Chapter Seventy-Four: The Scarlet Space
Time and time again, Zhou Nan is like a tireless machine, abused over and over again, as if only pain can make him find a reason not to go crazy and lose himself in this quiet environment. in order to find their own sense of existence and live like a normal person. Don't be overwhelmed by endless fear and go crazy.
In the outside world, three months have passed, the flowers have bloomed and fallen, the clouds are rolling, and everything in the deep mountains has returned to its original appearance. From time to time, you can also see some strangely dressed and hordes of immortal cultivators, cautiously hunting demon beasts. Although they were careful enough, there were still many people who fell and died tragically.
Inside the bronze giant coffin, Zhou Nan has been doing the same thing, and he has not stopped for a moment. It can be imagined that in this small space, when all the negative emotions such as silence, loneliness, helplessness, despair, and numbness came to the door, three months was so long, and before he knew it, Zhou Nan had forgotten the time.
He did not dare to remember the time, this was the most terrible demon. It is illusory, untouchable, imperceptible. But it can make any kind of emotion that you can instantly amplify to infinity, and can make people with strong intentions go crazy and collapse alive.
Simply, Zhou Nan found something to do, and he no longer had to endure such pain. It's not like a retreat, even though it's all in a confined environment, but the meaning is a million different things. One is autonomous, the other is passive, the difference is a millimeter, but it is a world of difference.
Under the repetition again and again, Zhou Nan was already able to hold up two breaths in the blood-colored space. In this way, this made Zhou Nan feel hope, and in the dark, there was an intuition that told him that as long as he persevered and didn't give up, in the near future, he would definitely be able to go out and see the bright sun.
At the same time, Zhou Nan never doubted the "Soul Refining Technique", this exercise that has accompanied him since he was a child has given him an inexplicable trust, which is the only way for him to survive in this dragon coffin. The current Zhou Nan is like a drowning man, and "Soul Refinement" is his only lifeline. He didn't dare to give up, he didn't dare to doubt.
Because he knows the Tao, this is his last hope. If he made another mistake, he would definitely collapse. Because people who have not experienced this pain of being buried alive will not understand. Zhou Nan didn't know that his mentality was quite normal, he could only use his slow-running brain to think about all this aimlessly and slowly. There was plenty of time, but it was enough for him to figure out some questions.
Two months later, Zhou Nan entered the blood-colored space again, but this time, after experiencing the first wave of bloody attacks, his strange feeling was not killed instantly, although it was greatly weakened, but he still survived.
With the help of a strange feeling of exhaustion, Zhou Nan could have time to take a look at this blood-colored space. Without the slightest delay, he took a deep breath, suppressed all his thoughts, and looked intently.
The blood-colored space is a blood-colored, blood-colored sky, blood-colored earth, blood-colored wind, blood-colored rain, and blood-colored everything. This space is entirely made of blood. But I don't know that it is the blood red in color, but it has a strong smell of blood, like a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, terrifying and abnormal.
Zhou Nan didn't know what the Dao Yin Cao Difu looked like. But at this moment, in his mind, the blood-colored space in front of him was not inferior to the Netherworld at all. The same horror is eerie, the same bloody horror.
Zhou Nan slowly floated through the blood-colored space, constantly dodging the terrifying blood demons that came one after another. But even so, from time to time, there was still some blood on his body, which made him embarrassed and miserable for a while.
Wandering in the blood-colored space for a while, Zhou Nan couldn't tell the direction, but felt that this blood-colored space was wide and abnormal. In his previous knowledge, except for the two Haotian stones given to him by his father Zhou Hao, there was no thing that could have such a spiritual space.
Wandering in the blood-colored space is very draining. I don't know how long it took, Zhou Nan, who was already exhausted and about to disappear, suddenly shook his whole body, stared closely at the blood-colored sky in front of him, his face was shocked, his mouth opened wide, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
I saw that more than 100 zhang in the air ahead, a white bone altar completely built of unknown strange beast bones appeared in the field of vision. The altar is divided into four layers, about 100 zhang high, and is circular, like a small island, suspended in the air, floating quietly. It's magical, but it's terrifying. The faint of heart may be scared to death just by looking at it.
Without hesitation, Zhou Nan exerted all his strength and flew to the altar.
However, what surprised him next was that he could only enter the first floor of the four-story altar. As for the second, third, and fourth floors, as soon as he approached, the altar would vibrate, sending out a blood-colored lightning bolt that knocked him away.
After trying a few times, Zhou Nan smiled bitterly, feeling the strange feeling of his body scattering with the wind, and reluctantly withdrew from the blood-colored space. But this strange white bone altar was firmly engraved in his mind.
had no choice but to quit, "Soul Refinement" was interrupted, and Zhou Nan experienced inhuman pain again.
Only this time, he gritted his teeth and persevered. It's no longer like the first time, rolling around in pain. His left hand did not break again.
After countless tortures, Zhou Nan has developed some immunity to the blood-colored space, and his injuries are no longer as serious as before. It only took less than a day for Zhou Nan to fully recover.
Looking at his left hand, which had gone through many exercises and had become pitch black and shining with silver light, Zhou Nan did not hesitate, and once again ran the "Soul Refining Technique" and entered the blood-colored space. This time, he decided to uncover the secret of the mysterious altar, he had been in the sealed dragon coffin for long enough, and if he didn't go out, he would probably miss the agreement with Wang Yuxuan.
Bearing the bloody attack again, Zhou Nan shook a few times, then stood still, followed the direction of the last time, and flew quickly towards the White Bone Altar.
A quarter of an hour later, Zhou Nan came to the first floor of the White Bone Altar. Without going any further, Zhou Nan searched carefully in this huge one-story altar. After turning around, Zhou Nan's eyes stayed in the center of the first floor of the altar.
In the center of the first floor, a stout blood-colored chain was suspended, and the two ends of the chain passed through the white bone altar, and I don't know where the road stretched. The chains are mysterious, very unreal in appearance, and smell of blood. Just sniffed lightly, Zhou Nan's face turned white unconsciously.
The chains were very long and weird, but strangely, outside the White Bone Altar, Zhou Nan did not find the blood-colored chains. Looking at the only chain, Zhou Nan frowned, his heart moved, and he muttered in a low voice, "Could it be that the secret of this altar is not on this chain?"
Slowly floated past, and Zhou Nan's strange feeling was wrapped around the blood-colored chains. But the moment he made contact, Zhou Nan only felt that his eyes were dark, and the vision in front of him changed, and he came to a black world.
There is no light in this world, and the darkness is terrible.
Coming to the black world, Zhou Nan adapted to it for a while, and then settled down.
But suddenly, Zhou Nan noticed that a small spot of light appeared in front of him. Staring at the small point of light, Zhou Nan did not move, looking quietly. After experiencing the murder of the cat in the sealed dragon coffin, subconsciously, he became more careful. No longer act recklessly out of curiosity.
After a while, just when Zhou Nan was on guard, the small light suddenly became larger and quickly approached him. Looking at the small light cluster not far away, Zhou Nan swallowed a mouthful of saliva and opened his mouth wide in surprise.
The small ball of light in front of him was nothing else, it was a mass of unconscious souls. The shape of the soul is that of a beast of the sea, with sharp teeth and fine scales. The small light group came to Zhou Nan's approach, and suddenly, the soul's blank eyes, 'poof', burst out with a dazzling blood-colored light.
The soul did not hesitate, and suddenly accelerated, and rushed towards Zhou Nan. Secretly said badly, Zhou Nan quickly hid. But the sea beast soul chased after him, and after a while, he was bitten a few times. Looking at the strange feeling of becoming smaller, Zhou Nan snorted coldly, his heart was fierce, he accelerated suddenly, and also pounced towards the sea beast.
After dozens of breaths, after a hard-fought battle, the battle between Zhou Nan and the sea beast was finally decided. He was stunned and tried to destroy half of himself, endured the pain of blood dripping from his heart, and destroyed the soul of the sea beast.
After a long time, Zhou Nan stopped, stabilized, and looked at everything in front of him again.
But suddenly, Zhou Nan stumbled under his feet and almost climbed to the ground.
I saw that in the originally dark space, countless small points of light appeared at the same time, like little stars, which looked very unchanged. But thinking of a certain possibility, Zhou Nan's scalp was numb, and his whole body trembled.
