Chapter 393: Mysterious Palace

"Wow wow wow..."

Lin Chen opened his mouth and spit out several mouthfuls of blood, his face was so pale that there was no blood.

On the other side, Xia Lan fainted and died on the ground not far from him.

The mother body of the Man-eating Vine is a sixth-level high-level monster, and its strength is inherently stronger than the sixth-level high-level monster of the same level. If it weren't for Lin Chen's already very strong physical fitness, plus his ability to control With the way of strength, I am afraid that if I am hit by the blow from the cannibal vine mother body, I will faint directly like Xia Lan.

Lin Chen and Xia Lan were hit by the cannibal vine's mother body, and Little Storm Bear was no exception.

However, the little violent bear used the way of the beast god, and his body was extremely strong. Facing the attack of the cannibal vine's mother body, the little violent bear was also blasted out, but his injuries were much smaller than those of Lin Chen and Xia Lan, and the most important thing was that , hit by the blow from the cannibal vine's mother body, the little violent bear was lucky enough to be knocked away from the cannibal vine's encirclement.

"This is bad!" Lin Chen smiled bitterly. He originally planned to use the Yin-Yang Jade Pendant to suppress the cannibal vine's mother body and then escape. Who knew that the cannibal vine's mother body was so powerful that it could even compete with the Yin-Yang Jade Pendant's attack by a peak warrior in the True Dao Realm? There was nothing they could do to get it.

Now Xia Lan fainted and died, Lin Chen was also seriously injured, and the little raging bear was knocked away. It can be said that there is no way out!

"Huh? This underground cave..." At the critical moment, Lin Chen suddenly saw the underground cave he had discovered before. He was now only a few hundred meters away from the cave he had discovered before, and could see it at a glance.

When his soul power swept over before, Lin Chen only saw that the cave was bottomless and extremely dark inside. He thought that the underground cave was created by the mother body of the cannibal vine. But now with the naked eye, he saw something in the underground cave. There is a red light looming.

"Although the mother body of Man-Eating Vine is a sixth-level high-level monster and is more powerful than monsters of the same level, it is different from ordinary monsters. The mother body of Man-Eating Vine has very low intelligence. If it wants to create an underground cave, it will be impossible. Get out the red light inside..."

Several thoughts quickly flashed through Lin Chen's mind. Suddenly, his eyes lit up: "The red dot on the map!"

The position of the red dot on the map shows that it is behind the Niutou Peak. After Lin Chen, Xia Lan and Little Bao Xiong had fought continuously with the mother body of the Man-eating Vine, they were now some distance away from the Niutou Peak, just in line with the red dot on the map. corresponding to the point position.

In addition, this underground cave is so weird, it is more in line with the characteristics of a treasure map.

"Little guy, you go first!" Lin Chen gathered his true energy, roared, grabbed Xia Lan, and flew towards the underground cave in a flash.

Xia Lan was seriously injured and unconscious. Lin Chen had no choice but to let her go into the underground cave.

"Hoho." The little violent bear saw Lin Chen's actions and understood what he meant. With a roar, it also strode towards the dense forest.

"Chichi, chichi..."

Seeing the two people and one beast who were originally together suddenly separated, the cannibal vine mother became a little confused and didn't know who to attack. But soon, its bloody mouth was aimed at Lin Chen and Xia Lan. Lin Chen had injured it before, but the cannibal vine mother clearly remembered it.

However, although the cannibal vine mother body reacted, it was still far away from Lin Chen and had no time to stop Lin Chen from entering the underground cave.

"roll!"

The mother body of the cannibal vine had no time to come over, but the cannibal vine vines close to Lin Chen were able to attack him. However, the attack power of these cannibal vines is not strong and they pose little threat to Lin Chen.

Lin Chen roared, swung the true spirit sword in his hand, and knocked away several man-eating vines. In a flash, he led Xia Lan into the underground cave.

"Chichi!"

Lin Chen and Xia Lan had just entered the underground cave, and the mother cannibal vine also rushed over from the other side. What's weird is that this underground cave can obviously accommodate the entry of the cannibal vine mother body, but it lingers in front of the cave, not daring to enter at all, as if it is very afraid of the underground cave.

…

Entering the underground cave, Lin Chen felt his body falling rapidly. From an unknown place deep in the ground, there was a faint red light gushing out. Lin Chen released his soul power and enveloped the surroundings, only to find that his soul power could not detect the bottom of the underground cave.

"How deep is this underground cave?"

Lin Chen was surprised, knowing that his soul power could cover a range of fifteen thousand meters, but within such a range, he still could not detect the situation underground.

Relying on his soul power, Lin Chen also discovered that the man-eating vine was lingering outside the cave and did not dare to enter. Seeing this scene, Lin Chen also breathed a sigh of relief. At least for the time being, he did not have to worry about the danger of the man-eating vine's mother body.

When originally dealing with the mother body of the Man-Eating Vine, Lin Chen had prepared a back-up plan. The first was the Yin-Yang Jade Pendant, and the second was the bracelet given to him by Master Tianyun. The bracelet is a defensive treasure. After being activated, it can withstand a blow from a strong person in the early stage of Baoyuan Realm. Using the bracelet, there is absolutely no problem in temporarily resisting the attack of the cannibal vine mother body, but the important thing is that the latter's attack is too Quick, Lin Chen didn't have time to push the bracelet.

However, it was precisely because of being attacked by the cannibal vine mother that Lin Chen accidentally found the specific location of the red dot on the map.

"Unexpectedly, the red dot on the map is this cave. In order to find the red dot on the map, the Gu family did not hesitate to offend the forces behind Xia Lan and wanted to kill her. They didn't know what was in this cave that could make them so crazy. Lin Chen thought to himself.

He was very curious about the depths of the ground and wanted to see what was there. He let his body fall without stopping. However, while falling, Lin Chen did not stop exploring the ground with his soul power. After all, the inertia of falling so continuously was very strong. If he fell to the ground, even if Lin Chen had a strong physique, he would probably be smashed into a pulp.

There was a whirring sound in his ears. Lin Chen could see the cave wall climbing up quickly, and his body was falling.

"Um..." At this moment, a soft moan suddenly sounded in Lin Chen's arms, and Xia Lan slowly woke up from her coma.

"What's going on?" Seeing that she was lying in Lin Chen's arms, Xia Lan's face showed a blush. She struggled slightly, broke free from Lin Chen's arms, and then looked at Lin Chen with a puzzled look.

Lin Chen was a little embarrassed and said, "This is an underground cave behind the Niutou Peak. It should be the red dot on the map."

"You mean, this cave is the location of the red dot?" Xia Lan frowned and recalled the things before she fell into a coma. Originally, Lin Chen planned to repel the mother of the man-eating vine and then they escaped, but he didn't expect to anger the mother of the man-eating vine and attack them with all his strength. Then, Xia Lan fell into a coma.

Lin Chen nodded and said, "Well, the red dot on the map is behind the Niutou Peak, which is consistent with the location of this underground cave. Moreover, the mother of the man-eating vine seems to be the guardian of the underground cave, or it is afraid of this cave and dare not come in."

As soon as Lin Chen finished speaking, a red light suddenly bloomed around.

The two were stunned and looked down, and immediately a blood-red lake was imprinted in their eyes. Lin Chen's soul power enveloped the area below, and he could see everything clearly. The bottom of the underground cave was a blood-red underground lake. There was no land on the lake, and the whole space exuded a strong smell of blood, which was extremely strange.

"Be careful!"

As he spoke, Lin Chen mobilized his true energy to slow down his descent, but was shocked to find that there was an extremely strong attraction coming from the blood-red lake, and his descent speed could not be reduced at all.

The same was true for Xia Lan.

The two looked at each other, nodded slightly, and pulled out their swords.

Plop, plop!

In just a moment, the bodies of the two fell into the blood-red lake.

Whoosh whoosh...

As the two entered the blood-red lake, the entire lake rolled up, as if it was boiling. Under the rolling lake water, streams of blood-red mist formed, filling the entire underground space.

The red water of the lake was boiling, but Lin Chen and Xia Lan knew nothing about it. The force of the two people's fall was very great. They fell into the deepest part of the underground lake. The strange thing was that after they fell into the lake, the attraction acting on them disappeared.

Lin Chen and Xia Lan were both warriors in the middle stage of the True Dao Realm. The red water of the lake had no effect on their vision.

"Be careful!" Xia Lan nodded slightly to Lin Chen, holding a sword and looking around vigilantly.

This lake was very large, and there was no end at all. The two bodies stopped in place and did not move around.

Lin Chen's soul power was also released, covering a radius of 15,000 meters around, but there was nothing in this area except the blood-red blood water, and there was no danger at all.

"Go down and take a look." After a moment of hesitation, Lin Chen moved and dived deeper into the lake.

Xia Lan hesitated slightly and followed him to dive deeper into the lake.

After a while, the two stopped in front of a huge, dilapidated palace.

"How can there be a palace?" Lin Chen looked surprised. There was actually a huge palace under the lake. It was a bit too weird.

The most important thing was that the entire palace was surrounded by a stream of Gangqi. Gangqi was extremely aggressive. A small amount of Gangqi could kill a warrior in the True Dao Realm. The amount of Gangqi in this palace was outrageous. With so much Gangqi, let alone a warrior in the True Dao Realm, even a strong man in the Bao Yuan Realm would definitely die if he entered!

Lin Chen had already seen the power of Gangqi in the inheritance hall.

"Could it be that this is the ruins of an ancient sect?" Xia Lan was also very surprised. The incomplete map, the mother body of the man-eating tree, the blood-red lake, and the huge palace all gave people a weird feeling.

Lin Chen nodded slightly. Xia Lan was right. The palace in front of him could indeed be the ruins of an ancient sect. After all, the palace in front of him was too dilapidated.

The most important thing was that there must be powerful and precious treasures in the ruins of an ancient sect.

But...

"The whole palace is covered by the Qi. With our strength, we will definitely die if we go in." Lin Chen narrowed his eyes. Although he had a bracelet given by Master Tianyun that could withstand the full force of a strong man in the early Baoyuan realm, there was too much Qi here. I am afraid that even if I activate the bracelet, I can't resist the Qi attack for too long.

When Lin Chen and Xia Lan were surprised by this huge palace, the blood-red water on the lake surface was churning more and more violently, and the blood-red mist formed was getting more and more, and it was already extremely dense...
