The Star-Swallowing Sword Tree is very strange. All the starlight within dozens of miles around it will be absorbed by it, but when it leaves, the starlight will reappear, but will be much dimmer.
Therefore, everyone who entered the Falling Star Sea believed that the Star-Swallowing Sword Tree had swallowed up the starlight and absorbed the power.
There are many rumors about the Star-Swallowing Sword Tree. Some say it is everywhere, but some say there is only one.
However, no matter what the rumors are, people will be more afraid of the thousand-foot-tall Star-Swallowing Sword Tree.
After listening to Emperor Eel Ting's description of the Star-Swallowing Sword Tree, Fang Yun had a familiar feeling, but the strange thing was that, when he thought about it roughly, he seemed to have seen it after Leaping over the Dragon Gate, in the Sky Tree, in Dragon Cliff, etc., but if he recalled carefully, he found that the Star-Swallowing Sword Tree did not exist anywhere.
Time passed slowly, one day, two days, three days...
The group was almost always on the road, and under the leadership of Emperor Eel Ting, they did not encounter any danger.
Along the way, it was mostly Eel King who did the talking, so much so that later everyone thought he was a nagging eel, but everyone also felt that what he said was very useful.
After several days of long journey, the seven team members gradually became familiar with each other, and began to chat occasionally, and their relationship became increasingly close.
On the seventh day, everyone was chatting. Fang Yun glanced ahead and continued listening to everyone's conversation.
After a few breaths, Emperor Eel said, "Slow down, we are almost at the Imperial Land."
The four veteran team members all showed complicated expressions, but then became fully alert.
Although the three new team members Fang Yun, King Yun Gen and Xiang Yihuang were also vigilant, they were more curious and excited.
Slowly, everyone's speed slowed down to one second.
Talent surged in Fang Yun's eyes, and all the starlight turned into extremely tiny points of light, revealing the scene ahead.
Among the many spots of light, there was a translucent colorful glow that floated slowly and boundlessly.
In the rosy glow, one can see a vast expanse of loess land, desolate and monotonous, like a desert that has been weathered for thousands of years.
After walking for a long time, Xiang Yihuang said, "I see it!"
Emperor Eel Ting warned: "From now on, you must not yell or make random moves. Without my order, even if a dragon points its teeth at your heads, you must calmly swallow the stinking saliva flowing into your mouth!"
When Ao Fen heard this, he opened his mouth and exhaled lightly, then continued to inhale through his nose, as if he was smelling his own saliva.
"Stinky!" said the Water Desolate Emperor.
"Dead jellyfish!" Ao Fen became angry and embarrassed.
The closer they got to the Emperor's Land, the slower their speed became. Finally, they slowly passed through the colorful clouds and stepped onto the Emperor's Land.
Not feeling anything strange, the three new team members breathed a sigh of relief.
Emperor Eel said, "Okay, we can take a break. The colorful rays of light at the edge of the imperial land have a very strange power that can stop the wronged souls from the outside world. Next, we have to worry about the dangers within the imperial land."
Emperor Eel Ting did not continue speaking, and the other three veteran team members also remained silent.
The seven people began to rest, and Fang Yun immediately lay down on the sand boat and fell asleep, although it was very uncomfortable.
An hour later, the voice of Emperor Eel Thunder was heard.
"We are going to set off again."
Fang Yun immediately came to his senses after hearing this and found that everyone was the same as him. The tiredness disappeared and they became full of energy.
Emperor Eel led the way in front, and the other six team members followed silently behind him.
Emperor Eel Ting looked up at the sky and said, "In the Imperial Land, the sky is a forbidden area. You must never fly high. Also, once you enter the dark night of the Imperial Land, never stop to rest. Keep walking, don't fly, whether you are moving forward or sideways, even if you are turning in a circle, don't stop. Once you stop, you will never be able to get out."
The three new team members suddenly felt terrified.
Xiang Yihuang asked in a low voice: "What is there in the dark night of the imperial land?"
"The existence of great terror, the great power of unknown." Emperor Eel Thunder said slowly.
Xiang Yihuang hurriedly said: "Please remind me when the time comes. I don't want to die."
Ao Fen laughed and said, "Don't be afraid. As long as you don't stop, you won't die. No one dies on their own in the dark night of the imperial land."
"Be, dead."
Ao Fen was choked by Shui Kuhuang's words.
Emperor Eel Ting looked solemn and said, "Now you understand, don't you? In the dark night of the imperial land, trapping one person is equivalent to killing him. Once you encounter an enemy in the dark night of the imperial land, it is better to be injured than to be trapped. If you are trapped, you will die."
"Thank you all for the reminder." Xiang Yihuang hurriedly expressed his gratitude.
Ao Fen rolled his eyes and said, "Xiang Yihuang, I found that you have a problem."
"Ah? Please tell me, senior. I will change it immediately!" Xiang Yihuang said hurriedly.
"You are a little timid!" Ao Fen said with a wicked smile.
Xiang Yihuang coughed lightly to hide his embarrassment and said, "It's a disease I got when I was a child. But I'm very strong, so it doesn't matter if I'm a little timid."
Everyone was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
The Elephant King is so big, just like a city wall, yet he is so timid. I wonder how he cultivated to this level.
Fang Yun looked around the imperial land.
It is just as desolate here as it looks from the outside. The pure yellow soil and hills constitute the only color between heaven and earth. If you want to find other colors, you can only look at the colorful glow covering the imperial land.
Emperor Eel said, "I've said before that the imperial land doesn't climb mountains. Those small hills and mountains may look harmless, but you should never go up there, even if it takes a day's detour."
"Will he die?" asked Xiang Yihuang.
Emperor Eel said, "Not only will they die, but they will die miserably. We once saw the emperor of another team climb a small hill, only three meters high, not even up to your knees. Then, the emperor went crazy. He kept running and running, and his body was like a water bag with dozens of holes pierced in it. All the strength began to leak out, and later even his intestines, heart, lungs, and even bones flowed out, and in the end, only a piece of skin was left."
Ao Fen said: "Finally, the skin stood up, like a living thing, glanced at us, then jumped into the hill and disappeared."
"Is it so scary?" Xiang Yihuang widened his eyes.
Emperor Eel said, "So, the Imperial Land is a treasure land, but also a dangerous land. There are many taboos in the Imperial Land, and there are many things that cannot be done. I heard from others that there was a semi-saint who was shouting in the Imperial Land, and then two giant hands came down from the sky and tore the semi-saint apart for hundreds of breaths like tearing dried fish, and they kept tearing him apart even after he was torn into a paste."
"If you had told me earlier that the imperial land was like this, I would not have come!" Xiang Yihuang said in a low voice.
Emperor Eel Ting comforted him, "Okay, don't be afraid. We all know 99% of the taboos in the Imperial Land. As long as you don't do anything stupid, you won't die."
"Ninety-nine percent? What about the last taboo?" asked Xiang Yihuang.
Ao Fen rolled his eyes at Xiang Yihuang and said, "We'll know when someone else breaks the new taboo and is killed."
"Can I... quit?" asked Xiang Yihuang.
"Too late!" Emperor Eel Thunder, Ao Fen, Emperor Rock Pattern, King Yun Root and Fang Yun said in unison, and then laughed together.
"Alas..." The Elephant Emperor shook his big nose, feeling desperate.
