Although Zhang Liang was a little curious about what Fang Hui was going to announce, but with so many foundation-building demons knowing about it, it was probably not as important as he said.
In short, Zhang Liang has locked in the first place and is waiting for the Hundred Demons Festival to end to get the second-level fighting method.
Two days later.
At the end of the Hundred Demons Festival, Zhang Liang ranked first, a sea anemone banshee named Lanyan came in second, and a blue-backed ray named Hongwan came in third.
As for Tang Chuan, he can only be ranked fourth and has no chance of second-level combat.
As for Nabei Zhan, he ranked eighth, which was much worse than Tang Chuan.
today.
In this Hundred Demons Festival, the top 100 strong men gathered in the Demon Fighting Arena. The Demon Suppressing Envoy Fang Hui led the four guards and praised them fiercely in front of tens of thousands of sea monsters.
At this moment, Zhang Liang, Lan Yan, and Hong Wan were standing at the front of the queue of hundreds of people.
Demon Suppressing Envoy Fang Hui led the four guards to the three of them, and very solemnly took out three red jade slips and three storage shells.
Just listen to Fang Hui and say with a serious expression: "It is not easy for sea monsters to practice. The three of you are the best among hundreds of monsters and millions of sea monsters. From now on, you should work hard and practice well."
"Yes, Lord Demon Suppressor."
Fang Hui nodded slightly and immediately glanced at the entire arena: "This envoy announced that the first place in the Hundred Demon Festival will be rewarded with a blood shark, a second-level fighting method, and a hundred second-level mid-level demon pills. The second place will be awarded with blue smoke. , one copy of the second-level fighting method, and 50 pieces of the second-level mid-level demon pills. As a reward, one copy of the second-level fighting method, and 30 pieces of the second-level mid-level demon pills. The third to tenth place will be rewarded with one piece of the first-level fighting method. or 50 pieces of second-level low-grade demon pills. From eleven to one hundred, 30 pieces of second-order low-grade demon pills will be awarded..."
"Um?"
Zhang Liang couldn't help but be a little dazed. What about the second-level mid-level demon elixir reward? Why hadn't he heard of it before?
However, it seems normal to think about it. After all, at their level, what they need at this moment should be the second-level and low-level demon pills. Hundreds of second-level mid-level demon pills are definitely a lot for Zhang Liang, but they are basically useless to the opponent who is at the peak of foundation building.
As for the second-level mid-grade demon elixir, it is indeed very precious in the Hundred Demons Collection, but the sphere of influence of the Ten Thousand Demons Mansion is dozens of times larger than that of the Hundred Demons Collection, and the number of monsters in the entire sea area is countless. Moreover, this time the rewards only gave out less than 400 second-level middle-grade demon pills, and the rest were all second-order low-grade demon pills, which were far from damaging.
Fang Hui didn't really care about rewards or anything, and was even a little impatient.
After the rewards were quickly distributed, Fang Hui issued an unceremonious eviction order: "From now on, all the sea monsters under the foundation building in the Demon Fighting Arena will leave and are not allowed to stay."
At this order, a large number of sea monsters left the scene. It wasn't until there were only more than 7,600 strong foundation-building warriors left in the field that Fang Hui ordered all the great foundation-building demons to gather on the field.
Everyone looked confused. The previous year's Hundred Demons Festival seemed to have ended here. Next, Fang Hui brought the top 100 strong people back to the Ten Thousand Demons Mansion.
But today, Fang Hui asked all the great foundation-building demons to stay, and he didn't know what big event he was going to announce.
However, he saw that Fang returned to his feet, flew up high, looked down at everyone and said: "Everyone must remember that what I am going to tell you below is something that has never happened in the Hundred Demons Gathering for thousands of years. A big deal."
Everyone was full of curiosity and looked at Fang Hui eagerly.
In fact, even the four major guards and powerful men from the big clans all looked at Fang Hui, wondering what was going on. Why didn't they know anything about it before?
Just listen to him say: "In addition to presiding over the gathering of hundreds of demons, this envoy has another task. A few years ago, a strong man from the Ten Thousand Demons Mansion learned a record in an ancient secret book. There is an ancient secret realm within the demon collection's sphere of influence. This secret realm has not yet been discovered until a few days ago, when I personally went to explore it and finally unearthed this ancient secret realm."
"Ancient secret realm again?"
Zhang Liang's eyelids suddenly jumped. The last one said it was an ancient secret realm and almost left them all there.
Now another one appears?
Recalling that a few days ago, Zhang Liang accidentally saw the scene where Fang Hui returned seriously injured, and thought to himself, if it was really an ancient secret realm, and even you, a great monster at the peak of foundation building, could be injured like that, how could it be easy for these people in the early stages of foundation building?
Just listening, Fang Hui continued: "I have personally investigated, and there is a universe in the secret realm with countless opportunities. Moreover, it is just suitable for the early stage of foundation building. Because it is within the sphere of influence of the Hundred Demons Gathering, I have the right, but Let the major demon clans within the Hundred Demon Gathering range explore once first. But... you can only explore once, and you must do it quickly. After all, this matter needs to be reported to the Ten Thousand Demons Palace immediately. Once the palace master makes a decision, Maybe it won’t be your turn to explore at will, Ten Thousand Monsters City will definitely send a large number of sea monsters over.”
As soon as these words came out, many sea monsters felt nervous.
The Great Guard of the Hundred Demons Gathering suddenly became energetic: "Sir, Demon Suppressant Envoy, can we really explore this matter first?"
Fang Hui nodded solemnly: "Yes, but be quick. There's only so much I can do. I can tell the superiors that the secret realm was too noisy at the beginning, attracting the attention of all the tribes and exploring it first. But..."
Fang replied: "However, this secret realm can only be explored in the early and middle stages of foundation building. If we take action in the late and final stages of foundation building, it will inevitably lead to the secret realm being severely damaged. When the time comes to blame the higher-ups, I won't be able to hold it back."
The several major guards and the great demons of various races in the late stage of foundation building who were quite excited just now suddenly turned pale after hearing this. Can't they take action in the late stage of foundation building? They also want to use their own powerful means to seize the opportunity first.
I heard Fang Hui snort coldly: "Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking. Don't think about it either. I can't let you explore such a huge secret realm only in the late stage of foundation building. If you go, then these foundations will be destroyed." How can the juniors in the junior and middle grades compete with you? When you get to the top, will you attack these juniors?"
Fang Hui looked righteous and awe-inspiring, and directly reprimanded these late-stage foundation-building demons.
Immediately, Fang Huicai said: "This envoy will personally supervise the exploration of the secret realm. At that time, you can only follow me and not mess around."
"Yes, Lord Messenger."
Immediately, Fang Huicai looked at the siren in the field again and said: "Today, I will make an exception to give you this opportunity. However, in the secret realm, danger and opportunity coexist, and death will inevitably occur. Based on my judgment, The death rate is not low, maybe as high as 30%. So, those who don’t want to go, those who dare not go, and those who cherish their lives can leave now.”
However, even though Fang Hui said this, none of the sea monsters wanted to quit. Are you kidding? This is a secret realm, an opportunity that only comes once in a thousand years. Everyone relies on their own methods. How could they retreat?
It is not that easy for all sea monsters who advance to the level of foundation-building great monster. Everyone knows how they got here before. In this immortal sea, if you want to grow, you must not fight. Who has not killed tens of millions of creatures?
Although the Kraken also cherishes his life, it is something that he is unable to defeat, or must lose. But there is only a 30% chance of death in this secret realm. How can it be possible to build a foundation if you are still afraid of death?
Therefore, the more Fang Hui wanted them to leave, the less likely they would leave.
Zhang Liang, on the other hand, was a little hesitant. What about the 30% chance of casualties? Why is it exactly the same as what Yao Zhen said back then?
However, no one is leaving. If I, the number one player, leave, will I be slapped to death?
Forget it, leave an anchor point in advance when the time comes, and if you encounter a problem, just run away.
Here, Fang Hui finally said: "Would you like to follow me and go to the secret realm together?"
"willing."
"We are willing."
"..."
A smile appeared on Fang Hui's face, he had already expected this scene.
I just heard him say leisurely: "I think that at the beginning, I was as motivated as you. Who asked me to preside over your gathering of hundreds of monsters. Well, even if the higher-ups are blamed this time, I will bear the responsibility. . I hope you will not disappoint me. I hope you will achieve great results in the future. I hope you can do the same as me and give the younger generations a chance..."
Fang Hui sighed with emotion, the acting was very realistic.
However, Zhang Liang did not believe a single word. If he hadn't seen Fang Hui's serious injury, he might still have believed him.
But now, he doesn't believe a word of it.
How can there be such a good thing in the world? You found an ancient secret place, but you didn’t explore it yourself, but you selflessly told so many people to let them go together, are you the Holy Mother? Are these sirens your relatives?
But I heard the great guard's message: "My Lord Messenger, I wonder where this secret realm is?"
Fang Hui glanced at him lightly: "Thousands of miles away from the coral reef."
The chief guard was immediately shocked: "Where?"
The great guard's expression changed with surprise: "Then could this secret realm be related to the Thousand Miles Coral Reef? That's a Jedi place!"
Fang Hui shook his head: "It shouldn't matter much, it's still nearly a thousand miles away. I will naturally take you there this time, but after all, you are the guardian of the Hundred Demons Gathering, and it is your duty to guard..."
The big guard immediately looked at the other three big guards and heard him say: "On this trip, I am going to supervise the battle. Next time, when someone comes from Ten Thousand Monsters City, I will naturally let you go."
Although the other three guards were a little reluctant in their hearts, Fang Hui just said that they would mainly supervise the battle. Although they were worried that Fang Hui and the Great Guard might have the responsibility to supervise the battle, explore the secret realm, and find the treasure, they could not express it.
As soon as the chief guard heard that he was being taken, he immediately lost all doubts. He had indeed had this suspicion before, but since he was being taken, even if there was a chance, he should be a part of it.
After all, although in name he wanted to call Fang Huiyi the demon-suppressing envoy, in reality he was at the pinnacle of foundation building. Even if there is a gap in strength, it shouldn't be huge. Moreover, there are so many powerful people from the Hundred Demons Gathering here, what are you afraid of?
After Fang Hui discussed with everyone, he immediately looked back at Zhang Liang and everyone else and said: "This exploration is time-critical. I can't give you too much time, so we set off immediately. Everyone is here, follow me and leave the city."
…
After a while.
More than 7,000 foundation-building demons collectively left the Hundred Demon Gathering, causing a huge shock.
As soon as he came out of the Hundred Demons Gathering, Fang Hui led everyone straight to the direction of the Thousand Miles Coral Reef.
The great foundation-building demon can move forward at full speed very quickly if there is no obstacle ahead. Although it is impossible to travel ten thousand miles in a day, it is still easy for these great foundation-building monsters who come to attend the meeting to travel three thousand miles in a day.
Eventually, the speed was adjusted to four thousand miles per day.
This is naturally walking at the lower limit speed of the foundation-building demon. Otherwise, if they were walking at the upper limit speed, it would not be impossible for these people to travel eight thousand miles a day.
At first, Zhang Liang didn't care.
However, as Fang Hui traveled quickly and passed directly through the territory of the blue-backed stingray, he had already descended nearly ten thousand miles. Zhang Liang couldn't help but wonder, how could this be so similar to his own way home?
Three days later, when there was only less than ten thousand miles away from the thousand-mile coral reef, Zhang Liang suddenly panicked. no? In this direction, is it possible that this side will go back and attack the Qianli Coral Reef?
By the time the seventh day passed, Zhang Liang's heart sank completely. There were only three thousand miles away from Qianli Coral Reef. He would not believe him even if he said that this was not an attack on Qianli Coral Reef.
"Did something happen to Qianli Coral Reef?"
"Has the secret passage been discovered?"
"That's not right! Don't these people know that the Thousand Miles Coral Reef is protected by a mysterious force? Even the Golden Core Demon will die if it goes away. Does Fang Hui think that relying on the number of people will be enough?"
Seeing the large army getting closer and closer to the Qianli Coral Reef, Zhang Liang had a bad feeling. These are the leaders of two major foundation-building peak teams. The World Divine Mirror can only collect one at a time when it is full, and he has not tried it yet.
At that time, what will happen to the other peak-level foundation-building demon? I'm afraid it may not be possible to defeat him with the help of the Black Crow Formation. What's more, there are more than ten great monsters in the late stage of foundation building here. Once you do something and attract the attention of others, it will be almost impossible to use the World Divine Mirror to take someone else.
Moreover, there are more than 7,000 foundation-building sea monsters around, who will definitely expose the secret of their own world mirror. At that time, the original robbery of the Hundred Demons Gathering would definitely be exposed.
However, Zhang Liang had no good solution at this moment and could only bite the bullet and follow the large army.
Less than two thousand miles away from the Thousand Miles Coral Reef, Zhang Liang discovered something unusual. He discovered a large number of low-level Immortal Sea beasts around him.
A large number of first-order low-grade, first-order mid-grade, and first-order high-grade ferocious beasts are everywhere, and they all seem to be marching towards the thousands of miles of coral reefs.
Such visions also attracted everyone's attention.
Zhang Liang's morals were bad. It was probably due to some unknown incident on the Qianli Coral Reef.
But he was also a little speechless in his heart. He had been living on a coral reef for decades and had nothing to do with it. However, it had only been less than a year since he came out. How could something happen?
Thousands of miles.
Eight hundred miles.
Naturally, it is impossible for the massive ferocious beasts to stop the footsteps of so many great foundation-building demons.
However, just when Zhang Liangliang said that he would pass by the submarine volcano soon, Fang Hui stopped at the volcano group.
"Um?"
Zhang Liang is puzzled and won’t leave?
At this moment, he suddenly realized something, and saw that those ferocious beasts seemed to be rushing towards the crater that he had blown up.
"Isn't it? Is this the ancient secret realm he was talking about?"
Zhang Liang felt that there were ten thousand steelhead fish running in his heart. What the hell?
Zhang Liang was in bad shape at that time. He had swept the place clean at first, but in the end he didn't wait because steam was spewing out from the volcano.
He thought, it's just an underwater volcano. It's full of magma and stuff. The temperature is so high that even spiritual consciousness can't penetrate it. Who would be sick and run into it?
As a result, after going around in a big circle, I ended up back at the underwater volcano. Isn't this funny to myself?
If he had known earlier, why would he have gone to the Fair of Hundred Demons? Wouldn't it be better to just take the Black Fish Division to explore the secret realm?
However, Zhang Liang paused, and it seemed that it was not that easy.
Even Fang Hui, who was at the peak of Foundation Establishment, broke an arm here. It was obviously quite dangerous here. Thousand Miles of Coral Reef plus he only had three foundations, not even one late-stage foundation. If he really entered, it would be a question of whether he could come out alive.
"Swish, swish, swish~"
I saw several figures of seven or eight foundation-building sea monsters rushing over from seven or eight mountains.
"I've met the Demon Suppressor."
Fang replied: "During my absence, are there any visions here?"
Some people shook their heads: "Master Demon Suppressor, we will obey your order and guard this place. Except for the large number of low-level ferocious beasts nearby that are constantly being attracted, there are no other unusual phenomena."
Fang Hui nodded, then turned around and said to everyone: "The submarine volcano ahead is the entrance to the ancient secret realm that I finally opened up. Later, everyone will follow me in. I will follow in advance. You agree, when you enter the secret realm, don't expect that the strong ones in your family can do whatever you want. This envoy can tell you clearly that the strong men in your family cannot help you in the secret realm. How many opportunities you can get depends entirely on you."
Zhang Liang sneered, did you develop it? Are you big-faced?
From this sentence, Zhang Liang knew that everything Fang Hui said was false, because if anyone wanted to open this secret realm, it must be him!
After a pause, Fang Hui said again: "I would like to remind everyone that you have also seen that a large number of ferocious beasts are constantly burrowing into this secret realm, so there are a large number of ferocious beasts inside now. Fortunately, these ferocious beasts The strength is not strong, and the number of second-level ferocious beasts among them is relatively limited. Therefore, do everything according to your ability. If you cannot get a big chance, it is also good to hunt some ferocious beasts and demon pills."
After finishing speaking, Fang Hui said to the big guard and others around him: "Later, you guys are going to explore. You need to cooperate with me to set up a blockade formation. This place may become the Baiyao Gathering's biggest reliance in the future. Don't be fooled by these Ordinary ferocious beasts took advantage."
"Yes, Lord Guardian."
At this moment, countless sea monsters around Zhang Liang were already a little restless.
Some people are even discussing: "If even these low-level ferocious beasts can enter, what danger can we face if we go in?"
Someone said: "Only these things, I can pick seven or eight with one gun, how dangerous can they be?"
Some people are relatively cautious: "Don't be careless. Since even the guardian envoy said it is dangerous inside, it means it must be really dangerous. Is it possible that the guardian envoy is not as good as you?"
Zhang Liang stood aside and listened, thinking to himself, just don't cry later.
In his mind, Zhang Liang has already set up an anchor point again. Once something big happens in the secret realm inside, he can just run away. Anyway, it’s so close to the Thousand Miles Coral Reef and you’ll be home in minutes.
No, I just heard an order from Fang: "Everyone listens to the order, I will give you an hourglass of time to clean up the surrounding ferocious beasts. After an hourglass, you will enter the secret realm on time."
"Swish, swish, swish~"
However, they saw silhouettes one after another wishing they had eight legs, and they all attacked at great speed. In the blink of an eye, less than a hundred people were still left in place.
Old God Zhang Liang was on the ground and had no intention of taking action.
Just kidding, a seven-thousand-eight-thousand-year-old foundation-building demon could use an hourglass to deal with some low-level ferocious beasts?
Just like what the man said just now, he would kill seven or eight people with one shot. If he ran over and killed the beasts, he might not be able to grab even the hair.
Sure enough, without even using a stick of incense and just a hundred breaths, the surrounding mountains were licked by a group of great foundation-building monsters, and the beasts died so cleanly.
Just listening, Fang Hui shouted: "Follow me into the secret realm."
Fang Hui took the lead and rushed into the crater with his confidants, the great guard and a group of late-stage foundation-building monsters, followed closely by Zhang Liang and the others.
Returning to his old place, Zhang Liang finally got into the crater.
The entrance of the cave is actually not small, with a length and width of nearly 500 meters. For a mountain, it is already very large. The passage down is somewhat narrow, only about a hundred meters.
This mountain is more than 2,000 meters high, but Zhang Liang rushed down nearly 3,000 meters without reaching the bottom.
On the contrary, there is a large amount of black solidified matter here, which seems to be rocks that were condensed when sea water and magma met. It is dark, relatively smooth, and has a colloidal texture.
When Zhang Liang descended about 3,800 meters, strange terrains finally appeared here. The underground structure is circular and arranged very regularly, like a huge platform built on magma.
However, now the magma has turned into black stone, so it is not so obvious, but Zhang Liang feels that this should be some kind of formation.
Sure enough, the next moment, when Zhang Liang was about to stand on the platform, he unexpectedly passed through the platform directly.
The next moment, Zhang Liang fell inexplicably, and a wave of fiery heat came over him.
Yes, it was a fall, because there was no water here at all. Zhang Liang, who was used to swimming, was caught off guard and fell in mid-air.
Fortunately, he was a great foundation-building demon, so he stabilized his body a little, and then used the demon energy to balance himself, forming a barrier under his feet, and slowly descended in mid-air.
After all, Zhang Liang can now master the art of sword control. If such a small skill cannot defeat him, his path to immortality may be over.
However, Zhang Liang landed lightly, doesn’t it mean that others can too? Many sea monsters have never been on land in their lives and have never experienced the feeling of flying.
Therefore, each one of them could be said to be on their backs, spinning around in the sky, and even exclaimed again and again.
Of course, they would not be injured, because the place where they appeared was not very high from the ground, only about a hundred meters.
While everyone else was spinning around in the sky, Zhang Liang had already begun to look at this place.
How should I put it? It is a piece of red soil. There are no towering mountains or majestic lakes. It is more like a plain. There are many red wild grasses on the plains, occasional woodlands, and some medium-sized rivers.
But what flows in these rivers is not water, but magma.
Of course, in addition to local features, there are also a large number of corpses of ferocious beasts from the Immortal Sea. Some were almost eaten, and some were rotten so the smell in the air wasn't very good.
Perhaps it is because of the magma that it is very hot here. If the normal temperature on the seabed is only a few degrees, then the temperature here is probably sixty or seventy degrees, and the temperature above the magma rivers will be even higher.
This temperature is nothing to the Foundation Establishment Demon, it's just a little bit unaccustomed to it.
"Bang~"
Zhang Liang landed steadily, and the ground temperature was ten to twenty degrees higher than the air temperature.
The surroundings were filled with the smell of blood, mostly left behind by those fallen ferocious beasts.
At this moment, not far in front of Zhang Liang, Fang Hui and his party were standing there.
However, Fang Hui turned around and looked at Zhang Liang with a half-smile: "As expected of the first place in the Hundred Demons Festival, he was not affected by the environment at all."
