Chapter 1715 - Crucifix Yin Yang Earth
This place was extremely desolate, and also extremely barren. There was rubble everywhere, broken mountains continuous, weeds growing rampant.
Unlike normal grand places, in this place, there was no graceful scenery, no heaven and earth spiritual essence that flowed out, only an overgrown world. There was no signs of life for hundreds of thousands of li.
Shi Hao knew that this was likely precisely his destination. With his powerful senses, he could separately sense the great yin and great yang, these two auras.
“This is it?” The golden lion widened its bronze eyes. Its mane was golden, appearance truly quite majestic, as if cast from gold.
It carried Shi Hao on its back, continuing forward into this desolate land overgrown with weeds.
“Something’s strange, I feel a bit uneasy.” At first, the golden lion didn’t seem too bothered, but as it went in deeper, all of the golden beast fur on its body began to stand up straight.
This place made one feel a bit strange. It was extremely uneasy.
Shi Hao also became serious. Could it be that there really was a Life Restricted Region here?
Broken mountains extended continuously, all of them grand and majestic in the past, but for some reason, they were now all damaged. There wasn’t a single divine tree or spiritual herb, only weeds and vines.
This place was extremely quiet. There were no beasts, nor were there any birds, to the extent where there weren’t even any bugs.
Eventually, after travelling for thousands of li, he saw a scorched black mountain. This place was clearly different from the other places, the broken mountain as if it completely scorched, and then quickly cooled.
On the ground, there were ashes. Even after tens of thousands of years passed, there were still no changes that took place here.
On this land that could still be considered open, it was completely pitch-black, the leftover traces of being burned. It was as if a wasteland had been set aflame, the weeds turned into black ashes.
“Great yang essence energy!”
Shi Hao sensed that on this region, there was rich great yang essence energy. The reason this place was burned was definitely because of great yang power.
Finally, when he walked forward again, he had a different type of experience again. There was a bone penetrating icy coldness, as if it erupted from the depths of hell.
Up ahead, there was a lake, but it had dried up. It was extremely vast, strand after strand of great yin energy swirling about, in the form of a haze, its black color a bit terrifying.
Great yin energy, there was no mistake!
The golden lion brought Shi Hao through this place. It produced divine light to protect itself, fearing that something unexpected might happen here.
Soon afterwards, the large amounts of broken mountains disappeared. Shi Hao entered an extremely vast ancient land.
In this region, there were no giant mountains, nor were there any ancient trees and other things. An expanse of ancient plains stretched out as far as the eye could see.
Of course, this region still stood out from other places. There was a layer of black ashes on the ground, extremely thick, several feet in total. Only heaven knew what had been burned down here back then.
These ashes seemed to have buried countless secrets, making one feel extremely uneasy upon seeing it.
Dang!
The golden lion unintentionally kicked out something metallic from the ashes, in the end discovering that this was a golden bone. It was extremely hard.
“Bone of a deity!” The golden lion shivered inwardly, sucking in a cold breath. It was because it could sense that the owner of this bone was extremely powerful when he was alive, definitely not weaker than itself.
“This is…” Even Shi Hao frowned. When he jumped off the golden lion and wandered this land of ashes, he also discovered some ruined bones and other things.
Even the worst quality of the bones here were at the Heavenly Deity Realm.
“Don’t tell me… these black ashes are the byproduct of burning down deities?!” The golden lion broke out into a cold shiver.
This place was too large, while the ashes were several feet thick, still here after endless years, not scattered by mountain floods, definitely extraordinary.
“Cremated ashes of deities!” In the end, the golden lion was moved, shivering inwardly. It was because it was already sure that this land of ashes was made from the bodies of deceased deities.
“Countless experts’ bodies were burned to ashes!” Shi Hao was shocked. Just what kind of event was this? Just how many people died back then?
Shi Hao used a great method, trying to raise this black expanse of ashes, but in the end, he discovered that it was extremely heavy, like golden sand.
Broken walls and historical ruins!
Under these ashes were actually ruins, extremely grand and ancient. He was now sure that this was precisely Crucifix Yin Yang Earth, the Life Restricted Region of the past.
It was because he saw a piece of stone that had these recordings. Even though it was damaged, one could still guess at its meaning.
“The past Life Restricted Region was actually destroyed. Who did this?” Shi Hao stood in place, a bit stupefied.
Even though he had long guessed that the three thousand provinces weren’t as strong as the Life Restricted Region, now, when he saw this scene, he was still extremely shocked. A restricted region was wiped out!
Back then, just what kind of battle happened?
“Dig this place up, no matter what, we have to unearth this restricted region!” Shi Hao ordered the Fearless Lion. This was a free source of labor.
The golden lion’s eyelids jumped, extremely resentful, but it didn’t dare act out. It actually already gradually adapted to obeying orders, in the end clenching its teeth and just doing it.
There was a lot of ashes, these ashes carrying demonic attribute power. The golden lion used great magic force to clear it, finally revealing quite a few clues.
There were many palaces and buildings, but they all collapsed, turning into ruins, the debris about to be erased. It was unknown just how long they had been buried for.
This Life Restricted Region had already disappeared for an extremely long time!
Apart from this, this place had a medicinal field and a martial arena, both of them extremely grand.
“Divine medicine roots! What a pity, they’ve already rotted!” The golden lion was regretful. When it dug up the medicinal field, it was shocked.
It was because there were several dozen stalks of divine medicines here, just that they had long rotted. It really was quite the pity, leaving them shocked.
“Divine medicines are extremely rare, once one goes extinct, every single loss is significant, possibly even going extinct from this world. The battle back then really was miserable.” Shi Hao revealed a look of shock.
“I wonder if there are any immortal medicine. That type of plant wouldn’t rot, wouldn’t perish. Even if it was buried for endless generations, it can still be dug out alive.” The golden lion said.
It was hopeful, because not even normal extreme formations would harm immortal medicines. They were cared for by the heavens, able to exist forever in this world.
“Normally speaking, restricted regions usually do have a stalk of immortal medicine!” The golden lion’s expression was extremely fierce, starting to carefully search about.
Unfortunately, it was left in despair. This region didn’t have anything at all, only ashes and deathly stillness.
“Great Yin River!” Suddenly, the golden lion cried out.
While clearing out this region, it saw a dried-up river. It began to carefully dig this place up. The great yin energy was extremely strong, continuously rising.
If it was anyone else, they would definitely back off, but this lion wasn’t scared.
Soon afterwards, as the dried-up river was cleared out, black water was revealed. The true Great Yin River was seen.
Even Shi Hao was moved. Eventually, he discovered that this great river cut across these ruins, only, it was too dried-up, only having a bit of great yin water.
“Great Yang River!”
Soon afterwards, they discovered another river that flowed perpendicular to the other one. It intersected with the Great Yin River, forming a ‘cross’.
They found it just like that. Shi Hao was in a bit of disbelief!
Perpendicular rivers, formed from great yin and great yang, this was their destination!
Shi Hao stood at the intersection of these two dried-up great rivers, carefully staring at it. Where was that path?
Where the great yin and great yang intersected was precisely the heart of this ancient land. Was there a path into the lower realms here?
Shi Hao and the golden lion searched about carefully, but they didn’t find any ancient paths. There were no clues.
“This place is not normal!” The golden lion said after pondering for a long time.
Shi Hao shot him a look of disdain, almost smacking him. “You don’t say! This used to be a life restricted region, so it was naturally different.”
“What I am trying to say is that these rivers don’t seem to have naturally dried up, because there is some type of external force.” The golden lion further explained.
They continued to study this place, but in the end, there were still no clues.
“Great yin, great yang, which one is weak and which one is strong? The two of them actually met like this, intersecting together.” Shi Hao said to himself.
In the end, he couldn’t help but start to carry out an analysis. His hands moved, using yin and yang power, starting to carry out a deduction.
Regardless of whether it was the Kun Peng Technique or the Lightning Emperor Divine Ability, they both contained yin and yang changes, which was he wasn’t unfamiliar to this concept at all, instead rather adept. When he formed an imprint here, he actually triggered the resonation of heaven and earth here.
“
Yi
, this really is a natural yin yang earth. When I spur on the yin and yang great dao here, it actually seems to have life, about to revive here.” Shi Hao was shocked.
Meanwhile, what left him even more shocked was still to come. When he derived the yin and yang great daos to the extreme, this place rumbled with noise. Regardless of whether it was the Great Yin River or Great Yang River, they both appeared again.
A great river that was pitch-black like ink appeared, surging with yin energy, black mists roiling.
Another river emerged, golden light resplendent, blazing with radiance, making one about to turn into ashes.
The two rivers intersected, chaotic energy surging. It was extremely terrifying.
However, this was still only what initially left Shi Hao stunned. Then, he was once more a bit stunned, almost becoming petrified.
“These… are projections, are they true projection incarnations of Great Yin and Great Yang Rivers?” Shi Hao was stunned.
He noticed that when the projections were cast on the ground, it indeed absorbed great yin and great yang power, condensing it all into a stream. How terrifying were the true yin and yang rivers then?
Hong!
Heaven and earth trembled, a terrifying aura spreading.
Shi Hao and the golden lion both suddenly raised their heads, looking outwards. The void split open. Two rivers appeared, intersecting and flowing past each other.
One was pitch-black like an abyss, the other resplendent like the heavenly sun!
Apart from this, Shi Hao also saw some giant palaces. There were some palaces that floated in the void, even though they were damaged, they were incomparably grand, shockingly ancient, situated near these two great rivers.
“The true Great Yin and Great Yang Rivers are in the void, in the cosmos. They have appeared!” Shi Hao was moved.
At the same time, he also shivered inwardly. He sensed a problem. That true Life Restricted Region might not be on the surface, but rather in the void.
The things on the ground were only the surface, the ‘skin and hair’.
Honglong!
Shi Hao rushed into the heavens. He found hope, this place had his path home, he could enter the lower realms!
