The old man in yellow who was running ahead couldn't help but pause when he heard this. He turned around and saw the four people who were still standing there. Then he frowned and said in a low voice, "A bunch of rubbish!"
Although the old man in yellow said this, he really couldn't just abandon these four people.
Before, it was because he was too excited and agitated. His mind was always thinking about the big things that were going to happen later, as well as the long-standing longing for his hometown. After saying those words to the four people, he forgot about them.
Then the old man in yellow threw his sleeves behind him, and a stream of black smoke, like a long rope, directly wrapped the four people behind him, and then pulled them into the distant sky and flew away quickly...
About thirty breaths later, a deafening roar was heard throughout the entire South China Sea, and the originally clear sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds.
The sea surface, which was originally slightly rippled, suddenly changed. The overwhelming tsunami rolled up thousands of waves, and the waves rising from the sea were thousands of feet high.
No matter how far apart they were, all the creatures on the islands felt a destructive force rising from the depths of the sea.
Under the dark sky, at a certain place, a black light column that was dozens of miles long shot up into the sky, connecting with the lead-like oppressive black clouds in the sky, and even had the tendency to pull the black clouds in the sky down to the sea surface.
The small island where the five old men in yellow had been had already turned into nothingness, as if it had never appeared in this world. It disappeared completely without a sound, and only a huge black hole appeared on the ground where the island used to be.
The strange thing is that the huge waves rolling up from all sides could not flow into the giant hole at all, but only roared around the black giant hole.
In the pitch-black cave, streams of icy black smoke kept rising into the sky. Under the black smoke, a vortex covered with ancient runes was slowly spinning. As these ancient runes were spinning, a black object like a tangled mess slowly floated up.
When I say "slowly", this is only compared to the raging waves crashing against the shore and the rising black smoke. In fact, it only took half a breath for most of the thing to be revealed.
Upon closer inspection, he turned out to be a skinny man in black with long hair, who looked like a skeleton. His clothes might not have been black originally, but over the years, they had turned into strands of black cloth, hanging on his dry body, like a scarecrow in the field after the season had passed.
This person's long hair covered his face. As his body continued to rise, his skinny body looked abnormally tall, but his long hair kept hanging down, also seemingly endlessly long.
The man in black, who had been keeping his head down, "slowly" floated up. When most of his body was exposed, he slowly raised his face, letting his long hair slide down a little to both sides of his cheeks. It was a face full of wrinkles and extremely old.
The wrinkles were like the dry bark on an old tree. He looked greedily at everything in front of him, and then an old voice came out hoarsely from his throat.
“Master, the formation you and the two uncles used your essence and blood to form finally allowed us to return to the human world. I have fulfilled your orders and brought them back… In the remaining years, I will take back the heaven and earth that originally belonged to us.
The most important thing is to find that hidden space and take back our treasure...
We, return to the world... "
As soon as the old man in black finished speaking, he soared into the sky, raising clouds of black smoke.
Then, two more people in black clothes and long hair rushed out from the black hole vortex. Looking down the vortex, densely packed skinny figures emerged, at least four to five hundred people.
Greed and blood were in their eyes, and they sang, "If I lose my hometown, my land will be desolate; if I find my body, I will be floating in the water; if the flying horse comes, the river of blood will flow..."
The hatred in his voice is endless...
With a "boom" sound, Li Yan felt a bright light in front of his eyes, and his spiritual consciousness had arrived between a silver sky and earth.
Looking at the scenes around him, Li Yan was overjoyed, but he still felt a little dizzy, which was the result of overdrawing his spiritual consciousness.
"If I hadn't been promoted to the Fake Pill this time, I would still be helpless with this silver paper."
Just now, Li Yan had used up 90% of his spiritual sense, which was comparable to the powerful spiritual sense of the middle stage of the Golden Core. This time, his spiritual sense was about to be bounced back by the restriction on the silver paper.
Li Yan instantly forced all his spiritual consciousness to concentrate on one point, forming a black spiritual consciousness spike. Finally, with this blow, he finally entered the silver paper.
Li Yan looked around with full alertness. He always planned things before taking action. The moment his spiritual consciousness broke through the silver paper restriction, he immediately separated most of his spiritual consciousness and returned it to his body.
Only a trace of his spiritual consciousness remained inside the silver paper. If the situation inside the silver paper was worse than he could imagine, he would at most lose this trace of spiritual consciousness, but his soul would never suffer serious damage.
If that were the result, he would be miserable.
Unexpectedly, the situation in the silver paper was beyond Li Yan's imagination. To be precise, it was beyond any situation that Li Yan had imagined before.
First of all, his consciousness was not attacked at all. Instead, the entire space inside the silver paper was unexpectedly quiet. The surroundings were all silvery white, and nothing could be seen in the vastness. According to Li Yan's thinking, there was a 50% chance that he was attacked when his consciousness penetrated the silver paper.
Or, there would be many words or runes appearing. More than 80% of the monks fighting for it in the tower believed that the silver paper was similar to a jade slip, and it should be engraved with some kind of martial arts, magic, or secret method of refining formations or weapons.
But none of this was issued or appeared.
Li Yan was on guard and began to move quickly inside the silver paper. After a while, Li Yan helplessly discovered that he gained nothing.
"This silver paper was previously activated with spiritual power and spells when it could not be opened. It should not be any type of magic weapon or talisman. Could it be..."
Li Yan had long ago determined that these three pieces of silver paper were not magic weapons or talismans. Now that he had gained nothing, he couldn't help but think of the magic weapons in the hands of the demons, which he was also unable to control.
For a moment, I thought it was possible. After all, the origin of the Beiming Demon-Suppressing Tower is mysterious, and its refining time should be traced back to a long, long time ago.
Moreover, the function of the Beiming Demon Suppression Tower itself should be a magic weapon refined to suppress the souls of demons and monsters. It is not impossible that the original owner of the Beiming Demon Suppression Tower accepted some demons into the tower.
Once these demons are refined in the tower, they may leave behind the magic weapons they have used, which will eventually be scattered throughout the tower. Thinking about this, it is not surprising.
In this case, the silver paper that so many monks are fighting for is just a piece of waste paper, useless.
Of course, these are all Li Yan's speculations. He will definitely not let it go so easily. A wisp of his spiritual consciousness still remains in the silver paper.
In the cave, Li Yan raised five fingers, and as they changed, streams of spiritual power hit the silver paper. He wanted to use his own spiritual power to control it, and this time use his spiritual sense to see if there would be any abnormal phenomena happening inside the silver paper.
After a dozen breaths, Li Yan withdrew his spiritual power, and then he cast out a series of spells, which made the silver paper radiate light.
After another dozen breaths, Li Yan's consciousness remaining inside the silver paper helplessly discovered that no matter whether it was spiritual power or magic formula entering, it would only cause more spiritual power fluctuations inside the silver paper. After a short pause, everything returned to normal again.
By some time, Li Yan had explored everything he needed to explore and tried all the spells he could use. He could only stare blankly at the surroundings inside the silver paper and then gave a bitter smile.
After thinking about it for a while, he felt that he should observe the situation of the other two silver sheets. If the situation was the same, he would have to wait until his cultivation level improved greatly in the future. Perhaps there would be other ways to study out the result.
Just when Li Yan was about to withdraw his spiritual consciousness, suddenly an extremely cold voice sounded in the silver paper space, which scared Li Yan and he almost withdrew his spiritual consciousness subconsciously, but fortunately he had been on guard and had some ability to respond.
"I am the 59th generation fourth elder of the Immortal Phoenix clan, named Tatian. I don't have much time left, and the remaining blood and essence will be transformed into ten collections.
If you are of my bloodline, this is the last gift I leave for you; if you are not of my race, immediately hand it over to the Immortal Phoenix clan and do not keep it for yourself.
And tell them that there are still nine drops of blood essence, otherwise you will be hunted down by my clan for generations until your soul is annihilated."
The voice was desolate and heavy, and it came suddenly, which startled Li Yan, but after hearing the end, his face changed several times.
There are several reasons why Li Yan was surprised:
The first is that there are many monsters in this world, but apart from the four most ferocious beasts, the top monsters are none other than the dragon, phoenix, and phoenix. The phoenix in the latter is actually a member of the same clan, consisting of one male and one female.
But no matter whether it is a dragon or a phoenix, they are just a general term. There are many types in the dragon clan, such as the five-clawed golden dragon, Zhulong, Yinglong, Jiaolong, etc.; the same is true for the phoenix clan, such as Qingluan, Fire Phoenix, Ice Phoenix, Green Phoenix, etc.
This "Immortal Dark Phoenix" is a very powerful branch of the Phoenix clan. Its feathers are silver-gray, its blood is silver-white, and its body is like a star, although it is not as good at the power of space as other Phoenix clan members.
However, an adult "Immortal Dark Phoenix" can travel through any space, and there is almost no spatial turbulence or strong wind that can cause harm to it. It is almost truly immortal.
But there is nothing absolute in this world. Although the lifespan of the "Immortal Dark Phoenix" is measured in tens of thousands of years and its physical body is incredibly strong, it will eventually die. This "Sky-Walking" Phoenix is one of them. But it still shows how powerful this race is.
Secondly, since the "Immortal Phoenix" is almost immortal, but the words just now undoubtedly revealed that this "Immortal Phoenix" is on the verge of death, who killed it? Who can kill it
Even if it is a young "Immortal Dark Phoenix", it is considered to be in the Golden Core Stage. Obviously, the vicissitudes revealed in the voice show that this is undoubtedly an adult "Immortal Dark Phoenix".
According to the classics that Li Yan had read, an adult "Immortal Dark Phoenix" could no longer stay in the "mortal world" as its cultivation had long surpassed the level of a spirit, which was not tolerated by the laws of this world.
The cultivation of monsters is much simpler than that of humans. In addition to the innate magical powers in their blood, their daily cultivation speed is also astonishingly fast. Some monsters even simply eat, drink water, and sleep all day long. As long as their bodies grow, they will be in a constant state of advancement.
Li Yan had not seen any introduction to the "Immortal Phoenix" in the classics, but this dead "Immortal Phoenix" was definitely a transcendent existence. Just from the faint voice of the words, Li Yan could hear the majesty that disregarded everything.
