The luster on the deputy director of Qinghua retracted and turned into the appearance of an old woman in her eighty or ninety years old.
She said to the ten young students sitting on the back of the griffin: "There are many powerful beasts living in the Demon Ridge. Some of them, even if I encounter them, can only escape."
"The more you enter the depths of the Heavenly Demon Ridge, the stronger the wild beasts you encounter. If you enter the Heavenly Demon Ridge for training in the future, you must not break deeper. For you, there are many forbidden zones in the Heavenly Demon Ridge."
The griffin slapped his wings and continued to fly towards the Chikong Secret Mansion.
After half a day, I came to a deserted area.
It is said that when the human army fought against the four-winged earth dragon, the land turned into ruins, and no grass grew to this day.
Under the ground, a huge canyon that was thousands of meters long and two hundred meters wide was cracked, straight downward and bottomless, just like the mouth of the earth, which could swallow everything in the world.
Standing by the canyon and looking towards the ground, it was pitch black, and only a wisp of black miasma emerged from the ground.
At the edge of the canyon, a narrow stone staircase was dug out, leading downward to the depths of the ground.
It is said that the underground is the nest where the four-winged earth dragon once lived, the Chikong Secret Palace.
When the deputy head of Qinghua brought the ten students from the West Court to the top of the canyon, the students from the East Court, the North Court and the South Court were all standing on the edge of the canyon.
The deputy director of the East Courtyard laughed coldly and said, "Person Master Qinghua, your West Courtyard has come too late, but everyone has been waiting for you for a long time."
The deputy director of Qinghua clasped the wooden stick and staggered, saying, "On the way I came, I met a mysterious dragon, and I came one step late."
The deputy director of the East Court said: "According to the old rules, the order of entering the intermediate ruins must be in the order we came here. Therefore, this year, the students from the West Court are ranked fourth."
"No problem!" said the head of the Qinghua Vice-Chancellor.
The first student to come to the entrance of the canyon were the students from the East Academy, so the first student to be ranked tenth in the East Academy was to enter the intermediate ruins.
The tenth student in the East Academy is Dugu Lin.
Dugu Lin stepped on the stone staircase leading to the ground, used his body technique, and rushed toward the ground quickly.
About three minutes later, standing on the edge of the canyon, Dugu Lin could no longer be seen.
The tenth-ranked student in the North Court also entered the canyon and rushed toward the ground.
Next are the tenth-ranked students in the South Academy.
When the tenth-ranked student in the South Courtyard also disappeared underground, Zi Qian, the tenth-ranked student in the West Courtyard, walked towards the underground.
Students who take the Intermediate Relics Exploration Examination must enter the underground one by one. Moreover, students with low rankings enter first, and students with high rankings enter later.
The reason for this method is to avoid mutual killing among students.
After students of low-level realms enter first, they can immediately go to the depths of the Chikong Secret Palace or hide it.
If a student at a high level goes to the trap first, he may wait at an entrance underground and kill the student at a low level behind him.
Xun Guihai stood among the students in the East Courtyard, staring at Zhang Ruochen with cold eyes, without any concealing the murderous intent in his eyes, and was very angry, "Zhang Ruochen, what if you are engaged to Princess Yanchen? As long as you die in Chi
The Kong Secret Mansion, Princess Yanchen is already my woman by then."
He glanced at Guo Haidong, the fifth-ranked student in the East Courtyard next to him, and whispered: "Guo Haidong, you enter the Chikong Secret Mansion first than Zhang Ruochen. You can wait for him underground. Once he enters the Chikong Secret Mansion, you must do whatever it takes to do.
To kill him."
Guo Haidong got the five drops of half-saint true liquid given to him by Xun Guihai, and had promised to help Xun Guihai kill Zhang Ruochen.
Guo Haidong smiled confidently and said, "Senior Brother Xun, I am the 874th expert in "Xuanbang". It is definitely easy to kill Zhang Ruochen."
Xun Guihai said solemnly: "Don't be careless. Although Zhang Ruochen's martial arts realm is not as good as you, his sword spirit realm has reached the peak of sword walking with will. If you find that you are not Zhang Ruochen's opponent, try to drag it out as much as possible.
Stay with him, as long as Lang Xin arrives, you two will attack each other, and Ning Xiaochuan will be unable to fly."
Xun Guihai glanced at Lang Xin who was standing beside him.
Langxin nodded and said, "Zhang Ruochen actually dared to steal Senior Brother Xun's woman, that is he is against our East Courtyard."
Langxin ranked fourth in the East Courtyard, and the "Xuan Ban" ranked fifth hundred and eighty.
Duanju Starling stared at the students in the East Courtyard, narrowed his eyes slightly, and reminded: "Junior brother, after you enter the Chikong Secret Mansion, you must be careful of Guo Haidong and Lang Xin in the East Courtyard. They are both Xuanbang warriors,
He is extremely strong, and one is entering the Chikong Secret Mansion in front of you and the other is entering the Chikong Secret Mansion behind you. If the two of them join forces to deal with you, it will be difficult for you to escape."
Zhang Ruochen followed Duanju Starling's gaze and happened to see the two young students standing next to Xun Guihai, and recorded their appearance. He said: "It will be quite dangerous to enter the Chikong Secret Palace. Senior Sister Duanmu, you
Be careful too.”
At this moment, Guo Haidong, ranked fifth in the East Courtyard, walked towards the entrance of the canyon. Before walking down the stone stairs, he glanced at Zhang Ruochen, his lips curled slightly, and showed a cruel smile.
Immediately afterwards, the fifth students in the North Academy and the fifth students in the South Academy also entered the canyon one after another. Finally, it was Zhang Ruochen's turn.
As soon as Zhang Ruochen walked to the edge of the canyon, he felt a little dizzy, which was a sign of poisoning.
The miasma in the canyon was very powerful. Fortunately, Zhang Ruochen wore the poison-avoiding beads on his body and blocked most of the miasma. Otherwise, even if he just sucked into his body, Zhang Ruochen would faint on the ground due to poisoning.
Zhang Ruochen mobilized the Yujing true qi and ran a circle in the meridians. He immediately purified the poisonous gas in his body and recovered it.
Using the footwork of controlling the wind and flying dragon shadow, Zhang Ruochen's speed reached the fastest, like a spirit ape jumping on a dangerous cliff, running towards the ground.
It only takes three minutes, and in three minutes, Lang Xin, the fourth master of the East Court, will enter the underground.
If Guo Haidong, the fifth master of the East Court, is really waiting for him underground, he must get rid of Guo Haidong within three minutes. Otherwise, once he is attacked by two Xuanbang warriors, it will be for Zhang Ruochen.
, it will be quite unfavorable.
Although Zhang Ruochen was sure to defeat any of Guo Haidong and Lang’s hearts, who could guarantee that they did not carry a killer move?
Once you enter the Chikong Secret Palace, any means can be used, it is not as simple as a competition.
The canyon was extremely deep, and Zhang Ruochen ran down the stone stairs for more than a thousand meters, but still did not reach the ground.
Standing underground, it was pitch black around.
Zhang Ruochen looked up and saw that the entrance of the canyon several thousand meters long became only as big as a needle hole, emitting a faint white light. It gave people the feeling that it was like a dark night sky, cracking a very small white gap.
It gave Zhang Ruochen the feeling that he is now like he is being swallowed by the earth and will never be able to see the light of heaven again.
If a person with poor psychological quality is at this time, he will feel extremely frightened and even collapse.
Zhang Ruochen looked down and saw a dark red color appearing deep in the ground, and a wave of heat surged.
"If there are really many evil people and the devil is imprisoned underground, it will be a very torture thing for them.
Zhang Ruochen transported his true energy to his eyes and continued to rush towards the ground. The temperature in the air became higher and higher, and the rocks were very hot.
Fortunately, Zhang Ruochen bought a cold spirit ice soul in advance and hung it on his neck. Not only did Zhang Ruochen not feel the heat, but he was also very cool.
I don’t know how deep I got to the ground, but finally came to the bottom and a huge stone door appeared in front of me.
The stone gate is 130 meters high and 27 meters thick. The surface of the stone layer is inlaid with black iron, forming the form of an iron dragon.
The two huge stone doors weighed tens of thousands of kilograms, but now a two-meter-wide gap has been opened.
Zhang Ruochen pressed his palm on the stone gate, circulated the true energy of his body and pushed it hard.
The stone door does not move at all.
"What a heavy stone gate, probably only the Tianji Realm powerhouse in the Wushi Academy can push the stone gate."
Zhang Ruochen stared at the gap in the door that was only two meters wide, his eyes slightly condensed, and he became cautious.
"Domain of time and space!"
Zhang Ruochen released the space-time domain, covering an area of 80 meters. With the help of the power of the space-time domain, he explored whether Guo Haidong was hiding behind the stone gate.
A moment later, Zhang Ruochen discovered Guo Haidong's breath in the space and time.
Zhang Ruochen took out the Xuelong Sword, dragged the long sword, and walked into the stone gate.
"boom!"
As soon as Zhang Ruochen stepped into the stone gate, a red spear, with a hot wave of fire, stabbed Zhang Ruochen's back.
Zhang Ruochen had already been ready, and his body ejected, easily avoiding the attack of the spear.
He jumped five meters high and stabbed Guo Haidong in the neck with a sword.
Guo Haidong felt a chill on his neck, his face changed, he immediately withdrew his spear, quickly retreated, and narrowly avoided the sword that Zhang Ruochen stabbed.
After dodging this sword, Guo Haidong was still a little shocked and thought to himself, how did he know that I was hiding behind the stone gate?
Zhang Ruochen took back the Xuelong Sword, stared at Guo Haidong, and said, "That sword just now is a warning to you. If you still want to kill me, I'm not polite!"
Guo Haidong held the spear and put away the horror he had just now. He recalled what Xun Guihai told him. If he could not defeat Zhang Ruochen, he would hold him back first. When Lang Xin arrived, he would join forces with the two to clean up Zhang Ruochen.
Guo Haidong smiled slightly, bowed and said, "I am worthy of being the first in the fourth school. My martial arts cultivation is admirable. In fact, I just want to test your cultivation, and I don't really want to do it."
Zhang Ruochen could not see Guo Haidong's intention and said, "If you don't give up, I promise you that you will definitely not be able to walk out of the Chikong Secret Mansion alive."
Seeing Zhang Ruochen's eyes, the smile on Guo Haidong's face also disappeared. Although he was afraid of Zhang Ruochen's swordsmanship, he also had a trump card. Even if he was not Zhang Ruochen's opponent, it would be possible to hold Zhang Ruochen for a few minutes.
