Su Anran looked at the surrounding situation with some confusion.
When the Lingzhou accident happened before, although they were already in the waters offshore of Nanzhou, they could already see the coastline of Nanzhou. But in fact, normal people know that just because you can see the coastline does not mean that you are very close to the coast.
, it is often necessary to swim for another day before reaching the shallow sea area. Even if Su Anran and others are not ordinary people, it will take at least half a day to actually land ashore, right?
Although the time does not seem to be long, don't forget that the miasma in the Lost Sea has risen. Ordinary people will melt directly at the slightest contact. Even if the monks are physically stronger and can last longer, this half-day is basically enough.
That's the limit.
But now?
Su Anran could see the coast not far ahead.
If he gallops at full speed, it should only take about ten minutes at most to land.
This is absolutely not normal!
Su Anran looked up at the sky again.
Although there was miasma that obscured the sky when they were attacked, as long as their perception of the flow of time was not distorted and blocked, they could basically still know the time. Therefore, Su Anran clearly remembered that the time when the spirit boat exploded should be after noon, probably
At about two o'clock in the afternoon.
But now, although the sky is not dim, it is definitely bright.
Especially when there is a strange blood-colored scene all around, people can't help but feel a little hairy in their hearts.
That bright, blood-red ball, if Su Anran hadn't guessed, should be the moon, is still hanging in the sky.
In this situation, Su Anran thought of some very unpleasant things.
"Blood Moon..." The corner of his mouth twitched, "This damn thing...could it be related to some demons and monsters again?...I don't know what happened to Song Jue later."
When Su Anran mentioned monsters and ghosts, his first reaction was the world of monsters.
The fact that his system can be upgraded now is also due to the fantasy record obtained in that world - Su Anran now naturally knows what this thing he obtained was. The neon man inexplicably traveled to the world of demons
, and also brought changes to the demon world such as the Night Parade of Hundred Ghosts, all thanks to the golden finger of the fantasy record, whose function should be to turn fictional things that only exist in fantasy into reality.
So after obtaining this special golden finger, Su Anran's system had an additional core function: summoning the fourth natural disaster.
However, due to the particularity of the current environment, Su Anran has not enabled this function yet.
He just picks and completes the daily tasks that can be completed every day. As for those tasks that are fatal at first sight, Su Anran doesn't even look at them. The system is thinking of ways to make him die all day long. He Su Anran also
You're not stupid, how could you put your life on the line for so few achievement points? Anyway, by relying on other daily tasks, as long as the time is long enough, you can get a considerable amount of achievement points.
If you really want to offend your senior sister for such a small profit, then you are really out of your mind.
Su Anran thought while taking a look at her daily tasks.
[Daily tasks: 6/10]
Su Anran basically completed five to seven daily tasks every day. Those who teased her senior sister, tormented her senior sister, deceived her senior sister, stood upside down and had diarrhea...etc.? Something strange seemed to be mixed in?
All in all, Su Anran would never touch those weird or too difficult tasks.
And the reason why he opened his mission system interface at this time...
"It hasn't been refreshed yet, so it seems that the daily tasks of the system are calculated according to the time nodes of the mysterious world."
Su Anran sighed, and then slowly flew towards the coast ahead with sword light.
At the same time, my mind was constantly inferring what was going on with the sudden change in the scene in front of me.
"Although Lao Huang is usually not very reliable, he has lived in the mysterious world for thousands of years, and he still has a certain authority when it comes to being well-informed." Su Anran murmured to herself, "According to Lao Huang,
There are only three situations for this sudden spatial transformation..."
Su Anran said while switching the system interface to the shuttle function.
In the past few days, Su Anran had been constantly checking and studying his upgraded system, so he had already figured out the effects of these new functions.
For example, this shuttle function will automatically record the small worlds he has been to, and record the changes in the world after he left those small worlds. Although it is not recorded in detail, the entire small world is
Historical development and changes will generally be recorded.
This is why Su Anran knew that the human race in the demon world was about to be exterminated, but she didn't know what Song Jue's fate was like in the demon world.
At this time, Su Anran did not notice the appearance of the new world record in his shuttle function interface.
"Very good, we can rule out the possibility of entering the world." Su Anran said softly, "Then there are only two other possibilities left..."
Su Anran controlled the butcher to increase the flying altitude.
Then……
He couldn't see anything clearly.
The land mass on the coast was obviously wider than he imagined. Although he didn't know whether it was as big as a state, at least it definitely didn't fit the term "mirror space."
The so-called "mirror space", to put it bluntly, is a stable small space that is attached to its own small world and is forcibly opened up by powerful Daoji realm monks through various special refining methods after obtaining certain special space materials.
The biggest difference between this type of space and storage devices such as storage rings is that the mirror space can store living objects, unlike storage devices that can only be used to store dead objects.
However, because the mirror space uses special materials and is supplemented by the power of laws perceived by Taoist monks themselves, the general space area is not too outrageous. Of course, it is impossible for others to enter such a space unless the powerful monk is willing.
Only after the powerful monk who created this kind of space dies, his own small world is shattered, and then there is some kind of chemical reaction with the mirror space that no one can explain, will the area of the mirror space expand, and then other monks can be used without need.
Enter with the permission of the original owner.
After all, the original owner is dead, so why does he need the other party's consent?
Therefore, this type of expanded mirror space naturally has another name in the eyes of Xuanjie monks.
Space ruins.
The appearance of space ruins means the death of powerful monks with cultivation levels above the Taoist realm.
Such space relics often contain the monk's understanding of his own path, as well as other inheritance techniques, magic weapons, etc. Don't forget, the small world built by the monk himself needs a technique as the core.
To stabilize the entire small world and confirm one's own main insights and the principles of cultivation, so it is natural and reasonable that there will be a legacy of the inheritance of the practice.
But no matter what, the area of such space ruins cannot be that large.
It is quite remarkable to have a mountain as big as one.
Even if the land mass that Su Anran is seeing is not as big as a state, it is definitely one-fifth of it.
At the very least, Su Anran can be sure that this place is definitely not some space ruins based on the vastness that can't be seen at a glance.
"The secret world."
Su Anran sighed.
He still remembered that a long time ago, probably in Chapter 97 of the first volume, Su Anran heard Huang Zi mention a little bit about the situation in the secret world.
The secret world and the residual world can all be regarded as secret realms.
It's just that the way to enter the secret world is not clear, and it is also very fluid.
According to rumors, there are monks who entered the same secret realm in Dongzhou and Xizhou at the same time - the two states clearly belong to two states, millions of miles apart, but after entering the secret realm, the two of them were only ten steps apart.
It seemed so miraculous that neither of them even knew why they entered this place.
It is precisely because of this that there are various legends about the secret world.
There are only three possibilities for being suddenly involved in another special space environment that is not in the present moment.
The reincarnator who was selected to experience the small world of all realms accidentally entered the space ruins left by a Taoist monk, as well as the rarest secret world.
Now that Su Anran has ruled out the first two possibilities at this time, the remaining answers will only be established facts no matter how surprising they are.
Not long after, he rode the sword light and landed on the coast.
Looking back, Su Anran could see the same endless sea surface, but there was an intuition telling him that if he dared to go deeper into the sea, he would definitely die in a very ugly way. Although this
The land plate felt quite dangerous to him, and he really didn't want to set foot here, but compared to the ever-present creepy feeling in the sea, this land could be said to be heart-warming.
The landing point is a beach.
But it is different from the softness of normal beach.
Su Anran landed on it, feeling that the sand was more like the Gobi desert that had been baked hard by the blazing sun.
He tried to stab it with his sword.
The sword edge entered the ground three inches, and there was a sound of gold and iron clashing.
After thinking for a while, he hit the ground with sword energy again.
But the effect is not ideal: there is only a shallow pit about an inch away.
Su Anran estimated that his strongest attack method had been reduced by almost four-fifths of its lethality, which gave him an unusual headache.
"The demon clan has dragged those of us who came to help into this secret world. It is impossible for us to be unprepared." Su Anran began to learn to analyze on his own, "If all the demon clan have this kind of defense strength, then I
I'm afraid it's really useless... No, I have to find senior sisters and the others as soon as possible."
After Su Anran determined the target, she didn't waste any time and immediately took off with her sword.
In Su Anran's view, they were attacked on the sea near Nanzhou, and then he was sucked into this secret world. Although he didn't know why he only saw himself after entering, he thought he was sucked into an area.
In the secret world, even if you are separated from Fifth Senior Sister and others, they should be nearby. You should be able to find them quickly after a little searching.
If that doesn't work, you can just find Kong Ling.
After all, in terms of sword skills, Kong Ling is quite capable.
But just when Su Anran was about to fly into the air, a powerful suction force suddenly emerged from the ground. Su Anran suddenly felt a tearing sensation in his limbs, as if his whole body was to be torn apart. He immediately
He didn't dare to forcefully lift off, and immediately landed back on the ground, whereupon the terrible suction force disappeared.
"Forbidden air area?" Su Anran's expression changed slightly, "This..."
…
"Senior sister! Mr. Su...Mr. Su is missing!"
Kong Ling shouted with a panic look on his face.
"What's going on?"
Wang Yuanji's image at this time was a bit embarrassing.
The sudden explosion of the spirit boat, coupled with the monks' eagerness to escape, caused a chaotic scene, so Wang Yuanji, Su Anran and others were scattered by the crowd. However, Wang Yuanji considered that Lin Yiyi's own combat power was almost zero and she was a typical waste.
Although her little junior brother was naughty, he still had the ability to protect himself, so she took Lin Yiyi all the way to break out, leaving only Su Anran and Kong Ling behind her.
But I didn't expect that there was only Kong Ling now.
"Mr. Su...Mr. Su, he..." Kong Ling looked eager.
"Don't be impatient. Speak slowly."
"Mr. Su..." Kong Ling took a deep breath, "Mr. Su's figure suddenly faded in front of me, and then disappeared completely. I tried to catch Mr. Su, but something seemed to be blocking me.
For me, it was like... there was a wall separating Mr. Su and me. And no matter what I shouted, Mr. Su didn't hear me. He kept moving forward from beginning to end, and then disappeared.
"
"Disappear into thin air?"
"Yes!" Kong Ling nodded.
"You said you tried to catch An Ran, but something blocked you?"
"Yes." Kong Ling nodded again.
"It's troublesome." Lin Yiyi suddenly said, "Junior brother... may he have entered the secret world by mistake."
Unlike Su Anran, who still needs to practice on his own before he can confirm his idea, Wang Yuanji, Lin Yiyi and others have lived hundreds of years longer than Su Anran, and they are certainly not weak in knowledge, so they can do it with just a few ethereal words.
Determine Su Anran's whereabouts.
"Yes." Wang Yuanji nodded, "But I'm afraid it can no longer be called a secret world... The secret world is a special secret realm that is fluid and cannot be determined. However, since the demon clan can control the opening of this secret realm,
method, then this cannot be said to be a secret world."
"But if the demon clan knows how to open this secret world, why don't they take control of it?"
"There is only one reason." Wang Yuanji's face looked very ugly, "This secret world is very dangerous, so dangerous that even the demon clan is unwilling to bring it under control... But it has to be said that this time the demon clan used the opening of this secret world to deal with it.
We monks who rushed to the aid of Nanzhou have indeed achieved great results."
There were more than a dozen spirit boats when they arrived, but now there were only five spirit boats left, and a full two-thirds of the spirit boats were lost.
But what’s even more frightening is that of the thousands of monks who came to Nanzhou’s aid, there are now less than a thousand left!
Except for those who died instantly due to the explosion of the spirit boat and those who died fighting the sea monster, there were probably hundreds of monks who suffered the same fate as Su Anran.
"Do you know how to open the secret world?"
"I've already guessed it." Wang Yuanji nodded, "The blood sacrifice... and I'm afraid it will have to be a blood sacrifice on a rather large scale."
…
"Hey, someone came in again."
The human-skinned skeleton laughed.
It's just that this laughter sounds particularly scary.
Li Qinglian looked back and saw Zhuge Fu and another disciple of Lingjian Villa.
"ah--"
As soon as he saw the human skin skeleton, Zhuge Fu let out a scream.
But what was faster than her voice was that she had already formed a conditioned reflex action. A strong surge of true energy suddenly surged, and several sharp bamboo shoots emerged from the ground. The sharp ends of these thorns were facing
Human skin skull.
"Stop it!" Li Qinglian suddenly shouted.
"It's okay." The human-skinned skeleton said lightly, and then he raised his foot and stamped his foot. The ground shook, and all the emerging thorns were instantly shattered.
Zhuge Fu, on the other hand, spurted out a mouthful of blood.
She suffered the backlash from the infuriating energy of the spell being forcibly broken.
The expressions of Li Qinglian, Zhuge Fu and another sword cultivator from Lingjian Villa all changed.
They didn't expect that this human skin skeleton could have such terrifying methods.
"It is not easy to open the ancient battlefield of the netherworld. Without a large-scale blood sacrifice, it is impossible to open this gap in the world."
"Huge scale?" Zhugefu keenly noticed some words, "I dare to ask, senior, how big is the scale you are talking about?"
Being able to break her own spell by just stamping her feet was far beyond Zhuge Fu's imagination, so she didn't dare to have any thoughts of revenge. Moreover, when she came in before, she didn't see the surrounding situation clearly.
So she subconsciously launched an attack, but seeing the surrounding environment at this time, she really couldn't think of any thoughts of becoming an enemy. After all, she was not that capable of killing corpses all around her.
She was just glad now that this human-skinned skeleton didn't seem to be hostile to the rest of them.
"On a scale of more than 10,000 people, the gap can be opened for an hour."
"A scale of more than ten thousand people..." Li Qinglian chewed on the meaning of this sentence, and then her expression changed.
The Nanzhou Monster Clan suddenly rushed out of the Hundred Thousand Mountains and started a war with the five major sects, resulting in more than 10,000 casualties!
Just the loss of three strongholds in Dahuang City resulted in the death of tens of thousands of monks, not to mention ordinary people. And this is only counting the human race. Blood sacrifice does not care what kind of sacrifice you are being used as.
, if the Nanzhou Monster Clan dares to attack the five major sects at the same time, will the number of deaths be less? What's more, there are so many monsters, ferocious beasts, and strange beasts in Shiwan Mountain, and those can also be used as sacrifices.
Who knows how many Nanzhou demon clan has killed.
Probably seeing what Li Qinglian was thinking at this time, the human-skinned skeleton suddenly smiled: "Now that the ancient battlefield of the Netherworld has been completely opened, as long as the traces of blood energy fluctuations are too strong anywhere on the land of Nanzhou, it will inevitably
It will attract people close to the ancient battlefield, and then there will be some unlucky people... For example, a few of you, who were contacted by the ancient battlefield, and then dragged into this secret world."
"What on earth do those monsters want to do!" Zhugefu said with an angry look on his face.
But Li Qinglian was much calmer.
He said in a deep voice: "Senior, is there any... way to get out of here?"
"Ha." The human-skinned skeleton seemed to have heard a very funny joke, "Do you think it is so easy to leave the Netherworld? ... Moreover, this place is more dangerous than you think."
"Haven't you noticed that your blood is losing very quickly?"
After Li Qinglian, Zhugefu and others felt it silently, their expressions changed instantly.
"Senior, what will happen if our blood is completely lost?"
"Don't worry, you won't die." The human-skinned skeleton laughed, but before Zhugefu and others could completely relax, it spoke again, "But if you are lucky enough, you will become like me now. If you are lucky,
If it’s not good enough... then you will become a resident of the underworld.”
Having said this, the human-skinned skeleton pointed at the extremely weird and weird creatures and said, "Have you seen those weird creatures? Those are the netherworld creatures. These guys were all humans when they were alive... Oh,
Maybe some of them are monsters, monsters, ferocious beasts or something like that. Anyway, what they were in life is no longer important. After all, they have become like this ghost, and they only have one identity."
Seeing the increasingly ugly faces of Zhuge Fu and Li Qinglian, the human-skinned skeleton grinned and said, "That's...the thing from the underworld."
