In a corner of the mountain forest, Chen Xinzhu and Gao Xiaoguo stood opposite each other.
"Are you ready?"
"certainly."
Gao Xiaoguo responded with a slight nod, a smile on his face.
Three days have passed since entering the ruins.
Chen Xinzhu and Gao Xiaoguo teamed up to sweep all the way and harvested many elixirs from heaven and earth.
During this process, there were also some blind humans and monsters who came to provoke them. Chen Xinzhu showed no mercy with his sword and killed many of them.
These three days have been a fruitful one.
Just the Taoist Yuanling alone was enough to make up twenty of them.
Twenty.
According to the information contained in Yuanling, once someone refines ten Yuanlings, they will be transferred to the second level of the ruins.
Speaking of which, Chen Xinzhu and the others did not see any Grandmaster Demon King along the way. They must have entered the second level of the ruins.
Now, Chen Xinzhu and Gao Xiaoguo have each refined nine souls. As long as they refine one more, they can enter the second level of the ruins.
"whee."
With a smile on his face, Gao Xiaoguo gently held Chen Xinzhu's right hand.
Chen Xinzhu's face stiffened and he quickly relaxed.
After all, I was mentally prepared.
In fact, this was a countermeasure they had discussed before.
The main thing is to try and see if it can be moved to the same place.
Although they didn't know whether it would be successful, they still planned to give it a try.
In this place, there are masters and demon kings.
If the two of them join forces, the security will be higher.
Looking at each other in tacit understanding, the two began to refine the tenth spirit at the same time.
Soon, a faint spiritual light flickered, and the tenth Yuan Spirit was refined.
The air twisted suddenly.
There was no one left in the place.
…
For a moment, the world seemed to be spinning.
After coming back to his senses, Chen Xinzhu quickly glanced in all directions.
The light is a little dim, this is a closed corridor.
There are stone walls all around.
A few meters away, two oil lamps hung on the walls on both sides of the corridor, which were the only sources of light.
but.
No tall fruit is visible.
Obviously, the hand-holding plan failed.
They were still moved to different places.
Chen Xinzhu didn't think much, gently pulled out the White Frost Sword, raised his feet and walked towards the end of the corridor.
After walking several hundred meters and passing nearly ten oil lamps, Chen Xinzhu finally discovered something different.
On the wall on the right, there is a stone door.
A stone door with no door but a frame.
Looking around, there is a small side hall behind the stone gate.
About a hundred square meters.
but.
The most eye-catching thing is the huge treasure box in the middle of the side hall.
"It's like a trap in a game."
Chen Xinzhu thought for a while, ignored it, and continued walking forward.
However, a few hundred meters later, the exact same side hall appeared again.
Chen Xinzhu still ignored it and continued to move forward.
The third side hall.
The fourth side hall.
Until the fifth identical side hall appeared, Chen Xinzhu finally stopped.
He can also see that in this second level of secret realm, it is probably necessary to have access to these side halls.
You know, he had walked nearly five miles in the corridor, but except for the side hall, he didn't see anything else.
Having made up his mind, Chen Xinzhu no longer hesitated.
When he reached the stone gate, he didn't go in.
He slowly raised his left hand and grasped the treasure box in the side hall.
In an instant, a large spiritual hand appeared out of thin air in the side hall and quickly grabbed the treasure chest.
Bang!
The moment he approached the treasure chest, the spiritual energy dissipated instantly.
"Forbidden Spirit Formation?"
Slowly putting down his left hand, Chen Xinzhu's expression did not change at all.
He knew it wasn't that simple.
Without any further hesitation, Chen Xinzhu stepped into the stone door.
I was alert, but nothing happened.
Chen Xinzhu was not careless. He remained vigilant and slowly walked to the treasure chest.
Still nothing happened.
"It seems that the key is still this treasure box."
Chen Xinzhu gathered all his concentration and quickly swung the White Frost Sword.
Click.
The lid of the treasure chest was lifted.
At this moment, Chen Xinzhu's powerful soul sensed a strange fluctuation.
Boom!
The stone gate was blocked instantly.
At the same time, an ice blue sword energy shot out.
Boom!
The stone wall blocking the stone door was slashed by the sword energy, making a loud noise.
However, it was of no use.
Even though he was struck by Chen Xinzhu's sharp sword energy, there was still no trace left on the stone wall.
Don't wait for Chen Xinzhu to think too much.
A somewhat illusory shadow suddenly appeared next to the treasure chest.
"This is……"
The phantom is three meters tall, and its outline looks like a huge human figure.
But on his forehead, there was a huge horn that was nearly thirty centimeters long.
In less than two seconds, the illusory shadow turned into reality.
The blazing flames burned, and the one-horned figure suddenly opened his eyes.
They were a pair of burning yellow eyes, filled with a violent aura.
"roar!"
With a deafening roar, the unicorn figure rushed towards Chen Xinzhu.
Seeing that the aura of this unicorn figure was similar to his own, Chen Xinzhu was not afraid at all.
The hoarfrost sword swung and faced the one-horned figure.
Boom!
After receiving a punch from the front, Chen Xinzhu was beaten and took three steps back.
"What a powerful force."
Chen Xinzhu was a little surprised.
Judging from the aura, this unicorn figure should also be at the innate level, and it is only the beginning of the innate level.
But this power.
It has obviously reached its innate limit.
In terms of strength alone, among the many innately powerful people Chen Xinzhu had encountered, except for Gao Xiaoguo, no one could compare to this one-horned figure.
Even he can't.
Ping ping ping pong!
Chen Xinzhu no longer picks up the fight hard, but uses the technique of offloading force.
Soon, twenty moves passed.
Looking at the one-horned figure in front of him who was constantly attacking, Chen Xinzhu's eyes were full of admiration.
"very nice.
No matter in terms of strength, speed, or even combat experience, they are all outstanding."
It’s a pity…”
Chen Xinzhu moved his wrist slightly, and the white frost sword drew a beautiful arc.
The unicorn figure paused, shattered and dissipated in an instant.
"It's a pity...that he has no consciousness."
With a swing of the white frost sword, Chen Xinzhu looked at the place where the one-horned figure disappeared and sighed softly.
Empty strength, no mind.
This kind of opponent is no threat at all.
…
Chen Xinzhu was not careless and was still alert to his surroundings.
but.
Boom!!
The blocked stone door slowly opened, it seemed like it was over?
After looking at the stone door, Chen Xinzhu walked towards the treasure chest.
Although the previous battle was fierce, the treasure chest was not damaged at all.
It seems to be protected by the forbidden spirit formation.
"This is……"
Chen Xinzhu was a little surprised when he saw the contents of the treasure box.
"……What?"
There is only one thing in the huge treasure chest.
A white box that looks like jade.
but.
Under the jade box, there is a piece of white paper.
Wielding the white frost sword, he picked out the hundred jade box.
Set it aside for now.
The white frost sword moved again, and the white paper came to the front.
After a quick glance at the text above, Chen Xinzhu breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it was an ancient seal script that was still in use two hundred years ago.
He knows it.
The next moment, Chen Xinzhu looked towards the beginning.
