In the void, a long river stretches across. Suddenly, there was an explosion of lightning. The movement was so small that even the monks patrolling below did not notice it. A figure appeared out of thin air and then disappeared in a flash.
"Crash!" The sound of huge waves came from above.
"Look!" A monk pointed upward in surprise, and saw that the Yellow Spring was overflowing for a full mile. At this time, the tide was gradually receding. First, the river water became illusory, and then disappeared into the void.
The ghosts that were originally flying in the sky also disappeared without a trace at this moment. The disappearance of the underworld has made the monks below feel disappointed. After all, the overflowing water of the underworld is the best thing for the underworld monks.
"Elixir" can make one's cultivation improve by leaps and bounds, and it's hard to let go of him once he leaves. At the same time, a feeling of sadness also surged into my heart.
Now that the underworld has receded, it is still flooding for a period of time. I am afraid that the next reincarnation will be separated by a very long time. This is undoubtedly bad news. As a result, many people will find it difficult to improve their cultivation, and may remain stagnant until the underworld reappears. .
It’s true that blessings and misfortunes depend on each other! At the same time, the White Bone Temple Master was alarmed. Soul fire ignited in her eyes, and her powerful consciousness immediately swept towards the void.
But where are the square pots? The sky was still gloomy, but the black hole-like thing, together with the immortal cultivator hiding inside, had long since disappeared without leaving any trace.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!" roared loudly, and a huge skeleton appeared. It crazily destroys everything, as if to vent its anger.
For a time, this place was turned upside down. ...The City of Ten Thousand Bones. Lu Zhong changed his appearance and came to the gate of the city.
As a Mahayana, he is quite confident in his ability to hide his aura. What's more, there is also gray fog space assistance, which can be deduced in advance to ensure that the identity will never be accidentally leaked.
At this moment, his eyes fell on a bronze mirror at the city gate.
"This mirror is very useful. It's obviously just a spiritual treasure, but it can identify the Mahayana immortal cultivators. Fortunately, I have a lot of attainments in Qianxi to be safe." Today, the city of Wansui is flourishing due to the overflow of yellow springs. now.
A large number of spiritual objects appeared due to the flooding of the river, which may have no effect on the immortal cultivators. However, for the underworld monks, the soul sediments fished out from the underworld are as hard currency as the immortal cultivator spiritual stones.
Whether it is used for trading or refining to improve cultivation, it is excellent. Depending on the quality of the sediment, there are many levels of sediment like spirit stones. For example, if Lu Zhong wants to enter the city now, he has to pay for a piece of low-grade soul sediment.
In the words of a monk from the underworld, it is a low-grade soul stone. At this time, Lu Zhong also noticed that when some monks entered the city, they did not pay with soul stones, but with blood, ghosts and other objects. Obviously, the currencies of the underworld are very diverse.
Entering the city, he began to inquire about news.
"What... Tongyou Huamui is sold out? Then I don't know when it will arrive?" Standing behind the counter was a corpse demon, smeared with makeup and makeup. Hearing this, he spread his hands and showed a helpless expression: "This fellow Taoist, Affected by the flooding of the underworld, the production areas of Tongyou Huamui were severely affected. They were flooded like that by the underworld. I don’t know how long it will take to recover." Lu Zhong, who hit a wall, had no choice but to come out of the shop.
However, he did not give up immediately. Instead, he walked around the city again, throwing out a large amount of soul stones, but he also received some inventory.
But this alone is nothing more than a drop in the bucket.
"Tongyou Marrow is related to resolving the hidden dangers of the underworld's incarnation. It seems that we can only stay in the underworld for a while." Lu Zhong thought of this and contacted Taiyin's incarnation and Su Xin who were far away in the Linghuan world, making the two of them worried. Qi Luofu responded to the affairs and maintained the normal operation of such a large force, so as not to cause any trouble to Xiaoxiao secretly in his absence.
"I really shot myself in the foot..."
"I don't know how long it will take for the production of Tongyou Marrow to recover. Fortunately, I also gained great benefits from it, so it's not a loss." Lu Zhong looked around and prepared to stay somewhere temporarily.
"Is there a Coffin Cave Mansion?" Well, this way of naming the underworld is quite realistic. But he didn't plan to live there, so he started walking on the street, ready to choose a cave that suited his liking.
In the underworld, there are also living people. They were humans during their lifetime, waiting for the right time, usually when their appearance has grown to an ideal state, and then they will convert to the ghost path.
Therefore, caves where normal people live must exist. While he was searching aimlessly, a voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
"This fellow Taoist immortal cultivator, can you come to the teahouse to talk? I have an opportunity that I would like to share with you." Lu Zhong was startled and fixed his gaze on the teahouse on the roadside.
I saw a skinny old man in white clothes and a pointed hat sitting facing the street. This man's face was like a dead tree, and he couldn't feel the slightest bit of life. He must have been dead for a long time. There were many suture marks, which made his smile extraordinarily bright. ferocious.
He looked deeply at the skinny old man and sat down on his seat without changing his expression.
"What kind of tea do you want? White jade song, or exquisite eight treasure leaves? I almost forgot... man, give me a pot of blood Ningchun!" The skinny old man smiled arrogantly and asked the waiter to bring new tea, but it was... A pot of blood-red viscous liquid.
"please!"
"Then I'm welcome." Lu Zhong looked calm and took a sip of the liquid in the cup.
"Good tea!" Although he was already in the gray mist space and knew that the tea in the cup was of the highest quality, he did not expect that after he actually tasted it, the taste was not inferior to the top-grade spiritual tea leaves in the Linghuan world. It also had an exotic flavor, but the taste was somewhat similar to that of drinking tea. Blood is really a pity.
Hearing this, the skinny old man also took a sip, but frowned slightly, so he put down the spirit tea in his hand and said with a smile: "Fellow Taoist is really a good tea person! It's a pity that this blood Ningchun is here, is The crudest spiritual tea.”
"Oh? In this case, it is also a business opportunity." Lu Zhong believes that if this tea is sold to Linghuan Realm, there will be great business opportunities.
However, now is not the time to talk about this.
"We've finished the tea. Why don't we just skip the unnecessary polite words? Let's talk openly. How did fellow Taoist find out!" Lu Zhong asked the question he was most concerned about.
He thought to himself that he had not revealed any flaws along the way, and at the same time he had not been in contact with anyone. Logically speaking, it was impossible for him to be exposed.
But now it has been exposed!
"Jiejie, let me give you a pass on how to find fellow Taoist. To be honest, I have been observing fellow Taoist for a long time. Speaking of which, during our previous fights, fellow Taoist left a profound impression on me. very!"
"You are... the master of the altar of life and death!" Lu Zhong revealed the other party's identity in one word.
"Jie Jie Jie! Fellow Taoist is really not simple!" The skinny old man smiled unexpectedly: "In this case, it's time for me to show my strength, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be qualified to cooperate with fellow Taoist. As fellow Taoist said, my true identity is The old monster of Death Sleep among the twins of life and death.”
"I have a gift of magical power. I can mark the target object, or a ray of spiritual energy, or a part of a piece of flesh, to track the whereabouts of that object... I believe that when I say this, fellow Taoists should understand. Bar?"
"It's that green light." Lu Zhong secretly sighed that a hundred layers of secrets had left such a big loophole. There is nothing that can be done about it. It is already in a cognitive blind spot. After dispelling the magic power, it should be impossible to track it.
If he hadn't heard the other party say it himself, who would have thought that the old monster of Death Sleep was so powerful and could track and locate target items by marking them.
Directly bypassing his Star Shifting Power.
"As for what the opportunity is... I wonder if this thing can be seen by fellow Taoists?" The old monster of Death Sleep suddenly turned his hand and showed a jade box.
Lu Zhong's consciousness swept away and his expression became solemn.
"Hmph, Tongyou Marrow Jade, you are really a master of craftsmanship!" It had to be said that he really couldn't refuse what the other party offered.
Compared with Tongyou Marrow, the Tongyou Marrow Jade, which has been washed away by death energy for tens of millions of years and condensed after being soaked in endless underworld water, can be said to be the best choice for resolving the hidden dangers of underworld incarnation, and can even be obtained for it. beneficial.
With this, the aura in Yuanling can be completely eliminated. At that time, even if the incarnation appears in the underworld, it will not cause any reaction from the sleeping existence, and it can even cannibalize the opponent and use that shocking power for its own use.
"As long as fellow Taoist help me, this thing will be yours." The old monster Death Sleep held his hand in his hand, his tone extremely sincere.
"Sorry, I never seek skin from a tiger!" Lu Zhong refused forcefully, without leaving any thought for the other party.
Thinking about it, you know that something that can make the old monster of Death Sleep pay such a huge price and plot something is definitely not something simple.
Getting involved rashly may lead to disaster. He would rather have the underworld's incarnation potential reduced than wade in this muddy water.
"Jie Jie, fellow Taoist, are you really unwilling? That's really a pity. You might as well tell fellow Taoist one more thing. Regarding the thing in the river that you touched, it has an extremely extraordinary origin, and its status is like the angel of heaven on your side of immortality. "When the old monster Death Sleep said this, he had to throw out a secret and smiled sadly: "How can you get rid of it easily if it is contaminated? If you don't believe it, you can just rise in the underworld tonight, and the blood will spread all over the place. On the earth, I will use the above-grade soul stone as a guide to try to induce the hidden things in the soul. If unfortunately I am right, I can come to this tea house again. I believe that fellow Taoist will change his mind." Say it, he stood up, Say goodbye.
Lu Zhong was silent when he heard this. He could tell that the other party was not trying to trick him. ...
"Existing like an angel from heaven..." At a certain moment, Lu Zhong murmured to himself as he held the high-grade soul stone in his hand.
As the old monster of Death Sleep said during the day, he tried to use the soul stone as a guide to induce the factors hidden in the soul.
The next moment, his expression changed drastically.
"It's actually true!" Just now, Lu Zhong was simulating in the gray fog space. Unexpectedly, once the soul was induced, it suddenly changed color like clear water mixed with thick ink, and the cultivation level was forced to transform into the underworld.
"Is this... the existence of an emissary from the same heaven?" Lu Zhong couldn't calm down in his heart. To explain this ability, the only way to describe it is with laws, which was completely beyond his cognition.
"It seems that I really want to go there." Blessings and misfortunes depended on each other. He was greedy for the benefits of the incarnation of Huangquan, hoping to steal his cultivation so as to pave a smooth road for the future. However, he was unexpectedly struck by the enemy and left behind in his soul. There are huge hidden dangers, and there is even the danger of changing the path.
...The next day, a teahouse on the roadside.
"Dude, have a pot of blood Ningchun."
"Okay!" The waiter was very enthusiastic and quickly handed over a pot of hot tea. After pouring tea by himself, Lu Zhongcai drank a cup. A figure appeared on the opposite side, but it was the old monster Death Sleep who arrived as promised.
"Eh? Why haven't you been blessed?" He said softly, as if he had seen something strange.
"You don't need to know this." Lu Zhong didn't know that the other party was plotting against him last night. If he really followed the other party's words, everything would be irreversible and he could only choose to cooperate.
Now, since he uses the gray fog space to avoid it, he may not be able to get rid of it on his own. The reason why I came here today is just to see if there is a more convenient way.
"Fellow Taoist is really not simple at all!" Old Monster Death Sleep repeated this again, turned to drink the spiritual tea in front of him, and said seriously: "It seems that fellow Taoist is indeed qualified to cooperate with me fairly. ! Let’s not talk nonsense. As for the aura of Taoist Huangquan attached to the soul, I have a way to eradicate it! "
"In exchange for this method, plus the previous Tongyou Marrow Jade, I will change my fellow Taoist to help me once!" 'Taoist Master Huangquan!
Lu Zhong secretly thought, "Good guy, what kind of existence is this?" Above the true immortals? No wonder he got tricked!
He was thinking this in his mind, but his expression didn't change at all. He took a sip and said, "Your Excellency is so persevering. It seems that you have a big goal. I don't know why you are like this?"
"Jiejie, just to take a step further!" Old Monster Death Sleep smiled coldly and told the whole story.
There is the death of life, but there is no life of death. This is the best explanation of the relationship between the two twins in the altar of life and death, Sheng Zhi and Death Mian. Sheng Zhi can live in Death Sleep without him, but Death Mian cannot do without Sheng Zhi.
"Oh? You want me to kill Sheng Zhi?" Lu Zhong was slightly surprised, thinking that this is quite simple.
"Oh, it's not that easy! If that's the case, I don't have to go out of my way to find a Taoist friend. The twins share the same life. If they don't try to isolate them, no matter how the Taoist friend kills Sheng Zhi, he will still be there. I am reborn." In order to achieve his goal and win people's trust, the old monster of Death Sleep did not hesitate to reveal his own weaknesses.
"So, in this way, you can kill fellow Taoist!" Lu Zhong smiled. If there is a chance in the future, he would not mind doing this.
"So, what should we do?"
"What I want fellow Taoist to do is very simple! That is to use your Excellency's Fanghu Immortal Treasure to trap Shengzhi inside and kill him! Only in this way can the connection be completely severed and I can be free!" Old Death Mian Strange eyes are cold.
"This is something that only fellow Taoists can do!" Lu Zhong could not refute Death Mian's words. The effect of the square pot has been verified before.
Even if he is as powerful as Taoist Huangquan, he cannot sense the lost Yuanling through the immortal treasure. It is not impossible to completely cut off life and death.
"It's not impossible." Lu Zhong seemed to be relieved, and then added: "But between you and me, we are enemies with different paths. I'm afraid it's hard to trust... to make a contract or something. What's more, the immortal path and the underworld are incompatible and will not have the slightest effect."
"Unless the next requirement is met first." His eyes changed and he said slowly.
"What are you asking for?" Old Monster Death Sleep suppressed his anger and reminded him coldly: "Fellow Taoist, please don't go too far!"
