Mingluo stood up and said, "That's okay. Killing each other in the same clan is simply lawless!"
"Senior Brother Chen, where are those two people? Are the four of us still afraid of him? We need an explanation!"
Mingluo greeted Zhao Ning and Chen Tian, "What do you two think?"
Zhao Ning didn't answer and only asked Chen Yuan, "Where did you and Huo Hui separate?"
"That passage is half a mile up." Chen Yuan pointed to the fourth passage from the left.
Zhao Ning's spiritual sense scanned the secret slip, and now the location marked by the spiritual light was no longer near the Batcave, but indeed at an unknown location in her memory.
"Zhao Ning? Why don't you answer me? Are you unwilling to go?"
Zhao Ning stood up and looked at Min Luo with a faint smile, "Why not go? We only have that area left to explore."
Mingluo turned to look happy, "kill two birds with one stone! Chen Yuan, lead the way quickly!"
Chen Yuan stood up, "You guys are really very fast. I still have the area to the northwest. I hope I can make it in the last two days."
"The monsters in the northwest are very good at camouflage. We were tricked several times. Chen Tian even used a secret shield once. Be careful."
Several people quickly exchanged a few words about the situation, and Chen Yuan flew forward.
There are still spider webs in the passage, and there are even traces of blood from not long ago. It is feared that some fellow Grandmaster brothers have also fallen into the illusion of giant spiders and are in great danger.
Not all disciples would want to recruit the three of them to explore together like this. On the one hand, they are arrogant and want to be superior to others. On the other hand, they can show their dazzling qualities and be valued by real people. Then the apprenticeship will be smooth sailing.
Zhao Ning had his leg injured by a giant spider just now. Even if he used spiritual power to repair it, there was still some pain.
She was at the end, feeling a little unsure. When she looked at the secret slip just now, she had a strange feeling. The overall view of the secret realm was too square. If it were formed naturally, it would be too...
"There is a monster!"
Suddenly Chen Tian shouted in surprise and saw a group of flying ants rushing towards the top of the rock.
As soon as the flying ants approached, the buzzing sound of their wings almost burst the eardrums.
"It's the innate magical power of bloodthirsty ants. The resonance of thousands of sounds will destroy the mind." Chen Yuan shouted, "Quick! Close the ear consciousness!"
When everyone heard that something was not good, they made some secrets and cast spells. Spiritual light flashed on both sides, and everything fell silent for an instant.
Chen Tian and Chen Yuan rushed forward with their spiritual swords, and chopped down many bloodthirsty ants with one slash.
But monsters like bloodthirsty ants, like bats, win with numbers and kill them endlessly.
Mingluo majored in fire spirit root, mobilized his spiritual energy, drew a circle of fire around his body, and burned each one.
"Zhao Ning, hurry up..." As soon as he shouted, he realized that everyone had closed their ears and could not hear the sound.
But as soon as he glanced at it, he saw Zhao Ning holding a whip to sweep away ants. The whip swept past, and there was a pile of ant corpses.
The figure followed the whip shadow at an unbelievable speed. In an instant, only the afterimage was left, and the person had already reached the depths.
"Zhao Ning! Don't go too deep!" As soon as she remembered that everyone couldn't hear the sound and was in an emergency, Minluo forgot about it in an instant.
She quickly removed the fire ring, gathered a fire shield around her, and caught up with Zhao Ning.
Perhaps there was still blood on her clothes, and the swarm of bloodthirsty ants gathered around Zhao Ning like crazy. She whipped her whip to sweep away the bloodthirsty ants that were sneaking up from behind.
After getting a breath, he tore off the blood-stained clothes. He suddenly felt the breeze on the back of his head. He subconsciously threw himself on the ground and rolled away. He saw a large number of bloodthirsty ants gathering like a black cloud and swooping down. Minluo, who was chasing him, quickly He pinched open fire and burned the group of bloodthirsty ants.
The movements of her mouth seemed to be asking "Are you okay?"
Zhao Ning winked at her, raised the bloody piece of cloth in his hand, and threw it upwards.
The bloodthirsty ants rushed away. Mingluo understood and pinched the bloodthirsty ants very fast, burning a piece of the bloodthirsty ants.
The cave was somewhat hollow. Zhao Ning looked at the direction in which the bloodthirsty ants came and saw a cave, so he ducked and flew in.
Mingluo followed closely, and as soon as he entered, he was greeted by Da Hai.
He opened his mouth not knowing what to say, and opened and closed his arms to express shock.
I saw countless eggs as big as eggs scattered throughout the cave, some of which had broken shells, with transparent bodies, and larvae half the size of a palm gathered in the middle, stacked in several layers.
The blood lines on the young ants can still be seen faintly in the lowest layers.
Mingluo raised his hand and gathered fire in his hand, intending to burn the whole lair down.
Zhao Ning suddenly flew away in the wind, and with one palm strike, the hurricane swept away layers of ants. She reached into the ground and pulled out a person.
He was wearing a blue disciple's robe, his appearance was beyond recognition, his blood was gone, his skin was covered with bones, and his body was covered with wounds gnawed by young ants.
These bloodthirsty ants take people to feed their young ants!
Mingluo was so angry that he gathered his spirits and set fire to it. The flames ignited the young ants and insect eggs in the entire cave.
Sensing something was wrong in their nest, large swathes of bloodthirsty ants rushed back, but were eliminated by Chen Tian and Chen Yuan with all their strength.
Zhao Ning sensed this person's condition and still breathed a sigh of relief!
He turned over his hand and took out a thousand-year-old ginseng and stuffed it into the mouth of the outer disciple, and then used the technique to gather his soul to repair his wounds.
As the wound repaired, blood gradually appeared, and the body that was flattened by blood loss also gradually recovered.
Zhao Ning recognized this person as Huo Hui!
After burning a stick of incense, the remaining bloodthirsty ants fled in defeat. Mingluo and the other three people did not pursue them anymore and returned to Zhao Ning. When they saw this man, they were all shocked.
Zhao Ning withdrew his momentum, Mingluo gestured, and Zhao Ning removed the ear-consciousness ban.
I heard her say, "We also found a ban outside. Someone deliberately threw Junior Brother Huo into the ant nest!"
Chapter 110
"It must be those two inner scum who did it!"
Hearing Chen Yuan's angry words, Zhao Ning lowered his eyes and thought deeply.
Chen Yuan knelt down and checked Huo Hui's injuries. He saw that Huo Hui had almost recovered and would regain his attributes in a short time.
"Fortunately, the little senior sister treated him in time, otherwise junior brother Huo would really have died here."
"Although I was able to save half of his life, his foundation was damaged. I'm afraid the foundation building will be hindered." Zhao Ning shook her head and said regretfully. She had a good impression of Huo Hui and he was a friendly and helpful person.
Mingluo was angry, "These people are so unscrupulous, why are they afraid that the sect will know that they did it?! Do you think that by using bloodthirsty ants to kill Junior Brother Huo, the soul lamp can't record their evil deeds? We need Find those two people and vent your anger on Junior Brother Huo!"
"Ahem..." Just at this moment, Huo Hui woke up and coughed several times.
When he opened his eyes and saw several people surrounding him, he subconsciously wanted to cast a spell, but he instantly collapsed to the ground. Fortunately, he was supported by Chen Yuan.
"Huo Hui! It's me! Chen Yuan!" Chen Yuan shook Huo Hui and shouted.
"Senior Brother Chen?" Huo Hui finally woke up and saw Zhao Ning and others in a blink of an eye, "Also, Senior Sister Shen, why are you here!"
"It'll be fine if you wake up." Chen Yuan introduced Mingluo and Chen Tian to Huo Hui, and said happily to him, "It was the little senior sister who rescued you from the ant nest and fed you thousand-year-old ginseng. Otherwise, …”
Huo Hui was horrified, staggered to his knees and raised his hands to worship Zhao Ning.
"No need." Zhao Ning stopped his downward arm and helped him up, "Disciples of the same sect should help each other."
For some reason, when Zhao Ning touched Huo Hui's arm, he felt his body become unexpectedly stiff.
"Junior Brother Huo, what's wrong? But I still feel uncomfortable. Why are my muscles and bones so stiff?"
Mingluo then probed his arm and was even more shocked, "Junior brother Huo is awake, why is he still stiff and cold, like a corpse? Could it be that those two inner sects poisoned you?"
Huo Hui moved his arms in confusion, not that exaggeratedly, but slowly.
He thought for a while and said, "Probably not. I am already dead in their eyes. There is no need to poison me. It would be unnecessary. I remembered that when I was exploring the secret realm with Senior Brother Chen Yuan, we encountered an Earth-bound Scorpion. I was accidentally pricked, and the tail hook contains corpse poison. I have taken the detoxification pill, so maybe it is not clean."
Chen Yuan also suddenly realized, "That's what happened!" After saying that, he handed Huo Hui another antidote pill.
"Brother Huo, it was my lack of strength that allowed them to detain you and suffer such a catastrophe. Instead, I fled alone. If I hadn't met the young senior sister and others, I'm afraid... I would feel guilty." Chen Yuan didn't even dare to look. Huo Hui, knelt down and wanted to apologize to Huo Hui.
How could Huo Hui accept such a courtesy from Chen Yuan? He quickly went to stop him, while Mingluo and Chen Tian also helped him.
Zhao Ning comforted, "Senior Brother Chen, please don't say this. With Senior Brother Chen's character, even if he doesn't meet the three of us, Senior Brother Chen will return to save Junior Brother Huo."
Huo Hui nodded and patted Chen Yuan on the shoulder, "Senior brother, you are not ashamed. This time we formed a team to explore the secret realm. I know the nature of senior brother. They are all those two bastards!"
When the two inner disciples were mentioned again, everyone was still angry.
Zhao Ning asked, "Junior Brother Huo, do you know why they killed them all? Is it really for Xuan Jing?"
"No, it's the second level key!" Huo Hui said firmly.
The four members of Zhao Ning were extremely surprised. They had never heard that there was a second level in the Little Secret Realm of Ten Thousand Caves.
Wait, Zhao Ning thought of those casual cultivators who killed Han Ying. Could it be that they crawled out from the second floor? !
"Junior Brother Huo, what secrets did you hear from them?" Chen Yuan asked anxiously, if there is a second level, doesn't it mean that this little competition is far from over? !
"I didn't hear very clearly. I only know that they overheard the news from the real person, saying that there are actually two levels in the Secret Realm of Ten Thousand Caves. The key is randomly thrown into the secret realm. Obtaining the second layer key can open the second layer of teleportation. Formation. It is said that the second floor is a huge underground space, which is not controlled by our sect alone."
"Damn it!" Mingluo hammered the wall, "I thought the sect was kind before and didn't limit the number of places in the inner sect, but now it seems they still want to pick the top one!"
"Senior Sister Ming, have you forgotten? In their opinion, the final opportunity for the elders of the inner sect is to obtain the only key and leave in the closed secret realm of ten thousand caves. It is the door of life within the door of death. , It's a huge opportunity." Chen Yuan said without emotion.
"If only one person enters the second level, will the others who explore the entire first-level secret realm pass the competition?" This is the focus of Zhao Ning's attention. Zhao Ning does not want to care about other inner sect grudges and elder tendencies.
"Since there is a hidden competition, I'm afraid you will have to pass after you leave the secret realm." Chen Tian speculated.
Zhao Ning had no expression on her face and just asked Huo Hui, "Junior Brother Huo, do you know which direction those two people went."
"Back...back to the armored monster beast's lair."
"The key must be in the lair!" Minluo affirmed.
Zhao Ning turned around and left, "Go and have a look."
The armored monster's lair was empty, and everything had been swept away. Chen Yuan pointed at the nest, "That pile of mysterious crystals is piled in the nest."
Xuan Jing was naturally taken away, leaving only half of the corpse of the monster beast that had been eaten by the armored monster beast outside the nest.
Zhao Ning's eyebrows moved and she looked at Chen Tian, "I wonder if the corpse of a monster can use the round light retrospection technique?"
Chen Tian was stunned, "Okay, it's only half effective, but I don't know how long the monster has been dead, and it may not be able to see the condition of those two people."
"Five breaths are fine." Zhao Ning stepped aside, "Even if there isn't, then try to see if there are any clues about the key."
Chen Tuan suddenly nodded, and the four of them waited for Chen Tuan to cast a spell. Under the spell, an image of a armored beast biting its prey appeared in the round light. The blood blurred the light and shadow, but it could not block the brilliance of the mysterious crystal.
