Prehistoric: The female saint Shiji, brilliant and talented

Chapter 402 Return to the Outside World, the Land of Death

"So that's how it is." Houyi and Xuanyuan suddenly realized.

"Which sect are you from? We have stayed here long enough and really want to return to the outside world." Several other old men urged.

"We are independent people who traveled the universe and came here. We heard that there were opportunities here, so we ventured in, hoping to find our own opportunities." Houyi said.

"Alas, the Immortal Ruins is extremely dangerous. If you are weak, you can't even get in, let alone find treasures."

They sighed again.

"Grandpas, I would like to ask, besides all kinds of rare treasures, what other secrets does this fairyland have?" Xuanyuan couldn't help asking.

Several elders were silent, then shook their heads and said, "The Immortal Ruins Land opens three times every hundred years. From the second time on, every time it opens, it will become a land of death where no one can survive, so you must be careful."

"Every time the Immortal Ruins opens, many powerful creatures pour in. In the past few decades, I don't know how many strong people have died here."

Their eyes were deep as they spoke.

Xuanyuan and Houyi felt a chill in their hearts. This place of immortal ruins was so strange and unpredictable that there was such a terrifying killing formation.

"Old man, can you see the indigenous people here?" Houyi asked.

"Natives? Are you talking about the demon tribe?" one of them asked back.

Hou Yi nodded and said, "Yes, that's them."

The old men shook their heads and said, "I haven't seen it."

This made Houyi frown. Since these old men knew about this place, they must be very familiar with it.

"Dear elders, I have some doubts. Could you please tell me?" Xuanyuan asked again.

"You ask." They nodded.

"It is said that an immortal once passed away here and left behind many treasures. Is this true?" Xuanyuan asked.

The old men shook their heads and said, "Immortal? We have never heard of it."

This sentence aroused the suspicion of Hou Yi and his companions. Could it be that there were no immortals here? They showed a suspicious expression.

"We don't know either. Perhaps there are no immortals in this world anymore." Someone sighed.

"The land of Immortal Ruins is a world of its own. This space is vast and boundless. We are just low-level people in this mountain range and are not familiar with it at all." Someone shook his head.

Houyi and Xuanyuan were shocked. The news was too shocking. If it were to get out, it would definitely cause a huge uproar.

This space is vast and boundless. They have lived here for many years, but they didn’t even know that this is the place of immortal ruins.

This place is too big and no one dares to trespass.

"Where are you from?" someone asked.

"Bei Mo, we came from Bei Mo." Hou Yi replied.

"Northern Desert?" Several old men frowned and said, "Northern Desert is very far from here, and there are monsters everywhere, and the environment is harsh. How did you get here?"

Xuanyuan smiled, took out a few pills, and said, "We have taken pills to resist the cold."

Several old men were surprised and looked at it carefully. They all showed astonishment and were shocked. They said, "It is indeed extraordinary. What grade of medicine is this?"

"These pills were made by the Holy Emperor. Their specific effects are not yet known, but they can indeed resist severe cold." Xuanyuan said with a smile.

"hiss"

Several elderly people gasped and looked incredulous.

Although they have lived long enough, they have only lived in the area around the Northern Desert and are not familiar with places outside the Northern Desert.

"Are the monsters in the Northern Desert very scary?" someone asked.

"It's not just horrible, it's terrifying. Ordinary people like us will die if we encounter it." An old woman with a pale face said nearby.

Several people talked and told them what had happened in the past few years, which surprised Houyi and Xuanyuan.

There are actually dozens of villages in this mountain range, all of which are the descendants of the villagers who were wiped out that year.

These people are simple and honest, and have no hostility, because they know that if they contact the outside world, they will be attacked by monsters.

Although there are quite a few villagers here, they are basically ordinary people and cannot compete with those terrifying creatures.

In the past few days, people in the village have gradually woken up and gathered here to welcome the two.

"We are late, but it is worth the trip to be here." Houyi said with a smile.

"Yes, if it weren't for the warnings from the seniors, we would have almost fallen into the monster's lair."

In the village, everyone warmly entertained Houyi and Xuanyuan, and at the same time asked Houyi about the situation in the outside world.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this world is too big, and there are many myths and legends. You must believe them."

Hou Yi laughed loudly and said, "Our world is different from your world and is full of mysteries. In our world, there are ancient immortals and even Daluo Jinxian, who are many times stronger than the so-called immortals you talk about."

His words immediately caused a huge sensation and triggered a huge shock. Everyone in the village was shocked.

"Do you have gods and demons here?" someone asked impatiently.

"Gods and demons? We have many of them here." Houyi said proudly.

When everyone in the village heard this, they all showed shocked expressions.

These people are just ordinary people who have never even seen immortals, let alone the legendary gods and demons.

They felt like they were dreaming and didn't want to believe it was real.

"Gods and demons, what is that?" they were curious.

"Do you know what gods and demons represent?" Houyi asked.

Everyone shook their heads in confusion.

"He is the overlord of this world, commanding billions of lives, high above, overlooking the world."

Hou Yi's voice was so loud that it echoed throughout the entire mountain range.

"Do you know why gods and demons are so high up?"

"Why?" everyone asked.

Hou Yi said: "The reason why gods and demons are so high up is because they control all the resources in this world and possess power that attracts worldwide attention."

"So that's it." The villagers suddenly realized.

"What else?" someone asked.

"The reason why gods and demons are so high is because they have long lifespans and can exist forever," Houyi added.

"The gods and demons have endless lifespans, and can be said to be immortal. They can do whatever they want." Xuanyuan said.

They had been chatting very happily with this group of people these days and had no defenses against them at all.

After all, these people were of low status and posed no threat to them at all.

"I've heard people say that gods and demons are fighting for the elixir of life. Can they really be immortal?" someone asked.

Hou Yi smiled faintly and asked, "Elixir of Life?" He shook his head and said, "That kind of thing only exists in legends. It is impossible for it to appear in our world. Even if the legendary medicine appears occasionally, it is extremely rare and worth a country. No one is willing to sell it."

"Do you know where the road to immortality is?" Xuanyuan suddenly asked.

Hou Yi remained silent for a long time before he sighed and said, "Our world has been separated from the fairyland you mentioned for a long time, and we cannot embark on the path to the fairyland."

"Do you know if there are other living beings in our world?" Xuanyuan asked again.

"Fairyland, is there any other place?" Houyi and others were shocked.

This is the question everyone wants to know, but unfortunately, no one can answer it. "The fairyland is vast and boundless, many times larger than this world. Perhaps there is an even more vast world, but we don't know it yet."

"We live on the edge of the fairyland, and now that the fairyland is open, this is an opportunity, but also a disaster. If the creatures of the fairyland come out, it will set off a bloody storm."

There was worry in Houyi's voice.

"Then what should we do?"

"We are just ordinary people. Apart from hunting in the mountains and forests, we usually stay in the village. There shouldn't be any danger, right?"

"There are three thousand states in our world, and each state is vast and prosperous, but we dare not set foot in them because there are too many powerful creatures living there."

Hou Yi sighed and said, "According to records, every time the fairyland is opened, there will always be a large number of strong people pouring into the depths of the fairyland, wanting to find fortune."

"The ending is often tragic. Whether it's humans, demons, or other powerful creatures, they will eventually die and become food."

"Those people are crazy. They will do anything to achieve immortality, even killing living beings."

"Although our world is poor, it is not so poor that we need to become food for others."

"Although our place is sparsely populated, we are not someone who can be bullied by anyone." Houyi sneered, and a bright light burst out from his body.

Everyone was in awe. Houyi's aura was terrifying, as if the God of War had descended, and they couldn't help but worship him.

"Senior, I heard that many saints died in the depths of the Immortal Realm. Could it be that you are from the depths of the Immortal Realm?"

Someone asked cautiously. They looked at Houyi and others and the more they looked, the more familiar they seemed to me.

Houyi and others nodded. This matter could not be concealed and would be exposed sooner or later, so it was better to admit it outright.

"The saints fell because they touched taboos and were suppressed by others." Houyi told everyone.

Everyone was shocked to find that the depths of the fairyland were not so beautiful.

"My dear brother, you have just returned from the depths of the fairyland. You must have made a lot of money. May I ask where is the trading market here?"

"Our economy is extremely poor here. We only have various wild fruits and specialties." Someone suggested.

"Oh? There are also specialties?"

Everyone was surprised. They didn't expect that there would be such specialties in this remote mountain range.

"Yes, it's at my house. Why don't I take you to see it?" said the village chief with a smile.

"Then please lead the way, old man."

The village chief led the way and introduced Houyi and others into the village.

The buildings in the village are dilapidated, the houses are very short, the walls are mottled, and they look a bit old.

But people don't mind at all, because it is very peaceful here, without fighting or combat, which makes people relax and feel peaceful.

"What specialties do we have here?" Xuanyuan asked.

The village chief smiled and said, "Just follow me and I'll introduce you."

"Okay." Houyi said.

The village chief took Houyi and others through the village and came to the courtyard to the north of the village.

"It's here." The village chief pointed to the garden in the yard.

When they walked into the yard, they found that it was planted with various plants.

Among them, the most eye-catching is the towering ancient tree with golden leaves, sparkling with brilliant brilliance, emitting majestic essence, filled with fragrance, and refreshing the heart.

It is rooted in the soil, with dense branches that block the sunlight and provide cool shade.

"This is a spiritual tree that can produce magical fruits." The village chief said with a smile.

Houyi and others were shocked. The fairy fruit was a rare treasure that could prolong life and increase strength.

“When was this ancient tree planted here?”

Houyi and others walked around the fairy tree and observed it carefully.

"It has hundreds of years of history," said the village chief.

Houyi and others were surprised. The fairy tree had been growing for hundreds of years, which really shocked them.

“Although our world is barren, this fairy tree has strong vitality and is still standing strong,” the village chief said with emotion.

"The immortal fruit of the immortal tree contains extraordinary essence, which is of great help to the body of the body cultivators, especially you. After taking it, you can be reborn and cleanse your marrow and remove your hair."

Everyone was surprised. This was indeed not simple and was a great fortune for those who practiced body cultivation.

"Senior, can I pick them?" Xuanyuan asked.

"You can try, but if it doesn't work, don't force it." The village chief said with a smile.

He could see that Xuanyuan and the others were so strong that even the ferocious beasts in the fairyland could not harm them.

"Okay." Xuanyuan was excited and ran straight to the fairy tree.

Boom~
He stretched out his hands and grabbed the fairy tree, intending to pull it out and pick the fairy fruit.

However, the fairy tree did not move at all and was as solid as a rock. No matter how hard he tried, it did not shake at all.

"So hard." Houyi and others exclaimed.

Xuanyuan's fist can even break mountains and rivers, which shows how powerful he is.

But at this moment, the fairy tree did not move at all, not even its roots trembled at all.

"Let's work together to pull it out." Xuanyuan roared, trying his best.

Everyone also tried their best to pull out the fairy tree.

But the result was disappointing, the fairy tree was still standing tall and majestic, without moving at all.

"This tree is too strong. We can't move it at all." Everyone said bitterly.

"The fairy tree has strong vitality. Even in the depths of the fairyland, few creatures can destroy it. It is understandable that we cannot move it." said the village chief.

"Senior, you are knowledgeable. Is there any way to move this big tree?" someone asked the village chief.

"We have two ways to move this fairy tree here." The village chief thought for a moment and then said.

"Please tell me in detail, senior."

"The second method is to mine and dig a tunnel in the mine to reach the fairy tree."

"To dig up the fairy tree, you need tools. We have hammers and hoes here. You can use them."

The villagers took out various instruments and handed them to Houyi and others.

Houyi and his companions were delighted. This was like finding a pillow just as a sleepy person had found their dream. The gift came at the right moment.

"Thank you, senior." Houyi clasped his fists and expressed his gratitude.

Everyone left the village and returned to the mountains and forests.

"You stay outside, I will go find some tools for digging." Houyi said, and went into the forest alone.

"This village is very ordinary, how could a fairy tree appear here?" Li Mu wondered.

They arrived at the entrance of the village, and the village chief brought a few strong men to introduce the fairy tree to them.

"The fairy tree. According to legend, an immortal founded a sect here and left behind a great way, which gave birth to the fairy tree. The tree has miraculous powers and is a treasure that body cultivators dream of." said the village chief.

"If that's the case, if we move the fairy tree away, won't that mean we're occupying this place?" Li Mu pondered. (End of this chapter)
