Chapter 405: Gift of Ten Thousand Year Water Crystal

Immortal Concubine Jing Yu spoke while directing the view.

The field of vision of everyone quickly expanded, approaching the Peerless Demon Nest, and saw a large number of avatars fighting demon beasts on the periphery of the demon nest.

All sorts of monstrous beasts, strangely shaped, poured out of the demon nest continuously, attempting to break through the seal and return to the human world to wreak havoc, but they were all blocked by the countless avatars of ancient sages on the periphery.

"It's Senior Brother!" Lin Shan Shan exclaimed.

Everyone also saw Ling Hu Jiu.

At this time, Ling Hu Jiu could only fight with all his might at the outermost edge, engaging the small demon beasts intentionally left behind by the front line.

Although he only had Foundation Establishment cultivation, he possessed Golden Core combat power.

In front of the Peerless Demon Nest, he could only be considered a small fry, only able to deal with the lowest level of demon beast scum.

Wood, Water, and Wind elemental spells were unleashed in turns in his hands, yet the situation remained quite perilous.

Only by using the Solitary Sword Scripture could he turn the tide.

After watching for a while, Ning Zhuo also saw Ling Hu Jiu's fatigue.

"Brother Ling Hu's Solitary Sword Scripture cannot be used frequently or continuously."

Previously, when he sparred with Ling Hu Jiu's projection, the latter also only used the Solitary Sword Scripture at the end, using it as a final burst of power.

"Judging from this, the Solitary Sword Scripture and the Bitter Cold Scripture have similar effects. They both need to borrow some genuine emotion from the Sea of Consciousness to possess unique power."

Han Zhou, who cultivated the Bitter Cold Scripture, was like this. He had to suffer, seek suffering, make himself hungry, cold, and barely clothed to continuously generate the bitter intent in the Sea of Consciousness and the upper Dantian. With the加持 of this bitter intent, the various methods of the Bitter Cold Scripture could possess extraordinary power, and the Suffering Body could cultivate stronger and stronger.

"Since Brother Ling Hu's Solitary Sword Scripture is named Solitary, and the various sword techniques are filled with a desolate and lonely artistic conception, it is likely the same."

Ling Hu Jiu had clearly been fighting for a long time, his spirit and body were weak, and finally, he seized a flaw in the enemy, unleashed the Solitary Sword Technique, and beheaded the demon beast.

Everyone watched the latter half of Ling Hu Jiu's bitter battle and were somewhat speechless.

Ling Hu Jiu's combat power was enough to be amazing, but here, he was just a minor player.

The person who was truly deeply moved was Ning Jiu Fan.

This Golden Core ancestor of the Ning family felt bitter in his heart, realizing that if he were in Ling Hu Jiu's place, he would probably be just as difficult and embarrassed.

"We of the Golden Core level are as insignificant as ants in front of the Peerless Demon Nest. The Golden Core in our bodies, and the muscles in our bodies, are not even enough to fill the teeth of these fierce and evil demon beasts."

Ning Zhuo suddenly thought of something, and with a feeling in his heart, he bowed to Immortal Concubine Jing Yu and thanked her:

"Since the era of Emperor Wu, Senior Immortal Concubine and all the ancient sages have guarded this place, resisted demons and suppressed evil, for countless years. Today, our human race is able to dominate the world, all thanks to the great achievements of the seniors!"

"However, the Mirrored Screen of Fine Jade is hidden in the underground溶洞, obscured by layers of historical fog, and has not seen the light of day. The glorious achievements of the ancient sages are largely unknown to the world. Only now do we understand that the happiness and peace of the past were due to the silent and selfless dedication of all the ancient sages in the dark."

"The array we first entered is called the Dripping Jade Clepsydra Array. As the saying goes, 'The Golden Gate has not been opened, the jade clepsydra still drips, uncovering the cover and getting off the chariot, and resting there.' The Peerless Demon Nest has not been completely eradicated, only suppressed and sealed. This night has continued uninterrupted since the Bloody Slaughter Dynasty, without respite. Only the ancient sages have guarded this night, not allowing the night to descend upon the world again and harm all living beings. The merits of all the ancient sages will shine forever!"

Ning Zhuo spoke the thoughts in everyone's hearts, and the others also looked solemn and expressed their agreement.

The suppression of the Peerless Demon Nest, which began in the era of Emperor Wu, has continued to this day. How many years have passed?

These avatars in the Mirrored Screen of Fine Jade have never been lazy, tightly suppressing the demon beast disaster and preventing it from overflowing. This is a great achievement for all races in the present world!

The jade clepsydra still drips, and the night has not passed. It is only because these people have been constantly fighting for tens of thousands of years that the world is bright.

Immortal Concubine Jing Yu looked at Ning Zhuo, who was bowing, and smiled slightly: "Little friend Ning Zhuo, please rise. The waves of the river behind are continuous. To be recognized by you, we seniors have done something to account for the younger generations."

An avatar suddenly appeared: "Hahaha, I heard what you just said. With this recognition, I feel that being trapped here, even for endless years, is worth it!"

The person who spoke with a laugh was wearing a gray robe, with a pale face, fangs, and blue eyes. He was actually a zombie. His appearance was terrifying, but his demeanor was grand, and his eyes were clear and calm.

Sun Ling Tong exclaimed, "This, isn't this Lord Sima Zhong?"

Ning Zhuo immediately felt a sense of reverence and bowed to the newcomer.

Sima Zhong was a renowned historian of this world, whose name would be remembered for thousands of years. In the past, he was a historian who recorded the words and deeds of the monarch. Because he was just and fair, and recorded truthfully, he was secretly harmed by the monarch and imprisoned, losing his freedom.

In order to restore historical truth, Sima Zhong did not hesitate to destroy himself, cultivating into a zombie with a living body to obtain a long life. Throughout his life, his writing style was sharp, he upheld justice, explored historical relics, and restored the original truth, earning the respect of later generations for ten thousand years.

He did not expect that Sima Zhong had also left a segment of his image in the Mirrored Screen of Fine Jade.

Sima Zhong, with blue eyes and fangs, looked up and down at Ning Zhuo, and his first impression of this big-headed youth was quite good: "What a good talent and fine jade. Every generation has its talented people. Seeing you excellent younger generations, I feel happy."

He swept his gaze over Ning Zhuo's waist, then looked at Zhu Xuan Ji, and laughed heartily again: "Good, good, good."

"You three, along with Ling Hu Jiu, each take out a piece of ten-thousand-year water essence before leaving this place."

Ning Zhuo thanked him again.

Zhu Xuan Ji also bowed and thanked him.

Ten-thousand-year water essence is a cultivation resource of the Nascent Soul level. Even Zhu Xuan Ji, who is a member of the royal family, was surprised and delighted to suddenly obtain such a treasure. Sun Ling Tong stroked his head in the Ten Thousand Miles Traveling Dragon and giggled, thinking, "They give gifts as soon as they meet. They are indeed good seniors!"

He was quite familiar with Sima Zhong because his master, when he was alive, had told him to carefully study Sima Zhong's works.

Sima Zhong had profound experience in opening the tombs of ancestors and excavating historical artifacts.

When Sun Ling Tong traveled with his master, he often used the knowledge from Sima Zhong's works to increase his wealth.

The Five Elements Divine Lord also condensed his form at this time: "Besides the ten-thousand-year water essence, if you still want other materials, you have to do it yourself."

"These endlessly emerging demon beasts are all treasure houses."

"You can certainly rely on your own abilities to kill demons and obtain treasures!"

"Or, you can leave your avatars and let the avatars eliminate the demons. We will store the spoils for you, and as long as you are alive, when you return here, you can claim 80% of them."

Ning Zhuo chuckled: "Senior Five Elements Divine Lord, seeing Lord Sima Zhong like this, can't you give me something?"

The Five Elements Divine Lord glared: "You brat, I've already passed on my Five Organs Temple Spirit Divine Art to you, no, you stole it."

"My Five Elements realm has also been spied on by you for a long time, and you have learned countless things."

"You still want my spoils?"

"Too thick-skinned!"

Sima Zhong heard these words and immediately turned his curious gaze to Ning Zhuo: "Is this the successor of Senior Five Elements Divine Lord from another generation? Congratulations, Senior."

The Five Elements Divine Lord quickly waved his hand: "No, he is not my disciple. He stole it, stole it!"

Immortal Concubine Jing Yu smiled faintly: "In the past, the Divine Lord nourished the five spirits in his body, dominated the principles of the five elements of heaven and earth, and became the five elements divine being. Replacing heaven with a human, this act angered heaven, and his luck declined to the extreme, and his later years were inauspicious."

The Five Elements Divine Lord laughed and cursed: "Damn it, actually my main body hadn't even reached its later years when it sacrificed itself."

Ning Zhuo immediately understood that Immortal Concubine Jing Yu was using the Five Elements Divine Lord as an example to warn him not to imitate the Five Elements Divine Lord's actions in the past, raising the five zang spirits to occupy the position of heavenly gods and provoke heavenly wrath.

Ning Zhuo immediately cupped his hands and bowed, expressing that he had been taught and would definitely keep this in mind!

Immortal Concubine Jing Yu nodded slowly and spoke again: "When the Mirrored Screen of Fine Jade was first created, it was just a spirit treasure. Countless years have passed, and it has now reached the level of a quasi-immortal treasure."

"This is all because the avatars have eliminated these demon beasts, refined their demon materials, and merged them into the wall stones, constantly deepening the foundation of this spirit treasure. Over time, its rank has been forcefully pushed up with the most profound foundation."

"We are all avatars and are constrained by the spirit treasure itself. Therefore, we can only comply with the distribution of spoils from slaying demons."

"As for our inheritances and the ten-thousand-year water essence in the溶洞 outside the wall, they are items outside the rules, so they can be given as we please."

Speaking of this, the immortal concubine paused and turned her gaze to Zhu Xuan Ji: "I know your identities and backgrounds. Many avatars in the wall are also skilled in divination."

"The world has been peaceful for a long time, and in a few hundred years, there will be a great catastrophe, ushering in an era of great contention."

"This great era will be at least an Imperial Dynasty, and possibly the fourth Royal Dynasty in history!"

"An Imperial Dynasty is one thing, but whenever there is a Royal Dynasty, the Mirrored Screen of Fine Jade will seal itself and sink deep into the earth's core, avoiding the world and not emerging."

"Before this, the Mirrored Screen of Fine Jade must actively absorb the images of talented people from later generations in the limited time of a few hundred years, in order to cope with the counterattack of the Peerless Demon Nest."

The Peerless Demon Nest originates from outside of heaven, is immortal and indestructible, and endless demon beasts will constantly evolve along with the external environment.

Therefore, an unchanging array cannot suppress the demon nest, because the demon beasts are likely to evolve into life forms that adapt to the array and can drill out holes in the array.

The Mirrored Screen of Fine Jade managing the nest with people is a creation, and also a forced measure.

Similarly, the Peerless Demon Nest is still constantly evolving and adapting to these avatars.

Although the methods used by powerful individuals like the Five Elements Divine Lord are still effective, their effectiveness is no longer comparable to before.

Therefore, the Mirrored Screen of Fine Jade needs to constantly absorb later generations of strong individuals and create their avatars to maintain pressure on the Peerless Demon Nest.

This is why Immortal Concubine Jing Yu and others value excellent younger generations like Ning Zhuo and Ling Hu Jiu.

Ning Zhuo felt puzzled and asked, "I don't understand, aren't the talented and virtuous individuals who emerge during each Royal Dynasty able to better help the Mirrored Screen of Fine Jade suppress the Peerless Demon Nest?"

"Why does the Mirrored Screen of Fine Jade avoid the world every time there is a Royal Dynasty?"
