Chapter 600 Captain
The black chariot stopped in front of the valley entrance.
In the valley, some ghost soldiers walked out and bowed to report something.
The person in the car gave orders to all the ghost soldiers by voice transmission. He never showed up, looking quite mysterious.
"They are actually guiding the ghost soldiers from Yecheng."
"To guide the ghost soldiers, one must use the Ruins of Time Divine Token. Chu Yutian must have entrusted such an important item to the most trustworthy master. Who could it be, Qing Zao? Or perhaps the never-revealed Luo Yinji?"
Li Weiyi stared intently, not missing any details.
It was discovered that the two leaders of this ghost cavalry had even their armor burning with karmic fire. Their ghost bodies were several meters tall and their aura was extremely powerful. They were obviously powerful figures in the "Record of the Lords of Karma City".
Suddenly, the two of them seemed to have sensed something and looked towards where Li Weiyi was hiding.
Li Weiyi's face suddenly changed as he realized that it was his prolonged gaze that had made the other party notice something was wrong. So, he quickly cleaned up the traces on the ground, took advantage of the wind, and floated away invisibly.
Fortunately, the distance was far enough that the other party was not sure whether anyone was watching. He just checked briefly and turned back.
From within the black chariot, a voice, unidentified as male or female, rang out: "Do not linger at the valley entrance. Lead your troops into the valley immediately. I must continue to fetch the next batch of troops."
…
After leaving the underworld of Fanye Valley, Li Weiyi immediately rushed to the border of the ancient country of Suiyuexu, preparing to report the matter to the Shaoling Army first.
Even without the God's Order of the Ruins of Time, one can still cross the Belt of Withering and Flourishing, but the loss of lifespan will be greater.
If it really doesn't work, he can coordinate his testimony with Tang Wanzhou afterwards and say that the Sui Yue Ruins Divine Order was with him at the time, so as to cover it up.
Using the time power of the Daozu Taiji Fish, Li Weiyi exited the withered and flourishing zone and blew his whistle. A moment later, from the distant darkness, a whistle echoed back, signaling that someone was waiting outside to meet them.
After reporting the situation, Li Weiyi returned to the ancient country of Suiyuexu and prepared to set off for Chuncheng immediately.
From afar, he saw the ruins of the ancient city where everyone had temporarily settled after entering the ancient country of Suiyuexu.
It is like a giant beast abandoned by time, lying quietly on the horizon.
The ruins of the ancient city lie only five hundred miles from the Belt of Withering and Flourishing, and are close to the ancient Ye City. During the heyday of the ancient nation of Suiyuexu, it would have been a crucial frontier town, defending against the vengeful spirits of the south.
Thinking about the footprints he found at the beginning, Li Weiyi always felt that it was too much of a coincidence.
So, as if by some strange coincidence, he once again arrived outside the ruins of the ancient city.
The city wall has been severely weathered, with only the innermost earth and half-exposed boulders remaining, like a giant beast with its skin peeled off, revealing its skeleton.
The city itself was even more dilapidated, with houses long since collapsed, leaving only crumbling ruins. Ancient paintings could be faintly seen on some of the walls.
Outside the city, the footprints that Li Weiyi had discovered had disappeared.
I don't know whether it disappeared naturally or was cleared by humans.
"The wind here is very weak."
Li Weiyi walked into the city, releasing strands of spiritual light from his brows to survey the ruins. He also released earth nerves to explore the underground conditions.
He stopped beside an ancient well.
It is a dry well, and the surrounding stones have been polished to be extremely smooth over thousands of years.
Li Weiyi squatted down and was surprised to find that moss had grown on the bottom of the stones surrounding the edge of the dry well.
The moss is sparse and light, which shows that it has only grown in the last few months.
Or maybe it was cleaned a few months ago.
In the lifeless and desolate ruins of the ancient city, this faint sign of life seems too strange and abrupt.
Li Weiyi pondered for a moment and jumped into the dry well.
The dry well was very deep, dozens of meters deep, and pitch black.
“Chi!”
A ball of spiritual fire ignited in the palm of his hand, illuminating the darkness.
Soon, Li Weiyi discovered traces of moisture and moss on the wall of the well, spreading up from deeper below.
The spiritual light was condensed into nerves, which were sent to explore below the mud layer at the bottom of the well.
Suddenly.
Li Weiyi heard some movement coming from the wellhead above, and his heart skipped a beat. He suddenly raised his head.
I saw a shriveled head with loose white hair lying on top, peeking down, blocking the entire well mouth. Its face looked horrible and very scary.
Li Weiyi returned to Inoue.
Looking at the cyan figure standing not far away, and then at the dried corpse wearing the Xianxia Sect's magic robe next to him, he patted his chest lightly, exhaled a long breath, and complained: "Captain, do you know that you almost scared someone to death just now? Did you do it on purpose?"
Qing Zijin stood prettily four steps away, wearing a veil. Her neck was as slender and sexy as a white swan, her chest rounded and rounded, and her white belt quickly gathered, making her slender figure easy to hold. Her lower body was even more well-proportioned; even without lifting her skirt, one could feel the astonishing length of her legs.
Thirteen mummies are scattered in various locations in the ruins, giving people a sense of eerie evil, forming a sharp contrast with the graceful beauty in the night.
She snorted coldly: "If you completely restrain your breath, how can I know whether it is an enemy or a friend in the well? I am doing a good thing by not burying you in the well."
Li Weiyi asked seriously, "How long did it take to get here?"
Qing Zijin collected all the mummies and said, "I just arrived! I remembered the footprints I found the last time I passed by and was about to investigate, but I didn't expect to run into you. How did you end up here?"
"This is called fate. I think the same way."
Li Weiyi felt it was too much of a coincidence, so he asked, "Didn't we agree to meet in the Tiandu River Underworld? Where have you been? I've been waiting for you there for two years, blowing the whistle countless times, thinking you'd had an accident. When I went to explore the Fanye Valley Underworld earlier, I thought it was you hanging on the flagpole. Do you know how worried I've been all this time?"
"You waited two years?"
Qing Zijin found it unbelievable.
Li Weiyi said, "Originally, I was planning to go to Chuncheng with Nangong and Liuye, but I realized that you have a low level of cultivation, little experience, and a stubborn mind. If you were to wait alone in the underworld of Tiandu River and die, and if you were captured by the Taiyin Sect and the Dead Spirits, I would regret it for the rest of my life. If you're still alive, why don't you come and join me?"
Above Qing Zijin's veil, her eyes were icy cold. "How dare you say that? Where did you meet? That day, after we separated, I had just arrived at the Tiandu River Underworld when I encountered the Marquis of the Dead Souls and nearly died there."
"After escaping, I could only hide in a remote underworld to recuperate. After more than two months outside, I felt it should be safe and prepared to return to Fanye Valley to investigate. But... I also saw Lu Qing... Li Weiyi, do you know who else is still alive?"
Li Weiyi said, "I only know Nangong, Liuye, and Shengsi. By the way, did you find anything unusual when you went to the Netherworld of Fanye Valley?"
Qing Zijin said, "That's exactly why I passed by this place. I've been secretly observing for three days, and I've seen a large number of commander-level ghost soldiers from the Ancient Ye City gathered there. They must have some plan. I don't know who is still alive, and I don't know who to trust. I can only risk my life to break into the Kurong Belt, leave first, and report the news."
"We had the same idea, but after we walked over, we felt scared. We were afraid that the Holy Spirit Master's three hundred years of lifespan could not withstand the time power brought by Ku Rong." Li Weiyi said with a sincere tone and a wry smile.
Qing Zijin said, "How could it be possible to waste three hundred years of life? Let's go out together. With our cultivation level, it's too dangerous to continue staying in the ancient country of Suiyuexu."
Li Weiyi shook his head. "Before you came, I was still hesitant. Now that you're here, let's split up. You go out and report to the Shaoling Army, and I'll go to Chuncheng to look for Shengsi and the others."
Qing Zijin watched him for a long moment before she sat down dejectedly by the well and sighed sadly, "I'm actually not even sure if I can get through the withering and flourishing zone."
"How about we go to Chuncheng together? We'll fight together and leave together. We'll never abandon any Shaoyang Guard." Li Weiyi said.
Qing Zijin said: "That's true..."
“Someone’s coming!”
Li Weiyi's expression changed slightly, and he exchanged a glance with Qing Zijin, and the two immediately jumped into the dry well.
Before going down the well, Qing Zijin took out a talisman and stuck it on the edge of the well.
Suddenly, the entire dry well disappeared without a trace. If you don't explore it closely, you can't find it at all.
Fall to the bottom of the well.
Qing Zijin noticed the moss on the wall of the well, studied it carefully, and asked softly, "Is this the anomaly you discovered earlier?"
Li Weiyi stared at the wellhead above, feeling very nervous. He channeled his magical energy into his ears and said, "Is your concealment talisman reliable? Let's not get ourselves trapped in the well."
Qing Zijin rolled her eyes at him: "You have a high talent for telekinesis, but in the art of talismans, you're far behind me, okay?"
"rustle!"
Two sounds of breaking wind entered the ruins of the ancient city, and light footsteps landed on the ground.
The two were far away in the city area hundreds of feet away, but Li Weiyi could outline their landing posture and the subsequent walking route in his mind.
They released their magical energy and searched everywhere.
"This is Yeyun Pass, a major military town in the south of the ancient country of Suiyuexu. It once housed a million soldiers and countless formations. It is said that there is a space teleportation array inside the pass. Once a war breaks out, the top warriors can be teleported here in the first place." A young voice sounded.
Another voice said, "Brother, do you think the Ancient Tribe of Time used a space teleportation array to avoid the Withering Belt? If it were that simple, why wouldn't the Demon Kingdom, the Du'e Temple, the Demon Tribe, and the Netherworld of the Dead have done the same?"
"Who knows? Perhaps they believe that the teleportation arrays within the Ancient Country of Time Ruins were destroyed by the Queen of Time before her death. In any case, any special location along the border of the Ancient Country of Time Ruins is worth exploring."
Then, the voice continued, "We've received news from above that the Ancient Suiyue Clan has experienced some unusual behavior in the past hundred years. Many unknown masters have suddenly appeared, and some cultivators have also made sudden and significant progress in their cultivation."
"It's speculated that the Ancient Suiyue Clan has secretly mastered a method to freely enter and exit the Ancient Suiyue Ruins Country. This time, we must investigate thoroughly. Anyone who finds a clue will be rewarded handsomely."
Two footsteps came from above, heading towards the ancient well.
