Along the way, Long Zhanye described the giant bird he predicted to Ye Guyi in detail.
As well as the barren, barren mountain range, he described every detail in the picture very clearly and carefully.
He wanted to ask Ye Guyi if he knew the origin of the giant bird and if he had heard of the legend of the barren mountain.
But Ye Guyi shook his head, a trace of confusion and apology flashed in his beautiful eyes.
Her voice was soft and helpless. "I have never seen or heard of the mountain range you mentioned, and I have never heard of such a big bird."
"I have lived in the Sun Moon Empire for so many years, traveled to many places, and seen many Soul Beast, but I have never seen such a strange existence."
"Maybe... that's not Soul Beast from the Sun Moon Empire? Did it migrate from other places?"
Long Zhanye was silent for a moment, thinking secretly in his heart. Ye Guyi If he doesn't know, then he can only find other ways.
Having said that, Long Zhanye thought about going to some senior seniors to ask.
Those old monsters who have lived on the mainland for hundreds of years may know the origin of this giant bird.
For example, Jing Hongchen, for example, their teacher Kong Deming, they may know it or have seen it.
So, Long Zhanye took Ye Guyi and went straight to Kong Deming's laboratory.
As soon as he stepped into Kong Deming's laboratory, Long Zhanye felt a sharp gaze coming from the depths of the laboratory.
Kong Deming stood in front of the experimental bench, holding a delicate Engraving Knife in his hand, surrounded by semi-finished parts and drawings.
His hair is whiter than three years ago, and the wrinkles on his face are deeper, but his eyes are still as sharp as an eagle and as bright as stars.
He said sternly, with a kind of reproach in his voice like a father scolding his son:
"You brat, it would be better if you walked away for three years and left without saying goodbye."
"I thought you died outside and there was no news. You still knew you were coming back?!"
He put down Engraving Knife in his hand, turned around, and stared straight at Long Zhanye with his old eyes:
"Do you know what happened to the Mingde Hall? How many big things happened to the Sun Moon Empire?"
Long Zhanye quickly put on a respectful face and said:
"I'm sorry, teacher, I left you without saying goodbye, which made you worried."
"In the past three years, I couldn't help but be trapped in a place where I couldn't escape. It wasn't until recently that I was able to escape..."
But when Long Zhanye was about to explain the reason, Kong Deming quickly interrupted him with a wave of his hand.
The stern expression on his face softened slightly, replaced by a sense of relief.
"Just come back..."
"Let me see if there are any changes in you."
As soon as Kong Deming finished speaking, his old eyes glanced at Long Zhanye casually.
Then, his eyes widened, his pupils suddenly contracted, and his mouth opened slightly.
He was stunned, as if struck by a bolt of lightning, his whole body froze in place, motionless.
"What?"
"You brat, what have you been through in the past three years?"
"Three years ago, you were obviously just a Soul Emperor, but now, how come your cultivation level has increased to Level 90?!"
There was an incredible, dreamlike tremor in his voice.
He stretched out his hands, grabbed Long Zhanye's shoulders, and shook him wildly:
"How on earth did you do that?"
"Tell me quickly! Did you encounter some unique opportunity?"
"Is there any special training method?"
"Say it quickly, say it quickly--!"
Long Zhanye was shaken so dizzy that he felt helpless in his heart.
But it is naturally impossible for him to tell everything about Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Even if Kong Deming is his teacher.
He just said, "I fell into the predicament of West Mountain and was charged for three years--"
"That valley was isolated from the rest of the world. I was trapped there for three whole years, unable to escape, let alone contact the outside world."
"It wasn't until recently that I found a way out."
Kong Deming Hearing this, a flash of enlightenment flashed in his old eyes.
He stopped shaking Long Zhanye and released his hands.
Taking a step back, the shock on his face gradually faded away, replaced by an expression of relief.
"So you entered that valley--then there's no need to say more."
"I have also heard of that place. Most of the people who have been there will not be able to get out. If they can get out, they already belong to Luck."
"As for you, if you have improved your strength, that is the icing on the cake."
He paused. "That valley is one of the most mysterious places in the Sun Moon Continent."
"Even I don't know what's inside. It's amazing if you can come out alive Luck."
"Not bad, not bad."
Long Zhanye nodded and said nothing more.
Kong Deming said again, "Come, come to the experimental bench!"
"Let me see if you have slacked off in the past three years? Soul Power has improved. Has Soul Tool's level kept up?"
"Don't tell me that you were only focusing on cultivation and wasted Soul Tool."
Long Zhanye heard about it and followed Kong Deming to the experimental platform.
It was a huge table made of a single piece of heavy silver.
It is three meters long and two meters wide. Its surface is as smooth as a mirror. There are some Humanoid Robot and some semi-finished products Soul Tool placed on it.
There are also several experimental objects with strange shapes and unknown uses that Long Zhanye has never seen before.
Long Zhanye then showed his Dark Green Dragon Engraving Knife.
He sat down in front of the experimental table, took a deep breath, held Engraving Knife firmly in his right hand, and started his operation.
His movements are smooth and precise, like flowing clouds and flowing water, like a butterfly passing through flowers.
He carved Core Array on a Adamantite board, with Divine Power highly concentrated and Soul Power stable output.
Two whole hours passed.
Long Zhanye put Engraving Knife down, took a deep breath, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
In front of him, there was a silver-white, thigh-thick Fixed Soul Guidance Cannonball--
Level 8 Fixed Soul Cannon.
He created an eighth-level Fixed Soul Cannon.
And this scene was naturally seen by Kong Deming.
He stood behind Long Zhanye, with his hands behind his back, staring at the eighth-level Fixed Soul Guidance Cannonball, without any expression on his face.
He immediately said, "In three years, from Level 7 Soul Engineer to Level 8 Soul Engineer."
"That's right. But for you, it's too slow. It's still too slow. Your talent doesn't stop there."
Long Zhanye obviously does not understand what Kong Deming said.
During the three years that I was trapped in Undead Semi-Plane, I never slacked off.
In addition to practicing, he has been trying to make Soul Tool, recalling every skill Kong Deming taught him.
He reached Level 8 Soul Engineer in three years, and he thought he should be praised.
But Kong Deming's expression, his tone, and his attitude all told him--
Not enough, far from enough.
At this time, Kong Deming said, with a heavy tone in his voice:
"The former Mingde Hall has been destroyed - turned into ruins, turned into ashes, and turned into history in that big explosion."
"The reconstructed Mingde Hall is no longer as good as the original one."
"Brain loss, technical faults, drawings lost, equipment damaged... everything has to start from scratch."
He paused, and a trace of deep worry and helplessness flashed through his old eyes:
"Sun Moon Empire, there hasn't been a new Level 9 Soul Engineer in ten years."
"Ten years! Do you know what this means? It means the stagnation of Soul Tool Technology. It means that we are being forgotten by technology on this road."
He turned around and looked directly at Long Zhanye, with a solemn look in his eyes as if he was entrusting an important task:
"If you little guys don't work hard to change the status quo, I'm afraid Sun Moon Empire's Soul Tool Technology will also decline--"
"This is the responsibility of our generation and the mission of your generation."
Long Zhanye saw Kong Deming's serious look and heard his heavy and worried tone.
He immediately said, "Teacher, I will study hard in the next time until I reach Level 9 Soul Engineer!"
"Won't live up to your expectations--!!"
He paused, with a hint of temptation in his voice:
"But before that, I have something to ask you."
Kong Deming's voice was calm and indifferent:
"What?"
Long Zhanye told Kong Deming completely about the scene he saw in Sky-Propping Eye.
Kong Deming fell into deep thought after hearing this. His brows were furrowed and his eyes were empty and far-reaching.
After a long time, he spoke slowly.
There was a distant and heavy tone in the voice:
"Giant bird, barren mountain--"
"I've heard rumors about it."
Long Zhanye asked in surprise, "Teacher, what is it?"
Kong Deming said, "That giant bird has existed on this continent for an unknown number of years..."
"Some say it has lived for a hundred thousand years, some say it has lived for a million years, and some say it has existed since the beginning of the world."
"Some people call it 'Yin Yang Chaos Bird' because its feathers are black and white, its breath Yin-Yang coexists, and its power Chaos is unknown."
"But more people regard it as a symbol of disaster and call it 'Bird of Chaos'!"
"Because wherever it goes, life is extinct, All Things Wither."
He paused, a trace of fear and awe flashed in his old eyes:
"Because every time it reaches All Things Revive, it will rain gray...""
"The rain is not water, but the energy condensed from the Chaos air."
"When the gray rain falls around, all life disappears..."
"The vegetation is dead, the soil is desertified, and the water sources are drying up. Even Soul Beast will be seriously affected by the gray rain--"
"Those with low cultivation will die on the spot; those with high cultivation will also be eroded and their strength will be greatly reduced."
"So, the surrounding area, including the mountain, is completely barren, with no grass growing, no birds and animals, and no breath of life."
"That mountain is called 'Dead Mountain' by the locals and a 'forbidden zone' by Spirit Master. It is kept at a distance by everyone and they dare not approach it."
Long Zhanye's heart suddenly sank.
Kong Deming continued, "Even my student Jing Hongchen was impressed by Yin Yang Chaos Bird's ability."
"He once wanted to hunt that giant bird and obtain Soul Ring Spirit Bone for his descendants."
"He led an elite Soul Engineer team to the barren mountain, vowing to hunt down the Yin Yang Chaos Bird."
"But I failed many times and came back frustrated - not once, but three times."
"Three expeditions, three failed, but many eighth-level, Level 7 Soul Engineer elites died. The losses were heavy and the vitality was severely damaged."
Kong Deming shook his head, with a hint of regret and emotion:
"From then on, Jing Hongchen never dared to take advantage of it again. That giant bird has become an eternal shadow in his heart."
