Chapter 222: The world has changed, and the years are boundless
Wu Kong stepped up to the huge mountain.
Suddenly, sensing that there was a change between heaven and earth, above the firmament of the underworld, rolling clouds continued to surge in this direction, and then flowed away in another direction, as if there were immeasurable wind and clouds from a distance towards this side.
Turning his head to stare, Wu Kong's eyes bloomed with golden light.
A hundred miles away, in the vast atmosphere, King Qin Guang sat on a huge throne, surrounded by the Yin God to serve, and there were ghost soldiers carrying a large sedan chair, and the throne was placed on the sedan chair.
In a more distant place, there was a faint figure of a fallen angel, avoiding the place where King Qin Guang was.
At this time, the Qin Guang Dynasty arched his hand slightly.
Wu Kong was silent for a while, and also clasped his fists and saluted over there.
"With Lao Mingjun to send him off, Wu was terrified. β
Wu Kong can feel the strength of King Qin Guang now, most of the underworld belongs to his divine domain, if all the strength bursts out, it will be stronger than the Hades King Hades who was awakened before, and the calculation ability is definitely above the Hades who has not completely recovered before, Wu Kong is not an opponent at all now.
Then King Qin Guang had no hostility, and only bowed slightly towards Wu Kong: "Qin, send the old man a ride." β
With a flick of his right hand, the pressure on the huge mountain on this side was suddenly reduced.
The surrounding yin spirits, walking down from above, are no longer urgent, and climbing up from below is not as difficult as before for the time being.
Wu Kong suddenly raised his head and stared into the void, and he actually saw the invisible chain of laws of the Dao Dao appearing, which only the transcendent divine eyes could see.
The chain was torn open by an invisible force, revealing a huge gap.
Wu Kong swept over. Instantly flew up.
At great speed, up the mountain.
Not long after, when I arrived at the top of the mountain, I saw that there was a huge space hole in the sky, like a heavenly cave, and the cave wall had a rock wall like mud condensed by a chaotic atmosphere.
It looked like the underworld below was like the bottom of a huge sinkhole, with a mountain in the middle, and a bridge on the top of the mountain that connected to the walls of the pit.
pit wall. There is a passage that spirals upwards. There are many ghosts wandering around here.
Wu Kong's figure soared into the sky, flew extremely high in an instant, and then floated to the side.
It turned out to be a huge bottomless deep cave, and the cave wall had a plank road that was constantly wrapping and stretching downward. Many ghosts walk here.
"This is the passage of the ghost to the underworld after death...... This is a normal passage. What Quy Nhin Vu took me before. Actually, it's a strange way. β
Wu Kong's heart was enlightened.
From then on, when I walked out, I saw that there were mountains and forests outside the cave, and beyond the mountains and forests was a thick mist.
Fly all the way forward. Finally flew out of the area.
It happened to be dark before dawn outside, and Wu Kong turned around and vaguely saw the dark qi.
After a while, the sun was rising on the horizon, and the sun was shining on this side.
When I looked at it again, the mountains and forests behind me were filled with a thick white mist, and there were some ruins of the ancient city in the fog, and there were flowers, trees and weeds everywhere.
"Where space overlaps?" Wu Kong thoughtfully said.
"In this place, at night, the space of the two worlds will overlap, so only the strong people with advanced spiritual cultivation can enter and exit, and now it is daytime, so naturally there is no Netherworld Ghost Realm. β
Wu Kong's divine thoughts swept around, and found that there were several mortals on the hill in front of him, a middle-aged man, a young man in his twenties, and a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy.
I couldn't help but move slightly: "Is this the Tianxuan Empire or the Mercenary Empire?"
They flew in that direction, and before they could land, the three of them turned around and fled in fright.
Wu Kong intercepted in front of them, and the middle-aged man led by him hurriedly knelt down: "The king spares his life." β
Wu Kong said: "I'm not a king, who are you, what are you doing here?"
"We are the good people of the mountain, and we have come here to find the elixir to worship the temple. β
"Huh, enshrine the temple?"
"Yes. The middle-aged man responded.
Wu Kong frowned: "What kind of place is this?"
The three seemed to be taken aback by Wu Kong's words, and the middle-aged man couldn't help but ask, "Are you...... Did you come out of there, that mountain?"
Wu Kong snorted, and the middle-aged man was so frightened that he hurriedly lowered his head: "This is the realm of Jiuquyin Mountain, it is rumored that there are hundreds of ghosts walking at night here, and there are ghost soldiers who take advantage of the way, anyone who approaches here, even if the martial arts are strong and strong, they will die unexpectedly, and occasionally someone can escape, and they will soon go crazy, or they will fall seriously ill and die."
"There is a Yinshan City near here, we are ordinary good people in the city, because in recent days, the temple needs a large amount of elixir alchemy, and after sending the task down, every household must offer a certain amount of elixir. The elixir near Yinshan City has been exhausted, and we can only risk the death scab to come to this inaccessible approach, and enter the mountain early, hoping to enter a little deeper......"
Wu Kong asked in a deep voice, "What temple?"
"It's the Xuanming Temple. β
"What kind of deity is enshrined in the temple?"
"Yes......" The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment before he said, "It's the great Xuanming Goddess XiΓ ." β
"Xuanming Goddess?" Wu Kong frowned: "What's the matter?"
The middle-aged man's head touched the ground, and he only lowered his head and said, "I don't know ......"
"Is this the Tianxuan Empire or the Mercenary Empire?"
"Mercenary Empire, Northeast Province, Canglang County. The middle-aged man replied in detail.
"It doesn't seem like there was such a temple here before, did it?"
Wu Kong knew that in the previous four big countries, there was no country with a so-called temple with incense, and even if there was, there was also an ancestral spirit temple, or an ancient temple as a ruin, and there was very little incense. The real incense is the place where the ancestral spirits are worshipped.
"It was new more than half a year ago, and the villain doesn't know the specific situation. The middle-aged man said.
Wu Kong pondered for a while, and with a wave of his right hand, the elemental power in his body condensed into a united crystal, which was thrown to the ground like an elemental crystal in his hand.
Swept over, flew high into the air, and disappeared in an instant.
The three mortals were stunned for a moment, as if in a dream. But in the end, he was pleasantly surprised to take the elemental spar.
Wu Kong is high in the sky. Hiding behind the clouds, he performed "Seeing the Earth".
Thousands of miles in full view.
Where there are treasures and where there are mineral deposits, it is clear, and even, where there are many people, you can see it. Although it is difficult to see the face of a person clearly, the qi and blood and various fluctuations emanating from a person's body can be seen clearly with the eyes of heaven.
"That's the temple over there, what a powerful breath!!"
Wu was shocked.
In a city not far away, inside the huge new temple, a strong golden light rose into the sky. The power of God is vast.
"There must be a god who exists. I wonder if it's the real body or the incarnation?"
It doesn't matter if it's a real person or an incarnation. Wu Kong didn't want to come into contact with this god now.
He turned around and flew off into the distance.
Came to another inaccessible place, with a swamp below, and there were no temples for a thousand miles.
Wu Kong was not worried about disturbing the gods. That's reassuring. Unleash your full strength. The elemental power between heaven and earth is continuously absorbed into the body, and replenished into the inner heaven and earth.
Soon. The elemental power between heaven and earth was sucked out of the void, and there were no elements in the air thousands of miles away.
This goes into the ground again, searching for some veins of elemental crystals. If there is no strongman to guard it, he forcibly extracts the entire ore vein and seals it into the small world in his body, so that his background is deeper.
In just a few days, Wu Kong's foundation has become a little stronger, and the cultivation realm has stabilized, and the foundation that was slightly unstable because he absorbed too much dark qi before has basically been solved. The elemental power contained in the chaotic qi is balanced with demonic energy and underworld energy.
The divine power in the chaotic qi is in a weak position, but it is not in the way. Because, the main body that constitutes chaos must be the power of the elements, and the power of the elements is the majority, which will not affect the balance, and the power of the elements is too small, which will lead to the imbalance.
At this time, Wu Kong had the leisure to inquire about the news.
"Regarding the whereabouts of the six dragon balls, and about the situation of the female Han Kingdom, we must find out. β
Wu Kong searched for one city after another, and found that there were temples or temples in large cities and small cities.
The fluctuations of divine power emitted in each city are different, and some large cities even exude the fluctuations of the divine power of several gods at the same time, and it is not known whether these gods form an alliance or are enemies facing each other and coexisting in the same city.
In the big towns and villages around the city, there are often some altars or statues of gods. Even in villages, there are ancestral spirits or altars dedicated to mountain gods, and even statues of other gods.
The problem is that in the past, these altars did not have any divine power, but now these altars often contain faint fluctuations of divine power.
"Are all the gods revealed, and are spreading faith in the world?"
Wu Kong's brows furrowed.
With his current strength, some ordinary gods, or those who have not been awakened for a long time, are not his opponents. But if two or three gods come at the same time, as long as one of them blocks Wu Kong a little, and the other one sneaks up on the side, he will be a wolf, and he is likely to be defeated.
"The situation is not good, the situation in the world seems to have become complicated. β
After hesitating for a long time, he changed his body shape and appearance, changed his muscles and bones, and the aura on his body completely converged, turning into a martial artist who seemed to only have cultivation below the Holy Realm.
At first glance, the appearance is neither handsome nor ugly, so-so, not too old and not too young, in short, it is a very ordinary kind.
Wu Kong chose a small city, and there was only one shrine in the city, although the believers of that god were very strong here, but once something went wrong, Wu Kong had a great chance of escaping, and could even defeat the other party.
It's just that as soon as he entered this city, he found that he was a little bit of a stranger.
The entire city was shrouded in a faint divine radiance, and the "Perspective Earth" magic used by Wu Kong to see the strength of the qi and blood of the people in the city was not accurate.
The divine power here interferes with the detection of magic.
At this time, there were a large number of strong people gathered in the city, there were men and women, old and young, and Wu Kong had seen the scene differently, among the people here, there were not a few men and women in pairs, and it was not that men returned to men and women.
To Wu Kong's consternation, some women even had swollen stomachs, and they didn't know whether they were pregnant after drinking the spring water or because of other reasons.
All the way from the city gate to the "Drunken Holy Building" by the activity square in the center of the city, I found that there were at least ten strong people in the Holy Realm encountered on the road, and the strong people near the Holy Realm were densely packed.
Every strong person has some kind of artifact on his body to a greater or lesser extentβnot a very powerful artifact. It's just that those items have a faint aura of other divine power on them.
Even some strong people have irrepressible divine power fluctuations directly emitting from their bodies.
"How can there be so many strong people gathered in this city?"
Wu Kong suddenly heard that on the "Drunken Holy Building" next to him, someone vaguely asked, so he went upstairs and found a place to sit down.
Listening to the conversation of the warrior all the way, the male voice said: "I heard that in this city, it is the sphere of influence of the goddess of wealth, which is different from the god of wealth and martial wealth, and it is also different from other gods. Just pay enough money. You don't even need to believe in her, you can be baptized by the priest's divine power in the temple, lift the curse on your body, and let your cultivation continue to improve. Don't be affected by the curse of Na Ji Huang.
"But I didn't expect it. I arrived in this city. It was really strange to find that there were so many strong people gathered here. β
A woman's voice said, "I heard that some gods are dissatisfied with the goddess of wealth, and something big is going to happen here." Therefore, countless people have gathered here. β
"I've heard a different story. Another man's voice said, "It is said that the entrance to an ancient secret realm has appeared nearby, and it is likely that there is a great secret inside, so the gods from other places have sent believers here." β
"How can there be such a thing?"
Wu Kong listened for a while, and suddenly his heart moved, and he looked in the direction of the city gate.
"Why don't you let us leave this city?, believers in the goddess of wealth, when did you become so domineering?" a warrior shouted.
But on the tower of the city gate, an old male man sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, wearing a priest's robe, suddenly opened his eyes, and with a palm downward, he slapped the warrior who was clamoring to leave the city gate to the ground, although he was not dead, but he was seriously injured.
The others looked at each other.
"Hmph, the believers of the goddess of wealth are too domineering, others are afraid of you, but I am not afraid...... I am a believer in His Majesty, the god of war. A man with tangled muscles and two giant knives on his back walked towards the city gate, walking step by step, the battle aura on his body became stronger and stronger, and he actually carried divine power.
"Hmph, which god of war?" the old priest on the tower of the city gate asked lightly.
The male warrior was furious: "Look for death!!"
Grabbing the giant sword, he soared into the sky and pounced on the city gatehouse.
As a result, a golden giant hand poked out from above, grabbed the male warrior, pinched it hard, and with a bang, the flesh and blood exploded.
The crowd gasped.
"From this point on, the city is not allowed to enter or leave. The pastor said.
"Why?" was still asked aloud from a distance.
But he didn't answer.
"There must be a great secret in this city. Someone said secretly.
"Indeed, let the goddess of wealth not hesitate to offend the god of war......"
"Hehe, speaking of which, there are many gods with the title of God of War, except for some sleeping gods, there are as many as seven gods of war who have woken up now, and they are in different countries...... Their followers believe that their gods are the true gods of war, and it is no wonder that ......"
"Well, let's not say a word, the gods are sensitive, and calling their names will be heard by them. β
"That's not necessarily, we have a divine object on our body, which is enough to cut off the induction of the gods, as long as we don't call the true understanding of the gods, as long as the title of the gods is not unique, as long as we don't count against the gods, we won't be induced. β
"By the way, you say, what is the big secret here, and why do the believers of the Temple of Fortune not hesitate to prevent everyone from leaving?"
"Who knows? Wait, the secret will be revealed. β
"Speaking of which, there's a big secret here, so why only prevent people from leaving and not from entering?"
"Hmph, if it is forbidden to enter, then the gods in other places will definitely be easy to find the strangeness in this city, and they will soon pay attention to this side, if they can only enter and not go out, it will not be easy to find the abnormality so quickly...... However, it won't be kept secret for long. β
When Wu Kong heard this, his attention shifted to other directions, and he found that the people in the city were also talking about these things.
Wu Kong's face was a little gloomy.
"The people of this world seem to have adapted to the existence of gods in this world. When did these gods come out, and even if they did, they wouldn't be so fast, could they?"
Wu Kong's heart moved, and suddenly thought of a possibility.
He found the shopkeeper in the restaurant and said, "I have some questions for you." β
The shopkeeper's face turned a little pale: "Guest...... Excuse me, guest officer, I ...... I, the little one, would have answered if I had known. β
Wu Kong was stunned for a moment, then smiled, understood the mind of the shopkeeper, and said, "That's it, I originally wanted to inquire about the situation of the temple here......"
Speaking of this, I saw that the shopkeeper's legs were weak and he almost sat on the ground.
"Sure enough...... This guy is worried about me asking about the situation here. If you don't answer no, if you don't answer, you will always suffer, and that's where the little people are in trouble...... Unfortunately, he was not decisive enough, and if he found an opportunity to accidentally fall and fall head-on, he would not have to face this danger here. β
Thinking of this, Wu Kong smiled and said to the shopkeeper: "However, seeing that you are scared like this, it is estimated that you are a coward, and you will not know any secrets." I'll just ask something else...... How much do you know about the Tianxuan Empire, the current emperor?"
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, frowned and thought for a while, and then said cautiously: "Now...... The emperor of the Tianxuan Empire, His Majesty, should still be Sun Dakong's Majesty...... Since he ascended the throne ten years ago......"
Ten years ago?!!!
Wu Kong's heart jumped.
Ten years have passed in the world?
unimaginable.
Under the underworld, it's only been less than a year.
At this time, the shopkeeper continued: "Since he ascended the throne ten years ago, there have been continuous rebellions in the Tianxuan Empire, and in just a few months, the princes of the Eighteen Roads have joined forces to attack Sun. But later I heard that Sun Dakong suddenly announced that Buddhism would be the state religion, and temples would be built in the country, and the ancient Buddhas would be respected.
"Since then, all of a sudden, no one dares to rebel. Some people want people to raise the flag and raise the army, and then they all ......"
Speaking of this, he said cautiously: "There is no Buddha in our country now, so we can talk nonsense here, if it is in the Tianxuan Empire, you can't talk nonsense...... However, the current Tianxuan Empire also exists in name only, and many cities have declared their own independence, and the city lords themselves have made themselves marquis or kings, some have asked the royal family for titles, and some have simply set themselves up as kings. β
Wu Kong's pupils contracted slightly, and then he smiled: "Then why doesn't Sun Dakong hold a grudge against those city lords?"
"Of course. However, what city does not have a temple now, without the protection of a temple? Not to mention the Tianxuan Empire, even our mercenaries...... Well, even our country, the country of the female Han and the country of the stone woman, all of them are kings and kingdoms, and there are many kingdoms, and countless gods who have never heard of them have miracles manifested in the world. (To be continued......)
