Above the smallest first-level vortex, there are larger second-level vortexes and third-level vortexes.
For Long Yu, neither the first-level whirlpool nor the second-level whirlpool would pose a threat to his life, but if he was caught in the third-level whirlpool, he would be completely destroyed and even his heart of magic dust would be crushed, leaving him with no chance of rebirth.
As for Hong Ying, she is much stronger after all and can completely withstand the stranglehold of the first three levels of whirlpools. However, the third level whirlpool will also cause serious damage to her, making her basically lose her combat effectiveness in a short period of time.
Once involved, it will be very troublesome for anyone.
Fortunately, both of them have now practiced balance control, and their ability to sense and detect residual whirlpools exceeds that of most other people. They just need to move forward carefully, lest they fail to slow down and crash into the whirlpool, which would be a tragedy.
Above the third-level vortex, there is a fourth-level vortex, a fifth-level vortex, and so on, all the way to the ninth-level vortex. The ninth-level vortex is the largest vortex, and its destructive power is extremely amazing. Even if a strong man with a very strong body in the realm of the great master is caught in it, there is no way of survival.
Fortunately, the larger the residual vortex, the more obvious its aura is, and the more likely it is that Long Yu and Hong Ying can detect it from a distance. Of course, if it were other practitioners who had not practiced secret methods to enhance spiritual detection such as Balance Control, then they would find it difficult to detect even the largest ninth-level vortex.
Balanced control has a special property that allows Long Yu and Hong Ying to sense and detect the existence of residual vortexes of the galaxy explosion. It is not just as simple as simply enhancing spiritual perception.
In the tomb of the Thunder and Fire Demon Saint, the two of them definitely have a huge advantage over other practitioners.
"If we come into conflict with other practitioners, it will be easy to deal with. We can directly lure them to collide with the remaining vortex. Even the easiest to detect ninth-level vortex cannot be detected by ordinary practitioners."
Hongying narrowed her eyes and had already imagined what would happen in the near future. If there was a conflict with others, there would be something interesting to watch.
The difference between practicing balanced control and not practicing balanced control is very obvious to Hong Ying. Her spiritual perception was not weak before, but it was definitely stronger than Long Yu's. However, she could not feel the existence of the residual vortex at all.
Now that she has cultivated the third level of balance control, she can sense and detect the residual vortex. It can be seen that this martial arts secret method has some special features.
"Well, it'd be better if there aren't any blind guys who come to mess with us, otherwise I wouldn't mind teaching them a lesson."
Long Yu also thought of the interesting point and couldn't help but smile with his eyes narrowed. The ability to balance and master this martial arts secret technique was really an excellent tool for exploring the tomb of the Thunder and Fire Demon Saint!
Of course, even so, the two were not careless at all, but moved slowly and cautiously towards the depths of the Demon Saint's Tomb.
"Look over there."
After a while, the two finally met a team of demon cultivators who had entered the Demon Saint's Tomb before them. There were a total of twelve people in that team of demon cultivators, all of whom were masters of the secret realm, or at least lower-level masters. Among them there were two powerful demon cultivators at the upper-level master level.
The twelve people followed closely and advanced in the void of the Demon Saint's Tomb. Although they could not detect the existence of the residual vortex like Long Yu and Hong Ying, they had their own ways to ensure their own safety.
Almost every one of the twelve demon cultivators could use the method of mirror clones, and surround them with thousands of mirror clones above, below, left and right, at a distance of about one thousand feet.
Surrounded by thousands of mirror clones, the twelve demon cultivators moved forward slowly. From time to time, a mirror clone would touch the hidden residual vortex, and then be sucked in and strangled and shattered. Then the twelve demon cultivators would change their positions and move forward in another direction.
Although it is impossible for other people to practice the heaven-defying martial arts secret method of balanced control, they can still come up with various ways to detect residual vortexes. The simplest one is the mine-sweeping method similar to this mirror clone.
Eighty percent of the teams of cultivators that broke into the Demon Saint's Tomb were using this method to advance step by step. Their safety could be guaranteed to a certain extent, but their advancement speed was really not satisfactory.
The speed of Long Yu and Hong Ying was already slow enough, but they were still ten times faster than such a team.
On the other hand, in order to maintain so many mirror clones, their own energy consumption is also very serious. If they encounter any conflict, they will not be able to exert their full combat power when they want to fight, and the situation is still quite dangerous.
Relatively speaking, Long Yu and Hong Ying's situation is much better than these people, and their advancement speed is ten times faster than theirs. If there really is colorful crystal powder deep in the entire tomb, Long Yu and Hong Ying still have a great chance to get a piece of the pie.
Soon, an hour had passed since Long Yu and Hong Ying stepped into the Demon Saint's Tomb. They advanced more than ten miles into the depths of the Demon Saint's Tomb. Ordinary spiritual detection was completely ineffective here. For example, Long Yu's Shadow Eye, he could only rely on balance control to detect the situation within a thousand feet around him.
At this time, the two finally detected that something special had occurred not far from them.
Several teams of demon cultivators, with a total of hundreds of people, were all gathered in a void not far away. In that void, there was actually a remnant mark of a small world!
"It's the mark of a small world. It seems to be the remnant of a powerful person who was strangled by the galaxy explosion in this tomb thousands of years ago. It's lucky that this small world was not annihilated in the galaxy explosion. Now it has become the object of competition among these people."
Hongying felt a little emotional.
A small world has existed from thousands of years ago to the present. Even if its owner is dead, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the power of creation must have been exhausted long ago. Perhaps there are some cultivation resources, creations, etc. preserved by its owner during his lifetime.
Therefore, the mark of this small world has become the object of contention among others. There are four or five groups in total, and they are arguing fiercely. I'm afraid a fight will break out in a while.
"How about it, Brother Long? Are you interested in the small world? Although it is very likely that this small world is already in ruins, there may still be some treasures preserved in it."
Hongying asked Long Yu. She herself was not very interested in the mark of this small world.
Long Yu narrowed his eyes, he remembered the remains of the small world of the sufferer that he encountered in the Nine Netherworld. He got a lot of precious things from the remains of the small world of the sufferer, even four priceless treasures, the rainbow stone eggs, all of which were obtained from them.
From this, it can be seen that there may be some good things hidden in the wreckage of the small world. Thinking of this, Long Yu certainly did not want to miss this opportunity.
"Go ahead and try your luck. There might be some extremely precious treasures in the remains of this small world, which may even be more valuable than the things in the Demon Saint's tomb..."
Long Yu said, and then Hong Ying also became eager to try.
"Well, among those hundreds of people, none of them is a great master. The strongest ones are only about ten upper masters. I can make them run around in circles by myself. You should go straight to the small world mark. After you succeed, we will meet up in front."
Hongying came up with a battle plan without much thought.
"good."
Long Yu nodded. He only needed to be responsible for getting the mark of the small world. He didn't need to consider other competitors. He believed that Hong Ying would hold those people back for him.
Moreover, even if those people catch up with him, Long Yu is not without the ability to protect himself. It should not be a big problem for him to hold on for a short period of time.
For the two of them, this was just a small action. Compared with the colorful crystal powder that might exist in the end, the remains of this small world could only be regarded as an appetizer.
Therefore, the two of them did not make too much preparation. Moreover, hundreds of people over there had already sensed the presence of Long Yu and Hong Ying. The longer it dragged on, the longer it would take for the other party to be prepared, and it would not be so easy to succeed at that time.
The two flew towards the place where the mark of the small world was located, and the hundreds of demon cultivators all looked at them vigilantly.
Originally they were discussing how to distribute the treasures among the hundreds of people if there were any remaining treasures in the wreckage of the small world, but now, Long Yu and Hong Ying flying over might disrupt their plans.
"A superior master and a four-star emperor would never dare to rob in front of so many of us. However, I don't want to give more of our things to outsiders."
One of the powerful men in the upper master realm said in a deep voice that the reason why hundreds of people could peacefully discuss the distribution method was because the strength of their four or five groups was balanced.
But Long Yu and Hong Ying seemed too weak, so they didn't want to share things with them at all, so they definitely wanted to drive them away.
However, before these hundreds of people could react, Hongying, who had transformed into a lively girl in red, immediately took action.
"Mystical power, bloody fantasy world!"
The bloody illusion world, the emperor's magical power, Hong Ying raised her hand and displayed the strongest emperor's magical power, instantly covering the entire void in blood, and endless murderous aura spread, covering the hundreds of demon cultivators!
From this bloody void, blood-red ghosts and spirits kept appearing, rushing towards the hundreds of people with their fangs and claws.
The hundreds of practitioners reacted almost at the same time and launched an attack on Hongying immediately. However, they didn't know that they had already been dragged into the illusion by Hongying!
Their attacks all bombarded into the void, hitting nothing. Hongying leisurely watched the chaotic scene of these people from a distance.
As for Long Yu, he relied on the Book of Shadows to transform himself into a light breeze and passed through the hundreds of people. He soon approached the mark of the small world. It was a grayish-white stone that contained the power of a decadent world!
