Xu Tian couldn't help but smile bitterly. If he had known that he was such a greedy and difficult vampire, he would not have provoked him even if he was beaten to death!
The cage and the prison were integrated into one. Lu Chen spent a long time without taking anything off. He put away the bunch of keys in a depressed manner, temporarily sent many war puppets into the Danwang Cave to rest and recover, and took Xu Tian to the outside of the prison.
.
I saw many other cages in the prison, but the quality was far inferior to the Demon Cage. Most of the skeletons of creatures inside had been turned into bone powder under the erosion of time. I searched two of them but found nothing, so I simply stopped.
Went to find it.
Almost every building seen along the way had huge claw marks and traces of swords, as if there had been an earth-shattering battle here a long time ago.
"The master of this palace once said that this city of black ice should be a suspended war fortress of some ancient power, but it seems that the owner of the fortress was defeated in the end." Xu Tian came over as if to please, and explained with a low eyebrow.
Lu Chen said curiously: "Since the ancestor of the Mysterious Temple came down from the upper world, can't he conquer this place with his ability?"
Xu Tian smiled bitterly and said: "It is said that when the powerful man was defeated, he burned his soul and everything, and set an ice curse on this war fortress area. Anyone over thirty years old and from a hostile ethnic group would try to enter.
, those with low strength were directly bombarded by the guardian mechanism.
Even if someone with high strength breaks in by force, they will be contaminated by the terrible black ice curse. Once contaminated by it, the soul will gradually be frozen, and eventually become a living dead whose soul is frozen forever!"
"Xuanbing Curse, Xuanbing Beast Emperor Sword..."
Lu Chen suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind as he listened. Both of them had Xuan Bing. Could there be some connection between them?
However, he didn't say anything. The sword wings behind his back flickered and flew out as fast as lightning. The moment he came out of the prison, he couldn't help but be shocked by the scene in front of him.
Looking around, one can see a huge group of dilapidated buildings stretching up and down, with no edges visible at all. There are huge columns rising straight into the sky at regular intervals, many of which have been broken into two parts.
In order to see more clearly, Lu Chen flew high into the sky. Wherever he could see, there was still no limit, but he could already vaguely see the figures of many practitioners.
While he was watching, the ball at the top of the column suddenly burst into bright blue light, and a strong murderous intent instantly locked onto Lu Chen. Without thinking, he directly activated the power of space to teleport to the ground.
Whoosh!
The blue light penetrated the place where he had just stayed, and the void along the way was frozen to pieces. If he had been slower at all, he would have been blown to pieces by the terrifying energy.
Seeing Lu Chen looking at him with an unkind expression, Xu Tian was frightened and said quickly: "The master is not a villain intentionally hiding it. Those were the war sentry towers of Xuanbing City. Once anyone enters the air, they will be killed."
Triggering its attack is a public matter. Do you think, if this were not the case, after so many years, Xuanbing City, no matter how big it is, would probably have been completely explored!"
Lu Chen raised his eyebrows slightly and took out the Xuanbing City jade slip he bought earlier. Sure enough, there was something mentioned in it. He didn't pay attention to it before, so he made this mistake.
"Which direction should we head now?"
Xu Tian quickly stretched out his left arm, and with his astonished look on his face, he used the nails of his right hand to break open the flesh and blood. He took out a jade slip close to the bone, wiped off the blood on it, and handed it to him in awe.
"Master, you can see your approximate location from this jade slip on the map. Generally speaking, the closer you are to the center of the city, the greater the benefits you will get, but the risks that come with it will also increase exponentially. Xuan Temple
Since its establishment, we have only explored the edge of the inner city, and anyone who continues to get closer will be killed without exception."
Lu Chen put his soul into the jade slip and found a three-dimensional map inside, describing the outline of Xuanbing City. Nearly 70% of the area inside was dark, and the remaining part was marked with many messages. To the north of the map,
, there is a shining bright spot between the inner city and the outer city. According to the mark on the jade slip, it should be his location.
"Those bright areas are areas that have been explored by major forces over the years. They are relatively safe, but all the valuable things inside have been looted." Xu Tian also completely accepted his fate and told everything he knew.
came out.
Lu Chen said casually: "With your strength, how far can you explore?"
"If there is a sacred object in hand, we should be able to advance about one-third of the distance towards the inner city. Going back will be a little difficult." As Xu Tian spoke, he looked at Lu Chen intentionally or unintentionally.
Lu Chen couldn't help but laugh. Except for the instruments of torture in the Demon's Prison and the Jade Slip of the Dove Magpie Mysterious Skill, all the rest were returned to him. Xu Tian was so happy that he almost stopped laughing.
The treasure bag that was confiscated before contained almost 90% of his wealth. Now that it was lost and recovered, how could he not be overjoyed?
"Take this elixir and explore within the scope of your ability. Whatever you find must be handed over to me truthfully. If there is anything you like, I will exchange it for you with an elixir of equal value or Yun Dao Jade."
Lu Chen said and threw a pill bottle casually.
Xu Tian took the elixir bottle and smiled disapprovingly in his heart. Although he had dedicated his soul to branding, he would definitely not dare to do things like rebellion and murder that would trigger the backlash of his soul, but he still had no intention of hiding the things he found or handing them over to others.
problematic.
Looking at the corners of his mouth that turned up inadvertently, Lu Chen couldn't guess what he was thinking. He just smiled faintly, and the power of space quietly bloomed, and he disappeared without a trace.
"This guy is strong, but his brain is a little hard to use." Xu Tian opened the elixir bottle with a curse, but when he looked inside, he was completely stunned!
"Rejuvenation Pill!"
It turned out to be the Rejuvenation Pill that had just been auctioned for a sky-high price!
At that time, he was in the box of Tianzi No. 5. If it weren't for Sheng Yiyi, the guardian family of the mainland, he would have spent all his money to get one. With it, not only can he quickly heal all kinds of serious injuries, but also after entering the realm of creation.
, and can extend your life for hundreds of years.
Does anyone know how to live a long life?
This pill is completely worth all his property, and the owner whom he regards as a fool is as casual as throwing away an insignificant jelly bean. How much will he have?
Could it be that he is the mysterious auctioneer at the auction?
In this case, does he still have the Eight Treasures Glazed Pill or other ancient pills in his hand?
Could it be that he is the inheritor of an ancient alchemist family?
…
A series of question marks emerged in his heart, and Xu Tian's mentality also underwent earth-shaking changes.
There are many earth-opening realm holy objects in the city of Xuanbing, or even higher-level divine objects, but they don’t have enough strength to display their power, not to mention the improvement and growth of their own cultivation.
Help is extremely limited.
Not to mention anything else, even if he gets an incredible divine item, it won't give him another life. If he had to choose, he would rather exchange it for an Eight Treasure Glazed Pill!
"Maybe it's not a bad thing to recognize the master of such an alchemy family..." Xu Tian thought of this, and the resistance in his heart also faded a lot, and he chose a direction to start exploring.
The guard tower sealed the sky and relied solely on the ground for advancement. It was simply wishful thinking to explore the Black Ice City within a month. People who poured into the ruins all understood this truth. After roughly identifying the direction, they all rushed towards
Unexplored areas.
Lu Chen used the power of space to continuously change his figure in the void. Whenever the sentry tower was about to lock onto him, he would teleport back to the ground in time to avoid him. After trying several times in succession, he made sure that there was no danger, and then he started to speed up.
Along the way, I saw those practitioners who were marching on the ground in an orderly manner. Their progress was not easy. At some point, a group of puppets above the Yun Dao realm would rush out from the huge hall that was almost in ruins.
These puppets come from all races, but judging from their dull eyes and strong corpse smell, even if their bodies are damaged, they can recover at an astonishing speed, even faster than the Diamond Battle Puppet.
Be amazing.
Lu Chen frowned slightly and teleported directly behind a Yundao first-level tiger puppet. With lightning speed, he enveloped it into the Tiangang Soul Suppressing Net. Before other puppets could pounce on him, he teleported away again.
.
After finding a safe and secluded place, Lu Chen summoned the Diamond War Puppet to protect him, while he patiently observed the tiger puppet. The refining method was exactly the same as that of the Holy Puppet Sect.
"The method of refining the puppets of the Holy Puppet Sect really comes from the City of Black Ice!"
Lu Chen suppressed the emotion in his heart and summoned a small heroic battle flag. Unexpectedly, not only did the heroic battle flag not work, it actually stimulated it to become ferocious. Its eyes were scarlet and it was about to rush towards him, but it just saved it.
Halfway through, it fell into the dust.
After catching several puppet monsters one after another, he had to give up the idea of using the heroic battle flag to take them for his own use.
At this moment, there was a burst of shocking cheers from outside. Lu Chen looked outside and saw that after the puppet monsters were jointly killed, many treasures with powerful auras fell out of their stomachs.
"The ultimate Taoist instrument!"
"Open Heaven First Realm Holy Object!"
…
The group of practitioners were greatly surprised. In order to compete for these magic weapons and sacred objects, a bloody internal strife broke out. Lu Chen had no intention of showing up to snatch them. At this moment, his family had a huge business, so how could he put such a small amount of money in it?
In my eyes, the only way to break into the depths of the ruins as quickly as possible is to do it.
Lu Chen kept using the power of space to rush forward. Not only did he advance very fast, but he also became more and more skillful in controlling the power of space. In less than half a day, he passed through the siege of numerous puppets and headed towards the center of the ruins.
Advance about one-tenth of the distance.
But this speed soon came to an abrupt end!
The tens of thousands of miles of buildings in front of him were all places that had not been marked on the jade slips on the map. The air was still filled with blue mist. With his strength, he could only detect a distance of a few hundred meters.
