Return of the Ancient Gods

"What's going on? Why can the Taichu Mingjing still be used?" Chu Nan was puzzled.

After falling into the Death Canyon, his true energy was sealed, and he could only use the magic skills combined with the power of black energy. This already made Chu Nan full of confusion, but now it made him even more puzzled.

Chu Nan had tried the Lingxi Finger, Phoenix Technique and Kunpeng Technique, and originally thought that the "Taichu Mingjing" was the same, but he never expected to make such an unexpected discovery.

"Could it be that the old man taught me the magic technique?" Chu Nan thought, shaking his head. Although he felt gloomy when he got this technique, and the terrifying power that erupted in the battle at Luofengpo was very similar to the magic technique, there was still an essential difference.

"Death Canyon, the devil, the Taichu Mingjing, and the mysterious old man, what is the connection between them?"

Not long after, the corpse bird that was knocked down by Chu Nan flew up again, piecing together the scattered bones, and it seemed that it had not suffered any serious damage.

"It's really strange that it's still okay even though its bones were broken into pieces!" Chu Nan sighed and jumped onto the back of the Corpse Bird without thinking, urging Soul Silence to attack it.

"I don't believe that soul attacks are useless to you?"

The soul shock cleansed the corpse bird's body, but it still did not show any abnormal behavior. Instead, it showed anger and flew with Chu Nan into the depths of the black fog, ready to let the black fog corrode him completely.

"It's really strange. It has no flesh and blood, no soul, but it still has a trace of consciousness?" Chu Nan didn't waste his efforts. He carefully observed the body of the bird corpse. There was a little black air remaining in the white skeleton.

"Could it be that this black energy gave life to this corpse bird and constituted its original power?"

In order to verify this hypothesis, Chu Nan prepared to absorb the black air from the corpse bird. After absorbing a little bit, the corpse bird, which had been ineffective against all previous attacks, immediately showed a look of fear and made a move to surrender to Chu Nan.

At this point, Chu Nan stopped his hand and let it take him to the other side of the hill which was relatively gentler.

"That's true. I don't know what kind of strange energy this is. Seeing that this corpse bird is not very intelligent, it is difficult for it to answer my questions."

Chu Nan rode the Corpse Bird to the other side and stopped at a higher position on the hillside.

The black fog here is thin, so it is easier to let Little Phoenix and Little Bai out so that they can gradually adapt to the black fog.

"I plan to take you to explore this Death Canyon and seek opportunities, but the prerequisite is that you have to adapt to the environment here."

"You are such a monster that even the Death Canyon can't kill you.

Since you can absorb the black air of the Death Canyon, we will sign a contract with you. Even if you can't adapt, you can get some feedback from it, so it shouldn't be a big deal if you take it slowly."

The little phoenix said excitedly that he hid in the small exquisite world in time to save his life, and took the trouble to feel the wisp of black air on his body. Although it was not as easy as Chu Nan, he finally adapted to it, thus showing his great enthusiasm for this place.

"No, with Xiao Linglong World here, we won't have any big problems."

Chu Nan needed to revitalize his Great Chu Dynasty, and Little Phoenix himself had a blood feud to avenge, so he needed to quickly improve his strength. The Death Canyon was naturally the best choice;

Xiaobai wants to find the rare treasures here to restore his soul and original power.

The three quickly reached an agreement to explore Death Canyon!

However, when it comes to adapting to the environment here, Xiaobai is far inferior to Xiaofenghuang. He often has to hide back in the Xiaolinglong world to recuperate for a long time after staying outside for a while.

Chu Nan was also curious about this, but he didn't ask anything.

The three of them went deep into the Death Canyon together. They went down very slowly. At the beginning, they traveled dozens of feet in a month. In addition to the steep terrain, their strength was suppressed and their vision was limited. If they were not careful, they would fall into the bottomless abyss like a rock. In the process of going down the slope, they encountered many monsters with skeletons all over their bodies, like corpse birds.

The most serious thing is to adapt to the black air and recover the realm strength.

As they went deeper and deeper, the concentration of the black gas continued to increase. Even Chu Nan could hardly bear it, let alone Xiao Fenghuang and Xiao Bai.

Although Chu Nan has the thirteenth mysterious vein that can absorb the black air here, he also bears a lot of pressure while absorbing it. The black air contains a magical power that suppresses Chu Nan's soul, and he still needs to gradually adapt to it.

At the beginning, Xiao Fenghuang and the others could only enter Xiao Linglong's world to recuperate:

The little phoenix had better patience and stayed more than twice as long as the little white one. It also adapted faster and its strength slowly recovered.

With the help of the contract signed with Chu Nan, although the little phoenix cannot be as powerful as Chu Nan, it is not afraid of the black fog.

After trying for more than half a year, the three finally adapted to the environment of Death Canyon, moved freely, and were even able to use a little bit of strength.

This place is at least three or four thousand feet away from where they fell.

After walking down the steep slope, Chu Nan and the other two came to an area with thick black fog. Although they could withstand the black fog here, their visible range was still very narrow, only a few feet.

Faced with this strange and dangerous world, the three of them were on high alert, not daring to miss any disturbance.

Chu Nan and his two companions walked cautiously along the way. They found a small river not far below the hillside. The water of the river was gurgling. They didn't know where its source was, but it seemed that the river would lead to the deepest part of the underground Death Canyon.

When we were on the hillside, we encountered quite a few skeleton monsters, but when we got here it was extremely quiet. After hesitating for a while, Chu Nan decided to take a bath and relax here.

As soon as he entered the water, Chu Nan was shocked. He scooped up the mysterious river water with both hands, and was so excited that he could not speak.

"What a magical river water! All my hidden injuries healed in an instant!"

From the battle with Chu Xiu at Luofengpo to the present, Chu Nan has been injured countless times, and many times he has been injured to the core. Although he looks healed on the outside, the long-term injuries have eventually become a chronic illness and left a root cause.

But just after soaking in the river water, the disease was cured immediately as if it were a magic medicine.

At first they were a little worried about their safety, but seeing Chu Nan like this, the two little phoenixes couldn't help but come down to enjoy themselves. Their injuries were indeed healed, and their bodies were nourished:

"I wasn't sure before, but now that I've experienced it myself, I can be sure that this is the source of heaven and earth! It's a whole river!"

The Source Liquid of Heaven and Earth is an extremely rare spiritual material that is said to have been bred by the original power of the world when the heaven and earth were first created. A drop of it in the process of refining pills can improve the quality of the pills by several levels, and it has endless uses.

If this stuff was put outside, one drop would be enough to make people fight and bleed. Now there was a whole river of it, or even endless. The three of them didn't hesitate and drank it with their bellies opened.

"By the way, what is the origin of this Death Canyon? Could it be that it is really a corner that existed at the beginning of chaos?" Chu Nan's doubts became more and more serious.

"A strange environment, like a completely independent little world, strange black fog, weird skeleton monsters, and now there is also a river of heaven and earth source fluid..."

"Who knows? Anyway, this is a great opportunity!" The little phoenix said casually, drinking a bellyful of the source liquid of heaven and earth. He believed that once he completely refined and absorbed it, not only would his hidden injuries be healed, but his cultivation would also be able to recover quickly.

Just relying on the Heaven and Earth Source Liquid here, this trip to Death Canyon was a complete success.

"..."

Thinking of something, the little phoenix groped in the river for a while, and indeed found something better after a long time - the Heaven and Earth Source Crystal, the essence formed by the Heaven and Earth Source Liquid. A crystal the size of a pigeon egg was enough to brew a pool of Heaven and Earth Source Liquid.

Excited, Chu Nan took out the small exquisite world and prepared to collect some heaven and earth source liquid. At this time, a strange change occurred:

Countless monsters surrounded the two sides of the river, their eyes glaring, ready to attack at any time and tear Chu Nan and his men to pieces. Many of them were powerful enough to ignite the divine fire.

"It's not that no one uses the Heaven and Earth Source Liquid from this river, but our actions seem to have offended them..." Looking around, Chu Nan and the other two were frightened. Having fully experienced how powerful they were, they were a little at a loss for a moment.

When the battle between the two sides was about to break out, an old man walked out from the depths of the Death Canyon and shouted, driving away the angry monsters.

"Okay, stop it!"
