Chapter 172 The tower under the sea(2/2)
The shepherd said, "It seems that I don't want to."
The Demon Sect found that she did not hesitate at all when answering this question, and seemed to have casually said the answer that had been confirmed in her heart. He couldn't help but be curious and said, "Why?"
"It's useless to me. I started practicing again and became different from ordinary people. It seems that there is no benefit. Instead, I will have more troubles." The shepherd looked at the sea and whispered: "I have thought before that it would be great if she could just grind sheep on that small island calmly and no one would disturb me again."
The Demon Sect nodded, and then asked a serious question, "I will go back to the Southern Dynasty and Northern Wei Dynasty. Do you want to go and see with me?"
"Let me think about it."
This is a question that a shepherd girl had never thought about before. She really thought about it for a long time before answering the Demon Sect, "I'd better not. If possible, you ask them to leave this island for me and let me stay here quietly."
Before the Demon Sect asked her why she made such a choice, she looked at the Demon Sect and answered, "You said that everyone in your place wanted to kill you very much. I don't want to see you being forced to kill countless people who want to kill you, and I don't want to see you being killed."
"If you think it makes sense to come back to see me, I will stay here. When you want to come back to talk to me, you can come back." The shepherd looked at him and laughed.
She smiled sincerely.
She has not known Demon Sect for a long time, but she saved Demon Sect, and what happened here next made Demon Sect very clear that she was taking great risks to save him.
The emotions between her and the Demon Sect may have nothing to do with the love between men and women, but for her, the Demon Sect is naturally her true friend.
She could feel that the Demon Sect thought she was very important, and for her, this traveler from a foreign land was also very important.
The Demon Sect nodded.
He didn't think the shepherd girl was stupid this time.
"Did you come here specifically for the iron coffin?"
The shepherd girl thought of the Middle Earth cultivator who came to Sinchu more than ten years ago. When the Demon Sect was anxious to know the appearance of the practitioner, she felt that telling the Demon Sect as much as possible might be useful to him.
"no."
The Demon Sect shook his head, "I came to the sea to chase an enemy. That person is far inferior to me, but there is a possibility that he will surpass me in the future. I found him on the sea, but there is also a powerful cultivator around him. Although I severely injured him, I don't know if he died. My true energy was too exhausted, so I was swept on your island by a storm. But that iron coffin should be related to my enemy."
He first talked with the shepherd girl and learned the language of the Sin Chew area. He was to guess the other person's meaning through his expression and gestures. So he could easily see what the shepherd girl was thinking at this time. He also felt that letting the shepherd girl know more. "In our Middle Earth Continent, there was an extremely powerful dynasty. The emperors of that dynasty were so powerful that no one could reach it in the future. It can be said that no matter how powerful the practitioners in the future are, they will never be able to surpass him. Because during the period when he ruled that dynasty, he even exhausted the rare treasures of the entire Middle Earth Continent. Many years later, his rule was finally overthrown and he was killed, but his subordinates still felt that he could rely on his martial arts and treasures to be reborn, so many of his subordinates would also be in the process of escape.
His remains and treasures were buried secretly, and many of them were arranged, perhaps out of his life. However, when the powerful dynasty was destroyed, many people had different ideas and wills, so the emperor was not resurrected in the end. Many of his arrangements were damaged, and the coffin that buried his corpse and treasures were constantly excavated. His descendants, as well as many people who obtained his skills and treasures, became the strongest practitioners in the Middle Earth Continent. Even I, at the beginning, had obtained a treasure related to him without knowing it. The enemy I was chasing can be said to be the descendant of the emperor, and the Middle Earth cultivator you mentioned should also be related to this emperor. The iron coffin he was looking for should also be one of the coffins of the emperor."
"That person is very terrible. Some of the methods of controlling objects in our temple were taught by him. He could control anything." The shepherd listened carefully, then looked at the Demon Sect and said.
The Demon Sect frowned slightly, "Direction of any things? Controlling objects is a very superficial method in the world of our practitioners. Because the combination of true energy is poor and the loss of true energy is too much, it has long been abandoned. However, if you can control all things, its true energy may be different from that of ordinary practitioners."
"The water flows, fallen flowers, and even the swimming fish in the water can easily be controlled by him like the flying sword you mentioned, and become his magic weapon for killing people." The shepherd said, "When this man first came to Sin Zhou, he killed a few practitioners who dared to offend him at will. After that, the temple was like surrendering to him. He taught some practice methods of the temple and gave several magic weapons. The skull used by the high priest was one of them, but the strongest magic weapon he gave to the temple is now in the hands of the Holy Lord. Through that magic weapon, it can be easily controlled by gold and iron objects, and it is also easy to break the envoys of many practitioners' envoys of gold and iron objects."
After saying these few words, she was afraid that the Demon Sect would not understand enough, and then explained: "The practitioner from your Middle Earth continent can control any thing, but the method he passed on to the temple, after we practice, almost everyone who can be accommodating with their own vitality when controlling things is mostly gold and iron. Therefore, the Holy Lord who possesses this magic weapon can be said to be the nemesis of all temple practitioners."
"This is a means that many powerful people will use in us. Supporting a puppet, but it saves the trouble of being overthrown by others and supporting the puppet. Therefore, they will generally give him a unique means. For this puppet, it can satisfy his vanity and make him feel that he is the real master of this place." The Demon Sect looked at her and said, "It can only destroy and control the combination of the true essence of the practitioner and the metal and iron thing. Even if it is in our place, this magic weapon is definitely not an ordinary thing. To date, most of the magic weapons in our practitioner world are made of metal and iron things."
"I have seen that magic weapon, it is just a decorative buckle. In the Middle Earth, it is the decorative buckle used by some people to tie their clothes when they are dressed." The shepherd stretched out his hands and carefully gestured to the Demon Sect the appearance of the magic weapon. "After this thing was given to the Holy Lord, he hung him on his chest as a pendant."
Seeing her careful gesture, the Demon Sect easily imagined the specific appearance of the thing. He couldn't help but smile and said, "This is indeed the buckle used by men in Middle-earth to tighten the belt. However, with such powerful characteristics, I'm afraid this thing can only come from the dynasty I mentioned. Even if this thing was not used by the invincible emperor at that time, it was also used by his patrol kings."
Looking at his smile, the shepherd girl completely relieved her heart and said, "Looking at your appearance, you don't think this magic weapon is powerful, so even the cultivator who came to our Sin Chew back then wouldn't be your opponent?"
"No, among all my enemies, there is no one more important than the young man I was chasing you." The Demon Sect thought for a while and said calmly: "I have also thought carefully before that young man and the monk who accompanied him, I think that the monk was going to wait for the young man to grow strong enough on the sea. But as far as I know now, I suspect that the monk was taking the young man to circulate on the sea, which may also have something to do with this iron coffin. As for the person you are talking about, he may be related to the monk, and perhaps he wanted to secretly find this iron coffin before the monk and the young man."
The shepherd girl was really not stupid, she thought for a while and said, "So you suspect that this man is like the monk and the others, and is also a descendant of the emperor you mentioned. Maybe he should surrender to the young man, but he had something else to think about and wanted to secretly find this iron coffin."
The Demon Sect nodded and said, "The stronger the person, the less he wants to live under someone else's roof, let alone the fruit he has worked hard to pick but has to hand it to others. Many people will not be willing to surrender for the so-called mission. Many people will be loyal enough to obtain the skills to make themselves powerful. In my opinion, this is probably why this emperor has not been resurrected and his descendants have never been able to conquer the world."
The shepherd girl became more and more curious, "Do you know what's in that iron coffin?"
"I don't know, but I think it might be very useful even for me."
The Demon Sect looked at her and smiled with emotion, and said softly: "There are great things... In my life, there have been several times when I have been close to real death, but after I have been through the difficulties, I can often get benefits, and I hope this time is no exception."
The shepherd girl sincerely said: "Good people will have good luck, maybe you are the real person favored by God."
For the Demon Sect, this sentence is more like a sincere blessing.
As for good people or bad people, he doesn't want to discuss this issue with her.
...
For the black-clothed priests and shipmen on this ship, the voyage was particularly long.
Fortunately, the voyage finally approached its destination.
Dozens of small boats had already been moored on the seemingly calm sea. Seeing the boat coming, waves of warning sounds sounded on these small boats in an instant, and soon a small boat approached quickly, indicating that the big boat should not continue moving forward.
These black-clothed priests were very nervous. They were afraid that the Demon Sect would be unhappy and they would instantly turn into corpses like the high priest, but the Demon Sect knew the reason earlier than them.
In his perception, the sea seemed very calm, but only a few feet below the water, there were reefs full of intertwined. With the draught of a large ship, it was impossible to pass through these reefs.
But compared to these reefs, what is even more terrifying is the torrent under the reefs.
At this time, he could easily sense that the undercurrents under the reefs were very fast and powerful.
"You guys come with me."
He didn't like to talk too much about these black-clothed priests. He just said this, and the figures of him and the shepherd's woman had disappeared from the big ship.
The person on the boat that came to pick him up had not yet reacted, but felt that there were already two more people on the boat.
These black-clothed priests saw that the Demon Sect had already gone first, and they all started to sing eagerly, waiting for the rest of the boats to be heard by them, and they also jumped down from the big boats, and shouted the boats to follow the Demon Sect in front of them.
No one dares to talk nonsense.
The boat passed through these reefs and stopped.
"You can't go forward any further. If you walk forward any further, the entire boat will be swallowed up." A black-clothed priest from the temple who had arrived here before said in a trembling voice.
Before the arrival of the ship, the black-clothed priest on the ship had also been sent over. All the people in the temple here knew what a terrible existence the Demon Sect was.
"The place looks like a small vortex, but it is actually a big vortex underground, and the attraction is very strange. And if there are some iron objects on it, it is easy to be directly sucked down."
The priest in black continued to say.
Before his words rang, the Demon Sect's eyes had already stopped on the vortex he mentioned.
Just on the sea dozens of feet away from his small boat, there was a very small whirlpool.
This vortex is like a small vortex stirring by some children in a wooden basin with their hands.
But as the black-clothed priest said, this small vortex was like the spire of a huge pagoda.
In the perception of the Demon Sect, a large vortex had long appeared.
This vortex is formed by countless undercurrents flowing from the reefs, like a real mountain constantly rotating in the sea.
What's even more amazing is that in the center of this vortex, there are two spire towers that are at least a hundred feet tall.
The two spires are squarely conical. The two spires are arranged side by side and not connected, about twenty feet away. However, the Demon Sect can sense that a unique magnetic force and a pillar that seems to be driven by this magnetic force are constantly generated in the vortex, and then they continue to rush into the position where one of the spires is close to the bottom, then rush out from the bottom of the spire, rush into another spire, and then disappear.
"Don't come here."
"Wait for me here."
He just paused for several breaths and said these two sentences.
The first sentence is what the priests in black are said, and the second sentence is what the shepherd girl said.
He did not say more, because he knew that the priests in black would be more awe of him and would take care of the shepherd's daughter better.
After saying these two sentences, he left the boat and walked forward.
In front of him was the sea, and there was a whirlpool not far away.
But his feet fell on the sea, but only slight ripples appeared.
Everyone's eyes widened.
The Demon Sect was walking on the sea, and faint ripples were left behind him.
He walked to the small vortex before stopping.
