In the camp, Shi Jiu was roasting meat while thinking about his insights and gains in the past few days.
"Is it really because my own cultivation level is too low that I can no longer comprehend the laws of darkness?"
Shi Jiu had never had such an experience before, and had never heard Senior Sword Emperor mention it. Now he was really confused when he encountered it.
"No matter what, I will go to meditate for another day tomorrow. If there is still no effect, then go back and stop wasting time here." Shi Jiu secretly made up his mind.
The next day, he came to the central edge of the Great Crossing Crack again. This was also the deepest place he could reach so far. Going any further, he would not be able to withstand the erosion of the dark will.
Shi Jiu sat cross-legged at the foot of the cliff and began to meditate quietly.
The central area of the large cross-cutting crack is gray all day long, and everything here is dim. Shi Jiu here is like a stone statue covered with a layer of dust, standing silently in the large crack. If there are outsiders coming from a distance Looking at it, there must be no trace of Shi Jiu, because his figure is almost integrated into the depths of the big crack.
Several hours passed, and Shi Jiu's understanding made no progress. He had no choice but to open his eyes.
"It seems that it may have something to do with my low cultivation level. It is useless to continue like this. It's time to leave here." Shi Jiu murmured to himself.
Just when he was about to get up, several roars of beasts came from the depths of the large crack. The roars were full of violent emotions, and there were faint signs of shaking on the ground.
"Oops, there's a beast coming from inside!" Shi Jiu couldn't help being shocked.
From these beast roars, Shi Jiu felt great pressure.
To be able to survive in the depths of the large cross-cutting crack, the owner of that roar must be of a high level, at least higher than his own cultivation level, and certainly more than one level higher.
Shi Jiu immediately took out his flying wings and wanted to fly away from here.
At this time, the shaking of the earth became more obvious, and the roar became louder and more powerful.
Just when he flew into the air, a large group of ever-changing black shadows appeared in the deep fog. Shi Jiu looked back subconsciously and was shocked. The large group of black shadows was not an object but an object. two.
"Golden violent bear, violent ape!"
It turned out to be these two violent underworld beasts!
These two huge underworld beasts were wrestling with each other at the moment.
This gold-painted bear is three stories tall and even bigger than the one Shi Jiu met in Hengduan Forest. At this moment, four of the six golden textures on its chest have lit up. It stands and waves its thick front. The palm kept slapping the violent ape on the opposite side.
"It turned out to be a sixth-level gold-painted violent bear!" When Shi Jiu saw the six golden textures on the opponent's chest clearly, he took a deep breath of cold air.
The sixth-level gold-painted violent bear is equivalent to the spiritual wisdom realm of human monks, but if measured in terms of combat power, it is comparable to the strong human race of Tianchong realm! There is no way, the physical strength of the underworld beast is inherently stronger than that of the human race, let alone this kind of gold-painted violent bear that is famous for its violence.
Although Shi Jiu has not personally tested it, he believes that ordinary Tianchong realm experts will never be able to break through the physical defense of the gold-painted violent bear in front of him.
At this time, the gold-painted violent bear has gone crazy, and the golden texture on its chest has also lit up four times. This shows that its opponent, the violent ape, is definitely not weak. It's just that the violent ape in front of him is different from what Shi Jiu has seen before. Not only is it larger in size, but the whole body is muscular, the double red ape eyes reveal cruelty and bloodthirsty, especially on its forehead. Shi Jiu can see it faintly. The word "king" comes up.
"This, isn't this a violent ape but a powerful king ape?" Shi Jiu couldn't help but lost his voice.
That's right, this is not a violent ape but a powerful king ape with stronger bloodline. Just hearing the name will tell you that it is extraordinary.
The Great King Ape is not only born with infinite strength, but the blood of the ancient ancestors contained in its blood is even stronger. If there is enough opportunity, there is a high probability that it will enter the soul realm. Therefore, in a certain aspect, the Powerful King Ape is equivalent to the top of the underworld. noble.
Now these two underworld beasts, who have sixth level but can exert super high combat power, are fighting together. This scene is quite shocking.
Not only did the ground tremble wherever they went, but their powerful blows also caused the cliffs on both sides to continuously drop a large number of rocks. The depths of the originally deep and dark cracks became much clearer now.
At this moment, Shi Jiu was not in the mood to enjoy the battle between the two underworld beasts. He did not want to be affected by the other party's battle. He immediately flapped his wings and wanted to fly away, but a large number of rocks continued to fall from the sky above, causing him to He had to dodge awkwardly.
Perhaps it was his panicked flying that disgusted the two underworld beasts. Suddenly, the powerful king ape grabbed a stone that fell from above and threw it hard at Shi Jiu, who was avoiding the stone above.
Even though Shi Jiu had activated his consciousness and noticed the incoming stone, the speed of the stone was too fast and it still hit Shi Jiu who could not avoid it. The stone shattered the flying wings on Shi Jiu's back, and both of them shattered into pieces, but the strong force still made Shi Jiu spit out a mouthful of blood.
Shi Jiu, who had lost his flying wings, was knocked flying a long distance by this force, and then hit the ground, splashing dust all over the ground, and he fainted at the same time.
The two beasts of the underworld, the golden tyrant bear and the powerful king ape, were still fighting together, and it was not interrupted because Shi Jiu was hit. Perhaps in their eyes, this was just a trivial matter, and Shi Jiu was like a fly beside them. Flying to annoy them, just kill them easily.
As the two dark beasts continued to fight and left outside the large crack, they soon arrived at the place where Shi Jiu fell.
Suddenly, the golden bear picked up Shi Jiu on the ground and threw it to the powerful king ape. The unconscious Shi Jiu let the gold bear throw it, and then the powerful king directly backhand the flying stone. Jiu flew away again, and Shi Jiu shot towards the depths of the big crack like an arrow until he completely disappeared into the dark environment of the big crack.
The battle between the two underworld beasts continued, and it didn't take long before they emerged from the large crack and disappeared into the forest in the distance.
With the entrance of the two underworld beasts, the previous tranquility was restored in the big crack, with nothing else except the whistling wind.
In the second half of the night, drops of water falling from the stone wall continued to drip on the face of Shi Jiu, who had been unconscious for a long time. Slowly, Shi Jiu's fingers moved, and then his eyes slowly opened.
After another five minutes passed, Shi Jiu murmured: "Where is this?...Ah, it hurts so much!"
Shi Jiu tried to get up, but the pain all over his body prevented him from getting up at all. He could only lie on the ground, complaining about the pain and cursing.
"Damn the gold-painting bear, the powerful king ape, why do you want to involve me in the fight? It hurts me to death! Next time you meet me, I will peel off your skin and bones!" Shi Jiu said angrily.
This time it was really an unforeseen disaster. He provoked whomever, and unexpectedly encountered those two unreasonable beasts of the underworld. Fortunately, Shi Jiu often practiced the Beiming Breathing Technique. Now his physical strength was far beyond that of monks on the same level, and was even incomparable. It was a poor soul monk who saved his life.
"Golden Brutal Bear, I will make your four bear paws into double Snow Bear Hunting Bears and a Palm of Heaven and Earth! And you, the Great Powerful King Ape, I will make your ape head into Monkey King Stewed Tiger Shark , I also want to taste the golden-eyed monkey brain!" Shi Jiu couldn't help but said angrily again.
The pain all over his body was unbearable for Shi Jiu. In order to reduce the pain, Shi Jiu unconsciously practiced the Beiming breathing method.
As the Beiming Breathing Technique progressed, Shi Jiu's whole body began to rise and fall rhythmically. The dark energy around him gathered into several air pillars and rushed towards Shi Jiu's body. At the moment of contact, he was hit by the black spoon jade on his chest. The fluorescence emitted was blocked for a moment, and after part of the special substance was eliminated, it entered his body.
Half an hour later, the pain on Shi Jiu's body weakened a lot, and then he ended the breathing method and slowly stood up.
"I didn't expect Beiming Breathing Method to have the benefit of treating injuries and relieving pain. It's really amazing!" At this moment, Shi Jiu had a deeper understanding of Beiming Breathing Method, and at the same time he loved it even more.
Shi Jiu used his spiritual consciousness to look inside his body.
"Fortunately, just a few ribs were broken and the organs were not damaged." Shi Jiu breathed out.
"It seems like it will take some time to recuperate."
Only then did he have time to take a good look at the current environment.
There is another crack here, but it is much smaller than the previous big crack. The distance between the cliffs on both sides is only two or three meters, and there are all kinds of gravel under the feet.
"It seems that this is probably a small crack deep in the big crack. If you want to leave here, you can only climb up."
But Shi Jiu's whole body was still in pain and he couldn't exert force. Although Beiming's breathing method repaired some injuries and reduced some pain, the broken ribs limited his movement.
"We can't climb up for now, so we can only walk slowly forward along this crack, hoping to find a gentle slope to climb to it."
After walking for a few minutes, Shi Jiu felt the pain intensify. He immediately stopped and sat down to rest. Then he took out some healing elixirs from the storage ring and drank them.
"Fortunately, I purchased some necessary elixirs from Fengbaozhai, otherwise the recovery of this injury would have to be delayed for at least a few months." Shi Jiu secretly rejoiced.
Sure enough, an hour after taking the elixir, Shi Jiu felt that the pain in his body had been relieved a lot, and there was a faint feeling of warmth coming from his broken ribs, which not only made him happy.
The elixir was working and was repairing his broken ribs.
Shi Jiu estimated that it would not take long, and with his daily practice of Beiming Breathing Technique, he would be back to normal in ten days and a half at most.
Next, he stopped walking forward, took a good rest first, and then continued moving forward when he had enough energy.
At the same time, Manager Wu rode the Chitian carriage to the camp not far from the Hengduan Great Crack again.
"Huh? Has the camp changed?" Looking at the somewhat blurred camp, Manager Wu couldn't help but frowned.
This time he was entrusted by Jin Yuner to take Shi Jiu out of here. It has been almost eight or nine days since I left last time, so the other party must have almost understood it.
It's just that the camp in front of you has obviously changed. If you don't look carefully, you may ignore it or even miss it.
Manager Wu carefully circled the camp several times, and then he discovered the formations arranged around the camp.
"I didn't expect him to be able to arrange formations. What a geek!" Manager Wu was secretly surprised.
After walking into the camp, no trace of Shi Jiu was found.
"Is he still meditating in the big crack now? He dares to stay there at night. How brave he is! Alas, I can only go there after dawn to have a look." Manager Wu shook his head. Shi Jiu could not be seen in the camp. The most likely thing left is still in the big crack.
The next day, Manager Wu walked alone in front of the big crack, and then stopped less than a mile away from the big crack. If he went any further, he could no longer bear the erosion of the dark atmosphere here.
"Master Shi, are you in there?" Manager Wu shouted in the direction of the big crack.
no respond.
Then he called more than ten times in a row, but still no response.
"It's strange. Could it be that it's too far away to hear?" Manager Wu was a little confused, "Maybe, then we can only wait."
One day passed, and there was still no sign of Shi Jiu. In desperation, Manager Wu could only leave a line of words where he stayed, and then returned to the camp.
Two days passed and there was still no sign of Shi Jiu. At this time, Manager Wu had a bad premonition.
"Is something going to happen?" Manager Wu asked worriedly.
On the third day, there was still no sign of Shi Jiu. Manager Wu decided not to wait any longer, so after leaving some supplies and a letter in the camp, he got on the Chitian carriage and rushed to Lanming City. Immediately report the situation here to Miss Yan'er.
During the three days that Manager Wu was waiting here, Shi Jiu had been in the small crack deep in the big crack, recovering his body while slowly moving forward and exploring everything here.
