Chapter 272 Imperial City
Chapter 272 Imperial City
"call!"
At this moment, a gust of wind blew along the ancient road, causing the treetops to shake rustlingly. Many leaves were blown down, like dandelion seeds flying in the sky, which was very beautiful.
"Hey, blood-stained leaves!" Mu Yan's heart sank when he saw the leaves in front of him.
"Hey!"
The leaf was like a sharp fairy sword. It instantly cut through a towering mountain that was "blocking" its way forward and flew away.
"What!" Seeing this scene, Mu Yan was shocked and his breathing became rapid.
What a horrible leaf that was. Fortunately, he was not too curious, otherwise it would not be the towering mountain that was cut in half, but him.
After this incident, Mu Yan gained a better understanding of the strange no-man's land.
"This was once a battlefield in the ancient times of the immortals. Many great figures fell here. If you come to me or a true immortal, you will see bloodshed here! It is very likely that a drop of water will take your life. Don't try to approach unknown creatures!"
Seeing Mu Yan’s palpitations, Ye Xiu warned him.
In this no-man's land, if you don't look at it with strange eyes, it is actually very magnificent, with forests and swaying tree shadows.
However, if you look at it with an unusual eye, this place is extremely eerie and strange. If someone with a weak mind goes deep into this place inexplicably, there will be no chance of survival.
Because there are too many strange things here. The yellow mud and water drops that can kill the leader are just the tip of the iceberg here, which is far from being fully understood by ordinary people.
At the same time, Ye Xiu also understood why Qin Changsheng once said that the no-man's land was very terrifying. There was no other reason, it was because there were too many things left here and it was difficult to clean up. With the current foundation of the primitive ancient world, there was no possibility of a solution at all.
Let alone anything else, the number of dead alien creatures, the limbs they left behind, and the essence and blood they left behind were so numerous and weird that they were extremely numerous. When they were so crowded in one place, it was natural that black disasters would often erupt.
In addition, the creatures from the primitive ancient world who died here also exacerbated the changes of the demons. Perhaps they did not have such thoughts during their lifetime, but who can control them after death?
Of course, the most important thing is that there are traces of the fierce confrontation between the Immortal King and the Immortal King, and their blood and bones are spilled here.
When they reach that level, if their blood and bones undergo strange changes, it will be a huge disaster. Anyone who encounters it will die.
In this way, he moved away from the Three Thousand Dao States, went deep into the uninhabited restricted area, and headed towards the borderland. After seeing too many strange things, Ye Xiu understood a lot of things.
"Ta-ta."
Suddenly, in the deeper part of this uninhabited area, when Ye Xiu and Mu Yan walked here, heavy footsteps were heard in the distance. Of course, those footsteps did not belong to humans, but to ferocious beasts.
"Dark creatures?" Ye Xiu came here mainly to take a look at the black disaster in the unmanned restricted area, and now that he encountered it head-on, he felt something in his heart.
They were a group of people, riding on ferocious-looking exotic beasts. Their iron armor was cold and their aura was stern. It was obvious that they were all experienced warriors.
"kill!"
When the leading knight saw that there were only Ye Xiu and Mu Yan, he urged his cavalry to charge forward.
This team of people is very strong. They are not the kind of people who practice Taoism in seclusion all day long, but the ones who have emerged from the battlefield after being bathed in blood and fire. When they go out together like this, all of them display their powerful skills and attack the same person. They can definitely defeat creatures who are at a higher level than them.
The leader of the team was also a religious leader. Mu Yan had been holding his breath in the no-man's land because of those strange creatures. Now that he saw such a team of knights, he naturally rushed forward to kill them.
"boom!"
Although Mu Yan was strong, he was still inferior to the knights who had been fighting in the borderland for years. Not to mention the leading knight, the battle formation composed of those monks in the realm of gods alone made him overwhelmed.
After a few rounds, Mu Yan fell into a disadvantage.
Seeing this scene, Ye Xiu was speechless. As the leader of the imperial clan, Mu Yan was much stronger than most of the leaders in the Three Thousand States. However, he was unable to stop the knights from Upper Wasteland and was in danger of being killed.
In desperation, Ye Xiu had to take action, after all, he still needed to contact the creatures in Diguanzhong through him.
The sword light was shining brightly, that was the brilliant Cao sword technique, it slashed towards the group of people from where Ye Xiu was, nothing could stop it, showing its destructive power that could crush everything in its path.
"puff!"
With the sound of blood splattering, none of them could resist. Their bodies and spirits were all destroyed and they died under the Cao sword technique.
"Thank you, sir!" Mu Yan, who was rescued, was in a very embarrassed state.
Ye Xiu looked at him and shook his head, saying: "After years of comfortable life, you have long forgotten to be prepared for danger. This is just a cultivator at the God level. If you were to go to a real battlefield, you might not even be able to hold out for a single encounter."
Hearing Ye Xiu's words, Mu Yan's face turned red and he didn't know how to refute.
Although the fierce battle just now was short, a team of knights at the divine level were able to crush him, which left him speechless.
"Practice well! Otherwise, when the world changes drastically in the future, you..."
Although Ye Xiu didn't finish his words, Mu Yan already understood what he meant.
There were only a few gods, but he was overwhelmed. If the commander took action, he could be killed instantly.
Regardless of what he was thinking, Ye Xiu looked at the bodies scattered on the ground.
After Ye Xiu's tracing and true understanding, he knew the origin of this team of people. In a way, what they said before was not wrong. They were indeed from an ancient city in this uninhabited restricted area, and they were monks guarding the city.
But that's in the past.
Just as the information he had obtained, creatures that deal with darkness for a long time will eventually be contaminated by dark matter, which will then cause big problems.
The same is true for this team.
"Sir, who are they and why are they suddenly attacking us?" Mu Yan approached and asked.
"A person whose will has been eroded, corrupted and demonized." Ye Xiu said.
"There are still people like this. Is it because of this uninhabited restricted area?" Mu Yan was horrified. Those people looked no different from ordinary people. If one came into contact with them without knowing it, he would die without knowing how.
"Maybe! But it is more likely to be eroded by strange substances! In the future, when the world changes drastically, some strange substances in the no-man's land will appear again, and may even appear in the Three Thousand Dao States. That will be the real upheaval!"
Ye Xiu did not elaborate. Cultivators like Mu Yan, who had lived in comfort in the Three Thousand States for a long time, would be unable to do anything except running for their lives when they encountered something strange in the future.
Will appear in Three Thousand Dao States!
Ye Xiu's words rang like a thunder in Mu Yan's mind. According to Ye Xiu, the team of knights that appeared just now were just strangely demonized, but they had such combat power.
If the real weirdness appears, who can stop it in the Three Thousand Dao States!
"Let's go. The place we are going to is still far away." The next moment, Ye Xiu took a step and was on the road again. However, although he looked calm on the surface, he actually had many thoughts in his mind and saw a lot.
He thought that group of people were dark creatures at first, but from the feedback from Zhenjie and Zhuihu, he knew that they were not dark creatures. They were just confused by the mist that permeated from the borderland and thus fell.
To some extent, this situation is very similar to that of the two people in the Virtual God Realm.
Of course, although the symptoms are the same, the results are not the same. Compared with the two people in the Virtual God Realm, this team of people seems to be manipulated.
In other words, that kind of demonization is a given state, and this is why they can communicate like normal creatures and have their own souls.
However, it would be fine if it was really demonized, but this kind of demonization revealed a lot of information indirectly.
