Chapter Fifty-Eight: Falling into the Netherworld

Duan Feng was surprised: "Ouyang Xuan, why are you here?"

Ouyang Xuan said: "It's too late to explain now, you come out with me." ”

Saying that, Ouyang Xuan took Duan Feng's hand and walked out, Han Qing and Liu Yuwei also chased after them, just downstairs, several people found the boss's body lying downstairs, Duan Feng just wanted to ask what only saw the boss's body gradually turn into a ball of white powder, Duan Feng and the others followed Ouyang Xuan to the outside of the inn with wide eyes.

At this time, the street was quiet and empty, the doors of the shops on both sides of the street were open or closed, and the stalls on the street were also as usual, there was no trace of fighting, but everyone seemed to disappear in an instant, and the air was filled with a smell of burning.

The sky suddenly darkened, and a splash of gray-white debris fell from the sky.

"It's snowing?" Liu Yuwei reached out to catch the gray-white debris floating in the air.

"It's not snow. Duan Feng crushed a snowflake with his fingers, "This is ash." ”

The ashes grew, and soon the sky was covered with dust, like goose feathers and snow.

"Boom!"

The ground trembled, and the houses on both sides of the street collapsed in an instant, but it could be seen from the ruins of the houses that they had been in ruins for some years, and the ruins were already overgrown with weeds.

Suddenly, the inn collapsed, and a deep hole several zhang square appeared in the position of the inn, Duan Feng poked his head to see, the hole was bottomless, and a black whirlpool slowly formed in the hole, the center of the whirlpool was like a fire, and a black gas slowly emerged from the bottom of the hole.

Only then did everyone feel a little afraid, Duan Feng asked Ouyang Xuan what was going on, Ouyang Xuan did not answer, but pointed to the black hole and said, "Don't you want to know the secret of this town? Then follow me." ”

As he spoke, Ouyang Xuan jumped into the black hole, and instantly disappeared into the flames in the center. When Duan Feng saw it, he also wanted to jump in, but was pulled by Liu Yuwei, from the moment Ouyang Xuan appeared, Liu Yuwei kept a straight face.

Seeing that Duan Feng was about to jump into the black hole with Ouyang Xuan, he said angrily: "This woman didn't know where she came from, how do you know that she is not playing tricks, don't forget that she is a member of the imperial court." ”

Duan Feng said: "Qian'er, don't make trouble, now is not the time, the purpose of our coming here is to find out the truth here." Besides, even if she wants to harm me, she doesn't have to wait until now. ”

As he spoke, Duan Feng jumped down and jumped down, although Liu Yuwei was angry, he still jumped down.

At this time, Ouyang Xuan was waiting at the bottom of the hole, it turned out that the bottom of the hole was a deep pool, and there was a layer of white water vapor on the surface of the pool, and Ouyang Xuan was sorting out his clothes by the pool.

Duan Feng and the others also climbed to the shore one by one, and Duan Feng asked, "Now you can tell us what's going on here, right?"

Ouyang Xuan sorted out her clothes, sighed and said, "Actually, this is a netherworld. ”

"Netherworld?" Duan Feng asked, "What is that place?"

Ouyang Xuan said: "The so-called Nether Realm is another place independent of the Three Realms, but unlike the Ghost City and the Far North Domain, the Netherworld is like an invisible and intangible, stored in the Human Realm, but it is not governed by the Human Realm. ”

Duan Feng said, "Then what about the people here? They seem to have been cast some kind of magic, and they will have temporary memory loss. ”

Ouyang Xuan said: "The people in the Netherworld are actually not people, they are actually dead a long time ago. ”

Han Qing said, "Dead, the same as the Scattered Soul Clan?"

Ouyang Xuan said: "They are not the same as the Scattered Soul Clan, the Scattered Soul Clan still has three souls left in the body, and the people here do not have three souls and seven souls, only one breath exists in the body, after the person dies, this breath cannot be spit out, and the person is not dead, the spirit of the underworld does not have the reaction of their death, and the three souls and seven spirits cannot return to the right position, so they gather on this qi and stay in the body, and eventually these souls will enter the nether world with this qi." ”

"Is that what people call the breath that they can't swallow?" Duan Feng asked.

"No, this breath is the last breath of yang energy that comes out of a person's mouth after death, and only by exhaling this breath of yang energy can a person's three souls and seven spirits be dissipated. Ouyang Xuan explained.

"How do you know this, who knows if you are making it up?" Liu Yu said with disdain.

Ouyang Xuan sneered and said, "My young master of the Royal Forest Guard is not in vain. ”

Liu Yu glanced at Ouyang Xuan unconvinced.

When Duan Feng saw it, he immediately changed the topic: "Miss Ouyang, why did you come here?"

Ouyang Xuan replied, "I came to find something on the orders of the emperor. ”

Duan Feng asked, "What is it?"

Ouyang Xuan looked at Duan Feng and said, "It's the same as you." ”

Duan Feng asked, "How do you know what I'm looking for?"

Ouyang Xuan replied, "You don't have to worry about that. ”

Saying that, Ouyang Xuan stood up and was about to walk to the depths of the cave, and the four of them also walked over.

Ouyang Xuan said: "Everyone follow me, the Netherworld is different from other places, here the slightest carelessness will fall into the cycle of time and space, just like those people on the earth are trapped in a lifetime in a time, and they are even more painful than them, because they are already half-dead, and their memories only stay on the day of death, while you are different, you will keep your memories, but you will always stay in the same day, repeating the same thing." ”

Duan Feng asked, "Just like that boss, what about the people who disappeared?"

Ouyang Xuan said: "As for that boss, he is not a person, and he is different from those half-dead people above, as for his identity, I haven't figured it out, and those who have disappeared, I don't know how they disappeared, which is also one of the purposes of my here." ”

Ouyang Xuan continued: "I suspect that this Netherworld is man-made. ”

Duan Feng said, "What does this mean?"

Ouyang Xuan said: "The Netherworld was naturally formed at the beginning of the opening of heaven and earth, due to the collision of various energies, along with the formation of the Three Realms, in the Netherworld, any mana in the Three Realms cannot play a role, and once you enter the Netherworld, even the Emperor of Heaven will not want to go out. ”

Duan Feng said: "So don't we all be able to get out?"

Ouyang Xuan said: "This netherworld is different, not only can there be a steady stream of human races entering here, but I also found that there are still things that keep going out from here, although I can't tell what it is, but one thing is certain, there must be a way out of this netherworld." This means that this nether world is likely to be artificial. ”

Ouyang Xuan said again: "If that's the case, then it's terrible. ”

Duan Feng asked, "Why?"

Ouyang Xuan said: "I said before that the Netherworld grows together with the Three Realms, if this place really thinks that it is created, then the mana of the person who created this Netherworld is probably not under the Emperor of Heaven." ”

"Didn't you say that any mana in the Three Realms would be invalid in the Netherworld?" Duan Feng asked.

Ouyang Xuan said: "This may be the reason why there are substances in and out of this netherworld, maybe the mana of the person who created this netherworld is not enough to create a real netherworld." Even so, this person's mana will not be under the Heavenly Emperor. ”

Duan Feng said, "It can't be a Demon Venerable, right?"

Ouyang Xuan replied: "It's not clear yet, but we'll know the reason soon." ”

This is the crowd suddenly found that there is a bright light in front of them, and everyone walked in the direction of the bright light, it is a hole, everyone walks out of the hole, and the eyes suddenly open up, and the front of them is a paradise, the scenery is beautiful, and the sun is shining.

Everyone walked out of the cave and walked in the dense forest, as if they were in a fairyland, surrounded by countless strange flowers and trees, and the birds, insects and fish were never seen.

Just when everyone was intoxicated with this fairyland on earth, a figure came from a distance, and when he got closer, Duan Feng immediately recognized the person, it turned out to be the groom who disappeared.

The groom was wearing a gray cloth robe, holding a folding fan in his hand, and walked over leisurely, just wanting to salute everyone, only to see Ouyang Xuan pull out the Tianming Sword from behind, and before everyone could react, the Tianming Sword had already pierced into the groom's heart, only to see the groom slowly fall, and finally turned into a pile of white powder and disappeared into the air.

Before everyone could react, they saw a sudden change in the sky, rolling dark clouds covering the sky, and the flowers and trees around them instantly turned into a pile of powder and drifted away with the wind.

The sky was dark, and a grid suddenly formed in the dark clouds, accompanied by a rumbling thunder, and the earth seemed to be swallowed by the dark clouds.

Ouyang Xuan shouted: "Oh no!

As soon as everyone entered the cave, they saw a sea of magma and fire instantly emerging from the originally flat earth, and the original flowers and trees were burned to ashes, and endless heat waves rolled in.

Everyone was palpitating, suddenly a fire dragon flew out of the magma, straight towards everyone, everyone wanted to retreat to the cave, but in a blink of an eye, the way to come has been blocked, seeing the fire dragon getting closer and closer, suddenly, the fire dragon turned into three, drilled into the magma, and instantly burst out with a full body of flames, towards the entrance of the cave.

With a wave of his right hand, Duan Feng drew a circle in front of him.

"What are you doing?" Liu Yu looked at Duan Feng strangely.

"How can this be?!" Duan Feng tried to work with both hands, drawing a few circles in front of him, but there was still no response.

"Where's my spiritual power?" Han Qing suddenly shouted.

Only then did Duan Feng feel that there was no feeling of aura in his body, and there was no energy generated in the qi veins.

"Don't try, I said that any mana in the Three Realms here will be invalid. Ouyang Xuan explained.

The fire dragon was getting closer and closer, and everyone was sweating profusely from the flames, and the hole of more than ten meters alone was not enough to avoid the fire dragon's attack.

The three fire dragons were already less than 100 meters, and suddenly, the three dragons turned into one again, roared angrily, and spewed out a stream of magma from their mouths, flying towards Duan Feng.

Watching the magma that covered the sky and the sun falling from the sky, judging from the size of the dragon, its mouthful of magma was enough to fill the entire cave entrance, without spiritual power, in the face of this kind of attack, they could only sit and wait for death, everyone closed their eyes and prepared to meet the last blow in their lives.
