Hearing Duan Qingyang's words, Lu Chen and the others immediately pricked up their ears.
Of course they are curious.
How could such an emperor of the Four Directions Realm become like this?
Moreover, Duan Qingyang has been sitting next to the pillar of the main hall, what does it mean?
There is something magical about this pillar.
Duan Qingyang said: "Do you know what is outside the Sifang Continent?"
The three of them shook their heads together.
Duan Qingyang said: "Squeeze out a drop of your essence and blood, apply it on the Nine Dragon Pillar, and then use your mental power to see the entire continent in all directions."
"ah?"
The heron made a startled sound.
You can actually see the entire Sifang Continent.
Just this one pillar?
With doubts, he applied the essence and blood as instructed to detect his spiritual power.
After a moment, his expression was horrified and shocked.
He stepped back a few steps, then sat limply on the ground.
At the same time, Tu Mingdao quickly retreated and leaned against the wall, breathing heavily.
His face was pale, and he looked at the pillar with a look of fear.
Lu Chen was puzzled.
So I also touched the pillar.
Wow!
For a moment, he felt as if his spiritual power had left his body and rushed towards the top of the pillar.
Then it breaks away from the pillar and rises very far into the sky.
The mental power seemed to have become huge, and it actually condensed into a heavenly eye.
Control your own eyes and look around.
You can look down at the four continents and see the eight major domains including southeast, northwest, and southeast.
You can see the mountains and natural chasms between the eight major domains.
You can also see the prosperous and prosperous Zhongzhou territory.
But what's beyond that is the most eye-catching thing.
All I saw outside the Sifang Continent was blue water!
It turns out that Sifang Continent is just a small island.
The sea outside is vast and boundless!
And above the sea, there are countless monsters, armed with various magical weapons, attacking the edges of the four continents.
These monsters are different from what Lu Chen and the others have seen before.
Technically, these are Kraken!
Except for some wing-shaped sea monsters that hover in the air, other sea monsters can wander in the water.
They can emit huge waves and hit the formations of the four continents.
Fortunately, on the edge of the Sifang Continent, there are countless capable people with lofty ideals who are constantly making tricks.
Either use attack methods, or control formations to enhance defense.
Unfortunately, they couldn't hold on for a while before they all vomited blood and were replaced by another group of people.
If there weren't a large number of people, they would be rotated in waves.
I'm afraid that the formation guarding the four continents on the edge will not be able to support it at all.
"this……"
Lu Chen was stunned.
I didn't expect that they were actually living in this dead place!
He suddenly thought of what Cui Yu had said all day long, that he wanted to leave Sifang Continent, so he came to assist him.
However, if Cui Yu saw this scene, would he still think about leaving Sifang Continent?
Even if he wanted to, he couldn't rush out.
There are so many densely packed sea monster armies, not to mention Cui Yu.
Even if it is the strongest person Lu Chen has ever seen, the giant python monster, I'm afraid he won't be able to break out.
You must know what the eyes of the sky can see, those heroes guarding the edge of the Sifang Continent are all strong men at the top of the Sifang Realm.
But they could only cower in the formation.
How could it be possible to break out of the Sifang Continent by oneself?
Wow!
Everything in front of me suddenly changed.
Lu Chen's mental power has returned to his body.
He stared blankly at the pillar in front of him, unable to recover for a long time.
Too scary.
Unexpectedly, their Sifang Continent would suffer such hardship.
With the number of people in the Kraken army, as well as their formidable strength.
It is estimated that Sifang Continent will not be able to hold on for long.
One day, the Sifang Continent will be blasted away.
At that time, all of them were lambs to be slaughtered!
Lu Chen was silent for a long time and said to Duan Qingyang: "Old Sect Master, what is the mystery of this Nine Dragon Pillar?"
Seeing Lu Chen come to his senses so quickly, and even asked a very crucial question.
Duan Qingyang was stunned for a moment, and then said happily: "Sure enough, I saw you right.
You know, when I was here, I almost fainted when I saw that scene for the first time.
Who would have thought that the place we depend on for survival is actually in danger.
As the saying goes, if the skin does not exist, the hair will not be attached.
Faced with such a situation, one can either despair and become an ant, or contribute to the Sifang Continent.
The Nine Dragon Pillars are the key to protecting the four continents.
Do you know why our Yanyue Academy declined?
It is because the location of our Yanyue Academy is one of the nine key locations in Sifang Continent.
Each sect leader will abandon everything and sacrifice it to the Nine Dragon Pillar in order to maintain the formation of the four continents.
Although I, Duan Qingyang, have no ability, I am bound to learn about this matter!
Fortunately, with my broken body, the Sifang Continent has been able to survive for another hundred years.
Unfortunately, I can't hold on much longer.
Next, you have to replace people, sacrifice them here, and maintain the formation.
Lu Chen, you can choose the next sect leader and ask him to sacrifice here.
With your talent, I hope you can go higher and further.
Although the hope is slim, if you can break out of the four continents, I hope you can cross the sea and explore the other side of the sea.
If we human reinforcements can be found, our four continents will still have a chance to survive!
If you can't, in fact, if you can rush out, our Yanyue Academy's inheritance will be considered immortal.
The inheritance of the Five Emperors Sect is immortal.
All of you, the ancestors, will also be pleased."
"Sacrifice..."
Lu Chen was silent when he heard this.
In order to gain opportunities for Sifang Continent, Duan Qingyang actually volunteered to sacrifice here for a hundred years.
And for a hundred years, he sat like this, motionless.
Sacrifice with spiritual power and human body.
In the end, it became what it is today, where people are neither humans nor ghosts.
"Thank you, old sect master, for buying time for us."
Lu Chen suddenly bowed to the ground and solemnly promised: "I will accept this mission. If I can break out of the Sifang Continent, I will definitely bring back reinforcements to save my Sifang Continent!"
Duan Qingyang was startled when he heard this.
In fact, I just mentioned a hope casually, without thinking that it would be possible to realize it.
But the young man in front of him actually recognized his hope.
And he made a solemn promise.
Duan Qingyang suddenly felt that his nose was sore and his blood was rising.
He discovered that his efforts were not just about delaying time.
But it really brings hope!
"Okay, okay, okay!"
Duan Qingyang burst out with three good words and was extremely excited: "Lu Chen, your acquisition of the Five Emperors' techniques is definitely not a coincidence, but a destiny of God!
The Three Holy Lands cannot save our Sifang Continent because their inheritance is not good enough.
Only the inheritance of the Five Emperors Sect has a chance to save the Sifang Continent.
Lu Chen, this is your destiny!
All our people in the Sifang Continent will thank you."
Lu Chen shook his head: "If it weren't for the ancestors who fought for time one after another, how would I, Chen Lu, have a chance to survive?
Everything I have is earned by my ancestors.
We must inherit the legacy of our ancestors!”
"Good boy."
Duan Qingyang was extremely pleased.
He looked at the Heron and the Tuming Dao on the other side and said: "Look at them, they are incomparable to you. They can be used for sacrifice."
Heron and Tu Mingdao's expressions changed greatly.
He actually asked them to sacrifice and become like Duan Qingyang, unable to move for a hundred years, sitting here waiting to die and turning into a broken body.
How is that possible?
They can't do this kind of thing!
And the sacrifice makes no sense at all.
It's just delaying time by using the lifespan of a strong person in the Four Directions Realm.
Knowing that the Sifang Continent is locked up, its resources are limited, and the strong people in the Sifang Realm are getting fewer and fewer each generation.
It is conceivable that within a few hundred years, all the powerful people in the Sifang Realm in the Sifang Continent will die.
Once all the ancestors died as sacrifices, it would be impossible for the Sifang Continent to survive.
So why waste time?
It’s better to take advantage of this time and enjoy yourself in time.
After all, you are going to die, so there is no need to torture yourself.
Heron fell to his knees and said, "Sect Master, old Sect Master, I don't want to sacrifice.
I originally only had a few years to live, but finally I was rewarded by the sect master and had the opportunity to break through the Four Directions Realm.
But as soon as I break through, he sacrifices me and makes me a living dead.
I can't do it.
I beg the two sect masters to spare me and let me enjoy my old age in peace.
Please.”
The heron kowtowed loudly and cried bitterly.
Lu Chen looked at him in shock.
He has always believed that Elder Heron could give everything for Yanyue Academy.
So I have great trust in him.
No matter what the benefits are, I will never forget him and will entrust him with important responsibilities.
But now, Elder Heron has shown such a side.
This sudden contrast made Lu Chen unable to recover for a while.
But after a while, he understood.
In fact, it is normal for ordinary people to have such a reaction when they see that scene of despair.
Elder Heron can give everything for Yanyue Academy because it is worth it.
And he believed that Yanyue Academy could one day regain its former glory.
But now, I'm afraid he won't believe in any glory anymore.
The four continents themselves are nothing more than rootless duckweeds.
Even if Yanyue Academy dominates the Sifang Continent, what's the point?
On a small island, becoming the overlord is like ants electing the ant king.
That's still an ant!
So since there is no hope, why bother becoming a living dead?
Who would be willing to sacrifice?
Lu Chen himself didn't want to sacrifice.
He also wanted to fight out and gain a glimmer of hope.
Sacrifice is just a last resort act to preserve the status quo.
If he could fight, Lu Chen would choose to fight.
But Elder Heron's talent, strength, and age limited him to the point where he couldn't even fight.
Therefore, this old man can only seek a peaceful old age.
He gave everything for Yanyue Academy, and he deserves to be repaid in this way.
So Lu Chen helped Elder Heron up and said: "Elder, I will not force you to sacrifice. Just forget about this matter and pretend you have never been here."
After saying that, he reached out his mental power and released his own mental projection, which landed in Elder Heron's mind.
The heron looked at Lu Chen.
The old man burst into tears, with gratitude but also with shame, and whispered: "Xiao Chen..."
Whoosh!
In Heron's mind, Lu Chen's figure suddenly transformed into a sword.
Then the sword slowly disappeared from the spot.
Heron didn't know why, he just felt sleepy.
But when he wakes up, he will find that if he thinks about the things on the Sect Master's Peak, his mind will hurt.
It was the sting blocked by the sword seal.
As long as he doesn't think about it, it won't hurt.
This is because Chase Lu is worried that he will reveal the situation of Sifang Continent.
If rumors spread, Yanyue Academy may be in chaos.
A life without hope is the most terrifying life.
Desperate people can do anything.
This is why they have lived for so many years without knowing the situation in Sifang Continent.
The top experts at the top have kept this secret in their mouths.
Never allow rumors of despair to arise.
The four continents were already in despair before rumors of despair arose again.
Then this continent can be declared destroyed in advance!
"Tu Ming Dao, what about you?"
Duan Qingyang suddenly looked at Tu Mingdao, the corner of his mouth curled up, revealing a sarcastic smile.
Tu Mingdao's face turned pale.
Of course he didn't want to sacrifice either.
But all his spiritual energy is in Lu Chen's hands, and he has no initiative at all.
If Chase Lu wanted to sacrifice himself, he would have to sacrifice himself.
