After a while, the laughter disappeared.
"Three years is not a short time."
Jiang Hou paused and asked: "Li Kui, you should have understood the reason why the underworld has disappeared for thousands of years, so do you know our real enemy now?"
Enemies of the underworld.
Li Kui lowered his eyes slightly, and a picture deep in his memory suddenly came to mind.
It was a bloody and barren land, and the sky was also scarlet. The flapping and buzzing "dark clouds" covered the sky, covering the earth with a green carpet, covered with filamentous insect nests, giving birth to countless tiny lives.
The world of Ming Dynasty, on the other side of the door.
"Yeah, I know!"
die!
As soon as he finished speaking, the word "death" dripping with stinky blood suddenly appeared from the mourning platform.
Li Kui frowned and looked down.
In his eyes, there were dozens of bubbles as dark as ink rising and falling under the cobblestone road. A huge amount of decaying and dead air burst out uncontrollably, and the interior was already eternally dead.
Biological extinction, biological extinction.
Li Kui's body trembled slightly, and tears fell from the corners of his eyes.
This is an indescribable feeling, and his natural empathy makes him unable to restrain this sad emotion.
"These are the worlds we've cleaned up."
Marquis Jiang lowered his eyebrows and looked down, and his tone suddenly became heavy: "There is very little hope of rebirthing the original spirit, and this process may take billions of years, tens of billions of years..."
"This is a war that spans thousands of worlds."
Li Kui wiped the tears from his eyes.
"I have read your file." Marquis Jiang glanced at him: "When you were in Yan Feng Ziba, you had close contact with them once. This is not considered inexperienced. What's more, just recently, you just saw them. Exceed the evil god.”
"Meet him recently?"
Li Kui frowned and repeated in a low voice.
Then he seemed to remember something, and his eyes suddenly filled with emotion: "It turns out to be the River Styx, I never thought of it."
"It's normal not to think about this aspect."
Jiang Hou waved his hand gently, and those dark bubbles seemed to sink again, and he took steps to continue walking forward. "Your time in the underworld is too short. There are some things that you cannot know. You still need to grow."
"Li Kui understands."
In fact, Li Kui understood this truth very well. When he was a ghost messenger, his job was to send dead souls to reincarnate and capture evil spirits. When he was promoted to a ghost messenger, he had been sent to other worlds to perform tasks.
In his position, he seeks his own government.
The two continued to chat about the previous topic.
About Styx.
"Each world calls them different names, but Evil God is the most common name for them."
Marquis Jiang said: "The so-called evil gods are born from massive amounts of negative energy. For example, Styx has already possessed a preliminary and ignorant consciousness. If it were not for the effective suppression of the Great Wall, the world is likely to be destroyed soon."
Hearing these words, Li Kui's face became heavy unconsciously.
The harm caused by the Styx River is very terrifying, and the Yunmeng River Ghost is a living example.
Da Qin has spent thousands of years trying to control it, but it still only treats the symptoms but not the root cause, which shows how difficult it is. Countless people have lost their lives one after another.
Pollution, erosion, assimilation…
This is still the case when Styx is suppressed. If it can consciously control it like the sea dragon, the consequences will be unimaginable.
"It will be a world where there are more dead people than living people."
Marquis Jiang saw what Li Kui was thinking.
"Ah, what a terrifying future." Li Kui lowered his eyes slightly and said from the bottom of his heart.
Tu Wei·Wu Jiu San·2065
That was a world where there were more ghosts and resentful spirits than living people, and it was also the world he traveled through for the second time.
"At first it was just one world, and then countless worlds collapsed."
Some memories came to mind in Jiang Hou's eyes: "When the real war started, it fell into a white-hot quagmire in an instant. Heaven and Hell entered the battlefield one after another. This battle caused the death of countless people."
"Heaven..."
Li Kui raised his eyebrows, couldn't help but reach out and stroke his chin, and said directly: "Speaking of it, this is really a long-lost word. Since I started practicing, I have never heard the word "Heavenly Court" from others."
"It's normal."
Marquis Jiang smiled slightly and said in a calm tone: "In this world, as early as three thousand years ago, heaven took the initiative to cut off the connection with the human world, leaving only some magic weapons of immortals and gods, so as to avoid causing unnecessary turmoil."
Then, he pointedly said: "At the beginning, we still had a little time to make arrangements. Later, the war became intense and we no longer cared about other worlds."
From the words of King Qin Guang, Li Kui could fully imagine the tragedy of this war.
"Why not mobilize..."
[The whole world] These four words were on the tip of his tongue, but Li Kui swallowed them back because it was too stupid to ask this question.
Taking himself as an example, he could move mountains and reclaim seas with just a few clicks. He could create a natural disaster-level storm tornado, which only cost him mana.
The simple human wave tactic will not have any effect on Li Kui. If he encounters an opponent whose level is lower than his own, the winner can be determined in a few breaths.
However, giant existences like heaven and hell that span all the heavens and realms cannot completely end the war. If they rashly mobilize the power of the world to join the war, they will only waste countless lives in vain.
In this kind of war, both quality and quantity are indispensable.
Faced with Li Kui's abruptly stopped question, Marquis Jiang still answered patiently: "It's not that there is no mobilization, but that you can't see the world where mobilization is taking place."
"There is a very key factor in this - the original spirit, which you can understand as the will of the world."
"Once the original spirit ages, the world will slowly sink and return to nothingness. Of course, it also has another name - the bottom of the world. Vice versa, the more energetic the original spirit, the more aura the world will have. If it is sufficient, the upper limit that a cultivator can reach will be higher."
Lu Shidao, the great master of the Ming Dynasty, found ways to ascend to a higher level of the world just because his spiritual path came to an end.
At this point, Li Kui probably understood why King Qin Guang wanted to talk to him, because there were some things he should know.
In an instant, a large number of thoughts burst out of my mind.
So, Li Kui simply let go and boldly asked:
"If that's the case, why didn't you pay attention to it from the beginning?"
"It's not that we didn't pay attention, but it was too late."
Jiang Hou glanced at Li Kui, but then asked: "Li Kui, since you know why the evil god was born. Then, I think you should be able to think of why it caused the result of [it's too late]."
Hearing this, Li Kui slowly frowned.
After a while.
Li Kui breathed a sigh of relief and answered methodically:
"The key to the birth of the evil god is not the presence of aura, but negative energy. As long as it is a creature with thoughts and emotions, as long as there are conflicts and battlefields, there will definitely be a lot of negative energy precipitated."
"good."
Jiang Hou nodded slightly with satisfaction: "The original evil gods came from the bottom of the world and were born from the death of the original spirit. They were very smart and cunning, and carefully eroded the world at the bottom so that no information about them was spread. a little."
"Until the end, a new evil god will be born on the remains of the original spirit!"
Li Kui couldn't help but clenched his fists.
He had learned about the cunningness of the evil gods before. They arranged their arrangements in all parts of the Ming Dynasty. The grassland, the Ming Dynasty, and even Lu Shidao were all their pawns.
On the other hand, I am afraid that now, facing the large-scale evil gods, it is not difficult for them to create and breed their own kind. One world after another is the best breeding ground.
After a moment, Li Kui immediately asked: "Will the death of the original spirit give birth to evil gods?"
"No, it's very difficult. It's extremely difficult." Jiang Hou emphasized this point in particular: "If this were the case, we would have nipped it in the bud a long time ago."
"So that's it."
Li Kui nodded thoughtfully.
Marquis Jiang noticed Li Kui's actions and said: "Currently, the most important thing for the underworld is to get everything back on track and cultivate new combat capabilities. This is why newcomers like you are sent abroad."
"Sooner or later, we will return to the battlefield again!"
This is not a war in one world, not in the underworld, not in heaven, but a war in all the worlds.
Regarding Heaven, that may be the story about the next protagonist.
