The legend of Zhou Long's Nether Ruins had been circulating in this area for a long time. Even the Dragon Warriors of the Jiang Clan were familiar with it.
It was said that three hundred years ago, there was a Dragon Martial Artist named "Zhou" who had fallen here. This Dragon Martial Artist was the inheritor of the Divine Dragon's blood essence that transcended all living beings. He was extremely powerful, but it was unknown why he had fallen here, forming a vast underground ruin.
Originally, Zhou Long's Nether Ruins was a city.
But now, it was filled with all kinds of green vines and weeds, forming an extremely complicated underground world. Demon beasts were everywhere. Moreover, that "Zhou" had a gloomy innate ability, causing this area to become a paradise for some sinister demon beasts.
For example, the Profound Shadow Snake.
The Profound Shadow Snake was the most common demon beast in Zhou Long's Nether Ruins. It was at least a third or fourth layer Earth Demon. When it came out to hunt, it would attack anyone it saw, unless it was someone with an extremely powerful aura.
Even some seventh or eighth layer Dragon Ascending Realm wandering Dragon Warriors had been killed by the Profound Shadow Snake. All of this was because of the poison in the Profound Shadow Snake's body.
If one was bitten by the Profound Shadow Snake and did not have an antidote, then even if they could kill the Profound Shadow Snake, they would not be able to survive. It was very common for them to die together.
Kang Shin-mu was not worried about this.
Riding on the wings of the Silver Feathered Beast, a total of twenty-two people quickly flew in the direction of Zhou Long's Nether Ruins. When they were within ten miles, waves of sinister wind blew, as if there were invisible hands gently caressing them, causing their hearts to tremble.
The entrance to Zhou Long's Nether Ruins was a cave.
Very quickly, everyone arrived at the entrance of the cave. After entering this cave, it was the Zhou Long's Nether Ruins, an extremely vast and complicated underground world. Gloomy demon beasts were everywhere, and if one didn't have some ability, it was basically impossible to come out alive.
Clearly, the wandering Dragon Warriors who dared to sign up for the search were all confident in their own strength. Otherwise, they would not have come to die in vain.
Although the reward of two thousand dragon coins was not little, it depended on whether they were alive to receive it.
"Alright, go in. Take this. If you find traces of the Snow Sky Fox, just activate this item."
The middle-aged Nirvana Tribulation Eminence wearing a cyan mask gave everyone a dragon talisman.
The Dragon Talisman was a jade talisman that some martial artists had stored their own innate ability. Then, anyone could activate the jade talisman and release the innate ability stored within.
The jade talisman that Kang Shin-mu had obtained was a simple communication jade talisman.
Once he found traces of the Snow Sky Fox and activated the jade talisman, Ji Yexuan and this middle-aged man would know his location.
"However, there is one thing you need to know. I recruited you to find the Snow Sky Fox. If you activate the jade talisman because of some unimportant matter, don't blame me for not showing mercy."
The awe-inspiring words made the nineteen wandering dragon martial artists shudder.
They had thought of activating the Communication Jade Talisman when they encountered other dangers. However, it seemed that this was not the case. The other party would not rush over to save them. After all, to Ji Yexuan, finding the Snow Sky Fox was the most important thing.
As for the lives of other people, what does it matter?
Kang Shin-mu didn't think much of it.
In any case, if it was a Fey Beast, it wouldn't be a threat to him.
"Let's go," Ji Yexuan said coldly.
Then, she took the lead and ran into the pitch-black cave. After a while, she disappeared from everyone's sight.
As for the middle-aged man wearing the cyan mask, he stood at the entrance of the cave and didn't do anything for the time being. It seemed that he wanted to wait for the others to enter before taking action. Or perhaps, he didn't plan to act casually and was prepared to wait for news at the entrance of the cave.
The wandering dragon warriors looked at each other. None of them moved first.
However, Kang Shin-mu didn't think so much. He took the lead and walked into the pitch-black cave.
This scene surprised the wandering dragon martial artists.
"This kid, how dare he go in first? He's really not afraid of death."
"Let's just follow behind him. There won't be any danger for the time being."
The wandering dragon warriors looked at each other and saw the same thought in each other's eyes. That was to follow behind Kang Shin-mu.
To them, protecting their lives was the most important thing. As long as they survived, they would be able to obtain 2,000 dragon coins. As for the 'grand prize' of 100,000 dragon coins, they basically didn't ask for it.
To these wandering dragon warriors, they never believed in good things that would fall from the sky. If they wanted to obtain the 100,000 dragon coins, they would probably be in deep danger.
They admired Kang Shin-mu's courage, but they sneered in their hearts. They wanted to see how this kid would die.
Little did they know that Kang Shin-mu didn't care about the danger at the entrance of the Zhou Dragon Nether Ruins.
Soon, the 19 wandering dragon warriors entered the cave and followed closely behind Kang Shin-mu.
This made the middle-aged man in the cyan mask shake his head inwardly.
This group of wandering dragon warriors was really useless. It was a waste to let them find the Snow Sky Fox. However, he didn't place much hope on them. Instead, he was slightly surprised by Kang Shin-mu's courage.
"This kid seems to be a little different."
The middle-aged man stood at the wide entrance of the Zhou Dragon Nether Ruins. He didn't enter. Instead, he jumped up and hid on the cliff above the cave.
The Zhou Dragon Nether Ruins wasn't completely dark.
Not long after Kang Shin-mu entered, he saw many glowing green vines appear on the surrounding cave walls. The cave was winding, and many of the cave walls were dilapidated. It was obvious that this place was once a city. Unfortunately, it was now buried underground.
From the surrounding air, Kang Shin-mu felt a dense and humid aura. The glowing green vines illuminated the surroundings. Although the wandering dragon warriors behind him were a little afraid, under the dim and strange light of the green vines, they appeared somewhat terrifying and ferocious.
Kang Shin-mu strode forward.
Suddenly, a black shadow jumped out from the shadow of a nearby broken wall and rushed towards Kang Shin-mu, pouncing on him.
With the help of the faint light of the green vines, the wandering dragon warriors discovered that this was a fourth layer Earth Demon Profound Shadow Snake.
Moreover, the moment this Profound Shadow Snake leaped out, it brazenly bit Kang Shin-mu. The poison instantly spread throughout his body.
"This kid is going to die."
"Don't worry about it. Let's quickly go around him. That Profound Shadow Snake has enough prey to eat. It won't care about us."
