Chapter 68 Jialingguan Ruins
After leaving the border of the Star Dou Forest, the four of them headed north. Not long after, they crossed the border between the two countries and entered the Tianhun Empire.
After pondering over the map for a while, Shu Yan decided to go to the Jialingguan ruins first. The reason was actually very simple. Judging from everyone's traveling route, they happened to pass through there on the way, and this time the other destination was Long. The city is still far to the northeast of the Tianhun Empire, and it can even be said that it is not far away from the extreme north. It is still somewhat unreasonable to look far away instead of the near.
After entering the Tianhun Empire, the four of them were not as blatant as before.
After the split of the Tiandou Empire, the Tianhun Empire inherited most of the land and power of the original Tiandou Empire, while the Douling Empire occupied most of the land along the eastern coast. Since then, there have been frequent wars between the two empires. happened, and even though the superficial peace has been maintained until now, in fact the relationship is just like that. If it were not for the threat of the Sun and Moon Empire, I am afraid that there would be no peace on the border between the two countries now.
The Jialingguan ruins mentioned by Qiangu Chaosheng happened to be the center of the Tianling Mountains on the current border between Tianhun and Lingdou.
As the main battlefield of the divine war ten thousand years ago, countless creatures died there, and even the former Rakshasa god rested there... For a long time after the divine war ended, the entire Jialing Pass could be said to be full of resentment. Soaring into the sky, the breath of death and decay was also solidified on this unknown land...
Later, due to changes in the current situation, the original Jialing Pass was abandoned for various reasons. At that time, Emperor Tiandou chose to build a new city behind the old Jialing Pass, and the old Jialing Pass has since become the most popular city in the world. It is a mysterious place. Except for some descendants of sects who regularly go there to worship their ancestors, almost no one is willing to set foot there, for fear that they will be contaminated by the unknown atmosphere...
After easily evading the detection of an army stationed at the border of the Tianhun Empire, Shu Yan and the others arrived at this deserted land that was almost unrecognizable now with almost no effort.
Thousands of years have passed, and the original towering and solid walls of the old Jialing Pass have gradually collapsed and collapsed. Countless weeds swayed with the strong winds coming from outside the pass. There was now more vegetation on the originally bare rocky mountains, but there was still no trace of any vegetation. Breath of life.
Looking out from the collapsed city wall, there is also no trace of life on an empty plain. Countless tombs stand on it. The land here is an extremely ominous and deep color, as if it is a constant reminder. Let the world know what happened here thousands of years ago.
The four of them stood against the strong wind on an ancient city wall that had not yet collapsed. For some reason, a sad mood quietly emerged from their hearts. The Snow Emperor looked at the perennial clouds above the land, and then said softly ：
"Many lives have died here, and even the earth's veins and the power of the sky have been affected. You can imagine how terrible and bloody the war that broke out ten thousand years ago was..."
Ice Emperor pulled Shu Yan's clothes, and then said with some discomfort:
"Shu Yan, are you sure that old man didn't lie to you? This place doesn't look like it exists by chance. On the contrary, it gives people a bad feeling..."
Xu Jiujiu nodded in agreement. The feeling here was somewhat similar to that of the demiplane of the undead. Even if she just stood here, she felt a cold air entering her body, and even her soul power seemed to have been affected. The shares are lightly suppressed.
Shu Yan frowned and then said:
"There is no need for Qianlao to lie to me. Let's go down and have a look. God Rakshasa fell here thousands of years ago, but from Qianlao's mouth we can know that her consciousness has not died. There should be something here that we cannot feel. It exists..." Snow Emperor also nodded, and everyone jumped down from the city wall, and then fell into the endless tombs.
Walking along the gap between the withered tombs, all the way to the depths, in addition to the whistling wind, there are the sounds of some small spirit beasts running by. Countless names are engraved on the tilted and broken tombstones that are so blurred that they cannot be recognized. There are thousands of them. Some of the soldiers of the Tiandou Empire years ago were powerful men from the Wuhun Palace lineage, but today, ten thousand years later, they are all withered bones in the graves, and no one is even willing to come to worship them.
After walking for about twenty minutes, everyone found a tomb in the center of all the withered tombs that was obviously different in size and even style from other withered tombs. Around this tomb, four pillars were tens of meters high. The stone pillars stand upright here. After tens of thousands of years of wind and rain, the surfaces of these stone pillars were covered with dust and various traces, but the mysterious and complex patterns on them were still clear. Shu Yan touched them tentatively, and his hands felt cold, but soon , but all four people in the group noticed something unusual.
The surrounding space seemed to have been intervened by an invisible force. The sand and stones on the surrounding land were shaken and floated. The dust and shell on the four stone pillars began to peel off, and a dark purple light with an evil feeling bloomed. The next moment, almost in the blink of an eye, everyone had arrived in another world.
Different from the coldness in the demiplane of the undead, the space the four came to was filled with an unspeakable evil force. Under the envelope of this evil energy, even mental power could not be freely used. The soul power was even blocked.
Overall, everyone seemed to be in a big hall. The light in the main hall was a little dim, and the various pillars and decorations all looked a little strange. Deep in the main hall, a beautiful woman wearing a lavender dress slowly emerged from the darkness. Almost instantly, Xue The hairs on the Emperor and Ice Emperor's bodies stood on end. Their subconscious told them that the power possessed by this noble and cold-blooded human woman was definitely above them. Just one glance gave them a huge feeling. Sense of crisis.
She took two steps back for a long time and subconsciously turned her attention to Shu Yan. At this time, the two ice and snow emperors together gave her less sense of security than Shu Yan alone. She always had an extraordinary trust in Shu Yan. , this is true at any time...
Shu Yan looked at the woman in front of him who was still unparalleled in elegance even after tens of thousands of years. A slight smile appeared on his face, and then he said:
"Senior, what do you think I should call you?"
A faint smile appeared on the face of the beautiful woman. This smile contained an indescribable charm. After the four people came to their senses, the beautiful woman was already sitting on the main seat behind them.
An appraising gaze fell on Shu Yan and the others. The beautiful woman's fair and slender legs were folded together. She supported her chin with one hand and said with a chuckle:
"I have fallen to this. You can call me whatever you want. In addition, the reason why I am willing to see you is because I feel a familiar aura in you. That is the Panlong Stick Spirit Master back then. You Are they his descendants? Or are they his disciples? ”
