Zhao Ning lowered her eyes, "You mean, there is still ground underground?"
"Yes." Ting Lan said, "Master Shen, have you ever heard of Jiuyou? Jiuyou is the place where ancient gods and demons go to reincarnate after death. If you can enter Jiuyou, you will have a chance to escape the confinement of Jiuzhou."
"If you want to go to Jiuyou, it is better to enter from Youdu. There is an entrance to Youdu there. Even if you go to Jiuyou, you may not be able to get out." Zhao Ning said.
This news was told to her when Tiangong apologized, but it means that if you can go directly to Jiuzhou by entering Jiuyou, it is impossible. If you can really go, these Tiangong Yuanshen Venerables will not It has been here for many years.
Zhao Ning knew a lot of things, and even Ting Lan didn't expect that Zhao Ning would point out the unusual things in an instant.
Zhiyue paused, knowing that she could not take back her words once she had said them, let alone say half of them and leave half of them.
"It is true that you don't just need to enter Jiuyou to get out, but you need some kind of power, but I don't know exactly what this power is, but since it is the place where the ancient gods have their gods, it is most likely related to the ancient gods. So. I guess that if we can get their orthodoxy, we might be able to find the way to Kyushu in Jiuyou."
Zhao Ning looked at her and Ting Lan told her everything she knew without any concealment.
With the help of the power of ancient gods and demons, it is indeed possible to return to Jiuzhou from Jiuyou.
At this moment, Zhao Ning also understood why Ting Lan was here.
"Do you want to find Empress Houtu's inheritance?"
Ting Lan was even more shocked, and then thought of the people in the Yangshen Realm who respected and knelt down for Zhao Ning. She suddenly understood that Zhao Ning had been here a long time ago and knew it well. It is not surprising that there is the inheritance of Houtu Empress.
She looked at Zhao Ning cautiously, "Then you get..."
Obtain the orthodoxy of Houtu Empress? Zhao Ning shook his head, no.
Ting Lan's hope was shattered in an instant. She lowered her head. There were only so many ancient ruins in Kyushu.
If one of them fails, one is missing, and then the possibility of returning to Jiuzhou becomes even less.
"How do you know that there is the tradition of ancient gods here?"
"That's what Li Yangze said. Although he designed to frame us, if he lies, he will be easily...detected by me. I know that his words are true, and he can only confuse the preface and the follower. At least there must be ancient ruins. , it’s just not at the place of the Blazing Sun Fire, but it must be related to the Blazing Sun Fire.”
Ting Lan paused for a moment, then realized something, and quickly explained, "I didn't jump in just to gain Brother Si Shi's affection or anything. I just didn't want Brother Si Shi to fight for me anymore, plus I……"
...his appearance was completely ruined.
Tinglan raised her hand to cover her cheek, and the sadness in her heart overflowed inch by inch.
"I really jumped with the last glimmer of hope, so I jumped decisively. Unexpectedly, I guessed it right. There is a passage to the secret realm in the blazing sun fire."
Zhao Ning was noncommittal about Ting Lan's actions. Even if it were Zhao Ning, she would choose to gamble when she was desperate, and sometimes Zhao Ning might bet more ruthlessly than Ting Lan.
The two were silent for a long time.
"Don't worry, since Kyushu is still the original land and there are still so many ancient ruins, there will definitely be a chance."
Zhao Ning did not hide anything, "As far as I know, there are many ancient ruins in the secret realms of Jiuyou and Qianren Mountains."
Tinglan's eyes lit up, "Seriously."
Zhao Ning nodded.
Going to Jiuzhou is still elusive. Three thousand years of hard work and the opportunity to search for ancient ruins are not in conflict with each other.
When you reach the realm of Nascent Soul, the path of cultivation is far from just seclusion and absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth before you can advance. The key opportunities, opportunities, and epiphanies... all need to be found and pursued.
What's more, she still has the key to Tubo's tomb. She can go there and have a look. Even if she doesn't find the answer, she can get other opportunities. Why not.
Zhao Ning stood up and said, "Let's go back to Jiuzhou."
Ting Lan naturally followed Zhao Ning's arrangements, not to mention that Zhao Ning just said that she had friends who might help Ting Lan with her pain.
At this moment, Aoki appeared under the nine-story Aoki trial tower very promptly.
He smiled and said, "Old friend, I'm leaving now."
Zhao Ning did not hide it.
At this time, he saw Qingmu raise his hand, spread his hands, and gave Zhao Ning a jade plaque.
Zhao Ning took it and found that the jade tokens on some corpses that she had seen before in the nine-story Aoki Trial Tower were the same. This should be the identity token of Lingya Sect.
"What does this mean?" Zhao Ning asked lightly.
Aoki said bluntly, "This is the identity token of the Lingya Sect. Although it is already blank, it contains the powerful insights of the Lingya Sect, and I can understand the meaning of the great road from it."
To be called a powerful person in a place like Lingya Sect, at least in the realm of Yuanshen.
What Aoki did was obviously to please Zhao Ning and make Zhao Ning remember the proposal he had just made with her.
Zhao Ning just responded calmly.
"You also said that if you want to go to Jiuzhou, it will take thousands of years." She looked at Aoki, "It's still a long time before thousands of years, so I can't make a promise to you right away."
Aoki was very perceptive and smiled, "Of course, you have to be cautious about such things, and I also know that I can't leave Yangshen Realm easily, otherwise the creatures here will... ha, I will wait for my old friend again."
Zhao Ning nodded, "Fellow Taoist Qingmu can see clearly."
"I will do my best to protect this, just like it is a training ground for Lingya Sect."
This is the most straightforward promise Aoki can give.
Zhao Ning nodded, but she didn't reject him as much as she did Ye Feng.
"I'll ask fellow Taoist Qingmu to help us open the way back to Kyushu."
"Okay." Aoki responded without stopping at all.
As soon as the spell in his hand moved, the entire nine-story Aoki Trial Tower moved. Countless branches of this tall tree suddenly moved at the same time, and during the rotation, it turned into a series of upward-sloping stairs. And it extends all the way to Tai Chi Yin Yang Fish.
"Old friend invites you, fairy invites you."
Zhao Ning nodded slightly, and Tinglan walked straight to the stairs made of branches, climbing thousands of miles into the sky.
Ye Feng, who was approaching the Tai Chi Yin Yang Fish and was hanging by a chain, also noticed them. He was struggling crazily and seemed to want to scream at them, but then he was invaded by the constant stream of filthy gas from the Yang God Realm, and the sound he made when he opened his mouth was nothing but difficulty. cried out in pain.
Ting Lan's eyes fell on Ye Feng, with coldness in her eyes. She followed Zhao Ning's footsteps without saying a word.
Under the control of Aoki, the Tai Chi Yin and Yang Fish rotated slightly, and the Yin and Yang fish spread out to both sides, like a twisted door gradually opening.
Zhao Ning and Ting Lan entered it, but the moment their eyes swayed, they suddenly realized something was wrong.
There were countless sharp wind blades surrounding them, rushing toward them with boundless killing intent.
But these couldn't hurt them. With a flash of divine light, these murderous intentions froze all the killing intentions in mid-air in an instant.
His vision returned to normal, and he saw them appearing in a mountain col, surrounded by low-level monks.
Because of the freezing of murderous intent, everyone was extremely shocked.
Zhao Ning and Ting Lan did not come out from the entrance. The exit and entrance of Yangshen Realm were obviously not in the same place.
The exit seemed to be surrounded by people.
Zhao Ning didn't want to get entangled with them. The pressure on his body floated away, and everyone knelt on the ground in an instant.
But at this moment, the surroundings suddenly changed again, and countless shadows suddenly appeared on those people. Those shadows seemed to be their souls that were forcibly torn out. These souls screamed violently, and in an instant, the offensive was directed towards their sea of consciousness. Attack.
It's just that these sounds are nothing to Zhao Ning, they can't even penetrate the Zifu Consciousness Sea.
But Ting Lan was greatly affected by this. She cast a strange spell to temporarily stabilize herself, and said next to Zhao Ning, "This is the ghost soul capturing array. Even if the soul will not be seriously injured, if the opponent's ghost is If it dies, we will also be implicated in the bloody cause and effect."
What Ting Lan means is, don't let them kill themselves, otherwise they will be the ones affected.
Zhao Ning responded. In the face of absolute strength, it was impossible for them to die even if they wanted to. They saw a flash of spiritual light in Zhao Ning's hand, and the screams of everyone's souls seemed to be stuck and blocked. In their flesh | bodies.
The next moment, with a twist of magic in his hand, everyone was imprisoned.
Zhao Ning's spiritual consciousness swept across. These people were not guarding an exit. They were guarding the people who were besieged in a cave not far away.
After scanning with her spiritual consciousness, Zhao Ning was a little surprised.
Immediately afterwards, with a slight wave of his sleeves, the people besieged here disappeared.
She looked at the exit and said lightly, "Come out."
But there was no movement in the cave. After a long time, a few people slowly came out.
Until a female cultivator saw Zhao Ning, her eyes lit up and she shouted in surprise, "Senior Shen, it's you!"
Yes, these besieged people are Xiaozhu and others, but Zhao Ning only knows Xiaozhu. If there are no accidents, these people should all be Xiaozhu's fellow disciples and sisters.
They were frightened from the beginning. After all, after the sound was transmitted into the cave, many people tried to find out who was outside, but they did not expect that they would lose their sense of consciousness as soon as their consciousness was gone. How could they dare to come out easily in such a state? But they are also afraid that if they wait until the other party says the second sentence, there will be a greater threat waiting for them.
After hesitating for a long time, I still walked out, but fortunately, it was all optimistic.
Xiaozhu walked out with a smile. She had completely lost her youthful appearance and transformed into a bright and charming young girl.
She saluted Zhao Ning and said, "Senior Shen, it's great to see you. Otherwise we would really die here."
Zhao Ning only raised his eyes and glanced at Xiaozhu. Xiaozhu told Zhao Ning very smartly, "Those are people from the Feiling Sect who have a conflict with us, but they all have weird abilities to control snakes and objects. There is really nothing we can do about it." control."
As if to confirm what Xiaozhu said, someone soon shouted, "There are snakes, there are snakes!"
Looking again, snakes all over the mountain were swarming towards them, followed by a huge snake king coiled on the high hill.
"What is that?" Ting Lan was extremely shocked. She clearly felt that the giant snake was close to the peak of the golden elixir.
Xiaozhu said, "Those are the sacred beasts of Feiling Sect. They want to rob us of clues to the secret realm."
But with Zhao Ning here, they couldn't succeed.
"Clues to the secret realm."
Xiaozhu said, "The palace owner got it by accident. She asked us to follow the clues first, but we didn't expect to be bumped into by this Feiling Sect person."
"I don't know who passed on the news, saying that there is a magical treasure in the secret realm that this clue points to."
Tongtian Lingbao is something that may not be seen in the entire Jiuzhou, so it is no wonder that people from the Feiling Sect are snatching it.
After saying that, Zhao Ning said no more, but another ray of light appeared in his hand, and then all the snakes turned into powder. Everything came and disappeared silently.
Xiaozhu calmed down and solemnly handed over to Zhao Ning, "Thanks to senior."
Her cultivation level was only at the peak of foundation building. She could not see the cultivation level of Zhao Ning and Ting Lan at all. She could only feel the faint pressure and knew that the two people in front of her must be above the golden elixir.
Zhao Ning responded, "Fellow Taoist Zhiyue is in the palace."
"Yes." Xiaozhu said quickly, "Xiaozhu will take you two back to the palace immediately.
Today's Qingyue Palace is a bit more lively than before. The aura hidden in the palace has a sense of vastness. This is the aura accumulated by Qingyue Palace over decades, but it is by no means ordinary. There must be something special. Only a small chance led to the current situation.
Xiaozhu led Zhao Ning and others into the palace, but Zhiyue was unexpectedly not here.
