"Di Zhi, let me ask you, do you have any idea how to get out of this big deep pit?" He looked at him and asked directly.
Di Zhi smiled confidently and answered immediately without hesitation, "Yes!"
When everyone heard his answer, they all felt anticipation.
Zhang Meng couldn't hide her happy smile as she looked at him and continued to ask, "Really? What's the solution? Tell me quickly!"
Di Zhi smiled lightly, and said with a cynical attitude, "If I tell you, can you tell me what benefits I will get?"
Zhang Meng was stunned, and glared at him for several seconds with her eyes rolled back. Finally, seeing that he looked nonchalant, Zhang Meng gritted her teeth and said, "I'll make your Mind-Concentrating Pill for you when I get back this time. Is that okay?"
This guy who took advantage of the situation, if she gets a chance to take revenge in the future, let's see how she will do it.
Di Zhi smiled softly, "Isn't this what you have always promised me? This one doesn't look like it. I want another one."
Zhang Meng grabbed her hair anxiously when she heard this. "Then I can't imagine what benefit you want. If you have one, just say it directly. You're keeping me guessing. I can't guess it. I'm not a worm in your stomach."
Di Zhi's face flushed instantly, and then he coughed lightly, "Well, then I'll be frank. Apart from the Soul-Concentrating Pill, any pills you make in the future, as long as you have any, you must give me some, and you can't accept any conditions from me!"
Zhang Meng was furious after hearing this. "You're taking advantage of the situation, you bandit! Bandit!"
Di Zhi smiled calmly and said, "If you don't agree, I won't force you. Just rack your brains and think of a way to dig out of this big pit!"
"You..." Zhang Meng gritted her teeth in anger and cursed him as a despicable villain countless times in her heart.
"Do you want to agree?" Di Zhi looked at him calmly and asked.
Zhang Meng gnashed her two rows of teeth until they made a clattering sound. Then she looked down at the huge pit beside her. It was bottomless and she had no idea how deep it was.
"Okay, I promise you."
It’s just sacrificing a few pills. It’s nothing. She can afford it.
Di Zhi immediately laughed loudly, "It's a deal." Zhang Meng felt it was irritating to hear his laughter. It seemed to be telling her that she was ashamed to be threatened by this monster.
"Alright, alright, I've already agreed to your request. When are you going to let us get down into this deep pit?" Zhang Meng interrupted his devilish laughter unhappily.
Di Zhi suppressed his smug smile, coughed calmly, and said, "All of you gather around me!"
"What are you doing?" Zhang Meng stared at him with suspicion.
"Do you know how deep this pit is?" Di Zhi asked.
Zhang Meng curled her lips, "If I knew how deep it was, would I still agree to your unreasonable request?"
Di Zhi smiled helplessly, "Zhang Meng, you will find out later that the condition you agreed to is actually not a loss for you at all."
"Let me tell you, this deep pit is connected to the underworld. In other words, this pit is as deep as the underworld." As soon as Di Zhi finished speaking, he saw these people's faces change.
Zhang Meng suddenly remembered the method they used to go to the underworld last time. She immediately looked at Di Zhi, "Do you have any jade beads on you?"
When they went to the underworld, they relied on the jade beads to get there.
Di Zhi laughed loudly, "You underestimate me too much. You humans need Jade Beads if you want to go to the underworld, but I am an ancient demon beast, so I naturally don't need such a thing!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the corners of his mouth curved up, revealing a confident smile, "Everyone stand still. Next, I will begin the ritual!"
Before Zhang Meng and the others could react to what he meant, they suddenly saw him chanting a mysterious spell.
After a while, Zhang Meng noticed a dazzling white light rising from the ground where they were standing.
Immediately afterwards, the ground beneath their feet seemed to be empty, and their bodies kept falling down.
"If you are afraid, close your eyes. When the time comes, I will ask you to open your eyes."
Zhang Meng was about to say no when suddenly a hand lifted her head onto his chest. Then she heard Gu Mingtai's voice in her ear, "Lie on me, so you won't be too scared."
Zhang Meng opened her mouth, wanting to tell him that she was not afraid, but when she looked up and saw his concerned eyes looking at her, she swallowed the words and buried her head in his chest again.
She didn't remember how long they fell under the white light. She only knew that when Di Zhi's voice sounded in her ears and she opened her eyes from Gu Mingtai's arms, they were already standing on solid ground.
"Why is it so gloomy here!" Wang Qingliu looked around, tightened his clothes, and asked a little nervously.
"This is outside the underworld, so it's naturally gloomy. Do you want it to be like the world of the living, with bright sunshine, singing birds and fragrant flowers?" Di Zhi's words sounded a little disdainfully.
Zhang Meng raised her head and glanced at the ceiling. Faintly, she seemed to see a little white light. If she guessed correctly, that white light should be the sunlight in the world of the living.
It's just that because this place is too deep, I can only see a little bit.
"What should we do now?" Zhang Meng looked up at Gu Mingtai beside her and asked.
"I just looked around and there are no ghosts outside. What we need to do now is to use the ghost-killing formation to seal this cave entrance before it gets dark and the ghosts in the underworld have not awakened yet." Gu Mingtai said.
Zhang Meng nodded and immediately took out more than twenty pieces of talisman paper from his pocket and handed them to Wang Qingliu and Ye Shiping. "Please help me and stick these talismans on the edge of the cave entrance. We have to hurry, as it's not long before dark."
Wang Qingliu took the talisman paper and nodded to Ye Shiping, then immediately began to stick the talisman paper on the edge of the cave entrance.
As soon as Wang Qingliu and Ye Shiping were done, Gu Mingtai immediately tore off a small flag with ancient formation characters written on it and stuck it into the ground. Then he sat cross-legged in front of the flag and began to recite the ghost-killing formation.
When the young couple first went to the Mayi Sect, they found out that the sect's formation was actually completed with a small flag.
When the old man handed the small flag to them, he specifically stated that they must return the flag after using it.
After a while, the small flag in front of Gu Mingtai slowly flew into the air.
Along with the incantation from Gu Mingtai's mouth, it seemed as if strings of words flew onto the small flag in the air.
