The Ominous Place (the Third Update!)
Chapter 552: Ominous Land (Third Update!)
"Spiritual Conference?"
The Black Tiger God was quite puzzled, as he had never heard of this word. Si Yunxiang took out a large stack of blueprints and spread them out on the tower. These blueprints were painted with various runes and marks.
"This is a technique created by the leader and the divine master of Yankang. It was named Sanyuan Shenhui Jue by the emperor."
Si Yunxiang searched for a while and found Qin Mu's soul mark, so she took out cinnabar and a brush, melted the cinnabar, and painted on the pillar of the tower, drawing Qin Mu's soul mark: "The leader once imprinted everyone's soul mark in the Imperial Academy Hall, including his own soul mark. The soul meeting is to attract one's own soul through the soul mark and gather everyone's soul to discuss matters."
Ling Yuxiu took out a stick of incense, inserted it under the Yuanshen mark, lit it, and said, "This incense is made by the cowherd using the soul-drawing magic to attract the Yuanshen. We plan to use the soul-drawing incense and the Yuanshen mark to sense his Yuanshen, lead his Yuanshen here, and ask about his whereabouts."
The two girls looked at each other, Si Yunxiang's vitality bloomed, lighting up Qin Mu's soul mark, while Ling Yuxiu wrapped the fragrance of the soul-guiding incense with her vitality and poured it into the soul mark.
Everyone in the building waited quietly, watching the burning soul-guiding incense. The incense was faint and the fragrance was not strong, it was even very light.
The time of a stick of incense is not long. As the soul-guiding incense burned down bit by bit, everyone felt a little uneasy. The soul mark and the soul-guiding incense would resonate with Qin Mu's soul. Qin Mu could come here to meet them by activating the Three Souls Meeting Technique.
But if Qin Mu encountered an accident, he would not come to meet him.
When most of the soul-guiding incense had burned out, there was still no movement. Everyone was secretly anxious when suddenly a gust of wind came and blew into the city wall.
Everyone was delighted, only to see that Qin Mu's soul in the building was looming and unstable.
"Master, where are you?"
Long Qilin was overjoyed and hurriedly shouted, "I have finished eating the elixir you prepared, come back quickly!"
Qin Mu was surprised and asked, "I prepared three or four months' supply for you. Why have you finished it now?"
"This..." Long Qilin was speechless.
Hu Ling'er hurriedly said, "Sir, we are searching for you. Where are you now?"
Qin Mu shook his head and said, "I don't know either. In the Demon Tribe's territory, there is no sun, moon, or stars in the sky. I can't tell the direction, and I don't know where I am. I was abducted by the Sun Binding Luo, and I finally escaped. Now I am being hunted by the elite of the Demon Tribe, and my soul cannot stay here for long."
Everyone frowned.
Sang Hua suddenly said, "Brother Daguzi, take a look at the directions of the mountains around you, write them down, and then see if there are any cities around. My Taihuang Heaven has sixty-four divine cities, each with a different name, and the directions of the mountains nearby are also different. Whether you know the directions of the mountains or the names of the divine cities, you can determine the direction."
Qin Mu's soul picked up the cinnabar pen and drew on the ground, quickly drawing the mountains near where he was, and said, "I didn't see the city of gods."
Sang Huan, Yu He and other powerful practitioners from Taihuangtian came forward to watch and shook their heads. They were young and had never been to the demon territory.
"I'll go call my dad!" Sang Huan left in a hurry.
Suddenly, Qin Mu's spirit dimmed: "The enemy is here, I want to go back!"
Suddenly, a strong wind blew away from the tower, and his soul disappeared without a trace. Not long after, Sang Hua came with the Mulberry Leaf God. The Mulberry Leaf God carefully examined the mountain and river map that Qin Mu had transformed into, and after a moment of recollection, he said in a lost voice: "He is near the lair of the demon clan! The Liyang Mountains next to Guimei City!"
Yu He frowned and said, "Guimei City? Wasn't that sacred city destroyed? I heard that it has become an ominous place..."
Lord Sang Ye nodded and said, "When the demons invaded, they first appeared in Guimei City and completely destroyed it. In front of the Liyang Mountains is the battlefield of Guimei City, which was the most cruel and bloody battlefield in the history of the great wars between gods and demons in Taihuangtian. Thousands of gods and demons died there! The number of Taihuangtian and demon masters who died or were injured is even more countless! If he goes forward, he will enter that ominous place!"
Ling Yuxiu was puzzled and asked: "Why do you say that place is an ominous place?"
Lord Sang Ye said, "Too many gods and demons died in the battle. The blood of gods and demons gathered together to form an extremely strange area. There are gods and demons with unyielding wills, as well as souls who died unjustly with curses and demonic nature. The number of supernatural powers and gods and demons who died in the battle there was so large that it was brightly lit when night fell."
He revealed a trace of fear and said, "The night is lit up by lanterns. The lanterns are hung on small boats. Those boats come from the Nether City. Countless old ghost messengers holding lanterns appear in the battlefield, turning the place into a ghost den and taking away the dead souls. At that time, I had not yet cultivated to the divine realm. I was just a small soldier in that battle..."
After the war, the world was extremely desolate. The young Lord Mulberry Leaf was severely injured in the battle, and it was already late when he woke up.
When he crawled out from the pile of dead bodies, he saw a scene that he would never forget. Small boats with lanterns hanging on them came from the darkness. Under the lanterns on the boats were thousands of old men who looked exactly the same. They came to Taihuangtian silently and harvested souls on the battlefield.
Those old men did not make a sound, but in the battlefield in the night, there were countless undead souls howling and roaring, unwilling to fall into the underworld. However, without exception, they were captured by those ghostly old men, and drifted into the darkness on small boats!
He will never forget that scene!
"The broken soul was not taken away by the ghost. Over time, it became an ominous place. Many strange things happened there, and many strange things were hidden there."
Mulberry Leaf God calmed down and continued, "Later, both Taihuangtian and the demons gave up on that place. If Patriarch Qin continued to move forward, he would step into this ominous land."
Long Qilin suddenly shouted, "When the blood of gods and demons mix, terrible things like the root monster of Kuji Ridge will be born! Hurry up and inform the leader to avoid that place!"
Mulberry Leaf God asked, "How strong is the root monster of Kuji Mountain?"
"Probably equivalent to a strong person in the realm of life and death."
Mulberry Leaf God sneered and said, "It should be just a little guy. There are some things in the ominous land that are much more powerful than the magical powers of the life and death realm. Notify him as soon as possible and let him avoid that place!"
Ling Yuxiu and Si Yunxiang hurriedly contacted Qin Mu again, but this time, even after the soul-calling incense burned out, Qin Mu still did not respond.
"He must have encountered an enemy and had no time to respond! This is bad!"
Si Yunxiang said quickly: "Those enemies must be extremely powerful, and they might even force him into an ominous place!"
The Black Tiger God stood up and said resolutely: "I will go there and pick him up!"
Mulberry Leaf God shook his head and said, "You can't go. The journey is too long and there are too many variables. If you encounter the devil on the way, you will die there too. You'd better stay here and wait quietly for his soul to respond, hoping that he can get out of the ominous place. Only by getting out of the ominous place can you have a chance to survive."
The Black Tiger God frowned and shook his head, saying, "I lost him. I must find him!"
Si Yunxiang and Ling Yuxiu looked at each other and said in unison: "We'll go with you!"
"And me!" Hu Ling'er raised her tail and looked at Long Qilin.
Long Qilin hesitated for a moment, Hu Ling'er's eyes flickered, and she said softly: "Long Pang, if you can't find the young master, you will have to starve."
Long Qilin suddenly became more energetic: "Count me in!"
Sang Hua looked at her father and said, "Dad, they are unfamiliar with the place..."
Mulberry Leaf God was in a great headache and said, "Be careful. On the second day after you go deep into the demon tribe, I will lead the troops to attack and attract the attention of the demon tribe. Then you will be safer."
At the edge of the ominous land, the Demon Fire Nightmare Horse under Qin Mu's seat let out a wail and its legs were cut off by a series of sword lights. A demon with magical powers broke open the horse's belly and rushed towards Qin Mu on horseback.
Qin Mu jumped up and pressed his palm downwards, smashing both the man and the horse to pieces with one blow.
call--
An old woman came charging at him carrying a large gourd on her back. The gourd was filled with blood that drowned him. The blood was smelly and swirled wildly, turning into a bloody python that tightly wrapped around Qin Mu, strangling him so hard that his bones crackled.
The array patterns in Qin Mu's eyes were spinning wildly, and the sun rose from the galaxy. With a hum, two rays of light slashed forward, one cutting off the snake's head and the other cutting off the old woman's neck.
A Rakshasa scorpion woman swung out her tail hook like a long whip, and the poisonous hook pierced Qin Mu's shoulder, threw him high up, and slammed him hard on the ground. Another demon boy carrying eight large flags on his back bowed to Qin Mu who had landed on the ground, and the eight large flags flew out and were inserted around Qin Mu.
“Devil Link Mountain Formation! Suppress, suppress, suppress, suppress, suppress, suppress!”
The young demon shouted eight times in succession, and eight phantoms of huge mountains fell from the sky, making eight loud bangs that shook the earth.
Suddenly, countless stars flashed in the shadows of the eight mountains, transforming into a strange Daluo Tianxing force field. Qin Mu slapped out with one palm, and the eight mountains shattered.
He rushed out from the flag formation and saw more than a dozen knife balls spinning madly and flying towards him. He hurriedly slapped his palm and a huge word "Ding" appeared in the air. The dozen knife balls were fixed in the air. The next moment, the knife balls started to spin and countless magic knives shot out from them, chopping the word "Ding" into pieces!
Qin Mu turned around, stepped into the Gangdou, and narrowly avoided countless magic swords. The sword ball flew up and was held in his hand and swept against the wind, shattering countless magic swords.
More than a dozen demon soldiers with three heads and four arms rushed over, you advance and I retreat, you attack and I defend, and we killed Qin Mu madly.
Qin Mu resisted repeatedly, but was hit by dozens of attacks in the blink of an eye. He quickly escaped underground. The dozen or so four-armed demons pressed their hands on the ground together, and the ground rumbled and bulged, forcing him out from the ground.
Qin Mu leaped into the air, fell with a loud bang, and moved like a dragon and a snake, rushing into a large swamp in front of him.
Many demon soldiers chased to the edge of the lake, and suddenly stopped, frowning.
"What should we do? Should we go in?" a demon with magical powers whispered.
Qin Mu walked into the swamp and looked around. He saw that it was thick with fog and filled with demonic energy. Under the clear water, there were corpses floating. On the swamp ground that occasionally emerged from the water, there were corpses with only skeletons left and some rusty spiritual weapons.
He thought for a while, came to a swamp, gently tapped the bones on the ground, and said with a smile: "Brother, how do we get here?"
The withered skeleton sat up straight, turned its head to look at him, and opened and closed its mouth: "This is the road to the underworld. There is no return once you go."
