For several days, Mu Yu was thinking about what Wanwan said that day. Deadwood never stepped out of the small yard again, obviously he was too glued to Wanwan. After resting for a few days, Kumu finally mentioned the matter about Styx.
"You must be careful when separating the life and death energy of the Styx. Don't let the death energy spread, otherwise there will be unpredictable consequences." Feng Haochen said seriously.
Xie Bu Lao often came over to join in the fun these days. He knew that Mu Yu planned to use Mingcao to treat Feng Haochen's injuries. He surprisingly did not object and said: "Don't worry about it so much. If something happens to Death Qi, I will help you cover it. It's really If it doesn’t work, I’ll find a way to throw it to the next level.”
"Don't forget the lesson of the First Level." Feng Haochen is not the kind of person who does things without considering the consequences.
"First Heaven? What happened to the First Heaven?" Mu Yu knew that there were third and second heavens, which meant there was one, and there were even fourth and fifth heavens, but he had never heard of the second heaven before. and things beyond the third heaven.
"It's very simple. The first level of the sky was destroyed by the underworld grass." Xie Bulao said nonchalantly.
"What!" Mu Yu looked at the Styx Grass in his hand and was startled, almost throwing it to the ground.
The first layer of heaven was destroyed by this little grass
Xie Bulao felt that Mu Yu was making a fuss, and said: "How can this world be as simple as you think? Since the birth of the world, everything has been relative. There are favorable factors for the development of the world, and there are also existences that destroy the world. , the existence of Styx Grass is a proof."
After a pause, Xie Bulao continued: "Whether it is the first, second, or third heaven, there are Styx grasses. In the past, no one knew the serious consequences of the death energy produced by the Styx grasses, so no one paid attention to it. Then I didn't know what happened. Someone from the First Level of Heaven separated the death energy and vitality of the Styx Grass, sucked away the vitality, and then the death energy began to spread, eventually turning the First Level of Heaven into a world without any living things."
"It's most likely the fault of a stupid guy like Yumeng." Xie Bulao added.
According to Xie Bulao, whether it is the first heaven, the second heaven, or the third heaven, there are humans, demons, and Yumeng demons. The first level of heaven is mainly controlled by the Yumeng demon clan. The human race and the demon race are almost extinct. Thousands of years ago, a stupid Yumeng demon clan found the only Hades grass in the first level of heaven, deprived the life of it and discarded the death energy. .
The amount of dead energy is not large at first, and there will be no serious consequences. But the most powerful thing about death energy is its contagiousness. It can gradually spread, turning everything it encounters into death energy, and it continues to expand. After the Yumeng demons in the first heaven discovered that something was wrong, it was too late to save them, so they had to flee to the second and third heavens. Those who could not escape were eroded by the death energy, and the first heaven was completely covered by the death energy. .
There are Hades grass in every heaven. Kumu said that he had been looking for the Hades grass in the third heaven for a long time but could not find it, so he had to ask Mu Yu to go to the second heaven to look for it. Because he guessed that the Styx Grass in the Triple Palace was protected by the Triple Palace, it was impossible for Mu Yu to have the ability to get the Styx Grass from the Triple Palace.
The Styx Grass is extremely terrifying and is not easy to find even in the Second Heaven. What Mu Yu didn't know was that if the mysterious phantom Qingyu secretly helped, he wouldn't be able to get the Styx Grass at all. Phantom Qingyu, like Jian Yingchenfeng and Xie Yingbu Lao, are immortal people with great cultivation. Naturally, he helped Mu Yu to help Jian Yingchenfeng.
"Actually, I suspect that the one who sucked away the anger of the Styx Grass in the first place should be the Spirit Master of Mu Yumeng in the First Level Sky. Mu Yumeng's favorite thing is the strong vitality. The anger of the Styx Grass is a huge treasure to him. Think about him. His life and death ability can be known in the blink of an eye. It's a pity that he is a fool and did not deal with the death energy well, destroying the whole world." Xie Bulao was gloating about his misfortune. Before the first layer of heaven, the Yumeng Demon Tribe had the upper hand, and their destruction was really unreasonable. Sympathy that never grows old.
Mu Yu once used the ability of "life and death in the blink of an eye". His eyes represented life and death. Tian Ran and Feng Haochen's fatal injuries were cured by his "life and death in the blink of an eye". It's a pity that this ability is too heaven-defying and far beyond his control. Now that the Yu Meng Spirit Master in his body is sealed by the Nine Heavens Demon Sealing Array, Mu Yu can no longer use this ability.
The heaven-defying ability has even more limitations. He cannot use his left eye to infinitely resurrect the Yumeng demons who died in the battle, nor can he directly use his right eye to kill large swaths of humans. This ability puts a huge load on his body. , the most important thing is that the human race can resist the death energy to a certain extent.
At first, Mu Yu seemed to be unstoppable when he used Life and Death in the Moyun Mountains. In fact, if his cultivation at the Golden Core stage at that time was used on people in the out-of-body stage, it would at most cause the people in the out-of-body stage to have some nosebleeds. It won't cause any substantial damage, and even Mu Yu himself will suffer backlash.
"You don't have to worry about the excess vitality of the underworld grass. The heaven and earth formation will absorb it. Solving the dead energy is a big trouble. The passage into the first level of heaven is sealed. It is unrealistic to throw it to the first level of heaven. You must rely on Mu Yu, you got the wood spirit from the Yumeng Demon Tribe, but I can’t guarantee what will happen to the wood spirit after absorbing the death energy." Feng Haochen said slowly.
"Less worry about those who are not there. Our great sentiment quickly recovered to repair. Let me want to wait for the defender of the Mie Palace. Something!" Xie Bulao said as he geared up.
"Can you cover up a little when you speak?" Feng Haochen was quite helpless.
Xie Bulao snorted disdainfully: "What are you afraid of? Are you still worried that the defenders can't eavesdrop? Didn't you set up so many formations for this small courtyard? He has extraordinary attainments in formations. Could it be that the three of us would lose to him?" him?"
Although Xie Bu Lao shouted every day that he wanted to kill Jian Yingchenfeng, Jian Yingchenfeng was his old friend for thousands of years, so it was impossible for him to really kill him. The most important thing is that some of the practices of Sanchong Palace are so excessive that even he can't stand it.
"Okay, stop talking! Let's start dealing with the Styx grass!" Kumu said.
Everyone focused on the Hades grass in Mu Yu's hand.
The underworld grass originally required an alchemist to separate accurately, but with Mu Yu around, he wasn't that worried. Although his alchemy skills are at the level of a three-legged cat, his control over plants is unmatched by others, let alone having a dead tree to guide him.
No matter how unnatural the consequences it can cause, Styx Grass exists in the form of a plant. It has black and white leaves intertwined with each other. The vitality and death are maintained in a wonderful balance. This balance is difficult to break. Just like the balance of the five elements in the ethereal land, the balance of life and death in the Hades Grass is even worse!
"You first separate the Nine Qi Soul Cleansing Flower as I told you."
Under Dead Wood's guidance, he first separated the death energy from the Nine-Qi Soul Cleansing Flower. The process of processing the Nine Qi Soul Cleansing Flower is not that complicated, because it is different from the Hades Grass, there are not so many restrictions, and there is no internal balance problem. This process is easy for Mu Yu.
It is not that easy to separate the life and death of the Styx Grass. If the balance it maintains can be easily broken, the world will be over long ago. The vitality and death energy of the Styx are intertwined with each other, and the power of mutual restraint is difficult to disperse. Even with Mu Yu's ability to control the wood, it is extremely difficult.
"Be careful and try to find the point in the balance of the Hades. As long as you destroy that point, you can separate the two leaves." Deadwood said.
Mu Yu touched the Hades grass with his hand, and his entire consciousness had been integrated into the Hades grass. The two leaves of the Styx Grass contain infinite vitality in the white, and are cold and domineering in the black. The moment Muyu's consciousness entered the Styx Grass, he felt like he was struggling on the edge of death and life, and suddenly deep in his heart Feeling an unwarranted shiver, Mu Yu was horrified to find that there was something else in the underworld grass!
The two leaves of the Styx Grass form a world of their own. He clearly entered from the intersection of the two leaves, but he was not sure of the speed and still entered the death energy of the Styx Grass. There was a vast expanse of black mist all around. Whether it was under the feet, above the head, or all around, the endless black mist could not be seen to the end. The black mist stirred uneasily, condensing into various weird shapes from time to time, swaying faintly, drifting away, and then condensing together again.
The pure black mist gave people an impulse of despair, killing, mania, restlessness, sadness, all kinds of emotions rushed up, making Mu Yu think of death for a moment! This is a primitive force that plays out various possibilities that can produce death.
This black mist is the so-called death energy, luring Mu Yu back into the embrace of death.
The black mist transformed, and suddenly the sky was filled with blood. All the black mist turned scarlet, and endless killing flashed through Mu Yu's eyes.
Then, Mu Yu saw a bloody scene!
The setting sun dyed half of the sky red, and the bloody light poured on the earth, illuminating the mess.
The ground is no longer so flat, sharp earth thorns rise all over the ground, piercing the corpses. The blood has not dried up, the sword is still in the hand, but life has passed.
The trees were lying in a mess, with human figures hanging on the hard branches. The leaves were blood red and looked extremely strange.
The river has been frozen, and ice edges rise from the water, piercing through countless cultivators. Warm blood flows down the ice edges, failing to melt the biting cold air.
The flame is burning on the earth, so strong, using the body of the cultivator as the source of fire, burning, burning, and complementing the setting sun.
The cruel flying sword betrayed its master. The tip of the sword passed through the heart, flashing with cold light and coming out of the body. The person holding the sword still had fear in his eyes, and he didn't understand why the sword in his hand turned towards him.
The tragic war between the human race and the Yumeng demon race unexpectedly broke into Mu Yu's mind. He saw all kinds of shocking death scenes of human cultivators. Their heads were flying, their bodies were cut off, their limbs were broken, their bodies were broken into pieces, and their blood flowed like rivers! He saw the Yumeng demons turn into steam, into coke, into dust, into sawdust, into molten iron!
There is no chance of survival, no fluctuation of vitality, everything is death, all things are dying, and death is the final destination of all things. Here, there is no hope, no life, everything here shows the attitude of death!
Mu Yu hates this feeling. The black leaves of the Styx are a world of death. Staying there for a long time will make people feel desperate, and it will also cause Mu Yu's consciousness to dissipate and turn into death. He ran back, he knew where the breath of life was, and that direction was guiding him like a bright light in the silence of death. But he suddenly found that the bright light was close at hand, but out of reach. He ran in the direction of life. He wanted to leave here, but couldn't find the exit. Time was passing slowly, and he felt that thousands of years had passed, but he still could not reach the intersection of life, and a heart-wrenching despair enveloped him from the bottom of his heart...
"Wow!"
As if being fished out of water, Mu Yu's whole body was soaked in cold sweat. Kumu's hand touched Mu Yu's vital point, pulling his consciousness out of the death aura of Mingcao!
"My consciousness fell into the world of Death Grass. That place was too scary." After a long time, Mu Yu spat out these words in horror.
"It takes less than ten breaths for you to enter." Deadwood said softly.
