Chapter 2326: The War of the Ancestors
"It should be nearby..."
Qin Sang stopped and looked around.
He flew here according to the route marked by Kang Hui, but did not see the so-called "sign".
Has the terrain changed?
It was a long time ago that Kang Hui explored Gonggong's Terrace. It is normal for the forbidden area to change with the changing times.
Qin Sang hesitated for a moment and decided to look again. If the interior of the forbidden area had been completely changed, it meant that Kang Hui's experience had lost its value and he would have to figure it out on his own.
So he expanded the scope of his search with this place as the center and gradually adapted to the environment of the forbidden area.
The strange sound of the gods' weeping here will not only impact the mind and will, but also have the effect of suppressing spiritual consciousness. The cultivators dare not open up their spiritual consciousness wantonly like they do outside.
With Qin Sang's level of cultivation, he had a certain resistance to the sound of the divine weeping, and the suppression was not that serious. However, he was worried that the fluctuations of his divine consciousness would be too intense and would bring about other dangers.
Qin Sang could only shrink his spiritual consciousness within a certain range, and then keep moving his body.
"Oh my, I am dying of suffocation!"
A red light flashed, and Suzaku jumped out and started yelling.
The Vermilion Bird in the Nascent Soul Stage following him was too conspicuous, so after entering the Wu Clan, Qin Sang strictly forbade it to come out and almost suffocated it to death.
There is no one in the forbidden area, so I can finally go out and relax.
"What kind of crappy place is this?"
The Vermilion Bird landed on Qin Sang's shoulder and was about to comb the feathers on its wings when it heard the sound of a god crying and felt annoyed.
"A forbidden place of the Wu clan..."
Qin Sang explained the whole story, and suddenly his eyes lit up. He finally found the river.
"Gonggong Terrace?"
Zhuque pondered for a while, shook his head, and had no relevant memory.
Qin Sang's figure flashed and rushed towards the target, asking, "How did Qilin perform?"
This place was shrouded in the sound of divine weeping. Qilin's cultivation was still lacking, so Qin Sang did not release it.
"I didn't find anything unusual. That kid..."
Suzaku gritted his teeth, his tone full of resentment.
During this time, Zhuque acted as Qin Sang said, treating herself as Qilin's wet nurse. It didn't have the patience to take care of a child, and it was really painful. If it didn't get benefits, it would have rebelled long ago.
Qin Sang smiled and said, "How is it? It has good talent, right?"
Suzaku remained silent.
"Better than you?"
"It is also a rebuilt body, and it still has the source seeds left by its predecessor. This Suzaku only has a hair left of it back then!" Suzaku said angrily.
“Whether it is a rebuilt body or not, we will know once it breaks through the transformation stage,” Qin Sang said.
According to Suzaku's experience, if the body is rebuilt, the heavenly tribulation will not be triggered during the rebuilding process. The little Qilin is making rapid progress and will be able to break through the transformation stage in no time.
"I should stay in the Wu Clan for a while and observe a little more. Then I will return that energy to it and decide whether we should go to the wilderness or return to the sea of fog," Qin Sang said, and suddenly stopped.
"You haven't found your little lover yet? That old witch must have lied to you back then!" Zhuque gloated. Having followed Qin Sang for a long time, it knew many secrets.
"Old witch?"
Qin Sang thought of the Ghost Mother and couldn't help but smile. He felt that it was very appropriate. He didn't know which one had a more vicious tongue, the Ghost Mother or the Vermillion Bird. "That's a good name. When I see her, I'll tell her for you."
"Would I, Suzaku, be afraid of an old witch?"
Zhuque proudly raised his neck and poked his head out, pointing his claws at the Tianmu butterfly on the other side and said, "Hey! Stinky butterfly, do you want me to help you? Come here and kowtow to me three times and beg me!"
‘Crack! ’
When the Tianmu butterfly slightly raises its wings, a bolt of lightning will strike.
Zhuque screamed and wanted to fight with Tianmu Butterfly. Suddenly, lightning and fire were struck around Qin Sang.
Qin Sang sighed, "If you keep making trouble, don't come out again."
The two guys finally stopped. Qin Sang leaped forward, and the ground in front of him sank, forming a long rift, like a river, but the water in the river had long dried up.
This river channel is very similar to the one recorded by Kang Hui, except that its location is slightly offset. Qin Sang continued to fall along the blood-red stone wall and felt the surroundings becoming gloomy and cold. The sound of gods weeping was like the cry of ghosts, becoming increasingly weird.
The river channel narrowed and eventually turned into two rock cracks, barely wide enough for one person to pass through.
"Where is the blood spirit vein?"
Zhuque looked around but didn't feel any change in the surrounding spiritual energy.
"Blood Spiritual Vein is not a Spiritual Vein..."
Qin Sang paused, then suddenly increased his speed, changing his straight downward trend and quickly flew upstream.
After walking for about ten miles, the straight river became winding, and Qin Sang finally reached the bottom of the river.
No matter where you are in the forbidden area, people will only think of one word - blood.
The stone wall in front of Qin Sang gave him a feeling of flesh and blood. The blood-colored stone wall glowed with a crystal luster, like pieces of red meat piled up, with shredded meat-like textures, and blood seemed to be overflowing from it.
Qin Sang reached out and touched the stone wall, feeling a warm touch, so he released his spiritual sense to probe into the stone wall.
The blood veins cannot be seen by the naked eye and can only be sensed by spiritual perception.
The interior of the stone wall gradually appeared in Qin Sang's perception. Suddenly, an unusual scene broke in. It was a long line, darker in color than other places, like a long dark red river, and like the blood vessels of the earth.
This is the blood spirit vein!
The Blood Spirit Vein is not an isolated line, but has many branches. Each time it splits, it becomes thinner, and finally becomes almost imperceptible, just like capillaries.
With this blood vein as the center, a large network is distributed underground. Whether it is the one recorded by Kang Hui still needs to be verified.
Qin Sang's eyes gleamed with excitement, and he was about to activate the secret technique when he suddenly heard a muffled "dong" sound.
"Ok?"
Qin Sang looked at Zhuque and saw that Zhuque had no reaction. He realized that the sound did not come from the sound of the gods' cry, but from the blood spirit vein.
'Boom! '
The second muffled sound followed, and then the third, the fourth...
The muffled sounds were like a beating pulse, each one clearer than the last, and were followed by the rumbling sound of water.
"not good!"
Qin Sang thought of something and cursed inwardly that he was unlucky. He didn't expect to encounter the restlessness of the blood spirit vein as soon as he came in.
There was no time to leave, so Qin Sang shouted, "Focus your mind!"
Immediately, his true energy surged, and a precious armor appeared on his body. The Mingshan armor shone brightly, and the golden light illuminated the bottom of the river.
Qin Sang sat cross-legged, and Mingshan Kai also protected Zhuque and Tianmu Butterfly.
Then, the thudding sound approached, almost right next to the ear, and could be heard without the need for spiritual sense to probe into the blood spirit veins.
‘Wow! ’
"Rumble..."
The sound of water also became clearer, as if the river water was rushing here, flowing through this dark red blood spirit vein, and the blood spirit vein suddenly "bulged".
This only happened in Qin Sang's perception. The stone wall did not expand, but became even more bright red.
"Huff...Huff..."
A trace of blood seeped out from the stone wall, and in an instant the river was filled with blood mist, and the sound of the god's weeping became even more mournful.
The blood mist was also flowing, washing over Qin Sang's body. The extremely cold aura tried to seep in from all directions, but was blocked by Mingshan Kai.
Qin Sang opened his eyes wide and stared at the blood mist.
At this time, the entire river was almost filled with blood mist. Qin Sang was like a fish at the bottom of the river. Looking up at the river surface, he vaguely saw some shadowy shadows and couldn't help holding his breath.
'Boom!Boom!Boom! '
Qin Sang was surprised to find that he was also affected and his heartbeat almost overlapped with it.
The pulse sound became strong and powerful, like a desolate horn, making people's blood boil. The sound of God's weeping also changed, shouting, roaring, screaming, and shouting...
In a trance, Qin Sang was brought into a strange world.
The sky was dark, and I couldn't tell whether it was night or day. The sky was covered with thick dark clouds, wind and thunder were raging, and an uneasy atmosphere filled the air between heaven and earth.
‘Crack! ’
A bolt of lightning struck, illuminating the earth.
Qin Sang saw the rolling mountains, like giant beasts crawling on the ground, surrendering under the thunder from the sky.
The lightning flashed and disappeared, and the earth returned to darkness.
Not only did the thunder fail to calm the unrest, but it made the earth even more restless. It seemed that something was lurking in the darkness, ready to move.
Qin Sang keenly noticed a mountain. There seemed to be a stone temple built on the top of the mountain, but unfortunately it was not clear.
It was not that Qin Sang’s eyesight was insufficient, but that the scene itself was not clear, like an illusion from ancient times that gradually became blurred with the passage of time.
Yes, it is ancient!
Although it was just a vague illusion, the primitive and vast atmosphere immediately reminded Qin Sang of ancient times.
‘Crack! ’
Another bolt of lightning.
'boom! ’
Lightning struck a mountain, and silver light flashed all around for a moment. A moment later, fire appeared. It turned out that the lightning had caused a forest fire. The fire spread rapidly, and the mountain turned into a huge torch.
The fire dispelled the darkness, and Qin Sang discovered that the previous shouting and screaming was not an illusion. There were countless ant-like figures on the plain in front of the mountain.
Figures kept falling down in the ant colony. It turned out that two groups of people were fighting. Qin Sang stared at it, but unfortunately the scene was too blurry and he couldn't see the faces of those people clearly.
The battle was extremely brutal, with both sides disregarding life and death. There were several huge black shadows on the battlefield, which Qin Sang could barely make out to be some oddly shaped chariots.
There were people standing on the chariots, who seemed to be the leaders of both sides, waving flags and weapons in their hands to command the army.
'Swish! Swish! Swish!'
Three streams of fire shot out from one of the chariots, drawing a long arc and falling into the enemy camp like a meteor, immediately killing a large number of people and cheers came from the own camp.
The other side was not willing to be outdone. The leader blew the horn in his hand, and suddenly there was a sound of earth and rocks cracking outside the battlefield.
'Rumble...'
Qin Sang looked over and saw that the stone dam between the two mountains had been washed away, and the river water was pulled by some force and rushed out violently.
The cheers immediately turned into screams of fear. The battle was too intense and it was too late to evacuate.
The man who had just cast the fire spell cast spells again and again, but was unable to stop the mighty power of heaven and earth.
‘Wow! ’
The flood rushed into the battlefield, and this side was immediately in chaos. Even most of the chariots were washed away, and the whereabouts of the people on the chariots were unknown.
The other side had obviously planned this for a long time and deliberately lured the enemy here. Their position happened to avoid the peak of the flood and maintain a complete formation.
The men on the chariots continued to blow the horns, and the sound was so passionate that a layer of water covered the army's heads and they rushed into the flood. The enemy suffered heavy losses, their formation was in chaos, and they had no ability to resist.
Qin Sang watched the figures on the plain fall one after another. Some of the defeated side fell down and begged for mercy, but the other side was merciless and killed most of them and took the rest captive.
"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!"
The army surrounded the chariot, raised their weapons and cheered loudly.
There was constant thunder in the sky, as if responding to them.
Then the man on the chariot said something and led the army forward.
Their target was the mountain that Qin Sang had noticed before. There were many houses at the foot of the mountain, and there was also a camp on the bank of a large river in the distance, which obviously belonged to the victorious side.
There were still many busy people in the settlement at the foot of the mountain, but they did not expect that the soldiers who went out to fight had been defeated, and they only became panicked when the army approached.
The victors plundered extensively and returned home triumphantly with spoils and slaves.
……
Qin Sang woke up as if from a dream. The sound of his pulse disappeared without him knowing, and the blood mist around him had dissipated.
Qin Sang was surprised to feel a chill on his back.
The scene just now was like a slaughter between two tribes. There was no sophisticated military strategy like in later generations. The strategy was very simple and the magic they cast was also very crude.
Perhaps it was that primitive savagery, the disregard for good and evil, the pure desire to kill for survival, that made him feel as if he had become a part of that era, personally experiencing it.
In fact, according to Kang Hui's records, those with weak wills will really be pulled into the illusion and become part of the battlefield.
If you are unlucky, you will die in there. If you are lucky, you can come out alive. The injuries you suffer on the battlefield will also be reflected in reality, no matter how high your cultivation is. Kang Hui suffered a lot in his search for the law of the blood spirit vein.
“Is this the scene of the ancient tribe?”
Qin Sang murmured, not only the ancestors of the Wu clan, but also the ancestors of the human race, but why would such a scene remain here? What does it have to do with Gonggong Terrace?
This is also the question of Kang Hui clan and even the entire Wu clan.
Looking at the blood spirit vein again, it has returned to normal.
Qin Sang calmed himself down and continued to do his work. His spiritual consciousness followed this blood spirit vein and the direction where the pulse sound came from, exploring upwards.
“That’s it!”
Qin Sang confirmed that this was the blood spirit vein recorded by Kang Hui. Just like before, the blood spirit vein itself had not changed.
He continued to explore and finally found his target. His figure flashed and merged into the stone wall, passing through the stone and appearing in a cave inside the stone wall.
"The sound of God's weeping is truly everywhere."
Qin Sang murmured, and it could be heard here.
At this moment, in front of him, right in the middle of this blood spirit vein and another blood spirit vein.
There is no blood spirit vein here, but it is surrounded by countless branches of the blood spirit vein, forming a natural cave. The blood energy of the blood spirit vein seeps into the cave, constantly rotating in the cave, forming a vortex.
Qin Sang stared at the center of the vortex and felt that it was extremely deep.
These blood and energy vortices are distributed in various places in the forbidden area. If they are blood veins or blood vessels, they are acupuncture points.
These acupoints are connected to each other. If you can find the pattern, you can avoid some dangers outside.
Back then, Kang Hui spent a lot of energy and only figured out a small part of it, but it was still able to help Qin Sang save a lot of time.
Just need to verify it to know whether it is applicable now. Qin Sang activated the Mingshan Armor to protect his body, summoned the Gray Oriole Sword, and jumped into the blood cave.
