CHAPTER XXI
Nianting Continent, Wuyu Mountain, Demon Abyss
At this time, in the Demon Abyss, only a pile of skeletons was left of Tu Ge's huge corpse scattered on the ground. It stands to reason that just one year is far from enough time for Tu Ge's body to decompose to this point.
Looking at Nan Xiao again, a black markings grew on his naked upper body, starting from the back and tail vertebrae and spreading to the neck, carefully identifying, this crooked black markings is actually the color of his blood vessels, through the skin, you can even faintly see the state of blood flow. And his eyes flashed with the same faint green light as Tu Ge's body, like two strange flames in the darkness.
Within this year, Nan Xiao fed Tu Ge's corpse, who would have thought that this divine beast that had subverted the demon world would now become Nan Xiao's tonic. However, eating Tu Ge was quite helpful to Nanxiao, and the Rakshasa Qi in his body had been fully refined and fused with him.
At this moment, just after midnight, Nanxiao sat cross-legged, and the breath of Rakshasa floated leisurely from the darkness. Ever since eating Tu Ge, Nan Xiao has gained the ability to see as if it were day in the dark. When he saw Rakshasa, he had long since lost his previous trembling appearance.
The breath of the rakshasa circled around him: "Do you know a magic weapon called Fear of Life?"
Nan Xiao pondered for a moment: "The fear that dealt with you back then?"
Rakshasa chuckled: "Exactly--to unlock the seal of the sky, you need to use this magic weapon, and the refining method of this magic weapon is stored in the Demon Realm, you go and find it." β
Nan Xiao's eyes showed a look of eagerness, he had been cultivating in this dark demon abyss for more than a year, and finally! Finally waited for this day! He stood up, although his heart was already surging, but his tone was still light: "I know." β
Rakshasa's aura suddenly dispersed, and gathered behind Nan Xiao, leaning into his ear: "Remember that you must come back once every nine days, otherwise the poison in your body will be poisoned, and the sins you have suffered for so long will be wasted." β
Nan Xiao didn't reply to him, and flew out of the abyss.
Outside the Demon Abyss, although the sky was only cloudy, it was still shaking his eyes for Nanxiao, who had not seen the light of day for such a long time. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Although the foot of Wufu Mountain is also a haze, compared to the turbid and foul stench in the Demon Abyss, this place is already a fresh place.
Nan Xiao walked casually for a while, until he was completely accustomed to the outside world, and he coldly focused his gaze on one place - that is the direction of Doro City - I want to get back all that I have lost!
Nianting Continent, Doro City, Sinking Palace
After returning to the city of Doro, Nanxiao was saddened by the restored prosperity in the city, so he did not linger, but went straight to the Underworld. What I didn't expect was that the entire Sinking Palace was set up with several barriers, and the power of this enchantment was strange, and it could really keep Nanxiao out.
A patrol team turned the corner and saw Nanxiao testing the enchantment, and immediately rushed over vigilantly to surround Nanxiao, and the leader of the team said, "Who is coming!"
Nan Xiao didn't talk to them either, he closed his eyes slightly, urged the spell and then opened it suddenly, and two gloomy green lights hit the group of demon soldiers. As long as the demon soldiers who came into contact with this green light would instantly burn, and in an instant, a sea of green fire ignited in front of Nanxiao's eyes.
After a moment of ghost crying and wolf howling, the group of demon soldiers turned into ashes.
Nan Xiao turned around and continued to test these barriers. He raised his hand and touched it, and when he came into contact with the barrier, he was not bounced away, but there was a huge suction force that seemed to suck him into the barrier. This suction force made Nan Xiao panic for no reason, so he had to pull his hand out.
Nan Xiao was puzzled.
The level of the golden ray is a little bit bottomed in his heart, if he is still the same as before, it would be fine, but after refining the Rakshasa qi for a whole year, and now he has half of the blood of the ghost spirit flowing in his body, he can be blocked by these seals?
Nan Xiao thought about itβcould it be that he practiced forbidden arts?
In Nanxiao's impression, when he was a child, he had heard him mention the forbidden art against ghosts.
Back then, the Rakshasa was menacing, with a posture of wanting to exterminate all the beings in the Three Realms, and slaughtered the two worlds of heaven and demons. At that time, the Demon Lord and the Emperor of Heaven couldn't bear the destruction of their own clan, and finally decided to join forces to fight against the Rakshasa - the Emperor of Heaven sacrificed his own primordial god, refining the art of Na Ling, and fused the spirits of the millions of heavenly troops and the people of the Celestial Clan killed by the Rakshasa into ten thousand spirit beads.
And although the Netherworld Technique practiced by the Demon Lord did not directly kill him, it was his own blood and bones that urged the Netherworld Technique, and in the final analysis, it was also a spell that would kill him after a few times.
It's just that in the situation of death at that time, no one has to account for the consequences. The Demon Lord's saber is as powerful as clay, and he has turned the Ten Thousand Spirit Beads into the inner pill of this knife with the Netherworld, and this sword is even more alive after being blessed. In the end, it was the Rakshasa who was on a killing spree - his place was littered with corpses and the Netherworld was bloodthirsty.
On that day, the Rakshasa slaughtered the demon realm, and before the demon lord held the treasure sword, the netherworld technique absorbed the qi and blood of all the corpses that had not yet dissipated within a radius of 100 miles into the treasure knife, combined with the ten thousand spirit beads refined by millions of yuan gods - it is conceivable how evil this demon knife that carried countless souls and killings was so evil.
So, the killing of the rakshasa was stopped, and the heavenly punishment followed.
The Demon Lord knew the power of this knife in his heart, and he joined forces with the Emperor of Heaven to refine it in order to save the common people and future generations, and since the Rakshasa was punished by heaven, then there was no need to keep this knife, otherwise, I was afraid that it would become the next nightmare of the Three Realms.
Therefore, the Demon Lord named this knife as a terror, and threw it into the heavenly punishment along with the Rakshasa . After being punished by heaven, the fear of life was shattered in an instant, and everyone thought that it was wiped out along with the Rakshasa. Not long after that, the Demon Monarch reached the end of his life, and when he came, he made the Netherworld Forbidden Technique, which could not be practiced in the future life.
It has been passed down from our ancestors to this day.
Without the Rakshasas, the Three Realms were peaceful, and each began to rebuild its homeland and revitalize itself. No one would practice this technique at the cost of their own lives.
Later, although the shadow of the Rakshasa was thickly covered with the Three Realms, it was busy and had the ability to make people forget, and I don't know how long it took for the Three Realms to gradually step out of the haze, and no one still poked the Rakshasa in their hearts.
It wasn't until tens of thousands of years later that the Ten Thousand Soul Beads appeared in the sky, and rumors spread in the Three Realms. I don't know who started it - there is a theory that has been passed down to the present - the fear was not completely destroyed, its fragments were scattered all over the Three Realms, turning into treasures......
After recalling it for a long time, Nan Xiao came back to his senses, although he had heard of the existence of the Netherworld, but no one had really seen its power, and the suction of the enchantment in front of him was abnormal.
Nan Xiao stepped back, and took out a breath from his fingertips and handed it to the enchantment, and sure enough, when the breath touched the enchantment, it was not dissipated, but was absorbed into the enchantment and turned into a part of the enchantment. At this time, Nan Xiao had a difficulty in his heart, and he hadn't heard of any solution to the Netherworld...... Nan Xiao's eyes were full of murder, he angrily stared at the Shen Hades Palace through the enchantment, and suddenly felt funny in his heart - the more unscrupulous the golden ray is, the more it proves that he has a weak heart, he has been tortured unimaginably by ordinary people in the past year, and now it seems that the golden ray is also living in a nightmare.
In the next second, Nanxiao's figure disappeared outside the palace gate, and he returned to the Demon Abyss, preparing to wait for tomorrow to ask Rakshasa about the solution to the Nether Technique, and then make plans.
Nine Heavens
After dawn, Suchuan returned to the Yueyi Palace alone, and Ying Rong waited in the courtyard with a haggard face, and when he saw Suchuan coming back, he conveyed what Yanbai said. Su Chuan frowned and pondered suspiciously for a while, thinking that there was still some time before the divine discussion, so he simply went to the Xuanhe Palace of the God of War.
Yueyi Palace and Xuanhe Palace are one south and one north, and when passing through the Chaoxi Palace of the marriage god, I saw the marriage god sitting drunk by the palace gate, and when he saw Suchuan, he laughed vigorously at him.
Chenlan is older than Shuchuan.,When I was young, I was often called my sister by Suchuan.,Compared to Yanbai's one-eyed brother,This quirky sister is much more interesting.γ It's just that later they were promoted to gods, and when they were busy, they couldn't see each other.
There is no shortage of people who like to hold banquets and listen to operas, and there are more banquets in Shuchuan in the past thousands of years than the stars that are distributed every night. It is said that Chenlan's lively temperament must love to join in these excitement, but Suchuan rarely meets her.
Later, when I inquired, I found out that for some reason, Chenlan suddenly became an alcoholic, and he was drunk in the morning and evening palace every day. Worried, Suchuan went to look for it several times, but Chenlan didn't even open the door for himself.
Later, Suchuan met Huang Yuanjun and was too busy to take care of himself......
That being said, the two grew up together, and when Suchuan saw her so gaffe, he hurriedly went over and wanted to help her up. Although I haven't been familiar with it for thousands of years, the atmosphere is not unfamiliar. Su Chuan's hand was just handed to Chenlan, and Chenlan grabbed his hand and wanted to stand up, but his feet were weak, he staggered and fell back, and the two looked at each other and laughed.
Suchuan tried again, and finally stabilized the dust.
Take a closer look at Chenlan, wearing a plain white dress, her hair is casually draped, and if she wants to say color all over her body, only two drunken blushes on her face. After standing firmly, she glanced at Suchuan again in a daze, gently pushed away Suchuan's support, and stumbled towards the Chaoxi Palace.
Suchuan didn't step forward again, but only saw her enter the palace gate.
The scenery in the Chaoxi Palace is the most bizarre in the entire heavenly realm, the Hundred Flowers Palace is full of flowers, and the stars of the Yueyi Palace are bright, but compared to the Chaoxi Palace, they all seem a little dull - every time there is a marriage in the Three Realms, a spirit stone belonging to this marriage will be born in the Chaoxi Palace, these spirit stones are different in shape, size and color, some are born on the ground like stones, and some are hanging on trees like flowers.
The previous marriage god would collect these spirit stones that always came out of various places, sort out the side hall to place these spirit stones, and often spend a lot of time sorting them out.
But since Chenlan was promoted to the god of marriage and entered this palace of morning and night, she has never cared about these spirit stones, no matter where they appear, she will let them stay where they are. After a long time, in addition to the outer wall, the whole palace seems to be made of spirit stones, colorful and dazzling.
Later, Chenlan also gave these spirit stones a name - Fate.
Chenlan didn't take two steps into the door, his body was stunned, and he turned to look at Shuchuan again: "Do you know the fate in my palace, why is it called this?"
Su Chuan, who was suddenly asked, was stunned for a moment, thought for a moment and smiled: "Why?"
Chenlan rubbed his eyes, and then smiled lightly: "Fate is a witness of true love, there are no two in love, and fate is clear." But most of them are only the most dazzling when they are just born, and they will soon dim, and many will only shine for a moment...... Rise in a hurry, and die in a hurry...... Almost all of them end up cracking or shattering. I have traveled to the Three Realms, and I have seen countless infatuated men and women, but whether they are really affectionate or not, fate has already given the answer. Chenlan sighed a little lost, "Originally, I only thought that this world was too hypocritical, but then I gradually understood that the love of all living beings is to love oneself, and what can make the fate immortal is love." She smiled suddenly, "How long do you guess the longest one has been brightening?"
Suchuan looked dazed: "Ten thousand years?"
Chenlan smiled and shook his head: "One thousand one hundred and twenty-two." β
The answer of "......" is too short in Suchuan's opinion. The human world has lived and died for a hundred years, and there is nothing to say about it in a hurry. But most of the two worlds of heaven and demon have a lifespan of 10,000 years, but Chenlan said that the longest fate has only been lit for more than 1,000 years?
And what surprised Suchuan even more was Chenlan's next sentence.
"Except for the one that has been shining for the longest time, the rest of the fate is like a flash in the pan. Dusty walked back a little and leaned against the door frame again, "It's also the strangest one for the longest time, it's not like other fates that crack and shatter after dimming, it just loses its light and color, it doesn't break, and it's still in place......"
Sukugawa didn't know what to say - it was ridiculous.
Dusty continued to himself: "This marriage god has been in it for a long time, and he is becoming less and less interested. But the other day...... she recalled, leaning her neck, "...... It's been more than a year, and one of the brightest fates has appeared in my palace. Not to mention the color of the demon, it is still as bright as it was at the beginning! Fortunately, it grows in the backyard, and if I had been born in my dormitory, I am afraid I would never have had a night again. She suddenly yawned abruptly, shook her head and walked into the palace gate again, "Drunk...... Drunk again......"
Suchuan watched her back fade away, and stood outside the Chaoxi Palace for a long time.
- Love yourself......
- Love......
He seemed to understand what Dusty was sayingβif that was the case, fate would be a real disaster.
Wuji Tiandu, Jiuxiao, Xuanhe Palace
In this solemn Xuanhe Palace, there are all kinds of weapons and magic weapons, and in the early years, Yan Bai was just promoted to the god of war, and Suchuan liked to hide in the Xuanhe Palace with him to study weapons. At that time, the Three Realms had not yet returned to peace, and Yanbai was under tremendous pressure outside, although Suchuan did not say anything, but he really accompanied him for a long time.
At this moment, Yan Bai was holding his head in the dormitory in a daze, absentmindedly fiddling with a small teacup. I only heard the voice of the attendant outside the hall: "Welcome to the moon god." β
Yan Bai smiled in surprise, stood up and greeted him, and before he stepped out of the dormitory, he couldn't help but speak: "It's been a long time since you came to me." β
Suchuan smiled evilly: "It's not that the treasures of your Xuanhe Palace make me tired of playing?
As soon as Chifang was mentioned, the girl who was swaying around without clothes popped out of Yan Bai's mind, and she blushed with shame all of a sudden, which made Suchuan confused: "Why do you look ...... Shy?"
Yan Bai glared at Su Chuan angrily: "The heavenly army sent before didn't have an accident, but was locked up by a monster called Barbarian, she said that she had something important to tell her, and she made such a big battle in order to lure us out." As for the important thing, she told me that the Demon Lord was collecting treasures, most likely in a terror. β
Su Chuan frowned slightly: "Fear of life?" What kind of magic weapon is fear of life, he knew it as early as when Shu Chuan followed Huang Yuanjun to practice. And Jin Ray rebelled and threw Nan Xiao into the Demon Abyss, and now he is worried about the fear of life, obviously trying to be unfavorable to Yinxi. Thinking of this, Su Chuan said hatefully: "Yin Xi has lived in Wuji Zhai for a long time and doesn't even get involved in the world, but he still wants to cause some trouble?"
Yan Bai also sneered: "It's the same for those who are thieves with weak hearts." β
Suchuan squinted his eyes and thought for a while: "No......" He seemed to be a little anxious, "Since ancient times, there have been different opinions about refining the fear of life, but there is one thing that is in various sayings - blood sacrifice. He pondered for a moment, searching his mind for all sorts of fears, and muttered, "I think it has something to do with a spell...... What's it called...... I heard Huang Yuanjun say that it is his own blood and qi that is consumed by urging this technique, but this technique is bloodthirsty, and it can absorb back the blood and qi consumed by the caster, which is the most evil killing technique. β
Yan Bai also frowned: "What do you mean...... Maybe the Demon Lord has already practiced this technique?"
Suchuan hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Nine times out of ten." He said hurriedly, "If he really wants the Ten Thousand Spirit Beads, most likely he has made a plan to grab it." Without further ado, you quickly lead the Heavenly Army back to garrison Jiuxiao, this matter is not trivial, and the gods will have to inform their father and emperor in a while, so that the gods can make plans together. β
Yan Bai responded: "You go to the Divine Council first, and I'll come in a while." β
The two looked at each other and walked out of the Xuanhe Palace.
