Chapter 1013: Origin (2)
Chapter 1013 Origin (2)
Due to the due diligence of the fire, the Dark Fire Boat traveled for half a year, and finally reached the upper reaches of the Styx River without danger.
In the past six months, the two of them have not cultivated except for rowing and sleeping, and their cultivation has not increased at all. However, this half has given Ye Qingcheng enough time to review his life and get some inspiration from it. He became an orphan when he was a teenager, and later met his mentor Yuntian, and when he was still weak, he had the magical power to predict death. All kinds of signs indicate that he is the one who has been chosen by Destiny, but this is the end of it? Or is it like Lihuo said, their ordeal is not over, what is waiting for him?
"In the past six months, except for a few times when the boat almost capsized, there has been no danger, and there are no monsters?" Looking ahead, a majestic fog appeared on the turbid yellow rolling waves.
"The only thing that can live in the River Styx is the earth hide, and the last one is dead, how can there be monsters here?" Ye Qingcheng said with a smile.
In the past six months, his state of mind has become more and more calm. He finally understood that Yuntian's state of mind of going upriver on a bamboo raft was lonely, but it was a very necessary journey, which allowed people to stay away from the hustle and bustle and trivialities, let the memories precipitate, and then introspect themselves for deeper understanding.
If there is no such trip, Yuntian is afraid that he will not be willing to be reincarnated.
However, this is unusually depressing for the belligerent Lihuo.
"I'm all about improving my strength in battle, and I won't improve without fighting. "Meticulously rowing the boat of dark fire away from the fire.
"Then what if you don't have an opponent in the future?" Ye Qingcheng asked.
"No, there is a demon god standing at the top, he is the goal of my life. ”
While they were chatting, the boat sailed into the fog. This is not the first time, and they are not taking it seriously, still chatting. At this moment, a dark shadow swept in front of them, alerting them.
"There seems to be something!" Lihuo held the handle of the Buddha Heavenly Knife that was lying across his waist with one hand.
Ye Qingcheng stood up. He found that the turbulent waters of the River Styx suddenly became no longer turbulent, and the current was much slower.
"Could it be that you're at the door of the underworld?" he secretly estimated the time, and it was about the same.
Suddenly, a creepy voice came, as if someone was singing an obscure lamentation. Leaving the fire and Ye Qingcheng, he felt a cold breath that filled the air. On the dark fire boat, a layer of frost silently condensed.
They exhaled strings of white mist, and when the white mist was exhaled, it was frozen into powder.
"Where?" muttered Lihuo.
Suddenly, this space became so cold that it directly paralyzed their senses, as if there were ghosts hidden everywhere, and they lost their senses, and they could only rely on their eyes.
Just as they were looking for the black shadow, the left scale vine uncontrollably emerged from Ye Qingcheng's shoulder.
A dark golden, fist-sized tadpole head emerged from the left scale vine and stared at Ye Qingcheng's back, and at the same time, it bared its teeth, and a large amount of saliva dripped from between its fangs. Ye Qingcheng couldn't help but turn his head in the direction it was looking.
In the cold mist, there was a human head floating behind him!
It was an old man's head, with miserable white eyes, under its skull was not a body, but a white backbone, it appeared silently behind Ye Qingcheng, he didn't notice it at all, and couldn't help but be startled.
"Shhh
The left scaled vine made a threatening sound, and the ghost saw it, as if it had seen the most terrifying thing, screaming and turning and fleeing. However, like a swift snake, the left scale vine flew out like lightning and bit through its head in one bite.
It let out a wail, and its entire body shattered into black smoke, which was sucked into its stomach by the left scale vine.
Ye Qingcheng sighed, if he was in the human world, how could the ghost be so close to him, he smiled helplessly: "The yin qi here is too heavy, fortunately, there is a 'talisman' of Xiao Ling." ”
As he spoke, the boat sailed out of the fog, and suddenly it dawned before them, a magnificent, magnificent, but eerie world.
Their dark fire boat was like a leaf of duckweed, floating on the vast and infinite turbid yellow ocean, and the dark red and gray clouds on the sky were floating leisurely. Instead of birds, there were ghosts like black rags, flying aimlessly, making a ghostly cry.
The River Styx expanded into the vast Styx Sea, where a tall or mountain-sized white-boned beast soaked in the turbid yellow waters. There is no doubt that they have unwittingly entered the land of the dead, the underworld.
For the left scale vine, it is undoubtedly entering a food paradise. I saw that it swelled into a fierce "dragon", and directly opened its abyss-like mouth, and countless yin spirits screamed and were sucked into the giant mouth.
However, as soon as it began to enjoy the gluttonous feast, the law enforcers of the prefecture paid attention.
"Bang !!!!"
Suddenly, a headless giant as tall as a mountain, holding a long axe, fell from the sky. It had no head, a bloody corpse cloth wrapped around its neck, and was shirtless with a pair of ragged black shorts. It exuded a terrifying aura of death, and after falling into the Stygian Sea, it directly picked up the long axe and slashed the left scale vine with the power of billions of thunder.
Without hesitation, he pulled out the Buddha Heavenly Divine Sword, leaped up, fiercely aimed at the chest of the headless giant, and slashed fiercely.
"Hoo !!!"
A flame sword shadow, on the way to the flying slash, suddenly swelled to more than thirty zhang long, it carried the momentum of fierce flames, and hit the chest of the headless giant, exploding a majestic flame. At the same time, ink-like corpse fluid erupted from the red flames, and a scar was cut on the headless giant's chest, and it immediately fell on its back into the Stygian Sea.
"Xiao Ling, come back. Ye Qingcheng shouted.
Obviously, the ghost of the underworld is not something it can eat as much as it wants, there are strong people here, and if you don't pay attention to it, you may provoke someone.
The left scale vine was also very knowledgeable, and immediately turned into a golden mang, flying to Ye Qingcheng's palm.
"Bang !!!!"
The earth shook again, and the second leaderless giant fell, exactly like the one that fell. At the same time, the one who had fallen before also stood up from the Styx.
"Two? better. Lihuo's eyes flashed with excitement, and he had not fought for half a year, and he was already impatient.
I saw a flame rise from his body, and suddenly rushed towards one of them. However, at this moment, Ye Qingcheng sensed an extremely dangerous aura, and his figure suddenly turned into a thunderbolt, rushed to Lihuo, and shouted loudly: "Be careful when you leave the fire!"
Suddenly, a solemn and majestic figure appeared in front of Ye Qingcheng. He was about a foot two tall, dressed in white bone armor, with a bull's head and a gold ring on his nose. At the same time as he appeared, he swung his extremely strong arm and punched Ye Qingcheng.
Under this terrifying fist power, Ye Qingcheng actually had the illusion of being crushed. It was an extremely dangerous induction, but he didn't dare to retreat, and the fire was still behind him. So, he could only pull out the Thunder Greatsword, holding the hilt of the sword with one hand and the tip of the sword with the other, trying to resist the blow with the sword.
As a result, there was an unexpected scene.
"Click!!!!"
A deafening thunderstorm sounded, and Ye Qingcheng's body suddenly shattered into thunderbolts, flying in all directions, and there was only a thunder sword left in the air, "clicking" and blasting thunder and lightning.
"Hmph, little fairy, dare to spread wild in the underworld!" After shattering Ye Qingcheng with a punch, the bull-headed ghost god said in a majestic voice.
Lihuo was so frightened by his terrifying aura that he didn't dare to take another step. At the same time, the thunderbolts flying in the air quickly gathered together and recondensed into Ye Qingcheng's body. The body of the fairy spirit was not afraid of shattering, but after reuniting his body, blood still appeared on the corner of Ye Qingcheng's mouth, obviously he was injured.
"Don't act rashly, this guy is a demigod. Ye Qingcheng held the Thunder Sword and blocked it in front of Lihuo.
At this time, what he didn't expect was that a thunderbolt flew out of the Thunder Sword uncontrollably, and it quickly condensed into a figure in the air, and the word "Judgment" was printed on its back.
"Old Cow!" said the Judgment Sword Soul in surprise.
"You-" The Minotaur Ghost God stared at the trial with wide eyes, and stammered, "Trial, trial, judgment senior?"
"Haha, long time no see, have you ever missed me?"
Don't do it, the bull-headed ghost god actually shed tears with excitement, he cried loudly, hugged the judgment sword soul, and said, "I didn't expect to meet you again, it's great, it's great." ”
"What's going on?" the judge asked, puzzled, "where is the horse face?"
"Ma Mian is dead, you and Styx (Styx Sword) are missing, Black and White Impermanence is also dead, and I am the only one left of our first generation of old guys. "The bull-headed ghost god has changed from a majestic god of war to a wronged child, constantly crying to the judgment.
Ye Qingcheng was relieved when he saw that he was also an upright character.
"Why are they all dead?" the judge asked.
"Except for me, they all want to fight for the throne of Hades, and in the end they kill each other...... Fortunately, the truly powerful Hades was born, otherwise the underworld would be a mess. Niu Tou let go of the trial, looked at Ye Qingcheng with dark eyes, and said, "Who are they?"
"This is my master, Ye Qingcheng. This is his brother, away from the fire. The trial introduced.
The bull head opened his mouth wide, shocked for a long time, and then said: "It's just a little fairy, how can you match the master of the previous generation?"
"Hehe, you don't know. The judge smiled and said, "This is the biological son of the old Hades, the brother of the new Hades!"
Niu Tou was shocked again, and he hurriedly arched his hand and said, "It turns out that you are so big, and you were disrespectful just now." ”
"The responsibility of the seniors is there, and there is no need to apologize. Ye Qingcheng smiled with a smile.
"Can you take us to the new Hades now?" said the judge.
"No, you have to follow the rules. The bull shook his head honestly and said: "Strange disasters (referring to the living people who break into the underworld) will all have to go to Xiaoqiankun, and she will make a decision after I report to the king of Hades." However, Hades' character, as soon as she learns that you are here, she will summon you immediately. ”
"Is that too much?" said the judge.
"Senior, since it's a rule, let's follow it. Ye Qingcheng said with a smile, he has been here for half a year, and he is not in a hurry for this time and a half.
Xiao Qiankun is a place specially prepared for the living, so to speak, a prison or shelter. The bull head led Ye Qingcheng and Lihuo, and after flying over the Stygian Sea, he saw a majestic mountain on the east shore of the sea, and there was a deep cave on the mountainside, which was not closed, but there were two sheep's horn skeletons standing on the side of the cave, which should be the Underworld Guard.
"How many of you, please?" said the Minotaur.
After Ye Qingcheng and Lihuo were led into the dark cave, bloody ancient lamps burned on both sides of the rock wall, making the entire cave look terrifying.
"The resident here is the Nuwa ethnic group, about 300,000 people. Although they are few in number, they are a very good race, and the two Hades are from among them......" The Minotaur said with admiration as he walked ahead.
"Decades ago, was there a monk named Kong, who came here with an old man named Yuntian?" Ye Qingcheng said.
The blood-red cavern is long, and there is no end in sight.
"Yes, I sent it in. The bull-headed ghost god said, "However, Sora has become the first soul-crossing monk under the throne of Lord Hades, and Yuntian has also been reincarnated. ”
"Can you send us to the place where they used to live?" Ye Qingcheng pleaded, "That old man is my mentor. ”
"No problem. The bull-headed god of war agreed, and said, "The bodies of Dadi and Yuntian are still there." ”
After walking for about an hour, they reached the end of the cave. This cave leads to another world, which is more like a place for people to live than an underworld. Green mountains and clear waters, there are cities and fertile fields, there are ordinary domestic animals and never-before-seen spirit animals.
There are towering mountains, misty clouds and smoke, and it is the paradise of the underworld. The aura here is many times richer than that of the human world, and the creatures living here are generally stronger than the creatures of the human world.
Under the leadership of Niu Tou, Ye Qingcheng and the others walked through a sea of rape flowers.
"This is all planted by the people of the Nuwa tribe, and when you walk out of this field, you will see a wooden house, which is the former residence of the sky and the clouds. The bull head said, "I will not go with you, but after I report to the king of Hades, I believe you will soon be able to meet her." ”
After Ye Qingcheng and Lihuo walked out of the rape flower field, they saw several simple croppers walking in the field from a distance, they all had red hair, and they knew that they were from the Nuwa tribe at first sight. In the distance, five ancient trees grew by a pond, and under the trees was a small wooden house.
Their pace is not fast, even a little dignified. They had seen the earth hidden, its corpse was a huge wooden tumor, still in the same posture as it was alive, tentacles pierced under the five trees, but it was already stiff, its body was smaller than a wooden house, it looked like a big spider from a distance, although it was dead, it was still loyal to its master's side.
As Ye Qingcheng got closer and closer, everything in front of the cabin came into his eyes.
In front of the door of the cabin, there was a round stone, and a thin figure in a gray robe sat cross-legged on it. He was facing the direction that Ye Qingcheng had come from, and seemed to have been waiting for the disciple to arrive.
At this time, tears had blurred Ye Qingcheng's eyes, and he knelt down nine steps away from Yuntian's corpse, and said hoarsely, "Master, the apprentice has come to see you." ”
