Chapter 228: Empty

Xiang Qingxi sometimes speculated clearly and vaguely, although the conclusion was close to the answer, but he was not sure, his conclusion was the answer, his doppelganger glanced inside the cave, maybe there had been a fierce battle here, but it was just some damaged formation fragments and overturned stone tables, and nothing else.

Xiang Qingxi controlled the doppelganger, gradually diverged his divine sense outward, and the scope of exploration became wider and wider, and the surprise in Xiang Qingxi's heart became bigger and bigger, the huge city lord's mansion in Julu City was magnificent, showing the wealth of its master, but it was ...... here There was no one, and the entire city lord's mansion was ...... Empty.

Divine consciousness explored again, Julu City is centered on the tall city tower, and the houses on both sides are lined up one after another, with tea shops, wine shops, foot shops, butcher shops, temples, public houses, and so on. There are shops specializing in silk and satin, jewelry, spices, incense, paper horses, etc., but there are no people, and the streets that seemed to have been bustling are empty.

The doppelganger's consciousness walked through the street and entered the homes on both sides, one, two, three...... All the house, are ...... Empty.

The entire Julu City...... No one.

It's a ...... Empty city.

If it weren't for the fact that the meat on the butcher shop didn't stink, and if it weren't for the high fragrance of the temple and it didn't burn out, Xiang Qingxi might even believe that this city had always been an empty city.

Xiang Qingxi controlled the clone, cast a sideways movement, flashed out of the City Lord's Mansion, and stood on the empty street, except for the occasional sound of the wind, there was silence here.

There is a strange empty city everywhere, which makes people shudder, walking on the empty streets, you can only hear your own footsteps, even in the daytime, it is terrifying.

Where did the people in the city go?

Xiang Qingxi's doppelganger walked into a restaurant, some of the food here was still on the table, although it lost its heat, but it had just been eaten.

"Illusion?" Xiang Qingxi suddenly popped up such a word in his mind.

"Dragonflies. With a wave of his hand, the thousand-eyed dragon fly, which was still taking a bubble bath, was pulled over.

"Nasty. The dragon fly communicated with Xiang Qingxi with his divine sense, "What are you pulling me over?" They haven't washed enough. ”

"You've been washing for hundreds of years, and you're not afraid to wash the skin off. Xiang Qingxi made a little joke with him, then put away his smile and continued, "You go and help me see if I have fallen into the illusion formation over there." ”

"Oh, there is illusion?" The dragon fly immediately became energetic, although it can crack illusion because of its compound eyes, but there is another important reason, that is, it likes to smoke illusion, a bit like the real world drug psychedelics, illusion is actually a kind of energy in order disorder, so that people who enter the illusion feel real in the confusion.

"I'm not sure, so I'll let you check it out. Xiang Qingxi held the dragon fly in his hand and came to the teleportation array, which had been repaired by blue light, and his whole body was emitting blue light, which was beautiful.

"Well, I love illusions, the more the merrier. The dragon fly nodded, after eating and drinking here for hundreds of years, it was time to do something.

Seeing that the thousand-eyed dragon fly agreed, Xiang Qingxi stood up and put the thousand-eyed dragonfly into the teleportation array, and as the light rose, the dragonfly disappeared into the teleportation array.

At the end of the teleportation array, Xiang Qingxi's clone was already waiting here, and soon, the dragon fly appeared on the teleportation array here, looked around with flashing compound eyes, and slowly flew out of the teleportation array, and came to the sky above the City Lord's Mansion, with a dragon roar, "Roar!"

How did this dragon roar spread out in all directions, "It's not fun, there is no phantom array at all, but there is a huge prohibition outside the city wall, but it is not opened." Strange, why is there no one in this city?"

"Is the ban complete?" When Xiang Qingxi heard this, he was also interested, the formations of the previous two lives had more contact, and the prohibition of this thing, because he had not established a sect, he had only set up small prohibitions such as isolating divine consciousness around his cave mansion, and he had really never been in contact with this kind of prohibition that enveloped the entire city, let alone a giant city like Julu.

The ban is different from the formation, the application of the formation is wider than the ban, and the formation has various functions, such as the common attack formation, the defense formation, the spirit gathering formation, etc., which are all-encompassing, and the prohibition generally has an obstructive effect, such as prohibiting entering, prohibiting the exploration of the divine sense, prohibiting flight, prohibiting touching, and destroying together with a touch, etc., its role is relatively stiff, but it is also more violent.

It can also be said that the formation contains prohibitions, and the prohibitions are just some special-purpose formations, or the prohibitions are for spells, and the formations are for the terrain.

The dragon fly flashed its compound eyes, and a faint and invisible dark light penetrated into the prohibition, and after a while, the dragon fly said with a somewhat tired voice, "It's so powerful, this is the most powerful prohibition I've ever seen, it can prohibit the divine consciousness of people below the Great Heavenly Venerable, flying, and it also contains targeted attacks, if it is fully opened, it is not easy for the Great Heavenly Zun to break through his defenses, it is so powerful, it is complete." ”

Xiang Qingxi nodded, although he didn't know why this city was empty, but he didn't care about all this, Longding Continent, he came, Uncle Quan told him at the moment he was dying, find a chance to return to Longding, there must be an opportunity for him here.

Since the ban has not been opened, then the switch to activate the ban should be in the city lord's mansion, the doppelganger turned around, returned to the city lord's mansion, spread his sense, and began to search carefully, and soon, in the basement of the city lord's bedroom, Xiang Qingxi found two arms carved from huge crystals, at this time, the pair of arms were open, as if they wanted to hug something, and the lines on the arms Xiang Qingxi recognized, this is a kind of carved forbidden runes.

It seems that this pair of arms should be the switch of the ban outside the city, in addition to this pair of arms in the basement, there are several large wooden boxes of red sandalwood carved in gold, this kind of red sandalwood has the effect of isolating the divine sense, so, what is inside the box, I can't see it for the time being.

Xiang Qingxi's doppelganger flashed to the basement, and was about to check the box, when he heard the rapid voice of the thousand-eyed dragon fly, "There are a large number of people riding demon beasts approaching this city, what should I do?"

"Someone wants to get close to this city?" Xiang Qingxi thought for a while, and immediately closed his outstretched arms, and heard a few loud rumbling noises in the sky above the city, and the sky of the entire city suddenly dimmed, and instantly brightened again.

"You turned on the ban?" the dragon fly's voice came again.

"Probably. Xiang Qingxi just guessed that this pair of arms was the switch to turn on the ban.

Outside the giant deer city, the mighty army is advancing, and a few people in front of the team are talking unscrupulously, and an old man with a small neat pointed beard on his chin said, "Big brother, you said that we occupied this giant deer city this time, brother, am I a great achievement?"

"Hahahaha, fourth brother, if we can successfully take the giant deer, you will be the hero of our Demon Qi Kingdom, after I go back, I will definitely report to the king and give you an official and a knight, when the time comes, the eldest brother and I will still rely on the fourth brother, maybe at that time, you will be the eldest brother." The person at the front was a well-mannered middle-aged man, wearing purple soft armor and a purple and gold crown on his head, but there was no smile in his eyes, it was all gloomy.
