Chapter 189: The Mystery of the Black Qi, the Strange Pillar
Previously, Su Yi had barged into the place where the black qi was pervading. Who would have thought that he, who originally thought that he was done for, was strolling in the valley filled with the black qi?
Moreover, he was not affected by the black qi at all. One could only see waves of grand sword qi revolving around him. The one who emitted this grand sword qi was the Evil-slaying Sword Record record in his mind.
The Evil-slaying Sword Record emitted a faint Dao rhythm. The grand sword qi flowed out and turned into sword Qi that surrounded his body, forming a layer of protection.
The black fog seemed to be very afraid of this sword qi, automatically moving away from where Su Yi was. Right now, Su Yi was calling out to feel the strange movement of the sword record in his mind. He looked at the black qi around him and instantly felt his heart palpitate.
There was definitely something wrong with this black qi. Just as he barged into the black qi, he heard Ji Tongtian’s shout from behind him.
However, he had entered the black qi long ago and it was too late.
Fortunately, he did not expect that the Dao treasure he possessed would emit such a strange scene at this moment and be able to resist the erosion of the black qi.
He did not want to transform into something unknown, that was neither human nor ghost. With the protection of the Evil-slaying Sword Record, his gaze swept across the illusory realm around him.
He saw that within the erosion of the black qi, the surrounding scenery had already turned into desolation. At a glance, he discovered that all the trees had withered. Not a single blade of grass could be seen on the ground. It was as if it was a land of death.
He took a few steps forward, and suddenly, Little Xie’s voice sounded in his mind.
“Big bad guy, go over there and take a look.”
After he heard Little Xie’s words, he looked in that direction and found that the direction where the black qi was flowing was coming from.
According to what Little Xie said, it was very likely that the source of the black qi was in that direction.
Thinking of this, he lightly stepped forward and walked in the direction where the black qi was coming from. Wherever he passed, the black qi avoided him and he walked forward without any obstruction.
Along the way, he did not encounter any demon beasts or anything else. Other than the rumbling sounds of spells and explosions still coming from far behind him, this place was so quiet that it was like an endless land of death.
Soon, he arrived at an empty area. The black qi was much less here. At least he could see this place completely from his field of vision.
This place was paved with a layer of stones. There were no dead trees or rocks around. It was as if this place was the center of the valley.
In fact, if Su Yi could fly, he would be able to see that he was indeed at the center of the valley.
“Hmm? What is that?” He saw a huge stone pillar in Su Yi’s eyes.
This stone pillar was erected like a tombstone, but there were dense lines carved on it. After the changes of the sun and moon, these lines seemed to have disappeared.
Seeing this stone pillar, Su Yi narrowed his eyes because he saw a continuous stream of black qi coming out from the stone pillar.
“Could it be that the source is this stone pillar?”
He walked over curiously. Other than those strange carved patterns and the black qi that gushed out, he did not find anything wrong.
However, the stone pillar itself was not right to appear here. The stone pillar was not very big. He only spent a moment to walk around the stone pillar.
However, he did not dare to get too close. After all, who knew what would happen if he got too close?
After walking around, he found that the stone pillar not only had strange engravings, but one side of it was quite flat.
On the flat stone pillar, there were some powerful words and a strange groove carved on it.
“The five elements earth vein suppresses the ancient devil. The divine seal will be activated when the world is born. The entrance to the great desolate forbidden land will finally appear.!”
These sonorous and powerful words were clearly blurred after being worn out by the wind and rain, but the words could still be read.
“What does this mean?” He read it carefully and found that this paragraph seemed to be saying something, but he did not know what it meant.
“Five elements earth vein ancient suppress the ancient demon.”
This sentence was referring to an ancient demon being suppressed in a five elements earth vein?
He was not sure. After all, things like demons were not things that they could come into contact with to attain the Dao.
As for the remaining two sentences, in his understanding, it seemed like something was about to be born, and then a forbidden land in the great desolate would be born.
Was the forbidden land referring to the current Demon Subduing Mountain range? As for the birth of the divine seal, he did not have the slightest clue.
He shifted his gaze to the bottom of the large character carved on the dDao article. He saw a small groove there. In order to see it more clearly, he moved a little closer.
He saw that this groove was in all directions, and it seemed to have some strange border lines. The more he looked at the groove, the more strange his expression became. In his memories, he seemed to have seen this shape somewhere before.
“Oh right, the demon-slaying seal!”
He seemed to have recalled something as his thoughts swept across the space of his immortal destiny seal. He found the square-shaped seal in his seal space. It was the evil-slaying seal that he had obtained in the ancient sword tomb.
With a flip of his hand, he took it from the space of the seal and held it in his hand.
The ancient demon-slaying seal had a faint Dao rhythm flowing on it. He compared the demon-slaying seal with the groove. It was not just very similar, it was actually exactly the same.
“Could it be that the so-called ‘god seal’ is this demon-slaying seal?” He thought of the words carved on it and muttered.
He took the demon-slaying seal and took a few steps forward. He carefully compared its size and shape. He was almost 100% sure that this groove was used to embed the demon-slaying seal.
However, at this moment, he was a little hesitant and did not put the demon-slaying seal inside. This stone pillar that was spewing out black qi was too strange. He did not dare to guarantee what would happen if he put the demon-slaying seal inside.
He could be seen hesitating as he pondered.
At this moment, Little Xie’s voice once again sounded in his mind. He could only hear her tender voice faintly saying, “big fool, don’t you want the essence of the five elements?”
Little Xie’s voice caused Su Yi’s mind to jolt as he hurriedly asked.
“Little Xie, what do you mean? Could it be that there is the essence of the five elements nearby?”
There was no one nearby. One could only see a soft bang as Little Xie’s small body appeared out of thin air.
She glanced at the black qi that was emitted with disgust the moment she came out. After which, she pointed at the words carved on the stone pillar and said faintly, “look, the five elements earth vein suppresses the ancient demon. Since there are five elements earth vein, if the gathering point of these five elements earth vein is the same place, then the true essence of the five elements will definitely be born.”
She crossed her arms in front of her chest and spoke to Su Yi like a scholar.
After listening to her, Su Yi’s eyes lit up. As expected, Little Xie knew a lot about the five elements. However, what did this have to do with the grooves of the demon-slaying seal?
He looked at Little Xie suspiciously and was somewhat puzzled.
Then, Little Xie rolled her eyes at him and continued to explain. It was the opening of the forbidden area with the demon-slaying seal, and the five elements earth vein was used to suppress the ancient demon in the forbidden area.
It was simple and straightforward. After that, he was even called an idiot by Little Xie.
Seeing Little Xie like this, he secretly made up his mind to find a time in the future to give her a good spanking. Recently, she had become more and more arrogant.
However, for now, it was better to put the demon-slaying seal into the groove and see what would happen.
He put the demon-slaying seal in his hand into the groove steadily.
