I don't know why, but as he gets closer to this isolated island, Ye Chen gradually feels a little uneasy, but this feeling is extremely subtle. Could it be that there is something terrifying hidden in this forbidden land
After thinking about it, I probably was too suspicious. WwW,QunabEN,coM
The forbidden land has a history of tens of thousands of years. Every once in a while, masters from various countries will enter the forbidden land to compete. If there is something terrible, it should have been discovered long ago.
Ye Chen couldn't understand what the makers of this rule were thinking. Was it just to avoid excessive casualties among the people? If that's the case, it can be considered a meritorious deed. However, the change of dynasties is inevitable, and wars will inevitably kill people. For example, the Seibu Empire was defeated in the Forbidden Territory, and the Southern Barbarians invaded the Seibu Empire on a large scale. Then all life would be in ruins.
After thinking about it, all I can do is to help the Seibu Empire win this battle, and maybe avoid some wars.
"We will enter from the east of the Forbidden Land, while the masters of the Southern Barbarians will enter from the west."
"This is a topographic map of the island."
"The forbidden area is a hundred miles in circumference, and there are three high mountains in it. The jungle inside is dense, making it easy to hide. Be careful not to fall into an ambush."
Emperor Mingwu handed everyone a terrain map, looked at Ye Chen and said: "We'd better act together to avoid being defeated individually."
"The team should have a leader." A land master next to him said.
"I don't know how to command, so I'll leave it to Your Majesty." Ye Chen said, these earthly masters are all taking orders from Emperor Mingwu. If they command themselves, they may not obey.
Emperor Mingwu pondered for a moment, turned around and said to his subordinates: "Let's leave it to Ye Chen's command. No one can disobey any instructions given by Ye Chen."
"But. Your Majesty..." A group of Earth Masters wanted to say something anxiously.
"Are you going to disobey me?" Emperor Mingwu shouted coldly.
"I don't dare." All the Earth Masters bowed their heads.
"I'm afraid I won't be able to convince everyone about this." Ye Chen scratched his head and said.
Nie Qingyun and the old man transformed into a sky-covering firebird naturally wanted Ye Chen to take command. They didn't understand why Ye Chen was so polite to Mingwu. With the dignity of the demon king, he could crush Emperor Mingwu to death with just one finger. , and thought about it again, how could they understand what the Demon King wanted to do.
It is said that many demon kings are hidden among humans. Just to feel the various conditions of the world and seek a breakthrough in realm. Most of these demon kings have reached the peak of demon kings, and it is difficult to improve their realm strength. If they go one step further, they will reach the legendary supreme realm, which is comparable to that of heaven. Nie Qingyun and the old man transformed into a sky-covering firebird were a little more in awe of Ye Chen.
Emperor Mingwu shook his head slightly and said to Ye Chen: "You don't have to refuse. Head Nie and this senior are all taking orders from you. But I can't command you. Besides, you can discover the sea monster before anyone else." I am ashamed of my foresight in attacking the building ship."
After hearing what Emperor Mingwu said, all the masters under Emperor Mingwu were convinced. Thinking about it, Nie Qingyun and this old man are both at the Heavenly level. They may not be willing to obey Emperor Mingwu, but they are obedient to Ye Chen, and Ye Chen doesn't know what method he used to subdue the octopus and sea monster. It also convinced everyone.
"In that case, I won't refuse." Ye Chen nodded and said that his soul perception could indeed play a big role.
Ye Chen looked at the isolated island from a distance, his brows slightly furrowed.
Everyone sat cross-legged on the deck, practicing quietly and waiting patiently.
Ahri jumped on Ye Chen's shoulder. Ye Chen seemed to feel that Ahri was also a little uneasy. He stroked Ahri's back with his hand and comforted Ahri.
Thinking about it, it's not a big deal. I heard from Emperor Mingwu that so many masters in the past dynasties have entered the forbidden land, but they have never heard of any terrifying monsters or beasts in the forbidden land.
Maybe it's because after he came back from Netherworld Palace, he would be a little suspicious every time he went to a new place.
Xiaoyi was very carefree, running along the side of the ship, saying hello to the squid in the sea from time to time, and having a great time.
The building boat moved forward with the wind and docked at a pier. I don’t know what era it was built in. The pier was made of huge rocks and covered with various green plants. It looked very interesting. Several stones on the edge of the pier , there are deep wear marks, some are very old, and some are still relatively new, which shows that they have been used quite a lot.
Not only the Seibu Empire and the Barbarian Kingdom, but also other countries would use forbidden areas when fighting.
"We're at the place, let's go down, let the little squid stay in the sea." Ye Chen thought for a while and said, it seems that there is no big use in following the little squid, it is better to let it stay in the sea.
Ye Chen, Emperor Mingwu and others jumped off the boat and walked along the flat ground.
Xiaoyi and others followed closely.
The bottom was originally supposed to be a beach, but now it was covered with stones. I don't know where these stones were moved from. Each one weighed at least a thousand kilograms, and they were laid flat there one by one, leading all the way to the front.
As we walked forward, there was a huge archway in front of us, more than ten meters high, made entirely of stones, with the four characters "Forbidden Land" written on it. These four words "Forbidden Land" were quite impressive. Vigorous and powerful, but compared with the four words "Underground Qionglou", it lacks a bit of flavor.
In front of the archway, there is an open space with a radius of several hundred meters for people to move around. Under the archway, there are two people standing vaguely, wearing golden armor, standing on both sides, proudly motionless.
Is there anyone guarding this forbidden area? How strange. Guarding the gate here, sleeping in the open air, not to mention hard work, there seems to be no benefit, who would do it
Everyone walked all the way to the open space.
"There are still five days until the Forbidden Land is actually opened. Let's wait here first. The two people in front are from the Law Enforcement Hall, and they are responsible for guarding the Forbidden Land. They are the top two Xuanzuns. Master." Emperor Mingwu said to Ye Chen, "For tens of thousands of years, the people of the Law Enforcement Hall have been here. I estimate that they change shifts every certain years. They always wear gray cloaks and never show their true colors. And never replaced.”
"Law Enforcement Hall?" Ye Chen was stunned for a moment and asked, "What kind of organization is that?" Two masters from the top of Xuanzun were actually sent to guard the gate here. Are top masters from Xuanzun so worthless? Moreover, what benefits can the people from the Law Enforcement Hall gain from staying here? It's really puzzling.
"I'm not particularly sure. They call themselves gods, and the order and rules of the entire Eastern Continent are set by them. It is said that in history, countless large sects and empires have united to resist the Law Enforcement Hall, but they were all suppressed by the Law Enforcement Hall. This law enforcement hall is a very mysterious and powerful force." Emperor Mingwu also looked solemn when talking about the law enforcement hall.
Ye Chen has always guessed that the reason why the demon kings dare not enter the human world and massacre humans is because there is a force among humans that can check and balance the demon kings. Now his suspicion has been confirmed.
Looking towards the two top Xuanzun experts standing motionless in front of him guarding the door, Ye Chen's soul moved, and his soul stretched towards them. He didn't know what kind of skills these people practiced. It was said that they never showed their true colors. Show people, I want to see what they look like.
The two Xuanzun masters didn't notice anyone spying on them at all. They just stood upright and motionless, as if any commonplace matter had nothing to do with them and nothing could disturb them.
When Ye Chen's soul penetrated deep into the black cloak, Ye Chen's heart suddenly felt cold.
What kind of human beings are these two!
Ye Chen looked over their whole bodies. Their bodies were all made of some kind of special metal. There was no trace of human skin. There was also a ferocious mask in the black cloak, just to hide their true appearance. Their faces, their true appearance, are actually just metal puppets!
The soul penetrated deep into the body of one of the puppets, and Ye Chen felt a trace of soul, which was a human soul! This soul was sealed in the body of the metal puppet. It was probably the soul of a powerful person at the top of Xuanzun, and it still had a trace of consciousness.
No wonder they are willing to stand here as guards, rain or shine. It turns out that they are not human beings. Because they are not human beings, their lifespans are extremely long and they may have stood here for tens of thousands of years.
After confirming the identities of these two guys, Ye Chen took his soul back, and the group found a place in the open space, pitched a tent on the spot, and prepared to wait for the forbidden land to open.
"Your Majesty, have you ever heard of a secret method that can seal human souls in a body made of metal?" Ye Chen couldn't help but asked Emperor Mingwu out of curiosity.
"Sealing human souls in a body made of metal?" Emperor Mingwu was stunned for a moment. Why did Ye Chen suddenly ask this? What suddenly occurred to his mind, he said, "I have indeed heard that there is such a person. The secret technique is called human puppet technique!"
"Human puppetry? What kind of secret method is it?" Ye Chen asked.
"The Human Puppet Technique is an extremely cruel secret method. First, you need to make a pair of unconscious metal puppets, then grab a living person, open their skull, and slowly take out their soul using a unique Soul-Capturing Spirit Treasure. , this method lasts for 7749 days, during these 7749 days, the person who is subjected to the method is in pain and wishes to live. The more painful he is before death, the stronger the residual soul left behind after death will be, and it will be able to maintain The reason why it does not dissipate for thousands of years is the same as the reason why resentful spirits do not dissipate easily. After seven or forty-nine days, use the human puppet technique to drive the soul into the metal puppet to form a human puppet with combat power. Even worse than before, and can survive tens of thousands of years without dying! Some people can even become stronger through cultivation."
