After Tian Xiaoding escaped from Netherworld City, he drove the Feiyun Shuttle to fly rapidly in the wilderness.
While flying, he suddenly saw spots of light flashing in the distance. Xiao Ding didn't know what the light spot was, so he made the flying cloud shuttle fly quickly in the direction of the light spot.
However, the light spot seemed not far away, but the actual distance was not close at all.
Xiao Ding Yu made the Feiyun Shuttle continue to fly for a long time, but still didn't get close.
In the Nether Realm, he could not determine the exact time. He could only make a rough estimate in his mind. He estimated that he had been flying for at least several hours. In addition to being slightly larger than before, the light spot was slightly larger than before. There are no other changes.
The group of ghost tribesmen who had been chasing behind also did not give up. Although it was difficult to catch up, they never gave up and fell far behind.
Seeing that he could not get rid of these ghost tribesmen, Xiao Ding had no choice but to continue flying in the direction of the light spot.
Even when Xiao Ding felt hungry, he still had not reached the light spot.
On the way, Xiao Ding did not find Wangchen River. However, it passed by many villages and small towns where the ghost tribesmen lived, but because the flying cloud shuttle flew very fast, it did not attract the attention of the ghost tribesmen in those villages and towns.
Xiao Ding knew that he had gone in the wrong direction, but the ghost tribesmen behind him were chasing after him, and he had no other choice but to continue moving forward.
In this way, Xiao Ding deduced from the number of times he was hungry that he had been flying for more than two days. This time, he finally saw the light spot that had become very large.
At this time, Xiao Ding was not far away from the light spot. He vaguely saw that the light spot in his eyes before was now a huge light curtain shrouded in a mountain. The light curtain was shining with dazzling fluorescence, reflecting the nearby mountains very clearly.
It's a pity that the mountains in this Netherworld also look very bleak and lonely. In addition to a large number of dark rocks, there are also some sparse black trees growing on the mountain. All around the black trees, black air condensed.
Occasionally, one or two strange birds fly through the black trees, making several shrill and terrifying calls that make people shudder.
Xiao Ding saw the light curtain covering the mountains from a distance, and felt that the light curtain might be a barrier. However, he couldn't figure out why this barrier would cover the mountains in the Netherworld?
After continuing to fly forward for about several hours, Xiao Ding finally arrived in front of the light curtain.
At this time, Xiao Ding saw a teleportation array set up in front of the light curtain outside a mountain pass.
Is this teleportation array used to enter the light curtain?
Xiao Ding let go of his spiritual consciousness and looked inside the light curtain, but found that the light curtain had the effect of isolating his spiritual consciousness, and it was impossible to detect what was going on inside the light curtain.
He looked back at the group of ghost tribesmen who were getting closer and closer, and said to himself, no matter what was going on inside the light curtain, or where the teleportation array was leading to, he would teleport away first.
So, he fell from the sky, put away the flying cloud shuttle, and came to the teleportation array in front of the light curtain.
Generally speaking, to activate an ordinary teleportation array, you need to put a certain number of spiritual stones on it, and then use spiritual power to stimulate the array eyes, and the teleportation array will be activated for transmission.
Only a special teleportation array, which is itself arranged on the spiritual veins, can continuously provide energy for it. This kind of teleportation array is always running. There is no need to place additional spiritual stones and stimulating array eyes. You only need to stand on it. You can send it by yourself.
Xiaoding has learned the art of formation, so he naturally knows how to use the teleportation formation.
He stood on the teleportation array, took out some white spiritual stones and placed them in the grooves around the teleportation array, and then used his spiritual power to activate the array eyes.
However, the teleportation array did not move at all.
When Xiao Ding saw it, he immediately frowned. He once again took out some blue spirit stones and put them into the grooves of the teleportation array. Then go and activate the formation eye. This time, the light pillars around the teleportation array began to rotate.
It turns out that using this teleportation array requires a lot of spiritual stones!
The group of ghost tribesmen who had been chasing Xiao Ding were also riding flying magic weapons, so they soon arrived in front of the teleportation array. As soon as they landed on the ground, Xiao Ding grinned at them and disappeared.
This group of ghost tribesmen looked at the teleportation array, beating their chests and feet one by one, feeling sad and regretting that they were a step too late.
At this time, Xiao Ding, after experiencing the dizziness caused by the teleportation, opened his eyes and saw that the scene in front of him was still not much different from the scene in the Nether Realm. However, at this time, he was in the mountains, and there were a lot of black ghosts here, shrouded in the mountains, making it impossible to see too far away.
Among the mountains, there were still mostly black rocks and black trees. However, Xiao Ding, who was careful, actually found a few grass plants nearby, which were also dark.
Xiao Ding let go of his consciousness, and found no ghosts within the scope of his consciousness. He was relieved and then walked forward cautiously.
Ahead was the entrance to a valley. Xiao Ding saw that there were dark mountains everywhere around him, and the black air was lingering, making it difficult to discern the direction, so he walked towards the valley.
At this time, the place Xiao Ding actually wanted to go the most was the Wangchen River. However, after he lost his way, he didn't know where the Wangchen River was located. Now, he has no choice but to take it one step at a time.
He couldn't tell whether his current location was within the light curtain he had seen before, nor could he tell where in the Nether Realm this was.
And through the exploration with his spiritual consciousness just now, he also found that within the scope of his spiritual consciousness, except for the mountains and grass and trees, there were no ghosts. Therefore, it is impossible to find out where this place is.
However, Xiao Ding was walking forward when he suddenly saw a huge tree growing at the mouth of the valley. This big tree was as thick as three or four people hugging each other. The trunk of the tree penetrated into the black mist above, and the crown of the tree could not be seen. .
Such a tall giant tree is estimated to be hundreds of years old, if not thousands of years old. Xiao Ding opened his eyes, but did not see anything unusual about this giant tree.
Xiao Ding was a little surprised that the giant tree that had grown for so long had not yet reached the threshold of cultivation and was still an ordinary tree.
However, Xiao Ding's heart suddenly moved at this moment, and he suddenly thought of the psychic technique he had learned when he was at the eighth level of Qi training.
This psychic spell is a magical spell. After casting this spell, you can communicate spiritually with vegetation, birds, beasts, demons, ghosts and the like.
As the saying goes, all things have spirits, but any species that has spirit must have their own communication language. Spiritualism allows one to understand the languages of various spiritual beings and communicate with them through spiritual consciousness.
The most obvious example is Xiao Ding's wife Ouyang Qing. After she was forced by a monster to take the Beast Transformation Pill, her head turned into a rabbit head and she was unable to speak human words. When Xiao Ding communicated with her, he used psychic skills and then communicated with her through his spiritual consciousness.
The basic technique Ouyang Qing learned was also Xiao Ding's "Heart Melting Technique", so she naturally also knew how to channel spirits. Therefore, when she communicates with Ahri or others, she first uses psychic skills, and then communicates spiritually with others. You can even rely on this spell to perform sound transmission techniques and carry out secret sound transmission.
When Xiao Ding saw the giant tree, he thought of psychic skills. He just wanted to find out where he was from the giant tree. By the way, he also wanted to find out which direction the Wangchen River was located.
So, Xiao Ding stood in front of the giant tree, immediately used his psychic technique, and asked to the giant tree: "Senior Old Tree, please excuse me, can I ask you a few things?"
The age of the old tree must be many times longer than that of Xiao Ding, so it is not inconsistent for Xiao Ding to call him senior old tree.
Although this giant tree has not stepped into the threshold of cultivation, it has lived for such a long time, and it has obviously already possessed spirituality. It suddenly received the question Xiao Ding asked it. It was stunned for a moment, and then asked curiously: "Can you understand the language of our trees?"
Xiao Ding nodded and replied: "Yes, I have some knowledge of psychic spells."
The giant tree stretched its branches in the black mist a few times, and said suddenly: "I see, it seems that you should be a human monk, but why did you come to the Netherworld?"
Xiao Ding sighed and said helplessly: "It's a long story at this time. I was also forced to come here. I dare to ask Senior Laoshu, where is my current location in the Netherworld? How far is it from the Wangchen River? , how far can it be?”
The giant tree said quietly: "So you don't know where this is? Then let me tell you, this is a secret realm for the ghost tribe in the Netherworld, called the Netherworld Secret Realm."
"Secret Realm of the Netherworld?" Xiao Ding was shocked when he heard this.
"Yes, that's right. This Nether Secret Realm is one of the secret realms on Tiankun Planet. It opens once every hundred years, and it takes half a month each time. Ghost generals and ghost tribesmen below can enter at will. The secret realm contains all kinds of rare spiritual plants and weapon refining materials that the ghost tribesmen need for their cultivation, and there are no ghost beasts to guard them, so anyone who encounters them can collect them at will." Jushu said in an orderly manner.
"So that's it! So, the place covered by the light barrier that I saw when I came in on the teleportation array is the ghost tribe's secret realm, right?" Xiao Ding guessed.
"That's right. If you want to enter this secret realm of the netherworld, you can only enter through the teleportation array." The giant tree replied.
"But when I came in, a group of ghost tribesmen also chased to the teleportation array. Why didn't I see them coming in?" Xiao Ding asked doubtfully.
The giant tree shook its branches in the black mist again and said: "You may not know yet, but in fact, this secret realm of the netherworld is still two days away from the real opening time. You are not a ghost tribe member, so you are not restricted. You can enter in advance. But those ghost tribesmen have to wait two days before they can enter the Netherworld Secret Realm."
Xiao Ding suddenly understood and continued to ask: "Since I can enter in advance, can I go out at any time?"
The giant tree replied affirmatively: "That's not possible. No matter who it is, after entering the Nether Secret Realm, there is no way out. They can only wait for the secret realm to end and be randomly ejected from the secret realm before they can leave here. "
"Ah? If so, wouldn't I have to stay in this secret realm for half a month?" Xiao Ding said in surprise.
"That's true." The giant tree replied silently.
"It seems that I have to leave here as soon as possible and find a safe place to hide." Xiao Ding said to himself.
The giant tree shook its branches and asked, "Why?"
Xiao Ding answered honestly: "Because there are many ghost tribesmen who are chasing me. The Netherworld Secret Realm will open in two days, and they will definitely come in and intercept me. If I still stay here, wouldn't I just be blocked by them?" Moreover, since this is the secret realm of the ghost tribe, then all qualified ghost tribesmen in the entire Netherworld will definitely not miss this opportunity. When they come in and meet me, they will definitely not let me, a human monk, go. .”
"Oh, actually you don't need to worry too much." The giant tree said nonchalantly.
"Why?" Xiao Ding asked curiously.
"Because the teleportation array outside the barrier is a random teleportation array. The ghost tribesmen outside use this teleportation array to enter the secret realm and will be randomly teleported to various places in the secret realm. The area in the Netherworld Secret Realm is very large. Those who pursue It is also very difficult for the ghost tribesman who killed you to meet you."
After hearing this, Xiao Ding felt a little relieved.
I thought to myself: Even so, I still have to prepare myself in advance. Two days later, the ghost tribe members entered the Netherworld in large numbers, and the probability of being discovered must be very high. Even if you don't meet the ghost tribesmen who are chasing you, meeting other ghost tribesmen will not be much better.
Therefore, since I have two days, I can definitely make some defensive preparations in advance.
Some people died, but not completely...
