Seeing that this woman pretended to be dead, Xu Fei didn't say anything, although he and the others saved her, but she had just experienced danger, and it was reasonable for her to become cautious.

Xu Fei and Erin glanced at each other, although they were curious about what she had experienced, but it was better to leave for now.

Xu Fei could feel it. There is a malice in this woman, not that she produces malice, but that she is tainted with malice and seems to have been marked by something.

Generally, it is not easy to use spiritual power to mark the lives of others.

Erin also seemed to have sensed something, let go of her hand, and said to Xu Fei, "Let's go!" ”

Xu Fei nodded, led Da Hei, and the three of them walked into the distance.

Walking through the snow forest, Xu Fei frowned, because he found that Erin was also wrapped with malicious intent, which seemed to have been marked. But looking at Erin's indifferent look, it seems that she hasn't felt it yet.

At this time, Da Hei suddenly whispered and communicated with Xu Fei's spirit.

"I just felt an ancient breath."

"Ancient breath? What's going on? ”

"It's not clear yet, but we're in trouble."

Xu Fei's spiritual sense unfolded, covering Erin's body, and he found a trace of spiritual mark, but this spiritual mark made Xu Fei a little surprised. Because the mark is a complex secret pattern.

Carefully observing this secret pattern, Xu Fei constructed this secret pattern in his mind. As long as you can construct this secret pattern, if you analyze it, you can break this secret pattern.

But suddenly Xu Fei was stunned, because he found that this mark was slowly growing at this time, why it was growing, it was because this mark began to absorb the yuan power in Erin's body.

Although the speed of absorption is still very slow, Xu Fei knows that as long as this secret pattern gradually grows, then the speed of its absorption will increase at a geometric speed.

Xu Fei took a deep breath, turned his head to look at Erin, and asked, "Erin, do you believe me?" ”

Erin was stunned by Xu Fei's question, and she didn't understand what Xu Fei was crazy about, but she still nodded: "Of course I believe you." ”

Xu Fei showed a smile and said, "Since you believe me." Then I hope you will be able to follow what I have to say next. ”

Seeing Xu Fei's serious face, Erin couldn't help but become serious: "What should I do." ”

Xu Fei said: "Burn all the Yuan Force and consume the Yuan Force to the greatest extent." ”

Consumed dry? Erin is not stupid, after Xu Fei said this, she reacted instantly, thinking of what happened to the girl before, she immediately did what Xu Fei said.

After all, he is a powerhouse in the Three Seas Realm, and it is really not easy for this Yuan Force to drain up, and it took nearly a quarter of an hour for Erin to consume almost all the Yuan Power.

"Now you can tell what happened, right?"

Xu Fei organized his words and said, "You have been marked, but I think you also feel that your power has been sucked away by other strange powers, right?" ”

Erin didn't feel it at all at first, but as the Yuan Force burned and time passed, she finally felt something wrong with her body.

"Well, why?"

Xu Fei explained: "This mark is like a spiritual imprint, which can absorb the energy that is marked, so ordinary people can't detect it before it causes harm, and when it is perceived, the energy in the body has been absorbed a lot, and it is completely impossible to get rid of it." ”

Erin is different from ordinary people, she can feel inappropriate as soon as possible because her grasp of the body is much stronger than that of martial artists in the same realm.

"Is there a way to get rid of this mark?"

Xu Fei's spiritual sense infiltrated Erin's body, and found that although this secret mark had grown a little, because the energy in Erin's body was almost gone, it couldn't absorb too much energy at all, so the speed of "growth" also slowed down.

Of course, this can only slow down the speed of its growth, but cannot solve it at the source, and as it grows, it will most likely gradually suck Erin dry.

"There's a way to get rid of the mark, it's just going to take a while." Xu Feidao.

When Erin heard that it could be removed, she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart and smiled: "Time is not a problem, as long as you can successfully get rid of it." ”

Xu Fei is not as optimistic as Erin, because the complexity of this secret pattern requires him to analyze it with all his might, and it may be difficult to analyze it without two or three days, and if it cannot be resolved in two or three days, Erin is afraid that she is already exactly the same as the foreign woman before. But Xu Fei didn't want Erin to be worried, so he didn't say this.

Xu Fei said: "There are only two ways to solve this mark now. The first is to remove the mark, and the second is to find the source. Personally, I tend to find the source, because this time we easily removed the mark, so what about people who encounter this situation in the future? ”

Erin thought for a moment and said, "I'm also inclined to look for the source, I want to see who this guy really is. But do you know where the source is? ”

Xu Fei showed a hint of a smile, pointed at Da Hei, and smiled at Erin: "It's a very simple thing, Da Hei's sense of smell is extremely sensitive, it has just sniffed the smell of that woman, if you follow it, you may be able to find the source." ”

"By the way, what about the woman?" Erin said, "Go back and see if the woman is still there!" ”

"It's gone. After we left, she left as fast as she could. Xu Fei said.

After they had walked some distance into the snowy forest, the woman opened her eyes and left. It's just that Xu Fei showed a smile, although this woman left, the direction is very interesting, it doesn't seem to be the direction of human society, it is very likely that she also went to the source.

Xu Fei first used his spiritual sense to make a spiritual barrier around that secret pattern, trying to make it stop absorbing energy, and it turned out that Xu Fei's spiritual barrier had some effect, but the effect was not significant, but the original absorption capacity was reduced to about eight tenths.

"Big black, lead the way."

Da Hei barked, and the two of them and a dog returned the way they came.

It was very sensitive to the ancient atmosphere, and Xu Fei and the others came to a relatively quiet snow valley under its leadership.

"It's close!" Da Hei and Xu Fei exchanged spirits.

Xu Fei also noticed that this place was really a bit quiet, even if there were still some animals in the snow forest, but here, Xu Fei's spiritual sense was unfolded but he didn't find any animals.

Xu Fei, who had unfolded his spiritual sense, found a line of footprints, which seemed to have been left not long ago, and were about the woman they saved.

Following the woman's footprints, Xu Fei discovered that there was a cave leading to the ground in the depths of this snow valley. The spiritual sense seeped into it, but when he had just penetrated into it a short distance, he felt a strong resistance.

This situation made Xu Fei a little surprised, since he had practiced his spiritual sense for half a month, his spiritual sense was an invincible existence, and nothing could stop his spiritual sense, even if it was a "star core", but this underground cave was blocking his spiritual sense, which made him more curious about what was below.

So Xu Fei changed his spiritual sense and began to slowly probe into the depths of the cave, but he was still blocked.

"I found the woman's footprints." Xu Fei said: "Come with me and see where she went." ”

Erin and Daihei followed, and the group came to the entrance of the underground cave.

The entrance is not large, oval-shaped, only about two feet in diameter, just enough to accommodate a person to go down, and the bottom is dark and seems to be very deep.

Xu Fei jumped down first and landed at the bottom of the cave.

This cave doesn't look very wide, in fact, it's just that the hole is not wide, and the bottom of the cave is quite open, although it is very dark, but Xu Fei's eyesight is excellent, and it is as bright as day for him. From the entrance of the cave to the bottom of the cave, it is only about 30 zhang.

It's spring, and there's snow outside, and the bottom of the cave is very wet, and some of the stones are covered with water vapor, and the droplets of water are slowly falling downward, making a ticking sound.

Erin and Big Black followed, not too surprised by what they saw.

"Did you find anything?" Erin asked.

Xu Fei pointed ahead, there was a hole on the wall at the bottom of the cave that could accommodate one person to enter, and from this side, it was dark and swarthy, and it was about to go down diagonally.

Xu Fei's spiritual sense just now couldn't get in here, so he didn't know what was inside.

"Go in and have a look." This time Erin got in first.

Xu Fei followed, and after entering, Xu Fei only felt that his body was inexplicably heavy, as if he had been put on an invisible gravity suit. It's just that this gravity is not directed at the body, but against the spirit, the consciousness and the spiritual sense.

Unfolding his spiritual sense, Xu Fei found that at this time, his spiritual sense could only expand a range of three meters at most, and his sensing ability was greatly limited. So Xu Fei reminded loudly: "Erin, Da Hei, you'd better not leave my side more than three meters away. ”

As he went deeper, there were more and more stalactites around, the passage became wider and wider, and he became more and more humid, and he could feel a lot of water droplets dripping on his body with every step he took.

I walked for an hour.

Da Hei's brow furrowed deeper and deeper, as if he remembered some bad memories.

Suddenly open in front of it, there is a space with a diameter of about 300 meters, about 200 meters high, Xu Fei looked at this space, it seems that it has been eroded by the years, and the walls here have become colorful, like exquisite patterns.

Although the wall attracted Xu Fei's attention, Xu Fei's more attention was placed on a towering bronze door, which had complex patterns and looked a little mottled, but it gave people a thick and long-lasting atmosphere, it stood so quietly that without the slightest words, it became the most eye-catching in the whole space, so that it almost made people ignore another eye-catching existence.

A large tree with lush foliage and fruit. This tree is about 150 meters high, a few people are afraid to be able to hug it, the leaves are finely broken, one by one the branches are hanging down, like a banyan tree, and there are thousands of fiery red fruits hanging under the leaves, which looks very attractive.

Its body was wrapped around six green vines the thickness of Irene's waist, and these vines seemed to be too long, you circled, I circled, and the trunk of the big tree was tightly wound, and each vine had dozens of branches.

The bronze gate stood low above the tree.

The canopy of the large tree had a white, soft glow, which seemed to be a large luminous object through the cracks in the fine leaves.

Then Xu Fei, Erin, and Da Hei found that about a hundred meters away from the big tree, there were seven figures walking towards the center of the big tree. It's just that their movements are heading there, but Xu Fei estimates that they will never be able to reach it, because they have completely lost their breath of life.

Dahei was first surprised when he saw the bronze gate, but when he saw the big tree again, he became a little frightened.

Da Hei was near Xu Fei, and its spirit fluctuated violently, but it couldn't escape Xu Fei's magic eyes, so the spiritual sense said, "What did you find?" ”

Da Hei gasped a few times and said, "Great opportunity." At the same time, it is also a great crisis. I know what Erin's trick is! ”

Xu Fei was about to continue asking, when there was a terrible laugh from the side.

Erin and Xu Fei turned their heads to look, only to find that it was the woman they had saved.

"You shouldn't have come!"

With the help of the virtual machine's translation, Xu Fei understood what she meant, so he frowned and asked, "Why shouldn't you come?" What exactly is this place? ”

"This is an ancient ruin, a cursed place. Originally, you saved me, and I didn't want you to get into danger so I pretended not to wake up, but I didn't expect you to chase after me. It's too late now, and anyone who sets foot in the Cursed Lands will die. No one is immune. ”

"The curse will invade your body, drain you little by little, and eventually turn you into corpses." Speaking of this, the woman's emotions collapsed a little, and her face was a little pale, it seemed that the secret pattern was demonic again in her body, and she had absorbed most of the power to grow.

The reason why Erin was infected was probably because she injected Yuan Force into this woman's body, and as a result, the secret pattern split and invaded Erin's body in reverse.

"What's the curse?" Xu Fei asked Da Hei.

Da Hei looked at the big tree and said slowly: "This big tree is not an ordinary plant, but a plant life, the name is the Fire Cloud Fruit Tree, which was cultivated by the Ancient Starry Sky Fire Refining Dao. ”

"Ancient Starry Sky Fire Refining Dao?"

"I added it to the ancient times, in fact, the full name of this force is called Starry Sky Refining Fire Dao. It is a super force on the Ancient Realm Star, it is a secret pattern school, and it is a force that is good at making tools, and this Fire Cloud Fruit Tree is cultivated by them and used to purify energy. When you look at the fruit hanging on the tree, it is actually a purer energy crystal than a purple-grade Xuanjing stone. ”
