Volume 3 The Demon Emperor Passes Away and the Hades King Bell Rings Chapter 165 The Road is Empty
The underworld, in charge of the cycle of life and death, rises and falls under the earth, with the nine shadows as the boundary, is one of the three worlds of gods and demons, and is extremely mysterious.
And the Hades Bell is a thing of the underworld, rumored to be the Holy Soldier of the Hades, used to guard the vast land of Shenzhou.
As one of the mysterious three realms, it is difficult for even people in the underworld to see it on weekdays, let alone this holy artifact, and people only know about the Hades Bell by hearing various legends.
It is said that on this bell, there is an engraved avenue pattern, describing the three thousand avenues, and at the same time, there is also a cycle of life and death sealed in it, which is used to transcend the dead spirits of all walks of life. There is even a legend that the Hades Emperor has already been feathered and ascended to immortality, and the Hades Bell has also turned into an immortal weapon, as for the facts, no one knows.
However, there is one thing that has become the consensus of people: in the world, as long as the emperor dies, the bell of Hades will ring to send him to the end.
In this world, there are countless cultivators, but not many can finally preach the Tao, you must know that every enlightened person has at least stepped into the emperor realm, and has the strength to be crowned emperor, such a character falls, and heaven and earth pity him.
According to legend, there was a purple stone in the demon world 100,000 years ago, which lasted forever between heaven and earth, swallowed the essence of the sun and the moon, absorbed the vitality, and gradually began to have its own spiritual wisdom.
In the demon world, some old demons at the level of living fossils still remember the scene when the demon emperor became enlightened, it was a hazy night, a purple light pierced the sky, and purple qi rose in all directions, and then for three whole days, the demon world was shaped like day, and various visions were born, and finally at dawn, the demon emperor descended on this piece of heaven and earth.
This had a huge impact on the demon clan at that time, you must know that the demon clan 100,000 years ago was turbulent, civil strife, and was in a state of division for a long time, and the appearance of the demon emperor completely quelled the turmoil and unified the demon world, and at the same time shocked all parts of Shenzhou and protected the demon world from oppression for 100,000 years.
But such an amazing character still fell, and what was left to future generations was just a legend.
When the death knell sounded, an emperor passed away like this, and the strong man who once overlooked the nine heavens and ten earths finally returned to dust and dust, and it ended.
The bell rang all over the land of Shenzhou, causing a sensation in many people, and even the gods and demons in the thirty-three heavens had a movement, trying to figure out who the Great Emperor had fallen?
"It's been 100,000 years, and it's still passed away after all...... Duan Tianling was very unwilling, the black wind took away his creation, and the loss was too great.
Li Yunchen's heart also couldn't be calm, how many people in the world could be stronger than the Demon Emperor, and such a world-strong person dissipated in front of his eyes like this, what were the countless beings in the world, and countless cultivators?
"Whew!"
The black wind blew, and the emperor was completely buried by the gray air, and as the bell of the Hades King was gone, the Demon Emperor Wraith was also taken away.
After devouring the Demon Emperor, the black wind has completely turned into a human form, no longer the phantom of the past, those eyes are as black as ink, shooting out black light, and the evil aura emitted by the black beads in the body makes people shudder.
I don't know if I was afraid of the terrifying existence in the forest that had just been extinguished, or if I was in a hurry to digest the Demon Emperor, after glancing at Li Yunchen and Duan Tianling, the black wind turned into black light and left, and did not do anything to them.
Duan Tianling secretly gritted his teeth, he did everything he could, but he didn't expect to make a wedding dress for others, but he didn't catch up, he knew Heifeng's strength very well, and now that he devoured the Demon Emperor, he was not an opponent, although he was unwilling, he could only give up.
"He's so tenacious, he's not dead even when he's beaten to ashes. Li Yunchen recalled the scene of the battle between the Black Wind and the Demon Emperor, if it was someone else, there was absolutely no possibility of survival.
"It seems that the demon world is about to usher in a catastrophe. Duan Tianling looked at the black wind in the distance and sighed: "Forget it, the opening time of the ancient road is limited, since the Demon Emperor has passed away, let's leave quickly." ”
"Wait. Li Yunchen probed the surroundings with the eyes of gods and demons, looking for the location of the demon venerable, he couldn't ignore it, now the demon clan is turbulent and in danger, if the demon venerable is left here, maybe one day it will be swallowed by the black wind.
The red and blue light swept over, and the eyes of the gods and demons cracked the terrain pattern, and in the end, the remnant soul of the demon venerable was found, and Li Yunchen took out the purple gold gourd and put it in.
After that, Li Yunchen didn't stay any longer, and after looking at the devastated demon clan's territory, he stepped into the ancient road with Duan Tianling.
Of course, as trophies, the Demon Bell and the Heavenly Demon Ancient Sword were also taken away, and after the Demon Emperor died, the two holy soldiers had no owner, so they naturally fell into their pockets.
Although Duan Tianling failed to win the Emperor Realm Creation, a Heavenly Demon Ancient Sword could be regarded as compensation, and as for Li Yunchen, he even got a demon bell for nothing, and he was so happy in his heart.
"Buzz!"
After entering the ancient road, Duan Tianling waved the Heavenly Demon Ancient Sword without hesitation and cut off the road.
The ancient path trembled with a splash of silver light, and then it retreated one by one, and finally disappeared into the sky. And the territory of the demon clan has also returned to dead silence again, and the twilight is gloomy.
......
The silver ancient road continued to spread, I don't know where it extended, as if immersed in eternal silence, Li Yunchen walked on it, and there was a feeling of returning to the dark avenue in the Silent Forest.
It was a road with no end in sight, no one knew how long, and there was not a shimmer of light on the way except for a faint silver glow.
Perhaps it was because they had been in the dark for a long time, and both of them had forgotten the passage of time, and since they stepped into the ancient road, they kept moving forward step by step, and they didn't know how long it had passed.
"Brother Duan, can this road really lead to the Ancient Domain?" Li Yunchen was a little tired, and his speed slowed down.
"It shouldn't be wrong, my Death Lin Wheel induction is getting stronger and stronger, this is the instinctive reaction of the Death Lin artifact. Duan Tianling also entered the ancient road for the first time, and he couldn't give a definite answer.
Li Yunchen shook his head helplessly, and could only walk forward. During this period, he had exhausted his strength many times, and if it weren't for Duan Tianling's continuous supply of Bao Dan Divine Medicine, he would almost have despaired.
"I don't think I can go back for a year and a half. Li Yunchen smiled bitterly, this road is too long, and he feels that he will have to walk for several years just to go back and forth.
"Not necessarily, this ancient road is a little strange, I always feel that as I go deeper, the road is gradually weakening, maybe time is the same here, passing slowly, or even stopping. Duan Tianling thought for a long time and made this astonishing inference.
After hearing this, Li Yunchen began to operate his mana, but unexpectedly found that his Taoism had faded, and his divine consciousness and soul power were not as good as before.
"Sure enough, there is something strange, the Great Dao is indeed weakening, is this really different from the outside world, including time?" Li Yunchen recalled that he had sat under the ancient Bodhi tree in the Three Thousand Worlds for three thousand years, but compared to the outside world, it was only a year, maybe this ancient road also had this strange power.
"Anyway, let's keep going, those people went in before us, and we haven't met them yet, so it means that there is still a road ahead. Duan Tianling said to himself.
"For the sake of the Heavenly Realm, for the secret of alchemy, fight!" Li Yunchen was also full of energy, and his slower pace accelerated again, flying towards the end of the ancient road.
It's been a long run again, I don't know how long it takes, even Duan Tianling can't stand it, the end of the ancient road is still not visible, if it weren't for the death wheel induction getting stronger little by little, even he would lose confidence.
At the same time, the power of the Great Dao was weakening sharply, and the Dao Practices of the two were also retreating, if it was about mana, they might not even be as good as the Virtuous Tribulation Cultivators.
"Ahh
The silence of the ancient road suddenly came from a scream, breaking the long-term silence, and the end that had been invisible also had a glimmer of light, but it was quickly annihilated.
The look of fatigue in Li Yunchen and Duan Tianling's eyes disappeared instantly, replaced by intense excitement, they had walked for so long, and finally saw hope.
"That light just now is definitely the end of the ancient road!" Duan Tianling was very sure, because when the light appeared just now, the golden wheel's induction reached the strongest point.
"It seems that those people have also arrived, and the screams must have been made by them. Li Yunchen inferred.
Both of them quickened their pace, heading towards the place where the light appeared, although the path was suppressed, but the speed was not affected, and it didn't take long for it to come to an end.
At this moment, the Great Dao disappeared completely, the Dao was empty, and the cultivation of Li Yunchen and Duan Tianling was exploited, just like mortals.
In front of them, there was a huge black hole, which seemed to evolve from chaos, and the black flames inside were tumbling, but there was no trace of temperature, on the contrary, it gave people a cold and piercing feeling.
Except for the two of them, the rest of them were also stagnant in front of the black hole, because they had learned from the past, so no one dared to step forward again.
"This is the end of the ancient road, no wonder the vast and invisible...... Li Yunchen was stunned, he felt that the disappearance of the avenue and the slowdown of time were very likely to be related to this black hole.
Duan Tianling sneered at the group of people and said, "Everyone, there is the Ancient Domain ahead, why don't you go in and stop here?"
In the face of cynicism, this group of people all cast cold eyes at Duan Tianling.
"The ancient road was opened by you, and we are not unreasonable people, so of course the qualification to be the first to enter must be given to you. The person from the Sun God Palace said with a straight face.
The other party's hypocrisy made Duan Tianling feel funny in his heart, he had already seen through the minds of these people with his dead eyes, this black hole was full of dark power, and the chaotic power was terrifying, there were already two people who had tested the water before, but they were turned into nothingness in an instant, all these people just wanted to treat him as a test subject.
"In that case, thank you in advance. Duan Tianling did not refuse, but showed a cruel smile, and then turned around and said, "Brother Yunchen, the ancient road has come to an end, you go in first." ”
Li Yunchen showed a difficult face, he felt the aura of danger from the depths of the black hole, not to mention that the end of the ancient road was empty, and his cultivation was eliminated, and most of the people who went in would be hateful.
"Don't worry, you have the Death Lin artifact in your hand, and you'll be fine. When Li Yunchen hesitated, Duan Tianling secretly transmitted the voice again.
He doesn't want to test the waters with me, right? Li Yunchen recalled what Al had said to him, and a chill felt behind him.
However, despite his suspicions, Li Yunchen still took out the chain of death and slowly went deeper into the black hole, if there was a change, he would quickly escape.
The golden light in the golden eye flowed, and the black hole chaotic flames were intertwined, and the dark power of the two was mutually exclusive, and because of this, Li Yunchen was not injured.
This Death Lin Artifact is indeed able to resist the chaotic power of the black hole! Li Yunchen was overjoyed, but he didn't speed up, and still moved forward cautiously.
The golden light emitted by the Dead Lin Chain was like an enchantment, the black flames could not invade, it was blocked, Li Yunchen was unimpeded, and finally disappeared into the depths of the black hole, drowning in chaotic gas.
"Got in?"
Seeing that there was nothing unusual, a woman hurriedly followed and rushed into the black hole.
"Ah......h
As soon as the rest of the people were moved, a scream came again, and the woman was instantly turned to ashes by the black flames, and her body and mind were destroyed.
"What's going on?" everyone was horrified and stopped again.
"It's this kind of artifact that is the ghost!" a man of all things exclaimed as he pointed at the golden wheel on Duan Tianling's chest, and he could see the problem from the golden light just now.
These people all focused their eyes on the Death Wheel and revealed a fierce light, and from there, they felt an aura similar to that of the Death Lin Chain.
"Rob!" one person made the first move, wanting to snatch the death artifact.
Seeing this, the others also rushed forward, they had just let Li Yunchen go, which made them regret a lot, if they let Duan Tianling escape again, then they would really have to stay here forever.
"It's finally revealed. Duan Tianling sneered and said, "I tried to open up the ancient road and didn't allow others to step into it, so even if you don't do it, I will personally eradicate you!"
"Arrogant! there are so many of us who can't beat you?" a man looked indifferent.
"Boom!"
Duan Tianling didn't talk nonsense, a punch flew out, and the man wanted to fight with a technique, but the Dao Xing was cut off, and the technique could not be used at all, and he was directly knocked away by a punch, and he was submerged into the black hole and turned into ashes.
The rest of the people were terrified, and only then did they realize that the Dao here had become empty, and no matter how high their cultivation was, they were useless here, just like mortals.
"Don't panic, everyone, there is no way here, he can't use mana, let's shoot together and kill him!"
Everyone looked at each other, and then attacked Duan Tianling at the same time.
However, when they really fought each other, they realized that the idea just now was too naïve, Duan Tianling was a divine body, and the strength of his physical body was comparable to that of a golden body, and in the case of not being able to use mana, none of them were his opponents.
"Click!"
A treasure mirror flew out, but the spiritual power could not be exerted, and it was smashed into pieces by Duan Tianling's fist.
The divine body is too powerful, this group of people felt fear, the morale just now was completely gone, there was no Taoism, just the physical touch, and a hundred people were not opponents.
"If no one can escape, let's stay!" Duan Tianling was like a black light, his fist was like a sharp sword, piercing this group of people one by one, but it was a pity that their cultivation could not be used, and in the end they could only be killed by the divine body.
In just a few seconds, everyone died, and the cold corpses sank into the eternal silence of darkness.
Duan Tianling's face was like water, his expression was gloomy and scary, and after solving his worries, he urged the Death Wheel to move towards the depths of the black hole, and slowly disappeared.
