Chapter 211: The Source of the Jia River
Shi Xuan traveled all over the surroundings of Jiahe City, the people here have indeed undergone tremendous changes, with the recovery of the aura of heaven and earth, more and more young children are gradually suitable for cultivation, and many of them even show their cultivation talent at the age of five or six, which is unimaginable for Shi Xuan now.
When Shi Xuan first showed his cultivation talent, he was also after the age of eight or nine, but now that the spiritual energy is abundant, the cultivator's talent has been further stimulated, and within the Tianhai Yuan and other academies, more and more children have entered the academy, and the grade they entered is breaking records every year, and everyone is aware of the changes in the energy of heaven and earth.
It is rumored that those high-level spiritual masters with extremely strong strength even have a long lifespan, as long as they are not killed, their lifespans can reach hundreds of years, and it is even rumored that the spirit masters above the saint can almost be immortal and immortal, and the gods will live forever.
But on the current continent, 10,000 years of time buried that ancient era, and the aura gradually dried up during the 10,000 years, and even the powerhouses of the Spirit Realm could not be born at the most serious time, and countless inheritances on the continent were interrupted, and the holy land of the sect could not obtain fresh bloodline replenishment, and finally withered on the continent, and their decay also took away a lot of inheritance.
And those terrifying ancient saints were also buried in history for various reasons, and most of the saints who survived to the present appeared in the form of remnant souls, which also proves that most of the saints of that era died in battle, otherwise with their long lifespan, they could naturally resist the ravages of time.
Until now, Shi Xuan had only seen a living Dragon Clan Sage, he was the Dragon Clan powerhouse who killed the Blood God on the Tianxuan Mountain Range, and the Sages that Shi Xuan encountered outside of this were all remnant soul forms, and they had already fallen to the peak, and there was no possibility of resurrection.
Aura is very important to the creatures of this world, it can be called the foundation of the spirit master, the era of depletion of spiritual energy, it can be said that it is also the most serious era of human race, the strength of the sect at that time was weak, and it could not suppress countless huge empires at all, and the empire relied on a vast army, which was enough to deter the only remaining sect strength in the world.
For the past 10,000 years, spirit masters have been surviving in the cracks of the empire, and once their existence threatens the safety of the empire, they will face the strangulation of the empire, and for countless years, many ancient inheritances have been interrupted in this way.
The rise of secular empires has also led to the continent falling into the Warring States Period many times, resulting in many contradictions between empires, and hatred has continued, in the past 10,000 years, although countless empires have occupied the continent, but the human race is no longer the united race of 10,000 years ago, with the weakening of external threats, the desire for power within the human race has gradually become the source of turmoil on the continent.
The Danyang Empire is the best example, they have too many glorious years, as the only one in history, the super empire that unified the southwest continent, Danyang has been shrouded in the glory of the past for thousands of years, which has also led to countless Danyang Empire lords want to restore the glory of the past, and countless war maniacs were born, but no one in Danyang has completed the great cause of unification.
Now that the aura of heaven and earth is recovering, the pattern of the world has changed again, the rise of the spirit master is unstoppable, the secular empire is suppressed by the spirit master again, and the influence of the empire on the continent in the future will become ethereal, and the powerful super power will take over the right to speak on the continent.
The spirit master has once again reached the peak of the continent, and no empire can challenge the powerful super power, and no one can expect the world to change.
Shi Xuan traveled all over the corners of his elder brother in Jiahe City, and he decided to enter the core of the Fire Domain to explore, the people of Hongyan Ridge have been exploring the edge of the Fire Domain for many years, and few people have crossed the mountains to enter the core of the Fire Domain.
The two major fire domains in the world, Hongyan Ridge and Huoshen Mountain, one east and one west, separated by tens of thousands of miles, Huoshenshan has a strong holy land inheritance, known as the holy land of fire spirit masters, but their Hongyan Ridge is just a barren land, if it were not for the increase in the production of fire spirit materials in recent years, Hongyan Ridge is still a barren land, no one cares.
Huoshenshan was able to give birth to the Holy Land, naturally because of the unique environment and spiritual materials produced there, all of which Hongyanling now also has this condition.
Shi Xuan also wanted to explore the fire domain of Hongyan Ridge, this vast and boundless land had buried too much history, but Shi Xuan knew that Hongyan Ridge 10,000 years ago was by no means as barren as it is now.
The entrance to the Fire Spirit Realm is here, there is a dispute between the Divine Phoenix Clan and the Dragon Clan in Huoyun Mountain, and Shi Xuan has witnessed the appearance of the Qingluan Fire Phoenix in the deep mountains, all of which shows that this is definitely not a barren place, but history has buried everything.
In the sky above Jiahe City, Shi Xuan rode the purple-winged lion and flew over the mountains, the endless fire domain was close at his feet, the turbulent Jiahe roared and rushed into the distance, he decided to find out along the Jiahe River, there are too many rumors about the Jiahe River, Shi Xuan is so big, he has never reached its source to investigate, this time taking advantage of this break, he is ready to go.
Above the sky, Shi Xuan saw countless mountains in the distance steaming, these were the traces left after the eruption of the active volcano, which was also the characteristic of Hongyan Ridge.
A great talent was chosen in Shi Xuan's field of vision, it was the mountain that Xue Longhai brought Shi Xuan to this world back then, Shi Xuan came here again to pay homage to his former benefactor.
Without him sworn to defend to the death, Shi Xuan would not have been able to reach this world alive, the traces of the battle between Xue Longhai and the demons back then had long been buried by volcanic ash, and even the pit that was smashed out had been filled with volcanic lava, and Shi Xuan could no longer find the remnants of Xue Longhai.
He has been repeating the nightmare of his childhood all these years, dreaming that his family was destroyed by powerful demons, but no matter what, he can't know his true background, which is also Shi Xuan's huge regret over the years.
In the fragments of Shi Xuan's memory, Shi Xuan knew that his family was definitely not simple, and he had terrible strength in this world, but he was still destroyed by the demon army, and he had been secretly searching for answers, but to no avail.
Shi Xuan also asked Xu Siyuan from Zhongzhou about them, but they hadn't heard of the super force that was wiped out twenty years ago, obviously Shi Xuan's family was unlikely to come from Zhongzhou, and in the Southwest Continent, Shi Xuan had not been to the entire Southwest Continent except for the Moon Worship Sect in the west, and he had not been to the entire Southwest Continent, but there was also no information.
Shi Xuan couldn't imagine where his family came from, and why he provoked such a terrifying demon raid?
Shi Xuan stared blankly at the mountains in front of him, it was here that he was taken home by his father, and it had been seventeen years in the blink of an eye, but he still hadn't found the answer.
Shi Xuan turned around and looked up at the sky, someone had witnessed it back then, Xue Longhai and the demons had broken the space barrier and came to this world, Shi Xuan's heart was full of doubts at the moment, could it be that there were other worlds beyond this sky, why were they able to cross the world and come here?
Shi Xuan has cultivated until now, and he also knows that if he can't enter the Holy Realm, it will be impossible to travel across the space, and if he wants to travel through the space to explore the answer, at least after the Holy Realm.
At least for now, there is no way for him to destroy the demon of his family, it is definitely not a good kind, with his current strength, even if he knows who the enemy is, it is impossible to complete revenge.
Shi Xuan bowed down to the mountain on the mountainside, Xue Longhai fell here, without his sacrifice, Shi Xuan would have died at the hands of the enemy.
"Uncle Xue, Shi Xuan has to leave today, I will come to see you in the future, your kindness Shi Xuan cannot be repaid, I will definitely ask them to repay this blood debt in the future", Shi Xuan finished speaking, and then flew away again on the purple-winged lion.
Shi Xuan looked at the Jiahe River under his feet, he had been flying for a long time, but he still hadn't seen the source, in the fire domain where it rarely rained, Shi Xuan couldn't imagine how the Jiahe River was born, and he had to find out when he got here.
In front of him, the surrounding area was already covered with volcanoes and lava, and volcanic eruptions were very frequent, and the sky was littered with smoke and dust. There was lava flowing everywhere above the ground, and it was impossible for ordinary people to penetrate here.
In the sky in the distance, Shi Xuan didn't dare to fly around anymore, he saw many terrifying fierce birds, the strength of these huge spirit beasts was terrifying, now that he was alone, there was no need to provoke them, Shi Xuan lowered the altitude of his flight and flew along the surface of the river, so that he could avoid a large number of spirit beast raids.
In today's Fire Domain, quite powerful spirit beasts have been born, even if Shi Xuan's strength has reached the Spirit Realm now, he doesn't dare to be presumptuous at all, any spirit beast of the sixth order has a terrible threat to him, if he encounters the level of a divine beast, it is simply looking for death.
Even on the Jia River is not safe, there will be terrible beasts in the river here, just when Shi Xuan flew forward, the river suddenly set off a terrifying wave, a snake dozens of zhang long suddenly got up, and launched a surprise attack on Shi Xuan and the purple-winged wild lion, the terrible water wave almost overturned Shi Xuan and the wild lion, fortunately they stabilized the late autumn.
Shi Xuan immediately launched a counterattack, the mighty flames launched a blow to it, and the purple-winged mad lion also launched a fierce attack, and the body of the snake swept up the endless river, forming a huge water curtain barrier, blocking Shi Xuan's sea of fire.
The restraint of the water element made Shi Xuan and the Purple Winged Crazy Lion have to give up the fire technique, Shi Xuan raised his sword to slash directly, relying on the gold element to fight, this is the benefit of the dual element, even if his own element is restrained, he can also switch the power of the element to counterattack.
The giant tail of the snake swept, and the power was infinite, but it sprayed Shi Xuan, whose strength was even more terrifying, his heavy sword sword qi was vertical and horizontal, and the power was terrifying, after a few rounds, the snake's whole body was scarred, just when Shi Xuan was about to kill, it was directly embedded in the depths of the Jiahe River with its water shield, and fled far away, and Shi Xuan did not chase far away.
This kind of battle is common next, this river is not as safe as he imagined, iron crocodile, snake, poisonous toad and many strange spirit beasts have appeared one after another, fortunately, Shi Xuan's strength is not very afraid, just a little more trouble.
The peaks and loops, the river becomes meandering, high and low, and there are cliffs and waterfalls everywhere, and the water is huge, flowing from the extremely high cliffs in the distance.
Shi Xuan looked at this spectacle, he really felt very surprised, he continued to fly up along the waterfall, and a huge mountain that towered into the sky appeared, this huge mountain was ridiculously high, straight into the sky, the magma overflowed under the foot of the mountain, and the top of the mountain was covered with snow, and the clouds and mist were shrouded, which was very weird.
And a huge cave appeared in front of Shi Xuan's eyes in the mountainside, and the source of the huge Jia River was in the belly of the mountain, and the turbulent river water flowed out and fell towards the cliff, and finally flowed into the distance.
"I didn't think I could see a snow-capped mountain in the Fire Domain?" Such a spectacle is truly breathtaking.
If he hadn't ventured deep into this place, he would never have imagined that there was such a huge mountain at the source of Jiahe City in his life, and he would not have seen such a strange scene.
"I don't know where this cave leads, let's go in and have a look?" Shi Xuan said curiously to the Purple Winged Madly Lion.
However, at this moment, the purple-winged mad lion seemed a little afraid, there must be danger in such a huge mountain.
"Look at your timid appearance, in a few years, you're afraid you'll even be afraid of rabbits, right?" Shi Xuan said angrily as he looked at the hesitant Purple Winged Wild Lion.
Although Shi Xuan was bold, he had not yet reached the point of arrogance, he also understood that the environment here was weird, and some dangers would inevitably arise, but he was still ready to find out.
Under Shi Xuan's coercion, the Purple Winged Madness Lion still carried Shi Xuan towards the huge cave and flew in, Shi Xuan released his soul power to explore the huge cave, there must be some spirit beasts living here in this cave, he must be careful.
Not long after entering the cave entrance, trouble came on the mountain wall, and a group of spirit monkeys appeared, and they targeted Shi Xuan and the Purple Winged Wild Lion and launched an attack on them.
"Is it true that there are no tigers in the mountains, the monkey is called the king, and the big man will give them a little color to see?" Shi Xuan commanded the Purple Winged Wild Lion to fight.
The purple-winged mad lion opened his eyes angrily, spat out flames, and quickly launched an attack on many spirit monkeys, these spirit monkeys are not strong, but the number is arrogant at the moment, but they soon understood what is called the crushing of strength, the flames of the purple-winged mad lion contain some dragon breath power, which made these spirit monkeys suffer all at once, such purple flames, even their bodies were burned black.
The Purple Winged Wild Lion showed the demeanor of a king, and the power of the bloodline was exerted to the extreme in his body, and these low-level spirit beasts quickly lost the desire to fight in the face of such a fierce bloodline breath, and scattered and fled for their lives.
The purple-winged mad lion proudly spread out its mouth and roared, the sound trembled the cave, and many other spirit beasts fled when they heard the sound.
"Is this a little feeling? Finally, I didn't waste the spiritual materials I gave you in vain?" Shi Xuan patted the huge head of the Purple Winged Madly Lion.
"Shall we keep walking?"
Shi Xuan has been taking in this huge purple-winged mad lion for some days, and he can be regarded as a powerful helper now, although he is usually just a mount for transportation, but in many cases, he can still play a huge role, Shi Xuan is also very satisfied, as a spirit beast with a relatively average bloodline, he can come this far, Shi Xuan is already happy for him.
Intuition told Shi Xuan that this cave is by no means simple, there must be a cave in it, a huge cave, Shi Xuan and the purple winged lion flew for a long time, and did not reach the end, the water under their feet was huge and surging.
On the mountain wall, many spirit beasts attacked them for a long time, but fortunately, the Purple Winged Wild Lion acted as a pioneer and blocked a lot of trouble for Shi Xuan, if Shi Xuan alone would have to die of exhaustion.
The cave suddenly became extremely open, and it was steaming inside, which made Shi Xuan unbelievable, with such a river flowing, it was indeed unbelievable that there was still such a heat wave rolling inside.
In the distance, a group of nasty demon bats flew towards them, their bodies were huge, their fangs were sharp, and they sent out a terrifying sonic attack, Shi Xuan finally made a move this time, and the terrifying flames of his whole body spread out with a wave of his hand, and the field of the fire element was fully exerted, countless demon bats were shrouded in his fire element domain, and under the terrible high temperature, the demon bats let out a terrible cry.
Shi Xuan waved his hands, and within the fire elemental realm, he became furious, countless whirlwinds blew, and a large number of demon bats fell from mid-air one by one under the attack of the flame whirlwind, falling into the water, and all of them died tragically.
The realm of the elements was indeed terrifying, and these demon bats were completely powerless to resist, and under his burst of flames, they were all scorched black by the flames.
Shi Xuan looked at the many demon bat corpses floating on the Jiahe River, and he was also worried about whether the people in Jiahe City would be frightened when they saw this scene.
However, for those with low strength, if a corpse is found, you can get a lot of spirit cores for free, which is also a good income.
As the cave became more open, the dangers in the cave also increased, and Shi Xuan also tried his best to restrain his aura to avoid causing more trouble.
On both sides of the river, there are stalactite pillars everywhere, which are very beautiful, and Shi Xuan is also rare to see such a spectacle, and he has been exploring in this huge cave.
On a river beach, Shi Xuan found some strange spirit stones, Shi Xuan saw a few curiously, and carefully identified them, these are some rare spiritual material ores, washed up by the current on the river bank, in the depths of this cave, there must be a large number of rare spiritual materials.
Just when Shi Xuan was about to leave, a mountain-like spirit beast suddenly crawled out of the river, Shi Xuan and the purple-winged mad lion flew up at once, they cautiously observed the giant beast in front of them, after a while, Shi Xuan finally saw the giant beast in front of him clearly, it was actually a huge iron turtle, the turtle shell of the whole body exuded a metallic luster like cold iron, and his head seemed to be as terrifying as being able to tear all spirit beasts apart.
In the face of such a huge spirit beast, Shi Xuan had no desire to fight at all, although its turtle shell was a spirit ore like cold iron, but Shi Xuan didn't think that he could pull out his turtle shell.
Just when Shi Xuan and the Purple Winged Wild Lion were about to slip away, the terrifying waves instantly rose up, and the Iron Snapping Turtle launched an attack, his body was like a mountain and killed Shi Xuan, his huge head opened its bloody mouth and wanted to bite the Purple Winged Wild Lion to death.
The body of the purple-winged mad lion is not small, but in front of it is like a well-behaved rabbit, it is a good meal. The Purple Winged Wild Lion knew that it was invincible, and flew away directly into the distance, just when Shi Xuan thought it was going to deal with him, the Iron Snapping Turtle suddenly turned around and chased the Purple Winged Wild Lion, as if Shi Xuan didn't have an appetite for him.
The purple-winged mad lion flew high, spewing purple flames towards it, but it was difficult to hurt it in the slightest, its thick turtle shell easily attacked him, the iron snapping turtle set off a huge wave of water to cut off his escape path, flew up and jumped directly into it, the purple-winged mad lion dodged the attack of the water waves, but could not avoid the fatal bite.
At the moment of danger, Shi Xuan's flame shackles pulled away the mad lion, and the iron snapping turtle pounced in the air at once, its huge body slammed straight into the mountain wall, and countless stubborn stones rolled down in an instant, and the power was very terrifying.
Shi Xuan didn't want to fight at all, and disappeared into the distance with the Purple Winged Wild Lion, although the Iron Snapping Turtle's strength and defense were terrifying, but the speed was not flattering, and when he came to his senses, Shi Xuan and the Purple Winged Wild Lion had already run away.
"Big man, you're so fat, the iron snapping turtle wants to eat your meat, see, he's not interested in me at all?" Shi Xuan said to the Purple Winged Wild Lion.
The mad lion roared a few times in dissatisfaction, obviously not accepting Shi Xuan's ridicule, he now has a high level of wisdom, but before his strength reaches the sixth order, it is difficult for him to transform into a human.
Shi Xuan walked all the way, and halfway through, he encountered many fierce spirit beast raids, but fortunately, they responded wittily.
In the cave in front of Shi Xuan and them, there was a sudden fork, and there were different cave passages, Shi Xuan decided to follow the passage where the river flowed, he wanted to see the source of the Jia River.
In this cave, Shi Xuan felt hotter and hotter, and even on the bank of the river, he didn't feel cool at all, as if he had come to the magma world again.
A fiery red glow suddenly appeared in front of them, which was clearly emitted by magma, and Shi Xuan finally understood why it was so hot here.
At this moment, the river water was very hot, obviously caused by the heating of magma, and when Shi Xuan flew forward, he saw that in the cracks around him, lava continued to flow into the Jia River.
When Shi Xuan flew over to observe, he found that these magma contained these spiritual materials, and the spiritual materials that Shi Xuan had picked up before came from these magma.
The magma flowing into the Jia River made a boiling sound, which is why the water of the Jia River became so hot.
After being cooled by the river, many spiritual materials dyed the Jiahe River reddish-brown, and Shi Xuan finally found the reason that he couldn't understand for many years, it was these spiritual materials mixed into the Jiahe River, which changed the water color of the Jiahe River, and also brought a lot of spiritual materials to the fishermen of the Jiahe River, increasing their income, these spiritual materials all came from the cracks here, and the magma flowed into the Jiahe River in a steady stream, which also brought out a wealth of spiritual materials.
