Chapter 193 West Mountain
After thinking for a moment, Xu Feng shook his head, clasped his hands in a fist and said, "If that's the case, then forget it."

I, as a junior, am not yet confident enough to claim such abilities.

However, the junior can agree to the senior's request.

"When I am strong enough in the future, I will definitely go on that trip for you."

A hint of helplessness flashed in Senior Yang's eyes: "Heh, you're still so cautious."
But it's alright, as long as I got your promise, that's fine. I trust your character.

Therefore, you shall leave the three beasts here and return in a month.

I will definitely raise their strength to a higher level.

"Huh?" Xu Feng was taken aback for a moment, then quickly asked, "Senior, but I haven't—"

Senior Yang said domineeringly, "No need, I trust you."

"Thank you so much, senior!" Xu Feng could only say, deeply moved.

Being trusted so much can be incredibly exciting.

Moreover, it was by such a powerful alien elder.

Xu Feng secretly decided that once he reached the strength of a War God, he would definitely make a trip there.

Not for any other reason than to repay the trust of my seniors.

After leaving the cave.

Xu Feng met the two fox brothers outside the cave.

“Spirit medium, the bodies are all here, and they’ve been dismembered.”

The fox laughed and pointed to the mountain of flesh beside him.

"As you instructed, we wrapped them all in this damn plastic wrap and only took the best parts of the meat."

There were also wolf bones and wolf skins; the rest of the wolf parts were left in the mountains.

We found a cave in the mountains these past two days; the underground temperature is so high that it can even freeze, so it shouldn't affect the quality of the meat.

Xu Feng said gratefully, "Thank you both so much, you've really helped me a lot."

"It's nothing, just a small matter! You're too kind, Spirit Communicator," Fox said, clasping his hands in greeting.

Long before many human warriors arrived.

The two fox brothers took away all the corpses of the dead beast general-level wolf beasts from the battlefield.

Because at that time, Xu Feng simply couldn't carry that many things.

If they were taken back by the outpost, they would inevitably be coveted by others.

Moreover, his storage methods are not very convenient for others to know.

So they simply had the two fox brothers take the corpse away beforehand.

Now that the two brothers have gone to great lengths to bring the body here, Xu Feng has no choice but to treat them to a meal, both out of courtesy and reason.

After collecting the corpses, Xu Feng said with a smile, "Let's go back. Today I'll treat you two to a human feast."

"Huh? Is there such a good thing?" Fox Two immediately became excited.

Fox Da glared at his younger brother, then looked at Xu Feng and asked, "By the way, does Senior Yang have any new instructions?"

"There are no new instructions, but my senior asked me to do something."

Xu Feng told the two brothers about it with a smile.

After all, the elder had lived in the mountains for many years and had no news from the outside world.

The fox clan is active in various places and is very knowledgeable about news from all over the world.

Perhaps the two brothers knew some information about that place.

Unexpectedly, Xu Feng's question landed on the right person.

Upon hearing Xu Feng's words, Fox Da and Fox Er exchanged a glance and exclaimed in surprise, "The Western Mountain Ruins? You've come to the right fox."

"Oh? What do you mean?" Xu Feng asked in surprise.

Fox thought for a moment: "We used to pass by there often, and those ruins used to be very lively."

However, some things happened later, and it became quiet.

It's said that the ruins have been almost completely explored, and there's nothing left to find.

"Is it dangerous?" Xu Feng asked quickly.

Fox Big's eyes darted around, and he suddenly clapped his hands: "It's not dangerous, but it's a bit complicated there, and it's easy to get lost. You'll need someone to lead the way."

How about this? We brothers are both free, so let's go to the ruins together, and we'll show you the way.

After we find what our senior is looking for, please put in a good word for my brother.
How about letting our fox clan show off before our elders?

Xu Feng immediately exclaimed with delight, "Of course, no problem!"

"Brother Xu, do you know what we're looking for?" Fox asked with a big laugh.

Xu Feng immediately perked up: "I know, shall we set off now?"

"How is your recovery going?" Fox asked Xu Feng.

Xu Feng patted his chest: "Full of energy and spirit!"

"Doggy doggy!" Fox Two immediately exclaimed excitedly in the human language, "I love adventure the most!"

"Hahaha! Let's go then!" Xu Feng said with a laugh and a wave of his hand.

This will be a perfect surprise for my senior!
Without further ado, the man and the two foxes leaped towards the Western Mountain Ruins.

With his flying speed and the rest time, the group arrived at the edge of a rugged, steep gray mountain range in less than two days.

"Wow! It truly is a case of 'a mountain range viewed from the side, a peak viewed from the front; its appearance varies depending on distance and elevation.'"

Fox stood atop a mountain peak, gazing at the distant gray cliffs with admiration.

"I didn't expect Brother Hu to be such a cultured person, impressive."

Xu Feng said with a smile.

Fox stood with his hands behind his back and said with a faint smile, "Hehe, I only have a little knowledge, nothing to brag about, nothing to brag about, hahaha."

He clearly enjoyed the subtle compliment.

Fox Two, standing to the side, pursed his lips and said, "They're just chattering away, I don't know what they're saying."

"When are we going to eat? Let's eat something before we go into the mountains."

Hu Da: "."

"Then let's eat now!" Xu Feng waved his hand and immediately set up camp on the spot.

He still had a lot of various kinds of food stored in his storage ring.

In addition, with the beast meat of the Beast General level obtained this time, there is absolutely no problem in cooking a meal.

Just as Xu Feng was preparing to cook, Fox Da went ahead and entered the mountain to scout out the way.

He hadn't been here for decades and was afraid of getting lost.

Fox Two sat to the side, assisting Xu Feng.

Xu Feng had just finished cooking when Fox returned with a puzzled look on his face.

"What's wrong? The road has changed?" Xu Feng noticed that Fox Da's expression was off and turned his head to ask in surprise.

Fox Two was originally staring intently at the pot, drooling.

Hearing this, he turned his head to look at Fox Big, leaving one eye fixed on the pot.

"It's not that the road has changed, but..." he scratched his head awkwardly, "I don't remember very clearly."

"Hahaha, you idiot." Fox Two mocked mercilessly.

"You remember?" Fox's face darkened.

"I don't remember," Fox Two said shamelessly. "I didn't blow it."

Xu Feng chuckled, and seeing that Fox Big's ears were perked up and its fur was standing on end, he quickly said, "Alright, alright, it's not important."

Since things have come to this, let's eat first.

"Yes, yes, let's eat!" Fox Two said happily.

Fox sighed, shook his head, and looked at Xu Feng, saying, "Alas, do humans have any medicine that can improve intelligence?"

Xu Feng smiled and said, "There used to be one called Brain Gold, but it seems to have stopped working."

The three of them chatted while eating.

After finishing his meal, Fox Two patted his belly and said contentedly, "Delicious, I love it."

Fox Da exclaimed excitedly, "I'm full! I'll try to find the way again this time, and I'm sure I'll remember!"

"Alright, let's go!" After packing up their things, Xu Feng led the two brothers directly to a mountain pass.

"It's from here! I remember we went in this way last time we came!"

Fox said with absolute certainty.

Fox Two glanced at the surrounding hills and scratched his head: "They all look the same."

Xu Feng: "Let's go, we'll look for it as we go."

The three of them then proceeded along the mountain pass into the complex and crisscrossing mountain range.

After walking for less than half a day, Fox Da actually remembered some landmarks.

After taking the wrong turn several times, the three finally arrived at the entrance to a city gate that resembled an ancient underground city buried deep in the mountains.

The massive stone gate was hidden by weeds and trees, making it look like a cave.

But after all those things were removed, clear traces of civilization could be seen.

Xu Feng used the translation function on his tactical watch to aim at the several foreign characters carved on the stone gate.

It turned out that all of these texts were unknown.

In other words, this site has not yet been discovered or explored by humans.

"That's great!" He breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Fox Big. "Brother Hu's memory is truly admirable."

"To remember so clearly after all these years, that's amazing!"

Fox Da squinted comfortably and said, "Hahaha, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning at all."

Let's go, what you're looking for is probably in the city center.

This underground ancient city is enormous, covering an area of ​​tens of kilometers; we still have a long way to go in our search.”

"Okay, let's go!"

Immediately, Xu Feng took out some tools he always kept on him for cave exploration.

Lighting tools, air quality monitoring equipment, and even mechanical smart dogs and small drone swarms used to clear the way were all taken out.

Seeing these seemingly living mechanical dogs and the swarm of drones scattered around, constantly exploring and scanning ahead.

It can detect dangers while creating maps.

Fox exclaimed in amazement, "What amazing technology! Humans are truly remarkable. I wonder if this dog can be traded for a Vermilion Fruit?"

"Vermilion Fruit?" Xu Feng quickly waved his hand. "One Vermilion Fruit can be exchanged for a truckload of this stuff. Brother Hu, don't underestimate the value of Vermilion Fruit."

Upon hearing this, Fox Da couldn't help but laugh and said, "Haha, the Spirit Communicator is too honest."

If it were anyone else, they would be eager to diminish the value of the red fruit and increase the value of the dog.

"This is my principle in life, and principles cannot be changed."

Xu Feng smiled and waved his hand.

The three of them spent almost a day exploring the cave.

Finally, around 9 p.m.

When the group crossed a stone bridge that was half broken, they arrived outside a huge, dark underground ancient city.

"Ouch!"

Xu Feng stood beside Fox Da and looked around.

The whole city felt like a dark, monstrous beast crawling on the ground.

Look around.

The surrounding mountain walls are covered with various shiny, mushroom-like fungal plants.

They radiate a bright and beautiful deep blue light.

Occasionally, there are some orange-red accents, like some kind of high-end light strip, enveloping the entire ancient city.

These "light strip"-like plants stretch for thousands of meters, illuminating the entire ancient city.

It's like a light show under the cover of night, or like the veins of this "monster".

This "monster" had been dead for an unknown period of time.

Only a few remnants remain, allowing one to sense the prosperity and splendor of yesteryear.

"Om-"

The swarm of drones dispersed overhead.

A huge city map gradually appeared on the tablet in Xu Feng's hand.

"Wow, it's been a long time since I've been to the Xishan Ruins."

Looking at it this way, this underground ancient city is quite spectacular.

Fox stood on a low rooftop by the roadside and sighed.

"Is the core area over there?"

Fox Two asked as he climbed up.

"That should be true. Come on, Brother Xu, follow me."

After confirming his location, Fox Big jumped onto the street and started walking forward.

The three walked briskly, their footsteps echoing through the desolate ancient city.

As far as the eye can see, all the houses around are built of stone.

The rows of houses are neatly arranged, clearly indicating a well-planned layout.

It can be described as a well-ordered and orderly dwelling.

The street surface was paved with some kind of hard blue bricks.

The roads are smooth and wide, with each street being at least four meters wide.

On both sides of the road, drainage ditches covered with bioluminescent fungi could be faintly seen.

This demonstrates the high level of craftsmanship used in the construction of this underground city.

Occasionally, you might walk to a certain spot and see some two-story stone buildings.

The exterior walls of these stone buildings are carved with various intricate patterns, giving them a very prestigious appearance.

Surrounding it is a large open space that has been specially planned.

It seems to distinguish this stone building from those ordinary low houses.

This must have been the residence of a person of high status in the ancient civilization of Xishan.
Shortly after.

Led by Fox, Xu Feng finally arrived at the outside of a cluster of buildings that were undulating and arranged in a staggered manner.

"This is the core area of ​​the Xishan Civilization Underground City. The people living here should all be living in the city's high-rise buildings."

Fox looked around and suddenly walked towards a wall to the side.

Soon, he found a fox carving on the wall at the street corner.

"Look, this was left behind by Fox Two back then!"

Fox said excitedly.

It felt like revisiting a familiar place.

Xu Feng leaned closer to take a look and saw that it was drawn with an ugly "dog".

That's not a fox at all.

Fox Two chuckled: "Yes, yes, it really is! Haha, right here, we killed three Shadow Clan members!"

"The Shadow Clan?" Xu Feng asked curiously.

"Hmm, a strange creature, semi-transparent, that can walk through walls."

Many people were murdered here back then, but they were all wiped out in one move by a high-ranking lord of the Abyss Dragon Clan.

"The Abyss Dragon Clan?" Xu Feng asked in surprise.

"That's right, a race that exists in the abyss, with few members but many strong individuals."

When we were exploring the ruins, one of their young members was killed by the Shadow Clan.

The experts of the Abyss Dragon Clan went berserk and wiped out all the Shadow Clan members in the entire underground city.

We were just beast generals back then, weren't we?

Fox Big reminisced as he looked at Fox Two.

Fox Two nodded: "Yes, I remember! Back then, Big Brother had just been slept with by that vixen, and he kept complaining of back pain!"

"Slap!" Fox Big slapped Fox Two on the back of the head and shouted awkwardly, "Bullshit! When have I ever had back pain?"

"You clearly—" Fox Two covered his head in grievance.
"Alright!" Fox Da interrupted him directly, looking at Xu Feng, "Spirit Communicator, don't listen to his nonsense. Let's hurry inside. The City Lord's Mansion should be at the very back."

Xu Feng suppressed a laugh and nodded as if he hadn't heard the two brothers' conversation, saying, "Let's go."

"Back then, this ruin was rich in a type of ore that allowed us demons to directly absorb its energy to enhance our physical strength."

Therefore, this site was once very lively.

However, after thousands of years of exploration, things are becoming increasingly scarce.

By our generation, almost all the remaining minerals here had been discovered and taken away.

After that, the place gradually lost its allure of treasures and was eventually forgotten.

As the three entered the core area and went deeper, the surrounding buildings became taller and more magnificent.

Fox University provides introductions along the way.

Xu Feng then realized that the two brothers were already over three hundred years old.

Finally, a small house, quite different from the tall buildings around it, suddenly appeared in an empty square.

The existence of this house is extremely strange.

It's as if a building that shouldn't have been here was forcibly moved here by someone.

Just as Xu Feng was about to move forward.

Fox suddenly stopped him and pointed to the ground: "There are defensive mechanisms here. Be very careful. It's some kind of ancient energy weapon."

This thing is incredibly powerful; even a lord-level body couldn't withstand a single blow. Come with me.

He was talking.

Fox Two suddenly took a step back.

"laugh!"

A red line suddenly swept past Fox Two's feet, grazed his nose, and shot into the sky.

"boom!"

A burst of fire suddenly exploded from the sky.

Xu Feng and Fox Da turned around abruptly and breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Fox Er was unharmed.

Only after the parts landed did Xu Feng get a clear look at them.

The drone that was destroyed was one of his own.

"You fucking stick close!!"

Fox Big grabbed Fox Two and pulled him in front of him.

Seeing the panic in Fox Two's eyes, he comforted him, "Luckily, that little plane stepped on the landmine for you in advance."

"Thank you, psychic!" Fox Two quickly said. Xu Feng waved his hand, still shaken, and said, "Why thank me? That plane flew over automatically; I didn't even know it!"

You're really lucky, you'd better stick close.

"Uh-huh."

Fox Two glanced nervously at the ground around him, but couldn't see any difference.

immediately.

Fox suddenly took a step forward, then abruptly retreated.

It was as if it had been expected all along.

A red ray immediately shot out from the black floor tiles where he had just stepped.

The rays swept across the sky and eventually disappeared.

The moment the red ray disappeared, Fox Da Ke quickly stepped forward: "Keep up! Hurry!"

Xu Feng took a deep breath and quickly followed without hesitation.

Led by Fox, the two of them walked along a certain route in this seemingly empty square, turning left and right, sometimes forward and sometimes backward.

finally.

The three stopped ten meters away from the house.

Xu Feng asked in surprise, "Why aren't you leaving?"

"I've forgotten the route ahead," Fox said awkwardly.

Xu Feng thought for a moment: "What is the activation principle of this mechanism?"

Fox shook his head and said, "I don't know, and the location of these red lines keeps changing."

When you come, stepping on a certain floor tile might prevent it from appearing, but when you go back, it might not.

Therefore, we must proceed according to the routes summarized by our predecessors.

I memorized that route mnemonic back then.

And it's only valid if you enter from a specific place and at a specific time.

After thinking for a moment, Xu Feng nodded and said, "Let me give it a try."

Then, he gently patted the badge on the inside of his suit.

next moment.

Another Xu Feng appeared beside the three of them.

"what!"

Fox Two was startled and immediately let out a low cry, ready to attack.

But Fox Da stopped him.

"Is this a clone?" Fox asked in surprise.

“Yes,” Xu Feng nodded, “It is an illusion talisman, and also an ancient relic.”

Immediately, he lightly slid his finger across the illusion talisman, manipulating his illusion to move forward.

They had only taken one step when...

A red line shot out from the ground, instantly obliterating the illusion.

"it works!"

However, Xu Feng was quite pleasantly surprised to see this.

The fact that the illusion can activate the laser indicates that the activation method of this mechanism is some kind of sensing mechanism.

Since illusions can be created continuously, Xu Feng finally found a safe route after many attempts.

So he repeated the route that the illusion had taken when it was first wiped out.

next moment.

The moment the red line disappeared, Xu Feng immediately caught up.

Fox Big and Fox Two followed closely behind.

The three of them silently entered the low-ceilinged house without activating any red light.

"Phew—" After letting out a long breath, Xu Feng then looked around the room.

The layout of the room is very simple.

A wooden bed.

A wooden table.

In addition, there is a low stove.

There was nothing else.

It's like a small, secluded house in the countryside.

It looks almost too plain.

Have you been in this house?

Xu Feng didn't move, but stood still and looked at the two of them, asking a question.

Fox Big also pressed down hard on Fox Two's shoulders, as if afraid he would touch some dangerous mechanism: "They've been in here before, many people have been in here."

However, no one has ever found anything of value.

But I heard that back when everyone was fiercely competing for it, some experts entered this place.

Unfortunately, that person left empty-handed in the end.

This house seems to be the residence of a high-ranking member of some Western Mountain civilization.

It's somewhat like a secluded house.

There was nothing inside, nothing of great value, and the surrounding area was extremely dangerous.

So, this place gradually fell into disuse, and few people dared to come back.

Xu Feng nodded slightly, and after letting his clone walk around the room, he boldly began to explore.

Just as Hu Da had said, there was nothing in the room; it was an empty room. However, what he was looking for was not on the surface.

Xu Feng walked slowly to the only wooden table and gently tapped the lower left corner of the table four times.

Right before the eyes of Fox Big and Fox Two in shock.

Suddenly, a crack appeared in the floor tiles beneath the wooden table, revealing a downward staircase.

"Good heavens! There's a secret passage here!"

Fox was pleasantly surprised.

Fox Two leaned closer in astonishment: "I've never heard of a secret passage in here before. There must be treasure here!"

Xu Feng raised an eyebrow, about to speak, when Fox Da said directly, "Even if there is one, it belongs to Senior Yang's friend. We're just here to help him take it away."

Fox Two quickly corrected himself: "Oh right, it's Senior Yin's."

As they spoke, the two brothers looked at Xu Feng together: "Should we go in or not?"

"Enter!"

After thinking for a moment, Xu Feng immediately took out throwing knives and hovered them around his body.
At the same time, take out the wrist shield and put it on your hand.

Then, he took out his battle sword just in case.

Having made ample preparations, Fox King left Fox Two on the upper level.

He then used a stone about 1 meter long, wide, and high, which Xu Feng had previously placed in his storage ring, to block the exit in case it suddenly closed.

Then, the two quickly entered the underground passage and walked down the stone steps.

hum-

As the cold light above Xu Feng's head lit up, the passageway immediately became bright.

With the eyesight of a warrior at the general level, one can see clearly around them as long as there is even a little light.

Not to mention that the headlamp is quite bright.

Then, Xu Feng raised his hand and released two drones into the tunnel to explore first.

"Om-"

As the drone flew away, the two gradually slowed their pace.

Shortly after.

Then, many individual rooms appeared in the stone passage.

The two ventured into one of the rooms and immediately discovered some treasures that had not yet been lost to time!

"This is."

Fox took out a crystal blue bead from the rubble of a rotten wooden box.

"What is this?" Xu Feng asked curiously.

"This is a Blue Blood Bead! Legend has it that it is a crystallization of the blood of a blue-blooded dragon."

Legend has it that it contains immense power that can allow people to ascend to higher ranks out of thin air.

However, the elders once told us that these are all just legends.

Actually, this was just a rare gemstone, but it became what it is now because it was stained with the blood of some blue-blooded creatures that died in battle.

As he spoke, he tossed the bead to Xu Feng: "Take it, it should fetch a couple of bucks."

Xu Feng put away the beads and glanced at them: "Judging from the layout, this should be the room where some female creature lives."

Fox Big Gossip chuckled and said, "It seems that the place where this important figure lives in seclusion is actually a place to hide a mistress."

"Haha, that should be true, let's go."

We'll look back at these places later; let's go to the innermost part first.

Xu Feng waved his hand and continued forward.

The two skipped over twelve rooms along the way.

Finally, they arrived at a stone chamber at the deepest part of the secret passage.

What surprised both of them was...

As soon as they entered the stone chamber, the two stopped simultaneously and frowned.

The stone chamber, which was over fifty square meters in size, was almost completely empty.

Only on the floor inside the stone chamber sat a desiccated humanoid corpse.

Simultaneously.

The surrounding walls were covered with all sorts of strange and absurd symbols drawn in blood.

These symbols look as if someone had a mental breakdown and forcibly dug them out with bloodied hands.

Just one glance is enough to make one feel irritable.

"Uh, this is a bit weird, isn't it?"

Fox couldn't help but take a step back and turn to look at Xu Feng.

But they discovered that Xu Feng had already left the stone chamber sometime earlier.

He was startled and quickly withdrew: "You felt it?"

Xu Feng looked at him in surprise and asked, "What do you feel?"

Fox Da said speechlessly, "I thought you sensed some danger and that's why you retreated."

Hsu Feng gave an awkward smile: "I was just a little cautious because of the strange style inside."

Did your senior say anything to you?

Fox asked again.

As he spoke, he stuck his head out and peeked into the stone chamber.

He breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the body was still there.

For some reason, he always felt that there was something strange about the house.

And the corpse was even more unsettling.

"Yes, the senior only said that the friend suddenly lost contact."

He had something very important stored here and asked me to retrieve it.

That thing should be in a hidden compartment in the wall at the end of this stone chamber.

The senior colleague clearly stated that the hidden compartment was in the wall, but I haven't seen where it is yet.

hum-

at this time.

A buzzing sound suddenly came from behind the two of them.

Fox was startled and immediately raised his hand to swat a claw behind him.

"boom!"

Another drone has been destroyed.

Xu Feng looked at the other person speechlessly, "You did this on purpose, didn't you?"

"Sorry, sorry," Fox said, looking embarrassed. "I was a little nervous."

Xu Feng waved his hand: "Never mind, me too."

He then looked down at the tablet.

The drone has already mapped out the entire layout of this underground chamber.

He glanced around to make sure there were no other rooms he hadn't noticed yet.

Only then did they re-enter the eerie stone chamber.

"You stay at the door and be ready to provide support if anything goes wrong."

As Xu Feng spoke, he took out a huge stone from the storage space.

The stone was as tall as a person and was just enough to block the door of the stone chamber.

"This stone chamber can be sealed with just a push; hopefully, we won't need to."

Xu Feng gave Fox a few instructions.

Then he quietly slipped into the stone chamber.

Fox looked at the stone beside him and couldn't help but sigh, "You really are cautious."

Inside the stone chamber, Xu Feng spoke as he leaned against the wall and moved towards the end: "That's natural."

His gaze remained fixed on the desiccated corpse until he reached the wall at the far end.

"Click——"

After searching the wall for a short while, Xu Feng used his mental power to scan inch by inch and found the hidden compartment.

He slammed his palm against the wall.

A stone box immediately popped out from beside his palm.

The stone box contained only a rhombus-shaped crystal, which looked quite ordinary.

With a flick of his hand, Xu Feng put away the crystal and turned to float out of the stone chamber.

But after taking only two steps, he suddenly froze in place.

Under a sweep of eyes.

The dried-up corpse that was originally sitting cross-legged in the center of the stone chamber.

It has disappeared.

hum-

Xu Feng's hair immediately stood on end.

In an instant, he felt a chill run from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.

After a moment of chills, he became puzzled: "Brother Hu!"

"What's wrong?" Fox Big's voice rang out from outside the stone chamber.

"Did you see anything go out?" Xu Feng swallowed and asked.

"No, no, Brother Xu, don't play me for a fool. What do you mean?"

Fox Da's voice paused for a moment, then trembled slightly.

Xu Feng exhaled softly and suddenly released his spiritual power to probe the entire stone chamber.

But still found nothing.

The body seemed to have vanished into thin air, leaving not a trace.

However, the imprint of a seated man sitting cross-legged remained in the spot, proving that there was indeed a corpse there just now.

Xu Feng had no time to think and dashed out of the stone chamber: "Let's go!"

Fox Da shoved the stone with a "bang," blocking the door, and then quickly followed Xu Feng outside.

The two didn't even bother to take the things in the room. They rushed straight out of the secret chamber along the stone path and immediately blocked the passage with another stone.

"Retreat!" Fox Da hurriedly said as soon as he got on the ground.

Fox Two asked, puzzled, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

"The zombies down there have come back to life!"

Xu Feng succinctly uttered a sentence and then turned and walked out of the house.

He then retraced his steps back to the location where Fox had forgotten the route.

"Come with me!"

Fox took over from Xu Feng and led the way out of the square.

Only after they were far away from the square did Fox Two ask about what had happened down there.

When he heard the corpse disappear, Fox Two's fur stood on end: "A ghost!?"

"You ghost my foot!"

Fox looked around guiltily.

"I estimate that the body decomposed and turned to ash due to changes in the air."

Or perhaps, it was simply an illusion.

"An illusion?" Xu Feng raised an eyebrow. "You mean it was a phantom?"

This is possible.

Fox Da said thoughtfully, "Yes, I once heard the clan elders mention that some extremely powerful experts stayed in a certain place for a long time."

It may even leave a residual image in time and space, like the mark of a powerful being.

Whenever the surrounding environment changes, it causes changes in the Earth's magnetic field, thus recreating the scene.

Xu Feng suddenly realized, "Now I understand, it's the videotape effect."

"What is that?" Fox asked, puzzled.

Xu Feng explained, "Oh, it's nothing. It's a legendary phenomenon, but the principle is similar to what you described."

Fox waved his hand: "But these are all just my guesses. I don't know the specifics. Let's leave first."

For some reason, ever since what happened earlier, he felt like someone was watching him.

Xu Feng nodded in agreement and said, "Let's go, let's get out of here first."

He was also very uneasy.
