Chapter 219 The strangeness of the fifth forbidden area(5453 words)
"Chen Fan..."
Shangguan Canglong's face looked a little solemn and he whispered: "Do you want to tell Grandpa Zhang?"
"What did you say?" Chen Fan was stunned.
Shangguan Canglong said: "This matter about the Li family... Even if you, Chu Xuan and the others have nothing to do with Li Xinghe's death, if the Li family investigates, there will be trouble."
Chen Fan grinned and said, "Why, are you afraid that my master can't control the Li family?"
"Or are you afraid that my master won't want to fall out with the Li family for me?"
Shangguan Canglong and others stopped talking.
Chen Fan's master, Zhang Hai, came from the first family of beast breeders in the Tang Dynasty.
With so many forces and aristocratic families in the Tang Kingdom, how many of them would dare to challenge the Zhang family?
"Okay, stop looking so sad."
Chen Fan said: "I didn't take it seriously at all."
Before coming to the Magic City, Chen Fan was still a little nervous.
Because he has no idea how powerful the Li family is in the Magic City, nor how powerful the Zhang family, where his master belongs, is.
But now, he really doesn't take the Li family seriously.
First, Li Mu, who was considered the strongest in the Tang Dynasty, owed him a favor;
Although Li Mu's thigh has not really been embraced yet, six divine weapons and six Sumeru Rings were all given to Li Mu.
And he only needs to pay back a little "remuneration".
It's not just Li Mu who owes him a favor now.
Even Tang Guo owed him a favor!
You know, the things Chen Fan picked up from Qixing Mountain were enough to greatly increase the strength of several ninth-grade experts in the Tang Kingdom!
Secondly, although there is not much information about the Zhang family on the Internet, my nephew Zhang Chen has told Chen Fan a lot in the past few days...
The Zhang family in the imperial capital is not just the number one beast-breeding family in the Tang Dynasty!
Zhang Chen's third grandfather is also the master of Bai Baiyu, the lord of Donghai City... This dragon that never sees its end is also one of the patron saints of the Tang Dynasty!
His true strength may not be much worse than Li Mu!
In comparison, the Li family in the magical city cannot be put on the stage at all!
The people from the Li family are now going to the City Lord's Mansion to make a fuss. Even the City Lord's Mansion in the Demon City ignores them and suppresses the matter. Why is this?
Is it because the Heavenly Demon Sect is involved, so Tang Guo wants to turn big things into trivial matters?
Or is it that Li Mu secretly exerted pressure?
In other words, the officials of the Magic City are too afraid of the Zhang family of the Imperial Capital?
Chen Fan walked to the rocking chair next to him and lay down.
He didn't pay attention to the Li family's affairs at all.
What he is thinking about now is the four worlds connected by the beast control space.
The pillar in the Ancient God Realm is very similar to the Tongtian Divine Pillar of the Dutianye Clan in the dream.
If that pillar is really the Divine Pillar that reaches the sky, can Ye Hongyan collect that pillar like she collected the Sky-Breaking Demon Sword?
Are those dreams dreams or memory fragments?
There are countless question marks in Chen Fan's mind.
Some of these questions may be answered after seeing Ye Hongyan again.
Empress Dutian’s beauty at night...
The demon empress Ye Hongyan.
What the hell is going on?
Chen Fan frowned and sighed.
At this time, Gangzi rushed to Feng Tianlin's feet, knocked Feng Tianlin to the ground, and then leaped into Chen Fan's arms.
Chen Fan hugged Gangzi and helped him comb his hair.
Gangzi grinned and shook his head very comfortably.
Feng Tianlin cursed and stood up: "I play with cats, but you play with honey badgers. Aren't you afraid that Gangzi's fart will knock you out?"
Gangzi was furious, raised his head, and bared his teeth at Feng Tianlin.
Feng Tianlin knew that he couldn't offend Gangzi, so he flattened his mouth, looked at Shangguan Canglong and said, "How about I go back to find my father, and you go back to find yours and ask them to help?"
"Yeah, the Feng family, the Shangguan family, and the Chu family are putting pressure together. Will the Li family be able to go to heaven?"
Before Shangguan Canglong could speak, Shangguan Wulei poked Feng Tianlin's waist with his finger, and then pointed at the blind man on the other side who was playing with Jade.
"..." Feng Tianlin's body trembled and his eyes widened.
Yeah...
Almost forgot.
The four old men in Chen Fan's family are so scary, why should they be afraid of the Li family?
These old... old people can even alert Master Li Mu!
Feng Tianlin and Shangguan Canglong looked at each other and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, Feng Tianlin said again: "Chen Fan, you ask the No. 9 store to check and kick out all the beasts from the Li family. Don't let the beasts from the Li family sneak in."
"These idiots are begging your master while not taking your master seriously."
"If there are more slots for beast control in the ninth store, you might as well give me the Feng family."
"Please help me get a few numbers. I will send all the Feng family's beasts to the ninth store."
Chen Fan raised his head and looked at Feng Tianlin.
Feng Tianlin thought Chen Fan was going to hit someone, so he took a few steps back and then said: "My Feng family has a very good relationship with your master, and you and I are brothers. It's unreasonable if you don't take care of me."
Shangguan Canglong and Shangguan looked at each other without tears and said nothing.
This shameless thing...
Back when he ran to provoke Chen Fan in Donghai City, he was beaten up by Chen Fan. Now he keeps saying that he is Chen Fan's brother and wants to send the Feng family's beast control to the No. 9 store!
But Chen Fan nodded slightly and said, "Okay, I will definitely take more care of the beasts of the Feng family and Shangguan family."
"Okay, I'll ask Lin Xiao to give you two families ten numbers every day, and send ten beasts to the ninth store every day."
"Hahahahaha good!" Feng Tianlin was overjoyed: "I knew you were loyal!"
Shangguan Canglong also smiled and said: "Thank you!"
You're welcome, I still want to thank you... Chen Fan waved his hands and said nothing.
Suddenly, Feng Tianlin mysteriously approached Chen Fan and said, "By the way, have you heard about the fifth restricted area in the Demon City?"
The fifth restricted area?
Chen Fan's expression changed slightly: "What happened to the fifth restricted area?"
The fifth restricted area in the Magic City is the one that is said to have the colorful sacred stone.
Feng Tianlin pulled a chair over and sat down, and then said: "I heard that there are treasures in the fifth restricted area. People from the Nightmare Garden and the Demon Sect want to go in. There has been a lot of trouble near the fifth restricted area recently, and many people have died.
Strong."
"Someone saw that all the suspected seventh-grade grand masters were killed!"
Chen Fan sat up straight: "Even the seventh-grade grandmaster was killed?"
"Is it our Grandmaster from the Tang Kingdom, or from the Demon Sect?"
Feng Tianlin said: "No, it's from the Garden of Nightmares."
"The fifth restricted area is not far from the devil... We have a terrifying existence like Minister Li sitting in our devil's capital!"
"Those idiots in the Nightmare Court dare to come near the Magic City to show off. Aren't they looking for death?"
Shangguan Wulei said in a deep voice: "Knowing the danger, they still want to enter the fifth restricted area like moths to a flame. What exactly do they want to do?"
"Is there really any amazing treasure in the fifth restricted area?"
"There must be!" Feng Tianlin said: "Although the Demon Sect is sneaky, they are our allies of the Tang State after all. Their people came to the forbidden area of the Demon City. There is nothing to say."
"But the people in the Nightmare Garden are also crazy about rushing into the restricted area. They are simply impatient!"
Jiang Yuanfan asked: "Then do you know what treasures are inside?"
Feng Tianlin smiled proudly: "I don't know."
Shangguan Wulei slapped Feng Tianlin on the head: "I don't know... are you still so proud?"
Feng Tianlin scratched his head and said, "My sister has been in there!"
"Our First Martial Arts University Martial Arts Club has a pioneering group, and my sister is the captain of a team in the pioneering group."
"Half a year ago, she led her team into the fifth penalty area."
"But after that time, she was never willing to go to the fifth penalty area again."
"Why?" Chen Fan and others' curiosity was aroused by Feng Tianlin's words.
Feng Tianlin frowned and said: "First, the fifth restricted area is different from other restricted areas. There is spatial turbulence at the space gate, which is very scary. If you are not careful, you may be involved in the spatial turbulence, and you will eventually lose your soul;
"
"second……"
When he talked about the second one, Feng Tianlin's expression became a little weird.
He frowned and said: "My sister said that the place was extremely weird. As soon as people entered, they felt like they were being stared at by a ferocious beast from ancient times. The whole person was enveloped in an indescribable fear.
My heart feels like it’s being grabbed by a sharp claw!”
"..." Chen Fan's eyes widened.
How come the situation described by Feng Tianlin is similar to the ancient demon world and other four realms?
Shangguan Canglong blinked and said, "Is it an illusion?"
"If there is such a terrifying thing, how can Sister Xiao Xiao and the others return safely?"
"It can't be an illusion." Feng Tianlin said: "Everyone in my sister's team feels this way!"
"That feeling is much scarier than what I can say!"
"It's hard to describe in words..."
"Don't you know about my sister yet? There are so many families in this magical city, which family can find someone as strong and powerful as my sister?"
"Back then, Li Xinghe bullied me. In order to avenge me, she jumped over the wall and entered Li's house in the middle of the night. She dragged Li Xinghe out and beat him. Li Xinghe was beaten until he shit his pants!"
"When she was still in the second level, a group of level 15 monsters rushed down from the mountain. Others turned around and ran away. She grabbed a sword and rushed towards the monsters. In the end, she was covered with bruises and blood, and all those monsters were killed.
I’m so scared!”
"In one sentence, she doesn't know how to write the word 'fear'!"
"But when she talked about the fifth restricted area, the fear in her eyes lingered..."
"After coming back, she had nightmares for several days."
"Now when the fifth restricted area is mentioned, she becomes frightened!"
"Sister Xiao Xiao, what exactly did you encounter in the fifth restricted area?" Shangguan Canglong couldn't help but ask.
"That's the key!" Feng Tianlin slapped his thigh and said, "She didn't encounter anything!"
"After they entered the fifth restricted area, they only walked around the entrance of the restricted area. They did not encounter any monsters or beasts, and then they came out!"
Everyone: "..."
Is the fifth restricted area so scary?
A fearless person went in for a while, encountered nothing, was frightened, and then had nightmares for several days in a row?
Could it be that the fifth restricted area is connected to the legendary netherworld?
Feng Tianlin frowned and waved his hand and said, "I know, you don't believe me even if I say it."
"I've never been there, and I can't experience the weird fear she mentioned."
Chen Fan was thoughtful and asked: "Then what is it like inside the fifth restricted area?"
Feng Tianlin blinked and said: "It seems... it's an endless wasteland with very few vegetation. The ground is covered with huge cracks like spider webs, and every crack is bottomless..."
"..." Chen Fan's eyes flashed!
He turned his head slightly and looked at the blind man on the other side.
The blind man also raised his head and "looked" this way.
Chen Fan's heart became a little restless.
Why does the fifth restricted area mentioned by Feng Tianlin become more and more like a certain realm connected to the beast-controlling space?
Chen Fan couldn't wait to go to the fifth restricted area immediately to confirm.
but……
That place was extremely dangerous.
All forces are eyeing the colorful sacred stone inside.
It's too dangerous to run over now.
Although it is said that those above the eighth level cannot enter the fifth restricted area, there must be many eighth level guards outside the fifth restricted area.
No matter how hard it is, there are people in the ninth level!
Under Li Mu's eyes, the Nightmare Court dared to send someone here...
It seems that they won't give up until they get the five-color sacred stone!
no.
Just bear with it a little longer.
A fifth-level person was accidentally pinched to death when he was wandering around in a place like that. Where could he go to reason?
A group of eighth- and ninth-grade powerhouses brawling is no joke.
Just then...
Uncle Dong, the housekeeper, came over with a group of people: "Young Master Fan, they said they are from the Li family in the Demon City and want to ask you about the Sparkling Fireflies Swamp."
Someone from the Li family?
Do you really dare to come?
Came so fast!
Chen Fan tilted his head slightly and saw two middle-aged men, leading four people, standing behind Uncle Dong.
One of the middle-aged men glanced at Feng Tianlin and Shangguan Canglong before his eyes fell on Chen Fan.
He nodded slightly towards Chen Fan, put his hands behind his back, and said calmly: "My name is Li Sen, from the Li family in the Demon City."
"I came here because the young master of the Li family, Li Xinghe, died in the Sparkling Fireflies Swamp. I want to find you, Ye Hao, and Shen Taotao to cooperate in the investigation."
When he said this, he looked down at Chen Fan with very unfriendly eyes.
Feng Tianlin stood up and said coldly: "I also heard about Li Xinghe being killed."
"But you are not qualified to come here and point fingers."
"I want Chen Fan to cooperate with the investigation and let people from the City Lord's Mansion come!"
Li Sen didn't even look at Feng Tianlin, he just looked at Chen Fan silently.
Chen Fan rolled his eyelids: "What if I refuse to cooperate?"
As soon as these words came out, the people in the Li family suddenly changed their colors!
What an arrogant boy!
Facing the people of the Li family, he was so arrogant!
Li Sen frowned and said, "Chen Fan, I know that you are a disciple of Master Zhang Hai, and you are indeed qualified to be arrogant."
"We are not here to embarrass you."
"We just want to investigate clearly whether it was the people from the Nightmare Court or the Demon Cult who killed our Li family members."
"You and Ye Hao came from Donghai City. On the way, they were chased by the Nightmare Garden and passed through the Sparkling Fireflies Swamp."
"And the time when you passed through the Sparkling Fireflies Swamp happened to be the time when our Li family members were killed."
"It's not offensive for us to ask you to cooperate with the investigation, right?"
"Isn't that offensive?" Chen Fan sneered: "You brought a large group of people and barged into my house in a swaggering and vicious manner, and then asked me to cooperate with your investigation. Isn't that considered offensive?"
Li Sen was about to speak...
From behind, a cold snort came: "Okay, very good!"
"It seems that I, Zhang Hai, am really old..."
"You're so old that a bunch of rubbish would dare to come here to bully my apprentice, right?"
Everyone turned around.
Then he saw Zhang Hai, with a gloomy face, and his uncle walking slowly.
"Master!"
Chen Fan immediately stood up and ran to Zhang Hai.
Zhang Hai gently patted the back of Chen Fan's hand, then looked at Li Sen and said, "Today I want to see how brave your Li family is to dare to touch my disciple Zhang Hai!"
The kind-hearted Zhang Hai, when angry, is like King Kong subduing the devil!
Li Sen and other people had cold sweat dripping from their foreheads, and everyone lowered their heads to say hello.
Li Sen felt a cold sweat and said: "Mr. Zhang, please don't misunderstand..."
"We just found out that Chen Fan and the others passed through the Shining Fireflies Swamp. They might know some information, so we wanted to ask about it."
"We... really have no other intentions."
Zhang Hai sat down on the chair where Feng Tianlin had sat, and said coldly: "Li Xuan's grandson is dead. Why should he go to the Court of Nightmares to fight for his life? Why do he come to my apprentice?"
"Do you suspect that my apprentice killed his grandson?"
"No, no!" Li Sen waved his hands and said, "Actually... it was mainly because we found that people from the Demon Sect rescued a group of people, so we suspected that the people who killed Li Xinghe were from the Demon Sect..."
Zhang Hai sneered: "Then you go find the Demon Sect."
Li Sen wiped his sweat again: "We... just want to investigate first to determine whether it is the Nightmare Court or the Demon Cult... I'm really sorry for... disturbing you!"
With that said, Li Sen saluted and prepared to leave.
Sudden……
A vortex appeared in the void.
Li Mu stepped out of the whirlpool.
"Hey, is it so lively?"
A group of people from the Li family: "..."
What's going on?
Why is Master Li Mu here?
Although everyone knows that Li Mu is based in the Magic City.
But even for the old man of the Li family, it has not been easy to meet Li Mu for so many years!
What is this...
Then Li Mu took out a black bracelet and handed it to Chen Fan: "Didn't I say I would give you a pair of armor before? Take it."
"..." Li Sen and others were completely stunned.
Master Li Mu personally gave the armor to Chen Fan?
Even Zhang Hai himself doesn't have such a big face!
"This... is a battle armor?"
Chen Fan took the black bracelet and put it on his right wrist.
Li Mu made a light stroke with his finger...
"Pfft!"
A drop of blood flew up from Chen Fan's wrist and escaped into the black bracelet.
The black bracelet flickered with a faint light, and soon returned to its normal state, becoming simple and unpretentious.
At this moment, Chen Fan felt that he had a special connection with the bracelet!
He subconsciously put his mental power into the black bracelet.
"call!"
The black bracelet turned into countless fragments.
Countless fragments the size of fingernails quickly circled around Chen Fan, swelled up in the wind, turned into pieces of armor, and attached to Chen Fan's body!
"this……"
Chen Fan's eyes widened.
Magic weapon level armor!
The level of this armor is probably not much worse than the six magic weapons I handed over back then!
"How's it going? Are you satisfied?"
Li Mu put his hands behind his back and looked at Chen Fan with a smile.
Chen Fan nodded: "It fits very well, as if it was tailor-made for me... I can't feel the weight at all, but I can feel a terrifying power flowing rapidly inside the armor!"
The orange cat came over, snorted and said: "It's so scary!"
"The formations on this armor haven't even been formed yet!"
"I'm just fooling an ignorant guy like you."
Li Mu was a little embarrassed. He glanced at the blind man and said, "I'm not good at the battle armor's formations and runes. You should do it yourself, senior, right?"
"..." Li Sen and the other Li family members were shocked again.
Mud, what is going on...
This old blind man who has been sitting at the table teasing slimes, even Mr. Li Mu wants to call him senior?
In terms of seniority, Li Mu and Zhang Hai are of the same generation.
Could it be that this blind man is a generation older than Zhang Hai?
I have never heard of any family or force in the Tang Kingdom that has such a blind senior?
Li Sen was sweating profusely.
A gust of wind blew, and everyone in the Li family shivered.
