Chapter 22: The Thousand Demon Realm
(One more on the weekend, please forgive me - in addition, make a notice, the new book will be on the shelves on the 15th, and I hope the brothers will subscribe more at that time...... )
Found a relatively safe stone nest, Chen Xun and Li Yu hid in it, and then took out those thorny snakes from the small Qiankun bag.
Li Yu peeled the skin and took the scales.
Chen Xun melted the remnant soul of the thorny snake and tried to refine the puppet war soul.
The soul lock seal has all kinds of wonderful uses, one of which is to seal the divine soul, and the puppet war soul refined is naturally sealed in the soul lock seal.
As long as you can refine a few Soul Lock Seals, you can refine multiple puppet battle souls.
And among the enough low-level puppet battle souls, Chen Xun can integrate his own divine soul life element and refine a higher-level puppet war soul.
However, unlike the remnant souls of other dead desolate beasts, when Chen Xun fused the remnant soul of the spiny snake, he sensed that there was an extremely large and violent demonic aura in the remnant soul of the spiny snake, and when the spiritual sense came into contact for a moment, it was like a black and dark cloud coming towards his divine soul, and after invading his body, it turned into a violent wind and waves, and invaded the spiritual sea along the spiritual veins, intending to tear his divine soul to pieces.
Chen Xun's Divine Soul Destiny Yuan was far stronger than ordinary Returning Realm cultivators, and when he felt that the situation was not right, he silently recited the Condensing Mantra to suppress the backlash of the remnant soul of the Acanthic Snake.
However, when Chen Xun was sweating profusely and refining that profound and long evil aura, the remnant soul of the thorny snake was revealed, and it was not necessarily more powerful than the low-level desolate beasts such as the sand snake that could be seen in the sand sea.
Chen Xun gave up and continued to refine the remnant souls of the other thorny snakes, and told Li Yu about the scene of the remnant souls of the spiny snakes just now.
"Look at this!" Li Yu held a boning knife in his hand and disemboweled it along the belly line of a spiny snake, and a blood-colored Yuan Dan with bright blood and the size of a pigeon's egg bloomed and rolled out of the snake's belly.
"How is it possible?" Chen Xun knew that these thorny snakes were extremely difficult to deal with, but he couldn't imagine that these were all demon beasts that were knotted.
He picked up the blood-colored Yuan Dan, and could sense the flow of the spirit element in the Dan, which was indeed very similar to the Yuan Dan described in the ancient books, but people and beasts, entering the Yuan Dan realm, cultivated the Yuan Dan in a variety of ways, but Chen Xun had never heard of anyone cultivating the blood-red Yuan Dan.
"This is not the Yuan Pill, this is the Blood Pill, it can only be condensed by swallowing a large amount of flesh and blood essence," Li Yu's brows furrowed, and he said with deep worry, "In the past, there was a Thousand Demon Sect in Yunzhou that specialized in cultivating blood pills, but it was later destroyed by the joint efforts of all the sects, and I also saw the records about the blood pill from the remnants of the Thousand Swords Sect......"
"It can't be the resurrection of the Thousand Demon Sect in the depths of this Tu Mountain, right?" Chen Xun asked in surprise.
"Back then, the Thousand Demon Sect was also a disciple of Yu Xian who cultivated the Blood Pill, but I have never heard that a low-level desolate beast like the Thorn Snake can also cultivate the Blood Pill, unless it is affected by the Demon Evil Exuded by the Thousand Demon Realm......" Although Li Yu's spiritual vein injury has not yet healed, he still needs Chen Xun's protection when fighting with the Thorn Snake, but when it comes to knowledge and experience, Li Yu, who has lived for nearly one hundred and twenty years, is not comparable to Chen Xun.
However, the demonic aura that invaded Chen Xun's body, the blood pill in front of him, and the various abnormalities when he fought with the spiny snake just now all made Li Yu deeply worried.
"Thousand Demon Realm?" Chen Xun asked suspiciously.
Chen Xun is no stranger to the Three Thousand Worlds.
He himself was a six-armed troll who broke through the space and brought it to the Yunzhou Heavenly Domain.
And the Void Yuan Bead that he refined into the depths of the divine soul, although it cannot be regarded as a spirit world, can also be regarded as a spirit world seed.
Within the Void Yuan Bead, it can be said to be the Void Yuan Space, and when it is upgraded to the real Xiaoqian World, it can be said to be the Void Yuan Realm.
The realm here actually refers to space and the world, and it is completely different from the realm of cultivation.
And the Yunzhou Heavenly Domain is completely isolated from the vast majority of the Spiritual Heavenly Domain, and it takes a strong person above the Nirvana Realm to have the ability to open the spatial barrier.
There are also some spaces, and there are not very stable spatial cracks between Yunzhou, which can be called Guò by humans and beasts, and Yunzhou calls these spaces that can be entered through Guò cracks as secret realms.
However, although Chen Xun has been in Yunzhou for more than three years, he has been hiding in Tibet, and he has limited contact with the monks of Yunzhou, so he knows that there is such a thing as a secret realm, but what is going on is not very clear.
"It is said that there are cracks that can enter and exit the secret realm, but these cracks are extremely unstable, and there are Tiangang storms that are more violent than the heavenly flames, not to mention ordinary monks, that is, celestials, gods, and demons, and it is an extremely dangerous thing to enter the secret realm through these cracks. In addition to these, it is also possible that the spatial rift will exist for decades or hundreds of years, and after a few hundred years, it will disappear out of thin air, and it will not exist forever."
While disemboweling other spiny snakes and checking whether there is a blood pill, Li Yu told Chen Xun some rumors about the secret realm.
"In ancient times, there were some sects refining magic arrays, and these cracks were stabilized, and in a very short period of time, a stable channel was formed to send disciples into the secret realm and collect cultivation resources. And for tens of thousands of years, too many ancient sects have been annihilated in the long river of history, and many secret realms have also completely become legends due to the disappearance of spatial cracks. At this time, within the four domains of Yunzhou, there are still some small and medium-sized secret realms, which are controlled by the emperor and the seven sects, and every once in a while, the emperor and the seven sects will open the channels of these secret realms, allowing all the sects and sects in the world to send their disciples into them to cultivate and collect cultivation resources......"
"The Thousand Demon Realm is also one of them?" Chen Xun asked.
"The existence time of the Thousand Demon Realm is extremely short, less than a thousand years, but no sect has ever been able to control the passage of the Thousand Demon Realm, and even suffered from it," Li Yu shook his head and said, "The Thousand Demon Realm is filled with demonic aura, once there is a gap in the space, the demonic aura will leak to Yunzhou, which is several times more violent and powerful than all the aura in Yunzhou, and at the same time, it can also distort the spiritual intelligence of humans and beasts." The Thousand Demon Sect appeared during that time, and the disciples all cultivated demons, condensed the blood pill with the essence of human and animal flesh and blood, and for a time crisscrossed the Northern Wilderness. Back then, several sects that were more powerful than the Shenxiao Sect and the Dragon Gate Sect were all destroyed by the Thousand Demon Sect. The former Ji clan was also replaced by the Jiang clan four thousand years ago after suffering heavy casualties and being weakened by Yan Zhan because of the destruction of the Thousand Demon Sect. After that, everyone now showed that not only people could cultivate demonic evil, but even desolate beasts were affected by demonic evil that penetrated directly from the spatial cracks, and they could also condense blood pills by swallowing a large amount of flesh and blood. In addition to that catastrophe, in the past four thousand years, there have also been occasional rifts connected to the Thousand Demon Realm, but they were quickly sealed by the major sects. We'll have to see if it's the case this time......"
Hearing Li Yu say this, Chen Xuncai deeply felt the severity of the problem.
If there is really a spatial rift that communicates with the Thousand Demon Realm in the depths of Tushan Mountain, I am afraid that it will once again bring an unspeakable catastrophe to the entire Yunzhou.
Chen Xun and Li Yu continued to disembowel, disemboweling more than a dozen spiny snakes, and picked up a total of six blood pills.
This result is enough to make Chen Xun and Li Yu dumbfounded, no wonder the battle just now was so hard, and I don't know how much flesh and blood these six thorny snakes that are very likely to be affected by demonic aura can swallow blood in their bodies to form blood pills.
However, what worried Chen Xun and Li Yu even more was that there were wisps of demonic aura in these blood pills.
At this time, the sound of fierce fighting was faintly heard in the distance of the valley.
Chen Xun and Li Yu quietly climbed up the cliff from the stone nest, passed through the dense forest, and suddenly saw that in the deep valley in front of them, there were seven people called more than 30 blue-backed wolves entangled, and it was difficult to get out.
The blue-backed wolf, also known as the sand wolf, is a common wild beast in the Wuteng Sand Sea, similar to the common green wolf of the Canglan wild beast, with a copper head and an iron back, and the ferocity is not under the green wolf, but it is not much stronger.
However, the group of blue-backed wolves in the valley who surrounded the black-armored cavalry generals of the Yuanwu Marquis Mansion were obviously more ferocious than the blue-backed wolves that Chen Xun had seen in the Sand Sea Desert in the past.
The black-armored cavalry of the Yuanwu Marquis Mansion will be dominated by martial arts cultivation above the rebirth realm, and the halberd is ten thousand pounds, even if the iron pillar can be discounted, but on the iron back of the blue-backed wolf, I saw a string of electric light and stone fire splashing in the "red slip", and it was uncomfortable for the blue-backed wolf to do nothing.
Seeing this scene, Chen Xun and Li Yu were also secretly frightened, if they hadn't encountered more than a dozen spiny snakes before, but were surrounded by this group of blue-backed wolves, it would have been difficult to get out.
The black-armored cavalry generals of the Yuanwu Marquis Mansion broke into the depths of Tu Mountain, and naturally came to chase him and Li Yu.
After Chen Xun and Li Yu entered the depths of the Tushan Peerless Ridge, it was not that they did not want to hide, but in fact, after they entered the depths of the Peerless Ridge, desolate beasts like the spiny snake were particularly sensitive to unfamiliar breaths, making it difficult for Chen Xun and Li Yu to hide their whereabouts as before.
The men of the Yuanwu Marquis Mansion chased them into the deep mountains, although it was easier than ever to find their whereabouts, but it was not necessarily a good thing.
The scene under the valley is a living example.
Chen Xun and Li Yu heard the movement, and then quietly approached, at most a tea time, but several riding beasts had already fallen in a pool of blood, seven black-armored horsemen were trapped under the cliff, two were already seriously injured, and the other five were only struggling to support.
In such a short period of time, although they had already killed five blue-backed wolves, it was far from enough for them to break out of the encirclement.
Like Chen Xun's previous encounters, they couldn't use magic weapons and spirit swords, and they could only fight close to this group of blue-backed wolves, which was the most severe test for the black-armored cavalry generals who were at an absolute disadvantage in numbers.
Even if you can use spells such as icicle rock thorns to attack the blue-backed wolf, you can't pull the distance, and it's not much better than directly holding the halberd and the blue-backed wolf.
When the blue-backed wolf roared and pounced, Chen Xun and Li Yuyuan were in the middle of thousands of feet, and they could still vaguely feel the familiar demonic aura.
Chen Xun and Li Yu were also shocked by each other, if it was only the alienation of more than a dozen spiny snakes, there might be other reasons, and now even this group of blue-backed wolves were alienated, and the problem would be really strict.
Chen Xun and Li Yu quietly retreated to the back of the mountain for more than a thousand zhang, avoiding being sensed by this group of blue-backed wolves.
Soon the five black-armored riders were forced to abandon their seriously injured comrades and climb cliffs to break through.
And this group of blue-backed wolves stepped on the rock and jumped off the cliff, and their agility was no worse than that of the black-armored cavalry, leaving several afterimages in mid-air, biting behind the black-armored cavalry, and chasing them into the distance.
Chen Xun naturally wouldn't come to the rescue of these people from the Yuanwu Marquis Mansion, but he didn't have the mood to gloat when he saw this scene.
He and Li Yu slid down the valley and put a few blue-backed wolves killed by the black-armored cavalry into the Sumeru ring, and they didn't dare to stop for a while, so they sneaked in the other direction.
