Chapter 567 36. Riots in the underworld, ghosts appear
Countless shadows stood on the dark soil.
They are greedy for everything they can see.
The underworld is still undulating, and huge things are constantly emerging from the ground, roaring toward the sky.
This is the anger and resentment accumulated during the long time they were buried in the underworld. This emotion has long been twisted into a desire to kill all visible things in their sleep. It is not that the errands in the underworld cannot be killed, their consciousness can be taken away, their functions can be taken away, and everything can be taken away!
They emerged from the darkness, their huge bodies illuminated by a sea of orange lanterns.
The underworld is extending, encroaching on the territory that belongs to the underworld. Not long after, many tributaries of the River of Forgetfulness were cut off. The underworld creatures actually still retain their hunting instinct. They first cut off the prey's survival foundation, then surrounded it so that the prey had nowhere to escape, and finally attacked the entire ghost town to enjoy the feast. The Messengers of the Underworld are essentially of the same origin as they are, and they can hunt to increase the power they have lost during long periods of slumber and suppression.
The ghost messenger who left the extradition ship hid in the ghost town, listening to the beast-like roars outside the city, and instinctively felt fear.
He began to regret, regretting why he didn't follow the extradition boat and leave here with the Dragon Lord. If you leave here and follow the Dragon Lord, you will definitely not receive such threats, right? He witnessed with his own eyes that the Dragon King unfolded a pure white statue and split the underworld with one blow, killing the ghosts in the underworld.
These things that are extremely threatening to the messengers are just small fish and shrimps to the dragon king, and they can be destroyed in an instant.
Why...did he get off the ship in a daze?
Gui Cha doesn’t know.
But there were constant vibrations above the ghost town, which made his heart tremble. Two behemoths are entrenched above the ghost town, their faces covered with cow and horse masks respectively. These two behemoths were fighting with the creatures of the underworld. Each of their punches could smash an incoming ghost, but there were too many of them, and the bull-headed and horse-faced beasts were entangled and unable to escape.
Not long after the Dragon Lord left, the underworld came back. There were exaggerated underworld creatures carrying the soil of the underworld across the Wangchuan River, and then fell down into a corpse. The underworld creatures spread the underworld on the corpse, and finally crossed the river of forgetfulness. The river surrounds this port city.
The old judge stood on the pavilion, looking at the fight under the sky. The creatures from the underworld seemed to have assimilated their characteristics in the long silence. They all had slender arms and pale skin. They surged over like a white tide that could flood the world.
The old judge's cheek twitched. He saw something and subconsciously stepped back.
There was something brewing in the underworld. It appeared quickly from the darkness and attacked the bull-headed horse face. Its giant blade-like claws pierced the chest of the bull-headed horse face, and then its winding body wrapped around the bodies of the two behemoths. The bull-headed horse face roared in pain. The sound resounded throughout the entire port city, and their masks cracked, with a bright red blood-like liquid oozing from the cracks.
The thing turned its head in the direction of the bright red liquid, opened its sharp teeth, and actually swallowed a whole head. It was drinking the liquid wantonly.
"No... no!" the old judge growled. In his sight, the body of the python-like underworld creature was expanding rapidly, and black mist filled its side. The burly and muscular body of the Minotaur and Horse Face quickly shriveled up, and the underworld creature was even chewing on the Minotaur and Horse Face's flesh and bones.
The rest of the underworld creatures rushed over and joined the feast.
As powerful as a bull's head and a horse's face, it was also submerged in this tide.
…………
In the mortal world, some subtle changes occurred in the scarlet universe.
The gates of hell were opened in countless realms, even in the void of the universe. On the black soil, the underworld creatures faced the gates of hell and showed quite kind smiles to the creatures in the world.
The era of returning to the source of law changes, the era of the ancients breaking their oaths.
Every moment, civilization and the world are swept into dust.
But the arrival of the creatures from the underworld undoubtedly adds a different kind of brilliance to this universe where all things are advancing.
Yinsi, Suying Palace of the Ten Palaces.
All the Yamas from the ten palaces were there, standing in the sky and earth, looking down at the extremely small Dragon Lord in front of them.
"The underworld and the Yang world are in such a state because of the turmoil in the underworld. Do you still have the leisure to wait here for my arrival?" Li Xi'an sat cross-legged, with a pot of wine, a bracelet, and a notebook on the table in front of him. Thin booklet.
"The universe noticed because of his action, so he had to go to the dark side of the universe to defend himself against foreign enemies. The Yinsi, where the source of death is not present, is unable to suppress the underworld. Even if we take action, it will only cause more powerful monsters to appear in the underworld. What's more, Dragon Lord, This statement is wrong, our true bodies are guarding the underworld in all directions to prevent the unrest from spreading, and we did not come to see the Dragon Lord out of idleness," said the Wheel King directly in front.
"The Dragon King possesses the power that can be used once and for all. At least it is enough to suppress the underworld before death returns to the underworld."
Li Xi'an looked surprised, "I actually have such ability. Why don't you ask Yama to explain it in detail?"
King Qin Guang glanced at Li Xi'an, and there were two little ghosts standing beside him with their heads lowered. They didn't speak, just stood silently. Like King Qin Guang, none of the Yamas knew what the dragon king and his two imps wanted.
"The appearance of Lord Dragon...is a giant golden tree with branches covered with jade plaques?"
"Yes." Li Xi'an nodded.
Zhang Yao in the Heaven Cauldron was pacing and wondering, "These Yamas don't care about the affairs of the world, so why are they paying so much attention to you? There shouldn't be many ways for them to see you."
"Although I don't know how Long Jun got such a Dharma image, the prototype of this Dharma image comes from Jiuyou. Long Jun comes from Jiuzhou, so he naturally knows that Jiuzhou is now broken, and reincarnation is naturally unable to run. To be honest, the underworld is also like this now, because The underworld is broken, so it needs the underworld to maintain it, and the source of death to serve as the foundation.”
"The dragon's statue once served as the foundation of reincarnation, so it is perfect for calming down the current turmoil in the underworld."
Li Xi'an fiddled with the wine glass in his hand, thinking that his original intention was to plant the image of the Food Immortals in the underworld, but now the hell gods came to beg him to plant the image of the Food Immortals in the underworld.
But the planting he planned to do was probably not the same thing as the Yamas' need to quell the unrest.
"As a living person, I cannot stay in the underworld for long." Li Xi'an said.
"It's okay. King Qin Guang invited me to Suying Palace, isn't it just for this matter?" said a Yama on the right side of King Chakravartin, the King of Pingping who is in charge of the bottom of the sea.
"Yes, yes!" The other Yamas nodded.
King Qin Guang stroked his beard and showed a reassuring smile.
"The booklet in front of Mr. Long is the certificate left to the underworld."
"Life and death?" Li Xi'an called out a name based on his impression of the legend.
The Yamas said: "With this thin, you can order the messengers of the Yin Division to be the arms of the Dragon King and the throne of Yama. This is our sincerity."
"Can there be one more Yama in the Ten Halls?"
"Of course not. This book of life and death belongs to the wheel-turning king. It was the wheel-turning king who gave up his seat of Yama to Lord Dragon. We only need Lord Dragon to help us calm down the chaos. The ownership of this seat of Yama depends entirely on Lord Dragon. Mind.”
Seemingly aware of the conversation between Li Xi'an and King Qin Guang, King Ping Ping added: "The throne of Yama will not affect the Dragon Lord's return to the human world, so the Dragon Lord can rest assured. When the Dragon Lord returns to the human world, the Yama throne will remain in the underworld. Whenever you return to the underworld, the Yama position will take the initiative, and no existence can affect the Dragon Lord, the Yama position. Even if the Dragon Lord leaves and never returns to the underworld, the Ten Halls of Yama will be regarded as only the Nine Halls, and the Tenth Hall of Yama. Save it forever for the Dragon King.”
"Sounds very tempting." Li Xi'an smiled.
"Long Jun only needs to open this book of life and death, take the seal of Yama, and imprint his true spirit on the seal and the book of life and death to become the tenth Yama."
Li Xi'an pressed his hand on the light blue book, and the fine dragon scales covered his palm, curling up with golden sparks.
"In that case, let's welcome the new Tenth Yama." He whispered.
The wheel-turning king in the center gradually disappears. He retreats from the wheel-turning king's body and reveals his true appearance. He is called the Five-Hua Mighty Spirit True Lord.
His traces in the underworld were erased with the change of power, but his demeanor did not decline, and his momentum increased instead of declining.
The book of life and death was opened, and the sound of turning the pages was clear.
The spirits between heaven and earth suddenly stagnated, and divine light erupted from behind the bodies of the Yamas standing tall on the sky. King Qin Guang lost his reassuring smile and shouted: "Red Dragon, what are you going to do?"
One of the two little ghosts opened the thin seal of life and death, and the other lifted up the seal to cover the soul. The tenth Yama position appeared around them. The gears of the natural laws were suspended behind them. The two little ghosts' big bodies were moving rapidly. It swelled, becoming towering in the breath, and the densely populated Yama Temple rose with a bang!
Their hands grasped the top of the hall and narrowed their eyes like thousands of lanterns.
All ghosts worship.
The tenth Yama is the wheel-turning king.
I was drunk yesterday. I’m sorry. (T_T)
