C25 dried carcass of animal

"Hahahaha!" A gloomy laughter rang out from under the mask. It was like a baby crying at night, causing one's heart to be covered in a layer of frost.

"Let me introduce myself. I'm the head of the Throne Phoenix Pavilion, Haotian!" The man with the ghost face leaned forward slightly, his two black eyes shot straight at Jian Dong, "You guys seem to be afraid of me, don't do this, I don't even care about that red jade!" Haotian's voice was low and hoarse. He took a few steps forward and continuously sized up Jian Dong, as if he was sizing up his own belongings.

Jian Dong steadied his expression and did not say a word. He was very clear that he was not on the same level as the pavilion master in front of him, and there must be something wrong with talking too much.

But at this moment, Haotian suddenly patted Jian Dong's shoulders lightly, and like a ghost, he floated backwards and left the two of them.

"Brat, I think highly of you. From now on, you should cultivate properly!" His words were weak and seemed lifeless. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from everyone's sight and flew off into the distance.

At this time, Shao Han looked at Jian Dong, and an unintentional look of disdain flashed past his eyes: "The one year agreement is about to expire, don't forget!"

Following the soft sound, Shaohan and the other cultivator left the area.

The Old Wang glanced at Jian Dong, as he clearly had some doubts towards the woman's words and actions: "You know her?"

Hearing that, Jian Dong nodded his head, and shook it: "It's fine, Uncle Wang, are we still going to go in? Or go back? "

Old Wang looked in the direction that Haotian had left, his eyes rolling like balls. After pondering for a long time, he finally opened his mouth and said, "Although there are rare and precious beasts here, it shouldn't be enough to make the master of the Throne Phoenix Pavilion come here personally, right?"

Jian Dong was startled, three wrinkles on his forehead revealed themselves: "Uncle Wang, what do you mean?"

"The number of strange beasts in the suburbs has decreased due to the illusion from the sky for the past few days. I think that there must be something special in the vicinity. How about this, we go deeper into the depths to search for a few herbs that are similar to red jade?"

Then, Old Wang suddenly turned and stared at Jian Dong, his expression solemn, "Kid, you must not run around, follow me from the sides!"

"Oh!" Jian Dong nodded his head, and laughed secretly, he never expected that Old Wang Uncle would be so greedy!

The forest was completely silent. The two walked another ten li or more, accurately speaking, they were heading towards the direction of Haotian's departure. During this process, they discovered quite a few foundation stones and rubble, and even the vegetation was unable to completely conceal them. Furthermore, Jian Dong also saw that many of the ferocious beasts were hiding in their caves, anxious and restless. There was no lack of creatures stronger than the giant serpent among them.

"BOOM!"

At this moment, a dull sound came from deep within the forest. Jian Dong instantly felt his heart tremble! It was as if something had grabbed onto his heart, causing him to feel an intense pain. Furthermore, his steps and Old Wang's were surprisingly in unison, as he stumbled a few steps backwards to stabilize his body.

"What is this!" Old Wang was in a trance for a while, his eyes were drifting about, and he was stunned!

"Brat, I feel an incomparably majestic life force coming from far away!"

"Master!" Jian Dong was ecstatic, he had not heard the Sword Saint's voice for a long time, he was obviously very excited.

"Let's go back, I don't want to lose my life over this!" Old Wang was already retreating, his face dark as he shook his head.

"Huh?" Jian Dong stared at Old Wang suspiciously. Just a moment ago, he was still determined to go and take a look, but now?

Old Wang rubbed his eyes and said tiredly: "Let's go. You have been out for so long, my family should be worried!"

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Curling his lips, Jian Dong could only nod his head in agreement. As he followed Old Wang back, his heart resounded once again.

"Brat, think of a way to get rid of him. The sound just now should have belonged to a powerful being that is slowly awakening after countless years of slumber. With such a heaven defying existence, there will definitely be ruins left behind. Perhaps there will be an unexpected harvest! "

"But, I saw the Pavilion Master of the Emperor Phoenix Pavilion earlier; they ought to be searching for the ancient ruins as well, right?" Talking about the man with the red face, Jian Dong gasped.

"With Master here, what is there to be afraid of? "You were not too bad a few days ago, although I couldn't get to the peak with that many monster cores, but 80 to 90% of it is enough!"

Right at this moment, the sound of breaking air could be heard. More than ten silhouettes streaked across the sky one after another, charging towards the depths of the forest.

Old Wang looked up and quickened his pace, "It really isn't simple! Hurry up and leave this place! "

"Ouch!" Jian Dong held his stomach and squatted on the ground, his facial features twisted as he moaned in pain.

Old Wang immediately stood up and turned to look at him, "What's wrong?"

"Uncle Wang, I have to look for a place to rest. You go ahead, I'll catch up with you in a while!" "Ouch!" Jian Dong did not wait for Old Wang's reply, holding onto his stomach as he ran into the lush green forest.

"Then hurry up! This is so troublesome! " Old Wang muttered, and walked forward without looking back.

After that, the forest shook for a bit, and Jian Dong exposed half of his head to take a glance. Realizing that the Old Wang was walking far away, he let out a long breath.

"It looks like all the cultivation sects have received the news and are rushing over!" The voice of Saber Saint rang out in a low voice.

The sky gradually darkened and the sky was filled with stars. Occasionally, strange cries could be heard from the pitch-black sky. It was extremely surprising!

Jian Dong mustered up all of his concentration to continue walking forward by several kilometers, before unknowingly arriving at a desolate land. This place was completely barren and completely scorched, and there were also the cracks and rubble he had seen previously, but there was nothing else.

In the darkness of the night, there was a mysterious aura emanating from this place, and a faint black mist was curling around.

"Humph, just as I expected, the ancient ruins were born without a single blade of grass. There is absolutely no sign of life! "Brat, your luck is quite good. To think that you would encounter such a great incident!"

"Is this god-forsaken place really so magical?" Jian Dong muttered. At this time, he actually felt hungry and thirsty, and couldn't even pick some wild fruits to fill his stomach.

"I, your master, have only entered this ancient monument once. This ancient monument was sealed from the past. Do you know what it means by that?" Heh heh, just taking out something would cause the world to go crazy over it. Tsk tsk, this ancient monument does not have any warning signs at all. I think, not many people know about it, but you brat have the chance to come! "

"Master, I'm so hungry! "I didn't have any strength left. Why didn't you come out and help me when the big snake was chasing after me?" Jian Dong pursed his lips, he did not have enough strength!

"If I'm the one to help you with everything, what's the point of you?" Blade Saint's voice was mixed with anger, he was extremely dissatisfied with Jian Dong's weakness!

Jian Dong scratched his head and laughed dryly, "Then Master, what should we do next?"

Just as he finished speaking, he was suddenly hit by a huge force, causing him to stumble and fall into the darkness. Jian Dong was tongue-tied, his heart was covered with frost, with a "Swish" he jumped up, looking back, he felt his scalp go numb, he quickly retreated, his expression panicking!

Right in front of him, a cold body of a wild beast was lying on the ground. Its old skin was wrapped around the bone, and it looked like dried firewood. It was actually an animal carcass! It was a terrifying sight to behold!
