My clan is super powerful

Chapter 234: Exploring the Stronghold; Disappointed Zhang Zhi, the Purpose of the Mind Flayer (July Monthly Ticket Plus)
Zixia next to him looked at Zhang Zhi with a strange expression: "Why are you doing this?"

Zhang Zhi turned around and glanced at Zixia: "Nothing, I just want to verify something."

The result made Zhang Zhi a little helpless. He didn't know if it was because the shadow god had been converted, but until dawn, the six reincarnation monks who went out did not encounter any black shadows again.

After being converted, the shadow god disappeared after returning to the state of a normal soul.

After dawn, Zhang Zhi did not stay in the mining area for long. After learning about the general situation of this world from the three extraordinary creatures, he summoned Ao Guang, took out the map, and flew towards the location of the Mind Flayer stronghold marked on the map.

I learned from the extraordinary creature that this is a middle thousand world.

As for why the laws that Zixia perceived at the beginning were only similar to those of a large small world, the reason was very simple. It was naturally because of the law of death.

In the words of the extraordinary creature, darkness is swallowing everything, including the daytime.

The strange law of death is converting all the laws of this world into the strange rules of the night. In the end, even the light and the sun will be swallowed up by the strange law of death.

It is precisely because the night is becoming more and more terrifying that almost all the powerful people who can leave this world have left.

In other words, although this world is a middle thousand world, there are basically no gods. The few demigods who have not left are almost the kind of beings who are unwilling to leave because their time is up and they know that they have no chance of reaching the god level.

In other words, in the daytime world, Zhang Zhi can think of himself as invincible in the whole world.

At this time, the night has become a place for him to gain merit. The idea of leaving this world and returning to the main world has long been forgotten by him.

Following the instructions on the map, the two of them took about half an hour to reach the Mind Flayer's previous stronghold.

This is because I was not familiar with the terrain and spent a lot of time comparing the map.

It is called a stronghold, but in fact it is more like a nest.

The reason for this is that, except for the building at the entrance which is above ground, the rest of the base is located in a huge space dug out from the ground.

The underground space is extremely large, and many areas are in darkness. After Zhang Zhi frowned and looked at the cave entrance for a while, he summoned dozens of elite cultivators with an idea.

Originally, he planned to go into the Mind Flayer's base to see what was going on, but after discovering that it was pitch black inside, he finally gave up the idea.

The more people there are, the faster the exploration will be.

While those clansmen were exploring the underground space, they also made Zhang Zhi certain of one thing: the black shadows did not only appear at night.

The exploring clan encountered a dark shadow in the underground space.

It seems that these dark shadows will appear in any area without light.

But Zhang Zhi discovered a problem. He turned to Zixia and asked, "Miss Zixia, don't you notice anything wrong down there?"

Zixia glanced at Zhang Zhi, shook her head with a puzzled look and said, "No, there is no problem here."

Zhang Zhi pondered for a moment, activated three light talismans, and slowly stepped into the entrance of the underground space.

Following the sloping passage down to a depth of more than fifty meters below the ground, Zixia suddenly said, "Something is indeed amiss."

"The laws of this area now are completely different from those on the ground. The laws here are the same as those at night, and it is filled with all kinds of weird things."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Zhi turned around and looked around. With a thought, Fang Sanzang appeared beside him.

Fang Sanzang nodded towards Zhang Zhi, activated the illumination talisman, and slowly walked away.

Zixia, who was beside Zhang Zhi, looked at Fang Sanzang curiously after seeing him appear, as he had the aura of the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

Looking at Fang Sanzang walking towards the place where he had just discovered the black shadow, Zhang Zhi suddenly had an idea. He thought that if Fang Sanzang walked in the dark without using the fire talisman, he would definitely get lost in the darkness.

He had always been curious about what happened to Fang Yun and his companions after they got lost in the darkness yesterday, wondering if they were teleported directly to the lair of the Death Avatar.

If that's really the case, then if Fang Sanzang goes there, he might be able to convert a lot of the black shadows, right?
Just as Zhang Zhi was thinking about something, he heard Fang Sanzang's buzzing sound from the front.

That was naturally when Fang Sanzang encountered the black shadow and began to chant the mantra for rebirth.

This was also the first time that Zhang Zhi encountered something that could penetrate the darkness.

Before this, any movement around could not pass through the darkness, and any movement within the light circle could not penetrate the darkness and be transmitted to the distance.

This mantra of rebirth is really strange.

Zixia, who was standing next to him, blinked when she heard the mantra of rebirth and looked in the direction where the sound came from.

Then, she whispered to Zhang Zhi, "Is this the power of the law of the Six Paths of Reincarnation? It can actually break the shackles of the laws of time and space in the darkness and be transmitted to us." Zhang Zhi didn't have time to pay attention to her at this moment. He was paying attention to his own merits to see if they had increased.

After a while without noticing any merit being credited to his account, he suddenly became a little lazy.

I thought to myself, it seems that only the Shadow God can gain merit?

After confirming that any area in this world that was not exposed to light would become a terrifying dark place, he did not stay down there but returned to the ground.

Fang Sanzang cleared it out very quickly. Zhang Zhi waited there for about half an hour, and Fang Sanzang cleared out all the black shadows inside. There was no shadow god that Zhang Zhi was thinking about.

While Fang Sanzang was clearing away the dark shadows, the other members of the clan used their storage rings to move everything from the underground space up.

Zhang Zhi checked and found that all the magical weapons related to the Mind Flayer had turned into a bunch of useless lumps.

However, there were also unexpected discoveries in the pile of things. He found some books with Mind Flayer characters and a large amount of paper materials in the pile.

It was a bit strange looking at that pile of paper materials.

Paper materials are definitely not the mainstream method used by mind flayers to record information.

Judging from the information Zhang Zhi has obtained so far, most of the information about the Mind Stealer is recorded in a special stone, just like the path to cultivation and becoming an immortal.

The jade pendant used for the cultivation path, and the path of the mind flayer is a black stone called the soul stone by the mind flayer.

Zhang Zhi did find a large number of soul stones in this stronghold, but those soul stones had now turned into a pile of ordinary stones that were completely useless.

All the spiritual power in the soul stone was sucked away by the strange laws in the dark night.

At present, the main world has cracked the text of the Mind Flayer, so Zhang Zhi can barely understand the words in the book.

Those dozen or so books are all similar to travel notes. It seems that the owner of these books should be the same person.

The notebooks written with the Mind Flayer's words have different handwritings, and it is obvious that they were written by different Mind Flayers.

After flipping through a few books, I found that they basically contained records of daily work.

Zhang Zhi was a little confused. The Mind Flayer was best at using his mental power. Why didn't he use the Soul Stone to keep the work contents, but wrote them down in a notebook?

It was not until he saw a notebook with the words "our mental strength has declined severely" and "when will the people who will replace us arrive" that Zhang Zhi realized that they had started using paper materials to record their work content after they realized that the darkness of this world could absorb their mental strength.

After pondering for a moment, Zhang Zhi found a place to sit down and began to carefully look through the paper documents.

Zixia, who was standing by, saw that Zhang Zhi was going to carefully check the paper materials, so she took out a few notebooks with great interest and began to look through them.

After looking through many workbooks, Zhang Zhi concluded one thing:
The mind flayers in this stronghold are not here to invade this Middle Thousand World, but to search for something.

This is why this stronghold is underground.

Thinking of this, Zhang Zhi's eyes focused. There must be something in this underground cave that he has not discovered yet.

At the same time, the mind flayers invaded this world not to enslave it, but because something in this world attracted them.

Could it be because of the Law of Death?

He turned to the followers he had summoned and said, "Go down there and check if there are any secret passages or things hidden in the space."

Zixia, who was standing next to him, also spoke up at this time: "Take a look at this book."

"The mind flayer who wrote this book seems to be of high status. The content inside is quite interesting."

Zhang Zhi took the notebook and looked through it carefully.

After reading the book, Zhang Zhi roughly understood what the mission of these mind flayers was.

The owner of this book should be the leader of this team of mind flayers.

Perhaps the Mind Flayer never thought that other races would be able to obtain its work log. At the same time, in order to ensure a smooth handover of work, many contents in this notebook were written in great detail.

The reason why they appear here is very simple, because the Mind Flayer's mental power law has reached its limit at this time.

In other words, the laws of the Mind Flayer's main world have reached their limit. Therefore, they have sent out countless teams to search for all the laws related to mental power, hoping to accumulate enough mental power laws so that they can break through and make their main world a more powerful world.
