Chapter 121: The Ancient City
Exiled Lands.
The sky gradually darkened, and the dead trees around them pointed lonely towards the sky.
"We need to get back quickly." Luo Cheng looked at the sky, his eyes a little worried.
Before leaving, he told Qingman that he would bring Wen Yuan and them back soon, but he didn't expect to encounter so many things along the way. Qingman must be very anxious when he is home alone.
The hazy light reflected the sand underneath and the ruined ruins in the distance.
Wen Yuan narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance, those gray-black shadows were very abrupt on the yellow sand, like a bunch of soldiers in thick armor.
Luo Cheng on the side saw his expression and explained: "It is an abandoned ancient city, it seems to have been left over from a long time ago, and it existed here when I first came here. β
"Is there anything this ancient city has to say?" Wen Yuan saw that Luo Cheng's eyes were very jealous, so he asked again.
"I haven't been in, but a lot of curious people have never come back. The only one who came back couldn't ask anything because he was crazy. β
Wen Yuan: "Doesn't sound good. β
Luo Cheng: "Some people say it's a cursed place, so let's walk around it later, although it will be delayed for a while." β
"Hmm." Wen Yuan nodded, no matter what, it's always good to be cautious.
At this moment, a weak voice came from behind him.
"The first two, you go slowly, there are still injuries here."
Duan Qianxiao's face was covered with dust, he covered his wounds and walked on the sand with difficulty.
It's miserable, it's miserable. Duan Qianxiao thought sadly, he finally saved people with kindness, but he was stabbed.
Wen Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, Luo Cheng stood up, and said to him, "Brother Qianxiao, do you need help?" β
"He doesn't need to." Wen Yuan immediately answered.
"Brother Wen Yuan, what do you think you are talking about, do you have a little brotherhood?" Duan Qianxiao was heartbroken.
Wen Yuan said expressionlessly: "Do you really have no strength?" β
"Really...... Yes! β
Duan Qianxiao's tail note suddenly rose high, because he found that a black shadow suddenly appeared behind the yellow sand, which was quickly passing through the wind and sand, and was attacking him-
"Don't let people rest for a while!?" Duan Qianxun said angrily.
His body moved, as fast as a gust of wind. Soon, he swept over countless sand dunes and came to Wen Yuan Luo Cheng's side.
ββ¦β¦ Can't you walk? Luo Cheng looked at Duan Qianxiao, who was walking like a fly in front of him, and was a little speechless.
Duan Qianxiao panted and said: "Special treatment in special circumstances, don't you see a monster behind, I really don't have the strength to fight, only this speed can be maintained." β
"He won't be able to walk anymore, most of the time it's pretended." Wen Yuan turned his head to Luo Chengdao.
He had already seen that because of his long-term martial arts training, Duan Qianxiao's physique was much better than that of ordinary people. Coupled with the special exercises of his sect, his self-recovery ability is also the best. It can be seen from the fact that he was seriously injured by the black monster before, and he quickly became alive.
Duan Qianxiao didn't answer him this time and asked, "You guys don't run yet." β
Wen Yuan: "Let's fight directly." "I don't know how long this monster will chase it, and it's a waste of energy to keep moving fast when the time comes.
Luo Cheng stared into the distance, and said with a little difficulty: "I don't think it's quite right this time......
Wen Yuan's body was stunned.
He closed his eyes, and the sound of the wind whistling by his ears was followed by a dense hissing sound. He probed his spiritual power forward, and noticed the surging energy fluctuations behind him.
It's not just one or two monsters, it's a bunch!
A deafening sound resounded through the sky, and the huge black image was a huge dark cloud. In the dim light, those pairs of pupils shone with a bloodthirsty light.
"Run!" Wen Yuan opened his eyes suddenly, and his voice was more serious than ever.
Duan Qianxiao, who drew his sword on the side, looked inexplicable: "Didn't you say fighting?" β
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw thousands of dark shadows appear in the light in the distance, roaring incessantlyβ
Duan Qianxiao couldn't help but curse, and immediately followed the flying figure of the robe in front of him.
β¦β¦
Several people were running in the wind and sand.
Continuing ahead was the ruined ancient city, and it was reasonable that they should have walked around, but the black shadow behind them was extremely fast, and it actually came towards them in a surrounding mannerβ
"What now?" Duan Qianxiao was so tired that he could barely speak, the roar behind him continued, countless winds and sand were rolled up, and the ground trembled slightly.
Luo Cheng frowned, it was not that there was no situation where he came out at night before, but there had never been so many "desert lovers", not to mention that there were many other monsters inside.
There was a sound of explosion behind Wen Yuan, and some wind blades containing great power struck him. There is nowhere to hide at this time, and there is no chance of victory against so many monsters.
"Let's go!" Wen Yuan drank lightly, his eyes lit up, and he quickly rushed towards the entrance of the ancient city.
Luo Cheng thought of the legend of this ancient city, and his heart was slightly uneasy. But Duan Qianxiao and Wen Yuan had already entered together, and the attacks behind him were overwhelming, so he had no choice but to go in together.
After the three of them entered, a transparent barrier suddenly rose outside the ancient city, blocking those monsters from entering.
In the group of monsters, the silhouettes of several figures suddenly appeared, all of them wearing hoods, and their faces could not be seen clearly. And the one at the head, looking at his figure, is the black-clothed masked man who appeared before.
He affectionately stroked a scaly monster beside him, his fingertips touching its strange flickering fangs, and said to himself, "I should thank them for sending me something, it's so useful." β
The people around him did not speak, but stood still like the walking dead, their black robes churning in the wind like ghosts.
The masked man at the head stood up straight, looked at the entrance of the ancient city, and ordered the people behind him: "Kill her, destroy this place, and leave him alone." β
The man in black behind him knelt down and said in a non-wavering tone: "Yes." β
With that, they turned into black mist and disappeared in place, like lifeless puppets who could only carry out tasks.
The masked man looked up and looked up at the sky.
More and more black clouds gathered around them, gradually blending into the night.
He said lightly: "Some people always can't make up their minds, and they have to let people help him." β
"I hope you don't let me down this time."
A mocking smile curled up at the corner of his mouth, which also turned into a puff of smoke and disappeared in place. As if ordered to do so, the monsters gradually dispersed and retreated.
As night fell, the empty sandy area was so quiet that it was as if no one had ever appeared.
β¦β¦
After Wen Yuan entered the ancient city, he felt a cold aura coming over him.
The air outside is hot, and I don't know what the reason is in this ancient city, the temperature has dropped a lot.
There is no light around, and the lighting orbs in the storage ring cannot be used. He simply took out the Cloud Blood Sword and injected the aura into it to illuminate the environment around him.
The hazy light faded silently, and Wen Yuan's eyes froze slightly.
- There is no one around.
Duan Qianxiao and Luo Cheng, who had just entered with him, disappeared for some reason.
There are some words carved into the surrounding walls, which are slightly falling off because of their age. He thinks he is quite knowledgeable, and he reads a lot of miscellaneous books on weekdays, but he can't understand what is written on them. It seemed to be a script from ancient times, extremely complicated.
There was something faintly wrong in his heart, it was all too coincidental. The timing of the monster's appearance just now was also abrupt, as if it had deliberately lured them to this place.
- The fear of the unknown has always been more terrifying.
Wen Yuan clenched the Cloud Blood Sword with an expressionless face and walked towards the darkness in front of him.
