The success of the velvet promotion was the beginning, and in the following time, there were also people who began to advance one after another, but many of these people chose to advance after the third and fourth levels, because there were obviously a lot fewer people in their team, or they all suffered very serious injuries.

But on the third layer not long ago, Fan Zhong also encountered a lot of trouble.

After taking the blood essence, Fan Zhong obviously felt that his physical body had been rapidly improved, and before he tried the blood essence, he was actually thinking about whether to give up the path of dual cultivation of magic and martial arts;

For a salted fish of Fan Chong's level, paddling quietly on the side, occasionally putting some skills or something is the most suitable for himself, in the world of the Apocalypse, there are many players like himself who are carrying out the final task - faith collection!

If it weren't for the 'greed' mark left on his body, he would not be able to leave the Apocalypse World, Fan Zhong actually didn't want to continue to stay in this Apocalypse World, but the current situation was that he had no other choice, and he had to wash away the 'greed' mark in his body by collecting the beliefs of the orc tribe.

And if you want to gain faith, you have to complete various tasks, as the task continues to deepen, Fan Zhong also found that the danger accompanying the task is getting higher and higher, at this time, he also found that if he only relies on magic, it is difficult to complete the task.

However, the cultivation of the swordsman is not easier than the cultivation of the magician, and it is even more difficult, after all, the magician only needs to continuously gather the elements to transform the magic power through meditation, and finally master more magic arrays, and the two sides will eventually cause a qualitative change effect and achieve promotion.

As for the cultivation of the swordsman, although it seems very simple, strengthen the physical training, the practice of sword skills, but the physical change is very difficult, not only requires a long period of training, the master's teaching and guidance, and the most important medicinal materials.

There are actually very few types of medicinal herbs to strengthen the body, many of which are not affordable by ordinary civilians, Fan Chong's cultivation on the swordsman has neither the teachings of famous teachers nor medicinal materials, although with the help of the spirit template, Fan Zhong can quickly learn fire magic.

However, now that Fan Zhong also has the talent of space magic, the exploration process of the space magic array is more cumbersome than that of fire magic, so in this case, he will not have more time to exercise his physical body, let alone promote to the realm of a swordsman.

In the end, before coming to the Scarlet Purgatory, although Fan Zhong obtained a set of sharp sword skills from the Broken Heart Sword, he did not practice it, because at that time, he had already decided to give up the cultivation of the swordsman, after all, without a strong enough body, no matter how powerful the sword technique was, it could not show its original power.

But now, there is an opportunity in front of Fan Chong - blood essence, although now he doesn't know why he can't communicate with the template, but he knows that his physical fitness should be improved rapidly, then, of course, at this time, he shouldn't give up this opportunity to send to the door.

In the prison, he had already discovered that the Hu Qiu in front of him obviously had an unusual relationship with Dumbledore, because of this, Hu Qiu would take such care of his own human race, and even directly took out a low-priced blood essence for himself to eat;

Following Hu Qiu, Fan Chong found that he was actually the lowest level of a castle before, and now he came to the castle through the underground staircase, and first saw the first scene of the castle, giving Fan Chong the image that this is a place full of dangers;

The castle is full of orcs wearing blood-colored armor, which is difficult to see in ordinary orc tribes, because the body of an orc warrior is trained to withstand the great power brought by talent;

This also allowed them to withstand the attacks of the vast majority of demonic beasts in battle, so they didn't need the protection of armor, just relying on their strong flesh was enough, but here, Fan Zhong found that the protection on the bodies of these orc warriors was almost armed to the teeth.

Although Fan Chong's heart was full of doubts, but he didn't have time for Fan Chong to think about this, Hu Qiu quickly asked those orc soldiers to bring two ostrich-like demonic beasts and let Fan Chong ride on.

"This is a unique magical beast in the third-layer purgatory space, it is a first-level low-level magical beast, it is not aggressive, but its speed and endurance are very fast, this is the reward we received after repelling the medium-sized red tide again;

Ride up, we'll have to hurry up, or the red tide will come near the castle, and your reward will be divided among the others, if you will, I didn't say that. ”

"Red tide? what is that?" Hu Qiu has been talking about this 'red tide' since he was just in prison, and he is very cautious every time he says it.

"Do you know why the third layer is called the Purgatory Space?" Hearing Fan Chong's question, Hu Qiu did not answer immediately, but asked Fan Chong instead.

"Is it because of the magma environment here?"

"Hehe, this is just one of the reasons, purgatory, not only because of the environment of fire purification, but more importantly, this 'prison'. ”

"'Prison'? Could it be that the space on the third floor is a prison?" Hearing Hu Qiu's special attention to the word 'prison', Fan Zhong seemed to think of something.

"Yes, the purgatory space is generally a prison space, but we are not the imprisoned side, but the role of the guard! Come up first, I will explain to you slowly on the way, if you don't set off, you really won't get any benefits. ”

Hearing Hu Qiu's words, Fan Chong's curiosity was also aroused, so he rode on this ostrich-like magical beast, drove to follow Hu Qiu, and with the opening of the castle gate, through the distance, he saw the specific environment of the third layer clearly.

The castle is built on a high mountain, and a little further away are countless reefs and intricate lava craters, and there is very little land in a single place, except for a straight path in front of the castle gates.

Riding on the ostrich beast's body, Fan Zhong found that the farther away from the castle's location, the surrounding magma pits and the magma ocean became wider and wider, and at this time, Hu Qiu's voice began to recount to Fan about the red tide.

"'Red Tide' is just the most common phenomenon in the purgatory space, after everyone passes through the second layer, they will come to the mezzanine space of the second and third layers, which is the path of purgatory, I should have seen it. ”

"Is it the long black road that has no end and is wrapped in enchantments?"

"Yes, that is the path of purgatory, and it is also the first benefit of coming to the third layer of purgatory space, if you absorb the snow scene on the path of purgatory, it will make the body absorb the blood essence energy At the same time, the path of purgatory will also help the absorber temper the body and get rid of the magazines in the body. ”

"Yes, then how did I get down?" Listening to Hu Qiu's explanation, although Fan Chong was a little remorseful, but thinking of himself, what he had obtained was a high-level blood essence, which his body seemed to be unable to absorb, and there was no other benefit on the purgatory road except for staying.

"If it was an orc in the past, after completing the absorption of blood essence, you could come to the third layer of space under the leadership of George, I heard that when I found you at that time, I was in a pile of ruins, how did you kid come down. ”

Hearing Hu Qiu's inquiry, Fan Chonghui remembered his performance on the path of purgatory, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, so he changed the topic, "Grandpa Hu Qiu, you haven't said what 'Red Tide' is?"

"Why didn't you say it, the red tide is just a recurring phenomenon after all, and the reason for this phenomenon is the collapse and reconstruction of the purgatory road.

The Path of Purgatory is a special existence, it will periodically collapse and rebuild, and the time of each collapse is mostly about 1 month, in addition, there is also a phenomenon that there are new intruders, such as newcomers promoted from the second level. ”

"What does the red tide look like?"

"What's that? hehe, it's definitely not what you want to see, well, we should be there, how do you feel now?"

Suddenly, Hu Qiu in front of him suddenly restrained the running demonic beast, looked at the surrounding magma pits, and walked all the way, Fan Zhong was also in a large number of surrounding environments, and found that although there were many magma pits, most of them had been quiet, and the magma pits here were surging.

"Don't you want to know what's inside the red tide? they're coming, make good use of the magician's mental mind to perceive it!"

After Hu Qiu finished saying this, suddenly a pillar of fire suddenly erupted from the magma pit that was still tumbling not far away, and then one after another small pit also began to erupt, and the magma jet quickly imprinted a violent shock of the surrounding environment, and the pillar of flame that shot into the sky finally slowly gathered into a huge light curtain.

At this time, Fan Chong suddenly felt as if he was being stared at by countless pairs of eyes, and this feeling came from the magma fire curtain.
