Chapter 450 Traces Of Battle
Chapter 450 Traces Of Battle
"Hey, look! What is that!"
There was a small palace at the center of the altar. Meng Die pointed at the top of the main entrance of the palace and shouted.
Xiang Nan was playing with his new saber. Hearing Dream butterfly 's shout, he turned around and saw a small page flapping its wings and floating there.
"Fortunately, I came underground. Otherwise, I would have missed it." Xiang Nan nodded and pointed at the page, "Little Sparrow, come back!"
Little Sparrow cried out happily and rushed out with a whoosh.
The page immediately flapped its wings and fled. Although its flying speed was not as fast as the little bird's, its flexibility in turning was better than the little bird's.
The little bird flew left and right, continuously chasing after the pages of the book. It seemed to be very happy.
"So those with wings can fly." Meng Die smiled and said something meaningful.
The target of this no-fly zone was those people and creatures that could not fly, but could suddenly fly afterwards.
For example, humans could not fly, but because they had Yuan Qi, they could fly. But even though the little bird was a demonic beast, it was still a bird. Even if it did not have the identity of a demonic beast, it could still fly. Therefore, such a flying species was not affected by the no-fly zone.
Xiang Nan allowed the little bird to chase after the pages, while he continued to explore his Dragon Blood Saber.
He gently touched the blade with his left hand, and could feel that a spiritual sense was being nurtured inside the blade.
This Spiritual Sense was the embryonic form of the artifact spirit, but because it had just appeared, it was still unable to float out in its complete form and was still in the saber.
Meng Die said, "Good brother, as long as you use this saber properly and do not disappoint its spirit and will, its artifact spirit will surely grow stronger in time. Perhaps one day, its artifact spirit will be able to fly out of the saber and help you fight together."
Xiang Nan nodded. He was very clear about the artifact spirit.
Taking advantage of the fact that it was safer now, Xiang Nan attracted the heavenly lightning. While recovering his Yuan Qi, he slowly recovered his cultivation base.
He discovered that as long as the Phaseless Tribulation Finger was released, his realm would drop regardless of whether he hit the enemy or not.
After his cultivation level dropped, he would slowly recover, recovering once every five minutes. If he used the Phaseless Tribulation Finger three times, it would take him fifteen minutes to fully recover.
After grasping the laws of the Tribulation-free Finger, Xiang Nan knew how to make better use of it in the future.
"Cha cha! Cha cha!"
The bird's impatient cries resounded in the air. It chased after the page for half an hour, but it was still unable to catch it.
"Help this little fellow. Otherwise, he will be angry to death in a while." Meng Die felt that the little bird was very interesting and couldn't help but laugh.
Xiang Nan smiled faintly. He condensed his Yuan Qi under his feet, and then a burst of lightning exploded beneath his feet, bouncing Xiang Nan back. That speed was so fast that Xiang Nan shot into the air like an afterimage.
With his previous experience in capturing the pages, Xiang Nan was even more familiar with the road this time. When he flew out, he swayed a move and tricked the pages once before grabbing the escaping pages in his hand.
He flipped through the pages and compared the two pages he had obtained earlier, this should be the seventh one he had captured.
"Let's go, it's time to go up." Xiang Nan put away the pages and said, "There are no Heavenly Grade artifact forging materials here. We can look for them at the altar above."
Xiang Nan threw the Dragon Blood Saber into the sky. After the Dragon Blood Saber touched the dome, it began to spin rapidly.
Xiang Nan hugged the Dream butterfly and jumped up. He grabbed the hole drilled by the Dragon Blood Saber with one hand and kept climbing up.
This was the central area of the underground altar, and the corresponding world on the ground was also the central area of the chain.
As soon as the two of them came out, they saw the black ball passageway leading to the next floor.
Xiang Nan originally thought that Sima Nantian and the others would definitely guard him here, and he was already prepared to fight at any time.
However, when he came up, he saw that the result was not the same.
"It seems that there has been a battle here" Dream butterfly cautiously looked around and said, "Look, there are many traces of a fight."
Xiang Nan was also observing. There were traces of weapons hacking everywhere on the ground. All the trees within a mile of him were gone.
Looking further away, a large portion of the trees a mile away were cut off by their waist, and their slices were as smooth as mirrors.
Xiang Nan frowned and said, "Let's go. Let's go to the Third Ring first."
The two of them walked out and passed by the second ring, heading towards the third ring. At this moment, Xiang Nan was suddenly stunned. He pointed at a tree not far away and said, "Look! Does that person look familiar?"
Dream butterfly looked in the direction and saw a person hanging from a tree branch!
One rope was tied to a tree branch at one end, while the other was tied to the neck of a dead martial artist, creating a scene similar to hanging himself. However, it was clear that the man did not commit suicide, but was hung by someone else.
"It's him!" Meng Dieqi said, "I know this person. He is a kid from Sima Nantian's team. How did he die here?"
"Looks like someone did this on purpose. Is he demonstrating against Sima Nantian?"
"Very likely." Xiang Nan's tone became solemn as he said, "The battle scene he saw near the passageway earlier should have been left behind by Sima Nantian and the others."
Xiang Nan's heart was heavy. Who had the ability to kill one of Sima Nantian's junior brothers? Could it be Dong Wu Shang?
Something's wrong. According to the time, Dong Wu Shang is still in the Blissful Hell, using his cultivation technique to consume the spiritual herbs in his body.
"Could there be someone stronger than Sima Nantian?" Meng Die also found it inconceivable. She and Xiang Nan knew very well how strong Sima Nantian was.
"No matter what, we should be careful." Xiang Nan and the other two continued to advance, arriving at the Third Ring District.
The two of them found a three-ring altar. Xiang Nan said, "There are dangers everywhere. It's too dangerous to leave you alone outside. Why don't I send you to the underground world and pick you up when I'm done?"
Meng Die shook her head, "I'm not leaving. I want to accompany you, and what if someone breaks into the underground world?"
"That's right. Follow me to the altar. My strength has increased greatly, so I should be able to protect you."
As he spoke, Xiang Nan pulled Dreambutterfly to the altar in the third ring. The key hidden in his sleeve triggered the mechanism of the altar.
On the first step, a Mechanical Beast walked out.
"A humanoid puppet?" Xiang Nan asked curiously. He didn't expect that the altar in the third ring would no longer be a mechanical bear, but a humanoid puppet.
The appearance of this humanoid puppet was almost the same as that of the humanoid puppets in the underground world! However, the puppets here had a clear realm. They were at the ninth level of Origin Return, and were not as powerful as the puppets in the underground world.
"This puppet doesn't release Yuan Qi, much less understand martial techniques. It shouldn't be difficult."
As soon as the humanoid puppet came out, it quickly ran towards Xiang Nan. It raised its fist high and punched towards Xiang Nan.
