“Crash!”

The tens-meter-tall giant skeleton suddenly collapsed and turned into a pile of broken bones.

With the joint efforts of Zhou Qing and Ao Xuanwei, this monster whose strength exceeded that of a normal Venerable could only end up being destroyed.

However, endless bones still crawled out from the abyss and underground, and the collapsed bone giant actually stood up again.

And its size has become even bigger, it looks like it has grown by more than ten meters.

The increase in size means that the bone giant’s strength has increased again.

Looking at this white-bone giant, Zhou Qing let out a sigh of relief.

"Tianxu, it really gave us a warning."

The experience of entering Tianxu this time is completely different from the last time I took the Yun family's route.

Zhou Qing finally understood how safe the safe path explored by the Yun family was.

"If I can kill it once, I can kill it a second time, and a third time!"

Ao Xuanwei attacked again, the sky blue true energy looked extremely beautiful and gorgeous, but it contained extremely terrifying power.

"call!"

The bone giant punched Ao Xuanwei, then raised one foot and stomped directly towards Zhou Qing.

The long sword was swung horizontally, splitting the sky and the earth without retreating.

The two men fought against the stronger bone giant again and removed its bones bit by bit.

"boom!"

The bone giant was blown up for the second time, but it stood up again immediately. This time, its size was as big as a hundred meters! In addition to the bone giant itself, there were a large number of bones attached to it, turning into a giant bone armor.

A huge knife with hideous bone spurs appeared in his right hand.

After this skeleton giant's size increased dramatically and he became fully armed, his momentum increased dramatically again, becoming extremely terrifying, and he had definitely reached the Earth Realm!

But finally, no new bones emerged from the abyss and the ground.

The bone giant is silent, but the attacks it launches are earth-shattering.

Zhou Qing looked at the white-bone giant solemnly, and then...

Summoned the six spirit puppets.

The Six Spirit Puppets flapped their wings and instantly appeared under the blade of the bone giant, then directly knocked the bone sword away.

With a flash of light, the power of the Six Spirit Puppets gathered in the palm of his hand, and then he punched down, directly knocking the bone giant away and breaking his bones.

Zhou Qing and Ao Xuanwei did not stop and took the opportunity to attack fiercely.

"boom!"

Under a series of fierce attacks, the bone giant was shattered again. This time it was unable to reassemble and turned into a sea of ​​bones.

In front of the six spirit puppets at the level of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, the bone giant finally came to an end.

A glowing object appeared where it collapsed. Zhou Qing quickly put it away, then put away the Six Spirit Puppets, and hurriedly left here with Ao Xuanwei.

After they left, the bone fragments all over the ground began to wriggle, seeping into the earth and returning to the strange mother body.

After a long time, perhaps when someone sets foot here again, they will encounter the bone disaster again.

The various disasters in Tianxu are too weird. Things like the bone disaster and the white bone giant have no life in themselves. They are more like a mechanism, a law.

According to the laws of Tianxu, how can one be killed?

It's just a temporary silence, and no one knows when it will recover in the future.

After carefully moving away from the site of the bone disaster, Zhou Qing and Ao Xuanwei found a place that didn't look so strange, stopped temporarily, and took pills to recover from the energy consumed in the previous battle.

After looking at Zhou Qing, Ao Xuanwei smiled helplessly.

"We actually encountered such a powerful disaster at this depth. Our luck is really bad."

"I didn't expect that. It's really unlucky."

Although no one has a clear regional division for Tianxu, some things are taken for granted.

The Tianxu Pure Land is considered the safest border, and strictly speaking, only after leaving the border and continuing to go deeper, you have reached the outskirts of Tianxu.

This is the area where Zhou Qing and his team are now located, and they have just entered the outskirts not long ago.

But we encountered this level of bone disaster just outside Tianxu...

If it were a normal Venerable, he would definitely not survive.

Generally speaking, most of the outer areas are dangerous disasters at the Venerable level. This is why few people below the level of Manifestation of the Holy Marrow Cleansing enter Tianxu. It is also very dangerous for people at the level of Manifestation of the Holy Marrow Cleansing entering, and it depends a lot on luck.

The various disasters outside Tianxu alone turned this place into a killing field.

But only when one is extremely unlucky will one encounter something here that the Venerable cannot resist.

According to most people's experience, this level of danger is only encountered in areas close to the depths on the periphery.

Zhou Qing and his friends were indeed quite "lucky" to have received such a surprise as soon as they came in.

Of course, this does not mean that Earth Realm masters can run rampant in the shallower outer areas.

The dangers in Tianxu are very special. Some dangers come from living strange creatures, but more are due to various regular disasters. These regular disasters are related to the entire Tianxu and connect this world. They are very special.

Once this kind of regular disaster in the outer area is triggered, the lower limit of danger is generally at the Venerable level, but if it is further activated, the laws of Tianxu will experience a deeper recovery, and the power of the disaster will directly increase.

By then, the earth realm and even higher realms will be in danger.

The laws and environment of Tianxu are not people. The degree of danger is fixed and fluctuates. The more laws you touch, the more terrifying the danger you face.

Some people even speculated that if an unparalleled master attempted to fight against the entire Tianxu on his own, then even if he stood in the outer area, the mechanism deep in Tianxu would riot, and the power of the entire Tianxu would sweep over and kill him.

Therefore, no matter where you are in Tianxu, no matter what your cultivation level is, there is no such thing as absolute safety. There are still many dangers and accidents can happen at any time.

There is no place here that can be called absolutely safe. Even in the safe path explored by the Zun family, Zhou Qing encountered strange things at that time.

The difference between being on the periphery and being in the depths is the different lower limits of danger when the Tianxu disaster initially recovers.

The deeper the disaster is, once it manifests, the initial lethality will be extremely terrifying, reaching the earth realm or even the heaven realm.

When an Earth Realm master walks on the periphery, his own existence is captured by Tianxu, which makes it more likely for the power of Tianxu to be stressed. Once the power of Tianxu is stressed, the disaster will not be something that a normal Earth Realm master can resist.

If an Earth Realm expert walks in an area where the lower limit of danger is the Earth Realm, then although the Tianxu disaster there will be at the Earth Realm level as soon as it manifests, it will be relatively stable and will not cause any stress, and it will still be within the range that can be barely coped with.

Therefore, few masters of the Earth Realm or even the Heaven Realm would hang around on the periphery for a long time, for fear of encountering accidents.

In Tianxu, accidents are more dangerous than common disasters.

Zhou Qing added: "If we encounter any danger on the road ahead, we should try to solve it by ourselves. We should not use puppets unless it is absolutely necessary."

He was afraid that the puppets in the Earth Realm would disturb the environment of Tianxu, causing the power of Tianxu to riot and leading to accidents.

If something like that really happened, there would be no doubt that you would die.

This is also why when facing the bone disaster at the beginning, Zhou Qing chose to deal with it with his own strength only, and did not use puppets at the first time.

He was afraid that using the Six Spirit Puppets would escalate the Bone Disaster to a scale that he would be unable to handle.

The reason why he used the Six Spirit Puppets later was because he did not want to use secret methods to improve his cultivation and fight the Bone Giant head-on, but wanted to end the battle quickly.

They were still in a very outer area. Although they could not see any trace of those practitioners, they were not completely separated from them.

If he used his secret method and fought the hundred-meter-tall bone giant himself, there was a high chance that he would attract other people.

In Tianxu, sometimes one would rather face disaster than encounter those fellow Taoists from the outside world.

"That's exactly what it should be."

Ao Xuanwei also agreed with Zhou Qing's idea, and she understood it.

"Although I was unlucky enough to encounter the bone disaster, I also gained a lot."

Zhou Qing smiled and took out the glowing object he got from the remains of the white bone giant. It was a bone crown.

"This is definitely a treasure. According to the information I have obtained, something like this obtained from the Bone Disaster is most suitable for refining weapons or practicing some special skills."

"These bone treasures have different appearances, including ribs, hand bones, leg bones, etc. According to records, the bone crown is the best quality among the bone treasures of the same level."

Zhou Qing looked at Ao Xuanwei with a smile, "Getting this bone crown is a good start."

Good fortune and misfortune are interdependent, nothing is more true than this.

In the outside world, it is not easy to obtain a treasure, but in Tianxu, the chances are greatly increased.

There is a reason why so many people come to Tianxu to fight.

Ao Xuanwei looked at the bone crown, thought for a moment, and said, "Not only can it be used for refining and practicing, it can also be used as a formation tool, or ground into powder and used in talismans. It has many uses."

"This bone crown can be sold for a good price."

"No, no, we'll just use it ourselves. I heard you've done some research on talismans?"

"That's just what you need."

Ao Xuanwei smiled and said, "I have only gained a little, and my attainments are not profound."

The two did not stay here for long. Once they had recovered enough, they immediately set off again.

Along the way, the two chatted while carefully observing their surroundings.

"I don't know how big this Tianxu is. Do you think anyone has walked every inch of Tianxu?"

"Yes, Tianxu is much bigger than Tianxu County."

“…”

Tianxu is larger than Tianxu County. This statement seems very contradictory at first glance.

Isn't Tianxu in Tianxu County? How can the former be bigger than the latter? But in fact, this statement describes the facts.

Some people were outside Tianxu County, walking along the counties surrounding Tianxu County such as Tiangui and Tianyue, and measured the size of Tianxu County.

Tianxu County itself has a large area. Among the counties in Tianzhou, it can be said to be the largest county in terms of territory.

However, there was also a route that started from the Tianxu Pure Land and walked in one direction after entering Tianxu.

In the end, he had walked out of Tianxu for a total of three Tianxu County territories measured by the outside world, a distance equal to the sum of the longest direct distances from one pole to the other.

But he still hadn't reached the border of Tianxu in the other direction, and it could be said that it was endless, with no end in sight.

Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)

This is undoubtedly strange and quite abnormal.

But as the exploration of Tianxu gradually increased, this is a fact that cannot be ignored.

Practitioners from all walks of life explored Tianxu and their footprints covered many places. Someone later summarized the findings and was shocked to discover a problem.

People have already explored the Tianxu area. Even if you throw in ten Tianxu counties that have been measured from the outside world, they still cannot fill up Tianxu.

This is shocking.

The boundary between Tianxu County and other counties is very clear, and the size of its territory has always been fixed.

But the area of ​​the Tianxu inside it is so large that it is unbelievable.

It seems as if the inside and outside of Tianxu are two completely different worlds.

When Zhou Qing first learned about Tianxu from the Yun family, Lu Qingmo and the others told Zhou Qing that this place was called Wubian Tianxu.

Tianxu is just a short name.

And the word "boundless" is not an exaggeration. It is true that Tianxu is very strange and its size does not match that of Tianxu County at all.

"The size of Tianxu's territory is unusual. Some people speculate that it is because there was a space and world independent of this world inside Tianming Sect. After the destruction of Tianming Sect, those space and worlds were also integrated into this world, causing Tianxu to become larger."

Ao Xuanwei said: "Because of the limitation of Tianxu's power, the extra space was confined in Tianxu and did not affect the places outside of Tianxu."

"I've also seen this speculation in Xuandu Temple." Zhou Qing nodded.

"Some people think that those independent spaces may be the secret realms of the Tianming Sect, which contain great secrets, or they may be space gaps discovered by the Tianming Sect."

"There is even an even more shocking speculation that the Tianming Sect controls another world, and the Tianming Sect Mountain Gate is the gateway to that world."

"The Tianming Sect was destroyed, and that world was integrated into our world, which is why the endless exploration of Tianxu was created."

Hearing this, Ao Xuanwei shook her head.

"This speculation is so exaggerated that it feels a bit ridiculous."

The power that destroyed the Tianming Sect was indeed terrifying, but that incident did not even destroy Tianzhou.

Directly destroying another world doesn't sound credible at all.

"And, do other worlds really exist?"

"Perhaps."

Zhou Qing smiled. Other worlds really do exist.

It was hard to say whether the abnormality in the area of ​​Tianxu was due to the integration of other worlds. After all, it did sound a bit exaggerated.

But is it possible?

That's still a little bit.

Because of his own unique experience, Zhou Qing still believes in the existence of other worlds.

His worldview is also different from that of ordinary people. Since different worlds really exist, the sizes of these worlds must also be different.

If the world that was integrated into Tianxu was a relatively small one, then it was indeed possible.

Of course, this is a new guess based on the premise that the world fusion guess is correct. Zhou Qing couldn't tell whether it was true or not.

When faced with doubts, one needs to think more and use his brain more. It is not illegal for him to guess the truth of the matter.

Whether the abnormality in the area of ​​Tianxu is due to the secret space of Tianming Sect, the space gap, or other worlds, it has become an untraceable mystery in this era when Tianming Sect has been destroyed for many years.

Now that no saints can be born, tracing back to the events of the Tianming Sect's era is more difficult than Zhou Qing becoming an immortal right now.

After the two of them went deeper into the distance, the sky and the earth suddenly shook.

The earth was really shaking, like an earthquake, and the clouds in the sky were changing dramatically, condensing and expanding.

“Bang!”

Lightning flashed and formed an evil dragon in the dark red clouds.

Zhou Qing grabbed Ao Xuanwei and immediately came to a relatively flat place. There were no abysses, broken mountains or dry rivers around.

"What's the problem again?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the clouds in the sky suddenly exploded and debris fell...

That was not a cloud, it was clearly blood! Now that the blood was falling, it suddenly looked like rain falling from the sky.

Zhou Qing and the other person were within the coverage of the blood rain and had no time to dodge before the blood rain fell to the ground.

Zhou Qing and the other man only had time to raise their body-protecting energy to repel the blood rain and keep their bodies from being contaminated.

"Get out of this rain first."

The two men quickly escaped, but saw that the blood rain falling from the sky did not seep into the ground, but instead accumulated and continued to flow.

Finally, a strange blood dragon condensed and soared into the sky.

This blood dragon looked very strange, with bloody heads densely packed on its body, including animal heads and human heads. The mouths of those bloody heads kept opening and closing, and blood flowed from their heads to the blood dragon's body and then circulated again.

The blood rain is still falling and the blood dragon is growing stronger.

Zhou Qing and the other man had already left the area covered by the blood rain, but they did not continue to move.

"here we go again……"

Zhou Qing sighed.

Ao Xuanwei smiled and said, "It seems that the two of us are destined to be in conflict with Tianxu."

It’s not that they don’t want to leave, but after the blood dragon took shape, it locked onto them directly.

This was another disaster that came to cause them trouble. Even if they left, it would definitely chase them.

What’s important is that the blood dragon’s aura is becoming more and more terrifying, and it is already very close to a hundred-meter-tall bone giant.

The blood rain is still falling, and it is inevitable that the blood dragon will eventually reach the earth realm.

Zhou Qing wanted to ask Tianxu, "Do you have any problem with me? I'm still on the periphery, and you're arranging disasters like this for me?"

Which link went wrong? "It's better to strike first!"

Zhou Qing and Ao Xuanwei rushed directly towards the blood dragon without waiting for it to grow.

…

When the blood dragon was defeated again and the blood rain from the sky stopped falling, Zhou Qing obtained a bead from the blood dragon's hand, and the two left immediately.

Not long after, a hundred-meter-high peak actually "came to life" and blocked Zhou Qing and his group's way again.

This mountain disaster is stronger than the bone disaster and blood disaster.

…

The situation exceeded normal level time and time again, and many disasters that should not occur so frequently in the periphery appeared one after another, causing Zhou Qing and Ao Xuanwei to fall into a series of fierce battles.

After one devastating disaster after another, both of them looked extremely exhausted.

Ao Xuanwei said with certainty: "Zhou Qing, this is problematic. It shouldn't be like this. There must be some reason we don't know about that has led to the difficulties we have encountered along the way."

"Some people I know have been to Tianxu, but they didn't have this experience."

If a normal Venerable had suffered the disaster that Zhou Qing and his companions encountered, he would have died countless times.

If this is the daily routine in Tianxu, then who would dare to come in?

Zhou Qing was silent for a moment and took a pill.

"I think I know the reason."

"Why?"

"Because of the Tianming Sect..."

Zhou Qing looked towards the depths of Tianxu. The red clouds were so low that they seemed to be pressing down on the earth.

"Because of me."

I am the "traitor" who keeps putting us in danger.
