Chapter 7: Strange Space
Erecting the mental shield, Zilong walked forward with a calm face, and as soon as he took a step, a huge pressure rushed towards him, and the attacks of the seven essence elements converged to attack him. With each step, the feeling became even stronger, the scorching heat of fire, the cold of ice, the pressure of earth, the speed of the wind, the corrosion of the dark night essence, and the powerful spiritual attack descended on Zilong's body almost at the same time. Every part of the body is suffering from different pains, complex sensations make Zilong almost unbearable, physical pain makes Zilong Qing sometimes awake and sometimes dizzy, his steps have become extremely heavy, he can't move for a long time, although the target is in front of him, but he can't reach it.
This is an extremely majestic mountain, and it is almost impossible to climb it, and the only way to get rid of it is to get rid of it. Zilong thought that the Yuan Spirit in his body was not made up of seven essences, so far, it had absorbed a variety of essence elements, and every time it saved him at a critical moment, wasn't it the essence element that was lying in front of him?
Since he came here, how can Zilong try him, the shadow killing technique is carried out, and he frantically absorbs the aura around him, Zilong runs the Yuan Spirit throughout his body, and the Yuan Spirit pours out from Zilong's body, and the essence elements explode all at once, and the spirit cloud in the body suddenly has an inexplicable attraction, and the essence elements from the outside world seem to have met a partner, constantly pouring into Zilong's body.
As soon as the essence element entered the body, it rushed to merge with the primordial spirit, and then returned to the spirit cloud together. If it was repeated, the Yuan Spirits in the Spirit Cloud gathered more and more, and the essence elements still did not stop, and the essence elements in those stone walls also swarmed out, flowing into Zilong's body at a rapid pace.
The influx of essence elements seemed to be endless, and there was no sign of stopping after more than ten minutes. The abundant essence came like a tide, Zilong didn't have time to absorb it at all, the remaining essence elements couldn't find an entrance and scurried around in his body, Zilong's body began to become numb, and the various essences seemed to devour every tissue in the body, and the musculoskeletal was being destroyed and atrophied. Suddenly, Zilong's blood surged wildly, and the 'life source liquid' flowed through every tissue, and the damaged tissue immediately returned to its original appearance, and then it was destroyed again, countless cycles, and in a short period of time, Zilong seemed to have experienced countless lives and deaths.
Finally, all the essence elements were absorbed by Zilong's body, and before he knew it, Zilong was sitting cross-legged on the ground, transforming the absorbed essence and fusing it with the Yuan Spirit. Time was passing silently, and I don't know how long it took, but Zilong, who was sweating profusely, finally absorbed the essence. At this time, the spirit cloud in the body, the colorful light is more dazzling, and the Yuan Spirit is also more abundant.
With a sigh of relief, Zilong stood up, and at this time, the surrounding scenery had suddenly opened up, although it was still a little blurry, but it was enough for Zilong.
The two walls are about ten meters apart, and in the middle is a spacious corridor, at the end of the corridor, two stone doors stand majestically there, exuding a ** atmosphere from them, which is far from the weirdness just now, like two extremes. Walking forward a few steps, he stretched out his hand to push open the heavy stone door, Zilong's vigilance reached the extreme, he had not forgotten the difficulties and dangers he had encountered in the library so far.
The door slammed shut behind him, and it was still dark in front of him, without any breath, not even the essence element. The divine sense dispersed in all directions, and all it saw was nothingness, and the shadow mouse seemed to be aware of this strange state, and clinged to Zilong's back.
Suddenly, a burst of birds and flowers came, and a colorful scenery suddenly appeared in front of me, a green valley, there are hundreds of years of green pines and cypresses, and waist-length wild grass dancing with the wind. The warm wind blows, bringing the smell of earth and the fragrance of flowers and plants, refreshing people's hearts and spleens, and suddenly making people feel refreshed and invigorated, as if they can leave all their troubles and disputes behind.
Zilong and Shadow Mouse couldn't help but be infected by this scene, and they absorbed the fresh air unwillingly, and fell on the soft grass to feel the breath of the wind, and the fatigue of their bodies suddenly dissipated, and they were indescribably comfortable.
Relaxing the nerves that had been tense, Zilong got up from the ground and made a gesture to the shadow mouse, and the shadow mouse immediately came to his senses and jumped on his shoulder with a jump.
Zilong moved his footsteps and reached into the valley. Along the way, I haven't encountered any living creatures, only trees and grasses, if it weren't for the lack of unique aura around, Zilong may really be addicted to this, after Zilong's judgment, this seems to be an illusion, but the too beautiful scene and the real touch make people can't tell the truth from the fake.
Thinking of the dean's office he had visited, a thought came to him, could this be a space carved out of the library like that office, and he could imagine how much force it would have taken to carve out such a large space and make it what it is today.
The further you traveled into the valley, the wider it became, and the trees became bigger and bigger, and the lush branches and foliage blocked the way forward and blocked Zilong's sight. Zilong kept looking around, trying to find a new path, and suddenly, Zilong's eyes were attracted by something in the distance, and he hurriedly ran over.
In the sound of the bushes, a path winds like a snake, and a few footprints can be clearly seen on the path, and they are human footprints, and from their shape, there must be at least two people, and apparently they have just been left behind. Zilong looked at those footprints in surprise, and secretly said in his heart, isn't this an illusion, but a real existence? You know, even if it is a real illusion, there is no such thing as footprints, the illusion imitates the real environment, and there will inevitably be negligence in some details, such as the traces left by people when they exist, and it is impossible to imagine that someone will do such an illusion, which is simply beyond Zilong's imagination.
It's just that the tenth floor of the library he entered was obviously the tenth floor, how could he lead to a real world, unless it was a teleportation array, but Zilong, who had several teleportation experiences, could be sure that it was definitely not, so where is this place?
With this doubt in mind, Zilong walked along the path and entered a dense forest, where the footprints became more numerous, and it was obvious that this was an area where people often moved.
Holding up the mental shield in case of emergency, Zilong walked forward cautiously, the forest was not big, and it had reached the end in a short time, the trees were much sparser, and the sunlight sprinkled through the branches and leaves, and suddenly brightened.
Through a few cypress trees of the thickness of the two of them, Zilong saw that not far from the edge of the woods was a tall and steep mountain, and at the bottom of the mountain sat a hut made of wood, and the open space in front of the house was cleaned, there was not a single weed, only some shelves full of fruits and vegetables lined up there. It is surrounded by a fence, no different from an ordinary farm yard.
Seeing this scene, Zilong's heart was even more puzzled, what kind of secret was hidden in this tenth layer, was it just such an ordinary courtyard, or was there some kind of worldly master living in seclusion here. Whether this was an environment or another space, countless questions flashed through Zilong's mind.
"Old fellow, you're finally back, aren't you just so angry?" an old voice came from the wooden house, and then a vigorous figure rushed out of the house. It was an old man with a white beard, although his face was full of wrinkles, but his spirit was so strong that even ordinary young people could not compare, and his ankle-high robe was attached to his thin body, and he suddenly frowned when he fell to the ground, and his sharp eyes swept around.
Suddenly, the old man's gaze fell on the place where Zilong was, and Zilong said secretly: "Oops, it was discovered." ”
Sure enough, I saw that as soon as the old man raised his sleeves, a gray thing came straight to Zilong, the fast naked eye could barely see clearly, on par with the shadow mouse, thanks to Zilong's preparation, he turned over and jumped up from the spot, and couldn't help but get up and run to the other side quickly.
The black thing failed to attack, suddenly stopped in mid-air and flew backwards, the old man caught the thing, put it in the palm of his hand and stroked it gently, Zilong only saw clearly at this time, it was a lightning mouse very similar to the shadow mouse, its speed was only one point slower than the shadow mouse, but it was one of the best in the calculation, but the one in the old man's hand was obviously faster than the usual lightning mouse.
"Where did the rats come from, since they appeared, they didn't dare to show up, when I was a vegetarian? The old man said sternly, exuding the momentum of his whole body, and the surrounding space suddenly seemed to freeze, and the temperature of the air seemed to drop several degrees at once.
As soon as his words fell, the shadow mouse's body began to tremble, and its small eyes almost wanted to erupt with fire, and it took a long time for it to say in that cold voice, "The mouse is very angry. "The shadow mouse has a proud personality, even after following Zilong for many days, it still hasn't changed, and now when he hears someone insulting him, he is naturally angry, but fortunately, he still remembers that his identity is Zilong's shadow, and he didn't rush forward.
When the old man saw that no one paid attention to him after shouting his words, he immediately became angry, waved the sleeves of his robe with both palms, and a powerful energy wave struck with earth-shattering momentum. The energy wave slammed into the trees with an astonishing momentum, and more than a dozen ancient trees that were hugged by several people broke off in a violent ** sound, and Zilong floated into the air from under the trees that were about to fall, his fiery red hair fluttering in the wind.
At first glance, seeing the young man floating in the air, Lai Gu couldn't hide the surprise in his heart, every prohibition set up outside is not so simple, even if it is unraveled by people on the mainland, it must take a lot of effort to untie it, serious injuries are inevitable, not to mention that there will definitely not be more than four people on the continent who can untie it, and if they don't master the method, it is impossible for them to enter easily.
When he detected the stranger's breath just now, he thought that one of those people had appeared, and he didn't show mercy, but who knew that the person who came was such a young person, and it seemed that he was only about twenty years old, and he was able to walk through many obstacles to come here at such a young age, it was really a bit like a fantasy, could it be that someone leaked the secret here.
The first thing that crossed Legu's mind was this thought, he had been in the town for many years, he was almost isolated from the outside world, and he was almost cut off from the organization, and he couldn't tell if it was the organization's problem. He couldn't help but wonder if the appearance of young people represented a big change in the outside world.
"Young man, who are you? This is an ancient forbidden place, no one is allowed to enter, and the old man advises you to go back quickly. Lygu kindly dissuaded.
"Ancient Forbidden Land, that's what I'm looking for, the old man better not stop me, and when I find the answer I want, I'll naturally go out." The corner of Zilong's mouth hooked a smile and said, as soon as he heard that this was the ancient forbidden land, he immediately linked it with Zilong, and couldn't help but think that it seems that there is really something he wants to find here, with such thoughts, Zilong doesn't care what Laigu says, seeing that the target is in front of him, all he wants is to enter the forbidden land.
"Hmph, with me here, no one wants to pass from here, it's a dream to enter the forbidden land, where are you a kid, you are so rampant. Raghu was furious, two flames popping up in his still clear eyes, and his shadow jumping up and down his hands.
"The juniors are also forced to do so, can't the old people be accommodating, I hope to resolve this matter peacefully. "It's not what Zilong wants, but the old man in front of him is obviously very stubborn, which makes him have a headache.
"After so many years, no one has ever dared to talk to me like this, I am not very old, and my tone is not small, let me see if you have that ability. After finishing speaking, Lai Gu stared at Zilong, his whole body ready to go. Suddenly, Laigu's figure disappeared in place, and an afterimage flashed in the air, and in the blink of an eye, Laigu had already arrived in front of Zilong.
Unexpectedly, the old man's movements were so fast, Zilong frowned, quickly propped up the mental shield, and casually condensed into a "Yuan Spirit Blade" to protect his front body.
Laigu's palm slapped suddenly, Zilong sent the "Yuan Spirit Blade" forward, the blade was in front of him, Laigu's body suddenly twisted, and the "Yuan Spirit Blade" passed by his side, and a piece of clothing fell.
Lai Gu snorted disdainfully, and the figure suddenly flashed to the right side of Zilong, and when Zilong turned his body to block the old man, a gray shadow suddenly rushed to the left side of Zilong, where could Zilong at this time take care of left and right. In his frustration, the Shadow Mouse suddenly jumped off his shoulder, and the small figure went straight for the Lightning Mouse. The two rats collided together in an instant, and began to chase each other, the speed was amazingly fast, and they couldn't see the trajectory of their movement at all, Zilong believed in the speed of the shadow rat very much, not to mention that the shadow mouse was different from other shadows, there was no restriction within a hundred meters with the owner, even if it was more than enough to escape. The thought flashed, and Zilong began to concentrate on dealing with the old man.
The old man's speed was indeed ridiculously fast, even if Zilong used the wind step with all his might, he could only barely avoid the old man's attack, and the old man seemed to see the advantage of his speed, and just walked around Zilong's body, giving blows from time to time.
After a long time, Zilong gradually couldn't support it, he suddenly stopped his body there, and Yuan Ling quickly moved up, and countless "Yuan Phantom Thorns" rotated around his body, forming an excellent protective "Yuan Phantom Thorn Wall".
Lai Gu, who suddenly rushed towards Zilong, was stunned, looking at the rapidly rotating protection, but there was no flaw in his entry, even if he had superhuman speed, he couldn't break through that defense, unless he forcibly broke it with strong strength.
Seeing that Laigu suddenly stopped there, Zilong knew that the "Yuan Phantom Piercing Wall" had already had its due effect. As soon as his mind moved, countless Dao Yuan Phantom Thorns flew in the direction of Laigu, flashing with colorful light, overwhelmingly blocking Laigu's way in any direction. Although it was very costly to transform into countless "Yuan Phantom Thorns" with the Yuan Spirit, only such an indiscriminate attack could stop the old man's unparalleled speed.
Lygu's face changed several times when he suddenly saw the attack that blocked all directions, and his only way out at this time was to retreat, but in this way, he was bound to be a hundred meters away from the shadow, and the consequences were not something he could bear.
"There's still a bit of ability. Lai Gu sighed, his palms slowly crossed in the air, a powerful tornado suddenly appeared, and the powerful wind essence element surged wildly inside, for a while the sky and the earth changed color, the blue sky was replaced by a layer of gray, the whistling wind was like a ghost crying wolf, terrifying, one by one the trees were uprooted, sent to the sky, as the tornado was turning, the galloping "Yuan Phantom Thorn" was suddenly stirred inside, turned into shattered energy. Soon after, the wind stopped and the scene was already a mess.
Zilong was stunned by Lai Gu's blow, he didn't expect the old man to have such strength, so it seems that it may not be so easy to enter the forbidden land, so he has to make a Bo. Thinking of this, Zilong let the Shadow Killing Technique frantically move, and the Yuan Spirit was flowing rapidly, and a purple big knife completely formed by the Yuan Spirit was held in his hand.
A gentle murderous aura spread from Zilong's body, and at the same time, Zilong stepped on the wind and rushed towards Laigu.
Zilong's knife slowly slashed down from top to bottom, and in the process of falling, within the dazzling purple light, colorful light loomed, and suddenly skyrocketed, and the essence elements between heaven and earth were directly absorbed into the big knife, making the space violently distorted.
Suddenly, the broadsword split into two, and the two turned into four, and so on and so on, countless purple sword lights surrounded Lygu.
As soon as the murderous aura came into contact with Legu, Legu suddenly felt a warm feeling hit him, like a breeze blowing on his face, and the tension immersed in the battle immediately relaxed, and the beautiful pictures of the past flashed one by one in that way.
When Zilong's knife fell, the killing intent that came to his face woke up Laigu, and he immediately soaked his whole body in a cold sweat, and when he came back to his senses, his hands suddenly slapped upward, using all his strength, but he was always one step too late.
Zilong's strength is getting stronger and stronger when it falls, but Laigu is in a hurry to meet the battle, Zilong's big knife is like a bamboo, and it easily breaks through Laigu's power, and the huge pressure suddenly hits Laigu, pressing him unable to move a step.
"Boom", Zilong's Yuan Ling Knife hit Lai Gu's spiritual shield fiercely, and as soon as Pu came into contact, a huge resistance suddenly came, but the Yuan Spirit transformed by the exercise was replenishing energy at all times, and the spiritual shield began to tremble under the increasing pressure, cracked, and finally shattered. Raghu forced down the blood that was churning in his chest, flashed to the side as fast as he could, and the broadsword fell from his shoulder.
Two screams rang out almost simultaneously and pierced the sky, Rygu fell to the ground with his hands on his bubbling shoulders, and the shadow on the other side, which was still entangled with the shadow rat, was also flawed by his master's injury and was knocked to the ground by the shadow rat.
Confirming that Laigu no longer had the ability to attack, although Zilong was a little unbearable in his heart, the strength of this old man should not be underestimated, if it weren't for his gentle murderous aura being extremely unique, he would not have subdued the old man so easily.
Lai Gu endured the severe pain in his body, panting, glaring at Zilong angrily, and secretly thought in his heart: "If it weren't for the carelessness of the moment, how could I be so embarrassed, that damn old guy, just left in anger at this critical moment." If he doesn't come back, the forbidden land will be broken into, and although no one on the continent can open that thing, they won't have any good fruit to eat just because someone has broken into it. Thinking of this, Legu couldn't help but glance at the path.
Laigu's casual glance happened to make Zilong see it, and he suddenly remembered what the old man said when he appeared, and then he realized that there should be another person, if another person appears, I am afraid that he will not be able to get any benefit from his current state. He turned to Shadow Mouse and said, "Shadow Mouse, go and look around, and let me know if anyone comes." ”
As soon as the shadow mouse heard the command, it turned into a bolt of lightning and was rushed out of a hundred meters in the blink of an eye. When Zilong turned around again, he saw Lygu's trembling fingers pointing in the direction where the shadow mouse had disappeared, his lips trembling and unable to speak for a long time.
How is it possible, how can the shadow be a hundred meters away from the master. The shock in Lygu's heart at this moment cannot be described in words, and his mind has been in a state of chaos. He couldn't understand how the shadow could be a hundred meters away from his master, this was an eternal truth in the Lixi Continent for thousands of years, but it was broken today. Instead, he thought of the history recorded in the ancient annals. There used to be a secret family that was good at shadow art that could be separated from the shadow, but it was a long-lost secret method, and now no one in the Lixi Continent would use it, and even its authenticity was questioned. But today he really saw it. Could it be that this young man is a hidden ancient family?
In Legu's impression, the oldest and most mysterious family is none other than that person's descendants, but thousands of years ago have passed but have never appeared, will this young man who suddenly appear have anything to do with that family, and only such a noble race can master such exquisite shadow arts. Looking at Zilong's eyes wearing sunglasses, Lai Gu tried hard to see what was going on, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt like it. Not only unconsciously, Lai Gu's attitude towards Zilong began to change unconsciously, no longer glaring so angrily, but respecting it from the heart.
