Shen Tu's words confirmed the truth of the rumors spread by the old ghost, but he did not see any joy or excitement on Xiang Sheng's face.
With such a character, he is truly a natural judge of the underworld. No wonder he was favored by the Queen Mother Hou Tu.
"Lord Xiang."
He looked solemn and talked about business: "Before you came here, you must have seen the nightmare.
You passed away during a time of unrest in the underworld, so you must have many questions in your mind."
Is Shen Tu going to solve the mystery?
Xiang Sheng perked up slightly: "I'm all ears."
"You are too polite, Lord. You and I are colleagues. Whether those who have fallen into the underworld can return to this place depends on our concerted efforts. This god will tell you everything."
Shen Tu took a sip of wine, sighed softly, and recounted the entanglements of thousands of years.
"Demons arise from the human heart, and the hostility of the living beings in our world has become more and more serious over time, thus affecting the underworld.
All kinds of jealousy and resentment gathered and entangled, breeding a kind of resentful ghost in the darkest corner of the eighteen levels of hell that is good at feeding on people's emotions.
It is called a ghost, but that is not entirely true, because the underworld cannot imprison it, and its ability to stir up emotions can even affect the ghosts in the underworld.
The Queen Mother Hou Tu named it "Yan", and everyone in the underworld took action to kill it.
However, this strange existence can only be suppressed but not eliminated.
As long as there are human hearts in the world where it is, it can be resurrected infinitely.
Therefore, Hou Tu Niangniang came up with a plan to open the door to another world and exile it to an uninhabited area.
Without emotions to feed on, Nightmare will soon starve to death.
But unexpectedly, something went wrong at the critical moment."
When Shen Tu mentioned the incident, a trace of disgust flashed across his eyes, but his tone remained unchanged: "The underworld was implicated and fell here. My Taodu Mountain is right in the fallen part.
After coming to this world, this god was seriously injured and had to stay in seclusion for many years to recuperate. After he came out, more than 100,000 years had passed in this world.
I thought that Nightmare would dominate this world, but I found out that Nightmare was completely killed by one person!
The method he used was exactly the same as that used in our underworld, which was to banish it to the void of time and space, so that it could no longer harm the people.
Unfortunately, his plan was cut short because of his wife and children."
Shen Tu said this, and seeing Xiang Sheng's obviously moved expression, he smiled slightly:
"You are right, that person is your master in this world, Si Suiyuan!
He is the only person in this world who controls both time and space.
He controls time and space, and is invincible in this world. It is easy for him to banish evil spirits.
However, for the sake of his soul-destroying wife and children, he forcibly reversed time and space, triggered the rules of this world, and his soul was directly wiped out.
However, a trace of the nightmare's consciousness was hidden in his wife's heart, which anchored it in this world and allowed it to return.
It was very afraid of Si Suiyuan, and even after learning of his death, it did not believe it until it found the remains left in the starry sky and discovered the small world derived from it.
It hated everything about Si Suiyuan and wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible. It wanted to use the same method to lead the ancient tribe to destroy Si Suiyuan's remains, but found that Si Suiyuan had a backup plan. After it went in, it was trapped inside and couldn't get out.
Later, it bewitched Xue Jiushu, a descendant of Si Suiyuan's former subordinates. You should know more about what happened next than I do."
Shen Tu spoke calmly as he straightened out the tangled past, as if the past and the future were all in his sight.
Xiang Sheng couldn't hold back his thoughts and couldn't help asking, "Master Shen Tu knows all this, but does he know about the people in the small world inside Master's body..."
"I don't know."
Shen Tu said with regret: "This god came from the upper realm, and a single thought can cover the entire lower realm.
Therefore, although I cannot leave Taodu Mountain, I have seen everything you have done over the years.
I have tried to find the people you are looking for, but I have searched all the hidden places in the astral realm, big and small, and have found nothing."
After hearing these words, Xiang Sheng felt as if he had been doused with water, his heart cold and empty: "Not even a residual soul?"
Shen Tu shook his head. Seeing that Xiang Sheng seemed to have lost all the strength to move forward, he couldn't bear it and added:
“Every time I think of the scene where the ancient warships blasted the remains into nothingness with a single shot, I always feel strange.
The laws of time and space are strange, and Si Suiyuan's remains are not so easy to destroy.
Perhaps, that world still exists. It’s just that I’m not good at time and space, so I don’t know where to find it.”
As soon as these words came out, Xiang Sheng seemed to have grasped the last straw, and his gloomy eyes immediately rekindled with hope: "Is there any other way to find it?"
Shen Tu was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke: "If you can find the large peach tree left behind in this world, help me support the underworld to escape from this world.
The moment the passage between the two worlds opens, the space and time of heaven and earth will fall into chaos for a moment.
By then, even if Si Suiyuan's remains are protected by the Dao of Time and Space, they will be nowhere to hide."
Xiang Sheng said directly, "If you have any clues about the big peach tree, I will go look for it immediately!"
She didn't hesitate at all, and didn't even question whether Shen Tu was taking advantage of her.
Shen Tu's eyes became more complicated.
Xiang Sheng holds a priestly position, yet he is so sentimental. This is not a good thing for her.
But he was not familiar with Xiang Sheng yet, so it was difficult for him to persuade him.
He sighed deeply, "This God's words may seem like I'm taking advantage of the Lord of the Mansion, but I'm willing to guarantee with my divine power that every word I say is the truth.
But after the relic jumped through time and space, is there still a small world inside it..."
"Lord Shen Tu, there is no need to say more. I believe you."
Xiang Sheng interrupted the second half of the sentence, "Sir, please tell us how to find the big peach tree."
