The moment Ke Meng and I successfully got out of that pit, it meant that we had successfully reached the eighth level of hell.

This is the place where Wu Jiu's soul is imprisoned, and the ghost soldiers guarding it have not only increased by as much as half compared to the first layer, but even the yin qi that permeates here is many times richer than the first layer.

In addition, the environment here has changed dramatically from the Black Forest in the first layer.

At this time, I could clearly see that although the hell in front of me was full of darkness, the aura of fire that permeated the mountain wall illuminated a large area of darkness with its scorching light.

And through this fiery red light, I can also see that on the surface of those mountain walls, there are strangely shaped trees.

The trees were shaped like sharp blades, the pointed tops of which reached into the dark sky, and the surface of the trees would glow with a blinding chill under the light of the surrounding fire.

Come to think of it, this should be the so-called Daolin Volcano.

I once heard my master say that this Knife Forest Volcano is an extremely vicious layer of hell.

Any soul that is sentenced to be here will be forcibly taken a pill called the Soul Returning Pill.

When this elixir enters the soul's body, it can play a role in healing the soul's wounds in a short time.

After that, the ghost soldiers of Hell will throw their souls from the top of the Knife Forest Volcano one by one, leaving them to suffer from the pain of the Sword Forest piercing and burning with flames.

Then, the ghost soldiers guarding the ground will send these souls back to the top of the Knife Forest Volcano.

And on the way to transport, the Soul Returning Pill in the ghost's body has already taken effect, and the injuries on the soul's body are quickly healed.

In this cycle, although the ghosts' bodies have not been damaged in any way, their minds have been completely defeated.

"Ke Meng, let's climb the Daolin Volcano along the road next to us in a while, and strive to find Uncle Wu's soul in the shortest possible time." At this time, after a general understanding of the surrounding environment, I explained to Ke Meng beside me with a nervous face.

To be honest, at this time, facing the Daolin volcano in front of me, I did have a strong timidity in my heart.

Although I am trying my best to hide this timid aura now, Ke Meng beside me can only see through me at a glance.

"Ouyang, don't be afraid, think about it yourself, you have the Nether Ghost Claw given to you by King Yama, that thing is a great treasure to restrain Yin Qi, with it, are you still afraid of these ghosts?" After thinking for a moment, Ke Meng smiled indifferently at me beside him, and then took my hand and walked towards the road next to him.

As our footsteps continued to move, we were getting closer and closer to the Daolin Volcano, and on the other hand, the scorching air released from the Daolin Volcano was also slowly blowing on our bodies, causing the souls of the two of us to flow out drops of sweat at this moment.

You must know that in a place like the underworld, where yin qi is pervasive, the temperature is quite low, and if you can release a scorching air flow in this environment to make the soul sweat, it also proves that the thing that releases the scorching air flow must not be an ordinary thing.

It can be seen that the volcano in front of us definitely contains something that is not weak, otherwise it would never be able to release such a strong heat flow in such a place.

It didn't take long for Ke Meng and I to reach the top of the Daolin Volcano.

It was only found that at the top of the Knife Forest Volcano, there were two tall buildings.

One of the buildings has a very unique appearance, like a sharp broadsword stuck into the ground, and at the top of the building, it is decorated with bright red colors, and from a distance it looks very similar to the bloodstained broadsword that has just been fought.

The building next to it is very ordinary, not only the style is very similar to our modern buildings, but even the surface painting is very monotonous, which is really a little out of place with the building next to it.

"Ke Meng, you wait for me here, I'll go to that knife-shaped building and have a look." As I spoke, I took the Nether Ghost Claw off the Hand in my hand with the palm of my hand and stuffed it into Ke Meng's hand: "Ke Meng, you take the Nether Ghost Claw first, if I don't come out for a long time, you can quickly go in and save me." ”

"I see." After hearing my instructions, Ke Meng nodded firmly, and immediately skimmed the strange building not far away, and whispered to me: "Ouyang, I always feel that the façade of that building is wrong, if you take a closer look, the yin qi in this building is so strong, but there are not many ghost soldiers guarding it, isn't this very wrong?" ”

At the moment when Ke Meng's words just floated out, my expression also suddenly became nervous.

To be honest, I was just thinking about where Wu Jiu was being held, and I didn't notice these details.

Now, under Ke Meng's reminder, I realized that something was wrong in front of this building.

The strange building in front of you looks like a ghost house, both in appearance and structure.

And the ghosts in this eighth layer of hell are bound to be not too weak, but why there are only a handful of ghost soldiers guarding them is really a little puzzling.

However, now I don't have time to think too much about these issues, and rescuing Wu Jiu first is the most important thing.

Thinking of this, I whispered to Ke Meng beside me: "Ke Meng, I don't have time to think about this now, you are hiding here, I will go and explore first." ”

With that, I walked alone through the gate of the strange building from the rear with a gentle pace, and slipped quietly into the strange building without the ghost soldiers noticing.

The moment I stepped into the building, I realized that I was facing a long corridor, and on either side of the corridor were cells sealed off by iron gates.

Although their layout is very similar to that of human cells, there are token-like things on the top of the doors of these cells, and I can feel a powerful and familiar power in them.

After a casual look, I hurried to the second floor of the building.

I only found that in the corridor here, in addition to the souls that should have been imprisoned in the cell, there were several huge ghost soldiers, and the strength of the yin qi that permeated their bodies was definitely no less than the Sun Bin I met in hell before.

Come to think of it, these huge ghost soldiers should be the prison officials guarding here.

I didn't dare to act rashly, at this time, I hurriedly used the perception in my body to feel the power that permeated the second layer.

After noticing that there was no fluctuation in Wu Jiu's Dao power, I took a gentle step and prepared to go up to the third floor.

But at this moment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded from a room at the end of the second floor: "Since you are here, why leave in such a hurry." ”

I had heard this voice before, and its owner was King Qin Guang, one of the Ten Hall Yamas who had only threatened the Netherworld by Liu Yinsi before.

And the moment his words sounded, my expression was suddenly stunned, and then I hurriedly ran around and hid in a corner on the side.

"This eighth layer of hell is not something that anyone can come, the purpose of your coming is also very clear to this king, you must want to take away Wu Jiu's soul, this king is right, Ouyang Yuqing." After noticing that no one had replied for a long time, King Qin Guang once again shouted sharply into the corridor not far away.

This time, King Qin Guang's words made it very clear who he was talking to, and he was also very clear about the purpose of my trip, so there was no need for me to hide it.

Thinking of this, I slowly walked out of the dark corner alone, and responded coldly to the room at the end of the corridor: "That's right, it's me, what do you want?" ”

"Eh, the stinky boy's mouth is quite hard, this king tells you, don't think that your kid has the support of King Yama, so he can be lawless here in this king." At this time, when King Qin Guang spoke, he did not care about the face of King Yama at all.

"I didn't expect you to even pay attention to King Yama, I think you are really a little lawless." After listening to King Qin Guang's words, I glanced at him with a strange face, and then whispered sarcastically.

"Hmph, in the eight layers of hell, this king is the sky, this king is the lord, not to mention the king of Yama, even if the rest of the nine halls of Yama are here, this king is not stunned at all." At this point, King Qin Guang looked at me not far away with a smug face, and then asked in a cold voice: "This king wants to ask you, who gave you such courage to dare to trespass on this king's Daolin Volcano." ”

"I'm sorry, I'm born with such a big guts, I can't help it, my father gave it." Although I didn't say a word when I was talking to King Qin Guang at this time, I was already timid in my heart, after all, the strength of the other party was a ghost ancestor, with the strength of my little sacrificial dao, how could I fight against it.

"Eh, the tone is really not small, this king likes it, but what, the purpose of your coming today is to take Wu Jiu, hum, I'm sorry, this king won't give you this opportunity." As he spoke, King Qin Guang's figure slowly appeared in front of me, and he said in a low voice: "Wu Jiu, this guy always hinders the good things of this king, this time it is hard to wait until he dies, of course this king has to seize the opportunity to torture him." ”

"I advise you to let me Uncle Wu go quickly, otherwise, don't blame me for being unkind to you." Although the words in my mouth were very resolute, the timidity in my heart kept rushing against my heart, making my expression a lot stranger.

"Oh? You're welcome to this king? Haha, I'm not ashamed, this king wants to see how you are not polite to this king today. After listening to my words, King Qin Guang waved his hand, and immediately after, a burly ghost soldier appeared around me with a cold weapon. (To be continued.) )
