Chapter 146 White Jade Skull!
Facing everyone's gaze, Li Yu pondered for a moment and said, "A few days ago, I killed a ghost in a place."
"That ghost was a creature of this world when it was alive, and it had a lot of intelligence, but it suffered heavy injuries for some reason. It happened that Pindao was passing by and was attacked by this ghost. It wanted to devour flesh and blood to recover from its injuries, but I killed it instead."
"At that time, I saw that this ghost could speak human words, so I deliberately kept its soul, and then used secret techniques to search for its soul. Sure enough, I found some interesting things."
Without waiting for several people to ask, Li Yu simply told all the information he had thought about in advance:
"This world is called the Death World, the death of death!"
"This world seems to have experienced some catastrophe, which resulted in the destruction of most of the entire world, leaving only the lifeless and dilapidated appearance it has today, as well as many sneaky and very few surviving creatures remaining in the world."
"Everyone should have witnessed the previous disaster in the Digan Realm. In fact, Pindao learned from the memory of this ghost that a month ago, there were also some abnormalities in the Death Realm. And since then, the entire Death Realm has There are many places that are inexplicably connected to the Earthly Realm, and monks, mortals, monsters and other creatures often come to this realm through various means."
"So according to my speculation, we should be able to return to the Digan Realm, but how to go back still needs to be carefully searched for relevant clues in this world."
Su Meier and others were shocked by the information contained in Li Yu's words and fell silent. They didn't speak for a while, as if they were digesting the news, but their tense expressions softened somewhat.
Because they knew nothing about this world before, everyone could not see anything on the surface, but in fact they were somewhat uneasy and impatient. Over time, they would inevitably be affected by the ubiquitous demonic and evil energy in this world.
But now, the news Li Yu said may be concealed and somewhat false, but it at least gave them hope.
Qiu Fengyang's expression was not very good. He looked at Li Yu coldly and said directly: "How can you prove that what you said is true?"
He had just lost face in front of Hua Yunxuan and Su Meier. He Chen couldn't afford to offend him, and he didn't dare to offend him, so he instinctively vented his resentment on Li Yu, a casual cultivator.
Li Yu was not angry about this, he just smiled and said: "Who do you think you are? I am not a poor man, so why do I have to prove it to you?"
"You" Qiu Fengyang's eyes widened angrily, and he was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He has a distinguished status. Who dared to speak to him like this since he was a child.
"You are so brave. How dare you, a mere outsider cultivator, insult me like this? You deserve to die! You..."
Li Yu glanced at him, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.
What a fool!
If I say that I am a casual cultivator, you will believe me. If I say that I am your grandfather and your ancestor, wouldn’t you also believe me?
Li Yu had nothing to say to this kind of guy who bullied the weak and feared the strong. Now that Yunyin Sanren and the others were here, it was difficult to take action. He could only look for opportunities to kill him.
"Okay! We are all human beings, and we are in this foreign land. We should be in the same boat, why should we hurt the harmony over this trivial matter."
Qiu Fengyang gritted his teeth and wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Yunyin Sanren. He looked directly at Li Yu and said, "Besides what you just mentioned, does Mr. Qingyu have any other clues?"
"Of course there is."
Li Yu nodded and said: "Although this world is a declining and dead world, there are still many living creatures living there, even those sneaky creatures with high intelligence."
"Over the years, these creatures have gradually built some large and small cities, called dead cities, which are places used to live, trade with each other, or gather together to jointly defend against foreign enemies."
"As long as we find a dead city, it will naturally be easy to get a lot of useful intelligence and news."
He Chen looked at Li Yu. His eyes were bright, sharp, majestic, and domineering. His pupils had a hint of golden light. Those who looked at him would have burning eyes, as if looking directly at the sun.
Li Yu's eyes were calm, calm, pure, black and white, like a clear water, as calm as the surface of the water, but with a touch of depth, a kind of unfathomable flavor that could accommodate everything.
The two looked at each other for a moment. He Chen seemed to be convinced of Li Yu's words and said calmly: "Do you have any plans, fellow Taoist Qingyu?"
Li Yu showed a confident smile and said: "Pindao happened to know from the ghost's soul that there is a dead city about fifty thousand miles away. This dead city is also a large-scale city."
"So Pindao's suggestion is that we rush to the dead city to find out the news and find a way to leave this world."
Li Yu didn't lie. There was indeed a dead city fifty thousand miles away.
However, there will be some dangers in this 50,000-mile journey. If you can go with these people, you can share a lot of energy with Li Yu and solve a lot of troubles.
Moreover, he was also interested in making friends with He Chen.
"What do you think, Senior Yunyin?"
Li Yu looked at Yunyin Sanren with a smile.
After all, this person is also a golden elixir, so he still needs some necessary respect.
Yunyin Sanren looked at He Chen, then at Li Yu, and nodded slightly: "Okay."
Now that I finally got a clue, I have to give it a try.
And he didn't believe that Li Yu, a mere Taoist monk, would dare to deceive him. After all, everyone is from the same clan or hometown from the Digan Realm, and they are like grasshoppers tied to a rope.
Finding the way back to the Earthly World is beneficial to everyone.
"What do you two fellow Taoists think?"
Li Yu asked Hua Yunxuan and Su Mei'er again.
Hua Yunxuan sat cross-legged on the ground, with the moon-white flying sword lying across her knees. She sat upright, her eyebrows were like paintings, but there was a hint of sharpness between her eyebrows. She nodded gently without saying anything.
Su Mei'er glanced at Li Yu coquettishly, and said in a sweet voice: "I believe that Senior Brother Qingyu will not harm us, so Mei'er has no objection."
Li Yu glanced at her and said nothing. He was a little puzzled. Why did this female demon seem to be eyeing him?
Could it be that she saw that he had a pure cultivation and coveted his body?
However, from beginning to end, Li Yu did not look at Qiu Fengyang, let alone ask for his opinion.
This guy's background is worthy of attention, as for him himself. Hehe...
Of course, although several people agreed with his suggestion, Li Yu could be sure that except Qiu Fengyang, none of these people would completely believe what he said.
But it doesn't matter, as long as they can follow him, it's enough.
Seeing that he was ignored, Qiu Fengyang gritted his teeth, and his eyes turned a little more sinister when he looked at Li Yu.
As for Li Yu, he looked at him slowly, without any murderous intent, but somehow, everyone, including Yunyin Sanren, felt a hint of chill in their hearts.
Qiu Fengyang shrank suddenly in fear, but then he seemed to realize something, his face turned red, and he stared at Li Yu fiercely.
But Li Yu didn't look at him anymore.
Su Meier watched this scene with a smile, but didn't say anything.
After a short rest, everyone started to set off.
There were six people in the group, and the worst one was also a Taoist foundation, so his escape technique was naturally not slow.
However, to be on the safe side, everyone kept the speed at about half of their full strength.
This time, led by Li Yu, they flew for about seven days, and they were close to the dead city mentioned by Li Yu. The rest of the journey was not far, and it would only take one or two days to get there.
After seven days, with the mutual protection and cooperation of everyone, although some troubles were encountered, they were finally solved.
Of course, everyone was inevitably injured.
The most thrilling time was when everyone was flying over a group of mountains. Although they were very careful, they were still discovered by a large group of skeleton monsters below and attacked them.
Li Yu and others did not take these skeleton monsters seriously.
Although there were tens of thousands of these skeleton monsters, occupying an area of more than ten miles, they were essentially just some dry bones that were nourished by yin and demonic energy, and there was a trace of soul on them. They only knew to act on instinct.
In the eyes of Li Yu and others, this kind of ghost thing would break at the touch.
Even if there were more than a dozen skeleton monsters with deep cultivation, whose strength was comparable to the peak of the innate or even the foundation of Taoism, they could not stop everyone.
But just when Li Yu and others were about to go away, their movements seemed to alarm a terrible existence in the sea of skeleton monsters.
Then, several people watched with their own eyes as the skeleton monsters that were swarming and attacking everyone suddenly fell to their knees, and then an inconspicuous mountain split open, revealing a grayish-white, dull-colored, tattered-looking stone coffin.
After the stone coffin split open, a mountain-like and pillar-like black gas rushed into the sky, and even the clouds in the sky were directly blasted away.
In the black smoke, the cries of countless wronged souls and evil ghosts came out, which were shrill and miserable, and the shadows of many demons and evil ghosts were looming, making unpleasant laughter.
Then, in the stone coffin, a white jade skeleton sat up.
It was crystal clear like jade, and looked extremely perfect, round, and without any flaws.
But this white jade skeleton exuded a terrible aura like a deep abyss and a prison. It was obviously just a skeleton, but it gave people a feeling of majesty like an emperor, and its momentum was fascinating.
After it appeared, even the celestial phenomena within dozens of miles around changed in various ways.
Then, the white jade skeleton held a broken golden sword in his hand, and with a light wave, a terrifying golden sword energy that was more than ten miles long swept across the crowd.
It chased everyone as if it had a spirit.
Several people were so scared that their souls were about to flee, and each used their best means to resist.
Because everyone vaguely felt that this sword energy had firmly locked them.
Even if they temporarily avoided it, this sword energy would still follow the connection in the dark to kill them.
Therefore, no one dared to be careless.
In the end, it was Yunyin Sanren who finally used his means as a veteran Jindan. The mysterious light behind him soared into the sky, and a towering tree thousands of feet high stretched out, with green light reflecting half of the sky, blocking nearly half of the power.
Li Yu and others also used their own means.
Especially He Chen, who directly hit the red gold furnace on his head.
With Li Yu's eyes, he could see that this red gold furnace was an embryo of a magic weapon of excellent quality, with great power, and it blended perfectly with the aura of He Chen.
He Chen even displayed the prototype of his own innate great magical power - the Great Sun Across the Sky.
The magical power is based on the Red Gold Divine Furnace. After it is used, it is like a real sun, emitting a hot, explosive, vast, but light golden flame with a trace of strange vitality, which offsets 20% of the power of the sword energy.
As for Li Yu and others, they each used their own methods to jointly block the remaining 30%.
Afterwards, some people vomited blood, some had disordered true qi, some were seriously injured, and then they fled.
Fortunately, after the white jade skeleton swung the sword, it lay back in the coffin. The overly frightened people breathed a sigh of relief and hid in a place far away to take the opportunity to heal their wounds and recover from their injuries.
This time, the healing took three days.
After healing, everyone continued on their way.
After flying for a long time, Yunyin Sanren even found a few sparse and narrow paths.
After a careful inspection, everyone was pleasantly surprised.
Although these narrow paths were not clear, they were obviously walked by more than ten people. The footprints on them did not look like the work of a sneak. Even a pile of feces and gnawed bones were found not far away.
To some extent, this has proved what Li Yu said before, that there are indeed living things in this world.
Several people were overjoyed and hurried on their way.
Two hours later, everyone found many traces of living things.
In the next chapter, the sand sculpture player appeared...some things in the dead world will also be unveiled.
