Chapter 34 Secret Realm Puppet

Walking through the ancient battlefield all the way, when I came out, I only saw a dry forest in front of me. Standing on a high place and looking at it, I could see endlessly. In the middle of the forest, a tall black tower towered high. The hanging things like prayer flags look like a ghost building.

Standing on a high place, looking back at the battlefield full of bones, the four of them felt very heavy in their hearts.

Zuo Lan said: "In this situation, I guess it may not be able to solve it even if the soul master comes."

Can a few of them in the realm of soul warriors really solve this problem?

Now there are still 25 living people left in the secret realm, one of the ten throne families died, and there are still nine people; five spokespersons for the five soul emperors; nine people from the nine soul institutes are still all; One of the guilds died, and there were two more.

Jiang Cuoming didn't speak, he just changed a soul crystal for the compass silently, it turned out that the soul power in that one had been drained, Zuo Lan felt a pain in his flesh when he saw it, a mid-grade soul crystal , equal to 1 low-level soul crystals... Jiang Cuoming is also a local tyrant.

Xi Yulin also took out some things at this time, a pair of white gloves, very thin, like silk woven, after putting them on, he clenched his fists, then crossed his fingers, feeling pretty good, said: "This forest It’s called Ghost Forest, I’ve seen it in Qianyuhunhuang’s travel notes, so be careful.”

Zuo Lan also knows about the ghost forest,

This is a kind of tree that grows strangely. After growing to maturity, each tree is exactly the same. Whether it is the trunk, branches and leaves, or even the veins and shapes of the leaves, there is no difference at all.

In the ghost forest, no matter how fast or how far you go, as long as you are still in it, you will feel confused, because the trees you enter are all the same, which will give people the illusion of walking in place .

However, Jiang Cuoming brought a compass, so they probably wouldn't get lost.

"Someone has already arrived at that tower." Chongyu didn't make any preparations, and stood on the high ground calmly watching. Suddenly, a piece of prayer flags was blown up by the strong wind and flew away from the tower. A black shadow came from the tower. The tower was smashed up and down, and it looked like a person.

"It seems that there has been another bloody case."

Chongyu laughed, he seemed born to be the kind of person who fears the world will not be chaotic, and he was quite happy to see that weird scene.

Zuo Lan was speechless.

"According to the outside time, it is almost midnight now, but the sky here has not changed at all. It seems that this is the case here regardless of day and night." Jiang Cuoming adjusted the compass, the map further expanded, Zuo Lan raised his eyes When I saw it, I was secretly startled, the map had begun to take shape, and it had already reached a quarter of Zuo Lan's map.However, it has not yet reached the most central position.

This will be a long journey.

"Chongyu, how many contact beads unique to Emperor Chongyi have you brought?" Jiang Cuoming glanced at the map and asked suddenly.

Chong Yu frowned, Jiang Cuoming asked very impolitely, he squinted his eyes and looked at Jiang Cuoming for a long time, then smiled and said, "Are you asking me?"

Jiang Cuoming is very indifferent: "Yes."

The Ten Throne Clans are ranked. Except for Zuo Lan, Chongyu, Jiang Cuoming and Xi Yulin are all members of the Throne Family. Among the Throne Clans, the Throne Chongyi is naturally in the status of a superior. Jiang Cuoming The throne where he is located is the seventh, and it stands to reason that his status is lower than that of Chongyu. Just now Jiang Cuoming asked Chongyu directly like that, which would naturally make Chongyu feel uncomfortable.

Chongyu sneered, turned his hand, and four purple beads appeared in his hand, and he threw them all to Jiang Cuoming: "Now the four of us are a group, the throne will let us care about today's affairs."

"Let's talk about it later." Jiang Cuoming was very indifferent.

The Throne Club is still in the next few years, and the younger generation will also choose people to participate. After all, the Throne Club has more than that, but now, the most important thing is the secret realm. After the secret realm, there is also the question of the Soul Institute Grand Competition. What will happen to the throne is not very important.

Zuo Lan has heard of the purple communication bead, which is a masterpiece of the weapon research and development department of Chongyi's own family. It can carry out communication transmission over a certain distance. It was developed many years ago and is now being used by the Ninth Soul Institute. The principle of the courtyard card is also from the throne Chongyi, but the communication distance of the courtyard card is not long, and it can only be used for ordinary communication. As the communication method dedicated to the throne Chongyi, this contact bead must not be simple, but I don’t know Jiang misunderstood what it was used for.

Jiang Cuoming is the default senior of Wu Academy of the Ninth Soul Institute, and he is indeed very calm in his work. After receiving the contact bead, he threw it in the air, formed a seal with one hand, and punched a A few light marks, and then press a mechanism on the compass, four rays of light shot out from the purple contact beads, drilled into the compass, in the blink of an eye, the original one positioning point on the map became four, but All purple.

Jiang Cuoming threw the contact bead to the other three, and said: "This bead can be used to communicate with soul power, and the effective range is half of the soul continent, so we can completely guarantee communication when we enter the ghost forest. , It shouldn’t be too bad. I bound the contact beads and compass, if they are lost, I can see you from the map. Is there anything else I need to add now? No, let’s go.”

They are already too far behind the people in front. The figure that fell from the tower before made the four of them a little worried. It is impossible for things to happen for no reason. The deaths of Duan Qi and Qi Yu before have become a cloud that cannot be erased. In the hearts of the four, another accident happened ahead, which invisibly intensified their pressure.

The four of them set off and gradually approached the ghost forest. Standing outside, Zuo Lan glanced at the dense numbers inside and felt his scalp explode.

It turned out that after seeing the description of this kind of tree in the book, he didn't think much about it, but the trees in this place grew extremely twisted, and all the branches were twisted and bent, as if they were grinning—this secret realm , It is basically similar to the eerie hell!

Once entering the ghost forest, the sky is almost invisible. The sky above the ghost forest is completely covered by the dark canopy, and the branches are intertwined above it, like a prepared cage, waiting for their arrival.

This feeling is extremely dangerous. Since entering the secret realm, Zuo Lan's ominous feeling has become more and more intense.

He doesn't like this place.

Jiang Cuoming took the lead, Xi Yulin was second, Zuo Lan was third, followed by Chongyu.

Chong Yu walked behind Zuo Lan, making him feel uncomfortable.

"Speaking of which, it seems that there are some bad things in the ghost forest."

The corner of Zuo Lan's mouth twitched, Chong Yu who was lifting which pot was not open, really... makes people want to turn around and flatten...

Without waiting for Zuo Lan to speak, the rainforest in front suddenly smiled: "It is rich in snakes, rats, ants, millipedes, poisonous birds, twin flowers, unicorn trees, red water badgers, black leopards...all of which can be served on the table Great food..."

……

Damn who eats your perverted things!

Zuo Lan almost staggered and was about to fall, none of the names reported by Xi Yulin was a good thing.

"Xi Yulin, shut up!"

"I can cook with my mouth shut." Xi Yulin intentionally misinterpreted his meaning.

Jiang Cuoming in front turned a blind eye to this, and continued to walk forward. On the map of the compass, four white dots were very close to each other, lined up, and they were still moving forward.

It gets darker as you go inside. Chongyu behind is probably an old man. With a wave of his hand, he folded a light tube made of a glowing soul crystal and threw it on top of everyone's heads. The light suddenly lit up all around, but it was pale. The strange light shone on those weird trees, and it felt even more weird.

Zuo Lan couldn't help complaining: "Will you die if you change the color of the lamp?"

Chongyu was taken aback, he didn't expect Zuo Lan to take the initiative to talk to him, he thought for a while, and then clapped his palms, which was very abrupt in this quiet place except for the sound of footsteps and breathing. The moment the sound sounded, the light suspended above everyone's heads flickered, and the color suddenly changed to red.

Chongyu: "How about this?"

The other three: "..."

Damn red light in this horrible place do you want us all to die? !Just kidding your sister, we'll be scared to death if this thing lights up all the way, okay? ! !

Before Zuo Lan and the others could speak, Chongyu continued to clap his palms, "Papapa..."

Every time there is applause, the color will change.

The product produced by Yuzuo Takaichi is indeed a high-end product, and it is also discolored...

I don't know how much I can sell it for...

Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, blue and purple... those who don't know think it's a rainbow...

Chongyu raised his head. At this time, even Jiang Cuoming, who was walking in front, turned to look at him. He wondered, "Aren't these colors all beautiful?"

Xi Yulin said with a smile: "It's very beautiful, I like it very much."

Zuo Lan immediately turned his head, wishing he could spray blood on his face, "What did you say..."

Xi Yulin continued to smile: "Don't you think this is very emotional?"

"Speaking of flirting in the ghost forest, are you insane?"

"..."

No, don't think that the above sentence is said by Zuo Lan, and the string of wordless ellipsis below belongs to Zuo Lan.

Xi Yulin was stiff all over, turned his head, and looked behind him—Jiang Cuoming.

That sentence just now...

Jiang Cuoming just complained directly!

Not to mention Xi Yulin, even Zuo Lan felt that the sky was thundering!

They all looked at Jiang Cuoming like a monster.

Jiang Cuoming was indifferent, and glanced at Chongyu: "Change back to the original color."

So Chongyu clapped his hands, and the whole light turned pale again.

After the light episode, everyone started to march again.

Strangely, the hardships and dangers they expected along the way did not appear. This machine was so abnormal that when they stood on the edge of the huge open space in the center of the ghost forest, everyone felt like a dream.

The open space in the center of the ghost forest is where the tower is located. Those ghost trees grow crazily. They can take root and grow crazily when they meet the right land. However, in this circular open space, there are only half a tree. No plants.The growth of the ghost forest seems to stop here.

"We didn't meet anything, it's really..." Chongyu waved his hand and put away the lamp made of soul crystal that was lit before, with a bit of disappointment in his tone.

Zuo Lan rolled his eyes: "Why did you give up the treatment?"

Xi Yulin snickered coldly at the side: "He has never been treated, so how can he give up treatment?"

Chongyu didn't mind the joint sarcasm of the two, walked up to Jiang Cuoming's side, and asked, "Did you see anything?"

As soon as he left the ghost forest, Jiang Cuoming stood here and watched for a long time, and his gaze never left for a moment.

Jiang Cuoming heard the words, his eyes flashed, but he slowly spit out a sentence: "That is a demon building."

The black old prayer flags are long and long, hanging from the top of the tower and being blown up by the wind blowing from the flat ground, which is indeed in line with the word "demon" that Jiang Cuoming said.

Zuo Lan stomped his feet casually on the ground, and the gray soul array lit up, more than five feet wide, it seemed that Jiang Cuoming and others beside him also stepped on his soul array.He lightly touched the center of his brow with his fingertips, and the six-pointed star soul imprint lit up, but the color suddenly turned green, and the color of the pupils of his eyes seemed to change accordingly. In the slow rotation, it also turned into full green.

Jiang Cuoming was used to this kind of scene, but it was the first time for Chongyu and Xi Yulin to see it, and surprise appeared in their eyes.

"Is this the advantage of having no attributes? You can switch attributes anytime and anywhere." Xi Yulin asked Jiang wrongly.

Jiang Cuoming said: "You are also a water and fire attribute, isn't it the same for conversion?"

But Xi Yulin smiled and didn't talk to him. I don't know if he is the same as Zuo Lan.

On the contrary, Jiang misunderstood himself, probably exactly the same as Zuo Lan.

They all watched Zuo Lan's movements, and then saw that the five-foot-square soul map suddenly burst into light. The sky blocks out the sun!

Zuo Lan was also stunned, what a joke, he was just trying to see if he could grow something in this place, does this soul technique need to be so cruel?This made it look like wilder weeds!

Zuo Lan quickly grabbed the hand formula and withdrew his soul power, those crazy things immediately shrank back, obediently returned to Zuo Lan's soul array.

Then, what greeted Zuo Lan was that kind of extremely strange gaze.

Zuo Lan said awkwardly: "I just... just... just want to see if this place can grow something... It seems that the effect is not bad..."

"——The next time you are going to use a soul spell, can you let us know and tell us to go far away?" Xi Yulin said.

Just now, the three of them were caught off guard by Zuo Lan's sudden attack, and almost missed it. Jiang Cuoming almost wanted to attack Zuo Lan, thinking that he was making a sneak attack. Fortunately, Zuo Lan reacted quickly and stopped him in time. Otherwise, Jiang Cuoming really can't guarantee whether Zuo Lan's head is still on his neck.

Zuo Lan was also speechless. He tried to find a reason for himself, but a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he squatted down, grabbed a handful of soil, and rubbed it carefully, "I understand. My soul technique was out of control before, It's not because I'm injecting too much soul power, but because this place is too suitable for the display of wood attribute soul arts."

When he said this, the other three people also noticed that everything in the world has attributes. Generally speaking, soil has the most earth attributes, but here it turns out that wood attributes are more, which seems to be reversed.

"This place is really weird."

He just wanted to know the reason why the ghost forest couldn't grow here, but he didn't expect to find this kind of thing, which is strange.

"Wood grows in the soil, but the soil here has a heavier wood attribute. The ghost forest can't absorb enough soil attributes here, so it doesn't want to grow here?" Chongyu analyzed, "Soil is born to represent Earth attribute, but here, the attributes seem to be misplaced, which should be man-made."

"Let's go and see the tower over there first." Jiang Cuoming no longer entangled in the ghost forest, and walked forward first.

The tower was in the middle, and the closer they got, the more they could see the appearance of the tower. However, at that moment, Zuo Lan was completely stunned, and Jiang Cuoming and others were also stunned.

This tower...is exactly the same as the main office tower of the Ninth Soul Institute!There is even a blue bird sculpture at the top.

These four people were all surprised, but no one was as surprised as Zuo Lan, because he had already encountered such a situation.

The Blue Bird Tower is like this again...

This tower is the same as the tower of the general office, and the same as the blue bird tower of the Horcrux that Zuo Lan is now lying in the eight poles of jade.

It's just that this spooky tower is far from the head office tower.

Before they had time to ask what was going on, they had already seen the falling black shadow before.

"It looks like a wooden idol. You guessed it was a human before, so you might have missed it." Xi Yulin looked at it from a distance, smiled, and walked forward.

Zuo Lan was beside him, and suddenly reached out to grab him, and said harshly, "Don't go over there!"

Xi Yulin turned his head and saw Zuo Lan's eyes, which had recovered to black, staring straight ahead.

"That's not some wooden idol... that's... Lin Jianren..."

The best student of the Wood Academy of the Ninth Soul Academy, Lin Jianren who sang the Divine Comedy in the cafeteria.

The four stood thirty feet in front of the tower, staring at the black figure in front of them, and remained motionless for a while.

"Go and see."

Jiang Cuoming went first.

In the secret realm, there are always countless mysteries.

The first soul courtyard area in the Central Plains, the Soul Emperor Hall.

The soul emperors in black cloaks all took off their outer black cloaks, revealing their whole robes. The man sitting at the top raised his eyebrows and counted them together: "It's strange, where is Lincang?"

"Retreat." A man playing with a paper fan replied lightly.

"At this time of retreat, he really isn't worried at all. Well, why don't we make a bet, if we say we're going to kill Zuo Lan, will he show up..."

"It's a boring game, but it suits my heart. But I believe, he won't show up." It was still the man playing with the paper fan, with picturesque features and leisurely eyes, and he said with a smile, " Xue Bing, what do you think?"

The cold-faced man's right hand flashed light between the five fingers, but he just said coldly: "I'm not interested."

"You really don't give face. Speaking of which—Chongyan, have you lost your mind? You don't want Chongli to be your spokesperson, but you actually found Chongyu. He seems to have been repaired by Lincang not long ago..." Speaking Yes, it was Mei Ziqing, the Unbounded Emperor. He walked around, stroked his chin, and suddenly smiled, "I guess the envoys of the gods are also paying attention to the secret realm, but I don't know... what they are going to do..."
