Cold, bone-chilling cold!
Although the water of the Styx is not as freezing as the underworld, it still contains terrifying yin energy, which penetrates into the human limbs and bones along the pores. Even those with amazing energy and blood will become as stiff as ice over time.
However, Li Daoxuan was protected by the Ksitigarbha cassock and his cultivation level was not weak, so he was able to withstand the coldness of the Styx.
As he continued to sink, there was no trace of light around him, and he fell into complete darkness. Even Li Daoxuan's vision was affected.
Many evil ghosts lurking in the River Styx began to move around. They kept swimming around Li Daoxuan, like rotten mermaids, with mad desire in their eyes.
But the Ksitigarbha cassock on Li Daoxuan's body bloomed with a mellow Buddha's light. Any evil ghost who dared to get close would feel like it was being roasted by the sun and let out heart-rending screams.
Ten feet, fifty feet, one hundred feet...
I don't know how long it took, but Li Daoxuan had sunk thousands of feet in the cold and dark.
More and more evil ghosts gathered around him, even covering up the bright Buddha's light. Moreover, Li Daoxuan found that as the depth increased, the evil ghosts he encountered became more powerful.
Among the ghosts, he even felt the aura of the Yin Shen realm.
When it sank to 7,000 feet, the water pressure had become extremely terrifying. Even with the protection of the Ksitigarbha cassock, Li Daoxuan was a little breathless. Fortunately, he was equipped with the Great Five Elements Escape Technique. With the movement of the water element magical power, The pressure around me suddenly became much lighter.
At eight thousand feet, he began to feel a sense of obstruction.
It was as if a mysterious force was pushing him upwards, not wanting him to reach the bottom.
Like a giant whale breathing.
Li Daoxuan's heart moved, and he realized that he was almost reaching the bottom of the water.
He silently used the magical power of heaven and earth, and his body suddenly became dozens of feet in size and sank forcibly.
Nine thousand feet!
Li Daoxuan finally reached the bottom, and the cold touch was slightly soft, like the mud at the bottom of a river. Before he could observe it, his eyes suddenly blurred, and his spirit began to become hazy.
Snapped!
As soon as the alarm sounded, Li Daoxuan's spirit was shocked. When he came back to his senses, he realized that he was not at the bottom of the river, but in a magnificent court hall.
This is definitely not a human court hall. The walls are all in the shape of white jade, and the sides are decorated with colorful colored glazes. There are real dragons swimming around on the pillars. The civil and military officials in the hall are all filled with immortal auras and are highly cultivated people.
Li Daoxuan even saw the Ten Palaces of Yama, the Ghost Emperor of the Five Directions.
Above the court, there sat a man wearing a colorful robe and a crown on his head. His whole body was glowing with divine light and his appearance was majestic. Especially his eyes, which seemed to see through the vast world and the cycle of life and death.
The moment he saw his appearance, Li Daoxuan was shocked and a name emerged in his heart.
The Lord of Taishan Mansion, Emperor Dongyue!
In the underworld, above the evil ghost generals are the Ten Palaces of Yama, above Yama are the ghost emperors of the five directions, and above the ghost emperors are the Lord of Taishan Palace, Dongyue Emperor!
It is recorded in "The Map of True Spirit Industry" that Lord Taishan is the supreme controller of the underworld, in charge of the cycle of life and death of all living beings, like an emperor in the Yang world, with a very high status. Even the founder of Maoshan, Mao Zhenjun Mao Ying, is Under his command, he was appointed Si Ming Dongyue Shang Zhenqing.
"Ma Lingguan, why are you wandering in your mind?"
Emperor Dongyue's majestic gaze fell on Li Daoxuan, which put a lot of pressure on him.
Li Daoxuan looked at the official robes on his body and was stunned. I am... Lord Ma?
Ma Wangye is the God of Horses, commonly known as Ma Wangye. His full name is "Water Grass Horse Mingwang", also known as "Lingguan Ma Yuanshuai". Legend has it that he has three eyes, so he is also known as "Three Eyes of Spiritual Light" and "Three Eyes of Spiritual Light". name.
A memory came to his mind.
I am Marshal Ma, the spiritual officer. Because I drank a few cups of jade liquid and fine wine last night, I actually fell asleep during the court meeting today. I snored loudly, which made the emperor blame me.
As for Li Daoxuan's experience, it began to become blurry, as if he was quickly forgotten after waking up from a dream.
Who am I?
Li Daoxuan, Tianyan, Huangquan Realm...
Is it really just Zhuang Zhou Mengdie?
Seeing that Li Daoxuan didn't speak for a long time, Emperor Dongyue's eyes showed supreme majesty, pressing down on him like a mountain.
"Ma Lingguan, do you know your guilt?"
The sound was like thunder, echoing in Li Daoxuan's ears for a long time, carrying a soul-stirring power.
At the same time, the civil and military gods all looked at Li Daoxuan, with warnings, worries, concern, or doubts in their eyes. In short, they all hinted to Li Daoxuan to kneel down and confess.
Under the pressure of everyone, Li Daoxuan actually felt a feeling of fear in his heart. He bent his knees slightly, as if he wanted to kneel down to apologize.
However, he frowned, feeling that something was not right.
The next moment, a bright sword light lit up in front of his eyes, as if it cut away the layers of clouds and saw the blue sky!
Pure Yang Sword Intent!
Li Daoxuan straightened his back, suddenly opened his eyes, and looked straight at the incomparably majestic Emperor Dongyue.
"Be bold!"
"Ma Lingguan, are you crazy?"
"Emperor, please calm down!"
…
The court meeting was in chaos, and the immortals were terrified.
Li Dao
Under the gaze of the Heavenly Eye, Emperor Dongyue remained as still as a mountain, with a calm expression and just sighed lightly.
"Why so?"
As his voice sounded, the surrounding Gonggun princes quickly disappeared, and they were all in vain.
Even Emperor Dongyue changed. His majestic face became ugly, and his colorful fairy clothes turned into a sinister black robe. There seemed to be a pair of eyes on the robe, looming, secretly observing Li Daoxuan.
Li Daoxuan looked at his face, his eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "Sure enough, it's you, weak belly!"
What appeared in front of him was not the Dongyue Emperor, nor the Styx Water Monster, but the Lord of the Underworld, the Ghost King of the Void Belly!
Li Daoxuan had only seen him before, and he looked exactly the same, so there was no mistaking him.
The Ghost King with a Void Belly sighed quietly, his eyes were extremely deep, and he said: "You want to kill me, so I will leave my true body for you to kill. You sneak into the River Styx, and I will not hesitate to spend a lot of mana to create a perfect illusion for you. There you can be among the immortals, live forever, and enjoy all the joys of the three realms, so why come out?"
"Practice for a lifetime, is it really an illusion? Is it that important?"
"Of course it's important!"
Li Daoxuan said categorically: "Because there are still people waiting for me to go back."
Xudu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and smiled, his eyes full of sarcasm.
"Eternal life is a lonely road. Even the gods who were once so high will disappear one day. Li Daoxuan, you are destined to be on a different path from most people. In this case, why bother to cling to temporary feelings?"
If they have different ways, they will not conspire with each other.
Li Daoxuan did not continue to argue with him, but asked: "Void-belly Ghost King, it seems that it is impossible for me to leave the Styx. In this case, can you help me answer some questions?"
The empty-belly ghost king in front of him gave Li Daoxuan an extremely terrifying feeling, although he seemed to be able to communicate normally and was even somewhat polite, as if he was not a ghost king but a teacher.
But every time Li Daoxuan looked into his deep and dark eyes, he couldn't help but feel a bone-chilling coldness.
Xudu smiled slightly, showing his pale teeth, and said: "Why should I help you solve your doubts?"
Li Daoxuan was not afraid. He stretched his hand to the center of his eyebrows, with a fierce look in his eyes.
If you want to suppress the Void Belly Ghost King and find out more information, you must be more ruthless than the other party!
"Haha, your clairvoyance is indeed good, but if you want to deal with me, you still have to -"
Xudu's words stopped abruptly. He looked at Li Daoxuan quietly, his pupils condensed slightly. It was obvious that what Li Daoxuan did was beyond his expectation.
I saw Li Daoxuan inserting his fingers into the center of his eyebrows and gouging out his Heavenly Eye alive, with blood splashing all around.
There was pain in his eyes, but more importantly, there was ferocity. The evil spirit in his heart was constantly aroused, like a wolf ready to fight for his life.
"Want it?"
Li Dao Small."
Xudu looked at him deeply and said, "If I swallow you, I can also get the Heavenly Eye."
Li Daoxuan pinched the spell, and a wisp of beating flame appeared in his palm, surrounding the Heavenly Eye.
"Answer my questions or I'll burn it to ashes!"
The Ghost King with an empty belly showed a meaningful smile, and his eyes looked at Li Daoxuan with a hint of appreciation.
"Interesting. With your ruthlessness, if you are willing to join me, you will be a great person."
Li Daoxuan stared at him closely and said: "I only ask three questions. After three questions, I will give you the Sky Eye!"
Xudu pointed a finger, and a coffee table suddenly appeared. He sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and said calmly: "Interesting, I haven't met anyone as interesting as you for a long time, and I'm really reluctant to let you go." eat you."
"It doesn't matter. Ever since I abandoned my true body and sank into this bottomless abyss, I haven't spoken to anyone for a long time. Just ask me. Whether you answer or not depends on my mood."
Li Daoxuan asked the first question.
"Is the empty belly in Yinshan a fake?"
Xudu took a sip of tea and said calmly: "Whether it is true or not is an illusion, it is not easy to distinguish, or even impossible to define."
"You think the empty belly in Yinshan is fake, but he does possess my true body, so he can hide it from Qing Yi, but if you want to say he is real, his soul is incomplete."
Li Daoxuan's eyes lit up and he said: "So you used some kind of secret method to divide your Yang Gods. Most of the Yang Gods sneaked into the River Styx to wait for the tribulation, while the remaining Yang Gods occupied the real body and acted as a cover. You pushed me out to resist the robbery!"
He finally figured it out. The empress saw the empty belly in the Yin Mountain and found that he seemed to have killed his own cultivation. In fact, it was not his cultivation but the soul of the Yang God that was killed!
But because the other party occupies the real body, the empress said that it is not a clone.
The reason why the refining of the Supreme Gold Liquid failed was because the empty belly in the Xuanyuan Cauldron was due to the Yang God being missing, or even missing a lot!
Xudu did not answer directly, but looked at Li Daoxuan with more admiration and said, "You are very smart."
"Second question, after dividing your soul and losing your true body, you will inevitably fall into weakness now. How can you survive the catastrophe?"
Xudu smiled slightly, and with a wave of his hand, he solved the illusion.
Suddenly the cold Styx enveloped Li Daoxuan again, and the flame in his hand quickly extinguished.
Li Daoxuan's body was stiff and motionless, as if he was immobilized.
Countless ghost hands grabbed onto his body.
This time, there is no longer the protection of Buddha's light, because Ksitigarbha's cassock is held by the Ghost King of Xudu.
He looked at Li Daoxuan and said with a smile: "You are stalling for time and seeking information. Why don't I use your trick to get the cassock back?"
Three updates today, this is the first.
