Chapter 456: Netherworld
Su Ji's soul wandered between heaven and earth, not knowing where to go.
Until the sudden darkness came, his floating figure was sucked into the whirlpool underground, and he couldn't help himself, and could only watch himself fall into the abyss.
The wind blew all over his body, and he didn't feel a trace of pain, no breath, no heartbeat, not even an invisible wind could pass directly through his body, without any hindrance. Everything about Su-Ji is reduced to nothingness, and he realizes that he no longer belongs to the original world.
After some time, he woke up from the strange darkness, surrounded by dampness and haze. Is this dark place the final destination of a life?
Is this the end of this life?
Su Ji didn't blink an eye, his heart was full of regret and concern, and some people would be sad and sad for themselves, and there were many reasons to live. But even if he is unwilling, what can he do now?
Crash!
A crisp voice rang out.
Since coming to this strange darkness, Su Ji found that he had regained his senses before his death, and found that someone had a finger-thick bronze chain around his neck.
Crash!
The chain was tugged, and Su Ji's neck was pulled by the chain, and he got up from the ground and walked forward. When he looked up, he saw two unfamiliar backs walking in front. One is a minotaur and the other is a horseman. Although these two did not report their names, Su Ji must have been the "bull head" and "horse face" of the legendary ghost pawn.
Su Ji walked up to Ma Mian and asked, "May I ask this brother, this is the Netherworld?"
Ma Mian didn't say a word.
Su Ji ran to the bull head again and asked, "Hey, what do you have to do with the Bull Demon King?"
The bull head walked forward on his own, not paying any attention to what he said.
Su Ji took a closer look and found that the "bull head" and "horse head" of these two ghost pawns did not grow on their necks, but a thick cow and horse headdress on the outside of their heads, and the structure of their bodies was no different from that of ordinary mortals. Su Ji was curious about what they would look like when they took off their headdresses.
"You guys have something to say!" Su Ji raised his voice and said, "Are the ghost pawns all dumb?
No matter how Su Ji asked, Niu Tou and Ma Mian were silent, refusing to say a word from beginning to end.
Su Ji wanted to tear the chains around his neck and leave them. The thin chain didn't look strong at all, as if it would break with a slight pull. But as long as the two ghost pawns held the chains in their hands, no matter how hard Su Ji tried, they couldn't break free. Su Ji found that he was in the state of the Yuan Spirit, and he didn't seem to be able to use any mana.
In desperation, Su Ji could only let the two ghost pawns lead him, silently walking into a dark cave with no end in sight, and at intervals he could see several ghost pawns dressed in the same costume, using the same chains to lead different souls.
Su Ji felt that his mind was becoming less and less clear, and he began to forget many things, and his memory was slowly eroding.
At this moment, suddenly a ghost hit him from behind, and Su Ji looked back and saw that it was actually the Hundred Eyes Demon Lord!
The Hundred Eyes Demon Lord was also led by two ghost pawns with a long chain.
"Hey, why don't you ......?"
Before Su Ji could finish speaking, the Hundred Eyes Demon Lord glared at him, with a hint of resentment in his eyes.
Su Ji's eyes rolled, and he suddenly realized, presumably because Lu Jian Daojun had cast a bowel-breaking spell on the Hundred Eyes Demon Lord, so once he died, the Hundred Eyes Demon Lord would also die at the same time.
"Dude, I'm sorry. Su Ji walked over and said.
The Hundred Eyes Demon Monarch had a bitter look on his face, lowered his head and sighed, waved his hand and said, "Forget it, death is dead." I can't blame you for this, if you hadn't interceded in front of Lu Zhuan Daojun, I might have come here to report a long time ago. But it's up to you...... What a terrible death......"
As he spoke, the Hundred Eyes Demon Lord stared at Su Ji's bloody chest, his brows twisted into a pimple.
Su Ji looked down at himself, only to see a transparent hole the size of a bowl in his chest. It was a big hole left by the arm of Erlang God Yang Jian, and although the hole was no longer bleeding, it still looked shocking. Su Ji recalled that he was pretending to be a ghost in the Qingling Temple of Chaoge, and now he has really become a ghost.
Looking around, Su Ji noticed that the souls he encountered along the way seemed to remain the same as at the last moment before he died. Many of the dead souls were mutilated to varying degrees, some were bleeding from seven holes, some were holding their heads in both hands, and some were missing a large piece of flesh from their waists, as if they had been bitten to death by a fierce beast.
Led by the ghosts, the ghosts lined up in a long line and walked in an orderly manner towards a black arch. Su Ji felt that it was the entrance to the Netherworld.
At this time, the ghost pawns who were pulling Su Ji and the Hundred Eyes Demon Lord each loosened the iron chains in their hands and motioned for the two of them to cross the arch on their own.
The Hundred Eyes Demon Lord pointed to the arch in front of him and said to Su Ji: "After walking through that ghost gate, there is Huangquan Road in front, once you walk on that road of no return, you will never be able to turn back." ”
Su Ji felt that the Hundred Eyes Demon Lord seemed to know a lot about this place, and asked curiously, "Isn't it the first time you have died, how do you know so much?"
The Hundred Eyes Demon Lord replied as he walked, "I heard from a fellow Daoist. ”
A glimmer of light flashed in Su Ji's eyes, and he hurriedly asked, "That Taoist friend of yours came back to the world from the underworld to tell you?"
The Hundred Eyes Demon Lord shook his head and said, "No one can return to the human world from the Netherworld, and my friend just listened to others. ”
Su Ji thought for a while and muttered, "If no one can return to the human world from the underworld. How did the mortal beings know about the existence of the Netherworld? How could they know what the Huangquan Road was like? How could they say that the details here were exactly right? Could it be that the king of Hades himself came to the world to say it?"
The Hundred Eyes Demon Lord was slightly stunned, and suddenly felt that what he said was very reasonable, and asked in a low voice, "Don't you still want to return to the yang world in your heart?"
Su Ji said in a low voice: "Of course I want to." You have been cultivating for hundreds of years to cultivate into a human form, don't you want to continue to live happily in the world?"
The Hundred Eyes Demon Lord muttered, "I think so, but no matter how strong a monk's mana is during his lifetime, once his soul is separated from his body, he is no different from an ordinary mortal, and it is impossible to do anything more." ”
As soon as the words fell, there was a rush of footsteps behind the two!
Su Ji and the Hundred Eyes Demon Lord subconsciously flashed to the side, only to see a ghost shadow passing by with a strong wind, and quickly rushed towards the ghost gate.
Immediately afterwards, the two ghosts also strode after them, only to hear the ghost figure turn around and laugh: "Hey, hey, hahahaha, you're coming to arrest me!"
The Hundred Eyes Demon Lord was dumbfounded, the people who came to the underworld just finished saying that they would lose their mana, and the ghost that was flying like a swift still had mana left!
Su Ji exchanged a look with the Hundred Eyes Demon Lord, and hurriedly passed through the ghost gate and chased after the mysterious ghost.
