Chapter 269 Loneliness and nothingness, it's hard to die (8k)(1/4)
Back then, Yu Ziqing abducted a bunch of magic plant seedlings. In fact, up to now, these magic plants can only be regarded as having just advanced from the kindergarten stage to the elementary school stage.
The magic plant itself grows very slowly, but the advantage is that it has a long lifespan.
If the magic plants in Jinlan Mountain can grow normally, they can at least send away the current generation of Jinlan Mountain.
As a magic plant, as long as it can survive the growth period when it is most likely to die prematurely and live for thousands of years, it is not a big problem.
At that time, Yu Ziqing had the intention to make the bloodthirsty demon flower change his ways, but unfortunately, he refused to be deceived and people didn't care about him at all. Not killing him was already a loss of face.
Later, I probably understood that this bloodthirsty demon flower was probably the younger brother of the immortal Mandala.
Don't worry about anything else, at least this integrity is really good.
Without wasting any words or encountering any obstacles, Yu Ziqing went down the river of blood.
The river of blood seems to be flowing quietly, but it has not dried up yet. It has no source and seems to have no end. Only when you go deep into it can you feel the strange place.
As you go down the river, everything around you begins to become illusory, and in the end everything disappears, leaving only a river of blood.
I don’t know how long it took, but another illusory scene emerged, slowly transforming into a new space.
The moment he completely transformed from virtual reality to reality, the first thing Yu Ziqing smelled was the smell of strong fire, sulfur, and various poisonous gases.
There is a saying that it is much more disgusting than the pure foul gas that has been condensed and toxins added. At least the foul gas actually has no smell.
He took a gentle breath to spit out all the toxins he had inhaled. After Yu Ziqing landed on the shore, he looked around.
A desolate place.
It is like a volcano group that has just experienced a large-scale volcanic eruption. In the distance, you can see magma converging into rivers and flowing slowly.
Occasionally, you can see some strange insects, but other than that, there is nothing moving.
More importantly, the concentration of spiritual energy here is so low that almost all the spiritual energy is contaminated by fire and toxins.
For monks, this is a real desert.
There is really a difference between an abyss and an abyss.
From the Abyss Rift Valley of Dali, the abyss we entered was at least very vibrant, with a large number of various monsters. If it weren't for the fact that the magic plants were not very easy to survive, I'm afraid the number of magic plants would not be small.
But this level is a bit like the abyss in the legend, with an extremely harsh environment.
As we walked along, we could still vaguely feel the lingering ominous atmosphere.
If it hadn't been for the wig white water egg that came down and personally solved the crisis here, Yu Ziqing probably wouldn't be able to walk through it easily now.
The number one back then became crazy, in the final analysis, it was because he came here once with the wig white water egg.
This place, a sea of thousands of miles of magma, was originally the place where the Bronze people who were cursed by their bloodline were refined to death.
The blood curse permeates this area, and anyone who walks past it will be cursed by the blood curse.
Yu Ziqing heard Xin No. 5 talking about this place, but he had never been there.
He originally wanted to ask where the cursed treasure transformed from the bloodline curse that was taken away was.
But the new No. 5 was not suitable for taking the initiative to ask questions, so the matter was put off.
Flying over at low altitude, bubbles emerged from the magma sea from time to time, releasing more poisonous gas.
After passing the first theoretical obstacle, we actually encountered no danger. As we continued to move forward, the magma sea gradually disappeared, but the fire became increasingly intense.
Looking up into the distance, you can vaguely see billowing black smoke, and occasionally you can hear some thunderous sounds. Not long after, you can also see a burned red boulder, dragging a long tail of black smoke, falling from the sky.
Huge mountains are burning with flames, and in many places they look like red-hot irons.
When Yu Ziqing got closer, he saw a monster with a burning flame on its head, walking in the flames, its whole body red, and resembling an ape, sticking its head out from the top of a mountain.
Yu Ziqing was slightly startled. They looked very similar to the red ape in his body, but they were not the same thing in essence.
Red Ape is based on anger. When the anger burns, it becomes as quiet as an old monk in meditation.
The red ape here was very violent. As soon as Yu Ziqing took a look, he saw a burning boulder in the distance hit the red ape, sending it flying backwards.
In the distance, there is another red ape, jumping on the top of the mountains, chasing after it quickly, and the two red apes are fighting each other.
Yu Ziqing silently mobilized his power and included himself in the flames, giving up the idea of pretending to be a red ape.
He is used to pretending to be of the same race to avoid trouble.
But I forgot that for some monsters, people of the same race are the most ruthless.
Anyway, let’s pretend it doesn’t exist for now.
As we continue to move forward, there are more and more traces left behind, some of which are obviously traces left by the strong men of the human race.
There are also more and more red apes encountered, but the red apes here get along very well and do not attack each other.
At this time, the little red ape in Yu Ziqing's body sent him some information.
These red apes are communicating and having intelligence. The two big guys we just met are vying for the position of the new leader.
The previous leader was killed by a guy passing by before.
"Can you find a red monkey to help lead the way?"
"You can try it."
Yu Ziqing mobilized the aura of the red ape, disguised himself as a monster, and found a 10-foot-tall red ape on the edge of the territory. He must have been a minor.
It's just that Yu Ziqing doesn't quite understand. Shouldn't all underage cubs be placed in the core area?
These guys, the strong ones are at the core, and the weak ones are on the periphery.
Yu Ziqing looked around and saw that there was no one around, and slowly walked over.
The red ape turned his head and glanced, his eyes a little dull. He couldn't tell the difference in breath, but he just felt that this hairless fellow clan leader looked weird.
Yu Ziqing took out a red crystal and threw it to the other party. It contained strong fire energy.
"Ask him to help lead the way. When we get there, give him another piece."
The little red ape sent out the message. The red ape held the crystal and shrank its neck in fear. It recognized them as those scary guys that passed by before.
I wanted to call for help, but I thought that the last leader had been beaten to death, and no one seemed to dare to call for help.
Little Akagi passed the message over again. Akagi hesitated, opened his mouth, swallowed the crystal, and led the way obediently.
Yu Ziqing had peeked at the map back then, but unfortunately, it was only a general direction.
After entering here, the deeper you go, the more you understand that there is only one place in this ghost place. Don't worry, you will probably get lost.
Chaos, desolation, and space are all a bit out of order. In the Red Ape's territory, the flames are burning, distorting the sight. If the sight exceeds a certain range, there will be deviations.
Yu Ziqing used inducements and threats, and brought a red ape to lead the way. They walked among the mountains. The journey was indeed different from what Yu Ziqing had imagined.
It seems like it's all going through twists and turns, but excluding the twisted parts is indeed the shortest route.
Yu Ziqing followed behind, silently summarizing the rules and seeing if he could think of a way to correct the distortion himself.
If he could sum it up, he would be able to successfully pass through the red ape's territory, and maybe he could even start a subject because of it.
Now that the data has been collected, you can ask Lao Yang to create a secret method or upgrade the mountain-protecting formation.
After a few days, there were fewer and fewer mountains burning with flames, and Akagi who led the way was unwilling to go any further.
Yu Ziqing didn't know what he was saying, and he was trembling a little while talking.
The little red ape in Yu Ziqing’s body translated it.
Akamon said that it was too cold and he would freeze to death if he went any further. Many people in his tribe froze to death outside.
Yu Ziqing looked at the surrounding environment and could still see the lava river, but there were only scattered flames left.
But the temperature here is still very high. At least just throw the eggs on the ground and they will be cooked in a while.
Yu Ziqing was a little stunned. If he looked carefully, the flames burning on Chi Yuan's body had indeed weakened a lot, and he really seemed to be shivering from the cold.
This red ape is too lazy. It has such high requirements on the environment. No wonder it has been trapped here.
Yu Ziqing also wanted to persuade him and give him more benefits, but the red ape was so determined that he would rather be beaten to death than freeze to death.
Yu Ziqing had no choice but to take out two crystals and throw them to the other party.
"Don't go back too far. When I come back, I need you to show me the way. I'll give you a few more pills then."
Akagi took the crystal, ran back into the flames quickly, and even jumped into the magma to recover.
Yu Ziqing scratched his head when he saw it, it couldn't be that big of a deal.
But if you look closely, Akagi seems to be really uncomfortable with the cold.
Come on, these red apes are completely unable to adapt to other environments. For this kind of monster, if you let it go to the human world, it will probably think that you are harming it.
Invading the human world is simply impossible.
It makes sense if you think about it carefully. In the northern part of the earthquake, the temperature only dropped by about 20 degrees. Now it has become a desert cut off from life, and everyone has been forced to migrate.
To compare, when the red ape came out of its territory, it was equivalent to walking to a place where the temperature was thousands of degrees lower than the most suitable for survival. It was indeed not easy to avoid freezing to death.
Yu Ziqing recalled that the demons he encountered in the first abyss did not seem so extreme.
I don’t know how deep this abyss is, and the difference in alienation can be so great.
To be continued...
