Your Majesty, please beg for mercy. The prince's rebellion was successful.

Yin City is located in the north of the Northern Land.

It is only about three days' journey from the border between Dazhou and Daxia.

When Xiao Mu felt Zhou Zheng's urgency, he rushed all the way with only a few hundred fine cavalry.

He didn't know what was in Yin City, and he didn't know why Zhou Zheng cared so much, but his intuition told Xiao Mu that this trip to Yin City was definitely not easy.

Of course, Xiao Mu's heart beat involuntarily while he was on the road.

Along the way, as far as the eye can see, there is no grass growing, a desert, completely covered by Gobi.

Within sight, there was no human habitation for hundreds of miles, and even birds and animals were rarely seen.

The wind and sand filled the entire sky, making everyone's journey very difficult. Fortunately, Xiao Mu was prepared in advance, and all the people following him were elites, so they were able to reluctantly go.

But the deeper he went, the solemn look on Zhou Zheng's face became more obvious, because he could clearly feel that there was a hint of chilling in the air.

"This place used to be a fertile land, where people lived and worked in peace and contentment, the economy was prosperous, and life was lively."

"But there was a fierce battle here in the previous dynasty, and hundreds of thousands of people were buried here."

"The fire spread, scorching the world, and the entire earth was covered with skeletons."

"Although the blood has dissipated and dried up, the murderous spirit here has not disappeared. On the contrary, it has become more and more intense."

"Someone once said that these soldiers and generals who died here were unwilling to leave, and their grievances lingered on, so they lived here for a long time, and it was cold and cold."

Noticing the change in Zhou Zheng's expression, Xiao Mu slowly opened his mouth to explain.

The war horse under his crotch became a little restless when it entered this area.

And the location of Yin City is at the very center of this world.

There, the energy of death and resentment are the strongest.

"No matter what's inside, I must go and see it."

Taking a deep breath to suppress the fluctuations in his heart, Zhou Zheng's eyes remained as firm as ever.

He doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, and he doesn't care about the so-called death date!

This time, he is bound to win Yin City and will definitely go there in person.

Seeing Zhou Zheng like this, Xiao Mu also smiled bitterly.

I didn’t expect that after decades of galloping on the battlefield, I would not be as good as Zhou Zheng now.

"Well, I also want to know what kind of secrets are hidden there!"

With a low roar, he clamped his legs around the horse's belly and urged him hard, causing the originally agitated war horse to calm down and gallop towards the depths of the land.

......

"It's right in front."

When they stopped again, everyone was already dusty.

Xiao Mu's voice was a little excited, he pointed forward and said in a deep voice.

Before their sight, countless mounds stood. These mounds were not sand dunes, but they were not as tall as mountains.

The hills rise and fall in succession.

But what makes people feel weird is that the originally dry air has become a little moist here, and the smoke lingers on the hills, which looks particularly weird.

Zhou Ping and others had never seen this phenomenon before. For a moment, surprise and fear appeared in their eyes.

The war horse under his feet kept retreating, showing panic.

"Boss, this place is a little weird."

After coughing a little, Zhou Ping swallowed his saliva and whispered softly into Zhou Zheng's ear.

This place is obviously the same world, but why are there two different scenes? The most important thing is that being here makes Zhou Ping feel a little chilly.

"It seems that this place was indeed a fertile land."

Zhou Zheng's tone was relatively calm. Unlike the panic on others' faces, he didn't feel much discomfort.

The mounds here are different from the sand dunes. They can lock the gas escaping from the depths of the earth here.

If nothing else, there should be a large underground river beneath this land.

Although the underground river is deep, some water droplets are constantly escaping. When it collides with the surrounding hot weather, it will naturally gradually atomize.

In order to test his idea, Zhou Zheng jumped off his horse. When his feet landed on the ground, the soil was soft and even slightly moist.

In this way, Zhou Zheng's guess was confirmed.

But it was difficult for Zhou Zheng to explain these things.

After all, this knowledge is not something that Xiao Mu and Zhou Ping can understand.

"Your Majesty is like this, why should we be greedy for life and afraid of death!?"

But this move made Xiao Mu and all the soldiers feel ashamed, and they all dismounted with a low roar.

If they really want to be buried here, they must not lose face in front of Zhou Zheng.

Zhou Zheng didn't pay too much attention to this.

"According to what Qing'er said back then, Yin City is at the innermost place."

"She once said that at the top of the clouds and mist, the colorful lights appear, which is the city of Yin."

Xiao Mu spoke with some uncertainty. He has understood this sentence for many years, but has not found a way to solve it.

Xiao Mu even once thought that this sentence represented some kind of special formula.

After hearing this, Zhou Zheng was thoughtful.

"Brothers, guard this area and no one is allowed to enter it!"

Taking a deep breath, Zhou Zheng turned around and looked at the hundreds of elites and shouted in a deep voice!

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, everyone dispersed in an orderly manner, carefully watching their surroundings.

"Grandpa, leave the rest to me."

Although he didn't know what was inside Yin City, Zhou Zheng was still unwilling to let Xiao Mu take risks.

But this made Xiao Mu a little unhappy, and he vowed to follow Zhou Zheng into it.

After thinking for a while, Zhou Zheng agreed.

Immediately, Zhou Zheng, Xiao Mu and Zhou Ping slowly entered the rolling hills.

The deeper you go, the stronger the feeling of coldness comes from your body.

Some strange figures vaguely floated in his ears, making Zhou Ping's whole body tremble.

Fortunately, Xiao Mu had a strong sense of direction and did not lose his way.

Taking Zhou Zheng and Zhou Ping with them, they continued towards the deepest point.

"It should be right here!"

After burning the incense, Xiao Mu brought Zhou Zheng and Zhou Ping to a stop without any danger.

He exhaled the turbid air in his chest, looked at a towering hill in front of him, and spoke in a deep voice.

This hill is much taller than the surrounding ones, giving it a sense of independence.

The surrounding smoke and billowing clouds are even more visually shocking.

It has to be said that if it weren't for the chilly air around it, and if it weren't for the hundreds of miles of deserted area, this place alone would be enough to attract countless literati and poets to come and watch.

"However, there is no colorful light here."

Frowning his brows, Zhou Ping felt much calmer at this time, but he still looked confused.

"Colorful light?"

"Simple~"

Zhou Zheng raised his head, with a glimmer of wisdom in his eyes.
