The "energy" phantom beast turned into the colorful pattern on Mu Ziyun's wrist again. Mu Ziyun, who didn't know where he was, took stock of the environment here.
The green land was lined with abandoned stone sculptures, most of which were incomplete, and many were still buried in the soil. Mu Ziyun counted roughly, and there were more than 740 on the hill in front of him alone. It looks like it has been abandoned for a long time. From the lions in front of the door to the Buddha in the temple, there are many types of stone statues, many of which are unprecedented.
Mu Ziyun was flying at low altitude, and the air here was also cold and solemn. Many of the stone statues were lifelike. Mu Ziyun always felt that they were looking at him, but there was not a single plant or tree here, not a sound, not even the wind.
Mu Ziyun stopped. He didn't want to leave so quickly, so he stepped on a broken stone statue. Thumb thump... He remembered the sound of knocking next to him. Mu Ziyun turned his head curiously and found a little monkey in clothes tapping the Buddha statue with a piece of gravel, as if he was repairing it.
Mu Ziyun did not sense the little monkey's aura in advance, thinking that he was uneasy. Unexpectedly, the little monkey turned around and said something, "Young man, where did you come from?" Mu Ziyun was not surprised, he just felt strange and carefully looked at the appearance of the three-foot little monkey. The little monkey has white hair, simple clothes, and white hair on the top of his head. The little monkey puts his hands behind his back and his body is hunched. He looks and behaves like an old man, and his voice is green and powerful.
Mu Ziyun replied: "Coming from the real world, senior, where is this place and who are you?"
"This is the Chu Ling Domain. At the edge of the Chu Ling Domain, no living being has come here for many years. I am the last living creature to come here." The little monkey sat on the head of the stone statue, and Mu Ziyun realized that , this guy has a third eye, located in the center of his chest.
The little monkey took out a rusty incense burner and shook it a few times before smoke rose from the burner. The little monkey took a sip with enjoyment and spit it out after a long time.
Mu Ziyun refused to give up and asked again: "Dare you ask me your senior's name?"
"Chongming is my name, I'm just a wild monkey sleeping on the edge of the realm."
"Senior, why are there so many stone statues here? Are they all moved from the real world?" The little monkey replied: "They are all the thoughts of living beings. They were too heavy and could not fly far, so they fell and sank into the soil. It's useless." Mu Ziyun didn't understand what it meant, and asked the little monkey how many years he had been here. The little monkey just said that he had forgotten, and then inhaled the smoke from the incense burner.
Mu Ziyun was very curious about how this monkey survived here. There was not a single plant or tree here, not even water. Unless the monkey could not eat or drink, but if a living being wants to exist, it must need energy. What is its source of energy? Could it be these stone statues?
The monkey clicked his tongue. It turned out that the material in the incense burner was gone. It didn't do anything. Suddenly, a stone statue not far away appeared.
It "came" to life. It was a stone statue of the beast tribe, similar to the door god of the human race. It held a heavy sword in both hands. When it came to the little monkey, the stone statue scraped off the stone powder with the sword and sprinkled it into the little monkey's incense burner.
The smoke from the incense burner rose again, and in the blink of an eye, the stone statue was buried in the soil, as if it had not been touched for many years.
Mu Ziyun thought to himself: "This guy really lives by the stone statue. He shouldn't be a god from the Shu Ling Domain." The little monkey took a deep breath of smoke, and the look of enjoyment made Mu Ziyun couldn't help but want to go. After taking a breath, the little monkey suddenly turned into a stone statue. Mu Ziyun didn't react at all. After being stunned for a long time, he once again confirmed that the little monkey had turned into a stone statue. He jumped up suddenly, feeling that he was under an illusion. , because he did not sense any breath or energy from beginning to end.
Looking around again, countless stone statues seemed to be staring at him, making Mu Ziyun very uncomfortable.
Mu Ziyun was not in a hurry to leave. He bent down and touched the top of the little monkey statue with his right hand a few times. He raised his hand to look at it and saw that it was covered with a layer of dust. He said to himself: "It has been here for a long time. As expected just now. It's an illusion, how did I enter this illusion?" Just as he was thinking of this, something fell from the sky, but it was like a stone falling into the deep sea, dull and silent.
Mu Ziyun quickly walked up to it, and it turned out to be a new stone statue. It was a horse, with four hooves in a running shape, as if stepping on the strong wind, as light as a bird. The carving was lifelike, making Mu Ziyun sigh that this was not a living thing. Things turned into stone.
Suddenly, the stone statue came to life. It stepped on the clouds with light hooves and came to the little monkey crazily. The little monkey became alive again. The horse lowered its head in front of the monkey. The little monkey used a stone to hit the horse's head. Some stone powder was scraped off and fell into the incense burner. Then, the horse ran elsewhere, but disappeared after a few breaths. Mu Ziyun looked around anxiously, and finally found the stone horse statue in a remote place. , half of the body was buried in the soil, and it looked like it had been buried for many years.
The little monkey held the incense burner in both hands and greedily took a few puffs of smoke. Mu Ziyun walked to the little monkey and asked in a low voice: "Senior Chongming, when was this illusion? Do the times in the Chu Ling Realm overlap?" As soon as he finished speaking, he felt strange in his lower body, lowered his head, and was surprised. Feeling that half of his body had turned into stone, Mu Ziyun hurriedly asked the little monkey for help, but the monkey turned into a stone statue again.
But the petrification stopped when it reached the waist. Mu Ziyun struggled to move half of the stone body with his upper body. He approached the monkey and knocked on its body, trying to wake it up.
For a long time, it had no effect. Mu Ziyun thought that everything was an illusion, and that his petrification was too deep.
Thinking together, a fire swept across the sky, even the stones were burned, and the green land suddenly turned into a molten field.
Smoke clouds rose from the lava, and suddenly, a huge head appeared in the sky, but it was the head of the little monkey. The head took a few puffs of smoke with enjoyment, then closed his eyes and meditated.
The ground shook three times under Mu Ziyun's feet, and he realized that he seemed to be standing in the incense burner, and this molten fire became the gunpowder in the incense burner. When did he become smaller, and when did he enter? There was such a strange illusion in the incense burner. Was it the monkey?
Mu Ziyun shouted: "Senior Chongming, I have no intention of offending, please spare my life!" But his body began to continue to turn to stone, and he could not stop this process. Even if it turned into void, the virtual fire would also turn into stone.
Muziyun was completely submerged in the sea of fire, and the little monkey sitting on the stone scraped a brand-new stone statue with a stone. The lower body of the stone statue was a human body, and the upper body was made of flames. It was the result of Muziyun's change just now, and the fallen stone statue. The stone powder made the fire in the incense burner burn more vigorously.
Next to the little monkey, Mu Ziyun was sitting blankly. He was still confused. He had clearly experienced everything that had just happened, so why was he suddenly sitting here again? The stone statue that he had transformed into came to life and was jumping and running. He looked elsewhere, and after a few breaths, he disappeared again. Mu Ziyun refused to give up, and searched for it on the green land for a long time, and finally found his stone statue buried in the rubble.
Returning to the little monkey, Mu Ziyun bowed respectfully: "This junior has eyesight but cannot recognize Mount Tai. I dare to ask senior Chongming if he is the god of the Shuling Domain." The little monkey looked at Mu Ziyun, smiled, shook his head, and nodded again. After a moment, the little monkey asked: "How do you feel?"
"My body feels a little more relaxed. Senior, what's going on? You said that the stone statue here is a reflection of the living beings. Are you taking out some bad things in my body?" The little monkey answered the question differently and said: " This is the boundary of the age range, child, there is no way to go forward, go back."
"Yes, but senior, what are these stone statues..." Before he could finish asking, the little monkey turned back into a stone statue. Mu Ziyun let out a long sigh, but with this sigh, something happened again, and his feet started to move again. He turned into stone. This time he did nothing. When he turned into stone, he sat next to the stone as if nothing had happened, and his body became much more relaxed again.
Mu Ziyun seemed to understand that this is the end point of the longings of living beings. After all, the Age Realm is not the real world. It is not easy to maintain the balance here for millions of years. The founder of the world, Lord Sumichuan, may have set the age limit for the Age Realm. Without many rules, how could something not happen for millions of years? The Chu Ling Domain would cause the out-of-control thoughts of living beings to escape their bodies and turn into stones on the green earth, greatly weakening the power of the creatures in the Chu Ling Domain.
"Purpose" to maintain stability. But all this is just Mu Ziyun's guess. Mu Ziyun flew into the sky. He had to fly out of this marginal area first. In the short ten-mile journey, he was petrified at least forty times. As long as there were doubts, surprises, doubts and other thoughts in his heart, he would sink. Go down.
As time went by, he became even more unable to calm down. After a few hours, he finally realized the seriousness of the problem. He might be trapped here, and once he thought so, he would be unable to get out, and would become petrified faster and more frequently. .
He came to the little monkey and said respectfully: "Senior Chongming, please point out a way back for me." The petrified little monkey did not respond, so Mu Ziyun sat cross-legged next to it, meditating. An hour later, He felt that his heart was calm enough, so he flew into the sky. With only one thought in his mind, he rushed towards the direction he came from without thinking about anything else.
But how can a person not think about anything? A thought is just a thought, he kept saying in his heart
"Come on, we're going out soon." This expectation and desire made him fall again. He returned to the little monkey again. He was really panicked and couldn't get out.
There was a burning sensation on his wrist. He lowered his head and found that
The colorful patterns transformed into "Neng" beasts were shimmering. He raised his head to look at the horizon, and suddenly felt something there. He remembered something, and then immediately called out
The "energy" beast was then surrounded by thunder and lightning. He gave his body to the thunder soul and didn't think about anything. In just one moment, he left the green land.
Quan Tianqi stood in the air, surrounded by two spatial planes, and there was nothing between the spatial planes. But gradually, a line appeared. It turned out that between the two spatial planes was Muzi Cloud moving at half the speed of light. It was too fast to appear, so the line appeared after the speed slowed down, and then overlapping figures appeared. After a long time, Mu Ziyun could finally stop.
Seeing Quan Tianqi, Mu Ziyun immediately asked: "Where is that place, and what is the identity of that monkey?" Quan Tianqi frowned, shook his head and said: "I have never been there, and there have never been any living creatures on the edge of the Shuling Domain. Having arrived, your speed seems to have broken the rules of the age range, so be careful in the future and don't do this again."
"What I don't want to do is to be forced by that sea monster. What is that sea monster?" Quan Tianqi turned around, his back to Mu Ziyun, but with a grin on his lips, he replied: "How do I know, you Just practice with peace of mind. With your strength, you won’t be able to survive for more than a few days in the Chu Ling Realm.” After that, a space plane sent Mu Ziyun back to the yellow land.
