Volume 5: The Sorrow of the Setting Sun Chapter 379: Solar Eclipse
Mu Yi visited the whole process of the Ghost World Sacrifice Ceremony in Fengdu Kingdom. During the whole process, he did not see the so-called "celestial ghosts", nor did he see a priest with magical power.
"Obviously, these mortals don't know what ghosts are, let alone what the ghost world is. It's difficult to get any useful information from them.
Not long after, Lu Mo came to Fengdu Kingdom again, and he brought with him a large number of immortal cultivators, all of whom were at least above the Bigu stage.
These immortal cultivators began to go deep into every corner of Fengdu Kingdom to search in detail for clues about the ghost cultivating the ghost world. This process was like finding a needle in a haystack and could not be completed at once.
Mu Yi and Lu Mo still have some patience. They simply sit in Fengdu Kingdom, listen to the reports of these immortal cultivators at all times, and analyze possible clues and potential search directions.
Mu Yi learned from Lu Mo that after receiving Han Yue Bing Yan and Lu Mo's help, Gu Mu Ning successfully formed the Nascent Soul within ten years, but Murong Bing was hindered by inner demons and took another ten years to finally form the Nascent Soul. Become Yuanying.
Mu Yi was quite surprised by this, because as far as he knew, Murong Bing's cold essence was more pure, and his skills were slightly better than Gu Mu Ning's. Unexpectedly, it was Gu Mu Ning who condensed the Nascent Soul first.
Mu Yi also told Lu Mo about his encounter with his father's reincarnation, and Lu Mo was also amazed.
Lu Mo suddenly asked: "Junior Brother Mu, you have been practicing Yin Yang Divine Eyes for a long time. Have you ever noticed who Lu and his wife were in their previous lives? It's true. When Lu didn't know his identity back then, he only saw his wife. On the one hand, he is extremely infatuated, as if he is destined to be destined!"
Mu Yi smiled slightly and said: "I can't see through your past life, I can only see the original body of your Green Sun Divine Vine; but I have seen the past lives of Senior Sister Gu and Junior Sister Murong. In their previous lives, they were two flowers growing in Snow lotuses on the ice peak; after reincarnation, they became a pair of twin sisters practicing ice-attribute skills. It is really a fate that has not yet ended."
"The divine vine and the snow lotus are both spiritual beings from heaven and earth. I don't know if they had a fate back then." Lu Mo murmured, immersed in his imagination.
The two then discussed the way of reincarnation and the difference between life and death, Mu Yi said. It is emotions, not the physical soul, that determine life and death. Lu Mo also agreed.
Lu Mo took himself as an example. He said: "As far as Lu is concerned, although I am the body of the Green Sun Divine Vine, I have gone through reincarnations. My emotions have changed, so I, Lu Mo, am Lu Mo, not the Green Sun Divine Vine back then; Lu only has true love in his eyes. There is no difference between gods and immortals, and there is no such thing as deep hatred!¡±
"But the daytime Shen Teng is no longer interested. His transformed person was controlled by the Corpse God in some way. He has never experienced reincarnation, so his emotional memory has not changed. Therefore, he still remembers everything that happened in the past, and he still has to work with other immortal cultivators. enemy!"
"So we brothers can't convince each other. Lu said that he couldn't see the difference between immortals and gods, and his resentment was too deep; but he said that Lu's cooperation with immortal cultivators was an act of betrayal!"
"I don't know where he is now. Lu is completely unable to sense his presence!"
¡¡
After such a large-scale and careful investigation, a few months later, Mu Yi and others made a discovery.
They discovered that in a deserted valley in Fengdu Kingdom, the atmosphere was a bit strange.
It is very cold here, but it is not cold. The eerie cold wind blows, and even if you are wrapped in the protective magic light, you will feel cold to the bone; and the vegetation will wither and die immediately when the cold wind blows.
The God of Death said that this should be very pure "yin energy". This kind of cold power is completely different from the ice-cold skills practiced by immortal cultivators, but it is also very lethal.
In such an environment, it is impossible for mortals to survive. Even low-level immortal cultivators have to use a thick body to protect themselves and shine in order to resist the erosion of Yin Qi.
Therefore, Mu Yi and others sent a large number of immortal cultivators to the valley here to dig the valley deeper.
The so-called underworld, according to rumors, the ghost world should be under the vast earth, while the fairy world is above the nine layers of Xuantian, so Mu Yi and others ordered these immortal cultivators to dig down the valley.
Sure enough, as we dig deeper step by step, the yin energy exuding in the valley becomes more intense, and the valley becomes more cold and terrifying, especially at night. Even the monks in the Guyuan period cannot resist the cold force.
During the day, the sunlight dissipates the Yin Qi, which is relatively safer, so low-level immortal cultivators dig in the valley during the day and leave here at night.
With the help of the magic weapon formation, the valley was soon dug into a deep pit of more than a thousand feet. However, in addition toThe Yin Qi was overwhelming, but there was no other discovery.
It seems that it is difficult to find the entrance to the ghost world just by digging deeply. In other words, the corpse god and others already knew where the entrance to the ghost world was and made a clever cover-up to make it difficult for Mu Yi and others to find it.
Lu Mo did not give up. In his words, even if he dug through the earth, he would still dig into the ghost world and find the Corpse God!
On this day, Mu Yi, Lu, Liu Zhenren, Shan Bupo, the eldest elder of the Shan family, and others were sensing the terrifying power contained in the Yin Qi in the valley, when suddenly the sky turned dark.
The originally clear sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds and it seemed like there was heavy rain.
As soon as the sunshine weakened, the coldness in the valley became even stronger, and some low-level immortal cultivators felt a little uncomfortable.
"Go! Don't ruin the big thing I'm waiting for!" Master Liu shouted loudly and held out a flag. As he waved the flag in his hand, a strong wind blew between the sky and the earth and rolled towards the dark clouds. In an instant, those dark clouds were swept away. Blowing away, the clear sky reappears.
In the realm of the immortal period, the wind and rain were already leisurely, and Mu Yi and others smiled slightly, and did not feel any surprise.
However, just when Mu Yi looked towards the clear sky, he suddenly discovered that there seemed to be a black spot on the edge of the scorching sun.
At first, the black spot was very small, and Mu Yi didn't take it seriously. However, the black spot gradually expanded. After a while, it became obvious that the edge of the scorching sun was missing a trace and became less round.
" Moreover, this black spot is still gradually expanding, as if it is a black spot, swallowing up the scorching sun bit by bit.
"Is it a solar eclipse?" Liu Zhenren frowned and said: "Solar eclipse is one of the celestial phenomena in the evolution of the sun, moon and stars. Although it is not common, it does happen occasionally. Since we encounter a solar eclipse, let those cultivators leave it alone for the time being. Leave the valley, the solar eclipse will only last for a few hours anyway!"
During a solar eclipse, the brilliance of the scorching sun may be completely blocked, just like night falls, so the yin energy will be strong in the valley.
Under the instructions of Zhenren Liu, all the low-level immortal cultivators put away their formations, magic weapons and other objects and stayed away from the valley for the time being.
Mu Yi noticed that Shan Bupo kept looking up at the sky with a frown on his face, and was still calculating something in his hands.
"Elder Shan, is there something wrong?" Lu also paid attention to this matter and asked aloud.
Shanbupa said in a deep voice: "It's weird! All solar and lunar eclipses are caused by the evolution of the sun, moon and stars, and they have certain laws. I have studied the art of formations and have certain insights into the evolution of the positions of the sun, moon and stars; I watched the stars at night yesterday, and based on the positions of the stars, it is absolutely impossible for a solar eclipse to happen today!"
"Elder Shan is saying that this is not a solar eclipse, but there is another mystery?" Lu Mo said in a daze.
"Yes, that's what I mean!" Shanbupa nodded solemnly, looking very confident.
" In terms of observing the sky and forming formations, no one in the world can compare to this great elder of the Shan family who is famous for his formations. This statement came from his mouth, and most of the people believed it.
"It's not a celestial phenomenon, could it be man-made?" Master Liu murmured: "Is there someone using a powerful technique that can cover the sun and the moon?"
For ordinary cultivators, this is very unbelievable, but these people are all top-level beings in the human race. They know very well that in such a big world, it is indeed possible that such skills exist, or through formations, treasures and other Use magical means to cover the sky and the sun.
"Could it be that in this human world, besides us, are there other hermit masters?" Master Liu, Shanbupa and others looked at each other in shock.
In the sky, the scorching sun was being blocked bit by bit by black spots, but the black spots could not completely block the scorching sunlight, so it appeared dark and translucent; not long after, the entire sun was covered by black spots and became dim. It's dark, and the sunlight coming out is much weaker.
Suddenly the wind blew strongly in the valley and the air was biting.
"Sure enough, it is not an ordinary solar eclipse, but a way to temporarily block most of the sunlight. Who did it? What is his purpose in doing this?" Liu Zhenren said to himself doubtfully.
"Is there an expert who wants to practice the Ice-Cold Technique, so he blocks the sunlight?" He guessed casually, but quickly shook his head and rejected his idea: "This is also unlikely. The sunlight does not have much influence on the Ice-Cold Technique. There are many restraint effects, and besides, as long as you choose to practice in some extremely cold places, you can ignore the problem of sunlight and don¡¯t have to go to great lengths to block the sunlight.¡±
Lu Mo also made a confused excuse and said: "Yes, I have only heard that there are exercises that can absorb the essence of the sun from the sun as the basis of cultivation, but I have not heard of any exercises that must avoid the sun. After all, the sun is The source of energy for all living things, as long as it is used properly, it will definitely?It¡¯s beneficial and harmless! "
"It's definitely someone who can block the sun. What is it doing? If you want to avoid the sun, why not just do it at night?"
"Unless what they want to do cannot be accomplished overnight, and they are very afraid of the sun."
"What on earth is this thing that is afraid of the sunlight?" Master Liu murmured again.
Hearing this sentence was like thunder in Mu Yi's ears.
"Could it be a ghost cultivator?" Mu Yi exclaimed, remembering some of what the God of Death said about ghost cultivators.
"Ghost cultivator?" Everyone was shocked and couldn't believe it, but looking down at the windy valley below them, they knew that what Mu Yi said was indeed possible! (To be continued.)
