Immortality and Immortality: Liver Experience Begins in the Desert

Chapter 360 Village
Jiang Qiong felt a black screen before her eyes, and her body seemed to be torn apart by an invisible force, unable to struggle.

He tried hard to keep his body steady, but the suction was too strong for him to resist.

Under the influence of this suction force, everyone was sucked into the crack. It was pitch black in front of their eyes, and the only sound in their ears was the whistling wind and the screams of their companions.

After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Qiong finally felt herself fall heavily to the ground.

He endured the pain, opened his eyes with difficulty, and found himself in a strange place.

The sky here is still gloomy, and there is thick fog all around, and the vision is extremely limited.

The ground was covered with strangely shaped rocks, as if some unknown force had twisted them into this shape.

Jiang Qiong struggled to stand up and looked around, trying to find any trace of other people.

However, the thick fog obscured his vision and the silence was unsettling.

He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and thought to himself: "Where exactly is this place? Where did everyone else go?"

Just then, he vaguely heard a low whimpering sound coming from the distance, as if some creature was wailing.

Jiang Qiong followed the sound cautiously. The rocks under her feet were uneven, and she had to take every step carefully.

Not long after he started walking, he saw a few vague figures in the fog ahead.

"Meet other cultivators?" Jiang Qiong was delighted and quickened his pace.

When he got closer, he found that those figures were his companions. They all looked terrified, and were obviously frightened by this sudden change.

"Senior, are you okay?" One of his companions saw him and immediately ran up to him and asked with concern.

"I'm fine, how about you?" Jiang Qiong nodded and glanced at everyone. She found that although everyone looked a little embarrassed, they were all fine.

"We are fine, but we don't know where this place is. The surrounding environment is too weird." Another companion said with a frown.

Jiang Qiong nodded in agreement and was about to say something when he suddenly heard a slight sound of footsteps not far away.

Everyone immediately became alert, tightened their weapons, and looked nervously in the direction where the sound came from.

As the footsteps got closer, a tall figure gradually emerged from the fog.

The man was wearing a black cloak and his face was covered with a veil, revealing only a pair of cold eyes.

He slowly walked in front of the crowd, looking at them with cold eyes.

"Who are you? Why are you here?" The man's voice was low, revealing an unquestionable majesty.

Jiang Qiong took a step forward and said in a deep voice: "We are adventurers who have strayed into this place by mistake. We don't know where this place is. Please give us some advice."

The man snorted coldly, with a trace of disdain in his eyes: "This is the secret land of the underworld. Mortals who trespass without permission will be punished."

"The Secret Realm of the Netherworld?" Jiang Qiong was shocked. He had never heard of this name before, but it was not difficult to hear from the man's tone that this was definitely not an ordinary place.

"Since you have already entered, it is impossible for you to leave easily." The man said coldly: "However, I can give you a chance."

"If you can find the 'Heart of the Netherworld' in the secret realm, I can consider letting you go."

"Heart of the Netherworld?" Jiang Qiong frowned and couldn't help asking, "What is that?"

The man did not answer, but just looked at them coldly, then turned and disappeared into the thick fog. Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a moment.

"What should we do now?" asked a companion anxiously.

Jiang Qiong pondered for a moment and said firmly: "Now that we are here, we can only face the challenge and find the 'Heart of the Netherworld'. This is our only way out."

Everyone nodded in agreement. Although their hearts were filled with fear and anxiety, there was no way back and they could only move forward bravely.

They struggled forward in the thick fog, and from time to time they could hear strange noises coming from the distance, as if countless pairs of eyes were watching them in secret.

Jiang Qiong was constantly circulating the spiritual energy in his body, scanning his surroundings vigilantly, ready to deal with any possible danger at any time.

After walking for a while, they came to an open area. The fog thinned a little and the view became wider.

At this moment, Jiang Qiong suddenly found a corpse on the ground in front of him. It was obvious that the person had been dead for a long time. Some broken equipment and weapons were scattered next to the corpse.

"It seems that someone else has mistakenly entered here before."

A monk whispered, with a hint of fear in his tone.

Jiang Qiong nodded and became more alert. This place was full of unknown dangers and they had to stay vigilant at all times.

In this dark and mysterious place full of unknown dangers, any negligence may lead to fatal consequences.

Jiang Qiong closed his eyes, circulated the spiritual energy in his body, and his spiritual awareness quickly spread out, trying to explore the surrounding environment.

Wherever the spiritual consciousness reached, the thick fog seemed to be torn open, revealing the scene hidden in the fog.

Jiang Qiong sensed carefully and suddenly found that there seemed to be the outline of a building complex in the distance, with several tall towers and some low houses vaguely visible.

He was inspired and immediately told his companions about his discovery.

"There seems to be a village ahead. Let's go over and take a look. Maybe we can find some clues." Jiang Qiong said in a low voice.

Everyone nodded in agreement. Although they were full of doubts and uneasiness, they had no choice but to follow Jiang Qiong.

They moved forward in that direction with difficulty along the rugged mountain road.

Along the way, the surrounding scenery became more and more bizarre. The strangely shaped rocks were twisted like ghosts, and some even emitted a faint fluorescence.

They passed through a dead forest. The trees seemed to have been twisted into strange shapes by some powerful force, and their branches stretched towards the sky like claws.

The ground was covered with thick fallen leaves, and every step made a rustling sound, which made people shudder.

Occasionally, a low whimpering sound could be heard in the distance, like the wail of some unknown creature.

Jiang Qiong and his group carefully passed through this strange forest and continued to move forward.

Gradually, the fog began to thin, and the field of vision gradually became wider. They came to an open area, and the scene before them made them stunned.

There was indeed a village not far ahead.

The architectural style of the village is simple and luxurious. Tall stone walls surround the entire village, and the walls are carved with complex patterns and runes, like some kind of powerful barrier.

There is a huge stone gate at the entrance of the village, inlaid with several sparkling gems, emitting a faint light.

Jiang Qiong and his companions looked at each other, their hearts filled with confusion and curiosity.

They walked slowly to the stone gate, where two monks in gorgeous robes stood.

Seeing them, the village monks smiled and were very friendly.

"Welcome to the Netherworld Village, guests who have come from afar." One of the monks said with a smile, with a hint of respect in his tone.

Jiang Qiong hesitated for a moment, then clasped his fists and said, "We are adventurers who have strayed into this place by mistake. We don't know where this place is. Please guide us." The village monk smiled and replied, "This is the Netherworld Village, a safe haven in the Netherworld Secret Realm."

"Come on, come in and rest for a while, we will provide you with help."

Jiang Qiong and his companions looked at each other. Although they still had doubts in their hearts, they had no choice but to follow the monks into the village.

Passing through the stone gate, they entered a wide street with neatly arranged houses on both sides, the architectural style was simple and elegant.

The streets are bustling with people. The villagers are wearing various kinds of monk robes and look relaxed and contented, as if this is an isolated paradise.

Jiang Qiong noticed that these villagers were emitting powerful spiritual energy fluctuations, and they were obviously cultivators with outstanding cultivation.

"Please follow me, we will arrange accommodation for you."

The monk led them through the streets and came to a luxurious house.

There are two stone lions at the gate of the house, which are exquisitely carved and lifelike.

The village monk pushed open the door and motioned for them to go in.

The interior of the house is gorgeously decorated, the courtyard is planted with all kinds of exotic flowers and plants, and the air is filled with a faint floral fragrance.

Several maids came forward, bowed respectfully, and led Jiang Qiong and others into a spacious living room.

The living room is furnished with exquisite furniture and decorations, and there are several ancient paintings hanging on the walls, making it look particularly elegant.

"Please take a seat. We will prepare tea and food for you."

The monk said with a smile, then turned and left.

Jiang Qiong and his companions sat down. Several of the lower-ranking monks still felt a little uneasy, but the luxurious scene before them made them relax a little.

Soon, several maids came in with tea and snacks, and said softly, "Please have tea."

Jiang Qiong picked up the teacup and took a sip. The tea was fragrant and made her mouth water.

He put down his teacup and was about to ask something when he suddenly heard footsteps outside the door.

Several monks in gorgeous robes walked in, led by an elderly man with a kind face and wise eyes.

"Welcome, guests from afar. I am the village chief here, and my name is Youmingzi." The older man said with a smile, with a hint of gentleness in his tone.

Jiang Qiong stood up and saluted: "Greetings, Village Chief. We are adventurers who have strayed into this place by mistake. We don't know where this place is. Please give us some advice."

Youmingzi nodded, motioned for them to sit down, and then slowly said: "This is the Secret Realm of the Netherworld, a place isolated from the world."

"Our village is a safe haven in the secret realm, specially designed to receive those monks who stray into this place."

Jiang Qiong's heart moved, and he couldn't help asking: "Village Chief, we heard that we have to find the 'Heart of the Netherworld' to leave this place. I wonder if you can tell me what this 'Heart of the Netherworld' is?"

Netherworld smiled slightly and replied: "'Heart of the Netherworld' is a treasure in the secret realm, and it possesses great power."

"It is said that only by finding the 'Heart of the Netherworld' can the passage to the outside world be opened."

"However, finding the 'Heart of the Netherworld' is not an easy task. The secret realm is full of dangers and unknowns."

Jiang Qiong nodded, thinking secretly in his heart.

Now that they have come here, they can only face the challenge head-on. Finding the 'Heart of the Netherworld' is their only way out.

Seeing their solemn expressions, Youmingzi smiled and said, "You can rest here for a while and recover your strength."

"Tomorrow I will send someone to take you to the village's library. There is some information about the secret realm there that may be helpful to you."

Jiang Qiong and her companions nodded gratefully, feeling a little relieved.

After all, in this place full of unknown dangers, having a safe haven and some useful information is already a great fortune.

As night falls, the lights in the village are lit and the air is filled with the faint scent of flowers.

Jiang Qiongpanxi sat on the futon, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.

Originally, I just wanted to come here with the monks from the Sun Star Sect to enjoy the scenery and stroll around, but I never expected to encounter one thing after another.

"We can only take one step at a time."

After muttering a few words, Jiang Qiong practiced silently.

As the night deepened, the atmosphere in the village became increasingly eerie.

Soon after, the whole village was filled with a faint floral fragrance, as if an invisible force was permeating the air.

Jiang Qiong's companions also gradually felt this strange breath.

At first, they just felt a little sleepy, but soon, their consciousness began to blur, as if they were controlled by a strange force.

Wang Chen was the first cultivator to feel something strange.

He lay in bed, his eyelids becoming heavier and heavier, and some blurry images emerged in his mind, as if he was in a dream.

He found himself standing in a sea of ​​flowers. The flowers exuded an enchanting fragrance, attracting him to move forward step by step.

"What is this place?" Wang Chen muttered to himself, trying to break free from this strange feeling, but his body was out of control.

His steps became heavier and heavier, as if he was being pulled forward by some force and was involuntarily moving forward.

At the same time, other monks also fell into a similar state.

Zhao Qiang, Li Xue, Chen Feng and others all felt that special fragrance, and their minds were gradually brought under control.

Their consciousness gradually became blurred, as if they were being pulled by an invisible force into a strange dream.

Zhao Yun dreamed that he was standing in a dark forest, surrounded by thick fog. There seemed to be some danger hidden in the fog, but he could not stop moving forward.

Li Xue dreamed that she was in an ancient palace. The palace was magnificent, but there was no one in it. Only the faint fragrance of flowers filled the air.

Chen Feng's dream was even more bizarre. He saw himself standing on the top of a high mountain, surrounded by endless abyss. It seemed that if he took a wrong step, he would fall into endless darkness.

But he couldn't control his body and could only move forward step by step.

Although the scenes in these dreams are different, they all have one thing in common, which is that special fragrance.

The fragrance seemed to have a kind of magic that controlled their minds and made them unable to extricate themselves.

The abnormality of these monks.

Jiang Qiong didn't detect it.

However, while he was practicing, he felt a severe headache and there seemed to be a force struggling in his mind.
