Chapter 249: Deep Secret Path

~7 min read 1,368 words

Xia'er City, Secret Path Cliff.

Accompanied by the harsh sound of machinery, a stone door slowly opened.

At the same time, a cold and foul-smelling aura gushed out.

When the stone door was fully opened, the true face of the secret path was exposed to everyone.

The secret path was deep, dark, and narrow, only wide enough for three people to walk side by side.

The ceiling of the secret path was embedded with fingernail-sized fluorescent stones, which emitted a ghostly green light, illuminating the secret path in a gloomy and terrifying way.

A quarter of an hour later, the moldy air dissipated.

"Start letting people through!"

A kingdom general guarding the door announced loudly.

The adventurers lined up in front of the stone door began to move one after another.

Zhang Xingyu and his group were lined up at the back of the queue.

They wore fluorescent hats, held pathfinding sticks, wore anti-slip boots, and were in standard adventurer gear.

Entering the secret path, the light suddenly dimmed.

Zhang Xingyu wanted to activate the fluorescence on his hat, but was stopped by the fat old man Alex.

"The road is still long." Alex said.

Passing through the long secret path, everyone arrived in a huge underground karst cave.

In front of the karst cave, eight identical arched doors appeared.

Inside the arched doors, it was pitch black without a trace of light.

The adventurers who arrived earlier gathered in the karst cave, none of them continuing forward.

"Let's take the middle one, the middle one should be the safest."

"Not necessarily. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, eight is the luckiest, choose the eighth one."

"Wrong, wrong, wrong, six is the luckiest. Should choose the sixth one."

The adventurers argued noisily, but not one of them took a step.

Following Nina, Zhang Xingyu and his group arrived in front of an arched door.

After standing in front of the arched door for a while, Nina turned to everyone and said: "It's now."

After speaking, she lifted her leg and entered the arched door.

The darkness instantly swallowed her small body.

Following behind Nina, Zhang Xingyu also lifted his foot and stepped in.

Previously, he was still hesitant.

However, seeing Nina's confident little face, Zhang Xingyu chose to trust her without hesitation.

Yes.

He believed that Nina's judgment was not wrong.

Entering the door, everything around was pitch black, unable to see one's fingers.

Just at this moment, a faint ray of light flashed ahead and instantly disappeared.

"I'm here."

Where the light flashed, Nina's voice came.

Zhang Xingyu turned on the fluorescence on his head.

The fluorescence on his head flickered and was swallowed by the darkness all around.

Walking forward a few steps, Nina's voice came to his ears again.

"I am one meter in front of you. This is a light-devouring space, you should turn off the fluorescence first."

Carefully moving forward one meter, he touched a soft object.

"Nina?"

"Where are you touching?"

Demon King Hali's voice sounded.

Zhang Xingyu felt a chill in his heart.

His hand retracted rapidly as if touched by electricity.

Bad luck.

It was clearly the place where Nina spoke, how did it become the demon-demon Hali.

At this time, Nina's voice came again from the left.

"Zhang Xingyu, I'm here. You have to be careful. This place not only devours light but can also make spatial perception chaotic."

Spatial perception chaotic.

It's still better to get closer to Nina.

After entering the secret path, this girl gave him a special feeling.

As if following this girl, he would never lose his way again.

Nina's voice just now came from the left.

Zhang Xingyu was about to take a step, but quickly stopped.

Wrong.

This place's spatial perception is chaotic.

Nina's voice came from the left, so it's possible she was on the right.

Carefully moving a few steps to the right, he touched a soft object again.

"Nina?"

"Zhang Xingyu. You got it wrong. I'm Alex."

Uh.

Vomit, wild vomit.

Thinking of the pile of fat on Alex's body, Zhang Xingyu's stomach acid churned.

"Zhang Xingyu, what's wrong with you?"

Alex's voice was full of concern.

"Don't speak, Alex, let me be quiet. Uh..."

Words unfinished.

Vomit, wild vomit again.

After a long time, Zhang Xingyu felt his stomach finally feel a bit better, so he stood up.

This ghostly place is truly teasing people.

"This space is mostly formed by the stomach of the ancient magic beast 'Chaos Space Beast'. Here, the five senses will be chaotic. So don't believe your eyes, don't believe your ears, and don't even believe your divine sense, but believe your intuition."

Nina's voice came from the right again.

Girl, you should have said that earlier.

Can't you finish speaking all at once, why do you have to divide it into several segments?

Thinking of Demon King Hali's powdered face, thinking of Alex's full body of fat, Zhang Xingyu's stomach acid churned again.

Forget it, don't manage it.

Close your eyes and just walk.

Boom.

Touched a soft object again.

"Zhang Xingyu, hold my hand."

It turned out to be Nina's small hand.

Zhang Xingyu let out a long sigh of relief.

"Hold me, don't let go."

"Okay. Follow you, don't let go."

Stumbling forward for half an hour, the passage ahead suddenly became narrower.

At this time, Nina's voice sounded again.

"Everyone be careful. Entering this passage, inside is the nest of blood-sucking bats. Blood-sucking bats are very sensitive to the smell of blood, everyone be careful, don't get injured and bleed."

"Okay."

Behind came the answers from Alex and Demon King Hali.

Feeling his way through a narrow passage, inside was another underground karst cave.

Vaguely, the sound of wind and water came from the cave.

Zhang Xingyu's mind couldn't help but relax.

With the sound of wind and water, it proved that this damn underground passage was about to end.

The air was filled with a pungent fishy smell.

Zhang Xingyu quickly turned off his sense of smell.

The soles of his feet were very slippery, as if stepping on mud.

"Damn it!"

Behind came Demon King Hali's curse.

Immediately after, a rustling sound sounded.

Demon King Hali seemed to be dealing with something on his feet.

"Don't make any noise."

Nina's words just fell, and the sound of breaking through the air sounded above her head.

"Not good! The blood-sucking bats are awakened!"

Her words just fell, and pairs of blood-red eyes lit up above the karst cave, like fire flowing in the night sky.

Zhang Xingyu only felt his hand tighten, and a great force came from the front, his body flying forward involuntarily.

Unexpectedly, this girl Nina, her body looked thin and small, but the strength in her hands was not small.

Running forward for less than a hundred meters, a giant stalagmite appeared ahead.

Nina stopped.

"Set up the formation!"

The little girl said softly.

Her words just fell, and Alex had already taken out a magic scroll from his bosom.

In the blink of an eye, a thick light shield appeared above everyone's heads.

High-level magic, Light Barrier.

The blood-sucking bats chasing after them hit this light shield and instantly exploded into clusters of blood mist.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Alex looked at Demon King Hali, but didn't speak.

At this moment, Demon King Hali's face had turned into the color of a pig's liver.

His eyes were full of disgust and nausea, and the lower legs that were originally wearing golden boots were exposed to everyone's eyes.

What a pair of perfect legs.

Fair, symmetrical, flawless.

Alex praised softly.

Zhang Xingyu swallowed gently.

Demon King Hali's willow eyebrows stood up, and he glared at Zhang Xingyu fiercely.

Only to see him wave his jade hand, and a pair of white boots were worn on his feet.

Demon King Hali, wearing white boots, seemed even more enchanting and charming than before.

"Go!"

Only to see his red lips part slightly, and his jade fingers flick lightly.

Rays of red light shot out from his fingertips, turning into fire crows and pouncing on the blood bats ahead. ===== CHAPTER 250 =====
