Chapter 48: The Demon Forest (1)

A group of five people walked along the path, Xu Chen knew that there would definitely be a lot of dangerous things in the territory of the Demon Mantis, but he was also fearless, as long as the road went to the end, he could always find some useful clues, but he soon found that he had misjudged again.

After walking on this path for less than an hour, they were dismayed to find that there was no way out, and in front of them was a terrible primeval forest.

The forest was full of tall trees whose names could not be named, and they towered into the blue sky overhead, their thick and strange branches coiled around the trunk like snakes, and when the cold wind blew, the branches and leaves made a rustling sound that made people sound like a ghost crying.

This made Xu Chen feel that he had come to a different world from reality, the dense canopy of trees completely covered the light shining in the sky, they seemed to be walking in the twilight, surrounded by a faint mist, it emitted a strange faint blue light, all of which made people feel an extremely depressed feeling.

Xu Chen couldn't help but show a look of surprise, he was worried that everyone would be trapped in this forest and never be able to get out.

"There's something strange about this forest. From Wang Shen's heavy voice, Xu Chen could hear that he had the same worries as himself, so he asked, "Isn't it called Evil Dragon Valley, how did it become a forest?"

Wang Shen said coldly: "It's said to be a labyrinth, how can you get out easily, of course the magic cockroach will do some harmful tricks." ”

"Don't panic, everyone, no matter how powerful the maze created by the magic mantis, as long as we don't get separated on the way, it will be fine. After all, he was born in the army, and after countless battles of life and death, Su Lingxuan's courage was much greater than that of others, and he calmly reminded everyone of the matters that should be paid attention to.

Suddenly, a soldier from the Detention Nation who was walking in the front pointed to a certain place and said happily: "Look, everyone!"

Everyone looked at the place where he was pointing, and two yellow lights appeared in the dark forest, like bright lights to guide everyone in the direction of the way.

"It's so bright, it won't be the pearl of the night, and we'll get rich if we find it. The warrior who had spotted the yellow light swallowed his saliva and walked towards the place.

"Stop, be careful of deception!" Su Lingxuan immediately stopped his actions, and said angrily: "There will be a night pearl in the sea, how can it appear here?"

The warrior replied reluctantly: "General, even if it is not the Night Pearl, it may be other orbs." ”

"Really, then you go over and have a look, and the others follow and be vigilant. Seeing that his subordinates didn't believe what he said, Su Lingxuan decided to teach him a lesson, so he gave this order.

When this person heard the order, he hurriedly walked towards the place where the yellow light flickered, and after a while, he distanced himself from Xu Chen and the others and disappeared from their sight.

"Ahh

When Xu Chen was in doubt, he heard the soldier's terrible screams in front of him!

A flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he immediately realized that this warrior was in danger, and after glancing at Wang Shen beside him, he quickly flew in the direction where the voice came from, ready to help this unlucky warrior.

When he came to the place of the incident, he couldn't help but gasp, what kind of night pearl is this, but a giant python more than ten zhang long, and the so-called glowing thing he saw before was actually two giant eyes on the head of a snake.

This giant python's whole body was covered with dark green scale armor, as soon as he saw Xu Chen and the others coming, the pair of snake eyes suddenly turned from orange to blood-red, it let go of the snake body that was entangled in the warriors of the Detention Country, and stood up with a whoosh, with the continuous expansion and contraction of the tongue, a large amount of black gas erupted from its mouth, spreading around.

This unfortunate warrior of the Detention Kingdom is lying crookedly in the grass under the giant python at this moment, the person has lost his breath, his whole face is a color darker than ink, and the seven orifices are also overflowing with black blood, which can be said to be a very tragic death!

"It's not good, the mist spewed out by this python is poisonous!" Su Lingxuan was the first to notice the abnormality, and immediately covered his mouth and nose and held his breath, feeling very remorseful in his heart, he knew that this giant python would spray poisonous gas, and he would never let this warrior be wronged to send him to death.

Everyone suddenly came to their senses, and they all followed his example and retreated, preparing to avoid the infestation of poisonous gas before making plans.

"You guys stay away for the time being, and I'll deal with this little snake first!" Xu Chen sneered, and walked towards the ferocious giant python, his right hand was closed one by one, and the cold ice sword was quietly pinched in his hand.

"Shhh

Xu Chen is invincible to all poisons, he will be afraid of these poisonous gases, he strode forward, and the sword is aimed at the giant python!

This giant python has been cultivating for a very short time, and it can't cultivate into a human form, but it also has some ability, seeing that Xu Chen wanted to cut off his head with a sword, he quickly shrank his snake body and ran back, dodging this fatal blow.

Su Lingxuan couldn't help but be secretly surprised when he saw that Xu Chen's actions were surrounded by poisonous gas but were not affected at all, and thought to himself: "This young man is less than twenty years old, and his cultivation is not as good as his own, why is he naturally not afraid of snake venom, does he have a talent that ordinary people can't match?"

Just as he was thinking wildly, he heard Wang Shen say again: "Don't fight blindly, just stab it with a sword and solve this beast." ”

Su Lingxuan looked back and saw that Wang Shen had a leisurely expression, completely ignoring the vicious fight between Xu Chen and the giant python, and couldn't help but be shocked again, and secretly thought: "This old man is also an unusual person, obviously he has no cultivation at all, but he can open his mouth to say the weak links of the giant python, how did he see it?"

After Xu Chen heard Wang Shen's instructions, he immediately changed his battle strategy, and changed his hand to stab a sword at its seven inches.

Behind this giant python was a large black stone several feet high, and it was difficult to retreat in a hurry, so it opened its mouth and spewed out a thick black gas towards the space around Xu Chen, in a vain attempt to poison Xu Chen on the spot.

Everyone was surprised to see that the trees and weeds around them, as soon as they were slightly contaminated by the black gas, immediately withered.

Xu Chen looked normal, the long sword in his hand pierced into the snake body in the blink of an eye, as the water blue light bloomed, the surrounding air flow surged wildly, and the water aura blew like a wind, and the poisonous gas spewed out by the giant python was instantly dispersed, and then with the force of his hand, a large amount of water aura was continuously transported into the snake body through the sword body.

"Boom!" The giant python exploded on the spot under the roar of the water aura, the flesh and blood splashed, and the upright body fell to the ground with a bang.

Su Lingxuan's face was moved, he didn't expect Xu Chen to kill this giant python with a single move, he suddenly had a great impression of these two people, most of the people brought by the Heart Dao from the Central Plains were indeed strange people, it seemed that if he wanted to get out of this terrifying forest full of dangers, he had to rely on them.

After killing this demon beast, Xu Chen turned around and came back, only to find that Wang Shen had a laughing face, and he didn't know what he was muttering, so he pricked up his ears and listened, but found that he was saying: "Hmph, it's really a money obsession, and he deserves to die." ”

Xu Chen suddenly realized, and said in his heart: "How can I forget this stubble, with Wang Shen's experience as a snitch, there is any treasure he hasn't seen, he must have expected that it is not a night pearl shining!"

Thinking of this, Xu Chen couldn't help but sulk, walked to Wang Shen's side and whispered, "Tell me honestly, did you know that this python demon was using snake eyes to confuse us?"

"Of course, I can't even see this little trick, it's not for nothing that I have lived for most of my life. Wang Shenman replied nonchalantly.

"Uncle Wang, how can you do this! When you find danger, you should warn everyone in advance, and the result of your doing this is to kill that soldier!"

"I don't know him well, why should I help him! Besides, whoever makes him greedy deserves to die. ”

Xu Chen said with a stern expression: "When is it, you still have selfish intentions! If everyone is like you, how can we defeat the Demon Cockroach!"

Hearing Xu Chen's righteous words, Wang Shen also knew that he had gone too far, so he had to pretend to drink to hide the uneasiness on his face.

After teaching Wang Shen a lesson, Xu Chen turned his head and saw the burly warrior covering his nose, and at this moment he was putting his hand into the broken snake's belly, and saw that he looked focused, as if he was looking for some treasure.

Xu Chen suddenly knew his idea of the monster Neidan, and he was secretly amused in his heart, so he opened his words: "Don't look for it, only the monster that has cultivated for more than a thousand years can have Neidan in the belly, how can this little snake have it!"

The warrior seemed to believe it or not, Su Lingxuan saw that he was in a hurry to get rich regardless of his companion's corpse, and couldn't help but say angrily: "What kind of system, why don't you bury my dead brother quickly!"

The young warrior blushed, gave up the search in a huff, and together with everyone found a nearby place to bury the wrongfully dead companion, and then hurried on.

The next staggering all the way, they encountered several demon beasts one after another, fortunately, their cultivation was not high, Xu Chen and Su Lingxuan didn't have to make much effort to kill them cleanly, which made their originally tense heartstrings relax a little.

But just when the situation was good, Wang Shen frowned, as if he sensed some kind of danger.

This detail was discovered by Xu Chen, so he asked Wang Shen in a low voice: "Uncle Wang, what's wrong with you?"

"Don't you think it's strange that all the minions you met along the way are some small minions, and you don't even have a powerful character?"

Xu Chen said with a big grin: "Who let these demon beasts not concentrate on cultivation, so the cultivation is not high, and it will die in our hands." ”

"Why don't you think about it without thinking about it, there is no interference in this world, if you are a monster and cultivating here, is the efficiency several times faster, or even dozens of times faster than the outside world?"

Xu Chen was stunned, he sensed the crisis from Wang Shen's words.

Just imagine, I'm afraid that except for a few of them now, no one has come in to harass this place for many years before, and even if the demon beasts who live here are stupid, their cultivation efficiency in this unique environment will be many times higher than that of ordinary people, how come all the small characters they encountered along the way are useless?

In his astonishment, he heard Wang Shen whisper: "If I'm not mistaken, those who died are just small minions who have come to test our strength, and the really tricky big monsters are probably hiding nearby, secretly observing our every move." ”

"Is there a monster as difficult as a magic mantis, and what is the purpose of it?"

"Of course, they want to find out our weaknesses and then defeat us completely. ”

Xu Chen was suddenly shocked, he had to admit that what Wang Shen said was extremely reasonable, and it was likely to become a reality later.
