"Hmph, don't get cocky too early. Even if he comes here, he won't be able to save you," said the blood-colored Demoness Vine coldly.
For some unknown reason, the Banxianshu had never seen the blood-colored Demoness Vine's true body after being trapped here for several months. Every time the blood-colored Demoness Vine spoke, it would only communicate with it through the void.
As for the reason, the Banxianshu didn't know.
The Banxianshu guessed that the blood-colored Demoness Vine was in a special state and was unable to reveal its true body.
That gave the Banxianshu a glimmer of hope. Now that it knew Fang Chen was fine, it became even more excited.
"Hmph, once I escape, I'll definitely devour you," muttered the Banxianshu.
After an unknown amount of time, Fang Chen's body suddenly moved. Following that, his fingers moved slightly. He slowly opened his eyes and felt that his entire body was exhausted.
"Where is this?"
Fang Chen subconsciously asked as soon as he opened his eyes.
However, when he sensed the familiar aura of the Voidplundering Formation, he felt relieved.
Fortunately, there wasn't any danger within the Voidplundering Formation.
"Wasn't I poisoned by the Poison Bloodvine's poison?"
Fang Chen vaguely remembered that he had been poisoned by the Poison Bloodvine's poison and had lost consciousness. He didn't know what had happened after that, but why didn't he feel any discomfort?
"Could it be that my body is able to resist the Poison Bloodvine's poison?" whispered Fang Chen.
"What are you thinking? Do you think you can resist the Poison Bloodvine's poison with your tiny body?" Ancestor Bronze suddenly shouted.
Fang Chen was startled. He hastily asked, "Ancestor, what happened while I was unconscious? Why did the Poison Bloodvine disappear? Why did the poison in my body disappear?"
Fang Chen had a lot of questions, so he asked them all at once.
"It was your heart that helped you." When Ancestor Bronze mentioned the golden heart, his tone was very grave.
Although he was an expert from the ancient era and had seen many things, he couldn't see through Fang Chen's golden heart at all.
Sometimes, he even thought that Fang Chen's golden heart had surpassed the level of his understanding.
Just now, the poison of the Poison Bloodvine had invaded Fang Chen's body. If he did not have the golden heart, the poison would have spread to Fang Chen's internal organs. In the end, the poison would have killed him.
However, the golden heart sucked all the poison into the heart at the critical moment. Then, the Undying Bird's blood essence released the Undying Flame to burn the poison completely.
"Golden heart!"
When Fang Chen heard this, he immediately looked at the golden heart.
"Of course, it's also thanks to the Undying Bird's blood essence." Patriarch Bronze explained to Fang Chen how the Undying Flame had been released by the Undying Bird's blood essence.
After the latter heard this, he immediately rejoiced.
At the same time, Fang Chen sighed. The poison of the Poison Blood Vine was really overbearing. It would be great if he could possess a Poison Blood Vine plant.
However, this was just a random thought. Fang Chen was very glad that he had been able to come back from the gates of hell.
After communicating with Patriarch Bronze, Fang Chen removed the Void Plundering Array and the swamp returned to its calm state.
Fang Chen tapped the ground with the tip of his foot and continued flying.
Due to the deterrence of the Undying Flame, the Poison Blood Vine no longer dared to come out. Fang Chen easily passed through the swamp.
After passing through the swamp, Fang Chen came to a stone forest.
Yes, it was a stone forest.
In this stone forest, there were countless huge rocks. These huge rocks stood quietly in the open space. There was a strong aura fluctuating above them.
"What is this?"
Fang Chen was puzzled. Ever since he had entered the Devil's Mountain Range, Fang Chen had noticed that this place was different.
He had passed through the Sky-Reaching Vine Forest, the swamp, and now the stone forest.
"Just what kind of place was this in the ancient era? Why are there so many checkpoints?" Fang Chen wondered to himself.
The blood-colored Devil Vine had chosen such a place to live. It really was smart.
Ordinary martial artists wouldn't be able to charge in. As for powerful martial artists, even if they didn't die, they would shed a layer of skin. That way, the blood-colored Devil Vine wouldn't be a threat.
However, Fang Chen was very curious as to how the Banxianshu had managed to charge in. What kind of danger had they fallen into?
"What kind of path is inside this stone forest?"
Fang Chen muttered to himself. His Spiritual Perception didn't find anything strange.
In the end, Fang Chen walked into the stone forest.
As soon as he entered the stone forest, countless boulders started moving one after another.
Rumble …
Rumbling noises could be heard coming from the stone forest, as countless eerie auras intertwined with one another and surrounded Fang Chen.
It was only at this moment that Fang Chen realized that this stone forest was actually a natural formation.
"What a treasure land."
Fang Chen couldn't help sighing. Not only did this place have the Sky-Reaching Vine Forest, but it also had the Poison Bloodvine's habitat. There was even a natural formation.
Although Fang Chen didn't know what kind of formation this was, he could tell with a single glance that this stone forest was a natural formation.
What was a natural formation? It was said that on the vast Ancient Sword Continent, there would always be some strange places. Those strange places would undergo the baptism of time, or even the baptism of nature, and gradually become formations.
In other words, natural formations weren't set up by people, but by nature itself.
This kind of formation didn't have any killing power. But that was also the most terrifying thing about natural formations. Their binding power was extremely strong.
Once a martial artist was trapped within, even some peak formation masters wouldn't be able to easily escape.
According to legends, some formation masters could be trapped within a natural formation until they died. There were also some talented formation masters who were able to break through in the face of adversity. In the end, they were able to find a hole in the natural formation and break through it.
Of course, those were just legends.
This was the first time Fang Chen had seen a natural formation in this place.
After Fang Chen entered the stone forest, he triggered the natural formation and made it operate.
"I'm actually trapped in a natural formation." Fang Chen looked around and was a little speechless.
"Natural formations can only be encountered by chance. As a formation grandmaster, this might be an opportunity for you." Ancestor Bronze whispered.
Fang Chen nodded when he heard this. He knew what Ancestor Bronze meant.
He wanted Fang Chen to study the natural formation. Once he studied it, Fang Chen's realm in the formation dao would definitely improve.
Not every Array Master could encounter a natural Array Formation.
"I wonder if the Banxianshu can hold on."
Fang Chen was a little worried about the Banxianshu, but there was no other way.
Once he was trapped in a natural formation, he could only study it carefully. There was no other way.
After thinking for a while, Fang Chen sat cross-legged and began to study the natural formation.
At the same time, the Banxianshu, who was trapped in a dangerous situation, noticed that Fang Chen's aura was getting closer.
"After passing through the swamp, you'll enter the stone forest. A mere natural formation shouldn't be able to trap you." The Banxianshu pondered and said.
Ever since the Undying Bird's blood essence released that powerful aura, the blood-red Demonic Vine had not appeared again. No one knew what it was doing.
In short, the Banxianshu had been waiting for Fang Chen.
The outside world had no idea what was happening in the Devil's Mountain Range.
Naturally, Fang Chen did not know what was happening in the outside world either.
While Fang Chen was going through the Devil's Mountain Range, an extremely arrogant voice spread throughout the entire Bloody Battle Space.
It was Zhu Hai, the expert who ranked ninth on the Hidden Dragon List. His cultivation had reached the late third level of the Spiritual Whirlpool Realm. He was only one step away from the peak third level of the Spiritual Whirlpool Realm.
Such a genius expert was actually taunting Fang Chen.
"Where is Fang Chen? Get out here and die."
These were Zhu Hai's original words. His words were filled with anger.
Zhu Hai's arrogant words instantly spread throughout the entire Bloody Battle Space.
Countless geniuses were shocked. How did Fang Chen offend Zhu Hai to make Zhu Hai search for him all over the world?
At the same time, there were also some geniuses who were worried for Fang Chen. Offending Zhu Hai would definitely not end well.
The top ten experts on the Hidden Dragon List were all heaven-defying monsters. No one could offend them.
Of course, at the same time that Zhu Hai said that he wanted to kill Fang Chen, another voice also set off shocking waves in the Bloody Battle Space.
Luo Zhongtian, who ranked fifth on the Hidden Dragon List, was an existence that was countless times stronger than Zhu Hai.
He had also openly said that he wanted Fang Chen to get out of here and die.
If Zhu Hai's words could only shock the various geniuses, then Luo Zhongtian's words completely shocked them.
At the same time, many geniuses were also inquiring about Fang Chen's name.
Who was this Fang Chen? Why did both Luo Zhongtian and Zhu Hai want to kill him?
"Have you heard? Zhu Hai and Luo Zhongtian are both looking for the same person."
"Of course I've heard. The entire Bloody Battle Space is talking about this. It's said that his name is Fang Chen."
"Has Luo Zhongtian finally started looking for Fang Chen?"
"Do you know what's going on?" A warrior asked hurriedly.
