Chapter 7: The Netherworld

Cold, bone-chilling!

As soon as I entered the lake, the chill came from all directions, as if I had come to an ice cellar in an instant, and goosebumps instantly appeared, and even my movements couldn't help but become slow.

"This lake is too cold, isn't it? I don't usually feel anything, how come it is like coming to a world of ice and snow as soon as I come in, is it true that the rumors that the ghost door is open and the yin atmosphere is strong on the third watch day?"

Ning Xiaoyi unconsciously beat a spirit, and then secretly ran the "Ten Thousand Souls Hundred Life Fist", in an instant, the rolling qi and blood gradually boiled, and a faint red copper color instantly covered his whole body, and at the same time, the originally slow movements also became brisk.

If you are like a swimming fish, you are thousands of miles away!

"It is rumored that a cultivator can open a valley, live only by eating and drinking nectar, the four seasons are mild and comfortable, not afraid of severe cold and heat, not afraid of mosquitoes and poisonous snakes, now it seems that this statement is not bad."

Feeling the blood rushing all over his body, like a big river of the Yangtze River, Ning Xiaoyi secretly thought to himself, and at the same time, his heart became more and more fascinated by the legendary supernatural realm.

Even the physical realm can drive away the cold and not be afraid of the cold, so what kind of world will the legendary supernatural realm be?

Holding the sun and moon in your hands, stepping on the stars, you may even be immortal!

"It's not enough to just listen to Elder Zhong's story, if one day, I must personally climb to the top of the Divine Power Realm and experience the taste of land immortals, so that I can be worthy of going through this life, so that this life will be in vain!"

Ning Xiaoyi's eyes became brighter and brighter, and the longing in his heart became more and more intense.

If in the past, he only thought about breaking through to the physical realm as soon as possible, getting rid of the identity of a miscellaneous servant, and becoming an outer disciple of the Troll Sect, then as the cultivation days deepened, Ning Xiaoyi's obsession and desire for cultivation became stronger and stronger.

To do one thing, the more you know, the longer you do it, the more refined the work you do, and the ambition in your heart will intensify.

The nature of human beings is to study one thing with a beginning and an end, keep improving, and the same is true for cultivation, go forward bravely, cut through thorns and thorns, until you finally reach the peak!

"It's here!"

Suddenly, a burst of light appeared in front of Ning Xiaoyi's eyes, like a candle in the dark night, extremely dazzling, as Ning Xiaoyi advanced, the light gradually became bright and real, and then suddenly brightened.

"Whew, whew!"

Stepping on the shore, Ning Xiaoyi hurriedly took a few deep breaths of air and spit out all the waste held in his lungs, and then the feeling of being so heavy that he pressed on his chest gradually became relaxed.

"It feels so good to step on the ground!"

Ning Xiaoyi muttered, the earth is worthy of being called the land of the emperor and the queen of heaven, and the most primitive nature of human beings is connected to it, and it must not be separated.

"Ahem, ahem, it's finally here! It's so cold, it's so cold!"

On the side, Da Niu struggled to break free from the shackles of the lake, and as soon as he reached the ground, he kept shivering, he was not like Ning Xiaoyi, he had no cultivation at all, even if he was born strong, he couldn't withstand the cold of the lake, if he stayed in the water for half a stick of incense, maybe he might even freeze to death directly.

After another half an hour, I only heard four heavy sounds on the ground, as if a sandbag full of water had fallen to the ground, and I saw Wang Hu and the four of them lying on the ground, constantly trembling and panting, with purple lips and blue faces, and they couldn't recover for a long time.

Ignoring the others, Ning Xiaoyi stared around alone, carefully and carefully, not daring to let go of the slightest.

I saw that the place where they were staying at this time was a hollow cave, the air around them was extremely humid, and there were glowing ores scattered everywhere on the ground, and it was precisely because of these ores that Ning Xiaoyi and the others were able to find a way forward in the dark lake water.

"It's ......"

Ning Xiaoyi walked around, carefully removing the stones, revealing the murals carved on the stone walls behind the stones, originally these murals should be easy to see, but because there were various stones of different sizes stacked in front of them, they blocked everyone's sight.

"It must have been too humid to cause the cave to collapse, so there are so many stones to cover these murals"

Ning Xiaoyi thought to himself, if it weren't for his sharp eyes, maybe he would really miss these murals carved on the stone wall.

Without thinking about it anymore, Ning Xiaoyi put all his eyes on the mural, although most of the mural was covered by stones, and only a small part was exposed, but according to this small part of the mural, Ning Xiaoyi still saw some clues.

It was a figure of a bull-headed human body, the bull's head was very huge and hideous, like a ghost, behind the bull's head, a thick chain connected a series of figures, these figures were incomplete, some had broken hands, some had broken feet, and some even had only half of their bodies, and their faces were piled up with endless resentment and pain, as if they had been abused by a cruel and inhuman person.

"Is this one of the legendary bull-headed horses, and if that's the case, then these people... No, aren't these all ghosts? Could it be that this mural records the legendary underworld?"

Ning Xiaoyi looked at the mural and pondered, Legend has it that the underworld is the highest ruling organ in the entire underworld, just like the court of the Yang world in Zhongzhou, and the ruler of the underworld is like the emperor of the current imperial court, and this bull head and horse face is similar to the official position of the general size of the imperial court, specializing in all kinds of ghosts.

Of course, this is just a legend, after all, Ning Xiaoyi has not yet been able to go to the underworld, unless there is a possibility that he will die, but there is one thing that Ning Xiaoyi is very clear, that is, the underworld really exists, and the matter of the emperor of the Immortal Holy Dynasty dividing the ghosts and immortals is not just a rumor, unless Zhong Kui lies, otherwise it is all true.

"Xiao Yi, what are you doing? Come over and help!"

Just when Ning Xiaoyi wanted to go further, he only heard Da Niu's impatient voice, and looked up, only to see that Da Niu, Wang Hu and others had come to their senses at some point, and were pushing the stone gate with all their might, and with their efforts, the stone gate was opening inward little by little, but the progress was very slow.

"Nothing, I'm coming"

Ning Xiaoyi shook his head, and then walked quickly to Da Niu's side, staring at the stone gate with both eyes, only to see that the stone gate was carved with unknown runes, as if they were ancient characters, strange shapes, simple and abnormal.

"If you have the opportunity, you must read more, only by reading 10,000 books can you travel 10,000 miles!"

Ning Xiaoyi looked at Shimen and said secretly, if it weren't for listening to Zhong Kui's teachings, then it would be impossible for him to know about the Immortal Holy Dynasty, nor would he know about the land immortals of the Divine Power Realm, let alone the existence of the underworld, so all of this is enough to show the importance of knowledge.

A person's vision not only depends on the path he takes, but also on his knowledge level, the wider his ocean of knowledge, then the more insight he has, so that he will not become a frog at the bottom of the well, a person who sits in the well and watches the sky, at least the current Ning Xiaoyi knows that this world is magnificent and has endless mysteries.
