Chapter 780: Stagnant Spirit Realm
Stagnant Realm. The place seems to be shrouded in a mysterious force that makes everything unusually slow!
The clouds in the sky, because of the blowing wind, the wind speed is only one-tenth of the original, and the flow is unusually slow, as if it is quietly suspended in the air without a trace of change.
The flowers and trees on the plains and mountains are also slowly swaying in the breeze; The dust, dead leaves and other things blown by the wind are also like falling into an incomparably viscous and formless body of water, whether it is rising, rotating or falling, it is extremely slow, as if time has been infinitely extended.
The falling raindrops were no exception, turning into thin droplets, as if suspended in the air, slowly and continuously falling on the protective body of Shen Mo and his party, turning into a puff of fine mist and exploding, and slowly drifting away with the wind.
In the midst of this, everything slows down, and there is an eerie sense of tranquility! At this time, it happened to be Shen Mo's turn to make a move, carrying the silver-haired boy, Qin Zhen hidden in the puppet Enma, and Longyuan Zhenjun Kang Haoxiu to hurry; As usual, he released the Evil Eater Centipede, and used its massive body to carry the four of them all the way north.
It's just that the evil eating centipede is extremely hard to swim and fly, and its speed is not fast. With the benefit of the true immortal evil qi, it is already a mid-fifth-order demon, setting up a demon wind and evil light to fly away with all its might, and its speed is not weaker than that of a mid-stage monk of the Shenqiao Realm, and it can fly out of fifty or sixty miles away with one breath and one breath, and it can travel millions of miles away without hesitating mana, day and night!
Now, it can only fly five or six miles in one breath, and it can only travel about 100,000 miles day and night.
"Fulong Daoyou...... DID YOU KNOW...... The origin of this sluggish spiritual realm? If we practice here, will we be able to increase our longevity tenfold to 30,000 years old? Shen Mo sat at the head of the evil eating centipede, while running the exercises to absorb the aura of heaven and earth, refining it into the power of mixed yuan, and used to make up for it
The daily mana consumption of "maintaining one's own Taoism" asked the silver-haired boy sitting behind him.
It's just that his voice is extremely long, and it takes a long time to spit out a word, like a slow video in his previous life.
Moreover, even the speed of refining spiritual energy and restoring mana has slowed down tenfold, if it is not in a state of cultivation from time to time, on the premise of not swallowing high-level elixirs and heavenly treasures, the daily mana consumption that maintains its path alone cannot make up for it.
Feeling that this kind of communication was extremely strange, Shen Mo simply kept silent, and directly transmitted the sound with his divine sense, and communicated with the silver-haired boy and the other three.
Although the flow of thoughts and consciousness has also become extremely slow, communication with this method is already as fast as a flash, so it is still much faster than speaking!
Hearing Shen Mo's inquiry, the silver-haired boy replied: "This sluggish spiritual realm has existed for an unknown number of thousands of years, how can the old man know its origin?" ”
However, according to the speculation of the old man and Tzu Chi Immortal Weng and several other fellow friends, either the earth's spiritual veins here are different, which naturally forms an effect similar to the formation prohibition. Either the existence of a true immortal or above has fallen, and under the erosion and distortion of the Great Dao force field, a strange environment has been created where everything here is extremely slow! ”
"In my previous life, after entering this place with other Daoists, it is also the same as now, whether it is retreating, cultivating, or casting spells, it has slowed down a lot. The Phaseless Realm cultivators can't avoid it, and the Shenqiao Realm can only adapt to the current situation. ”
"As for Shouyuan, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint Daoyou! The Shenqiao Realm cultivator is limited to three thousand years, and there are still many years left to live in the outside world, and he can only live for so many years in this sluggish spiritual realm all year round. Except for affecting the practice, there is no benefit at all......"
"Otherwise, this area would have become a treasure land of the Immortal Family a long time ago, and countless monks of my generation would have poured in!"
"But in fact, not to mention immortal cultivators here, even mundane mortals find it difficult to live in it and reproduce normally. Except for a few gifted demons, ordinary creatures are pitiful. Shen Mo pondered carefully and found that it was indeed difficult for mortal beings, whether human beings or other beings, to survive in this sluggish spiritual realm.
If nothing else, it takes ten times as much time to get food to satisfy the stomach, and where is the time to reproduce and mate and nurse the young; Over time, even living creatures such as birds, animals, and so on in this realm have become extremely rare.
And extraordinary beings with a certain realm will not be tired of running around to fill their stomachs. However, the higher the realm, the greater the consumption of spiritual power to maintain one's own existence, and I am afraid that most of the time in this place is used to maintain the original cultivation, and it is extremely difficult to improve; In addition, Shouyuan will not become long because of this, and in idle situations, extraordinary beings will not want to stay here!
Just as Shen Mo and his party were talking, an incomparably fierce demon aura rose on an immortal mountain where the evil eating centipede passed, and a demon with two pairs of wings and a torso in the shape of a human head chased them at an extremely fast speed!
This is a mid-fifth-order demon, and thanks to his racial talent, his flight speed is much faster than that of the Evil Eater Centipede.
Without waiting for Shen Mo to make a move, Qin Zhen, who was really inside the puppet, drove the fifth-order puppet Enma, his arms changed into a sword and a shield, and he waved the iron-winged magic weapon on his back to kill the four-winged head demon!
…… Tens of millions of miles, if it is a normal situation in the outside world, Shen Mo and his party can complete it in only thirty or forty days.
And in this sluggish spiritual realm, it took them more than a year in total, but fortunately, although there are many demons in this realm, there are not many demons of the sixth order and above who can force them to detour, otherwise it will take a longer time to detour!
During this time, Shen Mo and the others also became familiar with each other, but it was extremely difficult to cultivate to their level, and it was extremely difficult to communicate with each other.
After breaking away from the sluggish spiritual realm and wandering north for more than half a year, the group finally arrived at the secret realm of the Immortal Mansion.
It's just that what is unleashing in front of them is not some immortal blessed land, but a sinister land that is several times more barren than the Sluggish Spirit Realm!
A mountain as large and magnificent as Yuquan Mountain, towering majestically over the wilderness. But this mountain is not an immortal mountain, but an evil mountain...... The mountain is roughly in the shape of a volcano, and the top of the mountain is sunken into it, and it is an extremely large, bottomless sinkhole.
A constant wind of smoke and fire, carrying a devastating force, erupted from the crater and rolled toward the sky and in all directions, staining the sky so dark that not even half of the clouds were visible; In a radius of millions of miles, the soil and rock layers have been blown away, forming a treacherous terrain with thousands of ravines, and all kinds of underground mineral deposits and veins are nakedly exposed!
After a period of spurting fire, the fiery wind suddenly transformed into a terrifying devouring suction, swallowing everything nearby into the sinkhole.
