Two days later, three figures stood in a lifeless swamp. This swamp was very vast and filled with gloomy air everywhere.
The swamp is covered with black mud. It is foggy and swampy all year round. The trees growing here have no bark, exposing their smooth tree trunks.
On some branches, there are only a few scattered leaves hanging, as if they will fall at any time and reach the end of their lives.
In the swamp, Li Yan they saw some erratic figures, they were floating around aimlessly. At the same time, in the black swamp, they actually saw a lot of big flags or incomplete weapons.
Those big flags have long been covered with mud, and the original color cannot be seen at all. Only some embroidered patterns can be vaguely seen. They are inserted diagonally or straight into the swamp, looking so lonely.
And more broken flags, like those broken weapons, are lying in the swamp, with more or less parts exposed in the floating and sinking, and even some are covered with them, like black earthworm-like things...
This is the other end of the Yin Tomb, and it is filled with endless corpse gas. Even a whiff of it will make people dizzy and nauseated.
Li Yan sensed it, and even if Nascent Soul Cultivator came over, as long as he was not a ghost cultivator, he would not be able to stay here for too long.
"It seems that no clues can be found here, and the most likely place has been destroyed by that little Lineage.
We have checked tens of thousands of corpses in the past two days. There are indeed monks among them, including Demon Beast, and some have a trace of evil energy lingering on their bodies, but there is no Soul Cultivator.
Great Ancestor They fell into a trap in the end and broke out and retreated, so Great Ancestor they should have been fighting and retreating at the same time.
Maybe the first battle was not here, but when he finally retreated here, there were no other disciples around Great Ancestor, and he finally fell near that tomb.
And this is the ancient battlefield of the past. There was more than one fight at that time. The lingering souls here are basically Li Hun or resentful souls.
They will even devour each other. If they devour too much, their souls will naturally mutate.
The overwhelming murderous intent and resentment in the body will cover up the differences in the original soul, which even we cannot distinguish..."
Elder Hao frowned and said in thought. He actually hated that little Lineage in his heart, but Li Yan saw his murderous intention and said that he had some connection with this Lineage.
Elder Hao had no choice but to give up in the end, but think about it, even if this little Lineage were not here, there would be other ghost cultivators Lineage or sects appearing.
After all, when they discovered this place, they were the first to establish the foundation, but they were the latecomers...
Elder Hao has been speculating on one point, why there is only the Storage Pouch of Great Ancestor, but no trace of other things can be found anymore.
It stands to reason that with Great Ancestor's cultivation at that time, he must already have a storage ring. After Elder Hao thought about this carefully, he gave an explanation.
At that time, when Great Ancestor was fighting and retreating here, he may have felt that he was about to fall, so he put some things into Storage Pouch.
Storage Pouch This kind of low-level storage Dharma Treasure is even in the hands of the Immortal Spirit Realm many middle-level monks and even high-level monks will have some.
This kind of thing usually has no effect on them at all, but it is of great use under certain conditions and can be used to hide one's identity. For example, Elder Hao also has several of them.
The only reason Great Ancestor did this was to consider whether it was to preserve his soul or other important things.
Once placed in the storage ring, if the things are obtained by others after his death, the better things will naturally fall into the hands of powerful monks.
Then the possibility of keeping the secret becomes smaller. If his remaining soul falls into the hands of a powerful monk, he may even be enslaved by the other party.
If you use Storage Pouch, you will avoid these things to the greatest extent. Only low-level monks will put important things in it.
The so-called important treasures of low-level monks are simply a pile of scrap metal in the eyes of mid-level monks and above.
So if Great Ancestor does this, the jade box that retains his remaining soul will be protected to the greatest extent.
Even if something unexpected happens, his remnant soul can kill low-level monks who are up to no good.
However, if his remnant soul wants to return to "Soul Prison Clan", it will be many times more difficult with a low-level monk's cultivation level.
But Great Ancestor In that kind of crisis, this was the best decision in a hurry. It was better than letting the remaining soul of oneself directly fall into danger.
But where did his soul go in the end? Why Storage Pouch is the only one left, this makes Elder Hao unable to figure it out.
Regarding Elder Hao's analysis, both Li Yan and Master Lan nodded.
"In fact, it is not an accident that we got such a result. In order to search for Great Ancestor, the second ancestor and the third ancestor later came to the Lost Continent to search.
No relevant clues were found at that time. It can only be said that we came across Li Yan after a long period of time. It can only be said to be a chance.
In this case, I think we should rush to the Qingqing Continent and Soul Prison Clan as soon as possible to look for other clues.
After arriving there, I guess the situation will be better if we look for the clues left by the Second Ancestor and the others. At least there is still the long underground alley and formation there! "
Master Lan's eyes flashed with purple light and he spoke his thoughts.
"Senior, Master Lan, you must be prepared for any eventuality. I know that the only place that has not been found is the underground long alley formation.
As for other places in the ruins, they have been searched many times. Even now that there are too few monks in the past, it can be known that no one is interested in exploring them.
This shows that the clues there are also seriously damaged, but what I am talking about is just in case. Maybe after senior and Master Lan go there, they can find other hiding places, but it is not certain! "
"What you said makes sense. We need to try our best to find out. Otherwise, I won't be able to explain it to the Third Ancestor!"
Elder Hao nodded, but then he continued.
"Since we are leaving here, we must thoroughly investigate the things that need to be investigated, and we must not miss anything!"
Having said this, he looked at Li Yan.
Li Yan After hearing this, he immediately responded without any hesitation this time.
"This is natural. Thank you for your mercy, senior!"
Of course Li Yan knows what Elder Hao means. There are still areas that have not been investigated and further investigation is needed.
That is Fengjia Fort, so they will thoroughly search Fengjia Fort before leaving.
The purpose of their search was two places, the storage space of each monk, and the place where Fengjiabao treasures were stored.
Li Yan knew that it was because of Elder Hao's sake that he had not done anything to them. Naturally, he thought that if he could find clues in the Yin Tomb, he would not touch the Feng family again.
But now that there are no clues at all, of course we have to investigate.
And since the Feng family destroyed the place where clues to Great Ancestor were found, it is impossible to say that Elder Hao did not have murderous intentions.
This kind of person is completely cold-blooded to outsiders, including Master Lan, who only has things of Soul Cultivator's heart in his heart.
Just by looking at the methods they use to rule "Dizhen Domain", you can know their character. Anyone who resists at all will have their entire sect bloodbathed.
The Feng family destroyed the clues left by Great Ancestor, and Elder Hao would think of murder to vent his anger if something went wrong.
However, because Li Yan's words came first, they gave up after thinking about it and realizing that the other party was not the key.
This kind of thing is very common among immortal cultivators, especially sects like Soul Cultivator and Ghost Cultivator. They are often hostile and even hunted down by outsiders.
This makes the monks of this kind of sect extremely repulsive to the outside world. Even if they kill irrelevant people, they will not feel any burden on their hearts. Instead, they will feel that it is perfectly justified.
But Li Yan is not the kind of person who kills indiscriminately. Even if this is not the Feng family, if it is just a normal sect, he will discourage unreasonable killings.
However, Elder Hao's last proposal was also strongly advocated by Li Yan, not to mention that he planned to do it, since he came here just to find clues.
Of course, he was really afraid that some blind person would pick up the pieces of the broken wine vat, even though it was of no use to the other party.
But maybe it was just thrown into Storage Pouch. Wouldn't it be like being dark under a lamp and just missed it!
Qingqing Continent Somewhere in the west, there are grand canyons all over the land, ravines and steep mountains.
Most of the mountains are dominated by low, black and gray vegetation. When viewed from the air, they look like giant black monsters standing or crouching. They rise and fall one after another, towering between the sky and the earth.
In a canyon, there is a path winding through it. On both sides of the path, there are clusters of bushes, like dark green hedgehogs, lying there quietly, spreading towards the mountains on both sides.
At the end of this path, there is a high mountain. One end of the path is facing the entrance of a dark cave, like a monster's huge mouth waiting for prey to enter its belly.
The dark entrance of the cave was constantly blowing out the cold air, and the cave was even more pitch black, making it impossible to see even one's fingers.
The rocks in the cave are rugged, and in some narrow places, only one person can pass through. The dark cave extends downwards.
About ten miles later, a bright yellow light suddenly appeared there, and the surrounding area was brightly illuminated. It was a bright yellow light mask ten feet in size.
On the surface of the mask, there is yellow spiritual energy flowing rapidly and erratically, like fish swimming back and forth. It feels like an exit at the other end suddenly appeared.
And this place is the entrance to the once ancient "Soul Prison Clan", which is now under the jurisdiction of several major forces.
Any monk who wants to enter and explore must either have an entry token, or each person needs to pay 10,000 yuan of low-level spiritual stones before they can enter.
On this day, three invisible breaths came here silently.
Then, they only stayed in front of the yellow light shield for a short time, and then, without the knowledge of a group of monks guarding the entrance, they quietly passed through the yellow light shield and entered the rear passage.
On a piece of land, Elder Hao was looking forward with his hands behind his back. Li Yan and Master Lan were standing behind him.
Although the light here is still not too bright, it is no longer dark. The dim light in front has illuminated the vast land, making the scene in front of the three people suddenly clear.
The sky is dark, as if there is a huge black curtain covering the entire sky, giving people a feeling of being suppressed from the heart to the depths of the soul and unable to breathe.
At this moment, in front of the three people is an endless stretch of desolate desert. The dim light that appears here comes from countless grains of sand on the ground.
