After being stabbed to death by my junior brother

The slight dizziness that passed through the space gradually disappeared, and Shen Qiuting came back to his senses and found himself lying in a closed space.

The surroundings were very dark, without a ray of light, and the space seemed too cramped, but after a while, Shen Qiuting felt a little out of breath.

He felt around and found a solid plank.

This is... a coffin?

Shen Qiuting attached spiritual power to his hands, and tentatively pushed the wooden board above his head.

The coffin lid creaked and was pushed open, and the pale moonlight shone in.

Shen Qiuting got up from the coffin, sat in the coffin and surveyed the surrounding environment.

This is... the mass grave where he first resurrected his body?

Shen Qiuting frowned.

If the function of the "key" is not only used to get out of the White Tower, but to randomly teleport people to a certain place in Kyushu, it would be terrible.

He was not confused by the familiar environment, but cautiously explored his surroundings.

The surrounding area was quiet, without any movement of living people, not even the chirping of insects and birds.

Shen Qiuting got out of the coffin, walked a few steps, and accidentally kicked a roll of straw mat.

The straw mat rolled twice, and the straw rope tied in the middle was broken, revealing the empty inside.

There are no dead bodies.

The doubts in Shen Qiuting's heart were even worse, he looked around and saw a new grave, said "Offended", and dug up the seal on the grave.

There is still soil under the soil, and there is no shadow of a coffin or a corpse at all.

Shen Qiuting frowned, and followed the route in memory to the town.

The town was also deserted.

The entire space is like an empty shell made by something, with only an empty appearance, but there is no breath of living things inside.

What's important is that the houses on both sides of the town's streets are clean and tidy, but in reality the town has clearly been in ruins long ago.

All signs indicate that these should be illusions.

Shen Qiuting vaguely felt that he might not have left the secret realm, but something happened in the secret realm.

But even if something happened in the secret realm, why did the phantom of this small town appear?

Shen Qiuting pondered for a long while but couldn't come up with a reason, so he could only go to the river with his sword first, intending to see if there is a way to get out of the town first, and at the end of the day, find a living person.

The river at the end of the town is just like when Shen Qiuting saw it for the first time. It is a small river with a width of two feet.

It was almost dawn, and the sky was slightly brighter, and a round of white moon was reflected in the river, shaking slightly.

Shen Qiuting originally thought it was the ordinary fluctuation of the river, but after a closer look, he found that it was the reflection of the moon that was moving.

He raised his head and saw the moon hanging in the sky flickering like a candle blown by the wind.

Shen Qiuting's heart skipped a beat, and he looked around.

The sky was too dark, Shen Qiuting hadn't paid attention to it all the time, but now he took a closer look and found that it wasn't just the moon, but everything around him seemed to be fluctuating vaguely, as if... the energy supporting the illusion was no longer enough.

Shen Qiuting's eyes lit up.

Since the energy can't even maintain the basic form of the phantom, the possibility of the Styx barrier existing in the river water like in reality is greatly reduced.

Shen Qiuting took a step back, picked up a small stone, and threw it into the river.

The small stone drew an arc in mid-air, and fell steadily into the water, splashing a ripple.

Shen Qiuting was [-]% to [-]% sure in his heart, worried about what would happen to other people in the secret realm, so he didn't hesitate any more, even if Yu Jian crossed the small river.

As soon as he crossed the creek, the scene in front of Shen Qiuting's eyes suddenly distorted, and then he found himself standing on a flat piece of land.

The time has changed from dawn to dusk,

Shen Qiuting looked at the city gate not far away with the words "Fengcheng" hanging on it, and felt a deep headache.

What the hell does this happen?

With the previous experience, Shen Qiuting walked directly into the city gate without hesitation.

As soon as he stepped into the city gate, a breath suddenly appeared behind him.

His eyes froze, the spirit sword in his hand quickly unsheathed, and stabbed behind him.

The moment before the point of the sword was about to pierce the body of the person behind it, it stopped suddenly.

Shen Qiuting put away the spirit sword, without even turning his head, he couldn't help but said: "Xiaobai, can you make a sound before you come back next time, do you know that scaring people can scare people to death."

Although he was complaining, his tone was really relieved.

The sudden appearance of these phantoms in the secret realm is too weird, and it is a good thing that people are fine.

Bai Guanchen just wanted to call his name, but he was preempted, so he could only pursed his lips and nodded silently.

Shen Qiuting glanced at the surrounding market and frowned.

Fengcheng is the same as the town, the streets and houses are the same as in the past, even the small lanterns hanging on the side stalls are completely visible, except that there is no breath of life.

Shen Qiuting asked: "Xiaobai, have you been in this city all this time?"

"I came here after coming out of the White Tower," Bai Guanchen nodded, not knowing what he thought of, "This place is very strange, it should be just an illusion."

Shen Qiuting recounted what happened to him just now, and asked again: "Do you know if we are still in the secret realm?"

Bai Guanchen nodded: "Still in the secret realm."

As he spoke, he pushed open a door beside the road.

The interior of the room is not the layout of ordinary people, but a wilderness, from which the atmosphere consistent with the secret realm emanates.

Bai Guanchen explained: "When I first looked at it, the interior was still in a normal layout. When I looked at it just now, I found that the interior has become like this. You are right, the power supporting the illusion should be gradually weakening."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Qiuting saw the house flickering in front of him.

The two looked back, and saw that the entire "Fengcheng" was flickering frantically.

The scene of the secret realm covered by the illusion gradually became clear as it flickered on and off.

Bai Guanchen pulled out the spirit sword and said, "The illusion is about to collapse."

Shen Qiuting remained silent.

These phantoms themselves have no effect, they are more like derivatives of some kind of power, and what makes him more concerned is what these powers are used for.

"careful!"

Bai Guanchen seemed to have seen something, and quickly pulled Shen Qiuting aside.

A plaque of a roadside shop suddenly fell down, and the plaque suddenly disappeared into the air when it was close to the ground, and then the huge boulder covered by the phantom smashed hard on the ground, smashing a huge pothole.

Only a vague outline of Fengcheng's phantom remained, and the scene of the secret realm covered by the phantom reappeared in front of the two of them.

In front of the two of them was a huge mountain range. The mountain range shook violently as if it had been impacted by some kind of force, and huge boulders kept rolling down from it.

Dust soared into the sky, almost to the point of covering the sky.

Bai Guanchen embraced Shen Qiuting's waist with one hand, lowered his head and said, "Let's go first."

Shen Qiuting nodded, and quickly used Bai Guanchen's strength to mount his flying sword.

The two chose a direction, passed through the flying rocks, and stopped in a forest.

This forest seems to be quite old. The trees inside are extremely tall and cover the sky. As soon as you walk in, the surrounding area becomes dark.

Not long after the two of them walked in the woods, they saw an acquaintance.

Lu Cheng came out of the woods in disgrace, saw the two people stunned, wiped the ashes from their faces, and howled: "Old Shen, what kind of mysterious place is this?"

Shen Qiuting saw that the aura on his body was much stronger, and asked, "Have you found a chance?"

Lu Cheng was stunned for a moment, and smiled as if he was fine: "Yeah, good luck, I got an inheritance."

Shen Qiuting knew that he was thinking of Yan Jinhuan, and immediately changed the topic: "Did you encounter any illusion just now?"

"Have you seen it too?" Lu Cheng frowned, "It's just a big hall. The layout of that place is extremely evil, and it looks like a place of a demon realm."

After listening to his description, Shen Qiuting almost immediately judged that the place should be the Demon Palace of Demon Realm.

The phantoms encountered by several people are not the same.

He and Bai Guanchen looked at each other, and told the phantom they had encountered.

After hearing this, Lu Cheng frowned.

The small town, Fengcheng, and the Demon Palace in the Demon Realm, these places seem to have no connection, and I don't know how they came together.

Shen Qiuting walked to the side, and suddenly stepped on something inadvertently.

He looked down, bent down and picked up a bell with a red string.

It belongs to Zhou Xiaoyun.

Shen Qiuting held the bell in his hand and fiddled with it lightly.

With the help of the dim light in the woods, he found that there was something faintly engraved on the bell.

His eyes moved, he turned to Bai Guanchen and said, "Xiaobai, find something to take a picture of for me."

Bai Guanchen took out a luminous pearl according to his words, and the bright and soft light instantly illuminated a small area of ​​the world.

Shen Qiuting took a closer look at the bell with the light, only to realize that the thing engraved on it was a tree with scribbled strokes.

Tree?

He rubbed the lines on the bell, turned around, and finally locked his eyes on a particularly thick tree.

There are trees in the woods. Since Zhou Xiaoyun can use trees as clues, this tree must be the most unique one among all the trees.

Seeing that Shen Qiuting stopped in front of this tree, Bai Guanchen asked, "Is it this tree?"

Shen Qiuting gave a "hmm".

Bai Guanchen looked at the tree for a while, then suddenly drew out the spirit sword, and split the trunk with one sword.

Lu Cheng didn't know about Zhou Xiaoyun's affairs. Seeing that the two of them played a few charades and started cutting down trees, he couldn't help but asked, "What's going on here?"

"Wait first," Shen Qiuting patted him on the shoulder, absently comforting his friend, "I'll tell you about the matter when I get back."

Bai Guanchen moved very quickly, and he cut the tree trunk to the most central position in no time.

The heart of this tree turned out to be blood red.

With the piercing of the spirit sword, the blood-red heart of the tree seemed to have been stabbed, and a blood-like liquid gushed out from the center.

The pungent smell of blood spread in the air.

Immediately afterwards, the tree seemed to be enraged, and the branches on its body began to grow wildly, stabbing at the three people with its teeth and claws.

The three reacted quickly and quickly retreated.

Shen Qiuting saw sharply that there seemed to be a piece of jade pendant flashing at the position of the tree heart.

Seeing that piece of blood jade, Shen Qiuting was enlightened instantly, connecting all the clues together.

Small towns, Fengcheng, and the Demon Palace are all places where blood jades exist, and these blood jades are likely to be the sealed power of the demon god mentioned by Han Ze.

What did Lin Lang want to do by putting these blood jades in the secret realm?

The wildly growing branches danced in mid-air for a while, failed to catch anyone, and retracted again. Then, the opening on the trunk closed again at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if it had never appeared before.

Shen Qiuting's thoughts changed sharply, and he suddenly shouted: "Quickly, dig out the blood jade from the tree trunk!"

Bai Guanchen moved his hand the moment he spoke, and the spirit sword pierced through the branch to stab the trunk again, but the whole tree suddenly disappeared a second before the spirit sword touched the trunk.

The three of them froze in place.

The originally peaceful forest suddenly changed. The surrounding tall trees shrank to the size of small saplings in just a few breaths, and then disappeared into the air under the eyes of the three people.

Immediately afterwards, after the trees disappeared, the bare turf on the ground began to shrink gradually, revealing the yellowish color of the soil underneath.

"Go first."

Shen Qiuting made a decisive decision, winked at the two of them, and stepped on the flying sword together.

As the position continued to rise, the range of the secret realm that the three of them could see gradually increased.

Except for the woods, almost all places in the secret realm are disappearing rapidly, as if some special force is erasing them bit by bit.

In some places where the progress is fast, there is only a sudden black hole in space.The secret realm has become a sieve that leaks from all sides. If you are not careful, you will be sucked into the black hole and pulled to an unknown place.

Lu Cheng was dragged onto his flying sword by Shen Qiuting, looking at the scene below, he couldn't help saying: "It's over, we probably have no place to stay."

"There is another place." Shen Qiuting frowned, and his eyes fell on the only place that was not affected, "It's the White Pagoda."

The entire secret realm slowly disappeared like an illusion, only the white tower in the middle still stood there firmly, like the only hope.

It could also be a trap.

It didn't take long to see that the fairy aura around the White Tower seemed to have faded a lot, and a trace of dark demonic energy entangled all the way up the tower, making the aura around the White Tower even more turbid.

The author has something to say: there are two more chapters before the end of today!
