What is the relationship between the Hengduan Mountains and the Immortal Relics Land
First of all, the reason why the Immortal Relics Land is called the Immortal Relics Land is because an immortal once died here. After the immortal died, his corpse, magical powers, and mana affected a large area. This area exuding weirdness and ominousness is called the Immortal Relics Land.
Then how did the Hengduan Mountains come about
When the immortals' magical power spread outward to those places that were not affected by strangeness and ominous things, it nourished the local plants, animals, and monsters. All things revived and life flourished, and it formed the Hengduan Mountains.
Therefore, we can conclude that the Hengduan Mountains are the outer part of the Immortal Relics Land, and the Immortal Relics Land is the core area of the Hengduan Mountains.
If you draw a circle with the immortal's body as the center, this circle is the place where the immortal remains. If you draw another big circle, the ring formed by the two circles is the Hengduan Mountains.
Su Changqing and other cultivators of the Lingnan Immortal Sect believed that this incident was caused by immortals, and their impression of this place was that it was a place where immortals had left their mark, so they accustomed to calling the Hengduan Mountains the place where immortals had left their mark.
For people like Qin Ran who live near the Hengduan Mountains, many people don’t even know about the Land of Immortals. Those who know about it think that the Land of Immortals is just a certain area in the Hengduan Mountains. What they know is the Hengduan Mountains, so they are accustomed to calling the Land of Immortals the Hengduan Mountains.
Of course, for the six explorers standing in the core area of the Hengduan Mountains, outside the Land of Immortals, it would be better to call this place the Land of Immortals.
Anyone who thought that an immortal had died here would be terrified and fearful.
"It is said that the Immortal Relics Land is full of strange things and all kinds of weird things..." Su Changqing said, "Please pay attention."
Qin Ran looked at the white mist filling the Immortal Relics Land, stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, and six transparent bubbles popped out. He said, "I don't know what that mist is. Wearing a hood can reduce a lot of unnecessary trouble."
As he spoke, he controlled a bubble to put on his head, like a space suit helmet.
After putting it on, he looked at the other five people, asking them if they needed it.
"Brother Qin is really careful." Su Changqing said with a smile, "It's troublesome."
Qin Ran then put a bubble on him.
"No wonder you are not good at fighting. It turns out you learned these weird magical powers." Bai Ruoxi said, pointing to her head, indicating that she should do one.
Qin Ran then gave her some head foam as well.
"Thank you for your help, Junior Brother." Qi Yun said with a smile.
Qin Ran also put a bubble on his head.
All three of them had put on bubbles, and now there were only two people who hadn't put them on yet, one was Jian Yuanjie, a deacon of Daojian Sect, and the other was Chu Batian, a disciple of Lingnan Xianzong.
Qin Ran glanced at Chu Batian and ignored him, only looking at Jian Yuanjie.
Jian Yuanjie was also a guide, because he was the person in charge of elixirs and medicines in Daojianmen, and he was very knowledgeable about medicinal materials and the like, and he also knew the Hengduan Mountains very well.
As for Qin Ran and Jian Yuanjie, the relationship between them is a little bit subtle...
Qin Ran knew that Jian Yuanjie was a traitor hiding in Daojianmen. Jian Yuanjie felt that Qin Ran might have discovered something, but on the surface, they were from the same sect and even friends who often interacted with each other.
The two looked at each other, Jian Yuanjie smiled, and after a while, he nodded to Qin Ran and said, "Please, Junior Brother!"
Only then did Kieran put the bubble on him.
Then there was one person left.
With Chu Batian's personality, he really didn't like this kind of fancy stuff, and because of his first impression, he didn't have a good impression of Qin Ran, so he really didn't want to wear this weird bubble.
But when he took a quick look, he saw that everyone had a transparent cover on their heads. It would be somewhat out of place if he didn't wear one.
So he reluctantly pointed to his head towards Qin Ran.
After putting the foam on Chu Batian's head, Qin Ran said, "This is actually a small guarantee. In case the mist is poisonous, or there are poisonous substances, miasma or the like in the mist, it can also be used as a precaution.
"It may affect everyone's breathing, but we are all Jindan cultivators, so we don't need to breathe at all. Just bear with it for a while."
Everyone nodded, and Su Changqing praised: "Brother Qin's knowledge is indeed broad, and the wonderful use of this magical skill is amazing. Fortunately, I asked you to come along."
Hearing this, Jian Yuanjie looked at Qin Ran and asked with a smile, "When did you form the elixir? You didn't even tell me in advance. It would be great if I could help you protect the law."
“It was an unexpected breakthrough.” Qin Ran replied politely, “You know I’ve been stuck in the late stage of foundation building for many years. I could have broken through at any time… I don’t know what happened to me this time.”
An unexpected breakthrough? It's a real possibility.
Jian Yuanjie could accept it, he nodded and said: "Then Senior Brother will congratulate Junior Brother on forming the golden elixir."
"Thank you, Brother."
As they talked, they looked around and found that although the vegetation was lush and green, there was no animal nearby. There were no insects chirping, birds singing, or beasts roaring. It was a strange and quiet place.
quiet.
"Has it always been like this in the depths of the Hengduan Mountains, or is it just like this now?" Su Changqing asked.
"According to records, the closer you get to the depths of the Hengduan Mountains, the higher the level of the monster's bloodline. High-level monsters often have a strong sense of territory, so it is understandable that this place is so quiet."
Qin Ran said, "But at the same time, monsters are monsters, and animals are animals. Ordinary animals should be more numerous the deeper you go. So, this place shouldn't be so quiet."
"What are you talking about?!" Chu Batian asked angrily.
Qin Ran looked at him and didn't reply. He asked Su Changqing, "Were you attacked by any monsters when you came here?"
Flying all the way here, flying over the heads of the monsters, it is naturally easy to be attacked by the violent monsters.
Everyone knew this, but Su Changqing still flew on his cloud boat. It was not because he was stupid, but because his cloud boat was of high enough grade that he was not afraid of attacks from monsters.
"No." Su Changqing shook his head and his expression became serious.
There were no monsters attacking us, which only meant that there were no high-level monsters in the forest; and there were no small animals here either...
Something is wrong!
"That's unusual." Qin Ran looked up at the sky and said, "The last time I came to the Hengduan Mountains, I saw white catkins everywhere. But strangely, there are none now."
"As the Devouring Demon Willow approaches the fusion stage, there should be more and more catkins." Su Changqing continued, "But now there is not a single catkin. So there is only one possibility..."
He glanced at everyone and said, "He is accumulating strength and making final preparations for the Hedao!"
Everyone's hearts trembled when they heard this, which meant that the Devouring Demon Willow would burst out all its catkins at any time. This meant that they would become the nourishment of the Devouring Demon Willow at any time!
"Time is running out..." Chu Batian said anxiously, "Let's go in now!"
"We don't know what's inside. Qin Ran made a cover. So to ensure that everyone doesn't get separated, I also have a treasure here..." Su Changqing took out a jade pendant and six beads. "This jade pendant is called the Mother-Child Soul. The six beads and the jade pendant seem to be separate, but they are actually one. No matter where you are, as long as you hold the beads, you can communicate with the person holding the jade pendant."
As he spoke, he distributed the beads to several people and took a jade pendant and a bead for himself.
"That's it, it's a little bit more complete." Su Changqing said again, "Let's hurry up!"
As he spoke, he walked towards the immortal ruins. After a few steps, he disappeared in the vast fog!
