The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 2709 Entering the Imperial Land for the First Time

The Star Swallowing Sword Tree is very strange. All the starlight within dozens of miles around it will be absorbed by it, but after it leaves, those starlight will reappear, but it will be much dimmer.

Therefore, people who enter the Falling Star Sea think that the Star Swallowing Sword Tree has swallowed the starlight and absorbed its power.

There are many rumors about the Star Swallowing Sword Tree. Some say it is everywhere, but some say it only has one tree.

However, no matter what the rumor is, it will make people more afraid of the thousand-foot-tall Star Swallowing Sword Tree.

After listening to Emperor Ear Ting's description of the Star-Swallowing Sword Tree, Fang Yun felt familiar, but the strange thing was that when he thought about it, he seemed to have seen it before after leaping through the Dragon Gate, in the Heavenly Tree, and on the Dragon Cliff. , but if you recall carefully, you will find that there is no place where the Star Swallowing Sword Tree exists.

Time passed slowly, one day, two days, three days...

Everyone was almost always on their way, and under the leadership of Emperor Eel Ting, they did not encounter any danger.

Along the way, Emperor Eel was mostly talking, so that later everyone thought he was a nagging eel, but everyone felt that what he said was very useful.

After several days of long journey, the seven team members gradually became familiar with each other, chatted occasionally, and their relationship became closer.

On the seventh day, everyone was chatting. Fang Yun glanced ahead and continued to listen to everyone chatting.

After a few breaths, Emperor Ear Ting said: "Slow down, we are almost reaching the Imperial Land."

The four old team members all showed complicated expressions, but then they were on full alert.

Although the three new team members, Fang Yun, King Yungen and King Xiang Yi, were also wary, they were more curious and excited.

Slowly, everyone's speed slowed down to one cry.

Fang Yun's eyes surged with talent, and all the starlight turned into extremely tiny points of light, revealing the scene ahead.

Among the many light spots, there is a translucent colorful glow, which floats slowly and is boundless.

Within the glow, one can see a land of loess, desolate and monotonous, like a desert that has been weathered for thousands of years.

After walking for a long time, Xiang Yihuang said: "I saw it!"

Emperor Eel Ting reminded: "From now on, you are not allowed to shout or make random moves. Without my order, even if a dragon puts its teeth on your head, you must calmly swallow it and let it flow into your mouth." The smelly saliva!”

When Ao Fen heard this, he opened his mouth and let out a gentle breath, then continued to inhale through his nose, as if he was smelling his own saliva.

"Stinky!" Emperor Shui Ku said.

"Dead jellyfish!" Ao Fen became angry in embarrassment.

The closer they were to the Emperor's Land, the slower everyone's speed became. Finally, everyone slowly passed through the colorful glow and stepped onto the Emperor's Land.

There was no strange feeling, and the three new team members breathed a sigh of relief.

Emperor Ear Ting said: "Okay, we can take a rest. The colorful glow on the edge of the Imperial Land has a very strange power and can stop the evil spirits from the outside world. Next, what we have to worry about is the danger in the Imperial Land."

Emperor Yuting did not continue to speak, and the other three veteran team members were also silent.

The seven people began to rest, and Fang Yun immediately lay down on the sand boat to sleep, although it was very uncomfortable.

An hour later, Emperor Eel Ting's voice came.

"We're going to start again."

Fang Yun immediately woke up after hearing this and found that everyone was the same as him. Their tiredness disappeared and they became energetic.

Emperor Eel Ting led the way, and the other six team members silently followed behind.

Emperor Yuting raised his head and glanced at the sky above, and said: "In the Imperial Land, the sky above is a forbidden area. You must never fly to high places. Also, once you enter the dark night of the Imperial Land, you should never stop and rest. Walk, don’t fly, whether you’re walking forward or sideways, don’t stop even if you’re going in circles. Once you stop, you’ll never get out.”

The three new team members suddenly felt terrified.

Emperor Xiang Yi asked in a low voice: "What is there in the dark night of the Imperial Land?"

"The existence of great terror, the great unknown power." Emperor Ear Ting said slowly.

Emperor Xiang Yi hurriedly said: "When the time comes, please remind me that I don't want to die."

Ao Fen laughed and said, "You don't have to be afraid. As long as you don't stop, you won't die. No one dies in the dark night of the Imperial Land."

"Be, die."

Emperor Shui Ku's words choked Ao Fen.

Emperor Yuting looked solemn and said: "Do you understand now? In the dark night of the Imperial Land, as long as you trap someone, it is equivalent to killing him. Once you encounter the enemy in the dark night of the Imperial Land, you would rather be injured than Trapped. Trapped, you die."

"Thank you for reminding me." Emperor Xiang Yi thanked him quickly.

Ao Fen rolled his eyes and said, "Xiang Yihuang, I found something wrong with you."

"Ah? Senior, please tell me and I will change it immediately!" Emperor Xiang Yi said hurriedly.

"You're a bit timid!" Ao Fen said with a bad smile.

Emperor Xiang Yi coughed lightly to cover up his embarrassment and said: "It's the root of the disease that happened when I was young. However, I am very strong, so it doesn't matter if I am timid."

Everyone couldn't laugh or cry.

Such a big elephant king is like a city wall, but he is so timid. I don’t know how he has cultivated to this point.

Fang Yun looked around the imperial land.

This place is as desolate as it looks from the outside. The pure yellow land and hills constitute the only color between heaven and earth. If you want to find other colors, you can only look at the colorful glow that envelopes the imperial land.

Emperor Ear Ting said: "I said before that the Imperial Land does not go up the mountains. Those hills and hills look harmless, but you should never go up there, even if it takes a day's detour."

"Will he die?" Emperor Xiang Yi asked.

Eel Emperor said: "Not only will they die, but they will die miserably. We once saw the emperor of another team climb a small hill, which was only three feet high, not even up to your knees. Then, the emperor went crazy. He kept running and running, and his body was like a water bag with dozens of holes pierced. All the strength began to leak out, and later even the intestines, heart, lungs and even bones flowed out, and finally only a piece of skin was left."

Ao Fen said: "In the end, the skin stood up, like a living thing, glanced at us, and then jumped into the hill and disappeared."

"Is it so scary?" Xiang Yi Emperor widened his eyes.

Emperor Man Ting said: "So, the Imperial Land is a treasure land, but also a dangerous land. There are many taboos in the Imperial Land, and there are many things that cannot be done. I heard from others that there was a half-saint shouting in the Imperial Land, and then two giant hands descended from the sky, tearing the half-saint for hundreds of breaths like tearing dried fish, and they were still tearing it into a meat paste."

"If you had told me earlier that the Imperial Land was like this, I wouldn't have come!" Emperor Xiang Yi lowered his voice.

Emperor Man Ting comforted: "Okay, don't be afraid. We all know 99% of the taboos in the Imperial Land. As long as you don't do anything stupid, you won't die."

"99%? What about the last taboo?" Emperor Xiang Yi asked.

Ao Fen rolled his eyes at Emperor Xiang Yi and said: "When someone breaks a new taboo and is killed, you will know."

"Can I... quit?" Emperor Xiang Yi asked.

"Too late!" Emperor Man Ting, Ao Fen, Emperor Yanwen, King Yungen and Fang Yun said in unison, and then laughed together.

"Alas..." The Elephant Emperor shook his big nose, feeling desperate.
