Leng Fan heard from the words of the old man Xinde that he was also a person with a story, and the old man's eyes flashed a little after he finished speaking.

Leng Fan was very interested in the war between the Western Underworld and the Eastern Hell Realm, so he wanted to ask more questions, and said, "There is a war between the Western Underworld and the Eastern Hell Realm, but there will always be a reason for the war, right?

The old man Xinde replied: "Of course, it is for resources, whether it is our world or this world, resources are always the most desired thing for the powerful." Here, the soul is the resource that builds into this world, and everyone revolves around it. ”

After thinking about it, Leng Fan asked again: "I also want to know how souls came to this world? What will they go through? Do people from the West come directly to the underworld, while we people from the East go directly to hell?"

Old Man Xinde replied, "No, souls from the human world will appear in the River Styx, between the underworld and hell. This river is called the River Styx in the underworld, but on the other side of Hell, the name of this river is the River Lethe. When a person dies, his soul descends from heaven and falls into the river. At that time, they would have two options, one was to go to the underworld and the other was to go to hell. ”

When he said this, Leng Fan interjected: "Easterners should choose hell, and Westerners will choose the underworld, isn't that the case?"

Old Man Xinde shook his head and replied, "On the contrary, most Westerners choose to go to hell, while we Easterners choose the underworld. ”

"Why is that? I don't understand, it's completely impossible. Leng Fan asked.

The old man Xinde let out a bitter smile and replied: "Because they have lived all their lives, and when they die, they know that the gods they have believed in all their lives have not blessed them, so they would rather believe in other people's gods than believe in their own gods." ”

Leng Fan was silent, and then he laughed and said: "It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous, those gods who worshipped all their lives when they were alive, but they didn't believe them after they died, this person's heart!"

The old man Xinde laughed for a while, and then said: "It's true, believe in things for a lifetime, and when you finally die, you know that everything you believe is wrong." But they don't know even more, what they don't believe may disappoint them even more, in the words of our hometown, the world is as black as a crow, and only if you are strong can you protect the people around you. ”

Leng Fan nodded, then thought of a question and asked, "New and old, you said that most of the people in the East choose to come here, why do I see that almost all the people on the street are Westerners." ”

The old man Xinde replied: "Since you can see it, then I will tell you that after the souls who came to the underworld from the east came here, they almost became the food of the underworld, and they would be enclosed in one place, and then the souls would be divided into three, six, nine and so on. Souls with high levels will be sent to the mouths of those who are powerful in the underworld, and the middle souls are the food for the strong in the underworld, and the remaining souls will be scattered all over the underworld to become the rations of many people in the underworld. However, this still does not satisfy the desires of all the people of the underworld, so when there is no war between Hell and the underworld, there will often be battles for 'food'. ”

Leng Fan exhaled, very angry in his heart, but more powerless, and despair of the underworld and the hell world, and said, "After we die, won't we be like livestock?"

The old man Xinde said directly: "It's livestock, and it's the same in hell, the Western soul goes to them, and it's the same here." Therefore, when the rulers do not have a higher soul to absorb, war will break out, and the purpose of the war is to snatch livestock from the other side. ”

Leng Fan shook his head, listening to these words, he felt that the cruelty of this world surpassed almost all interfaces.

Leng Fan asked: "Since this world is a world of cannibalism, why didn't I find a large-scale eating of the souls next to me along the way, and only saw the winner eat the loser on the competition platform." ”

The old man Xinde explained: "This is the rule set by the Hades, as long as you get the approval of the Hades, you can exist freely in the underworld. But there is only a competition platform, and those who are willing to compete on the stage, the loser will be devoured by the winner, so as to get a stronger soul power. Those who want to get stronger and stronger in the underworld will choose to fight on the tournament platform. ”

"Understood. Leng Fan replied.

After thinking about it, the old man Xinde said, "But you don't have to worry about this, because you have great power in your own right. Even if you die later, when you come to this world, you will have great power, and those who want to devour you may be devoured by you. The current powerful people in the underworld and the hell realm are also very powerful people in their lifetimes. ”

Leng Fan was not a little happy after hearing this, and then sighed and asked, "New and old, since you know so well, what should I do now?" Is it really for me to give up this goal?"

Leng Fan's deal with the Holy See, from his heart, was a thousand unwilling. However, he had to get the news of the old man from the other party, and only then could he be able to save the old man.

The old man Xinde replied: "If you want to live, you have to give up, I know you are very strong, but you are not the strongest here." Those gods of the Holy See know how terrible the underworld is, and I lied to them just to trick them into the underworld, but I didn't expect them to trick you in. If it had been someone else, I would have directed him to his death. ”

Leng Fan smiled dryly and said, "Thank you for not selling me, I Leng Fan will definitely repay this kindness." ”

The old man Xinde shook his head and said, "There is no kindness, I dug this pit originally, and it was all because of me that you jumped in." After standing up for a while, he then smiled: "Since you are here, and I see that you are still very pleasing to the eye, I can't let you come in vain." ”

Hearing this, Leng Fan felt that the words behind the old man Xinde would definitely be very attractive.

Old Man Xinde then smiled and said, "Here in the underworld, you can completely improve your soul power, and a strong soul power will not be weaker than immortal power. ”

Leng Fan nodded, his perception of soul power was no worse than anyone else's, people with strong soul power would have hesitation that made the enemy dare not venture when facing a powerful enemy.

"Old and new, you're not going to let me devour other people's souls, are you? Leng Fan replied while thinking.

Old Man Xinde laughed and said, "I don't even know how you cultivated such a powerful power, how could such a benevolent person come to this side." Shouldn't the strong be denied by their relatives?"

Leng Fan did not deny these 'truths' that Leng Fan said to the old man of Xinde, because in the world of cultivating immortals, he saw that more than ninety percent of the strong people were trampled on the blood of others. Like him and his master to the current state, they all rely on their own efforts and opportunities.

"Old and new, everybody is different. Leng Fan said.

Old Man Xinde took out a palm-sized box from under the table and said, "There is one thing in this box, which I accidentally got a long time ago, in this world, whether it is up to the Hades or down to the beggars on the street, they will give everything they want to have. ”

Hearing this, Leng Fan was curious, what is this thing that can make people in the underworld so crazy. The next moment, the old man Xinde opened the box and saw that there was a white hairpin, a very oriental headdress.

"Old and new, you're not joking, are you?

The old man Xinde took the hairpin out of the box and replied: "Yes, this is the hairpin that we orientals are used to, and when I first saw it, I couldn't believe that this thing would have such a great attraction in the underworld. ”

Leng Fan immediately asked: "New and old, this thing is in your hands, you must know what this thing is for? I can't perceive what is unique about it yet." ”

The old man Xinde replied: "I'm ashamed to say that this thing has been in my hands for more than 20 years, but my perception of him is almost the same as your current feeling, I don't know anything. So, this thing is placed here for me, it is a collector's item, and it is also a talisman. ”

Leng Fan took the hairpin from the old and new hands, and then put it in front of his eyes to observe it carefully, and after a while, he still didn't find anything special. But he believed that this hairpin was definitely not a mortal thing, otherwise it would not have caused a vibration in the underworld.

"Old and new, I'll take this thing. Leng Fan replied, not polite at all.

The old and new smiled, and from his smile, he could feel that he had a sense of relief, guessing that he should have sighed that he had finally given away this hot potato.

Old Man Xinde said again: "You can rest here today, and you can spend the night thinking about what you should do next, whether to leave the underworld or continue to be in the underworld. Oh, by the way, you probably don't know the flow of time between the underworld and the mortal world. I'm telling you, a year of your time in the underworld has only passed in the mortal world. ”

Leng Fan: "......"

Subsequently, Leng Fan lived in the luxurious villa of the old man Xinde in the underworld. And just when he was resting on the bed, several figures outside the villa flickered, surrounding the villa, they seemed to want to rush into the villa, but they were worried about something, so they kept wandering around.

A few hours later, that is, the next day, Leng Fan came out of the room, he actually didn't rest all night, thinking about whether he would go or stay. Finally, at this moment, he decided on his course.

"New and old, I decided to stay in the underworld, I have been facing difficulties since I was a child, this is what I have always insisted on, otherwise I would not have achieved what I am now. Leng Fan said to the old man Xinde.
