......

In the evening, Hong Ze and Lu Xuan returned to the auction house and participated in the auction.

Due to Lu Xuan's relationship, the admission ticket in Hong Ze's hand seemed a bit redundant, and the auction lasted for more than two hours, and the two pieces of flame red iron given by Hong Ze were auctioned for a total of 1 million taels of silver.

Most of the goods auctioned at the auction were some spiritual weapons, pills, armor, materials, etc., which were not particularly needed for Hong Ze, and Lu Xuan also didn't need these things, but she spent a lot of money to buy a mirror and a hairpin.

It was late at night when I left the auction house.

"You've made so much money, why don't you buy something?" Lu Xuan asked Hong Ze on the way back to the inn.

"It's all, not what I want. Hong Ze said.

There are a lot of strange props in his system warehouse, all of which are artifacts, and he can't look down on ordinary goods at all.

"Also, there is nothing I want except beautiful clothes and jewelry. Lu Xuan said.

As a high-profile genius disciple of the Yunyao Sect, she had countless cultivation resources, so naturally she didn't need to buy anything.

The two men walked side by side on the street, chatting as they walked, and it was late at night, and there were few pedestrians on the street, except for some lanterns swaying in the wind.

Suddenly, Hong Ze felt a chill down his spine, as if some danger was coming towards him quickly.

Hong Ze held the Soul Eater Knife in his hand, turned around and slashed it away.

"Bell!" there was a piercing sound of weapons cliding.

A man in black armed with a steel knife was shocked back by Hong Ze's knife.

Someone actually sneaked attacked, but fortunately, Hong Ze reacted alertly.

At this time, six masked black-clothed men jumped out of the night and surrounded Hong Ze and Lu Xuan.

All of them are armed with steel knives, and at first glance, they are not good.

"Robbery?"

This was the first reaction in Hong Ze's mind, after all, they had just come out of the auction house and had a lot of money on them.

The man in black, who was shocked back by Hong Ze's knife, looked at Hong Ze with wide eyes.

"I really didn't expect that you could actually take my exquisite back knife, but don't be complacent, because I only used five successful powers, and my "Stripping Knife Method" has been cultivated to the transformation realm, no one below the Martial Sect is my opponent, boy, I will let you die a little faster, be a good person in the next life, don't be so arrogant and offend people who shouldn't be offended. "The man in black.

"Huh?" Hong Ze glanced at the man in black with a confused expression, and turned back to Lu Xuan and said, "Senior Sister Lu, is there so much nonsense about robberies now?"

"Nope. Lu Xuan shook his head and said, "This person is eighty percent wrong." ”

"I see. Hong Ze shrugged his shoulders and said, "In that case, then kill him, lest he tarnish the great profession of bandits." ”

With that, Hong Ze's body suddenly turned into a phantom, and instantly moved in front of the man in black, and at the same time, his soul devouring knife stabbed into the chest of the man in black.

"How did you kill him with a single sword? Lu Xuan laughed teasingly, "He just said that no one below the Martial Sect is his opponent, so you can save him some face." ”

"Oh, yes. Hong Ze regretfully said to the man in black, "I'm sorry, I made a move too quickly and couldn't give you a chance to show it, but don't be annoyed, hurry up and reincarnate, and practice hard in the next life." ”

Hong Ze pulled out the mad knife, and the man in black fell in shock.

Seeing this, the other six men in black turned around and fled.

"Listening to what he just said, it seems that you have offended someone. Lu Xuan came to Hong Ze's side and said.

"I've offended so many people that I can't even count them myself. Hong Ze shrugged, having said that, he already knew it in his heart.

Hong Ze squatted down and searched the body of the man in black, hoping to find out who sent him.

"Well, what is it?"

Hong Ze searched for a palm-sized card from the clothes of the man in black.

When I looked closely, I saw a vertical word written on the card:

"Entrance ticket to the secret realm of the ancient city. ”

"Ah, that's a good thing. Lu Xuan snatched the card excitedly.

"Isn't it just a secret realm admission ticket?" Hong Ze said disdainfully.

"You don't know this, the ancient city secret realm is a martial arts level secret realm under the control of the 'Tianwu Chamber of Commerce', and once you enter it, the ticket costs 500,000 taels of silver. Do you know the Tenmu Shogun? The Tenmu Auction House is an industry under the Tenmu Shogun, and it is said that the boss behind the Tenmu Shogun is the royal family of Aoki Province. ”

"What kind of secret realm is this ancient city secret realm, and the tickets are so expensive?"

"In the secret realm of this ancient city, there are no spirit crystals, no flame red essence iron, and no valuable materials, but the demon king inside will produce an extremely rare 'inner pill'. ”

"What Neidan?" asked Hong Ze curiously.

"Fire Spirit Inner Pill, it is said that after this kind of Inner Pill is taken, there is a 1% probability of opening up a fire spirit vein. ”

"Cut, with a probability of only 1%, you have to spend 500,000 taels to buy tickets, and the martial arts chamber of commerce is too good at making money this day. Hong Ze said disdainfully.

"Although there is only a 1% probability, there are still many people who are desperately throwing money into it, you know, opening up a spiritual vein, it is reborn, and it is worth it no matter how much money you spend. ”

"Then why don't we go to the secret realm of the ancient city? This ticket is for one team, and the two of us can go together. ”

"Okay, it's too late today, I'll go tomorrow morning when I'm full of energy. ”

So the two went back to the inn.

Before leaving, Hong Ze's body in black bowed and said, "Thank you for sending 500,000 silver, you can rest in peace." ”

......

Early the next morning.

Hong Ze and Lu Xuan came to the entrance of the secret realm of the ancient city.

Located in the center of the city, this secret realm is surrounded by towering walls and is extremely well guarded, allowing only one team to enter at a time.

The two entered the secret realm.

This is an abandoned ancient city, the area is about half the size of Yunyao City, there are broken walls and ruins everywhere, and on the withered dead branches, there are a few black crows, croaking, a desolate scene.

Beyond the ancient city is an endless void, and the entire ancient city is located on a floating island in the void.

The ruins are littered with skeletons and zombies.

"Are you going to kill the Demon King directly?" Hong Ze said.

"No, we must clean up all the skeletons and zombies first, because the demon king here will summon all the skeletons and zombies, there are hundreds of skeletons and zombies in total, and we can't deal with so many at once. Lu Xuan said, obviously this is not the first time she has been here.

"Let's get started. ”

Hong Ze carried the Soul Eater Knife and slashed at a zombie in the distance, while Lu Xuan killed in the other direction, these skeletons and zombies were relatively easy to deal with, so the two soldiers were divided into two ways.
