Chapter 24: Cannibalism
Two days after leaving Xiaoyin Temple, Jiang Yun, who was riding a horse, came to the outskirts of Liuyuan.
He had no intention of entering the county seat, and at noon that day, he had a light meal at the tea shop on the road in the suburbs, and then went to look for the ring that Chang Lizhen said.
This is exactly the purpose of him not going straight to Shengjiang County, but detouring south to Liuyuan.
Jiang Yun still remembers that in the fragment of time and space of 'Escape from Prison', he and Chang Lizhen escaped from Luzhou Prison, and when they parted, Chang Lizhen specially talked about the ring he wore on his hand at that time.
He didn't say what the ring was for, but with his cautious look, it was clear that the ring was nothing extraordinary.
Where the ring is at the moment, Chang Lizhen did not say. His exact words were: 'If I'm going to die, I'm probably going to throw it somewhere, and I don't know exactly where.' ’
But Jiang Yun still has clues.
He came to Liuyuan to prepare to find any trace of this ring near the battlefield where Chang Li died.
This place is easy to find, just thirty miles east of Liuyuan County. It used to be nothing, just a wasteland, but after the great war ten years ago, it became completely famous.
'Dead Hand' Li Tie, 'Sword Immortal' Wang Kai, and 'Jun Killer Sword' Chang Li, these three top powerhouses in the Abyss Realm, fought to the death in this place. And no matter what the battle was, the landscape of this place had been completely changed by the aftermath of their battle.
According to the records after the incident, the violent aura cleansed this land, and within a radius of more than ten miles, there is no grass until now. It is said that after the war, there was not even a single stone larger than the size of a fingernail, and everything was crushed into powder, only patches of fine sand. When it rains, the land can't even hold the rain.
Ten years after that World War II, there are still deadly aura turbulences here from time to time, and if you are caught up in it, you may die due to the uncontrolled explosion of your spiritual power. A few years ago, even the people of the Realm didn't dare to pass here, and it was only in the last two years that it finally calmed down a lot.
Approaching the edge, he found a tree for his horse and tied it up, and went in alone.
He was still careful to amplify his senses and avoid the turbulence of the aura.
But still, as he navigated the edge of some turbulent vortex, he felt the pain palpably. The aura of the outside world was too manic, and even the internal qi in his body was also stirring. Under the turmoil, all the internal organs are under pressure.
It's been ten years, and the traces left by the battle of the three abyss realms are still so terrifying.
The fragment of time and space that 'escapes'...... If you want to get a high evaluation, you have a long way to go.
Jiang Yun walked very hard in this place, but he could hold on. And while he was resisting the turbulent aura in his body, he was also using the 'Falling Spirit Thaumaturgy', a divine soul method, to sense the position of the ring that Chang Li Zhen said.
According to Chang Lizhen in the fragment of time, he left his unique divine soul mark on the ring, and this mark can only be detected by his unique 'Falling Spirit Thaumaturgy'.
Chang Li died, and the 'Meteorite Thaumaturgy' severed its inheritance. Now in this world, he should be the only one who has mastered this divine soul technique.
This place is actually not big, and the terrain is particularly flat, except for the aura turbulence is a little uncomfortable, it is actually very easy to walk.
But Jiang Yun turned around the place, but he didn't find anything special.
A cold sweat broke out on his forehead: I can't find this!
Actually, it's normal to not be able to find it.
After all, ten years have passed, and nothing has happened. It is even said that Chang Lizhen was in real history, when he faced the powerhouse of the two abyss realms, he didn't inform him in advance, and he didn't have time to find a chance to put the ring away.
The unbeliever looked around again, and after confirming that he didn't find anything, Jiang Yun could only comfort himself: "It's okay...... I'm glad I lost my life......"
But despite all that, he was still very unhappy!
That ring must be a very good thing, originally he came to find it with great expectations, but he found nothing, it is strange that it can really be so easy to let go.
But what can be done?
Jiang Yun could only leave regretfully, found his horse, and then turned back and walked away step by step.
After discerning the direction, Jiang Yun headed east.
Since you haven't found what you're looking for here, there's no need to stay in Liuyuan anymore. According to the plan, he went to Shengjiang City to Burial Sword Villa to seek protection from Lu Jianxi, the owner of Burial Sword Villa.
On the way, he kept driving the 'Falling Thaumaturgy', wanting to see if he could gain anything......
The result is there!
After running east for about half an hour, he suddenly felt a sense of spiritual connection.
The feeling was faint, but it became more and more pronounced as he headed east.
With this line, he kept getting closer.
The closer you get, the stronger this sense of connection becomes.
When it was dark, he finally found his target - it was a bear monster!
Halfway up a small hill, Jiang Yun saw a small thatched hut with cooking smoke wafting out of it.
At first, he thought that there were mountain people living here, but when he looked closely, he felt that it was wrong. The small hut looks very dilapidated, with two holes in the top, one large and one small. Ordinary people living here will fix the roof after all, right?
And outside the hut, on a rough wooden pole, hung some meat.
After getting closer, Jiang Yun found that these were all human flesh! An uneaten thigh, hanging from a wooden pole, and ribs, arms, and the like.
First a chill came, and then he was angry!
In his concept, killing people is just a matter of eating people...... This is something that is not acceptable.
Then he saw a bear standing upright and coming out of the hut.
This bear monster is a large body, about two meters tall, with erect feet, more flexible five fingers on its forelimbs, and a rough axe. Around its waist, a string of dirty gray cloth was wrapped around it, covering its crotch.
The bear monster walked over to the pole and pulled off the half-gnawed thigh. As he walked towards the hut, he tore a piece of meat from his thigh and ate it.
Jiang Yun cautiously assessed the strength of the other party.
There is no doubt that the physical strength of this bear monster must be much stronger than his, which can be seen from the size.
However, in terms of aura, Jiang Yun felt that the other party only had a little instinctive feeling.
Combined with the memories of the predecessor, the bear monster is a monster that can occasionally be seen in the mountains, and the strength is about the level of three to five stars, and the specific strength depends on different individuals. They will have basic wisdom, but not much, and there is no possibility of edification.
If it were just that, Jiang Yun might not choose to do it. Although he hated the other party's cannibalism, if he encountered a stronger individual, it would still be more dangerous to fight.
However, the connection with the unknown ring made Jiang Yun have to do it.
At such a close distance, he could clearly perceive that the ring was in the belly of this bear monster!
