Chapter 506: The Dark Peacock Is the Nan Family's Spiritual Creature?

What Ji Xun and the others didn't know was that while they were fighting fiercely, something suddenly happened in the ancient palace on the sixteenth floor of the Dead Realm.

Originally, around the Temple of the Sun, the three outer god sects, the Holy See, the Light Sect, and the Scarlet Sect, were fighting fiercely.

However, I don't know what happened. In the Holy Holy See camp, which was originally crowded and occupying the core of the temple, several figures suddenly burst out and ran away from the palace quickly, rushing towards the fifteenth floor.

In the darkness, several mysterious figures happened to see this scene, and they were all surprised.

Ji Xun, the two leaders, both knew each other.

One is Gustave, associate dean of the Royal Academy's School of History.

There is also a man with a pale face and red lips as bright as blood, it is Xie Guozhong.

The rest are also the top leaders of the two heretical sects.

Everyone was extremely puzzled as they watched the ninth-level red-clothed archbishop leading several masters to evacuate the camp in a hurry.

If this was the case, they would not be able to defeat the Holy See.

Unexpectedly, people evacuated?

"It's strange that the people from the Holy See actually evacuated at this moment? They left in such a hurry. Could it be that something happened?"

"Now that the experts from the Holy See's camp are gone, should we destroy the camp?"

"Could it be a conspiracy? Deliberately luring us to attack the camp?"

"If it's a conspiracy, it's too crude. Do they think we will be fooled?"

"."

Now as long as they rush over, they can immediately slaughter the people of the Holy See.

But looking at the Holy Holy See camp without experts, the two heretical sects hesitated.

This kind of anomaly makes people always feel that there is something wrong somewhere.

Even the knowledgeable and wise Gustav looked confused.

He didn't understand why the people from the Holy See suddenly withdrew, and said to himself: "It's strange. Now that the temple is competing for the key to integrity, it's impossible for the people from the Holy See to let go. Could it be that something happened to the higher-ups of the Holy See?"

He couldn't understand, so he turned to look at Xie Guozhong: "Your Excellency, what do you think?"

Xie Guozhong thought of something, and his expression showed incredulity: "I have thought of a possibility. Perhaps the split god clone used by Dragon God Airel to extend his life was killed."

"???"

When Gustav heard this, his expression was obviously startled. He was stunned for a moment and then said: "You mean, the Third Heavenly Dragon Holy Son Cheresa was killed?"

Others didn't know the origin of the Holy Son of Heavenly Dragon, but they knew it very well.

This is the highest secret of the Holy See.

Ceresa is not an ordinary dragonborn, but the secret clone of the dragon god Airel who is about to expire.

It can be said to be a descendant, or it can be said to be a continuation of his bloodline and will.

As soon as Gustave spoke, he immediately shook his head and said: "It's impossible. That guy has many treasures on him. Even if we take action personally, we may not be able to kill him."

But before he finished speaking, he fell into deep thought.

After thinking about it, this ruins can really make the red archbishop desperate, and it seems that this is the only reason.

Xie Guozhong thought of something, and a smile appeared on his face: "Whether it is true or not, it is a good thing for us now. If we can win this Sun Temple, the gate to the underworld can also be opened."

When he heard about the Gate to the Underworld, Gustave looked solemn and said, "Yeah. Then let's give it a try!"

With the facts before their eyes, the two groups headed straight towards the camp without any further hesitation.

Mrs. Mister was sent by Xie Guozhong to find Ji Xun and others.

He also knew that Ji Xun could definitely guess what he was thinking.

Originally, they just thought that Ji Xun and the others could plan around the Holy Son of Heavenly Dragon, contain the main force of the Holy See, and maybe create some opportunities.

Unexpectedly, they actually killed the Holy Son directly?

Xie Guozhong felt incredible when he thought of this, but suddenly he narrowed his eyes with a cold light, as if he thought of something again: Could it be that those guys from the Hermitage took action?

On the other side, in the fifteenth-story flame thorn forest.

A group of people are running wildly.

Ji Xun dared to kill, of course he knew the consequences of killing.

Thanks to Ivan's storage space, the body of the Holy Son was put away and the causal connection was cut off. Otherwise, even if they kill the enemy, they won't be able to take anything away.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of miles later, there was already a primitive jungle all around.

Hundred-meter-tall giant trees can be seen everywhere, and the thorny tree's hot dark aura perfectly conceals everyone's aura.

In this ruins, even if the ninth level came, they would not dare to pursue them without restraint.

After running for a while, no one caught up, and Ji Xun knew that he was safe for the time being.

Looking at the markings on the map, it seemed that they were not far from the secret passage leading to the sixteenth floor.

However, the map is not precise. The direction is correct, but we still need to look carefully for the details.

No one knows whether the terrain here has changed over hundreds of thousands of years.

No one was chasing them, everyone was injured, so they were no longer in a hurry and just walked slowly in the forest.

As they walked, they chatted.

"What a coincidence. The direction in which the [Underworld Peacock] escaped is similar to the route on the map. We may still be able to catch the peacock."

"Don't be careless. There are many hell monsters in this forest, and there are many that are more powerful than that peacock."

"Well, everyone, please be careful. I always felt that the previous battle was too noisy, as if some monster in the forest was awakened."

"."

They had just experienced a big battle and everyone seemed very excited.

Especially after seeing the exaggerated fighting power of Ji Xun and Qin Rushi, Bonnie and other revolutionary army cadres are still excited.

They reviewed the previous battles and listened to Ji Xun's description of the details, which made them more and more amazed at the difficulty of victory.

Especially at the end, Ji Xun's mouth forced the Heavenly Dragon Saint to expose his flaws. Everyone was amazed.

This kind of battle is a rare life experience for everyone.

Ji Xun was very calm, stepping on the soft dead leaves and walking leisurely.

Because [Nether Peacock] had the mark of the blood clan on his body and the direction was similar to their destination, he chased all the way.

This kind of high-level material has been seriously injured, there is no reason not to find a way to get it.

The road that the Warcraft Lord can take is of course relatively safe, and everyone has not encountered any trouble along the way.

But suddenly, there was a slight sound of fighting in the forest ahead.

Everyone stopped cautiously.

Mrs. Mist released the bats for reconnaissance, and soon her expression brightened. She said to Ji Xun: "Most of the noise came from a cave about three kilometers ahead. There are feathers of the light of annihilation. It should be the [Nether Peacock]."

When everyone heard this, their expressions instantly showed joy.

It seems that they have mistakenly entered the territory of other monster lords, so they started fighting.

Bonnie and the others also sharpened their knives and talked excitedly.

"Hahaha, if they can fight with the Nether Peacock, they are probably some kind of Warcraft lord. This time we may be able to collect more top-level materials."

"Don't be careless. If I were that peacock, I would know that I couldn't escape, and I might choose some dangerous environment suitable for my escape."

"."

Although everyone was careful, they all looked confident, probably because of the fighting power shown by Ji Xun and Qin Rushi in the previous battle.

Although Ji Xun felt that he should be cautious, he didn't feel dangerous.

The monster couldn't be too strong to fight so fiercely with the seriously injured Nether Peacock.

The group carefully moved towards the direction where the battle took place.

Soon, some huge caves that led to the underground like mines appeared in the dense forest.

There was still a fierce battle in the cave, and everyone did not rush in, but carefully observed the surroundings.

However, as they watched, they were surprised.

Suddenly, Uncle Dong, who was scouting on the treetops, found something and said in surprise: "Leader, Brother Ji Xun, come up and take a look! This seems to be the location marked on the map!"

Ji Xun also jumped onto the tree trunk after hearing it.

Only then did they realize that there was not only one entrance to the cave in front of them, but three in total.

From a high place, it looked like a skull with a diameter of nearly one kilometer.

Isn't this the entrance to the mysterious tunnel marked on the map?

Everyone also discovered this and felt lucky to find the destination so smoothly.

Before, they were still guessing what the coordinates of the skull on the map referred to.

Now it turns out to be a pictographic pattern.

Qin Rushi looked at the entrance of the cave and instinctively became alert: "Why does this cave entrance feel like the head of some humanoid creature? And why did this dark peacock come to this cave?"

Ji Xun also felt that this place was full of mystery, and he became interested: "Such a big head, I'm afraid only the ancient giants in myths and legends have it."

Whatever it is, it aroused his strong interest.

Before everyone could observe more, the fighting in the cave suddenly stopped.

Ji Xun frowned and made a decision immediately, "Let's go in and take a look!"

Qin Rushi also nodded: "Yes."

If the dark peacock was defeated, if they really went too late, their spoils might be eaten by other monsters.

The two led the way, and Bonnie and several teammates followed them without hesitation and rushed directly into the cave.

As soon as they entered the cave, there was no red light emitted by the flame thorn tree, and the surroundings became dark.

Looking closely, there were black shiny stones on the rock wall, which looked like an unknown ore.

Originally, this kind of dark cave was the main environment of vampires, and the scout bats driven by Mrs. Mist could also come in handy.

However, they soon found the problem.

Because the cave was full of huge spider webs.

It was a kind of spider web that was difficult to sense even with the sound wave perception of bats, and it was extremely sticky.

As soon as the bats rushed in, they were immediately stuck.

Even if they were not stuck, they were wiped out after turning around in the cave.

Bonnie knew the goods and immediately got excited: "Oh, these spider webs are good stuff!"

She has been studying poisons for many years, and recognized at a glance that these spider webs are rare high-end materials, "This stickiness and toughness. Wow, the best spider web materials I have seen before are not as good as this! It's simply the best material!"

Spider webs have a wide range of uses. The most commonly used is the magic material of the spell [Spider Web Spell], and some high-end textile materials.

The high-end spider web material that Ji Xun had seen in Juling City before cost one silver coin per gram.

It's everywhere here.

There were literally silver coins all over the ground.

No wonder Bonnie was so excited.

The group did not stop and continued to move forward. The spider webs around them became more and more numerous and denser.

The ground was sticky like syrup, and shoes could be torn off when walking.

Fortunately, Bonnie, the poison master, had a way to prevent stickiness. She led the way in front, and the group went deeper.

Soon, they saw traces of a battle.

The rock wall was full of holes left by [Nirvana Divine Light Feathers], and Bonnie in front also exclaimed: "Ji Xun, come and see, what kind of spider is this?"

Ji Xun walked over and saw several spider corpses the size of calves.

Green blood flowed from the wounds on the corpse, black venom dripped from a pair of furry claws, and the eight legs were spread out seven to eight meters.

The most iconic thing is that there is a strange pattern like a human face on the back of the spider, as if this is the head, it is more like an eight-clawed monster with a human face.

The poison that even Bonnie didn't recognize must be a rare species.

Ji Xun looked at a few iconic features and said in a very positive tone: "This is [Hell's Human-Faced Demon Spider], a tribal monster. Not only good at hunting toxins and spider silk, but also a great threat to mental pollution. Adulthood Three It looks like a fourth-level person. To be able to grow so big is obviously due to giant transformation."

It's another kind of hell creature that can't be seen outside.

Everyone was not surprised when they listened to Ji Xun's popular science.

I have seen too many monsters from hell, and seeing some more seems to be nothing special.

Instead, the type of monster was determined, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

It looked like they had broken into a spider lair.

Since it is a lair, there will be no other monsters.

Ji Xun thought so too.

After confirming the type of monster, many risks can be anticipated.

They didn't want the [Peacock] that they had managed to injure badly to be eaten by a group of spiders, so the group of people immediately stepped up their pace towards the depths of the cave.

Soon, rustling sounds came from the dark cave. It was obvious that the spiders had discovered the intruder, and the swarm came closer.

Not only were everyone not surprised, but they became excited.

"The [Underworld Peacock] is quite smart. It doesn't look like he entered here by mistake, but he originally wanted to use these [Hell's Man-Faced Demon Spiders] to stop us."

"It seems that the peacock is not dead yet. Maybe he is hiding."

"Hahaha, I'm going to be rich. With so many spiders, how much material do I need to collect?"

"Yeah. It's hard to find a group of people. I hope there are more of them."

"."

The most excited one was Bonnie, who started decorating with the poison jar.

In the blink of an eye, countless dense red eyes appeared at the end of the field of vision.

Ji Xun's vision clearly saw that there were countless giant spiders on the rock wall with furry legs, surging towards them like a tide.

Before he could take action, Bonnie and several cadres used all their methods and started killing indiscriminately in excitement.

In an instant, the sword energy was flowing freely and spells were flying randomly.

In the blink of an eye, broken limbs and broken arms were flying around, and spider corpses were falling like raindrops.

Bonnie's performance in the previous battles was inconspicuous because of the level gap.

Now it's easy to deal with these spiders.

Chopping melons and vegetables, all the way.

After Ji Xun took a few glances, he had no intention of taking action himself.

As expected, they were all third-, fourth-, and fifth-level spiders, and occasionally a sixth-level elite could be seen.

Although there are many in number, in the face of well-prepared elite groups, they are still killing indiscriminately like mowing grass.

The toxins and webs of this [Hell's Man-Faced Demon Spider] are almost no threat due to Bonnie's presence; mental pollution can also be resisted with potions; the spider's triple attack method is not effective against Ji Xun and his party, and it soon becomes a harvesting site .

The monsters in the Dead Zone have a high probability of producing magic cores, and the materials are all of the best quality.

Everyone went deep and gained a lot.

However, as he saw more and more spiders, and when there were so many corpses blocking the cave, Ji Xun vaguely realized that he could not continue.

He always felt that [Underworld Peacock] wanted them to kill these spiders on purpose, and there might be some hidden dangers.

After some discussion, the others stayed where they were and slowly cleaned up, while Ji Xun, Qin Rushi and Mrs. Mister rushed towards the depths of the cave.

"Whoosh!"

The wind sounded rapidly in my ears.

Mrs. Mister was able to pinpoint the location of the [Underworld Peacock], and Ji Xun and Intrusive followed her all the way.

They ignored the spiders, and those cobwebs did not pose much of a hindrance to the three high-level experts with extremely high agility attributes.

The three of them had a smooth journey and were very fast.

Ji Xun walked quickly through the air and observed along the way.

He became more and more curious, who left that map hundreds of thousands of years ago?

Not long after, Mrs. Mist suddenly said: "It's right in front!"

Ji Xun and Qin Ru were also cautious.

Although in their eyes, a severely injured [Dark Peacock] was no longer a threat, but there was no guarantee that it would have any means left.

In the blink of an eye, Ji Xun also quietly discovered that the rugged rock walls around him had traces of artificial carvings.

"remains?"

Only then did he realize that the cave just now was connected to an ancient ruins.

Before he could think about it, he looked at what looked like sleeping bags hanging in the void around him.

Like the fruits on a tree, they are densely packed and countless.

If you look closely, you will see that it is a bag woven by spider webs, and inside it is the prey hunted by spiders.

As soon as Ji Xun saw this posture, he guessed that this was the nest of the spider group.

It was even the peacock who deliberately lured them here.

But I probably didn't expect several humans to arrive so quickly, and before they were ready, they bumped into each other.

Ji Xun saw the panic concealed by determination on its face.

However, there was something else he didn't expect.

What was in front of him now was not a white peacock, but a beautiful silver-haired woman with some feathers covering her body.

Ji Xun and Qin Rushi had heard Old Man Xu boast that the [Underworld Peacock] was very beautiful when transformed.

Now seeing it, it was true.

Ji Xun was not impressed by beauty.

The sirens, harpies, gorgons, and succubi in myths and legends are all dangerous species known for their beauty.

They are not considered human just because they are in human form.

They feed on humans, and humans use them as materials, and this has been the case for countless years.

They will never show mercy when they attack each other.

Ji Xun was surprised that the Underworld Peacock, who was transformed into a human form and ready to fight desperately, had a unique petal mark on his forehead!

At this moment, he quickly stopped Qin Rushi and Mrs. Mist: "Don't do it yet!"

The two women were stunned and looked at him with their heads tilted, not knowing why.

Seeing that a conflict was about to break out, Ji Xun quickly took out a scroll.

He didn't expect to see this mark in this dead zone.

If it wasn't a coincidence, then the mark on the forehead of the Dark Peacock was the unique contract mark of the Nan family!

He and Nan Jing were very familiar with each other and had seen this mark countless times.

In other words,

the Dark Peacock in front of him was very likely to be the spiritual creature of the Nan family!

At least there was a connection!

The Dark Peacock was already shining with the light of annihilation, ready to fight to the death, but when it looked at the contract mark on the scroll that Ji Xun took out, it seemed to recognize it and suddenly froze.

Ji Xun keenly captured its micro-expression and was sure that he had guessed it right!

In an instant, a flash of inspiration seemed to flash in his mind, and some information fragments from ancient times were connected.

The Nan family has a safe coordinate in the underworld.

And this dead zone can just connect to the underworld.

Another contracted monster related to the Nan family appeared.
