C1078 Monster Nest

"What the hell is this place? What kind of danger is there? The air here is filled with evil. It scares me."

Zhou Yan's expression turned serious.

"It seems that this should be the lair of those monsters. I need to leave this place as soon as possible. I can't stay here for too long, or else once those monsters appear, I won't be their match at all."

Zhou Yan thought to himself, then prepared to leave. He did not dare to stay here any longer.

Just as he was about to take another step forward, Zhou Yan suddenly heard a miserable scream. The voice was extremely miserable, as if a knife had just cut into his eardrums, causing his heart to tremble.

"Hmm? A monster is screaming. Could it be that there are other demonic beasts or humans in this place? I want to go in and take a look!"

Zhou Yan thought in his heart as he immediately ran towards the source of the scream. However, when he arrived at the place where the scream came from, he saw an unforgettable scene.

It was the corpse of a monster.

It was huge, completely black, covered in scales, and had three huge tentacles on its back. It was about a hundred meters long, and there were three bloody teeth on its abdomen. There was even blood dripping from its mouth, making it look extremely terrifying.

It was wearing a golden armor, and there were many ancient patterns engraved on the armor. These patterns looked very noble, and they gave off a strong pressure that made people couldn't help but feel respect.

This was a golden dragon. This golden dragon's body contained a tyrannical dragon Qi, and the bloodline of the Dragon Clan flowed in its body. It was one of the most powerful races in the Dragon Clan.

Beside the golden dragon's corpse, there were a few humans lying on the ground, and they had all fainted.

They were all covered in wounds, and their bodies were covered in blood.

Zhou Yan walked over and helped them awake. He asked, "Everyone, may I ask who you are? How were you captured by these monsters?"

After the few humans woke up, they all told Zhou Yan.

Hearing Zhou Yan's question, one of the men said: "I am the Duke of the Heavenly Cloud Empire. I was ordered to search for treasures here, but I didn't expect that such a thing would happen. We were surrounded by these monsters, and we were about to die. Fortunately, we were saved by this lord!"

"So that's how it is." Zhou Yan nodded, and then asked: "Then do you know the origin of this place?"

A few humans shook their heads and said, "I don't know, but this golden dragon seemed to have its throat bitten off by something and died."

Hearing these words, Zhou Yan's pupils suddenly contracted.

"Are you sure that the neck of the monster was bitten off by something?" Zhou Yan asked with a frown.

The man nodded and said: "We can prove it."

Zhou Yan began to worry in his heart.

"If that's the case, why don't you hurry up and leave? Do you want to die here?"

Zhou Yan shouted.

Hearing Zhou Yan's words, the humans quickly got up and ran around.

They knew that Zhou Yan was right.

However, the monsters did not chase after them. Instead, they simply stood guard nearby, waiting for the food to arrive.

Zhou Yan's face became more and more gloomy.

"It seems that these monsters will not let this matter rest!"

Zhou Yan thought to himself.

After the few of them escaped, Zhou Yan began to observe the place carefully. However, he found that there was nothing else in this place except for the magma.

"It seems that I have to leave this place, but those monsters will definitely not give up! These monsters are really too cunning. They actually know how to hide their tracks, it's simply too difficult for me to find them!"

Zhou Yan frowned.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in his mind.

The figure's appearance was very similar to the monster that he had encountered before. In fact, it was even much larger than the monster. On its body, it was also wearing a black robe. On the black robe, there were also countless demonic runes engraved on it.

"Could it be that these monsters are related to that guy?" Zhou Yan muttered.

Zhou Yan was a little worried in his heart. He knew that if those monsters were related to that monster, then this matter would be troublesome.

However, Zhou Yan did not want to retreat easily. He wanted to continue exploring this place.

Zhou Yan stood up and looked around.

"Huh? " He suddenly noticed a plant floating over from afar. This plant was very strange. Not only were the flowers covered with thorns, but there were also purple fruits growing on it. The fruits were very large and emitted powerful fluctuations.

"This is... the Heavenly Yuan Fruit?" Zhou Yan's eyes were filled with shock.

When Zhou Yan was on Earth, he had read a book about the Heavenly Yuan Fruit, which was the main ingredient for refining immortal pills. Moreover, the amount of Heavenly Yuan Fruit required to refine the immortal pill was extremely small. Usually, it would take more than a thousand years for the Heavenly Yuan Fruit to mature.

The value of the Heavenly Yuan Fruit far exceeded that of ordinary Spiritual medicine and ore. Not only could it be used to cultivate martial arts, it could also be used to refine pills, refine weapons, and even make pills.

The Heavenly Yuan Fruit could help cultivators break through bottlenecks, increase the strength of their bodies, increase their cultivation, and even increase their lifespan.

Zhou Yan's face revealed an excited expression. His eyes were fixated on the Heavenly Yuan Fruit on the tree. His eyes were filled with passion.

"The Heavenly Yuan Fruit on this tree should not be ripe yet, right?" Zhou Yan guessed in his heart.

A trace of greed flashed across Zhou Yan's eyes.

If he could obtain a Heavenly Yuan Fruit, then his cultivation would definitely skyrocket.

Thinking of this, his body swayed, and he turned into a wisp of green smoke. He flew over and picked up the Heavenly Yuan Fruit.

The Heavenly Yuan Fruit on top of the plant was about the size of two fists. It was emitting a purple glow and a seductive aura.

"Hahaha, with this Heavenly Yuan Fruit, my strength will increase dramatically."

Zhou Yan's face revealed a wild smile.

He put the Heavenly Yuan Fruit into his storage ring and continued to walk forward. However, at this moment, his body suddenly trembled.

Zhou Yan turned around and looked behind him, only to see that the humans had already returned.

"Why did you guys come back?"

Zhou Yan frowned and asked.

A few of the humans trembled in fear and said, "Master, those monsters don't seem to want to eat us."

"What?" Zhou Yan frowned. "Why? Don't the monsters here want to eat you?"

"No," one of the men said. "They are waiting for the things on our bodies."

"Oh? Are they looking for something?"

"They said that a human barged into this place a long time ago and killed a few of the Vicious Beasts. They wanted to find that person and take revenge on him." The man explained.0
