Chapter 413: The first level, completed

The deeper the four of them went to the depths of Longshan Temple, the more ambergris incense they found.

And the strange beasts scattered here have gradually increased.

After walking forward for three whole days, everyone came to the place marked by Liu Zongxuan's little sparrow.

"It's a foreign land. Liu Zongxuan said.

They've been through so much along the way.

Not only do you have to deal with all kinds of exotic lands hiding in the shadows, but you also have to be on the lookout for enemies who are ready to sneak up on them.

It had been more than ten days since they entered the exam, and those weak or lone cultivators had not yet entered the core area of Shuanglong Mountain at this moment.

And those larger sects, or powerful teams, have already arrived here, and even passed the first level.

Ma Xie and the others came to the entrance to this abandoned exotic land, which was once called the "Lancang Realm".

In the middle of the Lancang boundary, there is a wide Yangtze River called the Lancang River.

In the Lancang River, there are many exotic beasts of the water system, and at the bottom of the Lancang River, there are countless rare treasures.

It is an ancient foreign land, and one of the first foreign lands to be conquered by practitioners.

Later, as more and more cultivators entered the Lancang Realm, the resources here were gradually consumed.

Initially, the cultivators were concentrated in the middle and lower reaches of the Lancang River, but as the resources in the middle and lower reaches were exploited and depleted, many dragon slayers began to set out to the depths of the foreign land, the upper reaches of the Lancang River.

However, in the upper reaches of the Lancang River, all the strange beasts of the Yudan Realm gathered, and many cultivators died here.

In the cultivation world, it is gradually spread that in the upper reaches of the Lancang River, there are legendary innate spiritual objects.

In order to capture these legendary innate spirit objects, a group of sects led by Kongshan Temple formed a huge army of dragon slayers.

After careful planning and thousands of years, they finally cleaned up the alien beasts in the Lancang River.

But they didn't find the slightest.

At this moment, in the Lancang realm, the resources have been exhausted, and the heavens and the earth have undergone drastic changes.

The entire Lancang River dried up in an instant, and all the spiritual energy in the earth was evaporated.

The cultivators who were in it were surprised to find that the aura in their bodies was also withdrawn, and they quickly turned into mortals, and under some mysterious power, some cultivators who did not cultivate high turned into gray-haired old men.

The cultivator who escaped from the nine deaths inside recalled afterwards that everything happened in an instant.

As for that moment, whether they started after slaughtering the last alien beast, or when they started after searching for the last spirit stone, I don't know.

This kind of thing happens all the time in many places on the mainland.

The Exotic Land is a very peculiar place, where the world and Pangea are completely different, and it is easy for such a change to occur.

When there is a drastic change in a foreign world, there will also be a drastic change in the avenue of heaven and earth there.

Sometimes, the foreign land becomes a dead silence, like the Lancang realm at this moment.

Sometimes, the foreign land will become vibrant, the aura will be abundant, the heaven and earth avenue will be extraordinarily powerful, and the whole world will become extremely strong.

Therefore, many cultivators speculate that some exotic lands will expand after the upheaval and connect with other exotic lands around them.

It's just that no one can formalize these things.

There is no pattern to the occurrence of this kind of change.

It is said that except for the Dao Realm, no one can resist this change.

The only thing that is certain is that when the foreign land undergoes a drastic change and is abandoned, all the avenues of heaven and earth inside will disappear, but from this, it will also become accessible to ordinary cultivators.

The crowd came to the entrance to the Abandoned Outlands.

But the entrance that Ma Xie saw in the sword abyss was almost the same, and this entrance was also a huge "skylight" opened in mid-air.

They could clearly see the bodies floating behind the skylights.

Wan Feifei has already been in a foreign land, and he has a wonderful feeling for this kind of thing.

Under the questioning of Ma Xie, Liu Zongxuan and Zhuge Ruzhi, Wan Feifei just said lightly: "There, in fact, it is hell." ”

Although Wan Feifei was silent about foreign things, he still couldn't stop the curiosity of the other three people.

They became dragon slayers to enter a foreign land, and now that a foreign land was in front of them, even if it was only an abandoned foreign land, how could they leave after marking the coordinates as Wan Fei suggested?

Under the leadership of Ma Xie, the two of them flew into a foreign land with Ma Xie.

Wan Feifei had no choice but to follow.

"Don't go too far from the entrance, mark the coordinates once you enter, so you don't have to come back. Wan Fei shouted from behind.

"Don't worry, senior brother, we're just going to go in and have a look. Ma Xie said.

After flying to the entrance of the Outland, a wonderful force sucked all three of them in.

Then the three of them stood in this foreign world.

It's a dead world.

No wind, no sound, no life.

It seems that the word "nothing" exists because of this.

They thought the yellow substance beneath their feet was the earth, but when they stepped on it, they realized that it was nothing more than a cloud of yellow smoke.

"The aura in the land, no, to be precise, the way of the earth has disappeared, so the land there can no longer be called 'land', but some matter after the loss of the 'way'. Wan Wei explained.

All things in heaven and earth are produced by Xuanhuang Qi, and the reason why Xuanhuang Qi evolves into all things is because of the existence of "Tao".

It is the "Tao" that gives the law of the evolution of all things.

When the Tao is lost, all things do not return to their origins, but become dead things.

The earth, the corpses, and some dust floating in the air are all one thing.

They are all the shells of the material after losing the aura, and there is no "Tao" in this world.

Ma Xie casually slashed out a sword qi towards the "ground", and this yellow substance floated.

He stretched out his hand and took the substance, but when his hand touched it, it shattered and scattered again.

They are no longer bound by the Tao, and their inner aura, that is, their power, is gone.

So these things can't withstand any force, they just float endlessly in this world.

"Let's go. Wan Feifei said.

Ma Xie nodded, although there was no danger in staying here, but such desolation and dead silence still made people very uncomfortable.

"Why do we have to mark such a wasteland?" said Zhuge Ruzhi.

"Maybe this is the Dragon Slayer Alliance reminding us that this is where our entire world ends up...... "I once heard a Dragon Slayer predecessor say that the foreign land used to be a place where we humans lived, and then the heavens and the earth went through drastic changes to become like this, and our Pangea Continent will eventually be like this. ”

Human beings know too little about the exotic land and Pangea, and all kinds of mysteries are just speculations.

The four of them turned back and came to the entrance of the foreign land.

The other three all returned to the Pangu Continent, and only Ma Xie stayed there, looking at the barren world.

"If this is the substance that has lost its 'Dao', then how is it different from the original Xuanhuang Qi?"

Xuanhuang Qi is the root of all things, and from Xuanhuang Qi, the twelve great avenues, heaven and earth and all worlds have evolved, which is the foundation of everything.

Xuanhuang Qi is born in nothingness, and "Tao" is conceived in Xuanhuang Qi.

But now that all of this has been lost, and there is nothingness here, has everything returned to its end?

That doesn't seem to be the case.

In this dead silence, there was no sign of life.

Ma Xie had once seen the Xuanhuang Qi, which was a wisp of aura with majestic vitality.

That kind of substance, Xuanhuang Qi, which was a thousand times thinner than a hair, was enough to crush a cultivator of the seventh layer of the Qi Refining Realm to death.

The material here, however, has no vitality at all, and is extremely fragile.

Ma Xie left the Lancang Realm, and these things may not be something he can know.

After marking the coordinates, everyone rushed to the examiner without stopping.

The dead and silent realm of Canglan stayed there endlessly.

A gray-haired old man sat in the deepest part of the Canglan Realm.

It was the source of the former Canglan River.

His eyes slowly opened, looking at the figure of Ma Xie leaving, thoughtfully.

On a mountain peak inside Longshan Temple, there is a middle-aged man.

Beside him, there was a huge white ball of light, which was the point exchange office of Longshan Temple.

To his right, on his right, was a teleportation array.

"Mr. Tang, let's reply to the task. Wan Feifei stepped forward.

That person's name was Tang Lingwen, and he was the examiner of the first exam.

Although he seemed to be sitting here all the time, he was extremely clear about the entire Shuanglong Mountain.

Once he finds that a candidate is cheating, then he will take action as soon as possible, saying that these candidates will be expelled from the examination room and sent back to Nantianmen.

The four of them handed over the jade, ambergris and the coordinates of the Lancang realm to Tang Lingwen.

Tang Lingwen checked them one by one and found that there was nothing unusual here, and then said, "You can exchange points." ”

Ma Xie took out his jade bi and found that the points inside had changed.

Slaughter 1,502 seventh-layer beasts in the Qi Refining Realm alone, and reward 1,502 points.

Slaughter 8 beasts of the eighth layer of the Qi Refining Realm alone, and reward 4,000 points.

Slaughter 1 beast in the early stage of the ninth layer of the Qi Refining Realm alone, and reward 5,000 points.

Team up to slaughter 5 beasts in the early stage of the ninth layer of the Qi Refining Realm, and reward 6,250 points.

Team up to slaughter 1 alien beast in the middle of the ninth layer of the Qi Refining Realm, and reward 2,500 points.

Collect 2,670 pounds of ambergris and reward 2,670 points.

Determine the coordinates of the Lancang boundary and reward 500 points.

500 points for completing the mission.

There are 340 points remaining before redemption, for a total of 23,262 points.

Looking at this long list, Ma Xie had a general understanding of the points rules for this exam.

All of his actions of killing strange beasts are stored in the jade bib.

All alien beasts killed by four people together are considered to be killed in a team, and the points are equally divided.

In this way, the first level is completely passed.
