From the Valkyrie to the Endless

"Friend Daoist Shen."

Seeing the escaping light, Han Jiao immediately came forward with a smile on his face: "It's only been two days since we last met, and Brother Shen seems to have made some progress."

There was surprise in his eyes, and it was not just a compliment. He could feel that compared to the last time they met, Shen Qing's cultivation had improved a bit, and it was quite obvious.

This speed inevitably surprised him. If it was so easy to advance into the Gangsha realm, he would not have remained in this realm for so many years.

"No, I just adjusted it a bit." Shen Qing shook his head without further explanation. He looked up at the huge crack in the sky with his eyes slightly narrowed.

"Team Leader Han, is that the Divine Tunnel No. 0023?"

"good."

Han Jiao nodded: "Thank you for your help today, fellow Taoist."

"polite."

Shen Qing glanced behind Han Jiao and asked, "Who is the guardian of the country today?"

"We will be there in a moment. Please take a rest first. I will introduce you to some of my colleagues."

Han Jiao turned around and led the way for Shen Qing. In addition to the people who were blocking and guarding the outer perimeter, thirteen people had gathered in front of the passage, eight men and five women. Without exception, all of them were fourth-level descendants of gods.

Obviously, the General Administration of Psionic Energy attaches great importance to this exploration.

Shen Qing had previously seen some information about Tunnel No. 0023. The strength of the channel this time was quite stable. If nothing unexpected happened, this channel would be retained for a long time.

In this case, it is necessary to establish a temporary safe zone at the other end of the channel.

With a buffer zone, even if uncontrollable changes occur, the Shenzhou Alliance will have enough time to respond and will not be in a panic when invaded.

Han Jiao took Shen Qing and gave a brief introduction to each of them.

Most of these descendants of gods are already quite old, at least over a hundred years old. They are all well versed in the ways of the world, and at least on the surface, they are all very friendly towards Shen Qing.

However, there is always a sense of alienation amidst the friendliness.

Shen Qing did not pretend, but asked indirectly for a lot of information about the other end of the tunnel.

These people, including Han Jiao, have already entered the tunnel several times and have rich experience, so they really need to learn from it.

All in all, after the conversation, the impression left on each other was pretty good, and no one was difficult to get along with.

After less than half an hour, a ray of silver light broke through the clouds and landed in front of everyone.

"Meet Xing Zhenguo."

All the fourth-level descendants of gods bowed in salute.

The Zhenguo who led the team this time was named Xing Sheng. He was a man who looked to be in his early twenties, extremely young and tall. He was wearing a silver-grey casual suit and had short haircut. His hair was as white as silver needles, with strong facial features and a heroic look. He had an extraordinary aura.

Xing Sheng glanced at everyone, and when he saw Shen Qing, he nodded slightly as a greeting.

"Set off."

Xing Sheng was obviously not a man who liked to talk nonsense. After counting the number of people and putting on a navy blue robe, he stepped directly into the dark crack in the air.

There were only ten people who entered the passage, including Shen Qing. In order to avoid accidents, the remaining few people stayed at the entrance to provide support.

Shen Qing followed several people and entered the crack one by one.

This was the first time Shen Qing stepped into a place like a teleportation channel, and the feeling was extremely mysterious.

It was pitch black all around and it was impossible to breathe. The extremely cold temperature enveloped the surface of the body and one could only continuously circulate the internal Qi to maintain the smooth flow of blood.

The cultivators in the Condensation Stage were completely unable to protect themselves when they entered the passage. Their true energy was quickly exhausted and they were unable to continue, and they died in the passage.

An unknown amount of time had passed, but Shen Qing's internal energy was almost depleted, and the darkness around him suddenly faded away. The cold air dissipated, and a terrifying wave of spiritual energy rushed towards him.

Shen Qing looked around intently. This side of the corridor should still be a secluded valley in the wild.

Two moons hung high in the sky, one silver and one gold, like jade plates. The heavy moonlight fell, and even caused a resonance in the Tao seed in Shen Qing's body. The speed of the illusory stars in his dantian increased dramatically.

There is no doubt that at the other end of the passage is a new world where one can practice cultivation.

Compared to the passage we came from, the crack on this end seemed a little narrower and could barely accommodate one person.

boom--

There was a loud bang like thunder, and a huge black shadow appeared at the entrance of the valley. Shen Qing looked in the direction of the sound and couldn't help holding his breath.

This figure was nearly forty feet tall, covered in scale armor, standing upright, dragging a huge bone club, four heads and eight arms, six ears, a lion's head and a horse's face, purple-red mane draped behind his head, and a green-gray face, like a ghost.

This appearance is exactly the same as the legendary monster, it is extremely terrifying. Its strength is also extraordinary. There is protective aura lingering around its body, and it has entered the late fourth level.

This was the first time Shen Qing had seen a monster, and she couldn't help but feel alert. This kind of monster was completely different from the spiritual monster Red Blood Vine she had seen before. They were incomparable.

In the information of the General Administration of Psychic Energy, it was once mentioned that the demon race is difficult to control, and even if you spend a lot of effort to train and tame them, they will still rebel.

After entering the fourth level, the identity will be completely different. The demon creatures at this level can be called great demon generals in the ancient demon clan, and their subordinates must command the demon clan.

As soon as this thought arose, there was a vibration all over the mountain at the entrance of the valley, thick smoke billowed, and countless monsters of various shapes appeared.

Obviously there have been secret sentries of demons watching this place, otherwise the reaction would not be so quick.

"Roar--"

Suddenly there was a roar, and the fourth-level demon ghost dragged a big stick, pushing down mountains and forests, and rushed towards everyone.

Suddenly, Xing Sheng, who was high above the sky, raised his hand abruptly. A ray of blood light flowed out from his fingertips, and red spiritual patterns appeared in the void, interweaving with each other. In the blink of an eye, they had condensed into a formation.

In an instant, a magic array spanning more than ten feet appeared in the void, and then red spiritual patterns flashed, accompanied by a loud dragon roar. From the center of the spiritual array, a giant dragon with flames wrapped all over its body rushed out. It was more than a hundred feet long.

boom!

The giant fire dragon slammed heavily into the group of monsters and ghosts. Wherever it passed, there were charred corpses and remains, which was extremely terrifying.

This method made Shen Qing's eyes light up. Xing Sheng was obviously a spiritual formation master, and his attainments were extremely high, which was simply beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

She had never seen a spiritual array master of this level. He could draw talismans with blood in the void and create a killing array in an instant. Such powerful means were beyond common sense.

In the end, none of the demons and ghosts that attacked survived, including the great demon general with a lion head and a horse face. All of them were wiped out.

bang——

The spiritual formation in the air was broken, and Xing Sheng fell from the air. He sat cross-legged in front of the crack, his face solemn, and gave the order:

"There is no great demon in the Shenzang realm within a radius of ten thousand miles. Protect me. I am going to start setting up the formation."

Before he finished speaking, he opened his sleeves and threw out exactly twelve command flags.

In such a chaotic area, it is not an easy task to create a safe zone refuge. Even with the cultivation level of Shenzang realm, one cannot be distracted in this level of formation and needs to give it all.

At this moment, the protection of Shen Qing and others is needed.

The huge commotion just now has attracted some demons and ghosts, some of whom are in the Gangsha realm.

Half an incense stick later, a demon shaped like an antelope crashed into the valley, its pupils were blood red and entangled with runes.

It seemed very cautious and did not get too close, but lingered at the entrance of the valley.

A flash of lightning passed by, and the silver sword split the sky, crossed over, and cut off its head in the midst of thunder.

The moment he bathed in the demon's blood, Shen Qing felt the blood in his body boiling and feeling a little hot.

The powerful blood of the demon clan seemed to have aroused the resonance of the blood in her body. For practitioners, pure demon blood was no less than a magic medicine.

[Bloodline: Qingyuan Beast Tribe]

【Cultivation: Fourth Realm Middle Stage】

[Status: Near Death]

At the moment of blood, detailed information about the monster in front of him emerged in Shen Qing's mind.

The source of all the power of the monsters lies in their blood, which is very similar to the descendants of gods, and their blood contains amazing divine power.

The pure-blooded demon's blood may contain a trace of brutal murderous intent, but the divine power contained in it is a great tonic for practitioners.

This Qingyuan beast, which looks like an antelope, has an incredibly strong vitality. Even after its head was cut off, it still has not completely died.

Shen Qing raised his hand and slashed with his knife, directly breaking open the sheep demon's head, and dug out an amber Yuandan from the center of its eyebrows. Then he took out the knife again, cut out a huge heart, and stuffed it into the spirit ring.

Shen Qing has read a lot of information about monsters and has some general understanding of them.

What she took were the two most precious things in the monster's body. Although the rest were also precious, they were insignificant compared to the Yuandan and the heart.

There are six realms of sentient beings: gods, ghosts, humans, demons, monsters, and saints.

Among these six paths, the locations where most creatures open their divine treasures are not fixed. Only the monsters have surprisingly consistent starting points for opening the divine treasures in their bodies. The first step is the spirit platform on the head.

Monsters are ignorant by nature and it is difficult for them to attain enlightenment. In order to open their spiritual intelligence as quickly as possible, they will basically choose to open their consciousness first.

Then, it is time to open your heart, purify your blood, and tap into the potential in your body in order to get closer to your ancestors.

At the fourth stage, the monster will prepare to open the divine treasure in its body and condense the Yuandan at the center of its eyebrows, which is the essence of the whole body.

The same is true for the heart. The blood in a living being's heart gathers most of the body's essence. This feature is even more obvious in monsters.

Among the people who crossed the passage this time, three fourth-level descendants of gods stayed by Xing Sheng's side to protect him in case of any accidents.

The others, like Shen Qing, faced the big monsters that gathered from all directions, as well as the endless groups of monsters. As there were too few people, the pressure was inevitably heavy, but at this moment they could only grit their teeth and hold on.

If you can't hold on this time, there will be a next time. Giving up too early will only completely disrupt your deployment and ultimately lead to total failure.

Shen Qing originally thought that these descendants of gods should have very limited combat experience in peacetime, but the result far exceeded her expectations.

These people had quite a lot of combat experience, at least much more than hers, and they cooperated with each other very well. With their flesh and blood, they built an invisible steel fortress in front of Xing Sheng. Even under the continuous attack of the beasts, they did not retreat even a single step.

In their hands, most of them hold spiritual weapons, which come from ancient relics from all directions and have been repaired by the hands of the country's guardians. They are incredibly powerful and are no less than the country's heavy weapons.

The void was filled with strong energy and the sound of thunder continued to ring out. Within a radius of hundreds of miles, the earth and mountains were shaking. The movement was getting louder and louder, and the affected area was also expanding rapidly.

The violent wind swept up the mountains and forests, mixed with demon blood and bones, covering the sky.

Every moment, a large number of monsters fall.

Shen Qing had the sundial on her, so she didn't need to save her own energy. She attacked without restraint and killed three demon generals in the Gangsha realm in a row, and obtained the Yuandan and its heart. Countless demons had been killed by her, and the number had already exceeded a thousand. The sundial was absorbing massive amounts of energy all the time, and all of this would become her foundation.
