After that thrilling and dangerous life-and-death battle, Gu Cheng felt as if he had just experienced a nightmare journey like a stormy sea, struggling to wake up from the dark abyss exhausted physically and mentally.

His nerves, which had been as tight as a fully drawn bowstring, were finally relaxed and relieved at this moment, but this relaxation was not relaxed and pleasant, but more like a kind of weakness and exhaustion after suddenly losing support.

He dragged his particularly heavy steps with difficulty, slowly approaching the huge monster corpse as big as a hill not far away.

Every step he took was like stepping on soft cotton, and the soft and weak feeling made it almost impossible for him to stand firmly.

His feet seemed to have lost the real connection with the earth, and the whole person was like a cloud floating in the air, light and weightless.

The world around him became illusory and blurred, and he might fall into the endless void at any time.

As his footsteps moved, Gu Cheng could clearly feel his heartbeat echoing in his ears, deafening like thunder.

Sweat slid down his forehead and soaked his clothes, but he was unaware of it.

His eyes were always fixed on the creepy monster corpse in front of him.

When he finally got closer, he trembled and raised his exhausted arm, and slowly wiped the bean-sized sweat beads rolling down his forehead with his sleeve.

Sweat was like a flood that had already soaked his clothes, but he didn't care at all at this time.

At this moment, his face, which had become extremely pale due to being in a state of extreme tension for a long time, finally showed a faint smile of relief with difficulty.

This smile was like the first ray of warm sunshine breaking through the ice in early spring. Although it was so weak that it was almost imperceptible, it had enough power to penetrate the layers of haze and bring people a hint of hope and warmth.

After swallowing the monster's corpse and resting for a while, Gu Cheng gently closed his eyes and adjusted his slightly disordered breathing rhythm.

"Huh, I haven't experienced such a debilitating battle for a long time. It seems that as we go deeper, the monsters here are getting more and more difficult to deal with."

After his breath stabilized, he slowly opened his eyes and took a deep breath of the turbid and slightly humid air in the secret room, trying to make his exhausted body rejuvenated and full of fighting spirit.

He tilted his head slightly and cast his eyes on the soul-splitting sword leaning quietly against the stone wall beside him.

Now this sword is more than three feet long, with a wide blade and a thick back, and the whole body flashes with a chilling cold light, as if it can cut off everything in the world.

Gu Cheng carefully stretched out his right hand and tightly grasped the handle of the soul-splitting sword.

In an instant, a piercing coldness surged from his palm to his whole body like a tide, making him shiver, but at the same time, this chill also made his originally confused mind instantly become clear.

Gu Cheng gritted his teeth, suddenly lifted the Soul-Splitting Sword in his hand, feeling its heavy weight, and an inexplicable courage and determination surged in his heart.

"Let's go, we have to face what we have to face, after all, this is the only way to improve our strength."

After sighing, he took a step without hesitation and continued to advance deeper into the secret room.

As he went deeper, a strong and pungent old and rotten smell came to his face and penetrated into Gu Cheng's nasal cavity. The smell was like a cellar that had been placed for many years without being cleaned, making people want to vomit.

However, Gu Cheng did not stop his pace because of this. Instead, he endured the discomfort and groped forward with difficulty with the faint yellow light emitted by the few worn-out oil lamps on the wall.

These oil lamps have gone through years of vicissitudes. The lampshades have long been covered with thick dust, and the wicks have burned to a minimum, making the light they emit extremely limited, and can only barely illuminate a small area around them.

In this dimness, the surrounding scenes became blurred and shadowy, giving people a gloomy and terrifying feeling, as if some unknown danger would jump out of the darkness at any time.

The ground under his feet was even more rugged and uneven, with gravel of varying sizes and thick dust everywhere.

Gu Cheng had to be extremely careful with every step he took, for fear of being ambushed by something if he was not careful.

At this moment, a crisp "tick-tock" sound suddenly came from above his head, and a few drops of cold water dripped down without warning, just hitting Gu Cheng's shoulder.

The sudden chill penetrated his bones, causing him to shrink his neck involuntarily.

But even so, he still did not slow down his pace, and walked firmly towardsMoving forward.

As they walked, a fork appeared in front of them without any warning, as if the god of fate stretched out two hands, pointing to a completely different future.

The two passages each meandered into the distance, as if they were two deep wounds cracked in the earth.

Gu Cheng slowly stopped, frowned slightly, and stared at the two passages in front of him like a torch.

I saw that in the passage on the left, a pungent smell had filled the air at some point. This smell was like the stench of a rotten swamp, and the choking smell released by burning sulfur.

It penetrated into Gu Cheng's nasal cavity, irritating him to cough repeatedly.

The peculiar smell made Gu Cheng's heart tighten, and his intuition told him that there seemed to be a huge and unknown danger hidden deep in this passage.

Looking at the passage on the right again, it was in sharp contrast to the left, and it seemed relatively quiet here.

However, in this silence, a low and deep roar was faintly heard.

The sound seemed to come from an ancient beast, with endless majesty and anger, making people shudder.

Despite this, Gu Cheng still weighed the pros and cons in his mind.

Finally, after careful consideration, Gu Cheng resolutely took a step and walked towards the passage on the right.

Every step was taken carefully, for fear of disturbing some unknown existence.

As he gradually went deeper into the passage, the roar that was originally looming became clearer and clearer, and the deafening sound echoed in the narrow space, as if the entire passage was shaking because of the roar.

Suddenly, a black shadow pounced out of the darkness like lightning!

Gu Cheng only felt a flash in front of his eyes, and when he looked closely, he saw a huge werewolf with erect hair.

The body of this werewolf was as tall as two people, with sharp claws flashing cold light, bursts of hot air spurting out of his bloody mouth, and fangs were hideous and terrifying.
