Chapter 211: Nine Directions Island, Ten Thousand Insect Palace!
One of Xia Mangqian's golden crow clones flew towards the levitating island, while cautiously paying attention to the movements of the Nine Puppets in the distance.
Seeing that the head of the Nine Puppets poked out was retracted, as if he hadn't noticed himself, the big stone hanging in Xia Mangqian's heart had just landed, and he felt the surrounding void rippling.
Not only his path-exploring golden crow clone, but even the doppelganger hiding in the distance only felt an irresistible force enveloping him.
At that moment, it was as if my mind was running extremely slowly.
"Not good!" Xia Mangqian's heart was shocked, "The Nine Puppets want to do it to themselves? ”
This is a magic weapon puppet at the world realm.
And through the memories of those core members of the Nine Directions Chaos Kingdom in the World Prison, he knew that the strength of the 'Nine Directions' puppets was stronger than the ordinary world realm.
In front of a puppet of this level, it is not enough to tie up all the immortal cultivators of the entire Three Realms, and it is not enough for the other party to slaughter in one move!
It was a terrifying existence that could destroy a chaotic world.
Wow~~~
The void shifts.
Xia Mangqian's eyes swept away, and he saw a magnificent palace not far away that seemed to be a four-hoofed beast standing tall, which was the Kunyu Palace that he had seen from afar before.
And in the corner of the Kunyu Palace, the nine-headed puppet with the body of the hydra looked down, staring at himself with dark yellow eyes, and the terrifying aura was naturally permeated, making Xia Mangqian's heart beat wildly.
Fortunately, after the Nine Puppets just glanced at it, they didn't look at it anymore, and the huge head leaned against the Kunyu Palace, slowly closing its eyes.
The terrifying aura that enveloped the surrounding heaven and earth disappeared, causing Xia Mangqian to breathe a breath of turbidity.
"Whew."
This was the first time he had personally felt the strong aura of the world realm.
Compared to this kind of existence, the strength of his own half-step true god is simply not much stronger than that of an ant.
When Fang was stared at by the Nine Puppets, he had a feeling that if the Nine Puppets wanted to kill him, he was afraid that just one breath would be enough to destroy his soul.
"Huh?"
"Am I connected to the soul of the deity?" Xia Mangqian's heart felt a pimple.
Because he suddenly discovered that no matter how far away they were in the past, even the Void Storm in the Void Sea before, the soul connection that had never been broken was completely unable to communicate with the Buddha-figure thinking and memory at this time.
"That's right. In the original book, the Moon Lake opened up by the god of the North Rest World can isolate the soul connection between the doppelganger and the deity. This suspended island should have been opened up by the Lord of the Nine Directions, and it was not surprising that he could do this. ”
Xia Mangqian understood that with his current strength, he could not resist at all in the face of the means arranged by such beings as the World Realm. And since he was moved into the suspended island, and he didn't do anything to himself, he thought it would be safe for the time being.
"Adapt to the situation." Xia Mangqian took back the clone who had explored the path before to the Immortal Mansion.
At this time—
"Wow."
A black mist suddenly condensed on the square in front of Kunyu Palace, and in the blink of an eye, it condensed into a white-haired old man.
"I am the spirit of the formation of this island, and I am waiting here at the order of my master." The white-haired old man was wearing a black robe, his breath was cold, and he looked at Xia Mangqian's eyes without the slightest fluctuation, as if he was looking at a dead thing.
"Junior Xia Mangqian, I have seen the seniors of the Array Spirit." Xia Mangqian saluted respectfully.
Suddenly came to a strange realm, everything around him was unknown, even if the other party was just a spirit of the formation, not a real life, it didn't hurt to be more respectful.
"This island is called Jiufang Island, and it is the sleeping place of my master, the great Lord of Jiufang." The white-haired old man said.
"A place of sleep?" Xia Mangqian was stunned.
"It's just dead." The white-haired old man said, "Before his death, the master left all his treasures and the inheritance of the supernatural power exercises on Jiufang Island. Latecomers only need to pass the five levels of the test to become the master's disciple and get all the resources that the master has left for his disciples of the next generation. ”
I knew it, I knew it was good!
Xia Mangqian was excited and ecstatic.
After the practitioner dies, he either has a wish that has not been fulfilled, or he does not want to have the supernatural power exercises in his lifetime, and many treasures are wasted, leaving a place of inheritance and testing to wait for those who are destined, which can be said to be the most common chance encounter when venturing into adventures.
And the reason why Xia Mangqian is so happy......
Don't forget.
This is the Lord of the Nine Directions.
The "Eighteen Gods and Demons of Tao Wu" that he cultivated was handed down by the Lord of the Nine Directions. Moreover, the Nine Directions Country Lord himself also cultivated this doppelganger technique, and practiced it to the third level realm.
Then the few chaotic strange things he had been looking for had a great chance of landing here!
"You're lucky." The white-haired old man looked at Xia Mangqian, "You are the first cultivator to come to Jiufang Island after the death of your master. According to the master's instructions, the first cultivator only needs to promise to lead ten more cultivators here, and even if he can't pass the test, he can leave Jiufang Island alive with the gift he got after passing the test level. ”
"Therefore, if you feel that you cannot complete the next test, you can choose to give up at any time." The white-haired old man said, "There is a teleportation formation on Jiufang Island, which can send you directly out of the Void Eye. ”
Eyes of the Void?
Xia Mangqian was stunned at first, and then suddenly it was clear that the white-haired old man should be talking about the Void Sea.
"In such a dangerous place, there is even a formation teleportation that can leave, and the means of the Nine Directions Country Lord in the formation are simply incredible." Xia Mangqian sighed secretly.
"Of course." The white-haired old man added, "If you choose to give up, then there will be no chance to become a disciple of the master in the future." ”
"Understood." Xia Mangqian nodded.
Just look at this Jiufang Island hidden in the depths of the Void Sea, if you don't come by yourself, I'm afraid that no one will come if you wait for endless years.
And the Nine Directions Country Lord ordered this, thinking that he hoped that more immortal cultivators would come here and be tested.
After all, even if the Ancestral God and Ancestral Immortal did not have the Chaos Treasure, they would almost surely die if they entered the Void Sea. Even if there is a Chaos Treasure that can resist hard, if his own speed cannot reach the limit of the Heavenly Dao, it is estimated that the Void Storm at the beginning will not be able to break through, let alone come to the depths of this Void Sea and find a small island with a diameter of only a hundred miles.
"Come with me." The white-haired old man's figure turned into a phantom, streaked across the sky, and flew towards the Kunyu Palace in the distance.
"The test is in Kunyu Palace?" Xia Mangqian followed the white-haired old man curiously.
As far as he knew, the Kunyu Palace was a magic weapon palace of the highest level of Dao.
The so-called magic weapons of the Dao are mostly refined by the Dao Monarch of Life and Death, and their power far exceeds that of the Chaos Treasure! The gap is as big as the difference between the immortal level magic weapon and the pure yang magic weapon.
In the endless chaos, there is only one in ten thousand that the ancestral gods and ancestral immortals can obtain the magic weapon of the Dao, and most of them are only available in the power of the world realm.
The magic weapon of the Tao is divided into lower grade, middle grade, upper grade, and best grade.
A magic weapon palace like Kunyu Palace, which is the ultimate level of the Dao, cannot afford it at the cost of all your net worth in the ordinary world realm.
"Huh? Not going to Kunyu Palace? After Xia Mangqian followed the white-haired old man and flew across the square, he did not fall towards the main hall gate of Kunyu Palace, but turned around and came to the back of the Kunyu Palace.
Suddenly.
An oval building with a black metallic sheen comes into view.
From a distance, Xia Mangqian's oval building looked like a giant beetle lying on the ground.
"This is the Hall of Ten Thousand Insects, and there is a cave world in it, which is the place where my master raises insects and beasts." The white-haired old man landed at the gate of the oval building.
"The test left by the master is in a small world opened up in the Hall of Ten Thousand Insects. If you feel like you can't hold on, just say give up and you'll be removed. The white-haired old man looked at Xia Mangqian, "But if you look for death by yourself and don't give up, you will die if you die." ”
"Understood." Xia Mangqian nodded.
"Let's make a natal vow first." The white-haired old man waved his hand.
"Whew."
Suddenly, a quaint stone tablet exuding inexplicable fluctuations appeared in front of Xia Mangqian.
"Just place your palm on the oath tablet." The white-haired old man said indifferently.
"Okay." Xia Mangqian stretched out his palm as he said.
Rumble!
An invisible energy immediately poured into his sea of divine souls.
"I, swear by my life......" Xia Mangqian's spirit began to say the oath uncontrollably.
Although his spirit was out of control, he knew exactly what he was saying.
The general idea is that if he fails to pass the test, after leaving Jiufang Island, he must lead ten cultivators who have walked the way of gods and demons to come within 10,000 years.
And while he continued to say his vows, that invisible energy gradually seeped into his soul, and finally fell silent in his sea of consciousness.
Xia Mangqian knew that unless he fulfilled his oath, this invisible energy would only remain silent, and then burst out again when the time limit came, destroying his soul.
This is the natal oath, as long as it is made, it cannot be broken, and it is much stronger than the Heavenly Dao Blood Oath commonly used in the Three Realms.
Because the Heavenly Dao Blood Oath is an oath to the Heavenly Dao that operates in the chaotic world, once the strength is too strong, such as the Dao Ancestor can even control the Heavenly Dao, the Heavenly Dao Blood Oath is purely a joke.
But the natal oath is not something that can be issued if you want to.
Generally, they have become chaos immortals and world gods, so that they can take the initiative to make their natal oaths.
Otherwise, the only way to do this is to use external objects. And these foreign objects can only be refined by extremely powerful existences among the Chaos Immortals and World Gods.
For example, there is only one world god in the Three Realms, Nuwa Niangniang, who left after breaking through for a long time, so there is not a single treasure in the entire Three Realms that can issue a natal oath.
……
"Alright."
After Xia Mangqian made an oath, the white-haired old man stretched out his hand and pointed to the door of the Ten Thousand Insects Palace.
"Whew."
The inside of the door immediately opened from the inside, revealing a dark hole inside.
followed by a huge suction force, directly enveloping Xia Manggan.
Depend on!
I'll go myself!
Xia Mangqian only felt as if he was being grabbed by a big hand, and then the void changed.
When he came to his senses again, he found himself in front of him a huge canyon.
The canyon is thousands of miles wide, and the depth is not many miles.
In the canyon, there was also a green beetle beast with a long head and wings on its back staring at him from afar.
Through those golden eyes, Xia Mangqian could feel the extreme thirst for flesh and blood of these green beetle beasts.
"Buzz."
That's when information came to mind.
Xia Mangqian immediately knew the rules of this first test.
"Kill all the insects and beasts in the canyon, and kill the guarding puppets at the bottom of the last valley to pass through...... The maximum time limit is 300 years. Xia Mangqian frowned.
The rules of the test are simple.
Nothing more than killing.
The strong one will pass and enter the next level. The weak, die.
But what made him frown was that there was a special requirement for this assessment.
You must use the sword technique, and you can only use the weapons prepared in the Hall of Ten Thousand Insects.
In addition, no other magic weapon talismans may be used.
If you practice the art of clones, you can use them, but as the number of doppelgängers increases, the number of insects, beasts, and golems in the level will also increase...... It is not difficult to see that these rules are to prevent the interlocutors from using external forces, and they can only rely on their own combat strength to break through.
"In this way, my second primordial god can't be used, and the means of refining qi flow can't be used." Xia Mangqian said secretly, "It's the other clones of the Golden Crow clone, and if you can't use it, try not to use it." ”
Fortunately, before himself, the true spirit shuttled and devoured the world's clone, and at the beginning he comprehended the Heart Scar Chaos Monument, and he put a lot of effort into the comprehension of the sword technique.
In addition, the weapon he has been using is 'Gong', and the technique is the same as the knife technique, and the most basic moves are sweeping, splitting, dialing, cutting, chopping, etc., and it doesn't hurt to use only the knife technique.
"Choose a knife to pick up first." Xia Mangqian saw the rows of weapon racks placed next to the entrance of the canyon, and with a sweep of his mind, he understood that the various styles of knives inserted on them were nothing special except for their toughness and sharpness, which were comparable to pure yang magic weapons.
"Boom."
Xia Mangqian pulled out a blade with a slight arc, and the style resembled the style of the sword in the history of the Chinese Kingdom.
But the ratio of the blade to the handle of the sword is larger than that of the saber, and it is suitable for holding it in one hand.
And Xia Mangqian picked it up and tried to wield it, the weight was similar to his usual weapons, and it was definitely a heavy knife among one-handed knives.
"That's it."
Xia Mangqian waved his hand and put the entire weapon rack into the Immortal Mansion with his hand, and then walked towards the canyon with a knife in both hands.
"Wow."
After passing through an invisible barrier, the green beetle beast in the canyon that was originally just staring at itself from afar suddenly moved.
"Roar~~~"
With a low roar, the transparent wings on the backs of those green beetle beasts spread, followed by a buzzing tremor like a buzz, and the green beetle beasts turned into cyan streamers and flew to kill.
"Thirty-six Heavenly God Peak Level Insect Beasts?"
There will be no ban on it, and Xia Mangqian's mental strength is just a sweep, and he knows all the information of all the insects and beasts in his heart.
"Because I'm a half-step true god, is there a limit to the strength of the opponent I arranged?" Xia Mangqian smiled.
Shout!
A misty flash of sword light swept by.
When Xia Mangqian landed again, he had already entered the canyon for nearly 100 miles.
Behind him, the thirty-six green beetle beasts at the peak level of the Heavenly God had all split their bodies into two halves and were completely killed.
"It's too easy to kill these ordinary insects and beasts, and you don't even need to use knife techniques." Xia Mangqian shook his head slightly, and then walked towards the depths of the canyon while carefully examining his surroundings.
"It's just that you can kill all the insects and beasts in the canyon, and finally kill the guarding puppets to pass, how can there be a maximum time limit to limit. And every ten years, a group of stronger and more insects and beasts will appear......"
"Unless, there's something in this canyon that will attract the interlopers." Xia Mangqian looked at the cliff in front of him, and his face showed a shocked look.
I saw the smooth stone walls on the cliff wall, which were inlaid with countless words and graphics.
Xia Mangqian just swept his eyes, and he felt that the knife intent rushing to his face made him seem to see a handle or domineering, or bloody, or weird, or fierce war knife, was slashing towards him.
"No wonder it doesn't matter whether the person who comes to the level is good at sword techniques or not, they require that they must use sword techniques to break through......" Xia Mangqian suddenly said, "The Lord of the Nine Directions is ready to practice the guidance of sword techniques!" ”
