Chapter 168: The Third Level of Innateness, Exploring the Mirage Sea Again
Chen Mo's true energy was flowing and stirring, and the opportunity of heaven and earth was stirring back and forth.
His cultivation had just broken through, and now he had entered the third level of the innate realm, and his own strength had increased slightly.
This was just a small realm, and there was no obstacle in the way, so it was not difficult to break through.
But at this level, the opportunity of heaven and earth in the warrior's dantian was already sufficient
As long as he was given some time to polish his cultivation, he could consider impacting the fourth level of the innate realm, so that the dantian could be sublimated and transformed into the purple mansion.
After a long exhalation of turbid air to end this closed-door practice, Chen Mo put away the futon and stood up and walked out of the secret room for practice.
A crescent moon hung in the sky, and the whole world was extremely quiet, with only the roaring night wind.
In the sky, countless snowflakes fell with the wind. Now it was the end of the winter month, and it was the coldest days of the year.
Chen Mo, dressed in a green outfit, walked into the air and left the capital.
There was a formation guarding the capital, and it was indeed impossible to fly at will, but he had the emperor's magic sword on him, and the formation could not hurt him.
Chen Mo was very fast. In just a moment, he was hundreds of miles away from the capital and arrived near a military camp.
This military camp was where he personally arranged the imperial guards to be stationed. Even the barracks were recently built. There are about 2,000 people in the camp now.
With his current strength, exploring this mirage sea should not be too dangerous.
If he can get through it smoothly, or even easily, then Chen Mo will consider exploring the mirage sea with about 2,500 people.
The source of the mirage sea is no longer traceable. According to what Chen Mo saw in the mirage mirror, the mirage sea was brought by a drop of blood.
But no one knows who that drop of blood belongs to and where it came from.
These things, let alone in their era, even several eras ago, are still an unsolved mystery.
Perhaps there was a powerful person who explored the source of this drop of blood, but countless time has passed, and this information has not been passed down.
Later generations no longer know the specific source of the mirage sea, but only know that it is extremely dangerous.
Various strange creations and creatures will evolve in it, and their existence itself is eroding the world.
Because the world is eroded, many rules are distorted, and the resistance to the mirage sea is weaker, and even some creatures in the mirage sea can come to the present world.
For example, the human skin lantern is something that should not appear. It is only because of the erosion of the world by the mirage sea that these weird things that should not appear appear.
Chen Mo looked up at the sky, and on the crescent moon emitting blood light, there was a hazy black shadow.
The black shadow is also the external manifestation of the mirage sea's erosion of the laws of this world. If this black shadow covers it, the entire moon will turn it into red.
Then by then, the boundless water of the mirage sea may have submerged most of the areas of this world, and only a few ruins and cave paradises can survive for another ten years.
Chen Mo did not fully activate his eyes, but only kept it within the range of being able to see the black shadow.
Because if he wanted to spy on the black shadow on the moon with all his strength, he might fall directly into the mirage sea.
And in this case, it is hard to say what the mirage sea he entered will be like.
Perhaps a few eras ago, there were predecessors who explored it and some information about it was passed on.
But in this era, there are strong people who accidentally fell into it, but no one has ever come back alive.
So the situation there is completely unknown.
The strong people in this world only looked at the surface of the mirage sea and did not go deeper.
According to the information left by the predecessors, although it is not clear how many layers the mirage sea has, it is certain that there is more than one layer.
There may be more weirdness inside, or there may be scenes that are completely different from the outside world, and it may even contain the true source and cause of the mirage sea.
But to find out these things, you need extremely strong strength.
Chen Mo can only stay in the outer layer of the mirage sea now, so he is naturally far from qualified to find out such secrets.
Even in this era, since records began, the number of warriors who had explored the surface of the Mirage Sea was no more than 30,000, which was the size of a small city.
This was just an exploration, and they did not disturb too many mirage beasts in it, otherwise they might not be able to come back alive.
There was no way, the Mirage Sea was too strong, and the strong men of this era were too weak.
They had various means left by their predecessors, and knew how to disperse it in a short time when the erosion of the Mirage Sea on the world was getting stronger day by day.
But these were just following the map, and in terms of the exploration and utilization of the Mirage Sea, they were far inferior to their predecessors.
Fortunately, there was the Mysterious Gate of Heaven and Earth. Once this gate was opened, it could connect to other worlds and fight against the erosion of the Mirage Sea together.
To open this Mysterious Gate of Heaven and Earth, you need extremely strong strength. Similarly, the ancestors of all generations also left countless secret treasures and information in the Mysterious Gate of Heaven and Earth.
It can even be said that the accumulation of resources of several eras are stored in it, which is used to be preserved for future generations.
Because when an era comes to an end, it will be completely swallowed by the sea of mirage, and these resources will no longer be useful.
Rather than wasting them, it is better to seal them in the Mysterious Gate of Heaven and Earth.
If you want to use these resources and understand the information left by these predecessors, you must push open the Mysterious Gate of Heaven and Earth, otherwise you can't take them at all.
Perhaps even the strong man who refined the Mysterious Gate of Heaven and Earth several eras ago did not expect it.
One day, their descendants will be so weak that even a strong man in the realm of heaven and man cannot be born.
Chen Mo rushed all the way to the military camp. In the middle of the winter night, there was no one in the military camp except a few patrolling soldiers.
This is not a town, so there is no protection from the national destiny dragon energy
The Dragon Qi of National Fortune is all over Daqian, and it can also fight against the sea of mirage.
If all the night watchmen in a city are accidentally killed, the Dragon Qi of National Fortune will be activated to temporarily protect the city.
At the same time, the court will mobilize all the forces that can be mobilized as much as possible to go to that city first to check the situation.
If this happens, the court can even recruit innate strongmen from aristocratic families or sects.
Of course, once the Dragon Qi of National Fortune is activated, it will inevitably be consumed.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, the Dragon Qi of National Fortune is always dormant and will not protect a certain city for a long time. Even in the capital, more people are arranged to patrol and guard the night.
And once a force dares to kill the night watchmen in an organized manner, not only the court, but all forces in the world will join forces to completely wipe out the force that did this.
Because whoever dares to do this is equivalent to an unstable bomb that can explode at any time.
Even the most extreme demons will reject such people.
Because doing so is completely harmful to others and not beneficial to oneself.
The demons act without scruples, often using living people to practice martial arts, and some of them are even rebels against the court.
But the demons are not fools. No matter what they do, it is always for their own interests, not just for killing people.
They will not sacrifice themselves to destroy the lives of a city.
In addition, the important places in various cities are not only protected by formations, but also blessed by dragon energy.
Therefore, the incident that all the people in the entire city fell into the sea of mirage due to the killing of the night watchman often only occurred when the country was in turmoil and the world was in chaos.
Nowadays, although there are wars in the world, the overall situation is still stable, so such things naturally rarely happen.
Chen Mo put on his armor, inspected the situation of the military camp, found a weak point for patrolling, concealed his body, and stepped into it.
The gray fog in front of him gradually spread, and the mirage sea filled with endless gray fog appeared in front of him again.
But this time it was different.
This mirage sea was no longer just gray fog, but a thatched cottage appeared, which was not big, about two feet square.
The thatched cottage was very quiet, without any sound.
Chen Mo immediately became alert. In fact, not only him, but many innate masters have also explored the mirage sea.
It's just that their demand for resources is limited, so the frequency is far less than his.
But from their exploration experience, one thing can be determined, that is, once any building appears in a mirage sea.
Then inside and outside this building, there is a high probability that extremely powerful mirage beasts or established rules will appear.
The rules emerge with this building, but will constrain everything around.
Unlike the ruins, the rules generated by the mirage sea will change according to the established time law.
When the next moon rises, the rules of this mirage sea will change again, but the thatched cottage will still be the one in front of him.
Unless Chen Mo destroys it, and then the mirage sea evolves again.
Looking at the thatched cottage in front of him, Chen Mo's true energy condensed in his hand and turned into a feather arrow and shot straight.
"Swish!" The feather arrow hit the thatched cottage, causing countless thatched grasses to vibrate.
However, the thatched hut did not collapse, but still stood there quietly.
"Squeak..." A harsh and tooth-grinding sound was heard, and the old thatched wooden door suddenly opened automatically.
A figure emerged from the wooden door. The figure was very strange, with a bloated body and no facial features, like a balloon that was about to explode.
However, from the first moment it appeared in front of Chen Mo, his torso and even his face began to change constantly.
Pieces of skin and muscles, like clay, were being beaten and reshaped.
Chen Mo looked carefully. This person was imitating himself. The armor he wore had already appeared on his body, and his facial features were becoming more and more similar to his own.
"One, two, three, wooden man, don't talk or move!"
The bloated figure suddenly spoke, and his voice sounded particularly old.
His mouth was still moving back and forth on his face, as if looking for a suitable position, but he changed again and again, but he was still not satisfied.
Chen Mo suddenly sensed an extremely powerful repressive force, which restricted him firmly in place.
The water of the mirage sea seemed to be suppressing him, making it impossible for him to break this rule.
The eyes of the bloated figure no longer moved, but stared at him.
Chen Mo also found at this moment that as long as he stared at the other party, it would not be able to react.
The rule restrictions apply to everything around, whether it is Chen Mo or the mirage beast.
But when he blinked lightly, in an instant, the torso and facial features of the other party would move again and begin to further imitate him.
Obviously, the rule here is that only when you observe the other party, the other party cannot move quietly.
As it became more and more similar to Chen Mo, the smile on the face of the mirage beast also seemed a little proud.
Chen Mo stopped blinking and stared at the other party. He could naturally control his body to perfection now, even if he didn't blink for a few days and nights.
But if it continued like this, it would be meaningless to himself.
The blood in Chen Mo's body began to stir, and he was ready to break this rule by force.
Whether it was the mirage sea or the ruins, if there were rules, there would be solutions.
A more clever method is to find loopholes and flaws in the rules through continuous attempts, so as to unlock the rules here or make them unable to restrict themselves to the greatest extent.
In addition, there is a more brutal solution, which is to rely on strong enough strength to break the restrictions of the rules.
Whether it is the Ruins or the Mirage Sea, both have their strengths and weaknesses.
The Mirage Sea that Chen Mo stepped into only had a scale of 2,000 people and was not connected to the waters of other Mirage Seas.
As long as the power he exerted exceeded that of this Mirage Sea, then this rule would definitely not be able to restrict him.
Chen Mo had something in mind and took action immediately. This rule only prevented him from moving and changing at will, but his body was still under his control.
The blood and qi in his body continued to stimulate vibrations, and his strength was further rising.
The 150,000-jin mark, the 200,000-jin mark, and the 300,000-jin mark were broken through one after another. The blood and qi like wolf smoke rushed up to the sky, stirring up countless gray fogs.
The true qi in Chen Mo's body also began to run wild, and the extremely strong and yang true qi, like violent magma, kept trying to burst out.
Seeing this, the mirage beast looked obviously a little flustered, but still did not dare to do anything, and could only stare at Chen Mo.
The rules that he had used to restrict Chen Mo had now become a cage that bound him.
Chen Mo stared at the mirage beast, and a smile gradually appeared on his face. As long as he was strong enough, the so-called rules would not be able to restrict him.
"Greedy Wolf Style, twelve times the force!"
He moved suddenly, at an extremely fast speed, like lightning breaking through the night sky.
The pair of giant hammers in his hands carried boundless power and smashed directly at the mirage beast.
