At this time, someone finally moved.
I saw a huge shuttle suspended in the air, and more than thirty people flew out one after another. Each of them was wearing the same style of Wuwu hiding robes embroidered with special marks, covering their faces. Appearance and cultivation aura.
After flying out of the shuttle, these people were actually divided into three groups. Then each group of people was absorbed into the Zifu space between the eyebrows by a white light emitted from the eyebrows of the leader.
"Three Void Refining Periods!" Luo Xingchen sent a message to Qu Wuming.
"Well, it should be just a mid-level sect." Qu Wuming also said in a voice transmission.
I saw the three cultivators in the Void Refining Stage standing in a triangle, watching others in the distance while slowly descending to the top of the lake. After a while, they each took out a shining golden jade talisman, muttered something in their mouths, and then threw the golden jade talisman downwards.
When those jade talismans touched the black, crystal-like mirror-like surface of the lake, they suddenly made a soft bang and turned into a golden vortex about five feet in diameter, deeply embedded in the lake.
The golden vortex was spinning faster and deeper, and the breath was extending downward for an unknown distance. Looking from a distance, it looked like golden passages leading to nowhere.
After a while, the golden vortex gradually stopped rotating, the entire passage shook slightly, and countless tiny golden light spots lit up on the passage walls, like stars.
At this time, the three cultivators in the Void Refining Stage looked at each other, and then each turned into a stream of light, slipped into the golden passage under their feet, and disappeared.
After about ten breaths, the golden passage gradually collapsed and disappeared, and the surface of the lake was still as smooth as a mirror, as if what just happened was just everyone's illusion.
"Let's go too!" Luo Xingchen put away the flying carpet under his feet, and he and Qu Wuming used the air escape technique to slowly reach the top of the lake.
"Be careful after entering!" Luo Xingchen warned again before using his boundary-breaking talisman.
"Uncle Luo, please don't worry! I will be careful!" Qu Wuming hugged Luo Xingchen and said via voice transmission, "Uncle Luo, take care! See you soon!"
"Take care of yourself!"
The two of them had finished saying goodbye and each activated their own boundary-breaking talisman. Qu Wuming felt that the mana in his body surged into the boundary-breaking talisman, consuming nearly 10% of his mana. The boundary-breaking talisman was The bang turned into a golden vortex, extending towards the other side of the lake...
Qu Wuming cursed secretly, wondering why this boundary-breaking talisman consumes so much mana? If only people in the Void Refining Stage can withstand its consumption, wouldn't it be very dangerous when they enter the underworld?
Qu Wuming then thought that the person who gave him this boundary-breaking talisman was Lu Ling of the Sky Poison Sect—that man's magic power seemed not as powerful as his own. Since he was qualified to get this boundary-breaking talisman, naturally, This means that his mana is enough to support this boundary-breaking talisman, and there is still some leftover power that can be used to protect himself when it is just cracked.
Although he was also thinking wildly in his mind, Qu Wuming did not dare to relax at all. There was always a stream of mana that turned into a torrent and poured into the boundary-breaking talisman. The other side closely followed the tip of the vortex that broke through the boundary and kept moving forward. flyby.
I don't know how long he had been flying away, but just when Qu Wuming's body had consumed nearly 40% of his mana, the front of the golden vortex in front of him finally stopped suddenly, and then suddenly turned into the boundary-breaking talisman again with a bang, and flew back. It fell into Qu Wuming's hand, and the golden passage turned into little golden light and disappeared.
When the golden light channel began to collapse, Qu Wuming felt a strange aura rush in instantly. In an instant, all the remaining spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the channel was dispersed. Qu Wuming hurriedly cast spells, instantly closing all the pores on his body. At the same time, I held my breath.
In extreme circumstances, cultivators can give up breathing air and instead rely on inner breath to survive - in fact, they consume their own mana to replace breathing.
According to rumors, the "spiritual energy" contained in the air of the Underworld is completely different from that of the Shifang Realm. Not only does it absorb the spiritual energy here for cultivation, but even breathing the air here for too long will gradually change the physique of the cultivator, and eventually Become a creature that is difficult to leave the underworld - not because you don't want to leave, but because it is not only the body that has been changed, but also the mind. Once transformed into a creature from the underworld, the original memory and spiritual consciousness will be changed, and it may become a strange creature that even the mother cannot recognize. It only knows how to kill and does not know how to practice. How could such a creature think about leaving the underworld?
At the auction at the Xianghezhai branch in Xueyu City, the Duyou cloak was specially used to isolate the special aura of the underworld from corroding the monks. It was a pity that the Duyou cloak was snatched up by others at a high price. He went there but was not photographed by Qu Wuming.
Fortunately, Qu Wuming was not completely unprepared.
At this time, an object was seen flying out of Qu Wuming's storage ring. Suddenly, it flew around Qu Wuming. Then it transformed into a tight black suit and was put on Qu Wuming's body, making Qu Wuming's burly and strong body. The huge figure is wrapped in a clear view.
On the head, there is a soft hood that fits tightly against the head, and the eyes are inlaid with a clear crystal about an inch high and several inches long. Through that layer of crystal, you can clearly see the world around you without blocking your view at all.
This set of equipment was later bought by Qu Wuming at a high price when he returned to Xianghe Zhai based on the news that Xianghe Zhai passed to all the Supreme members.
After all, there is only one piece of the Duyou Cloak that is auctioned for a high price, but there can be many pieces of this kind of tights with slightly inferior functions.
Xianghezhai's business experience has always been the best in the Eastern Continent.
It is said that in terms of isolating the breath of the underworld, this kind of tights is almost the same as the Duyou cloak, but it does not have the camouflage function of the Duyou cloak that can transform into the appearance of a creature in the underworld.
On the helmet, there is a cylindrical protrusion at the mouth and nose, through which one can breathe freely.
It is said that there is a complex magic circle engraved inside, which can separate the netherworld aura from the underworld, leaving only air that is harmless to those who practice Taoism.
By the time Qu Wuming put on the equipment, the golden cross-border passage had completely collapsed and disappeared.
Through the crystal eye mask, Qu Wuming finally saw the rumored underworld with his own eyes.
Above the sky, there is a huge red sun, hanging quietly at the top of the sky.
Looking from a distance, its size is probably a hundred times as large as the sun in the ten directions, but the light it casts does not seem to have much temperature, and the dark red sunlight is not dazzling at all, just look directly at it with the naked eye. The sun doesn't cause any discomfort.
There are no clouds in the sky. It should be a cloudless and good weather, but it has a gray feeling. It seems that the air here is filled with fine dust that is difficult to see with the naked eye, which blocks the sunlight. Some temperatures also block people's sight.
The place where Qu Wuming was teleported was not the ground, but the sky about a hundred feet away from the ground.
Looking down, there is a rolling low mountain range at our feet.
There seemed to be traces of many birds and beasts in the mountains, and there were faint roars and roars.
Looking from a high altitude, we can vaguely see several winding rivers running between the mountain peaks. We don't know where their water sources are, and we can't see where they eventually go.
Qu Wuming quickly recalled the "Encyclopedia of Creatures of the Underworld" he bought at the auction in his mind, while carefully looking at the terrain under his feet.
Indeed, Qu Wuming did not take a picture of the map of the underworld carefully crafted by Xianghe Zhai. It was indeed a pity for Qu Wuming who had never been to this place.
However, what surprised Qu Wuming was that the "Encyclopedia of Creatures of the Underworld", which almost no one competed with him for, introduced the appearance and characteristics of the known creatures in the Underworld. The environment these creatures are accustomed to living in, even the general geographical location.
Under the joint deliberation of Qu Wuming, Qu Wushe, and Sword Spirit Xiao Yuan—of course, Qu Siqiu had been thinking seriously beside him during the deliberation, but never spoke—how much knowledge was there about the geographical environment of the Underworld. There are some speculations.
At least it's not a black eye.
Qu Wuming slowly lowered his escape light, reaching a height of about tens of feet away from a mountain peak, and then stopped. When he used the power of his spiritual consciousness to explore the dark woods at the foot of the mountain, he soon found a group of fat beasts in the dense forest that were covered with sharp spikes and had a body shape similar to wild boars.
"Swordfish!" The description of this creature in "The Encyclopedia of Creatures of the Underworld" flashed through Qu Wuming's mind, "It looks like a wild boar, with thorns like a long sword. The sword body is hollow, with sharp barbs, and venom inside. After hitting the enemy, the spikes will firmly hook the enemy's body and fall off from the swordfish. Then the venom will be automatically injected into the enemy's body. After being hit, the body will be paralyzed quickly, and the muscle tissue will be corroded into a yellow liquid. The swordfish So I make a living by sucking this liquid..."
The most critical information is not the physical appearance and living habits of the swordfish, but the few sentences that follow - sworddolphins mainly live in the branch basins of the Styx River, and they mainly live in groups.
At this time, I saw the sword dolphin, and I had seen several rushing rivers before, so this area was naturally the branch of the Styx in the Underworld.
"This is a branch of the Styx River. If you go upstream along that river, you can reach the Styx River, the largest known river in the Underworld." Qu Wuming thought silently in his heart, and an inferred map was already there. It gradually emerged in my mind, "Somewhere in the upper reaches of the Styx River, there should be a place full of strange rocks, called Gui Ming Yuan. One of the things that the Alchemist Sect asked for was produced in Gui Ming Yuan. Naruhara’s unique thing—soul-nurturing crystal..."
