Opening: Me, I become stronger when I am beaten!

Many villagers who were present just now were still surprised, and they quickly realized that this young man actually helped them get rid of the evil dragon that had plagued them for generations.

Then they also knelt down.

"Thank you, Young Hero, for your help."

Nangong Wenyue quickly stepped forward and helped the old man up.

"Everyone, get up quickly, this can't be done, it was just a matter of little effort."

With Nangong Wenyue's support, the old man stood up slowly.

At this time, Ye Chen suddenly asked: "As far as I know, this evil dragon doesn't seem to be a vicious person in the first place, it should be contaminated with evil spirits and bewildered."

The old man was taken aback for a moment, but then he nodded slightly.

He sighed deeply, and said: "In fact, there was another legend passed down by our ancestors. This dragon used to be a holy beast entrenched here. We can ensure smooth weather by multiplying by this river. Who would have thought that this holy beast suddenly Demonized, turned into a dragon.

Many people are unwilling to believe this statement. They are more willing to believe that the evil dragon was found from other places. After all, such an evil thing has nothing to do with the holy beast. "

Ye Chen immediately blushed, the statement they didn't want to believe was the one he thought was most in line with the facts.

In fact, Ye Chen had already felt the aura of this dragon when they first fought. During its evolution, many characteristics were left by the holy beast.

It's just that it was later invaded by evil spirits and reduced to what it is today, which is really a pity.

Compared with the cultivation of the human race, the cultivation of the beast race is more difficult. If this flood dragon hadn't had such an accident, if given time, he would have a chance to achieve a positive result.

It's a pity that unexpected changes ruined all of this.

Ye Chen was just a little curious about the evil dragon.

What happened back then, and where did the evil spirit come from.

He asked the old man, but he didn't get the answer he wanted.

In fact, the old man didn't hide anything, but there was very little information passed down from his ancestors. Everyone only knew the existence of such a scourge, but they didn't know the specific situation.

Of course, Ye Chen didn't continue to ask, he knew that these people knew nothing more.

The old man invited the two of them into the village and wanted to host a banquet, but Ye Chen quickly refused.

After bidding farewell to the villagers, Ye Chen followed the river all the way to the upper reaches.

Because there is always a hint of evil spirit here, the villagers here, and some low-level monks, of course can't detect any breath, but Ye Chen can catch it keenly.

There is no reason for anything, as long as you follow the clues, you can find some clues.

And things here are not complicated, and don't require a lot of thinking or reasoning, just follow the clues.

Perhaps too much time has passed, and the evil spirit has almost dissipated. However, the villagers here have not been affected in any way. Instead, the holy beast in the river has been demonized. The problem must have appeared in the river.

After confirming the goal, Ye Chen quickened his pace.

"Could the matter here be related to the Holy Demon Sect again?" Nangong Wenyue said unintentionally.

However, the next moment, she quickly covered her mouth again, for fear that her crow's mouth would be right.

"I don't know, but with the background of the Holy Demon Sect, I believe it's not what they did." Ye Chen said lightly.

In fact, in order to demonize a holy beast, the amount of demonic energy needed can be called massive, and the strength must be obviously higher than that to form enough crushing.

Otherwise, even if it is defeated, it will not be able to invade its soul. Even in the worst case, the holy beast at least has enough chances to escape here.

This is obviously not something that people from the Holy Demon Sect can do.

However, thinking of these, Ye Chen's heart became even heavier.

A power stronger than the Holy Demon Sect, which is a bit unbelievable.

If he really met such a strong person, he might not be qualified to compete with him at all.

"Huh? There are traces of the magic circle over there." Nangong Wenyue said suddenly.

Ye Chen stopped quickly, and followed what Nangong Wenyue pointed at, and there was indeed a pattern in the upper reaches of the river.

There is an invisible energy flow around here, and the stability of the formation has been maintained. It looks like a powerful killing formation.

However, it seems that this trapped killing formation has existed countless years ago, even in the same era as the ancient war of gods and demons.

"I have a feeling in my heart that there is a powerful existence sealed in this formation, but because of too long time, the formation is not as stable as before, and even the power to maintain the formation is gone. .”

Nangong Wenyue suddenly wondered: "Could it be that the people from the Holy Demon Gate want to break this formation? But they seem to have never opened here, but the source of the things that pollute the holy beast should be here. This must be someone from the Demonic Way." .”

At this point in the analysis, Nangong Wenyue fell into confusion. Her thoughts basically made no sense, and there was no new reasonable explanation.

In fact, Ye Chen didn't have a clear idea, and he was following the clues when he came here, and he didn't have a clear goal.

So now, how to choose has become a problem.

"I think the seal should be broken." Ye Chen said.

Nangong Wenyue frowned slightly, she didn't know what to do was right, but it seemed that she should obey Ye Chen's words.

When speaking, Ye Chen had already started to do it.

However, the formation technique left over from the ancient times is indeed as he understands, there is no formation point, simple and pure, it is really difficult for people to start.

Ye Chen was just trying to use brute force to forcibly break the formation. For some ancient formations, when there is no better restraint method, it is more reliable to use brute force.

"Wait a minute, I have learned some ways to break the ancient formation in the Nangong family, let me try it." Nangong Wenyue said.

Ye Chen nodded slightly, and stepped aside.

Then, Nangong Wenyue made several knot seals with both hands, and added a few more formation patterns on the basis of the original formation patterns.

In this way, the layout of the original magic circle has been changed, making it no longer stable, so it can do twice the result with half the effort.

Ye Chen has learned this trick.

Soon, the formation was broken, and an entrance to a magic cave appeared in front of him.

It's just that when the seal was broken, a black shadow floated out of it, like a specter formed by the condensed energy of evil spirits.

This phantom suddenly turned into an unstable energy, and charged towards Ye Chen at a very fast speed.

"Unbelievable!"

Ye Chen snorted coldly, and then punched him up, easily smashing the phantom.

Accompanied by a piercing scream, the phantom returned to nothingness.
