Chapter 134
The human world, the underworld, and the heaven (additional update 210 for the alliance leader’s romantic fish in the rain)
"Qiang!"
When the sword was sheathed, the two brothers, Mingcheng and Mingyue, were still in extreme panic and didn't even know what had happened.
In the ruins of the ancient city, the cold air covering hundreds of feet was completely chopped into pieces, including that big face.
This thing is a bit strange, like a ghost but not like it.
After flexing his hands and feet, Jiang Mu turned back to look at the middle-aged man with a smile on his face, looking forward to what big moves he had in store.
Just because he now has two divine wills, one in his body and one attached to the sword. In a sense, he is the most terrifying swordsman in the world.
But in fact it is of no use. In the age of the end of the Dharma, it is useless to show off one's power.
Jiang Mu plans to end it quickly and fulfill Chu Feiyue's last wish - huh?
The middle-aged man suddenly dispersed lightly, but the big round face that he chopped into pieces actually came back to life at this time. Well, this word is not quite right. It was originally a dead thing, so why should it be killed?
If you die, how can you talk about resurrection?
"No matter who you are, you can't leave today!"
A weird scream sounded, and the big round face pounced on him again, but was immediately chopped into pieces by Jiang Mu's divine will, rolled up with a long sword!
But something was wrong, because the big round face immediately revived again, and in this way, it actually looked a bit like the Blood River Demon Lord.
Hey, don’t tell me, long time no see, I miss you a little.
"Hahaha! You can't kill me. Now the rules of this world have changed. The ancient immortal Third Nuo has arrived early. Hahahaha! A bunch of idiots. When the real weirdness starts to revive, none of you can escape!"
In the big round face, there was still a voice shouting wildly.
Jiang Mu frowned slightly, how crazy you are, your ancestor Blood River Demon Lord is more humble than you.
But having said that, without the sword in hand, it is indeed difficult to destroy this thing. An ordinary long sword can't do it, even Chu Feiyue's rusty sword.
In addition, what did this guy say that the third promise of the ancient immortal arrived early?
Seeing the big round face resurrected again and again, Jiang Mu got really impatient. First he chopped it into pieces like lightning, and then released twenty rays of divine will, forming a big net of divine will, and chopped up the big round face.
The face was packed up and taken away, directly to the divine iron coffin.
Then, there was nothing Jiang Mu could do. This guy was like a thin layer of the first frost and snow in autumn, brushed away and gone.
Jiang Mu was still uneasy, so he looked carefully and found that it was gone.
What about the promised immortality?
"Wait a minute, this is the breath of the essence gained from wiping out the Blood Demon, but it's too weak."
Jiang Mu was thoughtful.
After destroying the blood demon released by that thing underground, you can get a piece of pure essence. After fusion, it will be a great supplement to the divine mind, divine soul, and even his divine will.
But normally speaking, now under the cover of the fourth immortal talisman, not to mention the blood demon, even the blood grasshopper cannot jump out.
"Then where did this spirit come from?"
Jiang Mu couldn't understand it very much. It couldn't have been deliberately released by that thing underground.
To tell a joke, there are people all over the street giving out spiritual stones, which have the same nature.
How precious is the soul.
He couldn't figure it out for the moment, so Jiang Mu stopped thinking about it. His divine will returned to the human body. Looking at the ancient city again, there was no trouble with the big round face, and even the breath was much calmer. At this time, a strong wind blew up, and countless flying sand fell down.
, it is estimated that when the wind stops, this ancient city will be completely buried underground.
"Do you two know what that thing was just now?" After leaving the ruins of the ancient city, Jiang Mu and Ming Cheng returned together. He asked his question. After a thousand years, the changes in this world have been great.
"It should be a ghost, right?" Mingcheng was not sure, "My junior sister and I have been down the mountain for several years and have seen many ghosts, but this is the first time we have seen it. Speaking of which, this time the two of us underestimated the enemy and rushed in
, thanks to the help of seniors, I am so ashamed that my seniors are coming, why don’t seniors rest here for two days, maybe my seniors can clear up the confusion for seniors. "
"Okay." Jiang Mu agreed happily. Now he was really curious, especially when it came to the third promise of the ancient immortal, he did not dare to despise it.
When the three of them returned to the small border town, it was already evening, and they didn't cause much movement, except for the people from the Wild Wolf Gang who escaped without a trace.
The number of people in the city was also nearly 30% less than yesterday. Many pedestrians on the street were passing by in a hurry, not daring to stay for a moment longer.
Jiang Mu didn't bother to pay attention and occupied the tavern of the Wild Wolf Gang to fill his stomach first.
The cook in the tavern also disappeared, so the three of them had to do it themselves. They had just prepared a sumptuous banquet when they heard a gust of wind blowing by, making the doors and windows rattle, and someone could vaguely be heard sobbing.
And the originally cool night turned out to be a bit like winter.
"What's happening here?"
Jiang Mu asked while chewing on an elbow.
Mingcheng looked solemn, "It's not good, there are also hundreds of ghosts walking at night here."
"Hundred Ghosts Night Parade?"
Jiang Mu is quite curious. In the world of immortality a thousand years ago, there really were no ghosts, because after death, the soul was either captured by the devil, wiped out by the wind and evil, or directly swallowed by external demons.
.
How can it be like now? There are no more demonic monks, no more Gangfeng, Yin evil spirits, and no external demons. This is the happy home of ghosts.
"Yes, a hundred ghosts walk at night, but there are too many ghosts. On some specific days, or for some special reasons, they come out of the underworld to get some air, relax, miss the human world, and take a look.
My own relatives and descendants, but humans and ghosts have different paths, so even if they come with good intentions, they will scare the living people half to death."
"My master said that a hundred ghosts walking at night and old ghosts resurrecting are the harbingers of the coming troubled times. In the five years since my junior sister and I came down the mountain, we have seen hundreds of ghosts walking at night hundreds of times."
"Hundreds of times, such an exaggeration? What is the other underworld?"
"Is this an exaggeration? Senior, if you knew that in this world, no one has really died since the beginning of the Second End of Law 1,200 years ago, you would know how terrifying this is."
"As for the underworld..."
"Wait a minute," Jiang Mu suddenly stopped Ming Cheng, "What do you mean, no one has really died since the beginning of the second apocalypse. What do you mean?"
"What else can it mean? It means that the dead will not die." Mingyue interjected. There was a cold wind blowing outside. She burned a small stove there, and the water in it was boiling. She picked up a piece of mutton with her chopsticks and rolled it in.
, the aroma comes out.
Not only that, she also put all kinds of green vegetables and dried vegetables into them according to categories like a mouse. She took a bite and sweated, and was blown by the cold wind, so cool.
Jiang Mu deeply suspected that when Mingyue was preparing meals in the afternoon, he predicted that there would be a night of hundreds of ghosts tonight, so he made preparations in advance.
Alas, he didn't know what to say.
"Why don't dead people die?"
"Because after the soul leaves the body, it will gradually evolve and become stronger. The memories of the life are still there. Senior, what is the difference between this and living?"
"So in the past twelve hundred years, the souls of people who have died, no matter what the method of death, are still there. Even if they are shattered, there are still some memory fragments that can be reunited. And some
The soul will grow into a yin god. If there are too many yin gods, it will affect the surrounding environment. If a living person enters, even if he does not die, he will have to shed his skin."
"In view of this, I, the great ancestor of the Qin Dynasty, chose to suppress the fate of the country by myself, and formed an underground underworld to accommodate those immortal ghosts. However, for thousands of years, mortals in the world have been born and died, and the people in the underworld have been born and died.
The place is almost full.”
"So every time a dynasty changes, the new dynasty will open up the underworld again to accommodate the immortal ghosts. So far, there have been four levels of underworld."
"We all know that something is wrong, but we don't know what is wrong. Even my Fuyun Taoist Palace can only treat headaches and pains. If things continue like this, unless the world is dead and no new people are born, otherwise, this
The whole world will become a ghost."
"Of course, even if all living people in the world are immortal, in another thousand years, the underworld will no longer be able to suppress it, ghosts will live under the sun, and the human race will perish. That's it."
Mingcheng's words were very helpless, but Jiang Mu could feel the cold sweat all over his body.
"Can't ghosts be reincarnated?"
"No, because there is no way to erase their memories. A newborn baby has complete memories. Seniors know how terrifying that is."
"So this matter is strictly prohibited. The ghost messengers in the underworld, the imperial emperor in the human world, the government, my Fuyun Taoist Palace, and the Yangshen in the heaven are all investigating this matter strictly. However, the soul is immortal.
Even if it is chopped into pieces, there is no other deterrent method except making the ghost become more vicious."
Jiang Mu understood that this was indeed very difficult. All kinds of powers could not really kill the ghosts. The reason was that the fourth immortal talisman destroyed and decomposed all the extraordinary powers of the physical body.
Even if the warrior's boiling Qi and blood are regarded as the ultimate sun, they cannot withstand the entire world and the environment. No matter how many times they are destroyed, the ghosts will still slowly recover.
"In this way, since the Second End of the Dharma, in the twelve hundred years of the human world, not only the souls of mortals are immortal, but all immortal cultivators are also not dead. Their physical bodies will age with the passage of time, but their spiritual thoughts are stronger than
Mortal souls are stronger and have a higher starting point, where have they gone?"
"Become a Yang God, a very powerful Yang God. Different from the Yang Gods like us who still have physical bodies, they are very strong, so most of them went to the sky and created a spirit based on pure divine thoughts there.
The world is what I call the heaven. In fact, my Fuyun Taoist Palace also has a small spiritual world on it. I have been there once, and it is so magnificent that being in it makes you forget to leave."
"Of course, there are still some cultivators of Yang Shen who have gone to the underworld. They are constantly looking for ways to eliminate souls, but apart from constantly creating more violent and more vicious ghosts, it seems that there is no better progress so far."
Jiang Mu was silent. He smelled the smell of a huge conspiracy. This was definitely the work of those underground things.
Such a world is actually very hopeless, with no hope of death. The dead will encroach on the territory and interests of the living, until eventually, the world will turn into a ghost country, with weird things everywhere.
Jiang Mu was completely unprepared for such an end-game.
In a sense, it was countless times more terrifying than the end of the law that he had worried about before.
