Peeping Heaven took out a white jade compass, and after injecting spiritual power, several rays of light flew out of the compass.
After leaving the compass, the light becomes invisible.
Half a quarter of an hour later, all the light flew back to the compass.
A piece of gray-white mist appeared above, with a faint red light in it.
There was only a blood-red dot in the middle of the fog.
Zhi Tianzhen was a little confused: "There were a lot of human and demon monks who died in the Ascension Valley, so it's not surprising that there is some demonic energy.
But why is the place with the strongest demonic energy not in the Ascension Valley, but on our side? Do any of you carry anything related to the demons?"
Wang Daoyuan replied: "My robe is made from demon wings. The refining time was only a few hundred years ago. There should still be a lot of residual demonic energy."
Several rays of light flew out of the compass, and Wang Daoyuan's whole body was explored. The innocent man nodded: "It is indeed a problem with the robe. There is no obvious demonic energy left near this place. At least there are no demons in the near future."
Master Wu Jian asked: "Uncle Qi Tian, there are many small secret realms around here. Can you explore the situation in the secret realms?"
Zhi Tianzhen smiled and said: "This is really difficult for me. The secret realm and the outside world are separated by the laws of space.
All spells cannot pass through the entrance to the secret realm.
Except for monks who master the laws of space, no one can detect the situation inside the secret realm from outside the secret realm.
Let’s go back to Demon Town first and send a message to Baoding Mountain.”
Wang Daoyuan shook his head and said: "You go back first, I want to explore the situation here.
You don’t have to worry about me, now take a look, can you still find me?”
After that, cast the Hidden Demon Technique.
Zhi Tianzhen and Wu Jian Zhenren used their spiritual senses to explore their surroundings, but found nothing.
"Senior Nephew Dao Yuan is indeed very capable. This skill can completely evade the detection of all the monks below Nascent Soul.
Even with my demon-seeking compass, I can only see an extremely weak presence of demonic energy nearby.
But you still have to be careful, the demons are unique in their soul.
You can hide this from me, but you may not be able to hide it from the demons of the Yin Demon lineage."
Wang Daoyuan naturally knew this well. When he first formed the elixir, he came to Yumo Mountain.
Wearing a black demon robe, he is supposed to be able to avoid detection by all monks below Nascent Soul.
But he was still discovered by the Devouring Spirits, and they followed him all the way.
Whether they are human monks or demons, their magical powers are all kinds of strange.
No one dares to say that a certain method can deal with all opponents of the same level.
Wang Daoyuan cupped his hands and said: "Uncle Qiuting, don't worry, I still understand this.
I am just exploring the area to see if I can find any traces of the demons. I will not enter the secret realm, nor will I take risks in the Demon Control Mountain."
Neither of them said anything else. They returned to Demon Suppression City and contacted Baoding Mountain to report the situation here.
Wang Daoyuan hid his figure and entered the Ascension Valley.
There is a smell of corpse refining here. It seems that the zombie refining team under the master Wan Zhi are frequently active nearby.
However, there was no trace of the corpse refining in the Ascension Valley at this time.
He came to the altar in the center of Ascension Valley. There was still a strong spatial fluctuation on the altar.
It's just that the fluctuations in this space are very chaotic and not as stable as those near the entrance to the secret realm.
There are extremely profound patterns engraved on the altar.
It looks like a pattern, but I can't be sure.
This place is the place of ascension in the lower realm, and the altar is in the center of the Ascension Valley, so the eight formation patterns maintain the ascension passage.
The formation patterns are extremely incomplete, and the remaining patterns can only be seen as mysterious and extraordinary, but have little research value.
There was nothing interesting to see here, so Wang Daoyuan flew around the valley again to check the situation on the mountain peaks.
The diameter of the entire valley is less than two hundred miles, and his consciousness can completely cover it.
But releasing his spiritual consciousness would easily expose himself, so in order to hide it, he did not use the power of his spiritual consciousness.
There are really many discoveries on these mountain peaks.
Although these mountains were severely damaged after the war, there are still incomplete texts in some places.
For example, a huge stone that fell to the ground has traces of writing on it.
After tens of thousands of years of changes, most texts have become incomplete.
Only a few words can be vaguely discerned.
Among them are the words "Duan Gong of the Song Dynasty". These words are not the oracle bone inscriptions in the Beiyuan Immortal World, but are exactly the same as the words in the previous life.
Wang Daoyuan was also somewhat interested in history in his previous life. Duangong was the reign name of Song Zhenzong in the Song Dynasty.
The person who carved this word must have come from that world in his previous life.
In other words, this Ascension Valley is indeed connected to the world in the previous life.
It's just that the time doesn't match up. Ascension Valley was destroyed by the invasion of demons, more than 70,000 years ago.
During the Duangong period of the Song Dynasty, it was only about a thousand years from when Wang Daoyuan traveled through.
He continued to look at other mountains and rocks, and found many other remaining writings.
Among them are the words Han, Jin, Tang, etc., and on a mountain peak, the words "Han Yongshou" appear. Yongshou is the reign name of Emperor Huan of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
From this point of view, it should not be a coincidence.
The time difference may be due to the different time flow rates in the two worlds.
When it comes to time, it's not that simple.
There are many traces of writing on these mountains and rocks, but unfortunately most of them cannot be identified.
These happened tens of thousands of years ago, and after the demonic invasion, the deeds of those who ascended have not been handed down.
Wang Daoyuan did not get any more information from it. The guess in his heart had been confirmed and he no longer dwelled on the matter.
Just around the Ascension Valley, look for the secret realm.
Not long after, he actually discovered a secret realm, but at the entrance to the secret realm, there was a strong aura of corpse and death.
Needless to say, this must be where Wan Zhi Zhenren is hiding.
Wang Daoyuan didn't go in rashly. He had been tricked before. If he had a grudge, he would do something to himself.
The formation of thousands of corpses is no joke. Outside the secret realm, Wang Daoyuan is sure to escape with his life.
Inside the secret realm, it’s hard to say.
After staying nearby for two days, I finally saw the refining corpse.
I saw two corpses returning from the west of Ascension Valley. One of them was a humanoid corpse with a storage bag hanging on his waist.
His body was covered in blood. Judging from the remaining spiritual power fluctuations in the blood, it should be the blood of a vicious beast.
Master Wan Zhi really devoted himself to expanding the strength of his subordinates. Fierce beasts are the best materials for refining corpses, which are much stronger than killing ordinary monsters.
Two of the zombies walked to the entrance of the secret realm, and the other dog-shaped corpse sniffed around for a while.
Then, the humanoid corpse-refining man spoke: "Fellow Daoist Wang, you are all well. Come to me now. Could it be that Master Lei Yan has some orders?"
The Hidden Demon Technique still couldn't completely hide its own scent, so it was discovered by the dog-shaped corpse.
Wang Daoyuan no longer hid, and retreated more than ten miles before revealing his figure.
This corpse-refining person was able to say this, probably because he was under the control of the real person Wan Zhi.
He was a little confused and asked: "Can you control the corpse-refining clone through the secret realm portal?
Divine consciousness spells cannot cross the secret realm. This is a limitation of the laws of space. How did you overcome this limitation?"
The corpse-refining man smiled and said: "Fortunately, I was able to awaken a small magical power related to the soul. I don't control these corpse-refining machines solely by relying on the incomplete soul-nurturing technique of clones."
Wang Daoyuan nodded: "No wonder you can control clones across secret realms.
I came here not because of Master's orders, but because demons are rampant. This Ascension Valley area is not far from Demon Control Mountain.
To the east is the Demon-Suppressing City where the Shenbing Pavilion and Taiyi Sword Sect are stationed. The seniors were worried that the demons would reach out here, so they asked me to patrol nearby.
You are considered a local snake here, have you found any traces of the demons and their lackeys?"
Lian Zhi replied: "Only ferocious beasts roam this place. In the past few years, I have killed more than thirty ferocious beasts.
As for the demon cultivators and demons, I haven’t seen any of them.”
