"My Lord, the King of Fengdu wants to ask you for the red spider lily."
The monkey knelt beside the cold stone bed, speaking in a respectful tone.
"Higanbana?"
Lord Taishan, who was lying on the bed, showed a look of surprise and suddenly sat up.
It can be seen that the Lord of Mount Tai is an old man who looks to be in his sixties or seventies. His gray hair looks messy and there is a flush on his face from drinking.
But at this moment, his face was extremely cold, and he didn't look drunk at all.
"What does the King of Fengdu want the red spider lily for? Doesn't he already have it?"
Hearing this, the monkey shook his head in confusion and said, "Master, in my opinion, it's not the King of Fengdu himself who wants the red spider lily, but the people from the mortal world he brought with him who want the red spider lily."
"Oh, really?"
A sneer flashed across the face of the Lord of Mount Tai. "The red spider lily grows by the Yellow Springs River. It is a flower condensed from endless death energy, hence, it is also called the flower of death."
"But everything has two sides. The end of life is death, and the end of death is life!"
"These people in the mortal world want the red spider lily, probably because they want to save people."
After all, he is the Lord of Mount Tai and has lived for countless years. Although he has also been a mess for countless years, he guessed the real reason why Chen Xuan and others wanted the red spider lily in an instant.
"Master, do you want to see me?"
The monkey asked in a low voice.
It knows its owner's personality. If the owner doesn't want to see the other person, it will not give him any face even if you are the King of Fengdu or Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.
"Meet me! Why not? I'm actually quite curious about the origins of these mortals. They're so powerful that they've had the Emperor of Fengdu and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva speak for them at the same time, and even came to see me personally!"
The Lord of Mount Tai lay down again, maintaining the same reclining position he had at the beginning, with his back to the monkey, and said, "Go and bring them here."
"yes!"
The monkey nodded respectfully and retreated quietly.
The Underworld Sea is boundless. At this moment, Chen Xuan and the others are standing on the Underworld Sea.
It was dark all around, and the blood moon in the sky hung high, emitting an enchanting light.
Chen Xuan squatted down and inserted his hand into the Nether Sea. In an instant, he felt a bone-chilling cold.
This sea water is like ice that has been condensed for billions of years. If you touch it, the coldness will penetrate deep into your bones and hit the depths of your soul!
Chen Xuan withdrew his hand and saw that the hand he had just put into the Nether Sea had turned purple due to the cold.
There's even a feeling of numbness and loss of sensation.
"It's really cold."
Chen Xuan shook his hands vigorously, and only then did his cold and numb hands regain some feeling.
"Legend has it that the Nether Sea was formed from a tear from the Nether Lord."
Seeing Chen Xuan shaking his hands constantly, the Emperor of Fengdu couldn't help but explain with a smile.
Anyone who can be called the Lord is naturally the strongest person in the world!
"No wonder my pure Yang body can be frozen into a popsicle."
Chen Xuan was a little surprised. He didn't expect that there was such a legend about this Nether Sea.
But there is no doubt that this news is shocking enough. Even the dignified Lord of the Underworld would shed tears?
"It is said that Ming Zun was a person from the mythological era and the founder of the underworld. Of course, I was not born in the mythological era, so all these stories are just hearsay."
The King of Fengdu chuckled. He, like Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva and the World-Honored King Buddha, was a person from the end of the barbaric era. For various reasons, he survived that fault era.
Although they experienced that era, they were too weak at that time. They were not the protagonists of the era, and they were not clear about many things.
As he was speaking, the monkey came back.
The monkey was still swaying from side to side, with a drunken look on his face, snoring, and rubbing his red nose with his paws.
"Where is the Lord of Mount Tai?"
The Emperor of Fengdu took a look at it and asked.
"Master Fujun is sleeping, please follow me."
The monkey yawned, looking like he was sleeping and was woken up by you.
After saying that, he turned around and walked towards Mount Tai, swaying from side to side, as if he would fall at any moment.
"Come on."
The King of Fengdu spoke, and everyone followed the monkey.
Mount Tai, sitting on the Dark Sea, does not seem to be far away because it is so huge, but in fact, it is like running to the mountain and the horse will die if you try to walk to it.
If a powerful person in the divine realm were to run for thousands or even tens of thousands of years, he would not be able to reach Mount Tai.
After all, the underworld sea is boundless and endless.
Of course, this distance is nothing to Chen Xuan and the others.
In just the time it takes for a stick of incense to stick, they slowly arrived at the foot of Mount Tai. If the monkey had not been so slow and looked like it would fall drunk on the side of the road at any moment, their speed would have been even faster.
As soon as he arrived at the foot of Mount Tai, Chen Xuan instantly felt a sense of oppression. This towering mountain seemed to be the backbone of the entire underworld!
When people stand here, they will feel very small!
"Do you feel very uncomfortable?"
When the Emperor of Fengdu saw that not only Chen Xuan but everyone else around him looked uncomfortable, he couldn't help but laugh.
He continued slowly, "It is said that at the bottom of Mount Tai, during the mythical era of the Underworld Lord, a supreme evil ghost was suppressed."
"Even the Lord of Hell couldn't kill him back then, he could only suppress him. The avenue of that evil spirit was branded at the base of Mount Tai. Although the evil spirit has disappeared now, the avenue related to him at the base of Mount Tai has never been erased."
"That's why we feel uncomfortable the moment we come in."
According to the King of Fengdu, the bottom of Mount Tai was once a cage, the largest prison in the underworld.
Later, because this supreme evil ghost was locked up, the other evil ghosts could not survive.
Therefore, the Lord of Hell created the Eighteen Levels of Hell and locked all other evil spirits into the Eighteen Levels of Hell.
This prison at the foot of Mount Tai only suppresses that supreme evil ghost!
It can be said that the current operating system of the underworld was created by the Lord of the Underworld. Whether it is the six reincarnations, the eighteen levels of hell, or the ancient Taishan underworld, they were all created by him!
"It's just a trivial matter. What else is there to bring up?"
The monkey walking in front, upon hearing the introduction of the King of Fengdu, could not help but scratch his ears and cursed impatiently.
"Besides, all of this is just a legend. Who knows if it's true? What if it was made up by later generations?"
