The first day had been more difficult than expected, day and night, and sometimes the footsteps of skeletons could be heard wandering outside.

But there is no danger, at most the environment is very harsh, and it is relatively gloomy, and everyone is very idle here, and it is much more peaceful than the days of running around and working in the past.

It's just that this place is filled with a very thick dead qi, which is extremely unfavorable to everyone's cultivation, so almost no one is willing to cultivate during this time, and at most they occasionally cultivate for an hour or two.

Although everyone has surrendered to the Immortals, the scope of their activities is limited to the ancient city, and they cannot leave the ancient city without permission.

The ancient city was so decayed and dilapidated that no one wanted to wander around in such a place, so except for Putiange who went out to explore the terrain of the ancient city, everyone else spent most of their time in their houses.

Three days have passed in a blink of an eye, and Putiange has figured out the general topography of this ancient city, and I have to say that this place is really very big, majestic, and magnificent.

Although the general terrain was figured out, Putiange did not make any special discoveries.

Putiange came to the second floor of the house, and he remembered that there was a study here, and the bookshelves in it were still very intact, and there were rows of books on the shelves, which had not rotted.

It's amazing how books can survive after all these years.

Pu Tiange pushed open the wooden door of the study and walked to the bookshelf, which was very large, with a total of ten floors above and below, each floor had a row of books, and the entire bookshelf was almost full.

The shelves are very old, and the books on them are the same, but they are still very intact and have not fallen apart because of decay.

Pu Tiange took a cursory look and found that the books on this bookshelf were really all-encompassing in astronomy and geography, including miscellaneous, broad and profound, and the knowledge on them was as deep as the sea.

Obviously, the former owner of this house should have been a very knowledgeable person who knew a lot.

However, there is one thing that surprises Putiange, many of the books here are related to the Ten Kingdoms of the Northern Regions, you must know that this is an Infernal Hell, can it be said that this ancient city has any connection with the Ten Kingdoms of the Northern Regions?

What the hell is going on, or is it that the people of this ancient city were once from the Ten Kingdoms of the Northern Regions?

Pu Tiange picked up an ancient book casually, opened it and looked at it, due to the age, the pages were yellowed, but he could still see the characters clearly.

There are many methods of stargazing recorded in this ancient book, which are very detailed, including the star map of Zhou Tian, the heart of the phantom star, and the measuring ruler of the galaxy, etc., many of which are stargazing with the help of external objects.

Every method of stargazing is ancient, and it may have been lost by now, and the words in the book are from the time of endless years.

Pu Tiange put the book back on the shelf, and then selected a few more books to read one after another.

Without exception, many of the things recorded in these books are related to the Ten Kingdoms of the Northern Regions, and although the text on them does not indicate which of the Ten Kingdoms of the Northern Regions it belongs to, it can at least be determined to be the ancient text of the Ten Kingdoms of the Northern Regions.

"Forget it, I still don't have a clue. Putiange muttered to himself, he shook his head, put the ancient book in his hand back on the shelf, and then turned to leave.

However, when he turned around, he noticed that there was a wooden cabinet on the opposite side of the bookshelf, and this study had a table and chairs, but the wooden cabinet was abruptly arranged.

This wooden cabinet, which is more than half a man tall and a few feet wide, is placed on the other side of the door, opposite the bookshelf, and is placed in a position that is neither neat nor regular, and is different from the order in which the wooden cabinets in other rooms are placed.

"Click..............."

Pu Tiange gently opened the wooden cabinet, and a heavy bad air gushed out, making the place gray, and when this bad air dissipated, Pu Tiange stared.

The wooden cabinet was covered with dust, and there were several decaying antiquities inside, and Pu Tiange picked up these antiquities separately and examined them carefully, but he didn't find anything special.

"Huh?"

Just as Pu Tiange put these antiquities back into the wooden cabinet, he found that the bottom end of the wooden cabinet was a little loose, revealing a small gap, and it seemed that the bottom was empty.

"Squeak ........."

Pu Tiange slammed it hard, lifting the wooden board at the bottom of the wooden cabinet, revealing a black ancient book.

"There is even a mezzanine?" Pu Tiange was surprised, he carefully picked up this very shabby ancient book, then shook off the dust on it, and looked at it carefully.

"Come here, you guys. Putiange said to the others.

Hearing Pu Tiange's call, Yu Qing and several people in other rooms hurriedly rushed over, they didn't know what was going on, so they asked a little puzzled.

"What's wrong?"

"Look at this. ”

Pu Tiange brought this black ancient book to everyone, and then told how he found this ancient book.

In the eyes of everyone, this ancient book looks only a thin layer, and it is very small, and the skin of the ancient book is printed with some mysterious symbols, which is jerky and difficult to understand.

"What is written on it, why is this thing hidden in the mezzanine?" Yu Qing and the others couldn't understand the words on this ancient book, and they were very puzzled.

"Hmm............ This should be a codex, using the ancient script of the Ten Kingdoms of the Northern Regions, and it should record the ............... of the owner of this codex" Pu Tiange opened the codex, and his expression gradually became solemn.

"If you can read it, translate it for us, it doesn't seem that simple, otherwise it wouldn't be hidden. Yu Qing said in a deep voice.

Pu Tiange nodded, turned to the first page of the Codex, and translated it for everyone.

"I know I'm guilty, but we're going to succeed soon, and I don't think I can resist that temptation. ”

"It's been a long way and it's been a long way, but now it's only one step away, and I can't give up, and I can't turn back, so I can only make a desperate bet. ”

"Is it worth it all the roads paved with blood, the earth with corpses and bones, or is it an inevitable fate? ”

"I could feel the trembling of all the spirits in the world, prostrate, terrified, and finally vanished, and I was glad that I would not be like them, would not die like them. ”

"Everyone here thought that we had escaped death, but unfortunately the punishment came quickly, and everything we pursued made us pay a terrible price. ”

"I vaguely remember the ocean of blood, the sin, irreparable, we didn't care about it at that time, we were blinded and swallowed by obsession. ”

"Is this the price of being in hell at the moment when we think we have succeeded, and we will never be able to transcend it? ”

"Our bodies are starting to rot, our flesh is falling off little by little, are we dead? No, we are still alive, watching our bodies slowly decay, like a living dead. ”

"Our fate is much worse than that of the creatures we have killed, they are at least freed, and we will wander forever in this hell. ”

"Maybe that's the end we deserve, aren't we?"

"But I really want to see the blue sky, the white clouds, the grass and trees, and everything that once was, but unfortunately this can only be just a thought, I still have to accept the fate I deserve. ”

"My mind is a little confused, and the flesh on my body is almost rotten. ”

"I know that other people besides me are not reconciled, they still want to pursue that unattainable obsession, they have not given up, and one day they will return to the world. ”

"With their disregard for life, they will once again bring nightmarish disasters to the world, and who will stop them?

"No, I don't want this to happen again, I have to stop it. ”

"I don't know who will see what I've written, maybe ever, but I just hope that if anyone does see what I'm saying, then remember. ”

"On the bookshelf in this room, in the seventh book in the fifth row, there is a compass that I left behind, which can lead you to a small island called Sinking Sand on the ocean of hell. ”

"On this island, there is a way to keep them in hell forever. ”

"I don't know why I'm writing this, maybe nobody really gets here, no one can see it, but I have a glimmer of hope that it will all end here. ”

"I'm starting to get sane, so I'll leave it here. ”

Pu Tiange's words fell, and he slowly closed the codex, the contents of this codex really shocked everyone, and it was hard to imagine what had happened.

The atmosphere was a little silent for a while, and everyone fell silent, carefully recalling the contents of the codex, and the expressions on everyone's faces were heavy and melancholy.

"Is this true or fake? The skeletons wandering outside, could it be that their flesh and blood are not the way they look?" After being silent for a long time, Yu Fengqi finally broke the silent atmosphere.

"There's a way to prove it. ”

As he spoke, Pu Tiange came to the bookshelf and took out the seventh book from the fifth row, which was a very heavy ancient book, and it could be seen from the written that it was a book about sacrifices.

As Pu Tiange expected, he found a pitch-black compass between the pages of this ancient book, this compass was small, although it was old, but it exuded a cold luster, and it did not look extraordinary.

"Pop ........................"

Pu Tiange opened the compass, and the others hurriedly came to the front to take a look, only to see that the compass was pitch black, covered by wisps of black light, and nothing could be seen.

"Well, why don't you even have a pointer? It's so dark, it can't be a lie, right?"

Everyone else wondered if the compass did exist, and it matched what was written in the Codex, but why did it look like this?

Could it be that everything recorded in the Codex is false?

With a buzz, Putian Ge urged the divine power, and one after another divine light gushed out, exerting it on the compass, wanting to break through the layer of black brilliance in the compass.

In an instant, Putian Ge's divine power was shattered, and his arms were all shattered, and blood flowed.

"Heavenly Song!"

Yu Qing and the others were taken aback and exclaimed.

"I'm fine, it seems that this compass has been banned and cannot be broken with brute force. Putiange motioned for everyone not to worry, and then continued.

"The Codex is not fake, I don't think anyone would want to play tricks in this Infernal Hell, and it won't do him any good to do so. ”

"But why doesn't this compass work? Could it be that he was really delirious, so he wrote a bunch of crazy words. Yu Shixin questioned, he didn't quite believe that this kind of thing was true.

"Probably not. ”

"It is mentioned in the Codex that the compass must be on the ocean of hell to guide the way, so in other places the compass should not be usable. Putiange explained.

"You mean this compass can only be used on the ocean of hell?" Yuqing muttered.

"That's right, hell should refer to the Infernal Hell, as for the ocean............"
