"I'm a gatekeeper." The bark-faced old man coughed a few times before stretching his body a little.
Gatekeeper? Ning Cheng retreated a little before staring at the curled up old man cautiously. He could see that this old man had a strong cultivation and was no weaker than Liu Fangzhen. He should have been imprisoned by a restriction. Even so, it would be easy for the other party to kill him.
Seeing Ning Cheng retreat cautiously, the bark-faced old man said, "I'm responsible for guarding these 81 blood pillars. Once someone tries to touch these 81 blood pillars, I can kill him immediately. Don't look at me here. I can go to the blood pillar that nailed Mu Ge at any time. "
Hearing this, Ning Cheng broke out in cold sweat and gripped the Escape Talisman even tighter. The blood pillar that nailed Mu Ge was the first one. Since this old man said so, it meant that he could go to any of the blood pillars at any time.
He didn't feel anyone here from the beginning to the end. What would happen if this person attacked him while he was rescuing the girls on the blood pillars?
But then again, he didn't feel any threat of death, which meant that this old man didn't want to attack him.
"Put away your Escape Talisman. If I wanted to attack you, I wouldn't have waited until now. Don't be surprised. I was the one who asked to be imprisoned here to guard the 81 blood pillars for 100,000 years. The condition they gave me was 30 high-grade God Spirit Veins and 10 Extreme Darkness Dao Fruits. "The bark-faced old man spoke with a self-deprecating tone.
Ning Cheng stared at the bark-faced old man in disbelief. 30 high-grade God Spirit Veins and 10 Extreme Darkness Dao Fruits could make a Primordial Chaos powerhouse guard it for 100,000 years. Ning Cheng couldn't believe it.
These things were very precious, especially the Extreme Darkness Dao Fruit. It was a Primordial Chaos Dao Fruit, a top-grade Dao Fruit that could help one comprehend the Darkness Spirit Technique. But these things couldn't be exchanged for a Primordial Chaos powerhouse guarding this place for 100,000 years. What's more, this old man was imprisoned to guard it, unless this old man was stupid at the time.
"Do you think I'm stupid?" The bark-faced old man asked calmly.
"I wouldn't dare." Ning Cheng cupped his fists and said, "Senior must have your own thoughts, which is why you chose to stay here."
The old man nodded, "That's right, I do have my own thoughts, and everyone knows them. This was because everyone knew that I cultivated the Tai Yi Holy Fiend Art. The Tai Yi Holy Fiend Art was best for devouring demonic creatures in the underground abyss. That's why I requested to come to the underground abyss to watch over the 83 blood pillars. They all thought that I was taking advantage of them, so they proposed to imprison me. "
So it was like this, Ning Cheng finally understood. He didn't know what the Taiyi Holy Demon Technique was, but he knew that there was nothing wrong with cultivating demonic techniques in a place with demonic beings.
"My Tai Change Holy Devil Art was snatched from a forbidden land in the Tai Change Realm. Most people know that, so no one is surprised that I requested to guard the blood pillar here."
Ning Cheng remained silent, he did not know what this old man wanted to do. No matter what the old man wanted to do, he would not relax. Once the old man made a move, he would grab Qianqian and escape.
"My name is Xiang Dingtian. Although I obtained the Tai Yi Holy Devil Art, I do not cultivate a demonic technique. In fact, I have never cultivated a demonic technique. I came here for only one purpose, for my great-granddaughter, Xiang Daie. "When the old man spoke until here, his tone was filled with resentment and anger.
Ning Cheng's heart moved, and he quickly asked, "Is your granddaughter Xiang Daie also nailed here and used as a pure body to suppress her? But among the 81 people I saved, there is no one named Xiang Daie. "
Ning Cheng had saved 81 people before, and all of them chose to reincarnate without exception. Before these people reincarnated, they all thanked Ning Cheng and said their names. Ning Cheng had never heard of Xiang Daie.
"There are two blood pillars here, but you didn't find them …."
As the old man spoke until here, two lines of turbid tears flowed down his face, "I came here just to save my great-granddaughter Xiang Daie, but after I was imprisoned, I could only wander around the blood pillars. I can't even get close to the blood pillars, nor can I touch the restrictions of the blood pillars, let alone talk about saving Daie. I have cultivated for millions of years, and my name is Xiang Dingtian, and I swear to be a man who can reach the heavens. But now I can't even save my great-granddaughter, how can I reach the heavens? "
Ning Cheng bowed and cupped his fists, "I ask Senior Xiang to point out the location of the last two blood pillars."
Since there were two blood pillars, one of them was Xiang Daie, and the other must be Xi 'er.
"Senior, please guide me." Qianqian knelt on the ground.
The old man directly threw an Array Flag to Ning Cheng, "This is an Array Flag to break the concealment around you. You can drop it three feet behind the 81st blood pillar."
Ning Cheng put away the Array Flag, cupped his hands in thanks, and immediately went to the 81st blood pillar and dropped the Array Flag three feet behind it.
After dropping the Array Flag, the surrounding thick black mist instantly dissipated, and two more blood pillars appeared in the distance from the black mist. However, the black mist around the blood pillars, as well as the black vortexes around the blood pillars, were even denser.
Ning Cheng quickly moved over, and saw a skinny girl on the left, with a black vortex hovering over her head. A thick black nail was nailed into her glabella, and only a small part of the nail could be seen. Around her waist, there was a thick iron chain that penetrated into her bones, and only half of it could be seen. Ning Cheng understood at a glance that this was because she had been nailed to the blood pillars for a longer time compared to the 81 girls outside.
The girl on the right was also skinny, and the black vortex above her head was even denser than the one on the left. Black blood dripped from her body, mixed with the whimpers of the surrounding demonic creatures. It was a tragic sight to behold.
"Big Sister Xi 'er …." Qianqian burst into tears and rushed towards the girl on the left.
Ning Cheng quickly pulled Qianqian back, "Do you want to die?"
The reason why he could appear here safely was not because of his high cultivation, but because his spirit techniques restrained these demonic creatures.
Qianqian reacted and looked at Ning Cheng pleadingly.
Without waiting for Qianqian to speak, Ning Cheng had already arrived beside Xi 'er and threw out dozens of Array Flags. The demonic creatures around Xi 'er were immediately alarmed. These demonic creatures immediately rushed towards Ning Cheng, but all of them were swept away by Ning Cheng's Bridge of Coping and Looking Home Bridge.
After an incense stick worth of time, the black nail between Xi 'er's eyebrows spilled out and fell to the ground along with a mist of blood. Ning Cheng also removed the restriction on the iron chain around her waist and let it slide down from the blood pillar. Xi 'er was also paralyzed. Unlike the 81 girls Ning Cheng had rescued before, Xi' er fell to the ground with little vitality. Only a wisp of her aura was still fluctuating.
Ning Cheng took out two jade bottles and handed them to Qianqian. "Give Xi 'er some healing pills. I'll go save Xiang Daie."
After another incense stick worth of time, Ning Cheng also rescued Xiang Daie. She was the same as Xi 'er. She couldn't speak, let alone dispel Samsara.
Ning Cheng took out several medicinal pills and put them into Xiang Daie's mouth. He then used several Dirt Removal Techniques on her before taking out a robe and wrapping it around Xiang Daie. Only then did he bring Xiang Daie to Qianqian. "Qianqian, take care of them. We'll talk about it after they wake up."
Xi 'er and Xiang Daie were both nailed here and used their bodies to suppress the filthy demonic creatures underground. No one had deliberately killed them. Plus, Ning Cheng's medicinal pills were top-grade Dao Pills, so the two quickly woke up.
"You're Qianqian. Why are you here?" Xi 'er was shocked when she opened her eyes and saw Qianqian.
Qianqian didn't answer Xi 'er's question. Instead, she cried out, "Big Sister Xi' er, why were you brought here to be suppressed? Why? "
"Big Sister, did you save me?" Xiang Daie also woke up. She didn't notice Ning Cheng in the distance and asked Qianqian weakly.
Qianqian shook her head, "It wasn't me. I brought Big Brother Ning Cheng to save you."
"Who is Big Brother Ning Cheng?" Xi 'er and Xiang Daie asked almost at the same time.
"Big Brother Ning Cheng is Big Brother Pan Qian's friend. He's over there …." Qianqian held back the tears in her eyes and pointed to Ning Cheng, who was still harvesting demonic creatures in the distance.
Ning Cheng nodded to Xi 'er and Xiang Daie but didn't come over. With Qianqian around, Xi' er probably wouldn't continue to choose to disintegrate reincarnation. Since Xiang Daie's great-grandfather came, Qianqian would probably tell her that even if she chose to reincarnate, she would at least meet her great-grandfather.
At this moment, Ning Cheng not only brought out the First Bridge of Coping, the Second Bridge of Looking Home, the Third Bridge of Forgetting River, but he also brought out the Fourth Bridge of Yellow Springs.
"Pan Qian? Didn't he leave the Great Change Realm? "Xi 'er asked in surprise.
Qianqian cried out, "Big Brother Pan Qian's eyes and heart were dug out, and his arms were cut off and nailed to the void. If it weren't for Big Brother Ning, I'm afraid Big Brother Pan Qian would never have come back. "
Xi 'er trembled when she heard this. Why was this world so dark? Even an honest person like Pan Qian couldn't be spared? Why was that?
"He's a very strong person." Xiang Daie looked at the Bridge of Coping that protected this area and the rolling Yellow River above Ning Cheng's head and muttered to herself.
Qianqian quickly spoke up, "Yes, if it weren't for Big Brother Ning's Seven Bridges, Big Brother Ning and I wouldn't have been able to get out of here. By the way, Big Sister Daie, your great-grandfather Xiang Dingtian is here. He always wanted to save you, but he was imprisoned and couldn't get close to the blood pillar. "
"Great Grandfather?" Xiang Daie froze for a moment, then remembered something and trembled with excitement.
… …
Another half an hour passed, and Xi 'er and Xiang Daie, who could now move on their own, had already washed up and changed their clothes. They then walked towards Xiang Dingtian with Qianqian's help.
However, the black gas permeated by the filthy demonic creatures still lingered above their heads. It couldn't be removed at all.
"Great Grandfather …." Xiang Daie sobbed and knelt in front of Xiang Dingtian.
Xiang Dingtian's body, which was curled up in the middle of the stones, trembled even more. The Xiang Clan had almost gone extinct. If not for the young man with the Seven Bridges Spirit Technique, he and Xiang Daie would have died in this endless underground abyss.
