Beneath the Hidden Spirit Sect's square.
Su Tong did not hesitate at all, and directly let the Lei Jing Beast continue flying downwards.
The surroundings had already become pitch black, and nothing could be seen clearly.
However, the Lei Jing Beast's fur was now emitting a purple glow.
"I didn't expect you to also have an illuminating effect!"
Su Tong smiled.
"Roar!"
The Lei Jing Beast was quite dissatisfied and let out a roar at Su Tong.
But it still obeyed Su Tong's words and flew directly downwards.
As they delved deeper, Su Tong's expression became more and more solemn.
Who could have imagined that hidden beneath the Hidden Spirit Sect was the secret of the entire Northern Territory?
"We're almost there!"
Su Tong looked below, where the originally pitch-black area now had some brightness.
That was the night pearls embedded in the walls.
"Roar!"
A moment later, the Lei Jing Beast landed on the ground below.
"This is...Hidden Spirit Pellet?"
Su Tong looked at everything before him, also somewhat surprised.
In front of him were piles upon piles of Hidden Spirit Pellets.
Floating in mid-air.
Previously, he had thought the Hidden Spirit Sect's pellets had all been used up.
He didn't expect there to be tens of thousands of Hidden Spirit Pellets here.
"Well, I won't stand on ceremony then!"
Su Tong smiled and collected all the Hidden Spirit Pellets.
Then he walked towards the front.
Not far away was also a pile of spirit stones.
But Su Tong did not take them.
Spirit stones were no longer particularly important to him.
Even if there were tens of millions of spirit stones here, Su Tong didn't have much interest.
The price of one Hidden Spirit Pellet was at least hundreds of thousands of spirit stones.
And Su Tong had tens of thousands of Hidden Spirit Pellets in his hands.
"Those things should be in the front position, right?"
Su Tong did not take the spirit stones, but walked towards the front instead.
Soon, he saw clusters of light floating in front of his eyes.
This scene was the same as the god-level martial arts and god-level spirit techniques Su Tong had obtained in the Hidden Spirit Sect.
And the clusters of light before his eyes were also scrolls of god-level martial arts and spirit techniques.
"Sure enough, these things are all here!"
Su Tong looked at the clusters of light, his spiritual power surged out, enveloping one cluster.
Then with a little effort, the cluster disappeared.
And in Su Tong's hand, there was also a scroll.
"Gu Yi Huan Shu... Hmph, ordinary eighth-grade martial art!"
Su Tong looked at the text and also sneered coldly.
That's right, the scrolls in these clusters of light were not god-level martial arts.
But so-called ordinary eighth-grade martial arts.
Then Su Tong threw out the scroll, and it was immediately enveloped by a cluster of light, floating in mid-air.
And Su Tong grabbed another cluster again.
"Ice Blade Palm... ordinary seventh-grade spirit technique!"
Su Tong confirmed again.
These clusters of light were no different from the so-called "god-level" martial arts and spirit techniques Su Tong had seen before.
Some were even more powerful than before.
This was what Su Tong had learned from the Hidden Spirit Pillar.
In fact, the grading of martial arts and spirit techniques was not the so-called upper, middle and lower grades of god-level, spirit-level and ordinary.
Rather, it was divided into ordinary first-grade to ninth-grade, spirit-level first-grade to ninth-grade, and god-level first-grade to ninth-grade.
A total of twenty-seven grades.
In the Northern Territory, the circulating ordinary upper, middle and lower three grades actually corresponded to ordinary first, second and third grades.
The spirit-level upper, middle and lower three grades in the Northern Territory corresponded to ordinary fourth, fifth and sixth grades.
The remaining god-level upper, middle and lower three grades were the last ordinary seventh, eighth and ninth grades.
That is to say, all the martial arts and spirit techniques in the Northern Territory belonged only to the ordinary level in the Wen Tian Continent.
Therefore, in the Northern Territory, the martial arts of the upper spirit-level that those sect masters and elders cultivated were actually truly called ordinary sixth-grade martial arts.
This was why the strongest in the Northern Territory could only reach the Returning Void Realm.
Because they cultivated truly spirit-level martial arts, those in other territories could reach even higher realms.
That disciples of the Hidden Spirit Sect could reach the Returning Void Realm was also for this reason.
What they cultivated were martial arts of at least ordinary seventh-grade or above, which were now called god-level martial arts in the Northern Territory.
Think about it, the entire sect's disciples all started cultivating what Lu Zi Yin and the others called god-level martial arts. How could their strength not be powerful?
And all of this was because of one reason...the Hidden Spirit Sect had tampered with this realm in order to seal those powerful Blood Shadows.
Using an enormous formation, they had confined the heavens and earth of the Northern Territory.
"What a frightening means!"
Su Tong also sighed with emotion at this time.
No matter how small the Northern Territory was, it was still one of the five territories.
Yet someone had actually used a formation to confine the entire Northern Territory.
This confining formation limited the heaven and earth spiritual qi of the Northern Territory.
And the martial arts left behind were also the Hidden Spirit Sect's doing.
These martial arts, at their highest, were only ordinary ninth-grade.
They would not exceed this level.
Because once they exceeded this level, it was possible for powerful experts to break the formation from within the Northern Territory.
If the formation was broken, those Blood Shadows would possibly regain their freedom.
At that time, it would be a disaster for both the Northern Territory and the Wen Tian Continent.
"No wonder some powerful experts who left the Northern Territory never returned. This confining formation probably only allowed exit but not entry, right?"
Su Tong now also understood everything.
Those who had already left the Northern Territory had probably realized all of this.
So they did not come back.
Think about it, only after leaving the Northern Territory did they realize that the so-called god-level martial arts and spirit techniques they had cultivated for many years were actually only ordinary ninth-grade in the Wen Tian Continent.
How frustrating and infuriating that would be.
Moreover, the spiritual qi of this realm was confined, so even if they returned here, it would be useless.
"The richness of the spiritual qi in the outside world is probably similar to Hidden Spirit Island, right?"
Su Tong now looked forward even more to the outside world.
"What's this?"
At this moment, Su Tong discovered some lines carved on the wall.
Going closer for a look, Su Tong realized it was a map.
"This is a map of the Northern Territory. What do these dots represent?"
Su Tong carefully studied it for a while.
Before understanding: "These should be the locations where the Blood Shadows are sealed, the Hidden Spirit Pillars?"
Su Tong had not expected the locations where the Blood Shadows were sealed to be at the Hidden Spirit Pillars.
"The distance to several sects is quite close!"
The Hidden Spirit Pillars were at the center of the Northern Territory.
And the positions of the Crimson Rainbow Sect, Qi Mu Sect and other sects were all here.
"No, these are...formation eyes?"
Su Tong looked again and discovered some clues.
The distribution of these sects, if connected, actually formed a formation pattern.
"So people need to guard the formation eyes in order to seal those Blood Shadows!"
Su Tong, now also a third-grade formation master, understood at a glance.
This was also the secret behind Hidden Spirit Island appearing only once every few years.
"This way, all the powerful sects would choose to establish themselves here in order to get closer to Hidden Spirit Island, and thus achieve the effect of suppressing the Blood Shadows!"
Su Tong sighed with emotion.
So everything in the entire Northern Territory was actually under the Hidden Spirit Sect's control!

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
Explosive Plot Song Gua crossed over into another world, bringing along a whole crew of his doppelgangers—all of them mischief-makers. This was a world where everyone could choose a class. Song Gua became a "Bondweaver," capable of borrowing power, while his doppelgangers took on a wide variety of classes, covering just about everything. The number of doppelgangers grew day by day, each one a talented individual with a charming way of speaking. Under Song Gua's brilliant leadership, they would "greet" each other daily and engage in friendly "sparring," pulling off one major scheme after another on Earth. Sometimes they were bandits—stealing bosses, plundering mines, snatching resources. Sometimes they were saviors—descending like divine warriors to face world bosses threatening to massacre cities. Sometimes they even went undercover, infiltrating various major factions to stir up trouble from within, keeping their enemies constantly on edge. To prevent their doppelganger abilities from being exposed, Song Gua made them wear masks with mahjong tile patterns and don Taoist robes in various colors. "Remember, in front of outsiders, call me 'The Dice.'" "Got it! Boss!" "Not 'Boss'—it's 'The Dice.' Think about the vibe, pay attention to the vibe." "Yes! Boss!" "For crying out loud..." From then on, whenever they appeared, they would have their own theme song playing: ~Hey~ paying respects at the mountain stronghold at night~ whose arm is draped over whose shoulder~ gather your courage and follow along...
