ninety thousand miles

Chapter 506 Tai Su
Li Chuan focused his eyes and looked at the ferry.

The shape of the ferry is very special, like a bright pearl inlaid in the layers of clouds, with faint starlight sprinkled on it.

So cold.

Li Chuan shuddered.

The formation is scorching hot, but it is indeed cold here.

He was wearing a cloak, which should have protected him from the cold or heat. However, as he stood there, he felt the chill penetrate through the cloak and directly into his bones. In just a moment, his entire calf seemed to be frozen.

Wen Guying noticed this and patted Li Chuan on the shoulder.

The cold air was shot out.

Wen Guying walked to Jiang Bai again and patted him on the shoulder.

Jiang Bai said, "What are you doing? I can stand this little bit of cold."

"Didn't you ask me to look after you a little longer?" Wen Guying said.

"Thank you very much," Jiang Bai said without pretense, "I'll ask my brother to send you some Qingzong specialties later."

"It's just a coincidence. You can keep the specialty for yourself." Wen Guying was very alert. He said and walked towards Yao Shuang, "Senior Sister Yao, it's time to wake up."

After Yao Shuang entered this room, she withdrew the bubbles, then stood there motionless with a black shovel in her hand.

Li Chuan originally thought that she was concentrating on studying the ferry, but when he looked closely, he found that her eyes were closed, her face was pale, and her cheeks were twitching constantly. It was obvious that she was in some abnormal state.

Wen Guying picked up the sword and quickly hit Yao Shuang's head with the hilt. When he was about to hit her, Yao Shuang suddenly opened her eyes and quickly stepped back a few steps. The black shovel went up to meet the Tianqi sword, and the shovel and the sword collided in mid-air with a clanging sound.

Afterwards, Wen Guying stretched out his hand and the sword returned to his hand. Yao Shuang also seemed to wake up.

Yao Shuang took a deep breath, clasped her fists towards Wen Guying and said, "Thank you, Junior Brother Wen."

"What's going on here? Is this another illusion?" Li Chuan asked.

"This place is a bit like the Heart Abyss." Wen Guying said.

"No way? How are they alike?" Li Chuan retorted subconsciously.

"It really looks like the Heart Abyss in the records," Yao Shuang echoed Wen Guying's words. She said, "After I stepped into this place, I saw many different Dao meanings intertwined in the gathering clouds, showing me the changes and roots of thousands of Dao paths. I couldn't help but take a second look and became addicted to it. If it weren't for Junior Brother Wen who woke me up, I'm afraid I would never be able to walk out of this place in my lifetime."

"Brother Jiang and I don't seem to have this feeling." Li Chuan said: "I just feel that it is really cold. I can still feel the cold wind drilling into my bones."

Jiang Bai said: "My cultivation is too low, so I can't understand it. As for you, you can use the method you just used to look at it, maybe you can see something."

"That's right." Li Chuan said, and took out the Butterfly Spirit. Just as he was about to concentrate on looking, Wen Guying stopped him and said, "Wait a minute, let me discuss it with Senior Sister Yao. I think I may know where this place is."

"Okay." Li Chuan said.

"You know?" Yao Shuang asked curiously.

"I have some guesses. When Jiang Mei mentioned the ferry, I had some ideas. After all, we have almost looked through everything related to the gods and demons." Wen Guying paused and said, "This place is a domain, but it was not created by the demon spirits. The ferry is not either. She just used the formation to open the ferry."

"The ferry is related to the stone platform." said Yao Shuang.

"That's right," Wen Guying continued, "Are there connections between the demon ruins? Perhaps the buildings they built were to establish ferries in this area?"

Yao Shuang said, "It's possible. From the information currently known about the gods and demons, the demons have been keen on building various buildings with different functions since their arrival, which is why there are so many ruins left. In order to build these caves, they enslaved countless monsters, and that was not enough. They also used the power of black stone to open the spiritual wisdom of many animals and drive them to work." "Although no similar stone platforms were found in the previous ruins, it may be because some of the stone platforms have been destroyed, and some are still protected by sealing barriers and have not been found by us. And the gods... the gods don't seem to care about these..."

"Where do the gods live?" Li Chuan asked.

"The gods also build houses, but..." Yao Shuang asked, "How can ordinary houses last for 30,000 years without decaying?"

"Barrier, formation?" Li Chuan said.

"It's impossible. After the catastrophe of gods and demons, the monks who survived are still searching for their remnants and destroying everything they left behind." Yao Shuang said.

"That is to say, the demon ruins have been able to survive to this day because they were built very solidly and durable?" Li Chuan asked.

"That's right." Yao Shuang said, "That's why there are only demon ruins, but no gods ruins."

"Did the demons build these things for one purpose from the beginning?" Li Chuan asked.

"That's my guess." Yao Shuang said.

"What's the purpose?" Li Chuan asked.

Yao Shuang said: "I want to know too, and this purpose is the supreme secret of the demon race."

"The formation outside also gave me some ideas." Wen Guying said.

"What's your idea?" Yao Shuang asked.

Wen Guying said, "You think the demon spirits are inputting spiritual power here just to maintain the ferry, or do they have other ideas?"

Yao Shuang said: "Relying solely on the spiritual energy of the secret realm outside? There is not much. If it weren't for those strange black stones, the secret realm would have dissipated long ago."

Wen Guying said: "After the ancient monster An crashed into the sky pillar, the spiritual veins were scattered everywhere..."

"Some of the demon ruins were built on spirit veins," said Yao Shuang.

"Or near the secret realm." Wen Guying said.

"In order to maintain the ferry, and..." Yao Shuang finally caught up with Wen Guying's thoughts. She said, "Do you think the demons are collecting spirit veins?"

"Yes, that's why we need to create so many monsters." Wen Guying sighed slightly, and said to Li Chuan: "Brother Li, when you observe this place, you can pay attention to the direction of the spiritual energy here, and the ferry. Try to see if you can find other ferry crossings in this area."

"I, I'll give it a try." Li Chuan was not sure, so he said, "I'll rub the Tianyin pot and try to look further to see what I can find."

When reviewing the past, we should say: "Just do your best."

"So where exactly is this place?" Li Chuan asked.

At this time, the clouds around the ferry began to roll, and the stars fell into them.

Wen Guying said: "This place is called Taisuyu."

"Taisuyu?" Yao Shuang was also confused. She asked, "Where did you know this?"

"In a dream." Wen Guying replied.
