This is an illusory world, but Li Ye's intuition told him that this place was not illusory, but real.
This feeling is very contradictory, but the instinctive judgment of martial arts practitioners proves that it is not groundless.
"After studying the stone pillars, since the Seven Great Masters said that there is the inheritance of the Seven Star Sword Art here, it is definitely not a lie. Could it be that the clues are hidden somewhere in this world?"
Thinking of this, Li Ye found the village chief, the old man from back then.
"You mean other villages? Young man, it's not safe outside, especially now that you have almost no ability to protect yourself."
It turns out that there is no peace and tranquility on this plain, and there are countless dangers hidden there.
Out of curiosity, Li Ye continued to ask, "Oh? Dad, I came all the way here before and didn't see any danger."
"That's because you're lucky. I've lived here all my life. I've seen too many young people like you who didn't listen and didn't come back. In the end, they were torn to pieces by the demons on the plains."
"demon?"
Li Ye's heart moved and he asked calmly.
"If you encounter a demon, even an iron bull will probably be in trouble. Therefore, on weekdays, the young and middle-aged men in the village hunt around the village during the day and never dare to go far."
The devil seemed to be described as terrifying and terrifying in the village chief's mouth, but in Li Ye's ears, he suddenly understood.
"A monster? I didn't expect that besides humans, there are also monsters in this world."
Sure enough, after careful inquiry, Li Ye was able to confirm that the demon the villagers talked about was undoubtedly the monster.
In other words, it's not even a monster, it's just an ordinary ferocious beast!
"A ferocious beast? Unfortunately, I am just like an ordinary person now. If I encounter one, it will be really dangerous."
Just spending time here will undoubtedly not help. In the end, Li Ye decided to take a risk.
When they heard that Li Ye was leaving the village, many people in the village tried to dissuade him. Especially Tieniu, who had become familiar with Li Ye in the past few days, even shouted that he wanted to go with Li Ye. Perhaps he was worried.
his safety.
However, Li Ye certainly would not involve the people here. After persuasion, he got a simple map from the village chief.
This is a map of the entire plain, but it looks very simple. You can vaguely see a city about a thousand miles away from where he is.
"Li Ye, although there are rumors that there is a holy city there, it's a pity that I, Tieniu, will never have the chance to see it in my life. But I heard that there are many powerful martial arts masters in the holy city, who can easily kill those on the plains.
Demon, if you are lucky enough to go there, I hope you can ask those people to eliminate those demons on the plain."
Holy city?
Li Ye nodded, and after preparing some weapons for self-defense, left the village.
Following the direction pointed by the map, I felt helpless and forced a smile in my heart.
"Thousands of miles, this is still a rough distance."
This distance, under normal circumstances, would not even take a day to reach, but now, with only two legs, he could only rely on the most primitive way to move forward on foot.
For the whole day, Li Ye didn't see what the villagers called the devil, which made him feel a little strange.
But just as it was getting dark, he finally understood why before leaving, the group of villagers warned him that he could only go during the day, and that he must find a safe and suitable campsite before dark at night.
Black gas emerged from many places on the ground, slowly forming looming shadows.
If you look closely, you can see that these black shadows still retain their human form, but you can't tell what they are at all.
"Dark spirit?"
Seeing these dark shadows, Li Ye's heart skipped a beat!
He really didn't expect that the demons people here call are not as simple as ferocious beasts, but actually dark spirits!
The so-called dark spirit is actually an evil thing that evolves after the soul of a person after death cannot be sublimated and is contaminated with the aura of evil due to various reasons.
Li Ye had only seen this kind of thing in ancient books. This was the first time in reality. If anything, everything in front of him was reality.
Whoosh!
Before leaving the village, Li Ye brought a pair of bows and arrows and a short knife. When he shot an arrow, it passed directly through the bodies of the dark spirits without any effect.
"Sure enough, it is rumored that the body of the dark spirit is somewhere between the spiritual body and reality, and ordinary weapons are not lethal to them at all."
Since he knew it was useless, Li Ye didn't waste any time.
At this time, the formed dark spirits had discovered him.
A sound like ultrasonic waves made Li Ye feel that his ears were almost pierced, and he quickly shook away the dozens of dark spirits that appeared in front of him.
Along the way, you can see some dark spirits appearing from time to time, not only human-shaped ones, but also animal-shaped ones.
Obviously, no matter whether they are humans or ferocious beasts, once they die, they will be bound by this land and eventually transform into these evil creatures.
Now his body, strange fire and cultivation have disappeared, but there is only one thing that still remains.
Blood pupils!
Li Ye's eyes slowly turned blood red, and in an instant, he could see those evil dark spirits making sounds that were almost like screams. Many of them gave up chasing Li Ye and stayed away.
Those that are closer will disappear into smoke and evaporate directly.
"Fortunately, the power of the blood pupil is still there, otherwise it would really be a bit uncertain."
Night has fallen, and there are countless dark spirits in front of him, making Li Ye's scalp numb.
The only thing that made him happy was that under the blood eyes, these dark spirits did not dare to approach at all, and even stayed away from them, as if they were quite afraid of this kind of power in him.
In the next few days, Li Ye hardly took a moment's rest day and night.
As he went deeper and deeper into the plain, Li Ye discovered a very strange place.
The number of dark spirits is increasing, and many of them are almost condensing into entities.
You must know that the darker the dark spirit is, the weaker its power is. Some dark spirits that are almost physical, even some innate masters among humans, will be torn apart by these evil creatures in an instant, and the essence and blood in them will be swallowed up.
.
"Is there any secret in the Holy City?"
Shaking his head, after a few days, a huge city finally appeared in front of him.
This was not the largest city he had ever seen in his life, but just standing in front of it, he could feel waves of terrifying aura rushing towards him.
The entire holy city was lifeless, and there were no martial arts masters living in it as I had heard before.
When Li Ye entered, he found that the entire holy city was actually an empty city!
But soon, he discovered some clues that something was not quite right.
