The possibility of powerful experts or monsters hiding in the cave was not high.
If there were people or monsters, they would have come out during the previous fight.
But it’s better to be safe than sorry…
Chen Fan let the Golden Gyrfalcon and the King Death Spider guard everyone, one at the front and the other at the back.
Chu Xuan also had the Dark-blood Stone Golem provide everyone with “Obsidian Armor”.
Afterwards, Chen Fan turned his head and gave a signal to the Elder Ape hiding in the “Shadow Canopy”.
The Elder Ape quickly sneaked into the cave.
Chen Fan held the knife sheath in his left hand and gripped the hilt with his right hand, ready for anything!
In a short while, the Elder Ape quietly came out: “There are no people or monsters inside, just a pile of bones and a huge array, along with a large number of monster corpses.”
Chen Fan straightened up and let out a sigh of relief.
Seeing Chen Fan relax, Ye Hao whispered, “Brother Fan, what happened? Is everything okay?”
Everyone’s gaze naturally turned to Chen Fan.
Unconsciously, they all began to rely on Chen Fan as their backbone.
Chen Fan said softly: “I had Elder Ape go in and check; it said there are no people or monsters inside, just a pile of bones and a huge array, and a large number of monster corpses.”
“Even so, we should still be careful.’
“Blackie, you stand guard outside. If there’s any problem, inform me immediately.”
“Come on, let’s go in and take a look!”
Leaving behind Blackie, Chen Fan led Snowy and the others to the cave entrance where the Sacred Moon Morning Glory had detected something unusual.
Chu Xuan and Shen Hongxiu, along with their Guardian Beasts, followed as well.
The cave was enormous…
Even with Golden Gyrfalcon’s size, standing at the entrance of the cave was like a tiny insect by a giant mouth.
Hot, pungent air rushed out of the cave, making everyone cover their nose and mouth.
Surprisingly, this air was mixed with a strong scent of blood!
Shen Daodao furrowed his brows, and with a whirl of his eyes, he whispered,
“You guys go ahead, I’ll keep watch outside.”
Ye Hao sneered, “Brother Fan, this guy is so cowardly that he’s too scared to even enter the cave. Moreover, he probably wants to take advantage of us going in to steal the Crystals Cores of the monsters… who knows, he might even try to drain the Blood Petal Flower King’s blood!”
Shen Daodao’s face turned pale, and he resentmently retorted, “How can you slander an innocent person? Am I that kind of person?”
Everyone nodded their heads in agreement.
Shen Daodao:
A sense of isolation and betrayal washed over him.
Chen Fan hit Shen Daodao’s stomach with the knife handle, “You go in front and scout the path for us.”
Shen Daodao was furious, “Why should I?”
Walking in the front was definitely the most dangerous.
If they encountered a monster, the person in the front would be the most unfortunate.
Shen Daodao refused.
However, the group silently stared at him, not saying a word.
Feeling uneasy, Shen Daodao looked to Shen Hongxiu for help with pleading eyes.
Shen Hongxiu smiled sweetly, “Listen to your brother-in-law.”
“…” Chen Fan’s forehead vein throbbed once.
It was difficult for most people to resist this woman.
With no other choice, Shen Daodao gripped his longsword and led the way with a mournful face.
Ye Hao followed behind, occasionally dropping a moonlight stone.
Under the faint glow of the moonlight stones, even though the cave was very hot, Shen Daodao felt cold all over.
After walking slowly for more than ten minutes… The space ahead suddenly became much wider.
A vast hall-like open space appeared before them.
With the help of the moonlight stones’ glow, they saw piles of white bones surrounding a strange, pitch-black, three-meter-tall spire that stood in the center of the “hall” and couldn’t help but gasp…
These bones, large and small, were very peculiar.
There were remains of fierce beasts, bodies of different races, and many human skulls.
On the ground, trenches were dug out by sharp weapons to form a strange array.
Blood was still flowing within the trenches!
Meanwhile, the eerie, square stele stood in the center of the array!
Surrounded by spooky dark qi, the pitch-black stele was engraved with countless tadpole-like runes that flickered dimly, appearing and disappearing from time to time.
To the right of the group, hundreds of monster corpses were piled up like a mountain!
Eerie gusts of wind blew, as if someone was crying, whispering, or monsters were howling…
Even those wearing cold-resistant battle armor felt a bone-chilling coldness!
This “hall” felt like a gateway to hell, making people fearful and sending shivers down their souls!
“Chen… Chen Fan, let’s… let’s… get out of here…”
With a mournful face and a lowered voice, Shen Daodao said, “This is too fucking scary!”
“I feel like… just now… something touched my ears!”
Ye Hao jumped in fright, looking around with his axe in hand like a startled bird.
Chu Xuan and Shen Hongxiu, however, remained calm and composed.
Chen Fan didn’t speak. Instead, he tightened his grip on the knife handle and slowly walked to the edge of the array.
It was too strange…
Facing such a bizarre and terrifying scene, he actually felt a bit excited!
He couldn’t describe the feeling.
But there was a strange sense of familiarity, just like when he was killing in the Black Ant Forest…
Having never killed before, his actions were swift and decisive, and there was an inexplicable excitement in his heart!
What was going on?
Suddenly, Shen Hongxiu stepped forward and said, “This array seems to be incomplete….”
