Wusi City is very big, not the kind of small city where you can see the gate on the opposite side at a glance. Even the capitals of those countries in the Yang World cannot compare with it. After all, the purpose of this city of vain death is to provide a place for the souls of those who died in vain to reside in the world, and this world is not just a realm of divine flowers.
Legend has it that the City of Fusi is controlled by King Bian Cheng among the ten kings of hell. Of course, no one knows how it actually happened. Especially since the world collapsed, there is no true immortal in the world, and no one can enter the underworld to find out. Naturally, no one knows the true situation of the underworld anymore. Ye Zan and others only know now that the underworld has already collapsed along with the heaven and earth.
Coming back to this city of futile death, it is not much different from the big cities in Yangshi. In addition to a large number of "ordinary houses", there are also many commercial buildings. Although most of the buildings in the city have now turned into ruins, people can still vaguely imagine the once prosperous scene of the city.
Don't think that after a person dies and becomes a ghost, he has no desires or desires. Immortals can't have no desires and desires, let alone ghosts who have gathered human will. The ghosts who died in vain in the city have not yet exhausted their yang life. They can neither be reincarnated immediately nor return their yang, so they can only spend their days in this city. Even if it's only a few months, if I don't have something to do to entertain myself, I'm afraid I'll be driven crazy by boredom.
Those who have relatives in the Yang world will burn some incense, candles and tie them with paper, which becomes their source of livelihood in the city of Wusi. There are also some ghosts who have no relatives in the human world, and have no source of income, so they can only find ways to do it on their own, such as providing some services or entertainment to rich ghosts. In short, living in this city of futile death is actually no different from living in the Yang world. It is still a small society with class differences.
Ye Zan's preparations may not be very comprehensive. After all, no one is truly omniscient and omnipotent. However, as long as he could think of it, he basically made preparations for it, and even left a small steel fortress in the open space outside the city gate. In the steel fortress, in addition to being guarded by four Yuanshen mechanical warriors, a large number of additional weapons and ammunition were also left behind.
"Enter the city!" Ye Zan waved his hand and finally led everyone into the City of Fusi.
Of course, Ye Zan had already used a detector to scan the scene in the city of Fusui, and there were a large number of predator soldiers investigating everywhere. Everyone except Ye Zan also knew what the city looked like in advance through the battlefield command vehicles and the images transmitted back by the detectors. Therefore, after officially stepping into the city gate, no one was too surprised at the sight of ruins.
What really concerns Ye Zan and others are the several giant crypts located in several areas in this city of futile death. Each of those giant crypts is the size of a football field. It's so dark that you can't see the bottom of it, and you don't know where it leads to. Around several of the caves, there were fresh traces left after fierce battles, but there were no corpses or bloodstains, only spell bombardments or some sword marks.
Ye Zan and others quickly arrived at the nearest crypt. There were also many traces of battle left around, some of which looked like they were left by huge sharp claws.
"It's not like the three teams in front all went down here." After checking the surrounding traces with his own eyes, Wenhua Zhenjun looked at the bottomless cave and said with some worry.
Did the three teams go down to the crypt, or did they leave the City of Death in vain
Perhaps because of the environmental problems here, Ye Zan's original tracking methods are not very easy to use here. Both heat and smell seem to be difficult to retain here, perhaps because of the so-called excessive Yin energy. This "yin energy" is not a cold breath. Although it has the property of making people feel cold, it also has the property of repelling and disturbing other "energy".
Therefore, even Ye Zan was not sure how the three teams in front moved.
After passing through the Wrongful Death City and walking a little further, you will reach the legendary Fengdu City, which is also the center of the underworld. According to common sense, the Taoist Tianyu is likely hiding there, and he may even hold some key to the underworld.
However, it cannot be said with certainty that it is impossible for those three teams to enter the crypt. After all, these caves appear very strangely, and they may not lead to the hiding place of Tianyu Daozu. In other words, the Tianyu Daozu was not a fool. Maybe even if some people thought he was hiding in Fengdu City, he chose another place to hide.
"Brother Xian, what do you think?" Qinghong Zhenjun asked.
"Don't be impatient, I'll try to detect it first." Ye Zan said as he released the detector and began to probe deeper into the cave.
However, at this moment, everyone suddenly felt a violent vibration coming from the ground beneath their feet, as if something was about to emerge from the ground. Ye Zan and others reacted quickly, and after all, their mana had been restored, so they immediately scattered in all directions and left the place. At the same time, they are not running around, but vaguely surrounding the ground. No matter what comes out of it, they can immediately launch a siege.
As Ye Zan and others scattered in all directions, the ground where they were originally standing quickly formed a mound. Then, the top of the mound was broken, the earth and rocks collapsed in all directions, and a large, ferocious-looking beetle jumped out from the ground.
This big beetle is as big as Ye Zan's battlefield command vehicle, and it looks like an oversized unicorn. However, its front half stood upright like a human, and under the huge horn, there was also a face similar to that of a human, but it looked ugly and ferocious.
"What kind of monster is this!" Qinghong Zhenjun and others have never seen such a monster beast or monster clan, and naturally they cannot guess the origin of this big beetle.
"This is... the crypt lord?" But Ye Zan frowned, looked at the big beetle in front of him, and said a name in surprise.
Of course, Ye Zan was not sure that this big beetle was the so-called crypt lord. The reason why I say this is just because he found information about a similar creature in his database. Moreover, the information about that creature is not a real research in reality, but like the Western dragon, it comes from fantasy works in the technological world.
The Western Dragon, the Balrog, and now the Crypt Lord are all fantasy creatures in the technological world, but now they have become real existences in this world. To be honest, if life hadn't been extremely real in the past few years, Ye Zan might have thought that the world he lived in now was some kind of virtual game in the technological world.
"Crypt Lord? What is that!" Lin Mumu was not far from Ye Zan. Hearing Ye Zan's muttering, he couldn't help but ask curiously.
However, before Ye Zan could answer, the crypt lord had already launched an attack on everyone.
I saw the crypt lord shaking his head and opening his mouth to everyone. Suddenly, an extremely disgusting rotten smell swept away towards everyone. The people who were sprayed by the putrid smell, even though they all had the cultivation level of Yuanshen Realm, could not bear the stench, and each one of them was staggered in mid-air.
Immediately afterwards, the armor on the crypt lord's back cracked to both sides, and a cloud of black mist rose into the air from the cracks in the armor, attacking everyone with an annoying buzzing sound. The black mist was made up of countless small insects, like a huge swarm of mosquitoes stirred up in the swamp, sweeping in all directions like a black whirlwind.
After all, Qinghong Zhenjun and others are all powerful souls. Although they were dizzy by the putrid gas, they did not lose their fighting ability because of it. Seeing the black mist coming toward them, everyone immediately used their own methods. Some used flying swords to shoot out thousands of sword lights, and some used spells to blast out balls of fire. They rushed over to face the sweeping black mist. .
However, something even more surprising happened. The powerful flying sword of the Yuan Shen could split mountains apart, but it could not kill the insects in the black mist. Those little bugs, after being struck by the sword light, fell to the ground with a crackle, but they quickly flew up again and merged into the black mist again. And those fireballs, which were supposed to be the nemesis of bugs, could only make those little bugs shine brighter, and had no other use.
"Block them and don't get close, let me handle it!" Ye Zan also discovered this situation and knew that these little bugs had amazing defense, so he quickly reminded everyone loudly. At the same time, he used Ruyi Baiyuan as a long sword. The long sword drew several strange trajectories and pointed out a black spot out of thin air in the void. A small black spot, but it has an extremely powerful attraction, and it is growing rapidly.
This move is exactly what the black hole swallows. Although it does not create a real black hole, the powerful attraction is not something those small flying insects can contend with. The black mist composed of small flying insects suddenly made a buzzing sound a hundred times louder, but it was still pulled by the attraction of the black hole and gradually turned into a black vortex, constantly rushing towards the black hole at the center.
The Crypt Lord on the ground naturally discovered this situation and immediately raised his forearm and smashed it towards the ground. And following its seemingly meaningless movement, huge spikes suddenly shot out from the ground and into the void, surrounding Ye Zan. This move looks very similar to a move used by Li Luan, but those huge spikes seem to be sharper and more difficult to resist.
Faced with such a move, Ye Zan certainly did not dare to resist with his physical body. The liquid metal was as versatile as any wish, and instantly gushed out like a waterfall. This wishful change immediately turned into countless whirling gears after it appeared, forming a tornado-like barrier around Ye Zan.
The sharp thorns aimed at Ye Zan instantly penetrated the barrier formed by countless spinning gears, and the sound of grinding saws suddenly sounded in the space. And as the sound sounded, those spikes were quickly worn away, and none of them could penetrate the barrier.
Ye Zan attracted the attention of the Crypt Lord, and other people around him immediately seized this opportunity and launched attacks on the Crypt Lord below. It has to be said that this crypt lord really deserves to have "armor". The defensive power of his carapace is so amazing that ordinary attacks cannot leave even a trace.
However, Ye Zan's side is full of powerful souls. He has seen the defensive power of those small flying insects before, so he will naturally attack without any effort at this time. The strength of the Crypt Lord is comparable to that of the Mighty Soul, and may even be a bit stronger than the ordinary Mighty Soul, but after all, it is difficult for two fists to defeat four hands.
Finally, a loud "boom" was heard, and the body of the crypt lord finally collapsed, but turned into countless small insects and scattered.
Ye Zan had already extinguished the insect mist just now. Seeing that the crypt lord was actually made of small insects, he immediately made a magic spell and threw a gravity field to cover it. The countless small insects that were blasted away suddenly became extremely slow in the gravity field that suddenly increased a hundred times, and continued to fall towards the ground.
"Strangled!" True Lord Qinghong shouted, and instantly deployed the Infinite Sword Realm, covering the space where the insect was. In the Infinite Sword Realm, countless flying swords are flying in the sky and underground, as if they are a huge millstone made of flying swords. And those bugs became grains on the millstone. Although each one of them had amazing defense, they were still crushed and destroyed by the "millstone" in an instant.
"Pay attention to your surroundings!" Seeing that the crypt lord was beheaded, Ye Zan did not relax at all, but issued another warning to everyone. He has discovered through the detector's induction that high-energy reactions are constantly occurring on the ground, and at the same time, the ground of the entire Fusi City has begun to shake violently.
"Boom boom boom!"
With a loud roar, huge beetles broke out of the ground one after another. These beetles were also crypt lords, and their strength was similar to the previous one. If there is only one Crypt Lord, then of course the fate of the previous one will not be any different. Ye Zan and others can quickly kill it. But now, around Ye Zan and others, more than a dozen Crypt Lords suddenly emerged from the ground, which was not so easy to deal with.
Does that Tianyu Dao Ancestor really just want to refine the realm and become an immortal
Seeing the crypt lords on the ground, and recalling the existences that did not belong to this world before, Ye Zan couldn't help but have a question in his heart.
Ye Zan is not sure that the Western Dragon must be the "Western Dragon" and the Crypt Lord must be the "Crypt Lord". But he was at least certain that these things must have some connection with the demons from the ancient times. So, is Tianyu Daozu who uses these things to protect himself really just using these things, or does it have something to do with the demon god outside the world
Can one become an immortal in the realm of refining
Although Daozu Xuanyuan told Ye Zan that this was the purpose of Daozu Tianyu, he also said that this road was actually unworkable. So, Tianyu Daozu was also the Earth Immortal Daozu, and was also the uncle of Xuanyuan Daozu and the others. Wouldn't he know this? If Tianyu Daozu knows this, if this road is indeed blocked, then what is the real purpose
