Chapter 349: Netherworld—Strange Mother
The deep pit is extremely black, and without the blockage of the black mountain, endless yin and evil continue to pour out of the pit and the netherworld.
That scene was like those big chimneys of later generations.
It's just that when you stick to the edge, you won't feel the chimney-like heat and unbearable coughing smoke, but only the biting cold and creepy screams.
This is just Zhang Ke's personal feelings.
If they were ordinary people, the moment they approached the pit, they would have to be overwhelmed by a huge amount of yin and evil spirits, like puppets.
The yang energy in one's body will be extinguished in an instant, and then the soul will fly away!
Yes, there will not even be a chance to turn into a trick!
Don't look at the evil spirits, demons, living corpses. These treacherous beings have the necessary elements of survival, just as the spiritual power is as important to cultivators and spirits, but no matter how strong the spiritual power is, it will only push the cultivation speed of practitioners and spirits to speed up, but if the yin evil exceeds the upper limit of the concentration required by these rules, it will destroy their bodies, and even destroy them at the fundamental level.
After all, the essence of yin and evil is still the residue of the operation of heaven and earth.
Yin Qi is the remnant of the Great Sun, and evil Qi is the residue of the leylines, although it has been transformed into the Netherworld and can be used by evil creatures such as evil spirits, but its essence is still vicious and chaotic.
But Zhang Ke doesn't need to worry about the shady problem.
Although he is young and weak, his flesh and bloodline have grown to a rather majestic level, even if it is the body of an earth god alone, its thickness is far from being something that can be shaken by a little yin!
Not to mention, before these yin evils were created, Cangyu had already flown out of his arms.
Suspended in the center of the pit, and then accompanied by the flow of brilliance on the seal, countless yin evils were like Ru Yan returning to the nest, and they threw themselves into the jade.
There's no way to get used to it.
Although the yin and evil that flowed out of this pit was only an insignificant part of the vast netherworld of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was also a good material for Zhang Ke to conceive and nourish his own future netherworld.
For a small amount of insignificant evil for a copy, but it can make the hard work accumulated in a few years in later generations, why not do it?
As for what to steal, to steal
How can things between relatives be called stealing? How can you smear people's innocence out of thin air.
After Cangyu absorbed it for a while, absorbing most of the yin evil that was scattered in the air and surging in the pit, although the yin evil was still continuously instilled into the ground through the pit, the environment in the pit was not as dark and dark as it had been.
Although, there is no need to absorb the yin, Zhang Ke's gaze can also go straight to the bottom of the pit
Looking down, I saw that the Netherworld Cave from Black Mountain took on the shape of an inverted funnel, starting from the narrow mouth of the pit, and the further down the place became, the wider it became, and finally the part near the bottom of the pit suddenly became a wild place.
As far as the eye can see, there is a continuous nether mountain range, with no vegetation on the earth-covered peaks, and occasionally wandering lonely spirits can be seen on the dimly lit gravel slopes, but most of the place is quite desolate.
And in the rolling mountains, there is a place for a peak that is vacant.
It's as if the mountain has gained vitality and walked by itself.
All that remains is a huge pit in place.
And in the pit, the gloom is pervasive, and the ghosts are constantly wailing.
Countless corpses were piled up together, forming a very treacherous platform at the bottom of the pit.
The white bones stacked on the platform fluctuated every few dozen breaths, exuding vigorous vitality like the heartbeat of a living being, and the yin evil around them gathered towards the bottom of the pit under the traction of this white bone platform.
The rich yin and evil gathered on the platform at the bottom of the pit, refining day and night, eroding these strange souls who were tied to the platform, prompting them to change from ordinary lonely souls to fierce souls.
And the superfluous yin evil is pulled by the platform, straight into the sky, through this portal connecting the human world and the netherworld, a steady stream of people to the world.
"Looks like this is the base camp of Montenegro?"
Standing on the edge of the pit, Zhang Ke looked down and turned his head to look behind him.
At the same time, in the four corners of the city, the two brothers Zhang Heng were busy flying.
Although because of the one in the city, the evil tricks in this whole treacherous city were shocked and didn't dare to move, but this was only a period of time, and if the time was extended, it was inevitable that some evil tricks would have the intention of running away.
Well, they can kill the black mountain that is pressing on their heads with three punches and two kicks.
As a witness to everything, none of the weirdos in the entire weird city dared to avenge Montenegro, not to mention, the weirdos didn't have so much conscience, and they had any thoughts of avenging the king.
With only their souls left to protect their true spirits, they are more willing to survive than anyone else!
In this way, Zhang Heng and the others must seal off the entire treacherous city before these evil treachers react, and then they can talk about separating people and judging them.
But the lack of manpower also made the two of them busy outside the city all the time, and they couldn't even take care of the time to catch their breath.
Retract your gaze.
About touching, Zhang Heng and they have to deal with this matter for a day or two, even with the help of follow-up manpower, they can't deal with all the matters before the next sun sets, so Zhang Ke thought about going to the netherworld first.
Since the mission is to kill the gods.
Where else is there more than the gods of the netherworld?
Although, judging from the content of his negotiations with Zhang Tianshi, as well as what he saw and heard on the way before, most of the treacherous gods with certain ambitions have left their homes and careers to come to the world, ready to fight for wealth.
But there are always some fish that slip through the net and are too lazy to move their nests.
Of course, there is also a situation that when the Heavenly Court used as the background board in the copy has no time to take care of anything else, the safety of the Netherworld is theoretically far greater than that of the ground, so even if he eats a little bit, it should not attract attention.
Well, just eat two mouthfuls!
After observing the situation of the Netherworld for a while, and determining that there was no obvious deceitful aura within a radius of a hundred miles below the pit, Zhang Ke put away the blue jade and jumped down.
"Whew! Call! Call! ”
There was a strong wind in my ears, and the sound of wolves howling was incessant.
He landed smoothly in his hometown in Montenegro, and after stepping on the gravel ground with his feet, a raging fire spread out at his feet.
The Samadhi True Fire covered the platform in just a moment, and the scorching heat instantly ignited the platform bred by the evil arts, as well as the thousands of unjust souls trapped on the platform, and under the spread of the scorching fire, the unjust souls let out even more terrible wails!
The flames scorched the ribs that ran through them, and the spirits whose limbs had regained their mobility scurried like headless flies in the fire.
But before they could run far, their steps were sudden, their hands scratching their chests frantically, and their hideous and distorted faces showed a particularly unwilling expression.
In the next moment, a dazzling light burst out on the face illuminated by the flames.
With a single mouth, a pillar of fire several meters long erupted, and at the same time, the entire Seven Apertures also had a pillar of fire formed by flames gushing out continuously, and the tortured body was burned away at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning into a smear of ashes, and drifting in all directions with the rise of the sea of fire.
And if you move your gaze to the sea of fire at this time, you can see that with the mass dissolution of the unjust souls, the light spots of mottled and dense black spots are blown up with the rising heat wave, and then slowly drift towards the surroundings under the impetus of the gloom, and finally fall to the ground and dissolve.
These are the true spirits of the wronged souls.
Although the Samadhi True Fire is also a special attack spell for the true spirit, a little bit of it is the end of the soul scattered, but some ordinary unjust souls are not worthy of Zhang Ke's such ruthlessness, the key is that killing them has no gain on the dungeon, but because of the large number of extermination, it is easy to cause the Netherworld, and even the entire dungeon world to be rejected.
After setting a fire to the old nest of Black Mountain and completely eradicating all the foundations of its existence, Zhang Ke gathered the sea of fire, drove the auspicious clouds and began to gallop into the distance.
Of course, before leaving, he still observed the surrounding situation, and after making sure that there was no peeping gaze, he immediately pried away a mountain next to the Black Mountain and stuffed it into the jade to slowly refine.
The Netherworld of the Great Han is the same as the situation on the ground, the only difference is that there are few living beings in the Netherworld, and even if there are, it is most likely that the local gods have looted from the ground.
Filled with darkness and darkness all year round, there are strange spirits all over the place.
Zhang Ke flew not far away, and he encountered a large number of wandering lonely souls and wild treachers, and occasionally he could see some soldiers and souls wearing standard armor walking through the land in groups, holding shackles and chains, connecting those wandering lonely souls and wild treachers, and after accumulating to a certain extent, they rushed back in the direction where they came with sufficient harvest.
Leave aside all the things on earth for the time being.
At this time, Zhang Ke was thinking about which direction to go.
Because the Netherworld is different from the earth, the vastness of the Netherworld does not need to abide by those cumbersome rules at all, as long as it is a world with supernatural factors, with the natural operation of heaven and earth, all kinds of evil qi generated are poured down, and the area of the Netherworld is expanding almost every minute and every second.
In this way, it is often seen that when the material plane has only one piece of land, the attached lower plane expands tenfold or even dozens of times.
On the ground, Zhang Ke still has the map provided by Zhang Tianshi, who can clearly distinguish the direction and his position, but in this netherworld, when the terrain is unknown, it is actually quite troublesome.
There is no need to worry about the problem of the back road.
Before leaving, Zhang Ke had already buried Cangyu under the big pit of the Black Mountain body, slowly absorbing the Netherworld Soil for thousands of miles around the Black Mountain.
With Cangyu as a beacon, Zhang Ke can find his way back wherever he goes.
In this way, after skipping the weirdness below, Zhang Ke identified a direction and roared away.
Even the Netherworld, where the gods are supposed to be entrenched, is quite difficult to find because of its vast area.
Zhang Ke was in the clouds, galloping for more than half an hour, and the terrain under his feet had already changed from continuous mountains to thin forests, and he didn't see a large settlement of tricks, let alone those gods whose strength was commendable.
Nearly a quarter of an hour had passed.
In the distance, in a muddy, half-dry river, a threatening cry was suddenly heard.
"Scared!"
As soon as Zhang Ke's gaze deflected, he saw a black light suddenly shoot up from the ground and go straight to the door in front of him.
The speed of its rapid travel, even with Zhang Ke's eyesight, was in a trance for a moment.
It wasn't until he approached his side that he could see clearly the body of this black light.
A body resembles the bewitching of a black cat.
Its torso, the size of a house, was scrawny and bony, its coarse and scattered hair was as messy as that of a middle-aged Mediterranean, its thin face was clinging to its skull, and its mouth was full of sharp teeth.
And there is a pair of black wings inserted in its back, and it is this pair of wings that gives the black cat the ability to soar and gallop.
I saw that after it hurriedly stirred its wings a few times, its wings closed at its side, and the whole cat shot towards Zhang Ke like an arrow.
His eyes were like dark night, staring at Zhang Ke's throat.
Then, he was slapped with a slap!
Even if it is allowed to come closer, it will be difficult to break through Zhang Ke's defenses with just a mouthful of fangs, but why bother?
Except for the initial rush was a little surprised, when I saw its figure clearly, the monster was no different from those little cats with teeth and claws in Zhang Ke's eyes, of course, this cat was a little too ugly, and people couldn't afford to cherish it at all.
Even if it only retains the size of an ordinary person, the limited power is far beyond what this cat trick can bear, and it only takes a slap to make the cat trick dizzy.
Then he grabbed it back into his arms, ready to break the cat's neck.
But before I could think of it, there was a sudden stinging pain in my hand like a mosquito bite.
While exerting force in his hand, he subconsciously flipped his palm, and then saw a red snake head with its mouth wide open, biting on the back of Zhang Ke's hand, trying to pierce the flesh, and from the black liquid that kept flowing out of the teeth, exuding a fishy black liquid, this snake seemed to contain severe poison!
But unfortunately, what it can't do in its own body is just a snake-like tail, which is even more fantastical.
With the sound of tooth-aching bones cracking, the black jade-like eyes quickly lost their lustre, and the strength of the cat's struggle in his hand also came to an abrupt end, except for the snake-like tail, which was still persevering, trying to bite a piece of flesh from his hand.
Pulling the strange snake tail away, Zhang Ke grabbed the dead cat and looked up and down for a while.
If memory serves, this thing should be the trick from "Hell's Hundred Tricks".
Evil spirit, also known as corpse soul, this kind of trickery should be the soul of returning home to be precise. In the ancient concept of deceitful gods, the day of a person's death is the day of return, and the soul will return home, and the soul will turn into evil at this time. Sometimes it is in the shape of a giant bird, and sometimes it resembles a black cat, and it will re-enter its original body to worship.
Therefore, there is a saying of "avoiding evil".
And the trick that presents the shape of a cat is such a hideous shape of a cat body, bird wings, and snake tail.
It's just that compared to the evil in the records of the Hundred Tricks, this is undoubtedly a long-standing existence in the Evil Group, and the soul has been completely cut off from the connection between life and death, and it has completely turned into a evil qi activation trick.
If it is placed in the mundane, it is also a folk taboo for the disaster.
But that's all there is to it.
After its remnants turned into a trivial help on the progress bar of the main quest, a flame incinerated the vicious cat corpse into ashes, and then Zhang Ke embarked on the journey again.
It's just that the journey is a little too boring.
Basically, all the way to the gallop, Zhang Ke has not encountered a few serious tricks, and even to the extent of cat tricks, they can be regarded as top-notch opponents.
Zhang Ke, who was a little helpless about this aimless search, could only lower the cloud head and find a few tricks with good strength and relatively sound sanity to ask, so that he knew the reason for the vacancy in the netherworld.
More than a decade ago, the Netherworld had never been so empty.
Although it is not to the point of being full of treacherous gods, every three or five hundred miles, there are always treacherous gods who can occupy the mountains and become kings entrenched here, gathering thousands of fierce spirits.
But since more than ten years ago, the number of passages from the Netherworld to the earth has gradually increased, and some gods who are unwilling to be lonely have taken people to the earth, and then after learning about the rich environment on the earth, the remaining gods have also moved to the earth with their families.
Now, in this netherworld, except for a few tricks who were once strong enough to occupy one side and call themselves kings and emperors, most of them have moved away, and even the rest of them have been sent by the gods on the earth to search for lonely souls and wild tricks for the kings in this netherworld.
“.”
Hearing this, Zhang Ke was a little speechless, but in the blink of an eye, he stared at the few tricks in the other party's mouth that had not yet left.
Then, under the guidance of the trembling soul, Zhang Ke spent half a day to reach the rumored kingdom.
Looking down from the sky, you can see a huge city that stretches for hundreds of miles prostrate on the ground, and the towering city walls are full of treacherous soldiers wearing heavy armor, holding halberds, and full of evil spirits.
And on some city towers, you can still see some hideous giant beasts entrenched, and their huge eyes scan the surroundings from time to time.
As for the interior of the city, it is no different from the previous Black Mountain Trick City, it is all full of traffic, a prosperous and prosperous scene, but because of the larger area, it looks a little more prosperous.
And next to this giant city, there are also some smaller treacherous cities, like the guards next to Wang Qi, crawling in various dangerous places, defending the giant city from all invading enemies!
And inside these small towns, it is far from such a prosperous scene.
Looking at it, in addition to the barracks, there are some camps where giant beasts are hidden, and compared to those guarding the city wall, the appearance of these giant beasts is more hideous and terrifying, and even has some characteristics of ancient beasts.
As Zhang Ke approached, the city guards below also noticed his presence.
Without him, in a dark sea of clouds, the appearance of a white cloud was too conspicuous.
After a moment's hesitation, the city guards began to warn, and at the same time, the giant beasts on the city walls also stood up, staring at the white cloud in the sky with malicious eyes.
"Woo~!"
With the sound of a loud horn, the big and small cities changed from silence to martial law in an instant!
At the same time, heavy and dense footsteps suddenly sounded at the city gates, accompanied by the sound of metal armor colliding, and large swaths of treacherous pawns flowed out of the city gates like poured ink.
Of course, for Zhang Ke, the most eye-catching thing is the center of the giant city, the building like a palace.
With the sound of frolicking and crying, a large number of strange babies poured out from various palaces, and in the next moment, an empress wearing a black dragon robe, wearing a crown on her head, and holding an exaggerated pregnant belly stepped on the body of the strange baby, and slowly appeared from the palace.
The face of the face of the Alluring City showed a distorted resentful color.
The bloodshot eyes crossed the barrier of the sea of clouds and stared at Zhang Ke, but at the moment when the four eyes met, that resentful gaze was replaced by greed: "It just so happens that there is a shortage of infant slaves these days, so you just broke into the door!"
Although he is not handsome, his body is very strong!
This vigorous yang energy, ah, this netherworld yin evil is difficult to cool the heart of this king! ”
The queen took a deep breath, her eyes eager and intoxicated, and said:
Heavenly Langjun, if you obediently tie your hands and arrest him, after this king gives birth to a child through your body, he can reward you with a hundred concubines, countless gold and silver, enough to make you have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life, and spend your days in peace, how about it? ”
Listening to the declaration below, Zhang Ke didn't react yet, but the trickster in his hand trembled, and there was a burst of sadness from the clouds.
"The king, the god, look, I have brought you to the place, you can let the villain go!"
It really didn't expect that among the trickster kings who divided the five directions, this one was chosen.
Mother.
It was a feud that the mother died, and she was resentful, and even among the many fierce souls, it was considered a vicious kind, especially this thing was irrational, and once it was provoked, it would never die!
But who would have thought that this person would still maintain his sanity as a tricky mother, and then blend into the netherworld with the help of his beautiful face.
The rest of the story doesn't need to be repeated in too much detail.
To put it simply, she is a tricky mother with a good face, with the help of countless benefactors, breeding countless tricky babies, and then dominating the netherworld.
After the reputation of the Trickster Mother officially spread in the Netherworld, it had become uncontrollable, and the other Trick Gods could only choose to ignore each other.
And the ungoverned mother manipulates the strange baby to catch those lonely souls and wild tricks and men on the ground in the netherworld, and after all the value is hollowed out, she will work for them as slaves and work.
No matter what the king thinks in his heart, the trickster is afraid to die anyway.
Now that I'm slipping away, there's still a little chance to escape, but if this one loses, it's estimated that they will have to be packed together.
"A poor man, too!"
Ignoring the burning and greedy gaze below, Zhang Ke sighed softly.
Then, I saw the wind and clouds turbulent, and the magnificent figure that was like a thoughtless shape smashed to the ground.
