Chapter Seventy-Five: The Demon Domain
Chapter Seventy-Five: The Demon Domain
Xi Zheng arranged the affairs of the Snow Ice Palace, and set off to the depths of the Demon Domain with a few Ice Palace generals. Among the nine islands and ten domains in the northern frontier, the demon domain can be said to be one of the most chaotic territories, and I heard that the original master of the demon domain was the heavenly demon clan. However, since the decline of the 'Eighteen Immortal Clans' of the Celestial and Human Clans, the Divine Domain has been occupied by the Heavenly Demon Clan, and since all the conditions of the Divine Domain are superior to the Demon Domain, the Demon Domain has been abandoned, and it has gradually become a chaotic territory.
The demon domain is close to the snow region, and the royal city of the golden-winged Dapeng King is in Pengcheng, the closest demon domain to the snow region, and the environment of Pengcheng is not so cold compared to the various cities in the snow region, but it seems much drier. Pengcheng is the royal city of the golden-winged Dapeng King, which is naturally built by it well, and its architectural style is similar to the desert city, but the overall structural layout is somewhat similar to that of Syracuse. The houses here are all made of sand, but the ingenuity of the builders has made Pengcheng extremely stable, and the finish does not look like a castle built in the desert.
Xi Zheng led everyone to meet the King of the Golden Wing, but was told that he was not in the Pengcheng Palace. One of his envoys informed Xi Zheng and the others that he had gone to visit his fourth brother, the Lion Camel King, and had gone to the Lion Camel King's royal city. The Lion Camel King is known as the Great Sage of Moving Mountains, and his royal city is called "Stone City", and the Stone City is far away from Pengcheng, one south and one north. Among them, it is necessary to pass through many cities and countless levels in the Northern Demon Domain, especially through the terrifying "Sand City".
Xizheng had no choice but to take everyone to say goodbye to the steward of the Golden-winged Dapeng King, and immediately marched towards Shicheng. With the efforts of everyone, they arrived at Shacheng in a few days.
Shacheng is located in the middle of a road between Pengcheng and Shicheng. The sand city has been abandoned for a long time, and no one dares to stay in it. It's like a ghost town. With its dilapidated walls and houses, it is almost impossible to find a good piece of land.
Nozomi watched the crowd run around for days. I was very tired, so I decided to rest in this sand city. With Yan Qian, the Venerable of the Seven Souls Venerable, Xi Zheng and the others would not worry that this dilapidated ghost town could pose a threat to everyone.
"Everyone, be careful, quicksand. In the middle of the night, Yan Qian shouted to wake everyone up.
I saw that the entire sand city was annihilated by quicksand for a while, and the ruins of the castle were exposed for a while. The quicksand kept disappearing, floating and sinking, and then the whole space was the same, and Xizheng and everyone had to take off in the air. Take precautions.
After a few hours, the shaking quicksand began to fall silent. A large number of ruins of the foundation of the wall are exposed, the houses are arranged neatly and clearly, with an area of tens of thousands of square meters, and there is a wide castle foundation on the periphery. There are beacon piers on the wall every dozens of miles, and there are more than a dozen beacons nearby.
Xizheng guessed that this sand city must have been a former ancient fortress, and there was plenty of water near it, and traces of water could still be seen in the moat outside the city. In the past, it must have been an oasis basin. Many people recuperate here. However, now the sediment is blown and carried by strong winds, forming ridges of sand, and the ancient city is gradually destroyed by water and buried in sand.
"Could it be that this is the legendary 'Devil's City'?" Yan Qian watched the change in the scenery in front of her. Said in surprise.
"Devil's Town?"
"Yes, the legend says, the battlefield of the battle of immortals and demons. A tragic battle of immortals and demons. Let countless immortals and demons be buried here, after the immortal and demon war. The Devil's City was soaked in the blood of tens of millions of immortals and demons for a full thirty-six years before it dried up. From then on, the city was no longer inhabited. Yan Qian talked about the things recorded in the legend.
"I've heard that, too. I heard that the Devil's City has gone through the decades after the battle of immortals and demons. When the wind blows, all kinds of strange noises will be made, and all kinds of strange things will happen. A deputy brought by Yan Qian also said.
"Go in and have a look?" asked Nozomi curiously.
"This ......," the deputy shuddered.
"It's okay, we just need to be vigilant, and if there is danger, we will withdraw immediately. Nozomi said.
"Okay. "Yan Qian is strong and bold.
Walking forward for a while, there is not a single grass or tree in sight, there is a sea of black gravel and sand everywhere, yellow clay statues, and various shapes are vivid under the blue sky. After a palace-like house, a trail appeared in front, the trail stretched for dozens of miles, and stopped under a large peak, the big peak looked at each other from a large river and the opposite peak, and the two mountains were full of smoke, like a fairy dwelling.
"Stop. Yan Qian saw the scene in front of her and stopped everyone.
"What's wrong?" asked Nozomi.
"Look at these two mountains, is there anything special?" Yan Qian asked.
"It's nothing, it's just that the two mountains are fan-shaped, and they seem to be very symmetrical, and the two mountains are symmetrical with the big river in the middle. Xi Zheng looked at it carefully and said.
"Yes. In the records, this mountain is called Mt. Kamiha, and it is said that it is the place where the blue birds of the Divine Bird clan live. The blue bird was rumored to have been subdued by the Queen Mother of the West in Central Xinjiang, and then it was closed here, and no one knew what was going on inside. You see, these two mountains don't look like a pair of outstretched wings. Yan Qian explained.
"Shenba Mountain?"
"Yes, legend has it that the gods and spirits in the Shenyu Mountain are haunted all year round, and the danger is abnormal, and since the Blue Bird Clan left, ordinary people have not been able to get close. People say it's a magical land, and you can't enter it. Yan Qian continued.
"Then let's take a break. Nozomi commanded the crowd that he could not ignore their lives and deaths.
"I smell something good in there? it's the breath we need. At this moment, the nine-colored nine-leaf lotus, who had a super sensitive nose, suddenly said to Xi Zheng.
"Didn't you say that there was no more of what we needed in the entire Desolate Spirit Star Domain?" Xi Zheng was speechless for a while, it seems that the powerful Nine-Colored Nine-Leaf Lotus also has times when it is unreliable.
"I didn't say no, I just said that I couldn't feel it, and there were many reasons why I couldn't feel it, such as being taken by others first, being shielded by natural environmental protection, and so on. The nine-colored nine-leaf lotus said dissatisfiedly.
"Well, whatever you say, it looks like you're leaving to look for treasures again?" Nozomi said.
"No, there are two powerful forces fighting inside, and it is impossible for me to succeed alone. Therefore I need your help. Nine-colored nine-leaf lotus said.
"How strong is it?" asked Nozomi.
"The strongest is around the first rank of the Emperor Realm. The nine-colored nine-leaf lotus said solemnly. He and Xi Zheng are both in the realm of the Six Souls King, and they are not opponents of the Emperor Realm characters at all.
"Okay, go in and have a look. "Xizheng is also unwilling to lose this good opportunity.
"City Lord Yanqian, I want to go in and take a walk. Nozomi said.
"Huh?" Yan Qian asked puzzled for a moment.
"Stay here and rest, but be vigilant. I'll go in and see it myself. Nozomi said to everyone.
"Your Royal Highness the Regent, you are the leader of this time, how can you act alone and risk danger. Besides, we have important business to do. Yan Qian said. Her tone was a little unhappy, she was worried about the situation in the snowy region.
"I'm just going to go in and have a look, and it's going to be fine. Nozomi said.
"Otherwise, let's go in together. Yan Qian said.
"Whatever. Nozomi replied and walked straight ahead.
The crowd hurriedly followed behind Xizheng.
"I'm one step ahead. After walking forward for a long time, the nine-colored nine-leaf lotus suddenly said to Xi Zheng, and at the same time, the porcelain doll-like incarnation jumped out of Xi Zheng's body and disappeared like a meteor.
"What is this?" Yan Qian and the generals who brought it were dumbfounded.
"This is my doppelganger, go to the front to explore the way first, you don't need to panic. Nozomi said embarrassedly.
"Is it a doppelganger?
"Ahem, that's just my disguise. Xi Zheng reluctantly explained.
"Oh. It dawned on everyone.
"Everyone be careful ahead, there are two forces fighting, let's wait and see what happens. Take a look at the situation before you think about what to do next. Xi Zheng told everyone the information that the Nine-Colored Nine-Leaf Lotus had told him to be vigilant. Prepare them ahead of time.
The crowd had walked cautiously for a while, when suddenly there was a violent fight and collision in front of them. The momentum is so powerful that you can see the smoke and dust in the sky from afar.
Looking closely, there are two major forces competing directly in front of here. One of them is the former Demon Domain Dominator Heavenly Demon Clan, the Heavenly Demon Clan has not appeared in other territories for many years, I didn't expect to be able to meet it here. There was only one on the other side, and it was a rock demon whose strength had reached the intermediate level of the Emperor Realm. It seems that the people fighting here are a group of clan kings of the Heavenly Demon Clan, and their strength is at the peak realm of the Seven Souls Spirit Venerable. The besieged rock demons are pure elemental earth demons. The rock demon is an enemy, although the strength is strong, but in the face of the siege of everyone, it gradually loses its support and falls behind.
The place where the fight took place was a mountain col, and the kings of the Heavenly Demon Clan had forced the rock demons into the mountain col. The rock demon had already suffered a lot of scars all over his body, and he was bleeding nonstop, but he was holding on. (To be continued......)
