The Meng and Wu families were the first to enter the dark forest, exploring inside bit by bit very carefully.

Meng Hao had witnessed the power of the six-armed giant ape and guessed that this dark forest was the territory of the six-armed giant ape, so he did not dare to be careless.

The warriors from the Min family and the City Lord's Mansion were behind, and there was a long distance between the two teams.

Moreover, the dark forest is extremely dark. You can barely see with the help of lighting tools, but the effect is not great. Most of the light is swallowed up by the darkness.

"Brother Hongtao, I remember that the leader of your Min family is a Divine Martial Realm warrior named Min Zhan. Why don't I see him?"

The leader of the City Lord's Mansion is a very young warrior named Long Quanya, who is a warrior who has reached the perfection of the True Martial Realm.

He also has another identity, he is the distant cousin of the City Lord's Mansion.

The wooden plaque that Meng Hao obtained from Min Zhan was only owned by the three major families in Qingyun Town, and naturally the City Lord's Mansion did not have it.

Therefore, although the average strength of the warriors in the City Lord's Mansion is higher than that of the three major families, the top combat power is not good enough.

The most powerful warriors can only display the full power of the True Martial Realm in this ancient tomb space.

"Haha, Brother Min Zhan has other tasks to do, so he's naturally not here." Min Hongtao smiled awkwardly.

"I see." Long Quanya nodded.

Min Hongtao glanced at the crowd behind him, and then asked: "Brother Quan Ya, I remember that your City Lord's Mansion has the most warriors entering the ancient tomb space, about sixty people, why are there less than thirty people here?"

Long Quan Ya laughed dryly, "They entered from the other end of the Dark Forest."

Min Hongtao nodded, "I see."

...

The Meng and Wu families continued to move deeper, and everyone was very cautious, making the already silent dark forest even more terrifying.

So many years have passed. The last time the ancient tomb space was opened, the three major families in Qingyun Town suffered heavy losses.

According to the stories told by the elders of the family, the horrors of the past are still vivid in their minds.

At this moment, the scent of a young girl's body wafted into my nose.

Meng Hao glanced sideways and saw that it was the little girl Wu Ying'er who was approaching him.

Wu Ying'er's skin is as white as snow, crystal clear like mutton-fat jade, and exudes a charming luster.

She is tall and slender, and her bright yellow warrior outfit makes her look heroic yet lively and sweet.

The two arms touched each other and felt very soft. Even though Meng Hao was no longer a virgin, his heart was still filled with excitement.

Meng Hao teased, "What? Aren't you afraid of the dark?"

Wu Ying'er rolled her eyes, "Go away, let me talk to you about business."

"You say." Meng Hao said without hesitation.

"We are a big family, so if we find treasures in this dark forest, we will get the lion's share. Do you have any objection to that?"

Wu Ying'er tilted her little face up and spoke in a very playful tone.

Even though she has a slender figure, she is still half a head shorter than Meng Hao.

Meng Hao touched his chin when he heard this.

"Distribution according to work, according to ability."

"Tsk, you're so stingy. Then let's have a competition to see who gets more!"

Wu Ying'er curled her lips and returned to the Wu family's team.

Soon, as the two teams went deeper, the originally pitch-black forest gradually became glowing.

"Is this... a firefly?"

Wu Ying'er's girlish heart was overwhelmed, so she reached out to do it.

Meng Hao was not aware of what was going on, so he took a step forward and immediately grabbed Wu Ying'er's wrist.

"What are you doing? You're acting like a hooligan!" Wu Ying'er scolded.

The tribesmen behind the two men burst into laughter.

It is well known in the city that Meng Hao and Wu Ying'er were engaged when they were children. When people see them interacting, it feels like they are watching a young couple flirting with each other.

"You...what are you doing?" Wu Ying'er's pretty face flushed.

"Just to be on the safe side, the fireflies that can survive in this dark forest are probably not as simple as they seem." Meng Hao said seriously.

"ah!!"

Just then, a scream was heard.

It was in the Wu family camp that a young woman from the Wu family, who was also full of girlishness, caught a firefly, and then her whole body caught fire.

In just a few breaths, before anyone could react, the young woman turned into a pile of ashes in an instant.

It was blown away by a gust of evil wind.

"Roar!" "Hiss!"

"not good!"

The scream of the young woman from the Wu family broke the tranquility in the dark forest.

The originally silent dark forest was followed by a scream from the young woman from the Wu family before she turned into ashes, and suddenly there were roars of monsters all around.

"ah!"

Suddenly, a male warrior screamed in the crowd.

When everyone heard the sound and looked, they saw that the male warrior's skin was dark green with ghost fire burning on the surface, which was extremely terrifying.

"It's the Nether Snake!"

I don't know who shouted.

Soon after, everyone found a snake-like monster on the ground. It was pitch black all over, with faint green light emitting from the gaps between its scales.

The Nether Snake is a second-level monster that likes to live in groups. It is less than half a meter long, has solid scales, and is poisonous. It uses its fangs as blades and its main method of attack is poison.

If the attacked person is not strong enough, his whole body will be burned with the eternal ghost fire of the underworld in a moment.

Meng Hao was quick-witted and agile. Seeing that the Netherworld Snake was about to attack its next target, he immediately took out the Heavenly Sword and cut the Netherworld Snake in the seven inches with one sword, killing it with one blow.

However, the Hell Snake is a rare species of snake that lives in groups.

There was not just one Netherworld Snake here. In a flash, sixty or seventy Netherworld Snakes jumped out from the grass and stabbed straight into the crowd.

"Fight! Don't lose your composure! Otherwise you will attract more monsters!"

Wu Ying'er reacted very quickly and immediately gave instructions to the crowd loudly.

Wu Ying'er's words seemed to have magic, and the originally chaotic crowd immediately became orderly.

However, the weakest Nether Serpents are of the second rank, first grade, which is equivalent to the first level of the Divine Martial Realm for human warriors.

The powerful ones even have the cultivation level of the second stage and third grade, which is equivalent to the third level of the Divine Martial Realm for human warriors.

Among those present, apart from Meng Hao who had real strength comparable to the middle stage of Divine Martial Realm, Meng Yunyang was only at the actual first level of Divine Martial Realm.

As for Wu Ying'er, she should also have a wooden token and maintain the Divine Martial Realm cultivation, but her realm will never exceed the third level of the Divine Martial Realm.

For a while, the sounds of fighting were heard one after another.

The enemy was in the light while we were in the dark. The Nether Snakes moved in strange ways, and their pitch-black scales blended into the night. It was obvious that they were no match for these Nether Snakes.

In a flash, many warriors were burning with ghost fire that could not be easily extinguished, and turned into ashes in an instant.

Meng Hao relied on the Phantom Step to shuttle through the crowd, constantly shooting down and killing the attacking Nether Snakes.

In an instant, he killed more than thirty Nether Snakes alone and saved many warriors.

But there are too many Nether Snakes.

A netherworld snake, about ten feet long, suddenly jumped out from the bushes and went straight behind Wu Ying'er.

"Be careful! It's the Nether Snake King!"

Meng Hao shouted softly, then performed Phantom Step and went forward.
