Zi Chen appeared on a high platform, which looked like a martial arts arena, with a stranger standing opposite him.
He was holding an incense candle in his hand, which was currently lit.
The smoke curls up and floats in the air, condensing and not dissipating, like some special mysterious symbol.
After seeing Zi Chen, the other party's face immediately showed a touch of pride, "Haha, Zi Chen, you finally fell into my hands, just wait to die."
Zi Chen looked at the strange man and said calmly: "Do you and I have any grudges?"
In my heart, I was thinking about why I was forcibly brought here.
Could it be the reason for lighting the candle?
So what is gambling on life?
"My name is Mu Cheng."
There was a cold light in the other party's eyes, and he smiled ferociously at Zi Chen, "I chose to bet on my life, and you will choose the next battlefield."
"I don't even know what the rules are."
The other party came from the Five Elements Family, but Zi Chen was a little surprised that the other party would take action at this time.
"You don't need to know the rules, just choose a battlefield." The other party obviously didn't want to explain.
Zi Chen said: "I don't know how to choose the rules, and I don't have any fighting power now, just like an ordinary person, how can I bet my life with you? This is not fair!"
Mu Cheng laughed loudly when he heard the sound, "Who made you choose to come in last? It's your own fault. It's also God's destiny. You must die!"
"The rules are very simple. The battlefield is in these rooms. You just need to choose a room at will. When the two of us enter the room at the same time, only one person can come out alive. This is a gamble! Two people enter and one person comes out!"
Zi Chen looked around and realized that there were rooms one after another. According to visual inspection, there were a total of fifteen.
The fifteen rooms look the same from the outside. The only difference is that they have very special symbols on them.
"Even if there is enmity between you and me, how can you bet your life with me without my consent?"
Zi Chen frowned, looking very puzzled.
"These are the rules, or rules, of this place. As long as you come here, you must abide by the rules, whether you want to or not."
Mu Cheng smiled proudly and said: "So, I will force you to join the game at the cost of an incense candle."
Zi Chen looked at the burning incense candle in the other person's hand, "Can anyone who gets the incense candle bet on others' lives?"
"Yes and no."
Mucheng said: "First of all, it requires a complete incense candle, and there are some restrictions on life gambling. It may be a limit on the number of people, or it may be something else."
"What are the benefits of gambling on life?" Zi Chen asked again.
Mu Cheng was stunned, "Since it's a gamble on life, what's the benefit? If you die, that's the biggest benefit to me."
Zi Chen looked at Mu Cheng with an idiotic expression, "What kind of virtue do you have? I don't know yet? If there is no benefit, will you come and gamble your life with me? What's more, this place is special. I don't know what opportunities there are. You idiots
People who can't afford to benefit early will come to me first to gamble their lives?"
The way Mucheng looked at Zi Chen was obviously different.
This fifth Holy Lord is indeed no ordinary person.
"As long as you win three people in the bet, you can restore your cultivation level." Mucheng laughed, "Do you think this is a good deal?"
Zi Chen's face changed slightly, his cultivation was completely gone, they looked like ordinary people.
But if among ordinary people, there is one being who has restored his cultivation, wouldn't it be possible to kill everyone?
He looked at Mucheng, "So, I am the third one?"
If he didn't have absolute confidence, he would definitely not fight a life and death duel with himself.
Zi Chen looked around, there was no audience here, just the two of them.
Zi Chen currently knows nothing about this place, so he urgently needs to learn some rules from Mucheng.
It seems that sometimes coming in late is not necessarily a good thing.
"Are you scared?" Mu Cheng asked without answering.
Zi Chen continued to ask, "Since you have recovered part of your strength, why don't you come to me directly, but choose to bet your life with me? After all, I don't have any strength at all now."
"It seems that you really know nothing about this place. There are many rooms here. How can I find you? Besides, why should I look for you? Wouldn't it be easier to kill you here?"
Mu Cheng was a little impatient, "You don't have much time, make your choice quickly."
"I have one last question. Apart from gambling my life, is there no other way to regain my strength?"
Mu Cheng looked at Zi Chen and did not answer immediately.
His expression was hesitant, as if he was considering whether to answer this question or not.
Zi Chen did not rush, but waited patiently.
After a moment, Mu Chengcai said: "There are two other ways. One is to leave here with the tribute, and the other is to master the complete divine curse. The former does not know where to go, and the divine curse mentioned by the latter has never been discovered by anyone.
.”
Hearing this, Zi Chen's heart moved.
Could it be those five words on the portrait?
Spells combined with seals?
Mu Cheng seemed very impatient and urged Zi Chen again, and then answered several questions from Zi Chen.
It can be said that he knows everything he knows.
"Make a choice quickly. There is no point in procrastinating blindly."
Mu Cheng urged again.
Zi Chen smiled faintly and said: "It seems that your real intention is to prevent me from making a choice. I don't know whether you want to randomly enter a room after giving up the choice, or whether you want to decide life and death directly here?"
"I do not know what you're talking about."
Mu Cheng had a puzzled look on his face, but the light flashing in his eyes showed how he could possibly deceive Zi Chen.
"I guess it's the latter, because you have awakened your strength, but I have not."
Zi Chen smiled and said, "I have long advised you not to play tricks with me. You are all very thoughtful, but your IQ is really lacking."
While speaking, Zi Chen walked towards the side room without hesitation.
There is a very special symbol on it.
As for this symbol, Zi Chen has entered many rooms, but has only encountered it once.
It was the room where he had just been injured and nearly killed.
If what he expected was true, entering this room would mean death.
This is the choice Zi Chen made.
"you……"
Mu Cheng's expression changed, and he didn't expect Zi Chen to actually make a choice.
The moment Zi Chen opened the door, he and Mucheng disappeared from where they were.
Entered the room directly.
The room was dark and cold.
The whole body is feeling cold, especially the neck and other vital parts of the human body, and the senses are more intense.
It's like someone holding a knife to his neck, and the knife will fall at any time.
It's like a poisonous snake, spitting out its core in the dark, and it can kill you at any time.
Zi Chen came in once before, in the same dark environment. He didn't see anything and was directly injured.
This time he made such a choice again.
"Gamble!"
The sense of crisis was getting heavier and heavier. Zi Chen also gritted his teeth, quickly formed seals with his hands, and whispered in a low voice: "The gods return to their throne!"
Like some kind of spell.
There were inexplicable ripples all over his body, and there seemed to be sounds of fighting and some kind of strange and eerie sound all around.
These sounds were right next to her ears, but they seemed far away from Zi Chen.
I don’t know how long it took, but the light dispersed the darkness.
Zi Chen saw Mu Cheng, who had fallen to the ground, lifeless.
Zi Chen stepped forward to check his breathing and found that he was obviously dead.
He didn't know if the fight just now was caused by the other party. Anyway, Zi Chen survived this bet.
He rummaged around on the other person's body and found only half a stick of incense, but nothing else.
"how so?"
Just when Zi Chen didn't understand why, a force suddenly came out of his dantian.
There are also signs of recovery in mental strength.
In the end, his cultivation level recovered by about one-third.
"Bet on life and win!"
There was a sound, and then there was a force that forcibly took Zi Chen away.
****
****
Zi Chen had just experienced a crisis, and no one had asked him carefully yet.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, Zi Chen disappeared out of thin air.
Everyone is anxious.
Zilan, who was originally the most anxious, seemed to be less anxious now.
"I thought I heard something just now. The master was taken away by this sound. It seemed like someone was gambling on his life."
Zi Lan said, but others did not hear any sound.
Next, they didn't dare to move around at will and could only wait where they were.
"What if Zi Chen can't come out?"
It was Li Su, who was obviously worried about Zi Chen, not Crow Zui.
"Will not."
This is Zi Lan, and her reaction is obviously different from the extremely nervous Zi Chen's reaction before.
Suddenly, there was a flash of light and Zi Chen appeared.
At this moment, the aura of spiritual power surged around him, and several people had surprises on their faces, "Zi Chen, has your cultivation level recovered?"
"Only about a third has been recovered."
Then Zi Chen told what happened.
Everyone looked shocked.
Zi Chen finally said: "According to the doors I have seen, there are currently fifteen types. According to certain symbols, I estimate that eleven of them should represent the eleven power attributes in the world. You can imagine them as
The eleven hidden clans."
"Aren't there twelve tribes in the hidden world?" Xingdian asked.
"That's right, the twelve tribes, but I didn't see the symbol of thunder." Zi Chen said: "From the beginning, people from the thunder tribe were unable to enter it, and there was no luck coming. Perhaps this is the reason. The rest
There are four, I guess one is the way of swordsmanship, one should be the power of Buddhism, and the third represents death, which is also the door I was injured when I entered it before."
"I don't know the last one, but it may correspond to life, vitality, or survival."
Next, Zi Chen focused on the symbol of the door of death and the seal he saw earlier, which was to prevent someone from being gambled and having an accident.
Finally, Zi Chen said: "You can try to look at the doors of each room to see if you can find the symbols."
Everyone started trying, but not everyone could see the symbol on the door.
Some people even tried to open the door several times but could not see the symbol.
Later, Zi Chen came to the conclusion that except for him and Zi Lan, others could only see a specific symbol.
This symbol may mean that you can gain some kind of power.
"The last stick of incense, without tribute, you will die."
The voice from before sounded again.
This is considered an ultimatum.
Everyone's lives seem to have entered a countdown.
In the past, Zi Chen was exploring and made discoveries, but not many, and could not take care of everyone at the moment.
"Enter the symbols you can see."
Now that things have come to this, it is clear that there is no way to be timid.
Others entered the symbols they could see one after another. Some people made discoveries, while others still found nothing.
"Keep looking, there are many more doors here."
Zi Chen, on the other hand, was heading towards a door of death, where he wanted to test the effect of the divine curse.
