Chapter 41: I'm more afraid of death than you, Battle in the Underground Palace
Li Mengning was a little confused, as if she didn't know how Jiang Lan knew about it, and she was also confused as to why he agreed so quickly, but she still nodded, "Okay."
Then she set off, planning to rush forward.
However, as if she thought of something, she suddenly stopped moving and turned to look at Jiang Lan with a serious look in her eyes, and warned, "Promise me, you are not allowed to run around."
Jiang Lan wondered why she suddenly became smart again, but she still agreed, "Okay, I promise you."
Li Mengning still looked at him worriedly, and then reminded him, "Stay where you are and don't run around."
"I'm much more afraid of death than you are."
Jiang Lan smiled, reached out and took out a jade talisman that was still warm from his arms, then grabbed her soft and boneless jade hand and placed it in her palm, "Be careful."
Li Mengning suddenly stared at his actions in a daze.
It was not until I came to my senses that I saw Jiang Lan had found a bare rock and was sitting there with his eyes closed to rest.
She pursed her delicate red lips, and waves of emotions surged in her clear, glass-like eyes.
Then she clenched her jade hand, carefully put away the jade talisman, and regained her calm expression.
Although she knew that this jade talisman was given to her by Jiang Lan to save her life...
But it was a gift from him after all.
After making sure that Li Mengning had really left and did not turn back halfway, Jiang Lan slowly opened his eyes and stood up from the rock.
This place was not far from the group of tombs that he had sensed.
It’s not that he is so skilled and bold that he doesn’t need Li Mengning’s protection.
But in this area, he clearly felt that he had more means at his disposal than Li Mengning.
It would be much more convenient for me to do things if she was not around.
Buzz!!! As Jiang Lan's gaze fell, the blood-colored mist floating in the void suddenly shrank and gathered, as if it was tightened by a surging force.
Then it turned into a sharp blade after another, and then with a puff, it directly pierced through the rock wall on the side, and then exploded with a bang, turning into rock fragments all over the sky.
As his mind moved again, more and more blood-colored mist gathered, and astonishing energy filled it, and the void was humming faintly.
"Under the unexpected attack, cultivators who are covered in the Qi of the Heaven and Earth and do not have their own armor will be seriously injured or even killed..."
"This blood-colored mist not only contains a dense poisonous miasma, but it can also block spiritual consciousness."
"As long as a wound is left, I can manipulate this blood-colored mist to destroy its vital organs from the inside."
Unless you meet a practitioner who practices body training, he has a strong physique and surging vitality.
Otherwise, ordinary practitioners would have no way to deal with such an unsolvable method.
After leaving this place, Jiang Lan went deeper into the area that he perceived.
On the way, he took the lives of several monsters and determined the situation of this area through their memories.
With his deliberate avoidance, even though many areas here were full of dangers, it was as easy as walking on flat ground, and no unexpected situations occurred.
Bang……
After a cup of tea, as all the vitality of the bull-headed monster in front of him disappeared, its huge body quickly dried up and decayed, and even its corpse turned into a pile of sand-like substance and disappeared.
“So it’s here…”
Jiang Lan frowned slightly and appeared in front of a broken corridor that was becoming increasingly darker.
The steep peaks on both sides had collapsed, blocking the way ahead.
If he had not absorbed the memories of the monsters here, he would not have known that there was such a shortcut here.
The corridor was very narrow at first, only accommodating one person. After walking more than ten steps, it suddenly became clear.
Jiang Lan absorbed the life of those weak monsters hiding in the dark tunnel. Through their memories, he quickly understood the distribution of the deep tunnel. After making sure there was no danger, he slowly went deeper.
The deeper you go, the stronger the hot and bloody smell in the air becomes.
The blood-colored mist was extremely dense, floating in the void like a layer of smoke.
As Jiang Lan's mind moved, a myriad of blood-red mist filled the air and covered him. A blood-red glow rose up, completely obscuring his entire body and face, making it hazy.
After walking for a while, Jiang Lan heard a sound coming from not far away.
Judging from their voices, they should be a group of young men and women.
He narrowed his eyes and absorbed a few wisps of blood mist here, but unfortunately this was not an individual with an independent life and could not provide him with complete memories.
However, a few vague shadows can still be seen faintly.
"This turned out to be an underground palace..."
"During this period, the abnormal movements in the Bloody Plateau have become more and more serious. Some monsters living nearby often go berserk and attack the surrounding villages, towns and cities for no reason. Master suspects that some kind of abnormal change has occurred in the Bloody Plateau..."
"That's why I was asked to come and investigate the reason."
"After all, our Wanfa Sect is the largest sect in Danzhou County. How can we sit idly by and watch such a situation?"
"My fellow Taoist brothers are so chivalrous and brave, and I admire you for helping the people. To be honest, I am just a casual cultivator. I heard that there are many opportunities in the Bloody Plateau recently, so I came here to try my luck. If I hadn't been saved by you, I would have died in the mouth of the monster..."
The man who was speaking at this moment was wearing a navy blue robe. His face was firm and slightly darkened, his features were regular, and he habitually touched his nose while smiling bitterly.
"Brother Ye Ming, you are too modest. Your strength is obvious to all. If it weren't for your timely help, we would have died at the hands of the monsters. How could we have come to this underground palace?"
A burly man dressed in the uniform of a Wanfa Sect disciple smiled brightly, patted him on the shoulder, and looked like he had a liking for him.
Ye Ming?
The guy who inherited the Blood Immortal Sect?
Jiang Lan was slightly surprised. He didn't expect this guy to be here.
This could explain why, before the Blood Immortal Sect's ruins appeared in the plot, the Bloody Plateau had been searched almost thoroughly by all the sects, but nothing related to the Blood Immortal Sect's heritage had been seen.
He was still wondering if there was something wrong with the plot. Now it seemed that Ye Ming had already inherited the Blood Immortal Sect but had concealed it.
Even when he was later found by the remnants of the Blood Immortal Cult and told about the matter, he still concealed some things.
"Be careful."
"It's a blood-marked bat demon..."
At this time, the sound came again from not far away, as if someone screamed, and then there was a sound of fierce fighting.
Jiang Lan was at a distance and in the corridor, so he could only hear the rustling sound of the wings, but it was also obvious that there were quite a few blood-patterned bat monsters.
Once social monsters appear, they will definitely appear in a large group.
He had no intention of watching the show here. As he walked deeper into the corridor, the sounds of fighting and killing over there gradually faded away from him.
But Jiang Lan hadn't walked for long when he suddenly felt the stone wall beside him rumble, and then it was pushed open by a huge force.
Several figures covered in blood came flying, their bodies crashed into the stone wall and were directly submerged in it, as if they had fainted.
"A sneak attack? I know that Ye Ming is not a good person."
Jiang Lan's eyes moved slightly, and he looked at the figures falling in front of him, blocking his way, and kicked them directly.
But before he could land the kick, one of the figures suddenly turned sideways and rolled to the side in a very embarrassed manner.
"Brother Ye Ming, why did you suddenly kill us for no reason?" An angry voice came from a distance.
At the same time, several streams of light quickly rushed towards Jiang Lan.
Jiang Lan's gaze fell, and the thick and surging blood-red mist in the area immediately gathered and intertwined, transforming into a huge and solid blood-red hand, which slapped forward directly.
The void rumbled with great force and trembled continuously, and the entire dark underground palace seemed to be shaking violently.
The figures that were running towards them, before they could get close, all spurted out blood and flew backwards, falling to the ground like broken sandbags.
I launched it for trial this week. Please give me data and recommendation votes. Thank you.
