Chapter 1970 The Truth About the Black Mountain Territory

Liang Yan glanced at the sinking puppet fragments, but his expression did not change at all.

The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit! The road to immortality has been like this since ancient times. Only those who survive are qualified to climb up. If the person who loses one day is himself, I am afraid it will not end better than these people.

"let's go."

Liang Yan said, taking Wu Xin's hand and swimming towards the water together.

Escape techniques cannot be used here. Fortunately, his physical strength is strong enough and he is not afraid of the undercurrent of Luoshui and can move very fast.

After spending about two hours, the two finally surfaced.

Looking around, I saw a calm lake, and the two of them were located in the center of the lake.

Looking at the shore again, it was completely shrouded in darkness. The spiritual consciousness could not spread too far here, so that the scene on the shore could not be seen clearly, but a vague figure could be seen standing there.

"Is there anyone on the shore?" Wuxin frowned.

"It's hard to say what it is. Let's be careful."

Liang Yan said, raised his hand to create a magic spell, and used the Tianji Pearl to hide his aura.

Wu Xin also cast a spell to hide his aura.

The two of them got ready, concentrated, and slowly approached the shore.

Not long after, the two finally came out of Luoshui and walked to the shore, stepping on the solid soil with their feet.

But the scene in front of them made them take a breath of cold air.

There is actually a huge army here!

Looking around, thousands of puppet soldiers were standing on the shore, holding swords, guns, swords, halberds and other weapons, with serious faces and murderous intent.

These soldiers were exactly the same as the puppets that attacked them at the bottom of the lake before, but the weapons they held were slightly different. Thousands of puppets formed a military formation, and the murderous aura soared into the sky. Even Wu Xin's cultivation felt suffocating!

For a moment, both of them were extremely nervous.

But soon, they discovered that these puppets were just standing there. Although they were full of murderous intent, they showed no signs of taking action. Even these murderous intents did not target anyone.

After observing on the spot for a moment, Liang Yan finally relaxed.

It seems that these puppets have lost the ability to move, which is a blessing among misfortunes, otherwise both of them will be in danger!

You must know that although these puppets are not powerful individually, they have a unique momentum. When connected together, they can multiply their attack and defense capabilities.

Previously, Liang Yan could kill more than a dozen puppets with one sword; but if there were hundreds of puppets, it would be more troublesome for him to deal with them.

There are five thousand puppets here! If all could move, it would be a terrifying force

"Where is this place? Why are there so many weird puppets!" Wu Xin's eyes showed surprise.

"Look at them, they seem to be soldiers guarding this place, preventing outsiders from passing through." Liang Yan said thoughtfully.

After his reminder, Wu Xin also discovered it.

Although these puppets were full of murderous intent, they did not assume an active offensive formation, but adopted a defensive posture.

More than 5,000 soldiers lined up behind each other like checkpoints, preventing anyone from passing through.

"It seems that the place we are looking for is behind here. Demon Lord Qingyun has probably passed by. The reason why these puppets have lost their ability to move is probably because of him."

"Yes, the secret here will be revealed soon."

Liang Yan said and walked into the military formation without hesitation.

Sure enough, the puppet soldiers here just stood there and did not attack him as the intruder.

The two of them walked forward and soon saw a high platform appearing in front of them.

The high platform was made entirely of white jade, with a huge stone wall behind it and a statue standing in the middle.

This statue is of a woman, beautiful and heroic!

She wears a crown of nine dragons on her head, her moon-white robe is embroidered with golden auspicious clouds, and there are white birds facing phoenixes at the corners of her skirt. Her eyebrows are resolute and have clear lines, like the outline of distant mountains, as white as jade, and she is graceful, noble and majestic. Hehe!

Although it is just an ordinary statue, it gives people a feeling that they dare not approach it or desecrate it.

This invisible sense of oppression made Liang Yan frown slightly.

Looking at the front of the woman's statue, there are eight more statues, but these eight statues are all kneeling on the ground, as if they are her slaves.

"Have you ever felt that those eight statues are so familiar? The huge statue has almost the same physical characteristics as the giant spirit clan, and the tall man with short arms, doesn't he look like a monk from the fantasy clan?" Wu Xin asked in surprise. .

"Um."

Liang Yan nodded.

He had carefully observed that these eight statues corresponded to the eight major clans of gods in the Black Mountain Territory.

"Is she the ancestor of the eight tribes? They all kneel down and worship here. Who is that woman?"

Liang Yan was confused and used his spiritual consciousness to check the surroundings. After confirming that there were no restrictions, he slowly climbed onto the high platform.

I saw a jade wall behind the luxurious woman. Various patterns were carved on the wall. These patterns were vivid and constantly evolving, and contained a lot of information.

It's like a book, waiting to be read.

Liang Yan glanced around and saw four lines of ancient seal characters engraved with golden light in the middle of the high wall, which was exactly:

"The phoenix in brocade and white robes rides in the sky, walking majestically on the snow to bind the blue dragon, the jade bottle gives birth to mysterious seeds, Kunwu shoots down the nine-fold cloud!"

Seeing this poem, Liang Yan was startled and vaguely thought of a person.

"Yuping, Kunwu. Could it be her?"

This guess made Liang Yan's heart beat faster and his face became serious.

He immediately threw his consciousness into the jade wall. As the patterns on the wall continued to change, countless pictures entered Liang Yan's sea of ​​consciousness.

An ancient secret unfolded before his eyes.

I don't know how long it took, maybe it was only a moment in reality, Liang Yan came back to his senses and sighed quietly.

"I see."

He finally knew the origin of the Black Mountain Domain and what kind of place it was.

It turns out that when the Nine Saints slaughtered the immortals, although Queen Mother Xi died, her body was not destroyed. Many people in the old Xianting tribe were loyal to the Queen Mother of the West, so they set up a tomb for her in the Black Mountain area, built this tomb, and placed her remains in it.

The battle that year was extremely tragic. Although the Nine Saints won the battle, it was also a tragic victory. Half of them died directly in the battle, and the lives of the remaining few were hanging by a thread, so they acquiesced to this behavior.

Among these old tribes of the Immortal Court, there are eight sub-sages with the highest cultivation level, who have sworn to guard the tomb of the Queen Mother of the West. These eight people are the ancestors of the eight major divine tribes.

They made a clan rule that future generations, as tomb keepers, could never leave the Black Mountain Territory, and this was true for generations to come. In order to achieve this goal, they even set up taboos in their own bloodline. Anyone who wants to leave the Black Mountain Territory will lose their mind and become a walking zombie.

This is why Liang Yan encountered so many walking corpses outside the Black Mountain Territory. They were monks from the Black Mountain Territory who were unwilling to be trapped here and wanted to seek a way out from the outside world.

"I didn't expect that these so-called 'foreign races' in the Black Mountain Region are actually the descendants of the old Xianting tribe."

Wu Xin also read the content on the wall, with a look of emotion on his face: "I have always found it strange that although their spells are weird, their essential cultivation methods are the same as those of the human race. Now I finally understand that these should be Spells circulated in ancient times. The world of cultivation has experienced hundreds of thousands of years of evolution, and a hundred flowers have blossomed in the outside world. However, due to resource constraints, the monks in the Black Mountain Region can only use the set of spells from the ancient times, so they have conflicts with the monks from the outside world. Differences, they are called 'foreigners'."

"good."

Liang Yan nodded. His thoughts were the same as Wu Xin's. After seeing the contents on these walls, he finally understood the truth about the Black Mountain Domain.

Wuxin was full of emotions, thought for a while and then said: "I didn't expect that there would be such heartfelt subordinates in the Immortal Court. The Queen Mother of the West ruled the entire Black Mountain Territory back then. Although she was rebellious and cruel, she also had her personal charm. These eight sub-sages Those who are willing to be trapped in the Black Mountain Territory are obviously her loyal followers."

Liang Yan smiled slightly: "The surrender to power has existed since ancient times, and the world of cultivation is no exception. At that time, the Immortal Court swept across the continent and was at its peak. How could there be seven mountains and twelve cities? All of these were given by the Queen Mother of the West, so They adored her."

Having said this, he paused for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said: "But there is one thing you said wrong."

"oh?"

Wu Xin looked surprised and asked, "What did I say wrong?"

"Not all of these eight people are her loyal followers. One of them has a different intention." Liang Yan said slowly.

After Wu Xin listened, he suddenly understood.

"You mean the ancestors of the Wu clan?"

"good!"

Both of them looked at one of the eight statues.

This is a handsome man with eyebrows like swords and sharp eyes. He kneels on one knee in front of the Queen Mother of the West, looking extremely respectful.

"If I guessed correctly, the ancestor of the Wu clan was not willing to stay in the Black Mountain Territory, or in other words, he had other plans for this place. When he and seven other people built this tomb, I was afraid that this person was secretly I did some tricks to make it easier for me to enter this tomb in the future."

"But I guess he didn't succeed. Later, when his deadline was approaching, he could only place his wish on his descendants. Therefore, among the eight inherited secret treasures, only the Wu Clan's 'Tian Wu Bell' is the most special. He must The key method to open the tomb is left inside, and I hope that my descendants can enter the tomb with the 'Tian Wu Bell', get the opportunities inside, and successfully escape from the Black Mountain Territory."

After listening to Liang Yan's analysis, Wu Xin nodded slightly.

"You are right. Although such secrets cannot be investigated, this is the most realistic inference. If there were no traitors among the eight people, how could the tomb of the Queen Mother of the West be seen again? Not to mention, the contents inside The defensive restrictions are so powerful, not to mention Demon Lord Qingyun, it is impossible for monks under the saint to break through, and only those who know the details can use tricks to get through."

"Haha, that's good." Liang Yan said with a smile: "On the way along, many defensive restrictions have failed. Even the puppet soldiers guarding the tomb cannot move. This must be the masterpiece of Demon Lord Qingyun and Wu Changqing. Yes. The two of them can clear the way in front and save us a lot of trouble."

Wuxin nodded and said: "But we can't take it lightly. A lion fights a rabbit with all his strength. Even though you have made great progress now, there is no guarantee that this thief still has any trump cards."

"Um."

Of course Liang Yan knew this.

Although he looked calm, he was very excited inside.

When he found out that this was the tomb of Queen Mother of the West, he knew that his visit was not in vain.

"God is really helping me!"

A light flashed in Liang Yan's eyes.

Back when he was in Huntian Ridge, Ning Bugui taught Liang Yan the "Secret Technique of Nothingness" and stated that there were two harsh conditions:

First, you cannot use living people to perform the spell, otherwise even if you successfully capture the physique, your soul will collapse due to the remaining consciousness of the other party. But it cannot be dead for too long. It must be the kind of person who has just died. The soul and true spirit are about to disperse, and the caster must complete the spell within half a quarter of an hour.

Second, it is necessary to draw on the holy energy of the saint.

Originally, Liang Yan planned to capture Demon Lord Qingyun alive here, imprison him in the Taixu Gourd, and wait until he gets a ray of holy energy before he can use his secret technique.

Unexpectedly, the place where Demon Lord Qingyun came was actually the tomb of the Queen Mother of the West. Back then, the Queen Mother of the West was the most powerful in the Antarctic Immortal Continent. Although her magic power dissipated after her death, there might still be some holy energy left in her body.

As long as there is a trace of holy energy, Liang Yan can use it to perform the secret technique of nothingness.

There is no doubt that Qingyun Demon Lord has spent all his efforts to get here, and he must be heading to the tomb of the Queen Mother of the West. If he can be killed there, he can immediately use the "Secret Technique of Nothingness" to seize his Taotie Demonic Body. !

"Qingyun, Qingyun, you really chose a good place!"

Liang Yan's eyes flashed, and he quickly suppressed the excitement in his heart and gradually calmed down.

Wuxin is right, Qingyun may have a trump card. Even if his strength increases greatly, he cannot take it lightly. He must identify the opportunity and give this person a killing blow!

Thinking of this, Liang Yan smiled slightly.

"Let's go."

The two walked off the high platform and continued on the dark road.

Sure enough, many destroyed restrictions were discovered along the way. These defensive restrictions were very mysterious. They were obviously arranged by the eight sub-sanctuaries back then. However, because there were traitors among them, the weaknesses of these restrictions were exposed to Qingyun. Demon Lord.

In some of these places, Liang Yan found traces left by the "Tian Wu Ling" cast. It seemed that the interval was not long.

Obviously, it took a lot of time for Demon Lord Qingyun and others to break the restriction, and they were not much faster than Liang Yan when they got here.

"Liang Yan, look there!"

After walking forward in the darkness for half an hour, Wu Xin suddenly spoke.

Looking in the direction she pointed, a huge palace was suspended in the air, with glazed tiles on the top, golden clouds on all sides as windows, and colorful auspicious clouds around it. The sound of silk and bamboo fairy music could be faintly heard. Angry and majestic!

"There is no road here anymore. The palace floating above should be the tomb of the Queen Mother of the West!" Liang Yan said solemnly.
