Fang Ping stared at the stone tablet with solemn eyes and said slowly, word by word: "Xuande Cave!"
"Do you know the words?"
Li Hansong suddenly said something, and Fang Ping's face turned dark and he stared at him fiercely.
What's your situation?
Qin Fengqing is not here, you have taken his place?
Li Hansong hesitated, but still said helplessly: "There are only three characters, how can you pronounce four characters?"
On the huge stone tablet, there are only three words "ok".
Fang Ping said calmly: "Xuande Cave, I'll add the word '天' to make it more palatable."
On the side, Wang Jinyang glanced at him and said helplessly: "This is the Xuande realm, not the 'Xuande cave'. Can you learn more Braille next time?"
Fang Ping's face turned even darker.
After a long while, he said dullly: "I didn't look carefully. Wasn't it the 'Mausoleum Cave' last time? I saw the first two, but didn't look at the back."
Wang Jinyang ignored him. After deducing that the realm and the sect might be related last time, he went to great lengths to revise the seal script.
After taking a look at the stone tablet, Wang Jinyang said: "It is indeed the Xuande Cave. The so-called Dongtian Blessed Land is only a term used after the Tang Dynasty. There may not have been a Cave Heaven Blessed Land before, but it was just named by later generations.
The Xuande Realm should be the Xuande Cave Heaven listed in the Tang Dynasty."
As he said this, Wang Jinyang stopped looking at the stone monument, but looked behind the stone monument at the winding and rugged ancient road that seemed to reach the sky.
Behind the stone monument is a large mountain.
The mountain road is rugged, and the underground is paved with crystal energy crystals.
The crystal-like plank road goes upward for countless kilometers.
To a warrior, a height of several thousand meters is nothing, but at this moment, the ancient road is circling, looming, and no one knows where the end is.
"We've come to the right place."
Wang Jinyang said, and frowned slightly: "There should be restrictions on the sky here. Last time in Tiannan, there was a space crack in the sky. But now, this plank road leads straight to the sky..."
Fang Ping also looked up, thought for a moment and said, "Since this is the mountain path leading into the cave, there should be no restrictions on the mountain path. Otherwise, this mountain path would have disappeared long ago and been swallowed up by the cracks in space."
Li Hansong answered: "The gate in Tiannan is very low, but this side is so high... Fang Ping, this isn't your home, is it? If you build a training ground, it should be turned into a crystal tower..."
Fang Ping said seriously: "Shut up from now on! Tietou, I find that you have changed and you have learned to talk nonsense!"
This guy took such a long time and actually stabbed him twice. He was trying to rebel!
These two guys were making a noise, but the other two people ignored them.
Yao Chengjun looked around, and after a long while, he said in a solemn voice: "Everyone be quiet! Someone has been here!"
With that said, Yao Chengjun walked behind the stone monument, squatted down, and checked on the crystal-like plank road.
This place has been covered in dust for who knows how many years.
The crystal plank road is a little dim, with a layer of fine dust falling on it.
Yao Chengjun touched his hand, looked upward, and said slowly: "There may be someone up there! Someone has gone up here, and there are also footprints coming down..."
As he said that, he looked at both sides of the plank road again, took a deep breath and said: "This ancient road is a bit dangerous, be careful! I looked up and down, and the footprints didn't seem to match. Maybe someone died.
Either the ancient road is dangerous, or there is danger up there!”
Although warriors can control the air, this place is extremely dangerous, and cracks appear in the air at every turn.
Here, it's safer to keep your feet on the ground.
Although some of the footprints on the plank road were very shallow, Yao Chengjun could still see them clearly.
Fang Ping said, "Lao Zhang said someone from the Chen family might be here. Is it someone from the Chen family?"
"I don't know. We can't take it lightly. We can't rule out that it's a warrior from the cave."
Fang Ping nodded, he would not be careless, and glanced upward again, Fang Ping said softly: "I didn't expect that the portal here was opened in the sky.
That was more dangerous than I expected!
I don’t know if there is one above the Forbidden Realm. I used to think that I could continuously attack the Forbidden Realm underground, but now it’s hard to tell.
Since there is someone up there, no matter it is the Chen family or whose family it is, everyone should cheer up!"
After Fang Ping said that, he added again: "Everyone, we are here together, the only one we can trust is ourselves! Old Ancestor Chen released his pressure on Yuhai Mountain to cover our whereabouts, but the Chen family may not know our whereabouts.
exist.
If it's the Chen family above, beware of them taking action against us!
If it is a cave warrior... there may be a ninth-grade one!"
Fang Ping said with a serious face: "Once there is a ninth grade, it will be troublesome! There seems to be only one road here. If we don't go this way, we may not be able to find other entrances!"
"clear!"
These people were extremely serious. Unlike the last time they wandered around casually, the last time they went to the Boundary Land was just to find Zhang Qingnan. Fang Ping and the others had no purpose.
But this time, we came specifically to find the exercises, and we didn't want to return without success.
"Come on!"
Fang Ping said something and looked at the stone tablet again. He glanced at it and didn't look at it any more.
There is still business at this time. This stone tablet should also be connected with the ban. Getting the stone tablet at this time may cause big trouble.
Several people carefully stepped onto the plank road. Li Hansong was still in front and did not dare to be careless. Li Hansong cautiously tried to walk up the steps step by step.
I tried it by stepping on the ground and floating slightly in the air.
Fang Ping and others all looked nervous. Fortunately, the floating problem was not too big.
Fang Ping thought for a while and threw another stone into the air.
As soon as the stone took off, it disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye, and cracks appeared in the sky.
Fang Ping solemnly said: "30 meters!"
After finishing his words, he looked at Li Hansong and said: "Go up a little, about 20 meters, and try throwing stones!"
Li Hansong nodded, quickly walked up the plank road for about 20 meters, and threw a stone.
This time the pebbles did not disappear 10 meters in the air, but were still about 30 meters in the air.
Fang Ping breathed a sigh of relief and said with emotion: "What a wonderful work! The restrictions are not flat, but are arranged diagonally upward along the plank road."
Everyone nodded slightly. At this time, Li Hansong threw a few more stones at both sides of the plank road, and soon said with a solemn expression: "Fang Ping, be careful! When you leave the plank road, there are void cracks on both sides!"
When he threw the stones, they disappeared into the cracks as soon as they came out of the plank road.
In other words, on this winding ancient road, only the steps of the ancient road and 30 meters above are safe areas, and other places are dangerous areas.
"The ancient warrior is so domineering!"
Fang Ping sighed, he was overbearing.
There is only one road on this side of Xuande Cave, and visitors must take this road.
And it can't control the air or run around.
The master here tells you to take the right path, so you have to take the right path, stay in the air, and run around, because you are seeking death.
Unlike modern times, warriors don't actually have much sense of territory.
Even in the Ministry of Education, if someone really flashed in the air above Lao Zhang's head, Lao Zhang wouldn't care too much if it was one of his own.
Of course, there are still air bans.
But for high-level warriors, few actually obey the air ban. Sometimes flying is indeed more convenient.
The group of people were talking as they walked up. After walking for a while, Fang Ping suddenly said again: "Tietou, I want to do an experiment. You can tell me if it's feasible."
"Want to borrow my armor?"
Li Hansong grinned and didn't say much. The armor on his body disappeared instantly and appeared in his hand. He threw it to Fang Ping and said, "You want to test whether the space crack can cut my armor, right?"
"good."
Fang Ping's eyes flickered and said: "If you can resist it, Tietou, lend me this thing. At the critical moment, I will drag the ninth grade with me to control the air! The crack is purely physical damage and cannot cut the armor, so I will be fine...
…”
Wang Jinyang frowned and said: "What do you know! I saw the crack last time, and it also cut through the mental power when it exploded..."
"I'll be fine if I don't release my mental power."
Fang Ping didn't say much. He picked up this set of humanoid armor and tried it on the left side of the ancient road. While testing it, he said, "If it's really going to break, I'll get a better one for you later!"
The cracks can't even cut through the Juedian body, and the Juedian body's strength is only that much. If this thing doesn't work well with the Juedian body, it's not a very good thing."
Several people were speechless. Are you sincere in saying this?
The tone is really unusual!
When the top of the body is cut by a space crack, the energy and blood must be vigorous to protect the body from serious damage, and that's when there are few cracks.
This means that it is not just physical strength that resists.
If a set of armor can block cracks, it will be much stronger than the inner armor of the Ultimate Realm.
Fang Ping said, and just as he was about to test it, he suddenly threw the armor to Li Hansong.
Li Hansong said unexpectedly: "What's wrong? It's really going to be cut into pieces, but it's nothing."
"Forgot, this armor seems to be related to you. If it is really cut into pieces, you will probably be severely injured."
Fang Ping almost forgot about this incident, but he believed that Li Hansong would not forget it.
But this guy actually asked him to try it just now. Fang Ping had no choice but to glance at him and said: "I forgot, you just let me cut it? Are you an idiot?"
Li Hansong smiled naively and didn't say anything.
Just when Fang Ping gave up, Li Hansong took the armor himself and stretched out the plank road.
"Crunch..."
A sharp piercing sound came out, and Li Hansong hurriedly pulled back his armor, his face turned slightly pale.
"sharp!"
Li Hansong was still frightened as he watched a slight crack appear on the armor. Soon, the crack began to heal.
"It can be resisted, but I have to expend my strength to repair it! It only takes a moment, and I am not strong enough. Repairing the divine armor will consume a lot of money."
As he said that, Li Hansong said with an excited face: "But if I really drag a ninth-grade man into the crack, I might cut him to death first, or chop my armor into pieces first!
If you put it this way... I also have a trump card against the ninth grade in the realm!"
Li Hansong was very excited. He didn't want to be a real shield, so he had to use some offensive means.
That’s good now!
At the critical moment, if he can drag a ninth-grade man up into the air and use the space cracks, he may not be able to kill the ninth-grade man.
Li Hansong was excited, but Fang Ping didn't hit him, let alone dissuade him, but he warned: "I let you do it, you do it again! I don't let you do it, so don't make your own decisions!
In the land of boundaries, you only need one voice, and that is my voice!
This is also the consensus of many times in the catacombs!
If you act without my permission, don't think you are doing good things. Many times you are doing bad things with good intentions!
Three of you, the ugly talk is ahead. You acted without permission. If you don’t die this time, we will part ways from now on!"
The smiles disappeared from several people's faces and they all nodded quickly.
They all understood what Fang Ping meant.
In the caves, if you act together, you really can't make your own decisions, as it will often involve the entire team.
"Let's go up, Iron Tou will explore the way!"
The few people stopped talking and started walking towards the top of the ancient road with only faint movement.
…
Just when Fang Ping and the others were walking up the ancient road.
At the end of the ancient road, there is a huge platform.
At this moment, several figures were sitting cross-legged on the ground.
In front of the figure is an extremely tall gate tower.
The gate tower is looming, surrounded by huge crystal walls.
When Li Hansong's armor was cut, there was a "crunching" sound. Among the several figures, one person's ears moved slightly, and soon he opened his eyes and said, "It seems like someone is coming up!"
"People from King Maple?"
In the crowd, someone spoke with an old voice and an old face. However, he quickly looked at the person who had spoken before and asked again: "Second Ancestor, did they arrive early this time?"
The man who spoke before was old, with white beard and hair. He stood up slowly and said with deep eyes, "Maybe, get ready to fight!"
After the words fell, five people stood up on the platform.
Including the old man, there are 6 people in total.
These six people are all old and pale.
They have been staying here for many years.
There is no way to restore energy and consumption here. We can only have one or two of them cross the forbidden sea to recover every now and then.
But the Forbidden Sea is also extremely dangerous. Time and time again, some people have fallen victim to the Forbidden Sea.
But they couldn't leave.
Although the boundary wall sometimes explodes with an energy tide due to energy saturation, when the energy tide breaks out, it is often accompanied by battles.
After so many years, there were only six of them left out of the dozen or so people in the past.
The six people all looked solemn, and the magic weapons appeared in their hands, but the magic weapons looked a little dull.
Not only the divine weapons, but also the two eighth-level powerhouses, their golden bodies looked extremely dim.
The old man in the lead was also in the same situation, with an air of twilight all over him.
Several people guarded the intersection of the ancient road leading to the platform without saying a word.
Not long after, an armored warrior wearing full body armor appeared on the winding ancient road.
"Human?"
The old men did not take action or speak, but waited.
As a result, the armored warrior took the initiative to speak, and then loudly said: "Is that the senior Chen family of Zhenxing City above?"
The leading old man looked slightly suspicious and did not dare to relax. He said in a deep voice: "Who is coming?"
"Oh, I forgot..."
Before Li Hansong finished speaking, the expressions of several old men changed. They had sensed the power of human blood.
A seventh-level warrior!
However, it seemed that they had just sensed it, and a few people became slightly suspicious for a while.
Of course, the plank road is winding and there are many restrictions here. I didn't notice it before, maybe it was blocked by the restrictions.
Soon, behind the armored warriors, they saw three more figures.
They are all seventh-level warriors!
Although the four seventh-level players are weaker than the six of them, they should not be underestimated.
"Are you a senior of the Chen family?"
At this moment, Li Hansong didn't speak again, and Fang Ping took the initiative and said: "We are Chinese warriors, from the Wuhan University. Under the order of Minister Zhang, we came to Xuande Cave to explore the ruins and find ancient human martial arts to practice!"
"King Wu's order?"
"good!"
Fang Ping said loudly: "The seniors haven't told me yet, are they the seniors of the Chen family? So as not to cause conflicts and affect the overall situation."
Several old men looked at each other, and the leading old man said: "We are the Chen family!"
After he finished speaking, he asked: "You said you came here under orders, do you have proof?"
Although they are all human beings, human beings... may not be without traitors.
"certificate?"
Fang Ping thought for a while and found that he did have the certificate, and Zhang Tao's crystal book was the most suitable.
However, before Lao Zhang came, why didn't he say anything about giving himself a token?
Now that the crystal book is out, if you fall out and start having sex later, people will know about your trump card.
Who knows whether these people are good or bad!
Those old men above are not weak in strength, two are ninth grade, two are eighth grade, and two are seventh grade.
Although I feel a little weak, no matter how weak I am, the ninth grade is the ninth grade.
Fang Ping didn't expect to meet two ninth-level powerhouses here!
If it were the Chen family, then the Chen family would be terrifying enough.
One is the top, three are ninth-level, and there is also a ninth-level Chen family’s head over there in the guard mansion.
But these people... why didn't they go out?
The ancestors of the Chen family started the new era of martial arts. According to the words of the King of War, the ancestors of the Chen family have given up exploring the realm and will no longer follow that path.
In the land of kings, no one from the Chen family can be seen, except when new people enter every three years.
After thinking about it, Fang Ping didn't ask in detail, and he couldn't ask anything at this time.
You need a certificate, right? He really doesn't have one. In fact, Fang Ping also has a certificate. He has the seal of Vice Principal Mowu, which can prove his identity.
However, Fang Ping is so famous that he is still wanted in the restricted area.
Don't publicize it too much if it's not necessary.
From what these people said, they probably haven't been out for a long time, so they probably don't know them.
After thinking for a while, Fang Ping looked at Lao Wang and the others and said, "Do you have a seal or something?"
Several people nodded slightly.
Fang Ping opened his mouth and said to the people above: "Can the seal of the principal of Wuhan University be used to prove my identity? Among us, there are the dean of Mowu, the honorary principal of Nanwu, and the vice-principal of the First Military Academy..."
After hearing these names, several people above were stunned for a moment.
But soon, the old man above said: "Okay!"
Even if there are traitors in human beings, if all the leaders of several Wuhan universities have become traitors, then Wuhan University will be completely ruined, and King Wu will not be so useless.
However, the elderly people, listening to the voices of the people below, felt that they were not very old.
They are also very strange, a new grandmaster?
When Fang Ping threw a few seals, the leading old man looked at them and suddenly said: "How is Mr. Wu Wang doing lately? Back then, Mr. Wu King broke through to the top, shocking the world and weeping ghosts and gods..."
Fang Ping's mouth twitched. Is this necessary?
If I hadn't happened to hear some secrets, I wouldn't have been tricked by you.
Fang Ping said helplessly: "It's amazing, I broke through as soon as I woke up..."
"Hahaha, he is really a member of King Wu!"
The old man laughed!
That’s right!
This is a big secret that most people really don’t know.
Even on the other side of the cave, I don’t know how King Wu broke through.
There is a high probability that he has broken through to the ultimate level while in seclusion.
There are only a few top human beings who really know the inside story.
The Chen family knows this because the ancestor of the Chen family knows it. Anyone who knows this is definitely a high-level person among humans, and a trustworthy high-level person.
No more running!
This was King Wu's shame. Anyone who knew the secret was not one of his own, and they were all killed. Of course, no one was actually killed, because those who knew it were all his own.
After confirming the identities of Fang Ping and the others, several old men stopped looking at them with eager eyes. The leading old man smiled and said: "Since we are King Wu's people, let's come up."
They no longer blocked the road, and Fang Ping and others also walked up cautiously. Li Hansong took the lead and quickly reached the entrance of the plank road. He deliberately squeezed forward and pushed several elderly people behind.
The leading old man chuckled lightly, and without saying much, took the initiative to step back.
I admired it in my heart, it was pretty good, a few people looked quite young and quite vigilant.
They were guarding the entrance of the plank road. Once they took action and knocked several people out of the scope of the plank road, they would be dead.
In the cave, just as Lu Fengrou taught Fang Ping, don't trust anyone easily here, even your own people.
Li Hansong occupied the entrance to the plank road, and Fang Ping and others followed.
As soon as he reached the intersection, Fang Ping cast his eyes towards the looming gatehouse.
Seeing Fang Ping looking towards the gate tower, the old man smiled and said: "This is the main entrance to Xuande Cave, and it is also the only portal. If you want to enter Xuande Cave, you can only go here, other places are dead ends.
You guys are here on orders this time, does King Wu have anything to say?"
On the side, an old woman said in a weak voice: "Can you guys tell us about the outside world?"
Fang Ping asked curiously: "Have your seniors not been out for a long time?"
"Yes, I haven't been out of this place for 15 years."
A few people felt a little emotional. After staying here for 15 years, they almost never left. Except for some demon clans and people coming from time to time under the command of King Feng, there was almost nothing here except those mountains and rivers that they were tired of seeing.
Staying within the bounds for 15 years is not something that can be represented by a simple number.
Fang Ping was a little confused, staying here for 15 years?
Xuande Cave is not open yet, so it is not suitable for retreat here. Even if the energy tide breaks out, just wait until it breaks out. Do you need to stay here every day?
Seeing Fang Ping's confusion, the leading old man sighed softly: "15 years ago, we didn't stay here day and night. At that time, we had already entered the garrison.
But 15 years ago, someone under King Maple's command got a token of the Realm at the King's Battle Ground.
Over the years, people have often been sent here to enter Xuande Cave.
We were ordered to guard the portal and not allow the strong men under King Maple to open the realm, so we couldn't leave.
Once he leaves and misses the people under King Maple, it will be troublesome.
And we can’t change people easily. The realm is extremely dangerous. Changing the guard once is a huge crisis, so we can only wait here..."
Fang Ping quickly said: "Someone under King Feng has obtained the token of the realm? Is it from Xuande Cave Heaven?"
"It should be."
The old man said: "If not, King Maple will not keep sending people here. There is some information about the restricted area that is more than what we know. We are not sure. He will not keep sending people to die.
It was precisely because my father knew about this that he asked me to come and guard him..."
"Father?"
Fang Ping swallowed. He couldn't be the son of the ancestor of the Chen family, right?
At the beginning, he asked if any of the second generations of each family survived.
Jiang Hao said it might be possible, but what does he mean now...that he has encountered it now?
Some of the second generation in Zhenxing City are over 300 years old!
Saw a living antique!
As if he understood what Fang Ping meant, the second ancestor of the Chen family smiled and said: "It's rare to meet people outside the restricted area. Before anyone comes to the restricted area, if there is anything you need help with, please let me know.
come out.
Leave as soon as possible before they come. If you have a chance, bring a message back to the townhouse for us. We are still alive.
My father asked Xiao Jiu to contact us before... Unfortunately, Xiao Jiu died in the battle not long after he arrived. I'm afraid my father is also worried about the situation here."
Fang Ping understood what he meant. Obviously, Old Ancestor Chen might not be able to detect the situation here in Yuhai Mountain.
And Old Ancestor Chen probably can’t come to the outer realm to conduct close-range detection.
I sent someone to check, but the person I sent died.
I'm afraid I don't even know if there are anyone alive here now.
As for the last time Li Zhen and Zhang Tao went to Tiannan for detection... Fang Ping suspected that these two might have done the detection at Yuhaishan.
However, Fang Ping still said strangely: "You guys let one person cross the Forbidden Sea, wouldn't Chen Zhenshou be able to detect it..."
The old man laughed and said: "Jue Dian will not always cover the outside world with his mental power, and it will consume a lot of energy, unless it is necessary.
Father doesn't know when we will go out, so naturally he won't cover this place all the time.
What's more, it's a bit difficult for my father to cover this area..."
Fang Ping didn't say anything, but he made some calculations in his mind. It seems that Old Ancestor Chen is really not as powerful as Old Zhang!
Lao Zhang's mental power covers this and that every day. He likes to use his mental power when eavesdropping, and he doesn't care about the consumption.
Could eavesdropping be used to exercise mental strength?
It seems so!
The true kings who were in the forbidden area on the other side of the Demon City and on the Tiannan side only took a moment to cover them.
But Lao Zhang... seems to have been watching.
So does the War King!
No, the King of War seemed to have retreated midway, but Lao Zhang was really always there, monitoring the entire Outland at any time.
Moreover, the Demon City Caves are much larger than the Xishan Caves!
"Lao Zhang is amazing!"
Fang Ping sighed in his heart, how old is Lao Zhang?
He didn't ask, but he seemed to have heard Fatty Jiang say before, 85 years old?
It seems that it took less than 20 years to reach the pinnacle of achievement.
Li Zhen reached his peak at the age of 70. Fang Ping was not sure whether Lao Zhang was earlier than him or later than him.
However, these few people who have not left the realm for 15 years know the secret of Lao Zhang's breakthrough. So...didn't he break through before the age of 70?
"Co-author Lao Zhang made a breakthrough earlier than Commander Li!"
Fang Ping was still thinking, and the old man said again: "The Boundary Land and Yuhai Mountain are not connected either. We have to walk through Endless Mountain to get out and to get in, which is extremely dangerous.
Moreover, it is extremely dangerous to travel through the Forbidden Sea, so communication has been cut off for the past few years..."
Fang Ping understood and immediately said: "Don't worry, we will definitely inform the governor's office when we get out."
With that said, Fang Ping looked at the gate tower again and said: "Senior, we are here this time under orders to open up the realm. Since you are here, it will be much more convenient..."
Before Fang Ping finished speaking, the old man said in surprise: "You...did you also get the token?"
"right."
Once here, these people are still guarding here, and Fang Ping doesn't hide anything, otherwise they can see it when he goes in later.
