Chapter 2648 Conversation
The entire cave hall was silent except for the light coming from above. For a moment, it was terrifyingly quiet.
The sound of the thunderstorm just now seemed as if it had never happened.
Lan Caijie looked around and could not find any living people. The thunderstorm just lasted only a few seconds, but it destroyed everything in the cave hall again. The cave hall looked like it had experienced the destruction of the end of the world, without any life at all. The ancient city with the characteristics of the Western Regions was almost destroyed.
After their battles and destruction, the entire cave hall looked like it had been gnawed by a dog. In particular, there were holes everywhere on the ground. These were the places where flying centipedes and giant centipedes used to enter and exit. They were originally blocked by houses and buildings, so there was no problem. Now that the houses and buildings have been destroyed, these deep holes have been exposed, making the cave hall look like the nest of doomsday mutant animals.
Lan Caijie looked at everything in front of her and sighed in her heart. Although those buildings in the past had nothing to do with her aesthetic taste, they still looked a bit nostalgic. After staying in the Western Regions for many years, she was used to these architectural styles. Now that she witnessed their destruction with her own eyes, it would be impossible for her not to have any thoughts in her mind.
Fortunately, she also knew that these things in front of her were just a thought. If they were destroyed, they would be destroyed after a long time. It was only a matter of time. She didn't have much time to live, so she had to do it this way.
As for some people hiding in the caves, she didn't have the energy to chase them even if she wanted to. These people hid in the caves. If she wanted to wipe them out, it would not only take time, but she would also need to stay alive.
Unfortunately, after several fights and some forbidden techniques, she no longer had a chance to survive, and even after death, her body and soul would be destroyed, without even a trace left.
So after just sighing, he didn't think about anything else, but flashed to the wall of the cliff cave.
When he scanned with his spiritual sense, he was able to see the person hiding in the cave wall. He was a little speechless.
This guy can actually hide like this, won’t he come out automatically?
Lan Caijie didn't want to take action, so she pointed to the obviously different part of the mountain wall and said, "Do you think that if you hide like this, I won't find you, or do you think that you are hiding so well that no one will find you?"
Her body, due to the baptism of thunder and lightning, had injuries to her mouth and throat, and she had lost the ability to speak. Fortunately, as a cultivator, as long as her soul power and consciousness were still there, she could express herself through sound transmission.
In fact, Chen Mo had been feeling uneasy in his heart for a long time. He had felt that he had been discovered before, but there was no direct evidence to prove it, so he just pretended that he had not been discovered and hid himself well.
But after the battle, he found that the armored man came in front of him, and he immediately realized that his whereabouts had been seen clearly by someone.
Especially after he received Lan Caijie's words, he realized that the person in front of him was indeed the same as he guessed, and should be the beautiful woman from before. However, he really couldn't guess what method was used to achieve the exchange of bodies or souls.
The devouring method in the cultivation world is not like this, at least he can see it, or he can feel it when the soul is devoured. After all, when the soul is devoured, due to the struggle of the soul, and the fact that the devouring is not complete, some soul fragments will escape, which will cause some scattered soul power around when the soul is devoured.
Although these scattered soul powers will dissipate after a few hours and there will be no traces left, Chen Mo obviously did not feel this scattered spiritual power, so he naturally understood that the woman who devoured the soul of the armored man was definitely not the means he thought.
However, this also made Chen Mo's respect for this woman rise again. He was secretly on guard and had to be extra careful. He didn't know when he would be tricked when he went out.
Chen Mo's caution would be the same even if it was seen by other cultivators. In the world of cultivation, anyone who encountered a soul devourer or a cultivator with strong mental power would be much more careful.
Including Chen Mo himself, it's the same. With high mental power and strong spiritual sea of consciousness, there are reasons. Naturally, there are many means, and you never know when they will be used to catch people off guard.
Now, he saw the armored man standing not far from the cliff, transmitting messages to him. Naturally, he couldn't hide any longer. What should he do? He had to get out!
With one kick, he kicked away the rock that was blocking his exit and escaped from his hiding place. Of course, before he left, he had changed his face into that of a Han Chinese, an ordinary one with no distinctive features.
If you have a disguise necklace but don't use it, why wait for the right time to use it? Besides, he could also feel that even when the beauty was still alive, her strength was not so high that he couldn't even reach it, and she should not have reached the level of a Jindan cultivator.
Therefore, relying on a disguise necklace to disguise oneself is also a way to guard against some things.
Standing at the entrance of the cave, looking at the armored man in front of me, I really felt a little sad.
Previously, this armored man was dead in his hands! Anyway, he had killed him twice, but he didn't expect that this armored man could come back to life again and again. Now he is standing in front of him again. How can he explain this? If he believed in science, he didn't know how to explain the situation in front of him. However, as a cultivator, it is easy to explain this phenomenon.
"Senior, I don't know what to address you?" Chen Mo asked politely, as if the kick that sent the rock flying was not done by him.
Lan Caijie was speechless when she saw the man in front of her. He was secretly demonstrating just now, and now he was so respectful. Was this a case of using force first and then courtesy?
As for the name, Lan Caijie really didn't know how to answer. She hadn't told anyone her name for a long time. Perhaps, after a while, she would leave nothing behind in this world.
Sighing slowly, Lan Caijie said, "It seems that what I felt was right. You are also a cultivator!" After that, she observed Chen Mo carefully for a while, and then said, "As for my name, it has been a long time since I have been called by it. You can call me Madam Ru."
Lan Caijie felt nostalgic again when she thought of this title. After the young lady married the King of Xiye, the Han people from the Central Plains who followed her called her and her younger sister this way. Also, no matter who the young lady married, the two sisters would serve the man she married in the future, so the title was naturally Madam Ru.
After hearing this, Chen Mo did not express anything. He bowed respectfully and called her, "Hello, Madam Ru!"
"Hello too!" Lan Caijie asked slowly, "Since you already know my name, shouldn't you tell me what your name is?"
Lan Caijie didn't attack Chen Mo as soon as she saw him. Besides, she didn't have much ability to fight now. Although she could still fight, her soul and body had consumed too much energy. If she continued to fight, her life would be even shorter, and she might even die after fighting for a while.
It would be better to talk to Chen Mo and see what kind of person this guy is.
She had never met a cultivator before, and this was her first time meeting one, so she was naturally curious and wanted to hear from Chen Mo about what she was curious about. Why were there so few cultivators in this world?
"My name is Shen Zhou!" Chen Mo replied calmly. How could he tell the person in front of him his real name? Besides, the person in front of him didn't tell him his real name, so he wouldn't tell him his real name either.
Besides, cultivators have many methods. If there is some evil cultivator, it is not impossible for him to cast a curse.
Therefore, we must always be on guard against others!
"Shen Zhou?!" Lan Caijie muttered to herself. She didn't know how many years it had been. She hadn't heard the name of the Central Plains man for a long time. Was it five hundred years? No, it should be a thousand years. She hadn't seen anyone from the Central Plains since she entered this underground.
"I see that you are also a cultivator, so can you tell me, are there many cultivators?" Lan Caijie asked the question that had been hidden in her mind for thousands of years.
Chen Mo didn't expect Mrs. Ru to ask this question. It was really difficult to answer because he also wanted to know!
"There shouldn't be many people who practice Taoism on this planet. At least I've only met a few of them. Including you, there aren't even a handful of them." Chen Mo said. Thinking of Bian Xiu, the soul body at the bottom of the lake, and his master Ye Shang, there really aren't many of them.
"Planet, what planet?" Lan Caijie asked.
Chen Mo could only explain the meaning of the planet once.
"It turns out that the land we live on is a sphere!" Lan Caijie said with emotion. Although she couldn't figure out why it was a sphere, she still believed what Chen Mo said. After all, Chen Mo would not deceive herself about this matter.
"Then why are there so few cultivators on this planet? Like me, I have never met any other cultivator except you." Lan Caijie said.
Chen Mo was naturally the same, and told Lan Caijie some of his experiences, as well as some of his suspicions and inferences.
While listening, Lan Caijie sighed, "I never thought that thousands of years ago, cultivators migrated to other planets. So that's how it is. Many cultivators nowadays are just inheriting some heritage from the past." Thinking about what she had obtained, she realized that there was indeed a connection.
This actually solved many of Lan Caijie's doubts over the years. It turned out that there were cultivators, but they had all gone to other places.
Why do you want to leave? Because of the spiritual energy. Now this planet has gradually become a spiritual energy desert. It is difficult for cultivators to practice. What is the point of staying here?
Although some of them were inferred by Chen Mo himself, the facts should be roughly the same. In addition, the several opportunities that Chen Mo encountered also showed that for some reason, the entire cultivation sect migrated away from this planet.
