Today, the Shenzhou continent has been completely submerged under the endless deep sea.
The huge water pressure caused most of the houses and buildings to be razed to the ground, leaving no trace at all.
If it is a large city, there will still be broken walls and ruins left because the city walls and gates were built with hard stone bricks.
Wei Dongliu followed the low-lying area of the seabed, struggling to identify the original traces of the river valley. When he found a piece of broken wall, he could roughly guess which big city in the outside world it corresponded to.
After searching carefully like this, they finally found the location of the ancient capital.
In this secret realm, all the terrain probably comes from the old man's own memory. If the Dragon Prison Well in the ancient capital city cannot lead to the Nine Netherworld, or if there is no Nine Netherworld in the secret realm, then everything Wei Dongliu did at this time would be in vain.
Therefore, when he first entered the secret realm, he asked the old man bluntly whether "the Nine Netherworld and Hell exist."
Once you get the answer, you can take action.
After finding the location of the Dragon Prison Well, Wei Dongliu quickly flew down into the well on his sword.
Sure enough, although the direction inside had changed a little, it was basically the same as what Luo Yan remembered - it seemed that the old man had been here before.
Arriving deep into the Dragon Prison Well, Wei Dongliu found the entrance to the earth vein. There was no old dragon blocking the entrance.
The entrance to the earth vein looks like a broken skin wound, with a faint, dark blue light shining through it, which is the external manifestation of Yin energy.
Wei Dongliu activated the chaotic demonic body state, then leaped into the entrance to the earth vein.
The Nine Netherworld and the Eighteen Hells, each layer is a world of its own, and the further down you go, the thicker the yin energy becomes.
The last time he came here with Jiang Li'an, both of them had low levels of cultivation and did not dare to stay for too long. They just picked some red spider lilies along the bank of the Wangchuan River and then left in a hurry.
Now that Wei Dongliu has mastered extremely advanced magic skills, he is naturally not afraid of those ordinary ghost soldiers and generals, but in order to avoid the annoying interrogation and questioning, he simply turned his body into a ball of black mist and flew through the air at an incredibly fast speed.
Um?
Wei Dongliu suddenly realized that there seemed to be no ghost soldiers guarding the entrance to the Ghost Gate below.
Could it be that this world-destroying disaster has already spread to hell?
Considering what the old man said, that the hell and the underworld were more severely affected by the catastrophe of destruction, Wei Dongliu had some guesses.
The different levels of the Yellow Springs Cave Heaven are all connected to each other through the entrances of the earth veins. Wei Dongliu found an entrance and then went down to the second level.
"A Jing." He said in his heart, "Did you find out?"
"Well." Kunlun Mirror said in a deep voice, "It has been destroyed more on the rule level, but on the physical level..."
"There was almost no frontal attack." Wei Dongliu said directly.
He slowly scanned the surroundings and confirmed once again that the flow direction of the Yin energy inside the Hell was becoming chaotic.
Taking the outside world as an example, famous mountains and rivers often have rich spiritual energy, and the spiritual energy becomes thinner the further out you go.
In this way, the cultivator can choose a specific location to ensure that he can have the best spiritual environment for his practice.
In the underworld, the Yin energy should be in a similar situation: the lower the river flows, the more Yin energy accumulates.
But now in this secret realm, the flow of Yin Qi has become completely disordered, and there is no pattern at all - if there were a ghost cultivator practicing here, he would go crazy.
However, although the energy flow path has been completely destroyed, due to the layers of obstruction of the earth's crust, the water from the Milky Way and the burning stars outside have not caused any impact on the Yellow Springs Hell.
In other words, if Taoist Luo of Hell really had some way to seal Hell with the fragments of the Heaven-Repairing Stone and then re-arrange the flow path of Yin Qi, then it would not be completely impossible to create a refuge for the human race.
Of course, it is not something that ordinary cultivators can do to transform Yin Qi into spiritual energy that can be cultivated by human cultivators. In the refuge built by Hell Dao, I think only cultivators from Hell Dao can survive without restrictions.
Wei Dongliu continued to search for the entrance to the earth veins, and gradually went deeper into the lower level of the Yellow Springs Hell.
The further down you go, the more violently the Yin Qi flows, and its purity drops significantly, appearing extremely thick and filthy.
Fortunately, he was a Chaos Demon Body, which had a great resistance to these filthy impurities. If it were another cultivator, as long as he took a breath, his meridians would rot and he would die immediately.
"This is not right." Wei Dongliu said in surprise, "If I remember correctly, the lower you go in the hell, the higher the purity of the Yin energy should be."
"That's why the ghost soldiers and generals in hell, as well as all kinds of demon kings, become more powerful as you go down the layers... If it gets more filthy like this, then the depths of hell will really be barren."
"This is actually normal." Su Mingjian said, "In the celestial world, pure air is light and turbid air is heavy, so turbid air will 'fall' towards the center and gather, which is Yin energy."
"And in the center of the earth is the 'chaos' of the celestial world. Yin energy is inherently very inert, so it can seal the chaos in the center of the earth, preventing it from invading the outside world."
"But now the world has been destroyed, causing the Yin Qi to flow violently and disorderly, and it is impossible to continue to seal the deeper chaos, so the surrounding environment has become extremely filthy."
"No wonder the old man didn't try to stop me when he heard I was going to the Yellow Springs Hell." Wei Dongliu sneered, "If this place was conducive to survival and hiding, he would definitely use some tricks to send me to a more dangerous place."
"But the depths of hell are really not a place for humans to stay. It is only because of the protection of the earth's crust that it can block the water from the sky and the bombardment of the stars, otherwise I really can't imagine why the hell road would choose this place as its location."
After talking with Yijing and Yijian for a while, Wei Dongliu finally arrived at the Avici Hell, which is the deepest part of hell.
The headquarters of the Hell Sect was built in the demon city of Hell. No one knew what benefits Taoist Na Luo had given to the Demon Lord to make the demons in the city turn a blind eye to the Hell.
Wei Dongliu rushed to the demon city according to his memory, and saw that many city walls, mansions and houses were still there, but the streets were empty.
Obviously, affected by the chaos gushing out from the earth's core, all the demons here ran away without a single one left.
When Wei Dongliu arrived at the sect’s headquarters in the Hell Realm in his memory, he saw a huge deep pit.
It's more like a toilet than a deep pit, with a large amount of foul air constantly pouring out of it, the kind that would kill you instantly if you inhale it.
Wei Dongliu was also speechless, thinking that Hell really knew how to choose a location.
Find the place in this layer of hell that is closest to the chaos at the center of the earth, and then seal it with the fragments of the Heaven-Repairing Stone. This will eliminate the biggest hidden danger in hell.
If I were to take the fragment of the Heaven-Repairing Stone by force, the suppressed chaos below would inevitably riot, and then overflow from the earth veins, causing disasters to all living beings - these karmas would be blamed on me again!
"Ajing, let's start." He sighed softly.
"Yes." The Kunlun Mirror began to scan cooperatively.
Wei Dongliu carefully observed the flow of chaos and began to conceive a formation plan in his mind.
Speaking of which, we really have to thank the Wanxiang Immortal of Penglai Yuqing Temple for giving Luo Yan the formation scroll for constructing a small sky dome, otherwise Wei Dongliu would have no way to get the entrance to the center of the earth.
He quickly went over the plan in his mind, then took out the tripod and formation equipment that he had prepared long ago from his storage bag and began to set up the formation.
A few days later.
There was another earth-shattering explosion, accompanied by a large amount of chaotic filth splashing out, and the dusty Wei Dongliu also escaped on his sword.
There is a reason why Hell chose to use the fragments of the Heaven-Repairing Stone to seal the chaos deep in the earth's core. Ordinary cauldron magic weapons could hardly suppress the chaos in the earth's core. Not long after the formation was set up, the formation tools themselves were contaminated and became inoperative.
If the formation tool is to be kept from being polluted, the chaos in the earth's core must be suppressed first. However, to suppress the chaos, the formation must be set up first...
There's nothing I can do.
Wei Dongliu pondered for a moment and asked:
"A Jing, do you have any magic weapon that is not afraid of filth?"
"Yes." Su Mingjian answered quickly, "Isn't that her true form?"
"The Kunlun Mirror is a divine object, naturally bright. As long as you use its body as a suppressing device and set up the formation, you will definitely be able to suppress the chaos in the center of the earth..."
"Stop talking!" Wei Dongliu shouted at it, "A Jing is my beloved relative, I will never sacrifice her in this hell!"
Kunlun Jing was very moved when she heard this. Although she knew that she would definitely not be abandoned by Wei Dongliu given the great role she could play, she still felt a little excited and happy when she heard him say "beloved".
"That's what you said." Su Mingjian still didn't give up and continued to fan the flames. "First, use the Kunlun Mirror as a suppressing device to set up the formation so that the chaos can't overflow and pollute the suppressing device. Then slowly adjust the formation and use other suppressing devices to replace the Kunlun Mirror, right?"
"What you said does make some sense..." Wei Dongliu thought.
Of course, it is not possible to press the Kunlun mirror into the formation. But if it is just borrowed for use, it seems that it does not matter?
Seeing that Su Mingjian had succeeded in fanning the flames, Kunlun Jing was also extremely angry and echoed:
"That's true. Why don't we use the Su Ming Sword as a weapon to suppress the formation? It is forged from the energy of the Taiyin, and is completely unafraid of the chaos and filth at the center of the earth. Isn't it much more useful than me?"
"What a joke!" Su Mingjian saw that he was in trouble and quickly argued, "Master Sword Master, I am your natal sword!"
"If you don't have me, your combat power loss will be too serious... But it's different for Ah Jing. After you finish patching up the sky, you don't need to continue to open a small account to mix in the major sects, and naturally you won't need this mirror, right?"
Wei Dongliu became more and more interested and thought that what he said made a lot of sense!
When I have finished patching up the sky, I won't need to create a new account, so I won't need this mirror-breaking illusion...
I only heard Kunlun Mirror hurriedly say:
"No way? Guanshui, if you complete the sky repair, it will be equivalent to betraying all the major sects, and you will definitely be hunted down by then."
"With my illusion and teleportation, you can go anywhere in the world. But if you leave me here to suppress the chaos, what if something goes wrong with the formation and my body cannot be moved out? How will you deal with those sects later?"
"Why not leave the Taiyin Suming Sword here, and then go get the Taiyang Zhenmei Sword! Anyway, our identities will be exposed by then, so even if we go to Nanjiang Tianqian openly and exchange the information about the Dragon Fox for the Taiyang Zhenmei Sword, what's the harm?"
Wei Dongliu thought it was right. Ah Jing's illusion and teleportation were not only useful for playing as an alt, but also very useful for helping me escape!
On the contrary, that broken sword only knows how to conceal its strength, have fun and stir up trouble all day long. Although its rank is indeed very high, it is not irreplaceable... Maybe the Sun True Darkness Sword will be easier to control?
"That's enough!" Su Mingjian said angrily, "The sword spirit of the Taiyang Zhenmei Sword is an old-fashioned person who doesn't even know what 'a man of insight is a hero' means!"
"Master Sword Master, I, Su Ming, have good vision, so I picked you at first sight in the sword pool. If you can't convince the Sun Sword, it will be useless to subdue it with force!"
"If you don't believe me, you can go to Southern Xinjiang and ask the Sun Sword Master in person!"
Wei Dongliu thought that was indeed the case. He still remembered the words "Why is Taiyin not singing, and why is Taiyang so dim" engraved near the sword pond in Shushan.
The Taiyin Suming Sword refused to obey because it discovered Yin Xiaojing's identity as a demon. It can also be explained by the fact that "the human race's magic sword cannot obey aliens."
The Sun Zhenmei Sword resisted with all its might, simply because it refused to submit to Ouyang Zhao. The sword spirit's rebellious consciousness was too strong.
Don't let the time come when I take the Sun True Fire Sword from Ouyang Zhao, but the sword spirit refuses to obey me, and the Sun True Fire still burns wherever I go... Then my reputation will be ruined, and I will be laughed to death by the monks who are chasing me.
My Su Ming Sword is still trustworthy.
So Wei Dongliu looked at Kunlun Mirror again, and heard Ah Jing say:
"It's okay. When we steal the fragments of the Heaven-Repairing Stone from the Hell Road, we can leave the Su Ming Sword here and use it as a weapon to set up the formation."
"Then after we repair the sky, we will go get the Sun Sword. It would be best if the Sword is obedient. If it is not obedient, we can take it to the depths of hell and exchange it for the Su Ming Sword, right?"
Wei Dongliu was delighted when he heard this, thinking that this was a really good idea! This way, I won't lose anything anyway, great!
"You are such a genius!" Su Mingjian was amazed. "He has already defected to Hell, but you still want the Sword Master to return to the depths of Hell. Are you afraid that Hell can't catch him?"
"Master Sword Master, this broken mirror is harboring evil intentions. I suggest that you leave her here."
"Sowing discord!" Kunlun Jing refused to give in. "This broken sword is spreading rumors and misleading people. I suggest that it is better to leave it here."
"Alright, alright, stop arguing." Seeing the quarrel between the mirror and the sword, Wei Dongliu could only smile bitterly and come out to persuade them to make peace, "You are all my wings, okay?"
"Without Ah Jing, I wouldn't be able to maneuver around while being hunted by the various sects; without Su Ming, I wouldn't be able to calmly protect myself when being attacked by the immortals."
"So you are like my left and right wings. Without any of you, I will not be able to escape... I will not sacrifice any of you."
He spoke with great emotion, but Kunlun Mirror and Suming Sword did not show any emotion, but fell silent at the same time.
I don’t know why... I suddenly don’t want to talk to this guy.
