Chapter 146 Space Channel, Evil Demon
On the road to the Wanzong Qianlong Competition, she had just taken a step last time and her immortal bone was broken, almost ruining her immortal path.
She had to cross this hurdle by herself.
"The road is under your feet. You decide how to go. If you have any trouble, remember to send a message."
Hearing Song Lingqing's plan, Chu Zheng turned around and left without saying much.
For a Qi cultivator, all good fortune and disasters come from people.
Good fortune and disaster have no door, but people call them. He never interferes too much with other people's thoughts and lets things take their course.
Looking at Chu Zheng's leaving back, Song Lingqing was only grateful in her heart, but she said thank you in a pale and powerless way too many times, and now she couldn't say it out loud.
In the blood pool, she completed the transformation and became a genuine top-grade immortal bone. At that moment, she seemed to have been reborn.
Now, even if she only needs to put in one-tenth or one-twelfth of the effort before, she can have a cultivation speed that she couldn't achieve before.
Top-grade immortal bones are a threshold. If middle-grade immortal bones can never become immortals in this life, top-grade immortal bones have the opportunity to enter the immortal gate.
And this opportunity was also given by Chu Zheng.
…………

Entering the Daotai Secret Realm, Chu Zheng's speed of travel was undoubtedly much faster. He was able to exert some of his true power of flying in the clouds and mist. He moved like the wind and was already a hundred miles away in three or two steps.
Without considering his own losses, he crossed millions of miles in just a few days and entered the Juze territory.
He did not go directly to the Song family, but stayed at the border of Juze for a while.
Above the ten thousand feet of void, Chu Zheng opened his spiritual eyes and scanned the surroundings.
There was an extremely strange breath in the void, which was not like spiritual power, and it made people feel a little repulsive.
Here, there was a space channel leading to a foreign land, which was blocked by a true immortal. At that time, he just passed by by chance and found some abnormalities in the Yuanqi of heaven and earth, and then he discovered the situation of this seal.
Soon, with the help of the spiritual eye, Chu Zheng directly saw a crack in the void.
After opening the spiritual eye, Chu Zheng felt the horror of this crack.
It stretched for nearly 100,000 miles, as if it had torn open the entire sky, and was blocked by runes with dim fairy light. Behind the crack, there was chaos.
[Fairy Mark·Sealing the Realm (Level 8/Incomplete): An extremely powerful fairy mark that blocked the space. It was created by a true fairy. After a long time, it has been slightly worn out. It lacks materials and cannot be repaired (details)]
[Details: It is extremely difficult to repair the fairy mark. It requires at least the cultivation of a nine-tribulation true fairy. Currently, there are missing materials: fairy crystals and broken jade. According to the current degree of wear and tear, without external interference, the seal can only last for a thousand years at most. 】
[Space channel (eighth level): The space channel leading to the outside world is blocked by a powerful seal. After a long time, the seal has been damaged (details)]
[Details: There is evil infiltration in the space channel, which is likely to connect to the evil demon world. It is expected that after four hundred years, the evil will begin to pollute the Cangyun world and turn living beings into demons. 】
"Evil demon world..."
Looking at the more detailed information given by the panel, Chu Zheng frowned for a while.
The last time he saw Ji Yuyan in the Xianwu battlefield, he originally thought that the Xianmeng had already arrived in Cangyun, and the seal of Juze was worn out, which should have been known.
Now it seems that the situation is different from what he imagined. The Xianmeng may not know about the current situation of the seal of Juze.
Chu Zheng pondered for a while and did not stay too long. He wanted to deal with the Song family's affairs as soon as possible, return to Taixuan Holy Land, inform Geng Yiyang of the matter, and ask him to report to the Xianmeng to deal with the matter.
Although there are still a thousand years, there is no guarantee that something unexpected will happen during this period.
Moreover, judging from the information in the space channel, the so-called evil spirit will begin to affect the creatures of the Cangyun Realm in four hundred years.
He will have to learn more about the so-called evil spirit after he returns.
…………
…………
After a while, Chu Zheng arrived at Yanchi Island.
During this period of time, the Juze Song family has become less powerful than before.
Since the day when the Song family from the East Region came, Song Tongxuan has been gradually shrinking his own industry, preparing to wait for the news from the master family and move the family at any time.
After learning that he is a descendant of the True Immortal, the Song family has been somewhat excited these days.
Chu Zheng landed in front of the main gate and handed over a visiting card.
Although his current cultivation is no longer the same as before, the proper etiquette is still indispensable.
Soon, Song Tongxuan brought Song Tonghai to the outside of the mansion gate.
"Greetings, Holy Son of Taixuan."
Song Tongxuan clasped his fists and bowed: "I didn't recognize you before, please forgive me, Holy Son."
Chu Zheng dodged the greeting and shook his head:
"You are Lingxue's uncle, and naturally my elder, so you don't have to do this."
After saying that, he looked at Song Tonghai and bowed: "Father-in-law."
Last time he came, he concealed his identity, but today he didn't have to do so.
Song Tongxuan was startled, and he tilted his head to look at Song Tonghai, his eyes flickered, and he felt a little disappointed for a moment.
From Chu Zheng's words, it was not difficult to hear some information. Song Tonghai had never told him the truth before.
"Don't blame me, brother. The situation was different at that time. Chu Zheng's bounty was everywhere. I couldn't risk his safety."
Song Tonghai shook his head, without any guilt in his expression. If it happened again, he would still choose to conceal Chu Zheng's true identity.
"I know what you mean." Song Tongxuan said nothing more, turned around and looked at Chu Zheng, raised his hand and gestured: "Please come in and talk, Holy Son."
Several people walked into the front hall, and after sitting down, Song Tongxuan couldn't help but ask:
"Excuse me, Holy Son, have you taken anything from my Song family's treasury?"
"You have this question, I guess the Song family of the East Region has been here."
Chu Zheng's eyes froze slightly. He had expected this. This place is not far from the Great Zhou. Since the Song family of the East Region can find the Great Zhou, it is reasonable to find this place.
"That's right." Song Tongxuan nodded and said: "Last year, the main branch of the Song family came here once to find a piece of broken jade. Originally, this broken jade seemed to be in the treasury..."
He looked at Chu Zheng, but didn't finish his words.
"I took it away."
Hearing Chu Zheng's answer, Song Tongxuan's eyes lit up slightly, and he said with some trepidation:
"May I ask the Holy Son, can this thing be returned? At that time, the person who came from the main family said in person that if this piece of broken jade could be found, the status of Lingfeng and Lingping in the Song family would change significantly, and the path of cultivation would also benefit from it, and they would get strong support from the main vein..."
Juze is still a long way from Taixuan Holy Land. In addition, the various holy lands have now recalled their disciples outside, and there are no major forces stationed in Juze now, so the news spreads very slowly.
The news that the Song family in the East Region bowed their heads has not yet reached this place.
Song Tongxuan only has a vague understanding of the situation in the outside world. He is not even very clear about what happened in the Xianwu battlefield. Now his impression of Chu Zheng still remains in the period when he was rewarded by the major holy lands.
"Do you know what the purpose of this broken jade is?" Chu Zheng was slightly surprised. He did not expect that the Song family in the East Region had not even told Song Tongxuan about the secret realm.
"I don't know." Song Tongxuan was a little confused.
Chu Zheng immediately spoke up and simply explained the blood jade fragments and the inheritance secret realm.
He did not hide anything, including the current situation of the Song family in the East Region, and told the truth.
That piece of fragment, in the final analysis, was something passed down to Song Tongxuan by the Song family. The Song Tonghai lineage can only be regarded as a branch of the side line.
Regardless of the reason, taking it without telling is stealing. The inheritance secret realm should have a share for Song Tongxuan.
After a long time, Song Tongxuan digested this information, and his expression gradually became complicated.
The people of the Song family in the East Region did not tell him about the inheritance secret realm last time, and perhaps they did not intend to share the inheritance secret realm with the Song family in the South Region.
"Now, you have two ways to go, either join the Song family in the East Region, or follow me back to Taixuan City."
Chu Zheng sat quietly, waiting for Song Tongxuan's answer.
He had no idea what Song Tongxuan would choose. Although the Song family in the East Region had declined, it was still a family of true immortals. There were countless powerful people above the Divine Infant Realm in the family. Even if it was not as good as the five great holy places in the South Region, it was not far behind.
All he could do was to put all the current information on the table and let Song Tongxuan choose for himself.
Song Tongxuan did not think for too long and quickly made a decision with a solemn face:
"Thank you for your reminder, Saint Son. I will immediately send a message to Lingfeng Lingping, pack up some things, and move the whole family to Taixuan City."
Song Tongxuan was able to build such a large family business in Juze and travel between the immortal gates with a mortal body. He relied on more than just his descendants with immortal bones.
Judging the situation is a basic quality that a qualified family head should have.
Even though Taixuan now does not seem to have much advantage compared to the Song family in the East Region, Song Tongxuan still chose this path.
It was because Chu Zheng was too young, and he opened the secret realm of inheritance on his own, and did what no true immortal family could do. It was almost clear how to choose.
After hearing Song Tongxuan's answer, Song Tonghai, who was worried, could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. After all, they were brothers from the same mother, and he did not want to have a bad relationship with Song Tongxuan.
"How long will it take to clean up completely?" Chu Zheng asked, looking at the sunset outside.
After thinking for a moment, Song Tongxuan said in a deep voice: "Three days will be enough."
"Then set off in three days."
After setting the date for migration, Chu Zheng immediately stood up and walked out the door.
He didn't know if he would come to Juze again in the future, so he might as well take advantage of the fact that he had cultivated his divine consciousness and spiritual eyes to discover the ancient debris that had been buried deep in the water for tens of thousands of years.
For him now, this didn't require much effort at all.
The only thing to watch out for is the water monsters hiding under the river. It is said that some of them have even reached the fourth level, which is enough to rival the mighty ones in the Divine Infant Realm.
After leaving the Song Mansion, Chu Zheng plunged directly into the turbulent river and began to search for some ancient sites along the river.
Under the dim water, it was silent. By sensing the concentration of the vital energy of living beings, Chu Zheng avoided several great monsters in the Divine Infant Realm from a distance.
The powerful water monsters were basically sleeping. Without being disturbed, it was difficult for them to wake up, and they did not affect Chu Zheng.
However, the riverbed along the way had obviously been excavated and explored many times, and the traces left were very new, obviously having just been cleaned not long ago.
…………
…………
It took Chu Zheng three days to roughly visit the riverbed of the entire Juze, and the harvest was not satisfactory.
At the beginning, because of the bounty offered by several major holy places, countless cultivators turned the Juze upside down.
In the past few days, the most precious things Chu Zheng found were some fifth- and sixth-level magic weapon fragments. As for the ruins of the sects, even the floor tiles had been removed, like autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves, extremely clean.
Calculating the time, Chu Zheng did not care about regrets and immediately returned to Yanchi Island.
The Song family had packed up and even bought a small flying boat for migration.
Fortunately, the Song family had only been here for a few decades and had not taken root. There were not many people, most of whom were hired worshippers. They could be dismissed directly after being given some spiritual stones.
There were only a few dozen people on the flying boat, most of whom were confidants who had followed Song Tongxuan for decades. It was difficult to leave them behind, so they had to be taken away.
With the Song family, Chu Zheng's speed slowed down a lot. After more than half a month, Chu Zheng brought the group to Taixuan City.
After settling Song Tongxuan's family, he took Song Tonghai back to Taixuan Holy Land and met Song Lingxue and Song Lingqing.
Since the day Song Lingqing returned home, the three of them had never reunited at the same time. Seeing each other again at this time, it was inevitable that they felt a lot of emotion.
Until he saw Song Lingqing in person, Song Tonghai's eyes were slightly red. The surprise of regaining the treasure was indescribable.
Chu Zheng did not disturb the reunion of father and daughter, and turned around and went straight to Geng Yiyang's retreat.
"What's the matter?"
Seeing Chu Zheng, Geng Yiyang subconsciously frowned, feeling a little bad.
If Chu Zheng did not take action, it would be amazing. Many times, he felt a little terrified about Chu Zheng's ability to cause trouble.
"Does the Saint know about the space channel above the giant ze?"
Chu Zheng's first sentence startled Geng Yiyang, and his face changed slightly for a moment: "How do you know that there is a space channel above the giant ze?"
This matter, among the several major holy places now, I am afraid that even the Saint Lord may not know.
The reason why he stopped Chu Zheng in the giant ze at that time was to take a look at the seal.
Hearing Geng Yiyang's question, Chu Zheng's heart moved slightly. He did not mention the seal, but said with reservation:
"When I returned to Juze, I felt that the spiritual power in the void was different, so I observed carefully for a while and found the space channel."
"When I first heard about this space channel, I had not yet entered the Tao."
Geng Yiyang was silent for a while, and said slowly: "That is the passage to the land of foreign evil demons."
"In order to seal this passage, an immortal died in a foreign land, and no less than ten true immortals died. The entrance at the other end of the passage has been suppressed by the immortal with his bones, and the exit at the end of Juze was sealed by a nine-tribulation true immortal."
"This seal is just a superficial appearance, just to block the evil spirits that are overflowing."
"What is a foreign evil demon?" Chu Zheng's eyes condensed slightly.
"A kind of creature that was born to kill all living things in the world."
