Chapter 277: Secret Words
Li Che nodded and said, "These four secret words are, 'Like blood but not blood, like forest but not forest, blood forest becomes a trend, all in the heart of the unicorn.'"
The two brothers silently repeated it several times in their hearts, both of them were confused, "Senior, what do these four sentences mean?"
Li Che said, "You are still young, so it's normal that you don't understand. The first two sentences, 'Like blood but not blood, like forest but not forest', mean that the legendary blood maple forest is not what everyone imagines. It is definitely not a blood maple forest, but most likely just similar."
Li Jiuzhan said, "I see. No wonder I looked in many maple forests and even red mangrove forests in Nanman but didn't find any clues."
Li Che continued, "The third sentence is, 'Blood Forest Becomes Power'. Forest belongs to wood, and water produces wood. If you want to become powerful, you must encounter water."
"Water?" The two brothers quickly recalled the major lakes and rivers in the Southern Barbarians, but none seemed suitable.
Li Che knew what the two were thinking, "There is not much water on the surface of Nanman, but the underground water source is very rich."
Li Jiuzhan asked curiously, "Could it be that there is a blood maple forest underground to the east of Nanman?"
Li Che nodded, "Almost there, but we still need to go further east."
The two men then realized that for years the Dixiong tribe and even the major tribes had been frantically searching for red forests in the southern barbarian land, but they had been looking in the wrong direction and naturally found nothing.
Li Changsheng looked into the distance and thought about what Old Man Yunshan said, "Could it be...Could it be that Emperor Hill is in the East China Sea?"
The easternmost point of the Nanman land is indeed the coast of the East China Sea, but the Jiuli people rarely set foot in the sea. If the tomb of the God of War is buried under the sea, it is really incredible.
Unexpectedly, Li Che nodded and said, "Yes, according to my guess, Emperor Hill is in the East China Sea. The blood maple forest in the rumors should be in the sea and hard to find on land."
This can explain why the descendants of Jiuli have not been able to find the Blood Maple Forest and Emperor Hill for thousands of years. But if this is true, the East China Sea is vast, even wider than the Southern Barbarians, and it is inconvenient to dive, so finding them would be even more difficult.
Seeing that the two brothers were silent, Li Che said, "It is indeed more difficult to find it in the sea, but there is still the last secret phrase to guide us."
Li Jiuzhan and Li Changsheng suddenly came to their senses and remembered that the secret had not yet been fully revealed, so they quickly concentrated and listened.
"The last sentence, 'All in the Kirin's Heart', refers to the mount of the water god Gonggong, a general under the command of our ancestor. After our ancestor passed away, this ancient spirit beast was ordered to guard the Emperor Hill. It has not moved a step for thousands of years. Its loyalty is known to the sun and the moon."
Compared with the miserable situation of Jiuli today, the descendants of all generations are completely inferior to Mo Yuan Qilin and are really ashamed of their ancestors.
Li Jiuzhan asked, "It is rumored that the Moyuan Qilin is a spiritual beast in the water, which is extremely cold. Senior, do you mean to find Diqiu by sensing its existence?"
Li Che's face showed a gratified look of "a teachable child". "Yes, at our speed, we will be able to reach the coast of the East China Sea before noon tomorrow. Then I will use 'Running into the Sea' to explore, and I will definitely gain something."
At this time, the two brothers finally understood and had more confidence in finding the mysterious Emperor Qiu that had been rumored for thousands of years, as if they were determined to get it.
After understanding the whole story, the three of them did not want to delay for a moment and controlled their weapons and magic weapons at full speed. Li Che had profound cultivation, and although he had nothing in his hands, he had already condensed his energy into clouds and took the lead.
Two hours seemed to pass in a flash, and there were no obstacles along the way. It seemed that all the major forces in the Southern Barbarians were now doing their best to deal with the monsters, and no one was paying attention to the east.
Li Changsheng was in mid-air, and gradually felt his skin getting warm. He flew for a while, passed through layers of miasma, and finally saw the endless blue sea in front of him, sparkling with waves.
Looking towards Zhongzhou in the north, the estuary of the Tunlong River is in the distance, forming a huge fog. Everything is illusory in the haze, as if you are in a fairyland, making it difficult to see clearly.
The three of them hovered over the coast of the East China Sea, and compared the years of chaos and fighting in the southern barbarian land, they suddenly felt very happy!
This was the first time Li Changsheng had come to the beach since he was a child. He said excitedly, "Brother, I didn't expect the sea to be so fascinating. If I had known, I would have come a long time ago!"
Li Jiuzhan smiled rarely, "I've been busy fighting all day, how can I have time to come here and enjoy the scenery?"
Li Changsheng nodded involuntarily, and suddenly said, "Brother, if we can obtain the treasure of our ancestors this time and unify the southern barbarians in the future, we will never have to fight again, okay?"
Li Jiuzhan smiled again but didn't say anything, but this time, he was laughing mostly at Li Changsheng's naivety.
Li Che took in the conversation between the two and looked around. "In the future, you can choose your own life. Do the important things first!"
The two of them hurried over and saluted, saying, "Excuse me, senior!"
Li Che waved his hand, "I will use the inner force of 'Running into the Sea' to protect everyone and slowly dive down. Anyone who is proficient in this phenomenon, help me explore the breath of Mo Yuan Qilin. We can communicate at any time."
"Yes!"
The two men obeyed the order solemnly, but neither of them was proficient in "rushing into the sea", so once they entered the water they could only follow Li Che's lead.
In a blink of an eye, the three of them dived into the water. Li Che used his internal force of "rushing into the sea" to isolate a piece of heaven and earth. The three of them could only move with difficulty in it, and were much inferior to the Xuanshui Sect masters who were good at the water-cold internal force.
Li Che's skills stand out among the Jiuli tribe today. Perhaps only Li Shixiao can be compared with him. It didn't take long for him to sense an unstable and powerful icy force.
"found it!"
Brother Li asked at the same time: "Did you find it?"
Li Che nodded, and used his hands to control the three people to dive down quickly.
……
In the nameless deep water.
Chen Qingzhou and Li Hao walked on the blue-white stone road with rare red corals on both sides.
The more Chen Qingzhou walked, the more confused he became. He asked in a low voice, "Where exactly is this place?"
Li Hao shook his head, "I don't know."
Chen Qingzhou said unhappily: "Aren't you the Great General of Jiuli? How dare you say that the Southern Barbarians are all yours."
He had been well prepared when he drilled through the ice, and as soon as he came in, he put all his strength into fighting the monster, but the result was this scene, which made him at a loss.
Li Hao was a little embarrassed. "This is my first time here too. Nanman is so big, how can I have been to all of it? Besides, this place may not even be Nanman."
Chen Qingzhou was startled, thinking about the origin of the coral and the geographical location of Nanman, "You...you mean, we are already in the East China Sea?"
"It's very likely," Li Hao nodded, "How else can we explain these corals? And this rich water."
Chen Qingzhou walked closer to the coral to take a look. He had just watched it from a distance and was not sure about its size. When he got close, he was shocked to find that the coral pile was more than 20 meters high. He was like a cat or dog in front of it.
He guessed that Li Hao had always been inland and might not know about marine life, so he asked, "Do you know the origin of this coral?"
