Chapter 1118: Return to Middle Sky Continent
Liu Ming suddenly let out a sigh of relief, knowing that Xie’er had condensed a real pellet. He immediately flew over.
“Master, I… I’ve finally condensed the real pellet!” Xie’er turned to look at Liu Ming with a slightly flushed and happy face.
“Your cultivation is still unstable, so consolidate it for a while.” Liu Ming was also very happy when he heard the words, but he did not forget to instruct her.
Xie’er hummed softly, turned into a black light and returned into the soul-recovering bag on Liu Ming’s waist.
Liu Ming squinted and looked at the h.e.l.l river water under his feet with a hint of contemplation.
After a long while, he flew away in a black escape light.
…
One day, on an open plain west of the Serene Water Region, there was a majestic giant peak that peak plunged straight into the clouds.
Thie was the famous peak, h.e.l.l Yue Mountain, in the h.e.l.l Water Region.
At this moment, a young man in green clothes was standing above the cloud sea.
The young man was naturally Liu Ming.
From time to time, flying yin beasts would appear in the nearby mountains.
When a few of them were just about to approach the peak where Liu Ming was, they seemed to had discovered some terrifying existence and avoided far away.
Liu Ming wasn’t bothered by them.
Speaking of which, after he came to the deepest underworld by chance, he not only refined the 12 Mountain River Pearls, but he also condensed a lot of h.e.l.l river heavy water, which could greatly empower the h.e.l.l Prison. He, Fei’er and Xie’ er had also succeeded in condensing the real pellet successively. He also got the second part of the h.e.l.l Bone Secret.
Not long ago, he also discovered that the Sword Maru in the void attribute sword pouch also seemed to be buzzing as if the nurture was about to complete.
This trip to the deepest underworld could be regarded as a bountiful blessing. When he returned to the Taiqing Sect, many people would be surprised.
When Liu Ming thought of this, he couldn’t help but feel a little ups and downs in his mind.
At this moment, a somewhat familiar cold voice sounded behind him.
“It seems that your homesickness is quite eager. There are still a few months before the agreed time to meet, but you have arrived early. However, the black crystal puppet has also been completely refined. Are you ready? “
Hearing this, Liu Ming hurriedly looked back and saw that a pet.i.te figure in a green robe suddenly appeared on a cliff 90 meters behind him.
It was Qing Ling.
“Junior is ready.” Liu Ming was overjoyed. He cupped his fist and said respectfully.
“In this case, I will summon the puppet to open the s.p.a.ce tunnel and send you back now. When I cast the spell later, you should stay away from me. If you enter in advance, the result will be unimaginable.” Qing Ling nodded, made a gesture and supported herself with a five-color auspicious cloud.
“Yes.” When Liu Ming heard the words, he retreated backward and stopped at a distance of hundreds of meters from Qing Ling.
The next moment, when Qing Ling raised her arm, a skull-sized gray ball appeared in her palm. She spouted a green aura into it, then chanted. The puppet floated away and grew larger.
Not long after, a 24 meters tall gray human-shaped puppet appeared.
Immediately, a suffocating gigantic pressure spread instantly, covering Liu Ming.
Liu Ming was startled. He took a few steps back under the unstoppable spiritual pressure. He even knelt down the next moment. Fortunately, after releasing black air, his figure grew larger. Only then he was barely able to stabilize himself. However, he still looked pale and was sweating profusely.
Fortunately, this spiritual pressure was only fleeting and did not continue to oppress him. Obviously, Qing Ling deliberately controlled it.
But even so, Qing Ling gave Liu Ming a deep look with a hint of surprise in her eyes.
After Liu Ming stabilized his mind, he glanced at the puppet in front of him in shock.
This puppet was roughly similar to the one that Void Spirit controlled, but it had a circle of green halo around it. Although it wasn’t moving, the nearby s.p.a.ce was distorted for a while.
Qing Ling whispered a few incantations, then the green halo around the black crystal jade puppet trembled slightly. The surrounding mountain walls
Qing Ling stopped the incantation and pointed at the puppet.
The green halo shrank, then it spouted a black shuttle-shaped object. It enlarged while flying. In the surrounding s.p.a.ce, tiny s.p.a.ce fissures appeared one after another.
When the black shuttle grew to the size of 24 meters, before Liu Ming could take a closer look, it blurred and turned into numerous shuttle-shaped phantasms. The phantasms pierced the s.p.a.ce.
Large s.p.a.ce fissures were being torn open with loud whistles.
When the s.p.a.ce fissures joined, an incomparably huge black light hole emerged. A huge suction force rushed out at the same time.
Liu Ming suddenly felt unstable, almost unable to resist the huge suction force and fly into the light hole.
It felt like the mysterious black vortex that he came to the deepest underworld with, but it seemed a little more stable.
Just when Liu Ming was trying to do something to resist the suction, Qing Ling raised her arm and wrapped him with a green light.
Suddenly, Liu Ming was wrapped into a gentle force, and the suction force disappeared instantly.
Qing Ling didn’t look at Liu Ming, then she launched a few symbols into puppet.
That black crystal jade puppet shone in its eyes. In the middle of the black light hole, a rather small black vortex emerged.
When Liu Ming was about to say something, Qing Ling pointed a finger at it.
“Poof“, Liu Ming was immediately lifted up by the green light and floated toward the black vortex.
In the next instant, he was sent into the vortex.
Liu Ming fainted instantly. A somewhat familiar surged in his mind. Black air was rolling in the surroundings, and it was chilling cold.
He could vaguely feel that Qing Ling’s aura was getting farther and farther away.
It didn’t take long for him to feel that the cold air around him became thicker and thicker, and the pressure became stronger and stronger. He began to have a feeling of suffocation.
Liu Ming immediately raised his hands, and 12 Mountain River Pearls flashed out and surrounded him in a yellow protective light.
After doing this, the pressure around him immediately diminished, and he felt at ease.
…
Somewhere in the hilly area of the Middle Sky Continent, there was a violent fluctuation in the sky.
A black vortex appeared out of thin air, and it became bigger and bigger, turning into a 30 meters black light hole.
The next moment, a young man in a green robe flashed out of the light hole and fell straight down.
Then, the black light hole quickly disappeared.
The young man was Liu Ming.
“Boom!“
Somewhere in the hills below, there was a small pit several meters in size.
After Liu Ming grinned and snorted, he slowly sat up from the pit.
He patted the leather bag on his waist, and Xie’er flashed out. She looked at Liu Ming with a worried look, then she turned into a palm-sized Bone Scorpion and dived into the ground.
Liu Ming knew that Xie’er would definitely be monitoring the surroundings at this moment, so he sat cross-legged and channeled h.e.l.l Bone Secret.
This time, he was in the s.p.a.ce tunnel longer than the last time. The pressure in the s.p.a.ce was very strong. Fortunately, with the protection of the 12 Mountain River Pearls, Liu Ming was safe.
But even so, in the last distance, the pressure was still huge to an unimaginable level. If it wasn’t for his strong physical body, it wouldn’t be as simple as suffering some external injuries. He would most likely be torn into pieces.
Under the nourishment of h.e.l.l Bone Secret combined with the Sky Beasktin Blood, Liu Ming felt relieved and stood up after a dozen minutes.
After flexing his muscles and bones, he felt the abundant spirit around him and the bird chirps and beast roars around him, feeling like this was a different life.
Liu Ming was joyful.
“I’m finally back!”
Liu Ming muttered to himself with emotion, then he released Divine Thought to observe the surrounding environment. He wanted to confirm where he was in the Middle Sky Continent.
There were no high mountains around, but there were many small hills. It didn’t seem to be the hinterland.
At this moment, Liu Ming frowned.
Because he sensed that the surrounding spirit seemed a little chaotic.
Liu Ming thought for a while.
Although his body had not completely recovered from the discomfort of the s.p.a.ce tunnel, if he encountered any danger, he was still able to escape.
In this case, it was better to observe the surroundings to be clear of where he was now.
After making up his mind, Liu Ming recalled Xie’er and charged to the direction where the spirit was fluctuating.
After about 10 minutes, he appeared behind a boulder with a solemn expression.
A few hundred meters away in front was an open area with a slightly flat terrain.
In one of the open s.p.a.ces, a large group of giant insects that looked like centipedes were besieging a team of human cultivators.
These insects were roughly divided into 2 types: yellow and black.
A yellow bug, similar in shape to a human cultivator, had a horn on its head and a light yellow halo on it.
Those black centipedes were only about half the height of a human. Their carapace was black and shiny. Their strong forelimbs had a pair of sharp claws. They had mouthparts full of sharp teeth. Dark green liquid dripped from the mouths from time to time, stirring wisps of green smoke on the ground.
