Legend has it that many epochs ago, when all the realms were combined into one world, there were immortals in this world. Not earthly immortals like Xuan Yuan Lao Tao, but true immortals, golden immortals, Daluo golden immortals and the like, who can truly destroy the heaven and the earth with just a single move. The demon god is a terrifying existence like these immortals, who can cross the void and explode the stars.
In the legend, it was the invasion of demons that set off a war between immortals and demons, tearing the entire world apart. After the war, the fragments of the world formed realms, floating in the endless void, and some tiny fragments were refined into secret realms.
At the same time, these realms could no longer carry the power of immortals. Since then, there have been no true immortals in all realms, and earth immortals have become supreme. As for where the original immortals went, there are also various legends. Some say they were destroyed together with the demon god, some said they counterattacked the demon god's lair, and some said that ten thousand immortals worked together to open up the fairy world, etc.
No one can verify whether the legend is true or false, but some relics in various realms can at least prove that the war between immortals and demons did indeed exist. Not to mention other realms, just in the Shenhua realm alone, there are many restricted areas that have existed for unknown ages. There are some restricted areas, and even the Earth Immortal has been buried in them. This has proved that the Earth Immortal is indeed not invincible in the world.
The place where the Demonic Fall was mentioned by the high priest was a famous restricted area in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. This restricted area, measured from the outside, is only a few thousand miles in radius. This area, if a Golden Core cultivator is flying in the air with a sword, it won't take long to cross it.
However, once you enter the restricted area, you will find that it is impossible to fly out. If you are lucky enough, you may take one step in and one step out, just like using the method of moving, one step for a thousand miles. But if you are unlucky, you may not be able to get out for the rest of your life.
This is not because of some array maze, but because the time and space in the restricted area are extremely chaotic and distorted, just like countless time and space fragments superimposed and interlaced, and there are almost no rules at all. It can be said that the high priest was able to escape from it, even if he lost all his cultivation because of it, it was definitely a stroke of luck.
"However, the chaos and distortion of time and space is just one of the dangers in this Demonic Land. It is nothing compared to the real dangers." When the high priest introduced this, his face actually showed some fear. Colorful, he said in a deep voice: "The most terrifying thing is actually the demonized creatures in the restricted area and the countless corpses of strong men who were buried in it."
Ye Zan frowned and couldn't help asking, "Demonized creatures, corpses of powerful men, what are they?"
"The so-called demonized creatures are creatures that are corroded by the demonic energy in the restricted area. Even ordinary beasts will become quite terrifying after being corroded by the demonic energy. And the corpses of the strong will also revive after being corroded by the demonic energy. Come here, but the soul has been destroyed, like a walking zombie, but it has stronger power than before." The high priest explained in a low tone.
"So, your injury?" Ye Zan thought of something.
The high priest nodded and said, "Yes, the injuries on my body come from the corpse of a demon king."
After hearing these introductions, Ye Zan was a little silent for a while, but actually he was a little shaken in his heart. There was obviously no way that there was only one demon king's corpse in the restricted area. After all, it had existed for countless epochs, and who knew how many powerful men had perished in it.
Seeing Ye Zan's hesitation, the high priest continued: "Don't think that after entering, you will be on the outside of the restricted area and will not encounter much danger. You know, in the case of time and space distortion, you It is more likely that as soon as you step into it, you will appear next to the corpse of a strong man."
The danger in this Demonic Land actually comes from the uncertainty. Unlike some places where the greatest danger may be hidden deep in the place, you won't encounter it as long as you don't get close. And in this Demonic Land, you may appear in the deepest place as soon as you enter. You won't even have time to react before you are instantly crushed by a terrifying existence.
"Now that I have told you everything I know, do you still plan to go there?" the high priest then asked.
However, after hesitating for a moment, Ye Zan nodded and said, "I know the high priest is worried, but I still plan to go over and have a look."
After Qi Qianjun listened to this, he also had a look of worry on his face. When he heard that Ye Zan still insisted on going, he couldn't help but persuade him: "Uncle, I think it's better to think about it carefully. I'm waiting for that place." My cultivation level is really not suitable for taking risks.”
"Oh, that's no longer an adventure, it's a death!" Seeing that Ye Zan was still so insistent, the high priest couldn't help but increase his tone.
However, after listening to the two people's persuasion, Ye Zan smiled and said: "If the current cultivation level is not good, then what kind of cultivation level is needed? Even with the strength of the high priest, he is still close to death. Many people who were stronger than the high priest also died in it. What kind of cultivation level is enough?"
Ye Zan is not afraid of death, but sometimes if you want to get something, you have to take some risks. Besides, the high priest was able to escape, but many people who were more powerful than the high priest were buried in it, which shows that strength is not the only criterion for determining the risk. Who said you can't enter the Foundation Establishment Realm? If you enter, you will definitely die.
What's more, Ye Zan also has technology as a weapon in his hands. Whether it is weapons or detection technology, it is not comparable to those demon kings or strong human beings.
"But..." The high priest wanted to persuade again.
But Ye Zan raised his hand to stop the other party and said with a hint of apology: "High Priest, there is no need to persuade me anymore. I know what I am doing. Opportunities and dangers always coexist in this world. If you are afraid of danger and stop moving forward, , I am afraid that countless opportunities will be missed.”
"Well, I didn't think so back then, but if it hadn't been for you, I probably wouldn't have been able to survive for a few more years." The high priest said with emotion, of course to persuade Ye Zan.
"But it was the strange rocks from outside the territory that you brought out that attracted me here. The various causes and effects are not so easy to figure out." After Ye Zan made the decision, he seemed much more relaxed. tangled.
"Forget it, since you have decided, I will accompany you for a while." The high priest suddenly said.
But when he heard this, Ye Zan was not moved, but immediately a little anxious, and said quickly: "There is no need for the high priest to be like this, your injury is just right, you still need time to recover, not to mention that the people in this village are counting on you. They hold up the sky.”
Just kidding, if the high priest followed him in, in Ye Zan's opinion, he would really be going to die. Once inside, he had to tie his hands to do anything, and it was even harder to take out those technological things casually. What was the meaning of this adventure
What's more, if he really encounters an unstoppable danger, Ye Zan can bring Qi Qianjun into another dimension, but can he also bring the high priest in? You know, Qi Qianjun has sworn an oath with his soul, at least he will never betray the Yuqing Sect, and can the high priest also swear such an oath
"Why, Grandmaster Ye looks down upon Lao Chen's strength?" the high priest said with a frown.
"No, no, no, high priest, don't get me wrong!" Ye Zan waved his hand, thought for a moment and said: "I, the Jade Qing Sect, have some special methods that are really not suitable to be used in front of others. If the high priest really thinks about me, please Don't make it difficult for me."
Ye Zan's words were a bit direct, but there was nothing he could do if he wasn't direct, otherwise it would take a lot of effort to push and persuade. Therefore, it is better to be more direct and say that I have special means that should not be known to outsiders, so you, old man, should not follow me.
What's more, to put it mildly, judging from the description of the high priest, in the land of Demonic Fall, having one more high priest does not mean that there is more safety. If it is the Earth Immortal Taoist Ancestor, it will be almost the same.
After hearing what Ye Zan said, the high priest was not angry. After a moment of silence, he said helplessly: "Okay, then whenever you want to go, I will send you there."
"It's better to choose a day than to hit it. I think today is the day." Ye Zan has already prepared everything he can. There is no point in waiting a few more days.
Without saying much, the high priest took Ye Zan and Qi Qianjun, and a huge jade cicada appeared under his feet, carrying the three of them and flying towards the Shiwan Mountain. In less than a moment, the three of them had reached the sky above a strange place. Looking down from the sky, it looked like a huge crater with no end visible in the distance.
The high priest led the two of them to the ground, still several kilometers away from the edge of the crater. However, Ye Zan and Qi Qianjun could already feel that a cold air seemed to seep into the bone marrow, making people shiver.
Although in the eyes of the high priest, with Ye Zan and Qi Qianjun's cultivation, this trip was like sending someone to death, he still warned carefully: "This place is the edge of the Demonic Land. Due to the overflow of demonic energy, not a single blade of grass grows around it. There are often people in the demonic path who absorb demonic energy in this borderland. Some people will be triggered by their inner demons and lured into the restricted area. Therefore, you should wait in the restricted area even if you see strangers. Be extremely careful.”
"Thank you, High Priest, for reminding me. I'll be careful later. Please come back, High Priest." Ye Zan thanked him and began to tactfully chase him away.
The high priest shook his head helplessly and said: "Then I will go back first. I hope I can see you someday."
The high priest had reached this point, which was considered to be the end of his benevolence. He said no more at the moment and flew into the sky with the illusion of a jade cicada, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.
"Uncle Master, what should we do next? Do we want to go in?" Qi Qianjun asked.
Ye Zan smiled and said, "No hurry, wait a moment."
As he spoke, Ye Zan came to the edge of the restricted area and took out a small box from the Qiankun Ring. Opening the box, there are neatly arranged electronic flies inside. This thing is the best tool for exploring unknown places. (To be continued.)
