The fall of Tiandao Mountain shocked the whole world, but no one understood how Tiandao Mountain fell. Although, due to the strengthening of the shackles of heaven and earth, the powerful powers of Tongtian Realm and Dharma Realm could not take action. To be precise, Linghua Daojun was deposed. However, there is a forest of monuments in Tiandao Mountain and a black prison of spiritual treasures. As long as there are a few Yuanshen realm guards, at least the fall will not be so unexpected.
But now, seeing the scene on the other side of the teleportation circle, Ye Zan and others were finally able to guess some of the real reasons for the fall of Tiandao Mountain. There is a saying that goes, "A strong fortress is always easy to be breached from the inside." It is probably the same here in Tiandao Mountain.
If Tianyu Daozu's men directly entered the black prison through this teleportation circle, it would be equivalent to appearing directly inside Tiandao Mountain. Tiandao Mountain's external defense methods will not be as effective as they should be against enemies appearing within. Under such circumstances, without Taoist Lord Linghua, how could Tiandao Mountain be defended with only a few Taoist defenders stationed in each sect.
Tianyu Daozu's side captured Tiandao Mountain, creating a big trouble for the domain and greatly involving the power of various sects. As a result, even if each sect received Ye Zan's summons, it would be difficult for them to allocate too much spare energy to stop Tianyu Daozu.
Although each sect may know that once Tianyu Daozu succeeds, the sects they are currently guarding will still be slaughtered. But who doesn’t have a sense of luck? Now that the sect is destroyed, it is really destroyed, and what Tianyu Daozu will do, we really can't tell until the end.
At the same time, after taking Tiandao Mountain into his own hands, Tianyu Daozu also added another layer of protection to himself. Just like Ye Zan and the others, they must first go around the outside and have enough strength and luck before they can find their way back to Tiandao Mountain. If he didn't have that strength and luck, just walking around outside would be enough to solve a lot of trouble for Tianyu Daozu.
As for whether someone will break into the ghost realm and still find the hiding place of Tianyu Daozu through the black prison of Tiandao Mountain! This may not be impossible, but considering various conditions, the possibility is still relatively small. After all, everyone knew that this matter was done by Tianyu Daozu, and they only thought that it was to divert the energy of various sects. No one has thought that this space in the black prison would be related to the hiding place of Tianyu Daozu.
Just like Ye Zan and the three teams that followed, didn't they just think of this
Perhaps, only Linghua Dao Lord, as the guardians who were in Tiandao Mountain at that time, could sense the mystery in this through the appearance of people from mysterious forces. But the problem is that Linghua Dao Lord was suppressed in the black prison, and none of the guardians and disciples of various sects escaped from Tiandao Mountain, so naturally it was impossible to bring any news.
"I didn't expect it to be like this. If I had known it earlier..." After thinking about this, Ye Zan couldn't help but said with emotion.
At the beginning, just after receiving the news of the fall of Tiandao Mountain, the Yuqing Sect also received requests for help from various sects there. However, in Ye Zan's view, preventing Tianyu Daozu from refining the realm is obviously more important than the affairs of Tiandao Mountain. Therefore, he decided to ignore the matter in Tiandao Mountain for the time being and lead the team on the road to find the hiding place of Tianyu Daozu.
If Ye Zan had not made such a choice at the beginning, but chose to solve the problem of Tiandao Mountain first, would it be better than now
However, after hearing Ye Zan's emotion, True Lord Qinghong smiled and consoled him: "Haha, brother, you don't have to be like this. If we had gone directly to Tiandao Mountain, I'm afraid we might not have been able to get here faster. ”
"This... that's true." Ye Zan came back to his senses and understood what True Lord Qinghong meant.
Just imagine, Tianyu Daozu has taken Tiandao Mountain, how can he not master the big formations of Tiandao Mountain
If the obstacle to entering Tiandao Mountain is only the ghost realm outside, I am afraid that it can be solved by just a few surrounding sects without Ye Zan and the others taking action. But why do those sects ask other sects for help? Isn't it just that there is no way to invade Tiandao Mountain and completely solve the source of the ghost domain
If Ye Zan and the others choose to go to Tiandao Mountain, I am afraid they will also be blocked by Tiandao Mountain's formation, and the difficulty of entering Tiandao Mountain will not be any less difficult than it is now.
Without wasting any more time, Ye Zan led everyone onto the altar of the teleportation circle, and a ball of teleportation light enveloped everyone's figures.
Almost in the blink of an eye, by the time everyone saw the surrounding scene clearly, they were already in the filthy land of the black prison. Still the same as before, the mobile fortress chariot that came first had already protected the entire teleportation circle, and the three Yuanshen mechanical warriors were also waiting quietly inside the fortress.
Ye Zan and the others walked out of the teleportation circle and immediately began to contact the monitors placed on the other three teams. On those three teams, Ye Zan installed a lot of electronic fly-type monitors early in the morning, so that he could locate the opponent's movements at any time. However, it can't be said that it is strange. In short, there is no signal transmitted, and it seems that the three teams are no longer in this space.
"It seems that they are moving very fast!" Ye Zan looked at the empty surroundings and said to Qinghong Zhenjun and others.
And Zhenjun Qinghong and others naturally understood who the "they" Ye Zan was referring to. Although they didn't know it, Ye Zan had surveillance methods like electronic flies, which could monitor people's every move from a very long distance. But just by scanning the surroundings with their spiritual thoughts, they could also know that the three teams were at least far away from here.
"Could it be that the mysterious force didn't make any arrangements here?" Qinghong Zhenjun and others asked doubtfully.
You know, on the side of the positive and negative Five Elements Formation, the mysterious forces have released nearly a hundred parallel souls. Now in this dark prison, even if the three teams walked quickly, there were no obvious signs of fighting. In other words, the three teams in front encountered almost no resistance here, and I don't know where they went.
Although Ye Zan did not receive any information from the monitor, it was not impossible to know the movements of the three teams. Just like Fatty Blue in a certain comic in the world of science and technology, Ye Zan once again opened his own extra-dimensional space and released several flying detectors from it.
After several flight detectors took off, they surrounded the teleportation array to detect the surroundings. The detection mode used was thermal imaging tracking. The human body will constantly emit heat, even ascetics, and the environment in this space happens to be extremely cold. Therefore, Ye Zan can completely confirm the movements of the three teams after leaving the teleportation circle by tracking the heat changes in the space, at least knowing which way they went.
Soon, Ye Zan received the detection results from the detector and saw the tracks formed by three heat residues. These three teams did not go in the same direction. After all, they did not know which direction was correct. Among the three tracks, the lightest one was probably left by Zhenjun Ziyang and his party, extending towards the east of the space. The other two trajectories, one goes to the northeast and the other goes to the south.
Logically speaking, if there is a road leading to Tianyu Daozu's hiding place in this black prison space, then there should be only one team leaving this space. After all, three teams went in three directions, which meant that only one team could go in the positive direction. Even if there is another team, they may go to the exit of this space and leave this space after exiting, so at least one team should stay in the space.
However, the three teams and three directions all left the space at this time, which made it difficult for Ye Zan to judge.
"The three teams in front all went in different directions. Brother Taoist and fellow Taoists, which direction do you think we should go?" Ye Zan asked Zhenjun Qinghong and others.
"I didn't expect that besides smell, it could be tracked like this!"
After listening to Ye Zan's introduction, Qinghong Zhenjun and others were first surprised by Ye Zan's tracking methods. After all, the most common tracking method in this world is tracking by scent. The quality of the method lies in the fact that some odors are easy to remove or cover up, while other odors will remain on the target very stubbornly.
Afterwards, everyone had a serious discussion about the three directions and decided to follow the direction of Zhenjun Ziyang and his party. In fact, they had a guess that no matter which direction they took, they might be led to the same place in the end.
As for why they chose Zhenjun Ziyang and his party, there was no particular reason. The main reason was that if they really needed to take action, Ye Zan and the others didn't have to worry too much. After all, there are disciples of Ye Zan on the Monster Clan side, and the Taihao Sect side has no grudges with Ye Zan. Only Zhenjun Ziyang's team doesn't need to consider things like feelings.
"Okay, let's decide on this direction and see where we can go in the end!" After listening to everyone's opinions, Ye Zan made a decisive decision.
Following the traces left by Zhenjun Ziyang and his party, Ye Zan and others headed towards the east of the space. Perhaps, enough of the sinister evil spirits have gone to the ghost realm outside to make a fuss. Therefore, although they encountered a lot of evil spirits along the way, they were really not enough to see in front of a group of powerful souls.
It didn't take long for Ye Zan and others to follow the traces and arrive at a mysterious-looking building.
This building, floating in mid-air, looks a bit like a holographic image, which means it is a bit illusory, as if the entity does not exist in this space. The traces of True Lord Ziyang and his party that Ye Zan and others were following were broken off here, and they all seemed to have entered the building.
The shape of this building looks like the gatehouse of a city, except that the upper gatehouse has collapsed in half, while the lower gate is tattered and open. And above the city gate, just like an ordinary city, there is a city's name engraved on it, with three ancient Chinese characters "Guimen Pass" written on it.
"gate of hell?"
Seeing the three big characters on the city gate, everyone on Ye Zan's side was immediately shocked. They never expected to see the legendary existence in this place.
Legend has it that after a person dies, he must enter the underworld, distinguish between good and evil, and enter the six realms of reincarnation. This hell gate is the first gate to enter the underworld. In addition, in folklore, there is also a saying that the ghost gate opens on July 15th, which means that the ghost gate opens wide, allowing ghosts from the Yin and Yang realms to travel.
However, after the ancient war between immortals and demons, the world was torn apart, and there were no more true immortals in the world. Whether this underworld still exists has become a mystery. After all, the collapse of the sky and the earth does not just mean the splitting of the earth. At most, it will become continents, but it will not become the realms it is now. In each realm, there are sun, moon, stars, and the alternation of day and night and the four seasons. These are all split from the original avenue of heaven and earth.
Therefore, when heaven and earth are split into realms, it is hard to say what the fate of this Netherworld, as an existence between heaven and earth, will be. Maybe it was turned into small underworlds like the sun, moon and stars, maybe it was split into pieces like the earth, maybe it was destroyed in the war.
But now, in front of Ye Zan and others, the legendary Gate of Hell appears, so what will be behind the Gate of Hell
"I didn't expect that the legendary Gate of Hell would actually appear here. It seems that we have to break through this Gate of Hell." Ye Zan looked up at the Gate of Hell. There was no timidity on his face, but a look of uneasiness. Curiosity and excitement.
In Ye Zan's view, if there is really a way to the Netherworld behind this ghost gate, then it might be possible to find the Tianyu Taoist who is refining the domain inside. And this possibility is really not small. Although the Shenhua Domain is very vast, there are many restricted areas where Jedi can hide. But I'm afraid there is no place more suitable for Tianyu Daozu to hide than the underworld.
"If this is the Gate of Hell, then what will be in the direction the other two teams are walking in? Should we go there first and take a look?" Zhenjun Wenhua suggested from the side. Entering the gate of hell? He didn't think this was a good idea, so he wanted to let Ye Zan confirm whether there was really no other way to go. What if the other two teams are heading in a direction that is relatively safer than the Gate of Hell
However, after Ye Zan heard Wenhua Zhenjun's suggestion, he used a projector to directly project two pictures in front of everyone.
Although Ye Zan chose to go in the direction of Zhenjun Ziyang and the others, how could he completely ignore the other two directions. Therefore, while Ye Zan was leading everyone here, he had actually sent out detectors to track the other two directions.
And now, the picture projected by Ye Zan is also the direction of the two teams captured by the detector from those two directions.
