When Chen Shen put a strand of hair that Zi Linglong left for her on the "original position" in the middle of the compass -
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."
Suddenly, the eight convex buttons around the star shadow compass that symbolized each extreme phase burst out with spiritual light rays of different colors, intersecting with the "initial phase" in the middle. Ninety-six
After completing the "nine stars to determine the nine positions", the sunken surface of the compass activated the effect of "yin and yang divided into two radiances".
At this time, Bing Yuyao, who was standing beside her, couldn't help but her eyes dimmed, and she was confused: "I don't know how long this strand of black hair has been left there, but when I sniffed it, I could still smell the faint fragrance. I thought
It must be some woman’s broken hairspring.”
"Looking at the young master's nervous but also extremely hopeful expression, this woman must be extremely important to him!"
"Could it be...his first wife?"
Unknowingly, Bing Yuyao bit her lip gently, feeling an indescribable feeling in her heart.
At this time, Chen Shen didn't notice the strange behavior of the beauty beside him. His eyes were fixed on the compass that was filled with aura and rising and falling slightly.
“Buzz…shua~~”
After a moment, the beams of the Star Shadow Compass suddenly condensed into a ball of light in the air, about the size of a bowling ball.
In the light ball, a looming city emerged.
The city is vast, and most of the buildings in the city are grand and domineering. Most of the walls and roads have a dark and shiny metallic feel.
The streets are crowded with pedestrians.
From time to time, you can still see some potholes on the road or broken building walls. It seems that they should be the traces left by the practitioners fighting...
The ball of light was like a shooting lens, allowing Chen Shen behind the lens to follow it and browse a lot of scenery in the city.
But at this moment, Chen Shen was confused: "Why haven't I found the person I'm looking for yet?"
"Besides, where is this place?"
At this time, Yu Xun, who also focused his attention on this place, said softly: "If I guessed correctly, this city, pavilion, and road where the road is all black and metallic, should be the legendary dark area!"
Chen Shen's eyes lit up: "Dark Realm?"
"Could it be a realm that wanders in the 'turbulence of time and space'?"
Although he was talking to Yu Xun at the moment, his eyes never left the scene of the light ball.
It seemed that he was afraid that if he lost his mind for a moment, he would miss Zi Linglong's figure.
"The realm in the turbulent flow of time and space?"
Yu Xun's eyes were full of doubts, and she repeated what Chen Shen said, fearing that she had heard wrongly.
In her opinion, it is impossible for any cultivator with a little knowledge to think that there is a fixed boundary in the turbulence of time and space, right?
Of course she didn't know that the reason why Chen Shen thought so was because after Zi Linglong tore up the beast bag space on her own, she was directly involved in the turbulence of time and space.
Therefore, when the city discovered that the "Star Shadow Compass" had traced the area through a strand of Zi Ling's hair, it subconsciously believed that this place was also within the turbulence of time and space.
If not, how could Zi Linglong appear here?
After all, based on his understanding of Zi Linglong, the latter's cultivation is far from enough to tear apart space on his own and escape the turbulence of time and space...
But Yu Xun shook her head lightly: "No."
"More than 80,000 years ago, I once went to the Dark Realm with the previous headmaster of the Ice Palace, the Great Sage Yinxue, who was also my mentor..."
Chen Shen was not at all surprised when he heard this iceberg beauty mention the time span of "more than 80,000 years".
Because, as he has now reached the level of two-star Xuansheng, he knows how terrifying this level is to the cultivator's limit of longevity——
The lifespan of a Xuansheng realm can increase by as little as a million years or as much as tens of millions of years!
And this is only the increase in longevity for human cultivators.
If it were replaced by a mysterious beast whose lifespan is generally much longer than that of human cultivators, the growth rate of the life span of the "holy level" has reached a jaw-dropping level: millions of years, or even tens of millions of years, not to mention
Down!
Therefore, when Yu Xun talks about the past eighty thousand years ago, to Chen Shen, a cultivator who is equivalent to the Xuansheng realm, it is just as casual as the humans on earth talking about the past three to five years ago.
"The Dark Realm... can be said to be the most chaotic area among all the worlds."
"Because its territory is right at the hub where the five realms of immortality, demon world, demon world, spiritual world, and Buddhist world meet."
"Although the five major realms often have conflicts and wars with each other, resource exchange is also common."
"As a hub area, the 'Dark Realm' has naturally become the connecting channel with the lowest 'transportation cost', opening up trade routes to the five major realms."
Hearing this, Chen Shen couldn't help but interrupt: "Since it is the trade hub of the five major realms, shouldn't it be better protected?"
"Normally speaking, this should be the case, but the reality is not."
Yu Xun patiently explained: "If it is a large caravan from the five realms, ordinary realm sects, or casual cultivators, they really do not dare to make the slightest intrusion on them."
"The five major realms have also reached a delicate balance and axiom among each other, and they often do not kill each other rashly."
"However, this 'peace phenomenon' only targets cultivators in the five realms who act in groups."
"If there are those who are left alone, they are no different from the ordinary casual cultivators in the dark realm and the cultivators from ordinary sects."
"If you don't have overwhelming cultivation, and no matter how bad your luck is, there is a high chance that the people in the five realms who are left alone will be swallowed up by the demons and monsters in the 'dark realm', and not even the bones and dregs will be left!"
As she spoke, Yu Xun remembered what she saw and heard when she followed her mentor and arrived in the Dark Territory. The pretty face that could confuse all living beings had a particularly solemn expression——
"The delicate balance between the five realms is very fragile. Therefore, even though each party has the ambition to take the 'Dark Realm' as its own, when it comes to implementation, no one dares to take the lead."
"Because they all know very well that once they have the intention to conquer the 'Dark Realm' and monopolize the trade route hub, they will definitely become a thorn in the eyes and flesh of the other four realms!"
"Once the other four realms join forces to suppress it, the fifth realm's defeat and demise are almost foreseeable..."
"So, none of the five major realms know how to do it, and they dare not extend their hands into all aspects of the 'dark realm', so as not to arouse the sensitive nerves of the other major realms."
"The connecting hub of the five major realms, frequent trade exchanges, and no one party can possess, or dare to use overwhelming means of governance..."
"Over time, the Dark Territory has developed into an extremely prosperous and lawless place!"
