Chu Guanmeng didn't understand Lin Du's idea of digging around in his own home, but he chose to respect it.
"Why this tree?" Chu Guanmeng admitted that he is not as strong as Lin Du now, but he is not without this level of sensitivity. "It is obviously the place with the least evil spirit."
Lin Du laughed, "Yes, this is the only place in the courtyard where you can't feel the three poisons. Doesn't that explain the problem?"
When Emperor Fusang came over just now to help her strengthen the power of the seal, Lin Du could see that the power was added to the treasure tree.
Chu Guanmeng was thoughtful when he heard the words, "Then if you open it now, won't you alarm others?"
Lin Du is not such a reckless person.
"I didn't plan to drive so quickly, but Emperor Fuso is here." Lin Du held the folding fan, "I am a person who wants to go west when others tell me to go east."
Fusang's arrival made Lin Du understand the center of the formation.
Just like the eye of a typhoon is mostly calm, the center of many formations that focus on suppression is also the calmest.
After hearing this, Chu Guanmeng was convinced. He was taught by Taozu himself, taught by the three priests and the former Winter God, but he was still a rebellious boy when he returned.
Of course, if Lin Du wasn't a traitor, he wouldn't be friends with her.
"So when you saw Fusang just now, you deliberately carried the fan behind your back and asked me to quickly create a mirror flower and water moon for you? You? I thought you were afraid that Emperor Fusang would come to you to accuse you, so that you could escape at any time. .”
Chu Guanmeng lay lazily on the ground and stretched. The next moment, the mirror shattered.
The scene in the courtyard seemed to have remained unchanged, but Fuso's blazing divine power had disappeared.
Chu Guanmeng chewed and swallowed the power exerted on the seal, burped, raised his hand and licked his paws, "It's so spicy."
A heavy iron brush with intricate carvings appeared in Lin Du's hand. The white-haired immortal raised the pen and poured in his immortal power. Runes of various colors appeared in the air one by one, and then the power of different rules between heaven and earth was introduced into it.
Dozens of runes shone with divine light, floating in front of Lin Du.
Chu Guanmengquan watched from the sidelines, not realizing how terrifying this scene was to others.
A Dao Lord raises his hand to invoke the rules of heaven and earth, and the runes form a formation. In an instant, the formation is formed, which is no worse than Yuan Lord.
The people in the Heavenly Palace only thought that Lin Du's magical power was to use the formation to disperse the chaos, but they did not know that Lin Du raised his hand to form the formation, and the power of the order and rules was also instantaneous.
After finishing the last talisman, Lin Du put away his pen. When he raised his eyes, the runes rapidly changed and flowed around the treasure tree. Immortal power was released from the folding fan, and the formations formed in succession, and then quickly sank from the air into the ground.
In an instant, Lin Du felt a terrifying roaring sound, evil energy struggling upwards and biting, the eternal hot breath dispersing, the divine light above the treasure tree dimmed instantly, and the red rope was extremely hot for an instant.
"So that's it." Under the pressure of such a muddy hot flash, the Cangyi Immortal said in a calm and indifferent tone, "Kaiyang is really right."
Chu Guanmeng struggled to climb onto Lin Du's shoulder. Under the roots of the hanging treasure tree, the mud was surging. It seemed that it was due to the rare contact with fresh fairy energy. The black muddy abyss was constantly bubbling with bubbles, but if you look closely, , that is not a bubble at all, but...
human face.
Like hundreds of people who accidentally fell into the mud or asphalt, their faces were horrified, just like the disguised picture of hell, even... even more ferocious and terrifying than the disguised picture of hell, with unspeakable ferocious evil energy everywhere, and the three poisons rolling out. , which makes people's minds dizzy. It is clearly silent, but it seems that there are countless people screaming and resenting.
Chu Guanmeng felt a little nauseous, and her stomach churned, "I feel like I'm going to vomit."
It retched twice, quickly jumped off Lin Du's shoulder, and actually vomited.
"No, it's too disgusting."
"What's so disgusting?" Lin Du still didn't make any move. "It's a human face. It has two eyes and a mouth. It's made of flesh and bones. It's three big black holes. What's there to be afraid of?"
What she said sounded a bit strange and too heartless.
Chu Guanmeng turned his head and looked at the person standing in the center. Could it be that he was affected by the three poisons?
While he was talking, a strange demon fetus climbed out ferociously. It had just struggled to climb out above the shoulders, and it was already bigger than the trunk of the suppressed white jade tree.
Lin Du, however, still stood still, as if he was frightened.
The ferocious dark demon roared, looked down at the tiny immortal in front of him, and then raised his claws. However, the moment he was about to touch Lin Du, he was blocked by a blazing divine power.
The returning Emperor Fuso reappeared in the courtyard without immediately blaming him. The divine power soaring into the sky suddenly burned with a temperature even more terrifying than the scorching sun at noon.
The evil demon wrapped in the divine light was burned and twisted in an instant, and the three poisons steamed. In the fire light, the evil demon dissipated in an instant as if he was being tortured in a real purgatory.
The treasure tree lifted up by the formation lowered itself again, and Emperor Fusang raised his hand to form a seal, sealing the source of the evil energy in the entire upper world again.
Lin Du fixedly looked at the sealing handprint, and then suddenly came back to his senses, "Thank you Emperor Fusang for saving me. I am reckless. I think the light of this precious tree is too dazzling and disturbs my rest. I want to transplant it, but I didn't expect this. I suppressed such evil things, but I was careless and fell into this trap. I hope the emperor will atone for his sins."
She seemed to be in shock, her face was pale and her gray eyes were filled with panic.
Emperor Fusang immediately waved his hand, "It doesn't matter. It's because no one told you that it's best not to touch all the decorations in this mansion. If you do, the feng shui will change and there will be errors in the suppression formation. You are still young and have not been in the heaven for long. , it’s their fault.”
Lin Du cupped his hands and bowed his waist, thanking him again and again.
A ray of divine power held her up, and Lin Du took advantage of the situation, but there was a stabbing sound and white smoke came out of the wide blue sleeves.
This time it was Fuso's turn to apologize, "Sorry, I didn't know your clothes could withstand my magical power. It's my fault."
"Now that you have entered the Heavenly Palace and are the only Taoist Lord in Sanyuan Mansion, it would be helpful to ask Xuannv to make you robes." Fusang said as he passed on an order.
Lin Du thanked her again. Fusang saw that she was young and kindly reminded her, "The gods suppressed here are the gods who fell hundreds of thousands of years ago. Do you know the incense and fire Shinto?"
Lin Du nodded, "Of course I know."
"That's it." Fusang was tall and majestic. Ordinary immortals looked like little chickens in front of him. He seemed to be aware of the difference. When talking to Lin Du, he always bowed slightly and softened the incense divine way. Come slowly.
"This Fallen Angel is the original person who became a god through incense. Although it is said that the power of wishes can lead to virtue, the power of wishes and merits are actually two different things. This Fallen Angel has great merits and power of wishes. Everyone believed in her earlier. It was also ranked among the Four Imperial Guards, but it's a pity..."
He paused and said, "The power of willing will come back and hurt her. The greed of those people ruined her."
Fusang said with great regret, "If she doesn't have the willpower, she doesn't have enough spiritual power. If she has the willpower, she will be poisoned by a steady stream of greed, anger and ignorance. We couldn't detect it before, but when things broke out, we realized that she had been poisoned." She couldn't bear it. The three thousand worlds were prone to disasters and the people's livelihoods were filled with resentment, which made her become a fallen angel."
"She can only claim to be a god before returning to the ruins. What's more, all the incense Taoists under her, without her holy and powerful heart, have been harmed by the three poisons, and they have been in high positions for a long time, which has caused many harms. Immortals and small worlds.”
"This matter was gradually discovered by the people around the Heavenly Palace. Only then did we clean up all the Incense and Fire Divine Paths and deal with them according to the rules of heaven."
"Originally we thought the matter had calmed down, but who knew, after the God's fall, we discovered that her believers in those natural disasters stayed in the human world and were not accepted by the underworld. They were bound by the contract between the statues in the shrine and the fulfillment of their previous wishes. , and became a weird evil spirit in the world."
"These demonic cannibal essences and blood souls, after being cultivated, continuously attached to the fallen angel's body from all directions, and all poured into the upper world. This is the birth of the evil demon."
"All the immortals from the Celestial Palace came out in full force to exterminate those evil spirits. Only then did we know that something happened to the souls of the Fallen Angel believers, and they themselves were harmed by the three poisons and were not allowed to transfer to the underworld. The Fallen Angel wanted to take those evil spirits with them. The soul was able to eliminate the three poisons at the same time, and then we had such a seal."
There were endless vicissitudes and regrets in Fusang's tone, which was completely different from that of his apprentice Kaiyang, "This is also an old thing. Nowadays, the little immortal officials have changed one after another. Naturally, they don't know the number of ten." That catastrophe thousands of years ago.”
After hearing this, Lin Du suddenly asked, "What you are talking about happened hundreds of thousands of years ago. Kaiyang Xingjun is only ten thousand years old, so why do you say it as if you have experienced it yourself?"
"This is another matter." A trace of sorrow flashed in Fusang's eyes, "Maybe it was because of the loosening of the seal. Less than ten thousand years ago, Kaiyang was about the same age as you and experienced a seal loosening. The overflow thing.”
"The Heavenly Palace was unprepared, and some people were killed and injured, but they were suppressed later. Our Lord Xing of the Dou Department knew more about this matter. After all, the Thirty-Third Heaven Realm is quite vast."
Lin Du thought thoughtfully when he heard the words. This is true. The Thirty-third Heaven is extremely vast. All the departments of the Heavenly Palace are far apart, not to mention the remote territories of various princes. Even the extremely fast dangers would have to fly. For a few days.
The Hanyue Secret Realm used to be just a small world scattered in a remote place in the Thirty-third Heaven.
Lin Du thanked me again, looking extremely well-behaved, "Thank you, Emperor, for your advice."
There is a separation of politics and religion in the Tiangong. The people of the Holy Disciple Tian are not very familiar with the affairs of the Tiangong, and the fighting department is not under the command of the Emperor. Even the Sanyuanjiu Mansion where she is located is a highly independent department that listens to orders but not propaganda.
If Emperor Fuso hadn't told her about it today, she might not be able to find records even if she looked through books everywhere.
The Heavenly Palace is not as comprehensive as the Dongming Realm, the Heavenly Palace and the Daozu's library, and it is not as comprehensive as the Supreme Sect's library. The books are all selected treasures.
Lin Du still misses the library that has everything.
Lin Du thought as he declined Emperor Fusang's invitation to move again, "I like to see the sea."
This was a reason that sounded extremely childish, and Emperor Fuso didn't force it. He repeatedly told him, "Don't move around in the future. It won't do you any good."
Lin Du nodded like a fool, and after the people left, he turned around with a smile but not a smile. The heavy iron folding fan turned over neatly in her hand, and was grabbed by the thin and slender hand.
Chu Guanmeng was completely confused by Lin Du's change of expression and didn't bother to ask.
This is not the first time that Lin Du has been a good boy in front of others, but a rebellious boy in the back.
"Did you hear that?" Lin Du asked.
Chu Guanmeng was confused, "Huh?"
Lin Du closed his eyes, "The strong voice of hatred and greed."
Chu Guanmeng snapped, jumped up and hit Lin Du on the knee. Lin Du must have been stunned, "Exorcise the devil, please."
It fell to the ground and spun around, "I'll go find Xia Wu for you."
Lin Du leaned over, picked up Mao Tuanzi, turned around and walked back to the mansion.
"Don't you think it's strange?"
"What's weird?"
Chu Guanmeng was puzzled, "I wonder why an emperor who is so open-minded, magnanimous, caring for the poor and loves the young can raise such a tough guy as Kaiyang?"
Lin Du shook his head, holding the fur dumpling in one hand, his wide sleeves hanging down and shining.
"Of course it's strange, why can't such a majestic divine king control his divine power to the point where it won't burn people?"
Lin Du stepped into the room with his feet, his eyes darkened, "I will never use the power of the coldest ice and snow against you casually."
She puffed up her sleeves calmly and said, "Don't worry, I have nothing to do these two days. Let's go down and have some fun?"
Chu Guanmeng lowered his head and realized that Lin Du's sleeves were undamaged. It seemed that they had just been covered with a layer of ice and snow power that belonged exclusively to Lin Du.
It rubbed its brain and felt that its brain in its original form was too small and it would be better to make it bigger.
But when you get older, you have to leave on your own.
Chu Guanmeng was caught in a dilemma and did not notice the rare gloom and coldness on Lin Du's face.
Lin Du wanted to go to the underworld, which was not feasible in itself, but Lin Du had good reasons and went to go on business. Specifically, he wanted to call on anyone to volunteer to go to the illusion of floating life, and by the way, he wanted to check the account books from a hundred thousand years ago.
She asked if she could trust people from Heaven, but not from Hades.
After hearing what the superior said, the poor judge was so frightened that a few more hairs fell out.
This guy is really thinking about all the bad debts that happened hundreds of thousands of years ago.
He squatted at the door and sighed. When the underworld officials under his hands saw it, they couldn't help but ask, "Why are you so sad, Lord Judge?"
"Why else!" The judges stood up one after another, wishing they could grab a bowl of Meng Po soup now and forget about it when they ask questions. "They are all that inexplicable Lingwei Dao Lord from the Heavenly Palace! He is less than two thousand years old, and he parachuted to San The cold yamen of Yuanjiu Mansion wants to stir up cold rice, but actually wants to attack us in the underworld!"
"Hey!" The Yin officials all opened their eyes when they heard this, "And where is Dao Lord who is only two thousand years old? I thought Dao Lord was already ten thousand years old."
"You are young and frivolous. After entering Tiangong, you probably want to do something big, but you don't dare to attack Tiangong. Hey, do you think the people below us are easy to bully?"
"I think he's just a fool!" The judge gritted his teeth, "How can a Dao Lord who is less than 2,000 years old be capable!"
Before the judge finished speaking, a somewhat familiar female voice came in, "I really don't have much ability. I just want to look through the book of life and death again, but this time, I probably won't have to lose my life."
The Yin officials all closed their mouths, stood straighter than when they had just died, their backs were stiff, and they hid behind the judge one by one.
The judge was so frightened that his face was whiter than when he had been dead for three days. He didn't even think about it. He was still thinking about why the voice sounded so familiar, so he subconsciously shouted, "Master Lingwei?"
A green figure appeared not far away, accompanied by Ghost Emperor Shen Tu, crossing a threshold and walking towards the judge's mansion.
In the gloomy ghost world, that figure does not appear to be out of place. It blends into the environment here better than the ghost emperors and Yin officials dressed in warm red and white. It is just the calm and cold immortal energy all over the body and the clothes on the hem. Huaguang still showed some differences.
The judge did not dare to raise his head and quickly bent down to salute.
"Your Majesty, no need to be polite, we are all acquaintances."
The female voice sounded again, and the judge turned eight hundred times in his mind, but he still couldn't figure out how he could interact with the Taoist Lord in the Heavenly Palace. When he stood up and took a look, he was almost scared out of his wits.
"Lin Du???"
"Hey." Lin Du said hello with a smile. He entered the house by a familiar route and turned to smile at Shen Tu. "Look, I said you don't need to lead the way. I have a good memory."
Shen Tu was helpless, "It's easy to scare them if you act like this."
The judge covered his little heart and said, "This is too scary. Lin Du, I didn't ask you to be rich and honorable. Why are you selling your acquaintances first when you are rich?"
Lin Du watched him climb up the pole and sat down, "This is not an excuse, otherwise how could I get down?"
The judge suddenly realized, "That's right."
She sat down and stretched out her hand, "Book of Life and Death."
The judge twitched his face and said, "Didn't you say you were looking for an excuse to come down and play?"
Lin Du stared at him, "What? No? Or do you want to shorten your life first?"
"How can that be possible? I'm just kidding, I can't shorten your life even if I have to." The judge chuckled and trotted over to deliver the account book, "However, I heard that the newly appointed Zhenye Zhenjun is from the Dongming Realm. Well, it seems like you are still your master. You just want to see your master? Why do you have to come down and watch? I was so scared that a lot of my hair fell out."
Lin Du took the book of life and death, "Although there are two books of life and death, one in the heavenly palace and one in the underworld, the functions are still different. You are doing practical things and have real contact with them."
She lowered her head and scanned the book of life and death with her consciousness, "It's better for you. Those who have died once are sincere."
Of course, what Fuso said must be verified.
Language, whether it is spoken or written, has the potential to be faked.
Seeing may not necessarily be believed. The world is full of falsehoods and whitewashing, but peace and stability are the aspirations of everyone.
Even Lin Du himself prefers light when walking in darkness.
While chatting with Shen Tu and the judge, she quickly reviewed the previous book of life and death.
Shen Tu noticed Lin Du's multitasking and raised his hand to smooth his hair. The beads in his hair clanked, "Why do you want to check the book of life and death from a hundred thousand years ago?"
"Curious." After Lin Du's spiritual consciousness expanded to the sea realm, it became powerful enough to quickly enter information and still be distracted by chatting.
Shen Tu held his head and remembered something, "The Ghost Emperor we have here only lasts for tens of thousands of years, or one hundred thousand years. That's a really long time."
Lin Du responded and found a lot of blanks from a hundred thousand years ago, which was consistent with what Fusang and Kaiyang said. The souls of believers who died after suffering disasters did not reach the underworld, so there were a lot of blanks.
She closed the book of life and death, raised her eyes calmly, looked at Shen Tu's lack of interest, and asked, "Under what circumstances can the soul not enter the underworld, except... well, a formation cultivator who is as powerful as me outside."
Shen Tu: ...You still know that you are quite capable.
She still thought about it seriously, "For example, the evil cultivator soul, the soul is scattered, and what else, the soul is in short supply, it is eaten by evil spirits or something."
Lin Du said, "If, I mean if, is it possible that after death, a person's soul is bound to the shrine by faith, and then you in the underworld can't snatch it away?"
Shen Tu frowned, "Your idea is very unique. I have never encountered it before."
"No," the Yin official below the judge said, "Lin Du, no, when Lingwei Daojun was still a child, didn't he once use his miraculous skills to send ghosts to the ground and send the soul of a Jingzhong array to the ground? Are you down?"
"It was so dangerous that Lord Dao sent some Yin Qi to that formation, so I almost couldn't grab it."
Lin Du held his head, "Oh, yes, that's right."
If the seal of all peoples is maintained in both directions through the power of wish, it is equivalent to the loyalty formation protecting the soul of that temple, and that spell is originally a trap set by the fallen angel fragment, that is, it comes from the fallen angel...
Lin Du sat up straight and was so frightened that the Yin official almost knelt down.
This is not because you are angry because you are settling old scores.
Lin Du turned to look at Shen Tu, "So without my intervention, those souls wouldn't be able to be recovered at all?"
Shen Tu nodded, "Yes, and one is fine. If there are a lot of them, you can't take them back no matter how hard you try."
Lin Du understood that what Fusang said might be true.
And the scene she saw in the original shrine had an explanation.
The Seal of the Ten Thousand People has bound the souls of countless believers and turned them into three poisons. However, because the ancient ruins have the natural suppression of the original energy, they can still retain a little bit of human appearance.
Where the three poisons became the devil's fetus, it was the human soul that formed the fetus, making the three poisons even more powerful.
Just because it was too long ago and sealed for too long, these evil spirits finally forgot that they were once humans, demons, and believers. They became monsters condensed with hatred, eating the flesh, flesh and souls of their former kind, and finally no longer human.
And the more powerful evil spirits are, the more humanoid they are, the more beautiful and luxurious they are. Isn't that... this is also their instinctive desire engraved in their ancient memories.
Lin Du took a deep breath and heard pearls clashing in his ears.
"You're already here, why don't you go somewhere with me?" Shen Tu stretched out his hand to her.
Lin Du stood up, but rarely hesitated, "Is she fine?"
Shen Tu nodded, "Very good and very strong, but he is not a god after all."
Lin Du shook his head and laughed, "It's best not to be a god."
"Okay, don't be like that group of people in Tiangong, who always like to play riddles, can you leave?" Shen Tu looked at her with his hands on his hips, bright and warm, like a ball of fire in the underworld.
Lin Du had no choice but to follow him, "Hey, how can we not be cautious when we are wandering in the heavenly palace? The sky is bright and we, the superiors, have to control our shadows when we walk. Believe it or not."
Shen Tu crossed his arms and said, "We ghost cultivators have no trace, so we don't know."
