"I didn't expect there was such a place hidden behind the stone wall."

In front of the stone wall, Dongfang Xiaotian looked at the underground space in front of him with wide eyes and said with surprise.

Beside him, Su Wuming had already begun to look at the quiet caves on the stone wall, frowning and saying, "Someone has opened up a practice place here."

After they finished speaking, they both looked at Mu Qing and did not act immediately.

The three of them followed Wei Sheng Ling's traces all the way, but Wei Sheng Ling was very cautious. In the last part of the journey, they lost each other's traces. They were able to get here because Mu Qing noticed the formation in the stone wall. Aura, which made the two of them subconsciously take him as the leader.

When the two of them spoke out, Mu Qing was actually silently waiting for someone to appear.

If his guess is correct, this is where Wei Shengling lives on weekdays. If Wei Shengling has come back, then he should have appeared in front of him by this time.

But after Mu Qing waited for a while, Wei Shengling still didn't show up.

Mu Qing frowned and moved forward, then stopped quickly, staring at the ground with blood stains remaining, his eyes darkening slightly.

"There are signs of fighting here." Su Wuming came to him and said.

Mu Qing felt the bloody smell remaining in the air and was very surprised. He said: "The blood stains on the ground are slightly green. In addition, there is still the blood of the Witch Clan in the air."

Su Wuming glanced at him and went to search for clues elsewhere. However, Dongfang Xiaotian thought of something and asked, "Then Gu Yinghe has a close relationship with you. Could it be her?"

In fact, Dongfang Xiaotian wanted to ask whether Gu Yinghe was secretly working for Mu Qing. In their opinion, Gu Yinghe, who had always kept a low profile, was the most advanced and powerful person among the group of people who entered the secret realm.

Mu Qing said helplessly: "She has her own things to do, but she will appear here. Gu Yuan should have been here not long ago."

"come and see."

Su Wuming's voice suddenly came from behind a stone wall.

Mu and Qing turned around the stone wall and saw an empty hall. Su Wuming was standing at the end, his hand on the hilt of his sword.

In front of him was a smooth and flat wall. The reason why he stopped was because the breath of the formation was spreading from the wall.

He looked at Mu Qing, who was approaching, and said, "You know this better than us, can you break the formation here?"

Mu Qing smelled the peculiar fragrance that lingered in the air, guessed the purpose of this hall, and said: "The atmosphere of the formation here is very strong. There should be more than one formation activated. It should take a lot to break it. time."

Su Wuming heard Mu Qing's rejection, looked at the wall, and sighed: "Well, anyway, we just want to know more about this secret realm, not to destroy it."

Dongfang Xiaotian found several scattered stone boxes in a corner not far away. After opening them, he was surprised to find some rare elixirs. He looked at Mu Qing strangely: "I suspect that Gu Yinghe collected a lot of them from here." Miraculous elixir.”

Mu Qing walked over curiously. The elixir in the stone box was indeed rare in the outside world. It was already at the level of treasure, but it was not what he wanted and he was no longer interested.

Since the host didn't want to see guests, they had no choice but to leave.

"Let's go."

"Where to go? Have you found Tantai Yangbing yet?" Su Wuming asked.

Mu Qing walked outside, "I don't know what happened with the fight just now. I have to find Gu Yinghe."

Su Wuming and Dongfang Xiaotian hesitated for a while, but finally decided to go with Mu Qing.

The three people came and went in a hurry, and the underground space returned to its usual tranquility. After half a stick of incense, ripples of formation flashed on the smooth wall, and two figures walked out first.

Ying Zhu stood where Mu Qing and the two had stood before, his eyes fell on the stone boxes on the ground, and he thought thoughtfully: "They have actually discovered us."

Wei Shengling looked at the direction Mu Qing left, hesitated to speak, and said to Ying Zhu with guilt: "Sister Ying Zhu, it's my fault, I brought trouble to everyone."

The reason why she didn't come out to meet Mu Qing just now was because her companions didn't trust Mu Qing and the others, but this was normal. Anyone who had experienced what just happened would never want to have contact with outsiders again.

Someone muttered: "We only want to protect ourselves, but it is so difficult. If we had known it would be like this, we might as well..."

Ying Zhu looked back at the speaker coldly, "Why don't we give up resistance and let the poison transform us into monsters?"

The man lowered his head and said nothing.

The atmosphere in the hall became oppressive.

Wei Shengling looked at the companions around him and felt the same, looking a little lonely.

Tantai Ding once told Mu Qing that a total of 201 people in Mishima participated in the secret realm trial and died in the secret realm. As the great elder of the Shenhui, he only regarded these people as dead.

But in fact, there are fifty-four people in the secret realm who still retain their memories as humans.

Among these fifty-four, a small number have complete memories and personalities, and have voluntarily left the team loyal to Zhi Ming, and this small number are people like Wei Shengling.

Ying Zhu looked at the caves between the stone walls with a heavy heart.

Over the years, in order to resist the erosion of consciousness by that terrible poison, they have almost stopped progressing. Some have been trapped and died in this struggle. Some cannot bear this way of survival with almost no hope and choose to leave. The opening of the secret realm again will undoubtedly have a devastating impact on their already fragile status quo.

Ying Zhu has been leading everyone to seek a real way out, but he is desperate because the stubborn methods are simply not something that beings at their level can withstand.

Ying Zhu discovered this cruel truth. Faced with the silent silence of her companions today, she also understood that everyone was actually the same as her.

Wei Shengling was the first to break away from the sadness and despair. She looked at Ying Zhu and found that Ying Zhu, who was always strong and cheering everyone up, had stopped talking. She was a little flustered and said: "Sister Ying Zhu, That person just now is the Mu Qing I was telling you about."

Ying Zhu's eyes moved slightly, and he walked over and picked up the stone box that was placed messily on the ground. After opening it, he found that the elixir was still there. He nodded slowly, "Listen to me, his Taoist companion is still the daughter of that guy Ying Que?"

Wei Sheng Ling Yile: "That's right! I didn't expect that guy Ying Que would have a daughter after he left."

Ying Zhu was left in the secret realm during the last trial. The situation in the secret realm is different from the outside world. Generally speaking, those who participated in the trial for the last time are likely to have complete memories and personalities, while those who existed earlier, Almost all of them have lost their humanity and become real monsters.

Ying Zhu thought about the past and was silent for a moment. Now she was becoming more and more distracted, which made her a little alarmed. She knew that she was about to reach the limit, and she would either choose to die or live like Tantai Wenrui.

Ying Zhu said: "You seem to have a good impression of this young man named Mu Qing?"

Wei Shengling said: "Because he said that some of his companions have been poisoned, and he wants to help everyone get out of their current predicament."

Ying Zhu smiled and turned around to make some jokes, but after seeing the anticipation and seriousness in Wei Sheng Ling's eyes, he changed his words: "Maybe this young man can really do it. I know you really want to go." Go to him, if you really decide and know the consequences, then go for it."

Wei Shengling finally heard what she wanted to hear and was very happy: "Then I'll go. If he can save the young lady, I can also thank him in person."

Watching Weisheng Ling go away, some people couldn't help but worry: "Xiao Ling is the most innocent. She hasn't realized that we are different from these outsiders until now. What if those people hurt her?"

"Isn't this the case often?" Ying Zhu laughed at himself, "If this attempt still doesn't work, then I would rather die than degenerate into a monster that devours my companions."

Some people sighed, while others regained hope and said, "The elixir collected this time grows next to the cracks in the abyss. It may or may not have miraculous effects..."

Along with the discussion, Ying Zhu led his like-minded companions back to the only place behind the wall that still retained hope.

There is a new drug trial waiting to be started.

At this time, at the entrance of the passage, Mu Qing and the others did not leave.

Dongfang Xiaotian looked at the two people who were standing quietly and didn't leave, and asked doubtfully: "Didn't you say that they don't want to see us? Why are you still here?"

Mu Qing was about to speak when he heard the movement coming from the passage. He raised his eyebrows slightly and stepped aside. Su Wuming followed suit.

"ah--"

Wei Shengling, who hurried out, saw Dongfang Xiaotian blocking the outside and let out a soft breath. Fortunately, she immediately saw Mu Qing not far away.

Mu Qing smiled and nodded towards her, apologetically saying: "We actually followed you, sorry."

Wei Shengling shook his head and remembered the business, "We have all heard what you said. You guessed it right, but a young lady was kidnapped."

"Um?"

The smile on Mu Qing's face froze, and things seemed to deviate from his expectation. He quickly asked Wei Shengling for details, and then he realized that Gu Yinghe had been kidnapped by Gu Yuan.

Dongfang Xiaotian was amazed when he heard this: "Gu Yinghe really has the strength to become a mortal at the peak, but how could she be captured by Gu Yuan? Is it because she was suppressed by this place?"

Wei Shengling recalled the details at that time and said: "My attention was on Sister Ying Zhu at that time, and I only heard the two of them talking about some forbidden curse."

"Is it a forbidden blood curse?"

"Yes, that's it!"

Mu Qing's eyes darkened, and based on the inconsistent expressions of Gu Yuan described by Wei Shengling, he was able to determine that there was still a split soul of Gu Yun in Gu Yuan's body.

But now, it is Gu Yun's split soul that controls Gu Yuan's body.

Then Gu Yinghe's situation is probably very bad.

Mu Qing thought for a while, took out the Yin Wood Card from the Najie, and said: "This matter has nothing to do with you, I have to save people."

Wei Shengling said quickly: "We will go with you."

Mu Qing shook his head and said: "When dealing with people from the Gu family, having more people is not an advantage. I can go alone."

Mu Qing looked at Wei Shengling with a somewhat anxious look, and with a movement in his heart, a clone separated.

When Dongfang Xiaotian saw this scene, his face trembled: "Is your body following us?"

Mu Qing can now have four clones at the same time, but it consumes a lot of money. At this time, his face turned pale and he said to the three of them: "You can wait for me nearby. I will come back and join you after I save the people."

Mu Qing turned to Wei Shengling and said, "Don't worry, they won't hurt you, I'm here too."

The situation was urgent. Mu Qing didn't have time to talk to Wei Sheng Lingduo, so he used the guidance of the Yin Mu sign to fly in a certain direction.

Some people died, but not completely...
