Chapter 230
The passage of time has become inconspicuous...
Behind the crack was a translucent passage. The moment Cheng Hui entered, he felt his consciousness become chaotic.
The passage of time became inconspicuous, seeming to last only a moment, yet also a thousand years. He could only barely see the person next door through the translucent outer wall...
Um?
Cheng Hui tried hard to see clearly, but the hazy wall always blocked his sight. He could only vaguely feel that there were many people next door, and they seemed to be crowded together. The guy just now was visible to him because he was sticking to the wall.
What a pity...his face was squeezed and deformed, otherwise we wouldn't be able to see his appearance clearly.
Soon, he felt something solid under his feet. He came to his senses and found himself standing in an open woodland.
There was no one around and Lin Qingyang was nowhere to be found.
Cheng Hui: ...
As the natal Xuan corpse, there is an unbreakable connection between him and Lin Qingyang, but in this forbidden magic battlefield, that connection has become vague.
Fortunately, we can confirm that the other party should be safe, but we don’t know where he was thrown.
After confirming Lin Qingyang's safety, Cheng Hui began to feel the environment here.
The air was fresh and he could feel the spiritual energy around him, but for some reason, the spiritual energy here seemed to have turned into an inert gas that was difficult for him to absorb.
Cheng Hui was thoughtful. The difficulty in absorbing spiritual energy meant that once the spiritual power in the body was used up, it would be difficult to replenish it. All kinds of spells of cultivators required spiritual power. No wonder this place was called the Forbidden Demon Battlefield.
and……
Cheng Hui glanced upward silently.
Just now, when he tried to use a spell, a heavy pressure arose on his head, as if thunder was about to fall.
Cheng Hui rationally withdrew the spell, and the heavy pressure disappeared. Obviously, it is not impossible to use spells here, but it is hard to say whether you can still survive after using them.
He climbed to the top of a big tree and roughly identified the direction. He saw faint smoke rising from the southwest, so he decided to go there to see what was going on.
The Forbidden Demon Battlefield, the Forbidden Demon Battlefield, he has already seen the Forbidden Demon, so what is going on with this battlefield?
When Cheng Hui was heading towards the village chief, Lin Qingyang was trapped in a small space and unable to move.
His face was as gloomy as water. He looked up at the ball of light hanging high above him and said impatiently, "Damn it! I only have the Golden Core cultivation level. Why are you holding me here?"
The big ball of light remained unmoved, and Lin Qingyang suddenly became annoyed.
The moment he left the crack, he was pulled away by a huge force. He watched Ah Hui leave the passage and fall into the lush greenery. When he looked closely, he saw that the person had appeared in this small space.
This big ball of light seemed to be the embodiment of the rules of this Forbidden Demon Battlefield. People with too high a cultivation level were not allowed to enter the Forbidden Demon Battlefield. His current physical cultivation level was only at the late Golden Core stage, so he should have been able to enter. However, since he recovered his memory, his consciousness had grown stronger day by day, so that this thing mistakenly judged his cultivation level as too high.
This thing doesn't have very high intelligence. When Lin Qingyang showed both violations of the rules and compliance with the rules at the same time, the big light ball crashed. It couldn't judge whether to throw the person out, so it had to catch the person under its nose and analyze him slowly.
The moment he was caught by the big ball of light, Lin Qingyang knew that he could not beat him, even if his past self came.
No, a more accurate statement is that it cannot be fought. This thing is just an abstract rule. Who can destroy a rule?
Anyway, Lin Qingyang can't do it.
Lin Qingyang had a gloomy face. He could neither win the fight nor run away. Now he could only wait here dejectedly, waiting for the big light ball to analyze it carefully. Only when it confirmed that Lin Qingyang met the rules would it throw him into the forbidden magic battlefield.
Cheng Hui didn't know that Lin Qingyang was locked up in a small dark room. At this time, he was already very close to the small village. Suddenly, he jumped onto a tree and used the cover of the tree canopy to observe the crowd appearing below.
He was a little uncomfortable with the loss of his consciousness, and was almost hit head-on by someone. If it weren't for the zombie's sensitive five senses, he might have collided head-on with these people.
These people were in a hurry, with somewhat bitter expressions on their faces. Many of them were injured, and only a few of them had baskets on their backs, which seemed to contain some pheasants, rabbits or the like.
The man in the lead had a stern expression and a pair of sharp eyes that were very impressive. Cheng Hui just glanced at him a few times, but he suddenly looked in Cheng Hui's direction, obviously very sharp.
"Who are you!" he shouted, and the other dozen men immediately formed a circle and looked alert.
Cheng Hui raised his eyebrows, jumped down, and said hello to the very nervous men: "Sorry, I'm lost and was just about to climb up a tree to check the direction."
The sturdy man in the lead looked at Cheng Hui up and down in doubt. The doubt in his eyes not only did not fade away, but became even stronger.
Cheng Hui understood it immediately.
Too careless... He just jumped down from a tree that was nearly ten meters high. This was nothing for his zombie body, but in the eyes of these farmers, it might be considered an extremely powerful skill... Wait, although magic is forbidden here, there should still be some extraordinary powers, right?
For example, martial arts...for example, martial arts...for example, martial arts...
Cheng Hui's eyes lit up.
Well, what man doesn’t have a martial arts dream?
Back then, he was also the type who would hide under the covers with a flashlight and read martial arts novels...
"This...strong man..." The sturdy man suppressed his doubts and bowed politely, "Our Sanhe Village is nearby. If you have nowhere else to go, why not stay in our village first?"
"Brother Li..." A hunter wanted to say something but was stopped by the strong man.
Cheng Hui smiled and nodded: "Thank you very much."
It can be seen that these people respect the man called Brother Li very much. Even if some people disagree with his opinions, they will not say anything after he makes a decision.
Cheng Hui followed them back obediently. It was obvious that these villagers were very wary of his presence.
Cheng Hui chatted with Brother Li in a casual manner. Since both parties were interested, they learned a lot about the situation.
Sanhe Village, where they were about to go, belonged to Xixuan County, which was one of the seven counties of Fengyu Kingdom.
There are many countries on this continent, and Fengyu Kingdom's national strength can only be ranked as medium, so it can only occupy this kind of border land.
Cheng Hui nodded thoughtfully. These hunters were native locals and it would be difficult for them to leave their homeland unless there was another opportunity. It was beyond his expectation that Brother Li knew so much.
When they arrived at the village entrance, Brother Li separated from several other hunters. He warmly invited Cheng Hui to live in his house, and Cheng Hui gladly agreed.
After the two left, several hunters looked at each other. Finally, the hunter who had tried to stop Brother Li from bringing Cheng Hui back said, "I'm going to talk to the village chief first. You guys go back first. Don't tell anyone about what happened today."
Everyone agreed and went home with their prey, while the hunter walked towards the village chief's house.
He had a frown on his face. There had been fewer prey in the forest recently, and they were wondering what was going on. Today, they actually encountered a tiger in the mountains. The tiger was quite big. With so many people besieging it, and nearly half of them were injured, they still couldn't stop the tiger, and it ran away.
What was most worrying was that while tracking the tiger, they also found traces left by a group of wild boars. They were injured and if they encountered a group of wild boars, they would probably be left in the mountains. They had no choice but to give up.
Whether it is a tiger or a group of wild boars, they will pose a threat to the safety of the village. What they fear most is that the wild boars will rush down and destroy the crops. The autumn harvest is about to begin. If they really destroy the fields, their lives will be difficult.
Thinking of the man brought back by Brother Li, Wu Feng's eyebrows were almost wrinkled. He didn't understand why Brother Li wanted to bring back such a man of unknown origin at this time.
I hope everything is fine, Wu Feng thought silently.

On the other side, Brother Li had already brought Cheng Hui back home. As soon as Cheng Hui entered the house, he smelled a familiar stench... Well, it was definitely a single man's house.
Brother Li looked at the dirty and messy bed, laughed embarrassedly, tidied it up in a hurry, opened the window to ventilate, and finally made the house presentable.
Cheng Hui sat at the table, quietly looking at Brother Li. Brother Li attentively poured him a bowl of water. Then, under his gaze, he rubbed his hands awkwardly and asked softly, "Mr. Cheng, are you from another world?"
Cheng Hui: Hmm...hmm?
He raised his eyebrows, "Brother Li, why do you ask that?"
Brother Li waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, I don't deserve to be called Brother Li, just call me Brother Li."
Cheng Hui readily changed his tone and said, "Then how did Brother Li figure that out?"
Old Li chuckled, "It's not that Old Cheng has any flaws. If it were anyone else, they probably wouldn't have thought of this. But I, Old Li, just retreated from the bloody battlefield two years ago. I still remember hearing a few people from other worlds discussing that in two years, the portal would open, and many companions would enter here again."
"Bloody battlefield?" Cheng Hui noticed this word.
The expression on Old Li's face suddenly became serious. "That's right, the bloody battlefield. I know that the purpose of you people from another world coming here is to participate in the bloody battlefield, and I am very grateful for that. It is your presence that helps us maintain the front line. If not, I am afraid we would have perished in the devil's mouth long ago."
Cheng Hui: ...
Not really?
He was now completely filled with question marks. Uncle Gui's introduction to the Forbidden Demon Battlefield was rather vague at first, and he would always use the excuse of "you'll know later" to evade him. But there was nothing he could do if Uncle Gui didn't say anything. Besides... he had a vague feeling that Uncle Gui didn't mean to keep silent on the matter, but rather that he was restricted by certain circumstances and couldn't say more.
Originally, he was completely confused about this place, but unexpectedly, he met a 'novice mentor'.
He didn't know what the Bloody Battlefield was, but since this place was called the Forbidden Magic Battlefield, he had already experienced the meaning of the word "Forbidden Magic", so this Bloody Battlefield was probably the place where he needed to fight.
From Lao Li's mouth, he learned a lot about the bloody battle on the battlefield, and also understood why Lao Li, a hunter in the village, knew so much.
He used to be a personal guard under the command of the King of Zhennan of Fengyu Kingdom, and he followed the King of Zhennan to guard the bloody battlefield for a year.
Don't underestimate this year. Anyone who can survive a year on a battlefield of such intensity can be considered an elite from any perspective.
