Chapter 189 Finale
The moment Xie Fei stepped into the underworld that was transformed from the long river of time, he felt a fluctuation almost instantly. It was the vibration of the protective barrier he had placed on the real underworld before the last battle between immortals and demons.
This kind of fluctuation that made him extremely repulsive could only be caused by people from the demon and monster worlds.
It seems that they have found the real underworld hidden by their master, and have organized people to start the attack.
At the same time, the communication talisman that Hou Tu had given him before vibrated. It turned out that his master had already returned to the Heaven with his father-in-law and was mobilizing forces from all sides. Since Xie Fei was the current master of the underworld, his master told him to prepare for a counterattack as soon as he returned.
Xie Fei hurriedly replied to the message, and then went to find Hou Tu and Wei Jingwan.
In the cave, Wei Jingwan was lying flat on the bed with her eyes closed. There was a faint glow around her body. Hou Tu was sitting cross-legged about two meters away from the bed. At this time, invisible spiritual power was output from her palms, spreading out in waves around her.
Seeing Xie Fei, Hou Tu's frown relaxed a little: "You are finally back, come and give me a hand."
As she spoke, she waved her long sleeves very quickly, and a white jade bottle fell into Xie Fei's palm: "The demon and monster worlds have already begun to attack, time waits for no one, this last bit of soul power that has just been refined cannot wait for Wan'er to slowly absorb and integrate it, the secret method must be activated."
"Okay." Xie Fei stepped forward and asked, "What should I do?"
"Transfer the soul power into my body, and I will use secret methods to merge it with Wan'er's three souls and seven spirits." Hou Tu said.
Upon hearing this, Xie Fei didn't say anything more. He immediately sat down cross-legged and started to act.
Even so, it took almost a month. Fortunately, they were in the long river of time, and only two days had actually passed outside. Otherwise, by the time they were done, the war between immortals and demons might have been over.
Not long after Xie Fei and Hou Tu stopped, Wei Jingwan slowly woke up with sleepy eyes. She looked at Xie Fei innocently, blinking blankly: "You're back..."
"Yeah." Xie Fei nodded, staring at her closely, "How do you feel? Are you feeling any discomfort?"
Wei Jingwan then realized that something seemed to be different about herself. She frowned, moved her body, and looked at the two of them in confusion.
After a while, under the somewhat nervous gazes of Xie Fei and the others, she smiled with the corners of her lips slightly raised: "Hey, I seem to have fully recovered. The blockage in my meridians before has completely disappeared, and the sense of loss in my soul seems to have disappeared. I feel like a brand new person."
Hou Tu finally breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "That's good. This soul repair secret method is the first time I've used it, and it seems to be working very well."
Xie Fei's tight heart relaxed, a smile flashed across his eyes, and he was about to speak, but at this moment, he sensed a greater fluctuation, and his eyebrows couldn't help but twitch a few times the next second.
Without bothering to talk about other things, Xie Fei turned his head and looked at Hou Tu, his expression was unprecedentedly serious and solemn: "Master's Wife, please withdraw the illusion. The demon world and the demon world have already launched an attack on the underworld. The protective barrier can only hold on for a while. We must rush to the underworld immediately to gather forces to support my master and the people in heaven. We must not let the demons break into the underworld before then, the consequences will be..."
Unimaginable.
The demons and monsters have been searching for the underworld at all costs, and now they want to attack the underworld by force. The reason is that there are so many souls in the underworld.
No matter whether they are human, demon, monster, or immortal, no matter whether they are going to be reincarnated, come down to earth to experience tribulations, or die of natural causes or are killed, they will all go to the underworld, and most of their three souls and seven spirits will be taken back to the underworld.
These souls will automatically transform into good ghosts, evil ghosts or evil ghosts for different reasons.
Previously, when Xie Fei contacted his master Xie Mingyuan through the communication talisman, he learned that during the time when the demons and monsters were recuperating in the underworld and heaven, they had obtained an evil magic from somewhere. Using this evil magic, they secretly cultivated a monster called the Black Kirin that could suck the souls of living people.
In order for this monster to grow, it must use evil spirits and ghosts as food, so the underworld bears the brunt and becomes the target of both the demon world and the evil spirit world.
"I understand." Hou Tu immediately understood what he said. She nodded solemnly and waved her hand to remove the illusion.
Xie Fei followed closely behind, casting a spell to reopen the entrance and exit of the river of time. Then he hugged Wei Jingwan and jumped out, and at the same time flew quickly towards the underworld. Hou Tu also followed and flew up.
Xie Fei held Wei Jingwan in one hand and made a gesture with the other hand. The fairy platform surrounded by the light blue airflow quickly spun and shrank. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a hand-sized Ryukyu and slowly fell into his palm. There were lines on its surface flowing like a river.
…
About a quarter of an hour later, I could faintly hear the boiling noise, the collision of swords and spears, and the sound of the clash of magic.
Xie Fei and the other two stopped in mid-air, looking at the duel in the distance with solemn expressions.
Powerful force waves spread in all directions, and the surrounding rocks and earth were all reduced to ashes. It roared out with overwhelming force, making a deafening sound, shaking the earth and mountains within a radius of ten miles.
Cracks were faintly visible in the protective barrier above the underworld, the spiritual power contained in it gradually dissipated, and the hazy yellowish light became dimmer.
Xie Fei looked up at the sky covered with dark clouds, as if a vortex was slowly gathering.
Hou Tu's eyes were filled with worry, and her tone was heavier than ever before: "Another catastrophe, I wonder if we will be the ones standing to the end..."
"Since ancient times, good has always prevailed over evil. We will definitely win!" Wei Jingwan nodded heavily, then turned to look at Xie Fei, "Right, husband?"
Xie Fei smiled and touched her head: "Well, as long as we work together, there is nothing we can't do."
Hou Tu also laughed when she heard this: "I had forgotten that you two have already practiced the Lingxi Yuantong technique to perfection."
It seems that they are capable of fighting against both the demon and monster worlds, even if they used evil magic to cultivate the monster Black Kirin.
Thinking of the Black Kirin, Hou Tu couldn't help but frowned again and asked, "Aren't we going over yet? What are you waiting for?"
Xie Fei did not answer. He put his hands behind his back, his eyes still staring at that place without blinking, a dark look in his black pupils.
I don’t know how long it took, but finally, a melee broke out between the immortals and demons in the distance, and only a small number of demons with medium cultivation were still attacking the barrier of the underworld.
Sand and rocks were flying everywhere, and the world was in chaos. Xie Fei slowly raised the corner of his mouth. The opportunity he had been waiting for finally came.
Xie Fei bit his finger, used blood as a pen and breath as paper, and drew a breath-suppressing talisman in two or three strokes and slapped it on the three people: "The demons and monsters are now fighting with my master and the people in the heaven. Although they have a slight advantage, they don't have the extra energy to defend themselves. With my top-grade breath-suppressing talisman and the illusion of my master's wife, I believe we can definitely enter the underworld quietly."
Hou Tu lowered her eyes in thought, then nodded after a moment. In such a chaotic situation, it was entirely possible for the three of them to sneak into the underworld without noticing anything.
"How about we gather strength secretly, take the demon world and the monster world by surprise, and attack Master and the others from the front and back?" Xie Fei asked with a smile.
After the words fell, Wei Jingwan was the first to nod her head excitedly, repeating "OK, OK, OK, I like it" repeatedly. Hou Tu couldn't help but brighten her eyes and agreed with a smile: "Very good."
The three of them hit it off immediately and entered the underworld smoothly.
Before entering the underworld, Xie Fei looked up at the two people, Mo Xing and Yao Ming, who were fighting with the people in the heaven, and said slowly: "I am back."
…
While Xie Mingyuan was fighting with the Demon Lord Cangtong from the Demon Realm, Wei Jingwan's father, Emperor Qingxiao, was also fighting fiercely with the Demon Saint Feijiu from the Demon Realm.
Not far from them, there were some people fighting in pairs, or in small groups of three or five.
Although the sand and rocks were flying and the ground was shaking, a closer look revealed that none of the people on both the immortal and demon sides were trying their best. But at the same time, they were deliberately controlling themselves during the fight, always paying attention to the changes of their opponents and thus changing their offensives, so that the other side would not dare to interfere in the fight between others or provide support.
People from both sides are waiting. Will the demons and monsters break through the barrier of the underworld first, or will Xie Fei and his two companions lead the people from the underworld to come and provide support first?
Of course, waiting is not just a simple waiting. Wei Jingwan’s mother, Empress Yu Ling, is currently leading the rest of the people in Heaven to fight against the subordinates from the demon world and the monster world.
Empress Yu Ling held the zither in one hand and plucked the strings quickly with the other hand. Invisible zither blades flew through the air from her hands. The rest of the people formed a team around her, brandishing swords, spears, and halberds, and showing all kinds of trump cards.
Even though there was the help of Emperor Yu Ling and Empress Yu Ling's Nine-Stringed Lute, the people in the demon and monster worlds far outnumbered those in heaven. In the end, they could only hold on with difficulty, delaying the pace of the demon and monster worlds' attack on the underworld's barrier.
As time passed, Empress Yu Ling's zither strings could no longer bear the weight and began to break one after another. The pressure on everyone in Heaven suddenly increased, and one after another began to show signs of fatigue, and the demons and monsters completely gained the upper hand.
Seeing this situation, Demon Lord Cangtong and Demon Saint Feijiu, who had been paying close attention to this side, laughed out loud in unison.
Demon Lord Cangtong smiled as he looked at Xie Mingyuan, who had a solemn expression on his face: "Divine Lord Hanling, it seems that I, the demon world and I, have won this bet. I advise you to save your energy and think about how to escape later!"
“That’s right!” The Flying Eagle Demon Saint echoed, “Emperor Qingxiao, I see that all of you in the Heavenly Court are at the end of your strength, so don’t try to be brave. If you stop now, I will remember our past friendship and maybe I will leave your bodies intact…”
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Emperor Qingxiao. In the chaotic world, only his deep and steady voice could be heard: "Everyone in the Heavenly Court, listen to my order. Swear to suppress the people from the demon and monster worlds. This emperor will live and die with you!"
"The fight with the demons will not stop until one of us dies! The fight will not stop until one of us dies!" The next moment, the voices of everyone in Heaven gathered from all directions and resounded throughout the heavens and earth.
The firm will in the voice actually mobilized the power of heaven and earth. The foreheads of Demon Lord Cangtong and Demon Saint Feijiu suddenly began to beat "thump thump". Alarm bells rang in their hearts, and they loudly ordered the people from the two worlds of demons and monsters to speed up the pace of attacking the underworld, no matter what the cost.
At the same time, Demon Lord Cangtong, Demon Saint Feijiu and others no longer held back and attacked frantically like a storm.
The demons from both worlds launched a full-scale offensive, and Xie Mingyuan, Emperor Qingxiao and others also fought with all their might. The two sides were evenly matched, and it was difficult to tell the winner for a while.
However, the group of people led by Emperor Yu Ling and Empress Yu Ling below were almost powerless to resist, as the people from the demon and monster worlds surrounded them and gradually approached them.
Just when Empress Yu Ling was about to use her last forbidden technique, she suddenly heard two long beeps coming from the barrier of the underworld not far away.
When everyone heard the sound, they looked up and saw two figures flying out from the underworld. The demons and people surrounding the underworld were blown away by the airflow. Amid the fierce sand and rocks, they stirred up a gust of wind, which made their scales and feathers, which were as red as fire, look extremely brilliant.
The two figures circled in the air and made long calls. Everyone looked up and saw their faces clearly - they were the legendary Flame Dragon and Red Phoenix.
Under everyone's surprised gaze, the Flame Dragon and the Red Phoenix landed one after another.
The blazing flames they brought out devoured all the demons and people around the underworld. Amidst the red light, heart-wrenching screams were heard.
But in a moment, most of them were killed or injured, and the rest fled in fear, not daring to get any closer.
Seeing this, Hou Tu smiled and said, "The Flame Dragon and the Red Phoenix are indeed holy beasts that feed on karma. The power of the karma fire they transform is so great." She paused here and sighed with some regret, "It's a pity that they were seriously injured in the Five Realms War a thousand years ago. Even though they followed Xie Fei and Wan'er to recuperate for another eight hundred years in the long river of time, they still haven't recovered. Otherwise, they would have been a great help..."
It was not until this time that everyone noticed Xie Fei and others standing on the Flame Dragon Chifeng. Wei Jingwan was still jumping and waving, saying with a smile: "Father, Mother! Wan'er is back!"
At this critical moment, when they suddenly saw Xie Fei and the people from the underworld appear, Xie Mingyuan and others almost couldn't help crying for joy, and the others were even more cheered up.
Although the support from within the underworld was different from the external support that had been agreed upon before, the result was good enough, not to mention that this unexpected move not only caused heavy damage to the demon world, but also greatly relieved the pressure on the rest of the people in heaven. Even Xie Fei's appearance now meant that he had settled the underworld and would no longer have any worries. It could be said that he killed several birds with one stone.
Xie Fei smiled and glanced at Wei Jingwan who was jumping and dancing, then bowed his head and saluted to everyone, saying: "Master, Xie Fei is late and made you worried. Are father-in-law and mother-in-law in good health? Wan'er and I have returned safely."
Xie Mingyuan laughed and stroked his beard twice: "Not too late, not too late. You have always been cautious in doing things, and with your master's wife's help, I am very relieved."
Emperor Qingxiao and Empress Yuling also smiled and nodded, the solemnity in their eyes dissipated a lot: "We are fine, and it's even better to see you."
As if he couldn't bear to see their warm conversation, Demon Lord Cangtong snorted and interrupted, "Let's talk about whether it's good or not later. It depends on whether you are still alive."
Xie Mingyuan glanced at him, murderous intent in his eyes: "Oh? In that case, I will accompany you to the end today!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he slammed out with his palm, and the Demon Lord Cangtong returned his palm to meet it. With a "bang", the heaven and earth shook.
It was like a signal. The others also attacked one after another. Their attacks were fierce and powerful like lightning. Every move was aimed at the fatal point. The fight between them was as fast and fierce as a storm.
The Demon Saint Feijiu and the Emperor Qingxiao were fighting each other and were at a stalemate. They both felt their arms swollen and numb, so they had to leap back a few steps at the same time.
When the two were in a stalemate, the Flying Eagle Demon Saint quietly touched the jade belt behind his waist with his right hand behind his back, and a bead filled with a sinister and gloomy aura appeared in his hand.
“How dare you!” Seeing that the situation was not good, Emperor Qingxiao stepped forward and reached out to grab it.
The Flying Eagle Demon Saint spun around, clenched his left fist to resist, and with his right hand he crushed the beads and threw them towards the underworld.
With a "crack", the beads hit the ground and shattered, and in the blink of an eye two giant monsters appeared. They were pitch black all over, covered with purple-black scales, had ferocious looks, and made "ho ho" sounds in their throats with saliva flowing from the corners of their mouths.
"Black Qilin, go find your food quickly!" said the Flying Eagle Demon Saint with a laugh.
The people fighting below were suddenly horrified. Although they had never seen a black unicorn, it was rumored that it could suck the souls of living people.
Xie Fei's eyes sank slightly when he heard this, but he calmed down in an instant and said to everyone calmly: "This black unicorn has not yet been cultivated to perfection. Now it can only absorb the souls of ordinary people."
As he said this, he looked at Empress Yu Ling and said, "Please ask Empress Yu Ling to lead them to avoid the Black Kirin and stop the people from the demon and monster worlds from the periphery."
"Okay." Emperor and Empress Yu Ling nodded, and with a few orders, they led the people from Heaven and Hell to retreat to the periphery.
Xie Fei then turned to look at the Ten Kings of Hell guarding the underworld and said, "The Black Kirin is cultivated with evil magic. Evil spirits and evil ghosts are its best nutrients. You must defend the underworld to the death and never let the Black Kirin in."
After giving the order, he looked at Hou Tu again: "Master's Wife, please use your soul secrets to assist the Ten Kings of Hell in suppressing the souls. At the same time, the Flame Dragon Chifeng has its own karmic fire, which can fight against the Black Kirin. However, their old injuries have not healed yet, and we still need your support and help."
"Don't worry. With your sister here, I will never let even a single soul escape from the underworld, and the Black Kirin won't be able to absorb even a single bit of nutrients!" Hou Tu said word by word with a frivolous smile and narrowed her eyes.
"Wan'er will also need Master's wife to take care of her." Xie Fei said as he pushed Wei Jingwan to Hou Tu's side. Then he turned his head to look at the five people in front of him who were barely able to survive the beating by Mo Xing Patriarch and Yao Ming, and said slowly, "As for me, I still have some personal matters to deal with."
As soon as he finished speaking, he put his hands behind his back, tiptoed lightly and flew into the air. In a flash, he appeared in front of the five people. A folding fan flew out from his sleeve and unfolded with a "swish", blocking the combined attack of Old Ancestor Mo Xing and Yao Ming.
The five men had already decided to die, but they didn't feel any pain for a long time. They could even hear the "bang bang" sounds of fighting. They opened their eyes hesitantly, and saw Xie Fei's back, who looked so tall.
"Are you all okay?" Xie Fei turned his head and glanced at a few people.
The five people who survived the afterlife were a little dazed. When they heard the question, they suddenly reacted and said with relief and excitement: "Thank you, Lord Yaoguang, we are fine."
"That's good. You go help others and leave this to me." Xie Fei nodded.
The five of them bowed together and left. The old man Mo Xing and Yao Ming on the opposite side were stunned for a moment and then laughed.
"How are you, Yaoguang-kun?" Yaoming licked the blood on the sharp nails with his tongue. "I didn't expect that we would meet again so soon. It seems that Yaoguang-kun has recovered well."
Xie Fei ignored him, grabbed the folding fan that flew back and put it away, then asked slowly and solemnly: "Are you going to fight in turns or all at once?"
After saying this, he flipped his right hand, and a long sword with a cold and sharp light slowly appeared in his hand.
Ancestor Mo Xing sneered, pointed his Nine Divine Rings broadsword at Xie Fei and said, "What a big tone! Let's see if you have the ability to do it!"
After saying that, the three of them attacked almost at the same time. After the sound of sharp blades breaking through the air, there was a "clang" sound, and the loud sound of fists and palms swinging and colliding.
Xie Fei stabbed left and right with his long sword, counterattacked with his fists and palms, and occasionally threw out a folding fan to disrupt the opponent. As a result, the three of them fought evenly for a while.
They countered each other's moves and exchanged hundreds of moves in a short period of time. With a tentative intention, the Demon Xing Patriarch and the Demon Saint looked at each other secretly and could not help but be surprised that after just eighty years of not seeing each other, not only did Xie Fei's injuries heal, but his cultivation level also improved a lot!
After dozens of moves, the two men retreated several steps together.
Ancestor Mo Xing took out two bracelets from his arms and put them on his hands. These rings are of the same lineage as the Nine God Rings on the broadsword. Wearing them will increase the power of the broadsword by nearly 30%.
At the same time, Yao Mingya took out his magic weapon, the Wei Xi Di, which was famous for disturbing people's minds and confusing their brains. Only those with strong mental strength could be immune to it.
The next moment, the two of them pounced on Xie Fei together. Under their full-strength attack, Xie Fei was somewhat overwhelmed. Although he was only slightly at a disadvantage, he felt his arms and hands were slightly numb from the shock. If he didn't end the battle quickly, he would...
Yao Ming and the other man also noticed this, and after a cold laugh they intensified their attack. Xie Fei concentrated on responding, not daring to be careless.
However, at this moment, a faint flute sound was heard, and Xie Fei was in a trance, and the sword in his hand paused. Although he quickly came to his senses, it was too late for him to fight back against the attack, nor did he have time to dodge.
At this critical moment, Xie Fei, who was originally prepared to take the knife head-on, suddenly felt a flash of light like lightning passing by. With a "clang" sound, the attack of the big knife was deflected by a blue sword.
Xie Fei turned his head and saw Wei Jingwan standing side by side with him, with a smile on her face. She snorted with some pride: "What do you think, husband? I'm awesome, right?"
Xie Fei was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and said solemnly: "Thank you, Madam, for saving me. I am deeply grateful."
"It's a piece of cake!" Wei Jingwan laughed, "By the way, Sister Hou Tu asked us to use the Lingxi Yuantong technique to deal with the enemy."
Xie Fei nodded in understanding, he was indeed no match for the two of them.
At this time, Wei Jingwan snorted at the two people opposite: "You demons are so shameless. You can't beat my husband, so you use two against one, right? Now I come to help my husband, let's see how rampant you can be!"
Yao Ming and the other two could tell at a glance that Wei Jingwan’s cultivation was lower than theirs, so they just snorted when they heard her and didn’t take her seriously. But after they actually fought, they found that something was fishy. They looked like ordinary moves and techniques, but as long as Xie Fei and Wei Jingwan combined their swords, the power increased exponentially, it was incredibly powerful!
The combined counterattack of Mo Xing Laozu and Yao Ming was also defeated. One was hit by two swords in the abdomen and the other was hit by one sword in the chest.
They covered their wounds and retreated hastily, while Yaoming was still blowing the flute as he ran away. However, he didn't know that the flute sound would not have much impact on them, because the nine reincarnations in the long river of time had already trained their mental powers to perfection.
Xie Fei and Wei Jingwan's attacks became more and more fierce and fierce. Yao Ming and the other two found it difficult to resist. They wanted to escape but couldn't, and they wanted to ask for help but couldn't find anyone.
In their haste, they made many stupid moves, and as they listened to the sound of the sword breaking through the air so close to their ears, cold sweat rolled down their foreheads. At this moment, Old Ancestor Mo Xing and Yao Ming only felt a flash of silver light before their eyes. Before they could open their mouths to say anything, they felt a pain in their necks, and blood spurted out.
The two men covered their necks with their hands, blood oozing out from between their fingers. They stared at Xie Fei and Wei Jingwan, and died one after another after two "ugh" sounds.
Upon seeing this, people from both the demon and monster worlds immediately became panicked, while people from heaven and hell cheered and pursued the enemy.
Xie Fei saw that Emperor and Empress Yu Ling flew forward to help Emperor Qingxiao, and Xie Mingyuan was gaining the upper hand in the battle with Demon Lord Cangtong, so he took Wei Jingwan with him to assist the others.
After an unknown amount of time, the Demon Lord and the Demon Saint died one after another. The power of the two black unicorns was suddenly greatly reduced, and they were finally killed by everyone's combined efforts. The demons were leaderless and fled in all directions like a pile of loose sand, but most of them were caught up by people from heaven and hell, and only a small part escaped.
In this great war, both the demon and monster worlds suffered heavy losses. Although they still have ancestors who are in seclusion or living in seclusion, it will take at least ten thousand years for them to recover.
