Nine hundred years, in the long flow of time, is only a brief moment of the flickering waves.

But this time, for Shen Chong, is a really long and long experience.

When he entered the thick gathering space, Shen Chong was only 35 years old, and at that time, he had only been cultivating for a short period of 21 years, but he had already reached the peak strength of a mortal realm cultivator.

At that time, Shen Chong's cultivation level was in the late stage of Dacheng, but his actual combat power had reached the late stage of the Tribulation.

Now, more than 900 years have passed. In the thick gathering space, Shen Chong resisted the large and small core flows again and again, and after completing the adventure of the four training towers, he went deep into the four dangerous places again and again to accept the mission experience.

Nine hundred years have passed, and Shen Chong has almost no time to be idle.

His footprints have traveled through several mortal realms, and his relatives and friends are also distributed in the three realms of the Yellow Spring Realm, the New Life Realm, and the Core Realm. Nine hundred years have passed, and after a group of his relatives and friends have searched for him but not found him, they all think that he may have already ascended to the immortal realm.

But in fact, Shen Chong still stayed in the mortal realm, and he was in a thick gathering space that no one knew, constantly receiving experience and growth.

On the east side of the thick gathering space, in the misty water, one of the four dangerous places.

Under the cover of the gloomy sky, a tree with a crooked neck coiled and knotted, like a monster with teeth and claws in the dark night.

As soon as a large core flow passed, a black shadow moved above the crooked neck tree, and then jumped up and landed on the water.

The strange thing is that this black shadow figure stood straight on the clear water surface of the swamp, motionless, not only did it not sink, but the whole person actually rose and fell slightly with the fluctuations of the water surface. It was as if this figure was weightless on the water.

The figure looked up at the sky, and only by the faint light could it be seen clearly. This seemingly young man, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and a slight smile on his face, secretly revealed a tenacious and calm aura.

This young man is none other than Shen Chong.

At this moment, Shen Chong gently spread out his palms. One of the crystals, which emitted a brilliant blue light throughout, was revealed.

Looking closely, there was an indifferent mist in the crystal that was as transparent as blue glass, like a small dragon trapped in the crystal, swimming inside the crystal.

"The soul of water, the treasure common to countless water tribe monsters in the misty river, has finally completed the last task of this dangerous place in the east, and this is also the last task of the entire thick gathering space......"

Shen Chong's eyes stared at the spar in his palm and muttered to himself.

around the swamp water. The eyes of some of the aquarium demon beasts that flashed with various colors of light secretly rose out of the water, looking at the 'Water Soul' in Shen Chong's hand, their eyes were burning, but none of the demon beasts dared to find death to attack.

Shen Chong's strong strength and decisive killing had already deterred these water tribe demon beasts.

Shen Chong flipped his palm and put away the 'Soul of Water', tapping the water surface with his toes, and the whole person spread his wings like a peng. In an instant, he flew into the air, and then quickly flew towards the edge of the misty Ze Teleportation Array.

Finally completed all the training tasks in the thick gathering space. At this moment, Shen Chong's usual indifferent attitude couldn't help but get excited.

Nine hundred years ago, it only took Shen Chong twenty years for his strength to stand at the top of the mortal realm cultivators. Nine hundred years have passed, and his cultivation level has only been from the later stage of Dacheng at the beginning. It's only the end of the current tribulation. But the strength has long exceeded the concept of the late stage of training.

Today's Shen Chong can kill the real masters of the late stage of the tribulation with a snap of his fingers. Even the terrifying power of the Great Core Flow in this thick gathering space could no longer endanger Shen Chong's life.

These are all a small part of the results of Shen Chong's nine hundred years of experience. Nine hundred years of experience has brought him far more benefits than these......

Flying in the air, he couldn't help but recall the experience of these nine hundred years in the thick gathering space.

At the beginning, it only took Shen Chong 40 days to pass the 'tough tower' experience corresponding to the danger of water.

Subsequently, Shen Chong spent another 23 days and passed the 'Detention Tower' experience corresponding to the dangerous land of wood.

However, the remaining two training towers, 'Potential Tower' and 'Swallowing Tower', because there were no treasures in the tower that could assist in breaking through, Shen Chong tried more than ten times before finally completing the experience of the two training towers.

The remaining two Training Towers were so difficult to pass, which Shen Chong didn't expect. And in these two towers, he repeatedly hit the wall and was blocked, which also hit his somewhat inflated self-confidence.

Later, it took more than a year before and after, and after Shen Chong's "Star and Moon Jue" broke through from the late stage of Star Swirl to the early stage of Star Ring, Shen Chong's strength soared, and he successfully broke through the 'Potential Tower' and 'Swallowing Tower', and was qualified to start the experience of the four dangerous places.

The Star Swirl period is a unique nebula in Shen Chong's body that has nine spiral arms composed of the essence of 'Ink Aura'. And the moment the Star Swirl period broke through, the rotation speed of the nine spiral arms suddenly increased several times, and the energy in the spiral arms was instantly compressed to the extreme.

A special magnetic force seems to be generated between the many gray glowing energy points that are entangled with each other. In the middle of the nebula, because of the huge rotational speed, a part of the energy condensed, forming a gaseous planet.

A ring of gray energy revolves around the central gaseous planet. "Xingyue Jue" has reached the fourth major form, the Star Ring Period.

Originally, the Thunder Attribute Origin and the Wood Attribute Origin were in the center of the star ring and the gas planet at this moment, and they were also rotating according to a characteristic trajectory, as if they had become two unique moons of the gas planet.

In the early stage of the star ring, the gas planet and the two attribute origins and star rings could exchange energy at will.

With the breakthrough of "Xingyue Jue", the total amount of energy in Shen Chong's body has increased by more than ten times, and his strength has also increased by more than ten times on the basis of the original.

At that time, Shen Chong felt it carefully, and felt that his actual cultivation level should have reached the level of the middle of the Tribulation, and his actual combat strength had already exceeded the scope of ordinary Tribulation Stage masters, and it was already difficult to test or locate it by the standards of mortal realm cultivators.

Strength breakthrough, and successfully break through the four towers.

Shen Chong was finally allowed by Ah Yan to enter the four dangerous places to practice. And the experience of the four dangerous places is completely different from the four towers of experience, and the danger is also higher.

Wander through the four Towers of Experience, and you don't need to worry about the core flow outside, and in case of danger. You can also chant spells to end your training in time and get out of danger and leave the training space in the tower.

And in the four major dangers, the large and small core flows are unobstructed. The reason why it is called the Misty Valley, the Great Desert of Oblivion, the Valley of Purgatory, and the Stygian Song Mountains can be called dangerous places is that the geography and landforms are unique and full of many dangers. The second is that the demon beasts living inside are powerful. It can always bring the threat of death to the practitioner.

Moreover, in the four dangerous places, there is no way to end it as soon as you want to end it by reciting a spell like in the four towers of experience.

The experience content of the four dangerous places is also very rich, and Shen Chong must go deep into the dangerous places again and again, complete them according to the requirements, and return to Ah Yan to hand over the task before he can complete one of the training contents.

For example, in the Stygian Mountains in the north, the content of the experience includes going deep into the mountains for ten years without dying, collecting 100 fruits of the Stygian Song Tree, and killing the leader of the foresters.

In the Purgatory Valley in the west, the content of the experience includes hunting ten rock leopards, going deep into the crypt magma to pick the earth fire lotus, finding the rock dragon dungeon and collecting 100 kilograms of ambergris inside, etc.

In the south of the Great Oblivion Desert. The main content of the experience is to hunt the purple-tailed scorpion to obtain the scorpion-tailed poison needle, kill the giant ant queen, destroy an anthill, and enslave an earth spirit.

In the misty Ze to the east, the content of the experience has become to go deep into the water demon lair to steal the water demon totem, hunt a hundred salamanders to obtain the Jiao tendon, and find the treasure of the water tribe.

In short, the experience content of the four dangerous places is strange, and the difficulty of the task is also high and low. Shen Chong couldn't remember how many times he needed to go in and out of a dangerous place in order to complete a difficult task.

And there is no danger, there are at least a dozen training tasks like this.

More than 900 years. Shen Chong did not slack off, and he also experienced countless crises. Not long ago, Shen Chong took a turn before the ghost gate closed. That time, he had just completed a mission, and after returning to Ah Yan, he learned that his last training mission was to find the 'Water Soul'. And in the process of searching for the 'soul of water'. Shen Chong was besieged by countless water tribe demon beasts in the misty water.

In the siege of countless water tribe demon beasts, Shen Chong was seriously injured and weak, relying on the last bit of survival instinct, he closed his breath and escaped into the mud of the swamp, hundreds of meters deep into the mud. And absconded all the way.

Finally got rid of the chasing soldiers of the Water Tribe, Shen Chong began to recover from his injuries in the mud crypt, but because of a blessing in disguise, he made a breakthrough in his cultivation, directly from the early stage of the Star Ring, to the middle stage of the Star Ring, and his strength increased several times again.

After recovering from his injuries, Shen Chong rushed out of the swamp mud and opened a killing spree, causing a group of water tribe monsters to flee in embarrassment.

And he, naturally, easily entered the group of demon beasts, captured the 'Water Soul', and completed this final training task.

Looking back on the past 900 years, Shen Chong felt as if he had a strange dream.

Shen Chong took a deep breath and retracted his thoughts, feeling the cold temperature constantly transmitted by the 'Water Soul' in his palm, and his mood was rarely excited.

Not far ahead, there was a teleportation array at the edge of the Misty Ze.

Shen Chong was as fast as a streamer, and flew directly to the teleportation array, silently reciting a spell in his mouth, and suddenly a white light flashed, and he returned to the teleportation array not far from Youxi Valley.

Returning to the vicinity of Youxi Valley, Shen Chong didn't stop, the whole person took off into the air, and flew quickly towards Youxi Valley, and after a while, he saw Ah Yan standing at the mouth of the valley to greet him.

"Iwa-senpai. Shen Chong was far away, so he called out.

"Shen Chong, it seems that you have succeeded. Ah Yan's face always had a warm smile, and he seemed very easy to get close to.

"It was my occasional breakthrough that made me so thrilling to complete this last task of finding the 'soul of water'. Shen Chong quickly flew down not far in front of Ah Yan, and after standing still, he raised his hand and sent the 'Water Soul' to Ah Yan with a soft force.

"Amazing......" Ah Yan praised, and then his face showed a trace of reluctance and loneliness: "Shen Chong, before, you insisted on completing all the training content before leaving the thick gathering space, so I naturally didn't want to chase you." However, now that you've completed all of your training, there's no need to stay here......"

Ah Yan also has feelings, he has been with Shen Chong for more than 900 years, and he gets along well, at this moment Shen Chong has completed all the experience and is about to leave, Ah Yan's heart. also naturally gave birth to a sense of reluctance.

"By the way, before I leave, I should give you two maps. Ah Yan said and put away the 'Water Soul', and when he waved his hand again, two rays of light flew out of his hand and disappeared into Shen Chong's forehead.

Two maps. Unfolded in Shen Chong's mind. At the same time, Ah Yan's voice also rang out: "These two maps, one is the map leading to the entrance of the first layer of the core heaven to the thick gathering space, and the other is much larger, it is a map that passes through the natural maze outside the 'core ball core' to reach the origin of the soil inside the 'core ball core'. These two pictures, you have to keep in mind that when you have enough strength in the future, you will naturally use them when you return here to accept the inheritance of the origin of the earth. ”

Shen Chong nodded silently. In an instant, I recorded two huge maps in my mind.

At this time, Ah Yan waved his hand again and threw something over.

Shen Chong grabbed it with his hand and grabbed the thing in his hand. If you look closely, it is a wooden token with two quaint words on it: 'Boundary Ladder'.

"Is this what Senior Yan said, the teleportation token prepared by the Almighty himself?" Shen Chong was overjoyed when he saw it.

Although he has the 'crossing' illusion skill, the 'Boundary Ladder' trick can only be used three times, which is naturally very precious. Now with this teleportation token. At least one chance to return to the Mortal Realm for free.

When Shen Chong happily accepted the teleportation token, Ah Yan said again: "Okay, Shen Chong." You can go, remember to come back early to receive the legacy, I am here for you. ”

Shen Chong knew that Ah Yan was looking forward to freedom, and immediately nodded seriously: "Senior Yan, don't worry." When I broke through this time, I also felt my own immortal calamity. Seven months later. If I can successfully ascend to the Immortal Realm, I will definitely work hard to cultivate and return here as soon as possible. ”

Shen Chong could sense the time when the immortal tribulation was coming, which also meant that his cultivation level had reached the peak of his mortal realm. Mid-Ring. Although the strength is super strong, the actual level corresponds to the late stage of the tribulation.

"Remember what you said today, and go ahead. Ah Yan still chuckled, and it seemed that his mood was fluctuating on the surface.

Shen Chong gave Ah Yan another junior salute, then turned around and stepped directly into the teleportation array.

A flash of light flashed, and he had already transmitted directly from the teleportation array outside the valley to the teleportation array where he came in.

Another flash of light flashed, and Shen Chong returned to the first layer of the core heaven.

Looking at the scenery around him that had not changed from the nine hundred years he had passed, Shen Chong took a deep breath and immediately flew towards the teleportation array on the first layer according to the map taught by Ah Yan in his mind.

Staying in the thick gathering space for nine hundred years, halfway, Shen Chong was afraid that his relatives and friends would be worried, and he also thought about leaving early.

But as soon as he thought of being chased by the cliff, and finally Xiao Yi turned into jade in order to protect himself, Shen Chong was ruthless, buried himself in cultivation again, and constantly completed one experience after another, improving his strength little by little.

He had never been so eager to be strong, and only when he was strong enough could he protect those close to him.

Only if you are strong enough can you make the cliff have no chance to escape.

Staring ahead, Shen Chong's eyes were cold, and his flight speed instantly increased to the extreme, making a sharp air explosion.

Many rock beasts in the first layer of the Rock Core Heaven saw a human flying so arrogantly in the sky, and they originally wanted to attack, but after seeing the terrifying speed of the other party, they all shrank back one by one.

Speed also reflects a person's strength from the side.

In just over half an hour, Shen Chong returned to the location of the teleportation array, and teleported all the way without stopping, Shen Chong directly returned to the fourth layer of Yanxintian, on the No. 403 plate where the Illusion Technology Pavilion was located.

The light of the teleportation array lit up, and the two Praetorian Guards guarding here suddenly lifted their breath and stood up straight.

Those who can come out of the core layer are all super masters, and those who will be sent back to plate 403 must also be adults in the Illusion Pavilion. In front of such a distinguished senior, the Praetorian Guard naturally had to be more serious.

The light dissipated, revealing the figure of a young man, and the natural indifference in this young man's body, as well as the murderous aura, made the two Praetorian Guards tremble even their legs and stomachs.

"See... I've seen big... Your Excellency ...... "One of the more experienced Praetorian Guards suppressed the fear in his heart and saluted in a trembling voice.

"Hmm!" Shen Chong's eyes swept over the two of them indifferently, and he didn't talk nonsense, and instantly turned into a streamer and flew in the direction of the Illusion Pavilion.

Shen Chong flew away, and the two Praetorian Guards collapsed to the ground weakly.

"Second brother... This... This...... What kind of master is it, it's so terrifying, just... Just now he just... It was a glance at me, and I had a feeling that I was about to suffocate......"

Another Praetorian Guard also wiped the sweat from his forehead and let out a sigh of relief: "I... I don't know. I've been a guard here for over a hundred years, and I've never seen such a terrifying figure. I have a feeling that even Lord Qiu Ming, the Pavilion Commander, does not have such a terrifying momentum. ”

Ordinary seniors rarely take the initiative to release their momentum to oppress weak people. In fact, Shen Chong didn't deliberately release his momentum just now, but he was going to find revenge on the cliff at the moment, and he had hatred in his heart, so he naturally exuded murderous aura from his body. With his current strength, this bit of escaping aura has already made the hands and feet of the two infancy Praetorian Guards weak.

Shen Chong flew into the sky above the large building where the Illusion Pavilion was located, and the powerful spiritual sense and realm extended without any scruples, instantly enveloping the entire No. 403 plate.

Although Shen Chong's strength is strong, he can release his breath without concealment, and others can also detect it.

"Who!?" Qiu Ming, the leader of the Illusion Technique Pavilion, changed his face drastically, and he rose directly from the courtyard where he was cultivating.

Under Shen Chong's huge momentum, one by one the pavilions flew into the air to check. And those pavilion guards with ordinary strength felt that the whole person was oppressed, and some of them had weaker cultivation levels, and even sweated profusely on their foreheads, and even their heartbeats were chaotic.

"Shen Chong!?" Qiu Ming was the first to recognize the god-like figure standing in mid-air.

"Pavilion Commander!" Shen Chong barely showed a smile and arched his hand towards the other party.

"How could it be you?" Qiu Ming never thought that this powerful figure who suddenly appeared turned out to be Shen Chong.

More than nine hundred years ago, Shen Chong was just a master of the Yuan Infant Stage, although his strength was strong, but his cultivation level would not deceive people. But now, just sensing from the aura released by Shen Chong, even if he is a master of the Tribulation Period, it is absolutely impossible to give himself such a strong sense of oppression.

Shen Chong didn't bother to explain, and asked directly, "Where is the cliff?"

After all, Qiu Ming was also a master who had been famous for a long time, and he quickly calmed down from his surprise. He greeted Shen Chong on an equal footing, but there was a hint of respect in his tone: "Cliff? Is it the cliff that became the cabinet secretary with you in the first place?"

Shen Chong didn't speak, which was a tacit acquiescence.

It seems that there is a festival between this Shen Chong and the cliff. Although this kid is powerful, how did he provoke a genius like Shen Chong?

Qiu Ming secretly slandered in his heart, but he continued on the surface: "Cliff has been staying here in the Illusion Pavilion since he became the Pavilion Master, but according to the records of the Praetorian Guards at the teleportation array, he has gone deep into the Yanxin Heaven many times, and I don't know what he is doing. About 500 years ago, he suddenly disappeared and never returned......"

"Gone!?" Shen Chong's pair of sword eyebrows suddenly furrowed.

He rushed here violently, hoping to find revenge on the cliff, but the other party actually left the Illusion Pavilion.

At this moment, Shen Chong's mind moved, and he looked up into the distance, but saw Lu Qintian, who had already experienced the middle of the tribulation, flying with a young girl.

"Brother Shen Chong!" In the distance, the girl called out, and the pear blossom cried with rain.

After seeing Shen Chong, Lu Qintian stopped in mid-air not far away, and Lu Xiang'er flew directly and threw herself into Shen Chong's arms.

Xiang'er's current cultivation also has the middle stage of the Yuan Infant, and the reason why she asked Lu Qintian to fly with her just now was because the flight speed was too slow.

"Xiang'er, don't cry. Shen Chong stroked the hair of the girl in his arms, and most of the evil anger in his heart was dissipated because he saw this sister. (To be continued.) )
