Zhang Yuanqing pressed his aching forehead, restrained his emotions, and took deep breaths again and again, resisting the chaotic and mixed will. In the process, his expression became inevitably distorted, and his emotions changed alternately.
A few minutes later, he opened his eyes and exhaled silently:
"I've almost reached my current limit..."
For spiritual realm practitioners of the same realm, with experience value below 50%, the limit is five at a time, and the total limit is ten.
If there are more than ten, his mind will inevitably collapse and split, and he will develop a second personality, or his temperament will change drastically and become unlike himself.
It is worth mentioning that these five dead ghosts increased Zhang Yuanqing's experience value by 6%, the illusionist by 2%, and the other four by 1%.
"My current experience value is 64%. If I have the Demon-Subduing Pestle, I can devour it unlimitedly. According to the rule that the higher the experience value, the slower the improvement, if I devour the spirits of about 80 more contestants, I can push my experience value to over 90%.
......The total number of people in the dungeon is only 183. To complete this is more difficult than breaking the record of a female marshal............"
Zhang Yuanqing put aside the matter of increasing experience points and summarized the information obtained from the residual soul.
Most of their precautions were repeated, but Zhang Yuanqing also found three new precautions.
Illusionist:
[4: The forest is dangerous, please do not eat colorful fungi and fruits]
Bewitching demon:
【5: If you feel unwell during a long journey, you can pick wild fruits to fill your stomach. 】
Fire Master:
【4: After dark, be careful of mountain ghosts. 】
"Now even the precautions on the signboard are contradictory... The outer area doesn't seem to be that simple. Although it's been almost two hours, I haven't encountered any major danger..."
"Be careful of mountain ghosts after dark. The outer area needs to be passed within 5 hours. It will not be dark at that time. Logically, this precaution should appear on the sign leading to the middle..."
Zhang Yuanqing fell into deep thought.
Based on the existing information, he made the following speculations about how to play in the outer area:
1. The precautions on the signboard are hidden tasks. You can explore them, but you can also choose not to.
2. The precautions on the signboard involve the gameplay in the middle of the forest. If you understand the mysteries in the precautions, you will gain certain advantages after entering the middle forest.
"That island nation JK should be dead. I'm going to collect her remaining soul and see what she needs to pay attention to."
Zhang Yuanqing pushed aside the vines hanging in front of him and returned the same way.
He shuttled between dense trees, avoided bushes, stepped on the soft soil, and returned to the "battlefield".
The girl was not dead yet. Although she was beaten with vines and bleeding, and her back was covered with whip marks, she stubbornly avoided the fatal parts and survived the intensive beating.
Zhang Yuan swept across the girl's delicate body, and the vines tore her clothes, revealing large areas of fair and tender skin on her back. The straps of her underwear were also torn.
Zhang Yuanqing was considering whether to possess her with a spirit and get rid of her, or wait until she was exhausted and died from the tree demon's encirclement, when the girl spotted Zhang Yuanqing, rolled over to avoid the vines, and turned her head to call for help:
"Save me, please save me."
Her eyes lit up and her face showed joy, thinking that the night-wandering god of this continent had come to save her.
Zhang Yunqing stood by the tree, playing the role of Fu Qingyang, with a cold expression:
"Why should I save you?"
Apart from Anne and Mr. Bill, he had never met any other foreign travelers, so he didn't mind having a conversation and getting information.
Hearing this, Asano Ryo was obviously stunned:
"We are all lawful camps and partners of justice. Isn't it natural for us to help each other?"
Damn righteous partner, who told you that order represents justice? Are you too naive, or do you think I am too naive... Zhang Yuanqing pulled out the explosive pistol:
"Answer wrong and prepare to die!"
Asano Ryo was stunned, as if he didn't expect that his normal answer would have such a result. The lawful camp is about helping each other and being partners of justice.
This is a concept instilled in her by the education and environment she was exposed to since childhood.
After a few seconds, she reacted, her face flushed, and her eyebrows raised:
"I understand. You are a fallen one, an evil fallen one! Go ahead and shoot me. I will not seek your help again. When I die, a righteous person will avenge me.
"I have already prepared myself to die bravely since entering the Slaughter Dungeon."
What is she talking about... Zhang Yuanqing originally wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to blackmail, demand benefits, gather intelligence, obtain information from the billboard, etc., but he didn't expect that the high school girl with a pure and beautiful appearance actually had such a strong heart that would rather die than surrender.
Then force the information out!
Zhang Yuanqing kept aiming, looking at the girl who was in danger from the vines and branches, and asked:
"I can save you, but you have to answer a few questions for me... What's your name!"
If the island girl still maintained her chaste and heroic attitude, Zhang Yuanqing would not shoot, but would stand by and wait for her death.
Although he was ruthless and decisive when killing the three evil professions, Zhang Yuanqing had psychological barriers when it came to killing lawful professions.
After all, most lawful professions are filled with good people.
Killing a bad guy will at most make you feel uncomfortable, but you won't have a strong sense of guilt. However, if you kill a good person by mistake, any normal person with a conscience will have a knot in his heart and will not be able to overcome the moral hurdle.
"My name is Asano Ryo!"
The girl shouted cooperatively.
Hey, where is your integrity as a righteous partner? Zhang Yuanqing asked:
"Tell me what you know about the precautions, which are on the sign."
The girl did not hesitate, and once again followed her heart's will and answered cooperatively:
“One: Please do not bring fire, knives, or dangerous items up the mountain.
2. Please don't speak loudly in the mountains... 4. Be careful with animals, especially monkeys. 5. If you encounter a mountain ghost, you can ask the monkey for help. "
Be careful with animals, but if you encounter a mountain ghost, you can ask the monkey for help? This is an interesting note... Zhang Yuanqing pondered for a few seconds and asked:
"Have you ever cut down a tree before?"
"It wasn't me who chopped it down. It was my companion. He accidentally chopped down a tree, and as a result, several tree demons appeared around it. Fortunately, there were not many of them at the time, so we were able to escape." Asano Ryo took the time to glance at the two corpses in the distance and said:
"They are companions I met after entering the dungeon. They are from the mainland. When they heard that I was from Taiwan, they were very enthusiastic and said that we should help each other. They are all partners of justice."
They are probably all greedy for your body... Zhang Yuanqing complained in his heart.
Through questions and answers, he gained a preliminary understanding of Asano Ryo's family background.
Asano Ryo was born into the Asano family, a chaebol in the island country. The Asano family is considered a half-spiritual realm family, and there will be several spiritual realm practitioners in the family every one or two generations.
Asano Ryo is one of only three spirit realm travelers in this generation. Her master is the deputy leader of the Chizuru Group, the official organization of spirit realm travelers in the island country, and a level 5 saint.
Because of his outstanding talent and this relationship, he was valued by the family elders and was promoted as one of the heirs of the Asano family.
It is worth mentioning that the Asano family is backed by the overseas Sky Punishment Organization, the strongest lawful force in the world.
In addition, Zhang Yuanqing also figured out the structure of the spiritual realm practitioners in the island country, and found that there were no individual cultivators in the island country.
On the one hand, the number of spiritual realm practitioners is very small, and the innate conditions are insufficient. On the other hand, the country's area is small, the population is dense, and the chaebols have strong control over society. As long as there are independent practitioners, they will be discovered immediately and then absorbed.
To the organization.
Therefore, the island country has only one organization affiliated with the government - Chizuru Group.
As well as scattered semi-spiritual families.
It is true that they have not formed a large-scale organization. Compared with the Five Elements Alliance and even the three major evil organizations, the Qianhe Group is just a small club... Zhang Yuanqing knows it.
Bang!
A vine hit Asano Ryo's lower abdomen. She groaned, holding her lower abdomen, her face pale, and said weakly:
"Please, please keep your promise!"
Too exhausted to use the passive skill? Zhang Yuanqing raised his eyebrows, leaned against the tree trunk, used Night Walk, and his spirit body controlled the bloodthirsty blade and rushed out.
"Puff, puff, puff~"
The sharp willow blade drew out graceful silver lines, cutting off the vines and tree roots that were pulling towards Asano Ryo, opening up an escape route for her.
Seeing this, Asano Ryo suppressed the pain and weakness, burst out with his potential on the verge of despair, and successfully escaped from the encirclement of the tree demon under the cover of the bloodthirsty blade.
"Plop~"
She fell heavily to the base of the tree covered in rotting leaves, gasping for air.
Her clothes were already torn, revealing her white belly and delicate belly button, but the scars from the wounds made the scene, which should have been full of erotic fantasy, become a little miserable.
Asano Ryo's chest was heaving violently, his heart was beating under load, and his body was breathing in oxygen hungrily. He no longer had the energy to care about the fact that his private parts had been exposed.
When she began to catch her breath, she remembered that she was a famous beauty after all, and her appearance and body were extremely attractive to young men.
She suddenly stopped breathing, held her chest, and looked around vigilantly.
At this moment, a piece of clothing floated over and covered her face.
After a while, there was a noise coming from the bushes not far away, and the night wanderer with an ordinary appearance but a very cold temperament walked out.
"Put on your clothes and follow me!"
Zhang Yuanqing said coldly.
"You, what else do you want to do..." Asano Ryo realized that he was captured and this night wandering god of the continent had no intention of letting him go.
Zhang Yuanqing said in a cold tone:
"You're a beautiful girl, and beautiful girls always get discounts. I won't hurt you if you get special treatment."
Just as Asano Ryo breathed a sigh of relief, he heard him add:
“From now on, you are my jungle guide dog!
What kind of guide dog is this? It's clearly cannon fodder... Asano Ryo's face froze.
The bright red blood flowed down the tree trunks and seeped into the black soil. The smell of blood filled the windless forest.
The battle had just ended and a group of people sat on the ground, gasping for breath and recovering their strength.
"It turns out that killing these tree monsters can also trigger violent abilities."
"Yeah, I earned 10 points this time, which is a good harvest."
"There are still three hours left before the deadline. Let's not rush to the middle of the forest. Let's hunt more tree monsters and mountain monkeys to accumulate enough points."
"You can also hunt down guys with lawful professions. By the way, there are no taboos. I know there is a monkey king in the outer layer. Let's
Let's hunt together. With you and Hajime here, plus us, there are twelve of us in total. We can kill even a saint."
A few rough men chattered incessantly and simultaneously turned their eyes to the two leaders standing there.
He is a demon who has no taboos and is a seductive demon. He is about twenty-six years old, with regular features, sharp brows, and a strong and sturdy aura. However, his dress does not match this aura at all.
Black T-shirt, patterned shorts, and flip-flops.
It doesn't look like an adventure, but more like a vacation.
Ayi is a handsome boy with a blank and cold look in his eyes, like a robot, or...
...a beast lacking in emotion.
The two groups of people met an hour ago, and after a brief discussion, they formulated a plan to hunt tree monsters to gain points, which has continued to this day.
Everyone’s points increased by at least 10 points, which was a great harvest.
"No taboos, what are you daydreaming about?"
Seeing that Bai Wu Jin Ji remained silent, a sturdy man asked dissatisfiedly.
"I'm looking at Yuanshi Tianzun's points." Bai Wu Jin Ji replied in a daze.
Hearing this, everyone was shocked and quickly opened the scoreboard.
Suddenly he breathed a sigh of relief:
"Hey, I thought Yuanshi Tianzun's points suddenly skyrocketed and he rushed to the top of the list."
"It's still 20 points, and it dropped one place to 23rd."
"Our Ah Yi has already scored 100 points. Is this Yuanshi Tianzun just a name for nothing? Didn't the Five Elements Alliance brag about him being a genius at clearing dungeons?"
"Haha, after hearing Elder Qianmian bragging about him at the summit, I thought he was very powerful. Now, after being thrown into the Slaughter Dungeon, his level is immediately tested."
"Whether it's a mule or a horse, you still have to take it out for a walk."
Everyone burst into laughter.
Bai Wu Ji frowned:
"So, do you think it's reasonable for Yuanshi Tianzun to be ranked so low? Do you think his achievements are exaggerated?
Can you promise Zhao Chenghuang the victory you boasted about?"
A series of questions brought everyone's laughter to an abrupt halt.
They stopped smiling and looked at Bai Wu Ji in astonishment.
Somewhere in the forest, a young man with two swords on his back was walking alone.
He stared at the void in front of him, with some focus, as if he was checking the standings.
"Something is wrong. Yuanshi Tianzun's ranking cannot be so low. Has he run into some trouble, or is he deliberately not collecting points?"
This is the umpteenth time that Jiuluoyu has opened the scoreboard.
He didn't pay attention to Yuanshi Tianzun at first, but as time went by, he found that collecting points was not difficult. He was surprised to find that Yuanshi Tianzun's ranking had not changed much.
There was a sharp rise about ten minutes ago, but that was all.
This is a very unreasonable situation.
"What on earth is this guy planning?"
In a relatively open valley, Sun Miaomiao, the Maoshan sorcerer, and Yuan Ting stood on the moss-covered green rocks and overlooked the battle in the valley.
Behind them are their corpses.
The rushing water flooded the col and formed a small lake.
On a rock protruding out of the water was Zhao Chenghuang, whose face was hideous after he transformed into a ghost. White frost spread along the soles of his feet and formed a thin layer of ice on the edge of the rock.
His opponent was lurking in the water.
——“I Am the Only One” ranked first on the list of independent cultivators.
Sun Miaomiao frowned and said, "His tool is indeed extraordinary. It can create a home field for water ghosts anytime and anywhere. It is not undeserved to be ranked first."
The Maoshan sorcerer beside him laughed and said:
"But water cannot affect spirits. With a powerful enough spirit servant, we can restrain this man. Zhao Chenghuang should be able to kill him."
The Night Wandering God of Taiyi Sect exchanged his spirit servants before entering the dungeon, and then through the telepathy between the spirit servants and their masters, they quickly gathered together.
A few minutes ago, they encountered the lone wolf "I Am The Only One". That guy was so arrogant that he wanted to hunt down the four Night Walkers by himself.
Zhao Chenghuang was delighted to see the prey, so he sent Sun Miaomiao and the other two away and fought the enemy alone.
Seeing that it was difficult to determine the winner in a short period of time, Sun Miaomiao looked at Yuan Ting who was in a trance and complained:
"Yuan Ting, this is a killing dungeon. You are always absent-minded. Did your brain get damaged in the training camp?"
Yuan Ting said painfully:
"Where is Yuanshi Tianzun, where is Yuanshi Tianzun......"
The Maoshan sorcerer and Sun Miaomiao looked at each other and whispered:
"This guy is crazy."
"Alas, after all, Yuanshi Tianzun owes him a blood debt!" Sun Miaomiao said, frowning:
"By the way, why is Yuanshi Tianzun's score so low?"
The Maoshan sorcerer shook his head and said, "Maybe he's run into some trouble." There was a hint of gloating in his tone.
Sun Miaomiao didn't respond. Her big dark eyes dropped as she stared at the rock at the tip of her toes, thinking to herself:
With Yuanshi Tianzun's ability, if he took the initiative to collect points, he would be at least in the top three. It is impossible for him to be so far behind. Is it intentional? Did he find something... It seems like he should find him to ask about the situation...
But he has been slow to accumulate points, and the members of the Five Elements Alliance must be getting very anxious now.
·····
Under a giant pine tree, "My fate is in my own hands" tilted his head, looking at the two people more than ten meters away, his black hair hanging down like a waterfall, and said:
“I met a climber and from talking with him, I discovered that there are two camps hidden in this forest.
"But from the precautions you provided, we can analyze that there will be contradictions on the billboards. So, the billboards are actually divided into camps? But this doesn't make sense."
The two people standing more than ten meters away were the muscular Tianxia Guihuo and the tone-deaf man with a feminine appearance.
The two sides had just fought a battle, and at the suggestion of Tianxia Guihuo, they shook hands, made peace, and sat down to exchange information.
People with real intelligence will not be dominated by the thinking of the camp. Even if they are in different camps, as long as there is no life-and-death conflict, it is a wise move to cooperate appropriately.
Tianxia Guihuo said calmly:
"First, we cannot be sure whether the contradictions in the precautions given on the signs are really contradictions. Secondly, the contradictions on the signs do not mean that there are camps among the signs."
My fate is in my own hands. After thinking for a few seconds, she said:
“That makes sense!
"I think Yuanshi Tianzun hesitated because of this, but we realized it too late and had already made our choice."
Tianxia Guihuo sneered:
"That's you, not me!"
Asano Ryo explored forward cautiously, walking extremely slowly.
The Night Walker behind him kept urging him: "Hurry up, you won't die."
The purpose of their trip was to find the signboard in the middle of the forest.
If you're not going to die, why don't you go ahead, bastard... Asano Ryo complained softly in his heart.
Behind her, in addition to the young night wanderer, there is also a tall and plump aunt; and a big sister with a delicate and flawless face.
After seeing that the Night Walker had companions, Asano Ryo gave up the idea of escaping.
If he keeps quiet, he might still be alive. But if he runs away, he will be chased and blocked by the three men. It will be a dead end, and it will be useless to show his spirit of hard work.
"Wang Tai, is your name really Wang Tai?" Asano Ryo asked as he walked:
"Why don't I see you on the standings?"
She kept looking for Wang Tai's name on the scoreboard, but couldn't find it. This girl doesn't seem to have much emotional intelligence... Zhang Yuanqing said calmly:
"What does it have to do with you?"
Wang Tai is a pseudonym. I believe that Fairy Peony has discovered it long ago. But a young woman is a young woman. She has been in the big dye vat of society, suffered bumps and has enough experience and mind.
Along the way, no one ever mentioned why Wang Tai was not on the standings.
Zhang Yuanqing didn't care about his pseudonym being discovered, because he changed his appearance, put away the props he used in the ring match, and imitated Fu Qingyang in his personality. Most importantly, his corpse was changed.
It is impossible for the Peony Fairy to determine his identity based on imagination and guesswork.
As they were walking, the Peony Fairy suddenly exclaimed "Eh!" and her face turned ugly.
Zhang Yuanqing tilted his head and said:
"What's the problem?"
Fairy Peony shook her head and said uneasily:
"I just feel like something is wrong. It's not that there's anything wrong with us, but Yuanshi Tianzun, he, his ranking is too low...
"He must have run into some trouble. He is an important support for our official walkers. Please don't let anything happen to him."
It had only been two hours since entering the dungeon, and the highly anticipated Yuanshi Tianzun was defeated by Zhao Chenghuang, the evil professions, and the folk cultivators.
The Peony Fairy couldn't help feeling anxious.
