Chapter Sixty-Eight: Setting Sail for the Expedition

"As for the ocean........................... I don't know the exact location, but I think it's in this Infernal Hell. Pu Tiange said slowly, his eyes deep.

Everyone else nodded, Pu Tiange's explanation was still very reasonable, if what was recorded in the codex was true, then I am afraid that the matter would be very serious.

"It seems that the owner of this codex should be the original inhabitants of this ancient city, and the people here may have become what they are today due to some accidents. Yuqing came to the window and stared at the wandering skeletons in the street.

Putiange closed the compass and put it away, this compass is not usable now, so there is no need to continue researching until he finds the ocean in the Infernal Hell.

"From the contents of the Codex, we can get some very limited clues, and by sorting these clues together, we can deduce the general outline of the whole thing. Seeing that everyone was listening attentively, Putiange continued.

"First, the Codex mentions that they were in Hell and that they wanted to return to the world, suggesting that they did not belong to the Infernal Hell in the first place, but were probably from the Great Wilderness or the Ten Kingdoms of the Northern Regions. ”

"Second, the Codex mentions many times that they brutally killed many living beings in order to achieve a certain goal, and judging from the description in the Codex, I am afraid that there are at least tens of thousands. ”

"Thirdly, their flesh and blood have rotted for some reason, but they are not completely dead, but continue to exist as the living dead, and I think those skeletons should be what they are now. ”

"Fourth, and most importantly, the natives of this ancient city, they want to return to the world, and then continue to carry out bloody slaughter and bring disaster to the world, but the owner of this codex does not want to see this, so he leaves a way to prevent them from returning to the world. ”

"And most of the books on this shelf are related to the Ten Kingdoms of the Northern Regions, so it is more likely that the aborigines of this ancient city are from the Ten Kingdoms of the Northern Regions. Pu Tiange calmly analyzed.

"Finally, we can conclude that once in the Ten Kingdoms of the Northern Regions or the Great Wilderness, the people of this ancient city slaughtered many living beings in order to achieve a certain goal, but they failed, and caused themselves to be trapped in hell, and their flesh rotted, and they could only exist in the form of skeletons, but they wanted to return to the world and continue to slaughter living beings. ”

After listening to Putiange's analysis, everyone else agreed, and the clues that can be obtained from the Codex are almost these, after all, the Codex does not explain the specific things clearly, and many places can only be speculated.

"It seems that if the aborigines of this ancient city are allowed to return to the world, I am afraid it will be a catastrophe, and we must stop this kind of thing, but we ........................ it now" Yu Qing shook his head, looking helpless.

Although Yu Qing didn't say it directly, everyone also understood that there was such a supreme existence as the Immortals in the ancient city, and they all had black lotus marks on their bodies, and as long as they dared to rebel, they would be killed immediately.

It is too difficult for them to confront it, and there is little hope.

"For today's plan, the only way to do this is to find the ocean first, step by step, and not to rush. Putiange knows the danger of this matter, and if it is not done well, it will be doomed.

Only by following the ocean and relying on the compass to find Shensha Island can there be a chance to avoid a catastrophe, but as for whether that way can be found on Shensha Island, everyone has no bottom in their hearts.

After discussing it for a long time, they finally decided not to act rashly for the time being, and when the time was ripe, they would go to the ocean to find the island of Shensha.

"Come to me, living people. The majestic and vicissitudes of life sounded in everyone's ears.

Everyone was shocked, they knew that this was the voice of the Immortal, and they didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly rushed towards that temple, now that the Immortal wants to summon them, there must be something important.

Soon, the temple was presented to everyone, still magnificent and silent, as if it had come from prehistory.

They all walked into the main hall, and then they all knelt on one knee and saluted the figure on the throne, and the figure on the throne raised his hand and motioned for everyone to get up.

"Whew!"

A black light flew towards everyone, and everyone looked at it intently, and found that it was the coffin they had brought before, but now the coffin was much smaller in size and looked very small.

"This coffin has a great secret, and although I don't know why you brought it in, you have been contaminated with cause and effect, and if you don't handle it well, disaster will befall you. ”

"I have shrunk this object so that you can carry it, and when you have left this Infernal Hell, I will send it back to your homeland, so that you can wear out the cause and effect and not be disturbed by it. ”

The vicissitudes of life and the ancient voice came out of the armor, the luster on the armor was cold, the darkness was boundless, like an ancient universe, hazy and grand, let the years come and go, but it did not waver.

After Putian Ge and a few people thanked him, he hurriedly put away the shrunken coffin, although he didn't know what the purpose of the immortal's move was, but what it said was not wrong.

Everyone is indeed contaminated with cause and effect with this coffin, and it is likely to cause some treachery at that time, which is extremely unfavorable to everyone, so only by returning it to its homeland can it avoid the appearance of treachery.

"I have an old enemy in my life, and the war between me and him has begun, and one of them will fall, so let it all end, and see who can come out of it. A cold loud voice struck, echoing in the hall, and at this moment, the eyes in the dark armor became sharp, and the aura was incomparable.

"I have summoned you today for this purpose, this is the map of the Infernal Hell, on which the distribution of forces on both sides is the distribution of the enemy. A scroll of drawings flew out of the void and landed in Putiange's hands.

"Wow!"

Putiange unfolded the map, and saw a vast mountain and river in front of everyone.

Among them, the mountains are towering, the rivers are rushing, and the landforms are all gray, as if it is a shrunken world, and the scene is magnificent and extraordinary.

In the center of the earth, there is a white line that divides the earth into two halves, one of which is densely covered with many small black dots, and the other half is densely covered with many small white dots.

The word "immortality" appeared above the earth densely covered with small black dots, and the word "eternal life" appeared above the ground densely covered with small white dots on the other side, which were two different territories and different forces.

Everyone stared at each other and found that these small points were cities and fortresses.

There are also some small place names on it.

Even among those small black dots, everyone saw the ancient city where they were located, and the word immortality was marked next to the ancient city, and above this black dot, there was a small red dot, representing Putiange himself.

This map is really amazing, it is so exquisite, I am afraid that it is difficult to refine this map if you are not a great supernatural person.

"Living people, your strength is not bad, especially you, your talent is rare. The Immortal glanced at Pu Tiange coldly and continued.

"Therefore, I have commanded you to lead a hundred men as a vanguard to raid the Heavenly Hills, and there is a treasure in the Heavenly Hills, called the Heavenly Ring, which I need you to bring back. ”

"Subordinates obey!"

Everyone said in unison, now that they have been imprinted with the Black Lotus Mark, they don't dare to act rashly at all, so in the face of the Immortals' orders, they can only do so.

"I still have to contain that old enemy now, and it is difficult to attack directly, so it is up to you to do the rest. "The Immortals' eyes are gloomy, as if they have seen through the past and the present.

There's a lot at stake, and it's likely that it's secretly fighting some unknown enemy, and it's invisible, but it's real, and it's very dangerous.

After everyone was ordered to retreat, a skeleton guard outside the temple motioned for everyone to follow it.

Led by the skeletal guard, the group came to the city gate, where there were a hundred skeletons with spears, neatly arranged in front of the gate, they had no armor on their bodies, unlike the skeleton guards.

In front of these skeletons, there stood a skeleton in black armor, the armor was angular and angular, black and bright, dark and cold, and it looked very hideous and terrifying.

The black-armored skeleton was holding a jet-black spear, and its figure stood steeply, and at first glance it was higher than those ordinary skeletons.

"Living people, I will go with you in this operation. The black-armored skeleton's voice was hoarse, and a quiet glow flickered in its hollow eyes.

"Although the Lord has asked you to lead the troops, in fact these people obey me, including you. The black-armored skeleton said again, his tone cold and ruthless.

"Understood?"

Everyone frowned for a while, it seems that this guy is not very easy to get along with, and he has a strong hostility towards everyone as soon as they meet, I am afraid that this expedition, everyone's life will not be too easy.

Seeing that everyone was silent, the body of the black-armored skeleton exuded a hideous murderous aura.

"If it weren't for the fact that you living people are still useful to the Lord, you would have been sacrificed directly to life, stripped of the vitality of life, and still alive?" the black-armored skeleton sneered as he pointed his spear at the crowd.

Yu Qing and the others were a little annoyed, but they didn't dare to attack, although they were obedient to the immortals, they could only be regarded as a few outsiders, if there was really a conflict, it was really difficult to explain.

"I advise you to focus on the overall situation and don't delay the trip. Pu Tiange was very calm, he knew that this guy would just say a few words at most, and it was impossible to do anything with them.

"Hmph........................ I don't need you to say this, I think you are still a small snack, don't die easily. The black-armored skeleton said in a hoarse voice, and there was a dark light in his eyes.

"Let's go. The black-armored skeleton turned and shouted.

With a snap, the heavy gate slowly rose, and everyone and the skeletons came out of the city.

Outside was still very barren, the gray wind and sand were sweeping, the fog was in the sky, and a round of black sun was in the sky, making this place as silent and empty as an abyss.

The crowd followed the skeletons as they walked low into the air, whistling across the gray earth and flying into the distance. The divine power used by these skeletons when they exert their divine power is very strange.

Their divine power took on a black-gray hue, like mist, enveloping their emaciated bodies, and there was also a corrosive aura, cold and eerie.

The skeletons were not slow at all, and in the blink of an eye, they flew miles away.

At a gallop, Putiange unfolded the map and watched carefully.

Located in the territory of Yongjin, Tianqiu is an unusually large sand dune, which can be said to be incredibly large, and from the topography, this Tianqiu is even higher than some mountain peaks, almost level with heaven and earth.

And there is an enemy fortress guarding there next to Tianqiu, although it is not clear how many troops are in the fortress, but only send more than a hundred people to deal with it, I think the number of people will not be too much.

Of course, it is not excluded that the enemy is extremely weak in individual strength, but in large numbers.

From the fact that the Immortal asked everyone to take the treasure in the Heavenly Mound, it can be seen that this treasure is probably only available to everyone, otherwise it is enough to let others take it directly, and everyone is still needed?

Perhaps this is where the value of the use of the people lies.

If the people are no longer useful, what will happen to them? If the immortals keep their promises, it would be fine, otherwise the people would have to wait to be sacrificed alive.

One thing that made Putiange wonder was who the enemies of these skeletons were? Judging from the map, the two realms of "Eternal Age" and "Immortal" were about the same size, and they seemed to be almost evenly matched.

And it seems that the other party should also have an existence like the Immortal.
