The mountain spirit is dead, and everyone can pass here.
However, for safety reasons, Zi Chen signaled that everyone should recover from their injuries before moving forward.
Everyone present is a special being. Even if they are seriously injured, they can recover quickly.
Just as Zi Chen recovered from his injuries, Shangguan Hong stood up. It was obvious that she had used the vitality of those tree people.
Thinking of those tree people full of life again, Zi Chen couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart again, and then he saw the beast trainer silently dissecting those war beasts.
Zi Chen looked a little dissatisfied with this and frowned slightly.
He thought for a while and decided to step forward and said to the man in black: "Don't you think it's bad to do this?"
The man in black robe raised his head and looked at Zi Chen with a pair of bright but blank eyes, seemingly puzzled.
"They are fighting for you and everyone, but they are still allies. Isn't it unfair for you to treat them like this?" Zi Chen said.
"Fair?" The man in black robe spoke, his voice was very light, and it was also a female voice.
This was the first time she spoke, but Zi Chen didn't expect that the other person was a woman, and he was stunned for a moment.
The others were naturally surprised, and they all looked in this direction.
"Unfair? Are you talking to me about fairness? Is there fairness in this world?" Dong Qing, the man in black robe, spoke again, but this time there was a clear smile in his words.
She lowered her head again and continued to dissect these war beasts, appearing very focused.
"Not to mention fairness, they are one of our own after all." Zi Chen said weakly. In fact, after knowing that the other party was a woman, he regretted his rash meddling this time.
"I very much agree with this statement. They are my summoned beasts, and naturally they are my own people. But I have lost so many of my own people, and the losses have been extremely heavy. Shouldn't the losses be greatly reduced?"
Dong Qing's rhetorical question left Zi Chen speechless. In Zi Chen's heart, this sentence was completely fallacious. You can't just take action on one of your own people when you suffer big losses, right?
Although he felt that Dongqing was wrong, he still decided to remain silent. This was a good habit he had developed from dealing with women over the years. He would never argue or quarrel with a woman.
And from the opponent's point of view, this is correct. Just like Guanhong's tree people, taking away the things from the war beasts will give Dongqing more resources, and it is not a waste.
Zi Chen was ready to leave.
"I have seen you kill people, ruthlessly and ruthlessly! Judging from your methods, I am afraid you have already killed many people, but you are so kind as to intercede for some dead beasts, which surprises me. You are really a... strange person
!" Dong Qing chuckled, her voice was very pleasant, but her words seemed not very pleasant.
"Okay, I understand that you have suffered a lot this time. These are compensations. I hope you don't mind."
Huanlong came forward at this time. He took out five spiritual rings, walked to Zi Chen first, and handed one to Zi Chen.
Immediately afterwards, it was given to four other people.
After Dong Qing received the spirit ring, her expression did not change much. She was still focused on dissecting the corpses of these war beasts.
But she seemed to have thought of something again, and couldn't help but glance at Zi Chen, then stopped what she was doing, and turned to put away the corpses of these war beasts.
Except for talking to Zi Chen, she has been silent.
Shangguan Hong didn't speak either.
When Zi Chen saw the wealth in the spiritual ring, he naturally had a look of surprise on his face.
The wealth in his spiritual ring is worth one billion!
You know, the real spirit weapon he lost earlier was less than ten million.
"Hey, Huanlong, you are a rich man!" Manshi said after inspecting the spiritual ring.
Huanlong smiled and said, "Thank you!"
Huanlong got a lot of wealth from the last auction of things, so he doesn't care about money. What he cares about is whether people can take him to his destination.
Everyone's injuries recovered one after another, and then under Huanlong's instructions, everyone continued on their way.
This area is not big, and there is only one powerful existence like the mountain spirit. After the death of the mountain spirit, there is no more danger here, and everyone soon reaches the end.
After walking out of here, they encountered natural restrictions and formations again.
This requires Huanlong to hold the correct map to guide the way.
The formation here is very powerful. It can be seen that there are some natural and acquired ones. It can even trap the realm. Naturally, Zi Chen and others dare not step in at will.
Huanlong, who was walking in front, seemed to be very careful and cautious. He had to think for a long time with almost every step he took.
"It seems he is a formation master!" Zi Chen's message rang out, and it was Shangguan Hong's voice.
It took Huanlong a long time to break the formation, and Shangguanhong would occasionally send messages to Zichen during these days.
"His attainments in formations are indeed very high!" Zi Chen naturally agreed with this view.
"I'm very accomplished in formations, but I don't know how powerful he is in combat. I haven't seen him take action yet."
Shangguanhong's interrogation came up again, but Zichen chose to remain silent.
"By the way, I think Huanlong is very optimistic about you. The compensation given to me last time was 300 million. How much is yours?" Shangguanhong asked again.
Zi Chen thought for a while and replied: "One billion!"
"What, one billion? He really thinks highly of you, so I've done my best!" Shangguanhong pretended to be surprised.
"If you think it's unfair, I can give you some points! Or... I'll chop Huanlong with a knife." Zi Chen rarely joked.
"If you kill Huanlong, and you get the wealth inside, do you want to fly away with me?" Shangguanhong asked with a smile during the interrogation.
Zi Chen was silent again. In her heart, Shangguan Hong had always belonged to the category of femme fatales. Moreover, the way women grew up in this world also belonged to two different worlds from Zi Chen.
Perhaps it is the influence of the surrounding environment that makes their way of doing things revolve around resources, and there is nothing else except resources and survival.
But Zi Chen is different. In the Tianwu Continent where he grew up, such things as morality and kindness existed.
And most of the people he knows seem to be ruthless, but at some point, they will follow principles and distinguish right from wrong!
In the same situation, if it were Su Mengyao, Shangguan Yue'er and others, Zi Chen believed that these people would never do similar things.
They will cry when the weak die, they will fight against injustice for some people, they also kill people, and they are also very kind.
This seems contradictory, but it is not contradictory.
But in Zhanwu Continent, in the eyes of Shangguan Hong or Dong Qing, this world only has resources, and the same is true for other people.
…
…
People from Huping City and Hunter Castle have not been able to contact Zi Chen and others.
The last time they summoned Guan Hong and others was before they went deep into the Hengduan Mountains. Of course, this summons did not include Zi Chen.
Just when they were extremely anxious and sent many people to inquire, a man walked out of an inn in Huping City.
This is a man in blue. He is in the virtual realm, but his appearance is somewhat similar to Huan Long in the later stage of the real realm.
After he walked out of the inn, he walked towards the Hunter's Castle. He did not enter but stood outside the castle. He looked at the eye-catching sign above the Hunter's Castle and the crowds of people who were constantly entering and leaving the castle, and immediately sneered a few times.
"Peng!"
When he turned to leave, he accidentally collided with someone. The latter was a real person, and he immediately pointed at his nose and cursed.
In the midst of the real curse, he kept apologizing and then left quickly.
"Idiot, you fucking..."
The face of the person who was still yelling and scolding suddenly changed, and his scolding stopped abruptly because he saw a piece of yellowed and ancient-looking paper on the ground.
He glanced at the virtual being who was leaving in a hurry, immediately picked up the paper, and left quickly.
The same scene continued to be played out in various places in Huping City in the next two days.
There are many situations where they picked up a piece of yellowed paper, and then they took the paper away and found a secret place to open the paper quietly.
Although everyone chose to keep it secret after picking up the paper, the news still spread.
One word was passed to ten, ten to hundreds, and hundreds to thousands. In just two days, the news about a treasure map spread almost throughout Huping City.
Many forces began to send people to investigate, including the Hunter Castle, because there was news that the place where the treasure map was located belonged to the Hengduan Mountains.
Over the years, treasure maps about the Hengduan Mountains have been circulated from time to time, but there are no real treasures. The reason why Hunter Castle is paying attention is because of Zi Chen and others.
On the conference table of the Hunter's Castle, there is a yellowed blueprint, which clearly indicates the route of the treasure.
If Zi Chen and others were here, they would definitely be able to tell at a glance that the route guided by this map is their route forward.
Five days have passed, and the news about the treasure map has become more and more intense.
On the sixth day, some people started selling photocopied treasure maps.
This is a copy of a real map, exactly like the real treasure map.
In the army in the city, Wang Jun has been trying to contact Zi Chen for the past few days, but he has been unable to contact him. He sent people to the Hunter Castle to inquire, but the reply he received was that Zi Chen was in retreat and no one was seen.
Naturally, Wang Jun would not think that Zi Chen was in seclusion and not see him. He guessed that Zi Chen might have left Huping City and went to do a secret mission for the Hunter Castle.
Zhou Chong successfully found powerful allies.
The first criterion for him to find allies is that he is not afraid of Zi Chen after seeing the killing images of Zi Chen. Only then can he be qualified to join.
And during these times, he did find some powerful beings. Zi Chen, who was killing real-world monks like crazy, was simply a low-level clown in the eyes of these powerful beings.
After gaining allies, Zhou Chong approached Wang Jun to discuss the treasure hunt, but Wang Jun kept delaying.
"Brother, what do you think this is?" Heizi rushed in from the door with a piece of white paper of poor quality in his hand.
"What?" Wang Jun stood up and asked.
"It's a treasure map!" Heizi was handed the paper and said excitedly: "I spent a lot of money to buy it."
"Can I buy the treasure map? Heizi, you obviously..." Wang Jun took the blueprint and opened it casually, but when he saw the map recorded inside, he was stunned.
