Ascension Through Generations

"Why do I want to stop it?"

Di Jiang looked at Feng Xianxian who looked wary with a half-smile, with an elusive meaning in his eyes.

Feng Xianxian had nothing to say, so he could only change the subject lightly: "Those people are about to open the entrance to the cave. When do you plan to take action?"

Di Jiang turned to look at the altar and said leisurely: "No hurry! Let them go in first. After all, it is the Immortal Tomb Palace, and the dangers inside should not be underestimated."

Feng Xianxian followed his gaze and saw countless stars flowing into the "light spots" in the sky like the Milky Way. The entrance to the cave expanded rapidly, revealing a three-foot "light hole" with bright stars. The light hole After that, a vast and boundless land was faintly revealed, with mountains and mountains on the surface, desolate and gray.

"The transaction between me and you will be completed automatically after I take you into the mausoleum and coffin hall. I hope you will abide by your promise and obtain the treasure for me."

After the words fell, Di Jiang applauded lightly and said with a faint smile: "I always do what I say. However, I hope that fellow Feng Daoist can go there in his true body instead of a small incarnation."

As he spoke, Di Jiang lowered his head and looked at the golden-haired strange ape squatting on the ground.

When Feng Xianxian heard this, his expression suddenly changed and he said quickly: "Di Jiang, you are going too far."

"Oh, really? I don't think so."

As he spoke, an incredible stalwart figure was suddenly reflected in the depths of Di Jiang's eyes. An indescribable and mysterious wave passed through the invisible line of sight and instantly shot into Feng Xianxian's eyes, directly penetrating into the depths of his consciousness and soul.

Feng Xianxian's expression suddenly changed, and in the next moment, his entire body suddenly turned into a gray-white stone statue.

After being petrified, the mysterious waves of the invasion were immediately isolated, and could no longer be connected to the spirit of Feng Xianxian.

When Di Jiang saw this scene, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes, and the majestic figure deep in his eyes slowly disappeared.

At this moment, two completely different voices suddenly came out from the mouth of the Dijiang River, one after the other: "Petrified creatures, very interesting thought. Is the one lying inside it the stone ancestor in my memory?" ? Di Jiang, I’m very curious! Go ahead and satisfy my curiosity!”

"Di Jiang will obey my Lord's decree!"

…

The Frozen Demonic Abyss is vast and deep, ice mist fills the sky and the earth, and the vastness covers most of the void.

A stream of light soared into the sky from the depths of darkness, breaking through the fog and soaring into the sky.

Zhao Sheng's eyes were like lightning, and his will force field always covered the front for dozens of miles, always avoiding the strange creatures that suddenly appeared in the mist.

He didn't know that after he left, Feng Xianxian and Di Jiang came together, and the two secretly reached some kind of deal.

Although Zhao Sheng knew nothing about it, the keen intuition from deep within his soul kept reminding him to leave as soon as possible.

Therefore, without asking almost anything, he followed Feng Xianxian's advice and quickly evacuated the ruins.

Then, did Zhao Sheng guess that Di Jiang and Feng Xianxian had secretly "cooperated"? Maybe I vaguely guessed it, maybe not!

But now, none of this matters. After all, he has voluntarily left that land of right and wrong, and the danger has also left.

One day later, over the vast expanse of ice, a large area of ​​chaotic black was quietly "floating", spanning the sky like a black storm, swallowing up everything in the void.

Below it, a huge abyss with no visible edges was cracked in the boundless ice. There seemed to be wisps of pale mist rising from below the abyss. Countless mist vortices stirred up the howling cold wind from all directions, blocking the endless cliffs on both sides. .

On the edge of a cliff somewhere, Zhao Sheng stood on the top of a tall raised icicle, looking down at the abyss ahead with an indifferent expression.

He has been waiting here for nearly half an hour. At this moment, the familiar fluctuations coming from the Noble Phantasm are getting stronger and stronger, as if it indicates that the visitor will arrive soon.

"coming!"

After a moment, Zhao Sheng's eyes flashed and he suddenly looked at the whirlpool of mist below.

As soon as he finished speaking, a stream of water suddenly tore through the whirlpool of mist, and in the blink of an eye, it crossed thousands of feet of void and flew into the air opposite him.

The water flow condensed into a ball, swirling around countless times, and then walked out of it a slender figure wearing aqua blue armor, golden eyes and snow teeth, and a light body. It was Wuzhi Qi who "escaped with a broken limb".

This person's missing limbs have all grown back, and his once bloated body has become slender and well-proportioned. If it weren't for the precious phantom that was still there, he would be almost unrecognizable.

"Kui Niu!"

"Wuzhiqi!"

The two spoke almost at the same time, and laughed out loud almost at the same time.

"Ha ha."

When the two of them had laughed enough, Zhao Sheng stopped laughing and asked, "Senior brother, do you know where the others are now?"

Wuzhiqi suddenly stopped laughing and said in a very cold tone: "Teng She is dead, and both Di Jiang and Fu Dou have disappeared. Now only you and me are left."

"Then shall we wait here for some time? Maybe..."

Before Zhao Sheng could finish his words, he was interrupted by Wuzhiqi: "No! Dijiang will never die. Hui Dou, Dijiang has to worry about his life and death. What does it have to do with you and me!"

After Zhao Sheng heard this, he immediately understood the meaning behind Wuzhiqi's words, so he stopped asking further questions.

Wuzhi Qi pointed to the sky and said in a cold voice: "The Ice Age is coming soon! I can't stay in the Frozen Demonic Abyss any longer. Otherwise, when the Ice Age comes, you and I will not be spared. Without further ado, you and I will return to Qixufang immediately. ."

"Okay, I'll go back with my senior brother." Zhao Sheng had already intended to return, so naturally he wouldn't object to Wuzhi Qi's wishes.

After a breath, two figures suddenly rose into the air, quickly moved away from the Demonic Abyss, and galloped towards the horizon.

The two of them, Zhao Sheng, followed the mysterious guidance and finally embarked on the long journey home.

…

More than twenty days passed by unconsciously.

Zhao Sheng and the two traveled day and night, flying hundreds of thousands of miles, bypassing many forbidden areas along the way, and encountered dangerous dangers several times, but they survived smoothly.

It has to be said that the danger level of the Immortal Burial Ruins has once again refreshed Zhao Sheng's understanding.

There are so many unknowns and mysteries here that it is unimaginable, and the degree of danger is far beyond the imagination of the world.

Even though Wuzhiqi "knows the way" and even though this return route has been traveled many times before, it is still difficult and full of dangers along the way!

The most dangerous thing is not the indigenous creatures in the "oasis" along the way, but the strange "phenomenon" that may appear anytime and anywhere, as well as the terrifying "beings" that wander around and are immortal.

On this day, a touch of green suddenly appeared at the end of the barren land, and soon a huge oasis stretching for hundreds of miles came into view.

Densely packed dark green vines stretch across the ground and sky, intertwining with each other and full of vitality.

However, this vine oasis is very quiet, there is no sound of insects or birds, and no animals are seen in it.

When Zhao Sheng saw this oasis, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and the fatigue in his heart was greatly reduced.

Seeing this piece of spirit-eating vines meant that the two of them were not far from Qixufang, and they would arrive at the volcanoes outside Fang City in about ten days' flight.

Wuzhiqi was obviously more familiar with this vine oasis than he was, so he suggested: "Junior brother Kui Niu, after flying like this, how about we go down and repair it for a while?"

"good--"

Zhao Sheng spoke with a smile, but as soon as he said one word, a sudden change occurred!

A strange buzzing sound suddenly came from high in the sky above. In the gray-white clouds, a huge gray-white vortex suddenly appeared out of thin air. The center of the vortex was extremely deep, and waves of terrifying fluctuations that destroyed the world came from it.

Immediately afterwards, a huge tongue covered with purple and black hooks, which was ten thousand feet in size, stretched out from behind the whirlpool. An unimaginable terrifying pressure spread out from it, and the entire void seemed to be unable to withstand the power of the giant tongue. Heavy, a violent shock tore open dense black cracks, covering the sky for hundreds of miles, and the sky was instantly dark.

Zhao Sheng and Wuzhi Qi's expressions changed drastically at the same time, with horrified looks in their eyes. They both roared at the same time and plummeted downwards.

However, this is all just their imagination!

As early as the moment when the giant tongue poked out of the void, the two of them were like insects solidified in amber. Their bodies could not move at all, and their whole bodies instantly froze in mid-air.

"Nima, what kind of terrifying existence is this!"

The moment the giant tongue appeared, Zhao Sheng's face suddenly changed, and he did not hesitate to activate the life-saving magic skill of Space-Time Shift. However, at the moment of activation, an unspeakable terror suddenly arose in the depths of his soul, as if He will die in the next second.

Zhao Sheng's eyes were horrified and he stopped subconsciously, his heart filled with despair.

This kind of despair is not his intention, but comes from the purest instinct of life, because suddenly facing a high-level existence, instinct will produce fear, and fear will breed despair!

This desperation may be a concentrated emotional manifestation of the cells in the body, which is almost incomprehensible.

At this moment, time seemed to stretch infinitely, and seemed to become extremely slow.

Zhao Sheng seemed to see the giant tongue covering the sky and the earth suddenly light up with a faint black light, and countless ancient symbols appeared in the light.

Immediately afterwards, the giant tongue hung down from the sky and "gently" licked the earth. It looked very slow, but in fact it was indescribably fast.

In just an instant, not only did the vine oasis disappear out of thin air, but a large piece of the ground was also lost out of thin air, and a huge bottomless canyon appeared in its place.

At the same time, countless black strands of silken light spread across the void, and several strands of silken light accidentally fell on Wuzhiqi, and then disappeared into his body silently.

When Wuzhiqi saw this, a look of despair appeared on his face. He seemed to want to struggle, but he was like an insect in amber, unable to move.

Zhao Sheng was not far from Wu Zhiqi at this moment, and was also caught by the black silk light. Unimaginable pain suddenly arose in his body.

"Ahhh!"

A fierce roar came out of Wuzhiqi's mouth, and a dazzling blue light emitted from his body. A river of underworld that shrank ten million times suddenly appeared, surrounding him and flowing slowly.

Immediately, his body below the head exploded, turning into a torrent of blood and blending into the Yellow Spring River. Then, blood-colored apes jumped out of the river, stepped on the water, and shot in all directions.

Wuzhiqi once again sacrificed his body, broke free from the invisible shackles, and used his differentiated consciousness to use taboo methods in an attempt to escape from death.

"Swallowing the sky is invincible, run away!"

Wuzhiqi's extremely weak voice sounded in Zhao Sheng's ears.

At the same time, his divine beast treasure phantom bloomed with a faint blue glow, and instantly enveloped Wuzhiqi's head. The glow flashed away, and the head disappeared in an instant.

All this seems complicated, but in fact it just happens in a moment.

In the sky, the black and purple giant tongue swayed slightly, as if it sensed something, but gave up the next moment.

Zhao Sheng was unable to resist at all in this black silken light. His body visibly lost weight, and in the blink of an eye he became as thin as firewood, like a skeleton.

His will twisted and deformed, and turned into streaks of black silk light, flying towards the whirlpool in the sky.

But at this moment, the gigantic tongue slowly retracted into the depths of the whirlpool, and the black silky light in the sky was like countless swimming fish, following it one after another, and suddenly fell into the depths of the whirlpool.

In the blink of an eye, the huge vortex faded and disappeared, the clouds in the sky gathered again, and soon returned to their previous lifeless life, as if nothing had ever happened.

…

In a valley thousands of miles away, two dim rays of light fell from the sky, and in the blink of an eye they transformed into a masked head and a thin living skeleton with skin and bones. It was Zhao Sheng and Wuzhi Qi.

As soon as he appeared, Zhao Sheng immediately looked back and saw that everything was normal. The giant tongue that swallowed the sky had not reappeared, and his expression relaxed.

At this moment, the brilliance of his will was extremely dim, looming as if it might be extinguished at any time.

After what happened just now, his physical body and original spiritual consciousness were almost exhausted, and he might not be able to recover for a while.

Recalling the terrifying power of the giant tongue, it seemed to be even greater than the previous skull-shaped dragon bat. If those beings hadn't noticed the two ants, or they would have confessed them there on the spot, this made Zhao Sheng feel frightened just thinking about it!

Thinking of this, he looked around and saw that it was quite peaceful here, so he took the opportunity to recuperate for some time.

"It seems that we were lucky. We were lucky enough to escape from the swallowing tongue." Wuzhiqi licked his lips, his slightly frightened voice filled with joy.

It seemed that he was really scared.

"Brother, how terrifying is that thing? Could it be comparable to a true immortal?" Zhao Sheng was so frightened that he suddenly asked in a hesitant voice.

"Junior brother Zhao doesn't know. This kind of existence was just a legend in the past. How do I know its true identity? However, according to ancient legend, this thing is transformed by the law of the great road. The weakest one is not inferior to the Immortal Immortal. Some existences It can even... As long as you know, don't mention it casually in the future. Otherwise, you will be in trouble." Wuzhiqi sighed, obviously not wanting to continue talking about this topic.

In the Immortal Burial Ruins, it is often inappropriate to mention those taboos. Because speaking a taboo name can easily attract bad luck. For example, Swallowing Heaven is a similar taboo existence.

Listening to the words in his mouth, Zhao Sheng didn't know that the other party had concerns, but he was quite sensible and did not continue to ask.

Zhao Sheng shook his head, put aside the doubts in his mind, looked at Wuzhiqi's head, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.

The two returned from the Demon Abyss this time. Although they were in danger many times along the way, they survived safely.

Unexpectedly, he was about to return to Qixufang, but he suddenly encountered such a taboo existence, and almost died.

It’s really a strange fate and an unpredictable fate!
