Chapter 2428 I’ve been waiting for you for a long time

If the leader of the Lingyin Sect had reached the perfection of Kongjing at that time, then his lifespan and cultivation alone would be enough to operate the Black Rock City formation for about three years.

Coupled with the eight elders whose strength is unknown, it is definitely enough for the Black Rock City formation to grow until it can run completely independently.

But there was one thing that Lin Ye couldn't figure out: "But, since you also said that those on the ground are outright evil people, then why not let them live underground instead of using them as a battle array?

What about choosing to let them live on earth?”

Although after learning about it, Lin Ye believed that such a "punishment" method was quite cruel.

But in fact, for those on the ground, they have long been numb.

There may occasionally be awakened people like Ah Ying, but they are actually in the minority.

And Lin Ye believed that they must have used some method to make these "awakened ones" completely forget the meaning of their existence the moment they left the inner city.

Just as Lin Ye and the others saw when they entered the city, they seemed to be living just to die.

"At that time, our ancestors had no choice but to do so."

Ming Rilang smiled calmly: "The reason why the formation of stealing the sky and changing the sun is called stealing the sky and changing the sun is because in addition to absorbing human life, it also needs some spiritual energy from heaven and earth to nourish it."

"And the hundreds of thousands of slaves underground at that time were very resentful after their deaths. Many of them had even turned into ghosts, and it would take a long time to purify..."

It can be seen that Lin Ye is a smart person, so there is no need to speak clearly tomorrow.

The soul is fragile and may even turn into a ghost, so it is almost unfit to be exposed to the sun.

Therefore, the ancestors of Lingyin Sect had no choice but to place those innocent slaves underground.

After the formation on the ground could operate smoothly, they slowly resurrected the innocent people.

I don't know how many generations passed before these innocent slaves were finally fully resurrected.

After decades or even hundreds of years, the situation in Blackstone City has stabilized.

The great formation on the ground is responsible for extracting the lives of the people of Sin City, imprisoning and raising them day after day, year after year, generation after generation.

The interest extracted is used to protect these innocent slaves living underground.

Because these slaves who died in vain had deep resentments and the treatment they received was too miserable, the Lingyin Sect still guards here until now, constantly purifying their souls.

As for why they are not allowed to reincarnate or move to other places to live, it is also because of this.

They are among those who died in vain. After death, their souls turned into ghosts and could no longer enter reincarnation.

I don't know which master of Lingyin Sect actually came up with the idea of ​​using the sky-stealing and sun-changing formation to establish a transcendent space in this underground city that is independent of the three realms.

These people who were originally unable to enter reincarnation after dying in vain can find a cyclical life here.

Moreover, they can also enjoy the atonement of those who killed them.

Not only the people of Zuicheng, but also the people of Lingyin Sect are also trying to atone for their original mistakes.

Of course, the premise of all this is that the Black Rock City formation on the ground still exists.

"I have finished what I have to say."

As soon as Ming Rilang finished speaking, he had just finished the last sip of tea in the teapot.

He did not continue to speak, but gave the right to speak to Lin Ye and An Jiuxiao.

Just listening to it for a while made An Jiuxiao sweat profusely.

He never put down the hand holding the sword, but he didn't know whether to take it out of the sheath, so he could only turn his head and look at Lin Ye.

After experiencing what happened in Wangxian City, he had absolute trust and admiration for Lin Ye.

He could trust Lin Ye's ideas.

But Lin Ye did not make a decision immediately, but looked at Ming Rilang steadily: "Senior, you didn't call us here just to tell stories, right? You told us this, are you trying to persuade us not to leave?"

Mind your own business and leave Blackstone City on your own?"

He could see it, and at the same time he believed that the old man in front of him had no malicious intentions, otherwise there would be no need to say anything to them.

However, it cannot be ruled out that it is courtesy first and then attack.

If Lin Ye and the others insist on destroying the Black Rock City formation and allowing A Ying and the others to regain their freedom, the old man in front of them might make it impossible for them to return.

"Of course not."

Ming Rilang smiled, and the look in Lin Ye's eyes suddenly made him feel a little hairy.

Because the old man looked at him not only with appreciation, but also with expectation: "You know, actually, I have been waiting for you ever since I found out about the appearance of the Son of Language."

"Wait for me?" Lin Ye was a little confused.

Does he have anything worth waiting for?

"Yes," Ming Rilang smiled and nodded: "To be precise, it's not just me waiting for you, but our entire Lingyin Sect is waiting for you."

The old man, who had looked indifferent just now, had a bad smile on his lips when he said this, and at the same time he was a little happy and excited: "You don't know, we have been waiting very hard for you!"

After saying that, Ming Rilang even stood up and patted Lin Ye on the shoulder.

Now Lin Ye was even more confused. An Jiuxiao was immediately stunned and turned to look at Lin Ye: "Old Lin, are you the reincarnation of their first generation sect master?"

Before Lin Ye could react, Ming Rilang rolled his eyes at him angrily: "Although he is a child of language, there is no need to take advantage of me like this."

"Why, if he is the reincarnation of our first-generation sect leader, do I still have to kowtow to him?"

An Jiuxiao was scolded and scratched his head in embarrassment: "Ahem, I didn't mean that. It's just that, senior, your words are really elusive, making it difficult for the younger generations to understand."

"Let me tell you straight, the reason we came here today is to destroy the Black Rock City formation and let those heinous sinners in your eyes reincarnate freely."

"If this is the case, do you still expect us to arrive?"

Lin Ye didn't stop An Jiuxiao from telling the truth. After all, looking at Ming Rilang's appearance, he already knew their purpose even if he didn't tell it. Isn't it obvious?

If you want to say that you are here to seek advice, it is okay to deceive Qiuxin, but if you want to deceive Ming Rilang, this is not realistic.

But Ming Rilang's reaction was far beyond Lin Ye's expectation.

I originally thought that even if he didn't take action, he would definitely give some advice first.

Unexpectedly, Ming Rilang smiled calmly after hearing An Jiuxiao's words: "Of course I know that you are here to destroy the formation."

"Then you said you were expecting us to come, what do you mean?" Lin Ye asked.

"It's not that I'm expecting you, I'm expecting you."

Ming Rilang put his hands in his hands and looked at Lin Ye in a way that made Lin Ye feel confused, because there was actually a trace of...pity in it?
