Chapter 81: The Forbidden Land Exploration Begins
[Congratulations to Yanzhi for receiving the certificate today, and from now on with his beloved, congratulations. 】
This time, the exploration of the forbidden land was mainly based on the twenty-nine inner island sects and the divine envoys of the temple, and after receiving the order issued by Ming Shao, any scattered cultivation belonging to the two cities of gloom and ecstasy was not allowed to participate.
This order had been issued two days earlier, and it had set off a storm in Gloomy City. Some of the casual cultivators who were eager to enter the forbidden land to try their luck took the initiative to leave Gloomy City and join the group of scattered cultivators with the largest number of people, and Ming Shao and the others did not explain the reason, and they did not control the departure of this part of the people.
In addition to the Nine Tribulation powerhouses who led the team, each Inner Island Sect also had thirty members of the middle and peak of the Yuan Infant, and there were a total of eight Divine Envoys of the Temple, all of whom were cultivating at the first and second levels of the Nine Tribulations.
They had already found out that the entrance to the forbidden land had been set up by the four evildoers to set up a powerful killing array, and without the token issued by the four evildoers, even if it was the Nine Tribulations realm, they would not be able to break through the formation at all. Therefore, the entry fee of ten Blood Essence Stones per person for the expedition, no one has spoken out to protest, because even the divine envoys have no dispute.
From beginning to end, none of the divine envoys took the initiative to contact Meng Yang, Meng Yang knew very well that these divine envoys were entrusted by the Divine Monarch, naturally hoping that they would find the treasures in the forbidden land, from this point of view, the Divine Monarch was still wary of Meng Yang, and was even more worried that Meng Yang would unite with the four evildoers, after all, this place was beyond his control.
It stands to reason that the vast array of clouds and smoke, the demonic qi is vertical and horizontal, the poisonous miasma is pervasive, and the cultivation of the divine consciousness is all hindered in it, and no one can enter the soul holding pill without the special elixir that protects the divine soul and the body.
Meng Yang knew that these people all had the "Soul Holding Pill" on their bodies, and this kind of elixir was only available in the Divine Temple, to be precise, it had always been in the hands of the Divine Monarch. This kind of soul-holding pill is a Xuan-level elixir, and with Meng Yang's cognition, even if these sects on the inner island have an alchemy room, an alchemist and a pill formula, they will not be able to refine it successfully.
At this moment, Meng Yang couldn't help but think about the time when he first knew little, but unfortunately, there were no psychics in the Magic Light Islands.
However, in the pills that the Divine Monarch handed over to him, in addition to the ones that Meng Yang wanted to get the most, including the "Demon Transformation Pill" and "Quenching Demon Pill", there were several pills that could help Gou San and others advance their cultivation and maintain their daily cultivation, as well as the Soul Holding Pill, the Yuan Demon Pill, and so on.
The Yuan Demon Pill is a ground-level pill similar to the Dun Immortal Pill, and it is a special pill for Demon Cultivation, Meng Yang didn't know where the elder of the Fire Fox Sect had collected all the elixirs and refining materials, but he cheapened him for nothing, he compared the Yuan Demon Pill Pill given to him by the Divine Monarch with the two that he had obtained before, and found that there was no difference, so he was sure that the Pill he got before was the real formula.
In the past two days, Meng Yang used the Tiger Heart Furnace in the ban, and used the Nether Ghost Fire Alchemy Pill for the first time, but he failed one after another.
He constantly adjusted the alchemy technique, adjusted the heat, and started refining from the most common "Demon Raising Pill", "Generating Demon Pill", and "Turning Demon Pill", and slowly mastered the characteristics of the Netherworld Ghost Fire, and then began to refine the Soul Holding Pill. On the last day, after failing seven times in a row, he finally succeeded in refining nine high-grade Yuan Demon Pills, and the materials were also consumed.
Meng Yang knew very well that the reason why he couldn't refine the top-grade Yuan Demon Pill was because the materials collected by the Fire Fox Sect elder were not of sufficient grade. However, Meng Yang was still very happy to get the Nine Yuan Demon Pills, and in this way, he had the opportunity to make some attempts.
The Soul Holding Pill is a Xuan-level elixir, if the medicinal power of the lower-grade Soul Holding Pill can only last for one day, if it is an expedition for a month, then a monk must prepare at least thirty pills.
If it is a medium-grade soul holding pill, the medicinal power can last for three days, and the top-grade can last for ten days, but Meng Yang only has a little deviation in the middle of the first furnace, refining it into a top-grade, and the rest of the furnaces are all superb.
A pill of the best soul-holding pill can last for thirty days, that is to say, only one pill needs to be taken, and you can stay in the forbidden land for a month.
In fact, Ming Shao knew very well that many of the people who participated in the exploration this time were seriously short of Soul Holding Pills, so they could only reduce the number of people entering the forbidden land. Obviously, the Soul Holding Pill on those divine envoys is sufficient, and the people of these sects are very much in need of the Soul Holding Pill.
Major General Ming summoned the leader of the divine envoy and the twenty-nine sect leaders to the stone building, and in addition to asking them for the cost of entering the forbidden land, he also sold them the high-grade soul holding pill.
Each top-grade soul-holding pill is priced at ten medium-grade blood essence stones.
Such a high price still failed to extinguish the enthusiasm of these team leaders, and soon ten bottles of high-grade Soul Holding Pills were sold out, and there were thirty Soul Holding Pills in each bottle. Obviously, Ming Shao took out the top-grade Soul Holding Pill to surprise the leader of the Divine Envoy, although he didn't buy it, but he was clearly suspicious.
Meng Yang's purpose is very clear, that is, to introduce these divine messengers and divine envoys with soul detention orders into the forbidden land.
Before the Great Array of Clouds and Smoke was lifted, the people in the formation could not attract the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, and could only use their own skills, unable to use their divine sense, and their vision was greatly hindered.
Even if he has the soul refining technique, if he hadn't used the Clear Eyes Pill to refine his eyes, he still wouldn't be able to see the distance.
Moreover, there must be countless demonic beasts and poisonous insects hidden in the middle of this forbidden land, which are far more dangerous than the large array of demonic heaven, this is Meng Yang's first feeling.
He knew very well that in order to complete the mission of the temple, these gods and envoys would fight each other once they entered the forbidden land, and they would fight endlessly in order to take away the treasures. He decided to enter alone, not only to kill some of the people who entered the forbidden land, but also to avoid them to find the life card fragments or other treasures left by the demon god, and to find a way to make a few divine envoys and divine messengers become fish that slipped through the net, so as to bring some benefits to the god monarch back.
If these people are wiped out now, I am afraid that the Divine Monarch will definitely have a huge suspicion of him!
He vaguely felt that after so many years of exploration in the forbidden land, the Divine Monarch had already figured out how to let these divine envoys maximize the use and recovery of their strength in the forbidden land, and at least they would give the temple envoys some secret magic weapons, and it was impossible for them to be unprepared.
Although they had already made a bloody alliance, the Divine Monarch would definitely want to find the treasures in the forbidden land with his many men, and would not think of sharing them with him. There is no doubt about it, and it is precisely this that Monyan wants to take advantage of.
According to the description of the four of Ming Shao, they also secretly entered the forbidden land, but they failed to find the location of the array eye, let alone sense the existence of the demon god treasure, so Meng Yang had to spend a lot of time looking for the array eye.
Fortunately, the area of this vast array of clouds and smoke is only one-tenth of that of the Demon Heaven, and it is only a thousand miles in radius, Meng Yang is sure that he can find the location of the formation eye within a month, and he feels that if the Demon God's life card fragment exists, it will definitely be in the array eye.
Meng Yang also discovered an abnormal situation, when he entered the Blood Sea Space to cultivate, the Soul Detention Card on the back of his hand would fall off on its own, and it seemed that he did not dare to approach the Blood Sea Space at all. This made him secretly pay attention, and perhaps in the future, the reincarnation blood sea would become a means for him to deal with gods such as the judgment gods.
You can't use your divine sense, but Meng Yang has a powerful soul refining technique, whether it is a human being, a demon race, or a demon cultivator, as long as he dies in the poisonous miasma, he will turn into a yin soul and float in the poisonous miasma, at that time, Meng Yang can easily use the soul refining technique to collect these yin souls.
He faintly felt that Qinghu, as a strange treasure carried by the demon god, had already reflected its extraordinary, and the two forbidden places of gloom and ecstasy should be the last two arrangements left by the demon god in the Tianxuan plane, and they were also the only places where demonic energy existed in the two places in Tianxuan.
He didn't know what kind of changes would occur if Qing Hu collected all these demonic qi, but now was not the time. The forbidden land should be preserved, creating an illusion for the Divine Monarch that there are still treasures in the forbidden land.
At least before completely eliminating Zhongtian's forces of Chen Tianshi, Meng Yang must show weakness in front of the Divine Monarch, and he must not be too strong, especially not to have a force stronger than the Divine Monarch, there is no doubt that it is a very good choice to be in the Overlord God Sect. Of course, the two forbidden land forces represented by the four of Ming Shao can completely join in the form of third-party forces.
With a bloody covenant, the Divine Monarch would never suspect that Meng Yang, Ming Shao and the others would secretly collude.
Quickly integrating the Divine Monarch and the demon cultivation forces on the inner island is the only big thing Meng Yang wants to do at the moment, he is worried about the Hunter Alliance, worried about Zuiyue and the others, but he has finally gained the trust of the Divine Monarch, he can't leave now.
Using the sale of the elixir and the collection of expedition fees, Ming Shao and the others could raise a large sum of blood essence stones for him to use for his subsequent cultivation of the elixir.
He really hoped that in the two forbidden places, the blood crystal vein could be discovered, so that he would no longer have to worry about the growth of the elixir being interrupted, let alone worrying that the Divine Monarch would suspect that he was cultivating his subordinates because he asked for the Blood Essence Stone.
Although the cost of exploring the forbidden land was very high, in addition to the sect and temple forces, there were still six or seven thousand demon cultivators who poured into the poisonous miasma. Most of them were not selected by the four of Ming Shao, and they were not favored by the major sects, so they had to fight to the death.
Meng Yang didn't have any pity for these demon cultivators, they were all Tianxuan humans, but they were willing to sneak into the Demon Light Islands to cultivate the Demon Gate Exercises and become demon cultivators, this was their own choice, and they could only be destined to become cannon fodder for this expedition. These demon cultivators, because of the cultivation of the exercises, as long as they grow to a certain extent, they will be noticed by the temple or the Hades King, controlled by them, and become the unfavorable factors of the Heavenly Xuan, and these demon cultivators must be eliminated.
Meng Yang knew very well that those gods would kill these people one by one to complete their soul detention mission, and when the figure of the last demon cultivator was overwhelmed by the poisonous miasma, Meng Yang nodded at the four of Ming Shao and stepped into the poisonous miasma.
As long as they are not attacked and not in danger, those who enter the forbidden land often cherish their skills very much.
Meng Yang was completely different, the moment he entered the poisonous miasma area, he used the moon rush step one after another, escaped to a bush, and urged the soul refining technique.
At the same time, he separated a touch of his mind to keep in touch with Qinghu tightly, and with Qinghu as his backing, he didn't need to worry about the consumption of power at all. Because, Qinghu has always been evenly absorbing the demonic qi contained in the poisonous miasma, and then storing it in the refining space after being transformed into it, which can provide support to Meng Yang at any time.
But the other demon cultivators were completely different, as long as their power was consumed, they only had two choices. One is to use the blood essence stone to extract the blood essence true qi in it, and the other is to take the elixir to restore vitality.
However, according to Meng Yang's understanding, the blood essence qi cultivated by demon cultivation is a kind of true qi similar to the spiritual power, which is very special, and the recovery type of elixir is extremely difficult to refine, so the blood essence stone will be so precious in the Demon Light Islands, and the Divine Monarch will firmly control several mineral veins on the inner island in his hands.
Now Meng Yang wants to take advantage of the time he is in the forbidden land to do a big thing, to be precise, he wants to do a big thing that is enough to change the history of some crime and punishment planes!
