Chapter 2325 Blood Spirit Vein
"The things that the witch asked me to deliver are all in there. Please have a look, Elder Qin." The envoy of Kang Hui handed a mustard seed bag to Qin Sang, completed the task, bowed and took his leave.
Qin Sang opened it and saw a number of jade slips inside. He glanced through it and found that it was roughly divided into two parts.
Part of it is about the ancient holy land - Gonggong Terrace. It looks like a myth, without much substantive content. Perhaps there are key contents hidden in the details of the myth, which can only be deciphered by those who are very familiar with the Wu clan and Gonggong clan.
The other part is Kang Hui's experience of exploring Gonggong's Terrace. At that time, Kang Hui organized many masters to enter the forbidden area, trying to find clues about the ancient Gonggong in the forbidden area. Later, for some reason, the search came to an abrupt end. Compared with the long history, it only focused on a very short period of time. Later, Kang Hui lost interest in the forbidden area.
Qin Sang compared the two parts of content with each other, and just as Li said, the current forbidden area and the ancient holy land have nothing to do with each other, and there is almost no correspondence with the mythological stories.
This is related to the fact that Kang Hui’s exploration was not deep enough.
There are very few records about the insect tomb above, only a few strokes, which sound more like hearsay, indicating that Kang Hui failed to enter the core area of the forbidden area that year, and it is possible that this part of the content was deliberately concealed.
In short, Qin Sang read it over and over again several times, and felt that it was of little help to the next action, but he did a favor for someone, which was a bit of a loss.
Just as Qin Sang was checking these jade slips, the Tianmu Butterfly also flew out from the Qi Sea, landed on Qin Sang's shoulder, and stared at him intently.
Qin Sang closed the book and fell into deep thought, feeling a warm touch on his cheek, and his side glance happened to meet Die Yi's eyes.
Those third eyes clearly conveyed a determined look.
"You..."
Qin Sang showed a helpless smile, gently stroked the Tianmu Butterfly, and said in a serious tone, "Okay, I will go with you!"
A feeling of joy immediately emerged in Tianmu, and the Tianmu butterfly flapped its wings and flew up, dancing around Qin Sang.
Qin Sang took out the geomancy map and found the location of Gonggong's Terrace.
Taihao clan is the center of the Wu clan’s territory. They are now in the south of Taihao clan and are heading north to Taihao clan.
Fengju Yumen is located in the easternmost part of the Wu clan's territory, and serves as the boundary between the Wu clan and the Duizhou of the Great Zhou Dynasty. It is roughly equivalent to the northeast direction of Taihao clan, and Gonggong Terrace is also in the eastern part of the Wu clan's territory, but in the southeast of Taihao clan, within the Wu clan's territory.
If we go to Gonggong Terrace now at the same speed as before, it will probably take three to five years even if there are no accidents on the road, and we can only rely on the teleportation array.
She Shuang cannot ride on the teleportation array. As the time for the Siwu dispute approaches, the teleportation arrays in various places of the Wu clan are under close surveillance. Once a woman who looks like a witch appears, she will immediately attract waves of tests and her whereabouts will soon be exposed.
All clans compete for the position of chief witch, and the witches of other clans are all rivals. Once discovered, those clans will not mind taking drastic measures to eliminate a rival for their own witch.
"Then leave Sheshuang here and I will go alone. There is still enough time..."
Qin Sang was thinking in his mind, scanning the positions of the teleportation arrays one by one, planning the route.
The situation of the Wu Clan and the Human Clan is completely different. The eight Tianzhou of the Human Clan are nominally under the jurisdiction of the Great Zhou. The Great Zhou has set up government offices in each state and city, and the most important task is to look after the teleportation array.
At this moment, the control of the Great Zhou over the eight heavenly states is weak. Just like in Lizhou, each major immortal city has a city lord, but these city lords have nothing to do with the Great Zhou. People only know the city lords and the abbots of various temples but not the palace lords.
Those city lords were like local princes, and might be the spokespersons for a certain sect. They were the actual controllers of this area, completely overshadowing the prestige of the officials of the Great Zhou. They could even completely ignore the policies of the Great Zhou, and the Great Zhou was helpless against them.
The most declining government office of the Great Zhou even had to pay tribute to the forces under its jurisdiction, which was a complete loss of dignity.
But no matter which force, no one will try to seize the teleportation array.
This would not only amount to an open rebellion against the Great Zhou, but would also break the tacit understanding among all parties and arouse public anger, something that a mere local force or the lord of a city could not afford.
Da Zhou is the common ruler of the world. Because of the existence of Da Zhou, cultivators can believe that the other side of the teleportation array is absolutely safe. Even if it is an unfamiliar place they have never been to, as long as it is an immortal city recognized by Da Zhou, they can use the teleportation array to travel without worrying about being surrounded and killed as soon as they land.
Once this tacit understanding is broken, chaos will not be far away!
The human cultivators have long been accustomed to the convenience brought by the teleportation array. If a cultivator from Lizhou learns that there is an opportunity somewhere in the East China Sea, it only takes a few days for him to appear in Kanzhou. If there is no teleportation array, even if he can reach Kanzhou alive, it will be too late.
However, the Wu Clan was not unified, and the major clans were fighting openly and secretly. Even though they imitated the human race and built a teleportation array system, there were various problems.
Firstly, the Wu Clan did not have a large teleportation array that could cross the eight continents. Most of them were limited to neighboring clans. If the place they wanted to go was too far, they could only migrate again and again.
Secondly, there is no strong means to restrain all clans. Once passing through a clan that is not on good terms with one's own clan, it is equivalent to rushing into the enemy's base camp, and the outcome can be imagined. Even if there is no hatred between the two clans, they must be cautious and only allies can be trusted. Therefore, when Wu clan monks travel, they often have to rely on flying.
Qin Sang had to plan his route carefully when he was going to Gonggong Terrace. However, he paid a favor and asked Kang Hui for not only the classics but also a token of Li.
With this token, one can take advantage of Kang Hui's ally's teleportation array and reach Gonggong's platform as soon as possible.
It just so happened that Kang Hui had many allies, and they were concentrated in the southeastern part of the Wu tribe.
"Did all these clans split from Gonggong clan?"
Qin Sang pondered in his heart.
He has been dealing with the Wu Clan for such a long time, but he still has no clear concept of the distribution of the Wu Clan's power.
Unlike the alien race, which is divided into two parts, the Water and Sky, and the upper and the imperial clans, the major clans of the Wu clan are scattered across the land, like stars in the sky, seemingly independent of each other, yet with complex relationships.
How many allies does a clan have, and why do they form alliances? Is the alliance solid? Is the territory of a small clan adjacent to another large clan, and is it a vassal of this clan?
Outsiders had no idea what was going on and were like looking at flowers in the fog. They were completely bewildered and felt that the Witch Clan was in chaos.
Now, Qin Sang has grasped some clues and decided to check how many ancient clans similar to Gonggong there are.
They are the original source!
"Water God..."
Qin Sang thought of the records about Gonggong clan, "Among the Wu clan, are all the clans with magical powers related to water related to Gonggong clan?"
Thinking of this, long-lost memories emerged. He vaguely remembered that Liuying seemed to have this talent, but unfortunately the inheritance of the Storm Realm was cut off, and the talent of his own bloodline had no place to be used.
Can we find the firefly using this clue?
Qin Sang's thoughts gradually dispersed, and his eyes fell on the geomancy map again. He decided to investigate the origin of Gonggong when he had time.
Next, Qin Sang found a safe cave, set up a formation, ordered She Shuang to wait there, and set out on the journey to Gonggong's Terrace.
……
A few months later.
Qin Sang traveled a long way and finally arrived at Gonggong's Terrace under the guidance of the geomancy map.
The journey was very smooth. All the clans were focused on the fight for the position of Siwu. Qin Sang was alone. He took out Li's token and was immediately let go.
“God’s Blood-Crying Plain…”
Qin Sang looked ahead, reciting the other name of this forbidden area, curious about what the scene was like.
"Woooo..."
Before he saw Gonggong's Terrace, Qin Sang faintly heard bursts of strange noises, like the crying of ghosts and gods.
Looking down at the land, it is full of lush greenery and vitality.
The power emitted from Fengju Yumen turned the area outside Yumen Pass into yellow sand. It is normal for such a great force to change the celestial phenomena and landforms.
Qin Sang estimated the distance. Gonggong's Terrace was only a thousand miles away, but this place was not affected at all. It seemed that the power of Gonggong's Terrace was very restrained.
As they continued to fly, Qin Sang suddenly narrowed his eyes and saw a blood line appear on the horizon. He continued to move forward and then he could see clearly that it was a blood cloud covering the sky.
At this point, the direction of the mountains on the earth began to change, just like a river encountering reefs, the water flow was forced to separate, and the mountain ranges extended to both sides, until they reached infinity.
Gonggong's Terrace is not the largest of the ten forbidden areas, with a radius of tens of thousands of miles. It is said that the terrain of Gonggong's Terrace is like a basin, high outside and low inside, surrounded by countless mountains and ridges.
In the direction of Qinsang, the basin extends out like a wooden ladle, becoming the recognized entrance to the forbidden area. It was from here that Kang Hui entered.
The entrance is actually a mountain pass. There are three such passes in total, distributed in front of Qin Sang. All of them can be entered with little difference.
Qin Sang glanced around, identified the direction, and randomly selected a mountain pass, but slowed down when he approached the pass.
Until we got close to the mountain pass, we didn’t see a single person!
"It seems to be affected by the sound of God's weeping..."
Qin Sang said secretly.
As one of the ten forbidden areas, Fengju Yumen is even more dangerous than Gonggong Terrace, but many low-level cultivators rely on it for survival. The periphery of Fengju Yumen is not that dangerous. As long as you are alert and avoid "natural disasters", low-level cultivators can also get opportunities if they are lucky.
The Gonggong Platform is different. There is not a single low-level cultivator to be seen around.
Qin Sang listened attentively. The sound of the god's weeping was like a devil's sound filling his head, able to stir up the deepest parts of people's hearts, stirring up all kinds of negative emotions such as sadness, pain, hatred, etc.
This was only the outermost part. A Divine Transformation cultivator would also be affected if he stayed there for too long, and would become restless. A low-level cultivator had no ability to resist the sound of the God's Cry, and would be tantamount to committing suicide.
According to the records of Kang Hui's ancestors, once entering the depths of the forbidden area, even the Void Refining cultivators could not completely block the influence of the Sound of the God's Weeping, and this was only one of the dangers of the forbidden area. Now it seems that the power of the Sound of the God's Weeping has not weakened in the slightest over the years.
Qin Sang holds the Jade Buddha in his body and is not afraid of the sound of the gods crying. This is one of the reasons why he dares to come directly.
The blood cloud was endless and only a hundred feet above the ground.
Looking in from the mountain pass, the blood clouds inside are even lower and extremely depressing.
The mountain pass here is a thousand feet wide, with two rocky mountains protruding on both sides. The rocky mountains are bare without a single plant or tree, and the rocks are the same color as the blood clouds, as if they were dyed with blood.
In front of the mountain, there is green grass and clusters of flowers, forming a clear boundary between the inside and outside of the forbidden area.
Across this boundary, the land between the two mountains is barren and the sand is blood-red.
Qin Sang crossed the boundary, and the strong smell of blood immediately filled his nose. He frowned, then strode forward until his figure disappeared into the depths of the blood cloud.
after a while.
A grasshopper jumped out of the grass. The grasshopper was green all over, just an ordinary insect, without any spirituality.
It jumped onto a blade of grass and lay there, its head facing the mountain pass, as if staring at Qin Sang's back.
Suddenly, the grasshopper's back cracked open, and a yellow firefly floated out. The grasshopper's body fell to the ground, and the firefly floated lightly into the distance and disappeared into the forest.
In a carefully excavated cave underground, Yu Ling and others had set up numerous formations. Even if someone passed by from above, they would never imagine that there was a cave here unless they dug a hundred feet into the ground.
They were all in a state of meditation. Yu Ling's long eyelashes suddenly trembled, and she said in surprise, "That person came so quickly!"
She had left surveillance measures in front of the three mountain passes. Since this area was seldom visited, any strange presence intruding would be very conspicuous.
The old man opened his eyes and asked in surprise: "Is Elder Qin really here?"
"Well, this person is vigorous and decisive, which must be very much to Dad's liking," Yu Ling chuckled, his eyes flickering, and it was unknown what he was thinking.
"Young Master has a plan that leaves nothing to chance. I admire you!"
The old woman was convinced and asked, "Has Elder Qin already gone in? When does the young master plan to follow him?"
The old woman is still confused and has no idea what the young master's true intentions are.
"Wait a little longer! If we follow him, we will definitely be discovered, and it will cause misunderstandings," Yu Ling pondered for a moment, then closed his eyes and entered into meditation.
The old man and the old woman had no choice but to let her do it.
The cave returned to silence again, and Qin Sang had already entered the forbidden area.
‘Shashasha…’
The blood cloud above his head was getting lower and lower, and the lowest point was less than ten feet. Qin Sang simply gave up flying.
The feet made a rustling sound as they stepped on the bloody ground.
"Woooooooo..."
The sound of God's weeping was endless and there was no other sound.
The terrain ahead gradually opened up, and as we walked out of the mountain pass, the view suddenly became clear, but the scenery was all the same, full of blood!
After entering the forbidden area, Qin Sang has not seen any living creature.
The pungent smell of blood made Qin Sang unable to help but close his mouth and nose, as if all living things were swallowed up by the forbidden area, turning this place into a furnace of flesh and blood.
The land here is flat, with no rolling hills, and it seems to make no difference which direction you go.
A record emerged in Qin Sang's mind. It was a summary by monk Kang Hui. The method of identifying directions in the forbidden area requires the use of the underground "spiritual veins".
Different from the spiritual veins often mentioned by cultivators, the cultivators of the Kanghui family call it the blood spiritual vein!
Qin Sang watched for a moment, then turned and headed towards a blood spirit vein recorded by Kang Hui. According to the records, if the forbidden area was regarded as a piece of flesh and blood, the blood spirit veins would be the blood vessels throughout the body, which had various wonderful uses.
Once you find this blood spirit vein, you can see some clues through the changes in the blood spirit vein.
