He brought Nan Xiaoxiang back to Luoluo and Qingying. When Luoluo saw Nan Xiaoxiang, she was surprised and happily went over to greet her.
"Sister Nan! Why are you here too?"
"Luoluo, be good. Sister also has her own private matters." Nan Xiaoxiang touched her ears lovingly.
"But... Cangzhe Ancient Territory is very dangerous. It's too much for Sister Nan to go alone."
Luo Luo drooped her ears and couldn't help but turn her head and hold Chen Yin's hand: "Master, let's take care of Sister Nan."
...Hey, you little girl, why are your elbows pointing outwards?
You can't just assume a pretty woman is a good person. This woman is full of lies, there must be something fishy going on!
Of course, he didn't dare say this to her face.
"It's not that I don't want to take her."
Chen Yin spread his hands innocently: "She herself didn't want me to follow her."
"Maybe she's afraid that we'll follow her to the end, get greedy when we see the money, and snatch the treasure she wants."
Regarding this point, Qingying did not confront Chen Yin, but instead sneered in agreement.
Nan Xiaoxiang ignored the two people's strange expressions and just whispered to Luo Luo:
"Don't worry. Sister Nan is not as powerless as you think."
"Since it is a secret realm, everyone depends on their own chance. I can't stop your young master from getting his own chance."
Luo Luo uttered an "oh" and drooped her ears with some regret and disappointment.
Everything was ready. Nan Xiaoxiang turned around and handed the token to Chen Yin: "Thank you for your help, Master Chen."
Chen Yin was not polite either. He took the token and infused spiritual power into it.
A faint green light lit up from the token, slowly condensed into a wisp of green smoke, and gradually floated towards the secret realm barrier of the Cangzhe Ancient Domain.
"Let's go." Chen Yin stepped in.
Luoluo and Qingying followed closely behind. The last one, Nan Xiaoxiang, also hesitated, and finally stepped into the secret realm.
Less than half an hour after everyone entered the secret realm, a man holding a sword came to the entrance and looked back and forth.
"Not here?"
Ye Li's eyes shook and he sighed softly: "It seems that I am a step too late after all."
"In that case... we can only enter the secret realm and try our luck to find them."
To be honest, once Chen Yin and others enter the secret realm, it will be very difficult for me to track down their whereabouts.
If you are not careful, you may even get yourself into trouble.
Unfortunately, one step too slow leads to another, and now we can only take the risk and enter the secret realm before making plans.
As he spoke, he also took a big step with his sword in hand and stepped into the barrier.
(First update, my headache is getting worse)
123. Dark Road
There is a different world inside the barrier.
After taking a step into the secret realm, the originally picturesque scenery suddenly changed, becoming depressing and dim. Looking up, there was pitch darkness with no view of the sky. There were only some dim passages around except for the strangely suspended ghost lights.
"Is this... the Cangzhe Ancient Domain?"
Luoluo couldn't help but hugged her arms: "It's so gloomy... Luoluo doesn't like the feeling here."
"good."
Chen Yin stretched out a hand and protected her under his arm, and said calmly, "After all, the Cangzhe Ancient Domain is one of the most famous secret realms. What we see before us is nothing more than the tip of the iceberg of the ancient domain."
"Right now, the atmosphere just looks eerie and strange. We have to go deeper to find out what the real danger is."
At this moment, Chen Yin suddenly noticed that Nan Xiaoxiang behind him looked a little pale, and he stepped back unconsciously.
He couldn't help but ask curiously, "Miss Nan, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell after entering the secret realm?"
"No, no..." Nan Xiaoxiang shook her head in panic.
"I just feel that this place is filled with gloomy air, and I'm a little uncomfortable with it."
Oh? Chen Yin glanced at her with a half-smile.
"Oops, I forgot to mention that."
He seemed to remember something and sighed, "For countless years in the Cangzhe Ancient Domain, countless cultivators have died here in search of opportunities."
"After the death of those monks, their obsessions lingered and they turned into ghosts, which occasionally wandered around here."
Nan Xiaoxiang's expression suddenly changed.
"Although there is no threat, it does make people feel a little uneasy." Chen Yin pinched his chin seriously.
"You...are you telling the truth?" Her lips trembled a little and her eyes looked a little timid.
"what happened?"
Chen Yin said with a smile: "Could it be that Miss Nan is afraid of ghosts?"
Nan Xiaoxiang's face gradually turned red.
"Oh, what shall I do?"
Chen Yin was still fanning the flames: "Since Miss Nan is afraid of ghosts, won't she be unable to move an inch here?"
"How about this, Miss Nan, just stay here and don't move. When we come out, we can take Miss Nan with us. How about that?"
"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Chen."
Nan Xiaoxiang suppressed the fear in her heart, took a deep breath, and tightened her expression:
"I really don't want to trouble Master Chen any more, so we can just say goodbye now."
After saying that, she pretended to be calm and walked towards the road on the left.
Chen Yin was still waving at her from behind: "Miss Nan, walk slowly~ Be careful of the haunted cave ahead~"
Nan Xiaoxiang staggered, but stubbornly did not look back.
When her figure gradually disappeared in the passage on the left, Luoluo said with a worried look on her face: "Master, is Sister Nan really okay? I'm so scared for her, an ordinary girl, walking alone in such a dangerous place..."
"rest assured."
Chen Yin's frivolous expression gradually subsided, and he rubbed Luo Luo's ears calmly.
"She's not in danger."
"Why?" This time it was Qingying who asked the question.
"Because I have walked the same path she walked."
Chen Yin said calmly, "It's a dead end. And at the end is a scary psychedelic array. It's not threatening, but Miss Yinan is afraid of ghosts, so she will probably be trapped for a while."
"Let her stay in there for a while until we finish our business."
Hearing this, Qingying became more curious and couldn't help asking, "How come you know the Cangzhe Ancient Domain so well?"
"It can't be said that I know it like the back of my hand." Chen Yin shook his head.
"...After walking a lot, you get used to it."
Qingying didn't ask any more questions, but looked around: "Then where should we go?"
"right."
Chen Yin's gaze silently turned to the narrowest and most rugged passage.
“…the very end.”
-
The ancient domain of Cangzhe is much more dangerous than imagined.
Along the way, the three of them encountered various evil formation difficulties, strange beast attacks, traps and monks with ill intentions more than once.
But all the obstacles were easily pointed out by Chen Yin in a light-hearted manner, as if he had already known these things by heart.
Traps will be avoided in advance.
The hidden center of the formation will be broken without hesitation.
The habits and weaknesses of the ferocious beasts are also clear.
Even the places suitable for ambush and possible robbery monks were prepared in advance.
Under the leadership of Chen Yin, the three of them moved forward almost unimpeded.
Along the way, Qingying was more and more surprised at how relaxed Chen Yin was, and she felt that what he said was more and more credible.
He must have really been in the Cangzhe Ancient Domain, and it is very likely that he stayed there for quite a while.
At the beginning, Chen Yin would joke with Qingying Luoluo, talking, laughing and playing along the way to ease the atmosphere.
But as he got deeper into the conversation, he started to become a little taciturn.
His eyes seemed to be filled with fog that lingered all year round.
As the road went deeper, the number of monks seeking opportunities became fewer and fewer. Most people were unable to get through the extremely dangerous traps ahead, and those who could come here were already great monks with extremely high cultivation.
Many of them were dressed in rags and had unretouched looks. Both men and women looked a little crazy. It was hard to tell whether it was their obsession that supported them in continuing to pursue opportunities, or what else.
Several times, when the male monks saw Qingying Luoluo, they rushed forward like crazy, but were chopped down by Chen Yin's sword.
There was also a female monk who ran up to Chen Yin like crazy and started to undress as if she had taken drugs, but she was also chopped down by Chen Yin's sword.
The increasingly dark and eerie environment made Luo Luo feel a little scared. She couldn't help but curl up in Chen Yin's arms the whole time.
"These people..." Qingying couldn't help but speak.
"If you stay here for more than half a year, you will become like this too."
Chen Yin's tone remained calm, as if he was used to this kind of person.
Qingying stopped talking.
She was also becoming more and more scared of where Chen Yin was going to take her.
Because they haven't reached the end of this road yet.
It seemed as if there was no way to get there.
-
Later on, Qingying couldn't remember how long she had been walking.
The dark passage made it impossible to tell the passage of time. Qingying felt that she might have spent more than ten days in there, or even several months.
...even for many years.
When Luoluo started to cry out of fear, Chen Yin carried her on his back and comforted her to sleep.
After Luoluo fell asleep from crying herself tired, it seemed that only Qingying and Chen Yin were left in the endless darkness.
"We... haven't arrived yet?" Qingying's voice was already trembling.
Although she had thought that the Cangzhe Ancient Domain would be very dangerous, she never expected that the place Chen Yin was going to take her to would be so strange and terrifying.
There is nothing around anymore.
There are no monks, no traps or formations for ferocious beasts.
All that was left was the all-consuming darkness.
Qingying couldn't even sense whether she was walking or not. She was really afraid to stay in such darkness any longer. She didn't even know whether she was controlling her body or not.
...I don't even know if he's still alive.
Chen Yin did not answer her, but turned his head slightly: "If you are afraid of the dark, hold my hand."
Qingying hesitated for a moment.
She instinctively didn't want to grab the hand of this annoying guy. But in the endless darkness, he was the only one who could make her realize that she was alive.
She hesitated for a moment, then slowly stretched out her hand.
