Text Chapter 81: Xuanxu Continent
"Okay, I'll tell you about the Xuanxu Continent. Yan Wuyi is very interested, he is very interested in these strange things, astronomy and geography, in addition to cultivation on weekdays, this is the greatest interest, but the people around him are few people in the same way, all of them are people who have painstakingly studied martial arts, and they can't talk about anything that interests them. Seeing that Le Qi and Huang Jin were so interested today, he was also very interested.
"This Xuanxu Continent, if it is divided by region, it can be divided into ten major regions! They are the Eastern, Southern, Central, and Northern Continents, as well as the four seas of Heaven, Earth, Xuan, and Void, and there are two regions known as the recognized forbidden places of the Xuanxu Continent - Ghost Land and Ghost Sea!"
Huang Jin was puzzled and asked, "Why are the southeast, central and northern continents all together, why is there only one western continent missing?"
Yan unintentionally pursed his lips, which were a little dry, and continued to say with interest:
"Hehe, don't worry, listen to me one by one. We, the Black Forest Empire, are in the Northern Continent. Among the four continents, the northern continent has a vast area, ranking first among the four continents in terms of area.
However, this northern continent is extremely wide, but the climate is the worst, especially in the north of the continent, jumping over the ice and snow palace for 100,000 miles, it is covered by ice and snow all year round, the vegetation is scarce, food is scarce, the climate is cold, it is very unsuitable for living creatures, and it is almost a no-man's land. Therefore, in terms of the area of habitable areas of humans and demons, our northern continent is the smallest continent.
There are a total of sixty-six second-rate empires like the Black Forest Empire in the Northern Continent, and these empires are almost the same size as the Black Forest Empire, covering the entire Northern Continent, and their strength is also almost the same.
Further up, there are five first-class empires, they are the Purple Gold Empire, the Snow Sky Empire, the Silver Dragon Empire, the Yanlong Empire, and the Qingxuan Empire. It is said that these five empires are powerful, and the domestic royal family has more than one Sage Ancestor, and there are even some powerful sects that have Sage sages!
Naturally, the territory of the five major empires is by no means comparable to that of second-rate empires, a first-class empire can top at least six or seven second-rate empires, and the Zijin Empire, which has the most power in China, can top ten second-rate empires in terms of area! Moreover, it is still a treasure land, in terms of the richness of Xuan Qi and resources, the entire Northern Continent, except for the territory of the Ice and Snow Palace, I am afraid that there is no stronger than there. This is also the foundation of the Zijin Empire.
The Ice Palace is located in the northernmost part of the Northern Continent, and the territory of the Ice and Snow Palace is called the Ice and Snow World, which is the northernmost one among the forces in the Northern Continent. It is bitterly cold, and the snow and ice do not melt all year round.
She is a well-deserved king of the Northern Continent, however, if anyone thinks that the Ice and Snow World should be the largest in the Northern Continent's power territory, it is wrong. The Ice and Snow World is only the size of one or two Black Forest Empires, only about one-fifth of the Purple Gold Empire! And the number of people is far less than that of the five major empires. ”
"Oh, the territory of the Ice Palace is so small, then their resources are not as good as the five empires, so how can they dominate the Northern Continent?"
Yan unintentionally listened to Le Qi's question, and said with a smile: "Good question! Resources are always closely related to the strength of a force, the resources of the Ice Palace, of course, will not be less, although her territory is small, but she owns the entire north!"
Although that area is a little barren, it is extremely vast, and the yield per unit area is low, but it cannot stand the large base, and there are abundant ice attribute mystical elixirs and demon beasts, which are very suitable for the cultivation of martial artists in the Ice and Snow Palace. In addition, the population base is not too large, and their resources can be said to be the most abundant in the entire Northern Continent!
As for the strength of the Ice Palace, I don't know very well, I only know that the Ice Palace's previous sect master, Bing Xun, had already reached the Holy Realm a few years ago, and it was said that their sect master would step down whenever he reached the Holy Realm. And for so many years, I haven't heard of a single sect master who has not succeeded in advancing to the Holy Realm.
For the remaining three continents, the situation is basically the same. Each continent in the East and South Continents has a hegemon, namely Tianji City and Luohua Valley, while the Middle Continent actually has two super forces, Sky City and Light Domain. The four continents and the five super forces represent the pinnacle of human power in the Xuanxu Continent.
The demon clan is the Dragon Clan's Tianlong Valley in the Heavenly Sea, the Phoenix Clan's Wanhuang Mountain, the Jinpeng Clan's Valley of the Wind, the Xuanwu Clan's Sea Ruins, the Wild Lion Clan's Violent Prairie, and the White Tiger Clan's Ten Thousand Beast Mountain, etc., are distributed on various continents and coexist with the major superpowers of the human race. ”
Speaking of this, Yan unintentionally looked at Huang Jin and said, "Just now, Senior Brother Huang asked why there are continents in the southeast, north, south, and middle, but there is no western continent, in fact, there is." It's just that it's not called the Western Continent, it's the Ghost Land!"
"The Western Continent is one of the two forbidden places of the Xuanxu Continent?" Huang Jin and Le Qi said with some surprise, they originally thought that the Ghost Land should be in some special place, but they didn't expect that it was actually next to the Ordinary Continent, why did such an ordinary place become a forbidden place for the Xuanxu Continent to talk about?
Seeing the surprise of the two, Yan nodded unintentionally and said, "Yes, the Western Continent is the Ghost Land, one of the two forbidden places in the Xuanxu Continent. You should have also heard rumors about the ghost land, the legend: the ghost land is ghostly all year round, eerie and weird, no matter who it is, no matter the strength, those who go deep will die!"
"Regardless of the strength, if it is not for the sage to break in, there is no return?" Le Qi asked suspiciously, the strength of the sage is monstrous, comprehending the rules of heaven and earth, such a strong person is almost invincible, Le Qi is really unimaginable, there is something that can make them lose their lives.
In fact, in the beginning, there were many strong people who did not believe in evil, and among them, there were many saints who moved the world.
Among them, according to historical records, there were once ten powerful saints who joined forces to explore the mysteries of the ghost land. At that time, these ten sages had almost reached the pinnacle of sages, not to mention that the ten joined forces, even if it was one, in addition to the two forbidden places, I am afraid that they could go everywhere in the world, including many large and small forbidden places, and they could not stop their footsteps.
One day, they made an appointment to break into the forbidden land of this continent, these ten saints, confident in their own strength, and ten people went together, and they were not afraid, and the people of the world also believed that this ghost land would definitely not be able to stop these ten invincible saints.
On that day, getting ready, the ten sages marched towards the ghost land under the watchful eyes of countless people to explore the mystery of the ghost land. However, when the people saw them go in, they waited for a month, but they never waited for the ten saints to come out, and even before they heard a single sound of battle, they did not see a trace of mystical luster, and these ten saints disappeared silently!
Only then did people know that this ghost land is a real forbidden land, a place of death, regardless of strength, there is no reason, if you enter it, you will die! Some people speculate that it is the underworld, and there are endless evil ghosts living there!
"The ten invincible saints have also gone and never returned, then this ghost land can no longer be called a forbidden land, it is a dead land!" Huang Jin sighed, even the saints died silently when they entered, not what a dead place is!
Indeed, many people call the two forbidden places. The land of death, the land of ten deaths and lifelessness. At the same time, they are also the two most mysterious areas of the Xuanxu Continent. ”
"In that case, the same is true of the Ghost Sea, no matter the strength, if you enter it, you will die?" Le Qi listened to Yan Wu's words, since the Ghost Sea and the Ghost Land can be called the two forbidden places of the Xuanxu Continent, I am afraid that there is also a place of death and lifelessness.
"Yes, the same is true of the Ghost Sea, if you enter it, you will die! What's even more strange is that the Ghost Land and the Ghost Sea are not far apart, and the closest place is less than a thousand miles apart! Thousands of miles are not far away for ordinary people, not to mention two huge areas, if you look at the map of the Xuanxu Continent, these two Jedi are almost connected. I don't know what the connection is. ”
"And when did these two areas first exist?" Le Qi was very interested in the forbidden land, and couldn't help but ask.
"Nobody can tell, it seems that they have always been there, but they weren't too famous before. Yan shook his head unintentionally, he didn't quite know.
"It's not famous, how could it be? Such a dead place, didn't anyone notice it before?" Huang Jin asked in surprise, he couldn't figure it out at all, how could no one notice when he entered a dead place. If it is said that the people who went in are all dead, and the news cannot be transmitted, so that no one knows about the ghost land, this statement is a bit far-fetched, right? Because, even if the people who went in are dead, there are always insiders who know where these people who have never returned, and there will always be people who will search for it.
"Hehe, it's not that it's unknown, in fact, some powerful demon clans in the Ghost Land and the Ghost Sea have always been recorded. But at that time, the strongest person in the world was only the Xuanwang Realm, and for the martial arts and demon clans at that time, there were too many forbidden places in the Xuanxu Continent!
Not only the Ghost Land and the Ghost Sea, but even the barren land of the Yellow Sea, the frozen land of the Northern Continent and other places are also absolutely forbidden lands, and if you go deep, you will die! At that time, there was no difference between the two forbidden lands and these forbidden lands at all, so naturally no one could realize that they were two absolute forbidden places. Yan unintentionally explained.
Le Qi nodded, this explanation is reasonable, anyway, there is no way to go back when you go in, then there is no difference, I'm afraid, these two places of death are not called dead places, and this is how they came about.
"In that case, after millions of years of development in the Xuanxu Continent, no one really knows what is in the two forbidden lands?" Huang Jin was still unwilling, and wanted to ask something.
"There is no record of it in the books, and I don't know, but I think that if anyone could come out alive from it, it would probably be a god of nothingness. But there is no record in the history books at all, it may be that there are major discoveries in it, and they are made public, or ...... Ay. Yan didn't say anything unintentionally, but sighed, and said silently in his heart: Or, even God has gone and has no return!
When Le Qi and Huang Jin heard this, they could also guess what the next words were, if this is the case, then these two forbidden places can no longer be described as terrible, and the only thing that can be described can only be one word - death!
