Chapter 1: The Long Road (1)
The wind rose, and the sea of flowers composed of thousands of yellow flowers set off a yellow tide surging endlessly, but the corresponding thing was an endless crimson purgatory, the earth was torn apart by the flames, and hundreds of thousands of raging flames rushed straight to the sky, forming a long fire dragon, even if there was no fire, the surface of the ground was also red, flying in the air and looking down, you could see that there was also fire churning under the red earth, and at the same time, countless red dragons who were bound struggled to break out of the ground.
The flames were accompanied by blazing, the air seemed to be burning, and even the strong wind that blew from time to time seemed to blow from the fire hell, the heat wave came to his face, Yeluyun stayed for less than a moment and was already sweating, the big beads of sweat continued to drip down his cheeks, and his body was almost roasted dry, and he had no choice but to withdraw from the space of the Flame Purgatory. Stepping into the realm of the Sea of Yellow Flowers, the temperature dropped sharply, and the refreshing cool breeze immediately blew away the heat, and the strong feeling of comfort made Ye Luyun close his eyes, and it took a long time to open them again.
Looking at the red infernal land again, it seemed that the entire area was sealed from the bottom up, and anyone who entered it would be tested by heat and fire, and only the strongest could pass through it.
A wave of pride suddenly surged into his heart, if he didn't want to lead the demon forward, he really wanted to go in again to test his strength. On the other hand, he was also sure that the demons would never be able to survive the Red Purgatory, so there was only one avenue to the southwest.
Fate is pushing him to that distant and mysterious soul sea, Ji Huanting may be there, and the hope of the Mingyuan clan is also there. Looking at the starry sky, a feeling suddenly swelled in his heart that the road must be there, and that the sea that had never been seen before held all hopes.
Of course, hope is often accompanied by disappointment, and when all the people of the Mingyuan clan understand that they only have one way to go, so they make up their minds, the other group leaves in disgrace.
Yeluyun didn't stop it, he didn't even say a word, he just silently looked at the figure full of immortal energy and sank into the hanging river with a cloud of yellow mud, the road of life often forks, but he doesn't know when the road will be unified again, he believes that the relationship between himself and Yuwenhui is not over, but just temporarily embarked on two different paths.
"Great Chief, the Great Army has crossed the Sea of Yellow Flowers."
Yeluyun glanced back at the pointed face of the leader of the Eagle Clan, nodded silently, and flew to the southwest with the wind beast, before leaving, he quietly glanced at the wonderful inverted sea, two important secret groups still have not been solved, one is the mystery of the sea hanging upside down and the wonderful water without waves, and the other is the source of the magic breath of the sea of yellow flowers.
"Very good, the vitality of the Mingyuan clan is in your own hands, be sure to speed up your progress, and remember to erase the traces left during the march as much as possible."
"Yes!"
"It's not easy! Probably Heavenly Court would never have thought that we would be able to cross the hanging sea so smoothly."
Yeluyun smiled very happily, starting from outside Nanxiang City, moving forward step by step, hope always comes with difficulties......
The sky in the distance rose with a light glow, just like the color in Yeluyun's heart at this moment, as if the god of fate was waving its colorful sleeves to guide the path of the Mingyuan clan.
Destiny is in the Southwest! This was the goal he was sure of now, only the remote southwestern mountains and wilderness could accommodate these millions of demons who were spurned by the Heavenly Court.
"Big Chief, the ghost land in front of you is really hot, just flew in for a while, and a few hairs have been hot, it's really a terrible place." The Eagle Clan Patriarch rubbed the pair of huge wings on his back vigorously, he, like the other demons, did not know Yeluyun's heart, and only thought about the things in front of him.
"yes!"
Yeluyun pointed to a sweat-soaked shirt and smiled bitterly, he understood the personality of the demon, and did not take the initiative to say his true thoughts, because he knew that what these people needed was a brain-type leader, a god-like leader, and an all-powerful leader.
These guys...... He smiled bitterly in his heart, the fate of a race was completely in the hands of an outsider, no matter how he thought about it, it felt a little ridiculous, but it was the truth, and this kind of absurd thing would continue forever, and his eyes moved to the north.
"Great Chief, the mud men are gone."
Yeluyun glared at him, Yuwenhui and the Earth Spirit Man were still stinging in his heart when they left, and he didn't want to touch it.
The leader of the Eagle Clan didn't understand human accidents, and he spoke bluntly, so he forgot about it after speaking, and said with a smile: "We have also carefully inspected the north, and the flames over there are darker, and there is also a yin wind, which makes me feel more uncomfortable."
Yeluyun had long since stopped harboring illusions about the new path, and was only thinking about the direction of the Soul Sea.
To the southwest of the Sea of Yellow Flowers is a long and narrow green corridor with a width of about 100 li, in the middle of which there is a long river in the middle of the corridor, and the main river and the network of tree roots-like tributaries make the land vibrant, so that the green corridor is rich in water and plants, the environment is pleasant, and the products are quite abundant, and you can see delicious and juicy wild fruits everywhere, and there are countless animals and plants in the process, and many demons can see this place at a glance.
Between the rivers and streams, the water splashes gradually, and the sound of joy is endless, the demons have not enjoyed such a leisurely atmosphere for a long time, as if the hard work of the road has disappeared in this green world, immersed in the frolicking and fun in the mountains.
The cheerful atmosphere also infected Yeluyun, and this already cheerful and cheerful young man soon blended into this atmosphere, riding the wind beast through the mountains and forests, enjoying a brief time of peace.
However, joy is temporary after all, the newly built Mingyuan clan is still in crisis, and Yeluyun, who is immersed in happiness, has not forgotten his mission and responsibility. But for the short-sighted demon leaders, the joy at the moment was enough.
"Great Chief, do you want to go further, why don't you stay here?"
Dozens of leaders suddenly found Yeluyun and expressed their willingness to stay, and Yeluyun, who was besieged, instantly erased the joy of playfulness and returned to the role of the big leader.
The gentle and deep gaze scanned the besiegers, no matter what they looked like, their eyes were almost the same firm, and if they were denied, civil strife might break out immediately, and the atmosphere froze in an instant.
Yeluyun's silence was also an invisible pressure, and the leaders surrounding him all felt that the mountain in their hearts was gradually getting heavier, and even had a feeling of suffocation, and they were even more anxious when they were already a little weak.
"Great Chief, why don't you speak?"
"Say, what can I say, haven't you all already decided?" Yeluyun also liked this place, but he also knew that this place could only be used temporarily, and it was definitely not a place for demons to stay, after all, this was the main passage between Heavenly Court and the Soul Sea.
The sharp tone hit each leader's body like a cold wind, and they all shivered involuntarily.
"Don't you like it here, too! It's such a good place, but it's actually not bad." The leader of the pigmen dangled from a fat pig's head, and his self-righteous appearance was quite funny.
"Yes! Why do you still ask me what I do?"
"This ......"
The fox man was more cunning, and when he saw that Yeluyun's expression was wrong, he hurriedly laughed and said, "It's just a proposal, it's just a proposal, you are the big leader, and everything is still up to you."
"In that case, everyone go back and reorganize your subordinates and set off immediately."
"Immediately—that is!" The leaders were dumbfounded.
"Immediately, this is an order, if you don't obey it, you can find someone else to be the big leader."
The leaders were so frightened that they shrank their necks, they didn't dare to speak anymore, they drooped their heads and retreated, the disappointed expression on their faces was fully displayed, and they had overcome many obstacles with great difficulty, and the Mingyuan clan from top to bottom hoped to find their ideal home as soon as possible, seeing that there was a very comfortable place but could not stay, the mood can be imagined.
Yeluyun's decision this time was very firm, and there was no room for doubt, and several demons complained a little, and they were split alive by him on the spot, so scared that everyone didn't dare to slack off for a moment, and hurriedly packed up everything and continued to go southwest.
Looking at the mighty crowd, Yelu Yun knew that they would inevitably have complaints, but if they stayed any longer, these people would lose their fighting spirit to survive, and in the end, they would not be able to escape the hands of Heaven.
"Let's go! Speed up."
Under Yeluyun's near-tyrannical control, the demons began a new long march, and the farther away from the heavenly court, the safer it was, so Yeluyun had to do so, but it was not without sequelae, and it soon appeared......
In order to ensure that the road ahead was unimpeded, Yeluyun personally took the Eagleclan Patriarch and fifty Hawkman masters to explore the way to the exit of the corridor.
After walking along the river for about two or three hundred miles to the southwest, two huge peaks suddenly appeared in front of them, just blocking the exit of the corridor, forming a pair of natural giant gates. As we flew closer, the situation of the mountain peaks became clearer, and the river suddenly converged and sank between the two peaks, and the water became turbulent, rushing into the underground channel between the two peaks.
"What a mountain!"
The patriarch of the Eagle Clan looked up at the towering peak and sighed, the Eagle Clan was not afraid of any peak, but seeing the second peak was also so amazed, it showed the height of this pair of peaks.
Yeluyun was thinking about a completely different problem, the mountain peak blocked the green corridor, the mountain was like an axe and a knife, it was almost impossible to climb the mountain, so there was no other way out except the underground river, and he couldn't help muttering in his heart, as long as this kind of terrain stuck the entrance of the underground river, even if thousands of troops and horses could not fly over, if they held here, the heavenly soldiers could only rely on air power to fly across, and large-scale wars could be prevented.
"The southwest is indeed a good place to settle down, if there is a place to live behind the peak, it is better to settle down temporarily, and then send a small force to search around."
Having made up his mind, he ordered the Eagle Clan to fly high in search of a viable path, while he himself plunged headlong into the underground river channel that had been plunged into darkness.
The river swooped down, and the current was so rapid that Yeluyun didn't dare to be careless, and the wind beast walked against the riverbank, intending to explore the surrounding area as it went, in case there was an abnormal situation in the underground river.
The underground river channel is a natural giant underground cave, the sound of the water flow continues to sound through the echo, the sound of the zither is emitted, it is wonderful in the ear, it can be described as a natural sound, although Yeluyun does not understand the rhythm, but also is fascinated by this wonderful Huayin, the notes turn into a hot spring, moisturizing every inch of space from the inside to the outside of the body, so the footsteps move very slowly, and sometimes a stick of incense can not move a zhang.
It's wonderful, I can't imagine that the sound of water can reach such a level!
In addition to sighing, Yeluyun had to make a new assessment of this cave, such a wonderful place seemed to be not only the cold cave mansion through which the river passed, but also the special objects hidden in it.
The underground river is quite long, winding and meandering, with many bends and dead ends, the longest section of the straight line is no more than five zhang, it feels like walking in the intestines of a giant snake, endless, the more you walk, the more you feel the depth, if it is not for the heavenly notes, I am afraid that not many people can complete this journey. Yeluyun walked for a while before he seemed to understand that the sound of the river was so moving, perhaps it was trying to calm the uneasiness of the passers-by.
After walking about twenty or thirty miles of the ileal dark road, the front suddenly lit up, and the eyes could not bear the light for a while, only feeling that a white light covered the eyes, and the only thought was that it was finally the end.
Thinking of this, Ye Luzhen's heart couldn't help but feel hot, and he rushed out with an arrow step, but when his eyesight returned to normal, he found that everything in front of him was very different from his imagination, and he couldn't help but be shocked by the scene in front of him.
