Chapter 296 Look at the Black Hole Ahead, It’s a Devil’s Cave!
The land of water, Tiangou Mountains.
Chen Dan was walking in the mountains and forests, and Lingji was sitting on his shoulders.
"Sister, it's very inappropriate for you to sit on my shoulders like this."
"If others see it, they will have to gossip about our royal family."
Ling Ji didn't care at all, "In ancient times, everyone didn't have so many weird rules."
Chen Dan picked off a fruit and handed it to Ling Ji's waist, "Sister, how do you think this era compares with the ancient times?"
Ling Ji said: "It's very strange."
"What's weird?"
Ling Ji said: "As time goes by, the overall strength of practitioners should become stronger and stronger, and the entire cultivation world should become more and more developed."
"But according to my recent observations, after more than 100,000 years, you are now lagging behind compared to the ancient times."
"Only the elixir you refined is somewhat interesting. Although there were similar things in ancient times, the effect was not as good as the one you refined."
"It feels like the whole world is getting weaker."
"Well, yes, the whole world is becoming more and more fragile."
"In the beginning of ancient times, the gods had not yet escaped from the world. You could see the gods walking on the earth, but now, you can hardly see them at all."
"That's what happened to me!"
She was extremely confident when she said this.
Lingji took a bite of the fruit and spat it out. The fruit was full of blood stains, and it didn't look like the juice of a normal fruit at all.
"This land is polluted."
"The fruit they bear has a strange smell."
"It's full of disgusting smells."
Chen Dan thought about Ling Ji's words, "Could it be that the war between the Aurora Sect and the Holy Spirit Sect caused countless disasters and caused the era to regress due to the loss of magical powers, techniques, and classics?"
Ling Ji shook her head, "It's understandable to go backward for ten thousand years, but it's very wrong to go backward for more than one hundred thousand years."
“Some things, you just need to know you can do it, then keep trying, and you can always do it again.”
"At least there's a clear goal."
"Even if the classics are lost, future generations can still try them infinitely."
"But now, I don't see any traces of the Holy Spirit Religion. It's as if it has never appeared."
After walking for a while, the two found a village in front of them. The houses collapsed, the fields were barren, and the whole village looked bleak.
There are scattered white bones scattered all over the roadside, one here and one here and there.
The two continued to move forward and suddenly saw a little girl lying on the ground chewing a piece of flesh.
This little girl seems to have no lower body, only the upper body.
Ling Ji said: "She is no longer a human being."
Chen Dan also discovered something special about the little girl. Only her lower body was left, and her face and arms were covered with bloated balls of flesh, which looked extremely scary.
And her lower body was a ball of black smoke.
Seeing the two people appear, the little girl was obviously frightened, and she let out a shrill cry from her throat full of meatballs.
The village suddenly seemed to come alive. A large number of little girl-like beings flew out of a large pit, but the distortion was more complete.
The flesh and blood were twisted, without bones, and the lower body completely turned into black smoke.
The ones that had changed the most among them had completely turned into a ball of black smoke, with frightening red light dancing in their eyes.
A large number of distorted humans flew out and roared at Chen Dan and Ling Ji.
For a moment, it was like a group of demons dancing wildly.
Looking around, my dear, it is really a devil's cave on earth.
Chen Dan said: "It seems that Uncle Wushang's news is true. The entire Kingdom of Water has turned into a devil's cave."
"Can these things be saved?"
Ling Ji shook her head, "I have nothing to do, they have been completely assimilated by the evil spirit."
Chen Dan easily captured a black mist monster, "A monster with strength in the Qi Refining Realm and completely transformed into black mist would probably have the strength of the eighth to ninth level of the Qi Refining Realm."
"If all the mortals in the Kingdom of Water turn into this kind of thing, the war will probably last for a long time."
"At times like this, it's better to use flaming fire to burn the entire thing."
Ling Ji shook her head, "Not only that, the land of the Kingdom of Water has become a breeding ground for evil spirits."
"Under this earth, there is nothing but squirming flesh."
"If it were to be set on fire, it would take at least a year or two to completely burn it out."
Chen Dan said: "In other words, a lot of practitioners who practice fire magic are needed?"
"Yan Lie can use the magical power of raining fire meteorites, which is indeed of great use."
Ling Ji said: "After the fire is burned out, there will be a brand new land, brand new mountains and rivers. At that time, I will give every mountain and every river a nice name!"
While the two continued to explore the current situation in the Kingdom of Water, Chen Qing was discussing matters in the palace.
"The situation in the Kingdom of Water is getting worse and worse. According to the news we have discovered, it has now completely turned into a devil's cave."
"And the entire land has been polluted by Tai Sui and turned into Tai Sui's demon soil."
"In this case, the only way to completely destroy the Water Country is to burn everything with fire."
"I intend to use Yan Lie as my general to establish a demon-slaying army that specializes in fire techniques. What do you think?"
Qi Tianfeng said: "We don't have a lot of fire-type Gu insects in stock, so we need to purchase them in large quantities from King Nanhai and King Yan."
"It's difficult to form an army nowadays. We can only equip three hundred people at most."
"If you want to form an army of one thousand, each person must be equipped with at least three different fire Gus, and you need to purchase at least two thousand more Gus."
Chen Qing asked: "Among the trophies obtained from the battle in the Death World, how many fire-type spiritual Gu were there?"
Su Yi said: "There are thirty-two more."
Chen Qing frowned slightly, this amount was indeed a little less.
"Call Yan Lie!"
After a while, Yan Lie entered the hall wearing a red and black Taoist robe, "See you, Master!"
Chen Qing nodded, "I've called you here now to ask you to build a demon-slaying army that specializes in fire magic."
"You start recruiting people first, two hundred for the entrance level and eight hundred for the foundation."
Chen Qing ordered: "Su Yi, take the spirit Gu that we don't need much now, exchange it with Yan Guo for another eighteen fire-type spirit Gu, and find a way to buy 2,000 fire-type mortal Gu."
"Xuan Mang, from among the practitioners of fire law under your command, select fifty people for Yan Lie to serve as your own soldiers."
"As for the fire spell scriptures, I'll figure it out."
While they were discussing, there was a sudden noise outside, and Chen Qing shouted: "What happened?"
Soon, a Qilin guard came in and said, "Your Majesty, Lan Jingting's corpse was faked!"
Chen Qing said: "Lan Jingting, the small entrance hall is a fake corpse, so what can it do?"
Lu Shenglong immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I would like to go and capture him!"
Chen Qing's eyes fell on Yan Lie, and Yan Lie quickly said: "Master, this disciple is willing to go!"
Chen Qingdao: "Lu Shenglong, you have made great achievements and are ranked as the top general of our Wen Kingdom, but you are just a fraudulent corpse. If you make a move, won't it appear that there is no one in our Wen Kingdom?"
"Let the younger generation take the stage, Yan Lie, go!"
"Lu Shenglong, go and keep an eye on it."
Yan Lie and Lu Shenglong immediately took the order, and after a while, Yan Lie captured Lan Jingting who was deceiving the corpse.
Chen Qing looked at Lan Jingting, who had come back from the dead but was in a very strange state. He had no head and just a ball of black smoke around his neck.
The black smoke said: "King Wen, my lord knows that you don't know the vastness of my lord's supernatural power. In three days, he will definitely come to pay you a visit!"
"It's also good for King Wen to see the might of our Lord reaching heaven!"
"I hope King Wen can think more about what we discussed with King Wen before!"
"It is your blessing that my lord can take a fancy to you. Wouldn't it be a pleasure to sit on the throne with my lord, overlooking the world?"
After saying that, Lan Jingting completely turned into a ball of smoke and disappeared.
Chen Qing sneered, "We haven't taken action yet, but it seems that the Kingdom of Water can't wait any longer."
He stood up and said, "I have conquered the realm of death, marched across the world with eight hundred horses, killed more than ten thousand people in formation, beheaded kings in a hundred battles, and defeated all kings. How can I be so frightening!"
"Send the order, Longxiang Army, Xuanguan Army, and Yuwang Army assemble!"
"I'm going to the border with this king in person. I want to see what kind of battle he has in store!"
Chen Qing stepped down the stairs in front of the throne, "Xuan Mang, you lead the troops to guard King Wen's palace, other generals, follow me!"
Many generals in the main hall were arrogant and high-spirited, and followed Chen Qing out of the main hall. Qi Tianfeng and Li Changqing looked at this scene and laughed, Li Changqing said: "After all, King Wen is young, and he is very aggressive."
Qi Tianfeng smiled and said: "This is Nanli's first King Wen, the overlord who has leveled the realm of death, and is now a mature man, so it is naturally impossible to let others touch his beard."
King Wen's palace was not large, so he recruited soldiers very quickly, and everyone's foot strength was extraordinary.
In just one day, Chen Qing visited the border between Qi Kingdom and Water Kingdom and stationed himself on a high mountain in the Yuelu Mountains.
Chen Qing had just sent out scouts to investigate the enemy's situation, and Su Yi came to report: "Your Majesty, Sun You, the commander-in-chief of Qi State, requested to join the war."
Chen Qing put down the wine glass in his hand, "The war happened on the border of Qi State, so it was natural for him to come."
"Announce his coming!"
Changsun You and others went up to the top of the mountain. In front of the tent on the top of the mountain, he knelt down on one knee and saluted Chen Qing: "General, please pay homage to King Wen!"
Chen Qing nodded, "General, please rise. I heard that Qi also wants to join the war?"
Changsun You said loudly: "My king gave instructions before entering the realm of death. If the world encounters a major event that is difficult to handle, all of them must be at the disposal of King Wen."
"Now that evil spirits are rampant and the sky is clear and the world is clear, they dare to openly challenge King Wen in the royal palace!"
"The war is happening again in our country of Qi. Although my eldest son, Sun You, has no ability, people are bullying me. Naturally, I cannot let him go."
"I came here specifically to obey orders and to be at the disposal of King Wen."
"King Wen, do you need the Qi State to mobilize all its troops and come to join the battle?"
Chen Qing waved his hand and said: "No need to be too nervous, it's just a little bit of a minor incident, and it's not worth using the power of the two countries."
"You can just send a group of soldiers and horses to raid the formation at will."
Changsun You cupped his hands and said, "Yes, I will obey your orders."
After passing the order, he stood on both sides like the generals, waiting for Chen Qing's other orders.
One day later, Chen Qing received news from the scouts that a large number of black fog monsters were gathering near the Yuelu Mountains.
Moreover, there are also a large number of evil cult masters mixed in, such as Taiping Sect, Yin Yang Sect, Shou Shen Sect, and Blood Moon Demon Sect, all of which have evil cultivators.
Chen Qing immediately summoned the generals and began the court meeting again.
At the point of raising the stage, Chen Qing sat on the throne and laughed loudly: "The evil demon has gathered tens of thousands of evil demons, as well as many masters from many cults, to fight me openly."
"Hahahahaha, I have been fighting in the Death Realm for decades, and no one has ever dared to fight me head-on. Now, they are so brave!"
"According to the intelligence from the scouts, they have observed the appearance of three Tongtian Realm. I guess their leader must be the Feathering Realm."
"Senior Shen family, do you have confidence?"
Shen Xinghe, the ancestor of Shen Changye's family, said: "My lord, it's not because my subordinates are weak, but I'm worried about my lord's safety. To keep things safe, it's better to invite a national teacher to come here."
Although Shen Xinghe is also in the Ascended Realm, in terms of strength, compared to the two national masters with profound knowledge, he still feels inferior.
Shen Xinghe's current position in Wen State is that of high priest, and being in charge of sacrifices is a very high-ranking sinecure.
He doesn't have much power, but he is well treated and has a noble status.
Chen Qing also thought it was reasonable. He usually didn't like to take risks, but now that he had a large army in his hands, as the leader of a country, he would definitely not fall into danger easily.
"Let the Zuo Guoshi come!"
Li Changqing came very quickly, and with him came the Xuanwu that was more than 3,000 years old. When Chen Qing saw this Xuanwu, he was also happy in his heart.
The turtle liked him very much, and he liked the turtle very much.
Li Changqing said: "When the war comes, King Wen will invite Xuanwu. With Xuanwu's protection, the normal Ascension Realm will not hurt you."
Chen Qing was overjoyed, "That's great!"
During the discussion, everyone saw a group of demons dancing in front of them, and a black cloud that spread for three hundred miles swept towards this place.
Above the black cloud, countless cultivators were either stepping on the clouds or flying swords and treasures, flying towards here.
Under the black clouds, there are countless flying black fog monsters, covering the sky and covering the earth.
On the ground, the huge mountains collapsed, revealing the huge and ferocious Flesh Dock Castle, with a large number of evil cultivators moving in and out.
The Flesh Wold Castle has a radius of ten miles, is as huge as a mountain, and is shaped like a devil's cave, with countless holes opening and closing, as if it is absorbing the power of heaven and earth.
So many evil cultivators, combined with so many monsters, really give people a direct sense of the rise of evil in the world.
Li Changqing exclaimed: "There are really so many evil cultivators!"
Su Yi said: "It should be that the king unified the realm of death and cut off the path of evil cultivators. They were unable to advance to the profound realm, so they joined the water kingdom."
Yan Lie and You Huang, the first time Yu Xu'er saw such a grand scene, she was also amazed, Yan Lie said: "I am afraid there are dozens of evil cultivators in front of us at the Heaven-reaching Realm and hundreds of people at the Profound Pass Realm!"
"How can these evil cultivators have so many masters?"
Yan Lie said: "The main thing is that they still have a city. This black smoke monster, if you look at it, is densely packed like a sea, I'm afraid there are no less than a hundred thousand!"
When Chen Qing saw this scene, he felt his blood boil. Since he was promoted to the Xuan Guan realm, his strength has increased several times.
Apart from being unable to let go of his hands and feet and being crushed and beaten violently by Dan Yunzi, he hadn't fought normally before, seeing so many enemies now, he just felt itchy.
Chen Qing stepped forward, "How brave, you actually dare to come!"
The battle is about to begin, and everyone's eyes are focused on Chen Qing, expecting this overlord who is the most brave and brave Nan Li to give orders.
Lu Chen appeared in Chen Qing's hand, "Look at the black hole ahead, it's a devil's cave!" (End of Chapter)
