Chapter 23 Cataclysm
"What's the meaning?"
The words of the leading monk aroused the interest of all the monks present.
One of them asked: "The people in heaven are not immortals. Could it be that they are a group of ordinary monks?"
"It's possible."
The monk who led the way replied: "Heaven distributes life-span medicine to the lower world through formations every month, but no one has ever shown up in the lower world... Think about it carefully, don't you think there is something in it?"
Is it strange?"
"I understand what you mean."
The questioner suddenly said: "You are trying to say that the people in heaven do not dare to teleport to the lower world rashly because of their low strength... They are not omnipotent immortals at all!"
"That's right!"
The leading monk continued: "In fact, it is easy to see that the Heavenly Court can command the immortal sects in the world not by force, but by the life-span medicine that can extend life... From this point, it can be proved that the Heavenly Court's
People may not be as strong as the rumors say."
After hearing this explanation, the questioner thought of a new question.
He wondered: "What fellow Taoist said has some truth... But how can this explain everything that happened in the central square that day? If the people in Heaven are not powerful, how can Taoist Yuanlong do it?
Where is the dead one?"
The leading monk talked eloquently: "It may be some kind of formation, or a powerful magic weapon that killed Taoist Yuanlong... Heaven has ordered the immortal sects in the world for nearly ten thousand years, and there will be some powerful magic weapons.
Means, this is also expected."
In the shelter.
After the leading monk analyzed it, all the monks expressed their agreement.
"My fellow Taoist, what you say makes sense!"
"This analysis is indeed flawless!"
Only Su Xing thought of another possibility.
He remembered that when the black robe was 'reporting' to heaven that day, he communicated with it by worshiping a statue.
If mortals want to become sacrifices and obtain the power bestowed by the indescribable creature ‘Shou’, they must also worship its statue.
So, is it possible that heaven has some kind of connection with indescribable creatures?
Thinking of this, Su Xing asked aloud: "Fellow Taoists and seniors, may I ask if anyone knows where the indescribable creature 'Shou' comes from?"
Indescribable creatures cannot be observed, sensed, or described.
It seems that the monks know very little about indescribable creatures.
For a moment, no one present could answer what Su Xing said.
After a brief silence.
The monk who led the way said: "Indescribable creatures are extremely rare. I have only heard the names of such existences before... It wasn't until that day in the central square, after listening to Taoist Yuanlong's explanation, that I finally understood
I have a certain understanding of similar existences.”
After a pause, the leading monk looked around: "Presumably, the only one who knows about indescribable creatures is the deceased Taoist Yuanlong."
The analysis of the monk who led the way is not unreasonable.
But there are also those who directly question the indescribable: "The indescribable creature called 'Shou' is, after all, just a family opinion of Taoist Yuanlong... Whether that creature really exists is actually hard to say.
"
No one is sure yet whether indescribable creatures exist or not, so naturally this topic cannot be discussed any further.
So the monks began to speculate on when the high temperature outside the shelter would subside.
This time, it was still the monk who led the way, who was the first to express his opinion: "In my opinion, any magical power or spell consumes spiritual energy... and to raise the temperature of the entire Moruo Heaven at once, this
It will definitely consume a lot of spiritual energy, and the high temperature outside must not last long."
"It's the best, it's the best."
After hearing what the leading monk said, the atmosphere in the shelter suddenly became much more relaxed.
A monk smiled and said: "It is estimated that in ten days and a half at most, this Mora Heaven will gradually return to normal... After that, the heaven will definitely move a group of new mortals to this Mora Heaven.
By then, everything will be back to normal again.”
"Hahaha! What fellow Taoist said is true!"
"In no more than ten days and a half, the temperature outside will return to normal... In no more than half a year, Moluo Tian will return to its former prosperity!"
…
Years go by, and half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
But the temperature outside the shelter has still not recovered.
As early as half a year ago, Su Xing had distributed hundreds of life-span pills that he had refined by himself to everyone in the shelter, and lied that the pills were obtained from the city lord's palace.
By relying on the life-span medicine distributed, Su Xing absorbed a large amount of 'black threads'.
In just half a year, his strength has jumped from the original seventh level of Qi training to the ninth level of Qi training.
At the same time, the tentacle mark on his chest has also been completely dyed black under the influence of the 'black silk thread'.
It is not difficult to see from what Su Xing experienced when he was in Lingzhou City.
When the tentacle mark on his chest is dyed black by the 'black thread', he will have a chance to copy the strange ability.
The conditions for duplication are not yet clear, but it is suspected to be affected by strange abilities.
According to what Su Xing has learned, there is some information about Weirdness.
Whether it is longevity ghosts, flesh and blood creatures, or the charm outside Lingzhou City, these strange abilities have no rules and no reason.
And every ability is incredible.
Last time, by chance, Su Xing was able to copy the illusory ability of 'Charming'.
This allowed him to save the day from danger many times, and even defeat the strong with the weak.
This time, Su Xing planned to find an opportunity to copy a powerful monster that was more powerful and unsolvable.
In the shelter.
After waiting for more than half a year, the monks had already lost their original fighting spirit.
As high-level officials in Moratian Heaven, the monks present have long been accustomed to living the lives of superiors. They need good food, fine wine, and maids to serve them every day. This has long become the norm.
Now that they have suddenly been sitting in the shelter for half a year, most people are a little helpless...
This day.
The monk who led the way took out a dinner plate from the storage bag as usual, then smashed a bacon leg and an egg and placed it on the dinner plate.
The monk who led the way approached the exit of the shelter and carefully pushed the dinner plate outside the shelter.
A leading monk with a foundation-building level of cultivation does not need to eat so frequently.
Even if he doesn't eat or drink for dozens of days, he can still survive.
But being locked up in this shelter for a long time will inevitably lead to some cravings.
Enjoying some delicious food is the only enjoyment the guide has at the moment.
Seconds after pushing the plate out of the shelter.
Due to the high temperature outside the shelter, the eggs began to gradually solidify... The surface of the cured duck legs was also roasted until it was sizzling with oil.
Seeing this scene, the monk who led the way became excited instantly: "The temperature outside seems to have dropped!"
As soon as the leading monk finished speaking, someone asked: "Why did my fellow Taoist say this?"
"It's an egg!"
The leading monk said happily: "In the past six months, every time I fry an egg, it usually only takes a few breaths... But this time, I can clearly feel that the time it takes to fry an egg is at least longer than before.
More than double.”
The monk who led the way used the high temperature outside to simmer the eggs on the dinner plate.
The higher the outside temperature, the less time is required.
Today, when frying eggs, it took significantly longer... This means that the temperature outside has dropped significantly.
The words of the leading monk made the atmosphere in the shelter suddenly become relaxed again.
After the monk who led the way made this discovery, in the following period of time, everyone used various methods to test changes in the outside temperature every day.
Finally a definite conclusion is reached.
The temperature outside is indeed constantly decreasing...
So another month of March passed.
By the time Su Xing was on the verge of breaking through to the tenth level of Qi training, the temperature outside the shelter finally dropped to a range that normal people could bear.
In the corner of the shelter.
After seeing a monk walking out of the shelter without any accidents, Su Xing followed the large army and carefully left the place.
Outside the city lord's mansion.
The former city center square has been reduced to ruins by the high temperatures.
Most of the city wall in the inner city has collapsed.
All the houses built of wood in the city were burnt black at this time.
Looking around, there was no one around, there was no green on the ground, and the entire Moruo sky was lifeless.
Chapter completed!
