The night is getting deeper.
The valley was filled with cold fog and silent.
Gu Qingshan and Ilia stood in the empty valley, looking around blankly.
The traces of the demons' movements were cut off after arriving in the valley.
But not even a demon was found here.
"It's impossible for a hundred thousand troops to disappear out of thin air." Gu Qingshan said.
"I also think it's impossible. This is the lost world of the gods. Even monsters and ghosts must abide by the laws of divine power. Besides, most of them are formed by the dispersion of entropy ghosts. They must also follow the basic laws of the world. It is impossible for them to appear out of thin air. Or disappear." Ilia said.
The two searched almost the entire valley, but still found no new clues.
Ilia frowned and said, "I have a bad feeling."
"Feel the same."
Gu Qingshan said.
He released his spiritual thoughts and carefully searched every inch of space in the valley.
After all the rocks, trees, and soil were inspected, Gu Qingshan still found nothing.
Ilia said: "It seems that we need to use some special means."
As she spoke, she took out a bronze carved full-length mirror that was as tall as her.
She placed the mirror on the ground and said seriously: "Magic Mirror, please tell me, during the last two hundred breaths, what sounds were heard passing by here?"
There was silence on that mirror.
Ilia frowned slightly and said to herself: "It's troublesome..."
She thought for a while and then asked: "Magic Mirror, please tell me, what sounds have passed here during the last thousand breaths?"
In the mirror, a deep voice sounded: "Searching for the sounds between the last thousand breaths requires paying one thousand seven hundred and thirty-five units of divine power."
Divine power?
Gu Qingshan's heart moved and he looked at Ilia.
I saw Ilia was in a bit of trouble.
Her injury hadn't healed yet, so it would be uneconomical to use her remaining divine power just to find out some unknown information.
If you find any important information, that's a blessing;
If no valuable information is obtained after the inquiry, it will be a big loss.
While she was hesitating, she saw Gu Qingshan walking up and asked, "Do you want divine power? One thousand, seven hundred and thirty-five units will suffice?"
"Yes, it takes 1,735 units of divine power to launch the search for sounds from the past." Magic Mirror said.
"I come."
Gu Qingshan put his hand on the magic mirror.
Ilia knocked his hand off and warned: "You must not. The divine power of all living beings is limited. With your strength, it is simply not enough to reach the upper limit of 1,735 units of divine power. You He will die immediately."
"Don't worry, I am somewhat gifted when it comes to divine power." Gu Qingshan explained.
Ilia was stunned.
Gifted?
Are there such people?
I saw Gu Qingshan put his hand on the magic mirror again.
Magic Mirror asked: "Are you sure you want to pay 1,735 units of divine power? If you die, don't blame me."
"Pay."
Following Gu Qingshan's voice, his soul power value immediately changed on the God of War interface.
"1,000 points of soul power have been deducted from you."
"Your current remaining soul power value is Gu Qingshan took a look and nodded slightly.
After deducting the fraction, the remaining soul power value is a considerable integer.
It was not in vain that he had spent so much energy and painstaking efforts to kill the army of demons and ghosts.
The magic mirror received sufficient divine power and immediately erupted into bursts of noisy sounds.
Gu Qingshan and Ilia stood in front of the magic mirror and listened carefully.
It's obviously a mirror, but I can only hear some sounds...
Gu Qingshan was surprised: "Why is there only sound and no image?"
"The magic mirror is designed to track sounds, which is already very good. It is extremely difficult to view images from the past. Generally, there are very few treasures like this in the world." Ilia explained.
Gu Qingshan nodded.
For some reason, he suddenly remembered the first time he saw Baihua Fairy.
At that time, Baihua Fairy directly launched a magical skill in order to verify whether what he said was true or false.
Searching for spirits in the void.
Relying on Gu Qingshan's waist card as a medium, Baihua Fairy directly saw all of Gu Qingshan's fighting processes.
Even everyone who appears around him can clearly see whether they are alive or dead.
...Gu Qingshan fell into thinking.
Can the treasures from the 900 million-layer world and the strange zone still be no match for the master's magical skill?
Looking back now, every one of Master's magical skills seems not that simple.
Just as Gu Qingshan was thinking, he heard clearly identifiable sounds starting to appear on the magic mirror.
He quickly calmed down and listened carefully.
At the beginning, there were countless running sounds on the magic mirror, mixed with scattered sounds of hitting the ground and restless howling sounds.
After a while, many voices quieted down, except for the howling of demons and ghosts.
At the end, a grand ghost language resounded throughout the magic mirror.
"All troops, begin to evacuate."
After this sound, there was almost no sound anymore.
The two looked at each other in disbelief and continued to wait.
But then, there was no sound from the magic mirror.
It wasn't until Gu Qingshan and Ilia were about to give up that some inaudible voices appeared in the magic mirror.
A female voice was heard sighing faintly.
Such a voice sounded in the silent valley, which surprised both Gu Qingshan and Ilia.
It's obviously a place where an army of demons and ghosts gather, so why are there sighs from human women?
After a few breaths, Yao Yao's singing sounded in the dark valley.
"The journey is unimaginable. I dreamed about it in the past. I dreamed about being next to me, but suddenly I felt that I was in a foreign country..."
The singing gradually faded away.
At this point, all sounds fell silent.
"The universal language of mankind." Ilia judged.
"It's unlikely to be a human being. Those possessed by demons cannot enter this world." Gu Qingshan objected.
"So, who is this woman?" Ilia asked.
Gu Qingshan was speechless.
With only a few words of singing, how can you determine the identity of the other party?
"No, in this case, the information is still not enough." He murmured.
Ilia knelt down, put her hands on the ground, and recited a spell: "Mother of the Earth, with your blessing, give me the peak to witness the light of the sky and the wind and rain!"
After the mantra was chanted, the ground in the entire valley began to shake.
In an instant, green peaks rose straight into the sky.
Towering and stretching mountains were created out of thin air and suddenly stood between heaven and earth.
The place where Ilia and Gu Qingshan stood was already the top of a dangerous peak.
"There are no traps within three thousand meters underground, and there are no buildings or anything like that. It's very clean."
Ilia sighed and said.
Gu Qingshan took out a formation disk and clicked it quickly with both hands.
Taishang's disgusting ghost formation, rise!
Bright yellow spiritual light radiated from the top of the peak towards the surroundings.
Suddenly a short painful groan sounded.
Gu Qingshan and Ilia swayed and immediately appeared at the place where the sound came from.
I saw that it was a huge stone.
"This stone was originally underground, but it appeared on the surface of the mountain because of my magic." Ilia said quickly.
Gu Qingshan slashed his sword.
The stone suddenly fell into pieces, and a dark shadow rolled out of the stone, lying on the ground moaning.
This is a phantom-like monster, with a dark and illusory aura all over its body. Only its head shows an ugly and ferocious appearance.
The underworld soul-eating monster!
"It seems that it is hidden in a stone underground. If your magic circle hadn't made it feel deeper pain, it wouldn't have made a sound." Ilia said.
Gu Qingshan nodded.
When he first arrived in this world, he had seen such a monster.
At that time, the monster was attached to a corpse, and Gu Qingshan used the power of thunder and lightning to trap him.
"An underworld monster, can I communicate with it?" Di Jian couldn't help but asked quietly.
"Wait a minute." Gu Qingshan said.
He walked up, squatted down in front of the monster, and examined it carefully.
I saw that the monster's limbs were broken, its body was seriously injured, and it was almost dead.
Those wounds were caused by the sword wind at first glance - they seemed to have brushed against the sword wind.
I didn't expect it to be lucky enough to survive until now.
"Light, it's uncomfortable, I accept your light..." the soul-eating monster groaned.
Gu Qingshan sensed that it was about to die, so he put away the ghost-weary magic circle.
Only then did the soul-eating monster stop breathing.
The long sword pointed at the monster's forehead.
A bright bolt of lightning radiated from the edge of the sword with the murderous intent to destroy everything.
"Come, tell us, why are you the only one still here?" Gu Qingshan pointed his sword at the soul-eating monster and asked.
The power of thunder and lightning made the soul-eating monster extremely uncomfortable, but it showed a ferocious smile.
"I just didn't want to be eaten by other monsters, so I hid. I didn't expect that I would be discovered like this."
"Then tell me what happened, and I promise to find a way to treat your injuries." Gu Qingshan said.
"It's too late," the soul-eating monster shook its head. "Everything is over, and you are going to be finished too."
After saying that, the soul-eating monster dispersed into a ball of black mist and slowly disappeared.
It's dead.
