Chapter 734: Netherworld
Outside Yinshan Village, there was a dead silence.
After two full hours, the beast tide finally retreated, leaving behind a ruin and a mess.
Due to the advantage of the terrain, Zhuo Yunxian blocked the entrance of the valley, and was as powerful as a man who could not open the door, forcing hundreds of ghost beasts to the outside, minimizing casualties in Yinshan Village to the greatest extent.
In the village, Ning Fengji turned to Wei Dongli and said with a wry smile: "Old Wei, I believe what you say now."
"What's the matter?"
Wei Dongli couldn't help but be stunned, with a confused look on his face.
Ning Fengji said seriously: "This person has a good face and is not like a treacherous person. He should really have no malice. Moreover, with the other party's strength, it is easy to kill someone and silence him. You have no chance to be lucky."
"Face!?"
Wei Dongli said with a strange expression: "Brother Ning, when did you learn to look at the face?"
Ning Fengji gave the other party a blank look and said undeniably: "It's just an ordinary qi-seeking technique... These are not the key points, the most important thing is that this person has a good character. He is an outsider and could have stood by and watched without caring about our life or death, but he chose to stand up, which shows that this person has righteousness. Being able to meet such a person in this underworld is also our fate."
"He is really as good as you said?!"
Wei Dongli looked at Ning Fengji in surprise. He had known him for many years, but this was the first time he heard him admire him so much.
Ning Fengji's eyes were slightly solemn: "This person is really very good. Not only does he have a strong aura in his body, but he also has the light of merit and a wheel of wisdom. I have lived for so many years and have never seen such a person with such a strong fortune. Maybe he can change our destiny."
"you……"
Wei Dongli wanted to speak but stopped, so he shook his head helplessly: "Forget it, you say that these are too illusory, so don't think too much."
"Um."
Ning Fengji nodded to show his understanding: "The beast tide has receded, Yinshan Village has been saved. Let's thank them for their life-saving grace first."
After saying that, the two of them quarreled to leave the village entrance.
...
The beast tide subsided, Zhuo Yunxian stood with his sword, standing quietly in place, showing a thoughtful look on his face.
During the battle just now, Zhuo Yunxian heard the villagers shouting "Mysterious Beasts". These so-called "Mysterious Beasts" were very strange. After the killing, they not only left no traces, but instead made the surrounding environment full of chill.
Strictly speaking, this shouldn't be called, shouldn't it?
Just as Zhuo Yunxian was pondering, everyone gradually surrounded him and looked at him in awe.
Wei Dongli walked forward and bowed solemnly, "Thank you for not taking grudges and saving us again. Please accept a bow from me."
Zhuo Yunxian opened his body sideways and held the other party and said, "I'm so kind, I'm just a simple task."
This is the truth. For Zhuo Yunxian, hundreds of ghost beasts are nothing. The battles he has experienced are often hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars.
However, the more grand Zhuo Yunxian showed, the more ashamed Wei Dongli felt, and felt ashamed.
Zhuo Yunxian's face was calm and he said again: "Old man, I heard you call these ghost beasts just now? What is the origin?"
Wei Dongli said bitterly, "Your Excellency, you don't know that this is the dark beast derived from the Nether Sea, which is almost endless. Every decades when the tide of the Styx River, a large number of dark beasts will surge into the underworld and become beast tides."
Immediately, Ning Fengji took over the conversation and said, "Originally, the last tide has only been a few years, but I don't know why it is because the tides of the Styx River are getting more and more frequent, which has led to a disaster."
Wei Dongli agreed and said, "Yes, we have you here to rescue us, so we have escaped a disaster. Other places have probably become ruins. I just don't know what the situation in Yinshan City is."
The Tides of the Styx…The Tides…
Zhuo Yunxian looked a little dazed and couldn't help but be stunned on the spot. When he heard the word "Styx", he felt a bad premonition in his heart. He entered the gate of all worlds, and could he travel to the underworld!?
After pausing, Zhuo Yunxian said in a deep voice: "Old man, my name is Zhuo Yunxian, who comes from the outside world, but I really have no malice. I just passed by here and wanted to ask you about something, can you talk about it?"
Wei Dongli looked at the other party with a complicated expression, then sighed and nodded: "You have saved me twice, and I should treat you with courtesy. Please come in and talk about it."
As he said that, Wei Dongli signaled to the surrounding villagers and asked everyone to clean up the place so as not to be too dirty.
...
In the stone hut, the two of them sat opposite each other.
After a while of greeting, Zhuo Yunxian asked, "Old man, what is this place?"
"The Netherworld."
"The Netherworld!?"
Zhuo Yunxian's face changed slightly: "The world among the three realms of heaven, earth and man!?"
"It seems that you know a lot?"
Wei Dongli looked at Zhuo Yunxian deeply: "There were no strangers here, only ghosts, so you shouldn't have appeared here."
"No newborn!?"
Zhuo Yunxian was slightly stunned and looked at the other party curiously: "What are you? Aren't you alive?"
Wei Dongli shook his head, and a bitterness appeared on the corner of his mouth: "We are no longer considered living people when we live in this underworld."
“…”
Zhuo Yunxian couldn't help but remain silent. He had thought Wei Dongli and others were a little strange. The other party was obviously a human race, but their yin energy was strong in their bodies and there was no chance of vitality.
Zhuo Yunxian thought it was just because of the living environment, but he didn't expect that the other party was not a "living person".
...
Through a brief exchange, Zhuo Yunxian had a rough understanding of the environment he was in and the situation here.
It is the edge of the underworld. Various ethnic groups live here, and human race is one of them. However, the creatures living in the underworld have long been assimilated by the underworld environment, so Wei Dongli feels that he is neither human nor ghost.
However, Zhuo Yunxian got more information from Wei Dongli's words. It turned out that the so-called "gate of all worlds" is actually the underworld, the place where the heavens and all worlds reincarnation are.
Legend has it that before ancient times, there were three realms in heaven and earth... The top was the thirty-three heavens, the bottom was the nine underworlds, and the middle was the mortal realm, where 100 million ordinary creatures lived together.
The creatures who practice and attain enlightenment will fly to the upper realm and enjoy the Pure Land. The creatures who die and disappear will disappear into the underworld. Among them, the largest force in the heaven is called the Heavenly Court, which is equivalent to the mortal dynasty. The largest force in the underworld is called the Underworld, which commands the Nine Nethers and controls the six realms of reincarnation.
Therefore, the heaven and the underworld are the centers of the movement of heaven and earth, one yin and one yang, one clear and one turbid, one up and one up and one up.
Unfortunately, after countless catastrophes, the heavenly palace collapsed and the underworld was destroyed. Now the underworld has become a place of chaos.
