C175 Something's Wrong
"Hmm?"
Zhu Ziqiao was slightly startled when she heard this. She immediately reacted and nodded and said, "Indeed! The 20 plus Cultivating Warrior that entered just now all appeared one by one. Could it be that this entrance can only accommodate one person? "
"It should not be just that. Don't forget, we just entered together. However, the moment I entered the entrance, my vision blurred. It was as if my body had entered a pool of water, and I couldn't see what exactly happened. In just a few breaths of time, we became one after the other. "
Lin Cheng frowned slightly and analyzed, "In that case, the entrance can obviously accommodate multiple people at the same time, but if you want to pass through, you should only be able to pass through one at a time."
Zhu Ziqiao nodded, "That's right!"
"If that is the case, we must be careful." Lin Cheng could not help saying, "If there is an ambush at the entrance, then it is a sure-kill situation!"
"Ambush?!"
Zhu Ziqiao's heart shivered when she heard this. Indeed, the entrance could only allow one person to pass at a time. Furthermore, when they passed through the entrance, they could not see anything in their line of sight. Her body was also out of her control. It was as if she was entangled in a sticky pond.
Under such circumstances, if someone suddenly attacked the moment the person passed through the entrance... It was truly a surprise attack. It was enough to pose a great threat to the people at the entrance. If the difference in strength was not too great, one could even kill them on the spot!
"In the future, if you approach this place, you must be careful." Lin Cheng said in a low voice.
The two of them silently memorized the situation in this place. They must be extra careful when passing through this place in the future.
As the disciples of Unification Sect entered the secret realm, more and more silhouettes appeared in the dense forest.
Similar to Lin Cheng and Lin Cheng, the first reaction of most of them when entering the secret realm was to find a safe place to hide and observe the environment.
And in this dense forest, the towering trees were the safest place.
Lin Cheng and Lin Cheng saw many people coming in from behind like monkeys, quickly and agilely climbing the trees.
"Disciples of Unification Sect, gather at my place!"
A low shout was suddenly heard. A figure appeared in a slightly open area in the dense forest.
Lin Cheng immediately recognized this person. He was the leader of the Cultivating Warrior. He seemed to be called Tai Wenxing. When they were waiting outside the entrance of the secret realm for the secret realm to open, Tai Wenxing was the leader of the group of 70 Cultivating Warriors.
"Hu!"
"Ceng! Ceng! Ceng!"
Just as these thoughts flashed across Lin Cheng's mind, many of them jumped down from nearby trees. Judging from their clothes, they were all disciples of the Unification Sect.
"Little girl, let's go down as well." Lin Cheng said.
"En."
Zhu Ziqiao nodded and jumped down with Lin Cheng.
As soon as the two of them appeared, they attracted the attention of many people. Not only because Zhu Ziqiao's face was really moving, but also because the Yuan energy ripples on her body were extremely strong. It caused many Cultivating Warriors to faintly feel a trace of pressure.
This couldn't help but cause people to be shocked.
One should know that these Cultivating Warriors were selected from the numerous outer circle disciples of the Unification Sect. Each of them had a profound Cultivation Level and powerful combat strength. The weakest amongst them was at least at the eighth level of the Chakra Stage.
Then, if it could make them feel a trace of pressure, then what kind of Cultivation Level would this beautiful and frightening girl have?
On the other hand, not many people cared about Lin Cheng, because the Yuan energy fluctuations coming from his body were very ordinary. It was far from being as strong as the Yuan energy fluctuations coming from Zhu Ziqiao's body.
"Everyone, now that we are in the secret realm, we will have to face unknown dangers. Therefore, I hope that all of you can work together and complete the mission that our sect entrusted to us. Finally, we will be able to leave safely."
Tai Wenxing said in a clear voice, "We know nothing about the current situation here. I won't say much. All the Cultivating Warrior were in charge of guarding immediately. At the same time, they were searching for all available materials in the vicinity. The ten of you, once you get the ingredients, immediately begin concocting the Mortal Pill Master. Remember, you must concoct enough to replenish essence energy as well as pill that can suspend one's life! "
"Yes!"
"Senior Brother Tai, please rest assured, we will definitely work together! "
All the Cultivating Warrior immediately nodded their heads in agreement.
Tai Wenxing waved his hand. "Let's go!"
All the Cultivating Warrior immediately spread out and carefully moved forward, surrounding Lin Cheng and the others in the middle.
"Remember, don't go too deep."
Tai Wenxing reminded them, then said to Lin Cheng and the others, "Everyone, let's begin."
Everyone started to search for herbs. Lin Cheng and the other ten alchemists were considered to be people who needed protection. Therefore, they didn't need to go outside. They could only search for herbs and ingredients in the circle of Cultivating Warrior. The Cultivating Warrior they brought followed beside them. At this moment, Zhu Ziqiao was following beside Lin Cheng. With a vigilant expression, Su Mingsheng naturally returned to Zhou Chuan's side.
Lin Cheng was not in a hurry to search for the medicinal ingredients. Instead, he took out a porcelain bottle from his pocket and removed the cork. Immediately, a faint fragrance drifted out from the bottle. It was the fragrance of the pill.
This was the pill that Lin Cheng carried with him. He did not place all of the pill in the Storage Bag. Because he also did not know how dangerous the mystic realm was. What if he encountered danger the moment he entered? He probably didn't even have the time to open the Storage Bag and take the pill. Thus, he carried a portion of the pill with him. In case of emergencies.
However, when he smelled this fragrance, Lin Cheng could not help but furrow his brows.
He only needed a slight sniff to know that this fragrance was not right. Compared to when the pill had just been refined, it was much fainter. From this extremely faint fragrance, Lin Cheng realized that the medicinal properties of the pill inside were likely much better.
He immediately poured out one and placed it in his mouth. After a few breaths, he could not help but frown again.
"The medicinal effects are only one or two tenths of the original!"
The medicinal effect of the pill in the bottle actually reduced greatly. It could even barely reach 20% of the original medicinal effect!
Furthermore, not only that, Lin Cheng could clearly feel it. At this moment, there was only a little bit of medicinal effect left, but it was still spreading outwards. If this continued, it wouldn't take more than two hours. These pills would all become useless useless pills!
"No wonder the Unification Sect wants to recruit alchemists from the outside world. Even if they bring Mortal Pills in, they would still turn into useless pills. If there were no alchemists refining pill on the spot, there would be no pill that could be used in this secret realm!"
Lin Cheng couldn't help but be amazed. What kind of world was this secret realm? Why was there such a shocking change?
"That's right!"
0
Lin Cheng's heart suddenly moved. He could not help but think, "Since the pill that I brought from the outside world cannot be used, then the pill that I refined in the mystic realm must be able to be used?"
Sensing that the pill in the bottle was still dissipating the medicinal properties, Lin Cheng couldn't help but suspect that even if he refined the pill on the spot, the medicinal properties would also quickly disperse.
"Younger brother!"
Zhou Chuan's voice rang out from the side in a low voice, "Be careful, this isn't a place where one is distracted. The two of us shouldn't be too far away."
Lin Cheng came back to his senses and nodded. He said, "We have to be careful."
Both of their eyes swept across the surroundings and the ground, searching for ingredients that could be used to concoct pills. Zhou Chuan suddenly asked in a low voice, "Brother, do you feel that something is wrong?"
Lin Cheng nodded. "It's too quiet!"
Zhou Chuan's feet paused and his expression changed slightly. "You also noticed it?"
"Be careful." Lin Cheng nodded slightly and said.
In fact, it had only been a short while since he came in. He and Zhu Ziqiao had already noticed that something was wrong. In the dense forest. The towering trees were lush with leaves and the vines on the ground were meandering. It was a beautiful picture of prosperity.
However, there was not a single living creature in this thriving life force. Not to mention the wild beasts, the Demonic Beast, even the birds and insects, as well as the mice and insects, were nowhere to be seen.
This was a little too abnormal!
In Lin Cheng's memory, there were only two places where this kind of situation would occur.
First, this was the territory of some extremely powerful ferocious beast, or some Demonic Beast. The terrifying pressure caused those small creatures, snakes, insects, mice and the others to not dare approach.
The other situation... was death!
Or, it could be said to be a land of death!
This type of danger zone was filled with death energy. Apart from extremely toxic objects, no other creature could survive. This type of situation would also appear in that type of strange and terrifying place.
But looking at the surrounding tall trees and the grass vines on the ground that were full of life force, Lin Cheng's heart could not help but tighten.
"Elder Brother Zhou, we might have entered the territory of some powerful living being." Lin Cheng said in a low voice.
"What?!"
Zhou Chuan's expression changed, "A powerful creature? What are you referring to? A ferocious beast, or a Demonic Beast?"
Lin Cheng shook his head and said, "I don't know what kind of creature it is, but this is just my guess. Of course, there might be other reasons that I don't know..."
"Ah!"
Suddenly, a shrill cry came from afar.
It was a blood-curdling scream, but at the same time, it was so sudden that everyone's hearts began to thump.
"What happened?!"
Tai Wenxing's facial expression suddenly changed, and he asked in a loud voice.
At the same time, he quickly scanned the surroundings, and found that no one from the Unification Sect had been attacked. Everyone couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.
"Be careful!"
Tai Wenxing shouted in a low voice and said to two of the Cultivating Warrior, "Go and see what's going on. Be careful."
The two Cultivating Warriors's nerves were also tense, and their expressions were not very good. Clearly, they were startled by the sudden miserable cry just now. When they heard Tai Wenxing's words, the two of them nodded their heads and carefully headed towards the source of the scream.
"Roar!"
Suddenly!
A deep roar was heard, and everyone's expressions changed drastically.
This low roar carried an extremely great pressure, and when it sounded, it was as if a sleeping ancient beast had been enraged and was about to devour someone.
