Chapter 253 She is also smart sometimes

He retracted his gaze and looked in the direction that was as dark as a black wall in front of him: "This is the only way to get through this area safely."

After saying that, he held her hand tightly and said, "We're going in. Hold me tight, don't let go."

"Oh." She replied, holding his hand tightly.

To be honest, she was a little scared. The area ahead was so dark that it made her feel uneasy.

She swallowed and followed him inside.

As soon as she stepped in, the surroundings suddenly became extremely dark, and she couldn't see her hand in front of her face. Not only was it dark, but it was also so quiet that she could hear her own heartbeat and breathing. She finally understood what the world looked like in the eyes of a completely blind person.

A strong fear rose in her heart, and she held the hand even tighter, as if the hand holding her was her lifeline.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

A clean and cool voice entered her ears, and she felt a little relieved.

The next moment, she felt a faint light coming from her side, and she looked over subconsciously. She could actually see the person next to her clearly.

It was as if the light was coming from him. Then she raised her other hand that was not being held and looked down. She could actually see it.

Her hands were glowing.

He looked down at himself and was surprised again.

She herself was glowing.

Looking around, it was still pitch black.

She followed Mo Xinglan's footsteps, but didn't know where she was going.

"Xingxing, are you sure you can find the way? Is it this direction?" She looked up at him.

He glanced at her: "Probably."

"..." What do you mean "should be"? It's pitch black here, I can't see anything, it will be troublesome if I go in the wrong direction, okay?

Seeing her frightened face, he explained: "The direction Xuan Li pointed to should not be wrong."

Now she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But she immediately became confused again: "How did Xuan Li know the direction to enter the Demon Realm? Isn't it the great sword that suppressed the Demon Lord Yu You?"

Big sword? Why does it sound so tacky?

"Xuan Li is the...holy object of the Demon Realm." It's not a tacky big sword.

"Oh, okay." She nodded and didn't ask any further questions.

He looked around the dark area and asked, "Why is it so dark here? What's going on here?"

Mo Xinglan stared at the dark area ahead: "Demonic energy and miasma."

After hearing his answer, she couldn't believe it: "Can the devil energy and miasma alone be so black? I remember the devil energy was black and red."

He lowered his head and glanced at her: "It's not the demonic energy or miasma that makes this place so dark, but because this is a barrier space that completely isolates the outside world, and there is no light inside, so it's like this."

"Is that so?" She nodded, and then she remembered something the next second, "Will there be sunlight after passing this barrier space? Will it still be pitch black?"

"No, after passing this barrier space, it is the Demon Realm. The Demon Realm is not in Hualing Continent, but in another spatial world. There is sunshine, mountains and rivers, flowers, plants and trees just like in Hualing. The only difference is that there are no humans there." He answered patiently.

Chujiu was stunned for a moment and asked, "Then, is there any spiritual energy, are there any monsters?"

"There are also demon beasts that rely on spiritual energy to cultivate, and demon beasts that rely on demonic energy to cultivate."

"Huh..." She patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

After thinking for a while, he asked in confusion: "Hey, that's not right. You just said that the Demon Realm has sunlight just like Hualing, but isn't the demonic energy black and red? Floating in the air, shouldn't it be dark red under the sun? Where does the sunlight come from?"

He glanced at her and said, "According to what you said, there is still spiritual energy in Hualing's air. Why can the sunlight still shine through? Moreover, strictly speaking, demonic energy and spiritual energy coexist. Wherever there is spiritual energy, there is demonic energy."

"Demonic energy... spiritual energy..." she murmured in a low voice.

Suddenly her eyes lit up and she looked up at him: "Isn't it just like yin and yang?"

Mo Xinglan was a little surprised when he heard this, then nodded: "Almost."

She was smart sometimes.

Chujiu smiled proudly. Then he asked, "But, since you said that spiritual energy and demonic energy are like yin and yang, then why was the spiritual energy so dense when we were in Piaomiao Domain before? Logically, the demonic energy should also be very dense. Why did I only see it in the Demon Forest and the Crescent Forest in the secret realm?"

I have to say that the demonic energy in those two places is indeed very strong, so strong that the entire forest is dim.

However, the evil spirit in the Demon Forest was caused by Yu You, and according to those old men, the Crescent Forest was definitely man-made.

Mo Xinglan's eyes were calm: "The spiritual energy in Piaomiao Domain is so rich because there is a large spiritual gathering formation in the sky."

"Spirit Gathering Formation? A formation that gathers spiritual energy?"

"Yes." He replied, "The Spirit Gathering Array can gather external spiritual energy into the area covered by the array, and it will stop only when it reaches a certain level."

Chujiu frowned: "Isn't this unethical? We are all cultivating spiritual energy. He set up a spirit gathering array to absorb all the spiritual energy. What about those outside the array?"

Mo Xinglan shook his head: "Hualing's spiritual energy is rich. The spiritual energy gathered by the spiritual gathering array above the Misty Domain is just a drop in the bucket, but it is richer and purer than the spiritual energy in the outside world. Not only will it not affect the balance of Hualing's spiritual energy and demonic energy, it can also help cultivators improve their cultivation faster."

"Oh, I get it."

Although Hualing's spiritual energy is rich, it is mixed with demonic energy and other forces of heaven and earth. It is not pure enough and is very scattered. It cannot be seen with the naked eye, but sunlight can naturally pass through it.

But there is a gathering spirit array in the sky above Piaomiao Domain, which gathers all the spiritual energy, making it more dense and clean, for practitioners to practice. When the spiritual energy is dense to a certain degree, it becomes materialized, so it can be seen by the naked eye, and the sun can hardly pass through it, so the sky of Piaomiao Domain is always hazy during the day.

Suddenly she thought of something and pouted: "Why not set up a few more spirit gathering arrays?"

Wouldn't it be nice for everyone to enjoy the clean and pure spiritual energy together? It doesn't have much impact anyway, so wouldn't it be a bit stingy to just do one?

Mo Xinglan took a deep breath, paused for a moment before exhaling, his tone filled with helplessness: "Do you think the spirit gathering array is so easy to set up? Does everyone in the family know how to do it?"

He paused and said, "Although the space occupied by Piaomiao Domain is insignificant compared to the entire Hualing, it is very large for people and can accommodate tens of thousands of people. A spirit gathering array that can accommodate tens of thousands of people cannot be set up by a powerful person who has cultivated the array to an extremely high level and can last for a long time."

"Also, every formation has a core. The larger the formation, the higher the level and quantity of natural treasures needed at the core. Otherwise, the formation will be unstable, let alone last forever."

"Oh, okay." She pursed her lips.

She didn't understand and was just thinking too much.

She thought that since he understood the formation, others also understood it.

It seems that she has a preconceived idea.

excuse me.
