Chapter 111: Ruins
It feels good to be flying through the air and fluttering like an immortal.
But the almost impenetrable fog, coupled with the treacherous undercurrent storm, and the canyon that didn't know where the end was, really made Duan Heng depressed and worried.
With the wind brakes he has secretly accumulated over the past five years or so, he has easily mastered the art of fast gliding flight at the beginning, and the feeling of being able to control speed and direction with just a few wind brakes is beautiful.
But after a full hour, Duan Heng was a little dumbfounded, because under normal circumstances, even if he couldn't reach the other side of the canyon, he should have touched the cliff of the canyon, or simply fell into the canyon.
After all, he had at least glided a distance of thousands of miles at the moment, and he still deliberately lowered his height, according to the theory of hooking three and four strings and five, the depth and width of this particular canyon was enough to make him collapse a hundred times.
Or this is not a canyon at all, but the entrance to hell, but the problem is that no matter the map provided by Luo Yunrong or the memory that Su Xiaomei got from the Demon Patriarch Princess, in the area of the Seventh Demon Mountain, there is no way that such a weird and terrifying Grand Canyon exists?
Could it be that he has fallen into some kind of ambush again, so that he has fallen into a hallucination?
Duan Heng quickly swept this thought through his mind, because with his current spiritual strength, it was impossible for him to fall into the illusion realm unconsciously.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, as a strong wind swept by, the fog around him quickly dissipated, and Duan Heng also appeared in front of his eyes, and there was no other side of the canyon at all, he actually seemed to have glided down from the top of an extremely high mountain.
But this was nothing, because Duan Heng could easily see towering buildings all over the ground, dotted around, seemingly in ruins of cities. In the midst of this ruin, there is a gray mist flowing everywhere, and there is no life at all, like a place that has been completely forgotten by the world.
Controlling his gliding speed, Duan Heng slowly descended towards a city ruin, and Lingjue quickly launched a search. But there are no living creatures in the field of vision, not even the most ordinary monsters, but there are still a lot of fairy qi between heaven and earth, mixed with demonic qi.
"Whew"
A cloud of dust stirred up, and Duan Heng gently landed on a relatively tall and complete building platform, and at this moment, he still didn't feel any danger.
Looking around, it was devastated, and the vision in the air was completely different from the view on the ground. Duan Heng was a little weird in his heart, because no matter how he looked at it, this city ruin was a bit similar to a metropolis on earth, well, if it was destroyed hundreds of times, it would probably be the case.
If it weren't for the fact that the materials used to build the ruins were made of very rare and extremely strong black stone, he would have almost thought he was back on earth in the last days.
Look up in the direction you've been flying from before. All I saw was a shadow in the mist, a mountain beyond imagination. Or a huge cliff plateau.
Definitely not a canyon.
The whole sky is gray, and you can imagine how glorious and prosperous it used to be.
But today, the ruins of the city are covered in dust.
"It's weird. Could it be that this was once a gathering place for demons?"
Duan Heng's gaze fell back on a few nearby buildings, the familiar architectural style was really weird, even if it had been destroyed to the point that only the skeleton remained, but he could still see the shadow of the former skyscraper, as well as the very similar planning layout in the city.
But there are no bodies to be seen. This city is full of ancient battle traces, and the specifications must be very high, because the solidity of these buildings can be compared to Yulin Iron, so it is difficult to destroy them if they are not immortal cultivators above the prince level.
Carefully jumping off the platform and coming to the ground, Duan Heng found something different, that is, although the style of these buildings is similar to the skyscrapers on the earth, the living dimensions are very different, the average floor height here is more than six meters, and the rooms inside are even more spacious and incredible, so from this point of view, it is almost certain that this is not the end of the earth.
Shaking his head and smiling bitterly, Duan Heng put aside this unbelievable thought in his head, and searched all the way along the ruins, to be honest, he was still looking forward to encountering something similar to a car tank, but unfortunately those things didn't exist at all.
In the end, Duan Heng also had to make sure that although the style of this city's ruins was similar to that of a city on earth, the residents of this city were definitely strong guys, not only tall, but also infinitely powerful, with rough skin and thick flesh to the extreme.
"Similar to a demon, huh?"
Duan Heng couldn't help but think of his previous experience, he believed that he hadn't accidentally jumped into the fault space, if he returned along the same path, as long as he climbed that unimaginable cliff, he could still return to the area of the Aoki Forest, so this place was definitely not lifeless.
Walking around the ruins, occasionally getting into a building, gradually, Duan Heng collected more clues, for example, he found that the age of the ruins of this ancient building is very long, it is estimated that it is more than 100,000 years, or hundreds of thousands of years is possible.
For another example, the corpses of the aborigines of this city and their daily utensils, weapons, etc., seem to have been searched back and forth, and most of these searchers are human immortal cultivators.
Judging in this way, it is very likely that the aborigines here are demons, after all, this is under the background of the invasion of the demon race by human immortal cultivators.
In the next few hours, Duan Heng searched almost the entire ruins of the city, and did not find any special clues, seeing that the sky was gradually darkening, a shadow suddenly flashed in his heart, and then he heard a strange roar from a far away.
"Demon,!"
This voice Duan Heng was already very familiar, he didn't dare to slack off, he turned around and rushed to the highest point of a ruined building, looked in the direction where the sound came from, and then saw that outside the ruins of the city, about forty or fifty miles away, a demon at least ten meters high, as strong as a hill, came out of the ground, this demon was obviously much more powerful than the one he had contacted before, and it also had a very strange mutation, the head was huge, like a crocodile, and there were two huge wings on its back, and it flew into the air with two casual flapping。
But this was only the first demon that appeared, and the next thing that made Duan Heng stunned was that in all directions, more strange-shaped demons came out, including demonized demon corpses, wood demons, and monsters, all of which were extremely powerful, and their strength started at the prince level.
Duan Heng's heart was so miserable, where did he think that there were so many monsters hidden under the ruins of this seemingly lifeless demon clan, wouldn't his strength be like looking for death?
For a while, Duan Heng could only honestly drill into the corner of the room, in this case, going out was looking for death.
However, he soon found that the demons, monsters, and demon corpses that had come out did not enter the ruined city, but gathered into a huge army and rushed towards the east of the city, the roars came and went, but they were orderly, as if someone was commanding.
After about half an hour or so, the sky outside was completely dark, and the roars of the demons were inaudible, and there was silence.
But at this moment, Duan Heng's heart suddenly moved, and he hurriedly jumped out of the room, stood on the platform, and looked in the direction of due east, because he actually saw a series of sword qi and thunder, and firelight.
It's a Terran immortal cultivator!
That's right, it is the sword and thunder spell that can only be released by immortal cultivators, although the sound cannot be heard, but judging from the degree of the sword light, the battle is very fierce, and the level is very high, as for the distance, it is at least thousands of miles away.
Could it be the fortress of the Terran Invasion Legion?
As soon as he thought of this, Duan Heng quickly analyzed a rough idea in his heart, if the ruins of the city here really belonged to the former demon clan, then it was normal to have a fortress garrisoned by the human race in the distance.
It's just that he is very strange about one thing, since the demons here have been annihilated for an unknown number of thousands of years, why are the demons and demon corpses here still so rampant, looking at the lightning shining in the distance, the battle almost entered the white heat at the beginning.
Duan Heng watched quietly, and it was not until midnight that the sword light and thunder in the distance, and the firelight dimmed, and finally completely turned into darkness.
There are only two possibilities in this situation, first, the Terran fortress has completely annihilated the demons and demon corpses that came to attack, and second, the Terran fortress has been conquered.
And vaguely, Duan Heng felt that the second possibility was the greatest, after all, the number of demons he had seen before was extremely large, and at least thousands of them would have emerged within a radius of hundreds of miles, if the strength of the Terran immortal cultivators was very strong, it was estimated that they would have been exterminated long ago, and they would still need to be left until now?
If this is really the case, the legion of the human race invading the demon race may not be as beautiful as it seems.
The night passed quickly, there were no accidents, those demons or demon corpses, monsters did not enter the ruins of the city at all, and when the sky was bright, the whole world became extremely quiet again, just like yesterday.
But Duan Heng knew that the demons that came out last night had not come back at all.
After thinking about it for a while, he decided to go to the east, although his current status was embarrassing, but hiding here like this was not a long-term solution.
What's more, it may not be really safe here, and if something happens again, it will be fatal. (To be continued.) )
