Cultivation starts from being a ghost

Chapter 453
"No problem. It is said that Skull Island was formed 7 to [-] years ago. At that time, the vast sea continent was not what it is today. You humans were still in a sleepy state. Later, it seemed that there was a shocking war with visitors from outside domains, and many creatures died. , these yin veins were formed at that time..."

"Oh, a shocking battle?"

"Well, although there is no way to verify this news, there is this part of the memory passed down in our family. Our Golden Carp Clan was once strong back then, and our ancestors also participated in that battle!"

"Then do you know who those foreign visitors are?"

"This... I don't know, I only know that they are neither human nor demon!"

Qin Chuan nodded, no longer entangled in the ancient secrets, and asked about the specific situation of the Yin veins of Skull Island, "I see that the evil energy of Skull Mountain gathers and does not disperse. Could it be that there is a restraining formation?"

"There should be some, but I don't know whether it is formed naturally or artificially. Anyway, there are no restrictions on entering and exiting!"

"Are there any powerful ghosts in this yin vein?"

"Yes, most of them gather in the caves below the water surface. The ghosts in the caves above are not strong. In the past, this was the proving ground for a sect called Skeleton Gate!"

Qin Chuan still knew this, and he inquired carefully about the underwater situation. Although Jin Linger had checked several times, but because there were ghosts much stronger than her underwater, she only knew the situation on the outside. What is the situation, she can only speculate out of thin air.

"Brother Qin, I suggest you not to take risks, the dangers there are beyond your imagination!"

"Don't worry, I know what's in my heart!" Qin Chuan still intends to investigate. If Lao Bai and Situ Wuhui are trapped here, he can rescue him. Of course, with his cautious character, he must do some things before investigating. Prepare.

Next, the two made a deal, and Jin Ling'er was willing to help him lead the way, but he politely declined. In case of any danger, he had to take her into consideration, instead it would be more convenient for him to do it himself.

After staying on the island for more than ten days, I prepared a few treasures. After all, there are two worlds underwater and on land. Even a powerful spirit treasure is not as effective as a water thorn when it reaches the bottom of the water.

The first is a piece of fish scale armor, which is made of seventh-grade swordfish skin. In case of accident, even if there is no water-repelling beads, this armor can support it for a while.

The second magic weapon is a mysterious water blade made of Yinglong animal bones and aquamarine. This treasure can perform many attack methods such as sword shadow splitting, illusion giant blade, etc., and its power is not too affected by the water flow. .

The third treasure prepared is the water escape talisman and a few pieces of talisman. The water escape talisman can speed up the escape underwater. It is a good choice for escaping in danger, and the talisman can also buy a little buffer time at critical moments.

In addition, he also put a long-unused rare dragon-lock pocket within easy reach. This treasure is simply the nemesis of underwater creatures. He dared to go into the water to investigate, and this magic weapon was also his confidence.

Everything is ready, there is no rush to get into the water, but start with the water part of Skeleton Mountain.

The Skull Mountain wrapped in black mist is like a huge beehive, full of large and small caves, and ghost howls can be heard from time to time, but few ghosts come out to move.

Qin Chuan chose a relatively empty cave and walked in. The cold atmosphere made people shudder, there were some feces on the ground, and the top of the rock wall was densely covered with bats. The color of black and red is exactly the infamous page of blood phagocytosis.

As soon as he entered, bats flew towards him.

If there were only a small number of blood-devouring bats, the aura of body protection would be enough to resist them, but if hundreds of bats surrounded them together, the formation would be truly terrifying.

Qin Chuan was tightly wrapped from head to toe. Of course, he was not afraid of this thing. He swiped the Xuanshui Blade and swept it away. In a short while, the cave was filled with blood, and the bats smelled the blood and attacked even more frantically.

This will not work!
Being entangled with these bats not only consumes mana, but also delays time. The sparrow whistle was taken out, and the strange tone was like a lullaby, making people drowsy after listening to it. Those bats fell to the ground like rain It was instantly covered with a thick layer.

Soon the entrance of the cave calmed down, and while continuing to walk in, they released their spiritual senses to investigate. The evil spirit has a corrosive effect on the spiritual sense, and the exploration distance is limited, but this cave is not deep, only tens of feet. Except for a low-level ghost and calcified animal bones on the ground, there is nothing else.

After exiting this cave, he entered a small adjacent cave. As soon as he entered the cave, he suddenly stepped on something under his feet, and was immediately entangled in his legs by that thing.

Looking down, it was a five-foot-long bone snake, which was gnawing on the body-protecting aura. With a wave of the Xuanshui blade, the bone snake was cut in two pieces, but the snake's head did not loosen, and it was still gnawing.

His body shook, and the half-skeletal snake was thrown out. He continued to walk in, and was attacked by bats again, but this time the number was not many, so he killed them all directly.

Although this cave is not big, but the spiritual sense can't explore to the end, and there is a fork in the road. Qin Chuan walked in slowly. In the dark cave, his body protection aura played a little role in lighting. As a result, after walking about 150 feet, I came to a fork in the road, and suddenly a white shadow sprang out from the fork in the cave.

Qin Chuan reacted very quickly, kicked out with a "bang", and the white shadow ghost screamed and flew out backwards.

Upon closer inspection, it was found to be a human-shaped skeleton, whose white sternum was half shattered by this kick, but the skeleton quickly got up, with a glint in its eyes, and fled to the depths of the cave.

"Hehe, you still know how to be afraid!" Qin Chuan chased after him. After about ten feet, the front suddenly became clear. The space here was as big as three rooms. The water droplets above the cave wall and the phosphorescent light in the broken bones Reflecting each other, several pairs of cold eyes were staring at him.

With a scream, one of the human-shaped skeletons with bright red bones stabbed over with a bone blade, while the other skeletons attacked from both sides in a tacit understanding.

Of course, Qin Chuan didn't pay attention to these ghosts that hadn't yet become popular. The blade flashed, and all the skeletons were cut in half. A few green lights flew out from the broken skeletons, intending to flee. Flying out suddenly, sweeping towards these ghosts, all the ghosts were frozen in place and could not move.

Grabbing the ghost of the highest-level skeleton in his hand to search for the soul, he sighed faintly after a short time, and learned from the few remaining memories that these humanoid skeletons were all disciples of the original skeleton sect when they were alive. After the tide, he was used as cannon fodder by the sect and hid here for refuge, but he did not escape the fate of death in the end. He was injured by the blood-eating bats here, and finally turned into a skeleton demon.

No valuable information has been obtained, but the situation in this cave has been understood, so there is no need to investigate further.

Next, he explored five or six caves in a row, and encountered ghost attacks. Most of them were skeleton ghosts. The highest-level ghost had already reached the half-step ghost king state. Unfortunately, these ghosts have a strong sense of territory. It is impossible to get the whole situation of Skull Mountain from their scattered memories.

After exploring for a day, Qin Chuan gave up and continued to investigate. Such a place is a piece of cake for Lao Bai and Situ Wuhui, and it is impossible to trap them here.

After a night's rest, he decided to go into the water to investigate the next day.

At the turn of summer and autumn, the water temperature in other waters is moderate, but the waters around Skull Mountain are obviously much colder, because the heavy shade blocks the sun, and the sea water can only be neutralized unless there is a storm, but that kind of weather is not good. Suitable for diving.

Qin Chuan didn't care about the lack of warmth, and dived underwater along the steep cliff, avoiding the blue light released by the water droplets to isolate the sea water.

Just three feet into the water, a second-tier jellyfish attacked him. Xuanshuiren sent out a jade-colored light blade to kill the jellyfish. As soon as the jellyfish died, it was eaten by several giant shrimps.

After diving down to eleven or twenty feet, the first cave was discovered, and the spiritual consciousness was released, and the strong evil spirit quickly corroded the spiritual consciousness.

Qin Chuan frowned slightly. It is nothing to lose one or two divine senses, but if you lose too much, the primordial spirit will definitely be greatly affected. However, if you don't use your spiritual sense to detect, your vision is really limited, and you can't even react when you encounter danger. No chance.

After thinking for a while, he came up with an idea, raised his hand and summoned a beetle puppet, and let the puppet open the way ahead with a night pearl in its mouth. With its pair of oar-like wings, the paddling speed is really not slow.

A school of fish did not panic and run away because there was an extra "monster" behind them, they seemed to be accustomed to such a "monster" for a long time.

Four or five feet forward, there were two more forks ahead, Qin Chuan followed the fish into one of the branches, but after a while he found that he came out of another hole.

Feeling that he was "tricked" by a group of fish, a certain person became very vicious, the Xuanshui Blade issued more than a dozen blade lights, and dozens of unlucky fish died, but soon he regretted his "willfulness" and filled the air. His blood attracted nearby whale sharks.

On land, dozens of first- and second-tier whale sharks are nothing at all, but they are definitely a big trouble underwater. He re-drilled into the cave without saying a word, and those whale sharks are sharing their food. After the school of fish, they immediately set their sights on him, the prey, and chased after him.

The cave is not spacious, and the narrow place can only allow one whale shark to pass through at a time. Qin Chuan found the narrowest place, and killed the front one with his hands. Outside, stimulated by the blood energy, they bit the corpses of the same kind.

"Hehe, a beast is a beast!" He was secretly proud, but at this moment, a creepy feeling suddenly appeared in his heart, and when he turned around suddenly, a pair of huge green eyes were staring at him.

"Ah... what the hell is this?" Even though he was well-informed, he was startled by the strange creature not far away.

Staring at him was a huge head with no body, skin like moss, long loose hair flowing with the current.

"You...are a human race?" His voice was hoarse, and he was a little slurred, using a very ancient language.

"I am a human race, what race are you?"

"Giant Skull Race!"

"Giant-skull tribe?" Qin Chuan's mind turned sharply. He had never heard of such a tribe, but he had seen a giant tribe once in Taishi Realm.

"It's normal that you don't know me, I come from another world!"

"Another world, you... are you from the Demon Realm of the Upper Realm?"

"Wrong, I am from the underworld!"

Qin Chuan was shocked. When he was in Hades Sect, he had consulted the classics about other planes. The underworld is a special world. It is adjacent to the spiritual and demon realms of the upper realm, but it has a closer relationship with the so-called third plane. The close connection, exactly what the connection is, is not detailed in the classics, but the Pluto sect's exercises seem to have benefited from some inheritance from the underworld.

"Since you are from the underworld, why did you appear here?"

"I've been here a long time ago and I didn't wake up until recently, can you tell me what time it is?"

"A long time ago?" Qin Chuan thought of Jin Linger's mention of visitors from other lands, and his heart became more vigilant, "I don't know how to answer you, because each country in this world has its own way of recording years, and the world of cultivating immortals is not unified. time standard!"

"Country? What is this? Forget it, since you can't explain clearly, let me check your memory myself!" After speaking, the long loose hair suddenly swept over.

Qin Chuan hurriedly backed away, but the water flow became extremely viscous, and those hairs had already wrapped the mask cast by the water-avoiding beads in the blink of an eye, pulling him to a place close to the huge head.

"Swipe" the Xuanshui blade split the hair, and slashed with a backhand.

The huge head didn't dodge, it was cut straight, but it only left a clear cut mark on the moss-like skin, but not a drop of blood flowed out.

Before Qin Chuan could make the third strike, two black lights suddenly shot out from those gleaming green eyes. The black light went straight through the blue mask and came straight to the front door. The distance between the two sides was too close , although Qin Chuan reluctantly turned his head, he was still hit on the side of the face.

There was no trace left on the face, and there was no pain, but the black light was like two tiny poisonous snakes, directly burrowing into the sea of ​​consciousness, and then pounced on the primordial spirit.

At the very moment, a miniature tree suddenly appeared in the sea of ​​consciousness, and when it swept against the black light, the black light immediately dissipated without a trace.

Soul Eater Demon Light!Qin Chuan is too familiar with this thing, another person will definitely suffer heavy injuries, but the Three Treasure Tree is made of soul-nourishing wood, which happens to restrain each other with this soul-eating magic light. At the moment when the black light enters the sea of ​​consciousness, He knew the origin of this thing, and almost at the same time, the place between his eyebrows split open suddenly, and a blue lightning shot out.

The monster didn't expect that his soul-devouring magic light would meet its nemesis, let alone Qin Chuan's evil spirit eyes, and was hit by the evil thunder.

Compared with the powerful thunder and lightning spells, this thunder light is very weak, but there is a saying that "one thing drops one thing, and the brine is a bit of tofu". The head that could not be touched by Xuanshui blade just now was pierced by this lightning Hole.

The monster let out a miserable cry, turned around and fled to the depths of the cave quickly. Qin Chuan was not the one willing to suffer, and he was also very interested in the origin of the monster, so he put on a water escape talisman and chased after it.
