Standing on the edge of a stinking swamp, Wei Ziqi frowned and looked at Patchouli: "Did you find anything?"
Pache said, "These places seem to be the key nodes of this half-plane. ā
"Nodes?"
Wei Ziqi was thoughtful.
They had been away from the courtyard for a long time.
Originally, Wei Ziqi planned to bring Xiao Yi with him, but who knew that the little guy was unwilling to leave the courtyard alive or dead. Wei Ziqi had no choice but to leave with Patchouli.
"Let's get out of here first. ā
Wei Ziqi said.
The smell of this place is so terrible.
At this moment, a loud roar suddenly came from the sky.
The two subconsciously looked up, only to see ink-like black clouds surging from all directions, converging in the sky above. An inverted black tornado fell from the sky, hooking the heavens and the earth.
"What's going on?"
Wei Ziqi's eyes were uncertain.
He opened the system interface, only to find that the black tornado seemed to be in the same position as the sixth node.
Wei Ziqi thought for a moment and said decisively: "Let's go, let's go over and have a look!"
After speaking, he walked up to Pache and bent slightly with his back to her: "Quick, come up." ā
Patchouli hesitated for a moment, knowing that now was not the time to twist, pursed her lips and lay on Wei Ziqi's back.
Wei Ziqi held her legs with both hands, took a deep breath, and his figure rushed out at once, running wildly in the direction where the tornado was.
On the other side, Ichimaru and Gin, who were walking in the wilderness, also stopped.
Ichimaru Gin squinted his eyes in the direction of the tornado: "The dean should go over there, right?"
Holding Ling Tiezhai helped the glasses on the bridge of his nose: "Let's go and have a look." ā
The two of them looked at each other, and at the same time increased their speed, speeding away in that direction.
Sixteen Nightsakiya and Meng Luohan, Gengmu Kenpachi, and other people who had entered the Fengyuan ruins also converged in the same direction.
"Come on, come on, all come here. ......"
In a hidden underground chamber, a black-robed man with a bronze ghost face stood by a hexagonal pool, screaming wildly, his tone full of excitement and excitement.
In the center of the hexagonal pool, there stood a black iron cross, on which was tied a slender and delicate fair woman.
The woman hung her head, her long blue hair falling down to cover her face, and a pair of long, slender and slightly pointed ears peeking out of her hair. Seems to have fallen into a coma.
Wei Ziqi carried Pachouli on his back and ran quickly.
Pache had already found a way to fight against the enchantment confinement before, and although she couldn't let him fly, it was still okay to jump within a certain altitude. So he kept moving and leaping on the ground, and he wasn't slow.
The scene around him changed rapidly, and after a moment, Wei Ziqi stopped.
In front of you, there is a huge square.
There are many snow-white statues in the square, including a scribe with a crown and a belt, a general in military uniform, and a sage with a staff in hand. There are also dragons full of strength and beauty, sacred birds dragging beautiful feathers, and fierce white tigers.
The statue is lifelike, and there is no trace of artificial carving, but it looks like a real creature has been transformed.
Wei Ziqi put down Pache and looked at the statues.
"What is this place?"
He opened the system interface, and saw that the little red light kept flashing in the center of the square on the map.
Wei Ziqi looked up and saw that the majestic and raging black tornado was impressively located in the center of the square, spinning at high speed, as if enveloping something in it.
He opened the Eye of Truth, and the golden light in his eyes flowed to look that way.
A snow-white statue with a faint glimmer of light comes into view.
The statue is a solemn man holding a array, with sharp eyes and an extremely realistic expression.
"Dean, are you alright?"
At this time, a beautiful and clear female voice came from the side.
Wei Ziqi turned around, and saw Sixteen Nights Sakiya, dressed in a blue and white maid outfit, walking towards him, followed by Meng Luohan, who was dressed in black and had a beautiful face.
Seeing the two of them, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "I'm fine." What about you? Are you going well along the way?"
Sixteen Nights Saki walked up to Wei Ziqi and bowed slightly: "Everything is going well, I just encountered some minor troubles, but they have all been solved." ā
"Ah, is everyone already here?"
Another magnetic man's voice came, and when several people turned their heads, they saw the smiling Ichimaru Silver and the expressionless Tsuryo Tetsusai walking over.
"Dean, I've finally found you. ā
The two walked up to Wei Ziqi and stood still, and Ichimaru Silver said to Wei Ziqi with a smile.
"It's okay for everyone to be okay. ā
Wei Ziqi nodded, and a stone in his heart fell to the ground completely.
Kenpachi and Edward haven't arrived yet. However, both of them are Tianzun, even if they don't fall together, there shouldn't be any problems.
After all, judging by his experience, the place didn't seem to be as dangerous as it might be.
"Miss Meng, can you tell what is going on with this half-plane?
Wei Ziqi looked at Meng Luohan, who had a cold face, and asked.
Meng Luohan nodded: "This world has indeed been eroded by demonic energy, and it should not be able to escape from the people of the ghost gate." ā
But Patchy says the world has been eroded for a long time, and it wasn't just a matter of a few months to become what it is now. ā
Wei Ziqi frowned.
Meng Luohan's expression became slightly solemn, and he nodded and said, "Miss Patchouli is right. According to my observations, this half-plane has undergone at least a thousand years of demonic corrosion. So, I suspect there's a good chance that an extraterrestrial demon has been sealed here. ā
"What?"
Wei Ziqi was startled, and then became solemn.
He thought of what Xiao Yi said before.
"If that's the case, then I'm afraid that this seal has been loosened, and it is very likely that the Extraterrestrial Demon has slipped out, but it has not completely escaped yet. And the purpose of the people of the Ghost Gate is very likely to be to completely release this sealed extraterrestrial demon. ā
He looked at the square in front of him, "So, is this the place of seals?"
Meng Luohan carefully looked at the square and nodded: "If I'm not mistaken, this should be a forbidden place!"
"The Forbidden Land?"
Wei Ziqi looked at her suspiciously.
Meng Luohan explained: "After the war against the Outer Demons, most of the Outer Demons withdrew from the Cangxuan Continent, but a small part of them remained and hid in various parts of the Cangxuan Continent. Later, these demons were exposed one after another, and they were killed or sealed by the strong people of the human race one by one. Among them, the vast majority of those who were sealed were existences whose strength had reached the Holy Rank. And these sealed places are the forbidden lands!"
She stared at the statues with a complicated expression: "These statues should have been transformed by the predecessors who participated in the battle to seal the Outer Demons, in order to suppress the Outer Demons. ā
Wei Ziqi was taken aback. I didn't expect these statues to be made of living creatures.
Looking at these statues, there are beasts, and there are even dragons, which shows that it was indeed the common responsibility of the creatures of the Cangxuan Continent to fight against the evil demons outside the sky at the beginning.
At this time, Meng Luohan said, "If the people of the Ghost Gate really plan to release the Outer Demons here, then they will definitely find a way to destroy this place. Dean Wei, I would like to ask you to stay here for the time being and protect this forbidden place. Otherwise, once the people of the ghost gate succeed, the consequences will be unimaginable. ā
Wei Ziqi nodded: "It is incumbent." ā
A wild voice rang out.
"If you release it, you can release it, just cut it with a knife, what are you afraid of?"
When everyone heard the voice, they saw Kenpachi walking with a sword of slashing, and the snow-white feather weaving behind him fluttered slightly.
"It's not that simple. ā
Meng Luohan shook his head and said with a solemn expression: "The people of the Ghost Gate chose the forbidden place of this place, naturally there is a reason. This place is a half-plane, and it is the weakest place in the world barrier of the Cangxuan Continent. Once the sealed Outer Demons are freed, it is very likely that a passage will be opened here to connect the Endless Void, causing the Outer Demons to invade again. When the time comes, it will be the real catastrophe. ā
"So serious?"
Wei Ziqi was stunned by her.
Meng Luohan nodded.
At this time, people from many other parties also gathered one after another.
A moment later, the Heavenly Punishment Venerable Lord arrived with a gloomy face, followed by two people, and they were both embarrassed, the black robes on their bodies were tattered, and there were faint traces of blood oozing.
Meng Luohan glanced at the person punished by heaven, hesitated for a moment, and was about to go over, but was pulled by Wei Ziqi.
When she turned around, she saw Wei Ziqi shaking his head slightly at her.
On the other side, seeing the scene in the square, the Heavenly Punishment Venerable Lord's face changed, and he obviously saw what this place was for.
Seeing this, the man in black who was alone before stood up and asked, "Your Excellency, what's going on in this place?"
The Heavenly Punishment Venerable's eyes flickered, and he shook his head: "The deity doesn't know either. ā
The crowd immediately began to talk about it.
"What have you discovered?"
A handsome middle-aged man dressed in a flowing cloud pattern robe and wearing a jade crown said softly to everyone.
"I've waited all the way, and all but the ruins are the wasteland. ā
A Tianzun shook his head and said.
"The deity has encountered several palaces, but they are empty and dilapidated. ā
Another humane.
These people were talking there, but Wei Ziqi frowned.
Because by now, basically all the forces that entered this Fengyuan ruin have gathered here, but Whitebeard has never appeared.
Wei Ziqi glanced at the wilderness in the distance, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.
"Hopefully nothing will happen. ā
He muttered to himself.
At the same time, in ruins.
Whitebeard's body stood proudly on the rubble, his right hand holding a long-handled war knife, and his face was arrogant and unyielding.
"Is that all you have? There's no way to kill Lao Tzu!"
His voice is like a bell, and his momentum is majestic and heroic. (To be continued.) )
