Chapter 316: Long Worm
The Tiannan Region is very large.
The Seven Kingdoms area is at the top. Going north is the Dead Silence North Sea, which is covered with ice and snow all year round, with thin spiritual energy and a harsh environment. Going south are two places, the southwest is the evil cultivation land, and the southeast is the sea area. The three are arranged like a "品" character.
Going southwest from the evil cultivation land is the Tiannan Region.
The border is blocked by the Wan Yao Mountains.
The Tiannan Region is like an inverted polygon, with the top connected to the Dead Silence North Sea and the southernmost connected to the sea area at the bottom. It is the largest piece of land in this area. It is only because the pass between the evil cultivation land and the Tiannan Region is at the bottom corner that many people think that the Tiannan Region is in the south of the evil cultivation land. In fact, the west and northwest of the evil cultivation land are all Tiannan Region, but there is a barrier of the Wan Yao Mountains, and there is no way to cross it, so people feel that it is in the southwest.
After flying away from the Shenhu Xianmen, Chen Luo flew southeast.
Half a day later, he arrived at the place where Xue Ning had laid out.
This is a small town near the sea. Like Mushan City, it is a city of Sheguo. After the change of dynasties, it also became the territory of Cangguo.
However, this place is remote and it is inconvenient to communicate information. The people in charge did not pay attention to these things. In the eyes of the people below, changing the name is the business of the big figures above, and the changes are all kings, princes, generals and ministers, which has nothing to do with them. The Sheguo flag hanging on the top of the city has not been changed, and everyone is still living their previous lives.
The changes in Shenhu Xianmen and the center of the dynasty have not caused any impact here.
This place is remote, the spiritual energy is thin, and the immortal cultivators are almost extinct. Chen Luo sensed it in the air and did not find a single immortal cultivator.
After passing the small town, Chen Luo went deep into the mountains. Here he finally found the small valley arranged by Xue Ning.
There is a person in charge left by Xue Ning here. As long as this person is found, he can quickly figure out what happened here and take over the power left by Xue Ning in the sea. After being promoted to the Jindan stage, Chen Luo needed a batch of higher-quality brains, a force that completely obeyed him and could help him quickly collect enough brains, and the ‘Heart Demon Art’ also needed people to help him spread the ‘Heart Demon Seed’.
“No one?”
The valley was not big, Chen Luo spread his consciousness and quickly took in everything in the valley.
After falling into the valley, Chen Luo took a look at the only thatched house inside. This house was arranged by Xue Ning, and everything was the same as in his memory. It stands to reason that there should be a mute slave waiting for him here, but now there is no living person in the valley.
Chen Luo walked over and pushed open the wooden door, ready to see if there are any clues inside.
The furnishings in the house are simple, with only a bed and a table, two round stools tilted to one side, and the oil lamp on the table was also knocked over to one side, leaving a circular mark on the table. Other places are also very messy, as if they encountered something urgent, and the people living in it fled urgently.
Chen Luo walked in and used his index finger to touch it, and found that there was a thick layer of white ash on it. Judging from the thickness, no one had been here for at least ten years, which was very different from the arrangement in Xue Ning's memory.
"Strange."
This is the place arranged by Xue Ning. If there is any change, the people inside should notify her as soon as possible. Why didn't even Xue Ning receive the news?
Chen Luo searched around in the valley and found no clues.
He flew out of the valley again and searched around. After scanning with his spiritual sense, he soon found several woodcutters who went up the mountain to chop wood on a mountain road. These people didn't have any spiritual energy at all, and they were ordinary people at first glance.
Chen Luo flew down from the air, ready to find these people to ask what happened in the valley.
A person flying down from the sky was naturally seen by several woodcutters who went up the mountain. Several woodcutters quickly put down the dead wood on their backs and saluted Chen Luo respectfully.
One of them spoke a long paragraph.
Chen Luo was stunned for a moment.
These people don't know the official language of the country? He had never encountered such a scene before when he went to the evil cultivation land and Tiannan region. Although these two places span tens of millions of miles, they are essentially the same. That is, the pronunciation is slightly different, and you can understand it with a little brain. But this place is the first time Chen Luo has come here, and there are no people from this place in the brains he collected, so naturally he can't understand what they say.
The perception of the Jindan Zhenren is very strong. Chen Luo can roughly hear the awe these people want to express, but he can't understand the specific meaning. It's meaningless to understand awe. He wants to inquire about the news in the valley and find the mute slave left by Xue Ning.
"Do you understand Mandarin?"
Chen Luo tried to ask.
Several woodcutters showed a blank expression, and one of them hesitated for a moment and asked in the poor Mandarin of the Sheguo.
"Immortal. Is. Eating?"
Seeing what he said, Chen Luo was immediately amused. He should have only learned some fixed sentences and had never really talked to anyone.
But Chen Luo didn't care, as long as he could understand it roughly.
"Do you know where the people in the valley went?" Chen Luo pointed in the direction of the valley. These woodcutters were all nearby villagers. If there was any change in the valley, it would be most direct to ask them.
"Snakes are bigger than worms!!"
Seeing the direction Chen Luo pointed, several woodcutters showed horrified expressions on their faces. The woodcutter who could speak some Mandarin danced for a long time and finally gave a general idea.
Snake?
Could it be a monster?
Chen Luo was somewhat skeptical. He had been to the valley before. If there were monsters in the valley, he should be able to sense it.
Several woodcutters talked for a long time, and the woodcutter who could speak Mandarin even volunteered to take Chen Luo to see the long worms. These woodcutters must have met immortal cultivators before, and it was because of this that he was so enthusiastic. Because leading the immortal cultivators would be rewarded by the immortals.
Seeing this, Chen Luo threw out a few spiritual stones.
After the formation of the elixir, the spiritual stones can be extracted from the vitality of heaven and earth by themselves, but it takes some time. Normal elixir cultivators would not do such a thing, and the effort and reward are not proportional.
The woodcutters who got the spiritual stones were excited and took the initiative to lead Chen Luo to the other side.
This direction is different from the previous valley. There are many weeds and the forest is very lush. The rotten dead leaves on the ground are black, like the old forest that no one has ever set foot on.
Several woodcutters make a living in the mountains, and they walk very fast on the mountain roads, not to mention Chen Luo. This kind of terrain is like walking on flat ground for him. After passing through two hills, the woodcutters in front stopped and pointed to a cave in front and said.
"Longworm. Nest."
Several woodcutters dared not go forward. Their village had lost a cow before, and several young and strong people followed it all the way, but none of the people who entered the cave came back.
Chen Luo spread his spiritual sense and found that there was actually a demonic aura in the cave. The specific strength could not be sensed. There was a special energy in the cave that blocked the spiritual sense. He stretched out his sleeves and took out a piece of talisman paper. The paper shook twice on the ground and turned into several palm-sized little people.
"Go in and try it out."
Several woodcutters next to him saw this scene, and the awe in their eyes became heavier.
Several talisman paper people climbed up along the stone, and their vivid movements were no different from real people. After forming the elixir, Chen Luo's talisman cultivation has also improved. Now he can draw the third-level talisman. The talisman paper figures made with this strength are naturally very different from the previous ones.
After a long time, a roar suddenly came from the cave.
The induction of the paper figures that Chen Luo put in was suddenly disconnected, and a demonic aura mixed with a fishy smell rolled out from inside, and several white bones were blown out. The woodcutters had never seen such a momentum, and they were frightened and retreated one after another. They hid far away and hid behind the big rocks to watch secretly. Chen Luo was also impacted by this demonic aura, and his robes rustled.
"Dare to eat anything."
Chen Luo stretched out his hand and took out a small black stone.
This stone is the 'demon seed' of the master of the seed demon sect. The several paper figures he put in before all had curses drawn by him. The monster in the cave dared to eat the paper figure, which meant that the curse was also swallowed by it.
He saw him pinch the seal with one hand, and a black spiritual power appeared at his fingertips.
The tip of his index finger lightly touched the magic stone, and then he heard a "crack" sound, and the stone broke. An invisible force was transmitted into it.
In the cave.
A huge black snake with its body coiled up wailed in pain, and its body twisted in the cave. Its tail swept fiercely on the stone wall next to it, and then a "boom" was heard, the mountain shook, and a stronger demonic energy burst out from the snake's body.
But the emission of demonic energy could not solve the problem. Strands of black breath ignored the demonic power and merged into its brain.
The attacked black was madly ramming in the cave, and the ground outside was shaking, and the broken stones fell. Several woodcutters were frightened and pale, and kept shouting words like "The mountain master is angry".
Chen Luo ignored them, he grabbed the air and spread his palm.
The powder after the black stone cracked, I don't know when it floated up, mixed with a wisp of black and gray energy, and condensed into a dark snake-shaped soul in his palm.
This is the effect of the superposition of the ghost cultivation method and the curse.
Chen Luo has the brain of the demon sect master and the brain of the ghost cultivator Xue Ning. The superposition of the two is more terrifying than when they were alive.
"If you eat anything you will die!"
Chen Luo did not intend to take the risk. He stretched out his index finger and gently pinched the phantom of the little snake in his hand. The dark phantom of the little snake was gently pinched off by two fingers, especially the head, which was directly pinched into nothingness.
Boom
An angry roar came from the cave, and then there was a violent collision. The mountain above was cracked, and a large amount of soil and sand fell down. It took a long time for it to return to calm.
