Deep underground, among the abandoned palaces, Jiang Ming held the Chili Sword carefully and walked forward slowly.
Boom~
He walked among the rubble, and the breeze and sound brought by his walking directly caused a decaying palace next to him to collapse, sending up thick smoke and dust.
Looking forward, the entire huge ruins of the palace are like an apocalyptic scene, decaying and silent, and it has been lying there for an unknown number of years. From its majestic and huge scale, the gloominess can be guessed at the glory of the year.
Among the ruins, there are also huge islands leaning into the earth. Maybe they were places that would never fall...
And at the very front, a gleam of light penetrated into the sky, and mottled light rain scattered from time to time. It was unknown how many years it had been here.
Seeing no other way to go, Jiang Ming could only walk towards that glimmer of light step by step...
"I don't know how long no one has been here..."
Jiang Ming thought to himself that the bricks and stones used to build the palace are rare spiritual materials and will not decay after thousands of years. However, these palaces here are all in ruins. A gust of wind will probably knock down a large piece. …
"The Holy Land for Immortal Cultivation related to the Black Stone Ruins was only a force from ten thousand years ago, but this palace complex is far more than ten thousand years old. Maybe it was not the people who built the Holy Land for Immortal Cultivation back then, but discovered it during the exploration. This secret place..."
"For today's era, the Black Stone Ruins are extremely ancient ruins, and for the Holy Land of Cultivation where the Black Stone Ruins were built, this place may be an even older ruin..."
Jiang Ming suddenly thought about who the mysterious warrior who was sitting in the cave was. Was he just a guard guarding the passage?
"Then what is he guarding?"
Jiang Ming shook his head. He couldn't figure it out at all. He simply didn't want to think about it anymore. The stories in the pile of old papers may be exciting, but for people living in the present, they are just stories. If you can't hear them, then don't listen to them.
He casually walked into a ruins, where some fragments of metal and objects could be vaguely seen, but when he touched them with his hands, they were completely turned into fly ash.
Even in the world of immortality, there is nothing eternal. No matter how precious these things were back then, they have long been turned into useless dust...
Jiang Ming no longer thought about exploring any ruins, his speed increased, and he strode forward.
Even if there are any secrets here, the holy land for cultivating immortals ten thousand years ago should have been explored long ago. Maybe some clues can be found in the black stone ruins in a few years.
While moving forward, Jiang Ming also tried to use a burst of spiritual power. After all, there was no gray fog here, so he might be able to use the methods of an immortal cultivator.
But as soon as he exerted his spiritual power, his expression changed.
Buzz~
The invisible power came from the void, as if it could obliterate everything... Jiang Ming had not felt that familiar and terrifying feeling for many years.
Chi chi chi~
Traces of blood appeared on Jiang Ming's body. Some were deep to the bones, and some penetrated the heart. Even the neck was covered with blood, and his head was almost cut off... In just a moment, Jiang Ming suffered a terrifying and fatal blow. hurt.
If it had been any other cultivators, they might have died in just this moment...
In Jiang Ming's mind, the immortal source light was activated in time, quickly repairing his injuries, and he was back to normal in the blink of an eye.
"This is... a forbidden place!"
Jiang Ming's eyes were shocked. This space buried deep in the ground has exactly the same rules as the mortal world where Yunmeng Mountain is located. All methods related to spiritual power are prohibited.
The rules here are even colder and crueler, and the backlash after breaking the rules is even stronger, and in an instant, someone's head almost falls to the ground.
Even though Jiang Ming has established a foundation in martial arts, such a body is still as fragile as paper in the face of the mysterious and terrifying rules, no different from a mortal...
Jiang Ming took a deep breath, stopped using the immortal cultivator's methods, and continued to move deeper into the ruins. His thoughts were swirling in his heart and he was greatly touched.
"This mysterious ruin has existed for far more than 10,000 years.
Years, I don’t know how long it is... Could it be that the mortal world also has ancient secrets? "
As he looked at the magnificent ruins, a thought suddenly came to his mind: "Maybe the rules of heaven and earth in the mortal world were not born naturally, but were man-made just like this place..."
"Perhaps tens of thousands of years or more ago, that mortal world was also a prosperous place for cultivating immortals. Yunmeng Mountain, Jiulong Lake, Leiyin Valley...maybe all buried with ancient secrets of inheritance!"
However, Jiang Ming couldn't figure out what kind of shocking means could change the world and create such horrific and cruel rules.
He subconsciously looked towards the deepest part of the ruins, the faint light that penetrated the sky and the earth...
"Perhaps, all the secrets can be found there..."
Jiang Ming suppressed all the doubts in his heart and continued to move towards the glimmer of light.
Phew~
However, just as Jiang Ming was moving forward quickly, a harsh sound broke through the air suddenly from behind.
Jiang Ming's eyes were startled and he quickly looked back.
I saw a dark sword shadow rushing out of the mist channel, spinning several times in the air, seeming to have discovered Jiang Ming, and let out a clear sword cry, and pierced toward him.
"Fuck...what the hell is this!"
Jiang Ming's eyelids twitched, and he unleashed his martial arts power with all his strength, blood rippling on his body, and he flew forward without looking back.
When they were in the cave, Li Qianya and others would rather give up the ten thousand-year stone spirit blood to fight for this black stone sword. Jiang Ming knew how precious this thing was without asking...
However, he also knew that not everyone could play with this thing. It was weird and a bit scary. He had been sleeping for an unknown length of time, but as soon as he woke up he was able to kill several genius disciples from Cave Heaven Paradise.
"And didn't that master of foundation building come here? How could he let this black sword escape?"
Jiang Ming was shocked. Could it be that this black sword was also an old coin, pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger? Even a foundation-building master can't suppress it?
With this in mind, Jiang Ming directly used the Broken Vein Meridian, which he had not used for a long time. The blood in his veins exploded, and his speed increased again.
However, as soon as his blood energy exploded, the black sword behind him seemed to be even more excited. It roared with bloody ripples, and its speed increased to the extreme, quickly approaching Jiang Ming.
"What the hell are you...chasing? I didn't hit you!"
Jiang Ming turned around and looked, shocked and speechless. He found that the speed at which he exploded with all his strength was not as fast as this black stone sword.
"It is worthy of being something that a martial arts master would put in front of him when he was about to die..."
Jiang Ming secretly thought, but the more this happened, the less he wanted to mess with this thing. He continued to run with his head down, the blood in his body was already stirring. If he really waited for this ghost to catch up, he would give it a hard punch.
However, the next moment, something happened that made Jiang Ming feel even more chilled.
I saw the black sword trembling in the air for a while, as if it was shaken. Sensing Jiang Ming's anger, it actually rippled out blood-colored ripples at this moment. At the same time, a voice also passed into Jiang Ming's ears:
"Fellow Taoist, please stay, you and I are not enemies!"
"What the hell... is this alive?" Jiang Ming felt a chill running down his spine. Friendly army?
Where is the friendly army?
He turned a deaf ear and continued running.
Phew~
Phew~
In the dark ruins, people and swords flew back and forth, and the distance between them became closer and closer.
"Fellow Taoist, I am such a good person... Bah, what a great sword!"
"Fellow Taoist, let's find a place to sit down and talk..."
"Fellow Taoist, I really don't mean any harm, I just sensed a familiar aura on you!"
"Fellow……"
Jiang Ming's head was covered with black lines and he felt like his head was aching. Is this Black Sword not talking to anyone for 10,000 years, so he was a little crazy?
"Familiar breath? Could it be that I inspired the black stone slab and was sensed by this lunatic?" Jiang Ming thought to himself, this black sword and black stone
The plates come from the same source, so maybe there is some connection.
However, Jiang Ming knew nothing about this black stone sword, so it was naturally impossible for him to stop just after hearing a few words from it...
boom……
At this moment, in the distance behind him, another figure suddenly rushed out of the mist channel.
It was a strong young man. After a brief observation, he discovered the residual breath of blood in front of him. The blood on his body surface rippled, and his whole body rushed forward like a cannonball.
"In this forbidden land, let me see where you can escape..."
Lu Qianshang had a sneer on his face. This was his home field. Even if the Danjie monk came, he would still hate it.
…
"It seems we are getting close to the core..."
Deep in the ruins, Jiang Ming murmured.
Ahead, the ruined palaces were gradually becoming rarer, replaced by an endless expanse of scorched black land, as if it had encountered a shocking fire, with cracks as thick as an arm spreading in all directions like spider patterns.
The farther forward, the denser and thicker the cracks become. From a distance, some even look like a great rift valley, and an abyss seems to be formed in the front...
And in the abyss, it seems to be the glimmer of light at the front...
"It looks like some terrifying force fell from the sky... and hit the earth directly, causing such a scene!"
Jiang Ming was frightened. What kind of terrifying force must be to create such a rift valley?
At this moment, Jiang Ming was also frightened and suddenly sensed danger.
He turned around suddenly and saw a small black dot leaping and flying among the ruins in the far distance, approaching here.
And the black sword has disappeared without a trace, and no one knows where it was hidden.
"It doesn't seem like he's completely insane..." Jiang Ming was speechless.
"It should be the foundation-building monk who is catching up..."
Then Jiang Ming looked at the figure approaching quickly from behind, and his eyes moved slightly: "I guess this person is also a warrior, otherwise he would not be able to break out of the mist passage."
"But based on this speed, it seems that it is not as fast as me using the broken pulse meridian... I guess he is also a martial arts foundation builder?"
Jiang Ming was not too surprised. He had to attack the martial arts foundation building realm before practicing Qi and building the foundation, so it was extremely difficult.
But if after practicing qi and building a foundation, you then go back to improve your martial arts cultivation and build a martial arts foundation, as long as you have enough resources to invest in it, the difficulty of martial arts foundation building will be much easier.
"It's just that the resources needed to build a martial arts foundation like this are astonishing. Geniuses from ordinary small sects probably don't have the capital to do this... It's worthy of Cangming Cave Heaven."
And Jiang Ming has nothing to envy. It is simple to build the foundation through Qi training first and then the martial arts foundation. However, Jiang Ming has not seen in various classic records that this kind of foundation building can cleanse the scriptures and cut the marrow. Obviously, Jiang Ming practiced martial arts first. By building a foundation, the benefits are much greater.
"But you chased me here and you still want to kill me...isn't it a bit too high-spirited?"
Jiang Ming suddenly smiled.
What he was afraid of was a cultivator in the foundation-building stage, not a martial arts foundation-building warrior... In this forbidden spirit land, the opponent could not use spiritual power, but he had the immortal source light as his trump card, but he had no fear at all.
And even if he only used his martial arts cultivation, Jiang Ming believed that he could crush all enemies at the same level... Could it be that more than two hundred years of hard training were in vain.
"If we escape further, if we suddenly escape outside the forbidden spirit area, the other party will be able to use the cultivation of foundation building, which will not be good..."
"In this case, we can only solve this problem here!"
Thinking of this, Jiang Ming suddenly stopped, stood on the scorched earth, turned around and waited for the enemy to come.
Phew~
Within the cracks in the earth, wisps of black mist were steaming, almost invisible to the naked eye. Jiang Ming only noticed the black mist after he stopped.
"This seems to be the same thing as the black air in the fog channel..."
Jiang Ming glanced at the abyss where the glimmer of light was. Could it be that
This black mist and the forbidden spirit place are all caused by the terrifying power that sunk this place?
"Wait until you deal with the enemies, then go explore!"
Jiang Ming's thoughts converged, and the figure in front of him quickly approached, arriving in a matter of seconds.
boom……
Vigorous blood filled the air, and two cold and ruthless eyes stared at Jiang Ming as if they were looking down at ants.
"I didn't expect that among today's young people, there are actually martial arts practitioners..."
Lu Qianshang didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, and nodded appreciatively: "Boy, what kind of cultivation...can you reach the level of a martial arts master? Such a martial arts genius is really amazing. It would be a pity to kill him. Hand over everything, I can save you from death and take you back to Cangming Cave Heaven, so that you can become a prosperous person from now on!"
Jiang Ming smiled faintly and said: "A warrior should move forward bravely, but he should not be arrogant... With my seniority, I might be enough to be your grandfather, but don't talk big and be careful of your tongue."
"Hahaha... so crazy!" Lu Qianshang laughed: "I, Lu Qianshang, am a person who loves talents. You and I are fellow martial arts practitioners. I will give you one last chance... If you don't obey, you will die!"
However, from the beginning to the end, Lu Qianshang's eyes were extremely indifferent. It was obvious that he didn't take Jiang Ming seriously. He just regarded him as an interesting ant. If he obeyed, he would take him under his command. If he didn't, he would kill him directly.
"Lu Qianshang?"
Jiang Ming was slightly startled when he heard the name, and some memories seemed to appear in his mind.
After the battle for the King of Medicine, Jiang Ming traveled around the mountains and rivers anonymously for decades. An old generation passed away, and new martial arts legends were born in the rivers and lakes, and one martial arts master became famous all over the world.
Although Jiang Ming is no longer involved in various disturbances, he has heard the names of some martial arts masters...
"Lu Qianshang seems to be a rising grandmaster in the Yun Kingdom?" Jiang Ming murmured in his heart, and then looked at the person in front of him with strange eyes.
If you really think about it, even Jiang Ming’s grandson, Lu Qianshang, is looking up to him...
I didn’t expect to meet fellow villagers in this world of cultivating immortals!
"However, I have killed many fellow villagers, not more than this one!"
Jiang Ming's eyes were calm, and he said with a faint smile: "Xiao Lu, when you were in your hometown...have you ever heard of a name?"
Lu Qianshang's eyes flashed with anger, and he was about to directly kill this ignorant boy, but he heard the person in front of him spit out a name that shocked him.
"nameless!"
