Five Immortal Sects

Chapter 923: The Guardian Land (II)

Views:

"Reverend Duanmu" and another Jindan cultivator had to go out to help in the battle, and they couldn't even wait for someone to come from the rear to take over their guard here, so it might take some time for Meng Zhiyuan to return.

It should be that "Venerable Duanmu" had some sense of the future at that time, and the "Dark Spirit Demon Bat" has been doing its job here diligently for hundreds of years.

At the same time, during the time he was guarding this place, the "Dark Spirit Demon Bat" was very respectful to him and all military orders were completed perfectly.

Therefore, before leaving, "Venerable Duanmu" decided to help the "Dark Spirit Demon Bat", and he let several strong men in the tribe make their own choice.

One is to bring Meng Zhiyuan back across the border when he returns;

The other is that he used his great magical powers to seal the "Dark Spirit Demon Bat" clan in a forbidden area.

"Reverend Duanmu" practices the law of life and can control the passage of time.

However, even at his level of transformation, he only had a rough grasp of the laws of life. If he only wanted to extend his life by a few days, he could of course do it immediately.

But it is very likely that he will be gone for months or even years. To truly stop the passage of time, he must rely on some kind of powerful force.

At the same time, it is necessary to engrave runes in the blood of the "Dark Spirit Bat" clan to connect their blood with this power. As long as this power does not die, they will not perish.

And the place they are guarding happens to be where this kind of power exists, but what this power is, "Venerable Duanmu" will not say.

However, in this way, the "Dark Spirit Demon Bat" clan will not be able to leave this place within a radius of 50 miles, otherwise the time they were blocked before will be doubled.

It will cause a "Dark Spirit Bat" to age rapidly in a very short period of time, or even die directly.

After considering it, several six-winged "Dark Spirit Demon Bats" realized that they had also consumed hundreds of years of their lifespan due to the lack of cultivation resources here, and their realm had not improved much.

If this continues, they will live one day less, and of course they don't want this to happen.

At that time, out of trust in the great strength of "Venerable Duanmu", he chose to seal their clan in a forbidden area.

In their opinion, "Reverend Duanmu" and the other powerful incarnation master were both beings with boundless magical powers. Even if they went to provide support, it was impossible for both of them to get into trouble at the same time.

I think I will return here in five or six years at most.

But what they didn't expect was that they would have to wait for hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years...

Neither "Reverend Duanmu" nor any other powerful person from Qingqing Continent has ever returned.

Later, they even thought that "Venerable Duanmu" might have taken the opportunity to seal them here, just to make their clan guard this nameless cave forever.

Because they don’t believe that even if “Venerable Duanmu” died, there is still a cultivator who has reached the state of Divine Transformation

The simultaneous death of two powerful gods was an extremely rare event, especially since they were cultivators guarding this place together. The probability of this happening was so small that they were unwilling to believe it.

Gradually, their emotions changed from anticipation to torment, then to anxiety, anger, and finally to numbness...

It’s not that they haven’t thought about going out. Some “Dark Spirit Bats” who couldn’t bear the torture left in groups. They felt that even if they went out and were hunted down by the demons, it would be a thousand times better than living in such darkness.

The six-winged "Dark Spirit Bats" did not stop this. They knew the rules better than anyone else and were unwilling to try it lightly, so they were just watching.

As soon as the groups of "Dark Spirit Demon Bats" flew out of a radius of fifty miles, the laws of life of thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of years... came upon them instantly.

They didn't even realize what was happening before they were turned into powder and melted into the sea.

That scene made all the "Dark Spirit Bats" shudder, and they saw in their spiritual consciousness a large group of "Dark Spirit Bats" quickly disappearing into the sea.

Then, the moment it reached a range of fifty miles, a large cloud of gray smoke rose up, and disappeared without a trace in the gentle flow of the sea water...

In the end, no “Dark Spirit Bat” dared to fly out of the restricted range.

But at this time, they had already lost their awe for the three sub-caves they were guarding, and placed all their anger on the sub-caves.

So one of the six-winged "Dark Spirit Bats" was unwilling to give in and directly attacked one of the caves.

He was a powerful person who was extremely proficient in formations, and he was also very good at breaking the ban.

The cave he attacked was the mysterious cave that they and the two powerful gods had been guarding.

He roared like mad, wanting to break everything here and see clearly what they were waiting for.

The other four six-winged "Dark Spirit Bats" were terrified. For hundreds of years, they had never dared to approach these three caves. It was a sense of awe for the strong that came from their hearts.

There is this kind of person who is strong in everyone's mind, but usually that is just a legend, and strong people do not appear in the world all the time.

But these "Dark Spirit Bats" are different. The powerful ones have lived with them for hundreds of years and are so close to them.

Even if the opponent just exhales, several of the strongest "Dark Spirit Bats" can be killed instantly without any resistance. This is the real feeling.

Now, some of his own people are attacking like crazy, and the target of their attack is the most mysterious cave.

They didn't know what was inside. If it was some rare treasure, they would want to get it now. But what if a powerful enemy was trapped in the cave

The other four six-winged "Dark Spirit Demon Bats" tried to persuade him to no avail, but they still had a glimmer of hope in their hearts. In the end, they just watched helplessly as the six-winged "Dark Spirit Demon Bat" attacked the restriction day after day...

Until one day, with a loud bang, the door of the most mysterious cave was broken open to reveal a dark hole the size of a fist. At the moment the hole appeared, the six-winged "Dark Spirit Demon Bat" let out a shrill scream. No one could see what happened, and he had already turned into a bloody rain.

Even his Nascent Soul was unable to escape, and his soul was shattered in an instant, as if he had never been in this world.

Then, in the terrified eyes of all the "Dark Spirit Bat" members, the black hole quickly shrank and disappeared.

This scene was deeply imprinted in the mind of every "Dark Spirit Bat" that saw it, and in the years that followed, it was like an indelible nightmare.

After that, no one dared to try to break the formations on the three caves.

They could only hide in the forbidden area again and continue to wait for the return of "Venerable Duanmu".

However, they have completely cut off their cultivation resources at this time, and can only rely on the limited spiritual energy here to cultivate and reproduce...

I originally thought that just waiting endlessly like this was the most reliable way.

One day, the first "Dark Spirit Bat" among them died. This was very surprising, and even the remaining four six-winged "Dark Spirit Bats" were extremely unexpected.

Because their current bloodline, including the bloodline of their offspring, is related to the laws of life here, this is simply impossible to happen.

The four top powerhouses studied the body of the dead six-winged "Dark Spirit Demon Bat" for a long time, and finally concluded that there might be a problem with the bloodline of this "Dark Spirit Demon Bat", which led to this situation.

Because after a period of time, this situation never happened again.

Soon the matter came to nothing, but more than half a year later, another two-winged "Dark Spirit Bat" died in the forbidden area.

Afterwards, every few months or years, "Dark Spirit Bats" would die one after another.

This incident caused the four six-winged "Dark Spirit Bats" to become extremely nervous. They continued to study the corpses of their own kind, but still could not find the source of the problem.

After finally reaching a consensus, they came to another conclusion that the cultivation levels of these dead "Dark Spirit Bats" were very low, and some were even in the Qi Condensation Stage.

However, they have one thing in common, that is, they have existed for a very long time and their descendants have not survived and reproduced here.

It’s just that why these “dark spirit bats” could live for so long without any trouble under the protection of the law of life, but now problems begin to arise.

Driven by this kind of thinking, the four six-winged "Dark Spirit Bats" finally thought of what "Venerable Duanmu" said at the time. Because it was too long ago, they had long ignored this matter.

From this, they discovered the problem. They were being cast under the spell of life, and "Venerable Duanmu" seemed to have said that they must rely on a force from this place to complete the spell.

After verifying with each other, the four six-winged "Dark Spirit Bats" confirmed that it was "Venerable Duanmu" who said this.

In this case, there may be a problem with the power that maintains their lives, and the most likely possibility is that it is exhausted and should be in a process of slowly declining.

Next, as time passed by in the forbidden land, more and more "Dark Spirit Bats" died one after another, which verified their speculation.

Those who died were all "Dark Spirit Bats" of ancient age, and the order of their death started from the lowest level of cultivation.

Judging from their lifespans, more than 95% of this group of "Dark Spirit Bats" should have died long ago, and only the youngest batch would be left.

Of course, if they had not existed, there would not be generations of young "Dark Spirit Bats".

This is enough to prove that the power is still there and is still resonating with their blood.

Then the four six-winged "Dark Spirit Bats" told the news to all the tribesmen.

Although this is extremely cruel, they are no longer eternal beings and will die one after another, but it is a hundred times better than letting all the tribe members live in panic every day.

Then, the four six-winged "Dark Spirit Bats" began to search for the mysterious power. After sixty years of continuous attempts, a large number of their own kind died.

They finally discovered the source of this power, which should be the power that supports the operation of the forbidden area.

This power decayed very slowly. They had been searching for that power everywhere every day for sixty years before they finally discovered it.

As the power of the forbidden land continued to weaken, the power of the restrictions on the three sub-caves was also weakening, but the restrictions on the three sub-caves were weakening more slowly.

It will decay a little in about fifteen years, which is inconsistent with the death rate of the tribe members. At the same time, it can be confirmed that the restrictions of the three sub-caves are independent and have nothing to do with the magic array in the forbidden area.

So the solution is very simple, which is to strengthen the power of the forbidden area.

However, even though their clan had lived in the forbidden land for so long, they really didn’t know where the core of the formation that operated the forbidden land was.

Because the formation has been functioning well, the spirit of obeying orders has been ingrained in their bones.

This time, the four six-winged "Dark Spirit Bats" made all the tribesmen start to search separately.

In fact, what they are most worried about is that the core of the formation is in the three sub-caves. If that is the case, what will they do

Fortunately, these worries were unnecessary, as the four six-winged "Dark Spirit Bats" finally discovered three sealed passages at the end of the forbidden area.
