daytime.
The sky is still dark.
After Pang Jian walked out, he saw directly in front of him a wetland swamp full of moisture.
He looked to his left again.
This direction allowed him to reach the residence arranged for him by Fan Liang, where many casual cultivators gathered and it was also a stronghold established by Dark Ghost in Yunze.
He looked to the right again.
This direction leads deeper into Yunze, where there are many ferocious beasts like one-horned rhinoceros and black and white king pythons.
After hesitating for a moment, he did not choose to go to the crowd gathering place, but went to the right alone.
Jungles, swamps, poisonous miasma, ferocious beasts, these are the environments he is accustomed to.
…
another side.
Sparse wooden houses are scattered here and there.
Dozens of practitioners of varying levels gathered in small groups, talking about the ferocious beasts in Yun Ze.
Meng Qiulan, the new leader of the dark ghost hall, suddenly appeared with his two female disciples. The eyes of the practitioners here suddenly lit up, and they all looked over with malicious eyes.
Meng Qiulan snorted coldly.
Behind her, a thin man with dark skin suddenly appeared, grinning strangely at everyone.
"Ling Qing!"
Seeing the thin man appear, the expressions of those people changed and they quickly retracted their wanton gazes.
They are all casual cultivators who have been active in Yunze for a long time, and there is no sectarian force behind them.
Ling Qing was different. Although they didn't know Ling Qing's true background, they knew there was an organization behind him.
Moreover, Ling Qing is also the actual controller of this stronghold.
Meng Qiulan nodded with satisfaction, and under Ling Qing's arrangement, she arrived at the neatest wooden house.
"Hall Master Meng, that boy only came once, and then disappeared."
After closing the door, Ling Qing bowed and reported, "He said he was going to Yunze for a stroll. In the blink of an eye, half a month passed and he didn't show up again."
Meng Qiulan frowned.
She wanted to take a look at Hong Tai's nephew to see if he could be made into something, but when she heard that he hadn't appeared for a long time, she didn't take it to heart. Instead, she asked: "I heard that people who are similar to Tianyun Those pieces of ground haven’t looked right recently..."
Ling Qing's eyes were horrified and she nodded heavily: "Reporting to the hall master, not many people know about this matter, but we dark ghosts happened to know about it."
He paused for a moment, organizing his words. The horror in his eyes gradually turned into fear, and he said in a deep voice: "The dirty land under the jurisdiction of the Ouyang family has dirty powers from the fifth realm, which is slowly seeping upward."
Meng Qiulan took a deep breath and said solemnly: "The Broken Earth was the most severely affected, but many people died?"
Among the hall masters with many secret ghosts, Meng Qiulan is very popular among the leaders. She rushed to Tianyun Shattered Land this time to find out the authenticity of this matter.
Ling Qing's voice trembled slightly: "Not only did many people die, but very few people in the city could survive in the broken ground infected by the dirty alien power. Those who could survive were said to have turned into terrifying aliens."
"The filthy supernatural power in the fifth realm is completely different from the filthy power in Yunze and other forbidden areas in the fourth realm!"
"It seems that no one from the Ouyang family, the city lords assigned to those Broken Earth cities, and their families can survive!"
Ling Qing licked the corners of her dry mouth and finally said: "The Ouyang family has blocked the news, and the other families may not know about it at the moment. I just hope that the abnormality in that area will not affect the broken ground beneath our feet."
Behind Meng Qiulan, her two female disciples' expressions changed when they heard this.
"It's really strange. When I came here, I heard the leader say that this kind of disaster hasn't happened in many years." Meng Qiulan also shook her head and said bitterly: "The leader asked me to come here because he wanted me to understand the dirty power in the lower world. , why did it suddenly float to the fourth realm?"
…
Among the clouds.
Pang Jian walked alone. From time to time, he would encounter some practitioners who were catching ferocious beasts. Those people would avoid him when they saw him.
Half a month ago, not long after he appeared in Yunze, he killed a group of casual cultivators who had evil intentions.
The "spirit evil" condensed by Luo Hongyan came from those dead casual cultivators.
It was that attack that made all the casual cultivators nearby know that he was Hong Tai's nephew, and Hong Tai had a vicious reputation in Yunze, and no one dared to provoke him after that.
Without a clear purpose, Pang Jian came to a turbid swamp. The Tianling Tower is now buried in the mud at the bottom of the swamp.
After watching for a while and confirming that no one had noticed the White Tower, he continued walking deeper.
As night fell, he came to a strange jungle.
The trees and plants here grow extremely luxuriantly, and the moist air is filled with the scent of vegetation.
He breathed in the smell of vegetation in the air, and suddenly felt a strong desire to practice with the surrounding aura.
Since arriving in Qianli Yunze, he has been practicing with spiritual stones and spiritual jade, because this is the most efficient way.
This was the first time that I had such a sudden idea and had the urge to cultivate through the surrounding environment.
He sat down casually, entered the cultivation state with concentration, and silently operated the "Hutian Qi Nourishing Technique".
Suddenly, he remembered the dark giant anaconda and wanted to visit it.
But thinking that last time, his mind was so exhausted that he fell asleep directly, so he forcibly restrained his desire to peek into the fifth world.
He eliminated all thoughts of prying from his mind and used the "Hu Tian Qi Nourishing Technique" to absorb the miscellaneous spiritual energy of heaven and earth. He immediately felt the fresh and natural breath of grass and trees, mixed with some other weird smells, and escaped into the Dantian together with the spiritual energy.
The proportion of spiritual energy is very low.
He learned from Luo Hongyan that as long as it was not pure spiritual energy, any power would be regarded as mixed power.
Of course, there are also some special magic arts, such as "Earth Flame Jue" or "Xuan Yin Jue", which can use mixed forces in a targeted manner to increase combat effectiveness.
"The energy of plants and trees, there should be special techniques that can be used to grow medicinal herbs."
He tried to condense the strongest energy of vegetation around him.
He suddenly felt that as soon as the strands of grass and tree energy he absorbed entered his Dantian spiritual sea, they flowed along the meridians towards the bronze medal.
This feeling was exactly the same as the dark giant anaconda in the bronze medal absorbing the dirty power from his body.
Pang Jian, who was pondering the secret of the bronze medal but never discovered it, immediately cheered up and practiced harder with the "Hu Tian Qi Nourishing Technique".
Time passed like water, and Pang Jian was in a state of selflessness.
He didn't open his eyes until he felt that he had collected almost all the energy from the nearby plants and trees.
He immediately saw that with him as the center, all the trees, flowers and plants within ten feet withered and died!
"call!"
A small green sapling quietly emerged from the bronze door, releasing a jade-like green luster and flying through the void.
Pang Jian was taken aback.
Without thinking too much, he immediately followed the sapling flying out from the bronze medallion, fearing that it would be intercepted by casual cultivators.
It didn't fly long.
The magical little sapling quickly chose another jungle full of vitality and landed in the grass in a playful way.
It instantly took root!
It no longer emits the strange green brilliance and appears ordinary, no different from the nearby vegetation.
Pang Jian, who had been chasing it all the way, might not have known its magic if he hadn't been staring at it.
"First it was the dark giant anaconda, and now it's this strange...vine tree? Could it be that my sudden urge to absorb the energy of plants and trees came from it?"
Pang Jian's thoughts turned.
Suddenly, he felt that this small sapling was slowly absorbing the energy of the nearby vegetation just like he had done before.
This is just like when the dark giant anaconda left the bronze card, it no longer relied on him and could obtain dirty powers from the darkness.
"strangeness……"
Pang Jian tried to close his eyes, and another novel vision immediately emerged in his mind.
He felt like he had become that little sapling. He saw towering ancient trees, and the flowers and plants he saw were astonishingly large.
——But the grass beside him has not yet reached his chest.
"It's the view of the sapling!"
Pang Jian was beyond surprised.
Immediately, the bronze medal on his chest became extremely cold.
Looking down, he found that the bronze plaque was covered with a layer of ice crystals, which looked like the mirror tunnel on the surface of Ulan Lake.
At the same time, another vision suddenly emerged in his mind.
That vision belongs to the dark giant anaconda in the fifth realm.
"call out!"
Suddenly, the ice crystals wrapped in the bronze medal shot a strange light at the ordinary sapling.
After the strange light appeared, Pang Jian and the bronze medal on his chest followed the strange light directly into the sapling!
A sense of pain as if his bones and flesh were being torn apart, and his head was about to explode, instantly enveloped Pang Jian's body.
When he got used to the pain in his body, he was the first to feel the loss of spiritual energy in his body before he opened his eyes.
The spiritual power in the spiritual sea was once again infected by the dirty and strange power, just like the first time he entered the dark alleyway.
But this time the dirty power was much weaker than that in Bagua City, and the speed at which his spiritual power was infected was also quite slow.
He finally opened his eyes.
Immediately, he discovered that he was not staying in Yunze, not next to the saplings, and the sky above his head was not gray.
But the ultimate darkness!
"The fifth realm!"
Pang Jian was shocked.
The next moment, he saw a dark giant anaconda not far away, shaking its olive-green scales and eating an unknown ferocious beast.
The new dark giant anaconda from the Bronze Medal noticed his presence and looked up at him blankly.
Panicked, Pang Jian turned around and looked around.
Then he discovered that he was not in Bagua City, but in the mountains that he had seen through the vision of the dark giant anaconda from the top of the Tongtian Tribulation Pillar.
Continuing to turn around and stare, he saw the magnificent stone pillar that, like its name, led to the depths of the sky.
All the mountains around him are nowhere near as high as the sky-reaching Tribulation Pillar.
Looking from the bottom up, you can't see the top, you can't see the huge stone pillars of the Bagua City, standing in the empty wasteland of the fifth realm, as if suppressing all living beings for thousands of years.
When countless creatures from the fifth realm tried to climb to the upper realm with the help of the Heaven-reaching Tribulation Pillar, they all turned into corpses and skeletons.
This new-born dark giant anaconda has returned to the land of the fifth realm from the Bagua City at the top of the Heavenly Tribulation Pillar!
It also crossed over the vast wasteland scattered with endless corpses and bones, and came to the mountains containing evil vitality, where it strengthened itself by hunting down the ferocious beasts of the fifth realm.
"Well!"
Pang Jian screamed.
Deep in the dark sky, sparse "raindrops" suddenly began to fall. When one drop of "rain" fell with a "bang" and was shattered into pieces, he realized that it was a corpse.
That was a person just like him, and he was also a practitioner!
Heaven.
The sparse "raindrops" are still falling, scattering on all parts of the fifth realm.
Pang Jian took a deep breath, knowing that there was an unimaginable disaster happening in the world above.
That was the fourth realm from whence he came.
