"It's a good place." Zhao Xuan murmured as he looked at the castle of Canghui Academy.
Since all the colleges on the mainland have holidays at the same time, there are not many people in Canghui College at the moment, and the huge Canghui College seems a bit lonely.
In the distant horizon, a corner of the continuous snow-capped mountains can be vaguely seen. The white snow is lightly accumulated on the top of the mountain, but it looks so pleasing to the eye.
The mountain breeze is bleak, the cold pine trees are swaying gently, and the small lake next to the castle is dark in color, reflecting the shadows of the swaying cold pine trees and the white clouds floating in the blue sky. All this looks like a scene described in a fairy tale.
Zhao Xuan took a deep breath and his eyes flashed: "Let's start!"
The divine consciousness that originally maintained a range of 10,000 meters suddenly strengthened its detection, and the area of 10,000 meters was under Zhao Xuan's control. Within this range, Zhao Xuan felt like a god, and no slightest movement could escape his sensing.
The howling of the wind, the low hum of insects and ants, the rippling of water waves, the pulsation of the earth...
Nothing could escape his induction, but as the scope of his spiritual consciousness expanded wider and wider, Zhao Xuan's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
"Nothing strange? Could it be that my guess is wrong?"
Zhao Xuan took a deep look at the ancient castle in front of him, feeling a little reluctant.
Although I don’t have many expectations in my heart, if even a glimmer of hope fails, it will bring a sense of loss to people.
"Huh?"
Zhao Xuan suddenly let out a startled cry, and then quickly closed his eyes, silently sensing with his spiritual consciousness. In a very deep depth under the Canghui Castle, Zhao Xuan felt an unusual aura.
Since the complexity of the underground environment is not less than that on the ground, and is even many times more complex, the spiritual consciousness often consumed to explore the underground is more than ten times more than usual.
A hundred meters underground in Canghui Castle, something buried deep in the ground caught his attention.
It was a vast sea of bones formed by withered bones. Layers of bones fell wantonly deep underground in Canghui Castle, covering an area many times larger than Canghui Academy itself.
An endless sea of human bones is hidden deep under the soles of the feet. The infinite number is like a star, which makes people feel numb. Zhao Xuan can't help but take a slight breath of air.
I don't know how long these bones have been buried deep. According to Zhao Xuan's induction, many of them have been turned into powder. It is just the accumulation of layers of soil on the ground that keeps them in their original appearance. This is very surprising.
I can't help but wonder what could have created such a formidable scene.
While his heart was solemn, Zhao Xuan did not hesitate to use his spiritual sense to carefully explore this strange place deep underground. He was slightly excited because the weirder the place, the more likely it is that the black energy is hiding.
But what makes Zhao Xuan a little disappointed is that there is nothing strange in this "mass grave". Except for some insects and ants that can survive hundreds of meters underground, it is like a quiet underworld, without any traces.
angry.
Zhao Xuan did not believe in evil and repeatedly probed several times, but the final result still greatly disappointed him.
Zhao Xuan sighed and gave up exploring the underground, but then he looked at the forest surrounding Canghui College. He had only explored a small part of the surrounding forest, and there might be gains in other places.
must.
The source of the strange black energy on Youhuan's body is difficult to figure out, but the direction in which the black energy escapes is the direction of Canghui College. This makes it difficult for Zhao Xuan not to focus on the surroundings of Canghui Academy.
Because only the weird black energy is hidden around Canghui Academy, You Huan, who has been staying at Canghui Academy all year round, can come into contact with that black energy, and only after the black energy escapes can it escape in the direction of Canghui Academy.
With Canghui College as the center, Zhao Xuan explored a radius of hundreds of kilometers, but found nothing. This made Zhao Xuan feel disappointed. Could it be that his guess was wrong?
Standing on the snow-capped mountains, all his consciousness was absorbed. Zhao Xuan looked at the Canghui Castle standing in the dark green forest from a distance. It was like a dazzling pearl, looking extremely conspicuous.
Zhao Xuan pursed his lips and looked at it for a long time. The sharp cold wind blew on his face, unable to make him waver in the slightest. Just when he was about to go home, a strange voice suddenly came from his ears.
.
"Huh? Young man, what are you doing here?"
An old man in a thick cotton robe was carrying a small backpack and looked at Zhao Xuan standing proudly on the top of the mountain with a very surprised expression.
Zhao Xuan looked back. The old man's face was red and he was shaking a little in the sharp cold wind. There were some transparent pure white snow lotus and some green herbs in the basket behind him. It was obvious that he was a herb collector.
.
According to the information fed back by his spiritual consciousness, the old man's cultivation level was not high and he was only a ten-level soul master.
The old man's expression suddenly changed. Looking at the thinly dressed Zhao Xuan, his expression suddenly became much more respectful.
Zhao Xuan didn't think much and replied with a chuckle: "Just take a look at Canghui Academy below."
The old man's expression relaxed slightly, and then he looked back in the direction where Zhao Xuan was looking. He murmured: "Cang Hui, it's just the glory of white bones."
"Huh? What did you say, old man?" Zhao Xuan's heart moved and he looked curious. It seemed that the old man knew about the bones under Canghui College?
The old man quickly turned back and said with a smile: "It's just a legend. It seems that I don't seem to be from here, so I'll tell him about it."
"There is a legend that has been circulating here, talking about a great war that took place here a long, long time ago. It was still the era of ignorance, and the continent was in chaos. One country destroyed another country. In order to celebrate its own achievements and expressions
Out of respect for the gods, they killed tens of thousands of enemy soldiers here to pay tribute to the gods!"
"It was rumored that the king of that country received the blessing of the gods, and his strength skyrocketed. He was also famous in the chaotic continent at that time. Unfortunately, he died suddenly and inexplicably in a subsequent battle. A black gas swept the battlefield, and all the soldiers of the two countries were killed.
Strange death.”
"This was the place where enemy soldiers were killed at that time. It is said that the bones were covered with white bones and piled up into mountains. Under the sun, the bones exuded a pale light, so this area was named Canghui Forest."
The old man said with some emotion, and Zhao Xuan's eyes became brighter and brighter.
Black gas? It seems that the direction he is tracking is good, but one thing that makes Zhao Xuan more confused is that the black gas could harvest the lives of a battlefield, but now it feels weaker?
However, this unexpected harvest filled Zhao Xuan's heart with joy. He thanked the old man: "Thank you very much, old man, for explaining it."
The old man smiled and shook his head: "It's nothing. You can find any resident around here who will know it."
Zhao Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but secretly curse himself for being stupid. Since this is weird, there is a high possibility that it will form a legend in this place. After all, the more unknown and mysterious it is, the more likable it is.
