Chen Mingzhi and Wucun went to the Hades Hall together.

"Lord Wucun, Lord Hades has instructed that only Mr. Chen himself is allowed to enter. The guards guarding the Hades Palace at the door stopped Chen Mingzhi and Wucun and said.

Wucun waved his hand unhappily, "Lord Ben already knew, but it's just because this guy doesn't know the way." ”

Wucun turned his head and left, and then sent a message to Chen Mingzhi: "Be careful, Lord Hades's temper is uncertain, but you shouldn't provoke him if you are clever." ”

After Wucun left, the guard said to Chen Mingzhi: "Mr. Chen, please, Lord Hades has been waiting for a long time." ”

Chen Mingzhi nodded, and walked into the Hades Hall with the open door.

This is Chen Mingzhi's first time in the Hades Palace, and there are also many dark blue lamps inlaid on the stone pillars in the Hades Palace.

In the innermost part of this Hades Hall is the throne of Hades.

In front of this throne was a large, long dining table.

The masked Hades did not sit on his throne, but at the table.

At this time, there are only wine glasses and a bottle of the best wine in the underworld.

The sword of Hades was placed on the table by him, and it was at his hand.

The moment he saw this sword, Chen Ming's heart was a little apprehensive, the Hades seemed to be trying to stand up.

"Mr. Chen, please be seated. Hades stretched out his hand to invite Chen Mingzhi to sit down, and his tone was lukewarm, so that Chen Mingzhi couldn't hear his attitude.

Chen Mingzhi first saluted the Hades, "See the Hades." ”

The Hades King nodded and said to Chen Mingzhi, "Mr. Chen doesn't have to be polite, sit down." ”

"Yes. Chen Mingzhi sat down at this time, and then took out the evil slaughter and put it on the table.

Chen Mingzhi thought that the Hades King didn't want to kill him, so Chen Mingzhi also wanted to be tougher.

A sneer erupted from under the mask of the Immortal.

"Mr. Chen, is this sword still good?" asked the Hades.

Chen Mingzhi arched his hand and said: "It's very easy to use, Chen also wants to thank Lord Hades for borrowing the sword." ”

Lord Hades waved his hand, "Mr. Chen is too polite, I am friends with Baixi Immortal Venerable, and his apprentice grandson is just like my apprentice grandson, so there is no need to be restrained." ”

Chen Mingzhi was very curious about what kind of existence Bai Xi was in the underworld back then, and his popularity seemed to be very good.

"Then I won't be restrained, in fact, I have a few questions I would like to ask Lord Hades. Chen Mingzhi said.

The Immortal nodded, "Of course I know you have some questions, but let's have a drink with me first." ”

Hades said, then manipulated the wine glass with his fingers to pour wine for Chen Mingzhi, and drank a glass with Chen Mingzhi.

Lord Hades lifted his mask slightly when he drank, and Chen Mingzhi saw that Lord Hades's mouth seemed to be ......

Then the Hades clapped his hands, and immediately there were many succubi, ** and brought up a plate of delicious food.

"Mr. Chen, please enjoy it and you're welcome. Hades laughed.

Chen Mingzhi didn't make a move, but said to the Hades: "I wonder if the Hades can solve the confusion now?"

"Mr. Chen, but it doesn't hurt to ask. ”

Chen Mingzhi paused and said, "I heard that Lord Hades once sat down with an immortal emperor in the immortal world and talked for a few days, Chen Mingzhi wants to know what the two of you are talking about?"

After Chen Mingzhi finished saying this, the Hades King looked at Chen Mingzhi, and the eyes behind the mask stared at him so directly, which made Chen Mingzhi's back start to tingle.

Lord Hades's sword suddenly came out of its sheath, and Chen Mingzhi only felt a chill on his neck, and the sword was already against his throat.

"This doesn't seem to be Mr. Chen's question. Hades said coldly.

The kind of deterrent power emanating from Hades's body suddenly made Chen Mingzhi's legs soften.

He has never seen such a deterrent in anyone, there is no existence, there is no Li Beibei, no one, only the king of Hades, the master of the underworld.

Chen Mingzhi feels like an ant facing the vast universe now.

The universe is big, big and boundless.

The strength of Hades, strong and unbounded.

This is Chen Mingzhi's heartfelt emotion.

But Chen Mingzhi still withstood this huge pressure and said: "This matter is very important to me, I hope I will ask Lord Hades to tell me." ”

The Hades looked at Chen Ming deeply, and then withdrew his deterrent.

"Actually, there is nothing to say about this matter, anyway, now that the immortal world has been destroyed, whether the immortal emperor exists or not is still a matter of two words. ”

"Before answering your question, I would like to ask you a question. Hades said.

"Lord Hades, please speak. ”

The Hades King crossed his hands, supported his chin, looked at Chen Mingzhi and said, "Why do you think there is a hell ring in the underworld?"

Chen Mingzhi said without thinking: "Is it because Lord Hades likes to watch it?"

Immortal shook his finger, "That's one of the reasons, I'm bored on this throne, but I'm not going to do it just for fun. ”

Chen Mingzhi lowered his head, touched his chin and thought again.

What is the other purpose?

Chen Mingzhi began to think about what the Hades King had just said, as well as the various things in the hell ring.

"I'm not going to do it just for fun. ”

This is what the Hades King just said, Chen Mingzhi thought, if this sentence is the Hades King's code of conduct, then a person needs to defeat ten people to advance to the first level, and the rules of the hell ring where people must be killed as much as possible may have another purpose.

So what is this purpose?

Chen Mingzhi thought of a variety of explanations.

Is it any good for Hades to have a dead person in the underworld?

Doing so will remove most of the dross, leaving a small number of elites.

But those who have the guts to participate in the ring of hell don't seem to be ordinary people, are they really dross?

Even if it is dross now, in time they will become masters of the Tao and become masters.

So what is the purpose of cannibalism?

Chen Mingzhi suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and he thought of a problem that any populous country was nervous about.

Population!

Based on his life in the underworld over the years, he already knows that the underworld is not boundless, and the living area of the underworld is not too large, and there are many areas that are just a netherworld.

And there are aborigines in the underworld, as well as the souls of the dead who remain here.

If there are immortals in the underworld, if some people are not completely eliminated, with their cultivation, the entire underworld will definitely be overcrowded.

If Hades is also worried about this, then his purpose is ......

"Population reduction?" Chen Mingzhi asked in shock but uncertainty.

"Hahahahaha, smart, smart!

Chen Mingzhi's shock at this time no longer cared about the Hades King's ridicule of him.

At the same time, Chen Mingzhi secretly admired the methods of the Hades King, and used the Huangquan Fruit as a temptation to let the people in the underworld participate in this hell ring, and naturally killed each other.

According to Chen Mingzhi's estimates, the death toll in each hell ring must be around 100,000.

In this way, the people of the underworld can not only cultivate hard, but also quietly achieve the goal of reducing the population.

In the eyes of others, this will only be the cruel rules of the hell ring and the fun of the Hades, and almost no one can imagine that this is to control the population of the underworld.

This trick of the Hades King is really wonderful!

"Could it be that the conversation between the Immortal Emperor and the Hades King has something to do with the true purpose of this hell ring?" Chen Mingzhi asked worriedly.

He felt that he was getting closer and closer to the truth, and that he seemed to be only one step away from that earth-shattering mystery.

The Hades showed a slight surprise at Chen Mingzhi's cleverness, and then he nodded slowly.

"Back then, one of the Immortal Emperors of the Immortal Realm came down to the Immortal Realm to chat with me, just to find out why the Underworld and the Immortal Realm have coexisted for so many years, but the Netherworld Qi is still abundant. ”

Chen Mingzhi frowned, just by virtue of Hades' words, he could make up a lot of things in his brain, a lot of terrifying things.

Chen Mingzhi didn't interrupt Hades' speech, it was Hades himself who stopped, he seemed to be organizing the language, thinking about how to explain a shocking secret for Chen Mingzhi.

"In fact, whether it is the fairy world, the human world, or the underworld, all resources are not unlimited. ”

"Immortal energy, spiritual energy, and netherworld energy, these three kinds of qi that exist in the Three Realms and can be used for cultivation are also the origin of the Three Realms. ”

"When the Three Realms were opened, the number of these three kinds of qi was very large, but it was also fixed, and no one could regenerate these three kinds of qi, and no one could erase every penny of these three qis, but they could take it for themselves. ”

"Immortals, immortal cultivators, we people in the underworld, all those who want power are possessing these three qis, and the number of these three qi in all walks of life is decreasing day by day as the number of cultivators increases. ”

"The existence of these three qi is not only for the sake of human cultivation, but also to maintain everything in a world, and if the number is insufficient to maintain this world, then the world will collapse, and there will be unexpected and terrifying results. ”

Listening to the words of the Hades King, Chen Mingzhi suddenly thought of the dry world, could it also be because of the depletion of spiritual power.

"There is only one way to bring the three qi in the monk's body back to heaven and earth, and that is to die. Whether you die in the fairy world, in the human world, or in the underworld, as long as you die, the three qi will return to their original position and be responsible for the operation of the world again. ”

"This situation is okay in the human world, the lifespan of immortal cultivators is limited, and wars often break out in the human world, with countless casualties. ”

"This is also good in the underworld, because I have demonic beasts in the underworld that threaten our survival. ”

"But since a long time ago, the underworld has been peaceful, and I have killed a lot of demonic beasts, leaving some behind, and I can kill some people from the underworld. ”

"From the fifth millennium of my consciousness, I realized that the population of the underworld must be reduced from time to time in order to ensure the longevity of the underworld, so I set up the Hell Ring. ”

Hades spoke slowly, without any emotion, but Chen Mingzhi sounded extremely thrilling.
