Chapter 257: The City in the Heart of the Earth

"Yes" A very strong young man walked up to Li Muran, took out a spiritual rope, and bound Li Muran's hands and feet.

"Don't blame me for my clan brother. After all, my clan brother came down from the dome. I have to wait and deal with it carefully. When the clan leader understands his clan brother's identity, he will naturally treat him with courtesy," said the sturdy young man.

"I understand," Li Muran said lightly. In fact, he could not move at all, and the other party was just a waste of time.

"You are fellow Taoist Ye Xi, you can't move. If you are in trouble, Fellow Daoist Ye is coming," Li Muran said to the young man.

Ye Xi smiled slightly, carried Li Muran on his body, and said, "Ye Xi can bear the honor of being a distinguished guest like his clan brother."

Ye Xi carried Li Muran on his back and continued walking deep into the ground with another Dark Night Clan monk one after another.

There is a dark, narrow, but extremely deep passage here, leading to the depths of the ground obliquely.

After walking for a long time, Li Muran was quite surprised. The ancient cave where he fought with the Dragon Man monks was already in the deep underground. After a war, the ground of the cave was torn apart, and the two fell into the gully, and they became deeper. At this time, they were still following the passage and moving deep into the underground. After counting it, Isn’t this a thousand feet deep?

Li Muran didn't dare to ask too much, but fortunately, some faint fluorescence suddenly appeared around him. After walking for a while, the surroundings suddenly became clear, and it turned out to be a dungeon.

Who would have thought that deep underground in the Ten Thousand Demon Valley where the orcs and monsters junctions, there was a city of the Dark Night Clan

Li Muran looked around and saw that the land above his head, the dome in the mouth of the Dark Night tribe, was more than a hundred feet away, and was inlaid with countless large and small fluorescent stones, shining with stars and light, illuminating the dungeon, looking like the stars in the night sky.

Although it is not very bright, it is enough for the Dark Night tribe who is good at seeing things in the darkness.

"This city is very wide, but there are many places that are a little dilapidated and seem to be uninhabited." Li Muran said in his heart, "It seems that the Dark Night Clan is also declining and has few people."

After Ye Xi and others entered the city, they were immediately stopped by several guards and interrogated.

A guard said in shock: "What's going on? How did you bring an orc monk here? Didn't the clan leader repeatedly remind me not to deal with orcs and demon monks? Once the news of this clan is leaked, the clan will face the disaster of extermination."

"Brother Yan, don't worry, this clan brother is also a member of my Dark Night clan," Ye Xi said with a smile.

"He is also a member of the Dark Night Clan? It's not like it at all." The guard was stunned and said suspiciously: "Don't trust others easily. If you fall in love with others, do he have any evidence to prove his identity as the Dark Night Clan?

Ye Xi said: "Hey, Brother Yan is worried that this clan brother can tell the skills of his clan, and it is more complete than what I have waited for. This is the best proof that I will take this clan brother to meet with the clan leader. The clan leader will naturally know what to do."

"So that's it." Guard was stunned and hurriedly made his way out and escorted Ye Xi and others to the main hall where the clan leader was.

This is an ancient temple made of earth and stone. Although it is obviously a bit old, it is quite grand and is located in the center of the entire city.

Along the way, many people from the Dark Night tribe heard the news and came to watch.

Ye Xi said to Li Muran: "Don't blame the strict regulations of this clan. Most of these clans cannot leave the underground for life, so they have never seen other cultivators outside of their clan. When they see the orcs of their clan, they are very curious."

Li Muran nodded in his heart. It is necessary to be so cautious that the Dark Night Clan can survive underground without being discovered by the Orcs and Demons.

At the same time, Li Muran also discovered that these Dark Night clan members were roughly the same as ordinary human monks, but their eyes seemed to be bigger, but they were slightly shorter, and their hands and feet were slightly shorter. Tall and strong monks like Ye Xi were rare in Dark Night clans.

Perhaps because they don’t see the sun and the moon all year round, their skin is extremely white.

Seeing Li Muran's half-human and half-qilin appearance, these Dark Night tribe members were very scared and afraid at first, but when they heard that he was also a Dark Night tribe, they became more and more curious.

There were many people from the Dark Night tribe living nearby. When they heard the news, they rushed into a circle and rushed Li Muran to the hall where the clan leader was.

"It's all gone. If there is any other news, the patriarch will send someone to inform everyone." Ye Xi said loudly, and then entered the hall with Li Muran on his back. Other members of the Dark Night tribe stopped outside the hall, and only a few guards were qualified to accompany him.

Because Li Muran could not move, Ye Xi lay him flat on the stone table in the hall.

Ye Xi bowed to Li Muran and said, "My clan brother, the incident happened suddenly. I am sorry for not being able to greet you. After the clan leader confirms his identity, we will apologize to the clan brother."

"I'm... I understand," Li Muran said. The backlash he suffered was getting stronger and stronger. I'm afraid that for another half an hour, I wouldn't even be able to speak.

Li Muran thought to himself that it was not good. In this case, even if he could recover through rest, how much damage would his body be damaged, whether his mana would be greatly reduced, and how much power of the Qilin blood could be absorbed, it is hard to say.

The worst case is that he was seriously injured and his cultivation level was greatly reduced. Then the blood of the Qilin was wasted in vain. However, when facing the powerful true dragon magic image just now, Li Muran had no other way to save his life except for forcibly refining and stimulating the blood of the Qilin.

Not long after Li Muran was lying down in the hall, a thin old man with white eyebrows and white hair rushed into the hall, with a hurried look in his expression.

"I heard that you brought orc monks who claimed to be their own clan here?" The old man said anxiously. Then he saw Li Muran lying on the stone platform without moving, his hands and feet were bound by spiritual ropes. He was shocked and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately he has no power to resist," the old man said in his heart.

Ye Xi and others walked forward and reported to the old man in secret voice, and the old man's expression also changed several times.

"Okay, I know what happened. You can retreat first and let me talk to this person in detail." The old man nodded, then signaled Ye Xi and others to retreat.

A moment later, only the old man and Li Muran were left in the hall.

"You are the patriarch of the Dark Night Clan here? It seems that his cultivation is not high," Li Muran said lightly. Although his magic power was sealed and his divine consciousness could not leave his body, with his knowledge, from the old man's every move, he could still feel that the other party's cultivation level would not be too high. He should not be a master above the Dharma Status Period, and most of them were also a cultivator of the Divine Travel Period.

The old man nodded slightly and sighed: "The talents of this clan are becoming increasingly dying. Although I only have the middle-level Shenyou cultivation level, I am already the highest-level person in this clan."

"So that's it," Li Muran said: "It seems that the Dark Night Clan is weaker than I imagined.

"I heard from Ye Xi and others that fellow Taoists have mastered the martial arts of their clan and it seems to be more complete. Is there such a thing?" The elder of the clan changed the topic and returned to the main topic.

"Good" Li Muran also did not deny it.

The old man said seriously: "This underground city is where our clan lives for generations. It may not last less than ten thousand years, and it was once prosperous. I once saw in the classics that our clan is in the ancient land, and there may be other tribes living in seclusion deep underground. Could it be that fellow Taoists are monks from other tribes?"

After pondering for a moment, Li Muran said, "It was just a coincidence that I obtained the direct martial arts of the Dark Night Clan, and it should have been the hand of a great figure in the ancient times of the Dark Night Clan, so the martial arts are very complete. As for the origin of the Dark Night Clan, it is not very convenient to disclose; but you can rest assured that the person below is indeed a human race, not an orc. As long as the injury is slightly calmed down, the refined orc blood can be suppressed and then turned into a human form."

"What do you mean by a fellow Taoist is planning to recover from your own tribe?" The old man said: "I wonder if it is convenient for me to teach the complete skills during my rehabilitation?"

"I have this intention in the lower part," Li Muran said: "These exercises will be passed down to you and others in a word. From the consecration of the ancestral orifice, the exercises of the early stage of the Qi and the late stage of the true body, all of which are available.

"Are there any martial arts in the late stage of the true body?" The old man was overjoyed when he heard this, his eyes flashed with unconcealed excitement.

"It's true" Li Muran said: "To show sincerity, I can first pass on all the following parts of the Dharma phase to you. However, I also have questions about why the Dark Night Clan has lived here for generations, so why have you not saved the complete technique?"

"Oh," the old man sighed and said leisurely: "This clan is already declining. Hundreds of years ago, a civil strife that almost led to the extermination of the clan broke out, resulting in the loss of a large number of martial arts and magical powers, and gradually losing its inheritance."

"Civil strife? Why is this?" Li Muran asked.

The old man sighed: "At that time, the high-level cultivation of our clan was divided into two factions. One insisted on strictly adhering to the ancestral teachings and did not dare to leave the underground step; the other faction was even more aggressive and advocated joining the orcs and fighting for development space; the two factions each had their own opinions, and no one could convince the other. In the end, a war broke out."

"I guess the conservative side won the final victory?" Li Muran said. If this were not the case, the orcs on the ancient land should have known about the existence of the Dark Night clan.

The old man nodded and said, "Although he won, he did not use any open means. In short, neither side ended well. Since then, the regulations of this clan have become more stringent. Apart from performing tasks, the clan members are not allowed to leave the city one step."
