This green-haired demon tiger is obviously afraid of some powerful existence hidden in the mountain range where the two stone statues are located.
To make this demon tiger so scared, how powerful must the monster in the mountains ahead be?
Ding Chun and the others had just breathed a sigh of relief. When they saw the green-haired demon tiger slowly disappearing into the forest, they felt a bitter feeling as if they had just emerged from the tiger's mouth and entered the dragon pond again.
For a moment, the three people and the demon looked at each other, and no one dared to take a step towards the two stone statues that they had been eager to reach before.
Fortunately, the four of them did not move immediately. A new round of conflict broke out at the foot of the two stone statues in front of them, at the entrance to the mountain range.
"This opportunity has been taken over by the five major sects of our Cangyuan Realm. No matter which higher realm you come from, you are not allowed to compete with us!"
A slender young man in a purple shirt spoke arrogantly to dozens of monks on the other side.
Around and behind the purple-shirted young man, there were almost fifty geniuses from the Cangyuan Realm, from five super sects. The geniuses from the Dongxuan Sect, including Lu Che, all landed safely on Dusky Star.
Having well-organized personnel is also a proof of strength.
However, the dozens of monks on the other side looked equally difficult to mess with.
The leading male cultivator who looked senile before his time sneered: "Are you from the Cangyuan Realm great? This time, more than a dozen higher realms jointly explored the secrets. The geniuses sent by our Miaoxu Realm are not weaker than you. We had made an appointment before.
There must be no conflict between allies, and it seems that your Cangyuan Realm exploration team wants to violate the agreement."
"Oh, it turns out to be Niubi, the stinky Taoist priest of Miaoxu Realm. No wonder they are all so old and arrogant in their twenties and thirties." The young man in purple shirt said in a very mocking tone, completely ignoring the Taoist geniuses in Miaoxu Realm, "I don't usually have any
I don’t want to hear you guys from the Miaoxu Realm boasting about themselves, today I’m here to ask you about your superb Taoist skills from the Miaoxu Realm!”
As soon as this statement came out, the atmosphere at the scene became tense.
Suddenly, a monk who looked to be in his thirties shouted loudly: "Stop arguing! Cangyuan Realm and Miaoxu Realm are allies, there is no need to fight here and lose both sides, not to mention there are other realms to explore.
The team entered the mountain earlier than us, do you really want to fight here just for the sake of your own morale?"
This person spoke loudly, and the young geniuses present would have been dissatisfied, but they all had to admit that what he said was very reasonable.
Judging from the traces of fighting around the two stone statues and the bloody corpses of the monks, there must have been many brutal fights before. These monks who had not yet entered the mountain to explore the secrets perished here in vain and died with their eyes open.
"Hmph, no one can compete with our Five Cangyuan Sects anyway!"
The young man in purple shirt was not willing to lower his attitude at all. He flew into the mountain with arrogance and followed the stone steps in front of the two stone statues all the way deep. A group of monks from the Cangyuan Realm followed closely behind.
The monk from the Miaoxu Realm on the other side did not say a word, stepped onto the stone steps as fast as the wind, and quickly disappeared from the sight of Ding Chun and the four men who were watching in secret.
"Let's go into the mountain quickly and let those geniuses who don't know how to live or die explore the road ahead and act as scapegoats." Ding Chun's lips curved sinisterly, and he waved his hand to let Leng Xian, Xiaoqian and Xuemu Mandrill follow him.
…
About half a day later.
Chen Xuan and Ji Tingsha appeared in the vastest open space in Leize Forest.
In front of them were two magnificent stone statues holding the sky, as well as the only mysterious mountain range in the forest.
When Chen Xuan and Ji Tingsha came to the stone statue, they were both shocked by the ingenuity of the stone statue.
The two stone statues look like Pangu giants that were born in the chaos of the prehistoric times. They stand opposite each other, with their bodies becoming the ridge and their heads becoming the highest peak of the mountain range.
What's even more magical is that there is a very wide waterfall flowing down between the two stone statues, filled with water vapor, and full of rich water aura everywhere.
A monk with a water-attributed physique or skill would practice here for ten days and a half, which would definitely be worth several years of practice in the outside world.
But neither Chen Xuan nor Ji Tingsha would covet the aura of waterfalls. At a glance, they saw the stone steps carved by someone on the soles of the two stone statues.
The soles of the stone statue's feet are also very huge. Standing in front of one of the toes, Chen Xuan and Ji Tingsha looked like little ants, very small.
The corpses and the smell of blood on the ground stopped Chen Xuan temporarily.
"These people seem to have not only killed each other, but the wounds on some of the corpses look like they were damaged by some powerful monsters." Ji Tingsha glanced at them and found them very shocking.
Those forces in the big world only allow geniuses in the creation realm to enter the ancient world, which is really a mistake.
No matter what, you have to send a few stars to lead the team.
Of course, this is just Ji Tingsha's idea. No one knows whether those big world forces secretly sent star realm monks to follow the team.
"Want to go up?"
Ji Tingsha saw that Chen Xuan's left eye was shining with a pale golden light, and he seemed to be scanning something with his unique pupil technique. She couldn't help but be a little curious.
"I'm checking what materials these two stone statues are made of. Maybe there are some good treasures hidden inside the stone statues."
Chen Xuan said this, but after scanning around, he didn't find anything unusual.
The two stone statues were cast from a top-grade strange stone. This strange stone is indeed an excellent weapon refining material, but what Chen Xuan is looking for is a metallic material because he wants Yang Zhu to help him recast the Xuanyuan Sword with various top-quality materials.
, and what Yang Zhu requires is materials with properties of gold and iron.
After closing his eyes, Chen Xuan took out the Xuanyuan Sword and used his extreme sword intent to slash at the toes of the stone statue. Only a shallow mark was left, and a few stone chips fell off.
"If you chop like this, it will only take you a year and a month to collect a strange stone. Let's forget it." Ji Tingsha was speechless. Why does this guy Chen Xuan want everything?
Chen Xuan tried to chop it a few more times and put some of the fallen gravel into a storage bag, which might be used later.
Just as Chen Xuan was about to walk up the stone steps into the mountain, he heard the sound of magical weapons chopping stone statues from the other side.
Chen Xuan glanced at Ji Tingsha and motioned for Ji Tingsha to go over and take a look.
The two of them gathered their breath and turned to the source of the sound. They saw monks wearing uniform sect uniforms manipulating magic weapons and trying hard to hit the ten toes of one of the stone statues.
These toes have been bumped or cut into pits and become very unsightly.
This group of monks did not seem to be collecting strange stones, they wanted to see if there were any treasures hidden in the toes of the stones.
"It's strange. My treasure-hunting beast obviously sensed that there is a treasure hidden in the toes of the stone statue. Why can't I find it?" A girl in yellow clothes held a small hamster-like beast in her hand and kept moving back and forth between the ten toes.
Exploration.
Chen Xuan and Ji Tingsha looked at each other and finally understood what this group of monks were doing.
It turns out that people have a spirit beast that can detect hidden treasures.
Looking at the costumes of this group of monks, they all have the symbols of the four divine beasts: blue dragon, white tiger, red bird, and Xuanwu. Chen Xuan guessed that they were probably from a certain sect in the world of beast control.
Several of the monks, under the command of the girl in yellow, transformed into spiritual beasts that looked like pangolins, and very flexibly penetrated into the stone statue to explore, and then quickly exited.
