The ancient ruins, located in the north of Dongyue near the Beihai, are one of the many forbidden areas that have remained due to some wars between gods and demons since the existence of Tianshu Continent.
The entire ruins occupies a huge area, and there is no shortage of treasures and materials inside. However, correspondingly, the level of danger inside is also extremely high.
Since opportunities and dangers coexist, it has been an excellent place for the various sects in Dongyue to send their elite disciples for training since a long time ago.
Even monks from the other three areas of Tianshu Continent will go inside from time to time to look for opportunities and treasures.
Precisely because so many people went there one after another, few people came out alive, and very few people were able to benefit from it and come back safely, unless they were powerful figures from various sects who could shake the earth just by raising their hands.
It is both a forbidden area and a dangerous place. Most monks would not even think about "taking a stroll" inside because they all want to live a few more years.
At this time, in a lush forest on the edge of the ancient ruins, Lin Jin and Chen Yang were walking slowly side by side with a coffin on their backs.
After the battle just now, Lin Jin felt some movement in the Dantian in his body. It should be that the bottle of cultivation was loosening.
Seeing Chen Yang gasping from exhaustion at the side, Lin Jin suggested: "Let's take a rest here. I think the Chen family's pursuers will no longer be chasing us."
"Huh, boy, what you said is right, they won't come after us, but it's not because we ran far away. Do you know the real reason?"
He placed the coffin next to the tree, arranged his clothes a little, then sat on the ground, flexed his muscles and said.
After listening to Chen Yang's words, Lin Jin felt something was wrong and asked, "Oh? I heard you say that there seems to be some other reason?"
After beating his legs, Chen Yang glanced at Lin Jin, as if he couldn't believe what Lin Jin said, and finally said: "This is already within the scope of one of the ancient ruins in the Dongyue Forbidden Land! Do you think they dare to chase in?
?”
This news seemed to explode in Lin Jin's mind instantly. Ancient ruins! This is no joke. With his cultivation level, he is still being chased by others, and now he has entered the Dongyue forbidden area? Isn't he a newborn sheep?
Has the cub entered the wolf's den?
Chen Yang's expression didn't look like he was lying to himself. Lin Jin looked up at the leaves and branches above and said helplessly to himself: "You are so lucky now... Then you, I feel like you have nothing to fear.
ah."
"I've already come in once, and it's only on the outside. Just be careful, but you can't stay too long," Chen Yang explained.
"Been here once? Hey, it seems you are quite courageous." After Lin Jin finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something and asked Chen Yang, "By the way, what is your coffin used for? It can't really be just
Used to bury people, right?"
Patting the lid of the coffin, Chen Yang said nonchalantly: "If you want to know, I'll tell you..."
It turned out that Chen Yang's uncle had been unable to break through the bottleneck of cultivation, and finally the time was approaching. However, he was not willing to die like this, so he asked people to find out that there was an evil spirit place in the outer area of the ancient ruins.
The energy of evil spirits gathers here and is extremely strong. His uncle wants to take advantage of the natural advantages of this place and add an evil method to prolong his life against the will of heaven and extend his lifespan to cope with the bottleneck of cultivation.
Hearing this, Lin Jin even had some feelings. Although he had seen through life and death along the way, when he really reached the point where he could no longer continue practicing, and when faced with life and death, he would still have the thoughts of a normal mortal - to escape, or to find another way.
And that coffin is a necessary thing for the evil method, so Chen Yang went to Jiantian Pavilion to compete for the treasure.
After understanding this, Lin Jin said: "Haha, since I shocked Fellow Daoist Chen just now, how about Lin Jin take the initiative to ask his colleagues for help this time to make up for Fellow Daoist Chen's dissatisfaction with me?"
Upon hearing this "frightened", Chen Yang immediately grimaced and growled: "Frightened? That's more than frightened? I almost died just now!"
After venting his anger, he thought that he was injured and would not be able to use the evil method to its full potential, so he agreed: "Well...but I am injured and I really need your help."
The dim surrounding environment made Lin Jin feel a little bit, as if he had returned to the time when he was training in the Sin Domain.
At this time, Lin Jin and the two were walking on a hill, surrounded by overgrown weeds, and some small evil creatures appeared from time to time. After seeing it too much, they became accustomed to it.
"If your uncle's body is placed in the place you just mentioned, you won't be afraid of being eaten by those evil things." Lin Jin joked.
Chen Yang, who was next to him, slightly lifted the coffin on his back and said confidently: "How can evil things enter the body when the poison I refined myself is scattered around? I might not be able to do anything else.
It's reliable, but now we are trying to save my uncle, how dare I be careless? You...are here."
After the hill is a small mountain stream. Looking deep into the mountain stream, I can vaguely see a cave. I don't know what is hidden inside.
As soon as he entered the mountain stream, Lin Jin felt a strong gloomy atmosphere. The further he went into the mountain stream, the thicker the gloomy atmosphere became.
What surprised Lin Jin even more was that the stone walls in the mountain stream were covered with all kinds of evil things. The continuous hissing sounds made people uneasy. Each pair of eyes looked at the two strangers who broke in. If they weren't just ordinary people,
The evil thing might have pounced on the two of them long ago.
Arriving in front of the cave, Chen Yang slowly lowered the coffin, which was facing the entrance of the cave straightly.
Then he looked at the surrounding environment, made sure that there was no danger, and said to himself: "The location and people are all ready, but it's just a matter of time... It seems that we need to prepare quickly, otherwise all the efforts will be wasted if we miss the time."
"Since it is an evil method to extend one's life, it must be done in the dark. I can help you protect it." Lin Jin said when he saw Chen Yang looking around but not taking any action.
"We have to wait until midnight, when the Yin Qi is the heaviest, and that is the best time to offer sacrifices. Now we can only wait."
Hearing what Chen Yang said, Lin Jin had no choice but to nod. At this moment, a centipede as thick as three fingers crawled onto Lin Jin's shoes. It had nearly twenty pairs of incredibly long legs.
After a while, the centipede seemed to be about to attack Lin Jin. The front legs began to dance, and in conjunction with the mouth that opened and closed from time to time, it really seemed like it was showing its teeth and claws.
"Haha, it seems that this centipede wants to talk to you about life and ideals." Chen Yang smiled inappropriately.
Hearing what Chen Yang said, Lin Jin could only laugh it off. He suppressed his words helplessly and said, "Brother Centipede is challenging me. Naturally, I won't have stage fright."
As soon as he finished speaking, the true energy in his body was raised, and a force burst out from Lin Jin's body, instantly knocking the centipede away and landing just in front of the cave.
The most ordinary things made Lin Jin and two people feel unusual.
Because half of the centipede's body had already fallen into the cave, but it had no intention of entering the cave. It hurriedly crawled towards the crack in the stone wall next to the cave, as if there was something in the cave that scared it.
