643 The trap and the female corpse in the water

This matter seemed to be very coincidental, but if one were to analyze it carefully, one would discover some suspicious points.

He didn't think that the appearance of the city ruins was a coincidence. On the contrary, someone had known about this place for a long time, so they had subconsciously led the Holy Dragon city's Warriors here.

Otherwise, how could the Barbarian race have left such obvious traces for others to discover based on their survival experience in this area?

The other party seemed to be planning to use the ruins of the City Tower to trap the Holy Dragon City, but they did not know that Tang Zhen had been looking for the ruins of the City Tower all this time. It could be considered as a lucky hit, and they had lured the big BOSS behind the scenes, Tang Zhen, out!

He believed that the barbarian's expression would be extremely interesting when they heard this news!

Fortunately, these Warriors did not act rashly after sensing the danger. Instead, they quickly reported their findings, which prevented the barbarian's plot from succeeding.

Otherwise, once the soldiers of the city were caught in it, it would not be long before traces of barbarian activities appeared by the river again, attracting the next batch of Holy Dragon City soldiers to come here.

Moreover, Tang Zhen had already discovered some traces of barbarians in the vicinity through the map view. Their behavior was extremely suspicious and they were obviously observing the situation here.

However, Tang Zhen didn't say what he was thinking. He also didn't point out the location of the Barbarian spies.

For a cultivator of his level, this kind of underhanded scheme could not cause him any harm at all.

If those barbarians were still reckless and wanted to plot against him, Tang Zhen would naturally not let them off. After all, this was just a casual matter.

The question he was most concerned about now was whether there was anything he wanted in the ruins behind the mountain.

After ordering everyone to be on high alert, Tang Zhen led the ten Holy Dragon City cultivators and followed the crack in the rock that looked like a line in the sky, slowly entering the interior of the giant mountain.

Earlier, Tang Zhen had already completely scouted out the surrounding terrain through the map's view. He knew that this ruined building was located in the middle of a few huge mountain peaks.

Because of the cover of the giant vines on the peak, it was extremely difficult for outsiders to discover it, and thus it was preserved to this day.

Even if they were close, they would still be unable to enter if they did not find the entrance.

Before the tower was destroyed, it must have used the mountain as a barrier to resist the invasion of monsters and enemies.

In this regard, the layout of the city ruins was very similar to the Holy Dragon City, but it was far less vast than Holy Dragon City.

After all, the mountains around the Holy Dragon City were the products of Tang Zhen's hard work. The mountains in the ruins of the city should be natural. There was simply no comparison between the two.

They walked along the narrow and slippery crack. After about ten minutes, the area in front of them finally opened up.

A huge ruined city appeared in front of everyone. It stood alone in the open space between the valleys, looking a little mottled and dilapidated.

The sunlight that passed through the vines scattered on the ruins of the building, making the green moss even more verdant.

Countless vines drooped down from the sky, like a haphazard curtain of beads, directly hovering above the ruins of the building.

The exterior of the building ruins resembled a Western Castle. In some places, there were sculptures of various strange creatures baring their fangs and brandishing their claws, looking very lifelike.

If the ruins of some buildings were not exposed to external forces, it was very likely that they could be preserved for thousands of years.

This was the case for the ruins of the City Tower in front of him. Because it existed in the middle of the valley, it had never been destroyed by the outside world, which was why it was so intact!

Although it was called a ruin, it actually looked no different from an intact building!

In the square in front of the building, there were bones and the remains of weapons and armors scattered everywhere. However, most of them were covered by moss and weeds, giving people a sense of desolation and destruction.

Ever since Tang Zhen saw the ruins of this building, he had a rather uncomfortable feeling in his heart. It was as if there was something that he was extremely disgusted with hidden inside.

Although he didn't know where this feeling came from, Tang Zhen still didn't dare to let his guard down. This was because after he observed the exterior and details of the building ruins, he discovered that the building didn't seem as simple as it looked.

When he first heard the news, he thought this place was the ruins of a low-level city, but now it seemed like he was wrong.

If Tang Zhen's estimation was not wrong, the city ruins in front of him was definitely a top-notch city before it was destroyed. It might even be a national-level city!

Under normal circumstances, the area of a national-level city would be extremely large, and the number of residents would be uncountable.

However, there were exceptions to everything. Some special races had a small population, and some city Lords didn't like to be noisy when there were too many people. This led to their city being very small, and the number of residents was pitifully small.

But even so, it didn't affect the strength of these towers at all. In fact, the less residents a tower had, the more terrifying its strength was.

The reason was simple. Since the other party could complete the advancement quest with so many people, it meant that their strength was definitely beyond imagination!

It was no exaggeration to say that one could fight against a thousand!

Therefore, when he encountered this strange Lou Cheng, it was best to stay as far away as possible and avoid contact with him as much as possible. This was the right way to protect himself.

At this moment, Tang Zhen was repeatedly sizing up the ruins of the City Tower. At the same time, he stepped on the square under his feet and slowly approached. However, a thought was rapidly spinning in his heart.

What exactly happened back then that caused this extraordinary building to be reduced to ruins without suffering much damage?

Where did the residents go? were the scattered bones in the square their remains?

The area of this Plaza was not small. When Tang Zhen passed by a pool in the Plaza, he suddenly stopped.

The pool was beautifully built and the material was like a resplendent gem. Even though it was covered in vines and dust, one could still see the luxurious style of the past.

Tang Zhen did not pay attention to the material of the pool. Instead, he was paying attention to the numerous corpses floating in the pool.

However, compared to the decayed bones in the square, the corpses in the pool did not decay and still maintained their appearance.

His gaze stopped on a corpse and did not move for a long time, but a faint cold light flashed in his eyes.

The corpse should have been a woman when she was alive. She looked similar to a human, but the difference was that she had a pair of translucent wings on her back. The top of her head was covered with colorful feathers, like a crown made of feathers.

At this moment, half of its head was submerged in water, revealing only its palm-sized beautiful little face. Its skin was pale, and its eyes were tightly shut. Its lips were purple to the point of turning black.

Rust and dark green algae had already covered its body and face underwater, giving it a sinister feeling.

Her wide white robe was now loose and fluttering in the water, revealing her half-covered graceful body.

Tang Zhen's eyes were fixed on the corpse. After a full minute, he suddenly raised his hand and gently pointed at the White-clothed lady's corpse.

A cold light rose from Tang Zhen's waist. It was as fast as lightning as it pierced straight towards the middle of the corpse's brows.

It was also at this moment that the white-robed woman's corpse suddenly opened its eyes, revealing a pair of blood-red eyes that were filled with madness and ferocity.

It let out a sinister laugh and instantly sank into the water like a fish in the water, avoiding the attack that Tang Zhen had launched.

When it disappeared, the corpses floating in the pool actually stood up at the same time. Their bodies were wrapped in seaweed. Their feet stepped on the water's surface and directly rushed toward Tang Zhen's position.

The originally calm pool was suddenly filled with waves. Pairs of pale hands wrapped in seaweed reached out of the water and scratched in the air.

The originally quiet Valley was immediately shrouded in a gloomy and terrifying atmosphere!
