stumbled towards the outside of the whirlpool, walking away, a hoarse voice echoing in this strange dark space, "Close the lid of the coffin, don't disturb her sleep......"

The sudden change of the young man made Natsumi and Xifa a little overwhelmed, they didn't know what kind of relationship the short girl in the coffin who seemed to be asleep had with their little master.

After a moment of silence, Shifa asked, "What now?"

"What else can I do?"

Xia Mi sighed and said, "The young master said not to disturb her deep sleep, then don't disturb it." ”

Carefully closing the coffin again, the two men left the dark space, and the moment they stepped out of the whirlpool, the wall returned to its original form, as if it had never existed.

When he returned to his room, as if he had drained all his strength, Tatsunato lay limp on the bed, one arm resting on his eyes, and tears passed through his ears like a waterfall, wetting his hair.

At this moment, he seemed to understand why An Mixiu asked him to go to Ounceville to hunt the bone dragon, and why he was asked to face the realm of life and death.

When perfecting the ghost pattern brand, An Mixiu once threw a few beads sealed with Chenming's experience into the River Styx, in order to attract the undead of those dead lives who had come into contact with him, and become the supply chain of the second batch of eternal brand power, feeding despair with despair, and letting despair give birth to despair.

All life in hell, after death, as long as the soul is not completely annihilated or imprisoned, will be pulled by the power of the river Styx, turned into drops of water into the river Styx, the abyss is located in hell, and it also belongs to the territory of hell, no matter how the life there is born, their souls after death will also merge with the River Styx, and the goblin girl named Xue Lei, the final destination of the soul, is the River Styx.

When he returned from his trip, An Mixiu had made him a wish, and this wish was to have Xue Lei reborn in hell.

Xue Lei's soul is imprisoned in Chenming's spiritual world, which is filled with an endless aura of despair, tormenting her and Chenming all the time.

And in order to resurrect Xue Lei, An Mixiu must save her from Chenming's spiritual world, and in order to successfully complete this move, he needs to open the ghost pattern brand that is a shackle.

The only one who can open the ghost mark is Chen Ming himself, and only when he is completely caught in a dead end, can he successfully release all the despair.

Although the method used by An Mi Xiu was extreme, there is no doubt that it worked.

As for why Xue Lei's soul was not left in the more accessible River Styx, but placed in Chenming's body, the reason for this was the monster living at the bottom of the River Styx, An Mixiu's former lover Hydra.

Hydra, who feeds on the waters of the River Styx, does not devour millions of undead for a day, and if Snow Lei's soul is placed there, no one can guarantee that it will be devoured by Hydra when.

It is difficult to preserve the soul taken out in advance, and it will take a long time to prepare a new body, and An Mixiu's good intentions are clearly revealed in Chen Ming's mind at this moment.

During the trip to the abyss, Chenming, Drake, and Xue Lei struggled to escape on the verge of collapse almost every day, facing the threat of death, and they all regarded each other as their last spiritual pillars.

Xue Lei's death undoubtedly dealt a big blow to Chenming, and after the trip ended, Drex was also sent to the Temple of Time by his own hands.

The trip that started in the name of hope finally ushered in a desperate tragic ending, and the unbearable An Mixiu gave Chen Ming a chance to make a wish.

He chose Xue Lei, not because he didn't want Drax to come out of the Temple of Time, but because he owed Xue Lei more than Drake.

The red moonlight shone on the weeping boy, and a low murmur echoed through the room.

"Now, Xue Lei, I'm almost done with your request......"
