Chapter 831 Return to Immortal Burial Valley
The ultimate secret of the Yandao Sect is the Yantian Formation within the sect, which can use clues to deduce the infinite changes between heaven and earth, explore the secrets of the sky, and predict the future.
Huang Tiancheng made this choice because he calculated that if he didn't take action, Yan Dao Sect would be destroyed.
They don't have a treasure like the Thousand Machine Formation to defend against foreign enemies.
Even the Blood Refining Sect can easily destroy him.
Similarly, he also calculated the future of the Thousand Machines Formation. This formation would be completely destroyed in the near future, thus indirectly calculating the time for the arrival of the spiritual monks.
People in the mortal world cannot do anything about the Thousand Machines Formation, only monks in the spiritual world can do it.
This is fate, unchangeable fate.
…………
Shenpuppet Sect, the main hall of the sect.
As the last place on the Chinese planet that was not occupied, the main hall was quiet, with hundreds of figures sitting cross-legged.
They are both male and female, with high and low cultivation levels, core elders and outer disciples, geniuses and mediocre people.
Regardless of elders or disciples, those sitting in the hall at this moment are, without exception, the absolute core of the Shenpuppet Sect!
Everyone has experienced life and death battles and killed countless enemies. Their characteristics have been recorded by the sect master, and there is no spy.
Others died or fled, and the only ones left were these number 128.
"The spiritual energy of the sect is decreasing."
After a long period of silence, a gentle voice sounded in the hall.
Everyone looked up and saw Taoist Que sitting cross-legged in the center, eyes closed, and said calmly: "In less than three years, the spiritual energy here will be completely exhausted, and cultivation will no longer be possible. The consumed real energy cannot be replenished. Can rely on spiritual stones.”
"But there are not many spiritual stones left in the sect, and they can only last for ten years at most."
Taoist Que opened his eyes, looked at the monks present, glanced at everyone, and said calmly: "You can choose to leave, I will not stop you."
He didn't know how many times he had said this.
He allows anyone to leave and pursue their own future instead of staying and waiting to die.
Every time I say it, someone will choose to leave.
But this time, no one made any move.
"If you wanted to leave, I would have left long ago." The ancestor of the sect said calmly.
"The people who are still left have already put their lives at risk. I'm afraid no one will leave." Another white-haired old man said.
"Death is inevitable in life, and dying in a sect is considered a fallen leaf returning to its roots." A middle-aged Confucian scholar said.
"When I was a teenager, I experienced the hatred of my country and my family. At that time, I was bent on death. What am I afraid of now?" said a young monk with dark skin.
"If you can't hold on any longer, I will control the Thousand Machine Formation." The sect's great elder said.
Listening to everyone's words, Taoist Que stopped persuading.
Once upon a time, when the five great immortals were born and the Chinese star was at its peak, who dared to offend them? Even people from the spirit world would not dare to face five Poxu at the same time.
But now...
How glorious it was back then, how miserable it is now.
After a long time, Taoist Que said in a calm tone: "When the last spiritual stone is exhausted, I will detonate the Thousand Machine Formation. Even if I die, I will die on the Shenzhou Planet!"
"Our cultivation collapsed on our mother planet, and all the rivers returned to the sea. One day, time will speak for us."
…………
Dark Star, Immortal Burial Valley.
Xu Hei and three others have returned from the extreme south and arrived outside the Immortal Burial Valley.
"I didn't expect that I would get nothing from this trip." Xu Hei shook his head and sighed.
The lair of the Thousand-Eyed King was not difficult to find. It only took them three days to find the place where the Thousand-Eyed King retreated in a hidden space.
But apart from the somewhat unstable flow of time, nothing of value was found inside.
Returning empty-handed is not Xu Hei's style.
So, he dug up some stones and took them away. These stones were contaminated with some of the demonic energy generated during the Thousand-Eyed King's cultivation, which was better than nothing.
"Before a great monk dies, he will try his best to leave relics so that his inheritance will not be extinguished. But if it is an external demon, it is hard to say."
Xu Hei thought about it carefully and found it reasonable.
The external demon doesn't care if the Thousand-Eyed King's inheritance is cut off. The external demon is born for destruction. The Thousand-Eyed King's self-awareness is long dead.
In this way, it makes sense to return empty-handed.
Next, they could only rush to the next stop, Immortal Burial Valley, without stopping.
After some discussion, the three of them got ready and set off into the valley.
…………
In the Immortal Burial Valley, there are thick clouds and mist, the light is dim, the road is rugged, and the cold wind howls from time to time, sending chills down one's back.
Here, the line of sight and consciousness are greatly hindered, and there are many space cracks in the air.
Since the last change in the valley, there have been more space cracks.
The cracks in space represent that the strength has reached the critical point of breaking the void, but with Xu Hei's body, even if he is hit by the cracks, he will only suffer some skin injuries.
As long as you don't rush in headlong into it, your life will not be in danger.
"I'll open the way in front, you just need to follow me."
Xu Hei took the lead and walked at the front.
With Xu Hei opening the way, the safety factor was greatly increased. The two people behind followed closely and moved forward.
Following the route in his memory, Xu Hei soon arrived at the last restricted location.
With Xu Hei's strength, he could smash this restriction with one punch, but to be on the safe side, Xu Hei still took out the formation flag of the Flame Demon Ancestor.
After the death of the Flame Demon Ancestor, his relics naturally belonged to Xu Hei.
"Buzz!"
Under the infusion of spiritual energy, the restriction was broken in an instant.
"Keep going!"
Xu Hei jumped in, and the other two also rushed in.
With the experience of the last time, Xu Hei was familiar with the road and arrived at the previous cave residence at a very fast speed.
The inheritance of Lianhua Zhenjun and the clan leader's seal were found here.
However, the former cave residence has collapsed, leaving only a deep corridor, and no one knows where it leads.
"Is this where you found the ancient corpse?" Hai Teng frowned.
Xu Hei nodded, and suddenly thought of the warning of the ancient monk, asking them to never come here.
To this day, that trace of remnant still remains here, resisting outsiders from approaching.
In the rocks on both sides, there are sometimes residual echoes, like the whispers of ancient monks, and two words are vaguely heard: leave.
"There are too many suspicious points here. The ancient monks warned us not to come here. King Ye said that we have to stay here for ten years before we have a chance to leave Dark Star."
"How did those people become corpses and attack others unconsciously?"
"How did so many space cracks come into being?"
"Why do foreign demons enter the body one after another?"
"Lord Lianhua, what's going on?"
Xu Hei stared at the dark and deep corridor, and his confusion became more and more. It seemed that only by walking in could he find the answer.
Xu Hei took a deep breath, took a big step, and walked towards the corridor.
And at this moment, Hai Teng suddenly shouted sternly.
"Xu Hei, I have a hunch that it is very dangerous in there. Don't go in easily!"
Hai Teng stared at the corridor, his expression more serious than ever before.
