Chapter 118: A Strange Quest (Part II)

The ape spirit stopped, looked at the black-robed man, and asked, "What do you want me to do?"

The black-robed man said, "Help me investigate this thing." As he spoke, he threw an item to the ape spirit.

The ape spirit took a look, it was a piece of jade, it was artificially carved, it was hexagonal, there was nothing on the jade, it didn't seem to be anything special.

The ape spirit frowned and said, "You let me check this thing, you should always give me a clue." ”

The black-robed man said, "You should be able to find some clues when you go to Black Wind Town. Come here when you figure out the secret behind this piece of jade. I'll give you the reward when the time comes. After saying that, he rose into the air and disappeared into the sky as a black lightning bolt.

The ape spirit looked at it several times, and there was still no response when he input the power of yin and yang, he really didn't understand what it was.

Lin Xiang'er took the jade from the ape spirit's hand, looked at it a few times, and found no clues, and was also very curious in her heart, and said, "This looks like it's just an ordinary jade, I don't know what that person wants us to check?"

The ape spirit took the jade again, put it into his spatial ring, and said, "Just because I don't know, I want to check, and if I can make such a master care, it must not be an ordinary thing." Let's hurry to that Black Wind Town. ”

Lin Xiang'er took out a compass and typed the three words Black Wind Town into it, and a projection appeared in the sky, clearly marking the route to Black Wind Town.

The ape spirit couldn't help but admire, "This thing is so useful. I'll get one that day so I don't have to worry about getting lost. ”

Lin Xiang'er straightened her chest a little proudly, and said proudly, "This is what I refined myself, and this is the only one in the entire immortal world." If you want me, I can help you refine it, but you have to pay me for the materials. ”

The ape spirit glanced at Lin Xiang'er and said, "Okay." When you have time, help me refine one, as for the material money, I will help me cushion it first, and I will return it to you when I have money. ”

Lin Xiang'er was originally just a joke, but she didn't expect the ape spirit to take it seriously, puffing out her cheeks and saying, "A big man doesn't understand humor." Ignore you. After saying that, he flew away.

The ape spirit scratched his head, puzzled, "What did I say wrong?"

After flying all day, the ape spirit and Lin Xiang'er only walked a tenth of the distance, and when night fell, the ape spirit and Lin Xiang'er landed in an open space, simply cleaned up and lay down.

The stars twinkle in the sky, like jewels dotted on a piece of cloth, and it looks extremely beautiful.

Lin Xiang'er looked at the starry sky and couldn't help but ask, "Ape Spirit, you said that you are a loose cultivator, but why do you have such a strong combat power?"

The ape spirit said lightly, "It's just that I'm lucky to have the help of a friend." ”

As soon as Lin Xiang'er heard the word friend, the corners of her eyes suddenly moistened, and she smiled, "Friend." I really envy you, most of the casual cultivators fight in order to compete for limited resources, and there are very few real friends. In the face of absolute interests, friends or something are just the cheapest things. At the end of the sentence, the ape spirit could clearly hear the anger in his words.

The ape spirit looked at Lin Xiang'er and asked, "You were betrayed by your friend?"

A figure flashed in Lin Xiang'er's mind, nodded, and said, "That's right." And he's the one I trust the most. But maybe I have to thank him, if it weren't for his betrayal, it wouldn't have been possible for me to practice hard, and it was because of the attachment in my heart that I was able to survive the tribulation. ”

Looking at Lin Xiang'er's slightly trembling shoulders, the ape spirit turned around and said, "It's not early, let's rest early." ”

A tear finally couldn't help but slip from the corner of her eyes, Lin Xiang'er's fists clenched tightly, and her eyes were full of hatred.

The next day, Ape Spirit and Lin Xiang'er started to hurry early in the morning, without saying anything all the way, which also greatly accelerated the speed of the journey, and on the fifth day, they came to Black Wind Town.

It's just that when they entered Black Wind Town, they found an anomaly, and the streets that should have been bustling were quiet at the moment, without any sound at all.

Walking down the street, the shops on both sides are all open. I picked a shop that sold materials and entered, and all kinds of things were still there, but the people disappeared without a trace, and the items on display had a thick layer of dust, and it seemed that the status quo had been maintained for a while.

It took them a whole morning to go around the town of Blackwind, and as they expected, they didn't find anyone. There's a weirdness to the whole town.

The ape spirit frowned, "What the hell is going on, how can it be as if everyone has disappeared out of thin air?"

Lin Xiang'er looked at the weeds that had come out on the side of the street, and said, "It seems that no one has come here for a while." Otherwise, such a bizarre thing would have spread long ago. ”

The ape spirit took out the jade and said, "It seems that the clue is broken like this." ”

At this time, the jade suddenly emitted a faint light, which made the ape spirit and Lin Xiang'er can't help but lift their spirits.

Although it was still very weak, the ape spirit could feel that something was resonating with the jade somewhere in Black Wind Town, and with this faint connection, the ape spirit and Lin Xiang'er came to a private house.

Pushing the door in, the jade suddenly emitted a strong jade light, a ray of light shot out, and it sank into the ground of the room, and then a formation floated from the ground, and the light flashed, and a passage deep into the underground appeared in front of him.

The passage has appeared, and the jade has returned to its original state, just like ordinary jade.

Ape Spirit and Lin Xiang'er glanced at each other, nodded and walked in together.

The passage was very dark, there was no light, and even the ape spirit couldn't see anything beyond a step, let alone Lin Xiang'er, now she was only able to move forward by holding the ape spirit's arm. Not knowing what was inside, they all gave up lighting the passage and could only move forward in the dark.

About a kilometer deep into the ground, two flames suddenly lit up in front of him, and a large gate appeared in front of the ape spirit under the light of the firelight.

The pattern carved on the gate is very special, half carved with humans, half carved with various demon races, but in the middle is carved with half-human and half-demon creatures, which makes the ape spirit immediately think of Gucci, and thinks, "Could this jade have something to do with Gucci?"

With this question in mind, the ape spirit stepped forward to push the door open, but his hand stopped halfway through.

Lin Xiang'er wondered, "What's wrong?"

The ape spirit made a silent gesture and pushed his hand forward, and immediately a layer of light appeared from the gate, and then the carved eyes lit up slightly.

The ape spirit withdrew his hand, the light disappeared, and the eyes on the carving dimmed again, and now Lin Xiang'er also understood, presumably this gate was set up with a layer of formation, as for what type it was, it was not very clear.

The ape spirit understood from just now that this was not a layer of formations at all, there were several formations behind the gate and the formations on the surface of the gate were interlocked, as long as one of the rings was touched, he would be attacked by all the formations, because he didn't know how powerful the formation was, he didn't dare to act rashly.

The ape spirit frowned, "It seems that some people don't want the contents to be discovered. ”

Lin Xiang'er looked at the gate and asked, "Can you crack this formation?"

The ape spirit thought for a moment and said, "I'll give it a try." As he spoke, he slowly came to a place three meters away from the gate.

Lin Xiang'er stepped aside with interest, curious in his heart how the ape spirit could crack the formation on the gate.

The ape spirit summoned the hundred changes, let it split into eight, and suspended each hexagram on the gate respectively, and then the mind moved, and the eight hundred changes kept hitting the gate at a very fast speed, each time it would make a light flash on the gate, and as time went on, the flickering light on the gate became fainter and fainter, and finally hit each hexagram at the same time, the formation broke in response, and the gate slowly opened.

It's just that when the door opened, a smell of decay came to his face, and even the ape spirit retched when he smelled it, and waved his hand, and a strong wind blew, taking away all the stench.

Ape Spirit and Lin Xiang'er entered the gate at this time, but when they saw the situation inside the gate, they couldn't help but be stunned.

Behind the gate was a huge underground hall, and the ground around the hall was carved with formations, and there was a large formation in the middle of every two formations. And in each formation lay a corpse quietly, and the smell of just decaying came from these corpses.

Lin Xiang'er turned his face away and didn't dare to look at it again, while the ape spirit came to a corpse and began to examine it.

He estimated that the corpse had been dead for nearly three months, with almost a skeleton remaining, and he could not find any useful information at all, but another corpse next to this corpse caught his attention.

The ape spirit checked the corpse and found that it was not a human, but a crocodile, and checked it with the Yuan Shen and found that there was still a little bit of demon yuan left in the crocodile's body, which means that this crocodile has been cultivated into a demon.

Recalling Gucci's demonization, and then looking at the corpse in front of him, the ape spirit had already understood, and a wave of anger came out uncontrollably. He never expected that someone would do such a thing, which was a blasphemy against nature.

Lin Xiang'er took a deep breath and began to check the corpses around her, and also found these, a pair of willow eyebrows furrowed tightly, a pair of big eyes also revealed infinite anger, a heavy snort, and a gurgling sound of silver teeth.

The ape spirit calmed his anger and began to examine each corpse one by one. He found that the corpses in the smaller formations retained their original form, while the corpses in the larger formations had changed beyond recognition, and the only common denominator was that the human part accounted for the majority, and only a small part was replaced by the body of a demon.

In the end, the ape spirit and Lin Xiang'er came to the middle of the hall, and now they are in a terrible mood, the ape spirit is because of what humans have done to the demon clan, and Lin Xiang'er is because someone actually uses people as experimental subjects, if this practice is spread, it will definitely cause an uproar.
