Ji Chengcheng followed Lan Zhi's gaze, then covered her mouth with her two little paws and whispered, "Oh my God, this is too cruel and terrible..."
Lan Zhi's face was odd, because she felt that the tongue-pulling scene was similar to a folk tale she had heard. It was said that people would be reincarnated after death, but those who committed many evil deeds would suffer in the underworld until they had atoneed for their sins and could be reincarnated...
However, what Lan Zhi heard was just a legend. After all, she had never seen it with her own eyes. But the structure of the underground of Chihu City seemed a bit similar to the legendary underworld. The reason why it was said to be "a bit similar" was because the conditions here were too simple.
Lan Zhi withdrew her gaze and looked down at the river on both sides of the bridge. She walked very slowly along the way. The people in black cloaks were probably bored and chatted while walking, without urging her. Even if Lan Zhi stood still, they would wait behind her patiently.
Suddenly, a strong wind blew overhead. Lan Zhi looked up and saw a group of black cloaks flying past her head. These cloaks were wrapped in layers of chains to form a large oval cocoon. The cocoon was very tight and there didn't seem to be any gaps. Lan Zhi asked curiously, "Are they escorting some treasure?"
Someone in a black cloak behind her said, "No... not... treasure..."
Another black-cloaked figure added, "It's... a... disobedient... spirit..."
Lan Zhi said "Oh" and continued walking forward. She entered the Judgment Hall and found that the hall was very large, but there were few furniture inside, so it looked empty. There was a black table and a black chair in front of her, and a handsome man was sitting on the chair.
The man looked to be about twenty years old, with regular features, expressionless face, and quite majestic. His pupils were a cold black, a black that had a thick and cold texture, as if it could suck away a person's soul, leaving them gloomy and silent.
There was a portrait on the wall behind the man. The person in the portrait was him, and there were four big words written next to the figure: Tiansheng Chihu.
It seems that he is the master of the entire secret realm.
In front of Lan Zhi was a group of people in black cloaks with "big cocoons". Some of them had retracted their chains, revealing the top of the "big cocoon".
Lan Zhi was very brave and had no idea of being a prisoner. She walked to the side of the cocoon and found that the other party was a handsome uncle with a handsome face. However, the uncle was tightly wrapped in chains below his neck, with only his head exposed. His expression was very angry and humiliated.
The handsome uncle glanced at Lan Zhi and saw that she was also in chains. He stopped looking at her and instead looked coldly at the Tiansheng Red Lake in front of him and asked, "What do you want to do to me?"
Tiansheng Chihu's eyebrows were cold and his expression was calm. In front of him were brushes, ink, paper and inkstone. Tiansheng Chihu picked up the brush and wrote on the paper as he said, "You have killed nine messengers from the underworld and seriously injured thirteen. Your sins are grave. You shall be punished by having your tongue pulled out for twenty-two years. Only after your sentence is completed can you be reincarnated."
"You're the one! You're just a broken secret realm, and you dare to call yourself the underworld? How ridiculous!" The handsome uncle knew he couldn't escape, so he just let himself go and cursed at Tiansheng Chihu. "You old immortal! Other people's secret realms are full of natural treasures, but yours is a pit! You've killed so many people, and you still want to create the six reincarnations? Pah! I think your soul will be torn apart soon!"
The last few words seemed to touch Tiansheng Chihu's reverse scale. He slammed the table and stood up, his eyes burning with rage, and his cold black pupils flashed with a strange and frightening luster.
"presumptuous!"
All the black cloaks knelt on the ground, "Master... please calm down."
Tiansheng Chihu simply couldn't calm down, his life would soon come to an end. He thought back to when he was a genius, both a spiritual master and a soul master, and he had cultivated to the Chengyuan realm at the age of fifteen. He thought he would cultivate all the way to the strongest realm, but after the age of fifteen, his spiritual master cultivation had never improved. No matter what method he used, his realm stagnated at the Chengyuan realm. For this reason, Tiansheng Chihu did not hesitate to kill millions of people, trying to lead himself into the path of evil with the blood and resentment of countless people, but what made him despair was that even after killing so many lives, he still could not switch to practicing magic.
The lifespan of a Chengyuan realm cultivator is one thousand years. If one encounters a catastrophe in the middle of the lifespan, he may die before reaching one thousand years. However, Tiansheng Chihu was very lucky. He lived for a full thousand years before his body completely died. After his death, his soul floated out.
Tiansheng Chihu's previous soul master talent was relatively weak. His soul could only live for a maximum of two hundred years away from his body before he would completely die. But for some reason, after his body was cremated, his soul seemed to have been activated, and his soul power increased rapidly. In just thirty years, Tiansheng Chihu used his soul power to condense a new body, becoming the strongest soul master of that era. However, Tiansheng Chihu did not have the subsequent skills, so his soul could only live for a maximum of 50,000 years before he would completely die.
In pursuit of immortality, Tiansheng Chihu began to build a secret realm. He wanted to shape this secret realm into an independent and complete world.
In this world, he is the way of heaven, the supreme god.
Tiansheng Chihu's ultimate goal is to create cause and effect reincarnation. In this way, even if his soul reaches the end of its lifespan, he can pass through the reincarnation path in the secret realm and be "reincarnated" as a baby with all his memories. He will start his cultivation from the beginning. If his talent in this life is not good, he can continue to reincarnate with his memories after death, and continue to reincarnate until he truly cultivates to the realm of immortality.
Tiansheng Chihu’s idea is good, but how easy is it to create a world?
It took him nearly 50,000 years to turn this secret realm into what it is today. Strictly speaking, the secret world has not yet been built, but he has no time. Tiansheng Chihu counted on his fingers and found that he only had 30 years left to live. If the reincarnation path in the secret realm is not completed within these 30 years, then he will be completely finished.
Thus, the secret realm of Tiansheng Red Lake was opened.
In order to lure more practitioners in, Tiansheng Chihu first released a lot of pills, and then released the first batch of practitioners who came in. It was like fishing, where the bait was spread out and the fishes were just waiting to fall into the trap.
The secret realm of Tiansheng Red Lake has multiple entrances, covering the entire continent. Small countries like Da Rui Kingdom originally had no entrance, but Qingyan was born here, which happened to attract the ferocious beast Zhutong to stay in the mountains for many days. Tiansheng Red Lake has always liked to collect ferocious beasts, so it also placed a door leading to the secret realm in Baishan.
