Chapter 22 - The Center of the Vortex

Since occupying Xuancheng, the capital of Qi State, and defeating the departure of the country that tried to control the northern part of Qi to contain the footsteps of the Dark Legion, no one in the entire Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent could stop the Dark Legion's conquest. By this time, the troops who had left the country had been forced to withdraw from the city, and nearly 30,000 troops had been lost in a defensive battle. However, the losses of the army were still secondary, and it was crucial to give the morale and psychological blow to the troops leaving the country, and after the end of this battle, the morale of the troops leaving the country was fluctuating, and it was obvious that they no longer had the capital to continue fighting.

In desperation, Empress Chen Xinyu of Shengde could only choose to retreat her army to the Xuanling Continent and returned to Tianhailing to prepare to return to the Xuanling Continent. But for the Dark Legion to come to the water, their real purpose is to seize the Qingming Umbrella from Chen Xinyu's hands, as well as to seize the Nine Domains Artifact Qimen Bagua from Feng Yuchong, who was hidden in the Yue clan. Once these two artifacts are in hand, when the main force of the real Dark Legion arrives, all problems will be solved. And now, they also need to get another artifact on the Nine Domains, Jade Jade, after the two Mingyi envoys discussed it, the Mingyi envoy with a giant hammer as a weapon volunteered to go to the Nine Domains, and now he has gone to the Nine Domains through the Tongtian Ice River, I believe that it will not take long to get back the Jade Jade. Because now that there is no one guarding the Nine Domains Continent, even if there is someone who will not be his opponent, it is easy to get back the Jade Luoyu.

After resting for two days, the remaining Mingyi envoy commanded the main force of the Dark Legion to go north directly to pursue the main army of the country that was about to start crossing the sea and return to the Xuanling Continent, and he had an almost complete grasp of the situation in front of him. According to the news he had received from the Dark Gods, he would be able to get the Glass Bell and join them in half a month at the latest. This means that he must get the Qingming Umbrella and Qimen Bagua within half a month, which is an embarrassing thing for this Mingyi envoy who has always been accustomed to steady and steady work. Of course, he did not dare to disobey the orders of the dark evil god under any circumstances, so he immediately pursued the movements of the army that left the country two days later.

And what this Mingyi envoy didn't expect was that Feng Yuchong and his group of six young people and Phantom Moon did not make a move according to common sense, under the guidance of Phantom Moon, the last descendant of the Wu Clan, they decided to risk crossing the Sinking Leaf Demon Spirit Continent and strive to destroy the Dark Star that supported the main force of the Dark Legion that was still on the Sinking Leaf Demon Spirit Continent, which was also their last hope.

From Phantom Moon, they also learned that the reason why the Dark Legion was reluctant to launch a pursuit campaign to directly destroy their Qi country was to prevent internal problems in themselves, and on the other hand, they wanted to seize the key artifacts left by the Seven Creation Gods to seal the labyrinth, once the Dark Evil God obtained these seven artifacts, he could open the seal of the Dark Legion and rescue the main force of the Dark Legion that was originally trapped in it, and of course, his own body.

It was precisely with this understanding that these six young men and Phantom Moon dared to go south and go straight to the Xuanling River overnight, without worrying about the appearance of the Dark Legion on the way. Because one thing they all know is that the Qingming umbrella in the hands of Empress Chen Xinyu is also one of the seven artifacts, as long as the Qingming umbrella in Chen Xinyu's hand does not fall into the hands of the Dark Legion, the main force of the Dark Legion must continue to pursue the army leaving the country to the north. It was this strategic gap that gave the six young people a chance, and the main force of the Dark Legion was in the north, and it was difficult to stop them from advancing in all respects. Their future is now completely unpredictable and uncontrollable, and in general, it will be a daunting task that no one has ever seen before.

For them, it does not take long to reach the location where the Xuanling River whirlpool opens, ordinary people need to walk for nearly a month, but they can reach it in only three days, and there is no need to travel day and night in these three days, and they can rest and wait halfway. However, due to the severity of the current situation, the six young people had no choice but to choose to travel day and night, and rushed to the now empty Xuanling River at noon the next day. The main people living on the edge of the river basin on this side of the Xuanling River are fishermen from Xuancheng and Quecheng, who have lived by the Xuanling River for generations and have been fishing for generations.

Once upon a time, there were even more than 1,000 fishermen at the most prosperous time here, and more or less dried fish were tied to fishing boats at the door of every house. The most prosperous fishery here provided a large part of the profits for the Qi state, including internal improvements to the food of ordinary people. However, now the fishermen's houses that were once built here along the Xuanling River have all been destroyed by the flames, and the fishermen have fled to their deaths, and the most prosperous fishing shrine here has also become a ruin that melted in the flames.

They have been here before, and although they have not experienced and experienced life here, they are also very touched by the thriving fishing and diligent lifestyle here.

Phantom Moon understood the feelings of the six young people, and she didn't stop them from stepping on this land that had been reduced to ashes in the flames, even though this land was filled with the smell of death, giving people a creepy feeling all the time. Of course, Phantom Moon had already looked down on life and death, and she even used the ice-based witch secret technique to kill countless foreign invasion troops in the final defense battle of the Nine Domains, and she didn't feel much about it. After all, she is not a normal person now, her duty is to defend the Nine Domains, to defend the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent, the Dark Legion has now fundamentally threatened the safety of the entire continent, she must stop the Dark Legion as much as possible through her own way.

When Feng Yuchong, Feng Shanshan, Yu Fei, Nangong Yun, Luo Yinying, and Sun Hao returned to her side, Phantom Moon had already investigated the surrounding situation, and in fact, she didn't need to observe and understand, and from the bank of the Xuanling River, she could clearly see the huge flowing water vortex located in the center of this Xuanling River. But the strange thing is that most of the water of the Xuanling River will leave this whirlpool from both sides and continue to flow south, and only the water in the center that happens to collide with this whirlpool will be attracted by this whirlpool, which is a very strange scene.

As for the explanation of this scene, Phantom Moon herself is not very clear about what caused this situation. But what she knew was that with the arrival of the Dark Legion, the sky that would have been cloudy and sunny and the sky was cloudy, and it was even difficult to see the clear daylight. It is clear that the situation is becoming more and more serious, and there is no time for further delays.

"Everyone get ready," When the six young people, Feng Yuchong, Feng Shanshan, Yu Fei, Nangong Yun, Luo Yinying, and Sun Hao, returned to Phantom Yue, Phantom Moon began to explain the situation in front of them according to what she had roughly seen. "In fact, according to the attraction of this whirlpool, we only need to approach the top of it, and the attraction should be directly attracted to it, so everyone had better be fully prepared before entering. Because no one knows what kind of power and secrets are hidden in this eternal lock, after all, this is the mysterious power left by the creator god, and there may be many secrets hidden by the unknown. “

Feng Yuchong, Feng Shanshan, Yu Fei, Nangong Yun, Luo Yinying and Sun Hao nodded in agreement, they are now weighing the possibility of specific content, but in fact, they have no choice. At this time, Phantom Moon continued: "I hope you can all fully understand the meaning of going to the Sinking Leaf Demon Spirit Continent now, my mission is to protect the safety of the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent and the Nine Domains. And unfortunately, because I am already a person who does not belong to this era, everything else needs to be done by yourself. The Lost City is in the desert in the very center of the Sinking Leaf Demon Spirit Continent, and the Dark Star only needs you to go to the desert to be able to see it. At that time, destroy the Dark Star with Qimen gossip. ”

In fact, there is no need for Phantom Moon to explain, since the Dark Army invaded the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent, Feng Yuchong, Feng Shanshan, Yu Fei, Nangong Yun, Luo Yinying, and Sun Hao, the six young people have been thinking about how to fight against it every day and night. But they never imagined that one day they would go to the Xuanling River to find the river whirlpool that had been made a mirror image by the Holy Emperor, and from here they would pass through the Eternal Lock to the mysterious Sinking Leaf Demon Spirit Continent that they had never heard of before. But today, they are at the end of their rope, and only by taking such a risk can they have a chance to survive.

"You use the soul to protect yourself, Yu Chong uses the Qimen Bagua while entering the whirlpool, I will urge the harmony and protection of the Qimen Bagua, whether we live or die depends on whether we can go straight through the whirlpool to the eternal lock. "By the Xuanling River, Phantom Moon is making the final deployment and plan, she has put on a long white dress swaying in the wind, like a fairy of the Xuanling River.

Feng Yuchong, Feng Shanshan, Yu Fei, Nangong Yun, Luo Yinying, and Sun Hao took out their own souls from their packages at the same time and urged their spiritual power to use their souls, and the protective rings of souls rising from the soles of their feet wrapped the six of them in it. After everything was ready, Feng Yu nodded at Phantom Moon and grabbed his sister Feng Shanshan's palm. The six young people encouraged each other with their eyes, Sun Hao was the first to jump into the Xuanling River, and the huge attraction of the whirlpool immediately began to take effect, attracting Sun Hao's body, which was originally temporarily stuck in mid-air, downward, and the huge attraction made Sun Hao's body shake continuously. The whirlpool also attracted Sun Hao's Cloud Piercing Arrow Soul, and Sun Hao hurriedly turned his head and shouted to his companions: "This attraction is too strong, I can't hold on anymore!"

"Let's go!" Yu Fei, Nangong Yun and Luo Yinying, the three girls, also took off with their feet and went straight to the whirlpool of the Xuanling River. Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan followed suit, and when they were about to approach the whirlpool, Feng Yuchong took out the Qimen gossip from his arms and threw it on top of their heads with all his might. Then, their bodies began to sink at a rapid rate, and the huge attraction of the Xuanling River Vortex drew them all downward.

Phantom Yue, who was standing on the shore, saw the Qimen gossip flying out of Feng Yuchong's body, she raised her hands to the shoulder position and immediately flipped them, her palms turned into fingers pointing directly at the Qimen gossip, and at the same time shouted loudly: "Secret Technique, Birth!"
