Chapter 288 Northland

Suddenly, Huang Fei stopped, only to see him frowning. Zhang Ye asked, "What's wrong?" Huang Fei raised his right index finger and made a shushing gesture to him. Zhang Ye closed his mouth knowingly.

Suddenly, Zhang Ye saw a layer of black clouds flying by. When that layer of black clouds disappeared into the starry sky, Huang Fei breathed a sigh of relief. Zhang Ye continued to ask, "Is it the black cloud just now?" โ€

"Well, though, that's not a black cloud. โ€

"What's that?"

"It's a demon. โ€

Zhang Ye was surprised, "What, you said that the black cloud just now was a demon." โ€

"I said it's a demon, not a black cloud. Huang Fei emphasized repeatedly.

Zhang Ye nodded, "Oh, I see, that's a demon." โ€

"It's good to know. โ€

"Hmm,"

"Don't you know that demons are a terrifying creature in the Starry Sky Ancient Road. โ€

"I don't know. โ€

"It's really strange, you don't even understand the basics, how dare you set foot on the Starry Sky Ancient Road. โ€

Zhang Ye did not speak.

Huang Fei sighed and explained, "Demon, he will eat the shadow." โ€

"I know that. Zhang Ye interjected.

"What, you know and don't know, aren't you trying to tease me. โ€

"No, I don't know. โ€

"You...... You just said you didn't know, and you said you knew. โ€

"I ......" Zhang Ye was speechless for a while, and said after a while, "I know that demons eat shadows, but I don't know why demons eat shadows. โ€

"I see, it seems that you don't have a deep understanding, only a little bit of the devil's skin, so I'll tell you. Those who have been eaten shadows will turn into demons when they die...... What, you-you, ahhhh

Zhang Ye was stunned, following the place where Huang Fei was looking just now. It was under his own feet, and Zhang Ye suddenly realized that he had no shadow.

No matter how people disguise themselves. But there is no shadow that cannot be disguised. This is obvious and overlooked. Because shadows are not an important thing in life.

"What a strange fellow, isn't it just that life and death will become a demon, I'm still early from that day, I have at least 600 million years to live. โ€

Zhang Ye was alone again, but he saw that the black clouds no longer stopped. Because he had no shadow at all, how could he be afraid that the demon would eat him again. Suddenly, the cloud stopped, flew towards Zhang Ye, and turned into a human form. "What...... You don't have a shadow, but what about your shadow, is it hidden? โ€

Zhang Ye said, "I don't have a shadow at all. โ€

"Impossible...... You have a little demonic aura, but you are not a demon. โ€

"Yes, I'm a human, not a demon. โ€

"But what about your shadow, has your shadow been taken away by the devil? โ€

Zhang Ye nodded, "Yes, my shadow has been taken away by the demon. โ€

"But...... No, why didn't you become a demon?"

Zhang Ye said, "I also wonder why I didn't become a demon. โ€

"There's only one possibility, and that's that you're a demon in the first place." โ€

"What?!" Zhang Ye exclaimed, "how is this possible." โ€

"I thought the same thing, but I can't explain it. Forget it, I'm going to eat shadows, I'm not talking nonsense with you, I'll see you again when I have a chance, go first. As he spoke, the demon turned into a black cloud and disappeared into the starry sky.

"Passers-by, stop, you can do it. "The voice of the vicissitudes of life.

Zhang Ye was not very kind, but he stopped, because there was a kind of magic in that voice. Zhang Ye turned around and saw an old man who was hobbling. The area around the old man's forehead was particularly obvious, like the annual rings carved by an old tree. Layer by layer, old wrinkled.

"Uncle, do you have something. โ€

"Please give me life, and I'll be dying. The old man had a sad look on his face.

Zhang Ye suspected that he had misheard, and asked again, "Uncle, what did you say?"

The old man still said, "Please give me life, and I'll die." โ€

Zhang Ye said, "My lifespan is also limited. โ€

"I just need one year, give me one year to live. โ€

"Well, how can I give it to you for a year. โ€

The old man's eyes lit up, "You grab my right hand." โ€

"Good. Zhang Ye grabbed his right hand, and as a result, he felt that something was being pulled away, and the old man's hand kept sucking, and finally, the old man took it down, "Okay, okay, I'm leaving." Yes, a million years of life. โ€

"What, you actually took a million years of my life. โ€

"Yes, you can ask for your own blessings. This warns you not to trust anyone on the path of cultivation. โ€

Zhang Ye couldn't help but be frightened, fortunately it was a million years, if it was a hundred million years, Zhang Ye really couldn't afford to lose. At the same time, he remembered what the old man said when he left: Don't trust anyone on the path of cultivation. The old man was quite right. It may be a necessity, but those who don't have the longevity of themselves will certainly not be able to afford to lose a million years. It's a double-edged sword. Zhang Ye sighed in his heart.

Losing a million years of life is like a small storm injury.

Zhang Ye packed up his mood and continued on the road.

Right now, whoever asked him to stop, or whatever he asked, he didn't listen. He also missed a dozen times to form a team, and he finally made it to the eighteenth level. Every time, a difficulty, Zhang Ye realized what is called a difficulty. This level is undoubtedly reflected.

"You must pass through this sea of swords or you will not be able to move on. "This is a test on the surface, Zhang Yexian does not plan to carry it out, but waits and sees. Many geniuses are eager to try, and they have stepped on the sea of swords.

It's only a second, and the wails are all over the field.

"Ahh โ€

"I'm opting out, I'm going to get out. โ€

"Ah, I'm dying!"

Zhang Yeqingyan witnessed that three died in the first instant, and the fourth died in the second instant......

Of the ten people who went up, less than ten breaths, five died, and half were gone. This made Zhang Ye and the others who were watching couldn't help but take a cold breath. Once entered, you can't exit until you cross this sword mountain and sea of fire.

"There was one guy in my team who died just now. โ€

"This sword mountain and sea of fire is simply looking for death. โ€

"Anyway, I'm not going, you don't want to go. โ€

Many people withdrew from the trip to the Starry Sky Ancient Road, but more people chose to wait and see. At least wait for the five people who are currently alive to make a decision. As a result, one dies in a quarter of an hour, and one dies in an hour......

A day later, ten people, all destroyed.

At this moment, the grief and indignation were extreme, and many people withdrew from the Starry Sky Ancient Road. There is still a batch left. They still had the same indifferent expressions. As if waiting for someone to test the waters. Zhang Ye is also one of them.

This is his mood, hoping that someone with a little more power will go to the sword mountain and the sea of fire. But apparently, all these people left behind were all this idea.

The scene is starry sky and dust, next to the sword mountain and sea of fire, and the atmosphere is deadlocked.

After all, someone couldn't help it, "Isn't there anyone going?" โ€

No one answered him.

"If no one goes, what are you staying here for? โ€

"Are you an idiot, you don't know it yourself. โ€

"I'm not a fool, I'm going to go up to you. โ€

"Cut. โ€

Anyway, everyone just doesn't go on it, waiting for others to get on. But apparently no one will be there. That's the same as ......

Eventually, a person who seemed to be quite prestigious stood up, "I have another suggestion, I don't know if you will listen to it." โ€

"Say it. "They decided to listen to it. Quite a few people recognized him, "Oh, he's the Northland." โ€

Northland, "There must be many people who recognize my identity, I am Northland, yes, my purpose is very simple, I want to pass the test, and I also hope that everyone will pass the test." So, I decided to work together, and I hope you will cooperate. โ€

"Yes, Northland, your name spreads throughout the Starry Sky Ancient Road. โ€

"We've got your back. โ€

"I decided to follow you. โ€

The Northland immediately attracted a few followers.

"Thank you, thank you all for your support. "I hope to experience the sea of swords and fires with you." Success or failure, we're all in this together. โ€

"Okay, Northland, I trust your judgment. โ€

"Me ...... too"

"Let's all go together, then. The crumbs are numbered, one by one. โ€

Northland recruited a lottery bucket, and everyone drew lots.

Then follow the row number one by one.

Zhang Ye saw that his number was fifty-three, and the number was ninety-seven. The last number, so to speak, is the most favorable. Because the people in front of them are experimental cannon fodder, which can be used for research.

Zhang Ye found that the northern land was at the bottom, that is, the ninety-seventh. He couldn't help but think that the props were taken out by the Northland, maybe he was fake. Moreover, with the previous ninety-six cannon fodder, even if he is not successful, he can finally walk away. Zhang Ye felt the sinister intentions of the Northland. However, this is the way of the monk: man does not destroy heaven and earth for his own sake.

"Ahh

"I'm dead!"

Still death.

It seems to be deliberate, setting an hour for one person. Gradually, everyone knew. The person in front is clearly cannon fodder. Some people even understood that it was designed by the Northland. Because the Northland is the last. But you can't say much, the road is your own choice. It's a foregone conclusion.

"The sword mountain and the sea of fire should be a combination of flame and stone. Zhang Ye is not only observing how the people who died in front of him died, he is also thinking about finding a way to solve it. Otherwise, it is useless to know the experience of the previous people's death. It's important to find a way to crack it.

"I ...... I can't go up. "Thirty-four stopped suddenly, and an hour passed, and the people in front of him died. He didn't want to go up. Because he knew that he couldn't get by, and he would just die.

"Go up, don't procrastinate. The men behind him pushed him into the sea of swords and fire. As a result, it was burned into a flame by the living molten slurry, and then there was no soot left.

Such scenes are staged one after another. will be fifty-second soon, and Zhang Ye is fifty-three, that is, one place in front of Zhang Ye.

"I've decided to quit the Starry Sky Ancient Road. He ran away quickly. In fact, Zhang Ye didn't mean to push him at all. However, immediately the man returned. It was thrown into the sea of swords and fire by the man called Beidi like a chicken. Zhang Ye noticed that there was an unnoticed sly smile on the corner of Beidi's mouth, and it flashed away. It can be seen that Northland is a rather ruthless character.

"Ah, Northland, you brute, you can't die wellโ€”โ€”!" The man cursed resentfully, and then died, and there was no scum left.

An hour later, the person behind reminded, "It's your turn." โ€

Finally it was Zhang Ye's turn.

The moment Zhang Ye entered, he immediately summoned flames and stone life gates. He already has a plan for dealing with it, which he is now implementing.

"Uh-huh. The last person, No. 97, Beidi's eyes lit up, and he nodded again and again. Almost at the same time, the people behind Zhang Ye saw hope. Because Zhang Ye seemed to be moving forward calmly, he had a good hope of passing through this five-hundred-meter-long sword mountain and sea of fire. It must be known that the distance he has walked at most is no more than 100 meters, and Zhang Ye has walked more than 80 meters without taking ten breaths just now.

As expected, Zhang Ye passed the test in less than a minute. This undoubtedly boosted everyone's morale, and everyone became optimistic.

"If he can pass me, I can pass it!" everyone's confidence soared.

But the result is -

Dead, dead, still dead.

"How come, that fifty-third passed, obviously I did the same!"

"I don't want to die yet. โ€

"No, how is that possible!"

Zhang Ye showed a pitying look on the other side of the mountain: These people are far worse than themselves, are they really geniuses of the same level? Death is like smoke, I really feel sorry for them.

Finally, it was the turn of the last man, the Northland.

I saw that Beidi learned from Zhang Ye and used two kinds of life gates, which were also flame and stone. Passed without a hitch. He was the second to pass with Zhang Yehou.

Beidi walked over with a smile on his face and greeted Zhang Ye:

"Hehe, my name is Northland, what do you call my brother?"

Zhang Ye also smiled in return, "My name is Zhang Ye." โ€

"Please advise. โ€

"Please advise. โ€

The two shook hands, but only he knew what he thought in his heart.

If Zhang Ye hadn't seen him show his fierce appearance at that moment, he might have made friends with him in vain. But since they have been seen, they will never become good friends. At most, they are just friends on the surface. It will definitely not become the kind of old iron who sticks a knife in the ribs of his brothers.

Zhang Ye, "By the way, how did you become so famous in the Northland, I want to know." โ€

Beidi grinned, harmless to humans and animals, "That's all the people on the road, just because a patrol spirit recommended me." Ha ha. โ€

"What, what kind of patrolman?"

"Heavenly Demon Patrol, do you know?"

It was actually the recommendation of the Heavenly Demon Patrol, and it seems that this person is also the person that the Heavenly Demon fancies. The precaution in Zhang Ye's heart increased even more. But he also learned that the people and animals in the north were harmless, "Yes, that's congratulations." โ€

"Do you know what a Heavenly Demon is?"

Zhang Ye shook his head, "I don't know." "He really didn't know, he hadn't even seen what the Heavenly Demon looked like. No one talked about the Heavenly Devil either. Because there is a Heavenly Demon Patrol Restrictions.

"Let me tell you, if we say that the Yuan Shi Tianzun, the Tongtian Sect Master, and the Shangqing Jade Venerable are the three great masters, then the Heavenly Demon is the God. โ€

"Heavenly Demon, he taught at least three Space-Time Emperors. He himself is the Emperor of Time and Space. It is of the older generation, much older than the age of the three great masters. Legend has it that the three great masters all wanted to worship the Heavenly Demon as their teacher, but they all failed. However, later, the three of them all became the emperors of time and space, which is really dumbfounded. Presumably, the Heavenly Demon himself will regret it a little. โ€

"Regret, I regret something. "Suddenly there was a fluctuation in energy. Zhang Ye felt a very familiar feeling. Beidi's face was up to standard, "I'm sorry, Lord Heavenly Demon, I knew I was wrong. โ€

It's the Heavenly Demon Patrol here.

The Heavenly Demon Patrol Spirit let out a cold snort: "Hmph, what did you just say. โ€

"I said, Lord Heavenly Demon, you regret that the Third Master Venerable did not become your disciple. "Don't dare to be hazy, Northland said truthfully in a panic.

"Hmph," said another cold snort, and after half a sound, "I have no regrets at all, only they regret it." โ€

"Okay, both of you are my favorite people, I hope you work hard, my deity is waiting for you by the stone tablet. With that, the Heavenly Demon Patrol disappeared.

Bei Di said, "Brother Zhang, you are hiding so deeply." โ€

"How can there be?" Zhang Ye sneered in his heart: It's because you are very clumsy in the north, right?

"You still said no, you were also chosen by the Heavenly Demon, and you have been pretending to be with me. If the Heavenly Demon Patrol didn't appear, I really thought you wouldn't know. โ€

Zhang Ye said, "I didn't say that I didn't know the Heavenly Demon, but I didn't know what the Heavenly Demon looked like, this is a fact. โ€

"I don't want to argue with you, anyway, we are all predetermined Heavenly Demon disciples, what's so good. "North said very generously. As if he had forgiven Zhang Ye for any mistakes. Zhang Ye could only think to himself: hehe.

"By the way, can I ask you a question? Brother Zhang. Northland suddenly changed his words.

Zhang Ye said lightly, "Ask." โ€

"How old are you?"

This is about privacy, Zhang Ye did not tell Beidi, "This belongs to privacy and cannot be told." โ€

Beidi smiled, "Yes, it seems that the age should not be young." โ€

Zhang Ye couldn't deny it and didn't answer.
