When Yu Ziqing returned to Jinlan Mountain, he first sent a message to King Xiang, asking him to help find a more reliable guide, and then he would go to the extreme cold forbidden areas in the west of the earthquake.
I just don't know if there is such a guide now. If he were to find it slowly by himself, it would not be a wise move to just wander around in a place where there are thousands of miles of the same color and unknown risks.
The forbidden areas that Yu Ziqing has been to can only wander around the periphery at most. Just like the Silver Lake forbidden area, the core area is not dared to go casually.
A place that can be classified as a forbidden area is basically equivalent to entering at the ninth level, and there is still a risk of falling.
Therefore, there is also a saying that to judge who is stronger overall between two ninth-level warriors who have never fought against each other, it depends on who has been to the Great Forbidden Land and escaped unscathed.
Prince Dali went to the Forbidden Land alone and was able to recover the lost treasure. This was a very prestigious thing, and no one cared how she did it. The important thing was that she did it.
After making early preparations, Yu Ziqing was not in a hurry to leave. The evil king did have information, but it was not detailed. Moreover, the source of his information was from a long, long time ago, and he got it from the Yin Demon.
Yu Ziqing did not dare to believe blindly.
The profiteer Hungry Ghost has prepared a large amount of materials, and Yu Ziqing plans to personally refer to the instructions for the Spirit Transformation Array to set up a Spirit Transformation Array for Jinlan Mountain.
To include the entire Jinlan Mountain, it may take several years to arrange and adjust it.
Setting up a large spirit formation with your own hands is also a learning process.
Fortunately, the first step, exploring the terrain and landforms, has been completed a long time ago, and now a lot of time can be saved.
Time flies, two years have passed, and setting up the spirit transformation formation is easier than imagined.
It is also possible that he has accumulated more knowledge than expected, but he looks a bit scummy when compared with a bunch of heads of deans every day.
The core of the Spirit Transformation Formation was arranged by Yu Ziqing in Jinlan Mountain, adjacent to the exposed part of the Yuhua Tomb.
At the moment of activation, you can see dots of light on Jinlan Mountain, continuously converging down. When they reach the top of the mountain, they begin to turn into spiritual energy, gurgling down like a source of water.
It’s almost as expected, but it’s still a little short of the theoretical upper limit, and the level is still limited.
But the problem was not big. Yu Ziqing wandered to the place where the red hijab was trapped, performed a routine ritual, and used the power of the red hijab to bless the entire spirit transformation formation.
In an instant, the effect of the spirit-transforming formation he deployed exceeded the limit that could be achieved with perfect skills and suitable materials.
The red hijab was trapped and already lying flat.
He wanted to run away, but it was useless. Yu Ziqing had been borrowing his power to support the entire Jinlan Mountain protective formation.
This means that a ritual is running all the time, and he must cooperate fully. His own wishes are not important at all.
Now here comes another one, and he doesn't even bother to curse.
It had only been a few years since Yu Zi had left him alone, but he felt that these days were longer than the thousands of years in the abyss of sinking.
He began to recall many things, and he also remembered that when Yu Ziqing blinded Digu, he also said that time is a relative concept, not absolute.
He didn't understand it at all at that time, but now he understands it a little bit.
Even looking at Yu Ziqing's lack of respect for him, he seemed to feel that he could treat him calmly.
In contrast, the saints' attitude toward him was, on the surface, very respectful and polite.
In fact, it trapped him tightly, no matter what.
At least one should use the contract to let him do things, but there are no things outside the contract.
One of them pressed his neck respectfully, pushed him to the ground, and then took away the power from him very respectfully.
He began to wonder which one was better.
After Yu Ziqing finished his work, the red hijab didn't say anything or express anything. He looked like an old monk who had entered meditation and had already looked away.
"Don't worry, if I can find a suitable true form for you, I will definitely give it to you.
If you have your true form, the blessing effect may be better, and you will also find a way to advance.
You have been sinking in the mud of the troubled world for too long, and you have been too affected by malicious intentions.
You don't even know it, but your mind has been distorted.
The process of your recovery will be long, don’t be anxious..."
"Do you believe this yourself?" The red hijab asked calmly.
"Why don't you believe it?
It depends on what people do, not what they say.
Look at the few I rescued, which one has a new true form and a path to promotion?"
The red hijab stopped talking and waited quietly. He really couldn't believe anything Yu Ziqing said.
"Times are changing, really."
Yu Ziqing left a few words, turned around and left. Halfway there, he thought about it and seemed to have forgotten something.
Oh, I forgot to experiment. Can I cut off a piece from the red hijab and try it?
Forget it, it's not urgent.
His power is used to strengthen the formation. It's so useful. Let's keep it for now.
After three years of struggling, the layout and debugging was finally completed, and Yu Ziqing stopped taking care of it.
He even specifically told Zhong Shouzheng not to worry about the spirit formation. Now it was a durability test to see how long the formation could last without maintenance.
Make several copies of the gold book and send one copy to Lihuoyuan and Langyayuan.
People put in people, efforts and money, and if there are results, they cannot but be given to others.
But let me make it clear to them first. It is only a preliminary success now. The most critical durability test has just begun. If they set it up themselves, if there is any problem, don't look for others.
Leaving these things behind, Yu Ziqing headed for the abyss.
He is now relatively familiar with the abyss, and his range of exploration is higher than that of ordinary people.
In the past, those who explored the abyss had to first cross the abyss rift. After entering, their eyes would go dark, and they had to prevent being eroded and possessed by evil spirits.
Now that conditions are better, not many people still like to go to the abyss.
Near the abyss rift valley, the hunting of low-level monsters was all taken care of by hungry ghosts.
There may be unknown risks in deeper places, so naturally few people are willing to go there.
According to Evil Lord's information, Yu Ziqing led the two demons all the way across the territory of the Bloodthirsty Demonic Flower, and then continued to change direction and move forward for more than ten days, finally reaching the area mentioned by Evil Lord.
According to Evil Lord's information, there should be a vast lake here, but unfortunately at this moment, as far as the eye can see, not a drop of water can be found.
He stood on the edge of a cliff. The cliff was straight, and below him was a rift valley with no bottom. He could vaguely detect an aura similar to the cracks in the abyss.
Looking further ahead, with his eyesight operating to the extreme, what he saw seemed to be a seabed without sea water.
Thousands of feet deep, it was desolate and filled with a dead atmosphere. There was not even a trace of demons, and no bones or anything like that was found.
In the abyss, there are no traces of monsters, and there are no fragments of monster remains in the wilderness, so you have to be careful. It proves that there must be some danger here that can make the monsters retreat.
Yu Ziqing stood on the edge of the cliff, stamped his feet, and Zi Zaitian and Louhuai turned into black smoke and came out.
"Do you feel anything? Or, is there any relevant information in your inheritance?"
Lou Huai stood on the edge of the cliff, stuck his head out, and took a look at the dark rift valley below. He immediately frowned, and demonic energy surged around his body.
"I don't have any information. I feel like there is a crack here, and I can't feel any special atmosphere. There is just a feeling that makes me particularly repulsive, disgusted and even hateful."
Zi Zaitian also took a look, and his expression immediately became the same as Lou Huai's.
"There is indeed a very disgusting and instinctive feeling of disgust. I don't have any information. No, this feeling is the inheritance of instinct."
"Try to see if you can fly over."
Yu Ziqing glanced at Zi Zaitian.
Zi Zaitian looked at Lou Huai, and Lou Huai's eyes widened.
"I'm just a little human demon. No matter what I do, I can't clone myself."
"How about trying to catch two monsters?"
"Aren't you afraid of being exposed?"
"What are you exposing? We are demons. We just killed two demons. Is that what matters?"
"Hey, what you said makes so much sense. I even forgot that we are demons." Lou Huai suddenly realized.
As soon as the two sang in harmony, they immediately turned into black smoke and floated away.
Yu Ziqing's eyelids twitched slightly and he hid aside silently.
The two demons lurked toward the east, and after three days, they flew back with a demon in their arms.
A demon can fly and a demon cannot fly.
They threw the flightless demon out of the cliff first. Soon, the demon fell into the dark rift and disappeared.
Then he threw out another one that could fly. The demon wanted to escape, but when he saw the two crazy demons behind him, he only dared to fly forward.
Smoothly flew over the dark rift valley and entered the dead and desolate area.
But then, I saw that the aura on the demon's body was constantly changing, becoming manic, the demonic energy kept pouring out, and it rushed straight towards the earth with crazy howls.
With a muffled sound, the demon hit his head and died on the dry ground, and his body was blown into pieces.
After another moment, the fragments of his body slowly seeped into the ground and disappeared completely, as if they had never appeared before.
One person and two demons stood on the edge of the cliff, watching everything quietly, a little silent.
At this time, in the dark rift valley under the cliff, the dark wind whistled upward, like a sigh.
In the dark wind, a demon corpse that had turned into a gray-white mummy was swept up and flew up.
The mummy rolled and landed on the dry ground in the distance, shattered into a pile of fragments, and then slowly seeped into the ground and disappeared.
"There are many weird places in the abyss, and even the demons dare not approach them. This is one of them." Zi Zaitian swallowed.
They weren't afraid of dangers they could see, but this situation where they couldn't feel any breath and the demon turned into a mummy made them feel a little scared.
Yu Ziqing raised his eyes and looked into the distance, already ready to give up on this entrance.
There is a large area here, and the difference between the information told by Evil Lord is really quite big.
Yu Ziqing estimated that when an entrance to the abandoned Yin Demon's lair was left here, the abyss might not have been an abyss yet, or the abyss had just become an abyss.
Over time, the world has changed, and the abyss itself is unstable. Now that he has gone, he probably won't be able to find the specific place.
Fortunately, his expectations for this place were not high.
In contrast, since Evil Lord can say the words "The Forbidden Land of Extreme Cold", the time when the entrance appears must have been after the present world has appeared and the Forbidden Area of Extreme Cold has also appeared.
After coming here, Yu Ziqing was not in a hurry to leave, and asked the two demons to catch some demons.
Use the little monster to experiment with what is going on here.
Throw the little demon into the dark rift, and soon a dark wind will blow up from the bottom and blow the mummy out.
This time, when the dark wind dissipated and the mummy began to fall, Yu Ziqing grabbed it in the air, and Yang Shen suddenly opened his eyes and saw the mummy flying towards the cliff.
After the little demon's gray mummy landed on the ground, it shattered like sand with a slight collision.
Yu Ziqing didn't rush to touch it. He felt it carefully and found that there was no strength left.
The demon's demonic energy, blood, and all the power in the body have completely disappeared, and it is impossible to squeeze out the juice so cleanly.
When Yu Ziqing stretched out his hand and was about to touch it, Lou Huai quickly stopped Yu Ziqing.
"Brother, I'll come."
Then, Lou Huai picked up a bound little demon and pressed it on the pile of powder.
After waiting for a while, the little demon didn't respond at all.
Yu Ziqing stretched out his hand and lightly touched a larger fragment. With just a slight touch, the fragment turned into a pile of gray-white powder.
Yu Ziqing was silent for a moment, grabbed a handful, and looked at it in his hand for a long time.
Then, he took out the remaining bit of clay as a sample and compared it.
The two seem to be essentially the same thing. The crumbled ground is more like white soil that has completely lost its "nutrition".
Well, Yu Ziqing suddenly remembered that the five-color soil seemed to be a consumable item and could not be passed down as a family heirloom.
Especially when used to plant natural materials and earthly treasures, it will be consumed faster.
I'll go back and find someone to buy some scrapped clay for comparison.
I don't know if there is such a thing.
Because Tiancai Dibao eats soil very much, I heard the first person from the farm say that when planting Tiancai Dibao, you have to add new soil every few years, and the old ones are eaten by the plants.
Yu Ziqing waved his hand at the two demons and threw away all the remaining demons.
After collecting some more powder, Yu Ziqing looked towards the dark rift valley and muttered a few words.
"I don't mean to bother you, but if you like it, I'll bring some back next time you come."
He didn't know what was underneath, but Yu Ziqing took it as a lesson learned from the tiger.
Say a few nice words and be polite, but you won't lose a piece of meat.
As for whether he could understand it if there was something there, Yu Ziqing didn't care.
If you are more awesome, you will definitely understand the meaning.
If he couldn't even understand, at this level, would Yu Ziqing still care whether he understood or not?
The hope of finding the entrance is slim, and it's a bit weird here, so hurry up and get to the next one.
Yu Ziqing took the two demons away, and the place returned to its usual quiet and deadly silence.
The air here doesn't seem to move, not even the wind.
A few days later, the dark wind howled, as if something was breathing, and the dark rift expanded slightly, and then fell into deathly silence again.
A wisp of dark wind, taking advantage of the expansion of the dark rift, spiraled up the cliff and flew all the way into the distance.
At the same time, in the muddy sea of troubled times, people believed in the idea of "awakening the one in the depths." The guy who was called a fool by the red hijab was trying to awaken that person in the muddy sea of troubled times.
In the past few years, that guy who had been sinking for a long time and seemed to have been completely annihilated actually showed a slight reaction and seemed to be on the verge of waking up.
But not long after, that person had no further reaction.
On the contrary, other people who sank in the muddy sea of troubled times have either completely woken up, or have been completely annihilated.
At this moment, a guy who has been immersed in an era and still can't change his past thinking is constantly trying to wake up.
He was not swept up by the previous waves and completely annihilated, but it took so long that his memory armor was already very weak and could no longer maintain his existence.
He didn't want to be rescued by a human race like the Queue Faction, he just wanted to maintain his final glory.
Unfortunately, he kept trying to wake her up, but to no avail.
This time, before he even started trying, he felt a large-scale fluctuation begin around him.
That person was beginning to wake up. In the calm depths of the turbulent mud sea, waves suddenly arose. Under the surging undercurrent, a force far exceeding ten times or a hundred times was erupted.
Huge malice, mixed with indescribable power, erupted and involved this idiot on the spot.
His only remaining memory armor could no longer withstand it and was constantly being annihilated.
All the memories he had were destroyed here, and in the end only consciousness remained. The consciousness that could not remember anything was like an idiot.
That consciousness was sucked into it and disappeared into the depths of the muddy sea of the troubled world.
After a long time, when the wisp of dark wind on the other side had blown thousands of miles and could no longer continue, completely dissipating in the air, the turbulent undercurrents in the muddy sea of the troubled world gradually calmed down and returned to their former appearance.
Everyone felt it. Some idiot was completely annihilated.
That person hasn't been awakened yet, he just reacted a little bit, and that's the result.
At this time, the fence-sitting faction began to hold meetings again, preparing to directly and completely join the queue faction.
At least the team's escape is proceeding in an orderly manner, which is already very fast compared to the time they were trapped.
Ever since, communication in each small group has become more frequent.
The frequency of these people calling for stick figures is getting higher and higher.
No one likes the red hijab guy, he has been blackballed.
There are not many bird wheels, because before the stickman has stably entered the third stage, the black wheels are very black.
Although he is still on the black wheel with nothing to do...
…
On the other side, Yu Ziqing came back from the abyss, but except for some white soil that seemed to have lost nutrients and discovered a dangerous place in the abyss, there was no big gain.
After coming out, he went straight towards the earthquake.
King Xiang sent back the message that the guide he was looking for had been found.
When the big earthquake came again, Yu Ziqing clearly felt that most of the panic and uneasiness that filled the air decades ago seemed to have dissipated.
In the southeastern part of the earthquake, the population became more and more dense, but thanks to Emperor Zhen taking the opportunity to kill two princes and taking back the fiefdoms from the two wise princes, most of the internal conflicts of the earthquake were alleviated in one breath.
Now inside the Great Earthquake, the remaining feudal kings are either pretending to be dead, or they are taking the initiative to write letters, asking for their fiefdoms to be taken back, and they just need to be nominal kings.
The first generation of kings was not what it is now. It was just hereditary and independent of the country. It was merged bit by bit, coupled with constant rewards. As long as it lasted long enough, it would develop into what it is now.
The best land within a large area may all belong to a certain king.
If it's a favorable situation, it's natural for you to be good to me, and Zhenhuang doesn't dare to go too far.
But now is the time to test the title of king. If you are dishonest, then settle old scores.
This old account will be just like that if it is not opened, but if it is opened, a special warehouse will have to be set aside to store the files.
From what Yu Ziqing saw and heard along the way, no one had any objections to Zhen Huang, and those who had objections to Feng Wang had all reopened.
Gu Shitou came to greet Yu Ziqing. This guy was happy in this area and didn't miss Shu. Yu Ziqing didn't want this hateful guy to return to Jinlan Mountain.
When I saw King Xiang again, he was no different from before, except that his aura seemed to be stronger.
King Xiang brought out several boxes containing jade slips, gold volumes, and books.
"Almost all the records about the extreme cold forbidden areas are here.
Not even anyone from the imperial court would go to that damn place.
My father said at that time that whoever could develop a safe passage to the west and find a place where he could survive for a long time would be rewarded with a fief.
Unfortunately, west of the mountain range, even if it is not in the extreme cold forbidden area, it has always been deserted and there is no way to survive.
Very few people have been to the Forbidden City of Extreme Cold, and even fewer have come back alive.
All the bits and pieces of information are here.
That place is too dangerous, do you really want to go?"
"Well, I will definitely go, but the specific situation depends on the situation. If things don't work out, I will definitely turn around and leave."
As soon as King Xiang saw this posture, he knew that Yu Ziqing must have enough reasons.
"The guide is an old man. When he was young, he followed some seniors to the extreme cold forbidden area.
However, there was an extremely cold storm and only two people came back alive.
Another senior died long ago, and now only this senior is still alive.
He later visited the Extremely Cold Forbidden Land three times, hoping to recover the bones of his close relatives, as well as the inheritance and treasures left by his family there.
This time, if you don't come, he himself plans to go for the last time.
I originally tried to persuade him, but he was not willing to bring anyone with him. I heard that it was you, so he was willing to make a deal with you.
You can talk about it yourself when the time comes."
"Ganlin?"
"Well, that's it. He needs it himself, because he is too obsessed with it. He also wants to prepare some for his juniors, and probably make friends by the way."
"Fine."
Yu Ziqing has always controlled the amount of Ganlin's external output, but now he unexpectedly opened up the situation because of this.
A few days later, a hale and hearty old man with sharp eyes and gray hair came to Prince Xiang's Mansion with a middle school student and a young man.
Yu Ziqing immediately stepped forward to greet him.
"Junior Qing Ziyu, I have met my senior."
While talking, Yu Ziqing took out a box.
"Senior, I'm sorry that I'm too much trouble to go this time. I'm being careful, but I hope I can accept it."
The old man took the box cheerfully, opened it and saw a bottle of Ganlin liquid inside. He immediately had a better impression of Yu Ziqing.
I originally told King Xiang that I was afraid that Yu Ziqing would not agree, so I proposed the deal.
Unexpectedly, after they had just met, Yu Ziqing would be so polite and gave Ganlin as a gift without mentioning the transaction at all.
