Han Yi stood up suddenly, his face changed several times, and an idea jumped out of his mind.
This idea, at first glance, seemed completely unrealistic, but how much he hoped that this idea could be true.
because.
The half-human, half-corpse outsider monk in Endless Corpse Domain has several characteristics that match the Yuan Shun who has been missing in the Jade Balance Realm.
coincide?
Or is it really Yuan Shun?
After the original Mystic Pill Sect transformed into Corpse Domain, Yuan Shun appeared as Blood Demon Battlefield, killed Jiang Ji uge, and wounded Liu Su True Monarch with one blow, then disappeared and was never heard from again.
Regardless of the various news about Qin Wuxian, Si Hongxue, or Jade Balance Realm, there is no trace of Yuan Shun. This legendary sect leader seems to have disappeared from the world.
Talk about it.
From the disappearance of Yuan Shun, to the invasion of the Shaking Light Realm demon cultivators, to Han Yi being brought back to the Shaking Light Realm by Devour Heaven demon god by chance, this period of time lasted about twenty years.
In the past twenty years, Han Yi has never heard of Yuan Shun again. The only time "Yuan Shun" appeared was when he pretended to be "Yuan Shun" in Shu Capital in order to find the cause of Qin Wuxian's death.
In addition to the ten years that Han Yi spent waiting for the passage between the two worlds to open in the Shaking Light Realm, it has been thirty years since Yuan Shun disappeared.
But now, Tianquan Realm, far away from the Jade Balance Realm, unexpectedly found traces of suspected Yuan Shun. This message almost made Han Yi unable to react.
He looked down through the hollow patio.
now.
The middle-aged man below has finished speaking about seven important messages within a month. The drinkers and monks around him all have different expressions, some are discussing passionately, and some are pondering undecidedly. The middle-aged man is about to walk off the stage, but at this moment, he pauses and walks to the top of the building.
After a while, the middle-aged man walked up to Han Yi and saluted Han Yi. This was a sign of respect to the powerful monk. It was this monk Golden Core who just sent a message from his spiritual consciousness to ask him to come up.
"Senior called me here, do you have any instructions?"
Han Yi has the aura of a peak Golden Core monk, and has not deliberately restrained himself. This middle-aged man is just a foundation-building monk. Even Three Lives Tavern's "storyteller" knows how to respect the strong.
Han Yi thought for a while and asked.
"One of the seven messages you just mentioned is about the arrival of the Tianquan Realm in the far north, Endless Corpse Domain."
"Let me ask you, is there any image or other information about the outsider monk who appeared in Corpse Domain?"
The middle-aged man who established the foundation breathed a sigh of relief. Han Yi did not ask for other information, but asked about the seven things he said. He knew these seven things in more detail. Apart from that, other major events were beyond his knowledge.
Because these seven pieces of news were originally selected by the Violet Firmament Sect. They all sound like big things, but they do not involve some secrets and can be widely publicized.
The middle-aged monk respectfully replied, "Senior, there is no image of the foreign monk who appeared, but if he was able to defeat Heavenly Phoenix Dao Lord, that foreign monk must be a powerful god."
"Do you have a specific address where Corpse Domain is?" Han Yi asked again.
The middle-aged monk shook his head. "No."
"However, Corpse Domain has not been dispersed, and the area should be quite large. As long as it reaches the boundary of the Qianyuan Sect, it should not be difficult to inquire."
Han Yi nodded, stopped asking, gave Spirit Stone a large sum of money, and left straight away. Behind him, the middle-aged Zhuji thanked him repeatedly. In a few words, he could get a reward. Senior Golden Core was so generous, which made him happy.
other side.
After leaving Three Lives Tavern, Han Yi did not return to the house. Instead, it rose into the sky and released a Immortal Boat. This Immortal Boat was completely painted Black was originally obtained from Black God Seven Venerables leader Qiu Yao Qiankun Ring. This Immortal Boat is named Black Sovereign Immortal Boat.
Black Sovereign Immortal Boat, a top-grade magic weapon, is one of the three top-grade Immortal Boats on Han Yi, and it is the fastest one.
Driving Black Sovereign Immortal Boat, Han Yi fled towards the north.
Talk about it.
Tianquan Realm The front line between the two ethnic groups, from a macro map view, is winding, but the first and last ends of this front line are in the extreme north and the extreme south respectively, dividing Tianquan Realm into the territory of the two ethnic groups.
The seven major forces of the human race are more or less close to the front lines of the two races. From the Violet Firmament Sect to the north, they are God-Refining Hall, Void-Controlling Sect, and Qianyuan Sect. To the south, they are Origin-Returning Sect, Heaven-Sea Alliance, and Constellation Mountain.
Han Yi starts from Violet Empyrean Immortal City and heads straight north. This road passes through four major forces, which is basically equivalent to Han Yi's original journey from the Mystic Pill Sect, vertically passing through Great Qin, and arriving at Sword Cliff in the far north of the continent.
Along the way, with the current peak Golden Core state of Han Yi and the driving of the ultimate magic weapon Immortal Boat, it took less than half a month to reach Qianyuan Sect in the far north.
In the past half month, Han Yi spent most of the time away from the front lines of the two tribes. Only in the Void-Controlling Sect area, there was a short section along the front lines of the two tribes. However, he did not encounter any medium-sized or larger battles between the two tribes. He only encountered a few pursuits between the Demon Saint and the True Lord Monk. Han Yi relied on Immortal Boat to stay away from them and did not participate in them.
This journey can be said to be smooth and hassle-free.
After arriving at the Qianyuan Sect realm, Han Yi did not go to Qianyuan Immortal City where the Qianyuan Sect was located. Instead, he found a nearby fairy city and entered it. After just an hour, he flew out again. Within this hour, he had already found out where Corpse Domain was.
In fact, it was not difficult for him to inquire this time, because the existence of Corpse Domain had been spread throughout the area of the Qianyuan Sect.
There are monks like Han Yi who inquire about the location of Corpse Domain everywhere.
The monk in Corpse Domain turned out to be a monk from outside the world. It is very possible that Corpse Domain itself came from outside the world. There might be an opportunity. Of course, the risks are also obvious, but for many monks, an opportunity that is most likely to be a god-level one is at least worth trying to get in touch with.
Next, across the small half of the Qianyuan Sect, Han Yi enters the extreme north of the Tianquan Realm.
What you can see is an extremely cold world, with ice that has not melted for countless thousands of years, exuding a deep cold that makes even Han Yi feel a little palpitated. This coldness reaches straight to the soul.
Han Yi did not stay, but crossed across and fled directly towards the direction of Corpse Domain that he had learned about.
During this period, he also overtook dozens of teams of monks, some alone and some in partnership, but they were all going in the same direction. It seemed that Corpse Domain really aroused the interest of many monks.
On the third day after entering the extremely cold world, Han Yi and Immortal Boat gradually slowed down and finally stopped.
A few miles in front of him, a fog spread along both sides and in the sky, with no edges visible. It was like a wall, cutting the extremely cold world into two worlds. Outside the fog, the extreme cold remained the same, but within the fog, the corpse aura was so deep that it was so rich that you couldn't even see your fingers.
Corpse Domain.
This is the rumored Endless Corpse Domain.
However, according to what I heard in Violet Empyrean Immortal City, the battle between the outsider monks in Endless Corpse Domain and Heavenly Phoenix Dao Lord in the Qianyuan Sect has already ended. For nearly a month, in this month, Qianyuan Sect's great power of transformation was even unable to defeat Corpse Domain, which made Han Yi feel a little more dignified.
If the outsider monk in Corpse Domain is different from his guess and is not Yuan Shun, but someone else, then it will definitely be quite dangerous for him to step into Corpse Domain rashly.
And if this outsider monk is really Yuan Shun, then I have even more questions. Why did he create this Corpse Domain? How did he go from the Jade Balance Realm to the Tianquan Realm? Why not return to the Jade Balance Realm? Why was it that he was able to defeat the mighty God Transformer in just thirty years? Has he reached the level of God Transformation at his current level?
With complicated thoughts, Han Yi gathered all his thoughts, took a deep breath, and started looking for possible clues along the edge of Corpse Domain, about ten kilometers away.
but.
After three full days, there was no trace of the monks from outside the world, except for the monks who were just like him at the edge of the Corpse Realm, eager to step into the Corpse Realm.
But from the mouths of these monks, Han Yi actually heard what happened in this area within a month after Heavenly Phoenix Dao Lord recovered from his injuries.
A month ago, Corpse Domain appeared in the world, and Qianyuan Sect Heavenly Phoenix Dao Lord stepped into it and met a monk from outside the world. The monk was half human, half corpse, half infant and half fairy. Moreover, he was still unconscious, occasionally normal, and suddenly crazy.
Heavenly Phoenix Dao Lord knew that the monk was an outsider because he received the information while he was awake and able to communicate.
Then, Heavenly Phoenix Dao Lord was about to ask more, but he saw that the outsider monk suddenly went berserk, and the whole Corpse Domain instantly boiled. The outsider monk, who was originally only in the Nascent Soul realm, suddenly had a surge in combat power, severely injuring Heavenly Phoenix Dao Lord with three strikes, forcing him to flee.
On the fifth day after that, Heavenly Phoenix Dao Lord left and returned. This time, it was not only him who came to Corpse Domain, but also Qianyuan Sect, the sect master, and another Supreme Elder, who gathered the three Divine Transformation powerful ones, and then entered Corpse Domain.
After three days, the three people exited Corpse Domain without being injured. However, the Qianyuan Sect leader who exited made a notice to the sect, saying that there was no chance in Corpse Domain, but it was extremely dangerous. However, as long as they did not break into it, there would be no problem, and the Corpse Domain would not expand and would dissipate after a period of time, in order to calm the monks of the sect.
This matter is settled at the Qianyuan Sect level.
but.
In Rogue Cultivator, among the group of robbery cultivators and human monks seeking opportunities, the rumors are getting more and more mysterious.
Some people say that the outsider monk in Corpse Domain is a half-immortal, and he came here to find a Tianquan Realm monk to leave a legacy. This Corpse Domain is a test in itself, attracting countless monks to flock here.
Some people say that Corpse Domain appears in this world because there is an important treasure under the Tianquan Realm in the far north. The treasure is difficult to find. Even monks from outside the world are encircling the land to hunt for the treasure. If others can find it, it will skyrocket. This rumor also made all the monks take notice.
Many reasons to spread this world.
Moreover, in addition to the human monks, during this period, there were also many demon cultivators who lurked across the two fronts, appeared near Corpse Domain, peeked and investigated, and then plunged into Corpse Domain without a trace.
but.
In the past month, no one has ever revealed the truth about this Corpse Domain. Even the three Qianyuan Sect gods who entered it together have not yet found out.
now.
Han Yi stood in the void several miles away from Corpse Domain, his eyes flickering and thoughts bursting out. Yesterday, he had already gone close to inspect the corpse aura that was filled with thick fog.
In terms of shape, this corpse energy is similar to the fog on Mystic Pill Peak. However, the fog on Mystic Pill Peak is not corpse energy, but the same as thick fog. In essence, the corpse energy of Corpse Domain is similar to the corpse energy that enveloped the old site after the destruction of the Mystic Pill Sect, but in terms of quality and quantity, it far exceeds the original corpse energy.
Corpse Qi, in essence, is also a type of spiritual energy. However, spiritual energy governs "life", while corpse air governs "death".
now.
Han Yi, who was standing several miles away from Corpse Domain, thought for a long time before making up his mind. In a flash, he crossed several miles in a few breaths and plunged into Corpse Domain.
Of course, before entering Corpse Domain, he had already closed the external breathing passages throughout his body and switched to internal breathing.
After stepping into Corpse Domain, he suddenly discovered that his spiritual consciousness, which had been able to explore dozens of kilometers, was actually compressed to one kilometer, and the naked eye could only see clearly within a hundred meters, and beyond a hundred meters, it was blurry.
He immediately became extremely alert and flew forward at a slow speed.
After a moment, he stopped. In front of him, three lifeless corpses fell to the ground. The strong corpse aura gathered on the corpses, as if they were pregnant with something strange.
The strange thing is that these three corpses did not have any wounds, but their faces were horrified, as if they had witnessed something extremely terrifying at the moment of death.
Han Yi was awe-inspiring, but did not avoid it. Instead, with a slight wave of his hand, he took the Qiankun Ring from the three corpses and put it in his bag. Then, one of the three long swords behind him, Green Duckweed Sword, swept across and cut the three corpses in half.
He wanted to see what the cause of death of this corpse was, so that when he encountered it, he would not be caught off guard and be mentally prepared in advance.
Brush it.
The three dead bodies, which had been cut off at the waist, suddenly opened their eyes, and in their dead eyes, a horrifying black light burst out. The black light flashed, and the corpses with only the upper body stood upright in an instant, staring at Han Yi.
Han Yi's face turned cold and he snorted softly. Green Duckweed Sword turned back and flashed through a curve, blasting three heads. The half-length corpse that stood up instantly lost control and fell down, no longer alive.
"What exactly is it?"
"Kind of like a low-level corpse puppet."
Han Yi took back Green Duckweed Sword, and carried Green Duckweed Sword, Demon-Slaying Sword, and Demon-Suppressing Sword side by side behind him. He was confused, but there were not many clues, and he couldn't figure out the reason.
He continued to fly forward.
As he went deeper and deeper into Corpse Domain, he encountered more and more corpses, some were broken, some were intact, and some were exuding strong corpse aura. Although his eyes were dead, his body seemed to be walking like a normal monk, which was extremely weird.
These corpses are similar to the low-level corpse puppets in Han Yi's memory of the corpse refining sect.
Among these corpse puppets, in addition to human monks, there are also demon cultivators. Moreover, in terms of realm, the lowest is Foundation Establishment, and the highest is Nascent Soul. Moreover, there are many Nascent Soul corpse puppets.
Han Yi conveniently snatched a Nascent Soul monk corpse puppet and a Demon Saint corpse puppet Qiankun Ring. When preparing to ingest the third Nascent Soul monk corpse puppet Qiankun Ring, the Nascent Soul corpse puppet suddenly turned around and erupted into a horrifying corpse posture. The corpse posture was vaguely detectable. Before his death, he was a great monk in the late Nascent Soul stage.
Moreover, the dead corpse puppet of the late Nascent Soul stage was even more like a living person. He yelled "seeking death" and then chased after him madly.
Han Yi was frightened and ran for his life. However, he soon discovered that the Nascent Soul Corpse Puppet behind him only had a strong body. He relied on instinct and brute force to chase him. In less than ten breaths, he lost his target because he could not catch up with Han Yi, and thus returned to his original appearance. Looking at his appearance, it seemed that he did not know that he was dead and was still exploring this Corpse Domain.
Such an appearance revealed a heart-stopping weirdness, making Han Yi even more cautious.
Even the great monks in the late Nascent Soul stage fell into this Corpse Domain's trick, and Han Yi would never dare to let down their guard.
If it weren't for the fact that Yuan Shun was most likely to be here, he would never have set foot here.
Han Yi slowed down and gradually flew towards the center of Corpse Domain. In the end, he took out Demon-Slaying Battle Armor and several fourth-level talismans to resist possible sudden attacks and ensure the speed and strength of the counterattack.
but.
What surprised him was that as he went deeper and deeper, apart from encountering those weird corpse puppets and dozens of groups of monks who had sneaked into Corpse Domain, looking for opportunities, there were no other surprises.
One day later.
Han Yi stopped. When he arrived here, he should be close to the core of Corpse Domain. The coldness around him was terrifying beyond his imagination. Even his physical body, which was cultivated by Ancient God Visualization Art, had to struggle to resist this coldness.
Moreover, this coldness is not only directed at the physical body, but also at the soul. In his sea of consciousness space, at this moment, except for the black beads hanging above, which are not affected, his soul that has transformed into Soul Tower has begun to glow with white frost, and the same is true for the first nine handles of Soul Tower, Soul Sword.
Both the physical body and the spiritual soul felt the terrifying chill at the same time. Han Yi knew that this was his limit, and he could not go any deeper. If he went deeper, his physical body would most likely be damaged, his soul would be frozen, and all his Daoism would disappear.
but.
He was not willing to retreat, but chose to stay here and sit cross-legged to see if he could have a chance to meet the outsider monk.
The coldness invaded, causing his black hair to be stained with white frost. The deep cold air oppressed the robe, and over time, the material must be damaged.
This is the price, he doesn't care.
Seven days later.
Han Yi The frost that had condensed on his body was already a thick layer. At one moment, his motionless body suddenly shook slightly, shaking the frost away. Then, he suddenly stood up and stared straight ahead. Within the scope of his consciousness, there was a looming figure walking in the extremely cold world.
The face of that figure was so familiar.
It was surprisingly the long-lost Mystic Pill Sect master, Yuan Shun, who had not been seen for nearly thirty years.
But the strange thing is that at this moment, Yuan Shun has no magic power in his body, but he has a terrifyingly rich corpse aura. This corpse aura makes Han Yi frightened.
Moreover, with just a quick glance, Han Yi realized that Yuan Shun was not in the right state. He was walking in this extremely cold world like a zombie.
Han Yi didn't think any more, but followed him with a shudder. When the distance was reduced to within a hundred meters, he was able to see Yuan Shun's status clearly with his eyesight.
When he saw it clearly, Han Yi was stunned.
The sect master who was unparalleled, handsome and spirited in the past is now a completely different person.
Her white hair was scattered and messy.
He was wearing a broken robe, stained with blood, and was dull and colorless.
With bare feet, walking aimlessly in the extremely cold world.
The pupils of his eyes are all white, and it is even more appropriate to describe them as pale.
The appearance of his face is the same as it was thirty years ago, and he does not look old.
If it weren't for this face that was exactly the same as thirty years ago, judging from the clothes and eyes, Han Yi would never have recognized it. The monk in front of him was the master of the Mystic Pill Sect.
"Sect Master."
Han Yi choked in his heart and called out softly. The figure walking barefoot in front did not stop and continued to move forward.
