Starting from Scavengers to Cultivate Immortals

Chapter 192 Wind Clan
As Xu Chen said, he took out a ceramic teapot.

These teapots and cups are the most common porcelain among the people. Xu Chen just bought a few random ones in Nanyang City. He was going to brew some spirit tea brought back from Yuqing Palace, but he rarely used it, mainly because he was usually lazy. He found it troublesome to boil water, and besides, he was young and didn't have much interest in drinking tea by himself. If he had the time to drink tea, he might as well study about refining weapons and spells.

Looking at this strange and smooth ceramic teapot, the woman's eyes glowed, she licked her lips with her tongue and nodded, "This thing is so exquisite, the patriarch might like it, by the way, what is in this cup, it's such a pure color, I'm Can I drink it?"

Xu Chen thought for a while and shook his head, "This kind of thing is called water. I don't know if you can drink it. You can try it."

The woman was even more strange: "Isn't the water all black? Could it be water from the mortal world?"

Xu Chen nodded and said, "That's right. This is the water from the mortal realm. I bring it with me to quench my thirst. I dare not drink anything from the underworld, so I can only drink this."

The woman hesitated for a moment, brought the cup to her mouth, took a small sip, her eyes lit up suddenly, then took another sip, then took another sip, and finally raised her head and put the cup on her face, draining the last drop of water Pour it into your mouth and swallow it, then let out a long breath and said:
"What a pure breath. We have never drank such delicious water. If you can send the elder a pot of water, I think he will take you to the ancestral temple to help you find the way back."

Xu Chen couldn't laugh or cry.

Unexpectedly, this worthless mountain spring water became a treasure in the underworld.

However, the woman's words made him heave a sigh of relief. It seems that today's rescue operation was not in vain. Up to now, the information he has obtained has far exceeded his expectations.

Not long after, Xu Chen and the woman left the cave on a clamshell boat, and under the guidance of the woman, they plunged into the boundless black wind and disappeared.

Sitting in the clamshell boat, the woman was extremely shocked by this strange thing.

Xu Chen was also very curious. He had encountered this clam shell in the so-called Styx River in the sky. He did not expect the woman to say that this was the first time she had seen it in her life.

She has seen a lot of clam shells, but she has never encountered one that is so big and can fly.

The two were on their way while communicating.

Although this woman is tall and mighty, and has a casual and hot personality, her name is quite normal, even a little surprising, called Feng Feiyi.

After the two briefed their names, they told how they came in, and Feng Feiyi also told a lot about Minghuang that she knew.

So Xu Chen gradually understood.

In fact, the so-called natives here are not real people from the underworld. Their ancestors came here from the mortal world a long time ago, and they did not get lost, but to guard the mortal world.

At that time, it was said that there was a fixed road between the mortal world and the underworld, and the two worlds could communicate normally, and there were frequent wars between the two worlds, so the human race built a city here and arranged powerful masters to garrison it.

What surprised Xu Chen even more was that Minghuang did not belong to the underworld at first, but belonged to the mortal world.

The Styx River is the boundary river between the mortal world and the underworld.

The current appearance here is caused by the erosion of the breath of the underworld.

And the people who stayed here were also gradually eroded by the ghost energy in the battle with the ghost beasts, and finally got lost here. It has been passed down for thousands of years, and there is very little normal human breath in them, but their ancestors still keep their ancestors in mind for generations. , guarding this desolate area, and taking killing the beasts as their own responsibility, it has been passed down to this day, and it has been passed down for countless generations, and the number of people is getting smaller and smaller.

Feng Feiyi said that their tribe now has less than 200 members.

Some other nearby human tribes also had fewer and fewer people.

At the beginning, humans built many large cities here, but they were abandoned and eroded into ruins by the ghost energy. The clothes they wore, the magic weapons such as flying fork bows and arrows and storage crystals were actually handed down from ancient times. Some superficial human skills, among which a large number of skills for making magic weapons have been lost, and they even don't know how to use spells.

Because the breath of the underworld makes it impossible for human beings to cultivate.

However, they still accumulated a lot of new knowledge in the battle with the ghost beasts. They can use the ghost beasts and some items from the underworld to grow food and make weapons, and reproduce from generation to generation.

Xu Chen was shocked by these bizarre news.

Unexpectedly, when he entered here by accident, he discovered a secret that was unknown to the outside world and had been buried for thousands of years.

If all of this is true, doesn't it mean that the underworld has been constantly eroding the mortal world?

In this way, it is not difficult to understand that there are places like Heifengling and Donghuang Xuyuan.

However, it is also obvious that those high-ranking real immortals in this situation did not stand idly by, but have been preventing this kind of thing from deteriorating.

They seized the ancient fierce beasts and imprisoned them in some places where the dark energy leaked, so as to suppress the speed of the dark energy leakage.

However, this approach cannot solve the problem once and for all.

This may also be the reason why the black wind ravages the soul beast catastrophe every few thousand years in the mortal world.

The Taiyuan Gate back then may also have been destroyed because of a change in the ban that suppressed the passage to the underworld.

The black mist seems to be boundless, but the descendants of the human race living here are already familiar with the environment here, so under the guidance of Feng Feiyi, Xu Chen pushed the clamshell boat to adjust its direction continuously, and after flying for two hours, entered the into a dark canyon.

The two sides of the canyon are steep and narrow, as if a crack torn out of thin air, the more it goes down, the narrower it becomes, and some places are even only a few dozen feet wide, and like a bottomless abyss, Xu Chen feels it more and more as he flies. Terrified, it flew back and forth for about a moment, and after passing through a doorway that was obviously dug by hand, the front suddenly lit up, and a relatively flat valley basin appeared.

What surprised Xu Chen the most was that most of the black fog in the valley had disappeared, and there was still a faint flickering white light on the surrounding mountain walls. In addition to the lacquered rocks and soil, there are many strange plants planted in the canyon, like weeds and vines, the color is mainly black, but Xu Chen did not feel any spiritual fluctuations, which are obviously unique to the wilderness species.

“This place is really nice!”

After wandering and flying in this boundless and dark place for several days, Xu Chen couldn't help being a little surprised when he suddenly saw such a clear environment with plants.

Feng Feiyi didn't know what Xu Chen was talking about, but he still explained with his spiritual sense: "This is where we live and live, it's called Fengxia City."

Xu Chen was stunned for a moment and asked full of doubts: "I don't see anyone living here, where is the city?"

The woman pointed to a place with the most obvious white light in the valley and said: "We all live in caves, and there is the entrance, but there was a real city in this valley, but it has been abandoned for a long time, you can still see some of it if you look carefully. trace."

Hearing this, Xu Chen let go of his spiritual sense and looked carefully in the valley. Sure enough, he could see some abandoned ruins among the black rocks, soil and strange plants growing. clues.

"At the beginning, this city was very tall, with tens of thousands of people living in it. It is said that it was built all the way to the ground above. It was destroyed under the attack of ghost beasts, and it was rebuilt several times. Finally, it was completely abandoned. The air is constantly eroding, and the outside is gradually becoming unsuitable for living, so our ancestors dug up the mountains, and now we all live in caves..."

While Feng Feiyi was explaining, Xu Chen had already controlled the clamshell boat to fly across the valley quickly, and flew to the place where the white light was the brightest. Sure enough, he found a cave more than ten feet high, surrounded by huge stone bricks. In the appearance of the gate, there are many glowing stones inlaid on the stone bricks, and there are a lot of red patterns on them, which also look like some kind of runes.

Just when Xu Chen stopped to observe the cave, suddenly a few powerful soul breaths came one after another, hitting the clamshell boat heavily, and at the same time, several figures emitting red light rushed out from the cave, and in the blink of an eye several figures wearing A tall man in the same tight armor with a pair of red wings hanging behind his back appeared in front of Xu Chen, both holding huge flying forks in their hands, looking very nervous.

As the clam shell opened, when Xu Chen and Feng Feiyi stood up from inside, several men became more nervous and excited, they flew up together to surround the clam shell, yelling vigilantly at Feng Feiyi , seems to be full of doubts and rebukes.

Xu Chen didn't speak, just stood in the shell with his hands behind his back.

Feng Feiyi opened his wings and flew out. After communicating with the men for a while, the men calmed down a little. A few tyrannical breaths fell on Xu Chen, and after another round of observation without dead ends, One of the most powerful looking guys jumped onto the clamshell boat, pointed at Xu Chen with a giant fork, looked down at him, and let out a threatening roar from his mouth.

Looking at this guy who was almost half taller than himself, Xu Chen's vitality was slightly released to protect his body, and the same powerful spiritual consciousness blocked the man's unscrupulous spirit pressure.

Xu Chen's resistance seemed to have angered the man. The red pattern on the tight leather jacket on his body began to flicker, and clusters of red halos began to flow. The thick arms suddenly exerted force, and the giant fork pierced forward half a foot, almost It was about to stab Xu Chen's body.

Feng Feiyi came up angrily and pushed the man away, and there was another burst of yelling. Finally, the man put away his giant fork and stepped back, but he still stared at Xu Chen vigilantly. Unidentified humans are very nervous.

Feng Feiyi looked at Xu Chen with an apologetic face and said: "Sorry, this guy is called Feng Zhao, he didn't mean anything malicious, it's just because your appearance and breath are too weird, he was worried about danger, because there are still many people in the cave. Weak children and the elderly."

Xu Chen smiled and waved his hands and said: "I can understand, don't worry, I have absolutely no malice and will not threaten anyone, just take me to see the patriarch and elders, as long as I find the way back, I will leave here soon .”

Feng Feiyi nodded, and explained to Feng Zhao and others for a while, but finally Feng Zhao got out of the way with an ugly face, Xu Chen stepped out of the clamshell boat, took a few steps in the air, and landed on the stone brick floor in front of the cave.
