As expected, Shen Zhining and Gu Jinge both sighed.
"So you also think that His Majesty is the Taoist Happy Immortal," Shen Zhining didn't like the result, "I can tell you responsibly, he is not."
Yes, as a time traveler, oh! That shouldn't be said now.
As a cultivator from a foreign land, she knew that Xu Mochen had the same origin as her.
But the words of Tu Dao Xiaoyao Immortal are native to the world of ten directions.
As for why it is so special, this is not a question that Shen Zhining should consider.
Who would have thought that when she said this, Li Xi agreed very much: "You are right, I think so too.
People around me think they are the same, but I don't think so.
But I don’t hide it either. I think Xu Mochen and Tu Dao have an unusual connection. "
No one can object to this.
Shen Zhining also acquiesced: "That's true, so when you see the results of the monster world, you are also thinking about your own affairs."
"That's right," Li Xi smiled again, "Xu Mochen went to the world of demon beasts and solved the mess left by Tu Dao Xiaoyao Immortal back then.
Then we will naturally wonder if he can solve our situation if he comes to the underworld. "
Shen Zhining clasped her hands together: "Then you have to tell us what your situation is."
Unexpectedly, Li Xi shook his head: "It's not that I don't say it, but that I don't know either.
In the underworld, time and space are not special, so the earlier batch of immortal cultivators have all fallen.
Until our generation, we don’t know the specific method of how the underworld was isolated in the first place. "
"Then you should know why the underworld has to be isolated, right?" Shen Zhining asked, this is a very crucial matter.
Li Xi's expression became serious: "Of course, because it is a real hell."
Shen Zhining couldn't help but sneer, and Gu Jinge couldn't help but ask: "We have the underworld and the underworld, so is there another hell?"
It sounded funny, but Li Xi didn't laugh.
Not only did he not smile, but his face darkened.
Seeing him like this, Shen Zhining and Gu Jinge kept silent.
In the room, the only sound that could be heard was the slight clinking of tea cups.
But obviously, everyone was not thinking about drinking tea, but waiting for Li Xi to sort out his emotions.
"The predecessor of the underworld..." After a long time, Li Xi slowly spoke, "You should be able to guess that it is a place that specializes in dealing with the remnants of the souls of soldiers who have been cultivating immortals.
It's said to be dealing with it, but actually it's to make the most of those remaining souls. "
As expected, the two girls were not surprised at all.
"When it comes to the matter, it involves the history of Shifang World," Li Xi smiled bitterly, "There are many twists and turns here, and I can't figure them out.
Let’s just talk about the most direct result, that is, everyone knows that most of us immortal cultivators cannot escape the catastrophe of annihilation. "
It was this thing again, Gu Jinge couldn't help but frown.
Shen Zhining comes from modern times and accepts the concept of impermanence of life. She has no idea of immortality. Instead, she nodded: "That's a normal phenomenon."
"Normal?" Li Xi was very surprised, "How can it be normal.
Those who cultivate immortality, the purpose of cultivating immortality is not for immortality.
If that can't be achieved, what's the use of us cultivating immortals. "
This question... Shen Zhining really couldn't understand it, so she could only smile: "If you become an immortal, you can live many years longer than a mortal."
"But in the beginning, we didn't have the calamity of annihilation. We can live as long as we want," Li Xi's eyes widened, "Do you understand that or not?"
In this way, Shen Zhining understood.
The same goes for Gu Jinge. She was originally a mortal princess and didn't expect to live forever.
Having died once more, I don’t have much attachment to the eternity of life.
When Li Xi said this, both of them felt strange.
To put it bluntly,
It's like a playboy who suddenly becomes strict with him, and he will naturally be a lot dissatisfied.
It's just that on this topic, the benevolent sees benevolence and the wise see wisdom.
Li Xi did not dwell on such philosophical topics. He turned to the main topic: "We studied the remnants of the immortal cultivators, and one of them was to think about whether we could connect the intermittent inheritance.
The other is hoping to find a way to break the catastrophe of annihilation. "
Shen Zhining listened: "That's a good idea, but I'm afraid the subsequent changes will exceed your plan."
Li Xi nodded heavily: "Yes.
It happened almost 30,000 years ago, someone came to the underworld and participated in this experiment. "
"Who?" Shen Zhining first thought of Tu Dao Xiaoyao Immortal.
But he quickly denied it. If it were him, Li Xi would not say "someone".
Sure enough, Li Xi continued: "It's not Xiaoyao Immortal, it's not him.
Who exactly they are, we don’t know yet.
However, we have been investigating over the years and found that this person left a legacy. "
Shen Zhining and Gu Jinge immediately concentrated their attention: "Are they from the underworld?"
Li Xi nodded: "There is a lady named Taiyin, I wonder if you two have heard of her.
Now she is the wife of Emperor Taiyin, and we find that there seem to be many similarities between the two. "
Shen Zhining and Gu Jinge had heard about things in the world of monsters and beasts. Thinking about Shen Zhining, they asked, "Is there a special time and space or magical power that allowed her to live until now and avoid the catastrophe of destruction?"
In fact, strictly speaking, it cannot be said to have been avoided.
Being in one's own time and space, time is stretched infinitely, but one's own realm, cultivation, etc., do not rise but fall.
This is also the reason why there are various methods in Shifang World, but not many immortal cultivators specifically do this.
No matter how long you live, you are actually waiting to die slowly in a sense. It is better to face it directly.
Unless there is a more special reason here.
Shen Zhining talked about what she heard about the world of monsters and beasts from Xu Mochen.
After all, those things are in different realms and involve a lot of things. Not many people in Shifang World know about them.
Li Xi was stunned when he heard this: "A cultivator from a foreign land? Avoiding the catastrophe of annihilation in different time and space?
Is this Mrs. Taiyin really a cultivator from a foreign land? "
"I don't know," Shen Zhining shook her head, "You can think about it, if she was the one who gave you guidance, and the underworld became independent later, and she couldn't get the results, would she find a way to stay."
In another extreme form.
Li Xi has completely lost his smile: "I can't draw a conclusion on this matter, but I can ask Rakshasa."
"Rakshasa?" Shen Zhining was curious.
"The other companion who climbed out with me," Li Xi nodded, "to be honest, she should go to Daqian Capital now to find your companion Shu Wuyin."
This matter was getting more and more involved. Shen Zhining and Gu Jinge didn't expect that they would be related to Shu Wuyin.
"What are you doing with Sister Shu?" Shen Zhining couldn't help but ask, "She is a stranger."
"She is a person with four things," Li Xi replied, "We don't know the key to the ten-life covenant and what it is used for.
It's just that Xiaoyao Xian said back then that if he found someone from Siwu, he would find a way to give her his golden body. "
The two girls became more and more confused as they listened.
Fortunately, Li Xi didn't continue this topic. Obviously he didn't know much.
He turned back to the underworld: "After that man arrived, he gave us a lot of new ideas, so we created a special technique called the Whale Swallowing Cicada Shedding Magic Technique."
Shen Zhining smiled: "Should it be a devouring technique?"
"It's almost the same, but..." Li Xi didn't know what he thought of, and actually shuddered, "It's more powerful than that.
If it is swallowed, it will only absorb a small part of the opponent's power, or it will take away the body, which will result in losses for both parties.
But this
This is not the case with the Whale Swallowing Cicada Shedding Magic Technique. It creates a unique place in the body through the secret method of refining the six internal organs, which is used to digest the remaining souls of the immortal cultivators. "
It was also the first time that Gu Jinge heard: "Parts of the body? Secret refining of the six fu organs?"
Not our usual nine orifices? "
"No," Li Xi shook his head, "Since the existence of gods in the world of ten directions, the path has been to build the Qizang Divine Mansion, to open up the nine orifices of magical power, and to refine the soul to ascend and merge with the way of heaven.
As time goes by, some people will inevitably wonder whether it is a problem with the overall system of cultivating immortals that is responsible for the arrival of the Nirvana Tribulation. "
Gu Jinge used to be a princess and had lived in the harem. She sneered after hearing this: "This is just seeking medical treatment indiscriminately for a sudden illness. All kinds of thoughts come to mind at the slightest sign of trouble.
Therefore, the immortal cultivators in the underworld at that time should be very happy to have such a discovery. "
Shen Zhining also agreed: "The Tribulation of Nirvana is obviously a setting.
However, as the saying goes that all things come from the same origin, it would make sense if the person who originally created immortality left a hole in it from the beginning. "
Li Xi sighed: "According to the bits and pieces of records left behind, it is indeed as the two empresses said.
At the beginning, we were really happy and thought we had found a breakthrough. "
Obviously things weren't going to go as they expected.
"Who knows..." Li Xi smiled bitterly, "There will be no turning back from now on."
The two girls are waiting for the next chapter.
"Initially, a small group of immortal cultivators were selected for the practice," Li Xi continued. "After there were no problems, this technique began to spread, and some people in the Netherworld were also practicing it.
The remnant souls of the immortal cultivators are solved. After we take out the obsession, they are the remnant souls. If we think they can be used, it can be regarded as making the best use of them.
However... something went wrong later. "
He sniffed: "Among the first cultivators, there was an immortal cultivator named Qiao Jue who accidentally used his magical power to swallow other similar cultivators.
This devouring caused a major problem.
Two immortal cultivators who also practice the magical skill of swallowing whales and sloughing cicadas cannot be said to be devouring each other, but merging with each other.
No, we can't say fusion, that's not the result of one plus one equals two.
But it increased exponentially. "
Shen Zhining and Gu Jinge looked at each other: "So, that place in the underworld is out of control?"
"That's right," Li Xi nodded heavily, "immortal cultivators originally cross a single-plank bridge.
Now everyone has discovered that there is a quick shortcut to take, so they naturally choose the shortcut.
So the entire underworld immediately fell into chaos, and fighting and devouring each other happened every day.
And that Qiao Jue eventually became a giant in the underworld.
Not only immortal cultivators, but even remnant souls can be devoured and digested at will to further enhance their power. "
Shen Zhining understood now: "The situation was completely out of control, so you sealed the underworld."
"That's right," Li Xi admitted, "Then the underworld became a complete world, and all the remaining immortal cultivators were trapped in it."
"So, it can be divided into two categories," Shen Zhining thought for a while, "One is the normal immortal cultivator, and the other is the immortal cultivator like Qiao Jue who practices martial arts."
"Yes," Li Xi nodded, "We are all descendants of the immortal cultivators who stayed back in the past.
In their eyes, we are vessels and prey.
When they caught us, they forced us to practice the magical skill of swallowing whales and cicadas.
Then they will eat us after we have achieved some success. "
Shen Zhining and Gu Jinge couldn't help but feel numb after hearing this.
They have always believed that immortal cultivators are the highest beings in the world of ten directions.
Who knows that one day, they will become food in the eyes of others.
"If that's the case," Shen Zhining was a little confused, "Why don't you practice?" ap.
"After the underworld is sealed independently," Li Xi explained, "we can obtain very few remnant souls.
In terms of strength,
We can't fight them head-on either.
In a place like the underworld, the remnant soul is equivalent to immortality or aura, so it’s easy to understand. "
"There are very few remnant souls obtained," Shen Zhining keenly grasped the key, "That means there are still some.
It's just that you said that the underworld is closed, how do the people in it obtain the remnant souls. "
Li Xi sighed: "It's said to be closed, but it's not completely impossible to get out. It's just very difficult. For example, many people died on our side, and Rakshasa and I crawled out.
As for the remnant souls, they were not obtained by them, but sent to the underworld by someone. "
This amount of information was a bit overwhelming, so Gu Jinge asked, "Did people from the underworld do it?"
"I don't know," Li Xi shook his head directly, "The seal of the underworld was left by Xiaoyao Immortal back then. We can't break it, and neither can the underworld.
Otherwise, they would have killed us long ago, and with the antagonism between us, there is no need for the underworld to support us. "
This sounds very strange, but that's what it is.
After talking for a long time, I finally had a general understanding of the causes and consequences.
Although there are still many things that don't make sense, it's better than having no direction at the beginning.
"So you came to His Majesty in the hope that Immortal Tu Dao Xiaoyao would take action secretly?" Gu Jinge asked.
Li Xi nodded honestly: "To be honest with you two, the underworld has reached a point where it can no longer hold on any longer.
That Qiao Jue has become a monster-like existence because he has devoured too many immortal cultivators.
We are worried that if we continue to let it go, no one will be able to stop it if it breaks through the underworld and reaches the world of ten directions. "
"No," Shen Zhining grasped the key again, "You mean, this Qiao Jue is still alive? With his own memories? With his own cultivation?"
"Yes," Li Xi smiled bitterly, "If this were not the case, how could the underworld keep staring at us?
Another reason why the Whale Swallowing Cicada Shedding Magic Technique is called a new creation in the world of ten directions is that if people like Qiao Jue continue to swallow it, he can avoid the catastrophe of annihilation and gain an ability similar to eternal life. "
Shen Zhining was stunned, and Gu Jinge was also stunned.
I didn't expect Li Xi to be able to throw such a heavy bomb!
