Chapter 374: The Land of the Dead
When they arrived at this kind of place, they could only rely on the strength of their own physical bodies, and the two of them were a little unconvinced, but after a little mana, the meridians suddenly emptied, and the mana that had just been condensed disappeared in an instant. [Ran^Text^Library] [ ] It's a strange place, and it doesn't look like some kind of formation prohibition, but it seems to be a natural generation, and it's going to be against the monks.
Along the direction of the mountain, several people came down from the high slope and walked all the way forward, I heard that there are demon beasts in this kind of place, and they don't know what the strength is, and they can only use the power of the body, but it is not as convenient as the spiritual power to recover. Therefore, a few people on the road tried to save their physical strength as much as possible, and their speed naturally couldn't get up, and they walked slowly like mortals.
"I know, this is the land of absolute spirits, where the existence of spiritual power is not allowed at all, and once it appears, it will be extinct. There seems to be a place where you come from, a Jedi that is considered a monk, and you can't even use witchcraft and magic, but that place is said to be huge, and I don't know how it is. As he walked along the road, the monk suddenly screamed in surprise, and he couldn't even care about his identity as a monk from a foreign land.
"Oh, Fellow Daoist knows this kind of place, so what experience do you have in dealing with this kind of Jedi, tell us about it, but I am suffering from it. Wang Jin's eyes immediately lit up, and he hurriedly asked the man.
"The only way to do this is to force your way in by the force of your flesh, just like us, and there is no other way. However, this kind of place is not disgusting to all monks, but it is liked by some real body refining monks, and there are often some things needed for body refining in this kind of place, so those body refining people flock to it, but it is not like here where there is almost no grass, which is really incomprehensible. Being able to show off in front of the two of them also made this person a little satisfied.
"That's it, anyway, we're not aiming for the body refining thing here, just want to get to that place, do you know what this place says, maybe you can let me find a way to conserve your strength, that's pretty good." "This kind of local dialect is unheard of. Through this person's conversation, he hurriedly asked.
In this way, the monk surnamed Cheng was even more proud, put on a high-ranking posture, shook his head and said: "All the places of absolute spirits have their causes, and most of them are caused by great changes in heaven and earth, and there are also acquired man-made causes. However, it is usually only possible in such isolated spaces. So in my opinion, it is very likely that this place is man-made. Or with the help of a formation, or some kind of powerful space treasure. ”
"It makes sense, this is likely to be a sealed place, and it is unlikely that heaven and earth will be generated, because the royal city back then was not destroyed by the change of heaven and earth, and it was once a place full of spiritual energy. Even if this is a sealed place, it is also the work of an ancestor of the royal family, but what is the purpose of his doing this, and how did he do it?" Wang Jin suddenly took it and said.
Even though he has been here many times. It is only now that he knows that this is a place of absolute spirits, not because he did not put his mind into this matter, but because of the conditions of South Vietnam itself, there is no record of this in the classics. In addition, his cultivation was already low, and there were several places where he could practice, how could he compare to how much knowledge this foreign monk had.
"There is a guess that the aura here does not dissipate naturally. Instead, it was swept away by a powerful formation, but whenever there was a little spiritual energy, it would be absorbed by this formation, and finally such a place of absolute spirit was formed. As for why this is the case, there may be many reasons, there are countless treasures in the cultivation realm that require a large amount of spiritual energy offerings, a rare spiritual object. A top-grade elixir or a spiritual treasure is possible. ”
After speaking, the monk surnamed Cheng looked at the stunned two with a smug face, but how did he know that the reason why the two of them were like this was actually touching their respective minds. Fang Yan's first thought was his own blue orb, and when he advanced, there had been a thing where the blue bead jumped out on its own and sucked the aura around him. Maybe his treasure should also be offered with aura, but he didn't know what to do.
Wang Jin, on the other hand, thought more far-reaching, recalling all kinds of abnormalities before the fall of the royal family. Since he knew his true identity, he looked up a large number of records about the royal family, in fact, before it was broken by those family alliances, there had been a lot of abnormal things in the royal city, but it did not attract everyone's attention at that time, and Wang Jin also skipped it, and now in retrospect, it seems that all this faintly points to the great change in the aura of the royal city.
According to some sporadic historical records, when the royal city was breached, the large protective array appeared surprisingly fragile, and everyone suspected that someone had secretly infiltrated the destruction, or that they were in harmony with the monks in the royal city, but they never found out who did it.
Moreover, before this, there have been many years in a row that the number of new disciples in the clan who are in the spiritual root has decreased, cultivation has become more difficult, it is extremely difficult to cultivate, and there are fewer and fewer high-level monks in the royal family.
After being silent for a while, Fang Yan was about to speak, when a sound suddenly came from not far away, and Wang Jin also woke up from his contemplation and shouted in a low voice: "The demon beast is here, ready to fight." ”
With a low roar, a demon beast the size of a zhang suddenly burst out of the haze and pounced directly on the three of them, and before a few people could see the appearance of this demon beast, they had already come closer. Although the spiritual power could not be used, fortunately, the divine sense was not restricted, and in an instant, the dialect figure jumped horizontally, and the mountain-breaking blade was also held in his hand.
Wang Jin took out a pair of short spears, he was most familiar with these demon beasts, and after avoiding the collision, he reflexively stabbed the short spear in his hand, but was quickly dodged by this demon beast. And the monk surnamed Cheng was still empty-handed, did not take out any magic weapons, clenched his fists with a long roar, and shot from behind Wang Jin, punching the demon beast that was dodging quickly.
"Bang", this punch hit the tail of the demon beast, causing the demon beast to roar in pain, and even its body was a little unstable on its feet, and it staggered a few steps before slamming its body, staring at the dialect and a few people menacingly. This punch also surprised Fang Yan a little, not only the strength of this person, but also the speed of the attack, which made Fang Yan amazed, and I don't know where this person came from, I am afraid that the inheritance of alchemy is very extraordinary.
Taking advantage of the slight pause of this demon beast, the three of them immediately stood in their positions, and they also saw the appearance of this demon beast clearly at this time. It seems that this is just an ordinary bull demon, usually docile in the outside world, and the dialect raised one for the spirit plant, but here it became very irritable and took the initiative to attack the three of them.
After only a moment's pause, the bull demon rushed over again in disregard, and slammed into the monk surnamed Cheng head-on, probably remembering that it had suffered a loss at the hands of this person, and immediately pointed the finger at him. But this person was not in a hurry, only when he was about to get closer, he suddenly took a sideways step, and after shaking it, it was followed by another punch, the force was greater than before, and the dialect could vaguely see a faint layer of gold on the surface of this person's skin.
The bull demon was beaten again, but the remaining momentum did not disappear, and he rushed towards the place where the dialect was, only to see the dialect jump high, and when the bull demon rushed to him, the mountain blade slashed down fiercely. With a "click", a bull's head with two horns rolled out of the distance, and a cavity of demon blood immediately sprayed everywhere, and the figure of the bull demon still slid forward several feet away before falling down.
Fang Yan's hand also made the other two slightly surprised, being able to kill this bull demon is nothing, and the three of them can do it, because this bull demon is not too strong, except for brute force, there is not much combat power. The main thing is that the dialect knife is clean and neat, and it can be seen that the technique is very sophisticated, and it must be done through a hundred battles.
And the power of this knife is not small, otherwise it would never be possible to cut off the head of the cow so simply, without dragging the mud and water. A little bull demon, let the three of them try their skills, and they also know a little bit of strength from each other, which should not be underestimated.
And this is also the first demon beast they killed after they came here, Fang Yan had the intention to see how different the demon beasts here were, so he squatted down to skillfully decompose the corpse of the demon beast, and quickly collected the materials and fur, and the rest of the beast meat was a little interested, and they all cut a large piece and put it in the spirit beast bag.
Before I came, I heard Wang Jin say that the demon beasts here are completely different from the outside world, and the materials are not very useful, but the flesh and blood are quite beneficial, especially for body refining cultivators like them, it is quite effective for the tonic of the physical body. After putting away the flesh and blood, Fang Yan took out a bull's horn and examined it carefully, it was similar to an ordinary domestic animal, there was no trace of aura on it, but it was much bigger.
It seems that it is really as Wang Jin said, the essence of the demon beast here is all in the flesh and blood, and after Fang Yan put it away casually, he followed them forward. The mountain seems to be not far away, but it is not close to really walking, the so-called Wangshan running dead horse, always looking at the eyes, walking for nearly a day did not arrive.
Although the monsters here are not dense, they often haunt, and they seem to be extremely hostile to foreign monks, and almost a fight is indispensable when encountered. It may be that the breath on their bodies is incompatible with this place, or maybe these demon beasts can smell the hidden spiritual power on the bodies of several people, and from time to time they will suddenly rush out from those cloud-filled places, and then they will fight endlessly, and none of them will be afraid to retreat.
If you can use spiritual power, the demon beasts here are not afraid at all, and they can even be easily avoided by just flying up, and these demon beasts don't know any magic skills, they only know how to attack with brute force. However, the monks here can't use spells, so they have to attack with the same physical strength as these demon beasts.
Along the way, several people killed dozens of demon beasts one after another, and most of those materials were discarded, just putting away their flesh and blood. It has been a few days since they set off, and several people feel a little tired, not only rushing to the road and fighting and killing demon beasts, but these suffocating air, which always makes people feel very dull in their chests, and a little out of breath.
After finding a mountain col, several people took turns to rest for a few hours, and roasted some demon beast flesh and blood collected along the road. After a short rest, several people began to trek towards the mountain again, and the number of demon beasts encountered along the way gradually increased, and the speed of travel naturally slowed down.
