Chapter 552 Ancient Puppet Beast

Looking at the grassy valley below, the surging river, as if it were a beautiful holy land on earth, Song Qingming couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

In the past, although the space in the several secret realms he had entered was also large, most of the places in the secret realms looked very desolate. However, the "Tower of Babel" he entered this time gave him a completely different intuitive feeling. On the surface, it was not like what was recorded in the notebook. It was a dangerous secret realm full of dangers.

If the talisman in his hand had not clearly told Song Qingming that he was getting closer and closer to Zhao Menglian's location, and seeing the scene below him that was no different from the outside world, Song Qingming would probably have begun to doubt whether he had fallen into an illusion as soon as he entered.

After flying forward for about ten miles, Song Qingming quickly came to a small hill covered with various flowers and plants according to the instructions of the talisman.

After looking around, just when Song Qingming showed a trace of doubt on his face, a white mist suddenly appeared in the flowers on one side of the hillside. Zhao Menglian, who was wearing a palace dress and smiling, and a middle-aged man in a gray Taoist robe walked out of the white mist.

Seeing the two people who suddenly appeared, Song Qingming immediately smiled and took the initiative to step forward and slightly bowed.

"Senior Sister Zhao, Fellow Daoist Yun!"

"Junior Brother Song came so quickly. I guess Junior Brother Jin and the others should not be far away." Zhao Menglian saw Song Qingming coming over, and her face also showed a trace of joy.

The gray-robed man standing next to Zhao Menglian also immediately bowed to Song Qingming and greeted him with a smile.

In addition to the three of them, Zhao Menglian and Jin Ziyuan also made an appointment with a good friend each when they entered the "Babel Tower" this time. The man surnamed Yun, named Yun Xinhe, was one of them. He and Zhao Menglian were also good friends who had known each other for many years.

Like Jin Ziyuan, Yun Xinhe also has the fourth level of Jindan cultivation. He comes from a Jindan sect in a small country in the south of Weiguo. There are only two Jindan cultivators in the sect, including him.

This time, if it weren't for Zhao Menglian's active invitation, Yun Xinhe would not dare to come to the dangerous place of "Tiantian Tower" alone to try his luck.

A small sect like theirs only relies on two or three Jindan ancestors to support the scene. Once a Jindan cultivator is suddenly lost, the sect will inevitably decline quickly. Without much confidence, they generally don't dare to participate too much in the "Tiantian Tower", a secret realm where Yuanying forces compete for spiritual objects.

Another person who accepted Jin Ziyuan's invitation was a casual cultivator of the third level of Jindan like Song Qingming, with the Taoist name Qingluo Zhenren, but this person is much older than Song Qingming, and has been in the Jindan stage for nearly two hundred years. He is also a person with rich experience in fighting.

"Junior Brother Song, it might be a little unsafe to keep standing outside and talking. Let's go back to the formation first!" After greeting Song Qingming, Zhao Menglian immediately took him back to the fog where she had just appeared.

This third-level hidden illusion formation was borrowed by Zhao Menglian from Bai Yuxian. Even if Song Qingming, whose spiritual sense is comparable to that of a late Jindan cultivator, was hiding in the formation, it would be difficult to find him for a while.

In the sky thousands of miles away from Song Qingming's location, a blue light flew quickly and landed on a hill below, revealing a gray giant bird.

After the giant bird carefully looked around, one of its huge wings opened directly, and said respectfully: "Your Highness, there is no one around here, it is safe!"

As soon as Long Feng finished speaking, a red light flew out from his huge wings and turned into a woman in red with a bit of displeasure on her face.

"Did you see him come in?"

Faced with Huo Feng's inquiry, Long Feng nodded and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness. I saw him before he came in. Although the people who traveled with him had average cultivation, they were not weaklings. I think there shouldn't be any big problems."

"Well! Let's go first. There are many people coming in this floor now. You should be careful and try not to be targeted by others." Huo Feng took out a map and looked at it, then pointed forward with her jade hand.

"Don't worry, Your Highness. As long as I don't meet those guys in the Nascent Soul stage, there shouldn't be anyone here who can stop me." After Long Feng finished speaking, his wings slightly opened, and soon the Fire Phoenix turned into a red light and returned to his wings.

After Song Qingming and Zhao Menglian met up, they waited on the hillside for about a cup of tea, and soon Jin Ziyuan and Qing Luo Zhenren also arrived here one after another.

Before the five people got together, they didn't encounter any danger, and they immediately relaxed a little. In this secret realm where almost all the cultivators above the Jindan level entered, it was quite dangerous for any one of them to walk alone in it.

But after the five people got together, they could barely be regarded as a strong force in it. Even if they encountered a strong man in the late Jindan stage, they would not be afraid of him with the combined efforts of several people.

"Now that there are so many people entering the tower, it may be a little difficult to find something in the first floor. Let's just find a way to find the teleportation array to the upper floor and go directly to the second floor.

I have just checked the map drawn in the sect's notes. We are currently located on the first floor, close to the southeast. The nearest teleportation point should be only a few hundred miles away. "

After hearing Zhao Menglian's analysis, Yun Xinhe immediately nodded and said, "Daoyou Zhao is right. There will definitely be more good things to be found on the second floor than on the first floor. I agree with her proposal!"

"I also agree with Senior Sister Zhao. After all, we have a map in hand, and we can act much faster than those casual cultivators. As long as we can successfully find the teleportation array and enter the second floor one step faster than others, the probability of us finding good things will also be greatly increased. "

Jin Ziyuan had just finished speaking when Song Qingming and Qingluo Zhenren nodded and agreed with Zhao Menglian's idea. After discussing it, they each stepped on the escape light and flew directly to the southeast.

Half an hour later, Song Qingming and others came to the outside of an ancient palace that was somewhat dilapidated.

After carefully looking around the palace and looking at the map in his hand, Zhao Menglian nodded slightly to everyone and said, "It's right here. The teleportation array to the second floor is in this palace. However, according to the records in the sect's classics, this palace is guarded by some powerful ancient puppet beasts. Everyone should be careful after entering. "

Zhao Menglian put away the map in her hand, gave a few instructions to everyone, and then led the way into the palace in front of them.

Except for the gravel on the ground and some ancient murals on the wall, the entire hall was empty, basically nothing.

Seeing that the place had already been cleared out by the senior monks, Jin Ziyuan and Qing Luo Zhenren looked around the hall and sighed with disappointment.

Everyone walked through the hall in front and came to a long corridor made of many green boulders. Zhao Menglian, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and looked at a pile of rocks lying on the ground in front.

Zhao Menglian's unusual behavior immediately attracted the attention of Jin Ziyuan and others behind her. After everyone stepped forward and carefully checked, they found that there was still a trace of weak spiritual power on the pile of rocks.

"Sister Zhao, is this a puppet beast? ”

Zhao Menglian nodded slightly and said: "Yes, this is the ancient puppet beast recorded in the classics. This kind of puppet beast is different from those we see outside. Even if there is no cultivator controlling them, they can automatically attack the enemy.

This puppet beast seems to have been destroyed not long ago. Could it be that someone has entered here before us? "

Hearing what Zhao Menglian said, Qingluo Zhenren on the side immediately smiled and said: "Haha! Anyway, there is nothing good in here. It is good that someone helped us explore the way in advance. It can save us a lot of trouble. "

Zhao Menglian shook his head slightly and said: "Qingluo Daoist, don't be happy too early. The restrictions in this hall are very powerful. Even if someone solves these puppet beasts and breaks through, they will recover and reappear soon. "

"Oh! This is a bit unexpected. It seems that the person who set up this restriction is also intentionally testing every cultivator who enters the tower, so as not to let those who are too weak enter the next level at will. "Master Qingluo smiled awkwardly.

"Haha! There are so many monks entering the tower this time. Maybe one of the seniors happened to be nearby when he came in, so he got through here before us. Whether we can benefit from it or not, it has nothing to do with us. Let's leave here quickly and go to the first floor! "

Looking at Jin Ziyuan who was a little impatient beside him, Zhao Menglian smiled and nodded slightly, not caring about the destroyed puppet beast on the ground, and continued to lead everyone forward to a huge stone chamber.

In the middle of this stone chamber, there was a small magic circle that was emitting bursts of white light. Song Qingming recognized it immediately after just one glance. This was a small teleportation array.

Around the teleportation array, there were dozens of stone statues of various animals, forming several circular rings around the teleportation array in the middle.

Seeing this scene, Song Qingming and the others looked at each other, and the real person Qingluo, who had been eager to show off in front of everyone, took the lead and took out a yellow talisman directly from his body. After a quick spell, the talisman in his hand suddenly emitted a burst of golden light and turned into a human-shaped puppet with almost the same height and appearance as him.

"Go! "

As Master Qing Luo gave an order, the humanoid spirit puppet nodded slightly at him, a silver shield appeared in its hand, and it strode towards the teleportation array.
