Wonderland

"Jiu~~~~" A shrill sound suddenly exploded in the void, accompanied by the dark sea surface in the distance, which suddenly split apart and rushed out into huge waves hundreds of feet high.

Accompanying them were two black shadows that rushed into the sky. The black shadows seemed to be about ten feet high, and at first glance, they appeared to be human-shaped. The two black shadows rushed into the void hundreds of feet high, and then two scarlet eyes shot towards the spirit boat where Xiao Lin and Xia Fu were.

"Is this the Sound Owl?" Xiao Lin was slightly stunned as he looked at the two black shadows. He felt a kind of coldness and emptiness from the two black shadows. He scanned them with his spiritual sense but did not find anything. His eyes could see them clearly but his spiritual sense could not sense them.

"Oh no, they are actually two adult music owls, and they look like one male and one female." Xia Fu said solemnly with her pretty face.

"Does this musical owl have male and female ones?" Xiao Lin was also very surprised.

Xia Fu waved his sleeves, and dozens of fairy stones shot out like stars, and were accurately embedded in the array plate on the spirit boat. The entire spirit boat was shining brightly, and a layer of icy green light shield slowly rose, wrapping the entire spirit boat.

Just as all this was done, the black shadows transformed by the two sound owls suddenly split at the upper part, revealing hideous faces, and then accompanied by shrill screams, two sound waves suddenly exploded in the void. At the moment the sound waves exploded, the sea surface within a hundred miles radius exploded one after another, and huge waves burst out.

Xiao Lin only felt his body shake violently, and the next moment, the spirit boat seemed to be continuously hitting an ancient sacred mountain. The shaking and impacting feeling made Xiao Lin feel a little dizzy.

Xiao Lin hurriedly circulated his magic power, turning it into a light shield to protect his entire body. At the same time, his feet slightly floated up and hung in the air. In this way, the shock waves from the outside were absorbed and dissolved by the spirit boat, and did not reach Xiao Lin.

Xia Fu was very smart, and seeing Xiao Lin doing this, she followed suit and floated in the air. The two sound owls seemed to have noticed this, and their cracked mouths grew several times bigger again. The power of the sound waves that came from them also suddenly increased several times.

Cracks suddenly began to appear on the side of the spirit boat.

Xiao Lin had already seen that the sound waves produced by these two sound owls could actually overlap in the void and then hit the spirit boat. The interval between each overlapping sound wave was extremely short, so the spirit boat seemed to be continuously hitting an iron mountain. Even if the ice had not melted, it could not withstand such continuous impacts. In addition, the sound waves were transmitted into the boat body, causing resonance, which further accelerated the disintegration of the spirit boat.

According to Xiao Lin's estimation, if this continued, it would not take more than a cup of tea for the spirit boat to fall apart and collapse completely.

As if they saw that the spirit boat did not collapse as quickly as they had imagined, the two sound owls grew larger again, and finally reached a height of over a hundred feet. The power of the sound waves also suddenly increased several times.

"Kacha kacha~~"

Dense cracks began to appear on the side of the spirit boat. The ice did not melt and was tougher than fine iron and black steel, but it had reached its limit and could not bear it anymore.

"Looking for death." Xia Fu seemed to be unable to bear it anymore. He roared, waved his sleeves, and shot out a green flying sword. However, around the flying sword, a wisp of dark mist appeared, carrying a bit of a cold breath.

Xiao Lin was slightly stunned, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

One of the two sound owls immediately aimed its mouth at the incoming flying sword. Circles of sound waves broke through the air. The speeding green flying sword suddenly stopped when it was still dozens of feet away from the sound owl, hanging in the air, unable to move forward an inch.

The power of sound waves hit the flying sword, causing the sword body to tremble constantly and emit bursts of wailing sounds.

Xia Fu waved his hands again, and two dark rays of light tore through the void, instantly tearing apart the sound waves. Then his figure turned into a black light, breaking through the air and shooting towards Sound Owl. His pretty face was full of anger, and the murderous intent in his eyes was extremely strong.

"Jiujiu~~~"

As if they were frightened by Xia Fu's methods, the two sound owls aimed their mouths at Xia Fu at the same time, and then shot out with waves of sound, and actually collided with each other in mid-air, making a sonic boom.

I saw waves of exploding sound waves shooting towards Xia Fu. Xia Fu was already less than thirty feet away from the two sound owls, but his body suddenly stopped. He opened his mouth and shot out a pitch-black shield. The shield quickly grew larger, barely growing to a size of ten feet, and the waves of sonic booms hit the shield one after another.

"Boom~~~"

With a muffled groan, Xia Fu's body flew into the air and flew towards the spirit boat. Her pretty face was very pale.

Sonic attacks contain shock waves. Once they enter the body, they can instantly paralyze the entire body. Moreover, under the shock of the distance, any living creature may fall apart instantly. This is also the terrifying aspect of extreme sonic attacks.

In the world of immortal cultivation, most of the sound waves are just sound wave attacks, which are tangible and physical, but this shock wave is contained within the sound wave, which is silent and invisible, and penetrates the body without any discernible form. After being penetrated by it, the person's every part of the body may be destroyed.

After all, Xia Fu was at the Tribulation Crossing stage, and his body was strong. Although he was knocked back, his body was not destroyed. However, his internal organs were severely injured by the violent shock wave, and he needed to recuperate immediately. It would be difficult for him to move for at least a period of time.

There was a hint of despair in Xia Fu's eyes. The sonic attack of the Sound Owl was indeed an unsolvable magical power for cultivators. No matter how powerful the magic weapon was, it would instantly collapse in front of the shock wave. This was why the Guichou Sea was named so.

In the Guichou Sea, the number of sound owls is actually very rare. When a sound owl is born, it is only slightly stronger than a vicious soul, and then it grows by constantly devouring residual souls. It takes tens of thousands of years before it can grow into an adult sound owl.

During this process, the Sound Owl also has many natural enemies, such as the Soul Ghost, which is several times more powerful than the Evil Soul and likes to devour the Sound Owl.

Therefore, the number of music owls that can truly reach adulthood in the entire Guichou Sea will never exceed ten.

This was also the reason why Xia Fu tried to cross the Guichou Sea with a fluke mentality, but her luck seemed not to be very good, as she still encountered two adult music owls.

"Fairy, please take this elixir quickly and recuperate. These two evil beasts will be left to me." At this time, Xiao Lin's firm voice sounded beside Xia Fu's ears. At the same time, a elixir with a ball of spiritual light shot into the air and hit her palm.

Xia Fu looked at the elixir in his hand and did not swallow it. Instead, he turned around and wanted to give Xiao Lin some instructions.

But what happened next shocked her.

Xiao Lin's body shot out into the air towards the two sound owls. The two sound owls were naturally not polite either. Their ferocious faces suddenly tore open, revealing two bloody mouths. Then waves of sound waves vibrated out, and when they crossed, bursts of sonic booms immediately erupted.

The sonic boom squeezed the void and shot towards Xiao Lin with endless shock waves.

Seeing this, Xiao Lin did not panic at all, but smiled faintly: "Evil beast, your sound wave ability has hit a wall when it encounters Xiao today."

After saying that, Xiao Lin pinched the spiritual spell with both hands, and a gray shadow instantly expanded out. In the blink of an eye, it covered an area of ​​several thousand feet, wrapping up the two sound owls.

The shock wave that had reached Xiao Lin suddenly stagnated. Not only that, the two sound owls also closed their open mouths instantly, revealing an expression of disbelief as they stared at Xiao Lin.

Xiao Lin also stopped, smiled, and flicked his right hand, and the shock wave disappeared like a breeze.

Seeing this scene, Xia Fu was also stunned, but she quickly reacted.

"Celestial Magnetic Field? Brother Xiao actually cultivated this Celestial Magnetic Field magical power?" Since Xia Fu knew how terrifying the Sound Owl was, he naturally did some research on it. The Sound Owl was invisible and the sound waves it produced could be resisted by most high-level cultivators. However, once attacked, almost nothing could break its shock waves, making it an almost unsolvable magical power.

But all things in the world are interdependent and mutually exclusive. This sound owl is not really invincible. The only nemesis of its sonic magic is the celestial magnetic field. This field can only be formed after the primordial magnetic force reaches its extreme and changes from quantitative change to qualitative change. Within the range of the celestial magnetic field, the void is instantly emptied and stagnated, leaving the sonic magic with no medium to transmit, and the destructive power naturally returns to zero.

Xiao Lin smiled and flew in front of the two sound owls. He waved his hand gently, and the huge bodies of the two sound owls immediately began to shrink. In the blink of an eye, they turned into two night owls, each three inches tall. They were trapped in his palms and could not move at all.

"Although the magical powers of these evil beasts are limited, their power is extraordinary. If Xiao had not cultivated the field of celestial magnetism, I would be helpless against them. I will temporarily imprison and keep them. Using them to guard the cave will be a perfect choice." After talking to himself for a while, Xiao Lin imprisoned them with the power of celestial magnetism, and then put them into the beast ring, while asking Xiao Hei to keep a close watch on them.

The surprise on Xia Fu's pretty face had not disappeared yet. She stared at Xiao Lin blankly until Xiao Lin collected the two music owls, and then she came to her senses.

"Fairy, let's keep going."

"I really didn't expect that Brother Xiao actually cultivated this kind of magical power secret technique, which is just right to restrain the sound wave magical power of this sound owl. It really makes Xia Fu look at him with new eyes."

"Thank you for the compliment, fairy. It's just a coincidence, haha." Xiao Lin looked at Xia Fu's playful expression, which showed joy in surprise and horror in joy, and he couldn't help but laughed out loud with his head raised.

Xia Fu's pretty face instantly turned red, and the resentment in her eyes flashed away, replaced by shyness.
A few days later, Xiao Lin and Xia Fu came to an isolated island. The island was about several hundred miles in radius. The whole island was wrapped in a thick Taiyin aura, and the coldness was accompanied by a disturbing feeling of depression.

The ghost path is a very unique direction of practice in the world of immortal cultivation. Whether in the mortal world or in the spiritual world, it seems somewhat out of place.

In comparison, ghost cultivators are even rarer than demon cultivators.

There are two branches of ghost cultivators. One is the immortal cultivators whose physical bodies were shattered, and they had no choice but to turn to the ghost path. After they cultivated to a certain level, they used the Taiyin Xuan Qi to reshape their physical bodies, which is somewhat similar to the golden body of Buddhism. However, compared to the golden body of Buddhism, this kind of ghost cultivator is much inferior in strength and future path of cultivation.

The Buddhist sect practices and polishes the golden body, but will not give up the physical body. Only after ascending to the fairyland, will they use supreme magical powers to reshape the physical body and achieve the true golden body.

The physical body condensed by ghost cultivators is based on the Taiyin Mysterious Qi. In terms of level, it is one level lower than the power of the fairy world. Therefore, it is extremely difficult for this kind of ghost cultivator to ascend. Just like a cultivator who has taken over another's body, it is almost impossible for them to meet the conditions for ascension in this lifetime.

Another way is to use oneself as a foundation, turn to the path of ghost cultivation, and use the power of Taiyin to temper the body. This kind of ghost cultivation has unlimited possibilities, and it is not impossible for it to ascend to the underworld in the future and achieve the status of ghost immortal.

However, the Netherworld is illusory. No matter in the mortal world or the spirit world, there have always been legends about the Immortal World. Moreover, through the exiled immortal Feng, Xiao Lin already knew that the Immortal World does exist. But the Netherworld is different. Whether it exists or not is another matter of debate. As for ascending to the Netherworld, there are very few similar successful examples in the spirit world.

Taiyin Xuanqi is an extremely yin and cold energy, extremely pure. It is the source of power for the ghost cultivators' breathing, and is also the foundation for supporting the use of ghost cultivators' magical powers.

"Brother Xiao, let's go to Kuyuan Castle first, then enter Wuguang City, and then we can enter Tiangui Mountain. Tiangui Mountain is our destination and also the place where that strange man practices in seclusion." Xia Fu said to Xiao Lin.

"Everything is up to the fairy." Although Xiao Lin was not affected in this ghost cultivation area, he still felt a little uncomfortable. Xiao Lin practiced ice-based exercises and extracted ice power from the spiritual energy. Therefore, the chill of the Taiyin Xuanqi only made him a little uncomfortable, but he did not feel uncomfortable.

If a cultivator who has practiced the Zhiyang technique came here, he would be considered good if he could display 70% to 80% of his magical powers.

The two of them turned into two rays of light and flew away into the distance.

A few days later, the two arrived at a mountain. Perhaps it was because the Taiyin energy was too strong in this Luo Guiyu, the sky was always filled with gloomy gray fog that never dissipated all year round, so the entire Luo Guiyu was shrouded in a gray sky.

If it weren't for the two of them having amazing eyesight, they could probably only see about a hundred feet ahead at most.

"We've arrived at Kuyuan Castle." Xia Fu said with a smile, then pressed the escape light and shot towards a dark canyon in the distance. Xiao Lin followed closely behind. After the two of them fell hundreds of feet, a huge city gradually appeared in front of them.

Xiao Lin knew that this should be Kuyuan City. Kuyuan City was narrow and slender, hundreds of miles long and only tens of miles wide.

Perhaps it was because they were in the canyon and the surroundings were extremely dark. Although Xiao Lin was in mid-air, he could only see the small dots in the city and could not see the appearance of the people in them. Soon, Xiao Lin and Xia Fu landed in front of the gate of Kuyuan Castle. (End of this chapter)
