Chapter 16: A Sea of Clouds
"Let's go, explore the center again, and see what kind of treasures are left in here!" After quickly confirming that this independent space was more than ninety percent sure that it was the ancient ruins that he and the others were looking for, Ye Qiuli and the Murong sisters did not hesitate any longer, and when they packed their bags, they galloped straight towards the deepest part of this mysterious space.
Although this independent space is not necessarily as huge as the giant planet outside, its overall area is still very amazing, from one end to the other, there is at least a distance of tens of thousands of kilometers, which is not inexpansive and vast. Anyway, with Ye Qiu's clutch stage realm and the powerful strength of the Tribulation Period cultivation, at a glance, there was no way to find out where its specific boundary was.
"Well, let's act together, don't break around at will, so as not to trigger any dangerous formations, prohibitions and the like. The decision was set, and everyone naturally stopped stopping for a moment, even if they greeted each other, and then moved freely, drifting directly towards the target location.
It is very likely that this place is a special secret realm of the sea of clouds, although the nature is similar to the Langya Wonderland that Ye Qiuli once visited, but the environment in it is very different. Langya Wonderland is a valley-like secret land surrounded by mountains, and its boundary is the towering mountains and mountains with no end in sight. And this special secret realm is very similar to the planet outside, and it is also the appearance of a vast ocean.
At this time, Ye Qiuli and the others were flying on the calm sea surface of the ancient well without waves, if it weren't for the fact that they knew that they had entered a magical small world of independent space, if it weren't for the fact that the heaven and earth aura in the surrounding space was obviously a little different from the outside world, they wouldn't be able to judge at all, what kind of place they were in, whether it was the previous experience of crossing the forbidden channel, it was simply an illusion.
Yes, the environment they felt at this time was not at all unusual from what they had encountered for a long time before, and there was nothing else to attract attention except sea water and sea water.
Of course, if there is any difference, in addition to the aura of heaven and earth permeating the void and the deeper differences in the laws of heaven and earth, the only strange thing is that the density of islands here is much larger than that of the outside world, and you can encounter several of them if you fly casually.
Moreover, unlike ordinary islands, the aura of heaven and earth near these islands is obviously richer and deeper than other places, and the momentum and attributes revealed in them are also slightly different, entangled and mixed together, and together they have evolved into the kind of situation that everyone feels, no matter which point is missing, it may cause unpredictable changes in the natural environment in the entire independent space.
Obviously, these islands do not exist independently, but under the connection of some special things, together form an unbreakable whole, each island, not only interdependent, indispensable, but also unconsciously influence each other, closely linked, directly connected into a mysterious network structure, firmly enveloping the entire independent space completely within its own sphere of influence.
According to the observation and speculation of Ye Qiuli and others, that kind of connection is not a mysterious thing, it is just a top-level formation with a very large coverage, and the large and small islands they discovered before are exactly where the formation bases that make up the formation structure are located, although they have not yet figured out how many of those formation bases are, but their number is definitely not small, at least there are tens or nearly hundreds.
"The senior master who left this secret realm is definitely not a simple person, even if it is placed in the upper worlds such as immortals, demons, demons and Buddhas, I am afraid that he is also a peerless master with a great reputation, otherwise, it will definitely not be possible to use some ordinary islands to form such a large-scale, magically effective top-level array!" After watching while flying, and gradually figuring out the composition of the entire secret realm space, Ye Qiuli couldn't help but say loudly with emotion.
"Indeed, this independent space is at the top of the innate spirit vein, and it gives full play to the magical ability of that thing itself, ordinary cultivators, no matter how strong their cultivation strength is, the realm is not enough, and the means are insufficient, they still can't expect a single bit!" Hearing Ye Qiuli's emotion, Murong Piaoxue on the side couldn't help but nod his head again and again.
As an ancient demon cultivator with a long heritage, and also a top cultivation wizard with innate Dao body qualifications, Murong Piaoxue and Murong Yanran's sensitivity to innate aura naturally far exceeded that of ordinary people, and they had just stepped into this secret realm space and discovered the existence of those things. At this time, combined with this huge formation covering the entire space, they had a clearer understanding of its specific origin.
Obviously, this independent space is the place that the predecessors of the masters opened up based on the innate spirit veins and using the super large array as a means. Among them, not to mention other things for the time being, just the huge space of this independent small world has already directly revealed the super strength of that ancient immortal, and ordinary cultivators can't compare to it at all.
"In this place, even if there is no rare treasure left, just the rare and almost extinct innate aura is enough for us to benefit from inexhaustibly, and we will definitely not run in vain in this exploration activity!" Hearing the conversation between Ye Qiuli and Murong Piaoxue, Murong Yanran, who was concentrating on observing the environment in the secret realm, also quickly smiled, and his tone was full of joy.
Ancient cultivators like them who inherited the ancient exercises, when they cultivated, they just needed the assistance of countless innate spiritual qi, and at this time, they accidentally found a place where there were innate spiritual veins, and the huge meaning and endless value in it really couldn't be measured in words, no wonder she was so happy, the whole person's expression and movements were filled with a feeling of relaxation and joy, and she felt it clearly as soon as she came into contact.
"Indeed, when we have thoroughly searched this place, we can definitely gain a lot by cultivating here for a while. Hearing Murong Yanran's joyful laughter, Ye Qiuli's mood became much brighter, and he nodded in agreement.
Although the various exercises he cultivated were not real innate exercises, he could cultivate smoothly even without innate aura, but with the assistance of this magical substance, it was obviously easier to achieve satisfactory results, even if he jumped one or two levels out of thin air, it was not impossible.
The special cultivation experience in Langya Wonderland, he has always remembered it vividly. Originally, he thought that he would never have the opportunity to come into contact with such a thing as innate aura, but who knows, in this special secret realm, which is very likely to be the sea of clouds, he actually discovered the existence of an innate spiritual vein again, and the scale is much larger than the previous one, and his chance and luck can indeed be said to be extremely good.
"Judging by the arrangement of these islands, we should soon be able to approach its core, and the true face of this magical secret realm will soon be officially revealed to us. After briefly exchanging a few words with the Murong sisters and expressing the excitement and emotion in their hearts a little, Ye Qiuli quickly concentrated again, focusing all his attention on the increasingly obvious changes in the environment.
After such a long time of exploration, they have been very close to the core of this secret place, and the island that appears in the eyes of everyone is not only getting bigger and bigger, but also the traces of human beings in it are becoming more and more obvious, and there are even many quaint buildings that look like artificial acts at a glance.
Obviously, this place was already completely certain to be the ancient ruins that everyone was looking for, and apart from that, absolutely no one else would go to such great lengths to leave their cultivation place here in this way.
That kind of magical secret realm that can be traced back to ancient times, one is already a very remarkable thing, and there is no possibility of two or more on the same planet at the same time, even if this heart planet itself is very special.
The reason for this does not need to be thought about at all, and the sentence "How can others snore on the side of the couch!" can be clearly described. This is the most basic law of human selfishness, no matter where it is placed, it is the same, and in the cultivation world, it is no exception.
How can the top masters who can build an independent small world easily share the same territory with other people, it is natural that they will completely occupy it early on, and those who have nothing to do with it will not have the slightest chance to open up another independent space in their vicinity;
Therefore, judging from the current situation, the magical secret realm that Ye Qiuli and they accidentally discovered was 100% the legendary ancient ruins in the sea of clouds, and there would definitely be no other changes in it.
"This is definitely the sea of clouds we want to find, and that ancient dragon whale has done a good thing, successfully helping us determine the target range, so as not to waste more time on the search!" Looking at the man-made structures on the islands under her feet, Murong Yanran, who was becoming more and more excited, couldn't help laughing, and in her words, the resentment of the ancient dragon whale who accidentally took away her dragon tooth piercing arrow quickly decreased a few points.
"......" Hearing Murong Yanran's excited laughter, although Murong Piaoxue didn't say much, the expression on her face also became more and more brilliant, and the irrepressible smile of joy could be clearly felt from afar.
Shuttle through the endless starry sky, across the two worlds, spend immeasurable efforts, after countless hardships, finally succeeded in finding the legendary ancient ruins of the sea of clouds, a hard work, and finally got enough satisfactory harvest, the joy and excitement, really can not be described in words, only secretly in the heart, constantly reminiscing and tasting, each can bring people a unique and unique feeling.
