icy.Dead silence.Heavy.
Consciousness is like sinking into the deep sea without light, being crushed and torn by the heavy pressure of ten thousand tons.Every time I try to ascend, I am dragged back by deeper darkness and intense pain.Lin Feng felt like he had turned into a shattered pottery figurine, casually discarded in the icy and bone chilling mud. Every faint wave of consciousness was accompanied by moans of bones about to crack and the heavy, dull pain deep in the dantian orifice.
I don't know how long it has been, maybe a moment, maybe ten thousand years.A faint yet continuous warmth, like a firefly in the darkness, tenaciously penetrated through layers of pain and numbness, stubbornly pressing against his dantian position.
It's that broken jade talisman.
It closely adheres to the orifice, emitting a constant warmth with a strange rhythm.This warmth seemed to possess some soothing and guiding power, faintly sorting out the chaotic and crumbling life breath inside him.At the same time, deep in the dantian, the tiny point of returning to the village, stimulated by the warmth of the jade talisman, was also rotating extremely slowly but exceptionally firmly.
With each rotation, a strand of cold and heavy returning energy, finer than a hair, is extracted and ground from the remaining and mixed energy ruins in the void.This newly born spirit of returning to the countryside no longer engages in violent conflicts, but instead carries a strange "order", like the toughest thread, slowly and persistently weaving and repairing his scarred body.
Broken bones are pulled, bonded, and reshaped by invisible forces;The torn muscle fibers are reconnected under the cold and heavy energy package;The dried up meridians are like dried up riverbeds, forcibly widened and infiltrated by the heavy mercury like return to the countryside, causing tearing like swelling and pain, but also bringing a long lost sense of existence.
Pain remains the main theme.But this pain is no longer a destructive chaos, but carries a reconstructed, cold sense of order.Like a broken porcelain, it was forcibly poured and repaired with cold and heavy lead water by a force called "Guixu".
Uh... "A faint moan, almost inaudible, finally escaped from between Lin Feng's dry and cracked lips.
He opened his eyes with great difficulty and at an extremely slow pace.
Without light.
Absolute darkness, thick as solidified ink, enveloped him.The air was as heavy as mercury, with a piercing coldness and a suffocating decay, mixed with an indescribable... antiquity and deathly silence.It feels like being in the depths of a massive tomb that has been sealed for billions of years.
He tried to move his finger.The excruciating pain immediately came, but it was no longer the uncontrollable feeling of fragmentation as before, but the stiff and dull pain after the bone was forcibly fixed.He could feel himself lying in an extremely narrow crevice made of icy hard objects, with thick, moldy bone powder beneath him.
As consciousness gradually became clearer, memories from before the coma flooded into my mind like a tide: the battles of the Bone Forest, the terror of the Immortal Law Department's steward, the desperate counterattack of the Blood Burning Return to the Ruins, the abnormal movement of the Jade Talisman, the darkness of falling
The realization that 'I am still alive...' caused a slight tremble in his heart as he struggled to survive.He immediately tried to look inward at Dantian.
Inside the void, the tiny point of return to the ruins has solidified and grown one circle stronger than before the coma, like a slowly rotating micro black hole that devours all light.It steadily emits a cold and heavy returning spirit, flowing through the initially repaired meridians, slowly but firmly nourishing and repairing the remains.Previously, the ferocious energy that consumed the Bone Faced Corpse Python, the Evil Bone Jackal, and the remnants of the Silent Finger Sword Qi was mostly crushed and assimilated by it, and the remaining part was firmly bound around the point of returning to the village, no longer in conflict.
Although the body is still weak like a candle in the wind, with severe exhaustion of vitality, the most dangerous burst crisis and fatal injuries have been temporarily overcome under the protection of the "Returning to the Market Spirit Introduction Technique" and jade talismans.
Returning to the village... guiding the spirit... "Lin Feng silently recited the proverb engraved into his soul, and his reverence for the broken jade talisman deepened.He carefully tried to mobilize a trace of returning energy, guiding it towards the broken rib in his chest.
Cold and heavy energy flows through, with intense pain accompanied by a strong sense of sourness, swelling, and itching.He could clearly 'feel' the broken bones wrapped in the spirit of returning to the countryside, as if they were forcibly corrected and healed by an invisible mold!Although the process is slow and painful, the effect is real and not illusory!
He remained calm in his heart and began to focus on guiding the spirit of returning to the countryside, gradually repairing the most serious injuries.At the same time, he also set aside a trace of focus to perceive the surrounding environment.
The absolute darkness did not affect him for too long.Perhaps due to being immersed in a strong aura of malevolent and deadly energy, or perhaps influenced by the power of returning to the underworld within his body, his perception seems to have undergone some subtle changes.He no longer relies on vision, but seems to be able to 'hear', 'touch', and 'smell' the essence of darkness.
He "heard" the faint moans of countless bones under the endless weight of time in the dead silence;It is the rustling sound of strands of cold and lifeless energy flowing through the gaps like living creatures;It is a deeper, farther away, unimaginable existence, with slow and heavy pulsations like a heartbeat
He 'touched': what made up this narrow gap were countless hard, cold, and diverse bones!There are human bones, animal bones, and even some strange bones that are so huge that they are beyond imagination and shimmer with metal or jade luster!They squeeze and stack each other in a twisted and broken way, forming this deep and bottomless gap.Between the bone fissures, there flows viscous and cold "bone oil" and thick bone powder.
He "sniffed": in the strong scent of death and decay, there was an indescribable ancient and... a strange sense of "weight" that seemed to suppress everything.This aura resonates faintly with his spirit of returning to the countryside in Dantian.
This is not just an ordinary bone pile gap!This intense silence and "weight" are more like a huge... abyss of returning to the countryside!The ultimate graveyard that buries endless years and endless creatures!
This idea shook Lin Feng's heart.He remembered the last images and sounds that came to his mind before he fell into a coma: the towering emperor roaring, 'Cut off the ladder! The Jedi Sky Pass!' and the ancient proverb, 'Those who go against the immortal path must return to the ruins...'
Is this the 'must pass' way back to the village?What is the origin of the 'Returning to the Countryside and Guiding Spirit Technique'?
Just as his mind was pounding, the broken jade talisman tightly attached to the dantian became scorching hot again!This time, it's no longer about guiding repairs, but rather emitting a strange, resonant vibration!
Mmm
The vibration frequency of the jade talisman faintly matches the heavy pulsation perceived by Lin Feng from deeper within the abyss!At the same time, a much larger, more complete and difficult flow of information, accompanied by the ancient and grand rhythm of returning to the countryside, surged into his sea of knowledge again!
It is no longer a fragmented image, but a complete ancient scripture composed of countless twisted dark gold runes!At the beginning of the scripture, three large characters containing supreme majesty and heavy will are imprinted on his soul like stars:
Jiuyuan Town Prison Sutra!
The core of the scripture is not the cultivation method, but a way to expound the essence of "returning to the countryside" and simulate the power of the "Nine Abyss" to refine the supreme body, refine qi, and refine soul!
Returning to the Nine Abyss of the Ruins, with ten thousand bones as the foundation. Suppressing the Soul and Locking the Soul, Refining the Body into a Prison. Absorbing the Resentment and Evil of Ten Thousand Spirits, Transforming the Nine Profound Powers into a Suppressing Force
Body transformation returns to the countryside, soul is in control of the Nine Abyss. One Abyss, one Prison, one Heaven
The scripture is profound and obscure, filled with mystical descriptions of the "returning to the countryside" rule and simulated constructions of the "Nine Abyss" prison control power.It requires practitioners to use themselves as a melting pot, return to the countryside as the foundation, and consume all kinds of energy (especially negative energy such as evil energy, death energy, and resentment) as fuel, constantly refining their physical bodies and spiritual souls, ultimately building themselves into a "living body prison" that can suppress all spirits and lock the world!
This is simply a magic skill tailor-made for him!No, it's a divine skill!It is the cornerstone of the journey against immortality!
Lin Feng was immersed in the vastness and dominance of the "Nine Yuan Town Prison Sutra", his mind swaying.This scripture not only provides a method for more efficiently and safely using the power of returning to the countryside to devour and refine exotic energy (far more profound and mysterious than the superficial guidance in the "Returning to the Countryside Spirit Introduction Technique"), but also points out the direction of refining the physical body and spiritual soul - casting the body with ten thousand bones of dead energy, quenching the soul with endless resentment and evil spirits, and achieving the body of Jiuyuan Prison!
He attempted to guide the return of Dantian's spirit to the countryside according to the most fundamental "Ningyuan" method in the scriptures.
This time, it's no longer just a simple guided repair.The spirit of returning to the countryside, driven by the teachings of the Jiuyuan Town Prison Sutra, seems to have been endowed with some kind of "weight" and "will".It is no longer just flowing, but like heavy lead and mercury, with a will to 'suppress', slowly flushing, squeezing, and tempering his just repaired bones and muscles!
Ka... Ka Ka
The subtle yet clear sound of bone friction echoed in the dead silence!Sharp pain!Like the excruciating pain of being repeatedly crushed by ten thousand tons of boulders!But in this intense pain, Lin Feng clearly felt that his bones were undergoing some kind of qualitative change under the tempering of the Returning to the Countryside Qi!Becoming denser and harder, faintly revealing a cold, ancient tomb like color and texture!Muscle fibers also become stronger and more explosive under this heavy erosion!
This is just the beginning of 'Ningyuan'!The first step in laying a solid foundation!The effect is so significant!
Just as Lin Feng was immersed in the shock and pain of initially mastering the "Nine Yuan Town Prison Sutra"——
A cold, sharp, familiar killing intent and stronger spiritual pressure, like an invisible ice cone, suddenly pierced through the thick layer of silence above the abyss, accurately sweeping through the bone abyss area where Lin Feng was located!
They are from the Immortal Law Department!And there's more than one!Stronger than the previous gray clad deacon!
The residual breath of the target is locked... at a depth of 300 zhang... bone fissures... weak life response... but the fluctuation of the 'filth source' is enhanced... confirm the survival of the target... execute clearance! "A colder and more ruthless metal friction sound sounded above the abyss, clearly entering Lin Feng's ears!
Immediately afterwards, several powerful and subtle breaths, like ghosts, quickly approached downwards along the steep and twisted bone walls!Their movements were swift and silent, indicating that they were not completely unfamiliar with this area, and they carried some kind of magic weapon that could resist the strong deadly energy!
The pursuers have arrived!And he came prepared!
Lin Feng's warning sounded wildly in his heart!The slight joy that just emerged from receiving inheritance was instantly replaced by a cold sense of crisis!He is currently seriously injured and has not recovered. His strength is only one in ten. Faced with at least several experts from the Immortal Law Department who have a strength of six or more levels of Qi Refining, there is only one dead end in a hard fight!
You must leave here! Immediately
He forcefully interrupted the initial training of the "Nine Yuan Town Prison Classic", and the intense backlash made his throat sweet, almost spitting blood again.He struggled to sit up in the narrow bone crevice, enduring the excruciating pain and elevating his perception to the extreme.
Above is a dead end.The people from the Xianlvsi are coming down from there.
Below... is a deeper, deathly abyss emitting a terrifying aura that freezes even the soul!The source of that heavy pulsation is right below!
Left and right... are hard, cold, and impenetrable ancient bone walls!
Desperate situation!
Just as Lin Feng was anxious, the jade talisman at his dantian emitted a scorching vibration once again!This time, the frequency of the vibration was extremely rapid and the directionality was exceptionally clear - pointing towards a narrower bone gap beneath his body, which was covered by a huge rib oblique angle!
At the same time, an extremely brief fragment of information, as if imprinted deep within the jade talisman, surged into his consciousness:
Bone Bridge... Tongyou... Speed
Bone Bridge?Tong You?Hurry up!
Without much thought, this is the only hope!A hint of determination flashed in Lin Feng's eyes, and he took a deep breath, forcefully squeezing the small amount of returning spirit that had just gathered in the dantian and infusing it into his legs!
Zhen Prison · Ta Yuan!
A heavy sense of strength erupted from both legs!He kicked his feet hard on the pile of bones under his body!
Click!The hard bones were crushed by his footsteps!With the help of this recoil, he was like a slippery loach, twisting his body to an incredible angle and forcefully squeezing into the narrow bone crevice that was covered by huge ribs and only allowed one person to pass sideways!
The bone seam tilts downwards, bottomless, and the interior is even darker and colder.As soon as he squeezed in, there was a faint sound of the expert of the Immortal Law Department landing from above!
The breath is interrupted here... there are moving traces... chasing
Lin Feng dared not linger for a moment, nor did he care about the sharp bone spurs scraping against his bones. He used both hands and feet, relying on the strong physical resilience and strength brought by the preliminary tempering of the "Nine Yuan Town Prison Scripture", as well as the natural affinity of the Returning Village Qi for the Death Qi (which allowed him to move more freely in this environment), and crazily climbed and slid down!
The bone seam twists and turns, as if there is no end.As he descended, the deathly energy grew heavier, and the heavy pulse originating from the abyss became clearer, pounding on his heart like a drum.I don't know how long it took to climb, but the road ahead suddenly opened up!
He fell into a relatively open natural bone cave formed by countless huge ribs interlocking and guarding.In the center of the bone cave, there is a suspended bone bridge made entirely of forest white bones, only about a foot wide, spanning over the bottomless abyss of darkness!At the other end of the bone bridge, hidden in the thick and unbreakable mist of malevolent energy, I don't know where it leads.
Bone Bridge!This is the "bone bridge" guided by jade talismans!
The bone bridge looks fragile and vulnerable, as if it could fall apart at any moment.The bridge deck is covered in cracks, and in some places, key bones are even missing, leaving only empty abysses.What's even more terrifying is that on the bone bridge, there is a strong sense of death and resentment that can be seen to the naked eye, jumping like gray flames!They seem to possess life, emitting silent screams. Any creature stepping on them will instantly erode their vitality and drag them into the abyss!
There! "In the bone crevice above, the cold voice of the expert of the Immortal Law Department came, and they chased after them!
Lin Feng turned around and glanced at the faint, murderous aura emanating from the bone crevices behind him, then at the Death Bone Bridge before him, which emitted a terrifying aura.
No choice!
His eyes flashed with a stern expression, and Dantian's point of return to the countryside spun wildly!The magic of the Jiuyuan Town Prison Sutra is fully operational!A cold, heavy, and oppressive spirit of returning to the countryside instantly covered the whole body, especially the feet!
Town Prison · Lulu!
He stepped onto the Bridge of Bones with one step!
Zi -!
Like a red hot iron falling into ice water!The returning spirit covering his feet fiercely collided and annihilated with the gray death resentment jumping on the bone bridge!The piercing coldness and countless whispers filled with malicious resentment instantly struck his mind!
Sharp pain!The soul seems to be pricked by ten thousand needles!
But the power of the Jiuyuan Town Prison Sutra came into play!Although the spirit of returning to the village was severely consumed, it tenaciously resisted the erosion of death and resentment!The point of returning to the countryside is a powerful suction force that forcefully devours and crushes some of the negative energy that comes from the impact!Although it brought greater burden, it also bought him time!
Lin Feng dared not pause at all, enduring the pain of soul erosion and physical weakness, and increased his speed to the extreme!His feet were wrapped in gray and dark golden air currents, and every time he fell, he stomped heavily on the decaying bones of the bridge deck, making a nauseating sound. At the same time, his body flickered and moved like a ghost on the narrow bridge deck, avoiding the missing fractures!
Behind him, several gray shadows had already rushed out of the bone crevices and landed on the edge of the bone hole.
The first person, with a taller figure and a breath like ice from ten thousand years ago, far surpasses the gray clothed steward before.The "law" token hanging around his waist is a deep purple color!His cold eyes swept over Lin Feng on the White Bone Bridge, especially lingering for a moment on the layer of gray and dark golden air that resisted death on Lin Feng's body, with a hint of solemnity and a killing chill flashing in his eyes.
Close the 'Annihilation Net'! Seal off the retreat route! Live to see the people, die to see the soul! "The voice of the Purple Ling steward was like a cold wind in Jiu You.
The other three gray clad deacons immediately responded to the order, their hands sealed, and the desolate white extinguishing spiritual power instantly condensed and interwoven at their fingertips, forming a huge spiritual power light net that emitted the extinction of all vitality, and shrouding towards the entrance of the bone bridge!Once it falls, the forest wind will retreat without any retreat!
Lin Feng felt the deadly threat and terrifying spiritual pressure behind him!He is still several zhang away from the strong and ominous death mist at the other end of the bone bridge!
Roar! "He let out a low growl, and the last hint of hesitation in his eyes disappeared completely, leaving only reckless madness!He suddenly bit through the tip of his tongue, and a mouthful of blood mixed with the spirit of returning to the village sprayed onto the jade talisman tightly attached to the dantian!
Hum -!
The jade talisman trembled violently, unleashing an unprecedented dark golden glow!The light instantly merged into the spirit of returning to the countryside on the surface of the forest breeze!
Prison Town · Soul Burning!
Using the power of one's own essence, blood, and soul, forcefully activate the jade talisman, ignite the qi of returning to the village, and exchange it for an instant burst!This is a forbidden method recorded in the "Jiuyuan Town Prison Sutra" that must not be used until the critical moment of life and death!The cost is the damage to the foundation and the heavy blow to the soul!
Boom!
Lin Feng's speed soared to the extreme in an instant!Dragging out a blurry gray and dark golden shadow from the body!The spirit of returning to the countryside wrapped under my feet burns fiercely, forcefully suppressing the gray resentment and resentment that I have come into contact with for a short period of time!
He was like a shooting star burning with the flames of destruction, and in the first one percent of the moment when the silent light net fell, he suddenly crashed into the thick and unbreakable deadly mist at the end of the bone bridge!
The figure was instantly engulfed!
At the same time, the fragile bone bridge that endured Lin Feng's last violent step was finally overwhelmed!
Click!Click click click!
With his foothold as the center, countless huge cracks instantly spread out!The entire White Bone Bridge let out an unbearable groan, and then, under the cold gaze of everyone in the Immortal Law Department, it shattered with a loud bang!Countless huge bone fragments rained down into the bottomless dark abyss below, with no response for a long time!
The target... falling into the abyss? "A gray clad steward looked at the Purple Ling steward.
Ziling, the steward, walked to the edge of the bone hole, his cold eyes piercing through the thick mist of malevolent energy, looking towards the deeper and more terrifying dark abyss revealed after the fracture of the bone bridge.He fell silent for a moment, feeling the heavy pulse and purer "returning to the village" breath that came from below the abyss, making him feel palpitations.
This place... is the forbidden area of the sect, deep within the 'Ten Thousand Bones Returning to the Ruins'... cannot be entered unless it is a primordial infant, "the voice of the Purple Ling steward carried a hint of imperceptible solemnity." The target has fallen into this abyss, with ten deaths and no life. The aura of the' impure source 'has been completely concealed by the abyssal dead energy and cannot be traced
He paused for a moment, his cold gaze sweeping over the broken bone bridge and the rolling dead mist.
Task objective: Lin Feng, confirm clearance. Archive: Lower level pollution source A has been eliminated. Evacuate
After speaking, he turned around without hesitation, his figure blending into the shadow.Other gray clad deacons followed closely behind.
At the edge of the bone hole, the silence was restored once again.Only the broken remains of the bone bridge silently tell the thrilling story of just now, as well as the eternal, heavy, and cold pulsation of the abyss below.
And deep in the dense mist of malevolent energy, it was not the bottomless abyss that the Immortal Law Bureau had imagined.
Lin Feng fell heavily onto the cold and hard ground, and his bones seemed to fall apart again. Blood spurted out of his mouth, and stars appeared in front of him. Under the intense backlash of his burning soul, his consciousness slid towards the edge of darkness once again.
In the moment before he completely passed out, in his blurred vision, he saw himself seemingly trapped in a huge arched cave naturally formed by countless massive bones.In the center of the cave, it is not darkness, but
A huge skeleton sitting cross legged, with a body like dark golden glass casting!
The skeleton is not humanoid, with a strange and grotesque structure, emitting a terrifying pressure that lasts forever and suppresses eternity!At the heart of this skeleton, a faint yet incredibly pure dark golden flame is quietly burning.
At the same time, the broken jade talisman at his dantian was emitting an unprecedented scorching vibration with admiration and longing towards the glass skeleton!
