Chapter 188 - Shock in Xiayang County

A ray of ghostly light fell in the desert of Xiayang County.

All kinds of news suddenly spread in Xiayang County.

Some say that a secret ancient underground palace was born somewhere, while others say that ghosts are plotting in the desert.

After receiving the news, a large group of adventurers rushed to the small towns around the desert. After a short rest, they formed teams and headed eagerly to the center of the desert, hoping to discover the secrets hidden in the desert before others. .

If anyone knew why this holy light fell, it would not arouse everyone's curiosity.

But no one knew what happened.

From Princess Xia Yang to ordinary adventurers, no one knew anything about the holy light and the legendary ancient underground palace.

Thousands of miles of desert is isolated from the world, like a mystery shrouded in black mist, and no accurate news has been spread.

It was an exception that Ye Fan and the three girls were able to appear in the sandstone town far away from the middle of the desert in just half a day.

The rest of the people who escaped from the underground palace, even if they were Wu Zun, could not walk fast on the sand even if they were riding horses.

An ordinary caravan would have to walk for seven or eight days, and it would take at least three days for them to leave this desert and bring accurate information about what happened in this underground palace to the outside of the desert.

This mysterious desert naturally aroused the strong interest of countless Martial Lords, and more and more people came here.

...

Shashi Town, although it is getting late.

But the streets were full of people, people were raising their heads and horses were neighing, and there was an endless stream of warriors coming here.

This town is the closest town to the center of the desert, and it can be regarded as a must-stop for crossing the desert. Therefore, many martial arts masters come here first to inquire about the news, then prepare dry food and water, and go together to the depths of the desert to find "hidden secrets".

Ye Fan and the three girls were having dinner at the most luxurious restaurant in the town. When they heard many warriors talking excitedly about searching for treasures in private, the four of them were speechless.

Of course they knew what was in the desert. There was a whole purple-gold black-iron coffin tomb containing treasures, an underground palace shrouded in the "ghost world", and a terrifying and powerful ghost lord. Now head to the great desert, which is a dead end.

Cao Youwen whispered to the other three people: "Should we tell them the truth about the underground palace? Lest they die?"

Mu Bing thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "Is it useful to say that?! There are ghost princes in this desert, and the Ghost Saint has descended into a 'ghost world', and death will turn into ghost soldiers! We met the ghost prince, But it didn't kill us, and it only took us half a day to escape from the desert that was thousands of miles away! Who would believe this! This is so outrageous. If I hadn't just escaped from the desert, I would have heard others say this I don't even believe it myself."

Qin Yu'er also said: "Sister Youwen, they won't believe you if you do them a favor. The truth seems so false, and the rumors seem so true. I guess they will only listen to it as a joke or a newly made-up rumor."

"Oh, that's right! The rumors are more true than the truth."

Cao Youwen thought about it and gave up the idea.

"Let's stay here for a while and see the situation. I just hope that fewer people will die."

Ye Fan took a sip of wine and said helplessly.

The fact that Gui Hou came out of the purple gold coffin is directly related to them.

Of course, even if he didn't pick up the scroll of Emperor Wu's suicide note and release the Ghost Marquis. When other large groups of adventurers arrive at the underground palace, they will also take away Emperor Wu's suicide note and release the ghost prince. Therefore, it is inevitable that the Ghost Lord will come out of the Zijinxuan Iron Coffin Tomb. No matter if he did it or not.

But after all, he released it with his own hands, and he felt a little guilty.

Ye Fan didn't want to be patted on the butt, so he just left without paying attention to anything.

Just when Ye Fan and the three girls had finished dinner at the restaurant, they were about to go back to the inn to rest.

"Boom!"

A 2,000-strong cavalry team with bright armor and seemingly high morale entered the sandstone town from outside the town.

The leader among them is a young warrior who rides a tall horse, wears a big red cloak on his back, and a mysterious sword at his waist, looking like a city lord.

Immediately, the warriors in all the inns and restaurants along the street looked at the team of city guards.

Wu Zun soon recognized him and started talking in low voices. This team is the city guard of Huangsha City, the city closest to Shashi Town. The leader of the team is Ye Meijing, the lord of Huangsha City.

"Everyone! This is Ye Meijing, the Lord of Huangsha City in Xiayang County!"

The young Martial Lord rode a tall horse and stopped in the middle of the street. He raised his head proudly, raised his hands to the many Martial Lords on both sides of the street, and said:

"On the order of the princess, the city lord went to the desert to investigate the unexpected arrival of a ghostly holy light. Because of the emergency, I sent troops to block the way out of the desert. No entry is allowed but no exit. I hope you will understand and don't cause trouble. .The princess will arrive soon in a few days. I don't want the princess to see this place in a mess when she comes. I, Ye Meimei, plan to take the first step to investigate the situation in the desert for the princess and share the worries of the princess. . Recruit a group of adventurers here to accompany this city lord!"

As soon as Ye Meimei finished speaking, she immediately aroused responses from many martial masters.

They originally wanted to go into the desert and find out. It's just that without a leader, they can go in only in twos and threes, so it's definitely not very safe.

Since Lord Ye Meijing is willing to take the lead, they are naturally willing to follow. Moreover, with the large number of people, Ye Meijing must be much safer.

"Since Lord Ye is willing to take the lead, we are naturally willing to follow!"

"Let's go too!"

Soon, as many as hundreds of warriors came out of the inn and restaurant, expressing their willingness to follow the Lord Ye Meijing and go to the desert to investigate the situation.

A huge team composed of Huangsha City cavalry and adventurers set off overnight and entered the desert.

...

Ye Fan and the four of them sat in the restaurant and watched this large group of people enter the desert.

"Is this Ye Meijing the brother of Ye Liangchen? Ye Fan, are you really not related to the Ye family in Xiayang County?"

Mu Bing looked strange.

Ye Liangchen, the chief guard captain of the county, had just died in the front, and Ye Meijing, the lord of Huangsha City, had just rushed to die.

This headstrong Ye Meijing probably thought that there were great benefits in the desert, so he led a large group of people and hurried to die without waiting for the princess to come!

To be able to hold such important positions as "Captain of the County Guards and Lord of Huangsha City" at such a young age must be a direct descendant of the Ye family.

She couldn't bear to see it. If the situation continued, the core direct descendants of the younger generation of the Ye family in Xiayang County would probably suffer heavy casualties.

"They should be brothers, they all have the same style! We are absolutely incompatible with the Ye family of Xiayang County."

Ye Fan sighed slightly and laughed at himself.

...

A few days later.

After this huge team entered the depths of the desert, they disappeared forever, leaving no trace and no news came out.

Both Ye Fan and the three women knew that most of this team was unfortunately killed.

But others don't know that the number of adventurers pouring into Huangsha Town is still endless. Instead of decreasing, the number of adventurers is increasing.

However, there was no news from the team that entered the desert before. The warriors who came behind them suspected that they had an accident and did not dare to go in easily.

Ye Fan and others have not left Shashi Town for the time being due to the blockade.

They stayed in Shashi Town, waiting for news.

Ye Fan has not been idle these days. He is in the inn, sorting out and studying several treasures he got from the sand village and the underground palace.

"Second Level Trap Technique" written by Liusha, the second leader of the sand bandits, is a book of traps in the Martial Master Realm.

A mysterious weapon of the mask of the bandit leader Gui Mian.

Although these two items obtained from the bandit leader are not considered mysterious treasures, they are still of some use. Traps are quite powerful under certain circumstances.

The ghost-faced mysterious weapon can completely cover one's own aura, making it impossible for the outside world to identify who one is.

As for the third-level soul weapon of the Ghost Priest's Ring obtained from the Ghost Priestess, Ye Fan felt that his trip was even more worthwhile. Wearing a ghost ring on your hand, you can resurrect from the bones and control a low-level ghost soldier.

Although you can only control one low-level ghost soldier, this is an extra combat puppet obtained in vain.

As a human elephant priest, Ye Fan was able to control a ghost soldier wearing a "Ghost Priest's Ring", which definitely took advantage of the ghost tribe.

With this Horcrux, Ye Fan was already very satisfied with this adventure in the desert underground palace.

As for the meteorite gravity stone pendant and meteorite ice stone pendant obtained from the golden-armored skeleton and the red-armored skeleton, they are both third-level treasures, which are two huge surprises.

The meteorite is sealed in the mysterious weapon and can be used in battle.

But in fact, their main function is not for fighting, but for training.

For example, if a warrior is in a "ten times gravity field" for a long time, it will greatly strengthen the physical body and strengthen the practice of martial arts moves.

Martial Lord is in a gravitational field ten times greater, which also has a huge tempering effect. Moreover, the body is automatically tempered under pressure in the gravity field.

The gravity pendant in Ye Fan's hand can release one to one hundred times the gravity when the seal is fully opened, ranging from one foot to one thousand feet. The gravity field attenuates according to the distance, and the power is extremely powerful.

"If you keep yourself in the gravity field for twelve hours a day! You will undoubtedly be practicing at all times."

Ye Fan was quite excited. He put the gravity pendant on his body, injected a small amount of vitality, and turned on one-tenth of the gravity.

Release ten times the gravity and control it within a range of no more than about one foot!

He immediately felt a heavy pressure on him. This gravity made him slightly uncomfortable, but as long as he continued, he would soon adapt to the pressure.

As long as he controls it well, this gravity will only affect himself and will have little impact on the surrounding environment and people.

As for the meteorite ice stone, it has a special training effect against ice martial arts cultivators. The meteorite ice stone can release a freezing field, and the surrounding area will instantly become extremely cold.

Ice martial arts cultivators can definitely get twice the result with half the effort when practicing and performing vitality skills in the ice field.

It's just that the Shashi Town Inn is too small, and the cold air can easily escape, making it a bit troublesome to control.

Ye Fan didn't dare to experiment with this ice stone pendant, and he couldn't test its power yet.
