Chapter 198: Speculation

Zhang Liang's brows gradually furrowed, and his heart was full of doubts, and he said: "But this is too strange! This is not at all in line with common sense! If it is an ordinary person, after getting a treasure map, the first reaction is to hide it well, so that others will not find out! After all, everyone wants to get the treasure alone, but that person actually did the opposite and distributed all those treasure maps, which is too strange!"

Ling Zhan snorted coldly, his face was so cold that he could almost freeze people! Ling Zhan said: "It's not strange! What if that person wasn't a disciple of my Ten Thousand Beast Heavenly Sect at all? What if he was a disciple of the Soul Devouring Sect? If he had such an identity, it wouldn't be strange at all if he wanted to do this!"

Hearing Ling Zhan's words, Zhang Liang's face suddenly changed, and he immediately thought of Chen Sheng and his group that he had met, although he didn't know what happened after he fell into a coma, but Ling Zhan had already told him about the process, and the people around Chen Sheng were the disciples of the Soul Devouring Sect!

Zhang Liang said: "If the other party is a disciple of the Soul Devouring Sect, then it would be easy for them to explain what they did! But why did they do this? Aren't they afraid of causing a sect war between the Ten Thousand Beast Heavenly Sect and the Soul Devouring Sect?"

The so-called sect war is the ultimate war between two sects of similar scale when the contradictions cannot be reconciled in the end! Once a sect war occurs, the final result is that one sect will survive in the end, so generally speaking, the sect war is very cruel!

After all, the strength of the super sect is too strong, and once the final war is triggered, the consequences will be unpredictable! Even if one of the parties wins by luck, then the victorious side will lose too much strength in the war and break away from the ranks of the super sect, and will continue to be mediocre from this end!

It was precisely because he knew this truth that Ling Zhan knew very well that even if the disciples of the Soul Devouring Sect killed all the outer disciples in the entire secret realm, the sect would not start the sect war lightly!

It is estimated that it is because of this that the disciples of the Soul Devouring Sect are so arrogant! They actually dared to enter the secret realm and wantonly kill the disciples of the Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect, this kind of method is indeed a little too vicious!

At this time, Ling Zhan couldn't help but complain a little about the top level of the sect in his heart, what did they think, how could they let the disciples of the Soul Devouring Sect sneak into the secret realm?

However, these were not Ling Zhan's concerns, what he was most concerned about now was who was the identity of the person who gave out the treasure map! The damage this person had done to the sect was simply immeasurable! If his true identity was not found out, he would probably cause even more disasters in the future!

Ling Zhan knew very well in his heart that if he wanted to get that treasure map, he had to look through the book that recorded the secret realm! And the person who could freely read that book was at least an elder in the sect!

At the thought that there was actually a spy from the Soul Devouring Sect among the upper echelons of the Ten Thousand Beast Heavenly Sect, Ling Zhan felt a shudder in his heart!

But now is not the time to think about these things, there are still a lot of troublesome things to solve!

Especially those Soul Devouring Sect disciples who had blended into the secret realm, God knows what kind of plans they had! Those Soul Devouring Sect disciples were now in the dark, while their own side was in the light, it was obvious that their own side was at an absolute disadvantage!

If you don't pick out those Soul Devouring Sect disciples one by one, I'm afraid there will be more sect disciples who will die in this secret realm in a daze!

It seems that the disciples of the Soul Devouring Sect are trying to use a desperate plan! Sure enough, if all the backbone of the outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect die here, then for a long time in the future, the sect will fall into a situation of lack of success! However, it should be said that there is already such a trend, otherwise the sect would not have sent its own to protect a few outer disciples!

In fact, Ling Zhan still hoped that his guess was false, and he hoped that the treasure map was just a prank by a certain sect senior! Unfortunately, things often backfired. Along the way, Ling Zhan found more corpses of sect disciples!

Among them, Ling Zhan even found more bones lying horizontally in the middle of the road, and when Ling Zhan saw these bones, his brows couldn't help but jump!

Ling Zhan discovered that these bones were not the bones of a demon beast at all, but the bones of a human being!

Obviously, Zhang Liang also found out about this! He exclaimed, "Childe, these are actually human bones!"

Ling Zhan said calmly: "I know!"

Zhang Liang trembled and said, "Childe, are these corpses all disciples of our sect?"

Ling Zhan sneered and said, "The vast majority of the people who can enter this secret realm are disciples of the Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect, you see that these people have not yet rotted their clothes, it is obvious that they were the outer disciples of our Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect before they died!"

By the time he said this, Ling Zhan's brain had already begun to work frantically.

If I guessed correctly, those disciples of the Soul Devouring Sect had set up a big game, and the ultimate goal of this bureau was to consume the number of elite outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Beast Heavenly Sect step by step! After all, the potential of these outer disciples was good, and some even had the hope of becoming inner disciples or even core disciples, so as long as these people were killed, then after the older generation of masters of the Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect withered one by one in the future, the Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect would definitely slowly decline!

Thinking of this, Ling Zhan couldn't help but fight a cold war!

The people of the Soul Devouring Sect are so ruthless! And seeing that many corpses on the ground have already turned into white bones, it is obvious that this qiē has been going through for a long time, does that mean that this plan has already begun to be implemented a long time ago?

And the reason why the sect didn't know about this matter may be that all the disciples who came to this place have almost been wiped out! almost all of them have died in this place, and the very few lucky people who can escape here probably don't know what happened!

If it weren't for Ling Zhan's chance to meet that Soul Devouring Sect disciple, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to guess so many things!

As the two of them continued to advance, the bones in front of them became more and more numerous. Looking at the bones of different shapes falling to the ground, for some reason, Zhang Liang's back only felt cold sweat!

Zhang Liang had never imagined that there would be such a strange place in this secret realm! The bones lying on the ground seemed to remind him all the time how dangerous it was here! If it weren't for the fact that Ling Zhan around him brought him some sense of security, I'm afraid Zhang Liang would have collapsed for a long time!

Zhang Liang said in a trembling voice, "Childe, what should we do next?"

Ling Zhan looked ahead and said coldly, "Keep walking, I want to see what tricks those people are doing?" Although he said that, in Ling Zhan's heart, he was even more worried about the other Ten Thousand Beast Heavenly Sect disciples!

If Yi Qiē was really as Ling Zhan imagined, then in the front, there would definitely be more outer disciples in the front, and it was very likely that the six people he wanted to protect would also be there! After all, the Soul Devouring Sect was the backbone of the outer disciples who wanted to kill them!

If their intelligence is good, those six people will definitely become their targets! Sometimes, killing one genius is far more important than killing a hundred ordinary martial artists!

However, what made Ling Zhan feel relieved was that the temperature of the spatial jade pendant in his hand had not changed, which meant that the few people he wanted to protect had not encountered real danger now!

At this time, Zhang Liang didn't know what Ling Zhan was thinking and guessing, when he heard Ling Zhan say to keep going, his face immediately became very ugly, and at the same time, there was a look of fear in his eyes, the danger ahead made him hesitate a little, he didn't know whether he should continue to move forward.

Zhang Liang said in a trembling voice: "Childe, do we really want to move on?"

Ling Zhan turned his head and glanced at Zhang Liang, and at this time, he realized that he didn't know when, Zhang Liang's face had become more and more pale, and at the same time, there was a trace of fear in his eyes!

Seeing Zhang Liang's appearance, Ling Zhan's brows furrowed! But he didn't say anything, after all, it was already quite an easy thing for him to come to this place.

However, Ling Zhan still asked, "Are you scared?"

Zhang Liang hurriedly stiffened his head and said: "Childe said it was funny, how could I be afraid!"

At this moment, Zhang Liang's voice trembled incomparably, and from this sentence, it showed more and more what he really thought in his heart at this time!

When these words were spoken, and when he saw the meaningful smile on Ling Zhan's face, as well as the deep eyes that seemed to be able to see through him completely, Zhang Liang said helplessly: "Childe, you are right, I am indeed scared! Childe, now that there are so many corpses here, God knows what is more dangerous ahead!"

Ling Zhan said, "Then what should I do next?"

Zhang Liang said: "Get out of here! With the skills of the son, it shouldn't be difficult to get out of here safely!"

Ling Zhan shook his head and said, "Leave here? If we leave here, the secret here will become a mystery forever! Do you think that the death of these sect seniors is not clear?"

Originally, Zhang Liang also wanted to say that what does this have to do with himself. But he was sure that once he said this, Ling Zhan would immediately throw him in this place and leave him to fend for himself!
