"It's not that I have good eyesight, but you make too much noise in the Netherworld and the aura on your body is too obvious. At first glance, you look like Chi You." Empress Houtu said with a smile.
"It's good to have some of Chi You's ancestor's prowess. As for the name, the junior's name is Jiang Shan. Let's call him Jiang Shan now." Jiang Shan said.
"Okay, I'll call you Jiang Shan." Empress Houtu said with a smile, "Nanyue has already told you about my uncle, so I won't go into details. I need someone to go into the abyss and help me get the Nine Color Sand Hua, and looking at the three realms, you are the most suitable. So I hope you can go into the abyss and help me capture the Nine-Colored Shahua. No matter whether it succeeds or not, my underworld owes you a favor."
uncle? One generation later, the great god Choming was born, which meant that the empress in front of her who inherited the title of Hou Tu was the third generation Hou Tu.
That's right, if the relationship were further distant, you might not be willing to give.
Jiang Shan thought it over quickly in his mind and said: "My queen is quick to speak, and I won't be polite. Since we met, the underworld has helped me a lot, whether it is in Dali or in the Western underworld. If you can help me, it is my duty to help. But Huang Yuan This place is extremely dangerous. If I am not careful, I am afraid that I will not be able to get out, so I have several requests to ask for your permission."
"Just say it." Houtu Empress still smiled.
"First, I want the essence of the three mountains and five mountains." Jiang Shan said. After Pangu died, his head and limbs turned into the five mountains, the meridians turned into rivers, and the skin turned into the ground.
To follow Pangu's path, he needs the power of earth veins.
The person in charge of the earth lineage is Houtu Empress.
"No problem." Empress Houtu agreed. This treasure is very precious, and she is probably the only one in the world who can get it, but she doesn't care about Jiang Shan's efforts.
"Second, it is unknown whether there are Nine-Colored Sahua in the wasteland, and there are many dangers in it. I will search for a hundred years at most. If I don't find it for a hundred years, then I will leave." Jiang Shan said.
"Yes." Empress Houtu nodded.
"Third, if the Great God Choming recovers and the Queen has no constraints, I hope the Queen will drive Emperor Fengdu out of the Netherworld and Emperor Qingxu out of the earth." Jiang Shan said.
"Are you supporting the Jade Emperor?" Queen Houtu looked at Jiang Shan and said.
"It can be said that although they didn't want me, the main reason is that I want Beidou to die! And I entered the Netherworld. To put it bluntly, the Netherworld made me very disappointed. The world of the world is very private, but the ghosts and gods in the underworld live there. Generally the same, some places are even more filthy." Jiang Shan said.
"So you helped that place hide in the Netherworld? Do you just want to clear the Netherworld?" Queen Houtu said.
"Qing Youming was her idea. She wanted to earn a living for all living beings, and she once persuaded me to join her, but I was afraid of freezing to death in the snow, so I didn't dare. But I still want to help if I can, and the empress is the one who Lord, this is the queen’s business,” Jiang Shan said.
"She is a very good girl. Although her cultivation is not the best at the moment, she is compassionate and tough. I like her very much when I see her. If you don't tell me, I will protect you. It's just that the water in this netherworld is deeper than she imagined. , if it is extremely clear, there will be no fish." Queen Houtu said.
"Maintaining the status quo will not make it worse. Thousands of years have passed. This is the experience of our predecessors. Changes may make things better, but before they get better, unbelievable changes may occur. Therefore, the world is afraid Change, the higher the level, the more afraid of change, it affects the whole body, but if it does not change, the world will stop moving forward." Jiang Shandao.
"So the Nether World of Heaven is constantly injecting fresh blood, hoping to bring about some changes, but at the same time, the people sitting at the top are the old ones, so that the overall situation will not be chaotic." Houtu Empress said.
"So Ksitigarbha is in front and the empress is behind. Only in this way can the underworld have a new situation." Jiang Shan said.
"She's in front, aren't you afraid of her death?" Queen Houtu said.
"Then let her die. Everyone needs to pay the price for the choices they make. If you don't have the heart to die together, you can't bear such responsibility." Jiang Shan said.
"Okay, there is no problem with this one. Are there any other conditions?" Queen Houtu asked. If the Choming matter is resolved, she will start driving Fengdu out even if Jiang Shan doesn't say anything.
"No more, just these three." Jiang Shan said.
"Okay." Empress Houtu smiled, stretched out a slender finger and pointed it in the void. Then the space on the side shattered, a dark passage opened, and a piece of yellow essence exuding a strong earth breath headed toward Jiang Shan. Suddenly, a broad and deep aura enveloped Jiang Shan's heart, and his gaze seemed to be looking up at the majestic mountains.
"Girl, give it to me now? Don't you wait until I succeed?" Jiang Shan reached out and took the essence of the earth's veins. He deeply sensed the horror of this mass of essence. When a bit of mud fell inside, it turned out to be a big mountain, and the magic power on it was even more terrifying. .
"When doing business, you always have to give a deposit first. There is no reason to give it after the work is completed." Empress Houtu said with a smile.
"This is not just a deposit." Jiang Shan said. Although he mentioned three conditions, Hou Tu cannot control the second one. Hou Tu can do the third one by himself, so in fact, Hou Tu can only decide whether to give it or not. This leyline essence.
"Then think of it as a gift from me, the elder, to you, the junior. The stronger you are, the better you can protect yourself after entering the abyss." Queen Houtu said.
"Your Majesty is really not afraid that I will break my promise," Jiang Shan said.
"There are loyal and greedy people in the Zanyin lineage, but there are no treacherous ones. Jiuli Chiyou will not do it, and I don't think you will. This is my intuition after watching hundreds of billions of creatures reincarnate countless times in the Netherworld. I think I won't lose this time." Queen Houtu said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. If there are Nine-Colored Shahua in the wilderness, I will definitely come here to find it for Your Majesty. However, I still have some things to deal with. I will give this junior three years to deal with some chores. After the processing is completed, I will contact Your Majesty." Jiang Shandao.
"It's okay. It's not easy to enter the abyss. I will come to find you again in three years." Queen Houtu said.
"Thank you for your understanding, Madam." Jiang Shan thanked him immediately.
"The emperor of the world is not in need of hungry soldiers, let alone me?" Empress Houtu said with a smile.
"Three years later, I will arrive as promised." Jiang Shan said.
Empress Houtu nodded slightly and was about to leave when Jiang Shan said again: "I have one more thing to take the liberty of saying. I would like to ask Empress for advice. The effect of a whole Nine-Colored Sahua flower will be better than the leaves of Nine-Colored Sahua. If you take it Can Jiucai Shahua really save the Great God Choming? If so, why didn’t Lord Doumu Yuanjun directly trade with the empress in order to blackmail him? The empress should stand directly on Lord Doumu Yuanjun’s side.”
Doumu Yuanjun controlled the entire Jiucai Shahua plant, and regularly gave Houtu Empress the leaves of the Jiucai Shahua to preserve Choming's soul. If Jiucai Shahua could be maintained, why not trade it directly?
"Because even Jiucai Shahua can at best keep my uncle alive, and if Jiucai Shahua is given to me, they won't feel at ease, so they choose to delay it like this." When she mentioned Cho Ming, Empress Houtu smiled. Dissipated and turned into a dignified way.
"The Great God Choming still has a ray of remnant soul, but with the magical power of the empress, even a ray of remnant soul should be able to enter the reincarnation. But it is not possible. The empress asked Dao Ancestor for help, and Dao Ancestor should also help. Why? Do you want to drag it by the leaves?" Jiang Shan asked doubtfully.
"A ray of remnant soul enters reincarnation. The prerequisite for continuous improvement in reincarnation is that the rest of his remnant soul has dissipated. However, my uncle's situation is special. He practices the Avenue of Time, so when he was severely injured and almost lost his soul, part of his soul was not In this time and space, but in the long river of time, it may be in the past or in the future, and those fragments themselves may not realize that they are uncles, so they cannot reincarnate." Houtu Empress said.
"Then we can't find the remnant soul? Obviously finding the remnant soul is the key." Jiang Shan said.
"It's difficult. His soul has been scattered in the long river of time. The past cannot be changed, the future cannot be explored, and even I have no way. And even in this time and space, his soul has been scattered, and new ones may have been born. Will is not his own self. Unless he finds the legendary Book of Heaven, there is very little chance of finding it." Empress Houtu said. He naturally knew that this was the right path, but after searching for so many years, he felt a little disheartened.
