Chapter 106: Crossing the River is Difficult

After learning about the existence of the Demon Source, Zhao Xuan felt that he couldn't go on any longer.

In the past, it would have been absolutely beneficial to the Northern Alliance to continue to consume it like this. Whether it is heritage or strength, the Northern Alliance has an absolute advantage. However, with the appearance of the man in black, the situation slowly changed.

For the living monks, it is possible that those men in black will also plant demon seeds and transform them into corpse slaves for their own use. There are also people who can't resist the temptation and gradually transform into people in the demon path.

With the passage of time, whether it is the Southern Alliance or the Northern Alliance who died in battle, as long as the body is snatched by the man in black, it is possible to transform into a corpse slave. In other words, it is very likely that SAARC's strength has not only not weakened with the increase in casualties, but has become stronger and stronger.

Zhao Xuan had already transmitted this conjecture to Li Jiancheng through a token. As for believing it or not, what kind of action will be taken, that is not Zhao Xuan's concern.

Zhao Xuan's main battle, on the one hand, wanted to find out the secret of the man in black, and on the other hand, he also wanted to obtain more divine soul origins. No matter which side it is, as long as there is death, there will be a scattered Divine Soul Origin, and the Soul Suppression Bell can be absorbed and speed up recovery.

After making arrangements, he handed over a large amount of pills to Elder Li Xin, and took Li Hai and Zhu Yang to start patrolling along the shore of Sha HB.

The normal width of the Liusha River is thirty miles, and it is said that this distance is an ordinary liquid-forming realm, and you should be able to see the scene on the opposite side. However, with the eyes and minds of the three of them, they couldn't see anything.

And the mind is going around and around, and if you are not careful, it will disappear inexplicably, as if it has been swallowed by something.

Flying along the foot of the mountain for dozens of miles was like this, which made the three of them constantly sigh.

"Brother Zhao, I finally found you, haha......" In the ears of the three people who were hurrying around, Zhang Kui's voice suddenly sounded, and a figure in the distance was approaching at a rapid pace.

This made the three of them quite surprised, Zhang Kui was only a few miles away, and the three of them didn't even find out.

"Haha...... Don't be surprised, when you understand the magic of the quicksand river, you will know why this is so. By the way, Brother Zhao, this is the spirit grass that was promised to you, don't be surprised! Zhang Kui guessed as soon as he saw the expressions of the three of them. Obviously, this is also often the case.

"The spirit herb is originally to refine the Pure Demon Pill for your sect, presumably someone in your sect is already able to do it, so why should I do it! By the way, Brother Zhang came just in time, and he can introduce us to the situation of this quicksand river. ”

Zhang Kui wanted to say that apart from Yang Kang, there was really no one in the Heluo Sect who could refine the Pure Demon Pill. And if Yang Kang wants to refine it, he will have to cultivate it for more than a month.

This time, I originally wanted Zhao Xuan to divide half of it after refining it, but Zhao Xuan took it with him, and Zhang Kui was a little embarrassed. Fortunately, the disciple of room No. 2 is in good condition after Zhao Xuan's recuperation, and it will be okay to wait for a month.

"This quicksand river was originally the inland river of my Heluo Empire. If it weren't for the assistance of traitors, SAARC would have suffered heavy casualties when it crossed the river. ”

Zhang Kui pointed to the quicksand river and sighed with emotion.

The Liusha River is only one of the largest tributaries of the Luo River, with its source Luo River to the west and the sea to the east. It has the nature of both the freshwater of the Luo River and the saltwater of the sea, but there is not the slightest aura leaking out of it.

If there is no aura leakage, it does not mean that there is no aura in the quicksand river. On the contrary, in the middle ten miles or so, from the mouth of the Luohe River in the west to the mouth of the sea in the east, there is an amazing aura. Those auras never escaped outward, surrounded by a natural magic circle.

The middle ten miles, known as the Ten Mile Dead Domain, is also the most dangerous place in the Liusha River.

The natural magic circle, about ten miles wide, permeated above the surface of the water I don't know how high, and the tens of thousands of meters that a star realm can reach are still in the magic circle.

Any monk who tried to pass through directly, regardless of his cultivation, would suffer a catastrophe of annihilation, and his bones would be gone. Even in the later stage of the Star Realm and even the power of the Great Perfection, there is death and no life.

"So horrible?" Zhao Xuan couldn't help frowning, this was too incredible.

"Yes! It's terrifying! However, this is relatively calm compared to the Luo River. ”

Without waiting for Zhao Xuan to ask again, Zhang Kui explained why the two sides of the strait can pass now.

I don't know when it began, and eight anomalies appeared in the quicksand river from west to east. These eight places actually lost the shroud of the magic circle, showing one passage after another. The passage, although still very dangerous, is much less dangerous than before.

It was in these eight places that the Heluo Sect on the north bank spent hundreds of years of time and effort to finally build eight passages that could accommodate people to pass through. With these eight passages, the Heluo Sect also smoothly unified the scattered south bank and incorporated it into the territory of the Heluo Empire.

"It's really not easy to build eight passages on the quicksand river!" Zhao Xuan didn't need to ask carefully to know, the resources and energy required were definitely beyond imagination.

"Haha...... Everywhere, we are just barely staying afloat with the help of loopholes. Today, there are only two left. Longteng Sect was able to establish mountain gates on the east and west banks of the Luo River, and even more so to establish the main peak on the Luo River, that was a big means! ”

Listening to Zhang Kui's words, Zhao Xuan remembered that the Dragon Teng Sect was not built on the Luo River.

Zhao Xuan only understood at this moment how strong the Dragon Teng Sect was to be able to establish the central Tenglong Peak on the Luo River.

"It seems that we still have to do it with real knives and guns!" Zhao Xuan was a little depressed, it seems that all decisions can only be determined after the on-site investigation.

"What? Brother Zhao is thinking? ”

Zhao Xuan shook his head helplessly, and said with a wry smile that he was going to secretly cross the river to fight.

"Yes, just as Brother Zhang thought, we are trying to find a way to avoid the eyes and ears of SAARC, and suddenly appeared on the shore of Shahn. It's a pity, but now it seems that if you want to go to the past, you still have to go to those two places! ”

Although Dragon and Tiger Ertang had been here for a few years, they had never asked about the situation of the quicksand river, which made Zhao Xuan speechless. The cultivation of the elders of the two halls is not low, and their combat power is also very high, but this battle command is indeed what it is.

Fighting in a group is not like going heads-up, it is necessary to pay attention to the right time and place. It is necessary to cooperate with each other, otherwise they will fight separately, and it will not be a scattered army, and the combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.

At any time, a plate of loose sand has no combat effectiveness to speak of.

"Brother Zhao, this is absolutely unacceptable! The South Bank is now the enemy's stronghold. If you go deep alone, you will inevitably struggle to move forward, and if you are not careful, you may be wiped out! ”

Zhang Kui's eyes widened, and his face was incredulous.

There are only a few people in the Dragon and Tiger Second Hall plus Zhao Xuan, even if you count the 20,000 soldiers who have been recruited, it is only more than 30,000. If you really go to the other side, it will really be a sheep's mouth.

If the Dragon and Tiger Second Hall is completely annihilated, not to mention that the Heluo Sect has lost a large number of strong reinforcements, I am afraid that it will have to face the wrath of the Dragon Teng Sect next.

That's a big deal!

"I understand! I'm going to have to think about it again, you don't have to worry. ”

Zhao Xuan patted Zhang Kui's shoulder and sighed. It's just that this comfort did not dispel Zhang Kui's worries.

In fact, just as Zhang Kui imagined, the next time he arrived in Changluo City, except for the eighty or ninety thousand troops, the people of Longteng Sect were nowhere to be found.

This incident caused an uproar at the top of the Heluo Sect. It's just that no one dares to speak out, and it is necessary to keep it strictly confidential to prevent the news from leaking. By the time Heluozong learned the news of the Dragon and Tiger Second Hall again, it would be a few years later.

How Zhao Xuan brought people to appear on the other side was a mystery to Heluo Sect. Another big victory is even more of a mystery.

It's just that the current Zhao Xuan is still worried about how to cross the river secretly.

Zhang Kui left, and also talked about the transfer of Heluo Sect. This strengthened Zhao Xuan's determination to cross the river, as long as he crossed the river, he would be able to achieve unexpected results by surprise.

"Boy, let's go home?" Even if other elders call Zhao Xuan an elder, but Li Hai is a strong open-mouthed boy and a closed-mouthed boy, unless he is an outsider, he is more restrained.

"Go back? Waiting for someone to attack you when they are strong? If you want to go back, I will have to see again. Zhao Xuan rolled his eyes and continued to explore along the north shore without looking back.

Along the way, he has been careful to hide his whereabouts, from Changluo City to Shahe City, to the outside of Dongpo City, and finally to the eastern sea. After nearly 20 days of exploration, no third crossing site was found.

The other six that were destroyed would require a lot of resources to be repaired. This is not what Zhao Xuan is worried about, what he really cares about is that there are also a large number of people gathered on the other side. When this side is repaired, the other side will already know.

Zhao Xuan didn't give up, and went back the same way to check it again. As a result, nothing was found, and time was wasted. From Changluo City all the way to the west, until the mouth of the Luohe River, it was already a month later.

Standing at the mouth of the Luo River, staring at the map, silent.

Here, Zhao Xuan had tried repeatedly, and at the very edge, there was no natural magic circle. Some of them are just a big whirlpool, and the aura is extremely violent, and the scene is almost the same as when the soul suppression bell space collapsed.

Zhao Xuan sat on the edge of the whirlpool, and Yuan Ying secretly continued to reach in, inferring and summarizing the information obtained. Every nine hours, the maelstrom weakens about ten meters of space at the edge. This time is very short, only about half an hour.

After a month of observation, a guess was made.

After that, dive into the quicksand river and stop until it reaches the edge of the ten-mile dead field in the middle of the river. Sneaking east along the maelstrom at close range, the Yuan Infant also kept moving.

While corresponding to a month of observation of the maelstrom, I searched for new anomalies.

According to Zhao Xuan's guess, the nine hours between the whirlpool and the weakening should correspond to the nine passages. In other words, in addition to the eight passages that have already been discovered, there should also be a ninth passage!

Moreover, the ninth passage is mobile, appearing every nine hours. According to the marking, this ninth passage is either on the easternmost or westernmost side.

Moving to the place between the first passage and the maelstrom in the east, Zhao Xuan stopped. Let Lehi and Zhu Yang, one go to the first passage, and the other go to the edge of the maelstrom, and observe if there is anything abnormal at any time.

Zhao Xuan sat cross-legged in the water, pinching the time little by little, waiting.
