Chapter 458: Abandoned City
When I came, I went all the way to the west, and when the dialect went here, I went to the east, and it was easy to come to two places, either in a worrying situation or in ruins, and the further I went, the more worrying the situation became. Because further back was the place where the small sects of Nanyue used to gather, and it was also the place that was most severely damaged in this catastrophe, and now it may be the place where demon cultivation is active.
Fang Yan found a place to stay in the ruins, and after some arrangement, he hid in the blue bead space, preparing to rest here for a night before setting off. The space is completely different from the outside world, the aura is rich, and the vitality is lush, and it is not much worse than the ordinary places of the Qingyuan Sect, except that the scope here is too small, but it is more than enough for one person to speak dialects.
The spiritual grass and spirit wood inside grew extremely fast, and the treasures that Fang Yan had painstakingly collected were all stored here, and a small building that could be called exquisite was also built. It's just that there is only one kind of living creature inside, that is, those amethyst bees flying around, the number is still the same as when it was hatched, but the size is slowly growing.
After resting for a night, Fang Yan flashed out of the space, and if there was someone else beside him, he would definitely not recognize it at this moment. Fang Yan has completely changed his makeup, and he is dressed as a demon cultivator, and it may be difficult to see the figure of the spiritual cultivator again after here, and it is even more difficult to keep the immortal city intact, so Fang Yan simply pretended to be a demon cultivator.
Following the route of the escape, Fang Yan continued to hurry, and the two demon pets were always at his side along the way, reducing the nuisance of many demon beasts. And Fang Yan didn't have the heart to find the Demon Beast to hunt, this area may have been set up as a secret stronghold by the Demon Cultivator, the purpose of Fang Yan's trip is to find them, the more the number, the better, the more detailed the location, the better.
It was another months of lonely trekking, if it weren't for the blue bead space that could relieve his body and mind, otherwise walking in the demonic energy for a long time, not to mention the consumption of his own spiritual power, the tense nerves would not be relieved, and it would be very difficult to rush like this. I don't know how the other monks sent by the Eight Great Sects will get through this journey. Unless they all have cultivated demonic skills, it will be absolutely difficult to persevere.
Not far ahead is the first place he settled down after the catastrophe, Guiyun Mountain, remembering the scene on the mountain at the beginning, of course the dialect paid special attention to this place, and had the impression that this was a stronghold chosen by the demon cultivator, and a magic array was also laid out at that time. No surprises. This will also be the first place for dialects to explore, when they take on a mission. This was the first place that came to his mind.
When he cautiously approached the past, he found that this remnant mountain was already full of holes, not to mention demon cultivation, even the demonic beasts did not see a few, and half of the mountain was as silent as death. Walking in the middle of it, except for the rubble and ruins everywhere, there is no other human track, so that all the calculations of the dialect all the way are in vain.
Originally, he wanted to be here to get as much information as possible about the demon cultivator. The journey to Hujun Mountain must have changed a lot after the Great Tribulation, and it is equivalent to a strange place in dialect. If he could get some information about the front here, the other party said that this trip would be of great help, but unfortunately in the end he was extremely disappointed. I don't know if it was abandoned by those demon cultivators, or if it was breached by the demonic beasts, in short, the first battle of the dialect failed.
Which direction to go is a question. The terrain of South Vietnam has changed so much since the catastrophe that many places have long been unrecognizable, and even the monks who once lived here may not recognize the new large areas, or the places that have been torn apart and do not know where to go.
The dialect pondered for a long time. I decided to try it in the southeast direction, I was under the impression that these places were more prosperous before the Great Tribulation, and the dialect had been to several of them, and if I could happen to come across one of them, I could roughly deduce the place, although I don't know how big the error would be. The other is to hope to meet the demon cultivators, only from them. It is possible to know the real situation in this place.
In the loneliness, there were months of silence, and Fang Yan didn't even see a single figure, but he often encountered demonic beasts. This place has become a world of demonic beasts, and in some places you can even see hordes of high-level demonic beasts, so that Fang Yan has to slow down and try to detour as much as possible to avoid falling under their siege.
Along the way, the dialect did not see any signs that could guide the way, and walked in a daze, and the direction gradually became blurred. Sometimes, in order to avoid a hord of beasts with a terrifying breath, Fang Yan even had to take the demon pet around thousands of miles, and the original route had to be adjusted again and again, and finally it was completely lost.
It seems that the tentacles of the Demon Gate have not yet penetrated here, or it has not yet had time to deploy here on a large scale, and this is not a good thing for Fang Yan, he does not want to crash into the depths of the place where the Demon Cultivator is entrenched when he is unprepared. And he has almost no understanding of the demon cultivation here, except for his own outfit, he can be confused, but he can't stand up to interrogation, and it is easy to show his stuff, which makes him faintly worried in his heart.
A few days later, the dialect was walking among the vast black mist. He had experienced this situation countless times, and it was of course very dangerous to be alone, but fortunately, there were unusually alert shadows beside him, and he would have probed around from time to time, otherwise the road would never have been so smooth.
Suddenly, Fang Yan noticed that among the black dirt in front of him, there was a large stone several feet long, not those stones that can be seen everywhere, because the incisions around this large stone are very neat, as if it has been artificially polished. Fang Yan walked forward quickly, looked at the long boulder carefully, and then asked the two demon pets to dig the big stone out of the soil with him.
When it was placed on the ground, Fang Yan was immediately stunned, and on this long boulder, there were two clearly visible characters, "Burning Sun". Could it be that this is Burning Sun City, otherwise how could there be a huge stone bar to build the city wall, it can't be the power of the Great Tribulation that brought this stone here.
In order to prove his judgment, the dialect immediately searched nearby, and this search was not tight, and the result was that the dialect was shocked beyond measure. There is no doubt that this is indeed the Burning Sun City, but the degree of damage to this former immortal city has far exceeded the imagination of the dialect, and the huge city was all buried by the black soil on the ground, and only the stones on the huge city walls were scattered everywhere.
Fang Yan continued to search around this place, and walked for a few days, and all he saw in front of him were the stones scattered on the city wall, or the bricks and tiles that had been shattered into sand, and the huge immortal city could not see the figure of the year at all. In my memory, although this immortal city is chaotic, there are mountains and rivers in it, and the streets and houses are dense, so I can't see even a trace of it.
Was it all destroyed by the earth-shattering thunderstorm, or was it destroyed by the huge shaking that followed, why couldn't those things be seen at all? Fang Yan did not give up, and searched around, but after a few days, he was still disappointed, this immortal city was either buried deep underground, and maybe even turned into powder.
An immortal city was buried alive like this, what would happen to the monks and mortals in the city, under this catastrophe, wouldn't not even a single person escape alive here? Fang Yan's heart seemed to be punched by someone, and thousands of lives were swallowed up like this, including his most respected predecessor, Liuyunzi.
Back then, he also took Qingluan to visit his home, and because of Liuyunzi's relationship, he became a spiritual planter in the city, and all the things he encountered in the city afterwards. All this made it impossible for the dialect to recall completely, and there was no trace of this place anymore, not even a trace of a very hidden clue, and this destruction came so cleanly and completely.
What makes the dialect even more worried is Yannan City, Lieyang City is still like this, what will happen to the small Yannan City, looking at the tragic scene of Lieyang City, Fang Yan is a little afraid to go to the direction of Yannan City. The humble city in my impression is only thousands of miles away from here, and even if it changes greatly after the catastrophe, it is not difficult to find the ruins of the southern city after spending some time.
But Fang Yan is reluctant to look for it, maybe it is better to let Yan Nancheng stay in his mind than to see it again, at least he can make himself miss it a little. The scene in Burning Sun City was too miserable, how could this immortal city that had been erased out of thin air not make Fang Yan's heart palpitate and make it difficult for him to face.
Fang Yan is unwilling to look for any more, and I am afraid that this immortal city will not be able to find more remnants, and continuing to stay here will only add to the sadness. At this time, it was a veritable ruined city, lying silently underground. Perhaps after many years, the demonic energy has dissipated, and this place will still see the light of day, but the city of the Burning Sun has disappeared forever, along with the countless creatures that were once alive in the city.
Find a slightly higher spot nearby, and Fang Yan and two magic pets hollow out it. Then Fang Yan got into it again, dug a deep pit in the ground with his own hands, and buried a magic weapon that Liuyunzi had given him from the storage bag. Then Fang Yan brought a huge stone strip, cut it into the shape of a tombstone, and planted it vertically, and after it was stabilized, Fang Yan took out a flying sword and wrote a few big characters on the surface of the stone bar, "The Tomb of Teacher Liuyunzi".
After doing this, Fang Yan took out his best spirit wine and spirit tea, put it in front of this simple tomb, and bowed to the tombstone three times and nine times in a regular manner, completing this thing that has been late for nearly ten years, but has always wanted to complete. In his heart, Fang Yan already regarded Liuyunzi as his teacher, but he didn't fulfill the apprenticeship, and Liuyunzi even surpassed ordinary masters and apprentices to him, and he had no reservations at all.
Sitting in front of the tombstone, Fang Yan recounted his experience over the years, everything was extremely detailed, and he had a lot to say to Liuyunzi. Liuyunzi may not be the only one who appreciates him, but he is the only high-ranking monk who is willing to regard him as a fellow practitioner, and he is also the only one who has guided him on the immortal path so far.
After sitting here for a day, Fang Yan stood up and set up some simple prohibitions around the edge of the tombstone, which were all taught to him by Su Yanqing at will, and they were not of much use, they could only be used for isolation. Then Fang Yan sprinkled a large number of spirit stones in it, lest this place would soon be impregnated with demonic energy, and the prohibition would quickly become invalid, but he was not sure how long it would last.
In the end, the dialect sealed the place tightly, thinking that if South Vietnam had a chance to see the light of day again in the future, he would come here and renovate this tombstone to commemorate this teacher whom he would never forget.
