After entering the underground palace of this witch country, Shi Yi also saw signs of the intersection of ten witches and six witches on the mural scattered.

There is evidence from the murals of the witch kingdom in this ancient era, which shows that the records in the ancient books are not wrong.

At that time, Shi Yi was thinking, since there was no mistake, where did the remaining four great witches go, they couldn't just disappear out of thin air.

Later, combined with the exploration of this place in the dream, Shi Yi found that the four great witches had not disappeared, but had already died.

The time node of their death was after the Great War between the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou.

The reason for their death was the same as that of Kuafu, both because of betrayal of the Yellow Emperor.

Then he joined the side of Chiyou, and was destroyed by the Yellow Emperor after the defeat.

And now the big tomb above the gears is the betrayal of the Yellow Emperor back then.

Later, with the defeat of Chi You, the tomb of the four great witches who were killed by the Yellow Emperor.

It would be more appropriate to call it a tomb, in fact, a repression.

In ancient times, the Great Witch held a high status and was considered to be the one who communicated heaven and earth.

The ancient people believed in heaven and earth, and no matter what kind of major events, they would sacrifice to heaven and earth, and this is the earliest origin of witchcraft.

The major affairs of the country are in worship and Rong. (note 1)

The ancients believed that the two most important things in the country were sacrifice and war.

And of these two things, the sacrifice comes before the war.

And when interpreted as the word Rong, it is not simply a war.

It is a ritual before the battle.

It seems to be two things, but in fact, in the end, the only thing that the ancients thought was a major national event was sacrifice.

And this sacrificial duty is completely carried out by the shaman.

This shows how high the status of witches was in ancient times.

It can even be said that the Yellow Emperor himself is also a kind of witch, and he is a higher existence than the great witch.

The Yellow Emperor and the Ten Witches can be said to be figures at the peak of power in ancient times.

But it was such a figure at the pinnacle of power, and four out of ten betrayed the Yellow Emperor.

One can imagine how resentful the ruler at that time was in the face of such a situation.

Now the real role of this Wuguo underground palace is unknown, but Shi Yi can be sure of one thing.

One of the functions of this witch country underground palace is to punish the four great witches who chose to betray the Yellow Emperor at the beginning.

Although Shi Yi had been here many times, he still had a shudder at the thought of that kind of punishment and repression.

Shi Yi was thinking about his thoughts as he walked.

And Cao Guang saw that the environment on the gear was very different from that of other places, and finally couldn't help it, and asked Shi Yi again:

"Fellow Daoist, what kind of place is this, and where are we going? ”

This time, Shi Yi did not ignore Cao Guang's question, and replied directly:

"Cao Daoyou, what do you think is the source of energy that can keep it running for millions of years by running this Witch Kingdom Underground Palace?

Hehe, the place we are going to now is where the energy core of this Wuguo underground palace is located. ”

With that, Shi Yi quickened his pace and walked towards the center of the huge gear.

Soon Shi Yi and the others came to the center of the gears.

After coming here, Cao Guang was stunned by the scene in front of him.

I saw that there was no trace of dirt on the ground around it.

For the earth was already covered with a patch of white.

And this white is not snow or salt, but the corpses of people who have long since turned into white bones.

They lay densely on the ground, and when you look up, you can barely see the area that is not covered by white bones.

It's all like this, and it looks like a sea of bones.

The scene in front of him really made Cao Guang's scalp tingle.

The man took a deep breath and decisively activated his non-path technique.

Through the blessing of a large number of thoughts, Cao Guang quickly calculated the sum of the number of white bones here.

The total number of white bones in this place was close to one million, and after learning this number, Cao Guang couldn't help but be a little stunned.

Even if this figure was calculated by Cao Guang himself, he still didn't believe it.

Because there were so many of them, it made him shudder.

On the other hand, Shi Yi, because he has been here many times, the more he has seen it, the less shock he had at the beginning.

However, of course, when he first came here, the shock in Shi Yi's heart was no less than that of Cao Guanglai.

At first, Shi Yi didn't understand why there were so many corpses here.

However, after knowing that this is the tomb of the Great Witch, and understanding the true purpose of this place.

Shi Yi also found the reason why there are so many corpses here.

As mentioned earlier, the ancients were the most sacrificial.

However, there must be corpses in the sacrifice, and even if the sacrifice has been carried down to this day, there will still be three sacrifices.

In ancient times, the activities were very rude, which led to human sacrifice as a human sacrifice, which was not uncommon.

Although there is no evidence to confirm who these bones are.

But under the premise of the war between the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou, it is actually very easy to guess.

Shi Yi judged that these dead who were sacrificed as human beings should be from the Jiuli tribe on the Chiyou side.

In that era when blood was honored, blood difference was original sin.

As a defeated person, Chiyou's bloodline is the same as that of a clansman with the same bloodline.

Naturally, it is impossible to be let go gently, and their final result is only death.

And the suppression and punishment of this great witch tomb requires sacrifices, so it creates this scene like a sea of bones in front of you.

Thinking of this, Shi Yi turned over his hand and took out a jade box.

The jade box is cold to the touch, and if someone else touches this jade box, it may only take a moment for the fingers to be frostbitten.

However, as a master of the Ice Dao Cultivator, he naturally didn't need to worry about this.

Shi Yi ran the exercises, and inhaled the cold qi wrapped in the jade box back into his body.

After doing all this, Shi Yi opened the jade box.

I saw that inside the jade box, plants with umbrella-shaped flowers were lying in it.

That's right, what is contained in this jade box is the ghost umbrella reserved by Shi Yi in advance.

The power of the ghost umbrella is to wrap the soul and produce the body.

The body produced by the ghost umbrella is derived from the bones it absorbs as nutrients.

At the beginning, Shi Yi was through this characteristic of the ghost umbrella, when the sect master of the Blood God Sect slaughtered Lin Ao's descendants.

With the ashes that seeped into the ground after the death of Lin Ao's descendants, a shell with his blood was shaped for his people.

It was precisely because of this body that Lin Ao was able to get out of trouble.

And according to Shi Yi's previous judgment, this large sea of white bones in front of him.

Most of them should be people from the Jiuli tribe of the Chiyou tribe, and they have the same bloodline as Chiyou.

Although among the millions of corpses, the number of bloodline people may be one in ten thousand, or even none.

However, it is certain that these bones have the same Jiuli blood as Chi You.

It's just that because the blood in the body is thin, you can't become a bloodliner.

Even if he hadn't seen the situation in the ancient period with his own eyes, Shi Yi could deduce that the bloodline in the ancient period was by no means as ubiquitous as cabbage.

It's like the composition of the Sanmiao clan and the Gonggong clan, the bloodlines of these two criminals.

Those who can really awaken the ability of the bloodline are always the few in the ethnic group.

And, over time, the bloodline will be diluted in the transmission.

Therefore, there are always only a few people who can really awaken and become bloodline.

Even in the era of the Yellow Emperor, when the bloodline was at its peak, this number was destined not to be too much.

The reason why Shi Yi thinks that among the million corpses here, there are almost no people of the Jiuli clan bloodline.

That's because although the Jiuli clan has nothing to do with the Yellow Emperor's bloodline, Chi You and Emperor Yan were once from the same tribe.

In other words, the Jiuli tribe of Chiyou has the same origin as the bloodline of Emperor Yan.

Although the main force that defeated Chi You was the Yellow Emperor, Emperor Yan also played a great role in it.

Because of the different bloodlines, even if the inheritance blood beads of those who have obtained the bloodline of the Jiuli clan, the Yellow Emperor's side cannot use them.

However, Emperor Yan's side had no such concerns.

In that case, most of the captives of the Jiuli clan's bloodline must have fallen into the hands of Emperor Yan's side.

After all, devouring the blood beads of the inheritance to purify one's own bloodline was not the first thing that Shi Yi initiated.

Bloodlineers are also willing to devour the blood-beads of the same origin in order to make themselves stronger.

Therefore, although there are white bones in this place, it is impossible for there to be inheritance blood beads.

If it was before obtaining the ghost umbrella, the white bones of the Jiuli clan in this place would not bring any substantial benefits to Shi Yi.

At most, Shi Yi could only sigh at the cruelty of the war between the Yellow Emperor and Chi You through the sea of bones in front of him.

However, after Shi Yi obtained the ghost umbrella, the situation became different.

The ghost umbrella can condense the physical body, which means that Shi Yi can pass the ghost umbrella.

Using the white bones in front of him as nutrients, he created a real body with the blood of Jiuli.

In this process, if the bones are scarce, in order to obtain nutrients, the ghost umbrella will naturally not be picky.

The Oni Umbrella will use all the bones as nutrients and cultivate a body modeled after the nutrients it absorbs.

At the beginning, Shi Yi was able to use the ghost umbrella to create a body that was exactly the same as himself.

And took this opportunity to steal beams and change pillars in Hanjiaxing, which was done with this characteristic of the ghost umbrella.

And everything has a natural tendency to seek advantages and avoid harms, even plants that cannot move, and this is no exception.

If you place a plant in the shade, it will turn branches or vines.

Stretching towards a sunny place is the embodiment of its nature of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.

In the same way, although the ghost umbrella has special abilities, it also has the nature of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.

When there is no corpse as nutrients, the part of the Lin family's descendants that was burned to ashes by the sect master of the Blood God Sect can be reduced.

However, in the face of the sea-like corpses in front of him, when the ghost umbrella can choose nutrients at will, it will still settle.

Of course not, the ghost umbrella is driven by the nature of seeking advantages and avoiding harm.

Only the most essential part of the bones will be selected as nutrients.

And once the ghost umbrella begins to condense the body, it will also absorb this part by it, and the most essential part will be used as nutrients.

After all, the way the ghost umbrella grows is through the body.

Giving the offspring a better environment for the plants to grow, so that the ghost umbrella will devote all its resources to the cultivation of the shell.

And it is this characteristic of the ghost umbrella that will inadvertently achieve the effect of purifying the bloodline.

When the ghost umbrella gathers the essence of this sea of bones, the blood vein part of it will also be absorbed by the ghost umbrella.

In this way, the body of the Jiuli clan condensed by the ghost umbrella.

It is no longer an ordinary Jiuli clan with impure blood, but a Jiuli clan that has gathered the essence of many corpses here.

The body produced in this way, if the bloodline purity is not high, it is really strange.

As soon as he thought of this, Shi Yi began to spread ghost umbrellas in this sea of bones.

This specific sowing position was tried many times by Shi Yi in his dreams.

Soon, Shi Yi finished spreading the ghost umbrella.

These ghost umbrellas, which had already been put into the ghost things by Shi Yi, began to quickly open their vine-like roots as soon as they landed, frantically absorbing the nutrients of the corpses in the sea of bones.

Only in such a place where there are many bones will the net-like roots of the ghost umbrella be fully opened.

And once fully opened, the size of the root of the ghost umbrella is also very amazing.

Just five ghost umbrellas actually covered this entire sea of bones.

And the planting location chosen by Shi Yi happened to completely separate these five ghost umbrellas.

So that the rhizomes of these ghost umbrellas do not overlap each other, resulting in competition for nutrients.

After absorbing nutrients that lasted for an hour, these ghost umbrellas finally began to condense their bodies.

About another stick of incense passed, and five bodies with the bloodline of the Jiuli clan were created.

Because at the beginning of the creation of these bodies, Shi Yi used the ability of the blood to forcibly dissipate the ghosts in the ghost umbrella.

These ghosts originally existed as the spirits of these bodies.

Now that there are no souls, it is naturally impossible for these bodies to live.

Or in the whole process of being made by the ghost umbrella, they never survived.

There were no spirits, they were just corpses from the beginning.

There is no breath, and the purity of the bloodline of these five bodies is relatively high.

So the blood in their bodies began to precipitate on their own.

I saw that although these bodies died, the blood in their bodies began to condense continuously.

With that bright red color, Shi Yi could even see through their skin the scene of blood converging towards the heart.

Soon, the blood essence condensed in the heart began to accumulate through the skin and out of the body.

The moment it touched the air, the originally red liquid quickly turned black and condensed into small balls.

This kind of form is basically the same as what Shi Yi has seen, and the blood beads inherited by the criminals are basically the same.

After a while, Shi Yi's hands had five more Jiuli Clan Inheritance Blood Beads.

Looking at the inheritance blood bead in his hand, Shi Yi couldn't help but be very happy.

After all, Shi Yi's original purpose in entering the underground palace of this witch country was to obtain the inheritance blood beads.

However, Shi Yi himself didn't expect it.

Originally, I wanted to obtain the Wuqi Inheritance Blood Bead, but I didn't expect to get the Jiuli Inheritance Blood Bead with the same origin as Chi You.

But it doesn't matter, there's nothing wrong with Chiyou being Chiyou.

In Shi Yi's opinion, as the lifelong enemy of the Yellow Emperor, Chi You's Jiuli bloodline is not too bad.

On the contrary, Shi Yi was looking forward to what kind of abilities the bloodline clone could obtain after fusing the bloodline of the Jiuli Clan.

In ancient times, the Yellow Emperor's side and the Jiuli clan were of different bloodlines, so they could not devour the Jiuli clan's inheritance blood beads.

However, now, Shi Yi does not need to think about this problem.

Emperor Huang and Emperor Yan were the co-masters who ruled the world in ancient times.

After countless years of precipitation and fusion, it can be said that the blood of the two has long existed in everyone's body.

In other words, almost everyone in the world has the blood of Yan Huang.

This includes Shi Yi, and also includes the four sins of the last descendant of the bloodline.

Broadly speaking, all people are descendants of the two emperors of Yan and Huang.

It is precisely because of the origin of the system that anyone who obtains the inheritance blood bead can swallow the blood bead and gain ability.

The reason why the monks dislike the inheritance of blood beads is only because the bloodline and the cultivator are not compatible.

And it's not because the inheritance of blood beads is not compatible with one's own bloodline.

Shi Yi was able to use the bloodline clone to obtain the power of the bloodline of the criminals, also because Shi Yi originally had the blood of Yan Huang, which was no different from the four sins.

And the bloodline of the Jiuli clan, as the existence of the same origin as Emperor Yan, has the blood of Yan and Huang.

Naturally, it can also be inherited like inheriting the bloodline of the four sins, without any suspense.

Shi Yi was convinced of this, otherwise Shi Yi would not have gone to such great lengths to obtain the Jiuli Clan's inheritance blood beads.

Shi Yi looked at the five inheritance blood beads in his hand, although he really wanted to let the bloodline clone swallow them now,

But Shi Yi also has a clear sense of importance, and now this Great Witch's Tomb has not yet been completed by exploring, and it is a bit inappropriate to waste time to engage in other things.

Moreover, Shi Yi is not the only one in this place, and Shi Yi does not want to expose his secrets in front of others.

Although it was useless to ask himself to expose his secrets, Shi Yi had just made a series of performances, which had already surprised Cao Guang secretly.

Even if Cao Guang doesn't know the ghost umbrella, he only needs to use the exercises to deduce it, and he can understand the role of the ghost umbrella.

The function of the ghost umbrella, which can reshape the physical body, is also of great significance even for high-level monks.

This alone means that the ghost umbrella is definitely a rarity.

However, the person in front of him silently took out five ghost umbrellas, and after some operation, it was just to obtain five inheritance blood beads.

Such an act made Cao Guang's heart ache, and he couldn't help but guess the identity of Shi Yi.

Crushing the strength of the same level, the luxury of treating precious plants as consumables, and the understanding of this Witch Kingdom underground palace like an unpredictable prophet.

Cao Guang couldn't help but wonder if Shi Yi was the core disciple cultivated by the secret force.

If Shi Yi knew about Cao Guang and imagined his identity to deviate, I am afraid he would be quite speechless.

However, Shi Yi didn't know this.

After collecting the blood beads of the Jiuli Clan, Shi Yi continued to take the lead.

After about a cup of tea, Shi Yi and the others finally came to the entrance of the Great Witch's Tomb......
