However, Chen Shaojun just glanced at it and couldn't help but frowned. This man seemed modest, but Chen Shaojun always felt that there was an arrogance in his bones, which was exactly the same as the feeling that Princess Jiaoyang gave him back then.
"This is Senior Brother Shen Tan. He is ranked seventy-eight on the Mountain and River Ranking. He is also from our Martial Hall. He has been to the realm of the ghost clan many times, and everyone is very convinced of him."
From a distance, Zhao Yan immediately introduced him, obviously admiring Senior Brother Shen Tan very much.
"By the way, there are also senior brothers Zhang Quezhang and Wei Jinhe, both of whom you have met before."
Chen Shaojun turned his eyes and saw several familiar figures next to Shen Tan. Sure enough, they were Zhang Que and Wei Jinhe.
Almost at the same time, Zhang Que and Wei Jinhe also noticed Chen Shaojun who was walking with Zhao Yan. The two looked obviously startled, and then felt embarrassed. Speaking of which, both of them had been defeated by Chen Shaojun, which was not glorious. thing.
"Senior Brother Shen, Senior Brother Zhang, who do you think I brought here?"
Zhao Yan strode over with Chen Shaojun.
"Senior Brother Shen, do you remember that I told you before about Chen Jun, who is now very famous in the Martial Palace? This is it. I didn't expect to meet him when I was recruiting people outside, and Brother Chen was about to enter too. The realm of the ghost clan, so I pulled him over so that we could both take care of each other."
"Zhao Yan, what are you doing? Why did you recruit him here?"
As soon as Zhao Yan's voice fell, Wei Jinhe came over, touched Zhao Yan's shoulder, and said in a low voice. In the entire Xishan Hunting Ground, the last person he wanted to see was Chen Shaojun.
In the martial arts hall, he first put down his big words, and then he was defeated by Chen Shaojun in front of everyone. He is still ashamed of it. Now that he meets Chen Shaojun here, he feels really awkward.
"Haha, the matter has passed, why is Brother Wei still so upset? The affairs of the Martial Palace remain in the Martial Palace. There are wins and losses in martial arts competitions, and Chen Jun has the strength. Even Senior Brother Zhang was defeated by him. You and I It’s no surprise if we lose to him.”
Zhao Yan smiled slightly.
"Furthermore, we are all from the Martial Palace, and his strength is higher than ours. When we reach the realm of the ghost clan, with his help, wouldn't the advantages outweigh the disadvantages for us? At least compared to others, I think he is better. choose."
The affairs of the Martial Palace should be left in the Martial Palace. It is better to say that the matters of the arena should be left in the arena. This is a rule that everyone abides by. Compared to Wei Jinhe, Zhao Yan is extremely open-minded. Compared to being an enemy, , Chen Shaojun is obviously more suitable to be friends.
Wei Jinhe frowned and said nothing. He was still not very accepting of Chen Shaojun traveling with them, but even Wei Jinhe had to admit that Chen Shaojun was stronger than the rest of them. With his help, everyone's actions in the ghost realm would obviously become more and more powerful. smoothly.
"Are you Chen Jun?"
At this time, Shen Tan spoke. He looked at Chen Shaojun up and down and frowned slightly:
"Although I don't like you very much, since you were recommended by Zhao Yan and are from the Martial Palace, I will let you join for the time being. However, when you reach the realm of the ghost clan, you must listen to me in everything."
"Also, remember, don't be too arrogant. There are many masters in the martial arts lineage who are worse than you. The martial arts in local and state capitals are not as good as those in the capital. You are new here, so you need to learn to be more restrained."
Shen Tan had a preaching expression.
When Chen Shaojun heard this, his expression turned cold. His judgment was correct. This Shen Tan was similar to Princess Jiaoyang. They were both equally arrogant. Although it would be convenient to go down with Zhao Yan and the others, Chen Shaojun really didn't have to look at their faces.
Chen Shaojun smiled and was about to leave. At this moment, a palm suddenly pressed down on Chen Shaojun:
"Brother Chen, Senior Brother Shen is such a person. Although his words are harsh, there is no malice. Moreover, the people from the imperial court have already rushed here. This passage will be closed soon. Why don't Brother Chen go in with us first?" , if you really don’t want to, it will be the same if we separate when the time comes.”
Chen Shaojun remained silent and did not reach out to hit the smiling man. Although this Shen Tan made people unhappy, Zhao Yan was not bad, and Zhao Yan was right. Once inside, it would be the same if he acted alone.
"Um."
Chen Shaojun was silent for a moment and nodded.
"Wow!"
At this time, in the woods, the martial arts disciples who were originally gathered together in small groups and talking about something suddenly stood up, and almost at the same time, Shen Tan shook his sleeves and looked at the people in front of him:
"Okay, it's almost time. Before setting off, let me tell you something about the great changes in the Xishan hunting ground. Although some people died and many were even captured by the ghost tribe, the survivors also brought back a good person. The good news is that there are high-quality ghost crystals not far from this passage."
"Ghost crystal?"
Chen Shaojun's eyelids twitched and he was a little surprised.
"It's a kind of ore from the ghost world. Due to its structure, this kind of thing has little effect on ghost creatures, but it is very useful to us human warriors. Once you get inside, you will know it when you see it."
Zhao Yan lowered his voice and explained to the side, while Chen Shaojun's ears continued to hear Shen Tan's voice:
"I don't need to explain the role of the ghost crystal. Everyone understands that this time is limited. After we enter, the court will soon block the passage. It will be impossible to go in again."
"In addition, judging from the past situation of the imperial court closing the ghost clan's boundary passage, this passage will be closed in two days at most, so within two days, no matter where we are, we must rush back in time, and we will still pass through this passage and return Capital."
Shen Tan spoke eloquently, with a very familiar look on his face. It was obvious that this was not the first time he had taken such an adventure.
"I have prepared everything in advance. The ghost crystal disk can sense the energy of the ghost crystal and automatically indicate the direction. When you get inside, follow me closely. Don't be distracted. Follow my command in everything. Do you understand?"
Shen Tan said in a deep voice.
"Yes, senior brother."
Zhao Yan and others responded one after another.
"Okay, no problem. Now distribute the evil-avoiding pills, two pills to each person. The ghost clan's land is full of wind evil. Each evil-avoiding pill can last for one day. Two pills are enough for you to survive the time inside. Remember Stay, don't go too deep."
As Shen Tan spoke, he took out a small gray jar from his arms, popped the cork, and a unique smell immediately came out.
It can't be called fragrant, but it has an indescribable smell of burning wood and medicinal herbs.
"Is this the evil-avoiding elixir? These aristocratic families do have some background. I rarely see this elixir in Xiaxu. It's no surprise. They must have treasured this elixir for their own use. .”
Chen Shaojun said secretly in his heart.
Shen Tan quickly took out the inconspicuous little pills from the small gray jar and distributed them one by one.
"Take it, this is yours."
When it was Chen Shaojun's turn, the latter frowned but did not take it.
"Senior Brother Shen, isn't there two for each person? Why does Chen Jun only have one?"
Zhao Yan walked up from behind and said unexpectedly.
As soon as the voice fell, there was a sudden silence. Zhang Que and Wei Jinhe also noticed the movement here and looked over.
Shen Tan did not speak, but looked at Chen Shaojun with his head slightly raised.
But Chen Shaojun didn't move or take the pill.
"Hmph, the evil-avoiding pill is extremely precious. It's good to give you one. You don't think you are the same as them. I really give you two, right?"
Shen Tan said and glanced at Zhao Yan:
"The local state capital is the local state capital, and the capital is the capital. There is a difference between closeness and distance, and a bowl of water cannot be the same. Since you came from the Martial Palace, you must understand this."
"this--"
Zhao Yan lowered his head and fell silent immediately. Even if he reacted slowly, he understood that Shen Tan was specifically targeting Chen Shaojun. However, in his impression, Senior Brother Shen Tan was always fair and had never done this before.
"It's really aimed at me."
When Chen Shaojun heard this, he smiled calmly. Not surprisingly, this was not the first time he encountered this kind of situation. The black wind evil in the ghost clan's realm was indeed powerful. Shen Tan's evil evil pill might be useful to other martial arts disciples. It is extremely precious, but for Chen Shaojun, he is really not rare.
"Senior Brother Shen's wishes are accepted by Chen Jun. Senior Brother should keep this evil-avoiding pill for himself."
Chen Shaojun suddenly said.
"Chen Jun!"
Zhao Yan whispered:
"This is no joke! The ghost clan's realm is full of dangers, and the first one to bear the brunt is the black wind evil. If you enter rashly, you will definitely die."
"Don't worry, I have my own way to deal with the wind evil. There's no need to worry about me."
Chen Shaojun smiled.
"Humph, I don't know whether to live or die."
Shen Tan originally thought that he would be more or less hypocritical and cover up, but after hearing Chen Shaojun's words, he didn't even bother to cover up.
As soon as he closed his fingers, he took back the evil-avoiding pill and put it back into the small gray jar.
The evil-avoiding pills are extremely precious. Treasures related to the ghost realm are almost resources snatched by various aristocratic families. Almost all alchemists who can refine evil-preventing pills are controlled by the major families. Even if some are scattered outside, they are rare.
However, even so, the number of evil-avoiding pills is very small, and almost all of them are used by major aristocratic families to train elite disciples. One of the most important purposes of such adventures into other worlds is to train them.
Chen Shaojun was a stupid young man from a local state government. He didn't believe that Chen Shaojun had evil spirits in his body.
"Zhao Yan, since he wants to die, let him go. Why do you talk so much?"
Shen Tan glared at Zhao Yan, his words clearly showing a hint of displeasure.
Zhao Yan looked suffocated, his whole body trembled, and he didn't dare to say anything anymore.
"Okay, it's almost time, let's go!"
Shen Tan said, flicking his sleeves and walking forward quickly.
Behind him, Zhang Que and Wei Jinhe glanced at Zhao Yan and quickly followed. Almost at the same time, all the disciples of the Martial Palace also took steps and walked forward.
"Let's go."
Chen Shaojun patted Zhao Yan on the shoulder and walked towards the ghost passage.
Chen Shaojun didn't mind the little twists and turns just now. His purpose for this trip was to enter the realm of the ghost clan and then find a way to obtain the Shura Ghost Flower. As for the rest, no matter whether Shen Tan's character was good or bad, arrogant or humble, , it has nothing to do with him, anyway, when they get inside, the two parties will separate.
"Um."
Zhao Yan responded, a trace of apology flashed in his eyes, and he followed.
Phew, almost at the same time, a cold wind blew the snow and passed over the woods. In an instant, even the atmosphere became much more solemn.
As Chen Shaojun looked around, he saw many children from aristocratic families looking nervous and excited.
"It should be their first time going to the ghost realm like me."
Chen Shaojun said secretly in his heart.
Suppressing the thoughts in his mind, Chen Shaojun followed the others and walked forward. After about a few hundred feet, Chen Shaojun finally saw the passage leading to the ghost clan's realm.
At the bottom of a steep cliff, a swirling passage appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
