Ning Chu hadn't had time to take a closer look around, and immediately tensed up after hearing Bai Su's shout.

His eyes looked vigilantly in the direction Bai Su was pointing.

I saw a person sitting on the ruins in the distance.

Because it was very far away, coupled with the obstruction of the broken wall and the like, it was impossible to see the appearance of that person, but Rao was like this, which also made Ning Chu nervous.

Being able to appear here shows that the person is not simple.

"Go over and see. ”

He originally wanted Bai Su to stay here and go to see it alone, but before he could say anything, Bai Su had already spoken, and leaned over without doubt.

"Be careful. ”

Ning Chu sighed helplessly and hurriedly walked in front of her.

As they approached the figure, they were looking around with their peripheral vision.

This is supposed to be the top of the mountain, as if someone had cut off the tip of the mountain with a sword, forming a flat area, paved with bluestone at the foot, and there were collapsed palace buildings everywhere.

What's even weirder is that there are no sun, moon and stars above the head.

What the two of them saw was a huge whirlpool, and when there was occasional thunder and lightning, they could also see that there were many strange rune patterns around the whirlpool.

It felt weird, like someone was scribbling in the sky.

Ning Chu and Bai Su gasped.

What a stroke of effort it must have to make the sky above the mountain appear like this.

The whirlpool was like the eye of the East China Sea, as if it could swallow everything, and when they looked at it, their souls trembled, and they felt as small as a speck of dust.

"What do you think this scene looks like?" Bai Su said coldly, as if he had discovered something.

When Ning Chu heard this, he said without thinking: "It's like poking a hole in the sky." ”

Bai Su nodded and did not speak.

At this time, Ning Chu trembled, and suddenly figured out the meaning of Bai Su's words.

poked a hole in the sky, could it be the head of the distant mountain?

In an instant, Ning Chu's mind thought of a lot of things like electricity, his eyes immediately widened, and he said hurriedly: "Measuring the sky? Could it be that this madman 'stabbed' the sky in order to 'measure the sky'? How is this possible?"

Ning Chu was also taken aback by his own speculation.

The sky is vast, and it communicates with the outside world.

Theoretically speaking, there is no so-called height of heaven at all, and it is completely infinitely extended.

Could it be that he pierced the atmosphere?...... Ning Chu felt more and more at this moment that this Yuanshan Dao Leader was simply a madman.

However, what did he and Qi Yuan discover in the first place that would have such a crazy idea?

The more I thought about it, the more frightened I became.

Ning Chu faintly felt that he seemed to be really involved in an earth-shattering secret.

All the confusion at the moment seemed to be focused on the figure.

The two of them couldn't help but speed up.

After getting closer, Ning Chu and the two of them could see clearly.

It was a middle-aged man, dressed in a patched gray robe, with his hair tied back at the back of his head, sitting cross-legged on a standing stone with his back to them.

"Dead. ”

Bai Su opened his mouth lightly, and Ning Chu also found out at this time.

There was a bloody hole the thickness of a thumb on the skull of the middle-aged Taoist priest.

The two turned to the front of the Taoist priest and changed color in unison.

"Could it be him?"

"The Distant Mountain Road Chief?"

Although they had never seen the Taoist of the distant mountains, they felt that nine times out of ten they were this person.

I don't know why I died here.

But what's even more strange is that the expression of the Taoist in the far mountains is very calm, and he does not have the fear and panic when facing death.

Ning Chu even noticed that there was an imperceptible smile on the corner of the mouth of the Daoist of the Far Mountains.

There was a faint smug and mocking look in those sloppy eyes.

"Look here. Bai Su pulled Ning Chu for a moment.

Following her finger, there was a tall altar in front of the Distant Mountain Chief.

The altar is divided into two parts, the lower part is a square with a length and width of ten zhang, and the upper part is a circle of the same diameter, and the two sides fit together perfectly, which seems to represent the meaning of 'the sky is round and the place is round'.

And that's not the point.

Bai Su let him see the things on the altar.

It was a giant machine about three feet in diameter and more than a foot high, with a perfect metallic sheen, and strange runes carved into the surface and interior of the machine.

Ning Chu didn't know these things, and he couldn't understand them.

But there was one place where he could guess the purpose.

It was a metal cylinder the thickness of a grinding disc extending from the top of the massive machine.

"Barrel!"

Not only him, but Bai Su also recognized it.

This cannon barrel is almost exactly the same as the 'Spirit Cannon' on the warship.

It's just that the one in front of me looks even more magnificent and amazing, and it is simply a giant in the barrel.

Could it be that the head of the distant mountain road bombed the sky with a cannon?...... The more Ning Chu thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible, and at this time, Bai Su discovered a new clue.

"Look here. ”

As Bai Su spoke, he stretched out his finger and pointed to the central area of the giant machine, where there was a metal device similar to a disc, and many strange runes were also carved on the surface.

In addition to this, there are many neatly distributed grooves on the metal disc.

Some of the grooves are empty, while others are inlaid with gray diamond-shaped stones.

"These stones look familiar......"

Just as Ning Chu frowned and whispered, Bai Su raised his hand and took out a diamond-shaped crystal, which was the crystal nucleus that he had found in the house of the Daoist Elder of the Far Mountain in the Qingniu Taoist Temple.

The moment he saw this crystal nucleus, Ning Chu finally understood.

Isn't that the gray stone in those grooves just that?

It's just that the crystal nucleus inside has lost its luster, just like a used spirit stone, and has turned into a waste stone.

Bai Su didn't speak, raised his hand and pressed the crystal nucleus on the groove of the metal disc, just inlaid it tightly.

"Sure enough, this thing is the 'Measuring Ruler'. Ning Chu shouted.

At the same time, I also had a guess in my heart, and analyzed:

"This so-called 'measuring ruler' is actually an energy cannon, and the crystal nucleus should be an energy conversion device, each piece can convert energy with a range of thousands of zhang. ”

Bai Su: "So ......"

Ning Chu was slightly excited, and said hurriedly: "So we only need to look at how many crystal nuclei he used, and we can know how high the 'sky' he has measured. ”

As the words fell, the two of them looked at the metal disc in unison.

In addition to the crystal nucleus that Bai Su just put on, there are thirteen pieces.

If you calculate it according to the range of 1,000 zhang per block...... The sky is 13,000 feet high!

The sky is 13,000 feet high!

The two of them gasped at the same time.

Is there really a height in the 'sky'?

"What is it above 13,000 zhang? Won't it be the place where the 'immortals' live?"

Ning Chu's eyes were full of shock.

Today's discovery is in great conflict with his cognition.

If the 'sky' really has height, does that mean that they are all encased in a big shell?

"No wonder 'Evoke' doesn't work. "Ning Chu suddenly realized, maybe this is not a direct factor, but it must be related to the mysterious energy that blocks the 'Soul Summoning Technique'.

Is there really a saying that the sky is round and the earth is round?

Also, why did the Governor of the Far Mountains show that expression before he died?

What did he find? Who was he mocking?

At last...... Who killed him?

Ning Chu felt that he was a little messy, he had just figured out one mystery after another, and before he had time to be happy, a new mystery immediately appeared, and it was even more mysterious.

"Look at his hands. ”

Bai Su suddenly opened his mouth and found a new clue.
