Chapter 183 Demonic Puppet and Heavenly Demon Pearl
It is no exaggeration to say that in these long years, the ruins have been turned over by countless people, and it is basically impossible to leave anything useful.
However, this time, Xu Changjun followed the mark indicated by the map and explored the ruins in another place.
Maybe there will be great gains.
After walking for about half a day, Xu Changjun stopped. After many twists and turns, he arrived at the destination.
After a long time, the remaining ruins no longer exist. Many places are occupied by animals or plants and become their homes.
"It should be here!"
Xu Changjun looked around and found that there was nothing to see here. It seemed more like a normal wilderness.
Perhaps it was because of this that this area was able to be preserved intact.
Xu Changjun looked at a hill not far away. The hill was covered with dense vegetation and there was not much difference.
"The ruins should be inside the hill."
Relying on the map mark, Xu Changjun was very sure that the ruins on the map were inside the hill in front of him.
But what secrets are hidden in it, that is unknown.
He did not stop at all, and his figure came to the hill. He stood on the mountain, and the majestic spiritual power covered the hill like a storm.
With its powerful spiritual power, it is completely possible to cover the hill. Not long after, he felt that there was something different about the stone wall.
In an instant, Xu Changjun appeared there. He lightly touched a stone wall with his right hand, and suddenly a surge of magic power surged.
The surrounding mountains moved, and the pushed stone wall made a "booming" sound.
Soon, a small cave slowly appeared in front of him, and the cave was only large enough for one person to pass through.
"Sure enough, it's here..."
"Here is a passage!"
Xu Changjun did not delay and slowly walked into the darkness.
"Whether it is the Blood Demon Godson or the Heaven-Swallowing Hand Tan Heng, the place they are looking for in the end is here!"
As he stepped into it, Xu Changjun immediately felt an ancient magic aura floating in the air.
Although it had long since dissipated to only a faint trace, Xu Changjun knew that the place he came to this time was the ruins marked on the map.
Thinking of this, Xu Changjun could not help but speed up his pace.
Of course, he was very careful along the way, and his spiritual power penetrated to detect all dangers.
But beyond his expectations, it was flat and there was no crisis.
Not long after, a huge outline gradually appeared in Xu Changjun's vision in the darkness.
He snapped his fingers lightly with his right hand, and suddenly, a silver light flashed, and a huge and glorious underground palace appeared in front of him.
This place has never been destroyed. Although it has been thousands or tens of thousands of years, it still maintains its original appearance.
Xu Changjun noticed that the buildings in the underground palace are indeed not like those popular in the cultivation world today. They have some ancient charm, are strange and even a little hideous and rough, and are more like a place for sacrifice.
Wild and slightly dull.
In front of him, a straight passage extends to the depths of the underground palace.
On both sides, demon sculptures with bared fangs and claws, showing crazy breath, appeared in rows in the underground palace.
Along the way, Xu Changjun kept walking. Although he was skilled and bold, he was actually more careful. He kept penetrating his soul and spirit along the way, and detected any changes that might occur in the outside world, fearing that the ruins might hide dangers.
But perhaps because it was buried for too long, the ruins of this palace gave people a gloomy feeling, but there was no danger.
The only weird thing was that the tall demon sculptures on both sides showed a bit of evil and coldness under the shining silver light.
Along with the footsteps, they walked all the way to the end.
In front of Xu Changjun, a platform similar to an altar appeared, and an eye was embedded on the platform.
The cold light shot out from the eye, giving people a sense of coldness, as if the eye was alive, which made people a little chilly.
"This thing? It is the core of the sacrifice of this underground palace..."
Looking at the flashing gem like an eye, Xu Changjun manipulated the flying sword without hesitation and picked it off.
But there is still no change.
It seems that all the arrangements have been destroyed in the passage of time for eternity.
"Heavenly Demon Pearl!!"
When the pearl was in hand, a stream of information immediately flooded into Xu Changjun's mind, and his eyes immediately widened, with a hint of shock, a hint of surprise, and a hint of disbelief.
It is said that this Heavenly Demon Pearl is a treasure that only the core of the ancient Heavenly Demon Sect has. It is a treasure that the great demons have condensed into a treasure based on many original demonic energy and added the unique techniques of the ancient Heavenly Demon Sect.
For the demon cultivators, this Heavenly Demon Pearl is like a pill, which can be directly refined into the body to give birth to a second golden pill.
A demon cultivator has two golden pills stored and two sources of demonic energy. His combat power is definitely not a simple one plus one. Whether it is strength or practice, it is definitely doubled.
It is no exaggeration to say that if the demon cultivators of Qitianfu now know that Xu Changjun has an intact Heavenly Demon Pearl in his hands, it will definitely attract a lot of covetousness.
Even those old antiques will be dispatched.
After all, precious treasures like the Heavenly Demon Pearl have long been lost, and the one in Xu Changjun's hand may be the last one in the world.
However, Xu Changjun noticed that when he took the Heavenly Demon Pearl out of it, the altar trembled slightly, and this slight tremor extended downwards and spread to the demon sculptures on both sides.
In an instant, the originally lifeless sculptures slowly turned their heads like living people, and their eyes all fell on Xu Changjun.
Accompanied by a soft crisp sound, the stone skin on the sculptures actually peeled off, revealing dark scales.
Roar!
The demon statues suddenly came back to life, and each demon burst out with amazing demonic energy. The surging breath surged in the ruins, giving people a feeling of the return of demons.
"I said, there can't be no defense in the altar ruins left by the ancient Heavenly Demon Sect!"
"Perhaps other restrictions have been damaged or invalidated over the long years, but the demon puppet sealed in the stone can still be activated because of external protection..."
After putting away the Heavenly Demon Pearl, Xu Changjun slowly turned his head and looked at the demons that were constantly reviving on both sides, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
The process of getting the Heavenly Demon Pearl this time was too smooth, as if there were no obstacles.
The demon sculptures that have been resurrected now have made Xu Changjun feel relieved.
If there was no such scene, he would probably be uneasy in his heart, not knowing where the ancient Heavenly Demon Sect had left a back-up.
"Kill!"
With Xu Changjun's order, the Golden Light Ten Thousand Swords Gourd appeared in the air. As the gourd mouth swallowed and spit out, countless golden sword balls emerged from the body, turning into bright sword energy, flashing continuously in the depths of the dark underground palace.
In an instant, the harsh sound of air explosions and the roars of various demons, the rumbling vibrations, resounded in the empty ruins.
After just a cup of tea, the entire dark altar ruins returned to silence.
Xu Changjun snapped his fingers, and a round of silver moonlight hung in the air again, and the broken bodies of demons were lying under his feet.
It was just surprising that no flesh and blood were found in these demon remains.
"The method of the ancient demon sect is indeed extremely strange, completely different from the current method!"
Xu Changjun checked it slightly and found that these revived demons were not real life forms, but were refined by puppetry.
The ancient demon sect used some terrible taboo method to inject the collected residual souls into the puppet body to create a loyal guard.
And their mission is to protect the altar where the demon beads are stored.
It's a pity that the ancient demon sect fell too quickly that year, and there was no time to deal with these altar matters.
Now it is Xu Changjun's turn.
After observing these puppets for a while, Xu Changjun gave up the research because he found that he could not copy them with his ability.
So, after getting the Heavenly Demon Pearl, he left this place directly.
...
When Xu Changjun returned to the human world again, the army of Nanli Kingdom had already set out to fight against the Yuan Dynasty.
With their incomparable fighting power, they directly occupied a large amount of land in the Yuan Dynasty, destroyed several armies of the Yuan Dynasty court, and covered the entire Yuan Dynasty with overwhelming momentum.
At the beginning, Xu Changjun directly killed the monks of the Yuan Dynasty Court Worship Hall and cut off their last hope. Therefore, under the attack of a large number of strong men, the entire Yuan Dynasty was on the verge of collapse.
The Yuan Dynasty is the central orthodoxy of this human world. It has been known as Shenzhou since ancient times. As long as it is occupied, the entire human world will be under control.
Xu Changjun was very satisfied with the invasion presided over by the Thunder Ancestor Temple. He watched the process of the war without any excessive interference.
After he explained a few words, he hurried to the dragon vein of Nanli Kingdom.
…
The first emperor of the world who unified the world was called Zulong. His body was buried in the dragon vein of Qinling Mountains. After thousands of years, he absorbed the essence of the dragon vein.
The Yuan Dynasty court used blood sacrifice to guide the will of the evil demons from outside the domain, wanting to descend on the corpse of Zulong Emperor, so as to create a terrifying monster that was almost immortal.
After a series of hard battles, Xu Changjun finally took it down and brought it back to Nanli Kingdom. He used the 108 Thunder Ancestor Halls as a basis, mobilized the power of thunder from heaven and earth, and used the terrifying power of thunder to directly destroy the will of the evil demons from outside the domain, and preserved the immortal and terrifying body.
"Boom!"
After Xu Changjun came to the dragon vein, he immediately felt that the Zulong Emperor corpse in the center was swallowing the energy in the dragon vein, as if it would wake up at any time.
In the surging momentum, the strength of Zulong Emperor corpse was constantly recovering.
At first, when struck by thunder, the Ancestral Dragon Corpse consumed a lot of its original power, and its aura was greatly weakened. Now that it has returned to the dragon vein, it has no sense of unfamiliarity with the energy of the dragon vein, and is constantly devouring and absorbing it.
Xu Changjun stood aside and saw with his own eyes that the body of the Ancestral Dragon Corpse floated in the air, and the surging power produced a turbulent impact storm. Waves of ripples were spreading in all directions with it as the center.
In an instant, the space storm spread rapidly, and the aura like a tide spread outward little by little.
"With the level that the Ancestral Dragon Corpse has reached, it has at least entered the threshold of the Nascent Soul Stage, and it is even more terrifying!"
At that time, Xu Changjun attacked the corpse of the Ancestral Dragon Emperor with all his strength, and he used all his means. It was much more difficult than dealing with the Son of God of the Blood Demon Palace.
Moreover, during the battle, the will from the evil demon from outside the domain continued to rise, surging towards a higher level of the Nascent Soul.
It is no exaggeration to say that if Xu Changjun had not tried his best to stop it, using seven three-inch corpse nails and special methods to suppress the source of the demonic energy contained in it, it would probably be impossible to stop this terrifying existence that has already been possessed by the devil.
If it is allowed to grow, then the entire human world will fall into a terrible catastrophe, a catastrophe that even Xu Changjun cannot stop.
Although Xu Changjun is very confident in his own strength, he does not think that he is weaker than other strong men of the same level, but when he faces the corpse of the Ancestral Dragon Emperor who has not yet entered the Nascent Soul level, it is definitely beyond his ability.
It can only be said that even Xu Changjun has no way.
Once the will of the evil demon from outside the domain is completely promoted to the Nascent Soul level, Xu Changjun will definitely run as far as possible and dare not approach this human world.
If that were the case, Xu Changjun would be extremely unwilling, after all, it took so many years to control the human world and cultivate a large number of devout believers.
It would definitely not be so easy to find another human world.
Because many small worlds have long been controlled by the huge forces in the cultivation world, Xu Changjun has no confidence in snatching these territories from them.
...
"Since you are so greedy, then I will help you!"
Xu Changjun looked at the corpse of the Ancestral Dragon Emperor who was devouring the energy essence contained in the dragon vein, and a gleam of light burst out in his eyes.
For him, even if all the energy of the dragon vein was absorbed by the corpse of the Ancestral Dragon Emperor, Xu Changjun would not worry at all.
As he controlled the Nanli Kingdom and occupied the entire human world step by step, this dragon vein was greatly enhanced due to the blessing of luck, so that the limit contained in it began to slowly exceed the Great Yuan Dynasty.
"Divide the mountains and settle the seas! Stabilize the luck! The dragon veins are forever solid! The source of the Tao flows!"
As Xu Changjun's hands continued to change various spells in the void, the finger gestures were constantly changing, and finally fell on this space.
Then, the luck and dragon veins that were originally ethereal and seemed to have no substance underwent amazing changes in Xu Changjun's hands.
"Roar!"
Just as Xu Changjun was pinching the finger gestures, a dragon roar sounded out of thin air in the whole space.
The majestic and domineering voice echoed on the dragon veins. If you look closely, you can faintly see a shadowy dragon shadow floating in the space in the cold dragon veins.
