Chapter Seventy-Five: The Soul of the World
"This old eunuch, but it starts with the time when the princess was in charge. Shattered Moon led Chi Tang and Han Li cautiously through a small dark ravine, and the words in their mouths did not pause at all. "Before the birth of the Rift Abyss Ghost Country, thousands of years later, the souls absorbed by the power of Xuanjing accumulated more and more here, but if one day the number of souls accumulated exceeds the limit of Xuanjing's capacity, then the dead spirits will emerge from here and become the new masters of the world, at that time, the day will fall into the eternal night, and the world will turn into the dead world, and whether it is a human or a demon, after all, they are all living beings, I believe that for living beings, this is definitely not good news. Thankfully, before reaching the limit, Princess Yongxing and General Zhu Yue had already become the masters of this land, and they inherited the will of the gods and exercised the mission of calming the soul and soothing the soul. The so-called requiem soothing the soul is to let these unfallen reincarnated wandering souls have a home that gradually disappears and rests in eternal silence. ”
This was a supplement to the duties of the Split Abyss King, and although Chi Tang felt that Broken Moon's remarks were a bit off the previous topic, he still nodded very seriously, indicating that he was listening attentively.
"Oh, yes, forgive somebody's ramblings, but somebody has to state it first, and then maybe it's more logical to talk about the old gelding. Well, to get back to the point, in the process of the princess's requiem, she found a different soul, that is an unwilling to disappear, a soul with a strong mind, and even when in contact with the ghost Xuanjing, it can shine with dazzling brilliance, which seems to be more than the stars in the sky, it seems so unusual, so, the princess became curious, and used the power of Xuanjing to restore this soul to the appearance before her death, her plan is to make this extraordinary soul her subordinate, after all, the work of requiem is too large, she needs a sufficient number of assistants, and these assistants are also selected from those extraordinary souls。 Hehe, someone said earlier that after the contact between Captain Wen and Xuanjing, a cluster of figures appeared on that cloud, right? Yes, the Rift Abyss Ghost Kingdom was not just the princess and General Zhu Yue at that time, in fact, most of the people in the Han Empire and the pro-queue achieved a completely different resurrection in this way, which was due to Captain Wen's state of mind. Although they were not endowed with divine power like the princess and Zhu Yue, after all, they were somewhat affected, so they became vassals of this Rift Abyss Ghost Country, but last night, they didn't meet with adults. ”
Chi Tang was not surprised by this, not to mention the shadowy ghost soldiers and honor guards accompanying him last night, he never thought that in such a majestic city, there were only a few Rift Abyss King and the four ghost guards of the Protector Country, but he still couldn't help but ask curiously: "So, I don't know how many vassals there are in the entire Rift Abyss Country?"
Broken Moon did not hide it: "Oh, yes, let the adults be surprised when they say it, the souls with the strongest minds should be regarded as the officials of the ghost country, and the number of such spirits is about five hundred, and the strong souls who can be restored by the power of Xuanjing and are willing to be driven by the King of the Rift Abyss are all used as the army of the ghost country, and the number is now around 100,000, and these numbers will increase with time." ”
There were actually 100,000 troops in the Rift Abyss Country? Rao is Chi Tang had some preparations in advance, and at this time, he couldn't help but feel a great sense of surprise, and a trace of surprise flashed across Han Li's usually calm face.
"Oh, yes, it's easy to distinguish between the two, those souls with the strongest minds look like the King of the Rift Abyss, as if they are flesh and blood, and if you don't tell you, you can't tell that they are actually spirits; But when a war starts, these armies are very formidable. ”
Of course it's terrible, Chi Tang just needs to think about the appearance of this 100,000 phantom army on the battlefield, normal mortals against the enemy, knives and axes can't be chopped, there is no way to start, they can only be tied up, even if they are good at fighting demons who are good at spells, the ghost army phantom is ethereal, and it is impossible to prevent it, but I am afraid that it will also be devastating. By the way, didn't Lingfeng say that at the beginning of the establishment of the Rift Abyss Ghost Country, the Demon of Fly Mountain had launched a campaign against the Ghost Country? However, Fly Mountain was unable to help the Ghost Country in the end, and I think this is why.
Unexpectedly, after hearing Chi Tang's question, Broken Moon laughed and shook her head: "There has indeed been such a battle, but it is not what adults think." At that time, not long after the establishment of the ghost country, there were only thousands of gnosis souls in the realm, and even the army of the ghost country had not been formed. It was the princess who took our tribe to fight with them before the Lingbi hurricane, and Fly Mountain did not do its best, and besides, our tribe was not weak, and under the first battle, neither side had the upper hand. Let someone think about it, ah, yes, the main general who came to attack at that time was that Qianlisheng, he was fine, and he soon felt that as long as there was a ghost spirit Xuanjing in the ghost country, then he would definitely not be able to win, so he signed a peace treaty with us, and the two worlds lived together in the world, and they would never offend each other again. ”
"Don't offend each other again, even if you sit back and watch the demons grow bigger and want to devour the human world? The King of the Rift Abyss has also been harmed by the human body and the Fly Mountain, but is he going to stand by and watch it?" Chi Tang was a little dissatisfied, now that the Ghost Country already has such a powerful force, why don't you take the lead in launching an expedition against the Fly Mountain, and let the demon's ambition plan be stillborn?
"Oh, yes, please believe that whether it is Princess Yongxing, Lord Rift Abyss, or Master Yu, they have no idea of appeasing the demons of Fly Mountain, but they all know their lack of strength, so signing this peace agreement with Fly Mountain can be regarded as a long-term plan. ”
"There are only 80,000 people in Fly Mountain, but your country's military strength is already 100,000 people, and there is only one of the three juns in Fly Mountain, and the rest of the Rudan Demon Queen and the Four Spirits are just Er'er, I don't believe that with the ability of the Rift Abyss King and the Four Great Powers to defend them, they will not be able to compete with them, once they fight, will they not be sure to win?" Chi Tang has a tough tone, but he is not arrogant, even if he is in Chang'an, when his art industry is not yet complete, he is already at ease in the face of demons like the four spirits of Fly Mountain, but now he has fought with one of the four ghost guards, according to his judgment, the cultivation of the four ghost guards is really better than the four spirits of Fly Mountain, and Zhu Yue is now the lord of the Rift Abyss, and he is above the four ghost guards, he should not be under Qianlisheng, so compared to this, there is no reason for the ghost country to lose to Fly Mountain, and this remark is not nonsense.
Shattered Moon smiled and shook her head again, her big head shaking very funny: "Oh yes, it's not as simple as Lord Raven thinks. In fact...... The power of the Rift Abyss Country only exists in the territory of the Rift Abyss Country, once it is far away from the range covered by the power of the Soul Crystal, just the scorching sun during the day can make the soul disappear, what kind of battle is there to talk about?"
Chi Tang was silent, as soon as the Broken Moon mentioned the Soul Crystal, he had already reacted, and he was slightly disappointed in his heart, but he became more and more curious about the Soul Crystal.
"So, as long as we are entrenched in this land, the demons of Fly Mountain will have nothing to do with us, but on the other hand, we are also beyond their reach, and the Lord of the Rift Abyss has long been clear about this, but your Excellency should not be disappointed, the King of the Rift Abyss is helping the human world in his own way, isn't it? Otherwise, why would Lord Divine Wolf be in the water? Otherwise, how could the two adults be here?"
Broken Moon looked at Chi Tang's gradually relieved expression with a smile, and also noticed that Han Li was still a little dazed, and suddenly owed again: "Oh, yes, yes, someone was careless, and he said it was far away, or the original topic, that old gelding." The princess has the heart to make him the subordinate, he should be the first subordinate of the Rift Abyss Nation to select from the soul. When he showed his true face, he was really not outstanding at all, and the difference between him and his spirit was simply heaven and earth. Dark skin, short stature, small eyes, and most importantly, ...... He doesn't have the beard of an adult man, and by the way, when the soul appears in the human body, it takes the appearance of the best time of his physical condition, that is, it is basically the appearance of the soul when he is in the prime of life, not the image of him when he dies. Supposedly, men in their prime should have at least beards, but he didn't, so one thought this little man who wasn't amazing looked weird at the time. ”
"A castrated man doesn't grow a beard, is he the old castration?" Chi Tang immediately asked, when it came to the topic of beards, he and Han Li couldn't help but touch them under their chins, fortunately, although the two of them did not have beards, the subtle touch of the stubble under the jaw still saved them from embarrassment.
Broken Moon didn't care about Chi Tang and Han Li's actions: "Yes, it's him, but at that time, none of us, including the princess and General Zhu Yue, would have known that he actually started a scheming plan as soon as he appeared." He is surprisingly deferential, and many etiquettes are even found in the deep palace of the Han Empire, which is undoubtedly easier to win the favor of Princess Yongxing from the Han Empire, he said that he was a eunuch of the Han family who lived in the grassland outside the Saiwai, and was killed by the hateful Huns, and he cherished the feelings of his homeland, and he still has a grudge, which makes Princess Yongxing feel sympathy for the same disease, and see that he is capable, and many ghost country affairs are heard at the beginning, he can offer strange and good strategies, which can be described as a rare talent, so he was soon entrusted with important tasks, including selecting people with strong ideas from many souls, thinking that it was the duty of the ghost country officials。 Ah, what a man of disguise, and it was not until soon after the princess left that we found the clues of his misdeeds, and it was these misdeeds that revealed his true colors. To say, he is indeed a very powerful person, and he actually took advantage of the opportunity to select ghost officials to figure out a set of methods for tempering the soul, called the art of refining the soul, which is different from the ghost country by virtue of the crystallization of the human body, this is an evil spell that combines the arrogant soul full of hatred for the world with the body he created, for this kind of arrogant soul, we call it the evil soul, and it is also the main soul of the rift country to pacify and channel, but he tries his best to pick these evil souls to start, retain the hatred of these evil souls for the human world, and strengthen their ghost power with the art of soul refining, and become a fierce ghost and evil spirit who only knows how to kill evil。 Unconsciously, more than 100 evil spirits and ghosts were cultivated, and finally one day, the ghosts began to attack someone's tribe regardless of the attraction of the breath of the living beings. Someone said that our tribe is not weak, they are all demon spirits who have cultivated for more than a thousand years, and this attack was blamed without danger, and it was finally deduced that he was the source of the scourge. At that time, he was already in charge of Lord Zhu Yue, the king of the rift abyss, he was not as merciful as the princess, and immediately caught him, under the small means of coercion of the king of the rift abyss, we all learned the truth--- he was the most hostile and lonely soul who hated the world, he had made up his mind to destroy the world from the beginning, and all kinds of disguises in the ghost country were just his hypocrisy and grievances before he wanted to carry out the plot, hehe, is that the word? Later, he said his real name, and someone didn't know about this person, but the King of the Rift Abyss suddenly became angry, as if this person was already famous, and then the King of the Rift made a decision and decided to use the fastest way to completely wipe out this person's soul. By the way, the title of the old eunuch was the first to be mentioned by the King of the Rift at that time, and we can be regarded as following the statement of the Lord of the Rift King. It's a pity that this old gelding has a far-reaching plan, he seems to have expected the day when he will be exposed, just when the King of the Rift Abyss is about to be executed, he actually transforms, with scattered white hair, a pair of deep and dark eyes like skeletons, and even the harrier eagle he has been carrying suddenly became three heads. Later, we learned that the first thing he tempered was his soul, and he prepared this body, and before we could react, he escaped from the Rift Ghost Country. ”
"Escaping so lightly?" Chi Tang couldn't believe it.
"Oh, yes, of course, it's not as simple as it sounds, it's just that the timing is very unfortunate, it was dawn, most of the souls of the Rift Abyss Kingdom were hidden at this time, but his evil soul and ghost body was not afraid of the light of the morning that had penetrated into the Radiant Sand City, which caught the Rift King and many ghost armies off guard. In fact, our tribe also carried out a thousand-mile pursuit during the day, and unfortunately, the demon spirits in the tribe were not his opponents. This should be regarded as the biggest failure in the five hundred years since the founding of the Rift Abyss Country. It wasn't until many years later that we learned from Master Yu that in the distant Zhongzhou, a wicked soul who hated the world chose the lair of the nine-headed demon snake as a place to stand, and used the art of soul refining to absorb a large number of fierce spirits who died in vain in the war, and founded the Blood Spring Ghost Clan, and this evil soul called himself the prime minister of the ghost clan, and used the three-headed harrier eagle beside him as a secret agent to control the entire ghost clan. So, we know that the ghost is him, and he is the ghost. ”
The Blood Spring Ghost Clan was actually founded by a traitor from the Rift Abyss Ghost Country, Chi Tang was stunned again, and after combing through his mind for a long time, he suddenly remembered something: "Does the King of the Rift Abyss know the previous name of this ghost? Do you still call him an old eunuch?"
"Oh yes, of course I remember, his name is as weird as he looks, what's it called...... BOC said. ”
