After leaving the water bay, Zhang Ke returned to his original body size and used 'Thunderbolt Golden Light Escape' to travel north.
The green mountains are like black daisy, the green mountains are as beautiful as clouds, the flowing water is clear and the sound of clear springs is heard, and the sound of dragons roaring in the stream is heard.
The cliff is separated by tigers and dragons, apes and cranes are singing inside and outside the mountains. You can see the brilliant clouds in the morning and the golden crows falling in the evening.
The pristine natural environment made Zhang Ke feel extremely relaxed and happy. If he hadn't been worried about something in his heart, he would have liked to use the sky as a blanket and the earth as a bed to take a leisurely swim.
On the way north, Zhang Ke also encountered some obstacles.
A huge bird with three heads, a cloud-like ignorant spiritual creature born from vitality, a strange creature that spits out elements, etc. He was even trapped in a self-generated illusion between heaven and earth for three days.
Creatures that were malicious to Zhang Ke were directly killed by him, while some ignorant creatures that were just curious were given a lesson by Zhang Ke and then let go.
One day, when Zhang Ke was passing by a beautiful mountain peak, he suddenly saw thousands of auspicious energy bursting out from a strange rock on the top of the mountain and rising into the sky, with precious lights crisscrossing all directions.
Zhang Ke descended to the mountain out of curiosity and unexpectedly found an innate spiritual treasure among the strange rocks.
【Sun God Needle】
It is as thin as an eyebrow, its size is determined by the heart, and is made from the power of the sun. It contains the nature of the true fire of the sun and is designed to defeat evil spirits and ghosts.
According to Zhang Ke's estimation, the grade of this treasure should be at grade nine.
Although this treasure is of little use to Zhang Ke, this is the first time in Zhang Ke's life that he has obtained an innate spiritual treasure during an expedition, so he is naturally a little excited.
This realm is obviously in a primitive stage that has not been developed by practitioners. There are still countless treasures in this world that are dusted in every corner.
At the same time, Zhang Ke also realized that if he wanted to kill the ‘devil’ this time, it might not go well.
Practitioners are just a group of plunderers. After seeing the many treasures in this area, how many of them are still willing to kill the 'demons'?
Full of worries, Zhang Ke continued to march to the far north.
...
Two months later.
A golden line streaked across the sky.
After a while, the golden thread stopped in mid-air and manifested into a human form standing on the clouds.
Zhang Ke opened his white foggy eyes and looked into the distance.
But I saw a huge mountain thousands of feet high standing a hundred miles away.
In the sky above the mountain peak, purple clouds gathered all over the sky, covering the top of the mountain like an umbrella canopy. It seemed to be hundreds of feet in size.
And all over the mountain peaks, there are countless buildings built on top of each other in a well-proportioned manner.
Zhang Ke's spiritual thoughts spread out like waves, and he saw countless humans as tall as the Shuiwan tribe members moving densely among the buildings like ants.
These people, regardless of gender, young or old, were almost naked, working staggeringly under the whips of some overseers wearing helmets and whipping armor.
Zhang Ke could see clearly that both the supervisors and the enslaved people were from the human race in the ‘Mountain and Sea Realm’.
Occasionally, some tall humans with strange purple eyes would come in and out of various buildings.
These should be the people possessed by the ‘demons’.
The ‘demons’ didn’t care about Zhang Ke’s spying from afar, and would look at Zhang Ke from time to time and make silent mockery.
There are many objects for the enslaved humans to work on, such as tree trunks that are several feet long for two people to hold together, boulders weighing tens of thousands of kilograms, various huge and heavy metal supports, etc.
Each item requires the combined efforts of at least ten people to move it.
You need to know that the humans in this world are nine feet tall, and even ordinary people have the strength of two oxen.
But looking at the expressions on these people's faces, it was clear that they had tried their best and even exhausted their bodies.
The reason for this is that each item requires a team to carry, and their waists are tied to each other by leather ropes.
If one person slacks even slightly, the entire team will be crushed by the weight of the items in an instant, and no one will survive.
And a few feet away from this winding mountain road is an unobstructed abyss of thousands of feet.
As long as Zhang Ke watched for a while, two groups of people were crushed by heavy objects and rolled down the cliff.
It can be guessed from the numb expressions of those working people that this is a common thing.
Zhang Ke seemed to hear a hint of relief from the screams of the humans who fell into the cliff.
Life is worse than death, death is also peaceful!
At the foot of the mountain, there are many strange and tall buildings surrounding the mountain. Countless processed wood, stone, and metal components were shipped from here.
As the line of sight extends outward along these resources, you can also see countless people continuously transporting various primitive resources into the buildings at the foot of the mountain.
Further away, human beings continued to gather in all directions, escorted by some men in armor, to the mountain peak.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Ke suddenly understood where the tribe members went after being taken away every few years as Red Silkworm told him.
Calculating the huge consumption of human beings by this mountain peak, coupled with the large number of human beings here, and the fact that some people are only taken away from the water bay every five years, Zhang Ke came to a terrible guess.
The human tribes controlled by the ‘Devil’ may be much more than I imagined.
And this realm is much larger than I imagined.
The only thing that puzzled him was, were all the human races from the south and the north traveling like this across mountains and rivers to get here?
Along the way, he clearly understood the terrible dangers everywhere in this realm.
It is simply impossible to reach here safely with just the strength of ordinary humans.
It seems that the 'Heavenly Demon' has its own means to make people gather quickly, but I don't know whether it relies on the teleportation formation or some other means.
Zhang Ke thought to himself and kept this in mind. If the human race can gather quickly, it also means that the 'demons' also have the ability to gather quickly.
This is not good news for Zhang Ke and other practitioners who are preparing to strangle the 'Heavenly Demon'.
I don’t know why this realm suppresses the spiritual thoughts so much. Zhang Ke’s spiritual thoughts could originally travel four thousand miles, but after falling into this realm, they can only detect four hundred miles, which is equivalent to being reduced by 90%.
.
After his enlightenment, his soul was transformed, and now he can detect eight hundred miles away.
Therefore, the scene hundreds of miles away is as clear to him as the lines in the palm of his hand.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! From this, we can see countless humanoid corpses and skeletons in the deep stream at the foot of the huge mountain, which are obviously left behind by humans who fell into the cliff.
These corpses have even filled up the deep mountain streams and bulged high. Countless scavenging creatures of different sizes roared with red eyes, frantically tearing at the corpses everywhere.
Zhang Ke secretly gritted his teeth. Although the humans in this realm were different in height and appearance from the humans in the blue realm, they were still human beings.
At this time, seeing the miserable situation of the same race, it is natural to feel that something has harmed others.
Judging from the number of corpses piled up in the mountain and the degree of decay revealed, the work on the mountain peak has lasted for at least hundreds of years.
The buildings on the mountain peak are not randomly built, but countless buildings condensed into a huge human face.
It's like a giant's head is embedded in the mountain peak. Looking from different directions, different expressions will appear on its face.
‘greed, anger, ignorance’
And if you look down from the vertical sky, you can see a huge face that seems to be smiling but not smiling.
The project was not finished at this time, but the basic outline had been completed. Zhang Ke circled the mountain several times, feeling extremely shocked.
The mountain peaks are also shielded from spiritual exploration. Zhang Ke would not dare to take risks easily before knowing how many ‘demons’ there are and their strength.
The 'Devil' is different from the Zerg with low intelligence. Even if he is good at transformation, he may not be able to hide it.
After carefully observing the mountain peak, Zhang Ke turned into a golden thread and flew in another direction.
After ten breaths, Zhang Kefei stopped two hundred feet in front of a huge white cloud, raised his hands in the direction of the white cloud and saluted.
"I have met all of you fellow Taoists, and I wonder if we can get together?"
When his spiritual thoughts were scattered before, Zhang Ke discovered that there were a large number of auras of practitioners here, and he guessed that they were left behind by those who came to this world with him.
Because these auras were not covered or hidden, Zhang Ke decided to come and explore the situation.
"Fellow Taoist Ruyi, please come and talk!"
A clear voice sounded in Zhang Ke's ears.
Zhang Ke cupped his hands again and dodged into the white clouds.
This white cloud stretched out to a size of hundreds of feet, and on it stood nearly a thousand True Monarchs of the 'Dongtian Realm' in different clothes.
Each and every one of them stands tall and graceful.
Judging from the different styles of clothing worn by everyone, it is obvious that they all come from different realms.
The practitioners above the white clouds dared to let Zhang Ke enter the white clouds because there were so many Dongzhen Lords there that even if the Dao Lords came in alone, they could only go out sideways.
Zhang Ke dared to enter the area covered by so many true kings because he had confidence in his own strength. Even if something went wrong, escaping would not be a problem.
Zhang Ke stood on top of the clouds, his white mist-like eyes looking around at the numerous Cave Heavenly Lords.
"Presumably all the fellow Taoists were summoned here by the Heavenly Lord's order!"
This statement not only clarifies its origin, but also serves as a test for everyone.
"hehe!"
A Taoist Dong Tianjun with warm and jade-like eyes chuckled lightly. The voice sounded to be that of the person who had spoken to Zhang Ke before.
"My poor Taoist Mingxin has met Taoist friend Ruyi. It is indeed as Taoist friend said. All the Taoist friends present are here under the order of Tianzun."
True Lord Mingxin paused briefly, glanced at the golden pagoda between Zhang Ke's eyebrows and the white mist-like eyes, and asked tentatively:
"My Taoist friend seems to be no longer a demon disciple, so why was he summoned by the Heavenly Lord's order? Besides, I don't know what your eyes are..."
The golden pattern of the Dangmo on Zhang Ke's eyebrows has long since dissipated, but there is still the aura of the Dangmo lineage, but this aura is extremely weak.
It is difficult for many true kings to detect it, and only the 'demons' who are enemies of life and death can clearly distinguish it.
Zhang Ke knew very well that this was Zhenjun Mingxin’s test.
The ability of the 'Heavenly Demon' to seize bodies is extremely strong. Only the disciples of the Demon Killer are protected by the golden patterns of 'Destroy the Demon' and are not afraid of being possessed by the 'Heavenly Demon'.
Since Zhang Ke doesn't have the 'Demon Killing' golden pattern, it's hard to be sure that he is still the same person at this time, and his white mist-like eyes are indeed suspicious.
Zhang Ke smiled bitterly. He didn't expect that his habitual covering up would bring trouble. If he had known this, he would not have covered it up.
"I was also a disciple of the Demon Slayer, but now that I have a priesthood, I can only lose the title of disciple.
Alas, I have been protected by the Heavenly Lord in this life, and have solved dangers many times. Since I have been given orders and calls, I should obey them.
In addition, my eyes were blind due to injuries in the past, which makes all fellow Taoists miss me.
I wonder if Taoist friend Mingxin has a way to identify ‘demons’, it also opened my eyes.”
After a few simple explanations, Zhang Ke asked Zhenjun Mingxin to investigate him.
Ming Xin Zhenjun breathed a sigh of relief. Among the many Dong Zhenjun present, there were many who were in the same situation as Zhang Ke.
There have been many estrangements caused by this suspicion before. The Ruyi Zhenjun in front of him has a good temper and has no arrogance.
"excuse me!"
Although True Lord Mingxin no longer has any doubts about Zhang Ke, some things still need to be done.
I saw him taking out a bronze mirror, holding both ends with both hands and looking at Zhang Ke.
"Buzz~!"
A ray of moon-white light instantly shone on Zhang Ke, illuminating everything inside and out.
Stimulated by this brilliance, Zhang Ke's body surface emitted a hazy white-golden luster, showing the characteristics of this technique.
But the expressions of Ming Xin Zhenjun and other Dong Tianzhen Jun changed. Their expressions became wary, and they all looked at Zhang Ke's left hand.
True Lord Mingxin narrowed his gentle eyes and asked in a deep voice:
"Fellow Taoist Ruyi, may I ask what is in your left hand?"
Zhang Ke lowered his head and saw that his whole body was shining with platinum light, but only his left hand was shining with purple light.
"Oh! Is this what Fellow Taoist Mingxin is talking about?"
Zhang Ke said, stretching out his left hand, and a 'sealing ball' covered with runes appeared in the palm of his hand.
Under the white light of the moon, a faint purple light is constantly seeping out from the 'sealed ball'.
"What is this?"
The auras of many Dong Tianzhen Lords condensed, and the vitality of heaven and earth was immediately disrupted by the influence of countless qi machines.
"I encountered an ambush by the 'Heavenly Demon' before. I killed the 'Phaseless Demon' and I captured and sealed the 'Phaseless Demon'."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhang Ke said, casually throwing the 'sealed ball' towards True Lord Mingxin.
True Lord Mingxin did not catch the 'Sealed Ball', but instead used all his strength to activate the [Charter Mirror] to shine at Zhang Ke.
‘Zhan Zhang’ is also called ‘狴紴’. According to legend, it can distinguish between right and wrong, and is ranked alongside ‘True Listen’.
If the white light of the moon before was like a lamp, then the white light that shrouded Zhang Ke at this moment was as dazzling as the sun at noon.
Under the irradiation of this light, the platinum light around Zhang Ke suddenly flourished, confronting it tit for tat.
Looking from a distance, it looks like two big suns crossing the sky.
Feeling the white light probing around his body, Zhang Ke felt displeased. He raised his left sleeve and swept it away. The white light in the sky was immediately reflected back and illuminated Zhenjun Mingxin himself.
"Ouch!"
True Lord Mingxin was caught in a sudden light, and he quickly put away the [Charter Mirror], secretly astonished at Zhang Ke's strength.
I tried my best to activate the spirit treasure, but it was easily reflected. Obviously, this Ruyi Zhenjun was far superior to me in terms of strength and mastery of the rules of the avenue.
The 'Sealed Ball' fell into the hands of a stern-looking Dong Tianjun next to him.
This person's name is Peng Fa. He has been practicing Yuan Shen for thousands of years and is good at the art of sealing.
But looking at the many mysterious and complicated lines of runes in the 'Sealed Ball' in front of me, my eyebrows wrinkled slightly.
'I can only understand 30% of the complex runes in this 'sealed ball', but I can't even solve it.'
Seeing that Zhang Ke passed the test, many other Dongzhenjun's expressions softened, and the tense atmosphere immediately disappeared.
A little light popped up from Zhang Ke's fingertips and landed on the 'sealed ball'.
A flash of light exploded, and the 'sealing ball' instantly disintegrated, and a man measuring two feet and two feet grew from small to large before everyone's eyes.
As soon as Lang Hu appeared, his whole body tensed up and he bared his teeth, ready to fight Zhang Ke desperately.
When he looked around, his ferocious face suddenly froze.
'Where...where is this?'
'Why...why are there so many terrible practitioners?'
