A devil's self-redemption

A group of people quickly arrived at the square where yesterday's competition was held. At this time, the arena in the square had disappeared, leaving only the tall grandstand.

Song Yue stood on the bleachers, looked at the people who had arrived and said, "The secret realm is about to open, please come with me." After saying that, he soared up into the clouds, stood high in the sky and flew slowly towards the back mountain of Fuyao Sect.

Luo Lai and others did not hesitate, jumping and running to follow Song Yue to the back mountain.

Song Yue flew very slowly, but those behind him had to use all their strength to keep up.

Half an hour later, even Luo Lai's strong body could no longer bear it. Wen Ruyu and others were even panting. Song Yue stopped and looked at the embarrassed people below and said, "It's still lacking." Exercise, if you provoke a powerful monster when entering the secret realm, you won't be able to escape."

Yu Cai'e is a member of the Fuyao Sect, and she is very ashamed of her dissatisfaction with Song Yue, a senior, and the others also look ashamed.

"After the mountain in front is where the secret realm is, keep moving forward." Song Yue suddenly disappeared after saying this.

Luo Lai and others looked at each other, no longer delayed, and started running quickly again.

When they saw Song Yue again, Song Yue was standing behind Fuyao Sect leader Hu Pu, quiet and harmless.

Hu Pu looked at the staggering crowd with a smile on his face and said, "Song Yue doesn't know how to handle things, so you are all in trouble."

When Luo Lai and others heard this, they quickly saluted and said it didn't matter.

"Haha, the secret realm will be opened in an hour. You should take advantage of this time to adjust your breath quickly!" After Hu Pu finished speaking, he waved his left hand, and a pill appeared in front of Luo Lai and others.

Everyone looked happy, expressed their thanks one after another, and then found a place to start regulating their breath.

Elders from various sects have also come here, even those sects where no one has the qualification to enter the secret realm are no exception.

Liu Guoxi had no expression on her face, looking at Song Hongzhuang who was sitting cross-legged in meditation, with a trace of helplessness and blame flashing in her eyes. Then his eyes fell on Luo Lai, and the cruelty flashed in his eyes.

hehe! You'd better be killed by Song Hongzhuang. If you kill Song Hongzhuang instead, your result will be more miserable than death.

As if he noticed it, Luo Lai suddenly turned his head towards where the elders were, but at this time Liu Guoxi had already withdrawn his gaze and was not noticed by Luo Lai.

In fact, Liu Guoxi was also a little surprised by Luo Lai's keen spiritual sense. He was several levels higher than Luo Lai, so it was really strange that he noticed something was wrong.

An hour passed quickly, and Hu Pu spoke again: "Everyone, be prepared. This opportunity is rare. I hope you will take advantage of it. The secret realm will be opened!"

Following his order, the five elders of the Fuyao Sect behind him rose into the air, flew to a stone wall, made secrets with their hands, and began to drive spells into the stone wall. This process lasted for a quarter of an hour. The original ordinary The stone wall began to become sparkling, rippling layer by layer until it expanded into a pitch-black hole more than one foot high.

"Hi!"

A loud roar came from the mouth of an elder, and sparkling light enveloped Luo Lai and others. In the next moment, everyone disappeared, the place was empty, and they were sucked into the secret realm.

Luo Lai felt dizzy for a while, and after his eyes blurred, his figure appeared in a strange place.

Everything that comes into view here are shrubs half as tall as a person. There is a dense forest at the end of the front left field of view. Four bright suns hang in the sky. The hot air in the air makes people feel very unbearable.

Everyone from Lichen Sect gathered around Luo Lai and kept a certain distance from people from other sects.

At this moment, except for people from the same sect, they are all enemies, even if the shadow of Lingquan has not been seen yet.

Wen Ruyu whispered: "The scenes in this secret realm are different every time, so there is no information for reference."

Luo Lai closed his eyes and used his mental power to the extreme to feel the richness of the spiritual energy.

Although there is no information, the high-grade spiritual spring must be in a place with the strongest spiritual energy.

After a moment, he opened his eyes, pointed in the direction of the forest and said, "Let's go there!" After saying that, he took lunch and walked over first, followed by the people of the Lichen Sect of course.

Lian Xinnu and others looked at each other, but Ding Xiaojia followed without any hesitation and soon caught up with Luo Lai and the others.

"Hey, my name is Ding Xiaojia, a disciple of the Divine Fist Sect. Can I join you?" Ding Xiaojia said very familiarly.

Luo Lai looked at him in surprise and asked doubtfully: "Aren't you going to unite against us?"

Ding Xiaojia touched the back of his head and said sheepishly: "My master has always taught me to be honest and flexible in doing things!"

"Your master is very transparent!" Luo Lai directly extended his thumb!

In this way, Ding Xiaojia joined the Lichen Sect's team, and the alliance of other factions following him felt aggrieved. Before the fight had even begun, his side had lost a general, and they couldn't keep up with Ding Xiaojia's brains at all. loop.

Luo Lai, who was walking at the front, made a gesture to Wen Ruyu and looked at Ding Xiaojia, who was at the back of the team. Wen Ruyu nodded, led Shan Ling to Ding Xiaojia, and started walking together.

Ding Xiaojia laughed innocently and started chatting with Wen Ruyu very familiarly. He was especially concerned about the beautiful Shan Ling. He didn't take a sneak peek, but his sneak peek happened to be seen by the two of them. It made Shan Ling feel particularly uncomfortable.

Luo Lai does not trust this Ding Xiaojia, but his existence may be a breakthrough, a breakthrough for suspicion among other sects.

He didn't put too much energy into Ding Xiaojia, as long as Wen Ruyu kept an eye on him. The most important thing for him now was to search for the spiritual spring. He had already maximized his mental power and was always paying attention to the rich changes in the spiritual energy.

In fact, he has noticed several places with relatively strong spiritual energy. There should be spiritual springs there, but the level of the spiritual springs will not be too high. After all, they are still on the periphery.

Along the way, they encountered many beasts whose strength and status did not even reach that of a first-level monster. After feeling the aura emanating from Luo Lai and others, they all fled in a hurry.

We also encountered many first-level monsters in the process. Most of them stayed near some low-level spiritual springs. They became particularly irritable after sensing the approach of Luo Lai and others, but they did not leave the spiritual springs to attack Luo Lai and others. People's sense of crisis should tell them that they will die if they attack.

Everyone who participated in the trial ignored these monsters and rushed forward to find some high-level spiritual springs.

Two hours later, Luo Lai, who had been leading the way, paused, looked to the right, and turned his body to the right. After closing his eyes for a moment, he said, "There is something weird there. Let's go and have a look." After saying that, he ran towards the right front, and the others also started running when they saw this.

The location where Luo Lai sensed the abnormality was not far from them, and the group arrived quickly.

What caught everyone's eyelids was a three-meter-square turbid pool. There was some mist floating above the pool, and there were some animal bones at the bottom.

Luo Lai frowned and looked at the pool, which was smaller than the mouth of the well, with a bad feeling in his heart.

Shan Ling said: "Isn't this just a spiritual pool? It's too small. Besides, why are there skeletons in the spiritual pool?"

But no one answered her doubts. Upon seeing this, Ding Xiaojia hurriedly stepped forward, took a look at the small pool, and said with a smile: "This is the Lingchi, yes, but it has been abandoned. Normally, the water in the Lingchi is clear and transparent. There won’t be any bones in the pool, and even if someone or a monster dies in the pool, it will be quickly dissolved by the water.”

Luo Lai asked doubtfully: "Then how was this waste pond formed?"

Ding Xiaojia smiled softly and said: "It's very simple. The owner of the skeleton exhausted the spiritual energy in the pool, and it seems to be at a critical juncture in its cultivation. Without the help of the special spiritual energy in the pool, there is a high probability that it went crazy and died here."

Luo Lai nodded in agreement, turned around and took a private look around, and found nothing unusual. He was about to leave, but as soon as he moved, he felt something hard under his feet.

He stopped, curiously lowered his body and picked up the hard object.

It was a round sign about the size of a palm, made of a material that looked like gold but not jade. It had a strange character engraved on it that Luo Lai didn't recognize. He looked over it several times, but found no other marks except the text.

Ding Xiaojia and Wen Ruyu gathered around and looked curiously at the strange sign in Luo Lai's hand.

Luo Lai handed the sign to Wen Ruyu and said, "Come and take a look. Do you recognize the words on it?"

Wen Ruyu took the sign and looked at it carefully. He quickly frowned and said, "I don't know you!" After that, he handed the sign back to Luo Lai.

Luo Lai did not pick it up, but pointed at Ding Xiaojia, who was full of curiosity, and motioned to give him the sign so that he could take a look.

Wen Ruyu nodded, turned around and handed the sign to Ding Xiaojia.

Ding Xiaojia took the sign and carefully wiped off the dirt on it with his sleeves. He was as careful as wiping the beauty's skin that could be broken by blows, and then felt a chill.

After half a quarter of an hour, Ding Xiaojia wiped all the signs clean and began to read the text on it.

His expression was a little surprised, but also a little confused, as if he was stumped in a field he was familiar with.

After a quarter of an hour, Luo Lai felt a little relieved. Ding Xiaojia looked at him and said, "Although I don't know the word, I'm sure it's a demon script, and it's a very high-level demon script!"

Luo Lai was stunned for a while. He had heard of demon writing, which was a text used by the demon clan. It was usually used to record the demon clan’s cultivation techniques. However, he heard from Ding Xiaojia that it seemed that the demon clan’s writing was divided into levels. This was touching. His knowledge blind spots.

He frowned and asked, "Is there still a level of demon literature?"

Wen Ruyu also looked confused. It seemed that he didn't understand this kind of thing.

Ding Xiaojia said matter-of-factly: "Of course, there are three levels of demon texts. The lowest demon texts usually appear in a whole article or a whole book, recording certain skills and secrets. There is nothing magical in the text; secondly, Usually appear in the form of words, and each word contains a kind of magical power. As long as you understand that word thoroughly, you will also learn the certain magical power contained in it; the highest level is the word in the brand, don't read this The text is ordinary, but if there are people from the demon clan here now, they will definitely go crazy for it. As for what is so magical about this text, I don’t know.”

After saying that, he handed the sign to Luo Lai and said with some envy: "This sign is a treasure for the demon clan, you must collect it carefully!"

Luo Lai was a little unsure of what Ding Xiaojia meant. Logically speaking, such a valuable treasure should not be revealed in public. Didn't you see that the eyes of other Lichen Sect disciples were already shining?

He took a deep look at Ding Xiaojia and then took the sign from his hand. Ding Xiaojia kept his eyes on the sign and did not look at Luo Lai.

Putting the sign into the Qiankun bag, he led everyone towards the place with strong spiritual energy and walked quickly.

Half an hour later, a series of bubbles suddenly appeared in the originally quiet and turbid water here, and a pair of scarlet eyes appeared above the water. "Come out! Since you woke me up, why hide anymore?"

His voice was hard and unpleasant, like the sound of dead wood scraping against a stone wall, which made people feel uncomfortable.

As its voice fell, a slender figure slowly appeared.

Judging from the appearance, this person turned out to be Song Hongzhuang!

Song Hongzhuang's face was expressionless at the moment, staring intently at those scarlet eyeballs, and she could not hide the complex look in her eyes.

"Hahahaha! Who am I! My dear disciple, I never thought that it would be you who woke me up for thousands of years, so you are not afraid that I will eat you right now!" A crazy and strange laughter came from the inside of the scarlet eyeball, full of malice. sky!

After listening to his words, Song Hongzhuang's complex look became more obvious. She whispered or murmured: "If you have the ability, come here! If you have the ability, come here..." She kept repeating this sentence, feeling angry all over. The machine drums, as if the next one will deliver a fatal blow to the scarlet eyeball.

"Hehehe, hehehe, hahaha..." The laughter from inside the scarlet eyeball continued to grow stronger and more rampant.

"I haven't noticed this little clone of yours yet. If the real body comes, I will swallow it with difficulty." The meaning of the scarlet eyeballs is very clear. I dislike Song Hongzhuang's clone because of its low strength and it is not worth taking action.

Song Hongzhuang was not angry, but she clenched her palms tightly, her joints turned white, and pursed her lips tightly without saying a word.

"Hehehe, now that you have found me, you can't stay here anymore. When I return to my peak strength, I will come to settle accounts with you. You have to live well. I don't want to wait until I find you. You are all already... It's a corpse...hehehe..." Scarlet Eyeball's voice became fainter and fainter, and his form slowly dissipated.

The moment the scarlet eyeballs disappeared, Song Hongzhuang suddenly waved her hand, and a piece of emerald green light directly enveloped the scarlet eyeballs. The scarlet eyeball suddenly let out a shrill scream, but disappeared without a trace the next moment. The place was empty, and there was no trace of the scarlet eyeball.

Song Hongzhuang stood there with a hearty smile on her face, but her laughter did not kill her.

Luo Lai, who had walked far away, suddenly turned his head and stared at the direction he had just come from, as if he had noticed something. Wen Ruyu asked nervously: "Senior Brother Luo, is there something wrong?"

Luo Lai didn't reply and walked towards the forest again after a moment. Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say, so they had no choice but to follow Luo Lai's footsteps.
