Chapter 289: The Three Forks in the Underworld
The Castle of Skeletons is covered with dark clouds, and the battles of all sizes around it are non-stop. On a mountain peak, an old man and a black-robed woman stood side by side. This is the king of Shura, Hongshi Gong, standing beside the princess's clone.
"Shi Lao, the gift of the master and servant is not necessary. I'm Hongluan, Fei'er doesn't stick to this. β
"I really can't imagine that the female Rakshasa of the Shura Domain is actually the doppelganger of the princess of the Demon Realm. Hongshi Gong has been in the underworld for more than 2,000 years, and he really has no eyes and no beads and does not know Mount Tai! Renxi Shura Wang's mansion was rescued by Her Royal Highness the Princess, and Hongshi Gong is willing to follow him here. β
"Things are not going well over there in Chen'e, I have already asked her to rush over! The Hades Cave is about to open, and I still have to make some preparations for it. β
"Yes, please rest assured, Your Highness. β
......
At the fork in the underworld, a group of skeletons hurriedly dodged a group of speeding figures.
"It's the Black and White Impermanence Army, I heard that they are going to the White Bone Mountain near the Skull Castle to guard the last Hades Cave Mansion. β
"These Impermanent Army cultivators are all ghostly monks between the seventh and eighth ranks. Its own strength is not strong, and it is all relying on the attack and defense of the Yama Palace's standard equipment to challenge high-level meditation. I heard that a dozen or so impermanent armies can kill a ninth-order Shura. Dozens of impermanent troops don't even want to provoke the king, looking at this team, there are two or three hundred, to say the least! It can be regarded as the most elite force in the Yama Palace. At this time, when I went to the Skull Castle, it can be seen that the four forces of the Skull Castle have been tense and severe. I don't know how many meditations have been wiped out because of this election of the Hades. β
"Daoyou is right, the king of Yama controls the administrative center of the underworld, and the strength of the underworld, especially the continuous strength of the Shura, has affected the normal operation of the underworld, so it is necessary to start the war and consume the strength of all parties. Concentrate resources further. In fact, not only the underworld, but also any realm has to consume and release energy in the form of war due to the accumulation of development pressure to a certain extent, so as to usher in a new development process. True martial arts are like this, and so will the fairy world. β
"Hurry to find death! so fast!"
The fact that ordinary skeleton people are not strong does not mean that they do not have wisdom, and when there is a period of idle talk, the black and white impermanence army has already gone away. Two hours later, the caravan of skeletons finally came to the fork in the road. The leader immediately ordered to stop and set up camp on a small hill dozens of feet away on the side of the road to set up defenses. While they were busy, suddenly, three figures came from far and near, alerting the Shura guards and the skeleton people. Two women and one man, Han Cong will recognize them here, it is Jiang Xiaoling and Jian Yu Meteor.
"Sword rain meteor, this is the three forks. This three-way crossing is different from other places, I heard that there are two roads, one leading to the Skeleton Castle and the other leading to the Gate of Reincarnation. Moreover, it is strange that the two paths are constantly changing. Don't be wrong again, I heard that no matter what kind of cultivation you are, you can't turn back when you enter the path of reincarnation, and when the time comes, you will be reincarnated and become a new person, and even your mother and son won't recognize it. Meteor, you go and ask these skeleton people which is the way to the skeleton castle. β
After Jiang Xiaoling finished speaking, Jian Yu couldn't help but smile.
"Xiaoling, let me ask! The last time the meteor asked for directions in the mouth of Yin and Yang, it turned out to lead us to the Netherworld Pool. After Sword Rain finished speaking, he immediately swept towards the Skeleton Clan's camp.
"There's no way, this is the underworld, there are too many ghosts on the road, and it's pointless to kill them who only have first-order ghosts. But they really like to mess around. Meteor said with a smile.
"It's not their fault, they are cultivating with the help of the underworld. Ghost meditation, the foundation of the first three orders is very important. Merging the underworld is the most basic exercise. Your sword to destroy the first-order ghosts is indeed meaningless to hundreds of millions of first-order ghosts. Jiang Xiaoling looked at the back of Jian Yu leaving and said lightly.
"Fellow Daoist, I would like to ask you which path is the way to Skull Castle. β
Although Jian Yu's figure has the Underworld Pill to hide his true face, he still reveals a delicate face in the underworld. This remark immediately attracted countless empty skulls with eyes and beads. The skeleton that had no strategy relied on the underworld to sense the breath of the other party, and without waiting for the skeleton to answer, two seventh-order Shura guards immediately walked over. Sword Rain Yuan Late Infant Cultivator Cultivation, after the Underworld Pill disguised his identity, it seemed that he was only a sixth-order Green Sha Shura. Those two seventh-order blood demons naturally didn't take her seriously.
"Is this Taoist friend in a hurry to reincarnate, such a beautiful Shura, how about double cultivation with me Tieluo?"
Jian Yu's eyes showed a cold light, but he still endured it in the end.
"Daoist friends are cautious, this is the three forks in the underworld. Heaven and earth have an underworld, all things are dominant, be careful of being overwhelmed and dying. β
"That's true, my brother likes to joke, we are Gong Huan's disciples, and if there is anything you need to tell sΓΉ Tiehuan in the future, it is. On the left side of the avenue is the reincarnation gate, and on the right is the skull castle. β
As soon as the other finished speaking, Jiang Xiaoling and Meteor immediately appeared.
"Isn't the seventh-order Shura amazing? β
Meteor was just fierce in his mouth, but unexpectedly, Jiang Xiaoling immediately made a move, and a gossip seal instantly imprisoned the two.
"My Lingnu walks in the underworld, and she is always clean and neat. These pawns, without benefit, never tell the truth. Honestly, which way to get to Castle of Skulls, if you don't say anything, you'll be killed immediately. β
Jiang Xiaoling is fierce and in full swing. Let the faces of the two seventh-order Shura turn from red to green.
"Old Skeleton Kuidan, you tell them, which way to go to the Gate of Reincarnation. β
A hunchbacked skeleton limped over and replied with a bowed head:
"Back to the three adults, we don't know which way to get to the gate of reincarnation. This time it is on the left, and it may be the right later. β
The reincarnation gate is in the northeast of the Yinyangkou, and the skull castle is in the northwest. How can the path of the reincarnation gate be on the left, do you want to harm us?"
Meteor roared angrily and immediately swung his sword at the hunchbacked skeleton.
"My lord, I can't really be sure which one it is, because the direction we go to Skull Castle is different every time. β
"What's going on?"
"Lord Hui, the names of various places in the underworld have a long history, and each place has its own uniqueness. These three forks are different from other forks in the road, and its function is to divide yin and yang, and one enters reincarnation, symbolizing forgetting jΓ¬ a qiΔ to find a new life. The other means clinging to the past and pursuing new heights. Choosing five points is in human wisdom and perseverance, and five points in providence, which is different for everyone, we skeletons cannot enter the reincarnation cycle, so we cannot walk this reincarnation, so no matter how we choose, we will eventually reach the skull castle. β
Jiang Xiaoling asked puzzledly:
"So how did the ghosts and Shura get into the Castle of Skeletons. β
"I don't know, maybe they thought Skull Castle would get there. β
It's better not to ask, Jiang Xiaoling and Jian Yu Meteor immediately hesitated, if they took the wrong path, their cultivation as a true martial arts monk would not be in vain. The three of them had no intention of causing trouble, they had doubts, and they did not dare to choose the path immediately. After a while, after Jiang Xiaoling lifted the ban on the two Shura, the three of them found a nearby forest to rest.
"Meteor, what should I do? I've been restless for the past two days, and my divination skills are not accurate. β
Jiang Xiaoling couldn't make up her mind at this time, and asked helplessly.
"I didn't think there was such a ghost place in the underworld? I don't know what to do? It's a big deal that twenty years later, I'll be a good man again. Entering the path of reincarnation, I want to see what can happen to me? Let's go! If the news is accurate, the team escorting Mrs. Jiang should not have gone far. β
"Old skeleton Kuidan, why are you talking so much? Anyway, both paths are possible, just point one to them. β
The old skeleton moves slowly and has an aging voice. Slowly respond to the Shura's question.
"Young meditators may not be able to meet again because of different paths, but cause and effect will come to you eventually. β
After the old skeleton of Kuidan finished speaking, he no longer paid attention to the two guards, but sat in the corner of the side and didn't know what to think?
Stepping into the intersection, Meteor couldn't help but hesitate and stopped.
"Sword Rain, if I go to the Reincarnation Gate, will you cry sadly!"
"The third princess of the demon world turned her soul, and she still swept the demon world and landed on the true martial arts. What's wrong with you being reincarnated and taking off your stinky skin!"
Although Jian Yu's response was very cold, Jiang Xiaoling was still amused.
"Sword rain meteor, you can be careful, if you are reincarnated again, most of them will become dragon and phoenix brothers and sisters, no matter how handsome and beautiful they are, they will be cheaper than others!"
"Bah, Witch, you're just going to be reincarnated! There is no time to reinvent. Didn't the old skeleton say, where the heart is, where the goal is. I'm all set on the Skull Castle, how could I go on the road of reincarnation. "Meteor is originally a drunkard who doesn't care when the sky falls. In the past, Jian Yu had made up his mind about big and small things, but at this time, seeing that Jiang Xiaoling and Jian Yu had no idea, he immediately showed his manhood. It's just that Jiang Xiaoling and Jian Yu both know him as a person, so they immediately stopped the meteor from entering.
"Meteor, don't mess around. We are all flesh. Entering the reincarnation path will drain the power of the Origin. As far as I know, this is compared to the current monsoon in the early spring of the True Martial Spirit Realm. So, the direction of Skull Castle must be westerly. The direction of the reincarnation gate will be the east wind, and the east wind will rise at dawn, and we will set off. β
Jiang Xiaoling said this, and the sword rain meteor had no reason to object. So after three hours, a glimmer of light gradually appeared in the darkness. Meteor immediately stood up, but Jiang Xiaoling took out a gossip compass. And said:
"Meteor, wait a minute, I'll try to do the math. β
After Jiang Xiaoling finished speaking, the two swimming fish were gently thrown onto the compass.
"Tianqian is in the south and Kun is in the north, Gen Qi is in the northwest, and Zhensi is in the northeast...... Heaven and earth are positioned, the mountains are ventilated, the thunder and wind are thin, the water and fire do not shoot each other, the gossip is wrong, the number of the past is smooth, and the one who knows the future is reversed...... The right east is away from the main hexagram is dangerous, there is no exchange, and the left is windy. It should be good for evil. This is the underworld, and the hexagram may not be very accurate. But the hexagram shouldn't be wrong. Sword rain meteor, let's go to the left!"
After Jiang Xiaoling finished speaking, she immediately took the lead and swept towards the mountain road on the left.
