Chapter 1681 Thousand Illusions and the Inverted Sea
Speaking of going out to a restaurant, He Lingchuan's stomach growled.
Previously, I was busy fighting, and I didn't have any food for more than ten hours. Now I relax and feel hungry.
He went out and gave two orders, and within a quarter of an hour, the guards brought the wine and food.
After the business talk was over, it was time to drink and chat.
Just when the two were chatting relaxedly and laughing happily, He Lingchuan suddenly asked: "So, what is Mr. Xin good at?"
"Me?" Xin Yi thought for a while, "I probably know more people and know more things, and others are willing to interact with me."
He Lingchuan knew that Xin Yi's abilities were more than that, but since he mentioned that he had rich experience, He Lingchuan immediately followed the trend of the conversation and asked:
"Then I'm going to ask Mr. Xin for some secrets - I'm very curious, what kind of immortal is the current rotating helmsman of Lingshan, Qianhuan Zhenren?"
A few months ago, He Lingchuan also asked the same question, but Xin Yi avoided it.
A few months later, he brought up the old conversation again, and asked more directly than last time.
But Xin Yi is now very familiar with him, and he still asks He Lingchuan to answer questions all day long. What's wrong with him answering one or two questions?
"Brother He is still interested in this?"
"Why aren't you interested? I haven't seen a great immortal yet." He Lingchuan shrugged, "Commander Zhong said that there are true immortals in Lingshan who usually stay in seclusion, but will come out and take turns taking charge of Lingshan to avoid unrest in the world."
The immortals from Lingshan adopted a rotation system when they came out of seclusion. This was what Wang Xingyi told He Lingchuan. But it didn't matter, Zhong Shengguang didn't mind him carrying him out at all.
He said this to imply to Xin Yi that he was not ignorant about Lingshan.
Xin Yi already had a certain understanding of He Lingchuan's status and character. Thinking that this was not a secret within Lingshan, he said: "Lingshan is indeed controlled by the ancient immortals in turns. There are two people at the helm today, one named
Xiao Hanzi, the other one is Qianhuan Zhenren."
He Lingchuan's breath stopped for a moment.
Qianhuan Zhenren! Sure enough, Lingshan in this era is controlled by Qianhuan Zhenren.
When Mou Guo issued a mission to him and asked him to awaken Master Qianhuan, the information provided showed that Master Qianhuan had been in seclusion for more than 150 years.
He should have gone into seclusion after his shift, that is - he was on duty during the Panlong City era!
It can be said that Lingshan at this stage should be controlled by Master Qianhuan and Xiao Hanzi.
Sure enough, it worked out after just one try!
"How long will it take for these immortals to take turns?"
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth is thin. After these immortals come out of isolation, they are like giant whales coming ashore. They can survive for a short time, but the quality is not high. They often have to pour water on their bodies. No, it is necessary to pour spiritual energy on them to survive.
After a period of time like this, the immortal has to go back to retreat to recuperate and replenish his vitality.
"This period of time is not fixed, so that others will not find out the pattern and take advantage of it." Xin Yi replied, "But the shortest time is thirty years. I remember that the person who has been at the helm the longest is Xuanlu Shangxian, seven years in total.
Twelve years. However, the loss was too great, and he had to rest for more than a hundred years before he could come out again."
He Lingchuan exclaimed: "When did these two great immortals come out of seclusion?"
"Xiao Hanzi was nine years ago, Qianhuan Zhenren is even closer, and he was released from seclusion less than three years ago."
Only three years! He Lingchuan's eyes flashed to prevent Xin Yi from seeing his surprise.
As Xin Yi said, the rotating Immortal will not be less than thirty years in office. Qianhuan Zhenren has only been here for more than two years. Logically speaking, he will have to work for at least thirty or forty years before handing over the authority to the next one.
Ancient Immortal, you just went to retreat yourself.
But the reality of history is that Qianhuan Zhenren only reigned for a dozen years, which is considered the shortest record.
What happened was that he was asked to end his shift early and go back to retreat.
Qian Huan left early, and the other ancient immortals who took over Lingshan would definitely not be happy. When he came out, he would have to consume the spiritual energy stored in his body, and taking care of Lingshan's affairs would be a lot of hard work. How could he be as leisurely as cultivating in the cave?
So, what problem did Qian Huan encounter? The trouble that allowed him to retreat in advance must be a big deal.
"So, as an ancient immortal, what kind of magical powers does this Qianhuan Master have?"
"That's complicated. I only know a little bit about it." Xin Yi said with a smile, "He can put you in jail without knowing it, and then change the people around you again and again, and you won't even notice. This Qian
Huan Zhenren's ability is not as simple as superficial skills, cultivation, and fighting. If he wants to deal with you, you have no way to guard against him. Even if you open your eyes wide and be vigilant, it is still difficult to tell the truth from the lie. Well, no, in
What is true is false, and what is false is true."
"I don't understand." He Lingchuan sighed falsely, "But I really want to admire the immortal's grace."
"General He is still young, and there are plenty of opportunities." Xin Yi said smoothly, "Besides, you are not bad either. I see, even if you sell someone, that person will still count the money for you with a smile on his face."
The two looked at each other and laughed.
Xin Yi continued: "In fact, Lingshan has been divided into two factions for a long time. One faction advocates actively joining the world, while the other faction still dislikes the secular world and hopes to avoid worldly fate."
He Lingchuan shook his head: "With Bejia and the God of Heaven here, is there any place in Chen Yuan that you can avoid if you want to?"
Xin Yi held up his palm: "It's the opposite of the opposite, this is the truth!"
He sighed again: "General He understood the truth in his early twenties. Some people can't figure it out even if they live for thousands of years. Eating rice for so many years in vain, no, it's a magic pill."
He Lingchuan couldn't help laughing. It seemed that Mr. Xin was a worldly person. This could be seen from his usual speech and behavior.
"I also heard that there is a strange place in the world called the Upside Down Sea?" He Lingchuan Zhuangzuo accidentally mentioned, "Mr. Xin has traveled all over the world, has he ever been there?"
He Lingchuan learned from Lingshan's information that Master Qianhuan went to the Inverted Sea to enter meditation more than 150 years ago. He also heard that ancient immortals usually changed places to retreat. In other words, the Master Qianhuan in the Inverted Sea at this time had nothing to do with it.
When he asked about Diaoduhai, Xin Yi only thought that he was curious about the outside world. Although the young general of Panlong City was a genius in fighting, he had been in Panlong Wasteland all year round and lacked experience.
"The upside-down sea? It really deserves the word 'strange'." Xin Yi had no expression on his face and just asked casually, "Where have you heard of this place name?"
"Mr. Lu Xunlu." He Lingchuan was talking nonsense again, "One time while drinking, he said that the Blade Port at the southern end of Bailie is facing an archipelago. The island is shrouded in evil spirits all year round, and no living beings can come near it, but it is a kind of
The home of strange sea monsters.”
"This kind of monster is called a python. It lives on the shore and hunts in the water. It is difficult for ships that stray into the depths of the archipelago to get out. One important reason is that the shady snakes eat people. And this group of shady snakes come from a strange place, upside down.
The sea." He Lingchuan knew that the more effective information he gave, the more likely it would be the truth. "Mr. Lu also said that he had met a person from the upside-down sea. He was told that it was a paradise in the world, without war or disputes.
Not affected by gods. I thought, is there really such a good place in the world?"
Panlong City has been mired in war for many years. He Lingchuan yearns for such a peaceful and peaceful place. Xin Yi can understand.
"I haven't been there, but I heard that the original name of the Twist Sea was the Fantasy Sea, because it was shrouded in heavy fog and evil spirits all year round. The sea surface was like a dream, and few ships could move on it. The Twist Sea was once part of the North Sea, which is also a part of the Endless Sea.
.”
He Lingchuan nodded and waited for him to say "later".
"Later, the war between immortals and demons broke out, and the world was devastated. The rules in many places changed, and so did the Fantasy Sea."
"It is said that the shocking battle between Holy Lord Lingxu and Dragon God took place in the Endless Sea. It was so powerful that it even broke some laws of heaven and earth, causing a powerful mutual force to erupt between this world and the void. The fantasy sea was sucked into it, and from then on
It was renamed 'Upside Down Sea' and only under special circumstances can outsiders enter."
"It turns out that it's not in this world. No wonder it's not affected by the gods." He Lingchuan sighed in admiration and still asked in a yearning tone, "How can we find it?"
"The entrance to the Upside Down Sea is in the vast North Sea. It's an endless ocean. If you look for it like a headless fly, it's impossible to find it. Moreover, even if someone finds it by following the rules, they won't be able to get in at the wrong time."
"opportunity?"
"Don't ask me, I don't know either."
He Lingchuan touched his nose: "It's so difficult, has anyone really gone in? Could it be that it was made up?"
"Of course there is." Xin Yi laughed, "There are inhabitants in the upside down sea."
He Lingchuan was surprised: "Human?"
"Well, how about the four words of chance and coincidence? Some people can't pursue it all their lives, and some people don't want to go but are swept into the Upside Down Sea by the storm. They can't get out anyway, so they can only settle down and reproduce for generations.
It can be considered a blessing in disguise. The person Lu Xun met may be the descendant of these ancestors." Xin Yi added, "Not only humans, there are also fish, beasts, and monsters in the Upside Down Sea, which are no different from ordinary ocean islands."
"I would like to see it if I have the chance."
Xin Yi took a peanut and said, "General He is so young that he shouldn't have such thoughts of escaping from the world."
He Lingchuan said lazily: "It's human nature to avoid disaster. If the upside-down sea is big enough, I will encourage Commander Zhong to move the soldiers and civilians of Panlong City into it and ignore this ruined world!"
"..." It was whimsical. Xin Yi also knew that he was joking, "Just tell me the battle plan for tomorrow."
"good."
On the Jinying front line, under the temper of the war, the Seymour Army and the Yuheng Army he brought have successfully integrated and cooperated seamlessly. And after these few months of persistence and battles, they faced the Bejia Army and became increasingly fierce.
I have confidence and I am no longer as worried as I was at the beginning.
But He Lingchuan knew that it would be difficult to hold the Jinying front line in the end.
He was only halfway through when the kestrel landed on the wooden pillar outside the window and nodded to him:
"General, it's time to return to the city."
According to the plan, He Lingchuan will leave for Panlong City today.
Xin Yi was very understanding, touched his belly and stood up: "I drank too much, I'm going back first."
