After carefully observing for a while, Zhang Jing gently fell down from the branch and landed silently on the ground. He walked not far from the wreckage, looked around again, and then walked forward to check.

This is a severely skeletal remains, with many parts of the body beginning to rot and exposing a large number of bones.Some unknown and weird bugs burrowed in and out of the corpse, gnawing at the remaining muscle tissue.

At this time, most of the muscles and internal organs on its body have disappeared, leaving only the skeleton. The head, limbs and tail, perhaps because of the large number of bones, still have some skin and muscle tissue remaining.

Judging from the shape of the skull and the remaining skin tissue attached to it, as well as the thick hooked tail, Zhang Jing can clearly identify the type of the remains, which should be the one he killed before. The kind of monster that can use shadow escape.

Moreover, Zhang Jing visually estimated that the size of the remains in front of him should not be smaller than the one he encountered just now.

In his impression, the monster just now had quite good combat power, and its body shape should be that of a predator. Unexpectedly, it was killed here.

So, what creature killed it?Zhang Jing couldn't help but become more vigilant.It's just that this place is not a place to stay for a long time, so Zhang Jing left here with light steps.

..........................................

The road ahead became increasingly difficult to walk. Zhang Jing noticed that he seemed to have entered an area similar to a swamp, with dense long grass as tall as a person constantly appearing around him, as well as continuous stretches of deep or shallow water.

A large number of aquatic plants grow in this kind of water, and many plants even shade the water.

For explorers, this terrain can be very troublesome and even dangerous.Because the many plants here make the land here look like a flat land with lush plants, but underneath it is actually water, and some of it is actually a swamp.If you are not careful, you may miss the mark and fall into the swamp.

In the swamp, finding a normal passable road is actually a troublesome thing.A better way is to follow the tracks of wild animals.After all, many heavier beasts will inevitably leave footprints when they walk by, and along these footprints, you can probably find a relatively safe path.

However, this will also create some new potential dangers, that is, on this "road", the possibility of encountering wild beasts is also very high, and the wild beasts in this area have a high probability of encountering troublesome species. .

The method Zhang Jing chose was more direct. He used the method of "Earth Evil Forbidden Technique: Floating", and it was like a wisp of smoke, walking straight through the plants as if walking on flat ground...

..........................................

After marching forward for about half an hour, the rain still showed no signs of stopping. On the contrary, it seemed to be getting heavier and heavier, and the sound of rain all around had become one continuous sound.

After walking through the forest for a long time, Zhang Jing decided to stop to replenish water and take a rest. According to his experience in the dirty forest, it is very important to know how to maintain physical strength at all times when exploring such unfamiliar areas. .

He found a giant tree that was hugged by several people. It belonged to a small forest, and the surrounding tree crowns were connected to the city, covering the surrounding area of ​​hundreds of square meters like an umbrella canopy.

Zhang Jing carefully jumped onto the giant tree, found an angle between the main trunk and the main branches that stretched out, and sat down. The large number of tree crowns above his head blocked the rain curtain, allowing water droplets to occasionally drop. A few drops will fall, but it is quite dry.

After sitting down, Zhang Jing took out another piece of camouflage cloth from his backpack. This tactical camouflage cloth with a heat-insulating layer was covered by Zhang Jing, leaving only one face exposed.This was not to keep warm, but to further disguise himself. Especially under the cover of this camouflage cloth, even if the other party had infrared detection capabilities, it would be difficult to see Zhang Jing.

Zhang Jing then stopped on the tree, adjusting his breath while quickly replenishing some water.

About a quarter of an hour later, the rain still showed no sign of stopping. Zhang Jing felt that he was almost rested and considered whether to continue on the road.Suddenly, he narrowed his eyes and looked sideways.

After a while, I saw a large patch of long grass not far from the tree where Zhang Jing was standing shaking. Then, a strong beast that looked like a deer but had a long mane on its back ran through it. Coming out, this strange beast was extremely fast, like a flash of lightning. Zhang Jing noticed that it did not stop at all when running through some swamps, and could actually run directly across the water.

However, at the next moment, a shadow in front of it suddenly shook, and then, a huge figure jumped out from it, blocking it in front of the strange beast, and threw it to the ground with a fierce momentum. The two figures After getting entangled in one place, they rolled a few times, and then they saw that the strange beast was firmly pressed to the ground, and its throat was bitten tightly. After struggling violently for a while, it was still unable to break free, and finally stopped gradually. Movement, but still twitching violently...

Zhang Jing, at this time, had also clearly seen the figure that jumped out. This was a monster that he was not unfamiliar with. It was exactly the kind of monster that he had killed before and could use shadow escape.

The one in front of him looked obviously bigger than the one he killed. It was as majestic and as tall as a bullock. Not only were there several short horn-like bone spurs on both sides of its head, it was much larger than the one he had encountered before. The other end is longer, and its spine has nearly ten short horns of different heights like fish fins.

Obviously, this monster was replenishing its food at this time, as it shook its head violently, further accelerating the death of the alien beast that had become "food".

After a while, the strange beast that was biting its throat had completely lost its movement. Then the monster released its mouth, its eyes looked around with two flaming lights, and it looked around for a while. Then he lowered his head and began to tear up the body of the strange beast on the ground...

At this moment, on the tree dozens of meters away from it, Zhang Jing suddenly felt that the surrounding atmosphere seemed to become a little depressing. This was a very strange feeling, like an old captain who had been on the sea all his life. , that inexplicable nervousness on the eve of the storm.

Zhang Jing immediately raised his vigilance to the highest level, but after observing from left to right, he found nothing unusual.

It may come out of nowhere, but it may not be without cause.Even so, Zhang Jing did not relax at all. Instead, he became increasingly vigilant. He carefully reduced his breathing, heartbeat and all physiological activities to a minimum, just like a hibernating reptile, turning himself into the environment. part of...

This is also a skill he has learned from the fish dragon transformation, which can hide himself well in the environment. In this state, the perception will be affected and the stool will be slower. However, correspondingly, the physiological activities will also be affected. reduced to extremely low levels.

Chapter 185 Tiger Dragon

At this moment, Zhang Jing suddenly discovered that at some point, there seemed to be a faint mist filling the surroundings.

The monster that was eating suddenly stopped biting and suddenly raised its head, paying careful attention to its surroundings.At this moment, the water surface of the swamp with large aquatic plants floating not far away suddenly exploded. Immediately afterwards, a huge creature roared out of the water and rolled over the eating monster at lightning speed. , bit it in his mouth...

Zhang Jing held his breath and concentrated, looking at the scene in front of him through the gaps in the leaves, but he couldn't help but sweat dripping from his back.Being in a different place, he felt that he might not be able to escape this blow...

At this time, the behemoth had stopped in the clearing in the forest, spat the monster in its mouth on the ground, stretched out its claws to hold it down, and then started tearing it apart. Zhang Jing saw that there was actually a kind of cat eating a mouse. visual sense.

And the seemingly ferocious and majestic monster was pinned to the ground at this time. It looked like it was weak and exhausted. It was just twitching. Even its struggle was weak. It was easily held down by one of the front paws of the huge beast. With a casual pull, it was torn apart.The tough outer skin was like cloth under the claws of this behemoth.

Zhang Jing carefully looked at this behemoth, and saw that its body length should be about fifteen to twenty meters in length, and its shoulder height was more than four meters. It was surrounded by clouds and mist, and there were even ice edges condensing on the ground it walked on.

Its body shape is somewhat like a giant lizard, with a long snake-like tail. The tip of the tail has a fin tail unique to aquatic animals, and its ridge also has a dorsal fin that extends from the neck to the tail vertebrae. The dorsal fin Every other section, there is a bone spur as sharp as a spear.

Its head is like a tiger, but it has two long beards, sharp tusks, exposed canine teeth, and a thick mane on its neck, making it look extremely powerful.It has four limbs, two front paws, which look extremely strong and strong, while the two back paws are shorter than its front paws, so that when it walks, it feels like it is high in front and low in back. Zhang Jing noticed , it has four claws on each leg instead of the five claws of ordinary animals.

Different from lizards, its body is not as thin as that of ordinary reptiles, but has strong muscles like mammals such as tigers and leopards. Its upper body looks muscular and beautiful, giving people a sense of beauty. A very explosive feeling.

Its whole body is covered with scales, and its scales, mane, dorsal fin, and tail fin all have colorful patterns. Especially on its forehead, there is a black king pattern similar to that of a tiger, which makes it look majestic and gorgeous.

Obviously, the strength of this thing must be so strong that Zhang Jing felt like breaking into a cold sweat after seeing it. According to his concentration and willpower, he even had the illusion of standing up and running away with great urgency!For Zhang Jing at this time, this was definitely not normal. Fortunately, with his cultivation and the timely chill that came from the purple jade pendant hanging on his chest, he was still able to stabilize his mind and not be affected.

Zhang Jing is almost certain that there must be some kind of strange force field around this giant beast, which is enough to affect the emotions of others and make them fearful.It's no wonder that the monster pinned under its feet didn't even seem to be able to struggle.

This is...a tiger dragon?

Zhang Jing's thoughts were racing, and a flash of lightning seemed to flash in his mind. He suddenly remembered the description of a certain monster he had seen in a Dharma collection. If it was really this thing, then it was not something he could handle at this time.

Tiger dragons are a type of dragon. Although dragon creatures are not known for their size, in terms of strength, there is no fuel-efficient lamp. Adult dragons are almost equivalent to third-level human monks or above.The tiger dragon is a powerful subspecies among the dragons and feeds on ferocious beasts.

Zhang Jing's major skill is "Fish and Dragon Transformation", so he is no stranger to the habits of dragons. After realizing that the thing in front of him might be a tiger dragon, he immediately realized the problem, and then began to use his own skills Take it to the extreme and completely lurk your own life form...

It has to be said that the "Fish-Dragon Transformation" method is unique in terms of hiding Qi and hiding form. As the saying goes, "A dragon can be big or small, it can rise or hide, it can stir up clouds and spit out mist when it is big, and it can be small when it is small." If it is hidden, it hides its form; if it rises, it soars among the universe; if it is hidden, it lurks within the waves..."

This was not because Zhang Jing was overly cautious, but because Zhang Jing remembered that in the records he had read, it was mentioned that the tiger dragon was surrounded by clouds and mist, and this kind of cloud and mist was not an ordinary mist, but had many magical effects.

In Zhang Jing's understanding, the clouds and mist around the tiger dragon should be regarded as existences in some kind of realm.Among the many wonderful uses of that cloud, one of them is extended perception.Although the Fa Zang didn't say much clearly about this at that time, it did not prevent Zhang Jing from guessing that in this kind of cloud and mist, the tiger dragon's perception ability would be greatly improved.After all, even he himself could feel the feeling of being at home in the continuous rain, let alone a real dragon.

At this moment, Zhang Jing didn't even dare to use the real fire pupils to peep in case he was noticed by the sharp tiger dragon.

Then they saw the tiger dragon lowering its head and tearing at the monster, gnawing at the fat parts of the chest, abdomen and internal organs muscles. Soon, it ate up all the muscles in those areas and threw the remaining parts aside.

The other strange beast that had been hunted by the monster before, the tiger dragon, didn't even look at it and just let it lie aside.

Apparently, this guy is very picky about his food.At this point, Zhang Jing also understood how the corpse he found in the forest was caused.

Suddenly, the tiger dragon's nose was flapping. It was obvious that it had discovered something. It was turning its huge head, looking around, and soon, it looked in the direction of Zhang Jing!

Zhang Jing's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he subconsciously became vigilant.He tried his best to calm down his emotions, cut off all breath, and became as still as a dormant winter insect.

The tiger dragon slowly walked towards Zhang Jing's direction, getting closer and closer step by step. At the same time, Zhang Jing's heart shrank tighter and tighter. Several plans flashed through his mind like a revolving door, but none of them Not very sure...

Suddenly, the tiger dragon began to accelerate violently, instantly crossing the tree trunk where Zhang Jing was, and rushed further back. After rushing out for nearly a hundred meters, it suddenly jumped into a nearby bush. Immediately, as if being hit by a cannonball, various plant stems flew around. At the same time, a black figure emerged from it, and suddenly let out a series of "Chi, Chi, Chi, Chi..." the sound of!

But it was useless. The black figure was pushed to the ground by the tiger dragon in an instant. It was a monster with bone spurs on its back. The tiger dragon revealed two long white canine teeth and used force. He bit into the body of the monster beneath him and tore its body apart with a flick of his head.

At this time, Zhang Jing's eyes were on the place where the tiger dragon passed by before. There were about twenty dark black spikes stuck in the surrounding ground and trees. The hair had a metallic luster. It was the monster that was escaping. It was sprayed out during a crazy counterattack.

Standing where Zhang Jing was, due to the angle, he couldn't see clearly what the monster looked like. Of course, he didn't have such great curiosity.

He just held his breath and concentrated as much as possible, suppressed all his physiological reactions, and waited patiently for the tiger dragon to leave after its meal.

After about another 10 minutes, the tiger dragon finally walked to the water's edge and submerged into the depths of the swamp, and then disappeared.

Zhang Jing waited until the surrounding clouds and fog completely dissipated, but still did not come out immediately. Instead, he waited for a while, and then carefully released the dormant state. He jumped off the branch and carefully came to the first place that had just been attacked by the tiger dragon. Next to the remains of a monster, two phantoms emerged from the remains and from the corpse of the alien beast that was first preyed on by the monster, and threw themselves into his chest.

After that, Zhang Jing came to the remains of the spiky monster nearly a hundred meters away, and as expected, he saw another phantom... In addition, he squatted down next to the remains of the last monster and looked at it. It was found that this monster was slightly smaller than the previous monster, with short but strong limbs. It was obvious that it was good at sneaking and climbing. Judging from the still well-preserved head, it could be seen that its fangs were also of a carnivorous type.

Considering the tiger dragon entrenched in the swamp, Zhang Jing decided to take a detour...

....................................

After spending more than two hours, Zhang Jing finally bypassed this swamp area.During this period, he stopped and used divination to adjust his position twice.

It has to be said that in this special environment, without smooth roads and effective instruments for measuring orientation, it is easy to deviate from the correct direction.Therefore, every other section of the road, you need to reposition, otherwise it is very likely to go in the opposite direction.

At this time, the rain in the sky was gradually ending, but the humidity in the jungle was heavier.

After walking for a while, Zhang Jing suddenly stopped, carefully leaned down and hid his body in the tall grass beside him.

The reason is simple, there is fog around...

Zhang Jing's first reaction was to subconsciously think of the tiger dragon just now.However, after lurking for a while, the surrounding fog did not diminish at all.

After carefully observing his surroundings again, Zhang Jing carefully walked out of his hiding place and silently climbed up a tall tree nearby.

After carefully observing the surrounding situation again, he quickly flew sideways, trying to bypass this area.

However, what surprised him was that the fog still didn't lift until he had walked a long way.

Chapter 186 Human Face Fruit

And, he also discovered another fact.That is, as long as he retreats a little further, he can exit the fog-covered area, as if there is a wall of fog blocking his way forward.Further ahead, Zhang Jing found that the fog was thickening at a speed visible to the naked eye. A dozen steps away there was already a thick fog that could not be broken. He had never seen this kind of sight before.

After walking for a while, Zhang Jing found a huge stone tablet in an open space in the forest. One corner of the stone tablet was partially broken by some force and scattered on the ground.

In the middle of the stone tablet, there are several marks of blows that penetrated it. After a long history, vines have grown even in the damage.

At this time, a line of divination text was written in red liquid on the surface of this damaged stone tablet.

"Those who enter the XX Garden without authorization will die." There are two words in the middle that cannot be seen clearly due to the incompleteness of the stone tablet.

This red liquid looks like blood. Strangely, the scarlet handwriting looks extremely fresh, as if it was written not long ago, especially on the word "death", there is a wisp of blood flowing down...

Zhang Jing stood in front of the stone monument and observed it, then looked at the surrounding situation, frowned, then squatted down on the ground next to the stone monument, picked up a branch and pulled it. Soon, he was on the left side of the stone monument. Traces of the road were found under the layer of rotten leaves not far away.

It was the remnant of a stone road. It could be seen that it had a very long history. Zhang Jing suddenly understood. It seemed that at a certain period, there should have been a road in this woodland, but as time went by, Due to erosion, the road was gradually eaten away by the surrounding vegetation.

Now he can completely confirm that the mist here does not belong to the tiger dragon.However, although the writing on the slate is terrible, you can't just give up without trying.

Zhang Jing tried divination again. After a while, he got vague information. The opportunity of his trip was in the right direction, that is, he was going to enter this area shrouded in fog.

That being the case, always give it a try.Zhang Jing thought for a while and tried to go deeper into the mist...

After walking forward for more than ten steps, the density of the surrounding fog began to rise sharply. At this moment, the key mark on the back of Zhang Jing's hand flickered slightly, and then something strange happened.

Then he saw the mist in front of him gradually dissipating into a passage, which was only big enough for one person to pass through.

Zhang Jing was stunned for a moment, then realized what he was doing, and then carefully stepped into the passage made of clouds and mist.

As he walked in, the passage closed behind him, and Zhang Jing walked forward slowly, always paying attention to the movements around him.

As time passed by, Zhang Jing kept moving forward in the mist. The path was winding and changing directions.In the surrounding mist, Zhang Jing seemed to hear some kind of rustling sound, and sometimes, there was some kind of murmuring call, as if a familiar person was calling him something, but he heard something. Not real.

Zhang Jing was no longer a rookie entering the extraordinary world. At this time, he did not identify the sounds in the mist. He just kept on guard while moving forward. Finally, the exit of the passage appeared in front of him.

After walking out of this passage, the fog immediately closed behind him.Zhang Jing looked around and saw that there was still a large woodland in front of him, with various plants growing densely, and occasionally some abandoned and damaged stone structures and collapsed man-made buildings scattered in between.

These buildings and stone sculptures were originally supposed to be quite exquisite, but for some reason they all collapsed and were damaged. Now most of them can only be vaguely noticed through the occasional exposed parts between the plant cover.

This environment reminded Zhang Jing of the ancient buildings scattered in the rainforest in South America that he had seen in his previous life.

The road was cut off at this point. Zhang Jing looked around carefully, and then he discovered something unusual.

There are a large number of vines growing around here, and these plants cling to the surrounding trees, forming a landscape similar to a rain forest.

These vines are unusually thick, with leaves wider than the palm of your hand. Between the vines, there are huge fruits hanging. Each of these fruits is the size of a human head and looks heavy.

Zhang Jing came closer and discovered that these fruits, which looked like some kind of melon, actually had sleeping anthropomorphic faces on their uneven skins.These faces have their eyes closed, there is no sound of breathing, and they look more like dead faces.And there is no hair like eyebrows or beard at all.

After Zhang Jing used the True Fire Eyes, he could clearly see that these vines were shining with a dark flame as if they were breathing.

Just when Zhang Jing approached a certain fruit with hanging vines, the face on the surface of one of the fruits closest to him suddenly opened its eyes, staring blankly at Zhang Jing.Immediately afterwards, several fruits around him also opened their eyes and stared at Zhang Jing without blinking.

Zhang Jing's expression remained unchanged on the surface, but he was extremely alert in his heart. The long sword in his hand had also been slightly rotated and adjusted to the most convenient angle.

However, when the eyes of these fruits rested on the key mark on the back of Zhang Jing's hand for a moment, they all closed their eyes again. At this time, Zhang Jing still didn't know that the key on the back of his hand , is not only the key to enter this space, it seems that it is also very likely to be the pass here.

With this understanding, Zhang Jing made up his mind and continued to move forward.

Walking in this forest covered with dense vines, each fruit is like a human face. Whenever Zhang Jing approaches, the eyes on the fruit will open and stare at Zhang Jing, matching the surrounding dark light and The silent and desolate ruins are quite eerie.

After walking in the woods for about a quarter of an hour, an unknown song could be heard vaguely in front of me. The song was floating in the wind, gloomy but ethereal and melodious, as if it was one with the sound of the wind.

Zhang Jing continued to walk forward, and there were more and more ruins in front of him. From time to time, he could see some buildings that were probably pillars, pavilions, etc. collapsed to the ground, blending in with the grass and vines.

The ground is no longer as flat as before, and undulating landforms of different sizes have begun to appear. Fortunately, with Zhang Jing's current skill, irregular terrain is not a problem at all. With just a tap on the ground, the whole person can Floating like a feather.

Zhang Jing would stop in front of some collapsed ruins from time to time, tearing apart the plants attached to them, with flames flashing in his eyes. For him, there are two aspects to focus on. One is to see if he can find anything useful. Something, preferably something like Dharma Tibet.

In addition, another thing that makes Zhang Jing curious is, what happened to this ruins to become like this?

It has to be said that Zhang Jing had a vague guess in his mind after his experience in Lishan Cave Sky, and as he continued to advance and explore, subsequent discoveries also confirmed his guess to a certain extent.

Although a long time had passed, he still found traces of being struck by sharp objects in many damaged parts of the stone structure, which also confirmed his guess from the side.

After walking forward for a while, the singing in front became clearer and clearer. Finally, after passing through a large patch of long grass, Zhang Jing came to the top of a hill. In front of him was a large forest of sparse trees. In front of Zhang Jing's eyes, there was a A dream-like scene.

There are a lot of stars dancing in the sky, showing a light purple color, and on the ground, there are all kinds of strange mushrooms of various sizes growing.
