Chapter 166: The Civilization of Enigma
Lu Liang subconsciously glanced in the direction of the swarthy young man, saw that the other party did not react, forcibly suppressed the doubts in his heart, and prepared to start a meeting.
At this time, a thin and long-bearded old man in the middle of the head said softly: "Everyone is here, let's start! By the way, we also welcome Lu Liang Xiaoyou to join our camp." Let's introduce ourselves to the following talents. ”
Huang Fugang introduced himself before, so it goes without saying. Duan Xiaofang, who had sent a message to Lu Liang, was the first to get up to salute, followed by a strong man from Haofang Domain, named Zhu Neng. There is also a lazy young man sitting with him, named Zhao Yucheng, who looks sleepy-eyed and has the demeanor of an old white.
In the end, there was the dark-faced man, who simply clenched his fists, spat out a few words, and immediately sat down. But what surprised Lu Liang the most was precisely him, just because he was from the ghost world, and his name was "酆飍".
The surname "Xu", Lu Liang is no stranger, recalling his familiarity with him, he also has some knowledge in his heart, it seems that among the reinforcements from the ghost world, there is indeed a family of Xu. Lu Liang also took care of the words he had warned him before, but he also wanted to find out the truth by himself.
After that, the nine powers of the Immortal Alliance presided over the meeting, and there was only one topic, selecting the people who were qualified to enter the mysterious civilization ruins in three months.
Some of Lu Liang understood, and some of them were in the clouds, but he also remembered what the Sword Fu Ancestor had said before, and if he didn't understand it, he would talk about it later.
The part I can understand is that I have to find ten people to enter the ruins after three months. These ten candidates are either jointly recommended by others, or selected by qualifications, anyway, it is impossible for ordinary mediocre talents to enter.
Regarding the candidates for joint recommendation, Lu Liang is among them, as well as Yu Biao and the lazy young man, and the other few people were not recommended, but they all had a very natural look on their faces, and they seemed to have known that this was the result.
The whole meeting ended in Lu Liang's paradox, and after that, he politely declined Duan Xiaofang and Huang Fugang's kind invitation, saying that he had just arrived, and he had to go to meet his master and several old friends, and he would definitely take the initiative to visit him in the future.
Subsequently, a group of six people came to Lu Liang's cave mansion, and after a while, the ancestor of the sword talisman came in person, and after setting up a layer of prohibition at the door, he began to solve everyone's doubts.
"Five years ago, the ruins of the mysterious civilization appeared, and we and the Netherworld sent people to investigate. It turned out that the ruins had a mysterious forbidden law in them, and no matter what, a maximum of twenty people could enter the ruins at a time, and they could only stay in it for a maximum of one year, after which they would be unconditionally teleported out and no longer able to enter the ruins. ”
"We fought over the number of people who entered, and it was only after countless dead and wounded that we discovered the wonder and horror of this ruin. There are not only powerful and powerful strange things such as giant cannons, but also terrifying monsters that can make the masters of the Great Luo Golden Immortal Stage disappear in an instant. ”
"According to those who were lucky enough to come out alive, it was full of unknown giant creatures, and although they could not speak, and some of them seemed to be unenlightened, they all had unrivaled terrifying abilities in any case. Any magic weapon and trick are vulnerable in front of them, even if they escape, it depends on the mood of others. ”
"In the end, we reached an agreement with the Netherworld that every other year, we would send ten people each, and what we could get depends on our respective chances. I entered the first year after the agreement, and only four of the ten people at that time came out alive, and the others have completely fallen into the ruins for various reasons. ”
"But our harvest is also quite rich, the four giant cannons on the other side of the Jibo Domain Teleportation Array are the ones we found from an ancient cave mansion. Its power was beyond our imagination, and due to the limited time, we only got the four doors that time, and the other party also got four doors. In the ensuing war, both sides threw the cannon into battle, and the number of casualties on both sides doubled from then on. ”
"After that, we realized the importance of this ruin, and it is likely that there is a powerful presence in it that can determine the outcome of the entire battle. In the subsequent explorations between the two sides, there were very few cases of fighting with each other, and everyone spent their energy on searching for treasures. ”
"Later, we found out that there were people who could stay in it for more than a year without being teleported out and not taking up a quota of twenty people, and the reason for all this seems to be that this person has eaten an unknown fruit. It's just rumored that the man died at the hands of the ruin beasts, and we still don't know the mystery. ”
"I have here a map of the periphery of the ruins that have been constructed by the people who have entered it, and I am ashamed to say that the deepest area we can probe is the perimeter. Now you're all coming and seeing. "The Sword Talisman Ancestor unfolded a scroll with several circles and patterns of different colors on it.
The Sword Fu Ancestor pointed to the outermost layer of the ring and said softly: "This is the outermost part of the first entry, but it is a lush land, towering giant trees can be seen everywhere, and those terrifying giant beasts often appear here. This outermost circle, we have already explored, there should be nothing worth further studying. But remember, during the outermost circle, you must completely isolate your breath until you get out of this area!"
Lu Liang was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Master, that means that we can't fly, we can only walk?What if we run into someone from the Netherworld? Also, how do you know that we are out of the outermost circle?"
The Sword Fu Ancestor pointed to a dark area close to the outermost circle and said, "After that lush land, it is a lofty mountain, and when you get there, you will be able to break away." Don't worry, even if they encounter people in the Netherworld, they don't dare to show their breath. Because that would attract the behemoth, it is very likely that the team will be destroyed at that time. ”
Subsequently, the Sword Fu Ancestor explained some details to everyone. The final area that the enemy and the enemy have explored so far is this mountain, and those giant cannons were also found in the abandoned cave in the mountains.
In principle, the task of Lu Liang and the others is also to explore this mountainous area, after all, this place is too big, and the exploration in the previous few years has only touched a drop in the bucket.
There is also an important problem, although there is a tacit understanding between the enemy and us not to fight inside, after all, there are no treaty restrictions, and both sides enter from the same entrance, even in the mountains, the distance is not too far, so it is also a top priority to guard against each other's sneak attacks at all times.
Regarding the things in the mysterious civilization, everyone has learned in detail, and the central idea is to find treasures similar to giant cannons as much as possible while avoiding danger, and the time is in principle one year.
"Master, it seems that I and the two talents are directly counted in the team, so how did the other seven teammates come about?" Lu Liang asked the question he was most concerned about.
The Sword Talisman Ancestor glanced at the remaining five people, and then said softly, "In two months, it will be the qualification examination school to enter the ruins." As long as you can pass the three major levels laid by the Immortal League, you can get the qualification to enter. ”
After the Sword Fu Ancestor finished speaking, he also took his leave. The remaining six Lu Liang began to discuss who would compete for the qualifications.
Liu Jiahao and Liu Jiawen, as well as Zheng Xuan, had no accident and strongly requested to participate, the reason is very simple, they came to help Lu Liang, and now that Lu Liang has gone, there is no reason for them not to go.
Yang Ying thought about it for a while and decided to participate. Wen Ying thought about it, but gave up for the time being, although her cultivation was also the Great Perfection of the Great Luo Golden Immortal Period, but it was only a short time after she arrived at this realm, and she was not completely stable, so it was better to cultivate well during this time.
After everything was determined, everyone also began their own cultivation, and agreed to see each other in two months.
But before Lu Liang retreated, he still had to understand some things on his mind, so he went to see the Sword Fu Ancestor alone.
"I know why you have come, and I am thinking about how to tell you, since you have come, let me go with me to meet the old man here. Sword Fu Ancestor said as he flew to the west with Lu Liang.
The building complex on the west side of the station is obviously different from other places, the shape is a little weird, and it exudes a strong demonic aura, no need to ask, this is to the demon clan station.
Before Lu Liang landed, he heard Zhu Yan's familiar voice below: "Haha, I knew you would definitely come here, good brother, let's meet again!"
Lu Liang fixed his eyes and saw that except for Zhu Yan, the other three Holy Emperors were there, and among the attendants behind them, Xiao Yun, Xiao Cui, Zhang Hao, and the Blue-eyed Giant Tiger, these friends that Lu Liang was familiar with, were also among them.
Especially the blue-eyed giant tiger, although the incarnation is a giant man with a height of nearly three feet, as soon as he saw Lu Liang, he turned back into the prototype with teary eyes, and pounced on him, not to mention how excited he was.
"Haha, old man, these years have not been seen, you have returned to the middle stage of the void!Oh, no, it is the middle stage of the demon handsome, congratulations!" Lu Liang was happy from the bottom of his heart.
"Whew, master, I know all your news, it's really amazing! It's a pity that compared to you, my upgrade speed is too slow. However, according to the White Tiger Holy Emperor, when I reach the Demon Immortal and my natural skills are fully awakened, I can return to you to help!" The giant tiger's eyes flashed with a look of determination.
Subsequently, Lu Liang also met the four Demon Emperors and other familiar people, and he was also grateful from the bottom of his heart for being able to come to help.
During this period, there was also news that surprised him, that is, Zhu Yan volunteered to participate in the qualification competition two months later, the purpose was to accompany Lu Liang to explore the ruins together.
After leaving the Demon Clan's residence, the Sword Fu Ancestor didn't take him anywhere else, but instead sighed and said with mixed emotions: "I know, you must want to know about those friends in the Sword Fu Immortal Palace, as well as your sister Lu Xinyun. But what I'm going to say next, you have to be mentally prepared, because you may not see them in a short period of time. ”
Lu Liang "chuckled" in his heart, it was definitely not a pleasant thing to let his master say this, and nodded solemnly at the moment.
Sword Fu Ancestor let out a long sigh and said softly, "Zhao Tianding has completely disappeared since the Blood God Sect was also subsumed into the coalition army, and he has not been seen until now. Your sister, who was seriously injured a hundred years ago, is still in the Xuannumen Gate to recover, and it is said that she will have to recover for nearly a hundred years. And the reason for all this is because a person snatched the Xuannu Gate treasure "Heavenly Charm Canon", and your sister was caught off guard and was injured by the other party, resulting in damage to the qi veins and retrograde exercises, so there is the current ending. ”
Lu Liang's eyes widened at that time, and he almost gritted his teeth and said: "Xin Yun is the personal disciple of the predecessor of the Xuannu Fairy in the Xuannu Gate, who has such a great ability, not only stealing the treasure book, but also seriously injuring Xinyun......!"
Lu Liang's heart suddenly tightened inexplicably, and he vaguely guessed something......
The Sword Fu Ancestor looked bitter and said in a deep voice: "We have all looked away, that person is not only familiar to you, but also very familiar, it is Zhang Ran in your 'Houshan Trio'!"
