Cassia was shocked, and after careful sensing, she found that the concentration of spiritual energy here could not be compared with the original continent, and could only be regarded as the level of a top cultivation planet.
However, she is more concerned about another issue than whether this is the original continent.
"Where is the Xuanyan Ancient Tree! Where did that guy go?" Cassia looked around, but found no trace of the Xuanyan Ancient Tree, and became a little anxious.
Lin Chen sighed: "The space tunnel just now has many exits, and obviously we still lost it. However, he is definitely somewhere here. The top priority is that we must first figure out where this is!
In fact, the current situation is much better than I expected. Before you rush in, don't you think about it, maybe this is a trap, maybe he has Supreme Realm helpers here, if we follow in, maybe
Are you going to give up your life?"
Cassia had also calmed down a lot. She didn't care about her life or death, but thinking that Lin Chen was involved after all, she apologized: "I was too impulsive."
"There's no need to apologize. I understand how you feel. Let's search first to see if anyone lives here. If we can find someone, we can figure out where this place is," Lin Chen said.
Cassia was silent for a few seconds and said: "We really need to figure out where this is first. But, can you let go of your hand first?"
"hand?"
Lin Chen was stunned and glanced at the right hand holding the Xuanyuan gun. Obviously, Cassia was not talking about this one.
He looked at his left hand, which was holding Cassia just like when he was chasing Xuan Yan Ancient Tree before, but the position he was holding now was not on her slender waist, but on top of her waist...
"Well……"
"Why don't you take your hands away quickly!" Cassia said angrily.
"Ah! Oh! I...I really didn't mean to do this." Lin Chen quickly took his hand away and said with a smile. His originally calm state of mind rippled uncontrollably, and his mouth became dry.
.
"If you did it on purpose, I won't let you go even if I risk my life!" Cassia glared at him in shame and changed the subject, "Which direction are you going in?"
There was yellow sand in all directions. Lin Chen didn't even know where he was, so how could he know which direction to go in. Cassia asked Lin Chen for his opinion, as if it had become an instinct.
Lin Chen was not in a hurry. He waited until the side effects of the "Fire Spirit Demonic Body" secret method arrived and adjusted his body before taking Cassia forward.
It headed forward, flew hundreds of miles, and finally left the desert.
Instead, there are barren hilly areas.
Lin Chen was in no hurry and continued on his way, releasing his spiritual thoughts to spread in all directions. Soon, he showed joy: "There is a family five or six hundred meters ahead on the left! There are indeed people living here. Let's go over and ask, what is this house?
where."
This was an extremely dilapidated house. Lin Chen and Cassia appeared in the small courtyard surrounded by bamboos. They walked to the door and were about to knock on the door when they heard a quarrel coming from inside.
"Well, you heartless bastard, if you don't send her to Broken Soul Valley, you want to kill me and the two children, right? Ouch! Why do I have such a miserable life! What a heartless guy like you!
, I can’t live through it, I can’t live through this life!”
A woman's wails were heard, mixed with the childish cries of two children.
"What are you talking about! What do you mean I want to kill you and the two children, but...but she is my mother! I heard that no one who was sent to the Soul-Broken Valley could survive.
Come down! If you send her to the Valley of Broken Souls, you will be waiting for death. If I send my mother to die, am I still a human being?"
"If you let your mother die, you are not a human being. If you let me and the child die, you are a human being, right? Wow! Why do I have such a miserable life! According to the rules of Tianming Temple, once anyone reaches sixty
At the age of 30, he must be sent to the Soul-Desolating Valley to wait for death.
If they find out and you hide her at home instead of sending her to Broken Soul Valley, then not only will she die, but our whole family will die with her!"
…
The sounds of crying and arguing, the sounds of men sighing, and the hysterical crying of babies were all mixed together, making people feel a little sad inexplicably.
Lin Chen and Cassia, who were about to knock on the door, looked at each other in shock.
When you reach the age of sixty, do you have to be sent to the Valley of Broken Souls to wait for death?
Although they don't know where the Valley of Broken Souls is, that's not important. To put it simply, people here who reach the age of sixty must be sent to a place to wait for death.
If the family doesn't send the person over, will the whole family be buried with him?
"What kind of bullshit rule is this? What benefit will it bring to the so-called Temple of Heaven and Hades by sending a 60-year-old man to die?"
Cassia frowned, disgusted with this inexplicable rule, and also disgusted with the Celestial Underworld Temple.
The people of the Shekui tribe basically do not die well because of the strange disease.
And the people here can obviously live to die of natural old age, but they have to be sent to wait for death after the age of sixty!
This kind of rule, in her opinion, is simply ridiculous!
Lin Chen had never heard of such a bizarre thing, and he didn't even know how to answer it for a while.
Any behavior of a monk definitely has his own purpose, but he really can't think of any benefit to the force called Tianming Temple by letting people who reach a certain age die.
"Weird thing!" Lin Chen muttered softly.
At this moment, an old voice came from the room.
"Don't quarrel. Don't quarrel anymore... Zhuzi, don't quarrel with your wife. She is also thinking about this family. Just send your mother to Broken Soul Valley. This is life. In our world, unless you
If you can join the Tianming Temple, otherwise, no one will be able to escape this fate."
The old voice seemed very calm, but the middle-aged man inside burst into tears when he heard this.
The middle-aged woman who was originally complaining stopped speaking. I wonder if she thought that one day in the future, when she gets older, she will also face this fate.
Creak——
After a while, the old wooden door was pushed open.
A middle-aged man in simple clothes walked out, carrying a skinny old woman on his back. His eyes were red and his feet were like lead, and he walked towards the barren mountains in the distance.
After he walked some distance away, Lin Chen and Cassia walked out of the shadows behind him.
"Let's go. Follow us to see where the Valley of Broken Souls is and what the so-called death is all about! I don't think it's as simple as waiting for the old woman to die on her own!"
Lin Chen's eyes were full of curiosity. At his current stage, there were very few things in the world that could make him curious. It was really rare to encounter one in front of him.
