Chapter 114: Humans in Captivity
Inside a cabin in the woods.
Cheng Huo tried to cross a small amount of 'pain power' into the cyan big ding.
Under the effect of the 'power of pain', a black vortex the size of a palm appeared within the cyan tripod for no reason.
A black phantom appeared on the whirlpool, and he spoke.
"It's you"
- From the sound, it is not difficult to hear that this phantom is the one who was in contact with Shengsheng last time.
And it's the same as last time.
Even if the survival at this time had already cultivated in the middle stage of the Blood Pill, he still couldn't see the specific strength of the other party.
On the big tripod.
As soon as the phantom appeared, there was a hint of surprise in his tone: "Unexpectedly, in less than two years, you have already broken through to the middle stage of Jindan." ”
Jindan period?
The word 'Jindan' in the phantom's mouth was stunned when he heard it.
This phantom.
Chengsheng didn't have time to think about it, and soon calmed down and said: "It's just a coincidence, just a fluke breakthrough." ”
He didn't want to reveal too much information about himself, so he went straight to the point: "Dare to ask your predecessors, do you know about the 'Western Apocalypse'?" ”
"The Western Apocalypse?"
The phantom was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist, you have to figure it out first. ”
"The Shinto tripod in your hand can communicate with any member of the organization regardless of distance."
"So, although you can contact me at the moment, it doesn't mean that you and I are necessarily in the same place." "And where I am, there has never been any so-called 'Western catastrophe'."
"This" Cheng Sheng suddenly: "So what the predecessors mean is that you are not in the territory of the Great Liang Kingdom now?" ”
"Great Liang Country? Haven't heard of it."
Phantom homeopathy: "I heard from the Taoist friend, could it be that the place where the Taoist friend is located is about to or has already encountered some kind of calamity?" ”
"Hmm."
The matter of the Western catastrophe is well known in the Great Liang Kingdom, and it is not a secret at all.
Therefore, Cheng Sheng did not shy away from telling the other party about this: "There is a group of huge fierce beasts that suddenly appeared in the western region for no reason, and now they are invading all the way to the east, towards the place where I am. ”
The phantom was silent for a long time, and then asked, "What kind of fierce beast is it, can you describe it specifically?" ”
Cheng Sheng said truthfully: "Those fierce beasts are terrifying, very strong, and huge. The most important point is that people who see the beast will either go crazy afterwards, or they will unknowingly forget the specific appearance of the beast. ”
I don't know where the phantom came from.
He just listened to the words of Chengsheng, and guessed the origin of those 'fierce beasts'.
The phantom said in a solemn tone: "If I'm not mistaken, the 'fierce beast' in the mouth of the Daoist friend should refer to the heir of an indescribable creature, right?" ”
"If it's really an heir, then Daoyou will be in big trouble."
"It's a bit of a hassle." Chengsheng didn't deny it, but just followed the other party's words and asked, "That senior, can you teach me the method of crossing the tribulation?" ”
"Heh," the phantom smiled, "I've seen a lot of catastrophes, but I've never heard of anyone who can 'cross' it." ”
"Under the catastrophe, no one is spared, even if you are a Yuan Infant Cultivator, all you can do is run away and fight against the catastrophe, which is tantamount to using your mantis arm as a car."
Yuan infant monk?
The phantom's words were once again shocked when he heard it.
The monks in the Great Liang Kingdom have always divided the realm with the 'blood pill period' and the 'deep diving period', and there has never been a saying of Jin Dan and Yuan Ying.
But the phantom used 'Jindan' and 'Yuanying' to divide the realm of monks.
This made Cheng Huo have a guess in his heart:
Perhaps, this phantom is really not in the territory of the Great Liang Country, but in a place that is extremely far away from the Great Liang Country.
Of course, it's possible.
All this is just a phantom in order to confuse it into a living audio-visual, so it deliberately said that the blood pill period and the deep diving period were Jindan and the Yuan infant stage.
Out of defense against the phantom, Chengsheng did not directly express the doubts in his heart.
He continued the previous topic: "Then, if the only way to escape after the catastrophe comes, where should I flee?" ”
"It depends." Halfway through his words, the phantom abruptly stopped, saying no more.
Cheng Huo understood his intentions and hurriedly poured a small amount of 'Pain Power' into the Great Ding as a fee for exchanging this information.
"Well, it's not much, but at least it's a little more generous than the last shot."
The Phantom who had benefited continued, "How to avoid the catastrophe depends on the specific situation on your side. ”
"If it's just a catastrophe that affects a certain area, then fly away directly, go to sea by boat, or pass it away through the planetary teleportation array, in short, as long as you can reach a place that is not affected by the catastrophe, you can successfully avoid the catastrophe."
"It's an easy situation to deal with."
"And if it is a catastrophe that affects the entire planet, then it will be a big trouble"
Planet.
From the phantom's mouth, Cheng Huo captured another important information: the world he is in is suspected to be the same 'planet' as the earth.
It's important to know that this world is a planet and not a 'round place'.
- Although Cheng Sheng is already a monk in the Blood Pill Stage, he can fly high in the sky, but he can't fly higher in the atmosphere.
As for the specific reasons
This is the same reason that the ships of the Great Liang Kingdom only dare to operate in the sea area within 500 miles.
Those who sail out of the sea for 500 miles will become seriously ill at least and will be speechless for a few days.
In the worst case, they become insane, lose their sense of self and fall into madness, or even die violently on the ship
Similarly.
Monks who fly above the atmosphere because of their curiosity will likewise fall into madness and be speechless.
In severe cases, they will also die violently.
Therefore, to be able to fly is to be able to fly, but he has never been able to determine what kind of world he is in.
Whether the sky is round or follows gravity
in the house.
After thinking about it, Cheng Sheng continued with the phantom's words: "If nothing else, the catastrophe that the younger generation will face should only involve a certain region. ”
"Then just get out of your territory." The Phantom asked, "So, is the barren land or the sea next to your area?" ”
Badlands?
Chengsheng secretly kept this term in his heart.
He replied truthfully: "Next to my territory is the sea. ”
"Then if you go north, you can go to the northern cold land. But let alone a mortal there, even if the monk goes, he will freeze to death. ”
"To the south is the desert, which is also a desert, and no matter how monks and mortals go, there is no one who can come back alive."
"The desert and the sea." The phantom responded: "I already have a basic understanding of the situation on your side. ”
"Then I'll tell you a little bit."
"No matter what planet, as long as there are unspeakable creatures, then human beings on that planet cannot move across regions at will."
"It's not hard to understand." The Illusory Shadow explains: "Humans are to unspeakable creatures what cattle and sheep are to humans. ”
"When humans raise cattle and sheep, they build sheepfolds. In the same way, when unspeakable creatures keep humans in captivity, they also build 'human circles'. ”
"Human circles?" Chengsheng was confused.
"It's a circle of people."
The Phantom explains: "It is common for humans to feed on cattle and sheep, and for unspeakable creatures to feed on human emotions. ”
"If you want to escape from that area, you are like cattle and sheep in captivity, and you want to escape from the sheepfold and the cattle pen."
"If the cattle and sheep want to escape, they will be stopped by others, so in the same way, if people want to escape, the unspeakable creatures will naturally stop you."
"You shouldn't be too difficult to understand when I say that, right?"
"I understand." Cheng Huo nodded in understanding.
"It's good to understand."
The Phantom continued: "Those who are unspeakably hindered can be at least seriously ill, unable to speak for a few days, or mentally insane, lose their sense of self and fall into madness, or even die violently. ”
"This kind of phenomenon, even if you have never seen it, but as a Jindan period monk, you have heard of it."
"Well, I did." Cheng Huo followed the other party's words: "So, how can we avoid the indescribable creature? ”
"There are three ways I know of this."
Phantom said: "The first method, and the most secure one, is to teleport to different regions on the same planet through the planetary teleportation array. ”
"Because it is teleported away instantly, this method will not attract the attention of the unnamed creature, let alone be blocked by the unnamed creature."
"What about the second one?" Cheng Sheng followed and asked.
"The second is by boat." The Phantom replied, "Unspeakable creatures pay much less attention to the sea than to the land, because there are few people on the sea. ”
"As for the third one, it is naturally a forced flight from land to another area."
"I just heard you say that there is a desert to the south of your area, so you can consider forcing the flight of the Imperial Weapon through that desert."
"This method is the simplest and crude, but because it is land, it is also the most likely to attract unspeakable attention."
"In short, how to choose and how to choose, it depends on the situation on your side."
"Understood." Cheng Huo finally said: "Dare to ask, do you know the arrangement method of the 'Planet Teleportation Array'?" ”
The phantom said: "If you want to use the teleportation array to pass away, you need to arrange a teleportation formation at the end and the starting point. ”
This.
Chengsheng was silent.
After all, even if he tried his best, he could only arrange a teleportation formation within the territory of the Great Liang Country.
As for the territory outside the Great Liang Kingdom, there is nothing he can do.
So after hearing the phantom's answer, Chengsheng dispelled this thought
And since there is no way to escape with the teleportation array, then there is only a relatively safe way to 'take a boat'.
Thinking of this, Shengsheng plans to make two preparations in the future:
First of all, he will set off for Bianjing, the capital of the Great Liang Kingdom, in the next half a year, and at the same time find a way to buy a big ship in the eastern coastal area of the Liang Kingdom.
If the Liang court can resist the Western catastrophe, it will naturally be very good.
If he couldn't, Na Chengsheng took the opportunity to sail by boat, risked crossing the geographical borders of the Great Liang Kingdom, and slipped away
