As the heavy rain fell, the hanging coffin in the cave suddenly shook violently.
Something seemed to be coming out of it.
Zhang Hao looked at the coffin silently, his face very calm.
Since arriving in the Valley of the Wicked, he has always seemed reckless.
But in fact, he is rough and subtle, and he has never been careless about things that should be cautious.
Most of the weirdos in the Valley of the Wicked are trash, but there are always a few who are unusual.
With the same allocation of resources, some people can exert ten times the power, while others will still be useless even if they are given ten times more.
Geniuses can often break through the limitations of time and environment and surprise people.
The hanging coffin in front of him seemed to Zhang Hao to be such a genius.
The coffin hanging on the ground contained too much strange energy, and with the blessing of various sacrificial objects, the originally small amount of earth energy was confined to one place, and it continued to circulate in the afterlife.
Practitioners in the Valley of the Evil cannot build large-scale cultivation formations because they don't have the energy of earth veins, but there are always people who can come up with sudden ideas.
They couldn't build a large-scale practice formation, so they simply shrunk it down again and again, and finally shrunk it into a coffin.
To put it in layman's terms, the hanging coffin in front of you is a miniature phantom formation of the Stone Tablet Village.
The villagers of Shibei Village used the energy of the earth and the resources of the entire village to build a small island on the sea, surrounded by the sea and with pleasant scenery.
The power of this phantom formation goes without saying, but its real purpose is to relieve the loneliness of the people in the closed village.
In the illusion, they cannot escape from this small world, so they would rather spend most of their resources building an environment, immersing themselves in various environments, and pretending to be detached from the world.
But the hanging coffin in the cave is different.
They don't have many resources, but they are more ruthless than the people who closed the village.
At worst, those who live in a closed village have a village where they can be surrounded by family and friends. Other people in the village can go out of the village to communicate normally and bring back goods and outside experiences for them to imagine and alleviate the loneliness in their hearts.
But hanging coffins are different.
They have too few resources, but it doesn't matter, they are harder on themselves.
The energy couldn't sustain the formation, so they shrunk it into a coffin.
Unable to maintain a nutritional system in the coffin, they simply turned into the living dead and no longer considered energy supply at all.
Life is too hard, and it doesn't matter if you don't have anyone to accompany you. They are used to enduring hundreds of thousands of years of loneliness.
In order to gain strength and evolve the energy of the earth line, they abandoned everything they could throw away, just to obtain a trace of earth line energy.
But now, with the intrusion of Zhang Hao, a living person, the coffin sealed in the cave finally exploded.
With a bang, the coffin boards exploded, and a thick fog filled the cave.
Zhang Hao didn't wait for the thick fog to lock the cave entrance, then took a step forward and walked into the cave.
There was a faint blue light emitting from the coffin board, and there seemed to be a mysterious treasure.
With a smile on his face, Zhang Hao walked step by step to the edge of the coffin. When he looked down, the smile on his face suddenly froze.
There was no dead person in the coffin, and there was no evil ghost. There was only one photo, but in this black and white photo, it was Zhang Hao's face.
The black and white photos, paired with Zhang Hao's own weird smile, give people the feeling of a dead man's portrait.
"Take a photo of me and make it look so ugly, you should be damned!"
Zhang Hao said angrily and reached directly into the coffin.
Miwu seemed stunned for a moment, but she didn't expect Zhang Hao to be so bold.
The reason why it uses the portrait is to scare the other party.
After a person is frightened, his breath will be confused. After confusion, flaws will easily appear.
Countless thick fog seemed to want to wrap up Zhang Hao and drag him into the coffin, but Zhang Hao suddenly snorted coldly, and the energy of the earth veins was like thunder, instantly dispersing all the fog.
Zhang Hao picked up the photo and tore it into pieces in a few strokes.
After doing this, Zhang Hao raised his leg and kicked the coffin board hard without saying a word.
With a bang, a big hole was kicked out of the coffin board.
This move immediately caused the coffin owner to roar.
Vicious howls echoed in the cave.
The entire cave began to tremble violently, countless ghosts and ghosts appeared, and a foul smell filled the air from every corner of the cave.
Immediately, in the shadow of the fog in the cave, there was a sound of heavy footsteps with chains.
Zhang Hao didn't care about this.
He walked to the door of the cave and looked outside coldly, and found that the heavy rain in the night was getting heavier and heavier.
The monster in the shadow behind is getting closer and closer, and the aura on it is getting stronger and stronger.
The sound of footsteps sounded from behind, but the real source of the monster came from the heavy rain.
As the rain washed away, a figure appeared on the stone road.
This man was wearing wrinkled white clothes and was extremely dirty. There was a black shadow on his forehead, which looked like a scar formed by a blood clot.
His body was covered with various wounds.
Zhang Hao looked at the other party indifferently, always feeling that the other party was full of strange aura.
This is a bad guy who is ruthless to himself and even more ruthless to his enemies.
I am afraid that among the countless desperadoes in the Valley of the Wicked, this person can also be ranked in the top ten.
not simple.
This is Zhang Hao's first evaluation.
If the evil ghosts in the Evil Valley were divided into levels, the ones Zhang Hao had encountered before could only be regarded as imps and only ranked at the bottom, while the guy in front of him was enough to be ranked in the second level, which was the evil ghost level.
In the secular world, this person can be regarded as a master.
Of course, this is only for the secular world. If it were placed in Hidden Dragon Mountain, it would still be a minor player.
It's not that he's not powerful enough, it's that he has insufficient congenital conditions.
If you put it in Hidden Dragon Mountain, someone else's one-day share would be enough for him to practice for ten years.
How does this compare?
He worked hard and gave up all the resources he had gained for ten years, but he couldn't catch up with others who practiced casually in one day.
Life is so cruel.
The man tried his best to show how scary he was, but in Zhang Hao's view, he was still extremely ridiculous.
The rain washed over his body, and the air around him seemed to become more and more strange.
Zhang Hao seemed to feel a special air current, which was constantly eroding his body and seemed to want to drag him into the cliff below.
However, the soles of Zhang Hao's feet were rooted and motionless as a mountain. No matter how strong the aura was, it was still unable to cause any harm to him.
"Do you have a legacy?"
Seeing the other party desperately releasing energy, Zhang Hao suddenly felt some sympathy in his heart.
This man indeed deserves to die, but he is so pathetic. With such power, he was just a lowly monster in the Hidden Dragon Mountain, which made him feel absurd.
Zhang Hao was just thinking when he saw the man had already walked in front of him.
His eyes were bloodshot, filled with resentment, but also containing a trace of doubt and anger.
Everyone who saw him would be frightened without exception, but the Zhang Hao in front of him was different.
He didn't see any fear on Zhang Hao's face, but instead saw countless sympathy.
This feeling made him feel humiliated.
He stared at Zhang Hao, his severely injured body trembling violently, and he slowly opened his mouth.
"If you don't like your eyes, dig them out."
His voice was extremely sharp, illogical, and seemed to be able to express only the simplest meaning.
Without waiting for Zhang Hao to reply, he suddenly rushed forward, his whole body turning into black air, and then condensed into a pair of giant claws, and rushed towards Zhang Hao.
His consciousness had been eaten away by the endless loneliness and was about to disappear.
Is it really worth it for cultivation?
Turn yourself into a living dead, and then endure endless loneliness. Even if you are mentally prepared, you still can't bear it, right?
In order to continue to survive, I simply eroded my own wisdom and turned myself into an irrational madman. It seemed that I could survive longer in this way.
But this is nothing more than wishful thinking.
As long as there is wisdom, even if only instinct is left, humans must be social animals.
Zhang Hao looked at the opponent indifferently, and the energy of the earth veins in his hand condensed into a bolt of lightning and hit him hard.
While the black light flashed, the electric current and the black gas collided, making bursts of miserable sounds.
The evil ghost fell to the ground and rolled around desperately. Under the wash of the rain, electric current continued to pass through his body, and bursts of scorch occurred immediately.
"You're not dead."
Zhang Hao looked surprised.
He originally wanted to save the other person and end the other person's miserable and pitiful life.
Unexpectedly, the other party could resist.
This is already the second one.
The zombie before was very durable. I didn't expect this guy to be even more durable than that one.
You know, this ray of lightning he just condensed can easily kill even the little demon in Canglong Mountain.
These monsters in the Valley of the Evil don't seem to be very powerful, but they all have very strong means of saving their lives.
In comparison, the inheritors of Hidden Dragon Mountain obviously do not have this ability.
Although Zhang Hao was surprised, he did not hesitate too much.
The energy of earth veins can completely block the energy in the opponent's body.
Even Wei Sihao was beaten by him into reforming his evil ways, so what does a mere evil ghost mean?
Unless this guy has the strength of the Evil Lord, Zhang Hao will definitely beat him to correct his evil ways.
Bang bang bang!
Li Gui resisted desperately, but was entangled in the energy of the earth's veins, and the originally balanced aura in his body suddenly became extremely chaotic, restricting his movement.
Zhang Hao punched ten times. Seeing that the evil ghost was still okay, the patience in his eyes finally ran out. He took a deep breath and punched out suddenly.
After hearing the flash of black energy, the lightning condensed into the shape of a tiger and hit the opponent hard.
The strange sound suddenly stopped, and countless black energy burst out from his body. Zhang Hao's earth vein energy directly occupied all the space in his body, and instantly squeezed out all his original energy.
Bang.
The evil ghost dissipated into nothingness, and his body completely collapsed.
Zhang Hao blew out a breath and let the energy of the earth's veins disperse all the evil spirits.
The heavy rain interfered with his progress in purifying this person, but it didn't matter.
The energy of earth veins is extremely precious to others, but to Zhang Hao, he can have as much as he wants.
Following the death of this person, cracks suddenly appeared in the cave.
The hanging coffin slowly fell to the ground, making a muffled sound, and then completely turned into ashes.
Among the flying ashes, there were countless silver lights that absorbed the evil ghost's breath, and then turned into streams of flames, erasing all traces in the cave.
Zhang Hao stood at the edge and watched silently until everything in the cave was burned, then he shook his head.
This person's character is indeed persevering. In order to obtain a trace of the power of earth energy, he would rather give up everything, and after his death, he also prepared backup plans.
He seems to think that his inheritance is very precious, so even if he dies, he cannot let others get it for free.
These black flames were all arranged before his death. The purpose was to erase all traces after his death.
Unfortunately, his vision limited him.
He thought that these things were so precious that others would snatch them away with their lives, but in fact, these things were of no use to Zhang Hao at all.
At this time, on the mountain road, another convoy came slowly.
A total of more than a dozen men and women got out of the car. These people were all Internet celebrity anchors from nearby cities.
Their route up the mountain was just on the other side of Lao Liu, so Lao Liu didn't notice them.
"Look, the mountain in front is our destination."
A girl wearing a miniskirt with an unusually hot figure was looking at the Valley of the Wicked among the mountains, feeling extremely excited.
Next to her, three men had peach blossoms on their faces. They had obviously drunk too much and planned to have sex with the girl, but the woman was too lazy to look at them.
"In this Valley of Evil, it is said that all the outlaws are outlaws. We have traveled thousands of kilometers along the way. I hope the rumors are true."
"I don't know if the rumors are true or not, but this place is indeed a bit weird. It seems to be really haunted."
A young man said, unable to help but shiver.
After hearing this, the beautiful anchor glanced at him immediately, with a sarcastic look on her face.
"Didn't you say that that night? Where was your courage? Didn't you say that you would protect me no matter what happened?"
When he heard this, the corner of the man's mouth suddenly twitched, and he kept cursing secretly in his heart.
At that time, I thought you were a pure and beautiful girl, so I just said it casually. Who would have thought that you are a poisonous scorpion girl who eats people without spitting out their bones. If I still protect you with my life, wouldn't I be losing money?
The man cursed in his heart and couldn't help but look at the men next to him, feeling increasingly dissatisfied.
Along the way, men kept being seduced into the team. Although he knew that this woman was just playing for fun and had no real feelings, it still made him a little unhappy.
Obviously she is the financial sponsor of this trip, but this woman doesn't consider her own feelings at all.
After completing this soul-searching mission, you must ask the company again to find a different woman for him.
"Everyone, be careful. I just saw someone walking on the mountain. Could it be that they are fellow travelers?"
The woman suddenly exclaimed and pointed to the mountain road ahead.
After hearing this, everyone was startled and looked at the woman hurriedly, only to find that there was nothing where she said it.
When the woman saw this, her eyes suddenly widened with confusion on her face.
"It's strange. I clearly saw someone, but how could he disappear in the blink of an eye?"
After saying that, she couldn't wait to rush forward. (End of chapter)
