Chapter 1616 Black Sea
A piece of black mist persists for a long time, as if it has lasted forever.
The sound of "wow" is heard endlessly, and the moist and salty sea breeze blows over the ears, bringing a bit of coolness.
Nie Xin suddenly woke up.
She moved her body, and after a long time she felt her true energy begin to flow. She put her hands on the ground and stood up with difficulty.
Surrounded by a boundless sea, the color of the water is as black as ink. At this time, she is on the beach at the seaside. The sand is also dyed like ink, giving people a gloomy and depressing feeling.
There is a person sitting on the beach.
He was dressed in ink, his long hair moved in the wind, and he had a natural aura from heaven and earth.
Nie Xin frowned and tried her best to recall the scene that happened before. Just when they were about to escape from the seal of Tianxuan Mountain, she and Ye Chunyang were swept underground by the strange ink-colored glow.
"What...is this place? Are we trapped in the barrier of Tianxuan Mountain?"
Nie Xin looked at the figure in front of him and asked.
"I don't know, but there is no aura of sealing barrier here." Ye Chunyang shook his head slightly.
Nie Xin used his skills to restore some of his energy, and then walked to Ye Chunyang's side.
After a long silence, she said softly: "You...actually don't have to save me."
Ye Chunyang looked at her but said nothing.
After staring at the black sea ahead for a while, he stood up and said, "This place is a bit weird. Let's find a way to leave first."
Nie Xin suppressed the words in her heart.
She raised her head, looked around, and asked, "Did you find anything?"
Ye Chunyang's face showed deep thought.
After a moment, he said: "I just made a rough inspection and found nothing unusual so far, but this place must be some kind of independent space."
After saying this, he turned around and walked towards the beach.
Ye Chunyang has a physical body at the stage of becoming a god, and those strange black rays of light did not hurt him. After arriving here, he explored a small area and found that although this place was very different from the outside world, there was spiritual energy present.
Since there is spiritual energy, there will be a way out.
Nie Xin hurriedly followed.
Outside the black beach, there is a towering stone mountain with strange black rocks standing on it. Ye Chunyang was flying at low altitude while using his spiritual consciousness to investigate.
But after sensing it for a long time, he didn't feel any breath of living things.
Ye Chunyang couldn't help but look a little gloomy.
The black sea was endless and extremely vast. It was impossible for them to cross it. They could only find it along the land. But it was dead quiet now, and it might not be easy to find a way out.
Nie Xin hesitated for a moment, then waved his jade hand gently, and a layer of black and white light emitted from his white wrist, spreading out in all directions.
Several strange "hissing" sounds were heard, and densely packed dark green flying insects appeared. After gathering in the air for a while, they immediately flew everywhere and disappeared without a trace.
"We don't know what the situation is here yet. It would be more convenient to use earth poison to investigate." Nie Xin said.
Ye Chunyang nodded, naturally having no objection to this.
So the two of them continued walking for more than ten miles.
But then they were surprised to find that not only was the Black Sea behind them vast and traceless, but the rocky mountain was also undulating with no end in sight.
And no matter how long the flight lasts, the scene in front of you is generally the same. Except for the dark and strange rocks, there is nothing else, which makes people feel like they are standing still.
"Um?"
Suddenly, Nie Xin paused, stretched out his hand to summon an Earth Gu, his beautiful eyes flickered, as if he was sensing something.
After a while, the light in her eyes disappeared and she said to Ye Chunyang: "We have discovered something about this earth Gu. Should we go and have a look."
Ye Chunyang's expression changed and he said, "Let's go."
Nie Xin pointed slightly, and a magic formula penetrated into the ground Gu. The ground Gu spread its wings, made two low sounds of "buzzing", then turned around and flew forward quickly.
When the two of them saw this, they immediately took up the escape light and caught up with him.
The flight didn't last long. After escaping for more than ten miles, the ground Gu in front suddenly hovered at low altitude for a few times, and then fell towards a mountain col next to the sea below.
A trace of surprise flashed across Ye Chunyang's face, but without stopping, he and Nie Xin flew down.
This seaside mountain col doesn't look big from a distance, but when you get closer, you find that it's actually quite big. After settling down, you can see the earth worm wandering around a white thing, as if conveying a message to Nie Xin. look.
The two looked at each other, frowned slightly, and walked towards this thing.
Due to the surrounding black stone barriers, they could not see clearly from a distance. When they actually discovered this object, their expressions changed.
"Is this... the skeleton of a monster?"
Nie Xin said in surprise.
In front of him was a giant skeleton. It didn't look like a human being, but rather like some kind of giant monster. It was more than ten feet long and had several sharp fangs growing out from under its jawbone, sending out a bone-chilling chill.
"Not only are there monsters, there are also humans."
Ye Chunyang glanced at the skeleton of the giant beast, looked away and said slowly.
Nie Xin followed his gaze and saw that not far from the skeleton of the giant beast, there were some broken remains scattered. Although they were incomplete, they could be distinguished from the shape of human bones, and there were more than one.
"There are so many human and monster skeletons here. It seems that besides us, there are people who have been here before." Nie Xin took a deep breath and said, "Could it be that... they were also accidentally involved in this place?"
Ye Chunyang walked towards these skeletons.
He didn't know whether these people were swept here by the strange black clouds like them, but it was obvious that none of these people could get out alive.
"There seem to be some buildings ahead." At this moment, Nie Xin pointed forward and said.
"Let's go and have a look."
Ye Chunyang replied and immediately rushed to where Nie Xin pointed.
Rows of stone houses, made of black stone, are not many in number, but connected together and stand neatly.
Ye Chunyang's mind was shrouded, but his brows frowned.
These stone houses were obviously built by humans, but no one was seen, and there was no breath of living people even within a radius of ten miles.
"Are all the people inside dead?" Nie Xin asked in confusion.
Ye Chunyang pondered for a while and said, "Let's check first to see if there are any other discoveries."
After that, he walked towards the stone houses.
Nie Xin hesitated a little, but still followed Ye Chunyang.
These stone houses are different from the houses inhabited by humans today in terms of architectural style. They seem to be a little ancient and obviously built a long time ago.
Pushing open the door, a thick cloud of dust filled the air, and the roof was entangled with dense spider webs, which showed that no one had lived in it for a long time and it had long been abandoned.
Ye Chunyang waved his sleeves, and the scene in front of him became clear immediately.
The room was not big, with only a stone table, a few stone benches, a stone bed, and no bowls, chopsticks, or tea sets.
But there was something that caught Ye Chunyang's attention.
There was an alchemy furnace next to the stone bed.
It was not of high grade and made of ordinary materials. It would not attract attention anywhere, but it appeared in this old stone house at this moment, proving that the person who lived here was not a mortal.
"It seems that the owner of this stone house should be the skeletons outside."
Ye Chunyang looked around, shook his head and whispered.
"It's a pity that there are no living people here, otherwise we could ask for some information." Nie Xin sighed.
They had no idea about this strange place, and they didn't even know if they were still in Tianxuan Mountain at this time.
At least, judging from the endless black sea, this place is very likely not within the land range of Zhongzhou.
"That may not be the case."
As he was talking, a voice suddenly came over.
Nie Xin's heart trembled, and almost at the same time, eighty-one flying swords in Ye Chunyang's body surged, and with a cold face, he slashed wildly towards a certain place.
"Bang bang" sounded, and a strange cry came from the place where the sword array fell, and then a blue light emerged, and a shield with shining runes appeared in the air, resisting Ye Chunyang's sword array to kill.
But almost in an instant, the shield was pierced by the swords and made into dense holes, and it was broken into powder and exploded, and then a figure appeared inside.
It seemed that he didn't expect that his defense would be penetrated by Ye Chunyang's attack. The figure was stunned for a moment, and when he saw the sword array slashing at him without stopping, he retreated in fear and shouted: "Daoyou, stop, I have no ill intentions!"
Ye Chunyang paused, but did not retract his sword, but hung it over the head of the figure, with lightning flashing, as if he was ready to take his life at any time.
At this time, the two saw clearly that the figure was a man in a white robe, about thirty years old.
This person's cultivation was perfect in the Spiritual Transformation Realm, but he looked extremely strange. He was half a head shorter than the average person, and there were two ghost-headed swords on his back that were more than half a head taller than him. He was looking at them with a lingering fear.
"Who are you and why are you here?" Ye Chunyang said coldly.
"Don't worry, fellow Taoist, I have absolutely no ill intentions. I know you have many doubts about this place, but before answering fellow Taoist's questions, can you put away this deadly sword formation first?" The man in white robe looked up at the sky with fear.
Although the shield he just sacrificed was not his last resort, it was also a treasure of extraordinary grade. It was actually broken by the opponent's sword, which shows how powerful his magical power is.
Ye Chunyang snorted lightly, and the eighty-one flying swords turned into flowing light and disappeared into his body.
Although this person's cultivation was not low, it was easy to take him down. Ye Chunyang was not worried that he would play any tricks.
However, he had just detected the surroundings and there was no breath of living people. Where did this person come from?
Seeing the sword array disappear, the white-robed man breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Ye Chunyang and the other two with a strange look, and said: "From the looks of you two, you have just been swept here, right? Where are you cultivators from?"
"Tianxuan Mountain." Ye Chunyang said.
"Tianxuan Mountain?" The white-robed man seemed to be thinking about it, and then shook his head unexpectedly, "What is that place? I haven't heard of it."
Ye Chunyang and Nie Xin were both surprised.
All the cultivators in Zhongzhou don't know about Tianxuan Mountain, and there are even rumors about it in the Northern Territory, but this man looks like he doesn't know anything about it, which makes people puzzled.
"What exactly is this place?" Ye Chunyang asked.
"Black Sea." The white-robed man uttered two words decisively, and then said: "Everyone who comes here, don't even think about getting out again."
