Chapter Twenty-Three: The Land of Terror
Chapter Twenty-Three: The Land of Terror
When He Xi wandered around the training ground in Shadow Mist City, the meeting of the human world always lingered like a nightmare, which made him feel uneasy. That scene did not dissipate with the passage of time, the fear when a middle-aged woman ran to her eyes, the fear when she was pierced through her chest and pulled out of her heart, the hatred and despair in the eyes of the girl when she knelt beside her mother. The faces and expressions of the two of them were like ghosts walking beside He Xi.
He Xi didn't know how he could get out of this nightmare. He kept his head down, discouraged, and walked aimlessly like a living dead until he reached a turn and crashed into a man. He leaped backwards quickly, instantly pulling the cutlass out of his waist.
In front of him was Junmo.
"What do you think, so soulless. Jun Mo said worriedly, his worried expression showing his genuine concern.
"Nothing. He Xi didn't know if he could be uneasy because of this, and he replied expressionlessly. Now He Xi has seen the cruelty and cold-bloodedness of the demon clan from the bloodline, Jun Mo has participated in the slaughter of the ghost tiger clan, and it looks even more evil and unforgivable in his heart.
"If you have time, go to the practice room to learn again? Just like before, maybe you can easily defeat me now." After Jun Mo finished speaking, he patted He Xi's shoulder.
"No problem, happy to accompany you. He Xi replied.
The two of them didn't talk as much as they used to, and they didn't know what to say when they faced each other. What He Xi couldn't let go of was that after the Ghost Tiger Clan was slaughtered, the people of their Shadow Mist Clan never even let go of their children, which made him feel that the master he once admired was not much different from other people from the Demon Realm.
In a place of death on the northwestern border of the Rakshasa Kingdom, a demon scout team that detected magic crystals has disappeared here. In the days that followed, the investigators sent by the families volunteered to disappear after arriving at their destination. When the academy learned about this, the task of finding out this problem naturally fell on the heads of Ling Feng's trial team. So after receiving all kinds of supplies from the academy, they set out on the journey without fear.
After passing through a cave. Ling Feng and the others found that this place was different from other places in the Demon Realm, there was no light at all, and they couldn't see their hands in the dark, but fortunately, the people of the Demon Race all had the ability to see at night.
The invisible air flow slowly flowed around, like countless unjust souls crying here, looking eerie. When Ling Feng turned around, he saw that all the members of the trial team were looking at him, which made him instantly unnatural, and said solemnly, "The map shows that this is the place where the investigators of other families have disappeared, and looking at the appearance of this place, there may be creatures from other worlds cultivating here." ”
"Other creatures?" He Xi asked suspiciously.
"Although we are in the Demon Realm, we are not only the people of our Demon Race, but there are often races from other worlds who mistakenly enter the enchantment, such as those Krakens who love to sing, as well as our most common orc race, and so on. However, looking at the situation here, the creatures who stay here to cultivate should come to the underworld, and a large area around this area has all become like this, which means that this guy's cultivation is not low. Ling Feng explained.
After a short walk carefully. Soon, a dark hole appeared on the ground in front of the group. The entrance to the cave was surrounded by a plant that looked like palms, and it seemed to glow a faint green light in the night vision of everyone in the trial team.
A whisper of resentment slowly came out of the mouth of the cave, at first almost as soft as the sound of the wind, but it didn't take long for the sound to slowly become clearer. Like the eerie cry of the undead, the enchanting and moving female ghost calls, and as time passes, the sound coming from the mouth of the cave becomes denser and more terrifying. Although the members of the trial team are all elites in the demon race, for these young people, they don't know what kind of terrifying otherworldly creature will bring to them.
"Since I was a child, as a demon, I really haven't been afraid of anything. But why does this place give me a sense of fear that pierces my heart? Meng Yao said timidly. As a girl, although her strength is not bad, she is even much stronger than many men. But now this terrible situation has made her look like a delicate woman from the beginning.
No one responded to her words, and everyone was watching the hole in front of them warily.
One of the team members suddenly said: "Captain, what should we do now, there are several teams of big families here, do we still want to continue the mission." ”
Ling Feng raised his head, glanced at the trial team, and then said with some anger, "To be honest, it's the first time I've encountered a place like this like you. We don't know what's going to be inside this hole. But I want you to understand what you are doing at this time. No matter what creatures are hiding inside, we have to let them know that the great demons will never allow the species from the outside world to wreak havoc here!"
He Xi glanced at Ling Feng and couldn't help but feel sick in his heart. He once led the trial team to the human world to kill innocents, but as soon as the picture turned to the demon world, he became a hero who defended against invasion.
"Go, let's go down, all members, the time has come to prove your courage. After Ling Feng finished speaking, he took the lead and jumped down from the hole without hesitation. When the others saw it, they could only jump down one after another in desperation.
After they went down, Meng Yao instantly summoned the black flame in the air, making it spit out a small amount of flame illumination, and at the same time, having more power on his side would also make him feel more at ease. However, at this moment, everyone's hearts beat even harder, and if you look closely through the light emitted by the black flame flame, isn't it blood that is constantly flowing on the wall!
After the trial team landed, He Xi found that there was a black flame, and his heart was a lot more steady. Although Hei Yan is not owned by him, in the past few months, He Xi has established a good relationship with him, and he even feels that Hei Yan is a close friend of his.
After Hei Yan came out, he showed the excitement when he saw He Xi, and at the same time, He Xi couldn't hide the joy in his heart, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth. After the incident in the human world, he locked himself in his home on the grounds that he was unwell, so he didn't see Hei Yan for more than a month. If it weren't for the fact that the academy said it was tricky this time, he would have to go. Otherwise, he didn't know how long He Xi would stay at home.
He Xi and Hei Yan walked with Hei Yan when they landed, and the former didn't notice the pair of vicious eyes behind them at this time. Meng Yao followed behind them, holding the staff in both hands and looking around vigilantly, slowly moving forward, silently thinking in her heart: "This will be your graveyard, my chance has come." ”
