Qin Hao withdrew the hand that had touched the mural.

There shouldn't be any more useful clues here, and in order to fully understand the story of the Occult City, you need to go to the Occultation Sect again.

When she was in no man's land, she had seen the "treasure" that could imitate her moves and voice in the abandoned Sun Covering Sect, but she didn't know if this treasure was used to lure her to lay a trap at that time, or if it was really the treasure of the young sect master of the Sun Covering Sect.

Speaking of the young sect master Qingxing.

She had only seen her demonized, not her human form. And everything about her was only known from Cui Yu's mouth, and he was not sure that what he said was the truth.

At first, Qin Zhen was just trying to figure out why the poison that suppressed his cultivation speed suddenly took effect after returning from the no-man's land, but after building the foundation, it struck again.

And when she went to the Occult City again, her body was not as good as the first time, and her cultivation speed was able to return to normal.

After knowing that the secret realm set up by Shen Qifeng this time was related to the Occult Sun City, he wanted to find out what position Shen Qifeng occupied in the affairs of the year and what role he played.

But after investigating so far, not only can he not see the shadow of Shen Qifeng inside, but even Cui Yu, who appeared in no man's land and can order the executioner, has no sense of existence at present, and has not heard anyone mention it.

Could it be that I am thinking wrong?

This is not a replica of the city before the catastrophe, but only the people and names of the city, but it is not the slightest resemblance to the real city of the city.

Because as the master of this secret realm, Shen Qifeng, he himself didn't know what had happened in the Occult City, he just knew that there was this place, and then according to his own imagination, he created such a false Occultation City?

Qin Zhen sighed and was about to leave here.

She sometimes doesn't know if she should think more or less.

If you think too much, you are afraid that you will be wrong, and if you think less, you are afraid that you will fall into the scheme.

Sandwiched between these two, how to grasp the complexity of her thoughts has become the most difficult thing to decide at the moment after she has experienced so many things.

She wanted to make no mistakes herself, but she couldn't.

The right hand is pinched and released.

Qin Hao will throw away many distracting thoughts, and raise his feet to leave this mountain road.

And just as she was about to turn around, the mural on the stone wall suddenly emitted a dazzling light, and when the light dissipated, the mural disappeared, and the whole stone wall made a soft "click" sound, and slowly moved to the side, revealing the hole behind the stone wall.

In the hollow was a small flag, and the flag on it was embroidered with a "Wu".

"Ah Sheng." Qin Zhen guessed that this was the flag to be fought for in this competition, so she didn't go directly to get it, but called Ye Yousheng's name.

Ye Yousheng was a step behind her, looking at the murals, when he heard Qin Zhen calling him, he hurriedly went over, and saw the flag planted on the stone slab.

"I remember you said that the first person to pull the flag will passively project his position to all the monks participating in the competition, and the projection will not disappear until it is taken away by the next person." Qin Hao looked at him seriously, "But the rules don't say that only those who compete can pull out the flag."

"So, I'm going to pull the flag first. If the projection works for me, then don't get too close to me, and we'll see if any monks will come now."

Qin Hao suspected that most of the monks who came to participate in the competition had already fallen into the trap of the Hidden Sun City, otherwise the faces of some of the participating monks who appeared behind the heads of those demon devourers when they were in the tower would not be able to explain it at all.

Zheng Yunmin only said that he would use these foreign monks as a catastrophe, but he did not say how to operate it. There is a possibility that they can also turn other people into demon eaters, and then send them together as sacrifices.

"No, you'll be in danger." Ye You's ecology was very resolute, "Now that the Occultation City has become very weird, those monks have not had any news from beginning to end, and no one has pulled out the flag before. In such a situation, the first to pull the flag is undoubtedly very dangerous

Behavior. Senior sister, you already have a hand injury, so you shouldn't make a move. And this is my own competition, I can do it myself, if this also depends on Senior Sister, then my years of cultivation are just in vain."

"......" Qin Hao didn't speak.

She looked at Ye Yousheng's eyes, but in the past, as long as she was watching, she would uncomfortably dodge her eyes, but this time she did not waver in the slightest. In those clear eyes, there was unprecedented firmness and persistence, as if he had decided to make a radical change. Z.br>

"Doesn't Ah Sheng want Senior Sister to meddle in your affairs?" Qin Hao's tone was soft, "Senior Sister always thought you were willing, but it turned out that Senior Sister herself was thinking too much?"

"No, senior sister!" Seeing that Qin Zhen had misunderstood, Ye Yousheng hurriedly said anxiously, "How could I think of Senior Sister like this! It's just that I don't want my sister to feel that I need protection forever, it's something I can do on my own, so I want to do it myself."

"I—I...... I want to always be by my sister's side, not as a protected person, but to be able to stand side by side with my sister."

His voice was a little nervously dry, but after taking a deep breath, he still mustered up the courage to say what he thought.

Qin Hao's eyes dimmed for a moment, but she quickly returned to her usual gentle appearance in front of Ye Yousheng: "Okay, then Senior Sister won't interfere, Ah Sheng will come by herself."

"Hmm! I'll do my best!" Ye Yousheng's eyes widened in surprise when he saw that Qin Zhen didn't insist anymore, but recognized his choice.

Qin Zhen pursed her lips and smiled, took a step back, gave up her position, and asked him to pull out the flag.

Ye Yousheng stepped forward, without any hesitation, and reached out to pull down the flag. And almost the moment he pulled down the flag, a heavenly light lit up from his body, and the pillar of light broke through the cave, revealing a huge "Wu" character in the air, and his action of reaching out to pull the flag was also projected and frozen, placed next to the "Wu" character.

"Will it still show the person who pulls the flag?" Qin Zhen looked at the projection in the sky and frowned slightly.

"Senior sister." Ye Yousheng clenched his grip on the flag and looked at Qin Hao, "I'll go to a wide place first and wait for the other monks to come over. If there's anything you haven't done here, don't worry! When you come back, you'll see that I've won!"

"Okay, Senior Sister believes in you."

She really couldn't stay with Ye Yousheng anymore, after all, when the competition was over, the monks they participated in would be teleported out together. And because she didn't come in through a regular channel, she had to find a way to get out of here before the end of their game.

After going to the Occult Sun Sect to see it, she had to prepare to leave.

Qin Zhen watched Ye Yousheng leave the cave with the flag, she took one last look at the murals on the wall that had not dissipated, and then left here as well.

In order to prevent encountering the monks chasing the projection on the road, Qin Zhen once again hid his figure.

But the reality was pretty much what she expected.

Along the way, I didn't see any other monks except for two friars coming this way.

And those two people, after Qin Zhen observed it, he found that they were still people he knew.

It's Zhang Lanmeng and Lu Yue.

Originally, Qin Zhen only thought of talking to them because he recognized them and fought with Ye Yousheng, and heard them mention the "Water Moon Sword Sect" and Qiu Sixian. If it goes well, then it's a good start in case you need to be prepared. If she doesn't succeed, she has nothing to lose.

But things went unexpectedly well.

Although Zhang Lanmeng is a little irritable, she is simple, and she seems to have heard some strange rumors, and her eyes are still a little sympathetic.

And Lu Yue, although she didn't, didn't say anything to her. But she looks sensitive and thoughtful, although everything is based on Zhang Lanmeng on the surface, but in her heart she has her own plans, the kind of person who may cause a fatal blow when people are not paying attention.

And from getting along with Qiu Sixian and Cao Lingyan, as well as Zhang Lanmeng's conversation, Qin Zhen also noticed a very key person - Yu Chan.

From the description of her by others, Yu Chan is undoubtedly a person full of ambition.

If you want to start from scratch and gain a foothold in Xingzhou, which is led by Shen Qifeng, it is an impossible thing to accomplish.

But she started from the Empty Shell Sect step by step, under the banner of "tolerating those monks who are unwilling to be bound by the Sect", and developed the Empty Shell Sect to the point where she could send people to participate in the battle of geniuses, and she could also enter the second round of the audition.

Although it is not ruled out that Zhang Lanmeng and Lu Yue already have considerable strength before joining her, it is very difficult to make a person who is dissatisfied with her still obey her orders.

Zhang Lanmeng is not like a person who succumbs to interests, and the shell sect managed by Yu Chan can't give a good reward. Qin Hao was very interested in the bond that connected their relationship, not to mention that Yu Chan could also let Qiu Sixian join, which made Qin Hao even more curious about Yu Chan.

After the game is over, find a chance to follow Cao Lingyan to the Water Moon Sword Sect.

Qin Zhen made a decision, and stopped looking at Zhang Lanmeng and Lu Yue, who were hurriedly chasing towards the projection.

No matter what the two of them plan, they will not be Ye Yousheng's opponents, and she really needs to learn to trust Ye Yousheng and leave things to him to do.

Qin Zhen was very fast, and after a while, he returned to the gate of the Occult Sun City.

From the outside, it is completely impossible to see that such a strange thing has just happened here, but I don't know if the residents of the Occult City are still in a state of mutation, and whether the mysterious Occultation Sect Master has taken action to stop such a situation.

"This girl also came to our Occult City to watch the grand ceremony, look at your face, is it the first time to come?"

Zhou Zhirong didn't know where he came from, so he greeted Qin Hao warmly.

Qin Hao glanced at him, but he still couldn't feel any fluctuations in spiritual power from his body, nor could he see what had happened to his body.

What does that mean? They had already met, but now it was like the first time they met.

Did someone reset what happened in the Occultation?

Qin Zhen hid her doubts in her heart and showed a shy smile at Zhou Zhirong: "Well, I heard that the grand festival in the Occultation City is very lively, so I took this opportunity to come and have a look."

"Hahaha, you've come to the right place. Our people in the city of the Occult are the most welcoming guests, and you will follow me for the next few days to ensure that your trip is worthwhile." Zhou Zhirong patted his chest and assured, with a kind smile on his face.

"In that case, thank you seniors." Qin Zhen also smiled at him.

No matter what the city was hiding, she had to find out this time.
