Chapter 73: The Underworld
When the Moon Watching Monk saw Han Sheng speaking for the Ghost King, he bowed his head and apologized to Ye Xuan. Ye Xuan was at a loss with a cold face and returned to the black umbrella.
The Xianxia Sect is the first sect of the righteous path recognized by the monks today, and seven years ago in Qianzhou, in order to prevent the three sects of the Demon Sect from going south, they once erected eleven war fortresses overnight, which shocked the other six righteous path sects.
The Golden Dome Temple was now suffering heavy losses and was in urgent need of support from the Xianxia Sect, and the Moon Viewing Monk was willing to obey any instructions from Han Sheng.
……
Three days later, they flew to Mount Fengdu.
Fengdu Mountain is full of ghosts running out of the underworld, and there are many fierce ghosts among them, but none of them can get close to these elite disciples of the Righteous Dao Sect.
They spent three days, but they didn't find any clues on this side of Fengdu Mountain.
Things are a little strange, it stands to reason that even if a group of powerful ghosts killed the ghost guards and forcibly opened the ghost gate, it has been more than half a year now, according to the laws of heaven and earth, the ghost door should have been closed a long time ago.
Why is the ghost gate open wider and wider now, as if the underworld is going to merge with the human world.
After discussing it together, the heads of the seven major sects thought that someone must be manipulating behind it, and the object of their suspicion was Cheng Xixiu, the head of the Phantom Sect.
Han Sheng came over with the team, just to find evidence that Cheng Xixiu manipulated the matter, but after a few busy days, he found nothing.
In the past few days, Han Sheng often looked at the entrance of the underworld suspended in mid-air from the top of Fengdu Mountain.
Looking at the entrance of the underworld from Fengdu Mountain, the entrance of the underworld is like a huge black full moon, suddenly appearing in this world, which makes people feel terrifying at a glance.
The huge black moon spewed out hordes of ghosts.
Han Sheng asked Ye Xuan carefully about the situation in the underworld, but when Ye Xuan came, the underworld was in chaos, and he didn't understand what was going on at all.
Han Sheng understood that since he couldn't find out the reason for the opening of the ghost gate in the human world, he could only enter the underworld to investigate.
Han Sheng summoned everyone, and he who had always been smiling lost his smile at this time: "Fellow Daoists, I have decided to enter the underworld to find out. This trip is really dangerous, and I can't guarantee that you will come back alive. If any Taoist friend wants to quit, he can return by himself. ”
A gust of cold wind blew, making everyone's hearts feel a little chilly.
Everyone couldn't help but look at the huge black full moon hanging in the air, compared to which everyone was so small.
Shu Yueji did not hesitate: "Xuantian Sword Sect Shu Yueji is willing to go." ”
Mu Hanyun immediately followed and said, "Xuantian Sword Sect Mu Hanyun is also willing. ”
Qingjing Sect Li Shan smiled: "Brother Han thinks that I can't wait for fear of death? ”
Wu Yangwei of the Demon Suppression Mansion followed and said, "Of course Wu Yangwei of the Demon Suppression Mansion wants to go. ”
The monk of Jinding Temple said: "The little monk is willing to go." "He made up his mind to protect the other seven with his own life.
Gu Qingyu of Shuiyue Nunnery whispered: "Gu Qingyu is unwilling to retreat. ”
Ethereal Palace Hua Fenglai only said two words: "I'll go." ”
Seeing that everyone was willing to break into the underworld with him, Han Sheng was moved in his heart and said with a smile: "Since all the Daoists agreed, then we will break into the underworld in three days." ”
Shu Yueji asked, "Why don't you go today?" ”
Han Sheng said with a smile: "Fairy Shu, don't worry, we have to make some preparations, and we must worship the god of the underworld before we travel, and bless us with a smooth trip." ”
The Xuantian Sword Sect never worshipped the gods, and Shu Yueji never thought of worshipping the gods before entering the underworld.
Remember, the unreliable god Nanqiao at home once said that the god of the underworld is stingy. She will take Mu Hanyun to say goodbye later, and when she arrives at the top of someone else's mountain, she will always have to say goodbye to the boss of the family.
The gods of the underworld have no followers on earth, and they never pay attention to the prayers of the living.
There is no statue of the god of the underworld, and I don't know what this god looks like.
After careful discussion, everyone could only determine from the classics of the major sects that the god of the underworld was a goddess.
For this reason, Han Sheng carved a wooden statue of a woman with a blurred face and a graceful figure.
Precious stones, desserts, fruits, and flowers were placed on the table.
Han Sheng led everyone to burn incense and prayed silently, hoping that the god of the underworld would bless everyone with a smooth trip, and if the underworld was unwilling to let the living enter the underworld, it would be good to directly close the ghost gate or tell everyone the reason.
As if sensing something, the ghosts of Fengdu Mountain gathered around one by one silently and bowed down to the wooden statue of the god of the underworld.
There was a sudden silence between heaven and earth, as if the wind had also stagnated.
There was a terrible aura coming from the wooden statue, which made everyone unbearable and wanted to kneel.
Han Sheng was overjoyed, which meant that the god of the underworld paid attention to himself and the others, and he might respond at any time.
But before everyone could kneel, the terrible aura of the wooden statue dissipated, and the gathered ghosts dispersed, apparently unwilling to respond to them.
Everyone was silent for a while, obviously a little frustrated, and Han Sheng cheered everyone on: "At least, the God of the Underworld has no objection to us entering the Underworld. ”
After worshipping the god of the underworld, they flew into the underworld.
As soon as they entered the underworld, they encountered a strong wind, which blew eastward, westward, and eastward, causing them to spin constantly.
Everyone had already expected this, and Hua Fenglai of the Ethereal Palace had taught everyone a simple formation, which integrated everyone's spiritual power into one, and let everyone gather together in this upside-down wind, so that they would not be blown away by the strong wind.
Overcoming the upside-down wind, the group finally landed on a hill.
At this time, everyone found that their strength had weakened by ninety percent.
The underworld is different from the laws of heaven and earth in the world, and the aura of the underworld is scarce.
The strength that these Jindan stage cultivators can exert now is similar to that of a low-level Qi refining stage cultivator, and many powerful spells cannot be used.
It was pitch black and you couldn't see anything.
Hua Feng of the Ethereal Palace stopped the others from performing the illumination technique, and he took a lot of Night Pearls from his savings bag and distributed them to everyone. The aura of the underworld is scarce, and if you can not use spells, you will not use spells, and you need to save spiritual power as much as possible.
Everyone took the night pearl to illuminate, only to find that many ghosts were secretly observing them in the dark.
The ghosts of the underworld found a living person, and they all felt that it was very rare.
Shu Yuechen touched her Baiyun Sword, and she reminded herself not to be impulsive.
There are so many ghosts in the underworld, if she starts to do it, she won't be able to get down to business.
The group continued to walk, and after walking a few steps, suddenly a thick blue-black fog hit.
This thick fog came so quickly that everyone had no time to dodge, and they were all caught up in it.
In the blue-black fog, the small array under the cloth of the eight people suddenly cracked.
Shu Yuechen couldn't see others, couldn't hear others, and couldn't feel others, as if he was the only one left in the world.
Ye Xuan came out of the black umbrella that he possessed, stood beside Shu Yueji and exclaimed: "This is an uncertain fog, just like the previous upside-down wind, it is extremely rare in the underworld, and I don't know how long I can be trapped when I encounter it." How did we meet it? ”
