Chapter 366: The Holy Land of the Sages Cracks
When the sky suddenly brightens and day and night are reversed, something strange will surely happen.
In the white birch city of Yunzhou, Ye Han looked at the bright and brilliant sky in the distance and couldn't help but mutter to himself.
He was just discussing with the two young clan leaders of the Ya and Lin tribes about sending an envoy to Youzhou to pay homage to the emperor.
Because even if they trade privately with humans, their alliance with the barbarians will not change.
The purpose of sending this delegation is to explain this matter.
Yunzhou is highly dependent on minerals and its agriculture is not developed. The fact that it cannot feed its people without trade is a very legitimate reason, and I think the barbarians can't say much.
Moreover, the Barbarian King has arrived in Youzhou for many days. At this moment, the demon clan should also take some action to strengthen the alliance between the two clans.
But who would have thought that just as the meeting in the study was over, he saw the bright daylight, as if the sky had changed.
"This vast celestial light is definitely not man-made. Its source must be in Zhongzhou."
Lin Dou whispered and looked at Ye Han: "When I was learning about the human race from the scrolls left in the city these days, I saw a record saying that the Nine Provinces have outstanding people and beautiful lands, and that treasures are often born there."
Ye Han glanced sideways and turned to look at the guards beside him.
After a cup of tea, several demon generals walked into the air and roared away in the huge birch tree.
Just as the demon tribe was reacting, several powerful auras emerged from Chu City in the heart of Youzhou and rushed towards the southeast.
This is the downside of having the Northern Wall breached.
The Zhenbei Army stationed in Qingzhou can keep an eye on the large forces of the two tribes, the Man and the Demon. They can see them flattening the streets and migrating their people from the far north.
But they could not stop these individuals who were moving forward secretly like they did with the Jingxian Formation.
After all, the two states of Youyun are huge in area, and the two tribes of Manyao and Yao in particular both have blood talents, some of which are specialized in hiding.
At the same time, Lao Qiu was looking up at the sky in the backyard of Jizhai.
The private sale of the Snow Demon Stone led to the accelerated sale of grain. Coupled with the arrival of spring plowing, the entire Fengzhou was plunged into a bustle.
Old Qiu also negotiated with all parties for a long time before returning to Jizhai in the dark.
After washing up quickly, he picked up the porcelain basin, intending to pour out the water and go to bed.
Unexpectedly, when he pushed the door open, he was stunned and couldn't help but look at the porcelain basin in his hand.
At this moment, he was not sure how long it took him to wash up. By the time he washed his face, it was already dawn.
At this moment, Lao Qiu, who was in self-doubt, heard footsteps.
Looking up, Ji You had already arrived in the yard, and Kuang Cheng followed closely behind him. After seeing Ji You, he immediately stepped forward.
"Brother Ji, are you still awake?"
"I was just about to go to bed." Ji You responded.
After hearing this, Kuang Cheng looked up at the sky and asked, "What happened there?"
"I'm not sure, but it seems to be in the direction of the Holy Land of the Ancients."
As soon as the words fell, everyone suddenly felt a black screen in front of their eyes.
Above the deep and boundless sky, the white light that was gushing out from the sky faded away like a tide, and the darkness that should have been there filled the air in an instant.
The intense alternation of light and dark made countless people feel overwhelmed. Their eyes ached and they felt dizzy as if they had lost their souls.
When they got used to it, they saw the stars and the moon reappear in the night sky, as if everything just now was just an illusion.
"Inform the people in the village not to go out tonight and stay in the mansion. I will go and take a look."
As soon as Old Qiu came back to his senses, he heard Ji You's arrangement: "Young Master, please be careful."
Kuang Cheng also followed the voice and said, "Be careful."
Ji You nodded, then suddenly jumped up from the ground.
The powerful momentum roared in the void. As waves of sand and dust rolled up, his figure suddenly crashed into the thick night and headed south.
At the same time, a large number of people from the aristocratic families of Zhongzhou have gathered in the mountains and forests in the north of Zhongzhou.
Among them are the He family, the Zuoqiu family, the You family, as well as the Qiu, Huang, Sheng, Liu and other century-old families, and their gates are not far from here.
They did not make an appointment to come here together, but came here at the same time based on the direction of the burst of light, and then met randomly because they came from different directions.
The reason why these people from aristocratic families flocked to the place so much was the same as that of the young patriarch of the scale tribe of the demon clan. They also felt that a magical treasure seemed to be born nearby.
This is not a random conjecture, but according to the family histories of major families, there have indeed been several precedents of spiritual treasures being born in this place.
After all, this is the holy land of the ancients, and it is not surprising that it is favored by Tianhua.
For a thousand-year-old family, the spiritual treasures of heaven and earth must be taken into their own possession, while for a hundred-year-old family, this is undoubtedly an opportunity to enhance the family's strength.
Logically speaking, this was a battle between families, and anyone else who appeared here would be an opponent. However, when they met in the mountains, they did not fight immediately.
After all, most of them are attached to Tianshuyuan, and they have elders at home who are often seen in the courtyard. They will not directly quarrel with each other if they don't see the real thing.
Huahuahua——
As the light faded, the mountains and forests returned to darkness, and all was silent.
Apart from the faint sounds made by the immortal sect disciples as they moved forward silently, the only sound here was the rushing river from the southwest.
That was the sound of a tributary of the Nujiang River, which suppressed the rustling sounds in the forest and made everything seem exceptionally quiet.
"On the south side."
He Ye, the head of the He family, practiced the Four Symbols Technique and could sense subtle differences in the surrounding air currents. He immediately caught a hint of something unusual in the silence.
Seeing this, the He family members immediately adjusted their direction and headed south.
The Zuoqiu disciples led by Zuoqiu Jingyun also came from another direction at this time, taking the same route as them and entering a winding valley.
Their two families are related by marriage, and the He family has always relied on Zuo Qiuyang, the hall master, to gain a foothold in various places, so there is not much competition between them, and it is common for them to work in the same industry.
However, after entering the valley, more than a hundred disciples from the two families could not help but quicken their pace, because they knew very well that the skylight covered a very large area this time, and it must have alarmed other families.
They had the upper hand because of their proximity, so all actions had to be taken quickly.
Crossing mountains and valleys, several family heads and hundreds of followers occupied the entire valley and continued to move towards the southeast. The further they went, the more cautious their expressions became.
Because they originally thought that the birthplace of the spiritual treasure would be near the entrance of the holy land of the sages. After all, it is the place where the two worlds intersect, and the possibility of the appearance of spiritual treasures from heaven and earth is the greatest.
But as they walked, they found that they were quite far away from the entrance and were not moving straight towards it.
However, in terms of distance, this still belongs to the holy land area of the sages, but they are outside the boundary.
At this time, it had been some time since the skylight dissipated, and the aura was no longer obvious.
So these members of the aristocratic families began to disperse and started a large-scale search of this dark forest.
Because it had just rained in spring, the forest was very damp and the smell of mud was constant with every breath.
The He family and the Zuoqiu family followed the direction they had previously determined and walked to the middle of the winding valley. The airflow in front of them suddenly became clear and turbulent.
"Yes, it's just ahead!"
He Ye said in a deep voice, and the disciples behind him immediately quickened their pace.
As they went deeper, everyone's eyes began to become solemn.
Because the darkness in front of you is distorted, it is not the distortion of the air flow or the distortion of the light, but the distortion of the darkness itself.
It's like a smooth piece of silk that is pinched by someone's hands, causing wrinkles to appear.
In other words, the space here is distorted.
"What...what's going on?"
He Ye looked at the arc-shaped wrinkle running from top to bottom in the void, his expression became extremely surprised, and the Zuoqiu family also showed several solemn eyes.
Although those with great magical powers can cause ripples in the virtual space, those ripples are only fleeting, and even Lin Xian cannot destroy this world.
But it turns out that this wrinkle seems to have existed for a long time, and not only can it not be restored, but it is still being squeezed.
They vaguely felt that the bright light shining in the sky and the strong shaking of the earth were not as simple as the birth of some magical treasure from heaven and earth.
"Master, come and see!"
"?"
To the west of the front, He Long, who was leading the family members to explore, suddenly exclaimed with a trembling tone, which immediately attracted He Ye and Zuo Qiu Jingyun.
So in an instant, the two of them stood up and ran straight to the place where the sound came from.
At this time, You Fusheng, the head of the You family, also flew away with two elders of the family.
However, before he could catch up with the two disciples, You Fusheng found that He Ye and Zuo Qiu Jingyun had stopped in the distance and looked up at the void in astonishment.
Did he find something? Why did he suddenly stop moving?
The doubt only flashed through his mind for a moment before he saw the answer with his own eyes. He couldn't help but freeze and his breathing stopped.
I saw that in that deep valley, the entire night sky was severely distorted, and dense folds covered the sky, constantly crowding out.
But this is not the most important thing.
The most crucial thing is that in the deepest places of the folds, countless gaps that have cracked from the void are densely arranged, and there are dozens of them.
The largest one ran across the entire cliff and was several feet long, like a dark oil painting that had been torn apart by someone.
At the crack, thick nothingness kept beating, as if it could annihilate everything.
The cliff closest to it had a piece cut off, and at the same time, an old tree nearby that had just sprouted new buds also withered strangely, as if all its vitality had been drained away.
Seeing this scene, everyone opened their eyes wide and a look of shock flashed across their faces.
"Why is the void shattered here?"
"It's a holy place for the ancient sages..."
You Fusheng spoke in a deep voice behind the two families.
Because he suspected that Lingbao was born in the holy land of the sages, he had a map of the area in his hand, and this place happened to be in the southwest of the holy land of the sages.
When the Heaven sent down the holy weapon, it left behind a vast amount of spiritual energy and endless immortal opportunities, but it also crushed this piece of void.
Later sages sealed it with great magical powers and relied on it as an independent small space, slowly healing it with the power of the origin of the world.
So although this is one place, it is actually two worlds.
What collapsed here was not Zhongzhou, but the holy land of the ancient sages.
Its collapse tore apart the night in the mountains and forests.
boom!!!
Just when everyone was confused, a loud noise suddenly came from the southwest side, which instantly brought them back to their senses.
At this moment, the tranquility deep in the jungle was suddenly shattered by a series of loud shouts.
"Zhao Tianji, how dare you!!!"
"Old dog, you are silent, but your calculations are quite strong. It's a pity that your blessings are too shallow, how dare you take over the immortal fate!"
"Damn it!"
Amidst the curses, a majestic sword aura suddenly rose in the distorted night sky.
The disciples of the three families all looked up at once, and saw that amidst the angry curses, an elder of the Qiu family named Qiu Lie was sent flying backwards and crashed heavily onto the cliff.
At the same time, a figure holding a knife came whistling, waving his hand like a claw sword and pressing down fiercely.
He was an elder of the Zhao family in Zhongzhou, and his aura from the Yingtian realm roared through the mountains and forests.
At the same time, a brilliant golden light suddenly shot out from Qiu Lie's arms. The golden light was like a one-foot-long koi carp, with a thick head and a thin tail, floating in the air with fairy light.
Because of the sudden noise here, all the noble families scattered in the forest gathered together and watched this scene with shocked expressions.
You Fusheng, Zuoqiu Jingyun and He Ye in the valley suddenly looked at the huge crack and their hearts trembled.
Not only did the holy land of the sages crack, but when it cracked, immortal spirits also leaked out from inside.
It’s true that they didn’t know what the golden light that looked like a swimming fish was, but feeling its majestic fairy spirit and moving Taoist rhyme, they felt that the thing was like a fairy and had a spirit.
Buzz——
In a strong gust of wind, Zhao Tianji, who was flying into the air, reached out and grasped the fairy spirit.
After just a moment of contact, the aura in his body began to surge, and his heart of Taoism instantly became extremely clear. The bottleneck that had trapped him for more than twenty years showed signs of loosening in an instant.
But before he could rejoice, a purple lightning bolt struck him fiercely, and the powerful force of thunder suddenly poured down on him.
With a "puff" sound, Zhao Tianji's right shoulder was instantly torn apart by a flash of lightning, and blood spurted out.
At the moment he felt pain, his five fingers loosened instantly, and the fairy spirit flew out of his hand. In an instant, countless greedy eyes in the mountains and forests gathered towards it like lightning.
In an instant, several figures rose into the air, and the air waves generated by the collision of spiritual energy instantly stirred up a strong wind, which bent all the old trees in the dense forest.
The first to take action was the Liu family's Yingtian Realm ancestor, and his position was closest to Zhao Tianji.
But before he could hold the beam of spiritual power tightly, a stone plate came flying towards him, crushing the mountain ridge with a whistling sound, and fell to the ground. The ancestor of the Liu family was instantly blown away several feet, and screamed in shock, and half of his arm that caught the plate with his bare hands became numb.
The one who offered the iron plate was also an old man with white hair and beard. Everyone was familiar with him and knew that he was from the Jiao family in Zhongzhou.
The Jiao family is located in the southern part of Zhongzhou, close to Liangzhou, and is not close to here.
His appearance indicated one thing, that is, the noble families from afar were gathering here, and many people had already come to this forest.
However, the ancestor of the Jiao family did not succeed, because when he grasped the beam of spiritual energy and soared into the sky, wanting to take the treasure away, a huge net was raised out of thin air, and flew towards him with a flash of spiritual light.
Because there was speculation before coming that this might be the birth of a magical treasure from heaven and earth, everyone was well prepared and used the clan's magical weapon as the first move.
The ancestor of the Sheng family controlled the net with his left hand, while slashing down with his right hand.
The Jiao family ancestor who was covered by the Skynet was horrified, but fortunately the stone plate had flown back at this moment and blocked the beheading blow, but the palm of his left hand holding the plate suddenly broke.
Despite the intense pain, the Jiao family ancestor still held the fairy spirit in his hand, and tried to tear the net in front of him with the spiritual energy roaring all over his body.
But they were not the only two who were staring at this beam of spirits, so in a flash, several more figures came rushing over.
The Jiao family's ancestor was restricted by the Skynet and could not escape, but the brilliant fairy spirit finally escaped from his hands.
Since their ancestor has already taken action in the fight, the disciples in the sect naturally will not just stand there and watch. At this time, they have also become a group fighting, with the sound of killing everywhere.
However, the battle between them did not involve the fight for the fairies, because they themselves knew that a battle of that level was not something they could participate in.
In the ensuing melee, the cliffs in the mountains and forests cracked into pieces, and old trees that had been there for countless years were uprooted.
Under the cover of night, the number of noble families gathering here began to increase.
"scold!"
As the immortal spirit changed hands several times, several flickering flames poured down like a rainstorm.
He Ye came with a magic weapon shaped like a command arrow in his hand. He rolled up his sleeves and firmly grasped the bundle of fairy spirits. Suddenly, he felt a sense of being in touch with the way of heaven, and the Taoist rhyme flowed throughout his body.
Seeing this scene, several figures with weapons flew over in the night and changed their targets in an instant. So He Ye directly threw the fairy spirit to He Long behind him, and then smashed it down with the command arrow.
At almost the same time, Zuoqiu Jingyun and You Fusheng also joined forces to attack, and with a whistling sound, a heavy hammer and an iron sword pressed down fiercely.
Because of their relationship with the Tianshu Academy, they usually walked very close to each other. Seeing footsteps coming from the north, they were naturally worried that more and more people would gather and it would be difficult to leave, so they might as well join forces to capture this fairy first.
Amidst the howling wind, murderous intent rushed in. Zhao Tianji, unwilling to give up, rushed to the front and fought fiercely with He Ye. Finally, he was hit suddenly. He felt dizzy and flew away, letting out an angry scream from his throat.
At the same time, Zuoqiu Jingyun and You Fusheng also joined forces to stop the remaining ancestors of the aristocratic families.
"stop!"
While taking a breath, He Ye shouted loudly, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
"Just because you say stop, you have to stop?"
Zhao Wuji's white hair flew across the sky as he responded with a sneer, his murderous aura not diminished in the slightest.
His family, the Jiao family, and several other families present were all affiliated with the Chen family of immortals. They were not of the same kind as them and did not have a very good personal relationship with them, so naturally they would not listen to what he said.
He Ye didn't get angry when he heard this. Instead, he spoke calmly, "I know what you're thinking. You all think this item must be a rare treasure, and it will be a great opportunity for both your own cultivation and your family. But I think everyone can calm down and think about where this item came from."
As soon as the words fell, everyone looked at the huge crack above the canyon.
Although they did not get close like the He, Zuoqiu, and You families, they knew that this thing came from the holy land of the ancient sages.
"Indeed, this item comes from the Holy Land of the Ancient Sages. Within the Holy Land of the Ancient Sages is the ancestral temple of our race and the source of the Heavenly Dao. It is of great relevance. How can you and I take it for ourselves?"
He Ye's voice was a little heavier. "In recent days, Qingyun has been plagued by disasters, and there are many people harboring evil intentions. Now that the Holy Land of the Ancient Sages has cracked for no reason, it is an ominous sign. This object is closely related to the Holy Land of the Ancient Sages, so it should be handed over to the Heavenly Academy and asked the Immortal Sect to make a decision."
Hearing this, everyone showed a gloomy expression.
As fellow thousand-year-old foxes, they knew the other party best. Handing it over to the Heavenly Academy? No one would believe that.
They were sure that once this thing left their sight, its whereabouts would immediately become unknown.
But when they heard him mention the name of Tianshuyuan, they had to be more cautious and looked thoughtful.
At this time, He Ye put away the command arrow slightly, looked at the expressions of the crowd and retreated calmly, intending to take his people away from this place of dispute first, and then make plans.
But at this moment, he noticed that the eyes of the hostile families in front of him suddenly became stern, so his nerves instantly tensed up, and he immediately grasped the command arrow in his sleeve again.
But at this moment, he felt a sharp breath coming from behind.
puff--!!
In a flash of cold light, He Long, who was standing behind him holding the fairy spirit in his hand, spurted blood from his mouth and flew forward.
Everyone from the He, Zuoqiu, and You families turned their heads to look, and saw a pair of vertical pupils flashing with an eerie light in the distance. Its animal ears and canine fangs all indicated that it was a demon general.
Behind him, several eyes with the same vertical pupils appeared on the surrounding cliffs, looking over fiercely and locking onto the dazzling golden light.
