Chapter 31: Ten Forbidden Areas, Gu Loulan, Nine Deaths and One Life Has Not Been Returned

The Bone Desert, as the name suggests, is a desolate desert. Among them, the bones of many giant monsters will appear, which will increase the variability of the game. For example, in the Bone Desert, there is an area made up of keels. This area is not a man-made fiction, but is taken from Longyuan Valley City (located in Guzhou, one of the five existing dragon's dens in the Ancestral Star).

In fact, all the terrain of the Seven Leaves Plum Blossom Terrace is traceable. After all, the ancestral star has existed for a very long time, and even if the royal family is established and the states and counties are divided, there are still many unknown areas. The early Terran powers named this type of area the Forbidden Zone. After exploration, it was discovered that the ancestral star has ten areas of nine deaths and one life, collectively known as the ten forbidden areas.

Looking at the distribution of forbidden areas, there are three in each of the Shenzhou Continent and the Star Dou Continent, and two in the Red Demon Continent. As for the remaining two, they are a bit special, because their locations are not fixed, or the entrances are subject to change. However, summing up the footprints explored by our ancestors, we find that the last two forbidden areas are related to the vast ocean.

Interestingly, if one is in the air, it is called the kingdom of heaven. The other is in the deep sea, which is called Hades.

Having said that, the prototype of the Bone Buried Desert is the ancient country of Loulan, one of the ten forbidden areas. Legend has it that at the junction of Yin, Yi and Sizhou, there is a large desert, which is called the Flowing Rock Desert. In the center of the flowstone desert there is an oasis, and in the oasis there is a country built called Loulan. Later, Loulan suddenly changed and turned into a forbidden area.

Jiang Li, the first president of the Meizhou Branch, had explored the ancient kingdom of Loulan, but there were only sixteen people in a group, and except for him, the rest died. Among the fifteen people who died, including his wife Dongfang Yuanmu. It is precisely for this reason that Jiang Li agreed to establish the Meizhou branch in Meizhou.

Moreover, according to Jiang Li, they did not see the ruins of Gu Loulan, and only encountered a crisis on the periphery of the Liuyan Desert and suffered heavy losses. As for the bone-buried desert in the Seven Leaves Plum Blossom Terrace, it was built according to Jiang Li's description. (Bury the pit in advance, and you can fill it when the time comes)

Pei Yongsi and Zheng Xiang entered the Bone Burial Desert at the same time, of course, the positions where the two teleported were separated. Pei Yongsi unfolded his senses, and after exploring around, he found no trace of Zheng Xiang. However, he noticed that there was a skeleton of a demon beast about two miles to his right.

Pei Yongsi thought about it and decided to go to the skeleton and wait for Zheng Xiang to come to him. After all, Zheng Xiang fused the wings of the Black Eagle, and it wouldn't take much aura to search. But if he wants to find the other party, he will have to fly with Edgeworth. However, the area of the Bone Desert is not small, and it is really exhausting to find.

Not long after, Pei Yongsi flew to the skeleton to observe the shape of the skeleton from top to bottom, and make up for his appearance before his death. The first thing that stands out is a pair of huge black horns, but the rest of the body has no cow features. The skull is long and narrow, flattened, and has many serrations. Look at the phalanges, which are thick and thick, with four sharp claws.

Pei Yongsi is obsessed with sword practice, and he doesn't know much about giant demon beasts. Therefore, he couldn't tell what type of demon beast it was. However, when Lin Man'er was in the Meishan Mountain Range, he had seen similar demon beasts. According to his understanding, it is nothing more than a wild wolf with horns. Of course, this description is definitely inappropriate, after all, Lin Man'er is limited in age, and her stored knowledge is not much more than Pei Yongsi.

Having said that, Pei Yongsi looked a little bored, so he lay down on his skull to rest. However, the simulation of the terrain of the Seven Leaves Plum Blossom Terrace is quite realistic. Therefore, the scorching sun is really uncomfortable. So, Pei Yongsi got into the eye socket of the skull again.

After about a stick of incense, Zheng Xiang waved the wings of the black eagle and flew over the skeleton. Pei Yongsi hurriedly stopped him, and accused: "You are also an individual cultivator, so you can't choose a simpler one, so that it can end as soon as possible?" ”

Zheng Xiang was suspended in the air and laughed: "Senior Brother Pei, I still know your strength. If you don't work the terrain, how can you stop your Yiling Sword? ”

Pei Yongsi flew to the giant horns, hugged the sword in his chest, and asked rhetorically: "With this desert, can you take it?" ”

"How can you know if you don't try?" Zheng Xiang said calmly.

"Okay, I'll let you make the first move."

Zheng Xiang replied with a hello, and then spread his wings and turned his fingers into the claws of the blue wolf beast. Immediately afterwards, he swooped down, and when he approached Pei Yongsi, he immediately changed direction. After that, he flew quickly around Pei Yongsi to find the timing and angle of the attack.

Pei Yongsi was still holding the Yiling Sword, with a boring expression. Zheng Xiang turned around several times, feeling that Pei Yongsi's surroundings were full of flaws, but this made him dare not make a move. Pei Yongsi was a little impatient, and kicked at the right hand.

Embarrassingly, Zheng Xiang flew in that direction and was kicked. In the eyes of others, this scene looks like Zheng Xiang deliberately bumped into Pei Yongsi's feet. However, Zheng Xiang is a physical cultivator after all, and Pei Yongsi's kick can't cause much damage, just to express his inner irritability.

Zheng Xiang seems to understand, but the offensive strategy remains the same. It's just that, while swimming, scratch a claw coldly. Pei Yongsi blocked with a scabbard, but it was not difficult.

Later, Zheng Xiang increased the speed of his swim and increased the frequency of his attacks. Pei Yongsi still dealt with it calmly, and reminded Zheng Xiang: "Don't think that I can only strike later, and I can't strike first." I advise you to use any tricks as soon as possible, otherwise you won't have a chance. ”

After hearing this, Zheng Xiang snorted coldly: "I have already observed your game, if you can play the sword first, will you still talk nonsense with me?" ”

Pei Yongsi shook his head, and then, holding the sword, drawing the sword, taking out the sword, and returning the sheath - the challenge was over. As for Zheng Xiang, he fell headlong into the yellow sand below. And the wings of the black eagle that he was proud of were cut off by Pei Yongsi. Of course, the most lethal thing was the sword in his back.

Although Pei Yongsi's swordsmanship pays attention to the preemptive strike, this does not mean that he can only use the sword with his back hand. Instead, in the face of the opponent's all-out blow, gather strength, go upstream, and decide the winner with one sword. Therefore, although Zheng Xiang was only hit by one sword, the power contained in that sword had already destroyed his spiritual veins and injured his Yuan Ying.

There is no way, the difference in strength between the two sides is indeed a bit big. In addition, Zheng Xiang was clever, and for the sake of speed, he did not cover his whole body with the scale armor of the drill mountain armor for defense. Otherwise, Pei Yongsi's sword would at most destroy Zheng Xiang's scale armor and cut off a few of his spiritual veins.

At the end of the challenge, the three prison elders unanimously decided that Pei Yongsi won and became the seventy-ninth place, enjoying the No. 7 Dragon Plum Pool. As for Zheng Xiang, it was sad, his defeat directly became eighty-one. There is no way, Lin Man'er is in the war-free protection period, and the quota will not be changed.

The two sides returned to the observation platform. Pei Yongsi glanced at Zheng Xiang a little boringly, and then walked off the observation platform with his hands behind his back. Zheng Xiang was carried by the disciple in charge of the treatment.

Lin Man'er looked at Pei Yongsi who was coming towards her, and wondered, "Why is your opponent so weak?" ”

Pei Yongsi looked at Qi Ran, and also wondered: "Why is this Zheng Xiang different from you?" Among them, there is another meaning in this sentence. That is, if you hadn't misled me, I would have dealt with him with a sword. That would drag on for so long and waste everyone's time.

Qi Ran felt helpless and said: "You can't blame me, it's all that Zheng Xiang was clever and didn't use the yellow sand as a cover." Otherwise, it will not be a defeat. ”

Lin Man'er looked at Qi Ran and asked, "How can the yellow sand cover it?" ”

Qi Ran explained: "Zheng Xiang fused the Drill Mountain Armor Beast, and at the same time mastered some of its abilities. Although you can't drill into the mountains, you can still drill into the yellow sand. ”

Lin Man'er lowered his head and thought about it, and suddenly thought of a new way of fighting. On second thought, though, this approach seems a bit impractical. Therefore, he asked: "If the other side avoids the ground and fights from the air, won't it be useless?" ”

Qi Ran smiled bitterly: "He also has black eagle wings in aerial combat!" If it weren't for encountering a strong sword cultivator like Senior Brother Pei, he wouldn't have lost so quickly. After a pause, he pointed to a sword cultivator disciple next to him and said, "That Senior Brother Li also fought with Zheng Xiang in the Bone Burial Desert. As a result, Zheng Xiang was consumed for three hours, and finally exhausted himself and admitted defeat. ”

"Three hours? As for playing for that long? Lin Man'er was a little surprised.

"Physical cultivation is originally to use one's own defense to consume the opponent's energy, so as to achieve the ultimate victory." Qi Ran patiently explained.

Lin Man'er nodded and asked, "Who should fight next?" ”

Qi Ran pointed at Jin Sanpang and said with a smile: "The next opponent's name is Chen Yu, and he is a Spirit Immortal Realm Fire System Law Cultivator. In my opinion, it should be up to Senior Brother Jin to take on the challenge. ”

Jin Sanpang saw that Lin Man'er and Pei Yongsi had won the first battle, and he was already impatient. However, for the sake of safety, he still asked, "What special means does this Chen Yu have?" ”

Qi Ran took out a piece of shadow jade, pointed to the image of the battle above, and began to explain.

Generally speaking, those who can enter the Tianzi area of the Longmei List are not mediocre talents. Either they have an advantage in the realm, or they have special means, or they are the descendants of some big people. And this Chen Yu belongs to the second situation, that is, he has special means.

It is worth mentioning that Chen Yu's ancestors once combined with a fire phoenix, and then branched out, and there was the Chen family of Sangcheng, Fusang County. However, the phoenix is a grass chicken, and the generations are not as good as before. The Chen family declined, and there were no Xianjun for three generations.

However, Chen Yu was born with a vision, which once became the focus of attention of the Chen family. Later, when Chen Yu grew up, he took a talent test. But for some reason, the results of the test were extremely unsatisfactory. Because, Chen Yu's cultivation qualifications turned out to be the worst in the past generations.

As soon as this incident came out, Chen Yu's father was so angry that he expelled his mother and son from the house. Not only that, but he also named his son "驽", which means mediocrity, and used it to warn other children.

Later, when Chen Yu was fourteen years old, his mother failed to survive the robbery and was killed on the spot by Xianlei. Unfortunately, Chen Yu's grandfather made a mistake in his practice and died in the same year. Even more unfortunate, Chen's uncle thought he was a disaster and expelled him from the house.

At that time, the lonely Chen Yu could not live in the city, so he returned to the mountains. Nine years have passed, and at the age of twenty-three, Chen Yu married a mountain woman. Miraculously, after the two of them cave room, Chen Yu actually had an atavistic phenomenon.

Chen Yu was overjoyed and took his wife to find his father. However, sadly, the elders of the Chen family not only did not support Chen Yu, but instead hit Chen Yu's new wife with their ideas. Chen Yu pleaded again and again, but to no avail. Later, Chen Yu sneaked in secretly and ended his wife's shameful career.

Later, Chen Yu escaped from the Chen family, and after becoming an immortal, he destroyed his own family with his own hands. Naturally, this matter could not escape the eyes of Lin Xiange, and Chen Yu was arrested and sentenced to death. Fortunately, Lu Yunhe, the lord of Sangcheng City, took pity on his encounter and ability, so he recommended him to Dongfang Yunyan, the pastor of Meizhou Prefecture. Dongfang Yunyan sent him to the Meizhou branch for further study.

After Dongfang Qingtang learned about this, he gave him a blessing and made him practice at the academy first, and then rushed to the battlefield of Wushan to atone for his sins. Chen Yu naturally agreed, and in 500 years, from the last place to the current ranking.

It should be noted that not every disciple can be like Lin Man'er, Jin Sanfat, Pei Yongsi and others, who have the cultivation of the three grades in less than a hundred years. Taking Qi Ran as an example, he has a talent that is unique in ten thousand-Xuanzi Alien Soul Root, plus the master of the "Six-Rank Soul Immortal" and the resource supply of the Meizhou Branch, he can barely keep up with the footsteps of the four people.

There is no way, none of the people of the Xuanzi Alien Soul Root are based on mortals, but the Heavenly Questioner is one in ten thousand who belongs to the cultivators.

Having said that, Jin Sanpang and Chen Yu each entered the Plum Blossom Terrace, and finally confirmed that the terrain ring was a Flame Mountain.

Flaming Mountain, as the name suggests, is a mountain that burns all year round. From the perspective of the terrain, it is obviously the most beneficial for Chen Yu. But Jin Sanpang is not the kind of person who can suffer in the choice, so he set a trap for Chen Yu from the beginning.

In fact, as a formation repair, as long as it is not the terrain of the gladiatorial arena, it is acceptable. Of course, there is also the terrain that is most conducive to the development of the formation, that is, the Void Illusion. In addition, the formation cultivator can also choose the terrain with the corresponding attributes according to the formation technique he has practiced, such as the Flaming Mountain, the Land of Glaciers, the Silver Moon Mirror Lake, and so on.

After the two sides entered the Flaming Mountain, Jin Sanpang chose to defend on the spot, while Chen Yu had to find Jin Sanpang to break the formation. No way, this is the unwritten rule in the Longmei Bang challenge. That is, the formation cultivator can choose to take the initiative to attack, or he can arrange the formation and wait for the opponent to come to break the formation. If both parties are formation cultivators, this article will be invalidated.

Actually, there is no way around it. You can't let a formation cultivator take the initiative to fight a battle cultivator or a law cultivator, right? Even on the battlefield of Wushan, the formation cultivator did not take the lead in the charge. And their role on the battlefield has three main points: first, to deploy formations to kill the enemy; second, to assist in killing the enemy; Third, take on the role of commander, and command your own immortal monarchs to fight according to the formation, so as to seek the greatest benefits in the battle situation.

Because of this, whether it was the Ancestral Star or the Heavenly God Domain, most of the commanders were formation cultivators. Moreover, if there is a situation where the dragons are leaderless, they will generally nominate the formation cultivator as the agent temporarily. The reason is that those who are proficient in formations have good brains. In other words, those who have a bad brain are not worthy of learning formations.

Take Lin Man'er as an example, if you let him fight, he can still use his brain to think about how to attack the opponent's weak point. But if he is allowed to study the formation, it will be a bit embarrassing. After all, the formation requires a lot of calculations and a lot of knowledge. Especially when it comes to the seventh rank and above, it is even necessary to rely on the array spirit to replace some complicated work. (The details of the formation will be explained in Xu Jinghuai's personal chapter)

To sum up, the Meizhou Branch adheres to the principle of cultivating talents, and gives a little care to the formation cultivators. After all, a thousand troops are easy to get, and a general is hard to find!
