Chapter 236 Jingchen

The sergeants stood ready, and half a moment passed, but still no death row prisoner came back.

The mirage-like picture shrank again, leaving less than ten feet.

Judging from what has been detected recently, this entrance can only last for one stick of incense at most.

Lu Qiu, the leader of the patrol, waved his hand, and the seven thousand sergeants separated into two columns of one thousand men and rushed towards the "window".

The military formation was about to advance into the secret realm. Yu Zhenzi, who was sitting cross-legged on the carriage shaft, shouted in a low voice: "Wait a minute."

He was giving orders suddenly, and his uniform footsteps suddenly stopped.

Lu Qiu and Tantai Zhong looked sideways and looked coldly at Xiang Yuzhenzi.

There was a crisp sound in the car curtain behind him, and Zhou Xu's fingertips tapped the car driver harder, seeming a little unhappy.

Yuzhenzi tilted his head slightly and explained: "Sir, the few dead people I mentioned just now are coming out."

As soon as he finished speaking, no one was around him, and Tantai Zhong disappeared.

The strong wind roared, and in the blink of an eye, Tantai Zhongyu swept to the bushland two hundred feet away and stood at the front of the military formation.

A dead person can still come back, and the body is fine. I'm just afraid that something dangerous will be brought out.

According to records in ancient books, it is rare to see a secret realm that is still alive. Most of them have been silent outside the big world for an unknown number of years, and there will be no living creatures inside.

In a small world of death, there are two things that scare outsiders. One is the obsession of the owner of the secret realm, and the other is the remaining ancient artifacts.

Tantai Zhong stood still without saying wait, and the scene inside the "window" changed drastically.

At the first glance, the scene of such a large sect is astonishing, with green mountains and green waters, and more than ten thousand disciples doing their own things.

In the blink of an eye, the prosperous scene disappeared, and was replaced by a dry world. It was still the same mountain peaks, but the vegetation was dead, and the mist covered the mountains.

There are nearly three thousand figures in the mist at this moment, but there is no one else but them.

These three thousand figures are the death row prisoners who entered it. Judging from their position, they couldn't get very far, less than 500 feet away from the entrance.

Most of them had their heads hanging crookedly on their necks, their arms drooping, and they walked towards the "window" here like puppets.

Not surprisingly, there were no survivors among them.

The remaining less than a thousand people lost their way and did not know where the exit was. They were wandering five hundred feet away. Some people kept falling to the ground and getting up again, becoming like other puppets.

Outside the secret realm, in the deep forest, the sound of dry swallowing can be heard in the night.

They guessed that this trip was not an easy one, and that "master" was probably their emperor. The emperor's arrival should have boosted their morale, but their steps were involuntarily retreating.

Not only the few people who were parasitized by Yu Zhenzi's flesh and blood, but all the other dead prisoners are walking back.

Their mouths open and close as if they are saying something, and no one outside the secret realm can hear them.

All the soldiers were afraid, but some people present were bright-eyed.

Yu Zhenzi, Lu Qiu, and Tantai Zhong looked past the dead people and towards a medicine field nearby in the secret scene.

Under the mist, there was a dark light in the medicine field that had been silent for hundreds or thousands of years.

It was an elixir, with black branches and leaves, and only a dull green color at the root.

"There are still spiritual plants of the grass and tree species surviving!"

They couldn't capture its aura, and they couldn't tell the specifics just by looking at it, because they had never seen the species of that elixir, but it was definitely not easy to support a spiritual plant that was still alive until now.

None of the three people were in a hurry to leave, and the "window" at the entrance to the secret realm was still shrinking.

More than two thousand death row prisoners who had been turned into puppets staggered and approached. When the first row of more than ten people crossed the line, the words in their mouths became clearer.

More than ten people in the first row landed on the ground. The moment they stepped onto the world, there was a "pop" sound of falling to the ground, and all sixteen people lost their breath.

Immediately afterwards, in the second and third rows, a large number of death row prisoners crossed the "window" and fell to the ground row by row.

Everyone here looked at it, and found that a corpse that had been reduced to a puppet fell down from the ground, and began to take one step, two steps, three steps...

Not long after, the bodies of dozens of death row prisoners were supported and walked four to five feet away.

Without any warning, the figures that had not fallen to the ground blurred and transformed into a figure wearing green and gray robes.

The person walking at the front, his robe fluttering, his blurred face vaguely transformed into a middle-aged man with a majestic expression.

This scene is like an illusion in a secret realm reappearing, as if the former sect members are alive again, and the words in their mouths also ring out.

"Coexist with the sect, and die with the sect..."

"Master entrusted the Shengong Sect to me... I need to protect the inheritance of this sect..."

"I am the leader of the Shengong Sect. Anyone who offends our sect will raze the ten clans and destroy them both spiritually and physically..."

Such a strange sight fell into the eyes of all the soldiers, and no one dared to act rashly. Many people's hands holding weapons were trembling slightly.

Those who don’t know are in awe, but Lu Qiu, Tantai Zhong, and Yu Zhenzi have indifferent eyes.

There is indeed no life in this secret realm, but the obsession of the owner of the secret realm to protect the sect before his death is enough to kill a group of weak people.

The reason why most of the prisoners on death row died is because the owner of the secret realm is obsessed with murder and wants to kill all the intruders.

If we had replaced it with an obsession that was not strong enough to kill, or a kind thought, the result would not be like this.

But whether it is good or evil, after all, it is just the obsession after death, and I don’t know how many years have passed away.

Looking at those death row prisoners, there are still seven to eight hundred people who are still lost and not dead. They can survive a stick of incense in both realms, so they don’t need to be too afraid.

The monks who cultivated a small world only existed in legends. No matter how powerful they were in the past, they are now just an obsession that is about to be worn away.

The "window" has shrunk to three feet, and Sui Emperor Zhou Xu's cold instructions came from inside the car curtain.

"Yu Zhenzi, go inside and get the medicine."

On the carriage shaft, the smile on Yu Zhenzi's face remained unchanged, and the entrance was about to close. If everything went well tonight, he could only take down the elixir plant in the nearby medicine field. It looked almost dead, and the roots still had some medicinal power.

This one plant is just a stump, so it won’t have his share.

If you want to gain more, you can only wait until another day to explore it and take a deeper look.

"Yes, sir."

"Lord Sashou, please help clear the way."

Before Yu Zhenzi finished speaking, a person had appeared in front of the entrance more than ten feet away. His escape speed was a bit slower than that of a martial artist in the fifth realm, but it was also completely beyond the ordinary fourth realm.

Tantai Zhong said nothing and kept his foot on the ground.

"Boom..." The earth and rocks outside the secret realm ahead were turned into powder.

Those who fell on the ground and those who came supporting them, the corpses of all the death row prisoners were shattered like earth and stone, and the disciples and sect leaders who were transformed by obsession were shattered together.

In an instant, the broken soil on the ground was mixed with blood, turning into bloody mud.

Not even using the small magical powers that a fifth-level martial artist had acquired after first realizing martial arts, just the Gang Qi shattered everything in front of him into dust-like powder.

Yu Zhenzi's figure swayed past, and when he landed, he was standing on the other side of the "window".

He glanced at the small, dead world here and stamped his feet on the spot.

After realizing that his body was fine and his mind was not confused for the time being, he raised his hand and performed a fire technique. The few remaining corpses of the death row prisoners in front were covered in five-color fire.

Passing through the waves of fire, Yuzhenzi walked straight towards the nearby medicinal field.

……

It was the same night, outside the border of Dasui, in the wilderness close to Liang State.

A stream flows down the sunken terrain and into the depths of the depression.

Less than three feet above the stream, there was a mirage like turbulent water waves. It was a mountain village full of peach trees.

It is also the result of obsession after death. Some people are attached to the sect, while others are nostalgic for an inconspicuous village.

In the picture, chickens, ducks, dogs, cows, children and village women... the figures come and go, and the past scenes of the mountain village are reproduced one by one.

It's midnight here in Dasui, but inside the mirage, the sun is shining brightly.

There are fallen flowers everywhere in front of Peach Creek, and several children are playing with the water. Not far away, several women are washing their clothes in the water.

At this time, on the village road, there were about forty outsiders walking among the villagers.

The visitors include a half-demon from the Chiyue Sect, a Taoist from the Ni Sa Tao, an elder from the Immortal Slaughter Sect whose body is wrapped in a group of Gu, and a skinny monk whose identity is unknown.

Once the secret realm is revealed, it will naturally be targeted by the major monk forces.

These intruders from Da Sui took advantage of the late night to enter this secret place, were wary of each other, and were scattered throughout the mountain village.

This place is like a real illusion, they are just spectators, and the villagers seem to be unable to see them or touch them.

Among the more than 40 outsiders, a young man dressed in purple looked irritable.

"The small world depends on the big world. There must be a road leading there. Why can't I find it..."

"A bunch of country bumpkins, how can I be willing to stay in Sui Country? We need to go back as soon as possible."

The other monks who broke into the secret realm did it for opportunities and possible benefits, while Tao Guangqing did it to find a way back to the Yin Yue Dynasty.
