have to say.
Some things are just full of coincidences.
After seeing the map drawn by Chen Jing using energy, the mouse named Jerry immediately determined that the "Old Treasure House" marked on the map was the location of the dungeon.
"When the old descendants chose to build the city there, does it have anything to do with the old treasure house?"
"have no idea."
"Have they already found the treasure house, so they are able to unite to expel those polluting species?"
"If they really find that treasure house, I'm afraid those polluted species will not only be expelled. Maybe they would have started to conquer this continent thousands of years ago, and organizations like the Parliament would have no chance to rise. .”
…
On the way to the Styx, Chen Jing had been chatting with "him" about the underground city, especially the connection between the Paradise City and the old treasure house.
No matter how he thought about it... Chen Jing felt that those old descendants must have discovered something underground, and the ancient gods of the Western Continent were summoned from the coordinates of the old treasure house.
"My dear grandson, you said that the ancient god didn't want us to go to the dungeon, saying that it was its lair...could this have something to do with the old treasure house?"
Sitting on Bai Aji's back, Chen Bofu stared intently at the undulating mountains in the distance, feeling as if the surface of the Western Continent had turned into liquid, undulating like the tide in the sea.
This is a vision caused by the appearance of ancient gods.
When he, Randolph and others broke into the Western Continent, he had seen such a chilling scene. He did not expect that it would still be like this after so many years, and... this ancient god seemed to be much stronger than before.
The last time I came to the Western Continent, the anomalies caused by the ancient gods covered hundreds of kilometers. In that area, everything was integrated with the ancient gods. Almost every loess, sand and stone turned into the ancient gods. a part of.
But this time.
At least thousands of kilometers of land have been "alienated" by it.
"It should know about the old treasure house." Chen Jing calmly stared at the winding and twisting mountains in front of him and said softly, "So it doesn't want us to go, it's that simple."
"Then if we go now..." Chen Boxu frowned.
"Before I went to negotiate with it, I left a mark of deep space on you. That is the proof that you can enter deep space..."
When Chen Jing said this, everyone, including Jerry the mouse, had a vague golden totem appear on their chests.
That was once the mark of the Yellow King.
But now it belongs to Chen Jing.
"Is this what you rely on to negotiate with it?"
"That's right." Chen Jing smiled and scratched his head, and said helplessly, "To be honest, I am quite afraid of this ancient god of the Western Continent, even though it is stated that if you do not violate its rules, you will not be attacked by it. , but who knows if it will suddenly change its mind?”
Hearing this, Chen Bofu couldn't help but nod.
In fact, this is what he has been worried about.
The rules of the ancient gods are not necessarily rules, they are just a certain "law" passed down from generation to generation on this continent. To the tribes who have lived here for a long time, it is like holding your breath when you jump into the water. Otherwise, you will drown and suffocate...
Yes.
This is just a rule.
So who can guarantee that the ancient gods can "keep what they say" and always follow this rule?
"Grandpa, when I heard you tell me that there was an ancient god living here, I felt something was wrong..."
Chen Jing whispered, thinking of the treasure map found in the two-dimensional space, his brows could not help but frown more and more.
"This kind of ancient creature that can be called a 'god' is definitely not comparable to the modern ancient descendants and polluted species. It has lived here for thousands of years, and it is impossible not to know that the treasure exists... …”
According to the markings and hints on the treasure map, Chen Jing was able to determine that the treasure house was not in some secret space.
Just underground.
Maybe a few hundred meters.
Maybe thousands of meters.
In short, it must be buried deep underground, rather than being separated and placed in a different dimension.
So "Xi" most likely knows of its existence.
This is why Chen Jing wanted to negotiate with it.
Everyone is in the light, but the ancient god is in the dark.
Rather than letting both parties temporarily pretend to ignore each other's existence and carefully guard each other in the dark, it would be better to directly attack the mountain and shake the tiger.
Maybe this shock was effective, or maybe it was only superficially effective.
But it’s always good to give it a try.
If it works, it can save a lot of trouble, but if it doesn't... at least he will be prepared to be attacked by the ancient gods and no longer have any other ideas about the so-called rules of the Western Continent.
In fact, Chen Jing always had a backup plan.
It's just that he didn't mention this plan to anyone because he couldn't determine the success rate of this plan.
"If I always use deep space jumping to reach my destination, after finding the treasure house, I will directly send everything in the treasure house into deep space, and then leave..."
Chen Jing was still chatting with "him" about this matter before, and "his" views were consistent with Chen Jing's thoughts.
Let’s take a look at the situation first.
Because there is currently no way to determine whether those things can be "moved", or even whether deep space jumping can enter the treasure house, this is destined to be only a backup plan.
Only when you have completely broken up with the ancient god, risking something like this while running away is enough.
"arrive."
When Chen Bofu stood up with a cigarette in his mouth, Chen Jing also saw the huge ring appearing on the ground in front of him.
That is the so-called "Styx", a dark ring-shaped river.
Viewed from a distance.
The River Styx is like a huge ring lying on the ground. The land in the center has become as muddy as a swamp, while the surrounding circular rivers are as silent as stagnant water.
The wind is very strong in the wasteland.
But the water surface of the Styx has always been as calm as a mirror.
Strange colors flowed on the black water, like the oily film left behind when someone poured gasoline into the water. The sticky river water exuded a stench that towered into the sky...
"I remember Jerry said that the entrance to the dungeon is a vertical staircase that can only be seen by outsiders when it floats in the River Styx."
Saying that, Chen Jing shrugged helplessly.
"It seems we are unlucky, the passage did not float..."
"Wait a little longer!" Jerry was wearing a mini version of a tuxedo and a top hat he didn't know where he got. He stood on Chen Jing's shoulder and looked at the Styx, "Maybe the passage will be fast. It will appear!"
"Wait for it! Let's just find another way to get down!"
Chen Bofu climbed up to Bai Aji's head and looked down. A crazy smile suddenly appeared on his old face.
"If I had known that the underground city was hidden in this smelly ditch, I would have broken in eight lifetimes ago..."
