Chapter 357: Phalanx of Stones
He Yinuo's doubts were even stronger, and he was uncertain in his heart, whether the Mu family had been completely wiped out. But he didn't want to ask directly, for fear that the other party would be suspicious, so he asked in a different way and step by step.
Ding Huai sighed again and didn't speak for a while, as if he didn't want to mention the past again, and he didn't want to recall the tragic situation of the year.
He looked ahead, the fire swaying, exuding a faint warmth, like a pair of gentle palms soothing the wounds in his heart.
Seeing this, He Yinuo said with a little apology: "It was abrupt, so that Brother Ding recalled this sad past." If Brother Ding doesn't want to say more, he won't force it anymore. Water under the bridge. ”
A faint smile appeared on Ding Huai's face, and he slowly shook his head, revealing a sense of relief, but his gaze remained on the flame in front of him.
"It's okay, it's been buried in my heart for too long, and it's haunted me like a nightmare, keeping my body, mind and soul on the edge of the abyss. Perhaps, if you say it, it will be much better. ”
"That being the case, listen to you!"
"If you mention the plague corpse change back then, Ding also has a lot of confusion, the biggest of which is where did this plague corpse come from? overnight, it can converge with all the plates of the Nanwei Continent!"
"At that time, the first time I saw these so-called plague corpses, I thought they were very similar to puppets. They have one thing in common, they are both walking corpses that are not governed by their own will. However, it is the same. From a normal person, he became a plague corpse, and it was only a matter of counting the time. And I have seen with my own eyes that my relatives and friends, one after another, have become plagued corpses. One by one, they pounced on me!"
There was a great heaviness in his words, but there was a subtle light in his eyes.
"And just in the nick of time, someone saved me. Later, with the help of the Lotus Sect and his party, I successfully escaped from the Nanxu Continent. However, no one in my tribe has been spared except me. ”
"Then what are these plague corpses and how did they become them?" He Yinuo was even more curious.
"These plague corpses have all been turned into living people, but they have long lost their humanity. They are ferocious and murderous, but whenever they see a living person, they are like a raging beast, desperately pounce on it, bite, hit, and devour the flesh and blood of the living in the most primitive way and with the most primitive desire, until the other person dies!"
"And once a living person is bitten by it, it will only take a few breaths to become another plague corpse, and then with the same desire, pounce on the next living person. And because of the nature of this contagion, it spread as quickly as a plague, and later it was collectively referred to as the plague corpse. ”
"The biggest difference between these plague corpses and puppets is that the plague corpses are not completely unconscious, they retain the instinctive consciousness of human beings, and the distorted human nature. All that's left of them is the thirst for flesh and blood, and the hunt!"
"These plague corpses move extremely quickly, and mortals have no chance of surviving when they encounter them. And even a powerful monk has a terrible headache in the face of these plague corpses. In addition, even a mortal transformed into a plague corpse is strong enough to rival a low-level monk. And if a cultivator is infected into a plague corpse, then its strength has increased by at least a hundred times, so whenever a plague corpse appears, it can quickly infect an area, and the speed will increase explosively. ”
"And with the increase of plague corpses, Rao is cultivation is great power to reach the sky, and there is no way to escape the attack of the plague corpses, and in the end it will only become a more powerful plague corpse. If this vicious circle continues, you can imagine how the Nanxu Continent was wiped out overnight. Ding Huai's words were filled with deep fear.
"Then where did this first plague corpse come from?" He Yinuo thought naturally.
"I don't know, but that's what I've been investigating for years. I want to find out what happened on the Nanwei continent back then, and who created this first plague corpse. ”
His emotions gradually calmed down, and his face gradually turned cold, and then he said in a straight voice: "It's just that all this is chaotic and complicated, before the outbreak of the plague corpse mutiny, there were three major forces that appeared near the Guci tribe. The Lotus Sect, the Ten Thousand Poison Sect, and the Ghost Face Man! Among them, the Ten Thousand Poison Sect is the most suspicious, but after so many years of investigation, there is still no clue. ”
When He Yinuo heard this, there were even more doubts in his heart at this moment than him, and the most direct thing was, how did Mu Bingyu and Mu Binghan survive this disaster?
At the same time, he had another question in his heart, and he asked again: "Brother Ding, I still have a question. As you said, this plague corpse is an unprecedentedly powerful thing, and once it is infected, Rao has the power of the heavens, and it is difficult to stop them, so how did all this finally subside? If it is as terrible as you say, will not this land of eternal life also fall?"
Ding Huai didn't answer him immediately, just looked at the bright and uncertain flames in a daze.
He Yinuo didn't urge him, he was also looking at the rising flames in front of him, and his face was red.
However, after a while, Ding Huai said coldly: "Brother Tianjiao, you are not from the Land of Eternal Life, are you?"
When He Yinuo heard this, he did not deny it, and after a moment of silence, he calmly replied: "I can't hide it, I came from the land of the afterlife, but in order to find an elixir, I crossed the danger of annihilation and set foot on this land of eternal life!"
Ding Huai nodded, there was not the slightest fluctuation on his face, and under the cover of the firelight, he couldn't see what he was thinking.
"It's no wonder. Brother Tianjiao didn't know much about the Land of Eternal Life, so naturally he wouldn't know much about the Nanwei Continent. According to Brother Tianjiao's cognition, perhaps the Continent of Strife we are going to is the most mysterious continent in the Land of Eternal Life, after all, it is the place where the Eight Evil Lands are lost, and there are all kinds of legends. But ,,,"
Ding Huai's eyes showed a glimmer of essence, and then he said in a deep voice: "Actually, the most mysterious continent in the Land of Eternal Life is the Nanwei Continent, compared to the Continent of Discord, there are only a lot more legends circulating on it!"
"To be precise, this Nanwei Continent does not actually belong to the continent, but a place against the sky! This space is extremely vast and endless. In that space, there are dozens of plates, suspended in mid-air, motionless, and disorderly and orderly. It's called the Stone Phalanx!"
When He Yinuo heard this, he looked at Ding Huai with unconcealable surprise in his eyes. He had never heard of such a strange continent.
And the place of the reverse void in the other party's mouth, he is not so strange, and it can even be said to be unforgettable. Because within the spiritual space of the Spirit Race, outside the thirteen lands of the Spirit Race, it is this place against the sky.
Mu Bingyu fell in that place against the sky back then, but I don't know how he was resurrected later, and He Yinuo didn't ask about it back then. Therefore, he was well aware of the danger of this place against the sky.
"Brother Ding, I have also heard of the Reverse Sky Land, and it is rumored that this Reverse Sky Land can decompose any object, so no life can survive in it. So how did these ten families survive unharmed? Could it be that it has something to do with the chaotic stone phalanx?"
Ding Huai nodded and replied, "Yes, as Brother Tianjiao said, this place against the sky is an absolute forbidden space realm, which will destroy all life. And if you want to survive in this space unharmed, you can only use the chaotic stone phalanx as the base. ”
"There is nothing special about the Stone Phalanx itself, the only peculiarity is that it can ignore the rules of the Void and quietly suspend in that space without being disintegrated. In the phalanx, the size of the boulders is different, and the difference is huge, the small one is a hundred zhang in diameter, and the large one is tens of thousands of zhang. The surface of the boulder is flat, like dozens of continents suspended in space, providing a platform for life. The ten families are distributed on ten plates. ”
"Then how did they cross the Void Land and ascend to this chaotic stone phalanx?" He Yinuo continued to ask.
"It is rumored that a long time ago, there was an illusory bridge between the chaotic stone phalanx and the earth, just like the rainbow version of the ethereal existence, emitting colorful light, so the ancestors named it the rainbow bridge. ”
"For countless thousands of years, this rainbow bridge has become the only passage connecting the Chaotic Stone Phalanx with the mainland. Ding Huai's words were full of amazement, and he was also lamenting the magic of this creation, as well as the mystery and magnificence of the Rainbow Bridge.
"According to Brother Ding, this rainbow bridge is an ethereal thing, illusory and unreal, how can it become a bridge between the continents?
And Ding Huai's words were full of peculiarity, and he replied: "What Brother Tianjiao said is very true, this rainbow bridge is an illusory thing, it can't be a passage to come and go, and it can't provide shelter for people walking in the land of the sky. But that's where his magic comes in. ”
"It is rumored that tens of thousands of years ago, our ancestors also tried to set foot on this illusory rainbow bridge, but no one succeeded at first. And just when people began to lose hope about it, suddenly a man stepped on the Rainbow Bridge first, and did not fall down, nor was he swallowed by the Void Land, and he became the first person to climb the Phalanx of Rocks. ”
Later, the rainbow bridge showed signs of condensation, so the crowd followed closely and stepped into the phalanx together, becoming the first pioneers on the phalanx. In the Phalanx of Troubled Times, there are teleportation devices between different plates, which can freely shuttle between different boulder plates while avoiding the invasion of the Void Land. They formed their own civilization and founded the Ten Families. ”
A few years later, the Rainbow Bridge turned from solidification to virtuality again, and began to dissipate until a few years later, it completely disappeared into the Nanxu Continent. Since then, the Nanxu Continent has been separated from the outside world again, and the chaotic stone phalanx has become a legend that people talk about. ”
