Under the gaze of Le Zhengxun and others, the black mucus quickly covered Cheng Sheng's entire arm like maggots on the tarsus.
Nothing happened.
After making sure that he was safe and sound, Chengshuo simply dug his entire arm into the armor fragments.
Perhaps it was sensing fresh flesh and blood.
Those armors all seemed to come alive.
They squirmed, scrambling to climb onto the living arm, and quickly spliced it together without a single crack on it.
Not long after, these armors were all 'grown' on the living arms.
They are integrated with living skin and flesh and are indistinguishable from each other....
Cheng Huo held a sharp sword in his hand, ready to cut off his arm at any time.
Not long after that.
As the sense of peace and tranquility continued to be transmitted from the armor, the squirming and whining sounds in the living body were suppressed.
It became....
Chengshuo breathed a sigh of relief and looked happy.
at the same time.
Inside the cave.
The Taixuanmen elder who witnessed the whole process asked: "Fellow Taoist Cheng, did you feel any discomfort after you got that mucus on your left arm?"
Cheng Sheng said truthfully: "Not yet."
The Taixuan Sect elder nodded: "If that's the case, combine it with the information provided by fellow Taoist Lezheng before."
"As expected, this cave was probably a shelter used by the ancient immortals thousands of years ago to hide after suffering a catastrophe."
"And the corpse in the cave is none other than the ancient immortal!"
"As for the black mucus on their bodies..."
The elder of the Taixuan Sect continued: "Didn't Fellow Taoist Le Zheng just say that mucus can be used to suppress the pollution of unspeakable creatures?"
"Then if my guess is correct, the ancient immortals were contaminated by unspeakable creatures, so they are covered in mucus."
Is it pollution...?
Survival suddenly.
At the same time, he couldn't help but have a guess in his mind:
Is it possible that the blood trees in the blood forest were actually transformed by ancient immortals who were contaminated by unspeakable creatures?
And when he ate the blood fruit from the 'Ancient Immortal Tree', he was also polluted by the same thing.
And the jet black armor, or black mucus, happens to have the ability to suppress pollution, so the abnormality in his body will be suppressed?
Between thoughts.
But I heard the leader of the Ziji Sect on the side say: "If this cave is really a shelter, then deeper in the shelter, there is a high probability that there are treasures left by the ancient immortals, isn't it?"
The leader of the Ziji Sect is not without aim:
Whether you are a monk or a mortal, you will definitely take the most precious and valuable items with you when you flee.
This is human nature.
After being reminded, the elder of Taixuanmen said excitedly: "In this case, let's continue to look deeper into the cave?"
Out of curiosity about the contamination of the unspeakable creature and the jet-black armor, Chengshuo responded: "I have no objection if we continue to go deeper."
The leader of the Ziji Sect showed a hint of greed in his eyes, and nodded: "Yes."
In this way, three monks in the late stage of embryo-building took the lead, and the monks continued to move deeper into the cave...
As the monks continued to go deeper, the underground tunnel began to become narrower and narrower, and then suddenly became wider.
Everyone came to a new cave.
On the cave floor, there were no less than a dozen corpses of ancient immortals covered in black mucus.
Next to the corpse, you can also see immortal swords, immortal clothes, alchemy furnaces, porcelain bottles containing elixirs, and brocade boxes containing unknown herbal medicines.
Relying on their late-stage cultivation of embryo-building, Cheng Huo, the elders of Taixuan Sect and the leader of Ziji Sect were the first to step forward to select the treasures.
The Taixuanmen elder picked up the porcelain bottle containing the elixir, opened the seal and smelled it.
He rushed to Chenghuo and the leader of the Ziji Sect: "If you two Taoists don't mind, I will take this bottle of elixir away first."
The leader of the Ziji Sect wore an exquisite phoenix crown and said nothing, only remaining aloof.
Cheng Huo quietly took away the alchemy furnace and the brocade box containing unknown herbs.
Although elixirs exist in this world, there is no such thing as 'alchemy'.
Therefore, in the eyes of the monks, what Survival took away was just a useless stove...
After the surviving three people had taken the treasure, it was the turn of the first-class monk Yue Zhengxun to come forward and take the treasure.
After gaining something, everyone looked happy.
Some monks who were in the late stage of worshiping gods and in the early stage of embryo-building with lower cultivation levels simply stopped as soon as they were ready and silently returned from the original route.
And the monks who are in the middle stage of embryo-building, such as Shengsheng and Lezhengxun, continue to explore deeper.
'Woo... hoo...'
While walking, Cheng Huo's heart suddenly tightened for no reason, and a "whining" sound like a whisper came from his ears.
He originally thought that the abnormality inside his body broke out again, but he heard the Taixuanmen elder on the side said: "Fellow Taoists, you must have heard it too, right?"
"Um."
The leader of the Ziji Sect nodded: "Just now, I did hear a sound, but I just can't describe it. It feels weird."
After hearing what everyone said, Cheng Sheng looked forward with a solemn look on his face.
There's something weird ahead of that.
Previously, Cheng Sheng was almost driven into madness under the influence of the "whining" sound, so he was extremely sensitive and afraid of the sound.
At that moment, he said extremely cautiously: "Fellow Taoists, I will not go any further..."
Everyone looked at Chengshuo together.
The elder of Taixuanmen asked: "What, is there something wrong with the sound just now?"
Chenghuo nodded and said, "There is a problem, and it's a big problem!"
"So, fellow Taoist, you know the origin of that sound?" Taixuanmen elder asked.
Cheng Sheng remained silent.
The "whining" sound involves his own secrets, so he cannot tell others easily.
Seeing that he didn't speak, the Taixuanmen elder smiled and said: "That voice does sound weird...but, it is just a voice after all."
"When the ancient immortal ruins were first opened, wouldn't there be strange sounds coming from inside... I think fellow Taoists don't need to be afraid of this, right?"
"If there is any danger, it won't be too late to evacuate in time."
Chengshuo did not argue with the elders of the Taixuan Sect. He just cupped his fists and saluted everyone: "Then... I wish all Taoists good luck."
"you...."
The Taixuanmen elder hesitated to speak, and finally waved his hand and said, "Okay, it's up to you."
The leader of the Ziji Sect still looked cold and cold, and did not make any effort to persuade Cheng Sheng to leave.
At present, there are still two people in the team who are leading the charge in the late stage of tire building.
In addition, everyone had just obtained treasures and elixirs, and with their morale boosted, no one flinched because of Chengshuo's departure.
In the team, Weile Zhengxunyi and Chengshuo left together.
The two teleported back to the Red Water Lake from the entrance of the ruins....
"Become a Taoist friend."
On the lake, Le Zhengxunyi couldn't help but said: "The voice just sounded weird, but it didn't make you turn around and leave, right?"
Chengshuo did not respond and only asked: "Under what circumstances do you think the ancient immortals would build a shelter underground?"
Le Zhengxun realized for a moment and said: "To avoid certain dangers on the ground...such as giant ferocious beasts?"
"It is possible." Chengshuo said, "But tens of thousands of years ago, it seems that there was no such thing as a 'giant ferocious beast', right?"
"That's true!" Le Zhengxun suddenly said: "So you mean..."
"I suspect that it is not actually an ancient immortal sanctuary at all."
Chengshuo recalled the 'whining' sound he just heard in the ruins.
He guessed: "I think it is probably a dungeon, a dungeon used to imprison or seal something..."
