Chapter 533: Return to the Fourth Layer
Seeing that Feng Rin Wu was so eager, Gu Chen couldn't help but smile and said: "Look at you in a hurry, have you forgotten that only the Colorful Divine Phoenix bloodline can get the Heart of the Heavenly Phoenix? Now that the Colorful Divine Phoenix Clan has long been extinct, only your Demon Phoenix Clan has the Divine Phoenix Bloodline, and you are the person with the purest bloodline power among the Demon Phoenix Clan! So, if there is anyone else in the world who can get the 'Heavenly Phoenix Heart', it must be you!"
"That's right!" Feng Rin Wu was overjoyed when she heard this, she was also concerned about it, and after Gu Chen said this, she immediately put her mind at ease.
"Now, what we have to do is to quickly recover our strength, because there is still a fierce battle coming!" Gu Chen suddenly said with a serious face.
"What kind of fierce battle, do you still have to compete with other forces?" Feng Rinwu suddenly asked Gu Chen with a puzzled expression.
"No, what we are facing is the last layer of the underground world, that is, the fifth layer of the guardian beast, and that guardian beast has a strength comparable to that of the Holy Realm!" Gu Chen shook his head and said.
"A guardian beast comparable to the Holy Realm?" Feng Rinwu read suspiciously.
Gu Chen nodded and said, "Yes, the fifth layer of the underground world has a large number of treasures, and there is also a holy weapon among them!, therefore, we will cooperate with other forces to kill that guardian beast first, and then we can divide those treasures, and there is also a chance to get a holy weapon!"
"Is this news reliable?" Feng Rinwu said with a frown.
"This ...... It should be reliable!" Gu Chen said with some hesitation.
"What do you mean by what should you do, what if this is a scam?" Feng Rinwu glared at Gu Chen and said with a displeased expression.
Gu Chen touched his chin and said, "This news was said by Ji Ruofeng of the Bodhi Sect, he has been inherited by a senior who has lived in the Xutian Secret Realm for more than five hundred years, so no one should know the secrets of the underground world better than him!"
"Then he won't lie?" Feng Rin Wu said staring into Gu Chen's eyes.
Gu Chen waved his hand and said, "Even if Ji Ruofeng gets the inheritance of that senior, the progress of his strength is not an overnight thing, how can he dare to calculate the forces of all parties with his cultivation? Even if he doesn't think about himself, he has to think about the Bodhi Sect! After all, the Bodhi Sect can't withstand the anger of the forces of all sides." And when the time comes, the Lingxiao Sword Sect will definitely participate in it, with Xiao Moyan, a powerhouse in the Holy Realm, who would dare to play tricks?"
Feng Rin Wu nodded and said, "That's true, but even if we kill that guardian beast, we don't have any hope of getting the holy weapon, right? Although, if you and I join forces, even if we face the Donkey Kong Temple, we can fight, but if we face the Lingxiao Sword Sect, it will definitely be impossible to compete! So, why do we have to do such a thankless job? Anyway, the harvest is already good now, and when we receive the 'Heart of the Heavenly Phoenix', we can just find other treasures, there is no need to go to the fifth layer to adventure!"
Gu Chen smiled and said, "What you said makes sense, but I still want to join in the fun." After all, a trip to the secret realm of the ruins is rare in a hundred years, and if I don't explore the fifth layer of this most mysterious underground world, how can I be willing? Even if I can't get the holy weapon, it would be good to be able to share some treasures of the fifth layer at that time! Moreover, the holy weapon can only be taken away by recognizing the master, so the holy weapon is obtained by chance, not by force! Of course, the stronger the person, the easier it is to be recognized!
Feng Rinwu looked at Gu Chen with a serious face and said, "Okay, since you have already decided, then, even if it is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, I will accompany you!"
Gu Chen said to Feng Rinwu with a grateful face: "Thank you, Feng'er! Don't worry, I know in my heart, if I can't do anything, I will definitely lead everyone to get out in time!"
Feng Rin Wu smiled and said, "You and I have long been inseparable, so why do you need to say thank you? You can be measured in this matter, I don't want to stop you, I just give you a wake-up call!"
......
Afterwards, Gu Chen and Feng Rin Wu talked to each other about their respective experiences during this time.
Two hours later, through taking pills and pranayama, everyone had recovered from both their injuries and their Yuan Force, and their state was back to their best.
Feng Rin Wu also recovered the consumed demonic power by swallowing the elixir.
Long Ranxi slept comfortably.
Seeing that everyone's state had recovered, Gu Chen called everyone over, clapped his hands, and said to everyone: "Next, we are going to explore the biggest secret of the underground world!"
Then, Gu Chen told the whereabouts of the various forces and the situation of the fifth layer of the underground world that Ji Ruofeng said.
The crowd was amazed.
Gu Chen continued: "Now, it has been twelve days since we entered the Xutian Secret Realm! Although Ji Ruofeng said that he knew a shortcut and could return to the Teleportation Ancient Array within five days, it would be better for us to leave a little more time! Then count it as seven days! In this way, we still have eleven days to spare! This seat wants to explore the fourth layer of the underground world, and then join forces with various forces to enter the fifth layer of the underground world! I don't know what your opinion is?"
"The subordinates have no opinion!" all the Pantheists shook their heads.
"What does Pavilion Master Li think?" Gu Chen asked Li Chengfeng again.
Li Chengfeng and the four elders of the Ten Thousand Sword Pavilion glanced at each other, and when they saw that everyone was nodding, they arched their hands at Gu Chen and said, "Everything is up to Sect Master Gu's orders!"
Gu Chen smiled and said, "Okay! In that case, let's go to the fourth layer of the underground world together! When the time comes, we will kill the guardian beast of the fifth layer, maybe the Ten Thousand Sword Pavilion will have a deep fortune and can be recognized by the holy weapon!"
When everyone in the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion heard this, their hearts suddenly became hot, if the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion could really get a holy weapon, it would be much easier to rise!
"Next, let's help Feng'er find the 'Heart of the Heavenly Phoenix' on the fourth layer before!" After Gu Chen finished speaking, he waved his hand and led everyone towards the passage of the third layer.
After a while, Gu Chen led everyone to turn left and right to bring the third layer entrance, the entrance of the cave was still cold, but it was not as cold as before, presumably because the Glass Dragon Horn had fallen into Gu Chen's Qiankun Ring!
Long Ranxi suddenly said in surprise: "It turns out that the entrance to the third floor is here! We were trying to go this way, but in the end, we were forced to go through another passage by those hateful lizardheads!"
"Where does the spiral passage up here lead?" said Hei Wu curiously as he looked at a spiral passage on the stone wall.
"There's no way to know about this seat!" Gu Chen shook his head and said.
"What's the use of this ladder? Isn't it just right to fly up? Just to get a glimpse of the reality!" Gu Shisan suddenly interjected.
Gu Chen shook his head and said: "This seat has tried, the sky here cannot exceed ten meters! Once it reaches ten meters, it will be blocked by a mysterious force, so it can't go straight to the sky!"
"Don't exceed ten meters, such an evil sect, we have no problem flying hundreds of meters outside, right?" Gu Shisan said with a surprised expression.
"It's at least seven or eight hundred meters high here, if you can't fly, when will you go up this winding staircase?" Li Xuan said with a frown.
"So, let's not waste time here!If I have time when I come back, I'll come back and explore the secrets here!" Gu Chen said with a wave of his hand.
After speaking, Gu Chen took the lead in jumping down the hole below.
Everyone immediately stopped hesitating and jumped down with Gu Chen.
After a while, everyone came to a snowy field.
"It's so cold!" Long Ranxi couldn't help but shiver, but as a dragon clan, she still wouldn't be stumped by this bit of cold.
Gu Chen had already been able to adapt to the temperature here, so he was not affected much.
But Hei Wu, Shen Yan, Gu Shisan, Li Chengfeng, Li Xuan, Qi Fearless, Elder Xi, and Elder Yun were all shivering with cold, only Tang Qingwu and Feng Rin Wu were not affected, but if they looked closely, one of them was emitting a faint golden light, and the other was emitting a faint red light, obviously offsetting the chill with the power of flames.
"Evil Gate, how can it be so cold here?, and I still feel a little familiar with this cold air!" Hei Wu couldn't help muttering to himself.
"It seems to be the power of the glass dragon!" Shen Yan said suddenly.
"Old Shen has good eyesight, it is indeed the power of the glass dragon!" Gu Chen said with a smile.
Hei Wu looked at Gu Chen and said, "Could it be that there are remnants of the bones of the glass dragon here? The gods and demons of that level should be treasures all over their bodies, right?" The sect leader said that the treasures here were all taken away by Ji Ruofeng's kid, isn't this too cheap for him?"
Gu Chen waved his hand and said with a smile: "Ji Ruofeng is quite kind, and he gave the Glass Dragon Horn to this seat!"
"That's okay! count him as acquaintances!" Hei Wu couldn't help but nodded.
Walking and walking, everyone came to a broken ice wall, the huge scratch of the word "ten" on the ice wall still existed in the middle of the hole, but the hole entrance was already covered with a golden prohibition.
Tang Qingwu looked at the prohibition and said, "This is the prohibition of the Bodhi Sect! Could it be that this is the Ice Palace that the Sect Master said? Is the person in the Ice Palace really surviving in the Xutian Secret Realm for five hundred years?"
Gu Chen nodded and said: "This is the Ice Palace, that person did die not long before he came to this seat, counting the time, five hundred years is still only a little!"
Li Xuan couldn't help but say with emotion: "Being trapped in the Xutian Secret Realm can break through the Holy Realm, what kind of genius is that person? If he hadn't come to the Xutian Secret Realm in the first place, I'm afraid that the Bodhi Sect would have been in full swing under his leadership, right? In that case, the leader of the Buddhist Sect probably wouldn't have anything to do with the Donkey Kong Temple!"
Everyone thought deeply about this, and couldn't help nodding again and again, if Yan Xiu hadn't come to the Xutian Secret Realm at that time, his cultivation at this time was probably far above the Buddha, and it would be impossible for the Bodhi Sect to be strong if it wasn't strong!
"That's not right, since he has lived in the Xutian Secret Realm for more than five hundred years, then the Xutian Secret Realm has been opened at least once during this period, why hasn't he gone out?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, even Gu Chen was deeply surprised, Feng Rin Wu was right, why didn't Yan Xiu return to the Tianyuan Continent when the last time the Xutian Secret Realm was opened?
Long Ranxi said disapprerovingly: "No matter what, he is already dead, what's the use of saying this? Since there are no good things on the third layer, let's hurry to the fourth layer!"
Seeing Long Ran Xi's heartless appearance, Gu Chen couldn't help but smile, nodded and said, "What Ran Xi said is that even if Yan Xiu has many secrets, now that he is already an ancient, we have been studying what a dead man does?"
The path of the third layer is also very complicated, but fortunately, Gu Chen has already gone back and forth, so this time he is familiar with it, leading everyone through the forks in the road, and finally came to the entrance of the fourth layer of the underground world.
At the entrance of the cave, Gu Chen suddenly stopped, and said to everyone with a solemn face: "Everyone be careful, this is a 'Peerless Yin Land' below! Among them, resentful spirits are rampant, and these resentful spirits are all a combination of the resentment of powerful creatures after death and the yin qi of the Absolute Yin Land, and it is extremely difficult to kill them by ordinary means! Everyone must be careful not to let resentful spirits enter their bodies!"
