Chapter 423: The Second Key Arrives
No matter how much he complained in his heart, a situation like Netherworld was beneficial to him.
Back at the inn, Xu Mochen took out the first secret lock he got.
It is said to be a secret lock, but in fact, it looks no different from an ordinary key, but there is a formation inside.
Xu Mochen estimated that it should be a combination of ten keys in order to launch the formation and open the door to the Nine Secluded Land.
The question now is how to get the remaining nine keys.
It is definitely not possible to take it in the bright light.
In other words, it is basically a means of stealing.
There is only Tang Derun by his side, so it seems that the easiest thing to start with is the Demon Beast Palace.
He said his idea, and Tang Derun agreed.
It's just that ordinary people need all kinds of procedures if they want to enter the Demon Beast Palace.
Tang Derun thought for a while: "Your Majesty, since there are so many sect categories of immortal cultivators in this Netherworld.
Strictly speaking, money can make ghosts grind, and in this underworld, when money is in place, the problem can be much smaller. ”
The money mentioned here is the spirit stone or the fairy fate and the like.
Xu Mochen doesn't have a heavenly treasure, and there are more than 100 million spirit stones left, so it's okay to find out the news, but if you want to mix into the Demon Beast Palace, I'm afraid it's not enough to see.
Tang Derun had another idea: "Wei Chen thinks, the most important thing is the reason to go to the Demon Beast Palace.
If His Majesty puts on a posture of going out to see, it won't cost too much to be accommodating. ”
Xu Mochen held his chin: "The meaning of love, it is not difficult for me to get in." ”
"Weichen can give it a try," Tang Derun asked, "It's just that if you can get to the inside of the Demon Beast Palace, there is no way for this Weichen." ”
"Yes," Xu Mochen immediately took out all the remaining spirit stones, "Aiqing might as well walk around." ”
Tang Derun took the spirit stone and disappeared into the room.
The next day, Xu Mochen was still waiting at the inn.
Tang Derun's words were to find the person in charge of the Demon Beast Hall domain.
The underworld also has some laws of the underworld, and immortal cultivators from other realms who come here usually have only one purpose.
That is, my relatives and friends have fallen, come and look for it, and see if I can see the remnant soul.
Therefore, there are relevant procedures for this in the underworld.
However, usually this kind of meeting is in the underworld area in front, not here in the Ten Temples.
But there are also those who came relatively late, and the remnant souls have already been sent to the Ten Palaces, and there is no way to get here.
As for the immortal cultivators in the Netherworld, they also turned a blind eye to this.
After all, they were able to get spirit stones from it, which was considered an extra income.
The staff, like the Demon Beast Realm, are all immortal cultivators in the local realm, and the realm is not high.
Not to mention the fairy fate, the usual spirit stones are also rare.
So Tang Derun hooked up very smoothly and reported a name.
The petty officer inquired about the information, then poked his head out and asked, "Brother, you really are not mistaken." ”
"That's right," Tang Derun looked puzzled, "It's been a while.
When I asked earlier, I said that it was sent here. ”
Because he collected a lot of money, the petty official checked it carefully several times, and finally shook his head: "There must be none." ”
As he spoke, he looked at the bag of spirit stones in his Sumeru mustard seeds, he had just seen it, and there were more than 10 million spiritual energy values in it.
It's enough for him for decades, and it's a little unwilling to take it out like this.
But the rules of the way cannot be broken, and even if the underworld acquiesces to these things, it cannot be taken out casually and widely publicized.
"Could it be a little special," Tang Derun frowned, "After all, my bloodline is rare." ”
"What kind of bloodline is my brother?" The petty officer asked.
Tang Derun stretched out his index finger and squeezed out a drop of blood.
"This is ......" That little official is also from the demon beast world, and of course he is sensitive to bloodlines, "It's a Qi ......"
"Be careful! Be careful! Tang Derun withdrew his hand, "No, it's just that the ancestors got a little bit back then, so our clan all carries the blood of the Qilin." ”
"In this case," the junior official immediately believed, "I'm afraid that the remnant soul of the special bloodline will be sent to the Demon Beast Palace, and there will be special personnel to deal with it."
To tell you the truth, there is nothing I can do about that little brother. ”
Tang Derun naturally understands that it is not powerless, but that the money has not yet arrived.
So naturally, he took out another bag: "Be accommodating, I also know that things are not easy."
It's not that my clan is scarce in the first place, and now that my brother has fallen, it's not like I'm going to send it on the last ride. ”
Saying that, he leaned over and whispered: "I can't hide it, my brother has a bit of a heritage, which I don't have."
My father was eccentric, and now that I'm dead, I wonder if I can try my luck. ”
The petty officials became more and more trusted, this is common, otherwise who would have nothing to do to run here to see the fallen souls.
Since the purpose is so strong, it is necessary to continue to extort money.
The junior official frowned: "It's not that my brother is deliberately making things difficult, it's really the words of the palace......"
"I understand! I know it all! Tang Derun smiled and took out two more bags of spirit stones, one in front of the junior official, "I just want to give it a try, as for the result, it's second." ”
The junior official understands that this person in front of him has the blood of a unicorn, and he is definitely not ordinary in the demon beast world.
An existence like this is naturally more important than tens of millions of spirit stones.
On the side of the Ten Palaces, similar things are also common.
He thought about it, and finally took the spirit stone away: "It can only be said that it is difficult to make it difficult, mainly for the sake of the elder brother's hard work."
In recent years, my brother has fallen, and it is rare to be able to do this to the level of my brother. ”
Tang Derun climbed along the pole: "That's not it, fortunately, I met a kind-hearted person like my brother." ”
The well-wisher was very satisfied: "The old brother left the contact information, and will notify you when the younger brother arranges it." ”
The matter was settled, and Tang Derun went back to report.
The two originally thought that it would take a few more days, but they knew that in less than half a day, the junior official would have news.
You can let Tang Derun go in and see if you can meet his so-called brother.
In this way, it is natural that after Xu Mochen changed his form, he changed into Tang Derun's appearance.
The strength of the petty official is not high, so he can't see anything unusual, but he just tells him repeatedly.
After all, the words of the Ten Halls are equivalent to the state secrets department, and they can't be entered casually.
Xu Mochen nodded frequently, indicating that he knew very well.
The next day, the junior official took Xu Mochen to the entrance of the Demon Beast Palace.
But it's not a gate, it's a small gate in the middle of nowhere.
There was already someone standing at the door, and the little official saw it and stepped forward to greet him with a smile.
The man looked at Xu Mochen and asked, "Do you know the rules inside?" ”
Xu Mochen nodded: "The adults have explained, after all, they are abiding by the rules." ”
Only then did the man be satisfied: "I don't care what your identity is in the Demon Beast Realm, but this is the Netherworld, so naturally there is."
The rules here. ”
Xu Mochen only said yes.
Only then did the man wave his hand and motioned for Xu Mochen to follow.
After entering, it is actually a bit like a royal palace, with gardens and large and small palaces.
"In the case of special bloodlines, in the Nine Hall," the man walked quickly, "very close to the main hall of the hall master.
To be clear, there is only one stick of incense time, and there can be no mistakes. ”
Xu Mochen calculated, a stick of incense time, I don't know if it is enough to steal the secret lock of the Demon Beast Palace.
The place where the man took Xu Mochen was a side hall.
There were quite a few people in it, and there were also a few immortal cultivators from other realms like Xu Mochen, and it was estimated that the reason for coming here was similar.
It doesn't seem to be a special case, but that's how they do it all the time.
"Your words, you have to ......" The man took Xu Mochen to a separate room, turned around and was about to speak, but saw Xu Mochen raise his hand and gently slap it, the man's eyes widened, and he slowly went down.
Because it is not a dead hand, Xu Mochen estimates that if he falls into a coma, he will also be free to take a stick of incense.
He set up a screen in the room, followed into the form of the man, took the waist card, pushed the door open and walked out.
A few people in the same clothes walked up to him, and he pretended to know him to say hello.
Everything went well, and no one doubted.
This was not his destination, he glanced at it, and the immortal cultivators of the other realms were also taken to a separate room, where they should have met the remnant souls.
The main hall is not far from here, although Xu Mochen doesn't know him, but the layout here is similar to the palace, so he followed the main seat to find it.
Not long after, I saw a particularly magnificent palace, and there were several guards standing at the door.
Xu Mochen stepped forward and handed over the waist card, he was actually not sure if he could enter, and sure enough, one of the guards spoke: "Why do you want to go to the main hall." ”
"Something is wrong," Xu Mochen replied with a smile, "There is a remnant soul to see, from the demon beast world, but it is the Qilin bloodline, I want to report it." ”
"Qilin bloodline," several guards surrounded them, they were originally from demon beasts, so they naturally knew the bloodline, "That's rare, is there still this bloodline now?" ”
Xu Mochen kept smiling: "It's not pure, it's just that I got the bloodline inheritance, and I was thinking about whether to report to the hall master." ”
"You kid is lucky," the earliest guard patted Xu Mochen on the shoulder, "This kind of ancient bloodline, even if it's just inheritance, is incredible."
Let's go, let's go, report to the hall master, it's also a great credit.
After it is developed, take care of it. ”
Xu Mochen naturally took out some spirit stones, and everyone divided them.
This is actually similar to the yamen of some officials in the Daqian court, and he is familiar with the road.
After coming in, Xu Mochen picked a remote road, Tang Derun's bloodline is easy to use, but he can't really expose Tang Derun.
The Qilin bloodline is now almost extinct, and it is common sense for people with identity in the demon beast world to covet it.
He hid his tracks, and it wasn't long before he came to the vicinity of the main temple.
Before, he could only stare dryly, or sneak in.
But now it's different, he has the ability to hear the truth of the five powers.
activated the supernatural power, and sure enough, the voice in the hall could be heard clearly.
"So, the Son of Heaven has asked Xu Mochen to come to the underworld," the voice was quite young, presumably the hall master of the Demon Beast Hall was also the appearance of a young man, "I heard that guy almost destroyed the Demon Beast World, he is really an uneasy lord." ”
"But it's not," another voice said, it should be his staff, "It's just that the demon king's side is breathing, we are on the same front as Xu Tianzi, and there are some things that are not good to do too much." ”
"Tsk!" The Demon Beast Hall Master was speechless, "But this is the underworld, even if we want to help Xu Mochen, we can only do it in secret." ”
"My subordinates heard that he is currently in the city of death, investigating the entrance to the underworld." The staff replied.
"How can it be so easy to find," the hall master sneered, "I thought that if I didn't make a move, Xu Mochen would be an empty shell." ”
"Hall Master, do you guess if the Son of Heaven will notice the Nine Shadows ......" The staff was a little worried.
"What if you notice," the hall master sighed, "it takes ten keys to open the portal to the Nine Shadows.
I can't just give him the key. ”
The staff also smiled: "The subordinates just think about it, besides, we don't know what Xu Tianzi's plans are." ”
"He probably goes back to the Nine Secluded Land," the hall master muttered, "but if you go with the people of the underworld, I'm afraid you won't be able to see what you want to see." ”
The staff lowered their voices: "The Nine Secluded Lands are forbidden places in the underworld, and my subordinates think that if Xu Tianzi wants to go, it will be beneficial to us." ”
"Be careful!" The hall master stopped, "We are still in the Netherworld, this is not the Demon Beast Realm, peeking into the secrets of other realms will cause problems."
It's better to ...... I heard that among the people brought by Xu Mochen, there are also demon beasts in the world.
Why don't you send someone to contact you and get the news out. ”
"The hall master is wise," the staff immediately patted their ass, "In this way, even if Xu Tianzi doesn't notice the Nine Secluded Lands, he won't be able to." ”
Then the two were discussing how to pass the news to Xu Mochen.
Xu Mochen, who was lurking outside, was speechless for a while, he knew that they had this plan, and he didn't have to sneak around.
But then again, if you don't sneak around, you can't hear such an inside story.
After talking for a while, the hall master arranged it properly, and then let the staff handle it.
Xu Mochen pondered, wait a minute, let Tang Derun touch it.
Otherwise, if the people here go to the City of the Dead, the matter of their own absence over there is likely to be exposed.
After receiving the order, the staff immediately left.
Hearing the movement in the hall, the hall master stood for a while and muttered: "The Nine Secluded Land, if we also have the opportunity to enter, it will be very good." ”
Then footsteps sounded, and he seemed to be walking inside.
A slight fluctuation sounded, which seemed to be the sound of opening the formation.
Xu Mochen guessed if he would go to see where the key was.
Sure enough, there was a "click" sound, as if something had opened the box.
The hall master sighed: "There is only one key, and it is useless."
But just sending it to Xu Mochen like this, it's not good to be exposed. ”
As he spoke, he closed the box again.
Then there was a sound of footsteps, and as it faded away, the hall master left the main hall.
In this way, this place has become Xu Mochen's world.
Originally, I thought that the Five Forces Hearing Truth had no effect, but now that I look at it, it is really wonderful.
Especially in the underworld, in the black mist, the divine consciousness loses most of its effect, and the voice is the best aid.
He sneaked in, followed what he heard, and made his way all the way, and sure enough, he came to a glimpse of the wall.
Since I know that I have to move, it is not a problem to unlock the formation.
After opening it, there was a secret room inside, and with almost no effort, he found the box where the key was placed.
Once unlocked, another key comes into view.
Xu Mochen took out his divine sense and swept it over, which was similar to what Chu Jiang gave him.
Very durable, the second key in hand.
