Chapter 396: Carrying Ye Fan to roam the restricted area
"Ye Fan, let's go. There are holy springs and holy fruits in this forbidden area. I'll take you to get some."

"what?"

Everyone was shocked and confused. In their opinion, Ye Fan was going to be taken away by the big boss.

I wanted to ask if they could take me along, but I didn't dare to ask.

Now everyone can see clearly what kind of evil creature Gu Meng is. It is already very good that Gu Meng is unwilling to offer blood sacrifice to ordinary people like them. How could he dare to ask for another opportunity?

Only truly philanthropic people would be held hostage by morality. Gu Meng, who claims to be a philanthropist, is obviously not one of them.

However, Ye Fan being taken away is not necessarily a good thing. Gu Menglian is treacherous to his colleagues, which shows that he is not a good person. He may be nice to Ye Fan with the intention of fattening him up and then refining his holy body into a powerful medicine.

No matter what everyone thought, Ye Fan couldn't refuse Gu Meng's "good intentions" and followed him.

……

"Sir, where exactly is this place? Why can't I see anyone here?"

Ye Fan finally couldn't help but ask. There were too many unanswered questions along the way. Gu Meng was busy before and he didn't want to disturb him. Now he could finally ask.

"The Ancient Forbidden Land is one of the seven forbidden areas for life in the Eastern Wasteland of the Big Dipper. It is located in the southern region of the Eastern Wasteland and was formed after the ancient times. There are wastes and waste slaves inside... In short, it is a forbidden area with very strong taboos. Few people approach it nowadays. We are trapped here and we can only see outsiders after we get out."

"So it's a forbidden area..."

Ye Fan nodded thoughtfully, no wonder.

There are flowers, grass, vines and trees here, and it looks vibrant on the surface, but a closer look reveals something very unusual. In this huge mountain, there is no sound of birds or animals, no signs of ants or insects moving, and it is so quiet that it is almost dead!
Occasionally there was movement in the distance, and upon looking over, it was obviously a strange beast.

Thinking that there must be something forbidden around, perhaps a monster, which caused the local cultivators to not dare to enter, Ye Fan couldn't help but approach Gu Meng.

At least for now, although this big brother has no concept of good and evil and has brazenly killed his teammates on Mars before, he still clearly treats him, the holy body, with preferential treatment.

The head follows the butt. Hao Li thought that maybe they already have a grudge against each other, so Ye Fan must hug Gu Meng's thigh first.

"Sir, this place is so dangerous, why don't we leave early?"

"Don't worry, don't worry. I told you there's something good here. Grab some and try it first."

As Gu Meng spoke, he had already walked to a spring pool.

Several old vines as thick as buckets surrounded an open space, where there was a one-meter square spring pool, gurgling like a divine spring of nectar.

Beside the spring pool, there are more than a dozen small trees more than half a meter high. The leaves are wide and green, shaped like human palms, like several multi-armed little people standing there.

There is a red fruit hanging on the top of each small tree, which looks like a cherry, but is as big as a chicken egg.

"Look, we've arrived. The sacred spring and holy fruit... were so easy to come by. There were no surprises at all, and there were no common guardian spirits... That's right, this isn't wild, these are all private property..."

Gu Meng's voice became smaller and smaller. Ye Fan could still hear the first half of the sentence, but the rest was just Gu Meng's thoughts and he didn't say it out loud.

Ye Fan could smell the rich fruity aroma from a long distance away and almost drooled.

After all, I hadn't eaten for a day and a night, and I was already very hungry.

"It smells so good. I've never seen fruit with such a strong fragrance."

As you get closer, the aroma becomes even more fragrant; even the aroma from a thousand-year-old wine cellar would be suppressed here.

"Sir, is this the holy fruit?"

"Yes, go pick it off." Gu Meng nodded.

A trace of vigilance flashed through Ye Fan's mind, but he thought he was overthinking.

I am just a mortal, and Gu Meng is a cultivator. He can definitely take objects from a distance. The gap between the two is too big. Even if there is a trap, I should not step on it myself, because it has no reference value.

Ye Fan was also good at finding joy in adversity, and Gu Meng didn't kidnap him. Even though he came to a strange world, he did not look sad, but faced it with an optimistic attitude.

Ye Fan picked a bright red fruit and held it in his hand. It looked very tempting and crystal clear, as if it was carved from red jade.

"Don't worry, although they look bright, they are not poisonous. You can eat them even if you don't practice cultivation. After you finish eating, pick a few more and give me a few to try."

Ye Fan nodded, took a light bite, and his expression instantly became like Teacher He’s after eating. He wanted to say, “Wow, that’s amazing!”
They were really delicious. Later, he heard Gu Meng picked a few more. In addition to giving them to Gu Meng, he also wanted to leave a few for Pangbo. Of course, he had to ask Gu Meng's opinion first.

After all, in Ye Fan's opinion, this fruit was found by Gu Meng.

"I don't want much of the fruit here. You can do with the rest as you like."

There are a total of more than a dozen jade-like small trees growing near the spring here, each with fruits, more than a dozen in total.

Ye Fan already knew that this was a rare spiritual object, and wanted to politely refuse it from Gu Meng, saying that he couldn't be too greedy, but Gu Meng stopped him:
"If I ask you to accept it, then accept it. I think this item is meant for you."

Ye Fan was touched. Gu Meng was so generous and upright.

Well, he should thank him. In fact, Gu Meng was able to pass through without any obstacles thanks to him.

After receiving the benefits, Gu Meng went back and led everyone out.

There is no setting here that allows one to fly in the clouds and mist but not carry a mortal body. Gu Meng summoned out a five-colored cloud like light smoke and packed up everyone and took them away.

To be honest, not only do these ordinary people feel uncomfortable staying here, Gu Meng is also a little nervous, worried that some great emperor's holy body will jump out.

If I remember correctly, the red-haired monster, whose mind has evaporated in his old age, will jump out and pound the bronze coffin of the Three Generations. It's better to avoid that kind of crazy scene.

At least the main body should stay away. If Guimi or other big guys like Gu Meng have a way to rescue him, or just want to take advantage of the red-haired monster's madness to make money, that's their own business.

He is still in his developmental stage, so he won't participate in such high-end games for the time being.

Wait until he becomes a big boss.

Gu Meng was confident that he could still rise in this world after obtaining the Taoist scriptures.

His skill points have not been used yet. Speaking of which, Ye Fan later learned the fragments of the Emperor's Scriptures of various realms, and finally nurtured the Hundred Sutras in the furnace and melted all the Dao into one. He also has similar operations on his side.

The skill points of Zhuan Tian can be completed after obtaining the basic part of the Taoist scriptures, or even deduced to be more powerful, or other scriptures can be used as fusion materials to summon (cross out) to create more powerful scriptures.

The scriptures looted from the bronze coffin before can also be used as materials. Although the scriptures themselves cannot be used for direct cultivation, their quality as materials is very high. This is because Gu Meng only looked at the periphery and did not open the small bronze coffin inside.

The initial chapter of the Taoist Scripture is quite popular in Beidou. Gu Meng plans to find a way to obtain it so that he can directly add points.

Back then, Zongwu Gu Meng used the Exorcist Sword Skill that only had one move, Can Yi Qi, to add points, and completed it to a level that was more convenient than the genuine Sunflower. I hope he can do it here. But of course, all this requires a lot of skill points. Fortunately, he has a lot of tasks in the world of Shrouding the Sky. Although now he only has 1 point from opening the system, 3 points from completing the task of beating Ye Fan, and 3 points from coming to Beidou, it seems that it may not be enough.

But in fact, the side quests that Gu Meng can see in "Zhetian" are numerous, and many of them are not hidden, and the conditions are clear.

There are many more panel items than in other worlds, so you don’t have to worry about not having enough skill points.

In fact, there are many realms. After all, it is a huge work with a vast worldview. The four realms of the Wheel of Sea include opening up the Sea of ​​Bitterness - cultivating the Fountain of Life - building the Divine Bridge - reaching the other shore (not that other shore, but the other shore of the sea of ​​suffering of the human body).

If you want to have a solid foundation in the first few realms, you have to spend extra resources like the Holy Body. It’s not much. 3 points in the early, middle and late stages of each small realm is not too much, that’s 12 points.

There are more small realms in the next few realms. The five internal organs of the Dao Palace cultivate the five gods, the four poles cultivate the four limbs, and then there are nine transformations when you transform into a dragon.

The six Xiantai secret realms seem to be three less than the Hualong realm, but each one is the ninth heaven, which is actually fifty-four realms.

The quasi-emperor also has the ninth heaven. After becoming an emperor, use skill points to add x lives and it will take nine lives to become an immortal in the mortal world.

This world of trilogy is integrated together. Before becoming an immortal, it is relatively basic. You should save on skill points if you can. Only by spending more can you lay an invincible foundation. After becoming an immortal, your upgrade to the sacrificial way will become incredibly fast. Otherwise, it is easy to get stuck at the Immortal King level for hundreds of times and not be able to upgrade.

It can be called a long march.

If it was the Doupo Gu Meng who saw this strict setup, he might have given up on playing badly and just added a few points symbolically to become a fairy or a quasi-emperor, which would be enough, and wait for other high-energy Gu Meng to lead him.

But Zhatian Gu Meng still has ambition.

Either don't do it, or do your best.

Since there must be an ultimate concept boss Gu Meng to lead all the Gu Mengs in the world, why can't that Gu Meng be me?
In order to achieve this goal, the Gu Meng Projector sold along the way was just a necessary sacrifice.

Well, in fact, Zhatian Gu Meng’s confidence mainly comes from his amazing talent.

The panels of each Gu Meng are similar, but there are also more anomalies. For example, the panel of Zongwu Gu Meng integrated the heavenly book data of the martial arts game world before it was collapsed and merged with his physical body.

The abnormality on Zhatian Gu Meng's panel is that the task bar is very large.

The reward targets are clear, so he is confident. Zhatian Gu Meng knows clearly that his skill points may be the Gu Meng with the most skill points, except for the Gu Meng who has the ability to increase skill points infinitely, which only a few of the Gu Mengs who have passed the level have.

More than Gu Meng, the Supreme Master of the World, because he has enough skill points, so his talent is stronger than his neighbor, so he is not afraid of recharging and upgrading.

Cricket has nine consecutive levels, nesting dolls again and again, and the skill points counted from the beginning, middle and end will not exceed three digits, can be gathered!

Most of these marked tasks are now in the Beidou star field, which is highly consistent with Ye Fan’s action trajectory. This is why Gu Meng said that only Beidou is his way forward.

On Earth, even for him, it is the Dharma Ending Age, and this is the reason.

Including the collection of the holy fruit and spring in the ancient forbidden land, which is also a branch quest, rewarding 3 skill points. Gu Meng still has a lot of things to do next.

……

With Gu Meng leading the team, there were naturally no attacks from wild beasts on the way, which led to another loss of Ye Fan's team. If those wild beasts dared to come, they would probably be attacked by Gu Meng instead.

After flying over a low mountain again, everyone looked at a high peak in the distance. The buildings there became clearer and clearer. They were huge in scale, with palaces connected together, like a palace in the sky fallen on earth.

"Finally it came out. It always gave me an ominous feeling."

"After all, the master said that it is an ancient forbidden land, so it's normal."

"There should be someone here."

"Wait a minute, why do I feel hot..."

Suddenly, a female classmate said this to another female classmate next to her somewhat embarrassedly.

"I feel the same way."

At this moment, everyone noticed each other's abnormality. Their skin was terribly red, as if it was about to bleed. Everyone felt extremely hot, as if there was a fire burning inside their body.

This was not caused by the hot weather at all, but a physical problem. Everyone felt more and more burning pain in their skin, as if they were being steamed in an oven.

"I...can't stand it...it's so uncomfortable!"

A female student squatted on the ground in agony, shouting, "It hurts so much, it feels like my flesh and blood is drying up..."

She couldn't control herself, tears flowed down her face, she fell to the ground, tossing and turning.

Then the second and third students couldn't bear it anymore. Their bodies turned red with blood oozing out of their skin. They fell to the ground and rolled in pain.

"What the hell is going on? What happened?!"

Everyone realized the seriousness of the matter. At this moment, no one could stand. Almost all of them fell to the ground, roaring in pain. Their flesh and blood seemed to be being peeled off, and their whole bodies hurt like knives.

"Ah..." Finally someone couldn't bear it anymore and started yelling, rolling around, leaving a trail of blood on the ground.

"I don't want to die..." someone screamed in horror.

This was a sudden disaster. No one knew why it happened. They didn't know their own condition at all. They just felt like they were being tortured and their bodies were slowly being dismembered.

"Let me die... I feel so uncomfortable..."

Struggling, crying, rolling, and shouting, many people were close to despair. The loud roars and severe pain gradually blurred their consciousness.

"It's the Master. The Master is finally going to sacrifice us with blood!"

"We really have become his spellcasting material. I knew it, I knew it!"

At this time, only Gu Meng was watching everything indifferently. It had nothing to do with him. This was a natural change after leaving the forbidden area. Gu Meng had a clear conscience.

In fact, Gu Meng was definitely indebted to these people, otherwise there wouldn't be only two people dead now - Liu Yunzhi and his younger brother, but Gu Meng would not have used his own elixirs to prevent their aging.

These people traveled together for the whole journey, but there were very few who were worth seeing. The few that were worth seeing were decent enough. If I have the chance to see them again in the future... I'll talk about it later.

In the end, everyone's body was surrounded by a layer of blood, as if there was a blood-colored flame burning.

With violent struggles and loud roars of pain, the mountain area is no longer peaceful and all the nearby birds and beasts are frightened and flee away.
