Chapter 214: War in the Spiritual World
The spiritual energy was turbulent like a tide. Even someone like Shi Yan, who was used to seeing big scenes, felt terrified.
Turbulent streams of spiritual energy, like piranhas, rushed towards the protective wall.
Due to the huge range of the protective wall, the frequency of attacks at the same time is also very high, with tens of thousands of collisions per second. Fortunately, the impact force is relatively dispersed and not concentrated at one point. The force is balanced, which stabilizes the protective wall.
Tens of thousands of spiritual energy turbulences converged together to form a thick gray fog.
Dongqi gritted his teeth and held on. As long as they could get through this area, everyone would be safe.
Shi Yan looked at Dong Qi worriedly, "Dong Qi, can you hold on?"
Dong Qi gritted his teeth and said with a click of his tongue, laughing wildly: "Master, am I, Dong Qi, so unbearable in your eyes? This little thing can't faze me, otherwise how could I have fought with the scoundrel for so many years? Just rest assured!"
"Thank you for your hard work!" Since Dongqi said so, Shi Yan had nothing to say. He turned around and shouted to everyone, "Summon all the spirit beasts to protect yourself. We need to speed up our pace."
Shi Yan walked quickly forward while taking out the map to examine it carefully. To the north of Yunshen Canyon, there was a normal canyon, which was the destination of his trip, and the place recorded in the information brought by You Qingmeng.
However, Shi Yan was sweating profusely as he stared at the map. That canyon was hundreds of miles away from where he was. At the current speed and situation, he might not be able to hold on before he even gets there.
Although Dongqi said it easily, Shi Yan knew that he was very reluctant now. Don't forget that the contract between Shi Yan and Dongqi is a mandatory contract. How could Shi Yan not know what Dongqi was thinking?
"No, we can't take this road!" Shi Yan suddenly realized that he was in the center of the turbulent spiritual energy area in Yunshen Canyon, but this turbulent spiritual energy area was not a regular circle, but an irregular shape.
Suddenly, he found that the terrain on the east side of the center where he and his group were located was flat. Although there were gullies and canyons, it was much flatter than the other three sides. And the most important point was that the spiritual energy turbulence area on the east side was weaker than the other three sides. The other three sides were two or three hundred miles long, while the east side was only about a hundred miles long. According to estimates, if the speed was fast enough, they should be able to rush out of the spiritual energy turbulence before Dongqi could bear it!
"Okay! This is the road!" Shi Yan shouted excitedly, "Dongqi, let's go east!"
Dongqi nodded, stabilized his energy, flew to the east, and still walked in the front.
Although the gray fog was sometimes thin and sometimes thick, everyone still found some differences. As they continued to move forward, the gray fog around them gradually became thicker, but it was a medium-term change.
Everyone was worried, not knowing what was ahead, whether it was auspicious or ominous, good or bad. Xu Zuoxian also knew that it was better to be quiet in this situation, so he followed the team in silence.
After advancing for an hour, at the current marching speed they had only traveled about fifty miles. The surrounding gray fog was becoming thicker and impacts and collisions were still occurring, but nothing unexpected happened.
However, as the number of spiritual energy turbulences increased, the gray fog became thicker, forming a sticky liquid, which increased the resistance and hindered people's progress.
On the way, one could vaguely see white bones lying on the ground, and the number was increasing. In the end, the road under one's feet was paved with bones.
A chill ran up my spine.
"Not good." Shi Yan thought to himself that it was not good. Almost the entire field of vision was filled with dense spiritual energy turbulence, and under his feet were dead bones. If he didn't think of a solution, he was afraid that everyone would be trapped alive in this layer of "slime" formed by this spiritual energy turbulence, and being buried alive would be the only outcome. Shi Yan thought to himself that it was a mistake. The bones under his feet should be the same as himself. He knew that the area of spiritual energy turbulence on the east side was relatively weak, so he moved towards this side. Who knew that although this side was weak, it was thicker, as if all the spiritual energy turbulence in the other three sides were added together to form such a scale. In terms of distance, this side is the shortest, but in terms of quantity, this side is undoubtedly the most, so much more that even the other three sides combined!
A black cloud was spreading towards this side from the horizon at an alarming speed.
This scene was extremely shocking! If the gray fog was a concentration of spiritual energy turbulence, then what was this? It could be considered a concentration of gray fog that covered the sky and the earth. Everyone was stunned, and even some villagers inside the protective wall had a brief moment of unconsciousness. The walking formation inside the protective wall immediately became a little chaotic.
"Oh no, we've only walked halfway, I don't know if we can make it out!" Shi Yan had already noticed a few drops of sweat on Dong Qi's forehead, and his usually playful expression had begun to become serious. It was not optimistic!
"Turn back?" Shi Yan thought, "No, absolutely not. We have already walked fifty miles. If we turn back, plus the distance between those areas, although the pressure will be much less, the distance is too long. I am afraid that I will be finished before I even get halfway."
Shi Yan opened the map again. The information on the map was still the same, but Shi Yan could only rely on this map at the moment.
"Fifty miles. If we calculate it in detail, we should have traveled more than halfway!" Shi Yan wiped the sweat from the tip of his nose and finally confirmed it. "Keep going!"
It was impossible to turn back, so we could only keep going! There was still a glimmer of hope if we continued to move forward, but if we did nothing, we would be trapped to death.
"Damn it, who said this road is just a little difficult? But there is no problem getting through. If I can go back alive, I will definitely catch the guy who said this and whip his corpse!" Shi Yan thought fiercely.
The endless black cloud formed by the turbulent flow of spiritual energy was getting closer and closer. A dull whirring sound came from the sky. The air was already filled with a tense atmosphere, and this whirring sound made people feel as if a stone was pressing on their chests.
At this time, Shi Yan discovered an interesting phenomenon. Although the turbulent spiritual energy was divided into lines shaped like fish, it can be seen from their attack trajectories that the routes of the turbulent spiritual energy attacking a point are exactly the same!
I don’t know if this is an illusion, but what I saw when I was in a daze just now was indeed like this.
To prove this point, Shi Yan looked at other attacked points. Sure enough, although the attack speed was very fast, the turbulent spiritual energy attacking the same point all followed the same trajectory!
What does this indicate? This indicates that these spiritual power turbulences actually have their own trajectories similar to the spiritual power rhythm lines!
Spiritual power turbulence Spiritual power turbulence does not mean that it is very chaotic, but it can confuse people. Of course, when there is no target to attack, they are like a pile of loose sand, but with a target, they are like a neat army.
"There is a way!" Shi Yan's eyes lit up. "To put it bluntly, this is just a larger spiritual power rhythm line. If we find a matching point, can't we mislead them? It's just like matching with the natural spiritual power rhythm line, so that nature thinks it is its own kind and absorbs spiritual power crazily."
"Okay! Let's do it!" Shi Yan was ecstatic and summoned a crystal bottle. The huge bottle was empty at the moment. The earth milk inside had long been squandered by Shi Yan. Thinking about it now, it was really a pity.
Shi Yankua sat on the treasure bottle, holding the spiritual platform, practicing [Reincarnation Technique], closing his eyes and then suddenly opening them, the world has changed!
The world in Shi Yan's eyes was made up entirely of thick silk threads. The threads were like vines and poisonous snakes twisting in the sky and rushing towards him. In the black fog in the distance, the number of vines and poisonous snakes was even more terrifying!
He gritted his teeth, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and slowly extended his spiritual power rhythm line.
The spiritual energy line carefully extended out of the protective wall, poking its head out a little, but the surrounding spiritual energy ignored it.
"Hey, there's a chance!" Shi Yan smiled even more happily, carefully controlling the spiritual rhythm line to approach, like a venomous snake that has spotted its prey, waiting for the opportunity to bite. "Okay!" The spiritual rhythm line rushed over and pierced into a thick silk thread. Shi Yan only felt a roar in his ears, as if he heard something, but the sound was too mixed, like thunder rumbling in his ears. The spiritual rhythm line sank into the silk thread and passed through it without any hindrance. Suddenly, a sharp golden light came from it. Shi Yan could clearly feel the violent emotions and strong rejection from the golden light.
Shi Yan's brain buzzed and he felt a pain in his head, and he almost fainted. This impact almost caused Shi Yan to lose control of the spiritual power rhythm line.
He calmed down and faced the violent consciousness of the golden light without flinching. A cold light flashed in his eyes, "I don't believe I can't deal with you!"
The presence of emotions means that this thing was not formed naturally. When this thought formed in his mind, he was shocked. Such a large turbulence of spiritual power was actually man-made?
Although he was horrified, Shi Yan's unyielding personality was fully revealed. No matter who you are, if you dare to show off in front of me, I will kill you. He didn't seem to realize that the guy who could make such a big noise was easy to mess with.
This golden light was filled with the aura of tyranny, destruction, and ruin! In addition, it even had the characteristics of arrogance and contempt for everything.
This is an extremely brutal battle!
The violent impacts gathered together to form a huge pressure, like a huge mountain pressing down on Shi Yan, as if to scare Shi Yan away. However, instead of scaring Shi Yan away, Zuo Mo's ferocity was aroused. He pounced on the enemy like an enraged lion!
Finally, the golden light retreated step by step, and the effect was very obvious. Dongqi discovered that the turbulent spiritual energy in front of him had become sparse, and only in the area in front of him, there was a channel with only a small amount of turbulent spiritual energy.
"Everyone, charge!" Shi Yan suddenly stood up and shouted hysterically.
Everyone was filled with joy, as if the clouds had parted and the moon was revealed. Everyone ran as fast as they could.
Shi Yan followed behind him, but his steps were a little frivolous. The unknown war just now almost exhausted his physical strength.
His eyes gradually became blurred, and he felt very relieved as he watched the people leaving.
At the same time, he cursed in his heart, "You bunch of heartless people, don't you realize that I have no strength left?"
But with all the clouds and mist around, who could see clearly what was in front of them? They could only see a figure less than a meter ahead and the passage with a shadow.
Shi Yan finally couldn't hold on any longer and fainted on the ground. Ye Yier and Mo Zixuan seemed to have a telepathic connection and turned around, but the way back had been blocked again, and they could no longer see the scene or the people inside.
