The seniors were obviously very happy to see the old man Jiu Gourd and came up to greet him one after another. When their eyes fell on Li Dai and the others, they nodded and were surprised: "Yes, these dolls can come out of the secret realm alive this time. It's very good." Not bad." One of the old-timers, whose face was as wrinkled as tree bark, sighed.
"Well, thirty-seven people, five of them came out alive, those children who died, hey..."
Some people marveled, while others sighed. It was a mature middle-aged uncle with a sad look on his face, obviously sighing for those who were buried in the secret realm.
"Go in, let's talk after we get in." Another gray-haired old woman said, quite eagerly. It was obvious that she wanted to know what happened in the secret realm.
The old man Jiu Gourd nodded, and the group entered the village. After passing through the green bamboo forest at the entrance of the village, Li Dai discovered the strangeness of this village. It turned out that the houses in the normal villages outside were all used for camouflage, which allowed people passing by to see the existence of the village. , I just thought it was an ordinary village located in this bamboo forest, but after passing through the long bamboo forest, I came to a place similar to the back mountain. Climbing up the stairs, I saw a mountain covered in a formation, very The steep and rugged mountains are deep. After the old man threw something out of the air, the mountains were revealed from a burst of mist. Such a place is really a bit of a hermit's place.
The forbidden area of Gui Wang Mountain was opened. Because the yin energy in Gui Wang Mountain was heavy, even monks like Li Dai and others still felt a little cold.
After entering, looking at the mortal souls floating everywhere, even Li Dai was stunned.
"Aunt, what's going on?" Shen Xiaoyun, who was seriously injured, was extremely surprised. He was being carried on his back, looked around, and asked the doubts in his heart.
When Shen Yue heard his question, she did not hide it, but said: "This is Ghost King Mountain. It is a place in the dense swamps of the Western Plains. It is an extremely gloomy place."
"Oh?" Shen Xiaoyun was really surprised. The extremely gloomy place is not so friendly to living people, but it is very suitable for resting.
"When we discovered this extremely gloomy place, there were already many ghosts in the mountains. It can be said that the souls from thousands of miles around the dense swamp, whether they were mortals or fallen monks, attracted them here, thus forming The yin energy in Guiwang Mountain gathers all year round, making it look like a semi-underworld."
"Due to the special geographical environment, we found that this place is extremely hidden, easy to defend and difficult to attack, so without much thought at the beginning, we transformed Guiwang Mountain into a special base and our real home."
"Many of the children who were taken to Ghost King Mountain are born with Yin bodies. They practice faster when they come here. At the same time, by selecting them, they can also control the wandering souls in Ghost King Mountain. Children with Yin bodies can practice When they get up, they can sign a contract with the wandering ghosts. Of course, if those ghosts are unwilling, they can also practice here and turn into ghost cultivation."
"So...those...are they all ghost cultivators?" Looking at the pale-faced people who appeared from time to time, looking lifeless, Liu Se felt very uncomfortable and asked, trembling with fear.
"That's right." Shen Yue nodded, "Most of them are ghost cultivators. It may not be long before we will become one of them." Speaking of which, although her lifespan is still relatively long, unlike The old man Jiu Gourd is approaching his longevity, but if he cannot break the curse and ascend in the future, it will be a matter of time before he falls and becomes a ghost cultivator.
When a mortal dies, his soul can return to the underworld and be reincarnated. If a monk dies as a human, he must either seize his body or become a ghost. There is no such thing as reincarnation. If neither path works, it will really end in ashes and annihilation.
So this Ghost King Mountain, the old man Jiu Gourd and the seniors have protected it, set up layers of formations, and raised so many yin children and scattered souls in it, so that they can become ghost cultivators, isn't it for themselves? Leave a way out. Only when there are more ghost cultivators in Guiwang Mountain and the Yin Qi becomes heavier, forming a true natural Nine Yin Absolute Formation, can the Yin Qi circulate and continue to exist. At that time, this place will really become a place for ghost cultivators. of heaven.
When the time comes, I and others will have a place to go when they fall.
In today's Ghost King Mountain, the Nine Yin Formation is naturally formed, but it is not yet the Nine Yin Jue Formation. The Nine Yin Formation is only the prototype of the Nine Yin Jue Formation. To form a more powerful Nine Yin Jue Formation, neither Yin Qi nor Ghost Qi can few.
How to increase it?
Naturally, more casual cultivators and Yin practitioners will come here to practice.
As the group of people went deeper, the three characters "Ghost King Sect" appeared. The black and messy fonts had a sense of eeriness.
This place has really become a sect!
It's just that the Ghost King Sect, the Ghost King Sect started by the old man Jiu Gourd and the others, seems to have no reputation at all in Cangyun Continent. Li Dai has never heard of it before.
The deeper you go, the heavier the Yin Qi and the colder. It is common to encounter ghost cultivators blocking the road and hitting the walls. Even if there is the old man Jiu Gourd and the others together, Li Dai and the others almost get lost and are separated from a group of seniors.
But with those seniors, even if they were hit by a wall, they could be pulled out quickly and move on.
After walking like this for a long time, they climbed over more than a dozen continuous mountains, and finally the old man Jiu Gourd brought them to a magical hall.
Letter to: Palace of True Words
Mantra Palace?
Is that what she meant?
And when they got here, Li Dai also understood why the old man Jiu Gulu didn't ask them about the situation in the secret realm along the way. It was because he was also worried about them not telling the truth, so he took them directly to the Ghost King Sect in Ghost King Mountain. In the Mantra Palace.
And if a monk wants to know all the memories of others, there is no way out. He can just search for the soul.
However, searching for souls has a big drawback. No matter how advanced a monk is, searching for other people's souls may cast an indelible shadow on the person being searched, and in serious cases can lead to people becoming idiots.
Therefore, the relatively conscientious old man Jiu Gourd and others would not do such a cruel thing. Moreover, what they want to know is only the news about the inheritance of the heavenly body and the holy fruit of Tianzhi. There is really no need to search for souls. .
You know, searching for a monk's soul can reveal everything about the monk. In the world of cultivation, even if the monk doesn't have any secrets, if he really searches for the soul, the two sides will definitely become eternal enemies, and neither will the old man and the others. The children he was willing to cultivate hated him. After all, they were still young people, and the hope for the future of Cangyun Continent still lay with them.
When she saw the True Word Palace, Li Dai frowned, but Su Xueying's expression completely changed and she could no longer remain calm.
During this trip to the Holy Heaven Secret Realm, not to mention the Tianzhi Holy Fruit Celestial Body inheritance, she didn’t even see a ghost. If it weren’t for the fact that she had harvested many top-grade demon pills and a top-grade mutant monster cub in the secret realm, , some precious spiritual herbs, I'm afraid she will really vomit blood.
She has never seen the most valuable inheritance.
So she was no longer calm and looked panic-stricken. She was really not afraid that the old man Jiu Gulu would ask about the celestial body inheritance and Tianzhi Holy Fruit. She was afraid that the old man Jiu Gourd would find out about the disappearance of those people. She was afraid that Liu Se and Dao Wuxia would She caused other people's lives, and caused the lives of countless companions to be shaken out.
Since leaving the secret realm, Dao Wuxia and Shen Xiaoyun have been seriously injured, and it was indeed her fault.
When she was about to leave the secret realm, Su Xueying met Dao Wuxia again and wanted to kill him without hesitation. There was no other reason than that he knew too much. Like Liu Se, he survived. , know too much, they know that she is the reason for the death of those people, and she was the murderer.
In her eyes, they were nothing but cannon fodder for her to obtain treasures.
So there is no mercy in sacrifice.
It's just that although she was careful, but after a long time, she was still discovered by Dao Wuxia Liu Se. She had framed them many times, but Dao Wuxia was strong enough to be able to withstand it every time, and Liu Se was still alive. It depends on luck.
Not to mention that, it was Dao Wuxia who knew many of her secrets, so this person could never get out alive. Therefore, when she met him again before the secret realm was closed, Su Xueying did not hesitate to take action, using the most vicious and fierce move. Attack them.
Yes, it's them!
Because Dao Wuxia was with Shen Xiaoyun at that time, I don't know when they met.
So she didn't stop doing anything, and she planned to kill both of them directly.
It's a pity that her Heavenly Thunder Talisman is comparable to the one struck by a Mahayana monk. The life-saving Heavenly Thunder Talisman she obtained from an ancient cultivation cave during her training exploded, but it did not completely strangle the two of them, only causing them to die. They were seriously injured and were teleported out of the secret realm.
When the two seriously injured people saw her appearing, they were of course extremely angry and told her of her crime.
What did the old man with wine gourd say at that time? 'There's no rush, we'll wait until there's evidence,' were his exact words.
At that time, I thought it was the old man Jiu Gourd's favoritism, because it was impossible to produce evidence of what happened in the secret realm other than searching for souls. At that time, she made a sudden attack, and they couldn't use the photo stone to land down, so Su Xueying thought that something was wrong. It should have passed like that.
But what the hell is this Mantra Palace?
So the old man Jiu Gourd is questioning the evidence here?
Thinking of this, Su Xueying's face turned extremely pale. As soon as the door of the main hall was pushed open, a heavy sound sounded, and then the door opened wide. What came into view were countless rays projected down. It looked a bit like Li Dai's previous life. Those infrared rays look like, except that the rays are not red, but yellow.
As soon as the person entered it, Li Dai's high-spirited soul suddenly felt that there was a magical force pressing on her brain, making her have the urge to spit out all the secrets in her heart.
"Dai, it is a high-grade mantra bead. The bead is placed in the center of the stacked formation in the big room, which increases its power more than ten times. I am afraid that the soul of the Sanxian can only tell the truth in front of the room where this mantra bead is acting."
Xin Ling's voice sounded at the right time, letting Li Dai know that the yellow beads placed in the center of the ghost formation in the hall were actually mantra beads.
"Don't worry Dai, your soul is powerful beyond the control of the Mantra Pearl, so you only need to control the urge to say anything in your heart, and you will be fine." Xin Ling added.
I have to say that Xin Ling's words made Li Dai breathe a sigh of relief.
For some reason, Li Dai didn't want to reveal the fact that Wu Juechen obtained the Celestial Body inheritance and ate countless Tianzhi Holy Fruits, even though the old man and the others seemed harmless.
Knowing that she was special, Li Dai also relaxed. Compared to Li Dai's relaxation, Su Xueying's expression became more solemn.
After all, the old man Jiu Gourd sat on a high seat in the hall, looked at Li Dai and the others, and asked, "Tell me about your mission and what happened in the secret realm."
At this moment, Liu Se jumped out excitedly, "Senior Jiu, let her speak. She will speak first, telling how she killed more than thirty of her companions for personal gain." Looking at Su Xueying, Liu Se Liu Se simply hated her more than Shen Xiaoyun Dao Wuxia. If it weren't for the wrong location and the presence of the old man Jiu Gourd and the others, Liu Se would have been unable to control himself and would have pounced on her and tore her apart.
As soon as Liu Se's words came out, Shen Xiaoyun and Dao Wuxia looked at Su Xueying with a look of anger. The hatred in their eyes was so obvious that the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became solemn. The grandparents who had come to watch the fun also did not They were chatting happily and seemed to have noticed something. They all looked towards Su Xueying.
Li Dai's eyes naturally fell on Su Xueying, whose lips were trembling and she wanted to control herself but couldn't.
The following time was very short, but it felt very long. Listening to Su Xueying tell one by one how she killed her companions and what she thought at the time, the more you listened, the more frightening you became.
There are people who are so ugly and vicious, beyond everyone's imagination.
It would be understandable if it were some supreme treasure of heaven and earth that could harm people's lives, but on the way, there was a spirit-accumulating grass, which was just a higher-grade spirit-accumulating grass. In order to get it, Su Xueying actually sacrificed ten people. Cannon fodder, those ten people will die, just because Su Xueying got the Yunling Grass but was entangled by the ghost vine. In order to escape, she had to drag more people into the mouth of the ghost vine. The ghost vine was full. , she relaxed and she escaped happily.
At that time, both Liu Se and Dao Wuxia had memories of such things. They went to pick the Yunling Flower on the back of a dangerous cliff. When they went around, they could only look at the palm-wide cliff road. It was too dangerous, so most of them at that time People were waiting on the spot and did not follow Su Xueying. There were ten people who followed Su Xueying, all of whom were good at practicing the light body volley technique.
There were so many people who wanted to go somewhere, but only one person came back. She asked Su Xueying where she had gone. At that time, Su Xueying started to cry, saying that the others were attacked by unknown things and fell into the endless cliff one after another. She had been waiting for a long time. No one came up, so I came back in fear.
Now listening to her words, it was clearly Kito who was attacked by something unknown, and Kito caught him. She finally escaped, and everyone else died. It can be seen that she used some tricks during this period.
What specific method was used, the old man Jiu Gourd asked, but his old face was heavy and he was filled with murderous intent when he looked at Su Xueying.
