Chapter 31: The Cause of the Past 2

In the dark cave, the voice of the Emperor of Xudu echoed softly; In front of the deep black hole, I quietly listened to the story of the Emperor Xudu.

I was standing next to Emperor Xudu, and the two of them were only about a meter away.

I distinctly heard the sound of "Gegege" from the knuckles of Emperor Xudu's fingers, and when I looked down, I saw two hands behind his back, his fists clenched tightly, and the sound was made by him because his fists were clenched too tightly.

However, Emperor Xudu himself didn't seem to notice it at all, and continued to fall into his memories.

"That yearβ€”I can remember how many yearsβ€”one day, I went to check on Xiong Qi. On that day, he was surprisingly quiet, not only did he not yell as before, but did not say a word. I was curious, so I asked him what was wrong, and he didn't answer me. For about a month after that, he was like this. This was a bit unusual, and I kept asking him what the hell he was up to. Later, he finally told me......"

The tone of Emperor Xudu's voice was still as flat as ever, but when I heard this, I felt nervous for no reason.

Emperor Xudu continued: "Xiong Qi told me that after this period of time, he finally realized the cultivation method of the legendary Nine Wild True Fire......

I interjected strangely and asked, "Is there such a thing as Nine True Fire?" I've never heard of it, I've only heard of Samadhi True Fire. ”

The corners of Emperor Xudu's mouth twitched, and he smiled and said, "Of course there is." The samadhi fire you have heard of is only the lowest one, and there are six true fires and nine true fires at the top. But the Nine Madhi True Fire was rare, and for me at that time, it was just a legend, and I had never heard of anyone practicing it. So, it's normal that you haven't heard of it. The gods of the Nine True Flames tremble, and the gods are all scattered under the torch of the Nine True Fire."

I nodded, stopped talking, and thought that since Xiong Qi had even cultivated this legendary Nine Madhi True Fire, he really didn't know how to deal with it. If I meet him in the future, won't he be burned to death in minutes?

I only heard Emperor Xudu continue: "At that time, I was also a martial idiot, and I was particularly obsessed with cultivating advanced spells. When I heard that Xiong Qi had actually realized the cultivation method of the Nine Madrid True Fire, of course I was very excited, and I immediately sincerely asked him how to cultivate. Xiong Qi thought about it for a long time, and finally told me that although he had realized the cultivation method, his hands and feet were locked and he couldn't cultivate, so he also wanted to borrow my hand to see what the effect of practicing this Nine Madhi True Fire was......"

I sneered and said, "Xiong Qi would have such a good heart? He's definitely lying to you. ”

Emperor Xudu was noncommittal, and continued: "At that time, I didn't think about it so much, I just thought about whether I could practice such a powerful kung fu. Then, Xiong Qi asked me to swear that I would never tell anyone else about this cultivation method. After I swore an oath, he told me the details of the cultivation method and asked me to show him it on the spot. ”

When Emperor Xudu said this, he suddenly stopped and looked quietly ahead.

I looked back at Emperor Xudu strangely, only to see that his body trembled slightly, and his eyes flashed with a terrifying light in the darkness.

It seems that I really didn't guess wrong, this Emperor Xudu must have fallen for Xiong Qi's plan. I really don't understand, people at that time were so simple and easy to deceive? Or is this Emperor Xudu particularly different?

After a long time, Emperor Xudu continued: "I didn't expect that Xiong Qi would come up with such a trick. It's also to blame that I was too innocent at the time, and I only thought about cultivating advanced spells, and I didn't think about anything else......"

"What the hell happened then?" I couldn't help but ask.

Emperor Xudu said, "I started to exercise according to the cultivation method that Xiong Qi told me, but after a few minutes, I fell into a coma. In a daze, I actually obeyed Xiong Qi's command, and not only opened the barrier of the cell, but also opened the twelve soul chains on his body. Then I fell into a complete coma, and I don't know how long it took for me to come to my senses. At this time...... That Bear Strange ...... I have fled to the world......"

Speaking of this, Emperor Xudu's voice was choked.

I didn't know how to comfort him.

Indeed, many times in life, mistakes are made, some of which are innocuous and some of which can never be undone. Emperor Xudu let Xiong Qi go, which brought great catastrophe to the underworld and the world, which cannot be reversed in any way. Therefore, the heartache of Emperor Xudu can be understood.

The two of us were relatively silent, silent in the dark cave.

But I still wonder one thing, why did Emperor Xudu make such a big mistake, and instead of being punished, he became the Emperor of Xudu?

Emperor Xudu quickly solved this mystery for me: "However, at that time, Emperor Xudu, that is, the Great God of Houyi, he didn't blame me. He took all the blame alone, let me act as the Emperor of Xudu, and he personally went to hunt down Xiong Qi. ”

I nodded, finally understanding what was going on.

Emperor Xudu continued: "What happened later was similar to what Tang Jiang told you: when Xiong Qi fled from the underworld to the world, it was the time when the world was divided into three parts, and the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu were established. At that time, the world had changed, and it was gradually going to be attributed to the world of Cao Cao's family. But I don't know what the hell Xiong Qi got out of it, and the world actually belonged to the Sima family. After that, it was the Rebellion of the Eight Kings and the Five Chaos of China, and the world was already chaotic to the extreme. The culprit of all this, in the end, is caused by me. ”

I comforted him and said, "It's not your fault at all, after all, that Xiong Qi is too sinister, and of course you don't have to take responsibility for his crimes." You're just one of the victims. ”

Emperor Xudu shook his head, did not defend himself, and continued: "The Great God of Houyi came out of the underworld, and went to the heavens and the earth to look for Xiong Qi, wanting to completely destroy him. But that Xiong Qi is indeed very capable, and he is very alert. The great god of Houyi looked for him all over the world for a long time, and several times he finally caught Xiong Qi's traces, but he still slipped away. ”

"That Xiong Qiming knew that he was not the opponent of the Great God of Houyi, so he never dared to face the Great God of Houyi head-on. Later, Xiong Qi thought of a way, which was to open up the passage between the yin and yang worlds. If this yin and yang channel is really opened, thousands of souls in the underworld will rush to the human world. You must know that after millions of years of accumulation, there are already many very powerful souls in the underworld, and some of them have survived for millions of years at all, and their mana can even destroy the world. If they are allowed to escape to the world, then the end of mankind will come......"

I continued, "I see. Just because those powerful 10,000-year-old evil spirits must not be allowed to come to the world, so the yin and yang channels must be blocked. And if you want to block the yin and yang channel, you must sacrifice yourself to take righteousness and use your body to block the yin and yang channel. Xiong Qi's fundamental purpose in doing this was not to lead all spirits to the world, but to get rid of Hou Yi. ”

"Exactly." Emperor Xudu nodded and said, "This is simply a conspiracy. Even though he knew that his purpose was this, he still had to jump into the pit he had dug. In order to save the world from being destroyed, the great god Hou Yi finally sacrificed his life for righteousness, resolutely jumped into the yin and yang channel, and blocked the yin and yang channel with his body. This kind of spirit is simply the heaven and the earth changing color, and the river flowing backwards. You say, don't you? ”

I nodded and said, "Yes." ”

I've always admired this kind of person, even though I can't do it myself.

"What happened?" I asked again, "Why didn't Xiong Qi make trouble again?" ”

Emperor Xudu said: "Because before the Great God of Houyi jumped into the Yin and Yang Passage, Xiong Qi was seriously injured. Although it hasn't made him scattered, it's enough to keep him from messing around for a long time. ”
