After setting off from the palace, Chu Yan drove the spirit boat and flew all the way to the northwest.
The farther you fly, the less vegetation there is on the ground, exposing large areas of exposed blue-gray rocks.
After waiting for two days, there was a vast expanse between heaven and earth, and as far as the eye could see, it was all vast rocky land.
At this time, the wind and sand also became larger.
From time to time, Chu Yan could see terrifying tornadoes that penetrated the sky and the earth, with a diameter of more than dozens of miles, causing mountains and rivers to move rapidly.
In the strong wind, millions or tens of millions of tons of sand and gravel were rolled up, and wherever it passed, the ground was completely worn away.
Even the convex mountain peaks will be ground into flat ground in an instant.
And because there is no water flow or vegetation, the temperature difference between day and night is huge here.
At the hottest time at noon, it is like a furnace.
Put a piece of meat outside, and in a few breaths it will be cooked and turned into roasted meat. It won't take a moment before it will turn into charcoal.
At night, it becomes extremely cold, like a glacier.
No matter how thickly dressed a mortal is, if he stands there, he will be frozen into an ice sculpture in the blink of an eye.
For several generations, members of Kong Xian's family were able to lead troops to defend one side in such an extreme environment, and even defeated the demon and captured and killed its leader. One can imagine the effort they put into it.
It is precisely because of this that the attitude of the royal family towards him now makes Kong Xian even more chilled.#@$&
Fortunately, the emperor of the country still has great trust in the Confucius family.
But Chu Yan knew that this kind of trust and protection also had a time limit.
Once the Kong family cannot show their new use for the royal family in the next time, and because he is too close to the Tianya Sect, the emperor's trust will slowly be eroded.
By the end, all trust was gone.
And if Kong Xian's level of strength is not enough to intimidate the other party, it will be difficult to save their entire family just by being a Tianya Sect disciple.%&(&
Chu Yan has experienced betrayal, so at this time he can feel the pressure on Kong Xian more deeply than others.
With this mood, Chu Yan continued to move forward.
Half a day later, a huge crack in the distance, running through the north and south, like a huge mouth of the earth with no end in sight, appeared in Chu Yan's sight.
This crack in the earth is unknown how long it is and is hundreds of miles wide. It stretches across the earth. Just one look at it from mid-air will make one feel numb on the scalp, chill in the heart, and generate fear.
Chu Yan concentrated his eyes, looked down from a high position.
I don’t know how deep this crack is, and I can’t even see the bottom at this time.
According to the map Kong Xian gave him before, he led his army into the entrance of the crack, which was dozens of miles ahead.
Chu Yan then simply put away the spirit boat and flew forward in the sky.
For monks who have just been promoted to the heavenly state of mind, because flying in the air consumes a lot of spiritual energy, even if they can fly by themselves, under normal circumstances, they will still rely on the power of flying magic weapons.
But the aura in Chu Yan's body was powerful and endless, so there was no such problem at all.
So he flew directly into the air, all the way down, and soon after, he saw traces of the battle of the army on the ground.
The traces of dozens or hundreds of people fighting could probably be wiped away by a heavy rain.
However, the battlefield where hundreds of thousands or even millions of troops fought day and night for several days may have existed for hundreds of years, and the tragic atmosphere at that time can be felt.
What Chu Yan saw at this moment was a battlefield ruins that could still be felt full of the smell of iron and blood.
Because of the extreme climate here, the corpses on the battlefield have now turned into mud.
But the swords, axes, armor, chariots and flagpoles can still be clearly seen.
There was a thick layer spread on the ground and it stretched out. I don’t know how many there were.
When people stand on it and listen to the whining wind, they can't help but feel fear and depression in their hearts, fearing that the next moment a resentful soul will come out to demand their lives.
But Chu Yan didn't have such worries. Not only that, the scene here at this moment also helped Chu Yan verify something.
That's where he is now. It's the battlefield where Kong Xian told him that many years ago he led his army to defeat the underground demons and established a winning battle.
Less than a hundred miles further west from here is the entrance where Kong Xian entered the underground fissure.
Chu Yan then flew forward.
The cracks in the underground were getting closer and closer. When he came closer, Chu Yan could feel the biting darkness and cold spewing out from the cracks.
It was clearly noon at this time, the sun was shining directly, and the surrounding area was hot enough to melt gold and turn iron.
However, the area several miles around the crack is covered with ice and frost.
This frost seems to have lasted for thousands of years and is as solid as steel.
Here, Chu Yan saw what Kong Xian had specially reminded him of, a huge piece of ice in the shape of a hammer.
The ice is so obvious that it is nearly three stories high and can be seen from a distance.
"This is it." Chu Yan fell to the ground and stepped from the side of the ice into the crack.
Although there is only a thin line between the inside and outside of the crack, they are like two worlds.
No matter how bad the environment outside is, there is still light.
But within the crack, there was darkness.
And the further inside, the darker it becomes, as if it had been painted with thick ink.
The moment Chu Yan walked in, he felt the darkness around him, like a tide, rushing towards him.
The dual physical and psychological pressure makes it difficult to breathe. At this moment, the soul seems to be squeezed into pieces of paper and turned into a wandering soul in the universe with no return date.
At this moment, Chu Yan felt for himself what Kong Xian had described before, what it felt like for a normal person to turn into a madman or idiot in an instant.
However, he was determined. Not to mention this mere darkness, even in a more desperate environment, he stayed in it peacefully for a year.
"Compared with the Demonic Prison of the Abyss, your place is far behind." Chu Yan snorted coldly, lifted his feet one foot off the ground, and flew towards the depths of the crack.
The light outside the crack became farther and farther away from him.
It was a patch at first, and then it turned into a thin line. When Chu Yan went deeper, the last light, as thin as a hair, completely disappeared.
But Chu Yan didn't stop at all.
In fact, the current darkness has not had the slightest impact on his vision.
Ordinary people can't see anything, but for him, it's not much different from usual.
As he continued to go deeper, Chu Yan discovered that the environment in this crack had also changed.
In the beginning, it was a smooth road.
The surrounding ground is also smooth and neat.
As it goes deeper, the ground begins to change, undulating like stacked waves.
Further inside, stalagmites began to appear.
Then, the stone forest appeared.
The stones that form the stone forest are grotesque, with different shapes, and look twisted and twisted. It makes people feel full of imagination, but also full of a ferocious smell. It makes people look and feel scary, and they can't help but look at it more.
Two eyes.
At this time, Chu Yan also began to find some ores that rarely appeared on the ground around him.
