The group of people who suddenly appeared in front of everyone in the Dao Law Realm claimed to be from the "Zhang family", just to eliminate the monsters that plagued the world, but they were not the descendants of Heavenly Master Zhang Daoling, but there was no doubt that among them there were the most needed mage masters in the human world at that time, and there were even six or seven Heavenly Master-level mages, which was tantamount to a strong reinforcement, and the immature Dao Law Realm had no second choice, so they agreed to let them join, and they also showed jaw-dropping strength.

Regardless of men and women, every member of the Zhang family has personally stepped on the battlefield, when they are alone, they are stronger and calmer than any mage, and when they are with the clansmen, they are far from being able to meet the tacit understanding and courage of any mage, they are like they are born to fight, invincible all the way, their strength undoubtedly exceeds that of most Taoist families, and even the emerging family "Cang family" that rose during this period was suppressed by a head.

Uniting families and mages from all over the world, in just three years, the Zhang family suppressed the huge demon group, and discovered the largest spatial passage connecting the demon world to the human world. So Zhang Jia led the Dao Law Realm to force the demon group into the passage and sealed it with the help of the power of a bright pearl. But after all, there is no absolutely perfect seal in the world, in order to avoid monsters from running out of the passage by chance, the Zhang family laid a large formation at the passage and imposed heavy prohibitions as a buffer zone between the human world and the demon world channel, ensuring that even if the monsters leave the demon world, they will never be able to truly enter the human world. And when the formation was laid down, due to the disturbance of spiritual power, a large forest appeared around the large array, lush and green within the heavy prohibitions, and the sealed passage was completely annihilated by nature, and no one could find it anymore.

At this point, the number of monsters has finally been suppressed, the human world has gradually come out of the chaotic era, and the Zhang family has also moved to the huge forest to be responsible for guarding, which is now the "Demon Slaying Forest".

Day after day, year after year, the brave and warlike Zhang family gradually formed the current Shuzhou Zhang family, even if more than a thousand years have passed, the strength of this family has not faded in the slightest, and even got the "first family in the Taoist world" The famous name. For more than a thousand years, the Zhang family has continued to reconstruct the outer prohibition located outside the Demon Slaying Forest and the Zhang family's mansion, and the huge prohibition has become more and more solid, even to the point that no creature can enter or leave without the permission of the Zhang family, but for some reason, they have not strengthened the prohibition of the Demon Slaying Forest like the construction of the outer prohibition.

However, this did not become an opportunity for youkai to enter the human realm.

Many monsters who can pass through the space passage by chance under many coincidences first have to face a huge formation that is difficult to crack, if they can get out of the formation with great luck, the next obstacle is the ban of the demon slaying forest, although the Zhang family has not been constantly reinforced, but it is originally an extremely powerful prohibition, and it is not easier to leave than to crack the formation.

If the youkai can still get past this prohibition and leave the Demon Slaying Forest-

What awaits them will be despair from which there is absolutely no escape.

Outside the forest is the strongest family in the entire Dao Law Realm, how can it be possible to let the monster walk out alive?

In the first few hundred years, there were occasional lucky monsters who rushed into the Zhang family with hope, but after they were all easily cleaned up by the Zhang family, the remaining monsters finally felt fear, and they did not dare to find a way to step out of the demon slaying forest, and even wanted to return to the demon world again. However, I don't know how many chances it will take to come to the human realm, how can these monsters still have the same good fortune to return through the space passage again?

The monsters who have nowhere to go can only stay in the Demon Slaying Forest, as if they are living in a huge prison, and the guards of these "prisoners" are naturally the Zhang family who have guarded the Demon Slaying Forest for generations.

Looking at Nangong Piao, who was a little dry-mouthed, drinking the tea brewed in the cup in small sips, Zhang Longqian finally understood the origin of this demon slaying forest, and also understood what Nangong Piao meant by "prisoner" before.

“…… It turned out to be for protection, I said how could the Zhang family have such a large piece of land. ”

Zhang Long nodded subtly, although in her opinion, the Zhang family is simply asking for trouble by strengthening the outer ban, so there will be the consequences of the theft of the "Spirit Snake Bead" today, it is better to simply make the ban of the Demon Slaying Forest so that no one can enter and exit is the solution once and for all, but this is after all the decision of someone else's family, and she is not easy for an outsider to express her opinions, not to mention that no matter how unreasonable the Zhang family's approach is, people have indeed not let any monster run out, right? It's just this one trouble for more than a thousand years, so what else is there to say?

Thinking about it, Zhang Longqian didn't mention this stubble anymore, and asked Nangong Piao instead: "Speaking of which, what is that 'Spirit Snake Bead'?" Zhang Hanguang also said urgently, is that something very important? ”

"The 'Spirit Snake Bead' is a family heirloom treasure of the Zhang family." Nangong Piao explained softly, "During the Spring and Autumn Period, he rescued a big snake when he was traveling, and later the snake gave him a huge night pearl, which is the Spirit Snake Pearl. The spirit snake beads were extremely bright, and at that time they were even called the 'Spring and Autumn Two Treasures' together with He's Bi, and when they died, they were unwilling to lose everything and entrusted the spirit snake beads to Ji Liang. Later, when the monsters of the Five Hu and Sixteen Kingdoms were rampant, Ji Liang's descendants also suffered a catastrophe that was almost wiped out, and the Zhang family helped them at that time, so the Ji family gave the spirit snake beads to the Zhang family. Later, the people of the Zhang family discovered the power and function of the spirit snake beads, and since then the spirit snake beads have become the family heirloom secret treasure of the Zhang family, and they are also the top five rare treasures in the 'secret treasure book'. ”

Zhang Long was puzzled: "Even if it's very powerful, it's just the secret treasure of the Zhang family, but why do all of you seem to be worried?" ”

“…… Because the Spirit Snake Bead is also a magic weapon that can affect the entire Dao Law Realm. ”

Facing Zhang Longqian's inquiring gaze, Nangong Piao smiled bitterly.

"Sixteen hundred years ago, when the space channel was sealed, the Zhang family used the spirit snake bead, which was the 'key thing' of the space seal, without the spirit snake bead, the Zhang family would not be able to continue to maintain the seal, and the space channel would gradually open. What's worse is that the Spirit Snake Bead was originally a snake demon's thing, and no one can say whether other monsters can use it, and now it is a monster that has stolen it. In case ......" seemed unwilling to think about this possibility, Nangong Piao's voice lowered, "In case that youkai can use the Spirit Snake Bead, the spatial passage will be reopened in a short period of time." ”

Once the largest spatial passage connecting the human realm to the demon realm is opened again, there is no need to say anything about what will happen.

At this time, Zhang Longqian finally understood why everyone was so worried about the theft of the Spirit Snake Bead.

After finally figuring out the current situation, Zhang Longqian, who didn't know what to say, couldn't help but fall silent, and the air in the lounge condensed little by little, dull and depressing.

At this time, there was a slight "squeak" sound, Zuo Ling followed and pushed the door in, and met the eyes of everyone who immediately gathered, his face did not have the gentle smile he had always had, but looked a little serious.

"We're probably running out of time."
