"Natural defense mechanism?"
Jiang Chen's eyes lit up, as if he had just seen a glimmer of hope. In the depths of Inferno Hell, there were many invisible natural defense mechanisms and formations, and they had entered this devil cave by entering one of them. If there were other natural defense mechanisms, they would have a chance of escaping from the Combat Soul Evil Devil.
"Let's go!"
Jiang Chen dared not hesitate. The gigantic creature behind them was extremely ferocious, and once it caught up to them, they would die a horrible death.
Swoosh!
Both Jiang Chen and Da Huang Dog increased their speed to the maximum, crazily running toward the valley. Da Huang Dog's wings of light were extremely fast, and Jiang Chen also had the wings of the Blood Winged Hawk. Furthermore, with the help of the Dimensional Shift and the Nine Phantom Wolves, he was one of a kind when it came to escaping.
Rumble …
Behind them, the Combat Soul Evil Devil kept unleashing its attacks. Jiang Chen was nearly severely injured a few times, and the blood and Qi in his body were tumbling about, causing him to feel extremely uncomfortable. If they continued running at this speed, the Combat Soul Evil Devil would catch up to them sooner or later.
Luckily, the valley wasn't too far away. Soon, Jiang Chen and Da Huang Dog could see it.
The aura of a natural defense mechanism in the valley was very obvious, and even Jiang Chen could sense it. This aura was much clearer than the invisible formation between the two big trees.
Without hesitation, Jiang Chen and Da Huang Dog immediately ran into the valley. Following the aura of the natural defense mechanism, they arrived in front of a shabby cave.
"The defense mechanism is right at the entrance of the cave."
Da Huang Dog said.
Roar!
Behind them, the Combat Soul Evil Devil crazily chased after them while emitting a tremendous devilish energy.
"Let's go in."
Jiang Chen gritted his teeth. He didn't care what was behind the defense mechanism. If they went in, they would still have a chance to survive. If they didn't, they would definitely be killed by the Combat Soul Evil Devil.
Jiang Chen and Da Huang Dog rushed towards the entrance of the cave. The air at the entrance rippled, and in the blink of an eye, one man and one dog disappeared.
Seeing this, the Combat Soul Evil Devil stopped its gigantic body. It walked two rounds in front of the cave, then a prideful smile emerged on its face. After that, it turned around and left. It didn't crazily rush into the cave and continue chasing after Jiang Chen.
Shua!
After Jiang Chen and Da Huang Dog entered the Restrictive Spell, the scene changed again. Everything in front of them was grey and gloomy, and the gloomy atmosphere was even denser than outside.
The air was filled with a pungent stench. Apart from that, there were also black hurricanes appearing one after another. The air was filled with a bone-chilling coldness and a powerful corrosive force.
"Damn, what a terrible environment."
Da Huang Dog couldn't help but curse.
"Be careful, this place is filled with poisonous miasma. The combination of the pungent poisonous gas and the bone-chilling miasma forms a very frightening poisonous miasma. If it's an ordinary warrior, once this poisonous miasma enters his or her body, he or she will die for sure."
Jiang Chen reminded.
"This poisonous miasma is useless to me."
Da Huang Dog walked in the poisonous miasma, and he didn't seem to care about it at all. Jiang Chen couldn't help but give him a thumbs up. At the same time, he recalled how he attacked Da Huang Dog with the Green Hellish Python's poison, but Da Huang Dog was completely fine. This proved that Da Huang Dog wasn't afraid of poison at all. As for the poisonous miasma in this place, Da Huang Dog's Divine Beast bloodline, the Dragon Horse bloodline, was the nemesis of all poisonous miasma. This was the unique advantage Da Huang Dog had.
Not to mention Jiang Chen, he was immune to all kinds of poison. Furthermore, Jiang Chen immediately unleashed a red flame barrier around his body. The True Dragon Flame of extreme Yang had prevented the poisonous miasma from getting close to him.
After that, Jiang Chen and Da Huang Dog looked around, and they found that this place was filled with fog. There was nothing else in this place; no mountains, no flowers, no trees.
"Look, the defense mechanism hasn't disappeared."
Da Huang Dog turned around and found that the invisible defense mechanism was still behind them. It hadn't disappeared like before, but he couldn't see what was happening outside through it.
"The defense mechanism hasn't disappeared, I'm sure it's still a devil cave outside. Let's move forward and look for a new exit."
Jiang Chen said.
"Why didn't that Combat Soul Evil Devil chase after us?"
Da Huang Dog was puzzled.
"I'm guessing that Evil Devil knows about the situation here, and it thinks we're going to die if we enter this place. That's why it didn't chase after us."
Jiang Chen said. The environment here was extremely harsh, and if any ordinary man came here, he would definitely die.
"I think this place is an independent space, and it's not a big one. We just need to find another exit, and we'll be able to leave this place."
Jiang Chen said. He could tell that this place was a unique natural space, and it was filled with poisonous miasma. It could be said that this place was a natural death zone, and whoever accidentally entered this place would be extremely unlucky.
Jiang Chen was protected by the flame barrier, and Da Huang Dog was following behind him as if nothing had happened. A man and a dog were slowly walking forward. Since the poisonous miasma in this place was too strong, there weren't any demons or devils around.
The entire place was extremely quiet. Apart from the whistling sound of the hurricane, there was no other sound. The entire place was extremely gloomy, and it made them feel like they had entered hell.
Swish!
Suddenly, a cracking sound could be heard from underneath Da Huang Dog's feet. It sounded extremely ear-piercing in this environment.
"Damn it, what the hell was that?! This master dog was scared to death!"
Da Huang Dog immediately jumped up and moved to the side. He and Jiang Chen lowered their heads and looked down. What they saw was a complete skeleton on the ground. Da Huang Dog's kick just now had created a hole in the skeleton's chest.
"This is the skeleton of a Divine Core warrior. I have no idea how long he has been dead, his bones are all loose, and you just stepped on it and crushed it."
Jiang Chen had great eyesight. Although the skeleton had been corroded by the poisonous miasma and had turned completely black, Jiang Chen could still tell with just a single glance that this was the skeleton of a Divine Core warrior.
"Even a Divine Core warrior died here, looks like it won't be easy to find the exit."
Da Huang Dog said. A Divine Core warrior could at least stay in this Poisonous Miasma Space for some time. The only explanation for his death was that he had used up all his Yuan energy to resist the poisonous miasma, and knew he couldn't resist it any longer. The poisonous miasma invaded his body, and he died tragically.
"When we came here, there was an exit. Although it's a brutal devil cave outside, in order to survive, ordinary people would still try their best to enter the devil cave. They wouldn't just sit here and wait for death. The only explanation is that we can't open the defense mechanism, and we can't leave this place."
Jiang Chen's expression suddenly turned ugly.
"You're saying that we can only enter this place, but we can't leave?"
Da Huang Dog's expression turned serious as well.
"I really hope that's not the case, but I really can't find a reason why a Divine Core warrior died in here."
Jiang Chen smiled. A determined look emerged in his eyes as he said, "Let's go, let's keep moving forward."
The rest of the journey made Jiang Chen and Da Huang Dog feel completely disheartened. They would see a skeleton every once in a while, and all of these skeletons were left behind by Divine Core warriors.
In other words, none of the warriors who accidentally entered this space could leave this place alive. All of them had died in this place. This was a land of death.
"Damn it, this is a land of death! No wonder that Evil Devil didn't chase us here, it looks like it knows how dangerous this place is."
Da Huang Dog cursed, "All those who came here are dead. Luckily, we're not afraid of the poisonous miasma here. If not, we would have ended up like these people."
"We still have to find a way to leave this place. If we're trapped here for the rest of our lives, it's no different than being dead."
Jiang Chen furrowed his brows as he continued walking forward. Now, he was almost certain that there wouldn't be any powerful demons or devils here, and he didn't have to worry about being attacked.
The man and dog walked for about an hour, and during this time, they saw many skeletons. It was a sad scene.
"Look, there's a bright light in front of us."
Da Huang Dog suddenly said.
"It's a defense mechanism, that's the exit, let's go."
Jiang Chen saw the bright light as well. Although the colorful light was weak, it couldn't escape their eyes. The man and dog immediately moved forward with great speed, and soon, they arrived in front of the bright light.
"Someone's here!"
Da Huang Dog's eyes lit up. Not far away from them, a man with messy hair was sitting on the ground with his legs crossed. He didn't move at all, just like a boulder. But, judging from the weak aura emitted from his body, this old man was still alive.
Jiang Chen and Da Huang Dog slowly approached the man. As if he had heard something, the man finally raised his head and looked at Jiang Chen and Da Huang Dog with a blurry look in his eyes.
It was an old man, a very old man who was past his prime. The robe he wore was very loose, and his face was filled with wrinkles. He was too skinny, just skin and bones, a frightening sight to behold.
The old man's aura was very weak, as if he could die at any moment. But, he was still alive.
"Sigh! Someone's here, someone's going to die again! Sigh! "
The old man let out two long sighs. His voice was extremely hoarse, and it sounded somewhat ear-piercing. It seemed like he had gotten used to seeing death in this place.
"A Combat Soul warrior."
Jiang Chen threw a glance at the old man and immediately found out his cultivation level. However, because the old man's life force was too weak, and he didn't have any Yuan energy left in his body, it was completely depleted. Therefore, Jiang Chen couldn't tell which Combat Soul realm this old man was at.
However, a Combat Soul warrior's Divine Core would have transformed into a Combat Soul. Therefore, Jiang Chen could easily tell if this old man was a Combat Soul warrior or not.
"Oh?"
The old man was startled. He obviously didn't expect a young man to be able to tell his cultivation level with just a single look.
"Not bad, young man. Too bad, you've come to this land of death."
The old man let out another sigh. After that, he turned his gaze to the glowing defense mechanism in front of him and said, "It's been ten years, and all those who came here have left before me. Now, I'm going to leave as well. Since there's someone who came here to talk to me, the heavens have been kind to me."
A smile emerged on the old man's face. He no longer had the despair and anger he had when he first came here. He had seen through life and death.
