A few feet away, a ball of light was suspended in the air.
The light like the bright moon is shining dazzlingly, but the stone door in the meantime is like a silent night, cold and mysterious.
Yu Ye and Lai Mian stopped and watched.
Behind the two of them, Hong Yi, Gui Yuanzi, Shui Qin, Shui Xuan, as well as Meng Ba, Tian Juezi, Chihai and other Yanzhou monks stood in the distance. Under the light, everyone's expressions were clearly visible, but they all looked forward to the opening of the Netherworld Gate.
"The Gate of the Netherworld is the result of a restriction. It has a round shape and a square shape, or it may be the boundary between heaven and earth. The nine holes in the middle should be where the artifacts are stored."
Lai Mian expressed his opinion.
Ever since he chose to go outside the territory again, he felt relaxed. Once upon a time, Lai Tai was his only brother. Seventy years of following him through life and death made him choose Yu Ye this time.
"What you said makes sense!"
Yu Ye waved his sleeves, and there were nine more purple star stones on the ground.
Lai Mian's speculation is consistent with his idea. The hole in the stone gate should be left by the star stone. The nine star stones are like nine keys. You only need to insert them into the keyhole one by one to open the door to the netherworld. ..net
Yu Ye grabbed a star stone and was about to try it, when suddenly he heard Gui Yuanzi say -
"The artifacts are in order, you kid, don't make any mistakes!"
Artifacts in order?
Yu Ye looked at the star stone in his hand.
He has checked the star stone countless times and has never found any abnormalities.
But as Gui Yuanzi said, there must be a reason.
Then I heard Chihai say: "Hmph, if you don't know how to open it, why not hand over the star stone and let others do it for you!"
Who will do it for you?
Of course it's him, Chihai.
Yu Ye's eyes flashed and he looked at the star stone in his hand again. Looking around, there was still nothing to be found. He looked at Lai Mian next to him, who also had a confused look on his face.
"The Gate of Netherworld may be the restricted area of the Nine Palaces. Try it as I say!"
At the critical moment, Qingluo's words came from the sea of consciousness——
"The nine cave entrances, from top to bottom, from left to right, are D, Ren, B, B, E, Geng, Xin, Jia, Si. And the star stones are thrown out one by one from the heavenly stems..."
Yu Ye nodded repeatedly, grabbed the star stones with both hands and threw them out one after another.
In the blink of an eye, all nine star stones were inserted into the opening of the stone door.
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he has also studied the forbidden formation, he lacks flexibility. Fortunately, Qingluo's help made it so easy to open the Netherworld Gate.
But I heard Lai Mian say: "Is there something wrong?"
Yu Ye looked quickly.
The nine star stones were clearly visible, but there was no movement on the black stone door.
"Qingluo..."
"It shouldn't be wrong..."
Yu Ye was still confused, and there was an exclamation from behind——
"Everyone, let's see..."
Yu Ye quickly raised his head.
In the dark night sky, there were suddenly a few more lights, as if they were far away in the sky, but also close in front of us.
Starlight?
"The Six Stars of the South Dipper..."
"As expected, it's the Six Stars of the South Dipper..."
"Nandou appears, Netherworld opens..."
The stars are getting brighter and brighter, and their arrangement is similar to the Big Dipper, which is the so-called Southern Dipper. Just after all six stars appeared, the starlight suddenly multiplied and slowly rotated. The strange scene was very spectacular.
However, the gate to the netherworld has not been opened.
Everyone was staring at the Netherworld Gate and the stars in the sky. Yu Ye's eyes widened even more, expecting the magic to appear again.
After a moment, the rotating stars actually slowed down, and the starlight gradually dimmed, but there was still no movement in the Netherworld Gate.
"What's going on here……"
"Once the six stars of the South Dipper disappear, there is no hope of opening the Netherworld..."
"Why don't you ask some seniors of Lianxu for advice..."
"Hmph, please
Damn it, if I knew how to unlock the Netherworld, how could I be trapped until today? "
An expert in cultivating the void?
This is the first time the identities of the four masters have been confirmed!
Yu Ye looked at the stars that were about to disappear, and was also inexplicably stunned.
The nine star stones have all returned to their respective places. The six stars of the Southern Dipper are all present. But the door to the netherworld still cannot be opened. What is the reason?
"Yu Ye also has three artifacts. So far, no one knows the details. Could it be that he deliberately concealed it..."
"Yu Ye, don't dare to hide your secret..."
"Otherwise all your efforts will be in vain..."
"You cannot absolve yourself of the blame..."
Under Juezi's reminder and temptation, everyone started shouting.
Regarding the twelve artifacts and the nine star stones, everyone is familiar with them. With the deaths of Qiub, Birch and others, the other three artifacts became legendary existences. Although Yu Ye once sacrificed the Star Arrow, it suddenly appeared, and no one knows the details so far, let alone the true appearance of Xinghai and Purple Star.
And now that the matter has come to this, why hide it?
Yu Ye's heart moved, and he turned over his hand and took out a purple stone. It was a full circle larger than the previous star stone. It was the first artifact he got that year, the Purple Star. He looked at the stars in the sky, suddenly waved his arm and the Star Stone took action.
At this time, it happened that the stars were turning upside down.
A ray of purple starlight suddenly appeared, like a rainbow penetrating the sun, but it was a flying star rushing into the South Dou Star Array. The dim starlight burst out and shone, and all shone on the star stones hovering in the sky. At the moment when the six-point starlight converged, a lightning-like light refracted down.
Yu Ye's expression condensed and he muttered something silently: "Flying stars enter the South Dou, Nine Purples bloom into the underworld..."
The starlight streaked across the night sky, and suddenly reached the dark stone door. The stars were dotted and dazzling, and then there was a muffled sound, as if the barrier was shaking and the door to heaven and earth was opening...
"The underworld has opened, Lai is exploring the way——"
A figure flew up, and Lai Mian rushed forward impatiently.
"Brother Rai, wait a minute——"
Yu Ye shouted hurriedly.
But Lai Mian had already galloped several feet away and lifted off the ground. But amid the flickering light, the black stone door was still closed. He couldn't help being slightly startled and said in surprise: "Brother..."
At this moment, nine points of purple starlight shot out, "pop, pop" penetrating his body. He was still in the air, his body shaking like a fallen leaf, bright red blood flowing through his body, and then he rolled back like a waterfall, and suddenly disappeared in the strange light. Immediately afterwards, a loud "boom" was heard, and the stone door finally slowly opened...
"Haha, everyone please——"
Following Meng Ba's loud laughter, figures rushed forward one after another.
Yu Ye rushed out first, reached out to catch Lai Mian who fell, and looked up hurriedly, looking for the purple star he had just sacrificed.
After just a short delay, the night sky returned to its original darkness and silence. The six stars of the Southern Dipper and the purple star stone have also disappeared without a trace.
Who stole his treasure...
"Go quickly——"
In the chaos, someone was urging, and there seemed to be an inexplicable murderous intention approaching.
Yu Ye didn't dare to neglect, grabbed Lai Mian and flew up. There was a flash of light and the scenery changed. The imprisoned cultivation level seemed to be recovering, so he fell down and wanted to check Lai Mian's injury.
Conversation sounded——
"Why don't you leave, sister?"
Yu Ye put down Lai Mian and looked up.
Is this the long-awaited fairyland?
Where you are is a lush forest. Meng Ba, Tian Juezi, Chihai, Mu Qianli and many other companions have disappeared. Only four people, Gui Yuanzi, Hongyi, Shuiqin and Shuixuan, are standing a few feet away.
Not far behind him, between the steep mountain walls, was a black mist, which was the Netherworld Gate from which he came.
"Sister Cress, my sister will go with you."
"Senior brother and I have something to do, please take the first step, sister!"
"Why don't we go on a journey together? Who makes me like my sister?
Cackling! "
"Forget it, please——"
A gust of wind blew up, and the four people disappeared without a trace.
Gui Yuanzi left too?
Previously, he said that fate was close. At this point, fate is over...
Yu Ye couldn't think too much and hurriedly squatted down, but couldn't help but his legs softened and he slowly collapsed to the ground.
Lai Mian's eyes were tightly closed, his black face was glowing with gray, and his strong body had nine blood holes, but not a drop of blood could be seen around him, and he could not detect the slightest trace of life.
Those who open the underworld, die!
Shen Jizi's last words came true. Who would have thought that the first person to die would be Lai Mian.
So many people deserved to die, why was it him?
Opening the door to the underworld, he actually sacrificed human blood. Could this be Shenjizi's advice? Or did he make a mistake in the wild and fail to understand the mystery?
Yu Ye put his hands on his head and sighed heavily. He blamed himself and refused to give up. In other words, a little distressed.
He blamed himself for not stopping Lai Mian.
He couldn't bear to let go of an old friend who had been entangled with him for decades and died silently.
What hurts him is the love he owes, which can never be repaid...
"Ha ha!"
Suddenly there was laughter.
Yu Ye looked up.
Deep in the lush forest, a figure suddenly appeared, followed by two, then three...
Yu Ye's heart sank slightly, and he turned to look at Lai Mian's remains, then took out a ring and put it inside.
"Yu Ye, as long as you hand over the remaining two artifacts and the inheritance of the divine machine, you can win the trust of all fellow Taoists and join hands to explore the fairyland from now on. Wouldn't it be wonderful?"
Meng Ba appeared ten feet away, followed by Chi Hai, Tian Jue Zi, Hua Yue, Huang Zhuo, and Fang Xiu Zi. Chili, E'an, Pingyangzi, Wengui and others also appeared from the left and right, and actually blocked the fog-shrouded Netherworld Gate. All seventeen monks from the six families showed up, except for Mu Qianli and twelve other family monks.
Yu Ye slowly stood up and gently clenched his fists.
With all his strength, he was safe and sound. However, his cultivation still hasn't recovered as before. It seems to be caused by Qi, and he may be able to use 30% of his magic power. However, the situation suddenly occurs and he is trapped again.
"Did you kill Mu Qianli?"
"Haha, I'm busy avoiding the four masters of Xuzhou Refining. Those family monks may have run away. You should think about your own situation!"
Meng Ba’s laughter was still loud.
They were all busy avoiding the four masters of refining the void. After the four masters left, they came back in groups, just to deal with him in the wild.
"Master Meng, you and I formed an alliance in Qishan, and we went to a foreign land together. How could you bully me like this?"
"The Immortal Realm is no longer Qishan, you should understand how time has changed!"
"Although times have changed, the past cannot be changed. Since you want my artifact and inheritance, can you let me die in peace?"
"Haha, what do you want to know?"
"Everything in the past three hundred years..."
