Qin Peng was panting and sitting on the side of a dark corner formed by a pile of rubble somewhere. He used the pile of rocks to hide his body. No matter where there was movement on either side of the passage, he could sense it immediately.
This time was even more thrilling than the previous battle with Jiang Mengying in the dense forest. At least he had a backup plan at that time, but tonight it was completely unexpected.
Fortunately, he responded in time and did not lose his life here.
However, this also proves that the rewards from the virtual panel are not that easy to get. Qin Peng found that the higher the reward each time, the more difficult and dangerous the things he did were.
If he was lucky enough to find the Demon Emperor's Cave this time, he vowed not to take any orders next time!
Using the Nine Yang Wuji Kung Fu, Qin Peng healed his wounds silently. He did not dare to stay in one place for too long, and would move around every few minutes.
If you put aside ordinary internal skills and mental methods, this method cannot heal the injury at all, but the Nine-Yang Wuji Kung Fu is really terrifying. Every time the Nine-Yang True Qi passes through a place, the injuries on the body are like being soaked in a hot spring and are gradually healing.
In the second half of the night, Qin Peng himself couldn't figure out where he had wandered around, but the blood stains on the ground became more and more obvious, and the smell of blood was getting worse. He speculated that this place should be the place where the heroes of the rivers and lakes fought.
There is a large broken stone gate in front, which is ten feet high. Only a few broken walls remain. The ground is full of cracks and unevenness. There are both weapon fragments and countless human tissues in the cracks.
This is what it looked like after Jin Yisi cleaned up the scene. It can be seen that for the opportunity of the Demon Emperor, those gangsters really had their brains knocked out!
Qin Peng first sensed the situation behind the stone gate and made sure that no one was there, then he cautiously walked in.
The stone chamber is very large, and there are grooves everywhere on the walls, which should have been used to place things, but the layout inside has long been out of shape, and even if there was any, it was probably destroyed.
There were some new footprints on the ground, and there were signs that some debris had been turned over. Qin Peng's eyes flickered, suspecting that Jiang Mengying and others had come in.
After walking around the stone chamber, Qin Peng found nothing and couldn't help but shook his head mockingly.
There are so many outstanding people in the world, why would he think that he can discover secrets that others cannot find? He is not the protagonist!
This thought suddenly made Qin Peng raise his eyebrows. Bai Zhongyu should have come in with Jiang Mengying and others, and he didn't even notice the chance of being the destined protagonist?
Although not all opportunities in this world belong to the protagonist, generally speaking, in a place like the Demon Emperor's Cave, where the protagonist has come, he should gain something.
Judging from the situation at the scene, Bai Zhongyu and others did not find anything.
Could it be that he had guessed wrong and that Bai Zhongyu and others had not come in yet? But with so many footprints at the scene, it was unlikely that they were someone else.
Qin Peng's eyes flashed as he recalled the past events. If there was any mistake, it was probably the Nine Yang Wuji Kung Fu. This internal skill that should have belonged to Bai Zhongyu was now mastered by him.
So, could the opportunity here be related to Jiuyang Wuji Gong?
This idea was a bit ridiculous, but Qin Peng had the mentality that it wouldn't hurt to give it a try, so he decisively used all his strength, and a layer of Nine Yang Qi spread out, quickly spreading throughout the entire stone chamber.
In his current state, the injury was indeed affected. Just as he was about to quickly withdraw his inner strength, Qin Peng's eyes suddenly turned blazing and he suddenly turned to look at a corner against the wall to the east.
In this corner, there was an aura from the ground that seemed to sense the same kind. In an instant, it was like a tiger opening its eyes, and an extremely terrifying aura erupted.
Jiuyang is so angry!
No, this is no longer Jiuyang Zhenqi. Although it comes from the same source, it is countless times purer than Qin Peng's Jiuyang Zhenqi. This is the breath that can only be obtained when the Nine Yang Wuji Kung Fu is practiced to the extreme.
!
To Qin Peng's relief, this terrifying aura only appeared for a moment and then suddenly dissipated in the surrounding area. Since then, there has been no movement.
Qin Peng wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and stayed in place for a long time. After all, he couldn't resist the temptation of the Demon Emperor's opportunity and walked step by step to the east corner.
If there was really a threat underground, something would have happened to him just now, not to mention that when he tested it with Nine Yang Qi again, there was nothing abnormal underground.
"If God doesn't take what he wants, he will take the blame instead. It should be fine."
Qin Peng pulled out the Red Dragon Sword, and the benefits of the magic weapon were revealed at this time. The Red Dragon Sword cut iron like mud, Qin Peng controlled his internal force, cut a rectangle out of the ground, and then cut it along the cut side.
Pry up the rectangular stone.
He kept digging downwards while paying attention to the situation outside the stone room. In his current state, if a stronger expert blocks the door, he will definitely die tonight.
The movements in Qin Peng's hands continued to speed up, with his heart in his throat all the time. He dug for a while, and because of his hasty movements, he became disgraced.
His hands were so sore that he could hardly lift them, but he held his breath and used his strength to pry the rocks underground, but the rocks he pried became smaller and smaller.
boom!
Another stone was thrown away, and Qin Peng half-knelt on the ground. He was so tired that he could only support his body with his sword. The hand holding the sword was cracked, and the back of his palm was full of swollen veins and blood vessels.
Qin Peng was soaked to the skin, but his eyes were brighter than ever, because right under his feet lay a long wooden box quietly.
The wooden box is gray-brown in color and looks very old at first glance. The texture on the surface exudes a sense of simplicity. It is locked with a small lock made of pure gold, showing how precious it is to the owner.
From this wooden box, Qin Peng sensed the Nine Yang Qi that had recently dispersed.
It is impossible for a wooden box to store internal energy, so the only explanation should be that the owner of the wooden box often touches the wooden box, and over time, the wooden box also takes on the owner's aura.
But if this is the case, the strength of the owner of the wooden box is too terrifying and unbelievable!
Qin Peng took a deep breath, raised his other hand, and grabbed the wooden box. He didn't dare to delay at all. He picked up the three-foot-long wooden box, jumped directly to the ground, and then rushed forward with all his strength without looking back.
When leaving the stone room, every fork in the road will be sensed in advance, lest you bump into Jiang Mengying and others.
Fortunately, he was very lucky this time and did not meet any martial arts masters along the way.
However, when he arrived at the underground entrance, Qin Peng did not rush out immediately. If he was Jiang Mengying and others and wanted to kill him, the best way would be to block the underground entrance and wait for him to come out at any time.
Looking up, a wisp of moonlight shone on the side of the stone wall in front of him. The moonlight was dim, and there was no movement at the entrance of the cave above. It was precisely this that made Qin Peng feel the danger.
Qin Peng backed away slowly, not daring to make a sound, his expression unclear in the darkness.
A group of people were surrounding the underground entrance above, and it turned out to be Jiang Mengying and others.
After waiting for a while, Yu Chitao whispered: "Fairy Jiang, in your opinion, Qin Peng's staff is extremely insidious. Could it be that he has already left?"
Jiang Mengying pondered for a moment and replied: "It's hard to say. With Qin Peng's caution, he should have left here as soon as possible. But at that time, he was in a panic and he might not be able to find the exit so quickly.
Moreover, Qin Peng has a rather contradictory personality. On the one hand, he is very cautious, but sometimes he is also terrifyingly bold. When he was not strong enough, he still dared to ask Mengying for a decisive battle.
Tonight, he went deep into this place to prove that he is attracted by the Devil Emperor's chance, and he might do the opposite. It's a pity that such a talented person is willing to surrender to the Devil."
Listening to Jiang Xianzi's half-emotional words, which actually seemed to be praising Qin Peng, Yu Chitao and others felt uncomfortable.
A young man said murderously: "I hope he has escaped, otherwise I don't believe that he can be an underground rat for the rest of his life. As long as he dares to come out, with our combined efforts, he can't kill just a Qin Peng?"
