Chapter 176: Conscience is hard to persuade the damned
Legend has it that many eras ago, when all the realms were still combined into one world, there were immortals in this world. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info is not the kind of earth immortal of Xuanyuan Lao Dao, but a true immortal, a golden immortal, a Da Luo golden immortal and the like, which can really destroy the world with a gesture. The Demon God, on the other hand, is a terrifying existence like these immortals, who can cross the void and burst the stars.
In legend, it was the invasion of the demon gods that set off a great battle between immortals and demons, tearing the whole world apart. After the Great War, the fragments of the world formed a domain realm, floating in the endless void, and some tiny fragments were refined into secret realms.
At the same time, these realms can no longer carry the power of immortals, and since then, there have been no true immortals in various domains, and earth immortals have become supreme. As for where the original immortals went, there are also various legends, some say that they were destroyed with the demon god, some say that they counterattacked the demon god's lair, and some say that the immortals worked together to open up the fairy world and so on.
Whether the legend is true or not, no one can verify it now, but some relics in various domains can at least prove that the immortal and demon war really existed. Not to mention other realms, in the Shenhua realm alone, there are many forbidden areas that exist in an unknown number of eras. There are some forbidden areas, and even the earth immortals have been buried in them, which can already prove that the earth immortals are indeed not invincible in the world.
And the land of the demon that the high priest said was a famous forbidden area in the 100,000 mountains. This forbidden area, from the outside, is about a radius of thousands of miles. This area, if it is a Jindan Realm cultivator, the sword flies into the air, and it won't take long for it to traverse.
However, once you enter the restricted area, you will find that it is a fool's dream to fly out. If you are lucky enough, you may step in and out in one step, just like using the method of shifting, one step at a time. But if you are unlucky, I am afraid that after entering, it will be difficult to get out for the rest of your life.
This is not because of any formation labyrinth, but because the time and space in the forbidden area are extremely chaotic and distorted, just like countless space-time fragments are superimposed and intertwined, and there is almost no law to speak of. It can be said that the high priest was able to escape from it back then, even if he lost his cultivation because of this, it was definitely a stroke of luck.
"However, the chaotic distortion of time and space is only one of the dangers of this demonic land, and it is nothing compared to the real dangers. When the high priest introduced this, his face actually showed a little palpitation, and he said in a deep voice: "The most terrifying thing is actually the demonized creatures in the forbidden area, as well as the corpses of countless strong people who have been buried in it. ”
Ye Zan frowned, and couldn't help asking, "Demonized creatures, the corpses of the strong, what are they?"
"The so-called demonic creatures are creatures that are corroded by the demonic qi in the forbidden area, even ordinary beasts, after being eroded by the demonic qi, they will become quite terrifying. And the corpses of the strong, after the erosion of demonic energy, will also be revived, but the soul has been extinguished and has become like a walking corpse, but it has stronger power than before death. The High Priest explained in a low tone.
"So, your injury?" Ye Zan thought of something.
The high priest nodded and said, "Yes, the wound on my body came from the corpse of a demon king. ”
After listening to these introductions, Ye Zan was a little silent for a while, but in fact, his heart was a little shaken. In that forbidden area, it is obviously impossible to have only one corpse of the demon king, after all, there have been countless eras, and who knows how many strong people have died in it.
Seeing Ye Zan's hesitation, the high priest continued: "Don't think that after you enter, you must be on the periphery of the forbidden area, and you won't encounter much danger. You know, in the case of space-time distortion, it is more likely that as soon as you step into it, you will appear next to the corpse of a strong man. ”
The danger of this demonic land actually comes from this uncertainty, unlike some places where the greatest danger may be hidden in the depths, as long as you don't get close, you won't encounter it. And in this demonic land, maybe as soon as you enter, you will appear in the deepest part, and you won't even have time to react, and you will be crushed by a terrifying existence in an instant.
"Now that I know and have told you, are you still going there?" asked the high priest.
However, after hesitating for a moment, Ye Zan nodded and said, "I know the high priest's worries, but I still plan to go over and take a look. ”
And after Qi Qianjun listened to this, his face was also a little worried, and when he heard that Ye Zan still insisted on going, he couldn't help but persuade: "Senior uncle, I think, let's think about it again, that place is indeed not suitable for adventure with the cultivation of our waiting." ”
"Alas, that's not an adventure, it's a death!" Seeing that Ye Zan was still insisting, the high priest couldn't help but increase his tone a little.
It's just that, after listening to the persuasion of the two, Ye Zan smiled and said: "The current cultivation is not good, so what kind of cultivation is needed? Even the strength of the high priest is also close to death, and there are many strong people who are stronger than the high priest, and they are also buried in it, what kind of cultivation is enough?"
Ye Zan is not afraid of death, but sometimes if you want to get something, you have to take some risks. Besides, the high priest was able to escape, but the strong people who were more or less powerful than the high priest were buried in it, which shows that strength is not the only criterion for determining the size of the risk. Who said that if you build a foundation realm, you can't go in, and if you go in, you must die?
What's more, in Ye Zan's hands, there is also the weapon of science and technology, whether it is a weapon or detection technology, it is not comparable to those demon kings or human powerhouses.
"But ......," the high priest tried to persuade again.
But Ye Zan raised his hand to stop the other party, and said with a little apology: "High priest, don't persuade anymore, I know what I'm doing, opportunities and dangers always coexist in this world, if you are afraid of danger and stop moving, I'm afraid you will miss countless opportunities." ”
"Alas, I didn't think so back then, but if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't have lasted a few years. The high priest said with emotion, of course, it was also to persuade Ye Zan.
"But it was the strange extraterritorial stones you brought out that attracted me here, and where are the causes and effects so easy to figure out. After Ye Zan made the decision, he also seemed much more relaxed, without the previous entanglement.
"Well, since you've decided, then the old decay will accompany you for a while. The high priest said suddenly.
But as soon as he heard this, Ye Zan was not moved, but immediately became a little anxious, and hurriedly said: "The high priest doesn't have to be like this, your injury is just right, and it will take time to recover, not to mention that the people in this village are still counting on you to support this piece of heaven for them." ”
Just kidding, if the high priest also went in, in Yezan's opinion, it would really be to die. When he got inside, he had to be restrained in everything he did, and those technological things were even more difficult to take out casually, so what was the point of this adventure?
What's more, if he really encounters an irresistible danger, Ye Zan can bring Qi Qianjun into the other dimensional space, but can he also bring the high priest in? You know, Qi Qianjun has made an oath with his divine soul, at least he will never betray the Yuqing Sect, and can the high priest also make such an oath?
"What's the matter, Sect Master Ye looks down on the strength of the old decay?" said the high priest with a frown.
"No, no, no, don't misunderstand, High Priest!" Ye Zan waved his hand, thought for a moment and said: "My Yuqing Sect has some special methods, which are really not suitable for being used in front of others, if the High Priest really thinks about me, please don't embarrass me." ”
Ye Zan's words are a bit direct, but there is no way to do it if he is not direct, otherwise he doesn't know how much it will cost to push and persuade him. So, it's better to say it directly, I have special means not to be known to outsiders, and your old man should not follow.
What's more, to put it mildly, judging from the description of the high priest, in that demonic land, one more high priest does not mean that it is one more safe, if it is an earth immortal Dao ancestor, it is almost the same.
And hearing Ye Zan say this, the high priest was not angry, and after being silent for a moment, he said helplessly: "Okay, then when do you want to go, the old man will send you over." ”
"It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, I think it's today. "What Ye Zan can prepare, he has already prepared, and there is no point in waiting for a few more days.
Without further ado, the high priest took Ye Zan and Qi Qianjun with him, and a huge jasper cicada appeared under his feet, carrying the three of them towards the 100,000 mountains. In less than a moment, the three of them had reached the sky above a strange place, and looking down from the sky, it looked like a huge crater, with no end in sight in the distance.
The high priest led the two men to the ground, several kilometers away from the edge of the crater. However, Ye Zan and Qi Qianjun could already feel that a cold breath seemed to seep into the bone marrow, making people shudder.
Although in the eyes of the high priest, with the cultivation of Ye Zan and Qi Qianjun, this trip was like sending them to death, he still carefully advised: "This place is the edge of the land of the devil's fall, due to the overflow of demonic energy, there is no grass around, and there are often people in the devil's path who draw demonic qi from this marginal place. Some people will be aroused by demons and then lured into the forbidden area. Therefore, if you wait in the forbidden area, even if you see a living person, you must be extremely careful. ”
"Thank you High Priest for reminding me, I'll be cautious, High Priest, please come back. Ye Zan thanked him and began to tactfully tease people.
The high priest shook his head helplessly and said, "Then I will go back first, I hope to see you one day." ”
When the high priest achieved this step, he was already considered benevolent and righteous, and he didn't say anything more at the moment, and the illusion of the jasper cicada flew into the sky, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
"Uncle Shi, what are we going to do next, do we want to go in?" Qi Qianjun asked.
Ye Zan smiled and said, "Don't worry, just wait for a while." ”
As he spoke, Ye Zan came to the edge of the forbidden area and took out a small box from the Qiankun ring. Open the box, and inside are neatly arranged electronic flies, which are the best tools for exploring the unknown. (To be continued.) )
