I picked up skill fragments in the demon world.

Chapter 464 Under the Dragon Palace
With the rise of the incense sect, more and more powerful people appeared, and Zhang Chen became more cautious.

Those tenth-order gods are no worse than the celestial beings in his original world, not to mention the eleventh and twelfth orders, and even the existence of fruits above them?

Each one is so scary!

Even if they are all castrated versions, they are still terrifying.

"Close!" Gu Mingyue saw Zhang Chen and Xie Lingyun falling into the magma. The next moment, she slowly put her hands together, and saw that the torn earth actually closed up tightly again.

"Boy, no matter how capable you are, once you are trapped in the magma, you will only be refined to death." Gu Mingyue's voice was full of pride, and then his figure flashed and soared into the sky, rushing directly towards Xie Xuan, joining the battlefield to encircle and suppress Xie Xuan.

Xie Xuan was already at a disadvantage facing the three ninth-rank gods, and it was hard for him to resist. Fortunately, the Great Immortal Huli had been scared away by Zhang Chen, otherwise today would have been the day for Xie Xuan to face his calamity.

Xie Xuan is a great Yangshen who has comprehended the mysteries of the laws of heaven and earth. He is definitely not comparable to those fake gods who rely on incense and faith. Looking at the gods who are constantly surrounding and killing him, Xie Xuan's eyes revealed a hint of departure: "It is not advisable to stay here for long. We must leave as soon as possible, otherwise the great tiger power will come back and I will definitely die here. If I use the luck gathered by my 50,000 troops, I will have a chance to fight against these old guys."

Thinking of this, Xie Xuan clapped his hands, and bolts of lightning and fire burst out from his body, forcing back the three great Huang Tiandao masters who were besieging him. Then he disappeared from the spot in a flash.

"Xie Xuan is so troublesome! We originally wanted to help the Great Immortal Huli to raid the enemy camp, but who knew that the Great Immortal Huli retreated for no reason, and we couldn't stop Xie Xuan. It was really troublesome." Gu Mingyue looked at Xie Xuan's departing back and did not continue to chase him, because her speed was simply not as fast as the other party.

The three of them came to assist the Great Immortal Hu Li in raiding the enemy camp. Now that the Great Immortal Hu Li is gone, how can the three of them kill Xie Xuan?

If you want to surround and kill a ninth-level master, unless you have the right time, place and people, and force the opponent into a desperate situation, otherwise no one can stop him from retreating.

In underground magma

An ice boat was shuttling through the magma. Zhang Chen held a fire-proof bead in his hand. The bead emitted a warm breath that turned into a red light shield, covering Zhang Chen and the ice boat. No matter how scorching the flames from the outside, they could not do anything to the inside of the light shield.

"What a treasure!" Xie Lingyun looked at the red bullet the size of a peanut in Zhang Chen's hand and praised it. She was not a person without eyes and recognized the unusualness of the Fire-Repelling Bead at a glance.

"It can only ward off fire. Apart from that, it has no other abilities and is useless." Zhang Chen, on the contrary, did not care at all. This fire-proof bead was indeed of little use to him.

Xie Lingyun was annoyed when he heard this: "This is underground magma, which can be regarded as the fire of the earth, and also a kind of fire of heaven and earth. Your bead can easily block the power of the earth fire. Is it useless?"

Zhang Chen did not comment upon hearing this. He raised his head and looked at the crack in the ground that was closing above his head: "Gu Mingyue wants to trap us here and let us be refined alive by the underground fire."

"If it weren't for your fire-proof bead, we would have been dead, so Gu Mingyue's plan was not in vain." Zhang Chen looked around, only to see a sea of ​​fire everywhere, and could not see the road ahead at all.

"How can we escape?" Xie Lingyun's eyes showed a trace of worry. Although the two of them would not be burned to death in the sea of ​​fire, if they could not escape, they would be trapped here and die. As for counting on Xie Xuan to come to rescue? Magma is also a kind of earth fire, which is a kind of strange fire in the world. The breath it emits will interfere with the qi of the world. Even Yangshen Zhenren can't find the target in this vast sea of ​​fire.

Moreover, the flame itself has the effect of refining. As soon as the breath of the two people leaves the body, it will be refined by the blazing earth fire. Even if people outside want to trace the breath, they cannot do it.

"Don't worry!" Zhang Chen comforted Xie Lingyun: "I will naturally find a way to help you escape."

After Zhang Chen drove the ice boat through the magma for dozens of miles, he stopped at a magma place, then looked up at the crust above his head. Then he activated the earth control technique, the power of the earth was running, and a passage slowly appeared in front of the two of them.

Zhang Chen abandoned the ice boat, grabbed Xie Lingyun's hand, and said, "Let's go!"

Then the two of them stepped onto the passage, and as they walked through it, the passage closed again, leaving no chance for the magma to leak out.

"I never realized you have such tricks before. How many tricks have you hidden?" Xie Lingyun looked at Zhang Chen with curiosity.

Zhang Chen smiled softly upon hearing this: "I have many hidden tricks, you will know them later, sister."

As Zhang Chen continued to open up a passage, it only took an hour. When Zhang Chen opened up a passage again, the azure blue bottom of the water appeared before his eyes.

However, Zhang Chen's water control technique controlled the water flow, so the water did not flow into the channel. "It's coming out!" Xie Lingyun looked at the clear water flow above his head and exhaled a long breath, and the feeling of depression in his heart disappeared completely.

"Where are we going next?" Zhang Chen asked Xie Lingyun.

“Without my burden, my father can escape even if he cannot defeat the three great masters of Huang Tiandao. Let’s go to the Dragon Palace in Chunting Lake, explore the wonders in the Dragon Palace, and then evacuate the north.” Xie Lingyun’s voice was calm.

Zhang Chen followed Xie Lingyun's words without refuting. He condensed the ice boat again and appeared on the water. Looking from afar, he saw that the entire north was flooded. The turbulent atmosphere between heaven and earth had gradually stabilized. It was obvious that the fight between the various masters had stopped.

Zhang Chen steered the ice boat all the way towards the Yellow River. After a while, he arrived at the Yellow River. He saw that the Yellow River had been filled up and completely merged with the flood. The river was flowing endlessly and the riverbed was no longer recognizable.

But Zhang Chen mastered the art of controlling water, so it was not difficult for him to find the underground entrance.

The underground entrance had been filled with water. Zhang Chen's ice boat stopped on the water above the underground entrance. Xie Lingyun said, "There were experts from the Inspection Office guarding this place. Now that the flood has come, I think those experts have fled for their lives."

Without the burden of the army, the chances of survival for those masters were greater than those of ordinary people. They ran faster, climbed trees faster, held trees more tightly, and were less likely to be washed away by the flood.

All of these are the capital for masters to survive.

Zhang Chen thought about it and the water flow opened up a passage, which turned into a staircase. Zhang Chen and Xie Lingyun stepped on the staircase and walked into the underground cave.

"Speaking of which, your water and earth control skills are really amazing. You are invincible." Xie Lingyun stepped on the water stairs, feeling the heaviness like a mud step, and began to praise.

"It's just a small trick, how could my sister take it seriously?" Zhang Chen said with a smile.

"This is no small trick. If you have the advantage of time and place, even a ninth-rank master won't be able to do anything to you. How can this be considered a small trick? I want to use a bunch of these small tricks." Xie Lingyun said unhappily.

Zhang Chen smiled. As Xie Lingyun re-entered the underground dragon palace, Xie Lingyun began to introduce the information in the underground dragon palace to Zhang Chen: "Didn't we fight Zhang Shicheng's first body in the Chunting Lake Dragon Palace before, interrupting his plan to transform into a dragon? Later, when the Inspection Office was cleaning up the battlefield, along with the dragon energy of the northern land veins, they discovered that there was actually a secret realm hidden under the Chunting Lake. There was a different world in that secret realm. But there was great terror there. No matter how many masters went in, they all died. Even my father came to explore it himself, but unfortunately he was scared away before he could step into that secret realm."

Zhang Chen paused when he heard this and turned to look at Xie Lingyun: "Your father can't even handle this, and you want me to do it?"

"My father couldn't handle Zhang Shicheng, but you did it twice. Just because my father couldn't handle it doesn't mean you can't handle it." Xie Lingyun blinked her big eyes, "I believe in your ability! And there must be great fortune under the Dragon Palace in Chunting Lake, and you will never be disappointed."

Zhang Chen did not comment. He already had enough treasures, so why would he need any more? There were fewer and fewer treasures in the world that could make him excited.

The more treasures you have, the better. The main thing is to be proficient in all aspects.

The two men came all the way to the Dragon Palace of Chunting Lake, only to see that it had turned into ruins, destroyed by Zhang Shicheng's anger that day.

"The entire palace is made of crystal, which can be used to create various crystal items. It made my office rich. It was when we were moving the crystals in Chunting Lake that we discovered the mysterious entrance in the ruins." Xie Lingyun said.

As they were talking, the two of them had already arrived at a corner of the Chunting Lake Dragon Palace ruins, and saw that the broken crystals in the corner had been cleared out. In the ruins there was a hole with a radius of three meters. The hole went straight down, and it was pitch black with no visible bottom. At first glance, it looked like the huge mouth of a ferocious beast, which seemed to be able to swallow all matter.

"It's here." Xie Lingyun said.

Zhang Chen stood at the entrance of the Dragon Palace in Chunting Lake and looked around, observing the changes inside. There was a golden light in his eyes. After a long while, he said, "Is there any danger in here?"

He did not sense any dangerous aura from this black hole.

"It can take away people's lives." Xie Lingyun said.

Zhang Chen's heart skipped a beat when he heard that, and he had an urge to leave immediately. He didn't have much time to live to begin with, and if he accidentally lost another year or two, he would just slit his own throat. Why bother with all that?
“Don’t be afraid. The thing that takes away people’s life may be the thing that prolongs their life. My father once felt a very strong vitality in the depths of the cave. There may be a power that can make people immortal.” Xie Lingyun’s voice was very serious.
