"Your Excellency said that this is the land of the underworld. Does this have anything to do with the rumored world of the underworld? Where is this place? The mana on our bodies has been banned. Is there any way to restore it? Most importantly, the following I don't want to stay here, but I want to go back outside, and I want to ask the elder to point out a clear way." Han Li frowned, and then asked with a long breath.
"Go back? If we could go back easily, we people would still stay here and live this precarious life every day? You know, most people here live in this dark place when they are born, and only a very small number of them Like you and me, they were sucked into this place by the strange fog. Most outsiders were swallowed by those ghost beasts as soon as they entered this place. Only the lucky ones survived due to various reasons and escaped to the In the village. Our relatives and friends are also outside." The old man shook his head and said with a sigh.
After hearing these words, Han Li was speechless for a moment!
"As for what exactly is here, is it related to the realm of the underworld? Who knows? However, many seniors who came here before us have guessed about this. One is similar to what fellow Taoists said, thinking that This place should be a space crack where the world of the underworld and the human world meet, so there is such a strong yin energy here, but it cannot form too powerful yin beasts."
"The other kind thinks that there is no Netherworld at all in this world, it's just some monks spreading rumors. They think that this place should be in the belly of the legendary monster--Rahu. Only the legend can swallow the sun and the moon, and can This magical beast that shuttles through the air in an instant can explain the strange fog that will appear in different sea areas, and every few years, this place will communicate with the outside world. You must know that the legendary Luo magical beast also likes to hide in the depths of the sea by nature. It's been a long time since I ate once."
"Luo Demonic Beast? How is it possible! This Demonic Beast is even more unreliable than the Underworld. I don't think there is such a beast in our world." Hearing the old man's hypothesis, Han Li's expression changed drastically.
"That's right. When I first heard this statement, I was as shocked as Fellow Daoist. But I have to say that although this conjecture is absurd, it is indeed somewhat possible. If it is true that space cracks often open, it should be At a certain point in the outside world, it is a constant opening, but in fact, every time the land of the underworld communicates with the outside world, the people sucked in come from several different sea areas. Between each other, these people I have never even heard of the names of other sea areas. For example, the one below is from the small island of Nanzhou in Dajin Dynasty Bay, and the other monks are from Wulong Sea, some from the coast of Tiansha Continent, and The ones are from the Chaotic Star Sea. Before everyone knew each other, most of them didn’t know where the sea area the other party was talking about was.” The old man said leisurely.
"Great Jin Dynasty! Fellow Daoist is a monk from the Jin Kingdom?" Han Li showed a trace of surprise. This is exactly the name of the super empire he heard when he was in Tiannan.
"Could it be that Fellow Daoist is also from our Great Jin Dynasty?" The old man's eyes lit up immediately.
"That's not true. However, Mr. Han has heard people talk about it once or twice, and knows that it is a huge country! I have always yearned for it, but it is a pity that I have no chance to go." Han Li shook his head and said.
"That's it! It's really a pity. I really hope that the old man will have a chance to go back!" The old man showed a bit of disappointment.
"Hey! If fellow Taoists go to our Dajin, you will know what the real world of cultivating immortals is. As far as I know, although there are many other areas where immortal cultivators haunt, none of them can compare with our Dajin. It can have such a scale and prosperity. It is no exaggeration to say that our Great Jin Kingdom is the holy place for monks in this world." When he mentioned his hometown, the old man beamed with joy.
Han Li rubbed his nose. Although he was waiting with a wry smile on his face, he was moved by what the other party said.
"Hehe, what the old man said is a bit off topic. Fellow Daoist just asked if there is a way to restore mana and supernatural powers here. I can tell fellow Daoist clearly that as long as you stay in this dark place, don't imagine that your previous supernatural powers can come back. In addition to the dark air here, there is also a kind of what we call the extremely spiritual air. They are usually deep in the lungs of the earth, but they will erupt from the depths of the ground at regular intervals, permeating the entire space. Inside. As long as you are a monk, if you are in their range of influence, you will lose all your mana and supernatural powers. This is unsolvable. You were sucked in this time, didn’t it happen that the cracks opened and the qi of the ultimate spirit erupted at the same time? Is it?" The old man said with a slight smile.
Hearing the old man mention this matter, Han Li felt depressed for a while. If it hadn't been for this kind of unlucky thing, he wouldn't have been taken in by a mere ghost mist, and he would have gone there for a long time.
"After entering this place, is there really no hope of getting out? I still don't believe it!" Han Li was silent for a while, and said unwillingly.
"You can't say that, the way to get out is put there grandiosely, but someone needs to be able to do it!" The old man twisted his beard and said calmly.
"What method?" Han Li was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked.
At the side, Mei Ning, who was looking red and white, couldn't help being refreshed when she heard the old man's previous words.
"This..." The old man didn't reply right away, but showed a hint of hesitation and pondering.
"Why, fellow daoist, is there any inconvenience?" Han Li's expression moved, revealing a strange expression.
"Don't get me wrong, you two, there is nothing to hide! Although I hope that there will be one or two more monks in the village, I will not purely make things difficult for you. I am just afraid that the two fellow Taoists are eager to go out, but You lost your life in vain!" The old man narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw the changes in Han Li and Mei Ning's expressions, and said with deep meaning.
Hearing this, Han Li was taken aback for a moment, but immediately laughed lightly.
"Don't worry, although Mr. Han looks young, he is also a monk who has practiced for many years. He will not act recklessly. If there is something that cannot be done, I will never die rashly. However, Mr. Han still wants to listen to what fellow Taoists have to say first. Let's see what the difficulty is." Han Li asked solemnly after his smile faded.
"Since fellow daoists have said this, the old man will not hide anymore." The fat old man thought for a while, but agreed, walked out of the hall, stood at the door and looked up into the distance, wondering what he was thinking .
…
"Brother Han, what are we going to do? Are you really going to climb the Storm Mountain?" Mei Ning asked while standing behind Han Li, biting her red lips. At this time, her face was extremely pale. The escape method she told the old man was completely desperate, thinking that it was impossible to achieve this condition.
"I haven't thought about it yet, but I will try." Han Li looked at the sky and said calmly.
When Mei Ning heard this, her expression changed, and when she was about to say something more, there were footsteps approaching the two of them. A dark boy aged fifteen or sixteen came over curiously.
"The two are newcomers. I followed the elder's order and took the two to the residence. Because the two are newcomers, the food for the first three days is free, but after that, they have to go on missions. Otherwise, you will have to leave the village and fend for yourself." The young man said skillfully, staring at his dark eyes.
"Okay, you lead the way!" Han Li said noncommittally.
The boy nodded, stopped talking nonsense, and led the two of them directly to a corner of the village. After a while, the boy brought the two of them into a fairly tidy stone house.
When Mei Ning saw that in the house, there was only one stone bed that could barely sleep two people, her face turned red immediately.
"Why is there only one bed here?" The woman asked the boy hesitantly.
"When a man and a woman are together, don't they just want to sleep in the same bed?" The boy blinked, but asked in a strange way.
After hearing this, Mei Ning blushed even more. Although she wanted to explain something, she couldn't speak for a while.
"Let's sleep separately, just bring a stone bed." Han Li looked at the outer room at this moment, turned his head and said to the young man indifferently.
The boy pouted, although he was a little reluctant, he agreed and walked out.
"Take a rest first, I'll go to other places in the village to have a look around first!" Han Li said to the woman as soon as the young man went out. There was a hint of bewilderment on Mei Ningyu's face, but then she nodded silently without saying anything.
Han Li walked out of the room without hesitation, looked around for a while, and then strode towards the high stone platform in the middle. He is still very interested in the method of manipulating the power of the underworld.
There were no guards around the stone platform, so Han Li approached the stone platform easily. Because of the extremely high stone platform, the steps built on the side of the stone platform are scary steep.
After Han Li walked around the stone platform several times, he walked up it easily.
