Checking in for 100,000 Years-Chapter 609: Blood Spirit Ban Before the Era
"Who wrote these words, ’Langya Cave Heaven’? There’s no calligraphy skill here at all; they look terrible..." Ye Yun observed the crooked strokes and gently shook his head.
"Little brother, I actually wrote them. Please bear with it!" the Green Water True Dragon said, scratching his head with an embarrassed look.
"Eighteen Brother, you wrote these four characters? Then what kind of scenery is inside this Cave Heaven?" Ye Yun asked in surprise.
"I can’t remember. A lot of my memories are missing. I probably only remember that I wrote the lettering on this plaque," the Green Water True Dragon laughed awkwardly.
"So, that’s how it is..." Ye Yun remarked, looking at the Green Water True Dragon with a knowing smile.
In just an instant, Ye Yun had invaded the Green Water True Dragon’s mind.
He discovered that the Green Water True Dragon’s memories had been crudely tampered with; the manipulation was clumsy, and some memories hadn’t been completely erased.
Thus, a few simple memories lingered in the Green Water True Dragon’s mind.
Ye Yun then turned his attention to the Su Family Ancestor. After some investigation, he found that the Ancestor’s memories were untouched.
Scanning the others revealed no traces of memory manipulation.
Among these hundreds of possessed individuals, only the Green Water True Dragon’s memories had been altered.
This is getting more interesting... Ye Yun smiled faintly, filled with anticipation for this Langya Cave Heaven.
"Let’s go! We need to complete the task assigned by the Master as soon as possible," an old man in a black robe said loudly and urgently, then took the lead and walked in.
The others followed one by one.
Upon entering the Langya Cave Heaven, a small world suddenly materialized before their eyes.
This small world was bathed in bright sunlight, with lush green grass, undulating mountains in the distance, and a gurgling river nearby.
The air was rich with Spiritual Energy.
It resembled a secluded paradise.
This small world also has a repressive force; anyone above the Eternal Realm can’t enter... After sensing this, Ye Yun secretly transmitted a message to the Immortal Divine Silkworm waiting outside.
"Master, rest assured, disguise is my specialty!" the Immortal Divine Silkworm chuckled. Its avatar quickly suppressed its cultivation to the first level of the Life and Death Realm, matching Ye Yun’s displayed cultivation base.
A silver light flashed, and the Immortal Divine Silkworm flew onto Ye Yun’s shoulder.
Ye Yun smiled and nodded.
Back in the Cloud Mark Cave, the Immortal Divine Silkworm had loved to use disguises to play tricks.
At that time, Ye Yun had mistaken it for a powerful expert at the Divine King Realm.
"It’s quite dangerous in here; formations and restrictions are everywhere. Everyone be careful," the old man in the black robe stated solemnly after everyone had entered, pointing to a distant stone stele.
Ye Yun turned his gaze.
A stone stele stood there, inscribed with a line of crooked characters:
"Langya Forbidden Land. Trespassers will die!"
This line of text was written in the same hand as the four characters on the plaque at the entrance.
"Eighteen Brother, you wrote this too, didn’t you?" Ye Yun asked quietly.
"No, I don’t remember this stele at all!" the Green Water True Dragon said, scratching his head with a troubled expression.
Ye Yun smiled and nodded.
That particular memory had been erased, so the Green Water True Dragon had no recollection of it.
"The Master cleared the five hundred meters ahead last time. Past that five hundred meters is where the real danger begins. Everyone be careful," the old man in the black robe instructed as he walked slowly forward.
"For the sake of the Master’s mission, we would not hesitate even if it means sacrificing our lives!" the crowd shouted fervently, their faces alight with fanaticism.
This Langya Cave Heaven doesn’t look like the place where the Master of Blood Spirit Yin Gu stays... Ye Yun thought silently.
At this moment, the group followed the black-robed man, reaching a point about five hundred meters ahead.
Ahead lay a rushing river. They needed to cross it to enter the forest on the opposite bank.
"Line up and proceed in order," the black-robed man commanded, raising his hand.
Everyone formed a long line. Ye Yun, walking rather slowly, ended up at the back with the Green Water True Dragon.
The black-robed man positioned himself in the middle of the line.
What exactly is hidden in Langya Cave Heaven? It’s attracting so many vessels of the Blood Spirit Yin Gu.
Just as this thought crossed Ye Yun’s mind, he saw a gray-clad elder at the front of the line suddenly leap high into the air, flying towards the opposite bank.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred.
The rushing river began to flow backward unnaturally.
HUM! HUM!
The space vibrated inexplicably as tiny, ancient runes, glowing with a faint golden light, continuously materialized in mid-air.
The gray-clad elder roared in anger, forcibly hurling all his magical artifacts at these golden runes.
BOOM!
BOOM!
The magical artifacts exploded upon contact with the golden runes.
The golden runes shimmered, their luminescence dimming slightly.
However, the spatial vibrations above the water’s surface did not cease, continuing to hum.
An unimaginably powerful force surged towards the gray-clad elder.
The gray-clad elder swung his Sword, instantly unleashing tens of thousands of sword beams.
BOOM! BOOM...
The terrifying sword beams, like a torrential downpour, struck the golden runes, producing earth-shattering rumbles.
The golden runes dimmed further.
Reeling from the violent shockwave, the gray-clad elder suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
The river water churned, as if some new change was brewing within.
"What are you waiting for?!" the black-robed man in the group suddenly roared angrily.
"Aah!"
The gray-clad elder above the river screamed. A dazzling light emanated from him as his body swelled dramatically. Then, with a deafening BOOM, he self-destructed.
Innumerable fragments of flesh and blood rained down from mid-air onto the river’s surface, and the roiling waters gradually calmed.
"Alright, the strange prohibition in this river has vanished!" the black-robed man said grimly. He then waved his hand and ordered, "Continue forward!"
This time, the snaking line of people crossed the river and proceeded into the forest.
This prohibition is a bit peculiar... Ye Yun’s brow furrowed as he witnessed this.
The prohibition’s runes were exceedingly ancient; even he could not recognize them.
The attack power of this strange prohibition was immense. Its power was only nullified after the gray-clad elder self-destructed.
"Master, this seems to be the Blood Spirit Ban!" the Immortal Divine Silkworm’s voice resounded in Ye Yun’s ears.
"Blood Spirit Ban?" Ye Yun asked curiously.
"Master, if I remember correctly, this is also an ancient prohibition from before the epoch..." the Immortal Divine Silkworm said thoughtfully.
Again, from before the epoch? Ye Yun’s heart skipped a beat; he suddenly realized this trip to Langya Cave Heaven might yield unexpected rewards.
"Master, in my memory, this Blood Spirit Ban is exceedingly domineering. If a creature enters the Blood Spirit Ban, the Ban can only be truly broken if the creature sacrifices its own flesh and blood at the final moment," the Immortal Divine Silkworm explained.
No wonder no one helped the gray-clad elder deal with the Blood Spirit Ban. It’s a type of prohibition that demands a life for a life, a do-or-die situation... Ye Yun nodded. Looking at the undulating mountains in the distance, he spoke with a grave expression.
It seemed the numerous vessels of the Blood Spirit Yin Gu currently in Langya Cave Heaven were all "keys" intended to break these Blood Spirit Bans.
