Chapter 259 Ancient Immortal City

"Roar--!"

On the bloody river with huge waves, a human-shaped skeleton with a height of tens of meters stood in the center of the vortex, and let out an earth-shattering roar.

Xiang Hong and Yi Jianfeng were standing on their respective oars at the moment, at the two ends of the vortex, both of them had expressions of surprise and uncertainty on their faces.

The aura of this giant skeleton is extremely powerful, and it has reached the peak of alchemy.

The two who had been preparing to strike with all their strength before, both retracted the magic weapon they had released at this moment, and did not dare to act rashly again.

The giant skeleton is located in the center of the vortex, and there is only endless deep darkness in a pair of huge eye sockets. After scanning around, it raised its head again and let out a loud roar!

"Roar--!"

Accompanied by this roar, the surrounding water violently tumbling, countless large and small dry bony hands stretched out from the water, waving aimlessly back and forth in the void, trying to catch all people or objects within reach.

These skeleton hands vary in size, the small ones are similar to normal human skeletons, and the large ones are several meters long.

Xiang Hong was terrified at the moment, how many monsters like this are there at the bottom of the blood river!

Fortunately, the skeleton hands around seemed to have any scruples about the oar under Xiang Hong's feet, no matter how they waved it, they would never get within three feet of the oar.

The tumbling river was agitated by these skeleton hands, and immediately turned into countless turbulent currents. Xiang Hong and Yi Jianfeng were washed into different turbulent currents, and each drifted far away, and the distance between them became farther and farther away. .

But the two always looked at each other with murderous intent in their eyes. They knew each other very well that the next time they met, it would be a life-and-death struggle.

Standing on the oar, Xiang Hong passed through the densely packed bones on the water surface like a dry forest, and gradually moved away from the giant skeleton in the late stage of alchemy.

"It seems that these things should respond to the monk's spiritual power." Xiang Hong muttered to himself.

Yi Jianfeng's sword was unusual before, and the double protection of the void shield and the moon shield could not completely block it. Xiang Hong had never encountered such a difficult opponent before.

That giant skeleton probably sensed the spiritual power leaked from Yi Jianfeng's sword control, so it appeared above the blood river.

At this time, the giant skeleton and the large and small bone hands around it gradually sank to the bottom of the water, and after a while, the broad blood river returned to its usual appearance.

Surrounded by waves of blood, no one could be seen, Yi Jianfeng must have been taken to other waters by the turbulent current.

Xiang Hong breathed a sigh of relief, this Yi Jianfeng was much more difficult to deal with than the previous Yi Jian You, that sword was extremely sharp, and Xiang Hong was really not sure that he could defeat this person in the confrontation in Xuehe just now.

And judging by the understatement of this person's attitude when he was wielding the sword, there should be more powerful backhands.

"This battle in the secret realm cannot be avoided." Looking at the gradually clear river bank in front of him, Xiang Hong said to himself, "We need to make some preparations in advance."

……

After crossing the Blood River, Xiang Hong entered the second half of the Thousand Peaks Secret Realm, and the land began to become undulating, changing from the endless plains to hilly mountains.

The strength of monsters in the second half of the secret realm has also increased significantly, and monsters in the alchemy stage have begun to appear. On the map that Yun Xiangrong gave Xiang Hong, the red marks representing "danger" almost occupied the entire area.

At the end of this area full of monsters and beasts is the Qianchongfeng mountain region, which is also the target of most people who enter the secret realm.

Among the towering mountains in the Qianchongfeng mountain area, there are many caves and blessed places, which can be used by monks in the later stage of foundation establishment to attack alchemy, and there are also the remains of ancient fairy gates, where a large number of exercises and inheritances are waiting for future generations to dig.

After all, there are only a small number of people who get the fairy fate in the end. Every time when the secret realm of Qianchongfeng is opened, behind the few people soaring to the sky, there are hundreds of monks who disappear forever in the secret realm.

Of course, every monk who entered the secret realm was full of confidence and felt that he was the one who soared into the sky.

Climb the peak, and then take a look at the mountains.

The Qianzhongfeng mountain area is protected by a huge ancient magic circle, and it cannot be entered through the air. The entrance of the entire Qianzhongfeng mountain area is an ancient fairy city, which is located at the junction of the hilly area and the Qianzhongfeng mountain.

At this moment, Xiang Hong followed the instructions on the map, bypassing the dangerous area occupied by monsters, and headed towards the ancient fairy city.But to his surprise, he hardly saw any monsters along the way.

According to the description on the map, there should be a lot of monsters in this area, and it will take a lot of effort to pass through successfully, but Xiang Hong went all the way without encountering any monsters at all.

Thinking of the large swarm of monster locusts he encountered at the entrance of the secret realm, Xiang Hong had a faint feeling in his heart. It seemed that the secret realm of Thousand Peaks this time was a little different from the past.

Traveling all the way without hindrance, Xiang Hong arrived at the ancient fairy city marked on the map after three days.

In the undulating hills and mountains, a gray-white ancient city stands proudly isolated, behind the city is the rolling mountains of the Thousand Peaks.

Flying near, Xiang Hong found that this ancient fairy city was not that big, with dozens of scattered ruins, surrounded by a circle of dilapidated city walls, and the entire city was only a kilometer in radius.

Xiang Hong landed directly into the city wall, and there were already many monks gathered around, hundreds of them. The fact that they could reach the ancient fairy city so quickly showed that these people were either well-prepared or had extraordinary strength.

Xiang Hong looked around and found that these monks were in groups of three or four, discussing something in a low voice, and everyone had a sad expression on their faces, as if they were full of thoughts.

Xiang Hong walked slowly towards the four monks gathered in a pile beside him. While walking, he heard some intermittent words.

"How could this be...different from what was recorded in the past..."

"I can't get in... It's a waste of hard work..."

Xiang Hong walked up to the group of people, cupped his hands in salute, and said, "Brothers, my younger brother just arrived, why are there so many monks gathered here?"

The monks stopped talking and turned to look at Xiang Hong. One of the gray-haired old men saw the golden disciple uniform on Xiang Hong's body, and his expression changed slightly.

"It turns out to be a fellow Taoist of the Sun Moon Sect." The old man said with a smile on his face, "You didn't know something when you arrived here. There used to be a teleportation circle in this ancient fairy city, which can be teleported to the Qianchongfeng mountain range. But now there seems to be something wrong with this magic circle, we have been waiting here for a day and a night, but there is no sign of this magic circle being activated."

"Is there something wrong with the teleportation circle?" Xiang Hong was taken aback, and it was an unexpected situation. To enter the Qianchongfeng mountain area, he had to pass through the teleportation circle in the ancient fairy city. He didn't expect the magic circle to fail.

The old man continued: "Now that the magic circle is invalid, we discussed it a few times. Waiting here is not an option. It is better to hunt monsters around, look for spiritual grass, and return to the ancient fairy city after the magic circle recovers. I don't know. Friends, do you intend to go together?"

"Thank you, but I have no plans to go out of the city for the time being." Xiang Hong smiled and rejected the old man, and then said: "I'll go to the teleportation circle to have a look first, excuse me."

After Xiang Hong finished speaking, he cupped his fists at these people, then turned and walked towards the teleportation circle behind the ancient fairy city.

The old man and the other three monks watched Xiang Hong go away, and a person beside him said in a low voice: "Brother, this person's origin is unknown, why do you still want to involve him?"

The old man lowered his voice and said: "What do you know? This person is a disciple of the Sun Moon Sect. If he is strong, he is a strong supporter. If he is weak, he is a fat sheep."

The three people on the side suddenly realized and nodded one after another.

"It's a pity that this guy doesn't take the bait." Looking at Xiang Hong's back, the old man shook his head and said, "Let's go, don't waste time here."
