Chapter 1224 The Situation of Human Race
Xiao Lin did not wander around the city, but searched around the inner city, and then walked directly into a teahouse called [Lingxiang Pavilion].
Entering the teahouse, Xiao Lin ignored the waiter who came up to him and went straight to the second floor. After sensing the abyss-like aura on Xiao Lin's body, the waiter swallowed the words he spoke.
Xiao Lin entered a box and disappeared.
"Brother Xiao is such a trustworthy person. He arrived on time." In the box, a woman in white robe was sipping tea and looking at the scenery outside the window comfortably. At this moment, she turned her head, revealing a stunningly beautiful face. His face was looking at Xiao Lin who walked in with a smile on his face.
"Fairy Bai, you're fine." Xiao Lin cupped his hands and replied.
"Brother Xiao was recruited by the Spirit Clan. It has been nearly a hundred years. I wonder if he can regain his freedom. If fellow Taoist is still bound, then Bai Ling may have to find another way." Bai Ling pointed to the seat opposite. , motioning Xiao Lin to sit down, she took a sip of tea and said with a chuckle.
Xiao Lin sat down unceremoniously and said with a smile: "Thanks to the fairy's auspicious words, Xiao is quite lucky. He has unlocked the recruitment seal and regained his freedom."
"Oh?" This time, Bai Ling showed an expression of surprise on her face. Although she had also ascended, she was also aware of all the misdeeds in the spirit race. Before the racial war broke out, the big clans usually recruited Many vassal race monks are used as cannon fodder, and the probability of these cannon fodders surviving is relatively low.
The price for obtaining freedom is usually extremely high, so many monks who are recruited usually explain their posthumous affairs before leaving the tribe, because they know that there is a high probability that they will not come back.
Bai Ling was a little surprised that Xiao Lin was able to regain his freedom. At the same time, he also had higher expectations for Xiao Lin's strength.
"Huh?" Bai Ling's expression suddenly changed, because she suddenly found that she could not sense Xiao Lin's realm at all. Based on her years of training experience, there was only one possibility for such a situation, and that was that Xiao Lin's realm had far exceeded to her.
"Brother Xiao, what's your realm?" Bai Ling asked with surprise on his face.
"Xiao also had better luck. He tried to attack the Void Refining Realm, but he succeeded by luck."
"Ah Then... congratulations to Brother Xiao, no, Senior Xiao." Bai Ling stuttered a little while speaking, with surprise and a little bit of loss in her eyes, thinking that it had been hundreds of years since she ascended to the spirit world. But she was still at the peak of the Divine Transformation, while Xiao Lin had advanced to the Void Refining Realm, which really made her a little unwilling.
"Fairy Bai, let's just talk about it as equals. Xiao is more used to it. This time I asked Xiao to come, but is it to go to that ancient ruins?" Xiao Lin didn't want to worry about regaining his freedom. After too much entanglement, he changed the subject and said with a smile.
"So, Bai Ling has reached a high level. Yes, that place will be opened soon." After Bai Ling was surprised, he didn't get too entangled and returned to a calm state.
"The fairy temporarily changed the location we agreed on to Dark Abyss City, but that ancient ruins are not far from here?" The two originally agreed on a location in Hongshan City, but he temporarily obtained Bai Ling's secret technique. Send a letter and change the address to Dark Abyss City.
"Brother Xiao is really a smart man. Bai Ling has figured out the specific location of the ancient ruins. It is a mysterious place between the Holy Bone Land and the North Heaven Territory. It is called the Heavenly Beast Mountain Range. This Heavenly Beast Mountain Range is perennial Covered by the poison, only every three hundred and sixty years, when the three stars gather together, will the poison in the mountains dissipate for a period of time, which is also the only time to enter it. Otherwise, under the poison, even Even the powerful monks in the Fusion Realm can’t resist it.”
"Fairy Bai once said that within that ruins, there existed the legendary Nine Spirit Qi. Is this true?" Xiao Lin asked with a solemn expression.
What Xiao Lin is most concerned about is the Nine Spirit Qi. This Nine Spirit Qi is the key to improving the quality of the magic weapon. As long as some Nine Spirit Qi can be collected, not only the Qingluan Ice and Thunder Sword, but also the first-order immortal treasure Soul Condensing Mirror can be used. Continue to improve quality.
Theoretically, through the nourishment of Jiulingqi, the magic weapon can be upgraded to the quality of the ninth-level immortal treasure. Of course, in fact, it is impossible to achieve it. For the fourth-level immortal treasure, Jiu Lingqi alone is not enough. It also requires many other materials, and each of them is extremely precious and rare. Otherwise, Master Wei Han would not have exhausted his entire life experience before refining it. A set of fourth-level immortal treasures has been released.
"There may be Jiu Ling Qi in a mysterious place in that ancient ruins. A manuscript obtained by Bai Ling clearly records this news. However, the person who wrote this manuscript only entered the The periphery of that mysterious place has not actually entered it, so it is only true or false, but it is still relatively credible since this person has recorded it so clearly. "
Xiao Lin nodded when he heard this. The 50% chance was enough for him to dare to try his luck. Even if Jiuling Qi is a powerful monk who has merged and transcended the tribulation stage, he may not be able to resist the temptation. After all, the immortal For cultivators, treasures can greatly enhance their own combat power.
"This time when we go to that ancient ruins, there are some things that we need to clarify with Brother Xiao in advance." After Bai Ling thought for a while, he seemed to have made up his mind and said.
Xiao Lin was stunned and said, "Fairy, it doesn't matter if you say so."
"When going to the ancient ruins this time, Bai Ling only invited Brother Xiao. However, the ancient ruins were only opened once in 360 years when the three stars gathered together. It is impossible to think that Bai Ling is the only one who knows this place. After all, that manuscript was accidentally auctioned by Bai Ling from an underground auction house, so there is no guarantee that there are still similar manuscripts out there."
Xiao Lin nodded when he heard this but did not speak.
"When we enter this ancient ruins, we should cooperate with each other to support each other. However, Brother Xiao has already advanced to the Void Refining Realm. In the end, Bai Ling took advantage. Bai Ling's first purpose of this trip is naturally to find the legendary super Teleportation array, but what if Bai Ling only takes... one-third of the treasures found during the exploration? "
Xiao Lin looked at Bai Ling's serious expression and couldn't help but smile. He finally understood Bai Ling's plan. Naturally, he had to agree on the terms first, otherwise if any rare treasures were found in the ruins, With his current strength, it would be effortless to take it as his own.
Bai Ling's words were, on the one hand, a test, and on the other hand, he wanted to confess his true feelings to himself, lest he have the intention of killing someone and seizing the treasure.
"Fairy Bai is worrying too much. This trip to explore the secrets was originally initiated by the fairy. Xiao was also invited to go with him. Xiao is the one who got the advantage. So, no matter what the treasures obtained from exploring the ruins, Whatever it is, we will share it equally, fairy, do you think so?" Xiao Lin said with a smile. He also did this to dispel Bai Ling's doubts.
Bai Ling was very grateful when he saw Xiao Lin being so generous. He nodded and said, "Just follow what Brother Xiao said, but Brother Xiao will give priority to picking half, and Bai Ling will take the rest. The condition is that Brother Xiao must agree no matter what, otherwise Bai Ling would rather cancel this exploration trip. "
Xiao Lin knew that this was Bai Ling's gesture of goodwill to him, and at the same time, he also said that this woman was cautious and well-founded in her advances and retreats, which could be said to be a shrewd mind.
Xiao Lin sighed softly, nodded and said, "Just follow what the fairy said."
After the two chatted for a while, Xiao Lin said goodbye and left. Of course, the two also agreed on a departure date, which was set to meet at the East City Gate today, a hundred days later.
After Xiao Lin left [Lingxiang Pavilion], he wandered around the inner city. Before he came to Dark Abyss City, he had heard that there were many underground auction houses here, and he really wanted to see them.
"Fellow Taoist, please stay." Xiao Lin suddenly called out. A strong man in his thirties who was walking in front stopped when he heard the words, turned his head, and frowned slightly.
But soon his expression changed, and a smile appeared on his face: "Senior...are you calling me?"
"Exactly." Xiao Lin smiled and waved.
The thirty-year-old man immediately came to Xiao Lin respectfully. He bowed and saluted before saying, "Senior, what are your orders?"
"Are you a human?"
Xiao Lin's words made the strong man stunned for a moment, as if he didn't understand the meaning of Xiao Lin's words: "This junior is indeed a human race?"
"The North Sky Broken Realm is far away from the North Sky Territory. Even if we use the cross-domain teleportation array, it will probably take a long time to reach here. I wonder...you guys?"
"So the senior is from the Northern Sky Broken Realm?" Hearing this, the strong man suddenly came to his senses.
He smiled and said: "Senior may not know too much about the situation of the human race in the Northern Heaven Territory. Why don't we move to my humble home and let the junior explain it to the senior in detail."
Xiao Lin nodded in surprise. He did not expect that this person would still settle down in Dark Abyss City. He nodded and made a gesture of leading the way.
"Senior, please follow me."
The strong man led Xiao Lin through the streets of the inner city. At the junction of the inner city and the outer city, he turned into a house. After walking for about a meal, Xiao Lin followed the strong man and walked into a house. It's not a small house.
Entering the house, I found that the house was clean and tidy. There was a fish pond dug near the left side, with dozens of goldfish swimming in it.
As soon as he entered the house, Xiao Lin felt the power of divine consciousness sweeping over him.
Xiao Lin remained calm, and the power of his spiritual consciousness circulated, leaving the power of his spiritual consciousness with nowhere to work. Then a delicate voice sounded from inside the house: "My husband is back."
"Madam, hurry up and prepare some tea. We have distinguished guests coming."
"Dignified guest?"
With the sound of "Zhiya", the door opened, and a young woman about thirty years old walked out. The young woman was of average appearance, but had fair skin, a straight face, and a somewhat virtuous appearance. When she saw Xiao Lin, her pretty face showed surprise. expression.
She had just sensed someone outside and immediately sent out her consciousness, but she only noticed that her husband had turned around, but she had not "seen" anyone else. Now that she saw Xiao Lin, she was suddenly surprised.
But soon she came to her senses, came to Xiao Lin, and bowed Yingying: "Junior Qi Yuhuan pays homage to senior."
"No need to be polite, please get up." Xiao Lin stretched out his hand to help without any pretense, and said with a smile.
Xiao Lin was soon invited to sit down in the living room. After pouring tea for Xiao Lin, the strong man said, "My junior's name is Wu Tie. I wonder what your senior's surname is?"
"My surname is Xiao."
"It turns out to be Senior Xiao. What Senior asked before is very simple. Has Senior ever heard of the Demon Realm?"
"Demon Realm?" Xiao Lin shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.
"The Demon Realm is located in the west of the Holy Moon Continent. It is the Holy Land of the Demonic Way. Its geographical scope is comparable to that of the Northern Territory. People in the Demon Realm, regardless of race, believe that anyone can become a demon. According to legend, there are ten holy masters in the Demon Realm. , each one is a top-level monk in the Mahayana stage, and it is they who support the entire Demon Realm."
"Does such a place exist?" Xiao Lin found that his understanding of the Holy Moon Continent was still too short-sighted.
"Presumably, seniors have seen people from the Buddhist sect in Dark Abyss City. Not far from the Demonic Realm, there is a Buddhist altar region, in which countless Buddhist kingdoms have been established. The people of these Buddhist kingdoms are just like the people of the Demonic Realm, regardless of race. Just focusing on fate, the seven great Buddhas are all people with profound Buddha Dharma, and there are also many Dharma protectors. Their strength is comparable to that of the Demon Realm. However, these two places are in the far west of the Holy Moon Continent, while in the Demon Realm and In the northeast of the Buddhist altar area, there is a land called the "Five Sacred Mountains", which covers millions of miles. Many human races live there. The younger couple were also born there. After coming out in their early years, they have been wandering in this dark abyss. The city is near."
"Five Sacred Mountains?"
"Yes, the Five Sacred Mountains are somewhat remote and have relatively poor resources. In fact, in this Holy Moon Continent, there are not many places where humans gather, but there are not a few human monks traveling on the road, such as the Demon Realm and the Buddhist Altar Realm. Among the demonic monks and Buddhist monks, there are also many people from our human race.”
After hearing this, Xiao Lin finally understood.
It seems that the human race is very scattered on this continent. The human race in the Northern Sky Broken Realm and the Five Sacred Mountains may just be a part of the human race.
"Actually, millions of years ago, our human race was still a super-rich clan in the Holy Moon Continent. Later, I heard that a racial war broke out that affected the entire Holy Moon Continent. In that battle, our human race's Mahayana elders For some unknown reason, most of the ancestors died. This led to the decline of our human race, and was gradually cannibalized by the Bone Clan and the Spirit Clan, reducing us to where we are now. Even the Spirit Clan and Bone Clan at that time were just vassals of our human race. It’s just race.”
When Wu Tie said this, he couldn't help but sigh slightly, with a somewhat regretful expression on his face.
Xiao Lin was also horrified by the intricate racial relations on the Holy Moon Continent. He had heard about it when he was in the Beitian Broken Realm. The human race had been glorious in the past, and even became a super-rich clan on the Holy Moon Continent. But now it is living in a corner and lingering, which is really sad.
Through Wu Tie's explanation, Xiao Lin also roughly understood why he actually saw the disciples of the Buddha Sect in Dark Abyss City. It seems that the Buddha Sect has not disappeared in this spiritual world, but is very powerful, even stronger than The human race is much stronger.
At the same time, Xiao Lin had a thought in his mind. Could it be that the avatar of the holy concubine who almost killed him when he was in the mortal world was actually from the Demon Realm? If you are really from the Demon Realm, you should be careful if you enter the Demon Realm in the future.
