【bite……】
The prompt sound kept ringing in his mind. With the completion of the last upgrade, the winning rate was almost increased to 90%. Jin Banwei's equipment continued to increase, and he finally drew the full-level paper-making technique.
She didn't know if the system was afraid that she wouldn't be able to draw in the future, so she started to draw some elixir recipes and a collection of talisman papers.
The complete collection of talisman papers can be shown to Guan Jiyue when the time comes. Guan Jiyue's talent in talisman papers is unmatched by her. She has already brought the skills of a paper-making artist to the pinnacle, and talisman papers are merely auxiliary.
More and more treasures were drawn, but strangely, Jin Banwei was not very happy.
She knew that all good things must come to an end, but she had never been prepared for the system to leave. It happened so suddenly that she didn't even have time to say goodbye properly.
The battle continues.
"Xiao Jin, you can go now."
With the help of nine bone spirit lamps, Ren Qiao successfully opened a passage to the underworld. However, there was a problem. As Guan Jiyue had said before, they were still living people after all, and their souls left their bodies and went to the underworld. Without flesh and blood, their means were still greatly restricted.
Jin Banwei's special talisman papers, including those that could bless ghosts, were all useless.
She now has a lot of Rasuna talismans in her system panel, which can be of great help and are not in conflict with the methods of the underworld.
Jin Banwei looked at the palm of her hand and asked Guan Jiyue: "Sister Jiyue, is there any way for us to go down with the blood?"
Zhong Sui looked at the passage and patted Jin Banwei's back heavily: "Tsk, what are you afraid of? We have your wife and I here, so you two don't need to be the main force."
Guan Jiyue also had a headache: "I can say it's easier. My methods don't all require blood, but your paper-making master's methods really cost blood."
Speaking of wasting blood, Lin Ping snorted.
The little old man can't move now, and a big part of the reason is that he has used too much blood, which is a loss that even blood-replenishing pills cannot make up for.
Ren Qiao stretched out her arm, and her snow-white, soft wrist fell into Jin Banwei's palm: "Xiao Jin, you can use my blood."
Ren Qiao has divine bones. She is the only one who can enter the underworld without her soul leaving her body.
Jin Banwei held her soft wrist and glanced at the dark and deep passage: "If the situation is optimistic, we should not need to take action."
She comforted herself in this way.
Her eyes fell slightly on the back of Ren Qiao's hand. After Shen Yuanqing died, the mark of the guardian deity had disappeared, which made Jin Banwei feel a little comforted.
Guan Jiyue adhered to her usual style and never took Guan Xue with her to dangerous places, so in the end only Zhongsui, Guan Jiyue, Jin Banwei and Ren Qiao entered the underworld. Guan Xue wanted to go, but without Guan Jiyue's help, she couldn't even control her soul leaving her body.
She had used up her demonic power over ten thousand years to upgrade her hidden skills, and with her not-so-great brain, she was indeed not suitable to follow them into the underworld.
The passage leading to the underworld was cold and dark. Zhongsui walked in front and lit a faint blue flame.
The tiny wisps of wind blew by, light and soft, but they could hurt the soul.
This was Jin Banwei's first experience of experiencing the feeling of soul leaving the body.
There was no breathing, no heartbeat, her hearing and perception were sharper, but her whole body was cold, as if her heartbeat had been deprived. Among the ghosts, only the Yin officials had bodies similar to those of living people.
They are not Yin officials.
Jin Banwei finally experienced for a moment the world that belonged to Ren Qiao in the past, a world that belonged to ghosts, a world that would subconsciously approach darkness and enjoy the coldness.
Even if her consciousness resists, her soul will subconsciously absorb the evil spirit.
Guan Jiyue frowned at the ghost energy that kept approaching Jin Banwei: "Banwei, don't absorb too much ghost energy, otherwise it will be difficult for your soul to merge into your body."
Jin Banwei spread out her palms somewhat helplessly. Looking at her nails gradually turning red and growing longer, she began to feel anxious: "I, I don't really know how to control the soul."
Ren Qiaoyuan and Zhongsui were walking in the front.
This was the passage she opened. She knew the direction to walk. When she heard the noise, she quickly went around to the back and took Jin Banwei by the hand: "It's okay, I'm here."
After she was held by Ren Qiao, her soul, which seemed to be trapped in an ice cellar, began to feel a little warmth.
The palm of your hand should not be warm, but just by listening to Ren Qiao's voice and feeling her heavy force on your palm, you can really feel the warmth.
Jin Banwei was a little dazed.
She let Ren Qiao lead her. Her soul, which could not tell the direction, took firm steps under her guidance. Her soul was very light and she had trouble controlling it. It would float up after just two steps, but when Ren Qiao led her, she took each step very firmly, and her light soul seemed to have a different weight.
Warm, solid, and irresistible.
Jin Banwei's nails gradually became shorter, and her hands returned to normal. She pinched the back of Ren Qiao's hand, and rubbed her soft hand with her fingertips. Suddenly, she heard a voice she had heard before, and a familiar scene appeared in front of her eyes.
She suddenly said, "Sister, I think I know why you like me?"
Ren Qiao paused and looked sideways. Although she was still walking forward, her attention was completely on Jin Banwei: "Hmm? What did Xiao Jin say was the reason?"
Jin Banwei smiled and pointed at herself with her free hand: "Because I am the little sun."
Ren Qiao was in a daze, and the past scenes slowly played before his eyes.
Jin Banwei guessed right, it was indeed like that. Even the reason why he chose to deceive her in the beginning in order to keep her was because he was greedy for temporary warmth.
Ren Qiao smiled brilliantly and answered her generously, "Yes."
Zhong Sui held the blue flame in his palm and stared at them: "No, I don't understand what you two are saying. How can a person be the sun?"
Jin Banwei is certainly not the scorching sun hanging high in the sky, but she is Ren Qiao’s sun, and her warmth and heat can melt one’s heart.
Jin Banwei didn’t understand it before, but now she suddenly realized it.
At this moment, she was feeling the same warmth that Ren Qiao had felt on her body.
——
The passage was very long and slow, and after waiting for a period of silence, they finally arrived at the completely unfamiliar underworld.
Dim and messy.
There is no alternation of day and night in the underworld. Most of the light comes from lanterns, which are either dark yellow, dark blue, or deep red.
There was a bridge in front of them, and under the bridge was a turbulent river. The water was turbid, and there were green dots of light trembling in it, densely packed and a little eerie.
Beside the bridge, there are dense clusters of red spider lilies, and a confrontation between ghost soldiers and the ghost king.
There was a woman standing on the bridge, half floating in the air, with red spider lilies surrounding her body, falling continuously into the river, towards the ghost soldiers. Her face was pale, her lips were light, and her power suppressed the undead and protected the ghost soldiers.
Looking at the woman's face, Jin Banwei already understood where they were.
Naihe Bridge, Wangchuan River.
This is Meng Po's territory, which is also Leng Siqing's place.
Just as they thought, the Yin officials of the underworld have three souls to guard the earth and seven spirits to enter the world. Once the underworld encounters all-round troubles, they need to use more soul power to guard the undead under their jurisdiction, otherwise the undead will riot in all aspects and the consequences will be disastrous. Therefore, they cannot fight with all their hearts.
Zhong Sui and Ren Qiao immediately ran towards those ghost kings. Under the suppression of their strength, the ghost kings became easy to deal with.
Guan Jiyue twisted the talisman paper in her hand, and her brows twitched as she looked at Ren Qiao, who was killing ghost kings one after another. She silently put away the talisman paper, took out ghost pills one by one, and distributed them to the ghost soldiers. Jin Banwei went up the bridge, and when she got close to Leng Siqing, she lit the Yin Bone Incense.
The scent of the Yin Bone Incense awakened the highly tense nerves, and Leng Siqing saw them.
A little bit of dangerous aura emanated from her, and she glanced at Ren Qiao in the group of ghost kings: "Immortal bone."
In just a moment, she understood why Jin Banwei, Zhong Sui and the others appeared here. The immortal bone that came back to life sounded a warning bell in her heart, but... they were reinforcements.
Leng Siqing's gaze did not stay on Ren Qiao for too long. She lowered her eyes slightly and looked at Jin Banwei. Through Jin Banwei, she saw another face. She sighed, her voice slightly hoarse: "Is there anything wrong with Detective Shen?"
Leng Xiangying's worry about her is because of her memory. Leng Siqing clearly has no memories, but she is still very worried about Leng Xiangying. Jin Banwei doesn't understand why just like Leng Xiangying, but she will give Leng Siqing an answer.
"Officer Shen is fine. She is now in Yang Street with Bai Lian."
Leng Siqing breathed a sigh of relief.
She was different from the previous two times they met. Her face was more solemn than ever before, and her eyes were full of compassion. "Originally, they should have been reincarnated. I was not as good as the Meng Pos of the past. I only saved a few of them."
Jin Banwei understood who Leng Siqing was referring to. If nothing unexpected happened, they were the ghosts who were guarding the Naihe Bridge when Jiang Fei officially attacked the underworld, waiting to drink Mengpo soup and go to reincarnation.
Leng Siqing felt pity for them and was also reflecting on herself, but she didn't need to do so. Meng Po had never encountered the situation of the entire underworld falling before.
Jin Banwei raised her head and looked at the floating Leng Siqing: "Mrs. Mengpo, are you okay?"
Leng Siqing slightly closed her eyes and shook her head gently: "It's okay here, you guys go help Yan Tao, Jiang Fei is over there, she is guarding the passage to the underworld, once she runs out of energy, the souls in trouble in the underworld will go to the world of the living."
Naturally, they were going to help Yan Tao.
The situation in the underworld was not as bad as they had imagined. It could even be said that it was much more stable than they had imagined. Almost every underworld official was doing his best to guard his own territory, which also resulted in the souls in Fengdu being still very stable.
Zhong Sui stayed to help Leng Siqing, and they followed Leng Siqing's guidance and walked towards Yan Tao, distributing Yin Gu Xiang and Gui Dan along the way, and constantly drawing lots.
[Ding, congratulations on obtaining ten Rejuvenation Talismans. ]
[Ding, congratulations on obtaining a Rashomon Talisman. ]
【……】
Jin Banwei still didn't draw the drawing diagram or the talisman paper mastery for those more special talisman papers, but she was content. The lottery panel was almost piled up, but the system was about to be disconnected, and she didn't know where to move these things.
Both of the Tiancanyao backpacks are not enough.
The system must have heard her prayer, as the system prompt sound happened to hit her heart.
[Ding, congratulations on getting the special containment package. ]
【……】
Her things can be moved now.
Jin Banwei deliberately fell behind a little, and when she was waiting to catch up with Guan Jiyue and the others again, she had a white shoulder bag hanging around her waist. It looked small, but its capacity was incredibly large.
Things are moving little by little, and time is slowly shifting.
While they were waiting to find Yan Tao, Yan Tao was in a stalemate with Jiang Fei, who had been caught by her.
Jiang Fei was originally hiding in the dark, but after Yan Tao knew it was her, he mobilized his three souls to find her.
Jiang Fei naturally also felt the dissipation of the formation. She wanted to escape, but all the passages were blocked by Yan Tao, and they were deadlocked in the passage.
Yan Tao's skin was covered with a light red armor, and the delicate pieces of armor seemed to have grown out of her body. There was no anger or rage on that cold face, only calmness. She calmly blocked Jiang Fei's retreat, and under their feet were thousands of suppressed ghost kings.
Red mist was still emitting from Yan Tao's body.
Jiang Fei knew that it was the formation and the underworld that were absorbing her power. Only by continuously absorbing her power in this way could the seals blocking the passages be stable and solid, and the underworld, which was in turmoil at this moment, would not collapse.
It is precisely because she knows the significance of Yan Tao to the Underworld, and also knows that once something happens in the Underworld, Yan Tao will use most of her strength to keep the Underworld running. This is why she dares to attack the Underworld. As long as they fight a protracted war, they will definitely win, but... something unexpected happened.
Jiang Fei's face looked very bad. Of course, Yan Tao's situation was not optimistic at the moment, but it was not because of Jiang Fei, but because of the flames that were still burning around her body.
The flame was dark red with a few black sparks in it. This was the hellfire of the underworld. The punishment for Yan Tao's secret visit to the world to rescue Min Ziyu and forcibly bringing a living person into the underworld had not expired yet.
She is still being burned and tortured by the hellfire.
But even in this situation, Yan Tao was still a mountain that she could hardly push over.
Without the support of the formation, she and Yan Tao could not afford to waste time.
Jiang Fei gritted his teeth and said, "What's the point of you guarding here? No matter how strong you are, your strength will eventually run out..."
She wanted to coax Yan Tao to give way, but Yan Tao already knew everything from Zhong Sui, including the fact that the formation outside had been broken.
Yan Tao stared at Jiang Fei coldly: "You don't have the support of the formation now, do you really think you can still fight a protracted war with me?"
With every word Yan Tao spoke, blood mist would float out from her lips and her voice would tremble with every word, but her body showed no sign of retreating even a single step.
She had still absorbed too much power, and coupled with the erosion of hellfire, it was now hot and painful for her to breathe.
She did not tell Zhong Sui about this situation, but Jiang Fei was floating face to face with her, so how could he not see her predicament.
When being burned by hellfire, every extra strength used would make the fire more fierce. She understood this principle, and Yan Tao should understand it too. Jiang Fei lowered her eyes.
She could no longer conquer the underworld, but maybe she could send Yan Tao to her death, after all, she was getting weaker and weaker.
As long as she disappears, the underworld will collapse, and order will be disrupted. Her goal will be achieved in another way.
Jiang Fei had expectations in her heart, but Yan Tao easily saw through her plan.
Yan Tao looked at Jiang Fei. Most women who were destined to be immortal officials were weak, but she had such a big ambition that she had arisen without anyone noticing.
Yan Tao's body was in great pain. Every inch of her skin was being burned, burned again and again, and regenerated again and again. The pain made her mental strength gradually dissipate. She had never been so embarrassed before. Of course, she did not regret going to rescue Min Ziyu, nor did she regret bringing Zhuo Ning into the underworld.
If Zhuo Ning had not been brought into the underworld, the secret of Hongluo Gu would not have been exposed.
Yan Tao coughed twice and said, "Jiang Fei, just give up. My seven souls will be returned to the underworld before I die. The underworld and the cycle of reincarnation will not be in chaos."
"You really are..." Jiang Fei was a little mad after listening to her words: "Yan Tao, why are you doing this? You protect the world, but no one in the world is grateful to you. They are only afraid of you and stay away from you. Look, even God doesn't help you. You are maintaining reincarnation, but the hellfire is devouring your body. You have been in this boring place for more than 10,000 years. I think you are tired. Stop it. As long as you stop, you can rest immediately."
Yan Tao remained unmoved, and Jiang Fei's face looked even uglier. She did not stop attacking Yan Tao, but the red armor on Yan Tao's body blocked her attacks. All she could do was to make Yan Tao more and more painful, waiting for the hellfire to completely devour her when she lost her strength.
But she actually wanted to merge the seven souls into the underworld.
In that case, the underworld would be equivalent to not losing the Hades and would still rotate normally. As long as the Yin officials under Yan Tao are able to disperse her, the underworld would still rotate at the previous rhythm.
It shouldn't be like this.
Jiang Fei looked at Yan Tao angrily: "You are not the Hades anymore, you can't be high and mighty, why do you care about them! What good is there for the underworld officials to do? You will stay in this world where you can't even see the sunlight for eternity, without love, light, or..."
Yan Tao interrupted her: "Jiang Fei, do you know why I was born and where I came from?"
Jiang Fei didn't want to talk to her about any big principles. She just hated that she couldn't destroy it all. But Yan Tao seemed determined to make it clear to her: "Everything in the world has cause and effect. I came because of the dead, and I should die for the dead."
"Don't make yourself sound so noble. You keep saying you are fair, but you treat Min Ziyu with partiality in private. Is that what you call fairness?"
When Jiang Fei mentioned Min Ziyu, Yan Tao's expression changed for the first time, but she quickly denied Jiang Fei: "No, this is not partiality, this is compensation. If you die for the underworld and are loyal to it..."
"Oh, to put it bluntly, you just like her. Her soul has dissipated, but you helped her to condense her soul again."
Jiang Fei still interrupted her long speech. Yan Tao always talked a lot, so much that it made people impatient to listen to her.
She always has a point, but what is her point?
Yan Tao shook her head: "No, she got these because she is the second Meng Po of the underworld and the first Meng Po after the gods. If she hadn't verified the feasibility of the immortal official's fate, and if she hadn't improved the formula of Meng Po soup, none of you would have become Yin officials."
Yan Tao emphasized dedication to Jiang Fei not because she wanted to defend herself, but because this was the truth.
As Pluto, she may have emotions, but emotions cannot influence her decisions, but merits and contributions can.
The underworld owes Min Ziyu a favor, and not only she has to repay it, but all the officials above the level of the underworld should also repay it.
The reason why she was willing to explain to Jiang Fei was because she had worked in the underworld for hundreds of years. If it was another ghost, she would not waste her words.
Jiang Fei tugged her hair in annoyance: "Enough! In the final analysis, it is you who is biased towards her!"
Yan Tao was no longer obsessed. She pricked up her ears and heard the subtle sound. A strange smell drifted over. A barely visible smile appeared on Yan Tao's lips: "Jiang Fei, did you hear that? The bell rang."
The death knell has sounded.
The power of the immortal bones still needs a living human body, so people who are often restricted in their power and unable to exert it finally have room to display their power. Ren Qiao is unstoppable along the way, killing ghosts and eliminating evil. Guan Jiyue and Jin Banwei, an all-round top warlock and a full-level paper-making master, have no room to display their power.
There was no need to use Ren Qiao's blood to perform any tricks. Ren Qiao directly led them all the way to Jiang Fei.
Jiang Fei and Ren Qiao started fighting. Jiang Fei was really capable as he was able to entangle Ren Qiao. It was amazing that Yan Tao could hold on for such a long time in such a miserable state.
After Jiang Fei left, Yan Tao slowly fell to the ground: "Allies are sometimes reliable enough."
The words were directed to Guan Jiyue and Jin Banwei, but his gaze was fixed on Ren Qiao. Leng Siqing could sense it, and of course she could also sense it, that the immortal bone was that of a living person.
Jin Banwei felt Yan Tao's focused gaze and felt a little uneasy, but fortunately Yan Tao did not stare at Ren Qiao for too long.
She turned her head and looked at Guan Jiyue and Jin Banwei with a smile: "Since you are here, please help."
As her voice fell, her aura subsided, and the ghost kings that were frightened by her power and could not move began to riot again. Guan Jiyue's mouth froze: "Yan Tao, you are really rude."
Yan Tao waved her hands, sat down, and gasped for breath: "I want to be polite, but I don't have the energy anymore."
Jin Banwei and the others did not expect that Yan Tao would end up in such an embarrassing situation, and she got into this situation by herself. It was really... Jiang Fei and the others were probably aware that Yan Tao would be punished for leaving the underworld without permission.
She had been burned by the hellfire like this, but she still had to use her power again and again to stabilize the seal and the underworld. What would be wrong with just not taking action to deal with these ghost kings?
Jin Banwei and Guan Jiyue resigned themselves to their fate and rushed towards the group of ghosts.
"Xiao Jin." Ren Qiao suddenly threw over a white porcelain bottle, which contained her blood.
Jin Banwei's methods can still be used, but the soul control sorcerer's methods are also a bit difficult, so she and Guan Jiyue both have a hard time dealing with these things. Yan Tao endures the pain and joins the battle with great disgust.
She glanced at Guan Jiyue and said, "You really took the power of your ancestors for nothing."
"You are being unreasonable. We are souls now. It is very difficult to use the methods of a sorcerer."
Understandably, I am still disappointed.
Yan Tao glanced at Jin Banwei again, but she did not bully Jin Banwei. Instead, she said, "Min Ziyu is quite heartless in this life."
Jin Banwei could hear that Yan Tao was unhappy that Min Ziyu didn't come. Of course, this was understandable. After all, a big part of the reason why Yan Tao was in this state was because she went up to rescue Min Ziyu. Most of the injuries on her body were caused by the hellfire.
Jin Banwei slapped Yan Tao with the Luo Sheng Na Talisman soaked in Ren Qiao's blood: "She killed Ren Qingxu and was seriously injured. She can't come here."
With the Luoshengna Talisman, Yan Tao's breath was slightly better, but she still coughed non-stop: "Cough... I can still distinguish right from wrong."
Why is it that when it comes to Min Ziyu, he starts praising her.
This Pluto is a bit double-standard.
Jin Banwei secretly complained in her heart, but as time passed, the final prompt sound of the system echoed.
[Ding, there are ten minutes left before the system is disconnected, the lottery speed is accelerated. ]
Jin Banwei opened the panel and took a look. There was still a lot of good karma value left. Moreover, because they had rescued many ghost soldiers along the way, the good karma value was still increasing, and a countdown clock appeared on the panel.
The turntable was spinning frantically, and the system was eager to help her use up all her good karma.
Jin Banwei could barely see the turntable, and she asked in a hoarse voice, "Are these good karma points of no use to you at all?"
After she reached the maximum level, the system's speech was not so dull anymore.
[System: Host, do you want to spend 50,000 good karma points to help the system improve its performance? ]
…
It turns out that this good karma value can be used. It turns so fast that Jin Banwei thought it didn't care about this good karma value at all.
Although the system will no longer follow her, her performance upgrades should make it better.
Jin Banwei glanced at Ren Qiao who was dealing with Jiang Fei, and then looked at Guan Jiyue. Unknowingly, she had a lover and a reliable family.
Guan Jiyue said that she was grateful, so she should also repay the system that brought happiness to her: "Yes, upgrade the performance."
[System: Ding, system performance upgrade completed, system is disengaging. ]
【System: Ding, system disengagement completed.】
it's over.
Jin Banwei could feel the mechanical thoughts in her mind dissipating. She thought it was over, but suddenly a voice rang in her ears: "Host, please live a good life with your ghost wife."
A string of characters quickly disappeared before my eyes.
It seems that the performance has been upgraded, it has become smarter, and it has even learned to say goodbye.
Of course she will live a good life, everything here is almost what she once dreamed of, although it is full of ghosts and crises, the emotions are strong and sincere.
Jin Banwei likes many people here, especially Ren Qiao.
Although I have already said it, I still want to say it one last time: "Thank you."
