The old patriarch asked Yun Mo to wait here for a while, then got up and left. Yun Mo didn't detect the other party with his soul consciousness, but waited quietly. After a while, the old patriarch returned, holding a fist-sized wooden box in his hand.
"It's this thing. As long as the gods hold this thing, they can find the gate to hell." The old patriarch handed the wooden box to Yunmo.
Yun Mo took the wooden box and opened it gently, and a dazzling light shot out of the wooden box, which really shocked him. When he found that this light was not dangerous, Yun Mo relaxed his mind. He looked into the wooden box and found a small ball in the shape of an eyeball lying quietly in the wooden box. And that dazzling light was shot by this small ball.
Yun Mo gently took out the ball, and realized that no matter how he placed the ball, the light was always pointing in a certain direction in the ancient battlefield.
"This..." Yun Mo was a little surprised, this thing was so peculiar, he couldn't understand the principle.
Suddenly, Yun Mo's heart moved. He repacked the small ball into the wooden box and asked the old patriarch: "Patriarch, have you ever heard of a person called the Shadowless Thief?"
"Shadow Thief?" The old patriarch thought for a while, then laughed, "There is such a person, ha ha, I have not only heard of it, but also seen it."
"Have you seen?!" Yun Mo almost jumped up when he heard the words. This is too evil. I don't know if this old man has lived for a long time, or if he is lying. However, Yunmo prefers the latter, after all, even the strongest star realm can't live so long.
"I've seen it." The old patriarch nodded affirmatively. "That is a very interesting fairy who calls himself a shadowless thief, but he came to our village and didn't steal anything. How could this be called a thief? Back then. Deliberately pretending to be something and left the village just to make it easier for the god to'steal,' but he didn't steal anything. Haha, that was already decades ago."
"A few decades ago? The patriarch was teasing me, right?" Yunmo said speechlessly, and I don't know how many tens of thousands of years have passed. In the mouth of this old patriarch, it turned out to be decades.
The old patriarch thought for a while, and said: "Actually, I don't remember it very clearly. Maybe it's hundreds of years. At that time, I was young and didn't have a deep memory. Hehe, that god was also chosen to repair hell. By the way, I still remember that before the god left, he said he was going to hell and stole everything there. I don’t know if his old man did it. But I think it should not. He is like other people. Like a god, he never appeared again after entering hell. If nothing else, he might have gone from hell to reincarnation just like other gods."
Yunmo was silent for a while, what the old patriarch meant, naturally meant that the shadowless thief might have died in hell. This shadowless thief is really a wonderful person, and he wants to steal hell, but he takes his own life.
Hearing the words of the old patriarch, Yun Mo felt a little heavy. This ancient battlefield was probably full of danger, otherwise a powerful figure like the Shadowless Thief would not die in it. However, he also has more hope in his heart. At least, with this small ball, his goal is more clear, so that he won't be looking for like a headless fly in the ancient battlefield. The Shadowless Thief entered the ancient battlefield with this thing, so Yunmo holding the small ball is very likely to find Qian Leiyin's whereabouts.
As for the old patriarch said that he had seen the shadowless thieves, Yunmo naturally did not believe it. Perhaps, he heard the elders talk about it when he was a child, and his memory was blurred, so he mistakenly thought he had experienced it.
After asking some more questions, Yun Mo finally had some bottom in his heart. After entering the ancient battlefield, he had a great chance to find Qian Lei Yin.
After the sun went down, the various delicacies cooked by the villagers were also ready, and an unusually grand banquet was held in the village. The children are most happy, and what they like most is this scene. They were very satisfied with delicious food and lively.
Some people come to toast from time to time. As a warrior, Yunmo is naturally not afraid, and those who come are not rejected. Eating delicious food and drinking fine wine, Yunmo was a little bit emotional. The food here is actually much more delicious than other places, and the wine is more mellow.
After a while, a fire rose in the yard, and some villagers sang and danced beside the fire, which was very lively.
The young women in the village looked at Yun Mo with admiration. Some bold girls came to Yun Mo and invited Yun Mo to dance, but Yun Mo smiled and declined.
Yunmo ate delicious food and drank fine wine, and was extremely satisfied and relaxed. After coming to Zhongzhou, this might be the first time he was so relaxed. The banquet lasted several hours before it ended. Many villagers went home and Yunmo was also arranged to rest in the best room in the village.
"Take a break and enter the ancient battlefield tomorrow." Yun Mo muttered to himself, and then sat on the bed, half practicing and half resting.
In the early hours of the morning, Yun Mo suddenly opened his eyes and looked out the window suspiciously.
Vaguely, he seemed to hear someone singing something, that tone was very ancient. In the previous life, he seemed to have heard it vaguely somewhere, but he didn't remember it very clearly.
"It feels like a sacrificial voice." Yunmo whispered, then gently opened the door of the room and walked out. Later, he saw a picture that surprised him inexplicably.
I saw a group of villagers, men and women of all ages, holding strange incense, and bowing to the depths of the ancient battlefield. The one in the front was the patriarch. He did not kneel down and stood there, chanting an ancient ballad in his mouth.
The old patriarch noticed Yunmo, leaning on a cane, slowly walking towards this side, while the others continued to kneel down, as if they hadn't seen Yunmo.
"Please forgive me for disturbing the gods," the old patriarch said apologetically.
Yun Mo asked suspiciously, "Patriarch, who are you?"
The old patriarch explained: “Because of a problem in hell, the ghosts between heaven and earth cannot reach the hell for reincarnation, so they can only be guided into hell by humans. Our forbidden clan is responsible for this. The ghosts of this world have to enter the hell. They enter from the gate of the forbidden area. They don't know the direction and can only be guided by us. Every month on the soul-attracting day, we will hold the soul-attracting ceremony to lead thousands of ghosts into hell for reincarnation."
Yun Mo smiled reluctantly, he naturally wouldn't believe such a statement. After living for so long, he had never heard of such a weird thing. Perhaps this is just an ordinary ceremony created by the Forbidden Land Clan to commemorate the dead.
"Please bear with me. There is only one day a month." The old patriarch apologized, and then walked to the front of the crowd again and began to chant the ancient syllables.
Looking at these village names, Yun Mo shook his head and laughed helplessly. However, just when he was about to turn and leave, he suddenly looked up to the sky. He was shocked to find that the blue smoke from the incense in the hands of the village name gathered together at high altitude, deep into the ancient battlefield. Flew everywhere. And in the high sky, there are really endless ghosts flying with these blue smoke to the depths of the ancient battlefield.
At this moment, Yun Mo was a little dazed, he couldn't understand everything he saw. He can be sure that these scenes are not illusions created by the villagers with their spiritual energy and Tao. These villagers are indeed just mortals. In fact, they did not notice the vision in the sky at all.
"What the hell is going on?" Yunmo had too many questions, but couldn't get the answer.
Suddenly, Yun Mo vaguely sensed a strange power of Taoism, this power of Taoism was far beyond his understanding, profound and obscure to the extreme. Yun Mo understood in an instant that this is an opportunity!
Without hesitation, he took out a Dao Yuan Dan, ate it, and then sat down cross-legged, trying to comprehend that avenue.
Before long, Yunmo's consciousness became a little fuzzy. Vaguely, he seemed to be in the midst of thousands of Taoisms, and endless Taoisms converge into a sea. He tried hard to hold the waters that Taoism turned into in his hands, but it was difficult to do so. Moreover, there is an invisible force that pulls him down, as if to drown him in the Taoist rules.
Yunmo seemed to feel evil, and he seemed to feel sacred, all kinds of weird experiences flooded in. In the end, he was completely plunged into the ocean of Taoism, and a sense of suffocation came, making him extremely uncomfortable.
"what!"
Yun Mo woke up in shock, cold sweat on his forehead. Looking around, he found that he was sitting on the grass, his clothes wet with dew, and he felt a little cold. The sun rose from the sky in the distance, shedding the first ray of light today.
And around, where there is any farmland, it's just a wilderness. The village, the villagers, the farmland, everything, disappeared. Everything yesterday seemed to be something Yunmo had imagined.
"What the hell is going on?" Yun Mo's eyes widened, and he couldn't understand. However, when he flipped his hand, a wooden box the size of a fist appeared in his hand.
"This..." Yun Mo showed a dazed look, all of this was too weird.
"Hey, kid, have you seen the vision before?" Suddenly a voice sounded.
Yun Mo turned his head and looked around, and saw more than a dozen people riding various monster beasts, looking at him. The leader is riding a golden elephant with unfathomable breath. After seeing this person, Yunmo's pupils suddenly shrank, because he couldn't see through this person's cultivation. Then, the other party must be asking the cultivation base of the middle stage of the state of mind and above!
"Hey, kid, I want to ask you something!" shouted one person.
The expert at that mental state of mind looked at Yunmo, his expression suddenly moved, and a ray of light appeared in his eyes.
"It's you!"
