Volume 1: Abandoned Land Chapter 98: Strange filth
It is rumored that 30,000 years ago, the demonic creatures broke through the boundary barrier for some reason and descended on the Xiling land. A demonic catastrophe broke out from the sky, and the human and demon tribes were inevitably involved. Under the demonic catastrophe, the human race suffered heavy losses, and the nine immortal sects were destroyed.
Five, the demon clan suffered heavy casualties and their vitality was severely damaged.
After the Demon Tribulation, the entire land of Xiling was riddled with holes and in chaos. The demon creatures left behind countless small demon realms and then gradually receded.
Whether it is the small demon realm at the bottom of Jinyun Peak of Qingling Gate, the small demon realm deep in the Ancient Demon Burial Forest, or the more than thirty small demon realms opened by Prince Zhou Yin on the second day of the dynasty with the help of the dynasty, all of them are 30,000
Although these small demon realms were quickly sealed, a large amount of demonic energy had already poured out, and the entire land of Houzhou seemed to be covered with a thin layer of mist and gray.
, gloomy. If you stay in such an environment for a long time, the whole person will become bloodthirsty and cruel, and even lose your mind.
However, the land of the Later Zhou Dynasty was so vast, and the population of the people was in the billions. After all, only a few could be transferred out, and the rest could only be left to fend for themselves.
The Wasteland of the Blood Territory, the City of Zhentian, was once the first pass of the Later Zhou Dynasty. The city wall of more than fifty feet covered with blood-stained moss towered into the clouds and stretched endlessly. In the hearts of the people of the Later Zhou Dynasty, this city of Zhentian, which had gone through thousands of years, was like a
The majestic mountains seem to never collapse.
However, the belief in the heart is not enough to change the difference in strength. After Zhentian City was completely attacked by the Black-armored Xuan Army of Great Qin, it has been reduced to a dead city. The mottled city walls have long since collapsed and decayed, and the rocks are piled up. Under the setting sun,
I can only remember and reminisce in my heart.
In Zhentian City, the rotten bones occasionally attract swarms of birds and beasts. Under the heavy gray clouds in the sky, it feels like you have arrived in the ghost realm. Not to mention ordinary people, even cultivators are terrified.
When Kong Laosan came here, it was already three months later.
Standing on the edge of Zhentian City, recalling the tragic scene of the killings that shocked the sky, Kong Laosan sighed softly, swayed, and directly drove the escape light towards the depths of Zhentian City.
After three years, this place didn't seem to have changed much. However, the deeper he walked, the more Kong Laosan felt an unreasonable irritability growing from the bottom of his heart. This feeling was inexplicable. After noticing this,
Kong Laosan immediately stopped and looked around, frowning slightly. After thinking about it, the power of spiritual thoughts swarmed out from the center of his eyebrows and explored the surroundings.
After a cup of tea, a glimmer of clarity flashed through Kong Laosan's eyes. After three years of brewing, the dead energy and blood that escaped from the bones here were mixed with the demonic energy that remained in heaven and earth, deep in this Tianzhen City.
Gradually merging and gathering, gradually forming a strange odor.
This kind of filthy gas has the power of demonic energy to disturb the mind, and it also has the violent and murderous intention of death energy. Perhaps after tens of thousands of years of evolution and fusion, some strange creatures may be born here. (Spiritual world)
After, return, take shape, foreshadow)
As soon as his mind moved, the spiritual power in his body suddenly condensed into a piece of green armor, which completely isolated these foul smells. He stretched out his body and walked towards the depths again.
However, just when he was still a long way away from the original bone refining place, Kong Laosan suddenly stopped and mobilized all his spiritual power to explore the "Bone Refining Formation" not far away.
.
It is said to be a "Bone Refining Formation", but in essence it is the same as the "Spirit Gathering Formation", except that the "Bone Refining Formation" has been slightly changed to form a special connection with the underground corpses.
There is no difference. One gathers the filthy air, while the other gathers the spiritual power of heaven and earth.
After thoroughly exploring the "Bone Refining Formation" in the distance, and even scanning the surrounding vegetation, Kong Laosan gathered his spiritual thoughts, and a trace of joy flashed across his face. After scanning with his spiritual consciousness, he found nothing unusual.
, even the few illusion restraints that were casually arranged before leaving were intact. It was only at this moment that Kong Laosan was completely relieved.
It wasn't until he stepped into the formation and took a closer look that Kong Laosan frowned slightly. After thinking for a while, he turned his palm over and found a thin booklet in his hand. The three words "Yin Ling Jing" were particularly conspicuous.
The Bone Puppet is one of the five types of weapons recorded in the Yin Ling Sutra. Once it is refined, it only needs to swallow the spines of living creatures. The more it is swallowed, the more powerful the Bone Puppet becomes.
After studying the booklet in his hand again, Kong Laosan closed his eyes for a while. After a while, he opened his eyes and moved his fingers lightly. A drop of blood shot out from his fingers. With Kong Laosan's few taps,
The blood droplets in front of him were wrapped in a layer of spiritual light, and along with the thick and abnormal stench around them, they soaked into the bones below.
After two full hours, Kong Laosan pursed his lips, and there was a hint of hesitation in his eyes. After all, the "bone puppet" was still a little short of the mark. It had not been refined for three years, and he didn't know that it was him.
The refining method is wrong, or it is caused by the changes in the environment here.
According to Kong Laosan’s estimation, it will take at least another five or six months for this “bone puppet” to be fully formed. After thinking about it, Kong Laosan decided to wait here. For cultivators,
, five or six months is not a long time.
With a flip of his wrist, three storage bags, one black, one green, and one yellow, fell in front of him. Kong Laosan was not polite, held the black storage bag in his hand, and with a wave of his hand, erased the mark of spiritual thoughts on the seal, and gently
With a slight shake, a bunch of miscellaneous items fell in front of him. In addition to dozens of spiritual stones, bottles of elixirs, identity tokens of the outer disciples of Qingling Sect, and some materials for refining weapons, etc., besides
In addition to these, there is also a palm-sized copper square box.
After glancing at the things in front of him, Kong Laosan put the spirit stone pills into his storage bag with a wave of his hand. His eyes passed over the other items and finally settled on the square box in front of him.
The copper box in front of me was quite expensive. There were some ancient bronze inscriptions on it. There was a faint spiritual light flickering at the opening, which was obviously restricted by something.
Upon noticing this, Kong Laosan's heart moved, and the power of his spiritual thoughts burst out of his body, and he carefully explored the copper box in his hand. After burning a stick of incense, he narrowed his eyes, casually clicked a spiritual pattern, and headed towards
After wielding several restrictions on the wooden box, there was a "crunching" sound, and the copper box in his hand opened. A blood-colored jade slip and a palm-sized golden order lay quietly inside.
There was nothing special about the golden order. It was a unique identity token for members of the Jin family. I just glanced at it and didn't care. What interested Kong Laosan the most was the last bloody jade slip.
The jade slip in front of him was as long as his index finger, flat and blood red, and there was a faint flow of extremely viscous liquid inside it. A trace of curiosity appeared in Kong Lao's eyes, and he put the jade slip between his eyebrows and briefly explored it.
After half a cup of tea, a look of surprise appeared on Kong Laosan's face. What was recorded in the jade slip was a secret technique unique to the Jin family, called "Blood Escape". Just hearing this name, Kong Laosan's mind
Zhongbian couldn't help but think of the scene when the golden shadow transformed into hundreds of blood shadows and fled in all directions. However, this blood escape technique seemed to have some flaws. Kong Laosan was not sure about it until he had time to investigate it carefully in the future.
Putting the jade slips aside, Kong Laosan glanced at the other two storage bags. His eyes were slightly hot, and he was not polite. He shook the two storage bags open together. Suddenly, a large number of items were thrown out.
falls in front of you.
With Kong Laosan's eyes, ordinary things were naturally ignored. After digging through these things for a long time, he finally left only two flying swords, a blue jade slip, a small pile of spiritual stones and some bottles of elixirs.
, as for other low-level weapon refining materials, robes, and property, they were swept away by Kong Laosan as if they were thrown away.
Looking at the blue jade slip in his hand, Kong Laosan's eyes showed a touch of fire, as if he was expecting something. He put the jade slip between his eyebrows and explored it carefully.
This time it took a full two hours. When I opened my eyes, there was no surprise that there was a hint of joy on my face, but there was a hint of doubt mixed with it.
What is recorded in the jade slips is a secret technique called "Soul Gathering Technique". After careful investigation, Kong Laosan discovered that this so-called "Soul Gathering Technique" was exactly what Huang Chenggui used to refining the six skills of Qingling Sect.
It is a secret technique that forcibly enhances the power of the soul. However, from Kong Laosan's perspective, this secret technique does not seem to be specifically used to enhance the soul, but rather is a means of condensing the remaining souls.
Looking at the two jade slips, one red and one green, Kong Laosan hesitated for a moment, then put the red jade slip into his storage bag, rubbed the green jade slip in his hand twice, and closed his eyes again to explore.
