However, along the way, he encountered too many unexpected things. At this moment, he didn't feel strange or afraid, but rather excited.
Then he thought for a moment, regained his composure, and said loudly: "My spiritual master, Li Boxen! Come and pay me a visit!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard an echo. The world was originally a vast expanse with no end in sight, but the echo buzzed like thunder rolling high in the sky, making his heart restless and his ears numb.
He hurriedly silenced himself, wondering whether this place should have such a vision, or whether the master here was displeased and gave him a blow.
He stood there and thought about it, and thought to himself, no matter what that person thought, since he could come here, he should have given his permission. If he doesn't speak, I don't care. I can always look around.
He also said that whether it is a god or a demon, no matter what Bihai said or the history he originally knew, he should have been just a "human" in this world in the past. It was only by chance and luck that he became the world. The spirit god in. Since they come from the same source, what's the big deal? What's there to be afraid of?
Then he raised his feet and walked aside.
He was originally facing the passage between the two mountains, which was only a few dozen steps away. But looking inside, all one could see was a soul-stirring darkness, and it was obvious that there was a cave inside. He planned to explore the surrounding environment first to see if there were any other visions before trying to go there, so he walked around the foot of the mountain for a while.
But the strange thing was that no matter how long or how far he walked to the side, he was still facing the road between the two mountains, as if he had never moved his feet. And the ground was covered with mist, and I didn’t know if it was a problem with the soles of my feet or a problem with the mountain.
Then he thought about it, took off the iron belt with the soft sword hidden around his waist, and tried to insert it into the ground.
Once I tried it, I really stood up. Li Boxen stared at the belt while striding back diagonally, about ten steps back. When he looked at the mountain again, he saw that it was still the same size and position.
He frowned, turned around and ran for nearly a hundred steps to one side, then turned around and looked - the iron belt standing in the mist had become a small line, but the position and size of the mountain had not changed, and he was still facing him. Looking at the mountain passage, the belt seems to be tilted to the other side.
He thought that this should mean that there was only one way here - to go to that passage. Otherwise, no matter which direction you go or how far you go, the mountain will still be facing you dozens of steps in front of you.
Li Bochen walked back slowly, picked up his belt and tied it around his waist, and whispered: "Is it the real king who wants me to come in? Then Mr. Li is being abrupt!"
He was afraid of the echo, so he lowered his volume this time. But as soon as he finished speaking, the echo came again, making him feel uncomfortable for a while. Li Boxen thought to himself that it seemed that it would be better to talk less, so he gathered his strength and walked toward the two mountains.
This time, the position and distance of the mountain finally changed. After walking thirty steps, he finally reached the foot of the mountain. Looking from here, there is still a bottomless black space between the two mountains, as if you will fall into an unfathomable abyss as soon as you step into it.
He hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and took steps.
The problem of his identity as a spiritual master has been bothering him for a long time. Now the opportunity to solve the mystery seems to be right in front of him, even if he has to fight through mountains of swords and seas of fire. Otherwise, he wouldn't have really used the method he learned from Bi Hai.
When he stepped out, he thought he would disappear into the darkness immediately. But he didn't expect that instead of going dark, his eyes suddenly brightened, causing him to squint his eyes subconsciously. He was afraid that there was some danger ahead, so he raised his left hand to shield his eyes, touched his waist, and pulled out Yaohou.
It was also at this time that he suddenly realized that he had brought all the weapons with him - could it be that his physical body was no longer in that grass nest now? !
This thought flashed through his mind, and he quickly gathered his thoughts and squinted to see between his fingers. Only then did he realize that there was nothing unusual in front of him, but a huge golden platform with strong light coming from the top of the golden platform.
He slowly adapted to the light, then put his hand down and inserted Yaohou back into his waist.
There is also a long bridge between Jintai and him. The bridge is very strange. It has three floors and is the same black as the two mountains. The ground here is no longer a vast mist, but has turned into dark red stone slabs, as if fire will erupt from the gaps at any time.
The light at the top of the golden platform was a small ball, but Li Boxen looked at it for a while, and gradually discovered that the light was gushing upward - the white light rose up and converged into a line of light, attacking the zenith, and finally dispersed into tumbling electric snakes all over the sky. It turns out that the lightning in the sky comes from this.
Although there were various magnificent sights in the place where he came from that were unparalleled in this world, compared with what he saw in front of him, they were not even one ten thousandth of the magic. Li Bochen stood there for a while, then turned to look at the two mountains behind him, but they were already dozens of steps away from him. However, there was no longer an unfathomable blackness between the two mountains, and he could clearly see the outside. Chu.
He turned around again, thinking that if there was a master here, it should be on that golden platform. It's just that no one answered his words outside. Now that he has passed through the door, no one pays attention to him. Is it that the master is not at home, or does he not want to communicate with him at all?
If it's the former, that's it. If it's the latter... Li Bochen raised his eyes and stared at the golden platform for a while, then snorted in his heart. He is usually tolerant of others, but he doesn't want to suffer from some careless idleness. If this master is really so arrogant, he doesn't want to be submissive and humble.
When I was outside this world, I would still be worried and anxious, but now that I'm here, what's the point of being afraid?
Then he took a deep breath, lifted his feet and walked forward again. He wanted to go to the golden platform to see what the mystery was!
As he stepped onto the bridge, he felt that it was no different from a human bridge. It was solid and stable under his feet. After walking for more than ten steps, I saw that there seemed to be a dried up water channel under the bridge. I didn't know how deep it was, and I circled the Jintai. It's just that this bridge has three floors, and the two floors are underground. I don't know how to get down and what's the use.
After walking more than a hundred steps across the bridge, I came to the golden platform and looked up - there was a long staircase leading to the top, like a ladder to heaven. This golden platform is divided into ten levels, and each level becomes narrower as it goes up. Without hesitation, he stepped onto the steps again.
Now that we know that this place is one of the worlds in the universe, we have been prepared for all kinds of supernatural phenomena since we entered. But ever since I passed the mountain gate, crossed the bridge, and went up to the golden platform, it felt like I was walking in the world, nothing out of the ordinary. He went straight up the steps to the fourth floor, getting closer and closer to the light at the top, but still no one stopped him, not even any spells or restrictions, which made him feel more and more something was wrong.
When I got to the ninth floor and got closer and closer to the top, I finally felt a breeze slowly blowing from both sides of my body, swirling, but it was fleeting and there was no further comment.
He didn't stop, took another breath, and stepped onto the last level.
He stood on a golden platform. The top of this golden platform is actually quite wide, and can even accommodate people riding horses. But the sky above it was empty, except for a throne standing in the middle.
This throne is quite tall and made of gold. There are no decorations on it, and it seems to be just pieced together with thick gold plates. This throne should be the one that shines. It was so bright from a distance, but now that I finally got closer, I could only feel that it was emitting a layer of misty light. Looking upward, the soft light converged with the electric light from the zenith. For a moment, it was hard to tell whether the light from the throne turned into thunder and lightning, or whether the thunder and lightning gathered to illuminate the throne.
Li Bochen was stunned for a while, not knowing what to think.
The legendary spiritual gods and all the worlds are mysterious and strange, but now that I am here, I feel that compared to the legends, this place is too ordinary. There is no one, no spirit, except for the thunder clouds in the sky, there is not even a vision.
Whether it was Beichen or some other mysterious spirit, he should have great magical powers. Now that I have reached this point, why don't they stop me? He thought he could finally figure out the origin of his spiritual master when he came here, but he didn't expect that he was still confused in the end - who is the master here? ?
He was disappointed for a moment, and he didn't know if this was some kind of test, so he couldn't help shouting: "Zhenjun, why don't you show up yet!?"
After drinking this, he himself was startled. The next moment, I suddenly realized what was abnormal here - it was within myself.
Ever since I came here, I seem to be particularly courageous. Whether he stepped into the mountain gate, crossed the bridge, climbed the golden platform, or even said the sentence he just drank, he felt as if he was dealing with ordinary people. But he recalled how he felt when he saw the silhouette of the Fengxue Sword God in the Zhangcheng Mansion Yamen - although it was not really frightening, he did feel sincerely shocked.
When he came here, he originally thought that this place might be the realm of Emperor Beichen - Emperor Beichen... was already one of the most noble beings in the world. But once I got here, I lost all awe.
He looked at himself carefully and didn't feel that he was under any spell, but he also knew that his current courage was really terrifying. This must be an abnormality after all!
After thinking about this, I realized that the cry just now did not elicit an echo.
He felt that he was confused and couldn't figure it out, so he simply walked forward a dozen steps and came to the throne. The throne exudes soft light, but there is no one on the throne. Li Bochen stared at it for a while, and suddenly a thought came to his mind——
Do you want me to sit on it?
This throne should belong to the ruler of this world, it should be like the emperor's dragon ride. It would be an act of great disrespect for me to sit on it. If there really was a master here, wouldn't he still show up?
Li Bochen was shocked when this idea came to him, knowing that he would never do this in normal times. But now he is incredibly bold, and this idea is like a seed, taking root and sprouting in his heart, and he can't stop it no matter what.
Before he could think more clearly, by some strange coincidence, he took two steps forward and raised his hand to hold the back of the throne.
His heart shuddered, and just as he was about to take his hand back, he felt a rumble in his head - countless voices swarmed in, like muffled thunder exploding one after another. In this brief moment, without giving him any chance to react, his vision went dark, his body went numb, and he fainted.
When he woke up again, he didn't know how much time had passed - he lay on the ground and opened his eyes, and found that he was still next to the throne. There were still thunderclouds in the sky, and there was still silence all around.
He stared at the thundercloud for a while, then slowly stood up. He took a few deep breaths and let them out again.
——At this moment, his heart was in turmoil. It took him a while to sort out his thoughts, but his eyes fell on the throne and he could no longer look away.
The burst of sounds just now came in, and he fainted immediately. But now I woke up and realized that I could barely understand two sentences.
One sentence is: "Emperor Beichen, help me kill this thief!"
Another sentence is: "Emperor... you took away both father and son, why didn't you take me away too!"
These were just two of the countless roaring words, and they had no connection. But what Li Boxen remembered was the situation when he had touched the tiger's luck on Mount Zhang.
At that time, just like before, there were countless voices pouring into my mind, all of which were people's prayers to the tiger. But when he touched the throne just now, what he heard was countless times more than before. It was completely unbearable for him and he fainted immediately.
The tiger's luck is the tiger's divine position. That...this throne! ?
Is this really the throne of the Beichen Emperor? ?
Why can I hear this?
Where is Emperor Beichen! ?
He suddenly remembered the nightmares he had had over the years. In my dreams, I can always hear a lot of gibbering, but I can never tell them clearly!
There was a chill and warmth in his heart, and he was finally able to move his eyes away from the throne and look under the golden platform.
At this moment, his thinking was extremely clear. First he saw the bridge, then he saw the two mountains, and then he remembered the scene when he cast the spell and came to this world.
What he saw at that time was a yellow light... was that Huangquan Road?
The passage between the mountain peaks in the distance...is that the gate of hell?
That bridge, is it the Naihe Bridge? ?
If so, could this world... be the underworld under Beichen's jurisdiction? ?
Li Bochen thought of the echo he heard outside the "Ghost Gate", the murmurs in his dreams, and the response he never got. Finally, his eyes widened, his teeth clenched, and a thought came to his mind that made him tremble all over -
I am Beichen.
The surroundings suddenly became brighter, and the originally dry waterway under the golden platform suddenly glowed with red light, and then a sea of fire surged out and surrounded the golden platform. The thunderclouds at the top of the sky were originally silent, but now they also roared loudly, attracting electric snakes to strike towards the vast land, like giant trees that towered up to the sky and the ground.
Li Bochen was stunned, remembering that when he was in the Yamen of Zhangcheng Mansion, when the true spirit on Xu Cheng's thin sword was about to refine himself, he did indeed see the scene of sea of fire and thunder prison in the illusion - it was clearly here!
Looking at the scene in front of him, he felt that someone had made a huge joke on him——
Am I...am I Beichen?
