Chapter 817, Target: Hunger Hell
With the help of our grandfather, and the few remaining stone men who were still slightly moving, we were able to run to the back of the church faster than the cold beasts.
Qiyue stood on the top of the backyard wall, chanting a spell intently, and Vivi waved at us, motioning for us to hurry over. While a few of us climbed over the fence, the beasts also chased around the church to the backyard. Qiyue also quickly sealed with both hands at this time, and pointed towards the ground in the backyard.
Following the direction of Qiyue's finger, I could see half of the runes exposed on the ground, and the beasts that were chasing them were just around the rune paper.
"Ten thousand laws are natural, swallow!"
Qiyue let out a loud shout, and quickly raised his right hand pointing forward, and then the ground in the backyard where the rune paper was located also began to tremble violently, and the beasts running on it were unsteady one by one, and they all fell to the ground. And after the violent shock, a huge flytrap plant emerged from the ground!
Two huge, spiky leaves seemed like a big mouth, swallowing all the beasts that had just stepped into the backyard at once, and when the giant flytrap retracted to the ground, the beasts disappeared with them.
The crisis before us doesn't seem to be over, although the flies have killed a group of beasts. But then the next batch rushed over. However, as soon as they approached the backyard, the huge Venus flytrap, which had been retracted into the ground, popped up again and devoured all the beasts that rushed at them.
Trap rune, this name is really apt, as long as there is this flytrap, no matter how many beasts there are, it seems that they can't help us.
However, Xi Lin didn't seem to be as optimistic as I was, his brows were always locked, and he looked at Qiyue from time to time, giving me the feeling as if the activation of this trap rune would have some effect on Qiyue.
I also hurriedly turned my head to look at Qiyue. Sure enough, Qiyue's forehead and sideburns were already full of sweat, and her arms were trembling constantly, and it seemed that the pressure caused by activating that rune paper was really not small!
The beasts were still charging endlessly towards the backyard, and they seemed to be getting smarter enough to try to get around the area where the Venus flytrap was. The trap rune had a much larger range than I had expected, though, as long as the beasts had crossed the church and tried to get closer to the backyard wall. No matter how much they dodge, they will be swallowed by the other smaller flytraps that pop up from the ground - the rune is not a single flytrap, but a whole piece of paper!
"The trap charm is almost overwhelmed. Let's get out of the way. After Xi Lin finished speaking, he grabbed Qiyue's wrist, carried her behind him, and then jumped off the wall and ran towards the back mountain. We also hurriedly jumped off the wall, and then followed Xi Lin and quickly hid in the dark back mountain.
After running a long enough distance, Master Zu told me that I could now use the Shiki, and I quickly summoned the candle dragon and the great tengu and asked them to be used as means of transportation to carry us out of this land of right and wrong. After flying into the air, I could clearly see the iceberg in the front yard of the church, with countless beasts still hovering around it.
"Good thing those things can't fly!" I rejoiced to myself.
But before I could finish speaking, the iceberg suddenly burst out with a loud bang, and a blue ice dragon flew out of the middle of the collapsing ice, and charged at our speed.
"You're a crow's mouth!" Vivi choked on me. Then hurriedly use the Five Elements Earth Spell to attack the ice dragon °C Master also ordered me to use the Ghost Dao Spell to provide him with an environment to possess, and after the possession was successful, his old man also cooperated with Wei Wei to use the Five Elements Spell to start an aerial battle with the ice dragon. Yamaru Yasai.
Qi Yue, who had eased up a little, and Chen Dapeng's sister Chen Qing also joined the air battle together, and with Xi Lin's Hades Arrow, we finally completely defeated the ice dragon before it caught up with us.
I was relieved that there were no pursuers, and that the church was out of sight, but this time I didn't dare say anything, lest something surprise strike us might arise as soon as I opened my mouth.
Shikiki flew into a deserted field and then descended to the ground.
Xi Lin glanced in the direction of the church, then turned back to us and said, "I should have thrown it off." ”
"Whew!" Hearing Xi Lin say this, I dared to speak out, and at the same time breathed a long sigh of relief.
The Great Beast rejoices! It's no wonder that Boss Nie lost half his life in the process of fighting with the guy, more precisely, Boss Nie was able to escape alive with only half of his life, which is already a miracle!
After breathing a sigh of relief, I asked Xi Lin if he had any plans for the future, obviously we can't just run directly to the lair of the Great Phase Beast Xitian, we must let the two impermanent old men go out, otherwise even if we go, there will only be a dead end!
Xi Lin also understood what I meant, and he replied: "Let's confirm where they are hiding first, and I will ask for reinforcements before the action, those two Hades don't look like we can deal with them." ”
"I really can't admit it, I really can't do it." I chimed in.
"Tell me about the place you just saw." Xi Lin went straight to the point.
"That place feels like it shouldn't be in the sun, it's a big black mountain with a steep standing like a dam, and there are many caves in the shape of a nest head halfway up the mountain, and the Great Beast Xitian is in one of the grottoes." I replied.
"I almost know where it is!" Xi Lin nodded while frowning: "Dad told me a few places before, the place you see should be the grinding cave in the Great Hunger Hell, if we want to go there, we need to open a gate to hell." ”
"Is it our turn to open the gates of hell this time?" I asked to myself.
"Well, it's for us to open this door, and the place where the door is opened is not in China, and we need to go to Japan again."
Xi Lin's words surprised me, and everyone else present looked at him in surprise.
Xi Lin hurriedly explained: "Hell and Hades, these are the products of Buddhist culture, and China and Japan are also influenced by Buddhism, so there will be many similarities in theology. Daddy said that although both the Great Beast Xitian and Anqira moved eastward with Buddhism from ancient India, one stayed in China and the other went to Japan. Judging from the current situation, it seems that the Great Beast Xitian has gone to the hunger hell on the Japanese side, and if they want to turn the world into hell, it is estimated that they will start in Japan. ”
"You mean to say that Anqira, the king of Hades, is actually an Oriental ghost?"
"Yes, so to speak." Xi Lin nodded.
"No wonder I didn't see much action from this guy, it turns out that he has been tossing around in Japan. By the way, isn't Anqiro bad in Japan? I wondered.
Xi Lin shook his head and said: "I don't know the specific situation, but I know that there are some local gods in Japan that are very deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, such as Amaterasu, Tsukiyomi, etc., I think there are these local gods, and the situation of the marginalized ancient foreign god Anqiro in Japan should be similar to that of the great beast Xitian in China." ”
"Oh, I pretty much get it when you say that. The Great Beast Xitian is the boss of the Beast Hell, and Anqiro should be the head of the Hunger Hell, and now the Great Xiangbeast Xitian has gone to Anqira's territory to visit the door, so if we want to catch these two Hades, we must open the gates of Hell in Japan. I concluded.
"yes, that's pretty much what it means." Xi Lin nodded in confirmation.
"In that case, it doesn't hurt to go to Japan again. But what I'm more concerned about now is the process of opening the gates of hell, and with the help of two old men, we shouldn't need to sacrifice souls, right? I asked.
"I don't know exactly how to open this door, but it certainly won't make so much trouble like Ai Shengping." Xi Lin frowned as he spoke, as if he also had a grudge against Ai Shengping. I couldn't help but glance at Xiao Ai, who immediately shrugged his shoulders helplessly at me, indicating that this matter had nothing to do with him.
Now that we've identified the hiding places of the two Hades, it's time to speed up our actions, lest we have to go all the way to Japan and come up empty.
We returned to the city that night and immediately contacted us about the ticket, and I took the time to contact Ryosuke Tsuchigomon to see if he would be willing to go with us.
Immediately after hearing me explain what had happened, he said that he would go with us to the starvation hell anyway, and he felt that if Hades really intended to turn the world into hell, then Japan would not be able to escape this fate. He also said that not only was he coming, but he would also call the people from the Tuyumen clan to help, and then asked a lot of questions about our itinerary.
Although Ryosuke Tsuchigomon's personality is not very likable, after fighting him twice, I can see his nature very clearly. He's not a bad person, and he doesn't have any scheming, it's just that his famous background makes him a little arrogant.
But I had to be careful with the people around him, such as the black wolf.
When Xi Lin told me that we were going to Japan to open the gates of hell, the name "black wolf" actually popped into my mind. He learned the spell in Japan, and the three-eyed dried corpse he got back from Huangdao Temple was also brought to Japan by him, and if you think about it carefully, it seems that the person who linked Huang, the Great Beast Xitian, and An Qiluo together may be a black wolf.
Ryosuke Tsuchimon should be trustworthy, but if there are other people around him who play a role similar to Chen Dapeng, I don't know, I guess with Ryosuke Tsuchigomon's character, it is impossible for him to know if there is anyone around him with ill intentions.
So I told him again and again that if I wanted to help, he could only be alone, and never call anyone from the Shangzong family, nor tell anyone around him, not even my most trusted friends and family members. In order to make him aware of the danger of this matter, I specially told him the details of Chen Dapeng, and then told him that I suspected that there were one or many "Chen Dapeng" hidden around him.
Tsuchigomon hesitated, but in the end he promised me to keep it a secret and come to help me alone. So we had a local guide for the next part of our Hell Open Doors Japan tour. As for what role the black wolf plays in this whole rebellion of gods and demons, I think the answer will be revealed when we defeat Anqiro.
