Darkness, like the blackest night, envelopes all directions, never-ending.
Inside the Endless Abyss, there is countless dark energy, and black is the eternal background color here.
But loneliness and tranquility are not the style of Endless Heaven. Danger everywhere is the main theme of this world.
Just like the environment in the Void Sea is extremely unfriendly to monks below the True Immortal Realm, the environment in the Endless Abyss is also extremely unfriendly to monks below the Hunyuan Realm.
For example, in some extremely twisted dark spaces, there are hidden vortices that can swallow up the Taoist master. Another example is that a tide of dark energy can come at any time, which may cause huge disasters.
Or.
Just like the scene before me.
In the endless abyss, which is as dark as night, two terrifying monsters exuding an extremely dangerous aura like thick black fog are frantically besieging a Taoist boat coming from a foreign land.
The Taoist boat opened up a light shield and rushed left and right in the darkness.
At the same time, there were two more figures exuding a terrifying aura guarding the left and right sides of the Dao Zhou. The huge phantom of the Dharma stood upright from the sky. With a wave of his hand, the power of the terrifying law came out, and they started a fierce battle with the black mist-like terrifying monster.
Fight.
Within a few moments, the two black mist monsters were traumatized and fled quickly out of instinctive fear, blending into the endless and twisted world of darkness.
The two figures who fought with the monster also gathered their energy and returned to the Dao boat.
In the Dao boat, there were people who had been waiting for a long time. When they saw the two people returning, they immediately went to greet them.
It turned out that the two figures fighting the monster were the two Taoist-level powerhouses from Nanye Divine Continent, [Taoist Master Tianyan] and [Master Bliss].
Among the two, the Supreme Leader is the stronger and is naturally the main force in this battle.
After a fierce battle, the leader of Paradise, who had always been dressed in gorgeous clothes and with fine hair down to the hair, now had messy hair and hair, a ragged red dress, and his breath was unusually unstable. He had obviously suffered internal injuries.
While she took out the healing elixir and stuffed it into her mouth, she gave the man who came up to her a vicious look: "Wang Shouzhe, you tricked me into the Endless Abyss, and you asked me to be your thug, right?
"
"In the past six months, we have encountered a total of seven [Tianyuan Demonic Demons]. As a result, there is not even a trace of the ruins of the Laoshizi Forbidden Zone you are looking for."
Hearing this, Master Tianyan also glanced at Wang Shouzhe faintly.
Compared with the main leader of the Paradise Cult, he is mainly responsible for using formations to contain the Tianyuan Demonic Demon. At this moment, he can still maintain the appearance of the immortal wind, but the long-term fighting and psychological depression have made his eyes more dark.
A hint of fatigue.
"Master, calm down, I didn't expect this trip to be so dangerous." Wang Shouzhe apologized to the two of them with a look of shame, "In this way, I will add thirty more Chaos Spirit Stones to the leader I promised before!"
"Bah! Our Paradise Cult is not a poor sect like the Tianyan Taoist League, and our leader is so rare that you have a few chaos-breaking spirit stones." The leader of the Paradise spat viciously, "The reason why my leader came to help is
, and it’s not because I, the sect leader, value my promises and uphold morality. To put it bluntly, if it weren’t for the friendship with you, Wang Shouzhe, no matter how much money I gave, I wouldn’t have come to this endless abyss to suffer.”
The Endless Abyss is not a kind place. Even if the Taoist master wanders around in it, he is very likely to perish here.
The most frightening thing is that the interior of the Endless Abyss isolates the way of heaven and blocks the long river of reincarnation. If one dies in the Endless Abyss, the true spirit cannot even enter the long river of reincarnation and be reincarnated, and can only continue to wander in the endless abyss as a remnant soul.
.
But don't think this is a good thing.
The Endless Abyss was dangerous to the Taoist Master in his heyday, let alone the remnant soul?
If the soul cannot escape, over time, the soul will be gradually eroded by the energy of dark matter, and the true spirit will gradually turn into a demon. Eventually, it will lose its wisdom and only have the devouring instinct, turning into a monster that is neither human nor ghost.
Evil], you will never be able to transcend it forever.
The Abyss Demons inside the Endless Abyss today were gradually accumulated over the endless years. There are creatures that took the initiative to take risks and then died, and there are also creatures that were erupted, spread and devoured by the Endless Abyss.
It was precisely because Wang Shouzhe understood the horror of the Endless Abyss that he made sufficient preparations. First, he built a stable entrance passage to prevent the entrance from collapsing and being unable to get out, and guarded the entrance with heavy troops to respond at any time.
At the same time, he also invited Taoist Master Taichu, Taoist Tianyan, and Master Ji Le to act together.
If there are more Taoist masters, the ordinary Tianyuan Demonic Demon will not be a threat.
Of course, he also had to guard against a certain "teammate" who would be unjust for his own benefit, so he also prepared some means to kill each other in the Endless Abyss, and induced every Taoist master in advance to swear a poisonous oath and sign a cooperation contract.
In short, he has tried his best to eliminate various hidden dangers in advance, but this operation is still a relatively willful adventure.
There is no way, the [Tian Shui Dao Book] is of great strategic significance to the Wang family, and the [Dark Energy Tide Calm Period] inside the Endless Abyss is also limited.
If it drags on for too long, the interior of the Endless Abyss will enter the [Energy Tide Chaotic Period] again. At that time, the danger level in the Endless Abyss will skyrocket, and the internal space will fall into a state of chaos and disorder. If you want to retrieve the lost Taoist book,
It is even more difficult to reach the sky.
All kinds of thoughts flashed through Wang Shouzhe's mind. He continued to smile and cupped his hands towards the leader of Paradise and said, "Shouzhe thanks the leader for his friendship. So, how do you think I can compensate you?"
"This is just right." The leader of the Supreme Joy said with satisfaction, "When I go back after this is completed, I will establish the Supreme Joy Dynasty. In addition to the hundred high-quality talents of the Wang family that you promised to support me before, Shou
Zhe, you will also go and be the chief minister of my cabinet for a period of one thousand years."
"no."
Before Wang Shouzhe could speak, Liu Ruolan on the side sternly refused: "My husband is used to staying at home. He doesn't have the free time to be the chief minister of the cabinet. At most, I will allocate to you thirty fresh graduates from Wang clan studies."
"Ruo Lan, we are best friends now..." The leader of Paradise was slightly dissatisfied, "You have beaten me a lot these days."
"Haha~~ What if you don't want it?" Liu Ruolan glanced at her.
"If you want, thirty will be thirty, but I have to pick them myself." After thinking about it, the leader of Paradise thought that although beauty was tempting, career was more important.
She has been brewing the plan to create the Paradise Dynasty for a long time, and now that it has finally come to light, she naturally wants to find ways to promote it.
It's just that the establishment of a divine dynasty is not a simple matter. Its management is much more complicated than that of a sect. There are so many things involved that she cannot handle it alone. There must be a large number of related people.
Talent to support.
She has been with the Wang family for a while and has been coveting Wang's talent pool for a long time.
"In that case, we are not allowed to bargain again." Wang Shouzhe nodded and agreed, "Otherwise, the boat of friendship between me and the leader will capsize."
"That's natural. Is this leader the kind of person who doesn't keep his word?" Seeing that he had gained extra benefits, the leader of the Supreme Joy was in a great mood.
"Senior Tianyan, I have really worked hard for you this time." After Wang Shouzhe dealt with Master Ji Le's sabotage, he turned to Taoist Master Tianyan and said, "This mission is indeed more difficult than expected. Shouzhe is willing to compensate you for three extra
Ten Chaos Spiritual Stones.”
As soon as he said this, Taoist Master Tianyan immediately felt his waist and legs no longer hurt.
The resentful look in his eyes disappeared in an instant, and he thanked him again and again: "Master Shouzhe, don't worry, I, Tianyan, will protect you no matter what this time."
The reason why he addressed Wang Shouzhe as "you" was that he thought he had sworn sworn sworn relationship with Wang Anye, and naturally he had to respect the head of the Shouzhe family more.
In fact, the effect is indeed remarkable. The head of the Shouzhe family really regards him as one of his own now. In terms of strength, he is far inferior to the leader of the Bliss. Hasn't he also been replenished with thirty Chaos Spiritual Stones?
As for the Taichu Taoist who was responsible for driving the Tao boat, Wang Shouzhe didn't talk nonsense with him. He was a true one of his own, and he would definitely not suffer a loss later.
After handling the matter, Wang Shouzhe turned to Ancestor Luo He who was in a state of trepidation and said, "Ancestor Luo He, could you please think about it carefully, which direction should we go next?"
"The inner space of the Endless Tianyuan is too weird and dark. I can only vaguely feel that the general direction is this way, and the distance should not be far." Ancestor Luo He was also slightly helpless, "I'm afraid I have to search back and forth to try my luck.
Already."
Since it's a matter of luck...
Wang Shouzhe's eyes fell on Wang Anye: "Anye, what do you think?"
At this time, luck navigation is probably the most reliable.
Wang Shouzhe originally thought that after arriving in the Endless Heavenly Abyss, Wang Anye's luck would be weakened due to the isolation of the way of heaven.
After all, the power of luck is generally considered to be favored by heaven. In places where there is no heaven, it is normal for the power of luck to be weakened.
But who knew that in just six months of sailing, he had already picked up more than ten pieces of garbage along the way, with a total value of more than ten Chaos Spiritual Stones!
He also picked up a complete holy sword, increasing his total number of holy swords to five!
It can be inferred from this that in this endless abyss, Wang Anye's good luck has not been reduced, but seems to have been strengthened!
"Grandpa, I can only give it a try, but I can't be sure." Wang Anye took out the holy sword he picked up two months ago, suspended it in front of him, and pulled it casually, and the holy sword immediately started spinning rapidly.
After a while, it slowly and naturally stopped, with the tip of the sword pointing in one direction.
"Senior Hongzhen, please go in that direction." Wang Shouzhe perked up and immediately directed Taichu Taoist Master to change direction.
In this way, another month passed. Wang Anye conducted four luck navigations, and the direction of Taichu Daozhou was adjusted several times before it finally stabilized.
Finally, in the darkness at the end of the field of vision, a faint light appeared in the distance.
Everyone on the Tao boat was overjoyed and immediately set off.
Soon, a huge "lake" appeared in sight.
Different from the "sky lake" composed of energy in the normal void sea, this lake is composed of real Yuan Shui spiritual energy. The extremely pure Yuan Shui spiritual energy gathers into the lake, and the water waves are clear and turbulent, like a pure crystal.
like sapphires embedded in the endless darkness.
"This is it!"
Upon seeing this scene, Ancestor Luohe immediately became excited: "In this lake, there are some broken crystal palaces, and a huge water spirit giant... Eh?!"
Her expression changed.
Everyone in the Daozhou also noticed something was wrong at this time.
I saw waves of violent energy impact waves erupting in the lake in the distance.
With such a long distance, they could not hear the roar of energy impact, but with their eyesight, they could already observe the continuous bursts of fluctuations of Yuan Shui spiritual energy, as well as the restless and entangled evil force.
Needless to say, a fierce battle is definitely taking place in that lake.
As he spoke, the distance between the two sides quickly shortened.
Only then did everyone see clearly that in the lake, a blue water giant was waving its fists and fighting fiercely with two Tianyuan demons.
The body of the water giant is completely composed of pure water aura. It is huge in size. Standing on the lake, its aura is completely integrated with the entire lake, as if it was formed by the creatures of the spiritual lake here. It looks majestic.
Very powerful.
But I don’t know if it’s because the ruins have been deserted for too long and cannot be replenished with energy. Although the water giant’s aura is powerful, it is slightly invincible against the two Tianyuan Demonic Demons.
"Senior Ji Le, Senior Tian Yan." Wang Shouzhe thought for a moment, turned directly to the two Taoist masters, and asked, "Can you two help me to help the water element giant repel the Tianyuan Demonic Demon?"
The Master of Paradise and Taoist Master Tianyan responded, immediately flew out of the Taoist boat, flew to the top of the lake at high speed, and without saying a word, they joined forces to attack Tianyuan Demon.
In the past few days, the two Taoist masters have joined forces many times and have developed a certain tacit understanding. At this moment, as soon as they took action, they directly caught a Tianyuan evil evil and beat it wildly.
Although these Tianyuan demons are powerful, and every attack contains the power of powerful laws and is full of lethality, after all, they only have instincts and no wisdom. Under normal circumstances, if they are one-on-one with the Taoist master, most of them will
The Taoist Master will always win.
Unless you encounter a more ferocious Tianyuan Demonic Demon, or multiple Tianyuan Demonic Demons, it will be particularly dangerous.
The water giant was also very smart and knew that the person was coming to help, so he took the initiative to take up the task of containing him.
Just over an hour later, the Tianyuan Demonic Demon that had been set on fire could no longer bear the beating, and transformed into black mist and fled in embarrassment, blending into the endless darkness.
After another half an hour, another Tianyuan Demonic Demon could no longer hold on under the attack of the two Taoist masters and the water giant, and transformed into black mist and ran away in embarrassment.
These abyss demons come and go without a trace. When not taking action, they are almost blended into the endless darkness in the endless abyss. They are extremely difficult to distinguish. If they just run away, it will be difficult for humans to catch up.
Seeing this, the two Taoist Masters Ji Le and Tian Yan did not pursue him, but stayed where they were, waiting for Taichu Taoist Boat to arrive.
now.
Without the threat of the Tianyuan Demon, the water giant standing in the lake finally had time to take a good look at the two human Taoists who suddenly appeared.
It looked at the two leaders of the Paradise Cult with vigilant eyes, and a divine thought sounded: "Are you here to hunt for treasures in the dark virtual world? I advise you to leave as soon as possible. Even the dark virtual world in the calm period is full of fatal dangers."
It does not speak the language of the demons, nor is it the language of humans or immortals, but what is very magical is that everyone can understand the meaning it wants to express from the fluctuations of its spiritual thoughts.
At this time, Taichu Daozhou finally flew to the edge of the lake.
The soul of Ancestor Luo He flew over from the Dao boat, looked at the water element giant from a distance, and said excitedly: "Senior, do you still remember me?"
"Is it you?" The water element giant's expression changed, obviously thinking of her, "Didn't you leave while the tide was calm some time ago? Why are you back again?"
The so-called period of time has actually passed for thousands of years.
Ancestor Luo He's soul was enshrined in the jade pendant. It floated inside the Endless Abyss like a piece of garbage for a long time before it was lucky enough to float to the entrance and was picked up by Wang Anye.
Fortunately, the time is relatively short, and the jade pendant has a certain protective effect. Otherwise, Ancestor Luo He will be eroded by dark energy sooner or later, and gradually turn into a demon of Tianyuan!
In the entire endless abyss, only abandoned restricted areas like this lake can keep the spiritual platform clear and the soul from being eroded due to the protection of the ancestors' legacy.
This is why the ancestors of Luohe have survived to this day.
"Luo He, thank you, senior, for protecting me for so long." Ancestor Luo He looked at the water giant with gratitude in his eyes, "I was lucky enough to meet my family this time. Therefore, I brought them back to look for my relics. I don't know, senior."
, can you return my belongings?"
After she used the energy tide of the Endless Abyss and died together with Jing Qiqi and other pursuers, the remnant soul tried her best to escape with the storage ring and Taoist book, trying to leave the Endless Abyss, but in the end she failed.
Fortunately, she was lucky. She was lucky enough to encounter the ruins of the restricted area before she ran out of energy, successfully hid in them, and fell into a long sleep.
She can sleep here. Without the permission of the water element giant, she would naturally not be able to succeed.
Hearing the words of Ancestor Luo He, Master Ji Le and Master Tian Yan were both surprised.
This is a Taoist book, how can you ask such a direct question?
Their eyes immediately fell on the water element giant.
"good."
The water element giant was very happy. With a wave of his giant hand, a water column rose from the lake.
Above the water column, a Taoist book as clear as a crystal jade slip exuded a mysterious aura, and next to it was a storage ring of the holy weapon level.
Ancestor Luo He didn't expect the water element giant to be so easy to talk to, so he immediately thanked him profusely: "Thank you, senior giant."
"You don't need to thank me, I'm just a weapon spirit." The water element giant said, "My master [娏] (phonetic: mang), she taught me that this divine water realm is a place where living creatures live. There are guests coming to visit.
, If he is a kind guest, he should be treated with the courtesy of a guest; if he is in trouble, he should help if he can; if he is a bad guest, he should be driven away with the force of thunder."
"You are a kind guest, so I have no reason to take your things away. Once you take your things, leave quickly. The energy in the restricted area is getting less and less, and I can no longer protect you."
Patriarch Luohe thanked him again: "We will delay for a while to give our children time to inherit the Taoism."
Then, she took the Taoist book and the storage ring and returned to the Taoist boat.
Master Ji Le and Dao Master Tianyan hurriedly followed.
Returning to the Dao boat, Master Ji Le looked at the [Tianshui Dao Shu] in the hands of Patriarch Luo He. A trace of desire flashed across his eyes, and he said unabashedly: "Wang Shouzhe, I am really jealous. If it weren't for my scruples,
If there are too many, I might steal your Taoist book."
This is the "Tianshui Taoist Book". Who knows about the four major divine continents?
Legend has it that the Tianshui lineage of the Wuji Taoist Palace was ranked among the top among many ways, and its core inheritance [Tianshui Taoist Book] pointed directly to the original avenue, which was much stronger than ordinary junior Taoist books.
If not for this, Patriarch Luohe would not have been able to drag the powerful Jing Shiqi to death together.
Even if she already owns such a Taoist book, she is still very greedy.
"Senior Ji Le is a person who does big things and has a big picture in his mind." Wang Shouzhe said with a smile, "If this is not the case, how could Shouzhe trust you so much and specially invite you to participate."
The leader of Paradise gave him a sideways glance.
Do you trust me?
If you really believe me, please put away those messy weapons in the storage ring first!
Those things may not be able to completely threaten her outside, but in this endless abyss, they can easily trigger a tide of dark energy!
While the two were talking, Patriarch Luo He had already called the Ying clan's Holy King Tianzhu and the head of the family, Ying Jianbai, out of the cabin of Taichu Daozhou.
She said seriously: "You two, don't say that my ancestor is partial to Ruolan. Jianbai is currently the most suitable candidate for the Ying family to inherit the book of Taoism. Come on, come on, you and Ruolan stand together."
Ying Jianbai's face fell a little: "Ancestor, please don't humiliate me, okay? This book should go directly to Ancestor Linglan."
Although he also covets Taoist books, he is still self-aware.
"No!" Ancestor Luo He said sternly, "In the current situation, Linglan is actually separated. As an ancestor, I have to keep a bowl of water flat and let the Taoist weapon spirit choose by himself, so as to avoid me suffering in the future.
Mouth and tongue.”
Okay~
Our ancestors insist on procedural justice, what can we do?
Ying Jianbai took two steps forward helplessly and stood side by side with Liu Ruolan.
"[Shui Shui], wake up quickly." Patriarch Luo He then released a ray of soul power and awakened the sleeping weapon spirit in the Taoist book.
next moment.
A beautiful girl wearing an aqua blue skirt emerged from the Tianshui Taoist book with a swish, blinking her eyes and looking at Patriarch Luohe with surprise on her face.
"Ah, Master, are you still alive?"
"How many years has it been since you sealed me?"
"You're still alive. But Shuishui, it's time for you to choose your next master." Ancestor Luo He said and pointed out Liu Ruolan and Ying Jianbai to her, "These two children, both
They are my blood descendants, you choose one according to your own heart."
Then, Liu Ruolan and Ying Jianbai each revealed their own auras.
"Eh? You, you, you... you are of the standard Yuanshui bloodline, and you are already a Taoist girl? What is your name?" The Taoist weapon spirit "Shui Shui" opened her eyes wide at once, and her delicate little face was filled with tears.
It's a surprise.
As for the "scumbag" next to her, whose bloodline qualifications were only at the level of Saint Son C, she felt it was superfluous even to look at him.
"Liu Ruolan, Taoist woman, Ding, looks like a middle-to-high-level Taoist girl, but she is still far away from C." Liu Ruolan replied calmly.
"Sister Ruolan, please take care of me in the future." Tianshui Daoshu happily threw himself into Liu Ruolan's arms, looking like he was in love with her.
Although Ying Jianbai clearly knew this was the result, it could be seen that Qi Ling didn't even look at him, and he still felt sour in his heart.
Dao Shu, Dao Shu, why don't you take a look at me?
After all, I am also a third-level Saint Son. I was also a famous figure on the list of heroes back then. I was still quite capable in the divine capital of Luojing. How did I end up in this situation?
Holy King Tianzhu patted his shoulder comfortingly.
The old man and the young man looked at each other, and both sighed. That's all. Who inherits the Taoist book and does not inherit it? After all, it is the blood of the Ying family.
Holy King Tianzhu has already decided that when he returns to Luojing, he will immediately invite Ancestor Linglan to the ancestral hall to formally recognize his ancestor and return to the clan.
To prevent long nights and many dreams.
Liu Ruolan didn't waste any time and immediately inherited the Taoist book under the protection of Taoist Master Taichu and Taoist Tianyan.
As the divine soul was imprinted into the Taoist book, the essence of heaven and earth accumulated in the Taoist book for many years also poured into Liu Ruolan's body, starting a new round of marrow cleansing and hair removal.
Many days later, when the marrow cleansing and hair removal were completed, her bloodline qualifications naturally soared again, reaching the level of a Taoist woman above the third level, close to the second level.
There is no way around this. Her current bloodline qualifications are too high, and the effect of Taoist scriptures on cleansing marrow and cutting hair is naturally much weaker.
But even so, the bloodline qualifications of a female second-level prostitute are already extremely terrifying.
"Okay, okay!" Seeing this scene, Taichu Taoist Master was greatly relieved, and the smile couldn't help overflowing from his eyes, "Senior sister can have such a bloodline talent after inheriting the Taoist book, even if she is placed in the Immortal League
The period is also extremely strong. The most important thing is that our Dongxia Divine Continent has finally gathered four Taoist books! In the future, we no longer have to rely solely on Xuanyuan’s trump card to support our success!"
The reason why the trump card is a trump card is naturally to intimidate. No matter how powerful it is, it will be gone once used. Not to mention, the Xuanyuan family's trump card is extremely special. Unless Dongxia is in danger of being destroyed, she will never use it.
Easy to use.
However, Taoist scriptures can be passed down from generation to generation.
Compared with trump cards, Taoist books are the real foundation of Dongxia Shenzhou.
Moreover, compared to others, Taoist Master Taichu's mood was more complicated.
Back then, senior Linglan disappeared unexpectedly, and Tao Shu asked him to find out. This matter has always been a hurdle in his heart, and he can't get over it or solve it.
But now, seeing that Senior Linglan has obtained her own inheritance of Taoism, the stone in his heart has finally fallen away, his mood has also relaxed, and his whole thoughts have become clearer.
He believed that with Senior Sister Linglan's qualifications and temperament, her future cultivation would never stop at the early stage of Hunyuan Realm, and her future achievements would definitely be much higher than his own.
Unknowingly, he seemed to have seen the scene of Senior Sister Ling Lan being promoted to the Hunyuan Realm and dominating the four divine continents.
