Although Li Mo was conversing with the person in front of him, he was preparing to escape. When he heard the Crystal Jade Giant's unfriendly tone, he immediately waved his sleeve. Balls of dark blue Yin Flame flew out from his sleeve, flying towards the Crystal Jade Giants and Cultivator Ding.
At the same time, he leaned back, revealing an enormous pitch-black silhouette behind him. It had no facial features, but was of the same color. It stretched out its arms as if to embrace him.
This was his visualization diagram, the "Canal Man". He could conceal himself within it and merge with it. Afterwards, he would be able to change his form at will. He would be able to enter and exit places of water and fire without any hindrance, and for a short period of time, he wouldn't have to fear any external forces.
The only drawback was that it consumed too much of his mental strength. If he immersed himself in his visualization diagram for too long, it was possible that he would merge with it and become a monster of chaos.
However, he believed that with his own mental strength, it should be enough to charge out of this place. Moreover, once he reached the wastelands, he knew of an underground passage that only he knew of. Relying on this, he still had a chance of escaping from this place.
But at that moment, a strange sound suddenly drilled into his mind. He felt a wave of dizziness, and his movements became sluggish.
Although it was only for an instant, the situation had changed. He had missed the best opportunity to escape. The Crystal Jade Giants formed groups of two. One of them waved his hand, and a barrier of light immediately appeared around him, blocking the dark blue Yin Flame. As for the other Crystal Jade Giants, they skillfully shot a beam of golden light at Li Mo.
Beams of golden light came from all directions, all of them landing on Li Mo's body. The beams of light were like iron chains, filled with the power to bind him, making it impossible for him to move.
He wanted to use his mental strength to break free, but every time he tried, the formless sound that had disturbed him in the beginning would immediately appear in his mind, making it impossible for him to concentrate.
The slender Crystal Jade Giant said, "Don't struggle. We've long since thoroughly studied the methods of you cultivators."
Cultivator Ding looked at Li Mo, who seemed to be trapped in a spider web, with a complicated expression.
He had seen similar scenes many times in the past. The Crystal Jade Giants had captured all of the cultivators within the encampment. He had originally believed that Li Mo, who was relatively powerful, would be an exception, but the result was the same.
At this moment, he couldn't tell whether he was rejoicing or disappointed.
The Crystal Jade Giant walked over with light steps and said, "Mr. Li, I'll ask you one last time. Are you willing to cooperate with us?"
Only now did Li Mo understand why he hadn't found any signs of damage when he entered the base. It turned out that there were such things around. However, he didn't say anything. He maintained his silence.
The Crystal Jade Giant didn't try to persuade Li Mo any further. She nodded, and another giant walked forward with a glass jade box. Inside the box was a crystal-like liquid that looked like a living creature. He opened the box and poured the liquid out at Li Mo's feet.
The ball of liquid seemed to have found its prey as it clung to Li Mo's feet. Then, it spread all the way up and quickly wrapped around his entire body. In the end, the ball of liquid gradually solidified and only a blurry figure could be seen inside.
The Crystal Jade Giant said, "We will soon turn him into one of us."
The cultivator surnamed Ding said, "Li Mo's temperament has always been very firm"
The Crystal Jade Giant said, "He will submit. After suppressing his heartforce, he won't be able to die even if he wants to in there. I've never seen anyone who can endure in there for so long."
She looked at the cultivator surnamed Ding. "However, we welcome people like Mr. Ding who take the initiative to cooperate with us."
The cultivator surnamed Ding was expressionless. He knew very well that the other party wouldn't use this method on him because people who were forced to change their temperament would often become abnormal when they came out. And the damage to their intelligence would lead to a decrease in their combat strength.
He said, "When are we going to the 'World Gap'?"
The Crystal Jade Giant raised her hand, and two of her subordinates moved the crystal pillar away. She said, "Don't worry. I've already sent people in to investigate. There should be many EsGods hiding inside. With our current strength, we can't win. I've already sent a message to the Frost Continent. More people will be sent to support us soon."
The cultivator surnamed Ding said, "Li Mo went out these days. It's very likely that he went to the continent to seek help from outsiders. Yingxiong went out with Li Mo, but he didn't come back. I'm worried that he will bring people to hinder us when the time comes."
The Crystal Jade Giant said, "You don't have to worry about this. Other than the army of the Green Sun Continent, no one can threaten us now. Even the Green Sun Army wouldn't mobilize a large army for an unconfirmed piece of news. In a battle between small teams, we don't fear anyone. Besides, don't we have cultivators like Mr. Ding to help us? We have nothing to fear. "
The cultivator surnamed Ding was silent for a while before saying, "After this is done, don't forget your promise."
The Crystal Jade Giant said naturally, "Of course, those things are useless to us. If we can use them to win over allies like Mr. Ding, we are very willing to see them."
At this moment, in an underground cave somewhere in the Waste Realm, Qi Yu looked at the smooth walls of the cave and the inlaid pearls and jade lamps. He said in surprise, "Is this a place that Daoist Wan Ming has prepared long ago? It doesn't feel like it can be built overnight. "
The Daoist smiled and said, "Even a cunning rabbit has three burrows. I've been in the Extraterritorial Realm for so long. Naturally, I've managed more than one world for shelter."
Qi Yu looked at him. This person was indeed thoughtful. He had obviously made arrangements long ago, but he didn't reveal anything before this.
However, not only did Qi Yu not feel unhappy, but he also felt that the Daoist Wan Ming did the right thing. This was because only such a person could complete the plan that he mentioned.
He said, "Daoist Wan Ming, when do you plan to take action there?"
Just when the Daoist Wan Ming was about to say something, someone outside said, "Mister, Jia Yi is back." He nodded and said, "Let him in."
Qi Yu was about to leave but was stopped by the Daoist Wan Ming. The Daoist Wan Ming said, "Daoist Wan Ming, don't leave. There's something that you need to know."
After a while, a disciple came in from outside. He cupped his hands at the Daoist Wan Ming and said, "Greetings, Mister."
The Daoist Wan Ming asked, "What's the matter?"
The disciple said, "Three days ago, we discovered several armored soldiers entering and exiting the 'gap'. After these people left, no one else entered this place. Hence, I hurried back to report to you." He took out a scroll from his sleeve. "This is a picture rubbing of those people."
Qi Yu was shocked. "Armored soldiers? Could they be from the two prefectures? "
The Daoist Wan Ming said, "Armored soldiers may not only be found in the continents." He took the picture rubbing and saw a giant wearing a crystal jade armor. His eyes narrowed slightly. "So it's these people. I didn't expect them to also discover this place."
Qi Yu relaxed slightly when he heard that they were not from the two prefectures. He asked, "Where did these people come from?"
The Daoist Wan Ming replied indifferently, "These people are from the Shuang Continent. 'Shuang' means' Shuang ', which implies that the Lone Continent and the Mi Continent are just some evil creatures that deserve to die but haven't died yet."
Qi Yu frowned and said, "They should have also discovered this' gap '. If they also intend to get their hands on this place, I'm afraid they'll bring us trouble."
A bright light lit up in the Daoist Wan Ming's hand and the picture rubbing turned into nothingness. He said coldly, "It's just a little effort to clean up."
Zhang Yu read the file in detail and felt that it was just as Li Mo had said. The Shuang Continent was very likely to be one of the two lost continents of the Qingyang Upper Continent. The statement in the file was also similar to what Elder Lu had told him.
These two continents were originally military towns. Later, as the population increased and the external threats decreased, they were promoted to prefectures. However, because these two continents were far away from the Qingyang Upper Continent and belonged to the Yujing Upper Continent, the Qingyang Upper Continent rarely asked about the internal situation of these two continents.
Before the Turbid Tide arrived, the distance between the continents of the Tianxia Upper Continent was not as far as it was now. Therefore, if nothing unexpected happened, these two continents would become the Middle Continent or the Lower Continent that connected all the Upper Continents.
However, all of this was interrupted with the appearance of the parasites and nightmares. Because there was no way to deal with these things at first, it was difficult to control them after they were discovered. Most of the people in these continents could no longer be considered as humans, but had become another kind of creature that was neither human nor monster.
In order to avoid greater losses, the higher-ups of the Qingyang Upper Continent could only choose to block the path and report this matter to the Yujing and Xuanting.
Originally, if there were no other disturbances, this matter could be solved. However, the Turbid Tide appeared and various enemies invaded, causing the Qingyang Upper Continent to be unable to take care of itself for a while.
After the Turbid Tide, due to the expansion of the world, there were no traces of these two continents.
However, there were additional records at the bottom of the dossier. These were reports from several encounters with an unknown force, including the incident where he encountered the Crystal Jade Giant in the garrison town.
In fact, the military had long suspected that it was the survivors of these two continents, but there was no conclusive evidence to prove it.
He remembered that Tao Dingfu had told him before that the two prefectures were inviting True Cultivators of the Mysterious Spirit Realm to investigate a place suspected to be the two continents. It seemed that this matter was still in progress, and there was no result yet.
He also noticed that although these two continents had long been separated from the Qingyang Upper Continent, because they were originally under the jurisdiction of the Yujing Upper Continent, not only were there many powerful cultivators, but there were also several great craftsmen of the Tianji Department stationed there.
From the crystal jade giant he had fought last time, not only were these people's strength not inferior to the armored soldiers of the two prefectures, but they were even superior in some aspects. If he really encountered them this time, he would have to treat them with caution.
He looked at the file for a moment, then reached out and brushed it. The words on the top immediately disappeared, and then turned into ashes. Following a breeze, the ashes fell into the ashtray beside him.
