Chapter 405: Death Is Inevitable!

When Wu Cheng crossed the Black Mountain, the originally quiet Black Mountain Range seemed to suddenly come alive.

Even if it was limited to the outer periphery of the Black Mountain, there were still terrifying auras rising up, and countless terrifying giant pupils opened from the darkness, and the sights that seemed to be real shot from bottom to top to the sky.

But when those sights came into contact with Wu Cheng's figure, they quickly retracted and were retracted as soon as they touched. Wu Cheng did not seem to be surprised by this result, so he did not respond to the owners of those sights.

So, he swaggered through the Black Mountain Range and headed northwest.

…

Xu Dao woke up and immediately became alert. The domineering ruins actually forced him to fall asleep.

However, when he opened his eyes, what he saw surprised him.

"What the hell is this place?"

Xu Dao was shocked. He was sitting cross-legged on a stone platform. The stone platform was not big, just enough for him to sit cross-legged, and there was a mirror-like water surface around the stone platform.

Looking around, there was still an endless water surface, extending to the far distance, and there was no end in sight. The top of the head was even more gray, giving people a great sense of oppression.

Xu Dao reached out and touched the mirror-like water surface, and then a circle of ripples spread out. It really looks like water, but it is not water, and there is no touch of water, or it seems real but not real, like an illusion but not an illusion.

"Is this the ruins?" Xu Dao was a little confused. No one told him that the ruins looked like this? There is nothing here, let alone life, even dead things in other places are gone!

The ruins he imagined should be the things left after the overthrow of a great power in ancient times, mountain gates, buildings, palaces...but there is nothing here!

Before coming in, he saw nothing of the scene from the pillar of light that reached the sky, and now he had nothing to do with it.

However, no matter what, it was not possible to stay here all the time. He had to act as soon as possible. What if there were secrets here that he had not discovered?

But when he wanted to get up, he was surprised to find that he could not get up at all. He looked down and saw several chains appearing from a transparent state, wrapping him tightly and fixing him on this small stone platform.

Xu Dao was horrified, and his blood and magic power burst out at the same time. He was afraid that he had been hit when he just came in, but he did not struggle just now so he did not notice it.

Sure enough, every time he exerted force, the chain appeared from a transparent state, and when he stopped, the chain gradually disappeared.

The chain seemed thin and had no substance, but it was actually very hard. No matter how hard he tried, the chain did not move at all and could not be broken free at all.

Xu Dao's heart sank. He had never encountered such a situation before. He kept trying, but unfortunately, he tried all the methods he could, but to no avail.

"Emperor's daughter..."

Xu Dao subconsciously wanted to ask the Emperor's daughter for help. Although the Emperor's daughter might not be too strong, she might know this situation. But when he touched his waist, he found that the Mountain God Seal on his waist had disappeared.

Is he trapped? But Xu Dao didn't want to give up. His mind sank into the Niwan Palace, trying to think of a way. He knew that even if his other methods were useless, the bronze giant tree must be able to break the situation.

But he soon found that no matter how he communicated, he couldn't mobilize the power of the bronze giant tree, and his escape magic lost its effect.

Now, he was really sure that he was really trapped!

"Is there anyone?" Xu Dao shouted. There must be a reason why he was trapped here like this? Could there be a living being in this ruin?

But there was no response!

Xu Dao began to think about what would happen if he was trapped here and could never break free.

He couldn't do a complete fasting now, at least he couldn't do it for several years or decades without food or drink. At present, he could only ensure that he would not die for several months by relying on his own physique and absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

If he wanted to avoid starvation, he needed to be promoted to the fifth stage of Qi Refining - the Fasting Stage in these few months!

But this was impossible. Even if he was gifted enough, he couldn't achieve this goal. If there were a large number of monsters here, that would be another matter. But here, let alone monsters, not even a mosquito could be seen.

According to the normal speed of cultivation, it always takes decades or even hundreds of years to cultivate from the fourth stage to the fifth stage. Even if Xu Dao had the ultimate ability of guiding and taking food, and the speed of cultivation was extremely fast, he couldn't shorten this time to months.

If this is the case, wouldn't he be dead for sure?

Or wait for the people behind to rescue him?

But... he hadn't seen Nangong Nei and the others until now. If he guessed correctly, they would not appear in the same place after entering the ruins. This was probably the worst estimate.

As Xu Dao thought about it, his mood calmed down, because anxiety and restlessness could not save him, so he might as well calm down. Only in this way could he have a chance!

He forced himself not to think about these questions, forcibly cut off the distracting thoughts in his mind, and began to meditate and refine Qi. This place was not a completely desperate situation. At least there was still spiritual energy from heaven and earth, and the concentration of spiritual energy from heaven and earth was not low.

Although it was difficult to achieve the state of fasting within a few months by relying on one's own practice, one could not not do it just because one knew it could not be done.

A stream of spiritual energy from heaven and earth was drawn from all directions, flowing into Xu Dao's body from his limbs. After all the meridians were connected, Xu Dao's mana transfer changed from the small Zhoutian to the big Zhoutian, and his meridians were greatly widened and tempered, and his cultivation speed was more than several times faster than before.

The more Xu Dao practiced, the calmer his heart became. It was impossible for him to give up. Even if there was little hope, or even no hope, he would not accept his fate!

If he really accepted his fate and was really willing to be ordinary, he should choose to continue to stay in Yanghe County and be a doctor in a small clinic. In that case, he would probably live happily for the rest of his life.

However, in that case, his mother and younger sister would probably die early because of the revival of the Black Mountain Seal. Although he did not have to fear the Black Mountain Seal, he was limited by the environment of Yanghe County and probably would not have achieved much, even if he had the bronze giant tree.

Possessing a treasure mountain and using a treasure mountain are two concepts. A person who is willing to be ordinary, even if you give him the opportunity to surpass the bronze giant tree, his life achievement is destined not to be too high.

Xu Dao, who had almost never thought about these things, began to think over and over again about these things that he had never seriously thought about when he was in a desperate situation.
