Abyss invasion? As a demon cultivator, I laughed.

When he saw the main city of Buddhism, Chu Xiu was shocked and frowned slightly.

The space in front of him was a square hole that was almost identical to Paradise Lost. I wonder if there was any connection between the two.

The main city is built in the center of this space. It is a huge city covering an area of ​​about hundreds of square kilometers.

Of course, most of these areas are industrial and agricultural areas, and the real residential areas only account for less than 5% of the total area. Looking around, there are large areas of farmland and factories, and many livestock can be seen farming on them.

However, these were all within Chu Xiu's expectations and did not surprise him much.

What really surprised him was that in the middle of this space, where the entire city's industrial area was located, there was a huge pipe spiraling up, rushing to high places like a circling dragon.

"That's where Tianlong is."

Liang Zhan explained from the side: "Every day at noon, Tianlong will return from outside the territory and bring back energy relics full of energy. It is with these relics that we can maintain a normal life."

As soon as he finished speaking, a "buzzing" sound suddenly came from the center of the main city, and the entire land began to shake.

People who were working near the main city stopped and knelt down facing the central passage, chanting Buddhist scriptures with pious expressions on their faces.

Liang Zhan seemed to want to kneel down instinctively, but as soon as his legs bent, he realized something. After looking at Chu Xiu who was wearing a mask, his legs straightened up again.

"Let's go and take a look." Chu Xiu said calmly.

"Yes." Liang Zhan responded.

Chu Xiu controlled the four-winged strange bird to land in an uninhabited area, and then walked towards the core area of ​​the factory with Liang Zhan and others.

The pipeline where Tianlong was located was heavily guarded, but Liang Zhan was so prestigious that the guards at the door recognized this rare martial arts wizard in a thousand years and the general who had guarded the front line for twenty years, so Chu Xiu and his party did not encounter much obstruction. Came to the frontline area where workers work.

There is a circular pipe that occupies almost half of the city. It is like a giant python entrenched on the ground. There are movable doors that can be opened on the steel pipe. Chu Xiu feels that it is a bit like the waiting area of ​​the high-speed rail on Blue Star, except that It is much larger, with a width of over three hundred meters and a length that forms a huge ring with a circumference of nearly twenty kilometers.

This ring wraps all the central areas of the main city, and along the ring is a circle of industrial areas. The main industrial facilities are built around the ring.

As Chu Xiu approached, the ground shook more violently, as if a huge monster was approaching quickly. Ordinary workers could not even stand firmly and needed to hold on to special handrails.

The vibration lasted for five minutes before slowly weakening. At the same time, Chu Xiu felt an extremely huge breath coming from the pipe.

It's just that he is using the Blood Demon clone now, so the feeling is not clear, but even so, he can confirm that there is definitely an extremely powerful creature hidden in the pipeline!

"laugh--"

At this time, a large amount of steam suddenly spurted out from the pipe, as if the heat that had been accumulated for a long time was finally released. Then, all the movable doors on the passage opened, revealing a dark "wall".

Yes, Chu Xiu can only use the word "wall" to describe it. Behind the movable door is a passage more than 20 meters long. At the end of the passage is a "wall" that cannot be seen at all, and the wall is inlaid with Densely packed energy relics.

The workers stepped forward and used special picks to skillfully pry the energy relics off the "wall". They carried the relics weighing more than ten kilograms back through the passage and handed them to the transporters. Then they took away the relics that had used up the energy. Blank energy relics are then loaded through the channel.

Each worker will be responsible for three movable doors, loading and disassembling hundreds of energy relics. This process will last about three or four hours, and then other workers will transport these energy relics to various places where they are needed.

Looking at the busy workers, Chu Xiu touched his chin and quickly made a decision: "Let's open a hole and take a look."

"Ah?" Liang Zhan was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted. He coughed lightly and strode out: "Everyone, I'll take a few minutes of your time. I have something to announce."

While Liang Zhan attracted the attention of others, Chu Xiu quietly slipped near the pipeline and found an uninhabited location.

With such a long pipeline, it is naturally impossible to have someone on guard everywhere. Most of the guards are just scattered near the industrial area.

As soon as Chu Xiu thought about it, a hole opened in his chest. He reached out and dug into his chest for a while, and took out a [Perfect] long sword of general rank.

Although the blood demon clone's strength is only at the peak of the vicious level, this is because it has just been born and has not had time to cultivate. The original level has actually reached the general level and can use general level equipment.

This provided Chu Xiu with a lot of convenience.

He exerted force with both hands, and the sword in his hand sank into the passage, and then moved downwards, quickly cutting a square opening.

This giant pipe made of alloy steel is as fragile as tofu in front of this powerful weapon.

However, although the material of this pipe was not good, it was really ridiculously thick. It took Chu Xiu nearly a quarter of an hour to dig nearly twenty meters in one go before he dug a hole.

"Twenty meters thick steel armor can prevent such a nuclear explosion." Chu Xiu couldn't help complaining.

At the end of the cave was the dark "wall" that Chu Xiu had seen from afar before.

Chu Xiu came forward and felt a chill rushing towards him. He touched it and felt it was cold to the touch. He didn't know what it was made of. He scratched it with his long knife again. However, this time, the perfect long knife that could cut even steel didn't leave even a scratch on the "wall".

"Is this thing a Tianlong?"

Chu Xiu looked around. The huge object, which was not sure whether it was the body of a Tianlong or something else, almost filled the passage. There was only a distance of less than one meter between them, but it was just enough to accommodate one person.

He jumped in and felt a chill enveloping his whole body. The temperature in the passage was extremely low, probably only minus ten degrees, and the further he walked in, the colder it became. The air seemed to be extremely thin. After walking a few steps, he felt short of breath.

"If an ordinary person were to come, he would be deprived of oxygen or hypothermia in just a few minutes."

"I really don't know where this passage leads to."

Chu Xiu touched his chin, and the more he thought about it, the more headache he had.

Both the gods and Liang Zhan said that Tianlong was the only existence that could lead to the outside world, which means that at present, it seems that there is only one way to leave through the pipeline.

However, this pipeline finally soared into the sky and penetrated into the height like a rocket. At present, it is still unknown how long it is.

Chu Xiu didn't have the ability to send more than 20,000 people into the sky.

"But the trial will not leave a dead end without a solution. The key should still be this 'Tianlong'."

After knowing the answer in his mind, Chu Xiu returned to the original route and exited the passage.

After reuniting with Liang Zhan, the two of them took the Buddhist supervisor to the Buddhist sect.

As for the few guards, they lurked nearby for support.

The Buddhist sect is far away from the central industrial park, in the middle of the rich area on the east side. From a distance, you can see a magnificent pagoda standing on the ground. Compared with it, the mansions of the princes and nobles in the city are as shabby as thatched houses.

There are four large courtyards around the pagoda, accommodating a total of 500 Buddhists, most of whom are Buddhists who are still in training. After a certain amount of learning, these Buddhists will become warrior monks and temple monks and be sent to different positions. Those who do well or have advanced cultivation can become masters and take up higher positions. For example, the Buddhist supervisors in the army are the elite among the masters.

Going further, there are elders. There are currently eleven elders in the sect. Only by becoming an elder can you be qualified to learn the magical powers of Buddhism and accept the core inheritance.

Finally, there is the supreme reincarnated monk. It is said that the monk is the reincarnation of the Buddha, with great magical powers of immortality and earth-shaking, and is the absolute and only ruler of this paradise.

"If you want to use the power of the dragon, you must contact the holy monk. Only the holy monk knows some unknown secrets." Liang Zhan said.

Chu Xiu nodded and continued to move forward. The three of them quickly passed through the noble area and came to the gate of the compound where the Buddhist sect was located.

Unlike the past, at this time, dozens of monks holding various weapons gathered at the gate of the compound. Some of them held guns, some held heavy crossbows, and some held large shields, staring at Chu Xiu and the other two with a fierce look, as if they had known they were coming.

"It seems that the third elder reported the news very quickly." Chu Xiu thought to himself, and did not make any move. Only Liang Zhan stepped forward and saluted, saying: "Masters, I am Liang Zhan, and I have important military information to report to the holy monk."

The monks looked at each other, and the leading mage stepped forward and said: "Please follow me."

The monks made way for a path, and after Chu Xiu and the other two caught up, they surrounded them again.

Chu Xiu didn't mind. These monks were indeed rare martial arts masters. The weakest of them could fight at the level of a soldier. With modern weapons, they were indeed a considerable force in this world. But in Chu Xiu's eyes, they were no different from cannon fodder.

Even if they stood there and let them fight, it would be difficult to penetrate his [Collection] general-level armor.

However, as he got closer to the pagoda, Chu Xiu's expression gradually became solemn, because he saw a statue with hair and beard, holding a long stick, and a face full of anger. The statue was carved vividly, as if it would come alive at any time. Chu Xiu felt a strong energy fluctuation from it.

And around the pagoda, there were four 20-meter-high Vajra sculptures. They seemed to be connected to the pagoda by some special means, and the aura on their bodies was even more amazing.

"The Eighteen Arhats and the Four Vajra are the main supporting forces of Buddhism. Each Arhat is comparable to the top martial arts masters. In addition, their bodies are indestructible, so even a team of 100 elite soldiers equipped with Vajra hand cannons cannot destroy them."

"Vajra is even more powerful. The only time I saw him take action was when the scale of the hungry ghost tide exceeded that of the past. The holy monk specially sent two Vajra to assist. The scene was really shocking. A casual palm of Vajra was like a hundred cannons exploding at the same time, which was absolutely beyond human power."

"In addition, there are many Buddhist instruments in Buddhism. The most typical one is the pagoda in the center. Within the coverage of the pagoda, the power of all Buddhist monks and protectors will be greatly enhanced." Liang Zhan explained in a low voice.

And Chu Xiu nodded secretly.

These Arhats are comparable to awakened generals, and Vajra's power has reached at least the king level. Under the blessing of the pagoda, I am afraid that he will have to work hard in his original form.

The fact that Buddhism has been able to maintain its high-pressure rule for 700 years is indeed due to its overwhelming power.

Fortunately, the other party seemed to have no intention of subduing Chu Xiu and the others. The monks just led them to a luxuriously decorated lobby and then left.

"Please three of you wait here for a moment, the elders will be here soon." After leaving these words, the leading mage also withdrew.

Almost at the same time as he left, the lights in the lobby suddenly dimmed, but they did not disappear completely, leaving a little hazy light.

Under the dim light, more than a dozen dancers filed in. They were veiled and only wore thin silk lingerie, covering their key parts. A thin gilt gauze skirt was draped on their shoulders and back, covering them. Her graceful figure was fully revealed.

These dancers strolled to the center of the lobby and danced sexy and seductively. Some of the more daring ones stepped forward and leaned on the wooden table in front of the three of them, deliberately exposing their plump white thighs and placing their crystal-clear little feet on the table. , swaying slightly in front of the three people, her eyes flowing under the veil, her charming eyes as silk, as if to draw away people's souls.

The Buddhist supervisor's face was slightly red, but Liang Zhan was calm and composed, and there was even a trace of compassion in his eyes. He turned to Chu Xiu and said: "These dancers all come from the families of common people and nobles, and some of them are selected from childhood and come here voluntarily. Some were spotted by Buddhists and were forcibly taken back. They stayed in the Buddhist monastery all day long and were only allowed to go out once a month. They also had to cover their faces. The meaning of their existence was to serve the Buddhist monks. "

Chu Xiu nodded and said, "Don't worry, no one will force them again after they leave this world."

Liang Zhan breathed a sigh of relief, said nothing more, and silently admired his dance. As for Chu Xiu, he was even more unfazed. He was not unfavorable to women, but he would not let women disturb his mind. In his heart, there was only the infinite pursuit of power. , other things are just flowers and plants on the roadside. It's okay to try to change your mood occasionally, but it will never affect the business.

Seeing that the two of them were unmoved, the dancer who seduced them had an inexplicable look in her eyes, flicked her gauze skirt to cover her thighs, and retreated to the center of the hall.

The three of them waited for another quarter of an hour when a bell suddenly rang outside the hall. As if they had received some kind of instruction, the dancers exited in an orderly manner. Immediately, the lights in the lobby turned on again, the door was pushed open, and several A figure wearing a bright red cassock strode in.

The leader was a fat monk with a short height and a kind face. He held a string of rosary beads and saluted Chu Xiu:

"Amitabha, I am relieved and temporarily take up the position of the great elder of the Buddhist sect to take charge of the affairs of the sect. I have met you."

"I wonder why you came here this time?"
