Zhong Chen looked around for a while, and after confirming that there was indeed no danger nearby, he carefully approached the statue and looked at it carefully.

The surface of the statue is faintly glowing with a gray-white luster, which should not be carved from ordinary stones. The materials used are somewhat similar to the statue of ancestors that must be worshiped in the annual Zhong Family Holy Land.

Zhong Chen's eyes swept over from top to bottom little by little. When his eyes saw the waist of the statue, he suddenly felt a burst of heat coming from his left wrist.

He was shocked and quickly lowered his head and glanced at the silver wrist guard. He saw a layer of blood lit up with a faint light, and it flashed in a daze.

Zhong Chen's heart was slightly sank. After a little hesitation, he finally grabbed the silver wrist guard with his other hand and carefully took it off.

I saw that the place where his left hand was originally covered by a wrist guard, there was a tattoo-like rune mark, composed of thin blood-colored lines, densely spread throughout the wrist, extremely complex.

This rune mark is flashing with dazzling blood, with an intensity of almost several times that of previous wrist guards.

Zhong Chen's face looked a little ugly. He touched the rune mark on his wrist with his fingers, but only felt a little warm, which was very different from the heat felt on his wrist.

He glanced at the statue again, and his face changed again.

I remembered clearly before that the waist of the statue was completely empty, but at this moment there was an additional hanging gray-white lithograph, the size of a fist.

He blinked hard, and when he stared at it carefully, a more strange scene appeared.

The off-white lithograph actually disappeared in a blur under its gaze.

Zhong Chen was a little stunned.

Suddenly, he felt something again, and raised his head suddenly, and his heart was filled with coldness.

The statue of Confucian scholar who was supposed to look up at the sky was still looking down at him at some point, and his eyes flashed like a living thing.

Zhong Chen felt his hair standing upside down, and the rune marks on his wrist became even more tingling and high temperature, and an indescribable and extremely dangerous feeling enveloped his whole body.

With a "swoosh", his body instantly ejaculated backwards. After a few flashes, he returned to the edge of the fog sea before stopping.

At this time, he looked at the statue's face and looked gloomy. After a while, he stomped his feet, made a big circle, and drove away from the statue and plunged into the forest.

This thing is so weird and feels so dangerous, so it is natural not to provoke it.

As soon as the other side entered the forest, the heat of the rune mark on their wrist disappeared without a trace.

Zhong Chen then breathed a sigh of relief, put the silver wrist guard on his left hand again, covering the rune mark again.

This blood-colored rune mark was the nine ghost blood mark he had worked hard to extract. After trying it a little, he felt that it was of infinite use and it was also his biggest trump card to enter the Nightmare Palace this time.

A pair of blue water wheels appeared again under Zhong Chen's foot, lifting his body up several feet above the ground, and taking out a disc from his arms. After one hand pointing the void a few times, a white miniature map appeared on it. Although the area was not large, there were all the tiny mountains, rivers, and other forms inside.

After he looked at the map for a few glances, his brows frowned.

The map on the disc is the area that the disciples of the Zhong family have explored after entering the Nightmare Palace for many years, and have been refined by the Zhong family's weapon refining master to form a special magic weapon. As long as they are in these areas, they will naturally show their location.

But now that it is not displayed, it is most likely that this forest is an area that has not been explored. In terms of the vastness of Nightmare Palace, this is a common thing, but as long as you look to the center, you can always find the area that the map can display.

His main goal of the Nightmare Palace this time was naturally the Divine Ding Peak that gave birth to Taiyi Dan, as well as all other magical and magic weapons that could improve the level and success rate of the elixir. Zhong Chen thought so, and hesitated to make a gesture with one hand, rolled his foot under the water wheel, and flew into the depths of the forest.

But what Zhong Chen didn't know was that not long after he entered the forest, the statue of Confucian scholar in the open space turned his head slowly and stared at the direction where Zhong Chen disappeared for a long time before a blurred and silent mystery disappeared.

...

After a meal, Zhong Chen found that he underestimated this seemingly ordinary forest. At this moment, he was surrounded by gray giant wolf jumping out of the ground.

The backs of the four demon wolfs are slightly raised, with a shiny black fur, but the four claws are surrounded by white silk. It is the iron-backed wolf, which is also famous among the demon wolf.

The back of this kind of wolf beast is as hard as iron. Not only can it fly at low altitudes with its talent on its claws, but it is better at siege and attack techniques. Often, monsters that are one higher than them will become objects in the belly of this kind of wolf beast. Of course, the claws of these wolf beasts are also good materials for cultivators to refine wind-attribute magic weapons.

When Zhong Chen was thinking so, the largest of the four wolf beasts made a low growl in his throat, and his body shrank back and rushed up with a fishy storm.

The other three jumped up one by one, and the rhythm was extremely precise, just right, so that the prey surrounded by the depths had no chance to breathe.

Zhong Chen raised his eyebrows, and suddenly a crisp ringtone came from his sleeve. The four wolf beasts that rushed towards him immediately condensed in the air and stopped for half a beat.

A cold light flashed.

A green light shot out from Zhong Chen's other sleeve, instantly cutting the four wolf beasts into eight pieces, and large pieces of blood sprinkled down.

After a cup of tea, only the remains of the wolves of the wolf beast with eight claws were left on the forest floor, which attracted a full meal of a monster that looked like a pangolin.

More than half an hour later, a huge mantis completely trapped in it by a blue water ball finally took her last breath, and the body was covered with sword marks.

Zhong Chen dispersed the magic trick in his hand and flew past the corpse with a serious expression.

Half a day later, Zhong Chen fought with a one-horned python that was more than ten feet long and was indissoluble.

A thick blue water ring around him circling and flying, his figure suddenly appeared like a ghost. A yellow bell above his head made a crisp "clang" sound from time to time, and a green light about a foot circling and flying up and down in front, leaving wounds on the huge body of the giant python from time to time.

...

A day later, Zhong Chen was in a tree hole, playing with the huge horn of the giant python in his hand, muttering to himself: "The Nightmare Palace is well-known, but it is indeed very dangerous. He has not yet walked out of this forest in one day, but he almost consumed all his magic power first. It seems that the road below must be more cautious. If you think of a way, you cannot break through it like this recklessly."

He looked at the horn in his hand and fell into deep thought.

The next morning, Zhong Chen, who had meditated for a long time and recovered his magic power, set off on the road again.

But this time, a simple skin appeared on his waist, and a faint smell of fishy smell came out, which was vaguely the breath of the killed giant python.

As a result, for a long time, he was not attacked by other monsters again, which made Zhong Chen very happy.

It seems that he was right. The black giant python is not weak. The demonic magic sparse made with its unicorn as materials can indeed allow ordinary monsters to avoid it far away.

In this way, he would save a lot of trouble by passing through this forest next.

...

In a desolate desert, large tufts of yellow sand fog rolled, and bursting sounds came from it from time to time.

Suddenly, a bolt from the blue came out, and more than a dozen silver arcs burst out from the fog, instantly sweeping all the sand fog, revealing several figures.

One of them had a slender figure and ugly face. He was holding a crescent-shaped monster blade in his hand, with a flash of lightning on it.

There were three people standing next to it, and there was a corpse of a man whose head had been bitten off from half of his head, as well as another charred monster inside and outside.

The monster's corpse is two or three feet long, but its body is extremely flat, like a huge gecko that has magnified countless times, but its tail has a scorpion-like barb that flashes cold light, making people feel cold all over.

"I didn't expect that Zhong Tian fell here. However, we killed this sand beast to avenge it." Zhong Jinlong flipped his hand with one hand, and the monster blade in his hand disappeared, and he said slowly.

"I didn't expect that this Nightmare Palace is so dangerous. If we act together with the power of the five of us, some people will encounter an accident." A young man with slightly yellow hair said gloomy.

"That's right, if the Golden Dragon's Thunder Tooth Blade was not powerful and just restrained this beast, we might have to lie down one or two more." Another thin middle-aged man said.

"This is impossible. Speaking of which, Zhong Tian was also careless. This sand beast is already at the level of Great Perfection of Foundation Building, and is also in the home court of the desert, which is even more unpredictable." The last dark-skinned disciple of the Zhong family sighed.

"Okay, since you have entered the Nightmare Palace, you have already put your life and death aside. We have buried the remains of brother Zhong Tian, ​​and we must be more careful about the journey below." Zhong Jinlong took a deep breath and waved his hand and said.

The other three had no different opinions and immediately began to clean up the bodies of their companions on the ground.
