Jiang Daoqi opened his lovely big eyes and asked doubtfully: "Really? But why doesn't mother take me with you?"
Cheng Ling sighed secretly and said, "The road back to heaven is very long. Mother is afraid that Dao Qi won't be able to walk, so she has to go by herself. When you grow up, you can go find her by yourself."
Jiang Daoqi seemed to understand, but finally settled down temporarily. Xie Feng lowered his head and said to Cheng Ling: "Thank you!" He has been lonely since he was a child, and he really doesn't know how to answer Jiang Daoqi's question!"
Cheng Ling's eyes dimmed and she said, "I tried my best, but it's a pity that Yun'er was caught by Zhong Changsheng...!"
"I understand that he deserved it. He died due to the self-destruction of the two demon kings. My master's revenge has finally been avenged!"
Cheng Ling nodded briefly and said no more. As soon as his consciousness swept away, more and more sea water fell from the sky, reaching the height of his calves. Presumably, the location of this place must be under the seabed. The strange thing is that there is no feeling of stuffiness here.
The cave under the hall was pitch black, and the eyes could not see at all, so they could only rely on their spiritual sense to sense their location.
"Hua Hua" moved his steps slightly and walked in a random direction, and everyone followed. As we walked forward, we felt that the water level was getting higher and higher, and the terrain was gradually going downwards. The place where we were originally looked like a high ground.
Not only that, the further you go, the stronger the demonic energy you feel becomes stronger. In half an hour, the water level reached the chest, and the sound of water falling from the sky gradually disappeared.
Qinghuang came to Cheng Ling and asked, "Fellow Daoist Cheng, have we left the Demon Blood Continent?"
Cheng Ling said: "We don't know yet, but when we see the sea water, we should be outside the island!"
Yuankong City finally let go of the entanglements in his heart. Zhong Changsheng and the four demon generals were dead. With his current combat power, he was no match for Cheng Ling and others. He might as well follow closely like Qinghuang, or really leave.
He then asked: "Didn't you say you found a way out before? Why don't you know where this place is?"
Cheng Ling explained: "I found the withered bones in the hall before, and I felt something was wrong. The withered bones appeared too abruptly, and the year seemed to have passed a long time, so I kept an eye out, and sure enough, there was something wrong with the withered bones. A trace of the fluctuation of the forbidden life and death was found on the arm."
"In the hall, there was only a stone table and the withered bones. Therefore, I speculated that there must be something fishy. Unexpectedly, Zhong Changsheng and the four demon generals took the opportunity to attack. These people had ulterior motives before and only thought about themselves. I can’t say for profit, I can only kill them with ruthless hands.”
"Otherwise, every time they go to a key point, they will question where they still have the energy to find a way out. If the people's hearts are scattered, it will be difficult to lead the team. Since they don't believe me and want to instigate you, then you can't blame me! "
These few insinuations made Yuan Kongcheng speechless. Now, I still keep you. If you cause trouble for me again, I will destroy you in a matter of minutes!
He explained as he continued to move forward. Gradually, I felt a slight tremor on the ground, and my entire body entered the sea water. Just as soon as I entered, I felt a huge water pressure. This pressure was even worse than the noise caused by the previous self-destruction!
In a hurry, without taking any precautions, the strong water pressure hit his chest like a heavy hammer, and a mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out. He quickly stopped and sent a message to everyone: "Everyone, be careful. The water pressure here is very strong. We may really be at the bottom of the sea."
After saying that, he slowly retreated. When everyone heard this, they also backed away like him. After a while, he returned to the original ground. But at this moment, the water pouring in from above became more and more
The more you get, the more you stand, and your knees are still submerged even when you stand at the highest point.
Cheng Ling silently calculated that based on the distance through the passage, it was now at least 100,000 meters from the top. Are they now one hundred thousand meters under the sea? One can imagine how much pressure there is in the water. The place we are now seems to be an independent space in the sea water, and the heavy water pressure cannot affect it.
But if the sea water pours back and fills the entire space, the water pressure here will not be the same as outside. His mind raced, trying desperately to think of countermeasures. After a moment, he suddenly remembered the ring withered bones in the hall.
With a thought in his heart, he called Liu Qingyan, Jian Yinghao and others to his side and asked them to protect him. After laying down a few more hidden restrictions, he took out the ring and examined it.
The seal on the ring collapsed at the first touch. The owner was dead and had no resistance at all. Cheng Ling easily erased the brand of divine consciousness on it and dripped blood onto the ring. The ring belonged to him.
When the spiritual consciousness enters it, the space inside the ring is very huge, similar to the space inside the best ring. There were very few things inside. When his spiritual consciousness swept away, he only saw a few books and an old leather object, and there was nothing else.
Cheng Ling was secretly surprised. It was a bit unbelievable that a monk with a top-grade ring only had such a small amount of treasure. As soon as his consciousness moved, the meteor fire came to his palm. After several years of recovery, it turned back to deep purple again.
The fire light was shining, and I took out the leather object and took a look. I saw that it was covered with patterns. On the picture, there were undulating curves all around. There were only a few places with some special markings, but the style of the marks was very vague. It looks like a map of a certain area, but it doesn't seem like it.
Cheng Ling put aside the leather objects and took out some of the books to read. There were three books in total. He opened the first one and after just a few glances, he understood that what was recorded in it was the experience of formations. He had encountered several formations on the island or the Demonic Blood Continent.
He was very happy. With this formation knowledge, he could systematically regulate his formation level, and perhaps he could break through to the realm of a ninth-level formation master. However, the situation in front of us is obviously not suitable for in-depth study, so we can only put it aside temporarily.
The second book contained the forbidden book of life and death. Cheng Ling took a few glances at it and put it away. The most important thing right now is to get out of here first.
Cheng Ling flipped through the third book and found that it was a notebook, which recorded the life of the owner of the ring. It turned out that the owner of the ring turned out to be a spiritual formation master whose level of formation far exceeded this life star.
His name is Haochen, and he comes from the Xuanmen on Tianji Star in the Xuanwu Star Territory. Most of the monks in this sect delve into some mysterious methods, such as restraint, formation, fortune telling, numerology, etc. Although the sect's combat power is not strong, few people dare to provoke them.
Once, Haochen and several fellow disciples went out for training. Unexpectedly, they accidentally broke into a forbidden area with strong demonic aura and met a very powerful demonic monk. Several fellow disciples were killed, but the monk did not. Killing him just puts a ban on him.
Although Haochen's restraint level is also very high, he still cannot escape in the face of overwhelming strength. Along the way, he was led by the demonic monk and passed through an unknown number of star realms. Many years later, he was brought here.
After the monk brought him over, he asked him to set up a formation for him. But Haochen clearly felt that the Heavenly Dao here was too different from the Xuanwu Starfield, and they were not on the same level at all. It was obvious that this should be the legendary mortal world.
He then said: "If we set up a spiritual formation, I am afraid that the entire life star will not be able to bear it. I can only set up a top-level ninth-grade mortal formation."
After hearing this, the monk agreed with his idea.
, and asked him to set up a ninth-grade peak mortal formation. Not only that, they also put forward many requests, hoping to add some settings for absorbing vitality and blood essence into the formation.
Haochen instinctively sensed something was wrong, but unfortunately he couldn't resist. He found an inaccessible location with many islands in the entire Canglang Sea area, and set up a hidden formation. It's a pity that the materials on his body are all materials for setting up spiritual formations, and there are no materials for mortal formations at all.
The monk was furious, thinking that Haochen didn't want to set up the formation and wanted to kill him. Haochen had no choice but to do some experiments himself using the materials of the spiritual formation. The result was just as he said, as soon as the formation was set up, the entire space began to collapse.
The heavenly path on the life star where Canglan Continent is located cannot withstand the impact of the spiritual formation at all. In desperation, the magic monk could only take him out to search for materials. Along the way, the monk kept plundering monster beasts and human monks on the mainland.
"He has a tower-shaped space magic weapon, which can actually absorb living beings. Along the way, I don't know how many living beings were captured by him. It is a catastrophe to the Canglan Continent!"
Haochen recorded in his handbook that the monk kept on going and robbed many monsters and monks. After more than ten years, he finally gathered all the materials he requested. For this reason, they returned to the island and started setting up the formation!
Haochen set up a concealment formation on the periphery, but he also kept a careful eye on it and expanded the formation's coverage to the limit. Correspondingly, the difficulty of breaking the formation at each point was greatly reduced. It's just that the demonic monk wasn't around at the time, or maybe he wasn't proficient in combat, so he never noticed it.
But a few years later, the monk came back. Specifically pointing to one of the largest islands, he asked him to set up many formations, eventually connecting all the islands within the formation. There are corresponding entrances and exits between each island. Every thousand years, these entrances and exits will be opened. Attracting monsters and human monks from other islands, they finally came to this island.
Cheng Ling took a rough look at the pattern in the manuscript. According to the geographical area marked on it, it was a map of the Demonic Blood Continent. His heart was shaking. Could it be that the legendary thousand-year reincarnation period is to attract the strong men from various islands to gather in the Demon Blood Continent, and then be led to other places from the Demon Blood Continent?
After pondering for a while, he couldn't think of the reason for a moment, so he continued to look. Haochen continued to write: Because the demon monk was always by his side, he could not go too far. He could only set the formations in the Demon Blood Continent to the level of seventh or eighth-grade mortal formations. Only the final killing formation was set to the early stage of ninth level!
After reading it, the demonic monk was very satisfied, but he didn't fully believe it. He personally took action, selected an area in the north of the mainland, filled it with very strong demonic energy, and asked Haochen to set up a ban so that the demonic energy in it would not dissipate for a long time!
"I told him that no one could break such a formation in this life star, but he just didn't believe it and asked me to join the ban. In desperation, I could only take action on the life and death ban. I hope that someone will do it in the future. , can follow the life and death taboo left by him, and finally crack the formation here, leaving a glimmer of hope for the island's sentient beings!"
The lines in Haochen's words were full of pity and hope for the creatures on the island. Cheng Ling read it and was deeply moved. No wonder he could break through the formation all the way with his level of formation. It turned out that the other party did it intentionally. Such a person The spiritual formation master has to be admired!
But there is still a doubt in my heart, what on earth does that mysterious demonic monk want to do? He robbed so many monsters and humans, and provided them with rich spiritual energy and countless treasures of heaven and earth, just to lure them all to the Demon Blood Continent for the so-called thousand-year reincarnation.
What does this thousand-year cycle of reincarnation mean?
