After the big roc flew into the northern realm of the fairy world, Laozi and Zhuangzi had a feeling of empathy.
"The giant monster deep in the north...is no longer here."
The two of them had been entrusted by Zhao Huaizhong to investigate the northern border last time, and there was nothing unusual at that time.
But when I came back this time, I felt there had been a change.
Dapeng continued to fly north, crossing the sea.
A quarter of an hour later, an endless stretch of land appeared in front of him, and as far as the eye could see was a land covered with white snow, with thick ice beneath the ground.
This is an ice shelf continent made entirely of ice.
The surrounding temperature is so cold that if ordinary people came here, they would freeze to death in an instant.
But there are many cold-resistant exotic beasts living on the continent.
This is like an ecological world independent of the fairy world.
Deep in the ice tens of thousands of feet below the ground, there lives the Kraken.
It controls everything in this land of ice and snow.
All things rise and fall according to its will...
"The giant beast of the North Sea has reached the realm of creation since ancient times. It has always wanted to use the land in the far north to evolve an independent world, thereby breaking through creation and becoming immortal.
Last time I came here, the giant monster of the North Sea was dormant and sleeping under the ice." Zhuang Zhou said.
Zhao Huaizhong took out the Kunlun Mirror and shined it under the ice.
A ray of light from the Kunlun Mirror penetrates the ice, showing the scene in the deepest part of the ice.
The outline of a huge creature emerged below the ice.
It is somewhat like a combination of a dragon snake and a fish, with six heads and eight tails, the body and head of a dragon snake, and the tail spread out like a fish, like flying wings.
Its size is extremely majestic, almost as big as the northern continent.
Such a big creature, excluding Zhuang Zhou's dream soul, which is the big roc at his feet, Zhao Huaizhong had only seen the old turtle that carried the Kunlun Heavenly Palace before.
The North Sea monster under the ground has a dark blue body, densely covered with scales, and has twelve closed eyes on its six heads with beards and horns like a dragon.
The giant monster under the ice is just a remnant, with nothing inside. The North Sea monster has disappeared.
"The biggest head in the middle has a wound on it!" Zhuang Zhou said.
There is a big crack between the giant monster's eyebrows. It may be that it crawled out from the middle of its eyebrows during the process of shedding. Another possibility is that...its essence, blood and soul were lost to another being.
It was absorbed and eaten through the wound on the forehead.
In short, all that is left of this giant creature under the ice is its empty shell.
The real Kraken is dead, or... left here.
No matter what kind of change it is, it is most likely related to the demon lord.
"If it leaves behind a legacy and leaves, it is likely that it has been refined into a clone by the demon master, otherwise it would not abandon the half-refined northern ice continent and ignore it.
If he is killed, his energy and blood should also be absorbed by the demon master and become part of the source of energy and blood for him to evolve into an immortal demon soldier."
Saint Kong looked far away, looked at the ice-covered continent, and then said to the bottom: "You will report to me the changes that have taken place here."
He also said: "You all come."
It is still the sage word of Confucianism, with the voice speaking out and the heaven and earth cooperating.
Under this island, changes suddenly occurred.
A force emerged under the earth's veins, and the remains of the North Sea monster suddenly shrank into a ray of light, broke through the ice, rose from the ground, was shrunk into a magic light ball only as big as a fist, and floated in front of everyone.
On the ice and snow continent below, there are many animals with a drop of blood leaking out of their bodies.
This is the same as when I checked the secrets inside the demon clan before.
The blood of many animals living in the northern territory overflowed, revealing to Zhao Huaizhong and others the secrets of their past and present lives imprinted in their blood.
In the memories of these northern creatures, everything in the north is business as usual, with no unexpected changes.
In addition, there are several extremely powerful creatures in the northern land. They are completely unable to control themselves under the Holy Word of Kong Sheng. They can't help but rise into the air and become prisoners.
These strange beasts in the realm of immortals and demons were restrained by the power of Confucianism's lips and tongue, and fell into a trap in front of Zhao Huaizhong.
Confucius said: "The Emperor of Qin wants to come to the north to capture strange beasts and guard the borders of Qin.
I will also try my best, and Emperor Qin will take these strange beasts first."
Among the exotic animals captured by Confucius, there was one rare species that was not common.
It was a strange beast whose shape was slightly similar to that of a unicorn, but its mouth was sharp and slightly curved, like a long beak. It looked very ferocious, and its whole body was pitch black.
Its tail swung, and streaks of lightning exploded.
This is a dragon, commonly known as looking at the sky and roaring, and riding on the dragon.
Because it is good at observing many changes, it has the habit of looking in all directions. On the top of some pillars there are sculptures of pedaling dragons roaring towards the sky, which is this kind of beast.
It is regarded as a strange beast that conveys the will of God and the sentiments of the people (supervises the diligent administration of the emperor), and has the responsibility of inspection.
According to myths and legends, the mount of Guanyin Bodhisattva is the "Chaotian Jian".
However, this Jiao is not yet fully grown up, and is only in the realm of a true immortal.
When it reaches adulthood, it will reach a level comparable to that of a golden immortal.
These strange beasts that Kong Shengren caught personally all had their own origins. Zhao Huaizhong was disrespectful but deserved it. Otherwise, he would have caught them himself and happily accepted them together with the remains left by the giant North Sea monster.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Dapeng appeared over an island deep in the North Sea.
This island is where the Nine-Headed Bird, the Ghost Vehicle, lives.
There was a layer of black air flowing across the entire island, but it was also empty.
There is no trace of the ghost car Nine-Headed Bird for a long time.
Really hammered.
The northern part of the fairyland has quietly undergone some changes.
The powerful overlord-level beasts are all gone.
When Zhao Huaizhong and others left the northern border, they prepared to go back to their respective homes. When they left, Saint Kong left a note on his homework and said: "Don't forget to go back and think about how the demon lord can resurrect the demon soldiers. Next time we meet, we will discuss this matter together. .”
Zhao Huaizhong responded with a smile, took out the formation disk, connected with the Immortal Palace, and disappeared on top of Dapeng with the female fox.
After he left, Zhuang Zhou smacked his lips and said, "I just talked about how to practice the dream soul technique to derive the dream world in the body. On the way to the north, Emperor Qin and I tried to practice it in the body while chatting. You wait. Can you feel it?
The breath in his body was circulating, and for a moment or three, there was a wave of fluctuation unique to the dream soul world.
Gu Qi
The dream world in his body quickly improved, from the blessed land of dreams to the cave of dreams, and then to the world of small thousand dreams.
This speed of cultivation and talent are indeed rare..."
"If Emperor Qin can be promoted to immortality, he can cut off the fate of the demon clan and kill this demon master." Kong Qiu also said.
I stroked my beard and smiled: "Maybe you don't need to be promoted to immortality.
There is a wonderful power in his body that even I cannot fully see clearly. It is in harmony with Emperor Qin's soul and is of great help to Emperor Qin.
If he can reach the quasi-saint level of the final realm of creation, he may be able to kill the demon lord!"
Xianyang.
After Zhao Huaizhong returned, he came to the stone hall of the ancestral temple alone.
Summon the ancient altar.
He now has four bronze doors in his hand that seal the fragmented space of the underworld.
Two of them were opened by Lu Sheng, who was from the Penglai lineage, and collected the proceeds when the five-needle pine was fruiting. The other two were obtained before and have been preserved to this day.
At this time, Zhao Huaizhong put the two bronze doors he had obtained in the past on the altar together.
Last time, a bronze gate was sacrificed, and the Sentai Pillar gave back a lot.
If you sacrifice two fans at the same time this time, what will you give back?
After Zhao Huaizhong offered his sacrifice, the bronze gate was immediately taken away, and one could feel that it was once again sent to the underworld by the ancient altar.
In the underworld, the breath surges like a rising tide.
The underworld is just like when the ends of the earth are unsealed, the area and space are changing and growing.
A layer of clear light spread over the Sendai pillar, and the crack at the top of the pillar shrank again.
At the same time, the space on the other side connected to the ancient altar is the space where countless altars have been placed to receive the items obtained from sacrifices over the long years.
Chaos reigns here, and at the very core of the space, three special artifacts float in the thick chaos.
At this time, under the three artifacts, there was a very small object. After accepting the sacrifice from the two bronze doors on the altar, it suddenly disappeared from the space, was pushed by the immortal platform pillar, and fell into the hands of Zhao Huaizhong.
This time, two bronze doors were sacrificed, and the Immortal Pillar also dropped two items in return.
The first piece is a round bronze vessel as big as a palm.
The top of this object is slightly raised and the bottom is concave, like a reduced dome.
The front and back sides are engraved with different images of beasts. Some are well-known legendary creatures, while others have strange images that have never appeared in the narratives circulated by the world.
In addition, there are countless mantras engraved on this bronze vessel.
Unfortunately, this artifact had a long and narrow crack extending from the middle to the edge... Zhao Huaizhong held it in his hand and looked at it, his heart moved slightly.
He tapped the small gourd on his waist and took out the sealing wall.
The moment the sealing wall appeared, the newly acquired bronze artifact suddenly glowed and vibrated.
Clang!
It landed on the hole in the middle of the seal wall, which was the entrance to the Demon Refining Pot, and it happened to be a pot lid.
The lid of the Ten Thousand Demons Pot.
The combination of the two is a complete demon refining pot!
The next moment, inside the sealed wall, a copper kettle separated from the wall for the first time, taking on its true form.
During the process of it falling off, many of the incantations on the sealing wall were put back into the copper pot, and the sealing wall floated out and fell back into the wall on one side of the stone hall.
In Zhao Huaizhong's hand, there was a crude copper pot left.
Its ampulla is oval in shape, somewhat like a small tripod, with a bronze catch on the top. The shape is exquisite, like an open fish mouth.
There are curved ridges on all four sides of the cover. Extending outward from the edge of the cover, there are symmetrical curved snake patterns. At the neck of the vessel, they turn into symmetrical bird patterns.
On the cover and abdomen are symmetrical deformed scroll dragon patterns, as well as many other mysterious and unpredictable patterns that correspond to the principles of heaven and earth.
There are countless incantations and thunder and fire patterns engraved throughout the entire vessel.
The entire Demon Refining Pot is stained with rust and has an ancient charm.
The moment the lid of the pot fell on it, countless incantations on the demon refining pot began to light up at the same time.
Four bronze dragons crawled out of the pot, guarding the four sides.
They were lying on the mouth of the pot in a climbing-up posture, with their probes biting the lid tightly.
If the lid of the pot is removed, the four copper dragons will turn their heads and look down, their eyes emitting a faint green light, as if they are always paying attention to the changes in the pot, like guards.
Zhao Huaizhong held the bottom of the pot with one hand and looked at it over and over.
His eyes fell on the crack on the lid of the pot.
This should be the damage left by the demon refining pot after it collided with a demon clan artifact of the same grade in ancient times. I wonder if it can be repaired... Zhao Huai thought centrally.
Along with the demon refining pot lid, there is also a new ritual incantation, which is engraved around the fish mouth catcher in the middle of the pot lid.
However, due to the crack in the middle, the sacrificial incantation is incomplete and slightly missing.
Through this incantation, the fish mouth at the mouth of the pot can be controlled to open and close with the hand, which can be used to absorb and absorb various objects, demonstrating the power of the demon refining pot.
The second thing returned by the altar was also a bronze vessel. It was a bronze vial only about an inch high. It contained only one drop of blood of unknown effect.
To know exactly what kind of blood it is, we need to study it.
Xianyang Palace.
Zhao Huaizhong collected the proceeds from the sacrifice and returned to the palace. His thoughts were ups and downs, and he was still thinking about the immortality of the demon soldiers.
Since it is impossible to break the immortality of demon soldiers for the time being, if you change your mind, can you also have recurring undead soldiers under your command?
If it can, it can offset the advantages of the demon clan.
Zhao Huaizhong's fingers gently rubbed the imperial pen on the table.
Soon after, he took out two puppets he had made before.
These two puppets are the kind of puppets that resemble terracotta warriors. They are as tall as humans and have the same shape as the terracotta warriors and horses of later generations.
The Qin army is immortal... How can the Qin army be resurrected and almost immortal?
