I asked you to raise a spiritual pet, but you raised a divine beast?

Chapter 53 The original NPC in the secret realm?

"Brother Jiang, I wonder where the secret treasure in the secret realm is?"

Wang Hao asked while eating a popsicle.

They came here to look for the secret treasure, so naturally they couldn't stay for too long. They should find the location of the secret treasure as soon as possible.

Jiang Cheng recalled the scene when he first came here. If he guessed correctly, there was an oasis a few hundred kilometers away from here. There would be an NPC in the oasis, and that NPC would guide the player to find the secret treasure according to the needs.

You have to know that this is a secret place in the game, not something in reality. The creatures inside may be fake, but they may also be real.

Sometimes you really have to ask about the location of the natives in the secret realm.

The secret treasures in the advanced secret realms are not in designated locations, but are random. They are likely to appear here, or they are likely to appear in other locations. This cannot be predicted.

Jiang Cheng sat on the water dragon's head and said, "Let's go find someone first, and you will know when the time comes."

Wang Hao and his companions were all stunned, but they still sat on top of the water dragon, followed Brother Jiang's guidance, and slowly flew towards the distance.

Until night, Jiang Cheng arrived at an oasis while flying. This was the only oasis that could be found in the ancient wilderness. Being able to live here was definitely the happiest thing.

As we entered the oasis, a cool breeze blew in our faces, forming a sharp contrast with the scorching temperature outside.

Of course, at night the temperature in the desert will drop rapidly, even reaching an irresistible climate.

On both sides of the oasis are statues of spiritual pets used for sacrificial purposes. Each statue is portrayed so lifelike that they seem real.

Seeing the buildings here, Li Nan couldn't help but exclaimed: "I didn't expect the buildings here to be so lifelike. It seems that after the secret realm in the game is realized, the things inside are no different from the real thing."

“This is much more comfortable than playing games.”

After walking in the oasis for a few minutes, a shop selling maps appeared in front of them.

Seeing the shop, they didn't show much surprise. Secret maps had appeared many times in the game to prevent people from getting lost in the secret realm.

The room is not big, but it is very tidy. There are many scrolls on the cabinets on the side. It goes without saying that these should be the maps of the ancient wilderness.

Behind the counter, an old man was carefully making a map with his head down.

This old man is obviously quite old, but although he has white hair, the dry palm holding the black drawing pen is still steady and strong.

When the old man sensed someone coming here, he not only did not move, but said indifferently:

"Take whatever you want. The maps are on the cabinet. Also, leave here as soon as you finish shopping. I don't like people staying here."

Jiang Cheng glanced at the old man in front of the counter and didn't care too much.

I strode to the place where the maps were piled up. I didn't know whether it was because this place was too remote or there were few signs of human activities in the desert, but the table was already covered with dust.

Even those hand-assembled maps were covered in dust, and any one of them you picked up would have a pungent smell of decay.

Jiang Cheng then asked: "Old sir, do you know where the secret treasure landed?"

Hearing these words, the old man's slowly moving ink pen suddenly touched the brush, and it broke abruptly with a crisp sound.

Then he suddenly straightened his back, and the ice-blue aura continued to spread around like a raging storm. Wherever it passed, the entire ground was filled with a circle of special frost.

The old man slapped the table hard and jumped out from behind the counter. The temperature in the room dropped rapidly and the heavy door closed.

Wang Hao immediately took an attacking stance and asked, "What's going on? Would an NPC in the secret realm take action?" However, top student Li Nan gave a different opinion, "This old man is no longer an NPC. He should be a living person. Don't forget that everything is real after it is materialized."

"The secret realm is no exception. The people and spirit pets here are all real. In other words, the old man in front of us already has his own consciousness."

After hearing Li Nan's explanation, Wang Hao and the others suddenly understood what was going on. No wonder this old guy wanted to take action right away.

The old man said grimly: "Anyone who peeks into the secret treasure shall die!"

"Just you?"

Wang Hao rolled up his sleeves and said, "Old man, you don't look like you have a spirit pet. You are just an ordinary person and you want to fight us. You are so arrogant."

However, the old man suddenly took action, his whole body as fast as lightning, causing a huge wave of violence in the room.

"So fast!"

Wang Hao was shocked.

Just when he thought the opponent's fist was about to fall on him, Jiang Cheng appeared out of nowhere and grabbed the old man's fist.

"More than eight hundred levels..."

Feeling the other party's level, Jiang Cheng also revealed a hint of surprise in his heart.

No wonder in the game of "Journey of Evolution of Divine Beasts", NPCs are generally much stronger than players. In short, if you are strong, they are strong, and if you are weak, they are weak.

The old guy in front of him was obviously a strong man of over level 800. No wonder he didn't take Wang Hao seriously.

"Boy, I didn't expect you to have some skills, but anyone who tries to spy on the secret treasure will die!"

Jiang Cheng pushed the old man in front of him back and asked, "Old sir, we are here to look for secret treasures, not to rob them. Besides, secret treasures are obtained by those who are lucky enough to get them."

The old man straightened his back and said, "You are not the ones who have the chance. Please leave here. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

"What if I don't?"

Jiang Cheng half-squinted his eyes.

"Then don't blame me for being rude. Because you are geniuses, I'm letting you leave and forget everything you know. This is for your own good."

Taoist Tianyun said with disdain.

"In that case, I'm sorry, Wang Hao. The three of you leave here first. I will compete with this old gentleman."

Wang Hao chuckled, turned around, looked at Taoist Tianyun and said, "Old man, you drew a bad lot."

After saying these words, Wang Hao and Li Nan tactfully left the room, giving Brother Jiang and the old guy some time to be alone.

Jiang Cheng placed the emperor beast in his arms on the table and said, "Then I'm sorry."

As he spoke, Jiang Cheng's body suddenly disappeared, and the air in the room suddenly stagnated, giving people a sense of illusion. When he reappeared, he had already arrived in front of Taoist Tianyun.

Taoist Tianyun also felt an unprecedented sense of oppression. He naturally knew that this man's power was extremely terrifying. If he did not resist, his life would be in danger!
