Chapter 221 The young man enters the wilderness(1/2)
The Donghuang Continent is vast and boundless. If the Great Yu Dynasty is the center, the imperial capital will be the bullseye.
The outline of the nineteen states looks like a teapot.
The spout is tilted up, and the edge of the mouth is Tianmen Pass. Extending outward from Tianmen Pass, passing through the gray magical land outside the country, where demons live and occupy, and further away, is the deep black wilderness on the map.
Dayu's military department had four branches, which were in charge of military selection, maps, state chariots and horses, military armor and equipment, etc.
His second job, Fangbu, is to take charge of the map of the world and draw and update it regularly.
In the more than three thousand years of history of the Dayu Dynasty, the old and new versions of the map have been updated for many generations, leaving aside the changes in the terrain within each state.
The demon territories outside the country are classified as gray areas, but over the years, mountains, rivers, peaks and other landforms have been gradually surveyed and named.
This also provides great convenience for the Demon Suppression Department to track down wanted demons abroad. The map is the eye. Just drawing the map sacrifices many talented people.
However, no matter how the old and new maps changed, beyond the realm of monsters, deeper and further, the area named "Great Wilderness" by the late emperor when he went on an expedition was always dark black.
There is no description or introduction of the landforms.
For example, the black abyss surrounding the edge of the continent is a dangerous place where human beings are prohibited from doing anything. It is dangerous and mysterious.
For thousands of years, talented people from the Ministry of War have successively tried to go to the wilderness to find out what happened, but they made countless sacrifices and only brought back little information.
These messages written in blood were woven into a book called the Great Wilderness Sutra.
There is only two pages and a brief description of several hundred words.
Life is thinner than paper.
But even so, this thin two-page paper was carefully treasured by the Imperial Palace, and only top powers such as the Divine General Mansion had copies.
At this moment, at the edge of the wilderness, a young figure is walking in the wild jungle with towering ancient trees.
It was surrounded by tall trees and misty.
"The records say that in the wilderness, miasma is everywhere, giant beasts are rampant, demons are raging, and there are also traces of rumored ancient ferocious beasts."
As Li Hao moved forward, he also looked around carefully.
This record is indeed true. Although he has not yet encountered the giant beasts and monsters, he has already felt the damp and sinister miasma in the forest.
Fortunately, his immortal treasure body is extremely condensed and strong, so he can resist easily and not be harmed.
But if it were to be in another three immortal realms, even if it stayed in this forest for a long time, the treasure body would be damaged.
Needless to say, if your cultivation level is lower, it will only be more difficult.
My mother actually lives in a place like this... Li Hao's eyes flashed, his thoughts turned, and he asked the old man of the Ji family who had shrunk and hidden himself:
"Is there really the human life you mentioned here?"
"It's not the human race, it's the saint race!"
The voice of the old man from the Ji family immediately corrected him.
When dealing with Li Hao, he also had a love for talents, so he was willing to say more:
"My Ji family is from the ancient holy clan. Although we are also from the human race, our clan has the blood of the ancient saints and is physically powerful. It is definitely not comparable to you barbarian primitives. What's more, our clan is protected by the holy land and the miasma does not invade.
It’s no exaggeration to say that it is a land of gods.”
When Li Hao heard this, he felt a little relieved. It seemed that his mother's living environment was not bad.
While walking, Li Hao started chatting with the old man from the Ji family.
I learned the other party's name, it was Ji Yunge.
The other party only talked briefly about the Ji family's affairs, but did not talk in depth. However, he gave Li Hao a lot of advice on matters in the Great Wilderness Heaven, and also made Li Hao understand that this Great Wilderness Heaven was indeed as explored by countless sages from the Ministry of War.
Extremely dangerous.
But this dangerous place is divided into regions.
For example, the place where they are now is on the edge of the wilderness. Although they will encounter extremely terrifying monsters, the probability is not high.
Most of them are occupied by demons and ferocious beasts with low bloodline.
However, the energy of the world here is abundant, and even demons with low bloodline are expected to become demon kings. Therefore, the record of the Dayu Dynasty that one cannot easily set foot in the wilderness without the Four Realms can be regarded as a quite reliable warning.
Among the towering ancient trees, Li Hao followed Ji Yunge's guidance and hurried on.
He shuttled through these large trees with a diameter of tens of meters, and several people could easily lie flat on each branch.
As I was walking forward, a dark shadow suddenly came over me.
The Taoist rhyme draws you, and the attack is sure to hit, and there is a feeling that it is inevitable.
Li Hao was slightly startled, and the steps he had just landed suddenly stepped out quickly again, leaving no trace in the world. With a whoosh, he disappeared under the pull of the rhyme.
Before Daoyun's traction was connected, Li Hao appeared at the attack point, as fast as lightning, and saw that the person who attacked was a woman hidden behind the thick leaves of the treetops.
The opponent is half human, half demon, and his lower limbs are as ferocious as a mantis.
Seeing Li Hao who suddenly appeared in front of her, the woman was also startled. She obviously didn't expect that this young man, who although his aura was not visible, was obviously from the human race, could actually have such skills!
Her pupils suddenly shrank, but she reacted very quickly and spit out a stream of green venom.
Bang!
Li Hao raised his hand and punched out. The violent wind of the punch directly shook away the venom and hit the banshee's face, smashing her delicate snow-white face, revealing the shell-like bones inside, and she screamed in agony.
"The ancient genius?!"
The banshee retreated and looked at Li Hao in shock.
At such an age, she actually has such terrifying explosive power. At the edge of this wild world, she actually met an ancient genius?!
She cursed in her heart that she was unlucky and turned around to run away, ignoring the pain on her face.
Li Hao's reaction was extremely fast. As soon as the picture of flying birds in the mountains was opened, coupled with the traceless sky and earth, he caught up with the opponent almost instantly. Under the shocked gaze of the banshee, he punched her through the head.
Blood splattered on nearby trees.
A spirit rushed out of the body of the banshee, looked at Li Hao in fear, turned around and ran away screaming.
Her soul burned and exploded at full speed, but Li Hao's power to control things had already been condensed into a sword, which was slashed out instantly, tearing his body apart, and then quickly split the sword energy, shattering his severed soul, and completely annihilating it.
All this happened in the blink of an eye, and the Taoist Demon King had fallen into the hands of Li Hao.
Ji Yunge, who was hiding in Li Hao, couldn't help but smile on his face when he saw it.
Although Li Hao was seen displaying extremely extraordinary talents in Minghe, it was more or less because Li Tianzong was obsessed with taking care of him secretly.
Nowadays, Li Hao's real body's explosive power, skill and strength are not inferior to those of Shi He, which makes him feel relieved and satisfied.
He thought that when Li Hao would send him back to Ji's house, he could introduce him to Li Hao. If Li Hao could be allowed to practice in Ji's house, it would be considered an excellent cultivation.
At this moment, Li Hao punched the Banshee King and felt a stinging pain in his fist. It was actually the venom on his fist that was corroding his skin.
Since his body can be corrupted, if he were in the ordinary three immortal realms, his flesh and blood would probably have rotted away and his bones would have been exposed.
Li Hao took a deep breath. He didn't expect that he would encounter a sneak attack by the demon king before he had walked a few dozen miles in this wild world.
He glanced at the body of the Banshee Queen. Except for the smashed head, the body was still intact.
He quickly flew back, came to the opponent's body, raised his hand and grabbed it, absorbing the life essence and blood in the opponent's body.
I saw that the body of the Banshee Queen quickly withered, and finally resembled wrinkled gray carrion.
Li Hao casually slapped it, smashing its bones into ashes so as not to leave traces of its whereabouts.
After absorbing the life essence and blood of the Banshee King, Li Hao circulated and condensed it in his body. The tingling sensation on the back of his hand immediately disappeared, the decaying erosion also stopped, and his flesh and blood was regenerated.
He had just come out of Minghe, and his true body was still the same strength as before the end of the Liangzhou War. His physical body was only comparable to the level of the divine weapon that had been forged seven times.
At this moment, I became a little more diligent again.
It can be seen how powerful the venom of this banshee king is. Even a demon king like Lu Yuan, who is in the ultimate realm, can hardly cause serious injuries with his physical body. The other party is just in a state of mind, but it makes him bleed!
"You can hurt me with your Taoist state of mind. Is this the Demon King of Dahuangtian? It feels more powerful than outside."
Li Hao murmured to himself.
Ji Yunge couldn't help laughing when he heard this.
Is it still worthy of praise to hurt you three immortals with a Taoist state of mind?
It's really outrageous.
However, this is the case for all ancient geniuses. Killing the Demon King in adversity can shock the barbarians in that wilderness, but in this wilderness, they can only be called outstanding.
But he knows that Li Hao's true strength is not like this, so even among the ancient saints, Li Hao is enough to become a genius. This is the reason why he cherishes his talent!
After dealing with the banshee king, Li Hao did not stop and continued moving forward.
He has the attribute of omniscience and can block his breath, but the sound caused by his actions will still attract some demons along the way.
Li Hao killed two more on the way, but they were both in the third level of immortality. They tried to sneak attack, but he slapped them to death.
There are no weapons around him, but Li Hao's body is already at the level of a divine weapon, and his fists and feet are extremely destructive.
While rushing on the road, Li Hao was also digesting the memories and martial arts skills brought out by Qian Heli.
Because of his memory, these exercises were directly included in the panel, and in the panel, after the deduction of the seven stages of the fleshly path, some new exercises evolved.
