Chapter 185 Another 3000
“Ahhhh!”
Ning Mingmei grabbed Lin Heting and Lao Ba, one in each hand, and kept them suspended in the air. Lao Ba looked down at the sea, still feeling frightened.
“Is this… a secret place?”
This sea was different from all the waters he had seen in other secret realms.
The secret realm is filled with abundant spiritual energy, lush flowers and plants, and rare and exotic animals. Therefore, in the past, the sea surface that Lao Ba saw in the secret realm was mostly rippling blue waves.
But the sea in front of me was black.
The black sea surface was calm and waveless. When I used my spiritual sense to probe it, I found that there was no sign of any living creature. Lin Heting tried to throw a bead down, but the bead did not splash any water, but sank straight to the bottom of the sea.
"How could this happen?" Lin Heting murmured.
Ning Mingmei looked at the increasingly dense clouds in the sky and said, "It's better for us to leave here quickly."
If I remember correctly, according to the map on the embroidered screen, there is only a sea in this secret place.
This sea is marked as "Lavender Sea" on the map. It is known that Jiang Heng and Jiang Wu once lived in the Demon Realm, where there is lavender. Therefore, no matter whether the color of this sea was once light purple or dark purple, it could never be the black color it is now.
What exactly happened in this secret realm in the hundreds of years after Jiang Heng left?
Ning Mingmei looked towards the west again. In that direction, Jiang Wu cast a fog under the map that said "Don't approach". Ning Mingmei has no interest in challenging the unknown, he just wants to find what he needs.
"Go west." Ning Mingmei said.
The two disciples then followed him and flew forward on their swords. Along the way, both of them were a little frightened. Logically speaking, the movement of the sword would stir up wind and waves. Although there wouldn't be big waves on the sea, there should at least be small ripples.
But the surface of the sea has never changed and is as smooth as a mirror.
A mirror where one does not know what is hidden beneath.
After flying for half an hour, Lin Heting suddenly realized that they had not heard any sound along the way.
There was not even the sound of birds.
Finally, they were out to sea, and the coastal beach and the forest in the distance appeared in front of the three people. The trees near the coast are dead, with their pointed treetops pointing to the sky like dying hands. After flying for a while, the forest became green and the sound of birds chirping could be heard.
Lin Heting finally felt relieved. He said to Ning Mingmei: "Master, we have to go find them and join them."
Ning Mingmei said: "Yeah."
This is also very necessary for Ning Mingmei.
He needed to arrange Lin Heting and Lao Ba under the care of those people, and then set out alone to find the coordinates provided by Jiang Wu.
If they were asked to follow, it would be troublesome to explain how they got the coordinates. At least for now, Ning Mingmei must not reveal his background.
People can tolerate private morality, bribery and embezzlement, but the only thing they cannot tolerate is a background that carries the risk of "leaning to a different camp."
And Ning Mingmei has another plan.
He didn't plan to bring Chang Feichang with him.
The secret realm is the secret realm of the witch sisters. Chang Feichang is the witch's child and a member of the mob. The mob stole Weng Xingyun's Soul-Binding Lamp and researched the Hunlun that could destroy the world. It was obvious what they wanted to do. The reason why Chang Feichang entered the secret realm is also very obvious. He knew that this secret realm was left behind by the witch sisters, so he wanted to find the Starfire Island skills they left behind, or more heritage related to Starfire Island.
Even if Chang Feichang's personal will was only to avenge those who were insulted and harmed, and only to prove the wrongness of those persecutions, his personal will was of no use. Therefore, Ning Mingmei had every reason to monopolize this inheritance.
The forest is full of spiritual energy and the stream is gurgling. Just by walking like this, they had already seen a lot of treasures without looking for them specifically. Some of the best spiritual herbs are even as thick as an adult man's wrist.
However, the ancient secret realm is full of dangers, and gathering is the first priority. Therefore, Lin Heting and Lao Ba finally held back.
Fortunately, they soon found a group of people.
This group of people are from Yinbing Pavilion, and they are gathered together to use the telephone talisman. Unfortunately, the number they dialed was out of service area, so they were worried. Ning Mingmei quickly brought them along, and one of them complained, "Why is this secret realm so weird?"
Lao Ba said: "There are no base stations in the ancient secret realm. Isn't it normal that your phone talismans can't be used?"
"Who said that? We have already achieved base station-free calls. Damn it, it's obviously possible to run it in our Yinbing Pavilion... Let's fix it again..."
It seems that this is another special environmental problem of Yinbing Pavilion.
Ning Mingmei also took a look at the live broadcast device in his arms. The live broadcast device was also silent, with no signal.
Forget it, let’s record it first. Moreover, the recorded broadcast can also be post-produced and edited.
As the two groups of people were walking, they heard a roar in the distance - the roar came from a ferocious spirit beast. Several people were shocked and ran towards the source of the sound.
"not good!"
The mountains collapsed and the earth shook as the spirit beast roared. In the collapsed mountain, there was a spiritual beast with a golden-red body, and scorching flames were coming out of its long, curly beard. The spirit beast's fangs were extremely long and stained with blood. Surrounded by it were several disciples from Minghua Valley.
The disciples of Minghua Valley were also unlucky, as they unexpectedly landed directly in the lair of this Grade A spirit beast. The power of a Class A spirit beast is comparable to that of a cultivator in the God Transformation Stage. One disciple was unable to react in time and was killed by the spirit beast on the spot.
It seemed that the second disciple was also in danger. Ning Mingmei drew his sword and was about to attack, when a flash of sword light appeared.
Very often.
The boy fights with the spirit beast. Ning Mingmei took the opportunity to carry away several seriously injured disciples and asked them to take Zhizhi Black Grape. Among these four disciples, one lost his life, one lost his arm, and the remaining two were also seriously injured. Several disciples of Yinbing Pavilion were at a loss as to what to do and kept turning around.
"Where's the healer in a group fight? Where did the healer go?"
“Wait, Minghuagu himself is the treatment.”
"It's over!"
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Ning Mingmei had no choice but to sacrifice the lotus lantern. The lotus lantern is from Spark Island. There are so many people here and it's hard to avoid trouble.
So he could only give them some simple treatment, but for some reason, the bleeding could not be stopped. On the other side, the spirit beast finally fell down, but Chang Feichang was also injured.
The boy sheathed his sword. As he turned and walked towards them, blood dripped from his arm. Ning Mingmei saw it and said, "You can't heal your wound?"
Chang Feichang shook his head: "The spirit beast is poisonous. The wound it caused cannot be healed."
Ning Mingmei frowned. Behind him, four disciples were also injured. He then said, "We have to find them medicine."
"... Let me think about it, I got it!" Lao Ba clapped his hands and said, "Some time ago, a paper by Minghuagu was published in the journal. It talked about a kind of bell grass in the ancient secret realm that can heal this kind of incurable wound!"
In the end, the journal is still useful. Ning Mingmei pondered for a moment and said, "Although I don't know if it exists in the secret realm, I can only try to find it. What is its growth environment? What is the suitable acidity and alkalinity?"
Lao Ba and Lin Heting are looking up information. Ning Mingmei glanced at Chang Feichang and found that Chang Feichang was also a little absent-minded.
Like Ning Mingmei, Chang Feichang at this moment also only wanted to find the legacy of Jiang Heng and Jiang Wu in the secret realm.
"Found it!" Lin Heting said, "Its location is..."
Lin Heting simulated and described the possible environment. Ning Mingmei listened, his facial expression did not change, but his brows raised inwardly.
It's really a coincidence. There is only one place in the ancient secret realm that matches the common distribution location of the rattle grass.
It is the place marked with Wu on Leng Huaping's map.
Several disciples were still bleeding. At this moment, although Ning Mingmei used black grapes to replenish their blood, if it lasted for a long time, the lives of several people would be in danger. Ning Mingmei made a prompt decision before Chang Feichang could speak: "Master Chang Feng."
"Um?"
"You stay and take care of them while I go find the rattles," he said.
Often frowning a lot. Before he could speak, Lin Heting spoke up: "Master, the ancient secret realm is full of dangers. Even if you are in the Spiritualization Stage, how can you make it alone? Moreover, according to the newly released secret realm exploration rules, in the ancient innate secret realm, at least three people are required to travel together."
"Yes." Lao Ba said, "Moreover, in the secret realm, the more precious treasures there are, the more poisonous beasts are guarding them. If you are alone, Master..."
"There's nothing we can do about it." Ning Mingmei said sternly, "I can't let you stay here alone..."
"Master Ning! Master Chang!"
As we were talking, someone who didn't know what was going on came over.
The ones who came over were a small group from Qiushi Sect led by Ye Guimu, and a few monks from Yanyun Tower. Fortunately, the cultivator in the early stage of the Jinhua Realm in Yanyun Tower is a famous medical practitioner. After hearing the situation, she said, "Master Ning, Master Chang, you can go without worry, leave this to me."
At this moment, I really hate the consideration of the monks from Yanyun Tower.
As he was speaking, the doctor's face suddenly changed drastically. She shouted, "Stay away! That bottle..."
That bottle?
Everyone then remembered that in order to find a way to restrain Hunlun, the leader of each team received a small glass bottle before entering the secret realm. A bit of chaos was sealed in a small bottle. In the process of exploration, they will look for things that can restrain Hunlun based on Hunlun's reactions.
The monk who was bitten to death just now was the Hunlun carrier of this team. The bottle on his body fell from the spirit beast's mouth when he was bitten. It's just that the situation was so chaotic just now that no one noticed.
At this moment, the bottle fell to the ground and actually cracked!
A gray and black object as big as mud crawled out through the crack at this moment. Everyone who had seen its special effects felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy. Lin Heting stepped forward and stood in front of the injured person.
But the next moment...
"It, ran away?"
Someone murmured.
Hunlun was not like usual. As soon as he saw humans, he tried his best to get into them. This time, it swam in one direction, close to the ground.
That's the direction to the Black Sea.
"Sure enough, there is something in this secret realm that drives away Hunlun!" The medical practitioner was surprised and delighted, "Those disciples who were corrupted by Hunlun can be saved!"
Now it seems that this ancient secret realm does contain what they want.
But no one expected it at this moment.
Perhaps this secret realm contains more than just things that can expel chaos.
It also has something that attracts chaos.
"Without further delay, let's set off now."
The die is cast, Ning Mingmei can only set off with Chang Feichang. Chang bandaged the wound very simply and nodded.
Ning Mingmei looked up and saw that even in this place with abundant spiritual energy, the sky was not clear blue, but was still covered with clouds.
What exactly changed the environment of the secret realm?
Heading east, you will reach the mountains with an inner lake. Ning Mingmei did not go straight to the destination he knew, but flew his sword towards the place with the most mountains. He tried to use his live broadcast device, but found that there was still no signal.
Chang Feichang was also looking around along the way. He closed his eyes and felt the fluctuations of spiritual energy around him. Ning Mingmei said at this moment: "Xiao Mu is seriously injured but still comes to see you off. That's really nice of him."
Chang Feichang only said one sentence: "How have you considered it?"
"Jiang Wu may be my mother. But I have never met them before, and for a moment, I don't know what to say." Ning Mingmei replied, "So, the person who stole the Soul Binding Lamp from the forbidden area was also you?"
"I'm here." Chang Feichang said.
"What good would it do to steal it?"
Chang Feichang said: "Qi Miancheng once took you into the forbidden area. You should know whose soul is condensed inside."
"Weng Xingyun." Ning Mingmei said with certainty, "You want to revive Weng Xingyun, why? What's the use of this?"
"She is the founder of Spark Island." Chang Feichang said.
"But this is of no use." Ning Mingmei said.
"Why is it useless?" Chang Feichang said, "She remembered the skills of Spark Island. She founded Spark Island. She was so famous that even a thousand years later, the immortal cultivation world still feared and hated everything related to her. Jiang Heng only learned a little bit of her skills, but he was able to create such a big wave. We need Weng Xingyun, and Weng Xingyun also needs us."
There was an endless forest under his feet. Ning Mingmei suddenly laughed at this moment.
"Why are you laughing?" Chang Feichang asked.
He frowned slightly, very confused. Ning Mingmei then said: "In my opinion, she is of no use at all."
Chang Feichang said, "Are you trying to say that she failed once a thousand years ago, so even if she were resurrected, she would be of no use?"
"No. In my opinion, she has only one use - her only use is to make your organization more legitimate." Ning Mingmei said, "A concrete god, a god who has been filthy but extremely powerful. And your revenge can finally change from personal revenge to a holy war for God in her name."
Chang Feichang said: "...I don't understand what you mean."
"Then let me ask it in a different way." Ning Mingmei said, "So, will she be your leader?"
Will she be the one who can decide your future plans and direction?
silence.
There was a long silence.
"I think...she will understand." Chang Feichang said after a long silence, "She will stand on our side."
The forest was like a vast blue ocean, and Ning Mingmei stopped at this moment. He turned to Chang Feichang with a calm expression and a light voice.
But it is more heartbreaking than any questioning.
"If she doesn't choose to stand on your side after resurrection, how will you treat her?" Ning Mingmei said, "Will you persuade her? Will you imprison her? Or... will you choose to resurrect another Weng Xingyun?"
“…”
The young man in gray was stunned for a moment. He wanted to speak, but he just opened his lips slightly and then closed them again.
"You just want to find a holy statue to represent you." Ning Mingmei said, "How can the mob today be called the prairie fire crowd?"
“…”
The wind is howling. The gray-clothed young man's lips opened and closed, opened and closed again, and finally, he pursed his lips and uttered a word.
"But they owe us," he said.
"But they owe us," he repeated.
He just stood there, lonely and stubborn, like a young pine tree. At that moment, Ning Mingmei remembered what Chang Feifan had said about his life experience.
The merchants who collected the tolls abandoned them. He carried his non-blood sister, or childhood sweetheart, on his back, step by step across the yellow sand and through the wind and snow.
In Yaochuan City, they had no way to come, and no way to return. He entered the tavern and stubbornly asked the teenagers to treat him as a knife and give him something to do.
Even though he entered Qingji Sect as an undercover agent (according to Ning Mingmei's speculation), he had felt the warmth from his master. But his master eventually became an out-of-control sword-wielding elder and died under his sword.
What did his master say to him before he died? Is it hatred, gratitude, or nothing at all?
He had a lot of things he wanted to protect, but they were all broken. He had a lot of things he wanted to believe in, but they were all lies. Perhaps those idle days on Qiansheng Peak were not his disguise. If possible, he might really become such a monk. Although he is a young genius, he prefers the leisurely life in the mountains. Lying under the moon, lying in the mountains, is a lifetime.
Is it cruel to talk about "ideas" to such people? The world has never treated them with rational, black-and-white justice and wrong.
Ning Mingmei's voice was actually a little dry. He said, "I know."
"You don't know." Chang Feichang actually refuted him in a very low voice, but also very stubbornly, "You have never had it, but you have never experienced loss."
At that moment, the figure of the old professor on the teaching building flashed through Ning Mingmei's mind again.
He came out of the library and saw the news. He rode his bike to the college building, but he heard someone jumping down not far away.
He ran wildly to where he was stopped. He knelt on the ground. He felt the cell phone vibrate in his arms. At that moment, he saw the words "Congratulation" at the beginning of the email.
That's how the world is. Every day and every moment, there are always people who end their lives, and there are always people who embark on a smooth journey at this moment.
"...I know." Ning Mingmei said. He felt that the voice didn't sound like his own. "I've also experienced loss."
Chang Feichang finally turned his eyes away. The two walked forward again without saying a word.
At the same time, the system buried in the darkness finally regained some energy.
Across this mountain range, you will see the purple-green mountains with a large lake. Ning Mingmei noticed a commotion at this moment.
Many monks were riding on swords and flying in the direction he came from.
What happened?
At this moment, Qi Miancheng's voice came from the jade pendant on Ning Mingmei's waist.
"Junior brother."
Ning Mingmei: "Brother, you actually have a signal?"
"Yes, I am in the Void Refining Stage. Therefore, my voice is very strong and can penetrate the restrictions here. Just now, with the help of the elder of the Ice Drinking Pavilion beside me, I restored the call function." Qi Miancheng said, "Junior brother, where are you now?"
Ning Mingmei explained the origin of the matter. Qi Miancheng said: "Okay. Since Chang Feichang is by your side, I feel relieved. Junior brother, I can't come to see you now."
"What happened?" Ning Mingmei asked.
Qi Miancheng said: "We have two discoveries. One is that I found a peach forest. They have the effect of dispelling chaos. This peach forest is an ancient divine object. Haha, Junior Brother, my speed is very fast."
Ning Mingmei: "...It was indeed very fast. Senior Brother, remember to take this peach tree away with its roots. What about the other one?"
It's just a peach forest, it definitely won't cause all the cultivators to run there. After all, dispelling confusion is not everyone's core need. Some monks would rather stay and collect the treasures here.
Chang Feichang was listening nearby. Qi Miancheng added, "Another discovery we made is."
"At the end of the black sea, on top of a cliff, there is indeed a crack."
“A crack where you don’t know where the road ahead leads.”
Ning Mingmei felt a sudden numbness on his back. He just said: "It seems that the opportunity to witness history has arrived."
This should be the reason why all the monks went to the Black Sea at great pains.
But even when thinking of the Black Sea at this moment, Ning Mingmei still felt that it was extremely strange and creepy. He closed his eyes and said, "Brother, should I come over now?"
"Go find what you need." Qi Miancheng said, "But hurry up, or it will be too late."
There was suddenly a commotion coming from Qi Miancheng's side. Someone asked, "Wait, what did you say was on the beach?"
"There is a sunken, hidden cave..."
"Inside, this is..."
"Wait, this is the pattern of Spark Island!"
Spark Island!
At that moment, Ning Mingmei saw Chang Feichang's pupils shrink slightly. The veins on the back of his hand suddenly bulged out at that moment.
Found it!
What the mob needs is the relics of Spark Island!
It turns out that Jiang Heng obtained the complete skills of Xinghuo Island in this secret place. Because this secret place was once owned by the people of Spark Island!
"It seems like you want to go over there and take a look?" Ning Mingmei said.
He said this but did not move. After a moment, Chang Feichang spoke.
He said: "Ning Mingmei, do you already know something?"
What?
Chang Feichang looked at him and said softly, "In addition to the cave on the seashore, there is other information about this secret place."
He looked at Ning Mingmei, who couldn't tell for a moment whether this was a test.
