It’s too difficult to cultivate monsters, so I’ll just farm monsters.

Chapter 89: Going deep into the Immortal Dynasty, the ancient city in the mountains

The meeting ended with a simple exchange.

Jiang Xun learned that there were spiritual beasts in the cave that Zhu Weiyang and his party were exploring.

To be precise, there was.

And there are two.

Both spirit beasts had turned into bones, leaving behind two inner elixirs that had completely lost their color.

The remains of the owner of the cave are not among them, and it is presumed that he died outside.

Apart from the remains, the only thing worth paying attention to in the cave was that the three of them found a parchment book kept in a brocade box, which contained a large number of complete records.

The things recorded in a parchment that can be properly preserved are definitely not simple.

Unfortunately, we can only understand the contents after we leave and hand it over to the Administration Bureau, where experts will study and decipher it.

Jiang Xun also explained to the three of them what he found in the pit in the morning and expressed his own views.

Regarding this, Tang Long and the other three expressed disbelief.

It is too shocking that the great terror that led to the destruction of an entire prosperous world where Ascended Ones existed was man-made and still exists to this day.

of course.

It's scary. It's impossible for the three of them to be so scared.

Secret exploration is full of unknowns.

Excitements are everywhere, and unexpected situations abound.

No big deal.

Rather than being awed by speculation, it is better to try to dig out the dusty truth.

The four of them didn't waste any time.

Jiang Xun took out the overbearing off-road vehicle, and the team members all got on the vehicle and headed straight to the hinterland of Buzhouxian Dynasty.

……

The area covered by the black mist was not as big as imagined.

Within two hours of Jiang Xun's drive, signs of spiritual creature activity began to appear everywhere, and from time to time, traces of fights between creatures from the secret realm that had entered the country could be found.

Park on an open plain.

Jiang Xun glanced at the blazing sun hanging high in the sky outside the window, then turned to look at the three of them.

"Judging from the signs of biological activity on the ground, we have already exceeded the spread of black fog."

"Two choices, should we continue to move forward and see if we can find the remnants of the Buzhou Immortal Dynasty, or should we turn back and look for what is attracting it in the spread of the black mist?"

The three of them looked at each other when they heard this, and Tang Long spoke up.

"I think it is more appropriate to continue moving forward. Calculated from where we started, the lateral distance of the black fog activity area is only less than two hours' drive. The lateral exploration on foot can only be completed in one day at most."

"Although this is based on the premise of letting go, there are quite a few explorers in the black mist activity area, and some people even made gains yesterday afternoon. Driven by profit, other teams can be seen nearby, and the explorers You will become bolder and bolder in your actions, and your efficiency will naturally improve.”

"I'm afraid that by tomorrow at the latest, the Black Mist activity area will be completely wiped out. We are a four-person team operating together. Even with your domineering car beside us, we may not be able to get anything out of it, unless it is really Unlucky."

After telling the story, Tang Long glanced at the two people in the back seat.

"Instead of delaying in the black fog activity area, it is better to continue walking. It is more likely to take advantage of the opportunity and gain something."

"I agree."

Zhu Weiyang spoke up from the back seat.

Just as Chen Xiaoyu was about to speak, the phones in the pockets of the four of them vibrated.

They all took out their mobile phones in confusion, and the four of them discovered that it was a notification from the outpost that someone had discovered the rocky mountain that Jiang Xun saw yesterday.

"Tsk."

Jiang Xun smacked his lips.

Of course he was mentally prepared to suppress the news.

So many explorers.

But he wasn't the only one with eyes.

On the mind.

Competent explorers do not necessarily have to be smart, but they must have clear thinking.

Most explorers will not blindly follow the announcements from the outpost.

It is almost a compulsory course for all explorers to judge based on their own location whether there is any oil or water that can be fished out when they arrive at the reported location.

However, Jiang Xun really didn't expect that an explorer would run to Shishan so soon and discover the sword intention and message left by Miaoyu.

Seriously.

That place is quite far away.

For serious exploration, it will take at least a few days before anyone reaches that location.

It seemed that some explorer became interested in the dividing line lined with stone monuments and walked along it. Like him, he was bolder and chose to let go and walk in the air.

Without thinking much, Jiang Xun kicked the accelerator to the bottom.

Domineering galloped out.

The outpost report only mentioned Miaoyu's voice and the location of Shishan.

But what he could think of, other explorers could think of.

The pattern of dividing the world between the Buzhou Immortal Dynasty and the foreign races in the secret realm has been made clear.

I really have no choice now.

It's important to go to the hinterland of Zhou Xianchao quickly.

On one side is the human dynasty, on the other side is the alien territory.

Both sides may discover the remains of the cultivation civilization, which are of great excavation value, but no matter how you think about it, there will be many people who will run to the human race.

……

Dazzling.

More than two hours passed, and it was afternoon.

Jiang Xun drove Ba Dao to follow the plain road, avoiding the boundaries of mountains and forests.

Secret creatures are indispensable in the world of mountains and forests, and their exploration value is quite high.

But what they are looking for this time is the remnants of the Buzhou Immortal Dynasty, and it is not appropriate to run around blindly.

While walking on the plain with a wide view, Chen Xiaoyu, who was sitting in the back seat, suddenly patted the driver's seat.

"Jiang Xun!"

?

Jiang Xun made a question mark, stopped and turned around.

Tang Long looked back.

Zhu Weiyang in the back seat also looked sideways.

In order to avoid mistakes on the road, the four people had a clear division of labor and observed different directions on the road.

Jiang Xun and Tang Long mainly observed the near and far points of the road ahead, while the two women in the back seat focused on observing the left and right roads.

Chen Xiaoyu spoke out, obviously making a discovery.

At this moment, people were indeed looking out the window intently.

But the three of them looked out the right rear window, and all they could see was a stretch of mountains, nothing worth paying attention to.

While the three of them were staring at each other, Chen Xiaoyu looked back and spoke.

"There seems to be something behind the mountains in the distance. I just vaguely saw a palace-like building in the gap. The overbearing car is going fast. If you go a little further, you should be able to see it if you turn back."

A palace-like building?
The three people in the car were refreshed.

Jiang Xun decisively shifted into reverse gear and reversed the car at a constant speed.

soon.

Ba Dao faced a fork in the distance where mountains intertwined.

When Kankan passes by.

The three of them saw a dilapidated and short palace standing behind the mountain.

this location.

It cannot be said that he is not tricky.

The palace is completely hidden behind the mountain, and a small half of the building can only be seen from a specific angle.

Found it!

After confirming that she had read it correctly, Chen Maoniang's ears moved even more.

"Let's go? Come over and take a look?"

"necessary."

Jiang Xun pushed the accelerator to the bottom, turned the steering wheel to adjust the direction of advancement, and headed straight for it.

……

After ten minutes.

The four of them approached the boundary of the mountains.

At this point, the palace building hidden behind the mountain became clearly visible, and the four of them discovered that it was not as small as it looked from a distance.

By today's standards, this palace is at least fifteen or six stories high.

It's just that it is dwarfed by the majestic branches of the mountain range and the distance.

You can also confirm it after getting closer.

The palace building is not hidden behind the mountain, but is built on a low ground in the mountain area.

Looking from a distance outside the mountains, one cannot see the conditions inside.

Parking on the spot, Jiang Xun turned around.

"Let's get out of the car and walk the rest of the way."

"All right."

Tang Long responded and got off the bus first.

The latter two women got off the car with Jiang Xun.The four of them stood still, and Zhu Weiyang glanced at the sky.

"We have three hours at most before dusk falls. We need to hurry up and cross the mountain to the palace to confirm, and then find a place to spend the night."

"Come with me."

Jiang Xun nodded and said something, then walked out quickly with his feet moving.

The three of them followed one after another.

Going over mountains and ridges is not that easy.

Especially when the way forward is unclear.

This is not.

As soon as they entered the mountain, Jiang Xun, who was walking at the front, discovered no less than ten secret realm creatures lurking in the mountain through his spiritual perception, but they were all quite far away.

Given the limited time.

Jiang Xun did not go out to provoke these mysterious creatures.

The leader walked straight ahead.

Jiang Xunguo's spiritual perception successively discovered nearly two hundred secret realm creatures lurking everywhere. Tang Long and three other people behind him also discovered them to a certain extent.

Not to mention three people.

Even Jiang Xun himself relaxed a little.

The magic armor is with you.

Under the premise of not having a direct encounter, the four of them actually don't need to be so careful.

Because in the senses of the creatures in the secret realm, the breaths of the four of them are no different from ordinary stones.

But don't be afraid of ten thousand.

During the day, the biological activity in the secret realm is not strong, but they will still pop out when they are in the habitat. If it causes too much commotion, they may have no choice but to retreat.

There was no danger all the way.

In about 10 minutes, the team quickly passed through the mountains outside the mountains.

As soon as they entered the hinterland of the mountains, the four of them stopped separately.

The palace building is close at hand.

But what appeared in front of the four people at this time was not just a palace, but a basin guarded by contiguous mountains.

above the basin.

A severely decayed ancient city stands quietly.

The buildings in the ancient city are generally only one or two stories high.

In addition, the basin is low-lying.

If it weren't for the unique tall palace, it would never have been discovered by simply passing by.

Standing on the high point of the mountain border and looking down.

There are a large number of contiguous low buildings, decayed and dilapidated, occupying almost the entire basin area surrounded by mountains.

Seeing this scene, Chen Xiaoyu swung her tail behind her waist and looked at the three of them respectively.

She didn't speak.

There is a mask on the face, so no expression can be seen.

But Jiang Xun and others all know that "praise me, praise me, praise me quickly" is probably written on a person's face.

After all, you can understand how easy this cat girl is just by looking at her tail.

Jiang Xun looked at Chen Mao Niang without hesitation, and Jiang Xun gave a thumbs up gesture without hesitation.

"Well done, I'll give you a big credit for this."

After receiving the compliment as he wished, Chen Xiaoyu waved his tail to express his appreciation and turned to look at the ancient city in the basin.

"Simply the number of buildings, this ancient city can be said to be a large city in today's world. The towering palace is also quite special. It is obviously a place where important people stay. Could we be lucky and accidentally discover the Buzhou Immortal Dynasty? Imperial City?”

"Not very likely."

Jiang Xun shook his head and said.

"This place is too close to the border of the Buzhou Immortal Dynasty. The Immortal Dynasty wouldn't be so stupid to put the imperial city in this position."

Before he finished speaking, Tang Long spoke up.

"That's not necessarily the case. The Immortal Dynasty is powerful, and the location of the imperial city must be full of experts. Being closer to the border will make it easier to deal with various responses."

"Brother Long has some truth, but of course it is not absolute. It is important to note that we cannot look at the Buzhou Immortal Dynasty the same way we look at ancient dynasties."

Zhu Weiyang answered and said.

"The ancient dynasties in our modern history have distinguished the secular world from the world of practitioners. The prosperous times of the dynasties have always been controlled by people who are not skilled in spiritual practice. Everyone who becomes an emperor wants to live forever and enter the immortal sect, but never People live their lives as they wish.”

"The Buzhou Immortal Dynasty is not like what we know. This is a prosperous dynasty that is completely dominated by practitioners. The concepts and forms of existence must be very different."

Hearing the two voices speaking out one after another, Jiang Xun nodded thoughtfully.

It's a matter of fact.

He still didn't think this place would be Buzhou Imperial City.

But just as Zhu Weiyang said.

The Buzhou Immortal Dynasty must be very different from the prosperous dynasty he knew.

Without thinking deeply, Jiang Xun glanced at Tang Long inquiringly.

The latter spoke knowingly.

"I'm not aware of any restrictions at the moment. We can go down and have a look, but it's better to be cautious."

"This city is in serious decay, but as a historical monument, it is quite well-preserved. We cannot rule out that there is some kind of arrangement that ensures that the buildings in the city are left behind in the years. In addition, we cannot rule out that there are secret creatures living in the ancient city."

After listening to Tang Long's story, Jiang Xun nodded and made a decision.

"I'll go down first, you guys wait."

"Be careful."

Chen Xiaoyu responded, waving his hand to summon the flying sword and getting ready for help.

Zhu Weiyang said nothing, summoned the Yunxian Talisman Box and used it to shine on Jiang Xun, applying a set of negative BUFFs.

It has to be said that it is a blessing to have such a wealthy Talisman Master like Weiyang in the team.

Changed to another team.

I am afraid that not many Talisman Masters are willing to have such luxury before they are sure whether there is a potential threat.

This is also the reason why Tang Long liked to team up with Zhu Weiyang in the past.

These sisters.

When it's time to shoot, it will shoot.

Don't look at people.

With the blessing of a full set of Talisman BUFFs that resisted negative effects, Jiang Xun did not hesitate and jumped off the cliff.

soon.

He landed lightly and stood on top of a nearby low, flat-roofed building.

Look around.

No abnormalities were seen.

Consciousness swept away.

There is no spiritual energy concentration point worthy of attention in the nearby perceptible area.

Looking back and looking upward, Jiang Xun made a gesture.

Tang Long and others understood this and came down one after another.

When they landed, they found that this was a completely empty city. There was not even a spiritual energy concentration point in the area that could be detected by the spiritual sense. The three of them looked at each other and cheered up.

"There's something wrong with this place."

Tang Long whispered.

"There are so many mysterious creatures hiding in the mountains outside, but inside it is completely an empty city. As for these relatively well-preserved buildings, they are much more fragrant to hide in than the stones, vegetation and other things outside."

"When something goes wrong, there must be a monster, so you have to be careful next time."

Chen Xiaoyu agreed and spoke out.

Zhu Weiyang asked.

"Isn't there any restriction in Brother Long's city?"

"Not seen for a while."

Tang Long responded and then looked at Jiang Xun.

"What should I say? Should we spread out and explore now, or should we find a place to spend the night?"

With that, he added.

"I'm worried that there will be some unpredictable dangers in the city at night. I personally recommend finding another place."

Jiang Xun was silent for a moment, looking at the nearby mountains where a large number of secret creatures lived, and pondered.

"I'm afraid it's more unsafe in the mountains at night than in the city. If we go outside the mountains, we have to miss the opportunity to observe the night conditions in the city. It's better to be more adventurous and find a high point that is convenient for observation but far away from the ground."

Hearing what he said, the three of them looked at the unique palace building in the city.

Looking back, Zhu Weiyang said.

"I think it can be possible, but before that we have to explore the palace and make sure it is correct and complete the layout as soon as possible."

Jiang Xun turned his head and came over.

"Brother Long, are you working harder?"

Tang Long spread his hands to express his resignation.

Arranging the camp has always been the duty of the formation master.

In a secret realm like a cave in the Immortal Palace, the formation master was extremely popular but also under great pressure. He had nothing to say other than to accept his fate.
