Chapter 59: Purgatory
Below the Black Tower, a group of black-clothed monks of the Netherworld Sect were coming on foot, two in a row, moving extremely neatly, holding a box in their hands.
In this group of black-clothed monks, Chu Tiange was disguised in the middle, wanting to enter the Black Tower to learn the truth. He was a man with brains, so even if he was disguised in this group of blackfriars, he couldn't see anything out of the ordinary.
After a while, the heavy black door slowly opened, as if to welcome the group of blackfriars. The monks of the Yin Netherworld Sect on both sides of the road guarded it, in order to prevent any accidents with the things that these sect masters needed.
Chu Tiange followed everyone into the Black Tower, and then the inexplicable teleportation array made them disappear from the place, he only felt a dizziness, but he knew that this teleportation array was somewhat similar to the teleportation array of the Heavenly Star Sect.
The only difference is that this teleportation array has too much dead air entangled, and it doesn't look so holy.
After a long time, Chu Tiange slowly opened his eyes, only to see that he had come to a Shura purgatory, everyone continued to move forward, and Chu Tiange's eyes looked into the distance from time to time.
He found that there seemed to be many monks imprisoned in the dark iron cages around him, Chu Tiange was shocked, the people who could be imprisoned like this were at least Xuanyuan Realm level powerhouses.
Suddenly, everyone paused, Chu Tiange didn't know why, but he didn't want to reveal his identity, so he immediately pretended to follow everyone's movements.
Chu Tiange found that they were now surrounding an abyss that was no more than ten zhang in radius, and he could clearly feel the cool air coming from this dark abyss.
"That's definitely the problem, but there's something unsightly hidden beneath the abyss. Chu Tiange guessed curiously.
He knew that this abyss was definitely not simple, but he didn't know what to do next.
After a while, I saw these black-clothed monks lifting the box above their heads with both hands, and then silently reciting some incantation, although Chu Tiange didn't understand, he also pretended to recite it.
Right now, we are in a wolf's den, and if we are not careful, the whole plan may fall through.
As everyone meditated, the black dead qi in the dark abyss slowly surged up like a spring, enveloping all sides. But these black gases don't seem to have any intention of stopping.
Chu Tiange only felt that the mutilated souls in the box were being dragged into the abyss by the dead air, and it seemed that there was a big mouth below that would never know how to be satisfied and greedily absorbing these weak souls.
But the matter is not over, these more than 20 people, including Chu Tiange, were swept down by the breath of death, this sudden change made everyone afraid, especially Chu Tiange, he was even more depressed, this seems to be none of his business, if he takes his life here, it is obviously not worth it.
"I'm leaning, I don't bring such a trick. Chu Tiange called out in fear in his heart. But he couldn't stop the rapid fall of his body, and at this moment, he seemed to see a bottomless abyss, purgatory on earth.
"Bump. β
More than twenty people fell together, Chu Tiange was smashed to the core, with his strong physique, he could still feel deep pain, not to mention the more than twenty unlucky monks around.
One by one, the monks lay on the ground and wailed, Chu Tiange didn't care about the pain on his body, and looked around, only to see that the surroundings were covered with white bones.
Beneath the bones, the rich magma was tumbling, and above the lava were several chains pulling a huge and terrifying cauldron.
Inside the cauldron, Chu Tiange could clearly hear the wailing of his soul, surrounded by the statue of the fierce and vicious Shura, where is this place of cultivation, this is the purgatory of the world.
In about half an hour, there were already many monks around, Chu Tiange looked at the cultivation of some of these people, and found that they all had cultivation above the Earth Emperor Realm.
Chu Tiange pretended to be calm, if his identity was discovered at this time, he would really be caught in the net, and many times, Chu Tiange was laughing at himself for being a fool.
Obviously, he has figured out the whole thing, but he has a great curiosity, and now he still knows whether he will live or die.
"Get up. β
The more than a dozen powerhouses of the Earth Emperor Realm around urged. Although their faces were separated by a thick layer of black cloth, Chu Tiange could see the ill intentions of these monks.
Hearing this, the twenty or so monks immediately got up from the ground, and the wailing was no longer there, and they all stood cautiously in place, waiting for the judgment of fate.
"Lord Leader suspects that the monks of the Celestial Star Sect will be mixed in with you, and from now on, every batch of monks who come in will be strictly vetted to prevent those despicable Celestial Star Sect monks from doing ghosts in the Soul Gift Box. The first Earth Emperor Realm peak powerhouse said proudly.
"Your Excellency, how do you censor it?"
One of the monks asked cautiously. I didn't even dare to speak out loud.
The arrogant monk pointed to the altar in the distance, which was less than five feet, and said, "Stand up, if anyone does not have the breath of death in his body, then he will surely die a miserable death." β
Chu Tiange was secretly scared after hearing this, it was obvious that this review was coming for him, although he did not practice the exercises close to death, but his body had been tempered by Huangquan, and it should not be difficult to avoid the censorship.
"Do you understand?"
"Understood. β
More than 20 people replied in unison.
Under the guidance of the peak cultivators of the Emperor Realm, more than 20 people walked towards the altar one after another, and all of them were fine, and finally arrived at Chu Tiange.
When he stepped on the altar, he found that there was no movement, and his hanging heart slowly fell, and before he was discovered, he had a chance to live.
In a short time, more than twenty people completely passed, which proved that there were no Heavenly Star Sect cultivators in their group, and Chu Tiange was still secretly having fun there!
The powerhouse at the peak of the Earth Emperor Realm nodded with satisfaction and motioned for everyone to leave, but at this moment, the wind blew fiercely, quickly blowing everyone away.
Even Chu Tiange was a little unbearable. There is a dead breath in the wind, and it is not a good thing to inhale too much.
The black qi condensed into a huge head, and the head was looking at everyone coldly, and all the monks did not dare to look up at this huge head, for fear of being swallowed by it.
"Why do I feel righteous and righteous?"
The huge head said in surprise.
Then it began to slowly differentiate, and it actually divided into more than twenty heads and attacked the more than twenty monks. Everyone seemed to be frozen.
Chu Tiange found that he couldn't even control his thoughts, such a strange killing move, he really couldn't think of anything other than the soul suppression technique.
"Day, do you want to capsize in the gutter? Chu Tiange said in horror in his head. A look of uneasiness immediately flooded into his head.
When he opened his eyes, he saw that the fist-sized head was looking at him fiercely.
"Look up. β
This head said to Chu Tiange.
No, Chu Tiange could only raise his head slowly, and at such a close distance, he felt a little disgusted, but this head seemed to be about to pick himself apart, and he didn't leave for a long time.
After looking at the head for a long time, it found that Chu Tiange was not its target, so it went back again. Composed of a huge head. I saw it plunge headlong into the terrible cauldron, greedily absorbing these wailing souls. Chu Tiange secretly pinched a cold sweat, and he was almost recognized by his identity.
Then, a burst of black air blew, and everyone had already come to the outside of the Black Tower, everything just now was like a dream, but it was so terrifying.
Chu Tiange found a secluded place to get rid of the more than twenty people, and since he already knew the reason, there was no need for him to continue to stay.
He originally thought that he would have to go through a big battle to figure out the cause of the matter, but he didn't expect it to be so simple, although he was almost discovered, he was still intact and unharmed.
Chu Tiange, who escaped from the ascension to heaven, felt an inexplicable sense of joy.
At the bottom of the Black Tower, one of the soul boxes suddenly exploded in the cauldron that fell into the soul boiling, blowing up the souls in the pot clean. Even the huge lifeless head exploded in all directions.
Then the heads were put back together, and they roared angrily, "Bring me those twenty, I want them to live rather than die." β
I saw that the gate of the Black Tower opened quickly, and a team of Hell Knights was chasing after the place where the more than twenty Yin Netherworld Sect monks left, Chu Tiange, who was hiding in the distance, looked a little frightened, if he hadn't thrown off the team early, I was afraid that he would have ended up withdrawing his soul.
From the moment Chu Tiange did his tricks and feet in the box, their fate was already sealed.
It turned out that when he fell into the dark abyss, Chu Tiange entered a thunder attribute yuan force into the box, and as long as the time was ripe, that trace of yuan force would explode.
Although Chu Tiange knew that he had temporarily destroyed the Yin Netherworld Sect's short-term plan, he believed that this destruction was only a trivial destruction.
Below the Black Tower, the leader of the Xuan General Realm knelt in front of his head in fear, not even daring to come out, as if waiting for the punishment that belonged to him.
"The subordinates are not effective in investigating and punishing, please punish the sect master. The leader said respectfully to the black head.
"Hey...... hey" the black head laughed, but its laughter was so terrible. The leader, who was kneeling on the ground, was already shivering all over.
"Get out! I won't be able to spare you when this sect master comes out, if such an accident happens again, you just wait for your soul to be drained!" The black head jumped into the cauldron after speaking, as if it was recuperating its soul.
As for the leader, he cautiously exited the dark abyss.
Outside the Black Tower, the more than twenty Netherworld Sect monks were still brought to the top of the main hall, and the leader of the Xuan General Realm looked at the more than twenty Netherworld Sect monks with a sneer.
The twenty-odd people looked scared and frightened.
Then the leader silently thought something in his heart, but he saw that the souls in the bodies of the more than twenty monks all flew towards the leader.
"Lord Chief, spare my life, I really don't know anything. The souls wailed. But how could the leader let them go, and directly swallowed the souls of the more than twenty monks into his mouth, and then walked towards the black tower in a relieved mood.
Chu Tiange couldn't see all this, and at this time, he walked through the strange death forest again, evading the pursuit of many Yin Netherworld Sect monks along the way.
A day later, Chu Tiange finally came to the meeting place with Xinglan, seeing that Chu Tiange was safe and sound, Xinglan stepped forward to hug Chu Tiange with tears in her eyes, and at this moment, time seemed to stand still again.
Chu Tiange pinched Xinglan's nose and said, "Fool, what are you crying about, didn't I come back safe and sound?"
Xinglan sobbed, "I thought I'd never see you again." β
Chu Tiange was speechless, if all women were as troublesome as Xinglan, then he would be able to bear it in the future, but he believed that Miaoxiang definitely did not belong to a petite person like Xinglan.
Now that the task has been completed, all that remains is to converge with Star Wars, thinking about Star Wars being stubbornly tracked by the Beast Taming Tribe, Chu Tiange has an inexplicable worry.
Xinglan said to Chu Tiange, "Senior brother, what are we going to do next?"
Chu Tiange thought for a while before thinking of a way out, and said to Xinglan: "Spare the Dark Witch Sect from the north of the Death Swamp and join Star Wars. β
Xinglan nodded, now that the Dark Witch Sect is heavily guarded, it will definitely not be able to mix in again, and only by sparing this terrible sect can it have a chance to escape from the southern frontier.
On the vast death swamp, Chu Tiange was walking towards the north with Xinglan, at this time, the two of them were getting farther and farther away from the center of the swamp, as long as they passed another hundred miles, they could spare the powerful Black Witch Sect.
At this time, Chu Tiange paused without warning, Xinglan was a little puzzled, and just wanted to speak, but Chu Tiange took the lead in speaking, "Friend, I've been following you for a long time, isn't it time to show up?" Chu Tiange said calmly.
Xinglan was puzzled, and looked around, except for the black and smelly mud pond and the decaying trees, there was nothing at all?
After a long time, Chu Tiange said again: "If you don't show up again, I will force you to show up." β
"Haha, dare to sneak into Southern Xinjiang alone, sure enough, there are two times, I am so well hidden, since I was still discovered by you. A voice came from Chu Tiange's left.
Then a figure jumped out of the black quagmire, looking at the two of them proudly, Chu Tiange looked up, although the person in front of him was covered with his face, his short figure made Chu Tiange see at a glance that this monk was obviously from the Netherworld Sect.
It's just that what makes Chu Tiange curious is why this monk didn't make a move on him when he was in the Black Tower, and only appeared at this time. Although this black-clothed monk had the strength of the early stage of the Earth King Realm, Chu Tiange believed that if he made a move, this black-clothed monk would definitely not be able to stop him.
"Who is Your Excellency?" Chu Tiange asked curiously.
The black-clothed monk mocked, "Have you ever heard of the Netherworld Twins, that is, my Netherworld and my dead junior brother, the Ghost Netherworld. β
Chu Tiange suddenly realized, it turned out that this so-called Yin Underworld was actually the senior brother of the Ghost Underworld, a twin, if the Ghost Underworld had not fallen, I am afraid that after a thousand years, the Yin Underworld Sect would give birth to two terrifying powerhouses like Yin Kui.
Chu Tiange didn't answer his question, and continued: "Why don't you make a move on me outside the Black Tower, but you only appear now, aren't you afraid that I will kill you?" Chu Tiange's words were extremely arrogant.
"You are so naΓ―ve, I thought I was going to catch you all, but now I don't have that interest, I will kill you first, and then find another person, so that you will not come back. Yin Mingzi sneered.
