Deep into the night, Jiang Chen was sitting cross-legged on a big rock. The chilly wind kept howling. The buildings in the courtyard were making a buzzing sound. Such an atmosphere was very scary, it could easily cause fear in one's soul and cause one to get lost.
However, Jiang Chen and Da Huang Dog had already adapted to it. They didn't feel the slightest discomfort. Jiang Chen's black hair fluttered along with the chilly wind. It was very dark here. One couldn't even see their own fingers, but the darkness couldn't stop Jiang Chen's bright eyes. His eyes were as bright as the stars. He was waiting, waiting for the arrival of his target.
Jiang Chen and Da Huang Dog had no idea about what was happening in the outer prefecture. It was as if no one knew about their situation here. This valley seemed to be completely covered by some kind of secret technique, cutting off the connection with the outside world. Although this wasn't a spatial zone, it was no different from a sealed space.
Da Huang Dog was lying there, his head constantly looking around. He knew that Jiang Chen was going to make a ruthless move tonight. He was going to kill that half-step Immortal Emperor living corpse.
* Hu Hu … … *
Midnight had arrived. Jiang Chen began to exercise his shackles. He shook his neck, making cracking sounds. In this gloomy place, any sound would sound horrifying and ear-piercing.
Jiang Chen stood up and moved his body. He knew that the living corpse was going to appear soon, unless there was no accident.
* Jie Jie … … *
Along with a burst of sinister laughter, the living corpse appeared once again. No accident happened. Just like usual, the living corpse would appear at this time, very punctually.
* Swoosh! *
As soon as the living corpse appeared, he immediately stretched out his sharp claws, aiming at Jiang Chen's heart. Both of them were old rivals, so there was basically no need to say anything. The living corpse had already attacked Jiang Chen habitually.
Boom …
Jiang Chen punched out with his Dragon Fist, tearing the void apart. This punch contained all of his energy and was enough to shatter a mountain. Jiang Chen didn't hold back with this punch and it collided with the living dead. The living dead was sent flying and smashed into a large rock. Because Jiang Chen's strength was constantly increasing, the living dead was no longer a match for Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen's body flickered as he once again used the Nine Phantom Wolves. His entire body was like a whirlwind, moving at extreme speed. In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of the living dead. Nine Jiang Chen's surrounded the living dead and simultaneously launched their attacks.
Pfft!
How could the living dead resist such an abnormal attack? One of its arms was torn off by Jiang Chen in an instant. Unfortunately, no one knew how long this living dead had been dead. There was no longer any blood in its body.
The living dead let out an unpleasant roar. Under the astonished gaze of Jiang Chen, the living dead leaped up. According to its previous habit, even if the living dead leaped up, the next thing it would do would be to continue attacking Jiang Chen, but this time, the living dead didn't attack Jiang Chen. Instead, it turned and fled.
Such a scene stunned Jiang Chen and Da Huang Dog, especially Jiang Chen. He had been fighting the living dead for half a month. From intermediate Immortal King to half-step Immortal Emperor, these living dead were killing machines. There had never been a situation where they fled, but now, this living dead actually chose to flee.
What surprised Jiang Chen even more was that when the living dead disappeared in the past, it would vanish without a trace, as though it had integrated with the void. But now, the living dead was fleeing with a destination, vanishing from the room ahead in the blink of an eye.
There were a total of three rooms in this courtyard, but because the rooms were incomparably dilapidated, Jiang Chen had never stepped into any of them. But now, Jiang Chen chased after the living dead without hesitation, followed by Da Huang Dog.
* Swoosh! *
Jiang Chen and Da Huang Dog's movements were extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, they had already rushed into the room. They saw the living dead leaning against the wall, staring at them with a pair of hollow eyes, emitting a cold light.
Then, the living dead smiled. That's right, it was a very strange smile. This was the first time Jiang Chen had seen the living dead smile.
Regardless of this, Jiang Chen only wanted to kill the living dead. He took a step forward and punched the living dead with his dragon fist, but this time, the living dead didn't even dodge, allowing Jiang Chen's fist to hit it. Just as Jiang Chen's fist was about to hit the living dead, the living dead's body suddenly vanished.
This time, it was no longer invisible. Rays of light appeared behind the living dead, forming a passageway. Then, the living dead vanished into the passageway.
Jiang Chen stopped attacking and began to search for the living dead's tracks.
"Little Chenzi, look, there's a mark on the wall. It's a mark of a network. It looks like a pattern."
Da Huang Dog's eyes lit up as he looked at the wall. It was the place where the living dead had disappeared.
Jiang Chen looked over, and sure enough, he saw a lot of marks on the wall. These marks seemed to have existed for a very long time, but he could still clearly recognize them. They were runes formed by some mysterious runes, and if he took a closer look, he would find that they looked like living beings.
That living being raised its head and roared at the sky. It raised its fists high, looking incomparably majestic. Although the living being's eyes weren't very clear, one could still feel the insufferably arrogant aura from it.
"It looks like an ape."
Jiang Chen said.
As soon as Jiang Chen's voice fell, the network began to tremble. Rays of light rushed out from it again, forming an invisible passageway with a very strong spatial aura. The passageway became clearer and clearer, but no one knew where it led to.
"It's the passageway where the living dead disappeared. So this is where the living dead really came out from. We didn't pay attention to this room at all. I didn't expect the real secret to be hidden here."
Jiang Chen said. Since the first day they entered the valley, he and Big Yellow hadn't paid any attention to this shabby room, because it was just too shabby. Who would know that the real secret was hidden here? If they had come here earlier, they would have definitely found the mark here. "Big Yellow, Big Yellow.
"Do you want to go in?"
Da Huang Dog looked at Jiang Chen.
"There's another world here, but it's definitely very dangerous. Today, it's obvious that the living dead deliberately lured us here. Moreover, this passageway was opened on purpose to deal with me."
Jiang Chen frowned. He wasn't a fool. Naturally, he could understand everything. He knew that his performance during this period of time had attracted the attention of the hidden forces.
"But the secret of this valley is here. If we want to explore it, we have to go in. But you can imagine how dangerous it will be."
Da Huang Dog said. Their purpose in coming here was to find the secret of this place. Now that the secret was right in front of them, it was up to them whether they had the courage to go in or not.
