Chapter 168 Human settlements with high walls
Xuanwu star.

The nameless swamp, deep underground.

In the secret room, Cheng Huo sat cross-legged, placed a large blue cauldron in front of him, and poured a little 'power of pain' into it.

This big cyan cauldron is named 'Shendao Ding', and it is a treasure used for communication and information exchange among members of the organization 'Shadow Pavilion'.

The members of the Shadow Pavilion use the 'power of emotion', that is, the cultivator's own cultivation as currency.

——After avoiding the catastrophe in the West through the "Planet Teleportation Array", while saving his life, he also deeply felt the power of indescribable creatures.

This made him feel uneasy, so he thought of using the 'Shindao Cauldron' to get more useful information from the members of the Shadow Pavilion.

in the secret room.

Not long after Survival injected the 'power of pain' into the cauldron, a black shadow appeared on the cauldron.

"How's it going, Fellow Daoist, how's your 'Art of Creating something out of nothing' doing?" As soon as the black shadow appeared, he asked Chenghuo impatiently.

"It's going well." Survival replied: "Didn't I tell you before that we have a catastrophe coming here? Then just a few days ago, some people around me and I relied on the 'art of creating something out of nothing'" I set up a teleportation array and teleported to other places for refuge, so I barely saved my life."

"other places?"

Hearing what Chenghuo said here, Yingying suddenly interjected: "I heard what fellow daoist said, but I would like to confirm: what fellow daoist just said about 'transfer to other places for refuge', the 'other place' in it refers to a certain place A continent, or teleported to another planet?"

"Of course it refers to a certain continent." Shenghuo said truthfully: "As far as I know, if you want to teleport to another planet, you need to use the 'Galaxy Teleportation Array' or the 'Star Domain Teleportation Array', right?"

"Among the monks I know, the strongest ones are only deep. They are only in the late stage of Nascent Soul, so naturally they are not capable of arranging a 'star field' or a 'galaxy teleportation array'."

"Understood." Shadow said: "Then, if you just escaped to another continent, or another region, instead of fleeing from this planet, then no accident, you will encounter indescribable creatures again later. .”

Cheng Huo looked puzzled and said, "How do you say that?"

Shadow said: "You may not be very clear: the range of activities of indescribable creatures, or their territory, is not divided into a certain area or a certain continent. It is divided into planets. .”

"So, although you are safe now, it is only temporary. As long as you are still on this planet, you will eventually be threatened by unspeakable creatures again."

Survival can't figure it out.

He frowned and said, "But the question is, don't all unnameable creatures feed on humans, so why do they still persecute us humans like this? Aren't they afraid of exhausting their resources?"

"Heh," Yingying sneered, "In the years of famine, or when war broke out, wouldn't the government collect taxes from the common people to sow the crops? Don't the government understand the principle of fishing from the bottom of the pond?"

"This" is beyond words.

The shadow said again: "If I'm not mistaken, the indescribable creatures on the planet you are on are currently fighting!"

"Really!" Survival nodded and said: "Those two indescribable creatures who are fighting endlessly, one of them is called 'Buddha', and the other is called 'Woo'. They have been fighting for each other's territory. and population resources."

"Then there is nothing wrong!" Shadow followed: "The reason why your area is invaded by unspeakable creatures, to put it bluntly, is because those two unspeakable creatures fought. And gods fight, mortals suffer, so You who are on the battlefield of unspeakable creatures have also been affected by the trend."

"Not only that."

He went on to say: "This kind of influence is not limited to your territory. Whether it's the 'Woo' you just said that grabbed that territory, or the 'Buddha' won that battle, they will all Non-stop, continue to fight for the next area on your planet."

"They will continue to fight like this until one of them completely occupies all the areas on the planet."

"In this process, every inch of land and every corner of the entire planet will be polluted by indescribable organisms."

"Under the pollution, all human beings living on the planet will not be spared!"

This.
Hearing what the shadow said, Survival has realized the seriousness of the current situation.

He asked: "Dare to ask the predecessors, what should we humans do to stop the battle of indescribable creatures?"

"Or, how can we not be affected by their struggle?"

"Well?" After talking here, Shadow suddenly laughed 'hehehe'.

Survival understood its meaning, and immediately injected a little 'power of pain' into the cauldron.

However, only this little 'power of pain' cannot satisfy the shadow.

He complained: "Fellow Daoist, you are giving too little, right? I used to think that your strength is low, so I took less 'power of pain' from you. The purpose is to let you grow faster, so that you It will be convenient for us to cooperate in the future.”

"And now you have grown up and become a Nascent Soul cultivator. Although I don't ask you to reciprocate, you can't always give so little, can you?"

Seeing the black shadow sitting on the ground raising prices, Sheng Huo showed hesitation, and sat cross-legged in the secret room silently.

"Why, do fellow daoists think I'm asking for a lot of money?" Seeing that Chenghuo didn't say a word, Yingying said again: "About the price, you can rest assured, because the value of the 'power of pain' in our Shadow Pavilion is There is a scale."

"If you don't believe me, you can focus all your attention on the 'Shen Dao Cauldron', and then you will naturally understand everything."

The Shendao cauldron in the shadow's mouth is the 'big blue cauldron' in front of Shenghuo.

In order to prevent the trap in what the shadow said, Survival first cut off the connection with the shadow.

Then, he carefully shifted part of his attention to the 'Shindao Ding'.

It's like when reading jade slips, a lot of memory will be forced into the reader's mind.

When Survival was concentrating on the 'Shindao Cauldron', countless consciousnesses entered into Survival's mind at this moment.

These consciousnesses are related to the organization of 'Shadow Pavilion'.

And most of them are about the various rules of transactions between members of the Shadow Pavilion
After sorting out these rules briefly in his mind, Shenghuo once again contacted the black shadow through the 'Shindao Ding'.

At the same time, he did not forget to inject a certain amount of 'power of pain' into Dingzhong as the fee for this consultation.

"Hey,"

The black shadow was not annoyed by the sudden disconnection of Shenghuo, instead he smiled and said, "You are quite cautious, knowing that operations involving the spiritual level, you need to disconnect from me first, and then go to study the cauldron."

The black shadow asked Survival: "You are so cautious, you must have been taken away by others before, right?"

Upon hearing this, Cheng Huo immediately thought of his best friend Li Aotian: "I have never been taken away by anyone, but I have a friend who was once."

"I understand, I understand, you have a friend, I understand." The shadow is very good at things.

As soon as Chenghuo mentioned the word 'friend', he rushed to say: "Since it is your friend's experience, then I will not continue to ask."

"Let's get down to business then." Shadow turned to chatting about the previous topic: "I just said that the battle between indescribable creatures will affect the entire planet, so if I want to avoid the impact of the battle, I will There are two ways."

"Which two methods?" Cheng Huo hurriedly asked.

Shadow said: "The first method is to escape from the planet you are on by means such as the 'Star Field Teleportation Array'."

"In this way, you are no longer on that planet, and naturally you will no longer be affected by the war between unspeakable creatures."

"However, the star field teleportation array is extremely difficult to arrange." Shadow said again: "Fellow Daoists only arranged the 'planet teleportation array' before, so they needed to use the magical power of 'creating something out of nothing', so it must be incapable of arranging consumption." A larger 'star field teleportation array'."

Chenghuo said helplessly, "I really can't arrange this."

Shadow said: "Then there is only the second solution: checks and balances!"

"Checks and balances?" Cheng Huo was thoughtful: "What kind of checks and balances?"

The shadow said: "On your planet, isn't there two indescribable creatures, 'Buddha' and 'Woo', fighting?"

"And an indescribable creature with two characters as its name is far stronger than an indescribable creature with one character."

"So if I'm not mistaken, between these two indescribable creatures, it must be 'Woo' who has the upper hand."

"Really!" Shenghuo echoed in time.

The shadow continued: "However, 'Wua' cannot gain the upper hand in this battle, or in other words, no nameless creature can gain the upper hand in this battle!"

"I understand!" Cheng Huo Ruo realized something: "The checks and balances that the seniors just said are to make the two fight hard, and they are evenly matched."

"Only by keeping the two indescribable creatures in a stalemate, can we humans survive in the gap between the two!"

"Correct answer!" There was a trace of appreciation in the shadow's tone.

Chenghuo said again: "But the question is, how can we keep the battle between 'Buddha' and 'Woo' at a stalemate?"

"Let me ask you." Shadow immediately asked back: "When your friend fights with others, but you can't fight, what will you do?"

Survival without hesitation: "Of course I went to help"

Shadow took it for granted: "Then it's over! 'Buddha' can't beat 'Woo', because it's just an indescribable creature."

"But if you call another indescribable creature to join this war, and it becomes two against one, won't the two sides be able to continue the stalemate?"

"It seems to be the truth!" After being instructed by the shadow, Shenghuo subconsciously thought of the third indescribable creature 'Shou' on Xuanwu Star.

"Shou" appeared on Xuanwu Star 2 years ago.

At the same time, this is the only indescribable creature that has ever been heard on Xuanwu Planet.

"As for the method of introducing the third indescribable creature into the battlefield?"

On the Shinto cauldron.

The black shadow finally rushed into life and said: "There are various forms of pollution from indescribable creatures, so how to introduce a third party into the battlefield between 'Wuma' and 'Buddha' requires you to adapt to the situation and play according to the actual situation."

"What's more, if you really can't find the third indescribable, you can only improve your own strength as soon as possible, and find a way to escape from this planet as soon as possible."

"If you can't do these two things, you can only wait for death."

"All in all, you must remember one thing: don't even think about confronting unspeakable creatures head-on!"

"After all, let's not say that our strength is less than one in a thousand. Whether we can see them, whether we can find them is a problem!"

"Understood!" Survival nodded and said, "Don't go head-to-head with unnameable creatures, and then find a way to make them form a check and balance."

"If it doesn't work, then increase your strength and escape from this planet as soon as possible."

"Well, it's good to understand." At this point, Black Shadow didn't want to talk any more nonsense: "I'm done talking here, do you have any other questions, Fellow Daoist?"

"It's gone." Survival didn't want to continue to consume the 'power of pain' in his body.

If you compare 'power of pain' to mana in the game.

Then those who survived and just crossed into the cauldron have the upper limit of mana value, and the upper limit is lowered, which is equivalent to the loss of strength.

It will take at least half a month to a month for these losses to fully recover.

"Since there is no question to ask, I will take my leave first."

On the Shinto cauldron.

Seeing that he couldn't continue to extract oil and water from the survival place, the black shadow suddenly disappeared from the cauldron.

"Ugh,"

in the secret room.

Seeing the black shadow leave, Survival sighed, put away the cauldron, and walked out of the underground chamber with a helpless face.
...

time flies.

Out of prudent considerations, after getting the opinion of the black shadow, Shenghuo did not leave the swamp in a hurry, but stayed in the swamp for nearly half a month.

During this period, there were no abnormal releases on the swamp.

Except for the occasional people who are far away from the 'fire of reason', which lead to insanity and will collapse, and a very small number of people who are poisoned or killed by poisonous insects and diseases, there is almost no loss of staff in the entire new settlement.

So after confirming that there was no great danger, Survival went with Lei Ting, Zhong Ran, Ni Li and other monks from west to east.

However, Li Zhuo and Yun Rusong, two deep dive monks, chose to stay in the settlement because they couldn't let go of the people of Liang Kingdom.

The monks in the deep diving stage and the monks in the blood pill stage are extremely fast.

In just three days, Shenghuo traveled eastward for nearly thousands of miles, and saw a human settlement on the third night.

It is different from the city of Liang Kingdom.

This human settlement is extremely small, and its area is even smaller than the villages in Liang State, but it is surrounded by high walls more than ten meters high.

There are countless talismans on the surface of the wall, as if to prevent certain beings from crossing the high wall.

air.

Zhong Ran looked at the high wall and asked with a puzzled expression, "Are the high walls outside the settlement and those talismans designed to prevent some kind of monster from invading?"

"Probably not."

Ni Li has sharp eyes.

He pointed to the tire-building period and the god-worshiping monks who were patrolling the high wall, and said: "Have you noticed that when these monks patrol, their eyes are always fixed on the inside of the settlement? This means that they are Prevent some people or things inside the settlement from running out."

Shenghuo followed and said: "And it doesn't seem like it's defending against mortals. After all, if it's just to prevent mortals from escaping, it's more than enough to build a high wall more than ten meters high, and there is no need to paste so many talismans on the wall. "

After saying that, Cheng Huo quietly observed in the air for a long time.

After confirming that in the settlement below, only the tire-building and worshiping monks walked back and forth, and then flew towards the high wall of the settlement.

When the monk breaks through to the tire-building stage, he can fly with the imperial weapon.

And when it comes to the blood pill stage, it can be empty.

At this moment, he survived without any utensils and was able to suspend directly in mid-air. Seeing the tire-building and god-worshiping monks on the high wall, he naturally subconsciously recognized him as a blood pill monk.

So all the monks bowed down to Survival one after another, shouting 'Senior' in their mouths.

"No need to be polite."

Survival raised his hand to support him, motioning the monks to get up.

He said with a blank expression: "My lord, let me ask you, what is this place, what is the name of this settlement... and the high walls around the settlement."

"These high walls are used to defend against what?"
