Chapter 1275: Going deep into the canyon
"This is indeed an important issue worthy of consideration."
Lei Xiao stopped in front of the strange canyon filled with violent atmosphere. While instructing Xiaojie to activate the silent barrier, he asked: "Two old presidents, what do you think of this?"
"Back to Your Majesty, I think there are two possibilities."
The gray old man stroked his chest and saluted, and responded: "The first point is because the other party cannot enter the Upside Down Canyon in person for some reason. The second point is because the other party may know something strange in the Upside Down Canyon. For the sake of safety, we are here. Let’s go into the exploration first.”
“Let’s put aside the first point for now. Is the second point for us to act as pathfinders?”
Yoniel's old eyes narrowed slightly, and he gently stroked his gray beard and said: "But I really can't figure out why Miyin Market has so many connections, so he went to all the trouble to choose the human race as the pathfinder."
"Yes, compared to other powerful forces, our current strength is indeed extremely limited."
Louise obviously did not choose her words as carefully as the two old presidents, and directly stated the fact that our side was weak, and echoed: "The strength shown by the other party alone is far greater than ours, then the manager One person is enough to crush us, so even using us as bait is not enough.”
"That's right, so the second possibility can almost be ruled out. If there really is something in the Upside Down Canyon that even the other party can't deal with, there is no need for the other party to go to great lengths to let us in, let alone introduce the gravity prism in this way. Detailed.”
Lei Xiao nodded slightly and affirmed: "Furthermore, if the other party just wants to find thugs or pathfinders, there are obviously many more suitable choices in the outer realm than us. Although this place is very close to the human race, for those who can do it at will For the moving land of gods, distance is not a problem.”
"Then the answer is obvious. The other party must have sent the so-called invitation letter because he was unable to go."
Lei Xiao lightly snapped his fingers and continued: "The reason why the other party chose us is for two reasons. One is that the human race knows very little about the enchantment market, and it is easier to believe the other party's words. , and the second is that compared to other forces in the outside world, the human race with limited strength is obviously easier to control.”
"Lord, the other party is obviously so powerful, why can't I go there?"
Louise tilted her head, confusion written all over her fair face.
"I have some ideas about this."
Lei Xiao turned to the former Ice Divine Attendant standing beside him and asked: "Shuang, what are the results of the check just now?"
"Back to the lord, my subordinates can confirm that the Movie Market is indeed a place blessed by gods, but the true identity of the other party is definitely not a servant of gods, nor is it a creation of gods."
After Shuang said that, she first looked at Xiaojie, who was also a divine creation, and then frowned and said: "But from the other person's breath, I felt a trace of the same kind of familiar aura. This is really a little bit... I can’t figure it out.”
"Isn't it a divine creation, yet you feel a familiar aura of the same kind? The other party's true face hidden in the heavy armor is really intriguing."
Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully, and then continued to ask: "Is it possible that the other party is in the same situation as you, Lian, Xion and others?"
"Back to Lord, although I can't completely confirm it, it is very likely, because it is indeed unusual for my subordinates to be able to feel the energy fluctuations of the other party."
Shuang nodded heavily and responded.
Listening to the conversation between Lei Xiao and Shuang, Louise's already puzzled expression became even more confused. She turned her head and asked quickly: "Lord, what exactly is the "situation" you mentioned? ? ”
"Haven't you noticed that Shuang's strength sometimes changes?"
Lei Xiao touched Louise's head and smiled lightly.
"It's true. If you think about it carefully, when we were in Ice Stone City, this blue-haired and long-legged sister was indeed stronger, even comparable to her subordinates!"
Louise nodded thoughtfully, and then suddenly said: "I understand! Lord, you are saying that those big brown guys will only have amazing strength in the Movie Enchantment Market, and once they leave the Movie Enchantment Market, they will The strength will be reduced sharply, right?”
"Yes, this is what I mean by "the situation." ”
Lei Xiao confirmed Louise's view and responded: "Thinking about it this way, the first conjecture just now is reasonable. It is precisely because the other party's strength will drop sharply after leaving the Movie Enchantment Market, and it will even be far inferior to us. This So he had to send us an invitation letter to find something for him.”
"No wonder the other party never took a step outside the city gate. They just said they would use the city gate as a boundary to communicate with us."
Louise looked like she was suddenly enlightened and said with shining eyes: "As expected of the lord, my subordinates understand everything now!"
"I didn't expect those powerful market guards to be able to maintain their strength only in the Cinematic Market. No, to be more precise, it was the Cinematic Market that gave those guards greater strength."
Gars nodded thoughtfully, and then asked Lei Xiao doubtfully: "Lord, there is one thing that my subordinates still can't figure out. The Fanying Market is extremely well-known in the outside world. Even among the peak tribes, there are three With such a transcendent power, even if you can't leave the city, how can you not find a suitable helper, but go to all the trouble to get us to take action? "
"This is what puzzles me. There must be a deeper reason."
Lei Xiao shrugged and responded: "But judging from the current situation, the other party is indeed in great need of gravity prisms and has indeed found us. As long as we successfully find the kind of gravity prisms that the other party says "the more the better" resources, all initiative will be in our hands. ”
After hearing Lei Xiao's words, all the subordinates were gearing up, looking eager to try.
"But in the final analysis, everyone still knows the evil reputation of Upside Down Canyon, which means that it must be a dangerous place."
Lei Xiao pondered for a moment, and then ordered: "Hongye, Huzhang, Yecang, Gars, Erza and Nanxing and others lurking around are at the entrance to respond. Except for Xiaojie, all the other stone elves are also here. Temporarily restore to the [Stone of God] state.”
"As you command, Lord!"
The subordinates held their chests and saluted, and immediately began to take action.
Not long after, those who were still crowding around Lei Xiao, apart from Xiaojie, Bing Lao, and Yoniel, who had six-level combat abilities, and Louise and Diana, who had half-step sixth-level combat abilities, were the only one left. , Qi Duo two people.
"Including myself, are everyone's strength above the fifth level peak? I didn't expect that one day my strength would be able to surpass Huzhang and Hongye."
Thinking of this in his mind, Lei Xiao slowly took a deep breath, nodded to everyone and said: "Keep the dense formation, let's move forward."
Speaking of which, surrounded by powerful men, Lei Xiao, who was surrounded by translucent purple energy barriers, walked straight into the Upside Down Canyon as if he was wearing heavy armor.
The moment I stepped into the canyon, a strange lightness came from the soles of my feet.
For a moment, Lei Xiao felt as if he was stepping on a very elastic sponge, breaking away from gravity with every step he took, as if he could float into the air at any time.
"The weightless environment in this upside-down canyon is indeed extremely mysterious."
Lei Xiao felt this unprecedented experience and immediately nodded to Xiaojie.
Xiaojie understood, and a soft wave of energy stirred up, and Lei Xiao regained the solid feeling of stepping on the ground.
Not only that, the rich light of the absolute defensive barrier also flickered around the team, which can be said to give people a sense of security.
For Xiaojie, who is good at using confinement circles and exerting gravity suppression, it is easy for a group of people to regain gravity while supporting the absolute defense barrier. This is obviously much simpler than turning on the invisibility effect of the barrier.
Under the influence of Xiaojie's absolute defense barrier that maintains gravity, as the group of people moved forward, even the suspended gravel in front automatically gave way to the road, and gradually returned to its original state after everyone passed. For magic.
At the same time, Yoniel, the great wind mage who is good at sensing spells, was also concentrating on casting spells, guiding the team to avoid the violent energy vortex that appeared around them.
Through the cooperation of Xiaojie and Yoniel, our group of people gradually became familiar with the environment in the Upside Down Canyon and headed straight for the center of the canyon.
During this process, Lei Xiao further noticed.
The deeper you go into the depths of the canyon, not only does the surrounding atmosphere become more violent and chaotic, but the suspended gravel has also reached the point of blocking out the sky and the sun, just like a series of spectacular planetary rings, arranged in some neat structure. This undoubtedly means that weightlessness is also increasing.
In an earth-yellow deserted canyon, just as the rumors said, Lei Xiao even saw a clear stream rising slowly along the canyon wall towards the sky, trickling continuously.
"I have to say, this is really a shocking sight."
After looking around, Lei Xiao couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Although we don't know how this special weightless area was formed, it is indeed a sight that was unimaginable before. At the same time, it is also filled with naturally formed hostility, which can be said to be full of murderous intent.
However, under the protection of Yoniel's perception and Xiaojie's absolute defensive barrier, Lei Xiao obviously had no safety concerns.
"Your Majesty, the number of violent energy vortices ahead is obviously much denser, and the scope of influence is getting larger and larger."
A look of solemnity appeared on Yoniel's wrinkled old face, and he saluted Lei Xiao and said: "It seems that we are already very close to the central area of the canyon."
"Continue to keep up the pace and strive to find the gravity prism as soon as possible."
Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly and nodded to his subordinates.
Not long after, the sound of roaring energy and wind began to ring in everyone's ears.
Despite being blocked by an absolute defensive barrier, Lei Xiao couldn't feel the speed of the wind, but judging from the suspended sand and stones that were affected and rotated at extremely high speeds, it was obviously an extremely powerful force.
For a moment, the dense sand and stones like a tornado continued to hit the absolute defense barrier violently, making a crackling sound.
Lei Xiao keenly observed that there were some white fragments mixed in the sand and gravel, which were obviously the bones of some strong men who had not died here.
"Lord, it is the strong wind formed by gravity energy particles."
Xiaojie, who had been concentrating on maintaining the absolute defense barrier, did not have any ripples on her fair face. For her, this little effort was obviously not even a frown.
“I didn’t expect that the central area of the canyon would look like this.”
Lei Xiao was surprised and stared forward.
It can be clearly seen from the turning state of the gravel that the farther forward, the more violent the wind caused by gravity is, and this magical scene has probably lasted for who knows how many years.
Around Lei Xiao, everyone else looked the same.
This gravitational force wind is extremely regular and has no traces of spellcasting, which undoubtedly shows that it is formed naturally.
Although the scope of the influence is limited, it is quite similar to the vast polar region of the human world where there are four seasons of cold winter.
With surprise and caution, when the group finally arrived at the center of the canyon despite the increasingly fierce gravity wind, the scene in front of them immediately stunned everyone present.
What appeared in front of a group of people was a dark and deep underground abyss, and the steady stream of gravity wind rose from the abyss.
For a moment, this bottomless giant abyss seemed like a roaring bloody mouth, capable of swallowing up everything easily.
Such a dangerous scene, coupled with the flying sand and rocks that block the sky, give this place a bit of a desolate and dangerous apocalyptic feel.
"Is it true that the center of the Upside Down Canyon is an abyss leading deep underground? And this is also the source of weightlessness."
Lei Xiao looked at the vast abyss, which was round in shape, as if a giant hole had been dug out of the ground by some god. He couldn't help but exclaimed: "As expected of the Outer Territory, there are really secret realms everywhere and murderous intent everywhere." .”
Although he was just standing at the border and watching from a distance, Lei Xiao could clearly feel it while his heart was pounding.
Within the deep and mysterious abyss, various vortexes of violent energy emerge one after another, suspended in every corner. Not to mention the fifth-level powerhouse, even the sixth-level powerhouse will only be torn into pieces if he gets close.
This can be seen from Xiaojie's increasingly ugly face. She, who was just at ease just now, can already feel an extremely strong pressure.
The same goes for Yoniel, who was in charge of the investigation. His old face was full of surprise and solemnity.
"Lord, how did this come into being? Is it a product left over from the blank era? What is there in the deepest part of the abyss?"
Among the team, only Louise's fair face had a hint of curiosity, and she said carelessly.
"This is not the truth that we can figure out now."
Lei Xiao smiled at Louise, then calmed down and said: "It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. We will leave here after we find the gravity prism." As soon as Lei Xiao finished speaking, Louise's starry eyes lit up. , obviously discovered something.
