Qin Ming has been in Yunluo Forest for dang①months. He has been to many special teams, all of which are expedition teams that sneak into the Northern Territory by detouring through the sea and coming to Phantom Magic Heaven. There are also some ruthless people who act alone and are super strong. There are even powerful spirit monsters passing through Yunluo Forest and rushing to Phantom Spirit Fatian.
Yunluo Forest is very lively during this time.
But Qin Ming had never seen such a strange situation before. The huge ghost and the blood-red ship were so eerie that people shuddered. Not only were the mountains and rivers quiet, but the temperature dropped by several degrees. It was not cold, but bleak, and made him feel uncomfortable all over. .
But at this time, bursts of gloomy cold air floated in front of them, not falling from high altitude, but permeating from the depths of the dense forest.
Qin Ming spread his wings, picked up the white tiger, and retreated, lurking in the dark chu and observing with a frown.
Before the Yin Qi arrives, the white mist comes first!
The surrounding dense forest was shrouded in white mist, which was wet and cold, and the moss and weeds on the ground were covered with frost. Deep in the white mist, some women in red came silently, wearing bloody cloaks. , couldn't see his appearance clearly, his head was lowered, and he looked gloomy. The few people in front were holding lanterns and muttering something silently, like the voice of a ghost or the voice of a soul.
They appeared floating, their feet not touching the ground, silent and strange.
In this dark night, it was really scary to suddenly see such a scene. If you don't have a firm mind, you may really think you've seen a ghost.
The white tiger struggled violently and wanted to pounce on them. It was very sensitive to and disgusted with these gloomy and strange things.
Qin Ming gave it three violent blows and pressed it into the grass. These weirdos ① do not seem to be friendly, so try not to provoke them.
The white tiger was aggrieved and whined, but he still stared at the passing white mist with his bright black eyes.
'Nine ghosts pull the boat and float by in the moonlight. '
'White mist filled the air, and the woman in red walked in the forest with a lamp. '
These weirdos have bad intentions. Qin Ming did not dare to stay for a long time and retreated far away with Bai Hu.
Qingyun Sect! !
Sect Leader Li, Elder Yaoshan, Yun Mubai, and other elders all gathered in the square in front of Qingyun Palace, looking solemnly into the distance.
"Has it been found out?" Sect Master Li felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy, and his anger was ugly.
① An elder came quickly with some middle-aged disciples and said in a deep voice: "It's a flower funeral boat! Back then, it was the five ghosts who pulled the boat, but today it's the seven ghosts!"
The elders took deep breaths and exchanged surprised and doubtful glances.
The funeral boat represents a person, and that person represents a force, a terrifying and dark force from the deep chu of the sea - the Witch Palace!
Seven hundred years ago, the Wudian of the Samsara Sea gathered more than 30,000 people and landed on Watching Coast, triggering a catastrophe that swept across the Northern Territory. That was also a rare fierce battle in the history of the Northern Territory. Not only the entire Northern Territory Sect was dispatched, but even the five princes took a rare step to indirectly assist and jointly fight against the Witch Palace.
The royal family sat idly by and deliberately took this opportunity to consume the power of the Northern Territory. The war lasted for two years, and the 8th Sect of the Northern Territory suffered heavy casualties. All the five royal palaces were damaged, and more than fifty sects were destroyed. Although the Witch Palace was finally expelled from the Northern Territory, the shocking casualty figures made countless people talk about it. After this change, the Northern Sect felt the terror from the sea for the first time.
Although Sect Leader Li and others have not personally experienced it, what happened that year is clearly written in the history books, and they all present have read it.
Elder Yaoshan frowned: "The Sea Region Witch Temple has come to the North Region again after seven hundred years. What do you mean?"
① An elder said to himself: "It is recorded in the history books that there are nine witch masters and thirty-six ghost generals in the witch palace, who rule the sea of samsara. The funeral boat is the vehicle of Gong Ning, one of the nine witch masters, and it is also her palace. However, the Flower Burial Boat and the Witch Lord Gong Ning were both destroyed in the battle seven hundred years ago. Why are they reappearing now? Could it be that they are resurrected from the dead, or are they... a new Witch Lord!"
Sect Master Li said: "The Witch Palace is the overlord of the Sea of Reincarnation. Although it suffered heavy losses and lost five Witch Lords, its overall vitality was not damaged and its power in the sea is still there. Seven hundred years later, they should have almost recovered. This time I am afraid that I came in blatantly to send a signal to the Northern Territory that they... are back!"
①An elder said: "Do they still want to start a war with the Northern Territory again? The Northern Territory now is no longer the Northern Territory of the past."
The elder beside him sighed: "Since you dare to come, you have someone to rely on. Maybe, they are no longer the witch palace they used to be."
Yun Mubai said: "Whether it is the resurrected Gong Ning or the new witch master who comes this time, he must be coming with bad intentions. We should give other sects a warning, otherwise when the witch palace lands in Binhai again, our Qingyun The sect will bear the brunt.”
①A middle-aged disciple asked: "Are they just coming to the Phantom Magic Heaven?"
Sect Leader Li said: "There is no use guessing now. Since the Flower Burial Boat has reappeared in the Northern Territory, it is a special signal. We cannot sit idly by and ignore it. Elder Mubai, you have worked hard and personally led people to keep an eye on the Flower Burial Boat. .I will write a letter now to remind other sects."
Elder Yaoshan said: "Send seals to the branches of the Holy Church and the three princes' palaces. Since they are in the Northern Territory, they should work together to protect the Northern Territory."
Thunder Ancient City!
In the silent afternoon, the prosperity gradually ceases. Except for a few restaurants and manors, which were still brightly lit, the light was gone.
The soldiers guarding the city patrolled the generous city wall with jingles, looking at the endless wilderness and the silent sky.
During this period of time, teams continued to rush out of the Yunluo Forest and break into the Northern Territory, looking for the entrance to Phantom Fatian. But basically no one dares to step into the control area of Thunder Ancient City, let alone stay in the wilderness around Thunder Ancient City. Moreover, there was an endless stream of people giving gifts. Every time a team came to knock on the door, they would take the initiative to give some gifts to them who were guarding the city, some of which were valuable.
They are very proud! Thunder Ancient City is finally proud.
but…
"What is that? Look in the direction of Yunluo Forest!"
① A centurion suddenly reminded him, holding on to his silver spear and pointing it into the distance.
①A dark cloud floated out of Yunluo Forest under the pale moonlight and appeared over the wilderness. There is a faint sound of wind chimes between the sky and the earth, and there is a hint of cold air. The temperature is constantly dropping. Looking from a distance, in the wilderness shrouded by dark clouds, the grass and wild flowers are covered with frost.
"Is it some strong man? He came to the Northern Territory to hunt for treasure?"
"Fart! Who dares to appear in the sky of the Northern Territory so ostentatiously?"
"Brace yourselves! Why do I feel that dark clouds are drifting towards us?"
At the gate of the North City, hundreds of guards clenched their swords and stood ready. A centurion ran to the bell tower, ready to sound the alarm at any time.
① People murmured: "Who dares to come to our Thunder Ancient City to act wild? They should just pass by."
Before he finished speaking, the three stone statues in Beicheng District moved slowly, and the rumble of stones rubbing against each other was clear and harsh under the dim curtain.
The guards on the city wall turned pale and looked at the stone statue.
The 100-meter-tall statues are more than half the height of the city wall. They are as majestic and majestic as mountains. They are covered with silver moonlight, majestic and overwhelming. Normally, the guards would worship them every day, because with their presence, Thunder Ancient City would be safe and sound.
But now...
They actually moved
Why are they moving? Could it be that he sensed danger
The guards swallowed hard. The last thing they wanted to see was the awakening of the statues of the kings, because that would herald a fierce battle.
Crunch! Boom!
The three statues woke up, their stone eyes turning and glowing. They grasped giant weapons, moved their stiff bodies, and headed towards the direction of Yunluo Forest.
At the same time, the other stone statues guarding Thunder Ancient City, and the three statues around Bao Kuo City Mansion, all woke up in the early hours of the afternoon. They moved their steps, cracking the ground, and the dull rumbling sound woke up the entire ancient city.
"Ouch!!"
The stone dragon roared, the dragon's yin shook the sky, and the roaring sound swept across the world. The momentum was violent and domineering, like a real dragon reappearing its divine power. The king statue on the stone dragon swung the giant knife and pointed it into the distance. A burst of killing power shot into the sky, shattering the silent afternoon and distorting the surrounding space.
Everyone inside and outside the city woke up, hurriedly put on their clothes and rushed out of the room. When they saw the king's statue regaining consciousness, their expressions changed, they were frightened and had trouble breathing. what happened? Who awakened the silent kings!
Their Thunder Ancient City has just settled down, is it going to face another threat
