Once you enter the gates of hell,
People from the Yin and Yang worlds!
On each of the two city gates, there are five ancient large characters, forming a couplet.
It was also as black as ink, emitting a strange and creepy aura!
"This word... is actually written with the Immortal Emperor's blood?!"
The Demon Crystal Core exclaimed, his eyes full of disbelief.
Although those words looked as black as ink, they still sparkled with a certain divine light and flowed with an immortal aura, so they could affect the emperor's soul, which was weird and terrifying.
It was clearly written in blood, and it was the blood of the Immortal Emperor!
An Di Ling Xiao, Zhao Ritian and Ye Liangchen were all extremely shocked. This ancient city was too strange and weird. They felt chills all over their bodies before they even entered.
"Are we still going in?"
The voice of the Demonic Crystal Core was trembling.
It felt its legs go weak. Even though it had no legs, it was completely terrified.
"Of course I have to go in!"
Dark Lingxiao spoke slowly, his eyes full of sharpness.
He was of unruly character and had never known what fear was. Not to mention that it was just a place where a great emperor had attained enlightenment, even if there really was a living emperor sleeping there, he would dare to go and find out.
"That's right! Now that we're here, of course we have to go in and take a look! Besides, we have no way out!"
Zhao Ritian said slowly and looked back.
Behind everyone, the Netherworld Ship that had originally stayed in the desert had completely disappeared.
whoosh!
The Demon Crystal Core felt a chill rushing towards its head, and immediately it jumped onto Zhao Ritian's shoulder with a whoosh, trembling.
"What are you doing?"
Zhao Ritian glared at it with dissatisfaction.
"Big... Big... Big Brother, I will follow you from now on, no matter what happens!"
The Demon Crystal Core's teeth were chattering and it began to show its loyalty, but it lay tightly on Zhao Ritian's shoulder and refused to go down no matter what.
This damn place is so scary!
It is now somewhat thankful that it did not break in on its own, otherwise it would have been really doomed.
An Xi Ling Xiao looked ferocious, Ye Liangchen looked unlucky, but Zhao Ritian seemed to be extremely lucky, as if he was protected by an inexplicable force. He seemed to be the most blessed among the three and should not die so easily.
So the Demon Crystal Core made up his mind and followed Zhao Ritian.
As for the dignity of the Demon Emperor
My life is almost gone, what dignity do I need
"Let's go!"
Seeing the state of the Demonic Crystal Core, Zhao Ritian was helpless. He nodded and everyone walked towards the ancient city.
The two ancient city gates were made of unknown metal. They were also dark and strange. When Dark Lingxiao and the other two approached, they slowly opened automatically.
A long-forgotten smell of decay wafted over, and one could vaguely see the houses, streets, and attics in the ancient city.
They were no longer surprised by the weirdness of this place.
However, they were very surprised that there was no trace of Taoism left in the place where Emperor Yama attained enlightenment.
Walking into the ancient city is like entering another world.
The ancient city, which originally looked very empty, suddenly became extremely prosperous and lively.
The street in front of me was busy with cars and people coming and going, and from the shops on both sides came the sounds of hawking.
In a trance, An An Ling Xiao and others felt as if they had come to a market in the mortal world.
The smell of fireworks.
That’s right, it’s the flavor of life that embodies the joys and sorrows, separations and reunions, and joys and sorrows of the world.
Seeing this scene before them, they couldn't help but feel calm inside.
Even the decisive and murderous Dark Lingxiao had a less fierce and more gentle look between his brows.
"This is?"
There was a hint of extreme shock in Zhao Ritian's eyes.
He had never imagined that such a scene would appear in this ancient city, just like a prosperous city in the human world.
Isn’t this the place where King Yama is enlightened
However, Zhao Ritian soon discovered something wrong.
Although there were crowds of people in front of him and it was very prosperous and lively, those figures did not have any vitality. Instead, they were full of a strong sense of death and exuded an incomparable mysterious power of time, as if separated by endless years.
Zhao Ritian stretched out his hand to touch an old man in front of him, but his palm passed through the old man's body. The old man was unaware and still had a smile on his face.
Moreover, no one noticed Dark Lingxiao and the others at all.
"These figures should be the marks left in the world, right? This is a scene from the ancient times, just like a mirage, it still exists today! However... the death aura on them is real, these are all dead people!"
There was a gleam in the dark Lingxiao's eyes as he spoke slowly.
"A group of dead people? Could it be that these are the souls that King Yama has taken in?"
Ye Liangchen's heart moved.
"possible!"
Dark Lingxiao nodded.
They walked towards the ancient city. People were coming and going all around them. It was very lively and prosperous, and there was a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere between everyone's eyebrows.
Dark Lingxiao and the other two were like bystanders, looking at the bustling streets in front of them. They seemed to be experiencing all kinds of life, and a strange understanding came to their minds.
"If the dead souls can really rest in peace after death, this can be regarded as a great merit, right? The move of the Great Emperor Yama will greatly benefit the perfection of the Heavenly Dao. If he can really succeed, perhaps he will surpass all the great emperors of the past and present and reach an unprecedented state of transcendence, right?"
The Sky Demon Crystal Core also sighed softly.
In the ancient city, everything was in good order, and every dead soul was peaceful and quiet, which made An Xi Ling Xiao and the others a little dazed and silent.
They didn't say anything, just continued walking forward.
The ancient city was bigger than they had imagined.
The population ahead was gradually sparse, and a huge river was surging, exuding a misty atmosphere, as if it could bury everything.
There is a stone bridge over the river, and on the bridge there is an old woman with wrinkles all over her face, with a kind smile on her face.
Every ghost who walked across the stone bridge would take a bowl of soup from the old woman and drink it all in one gulp.
After crossing the stone bridge, there are three strange and ancient stones. Each stone is shining with light, like a mirror, as if it can reflect past and present lives and bring to light the past.
Yellow Springs Road!
Naihe Bridge!
Three Lives Stone!
This is the path that the dead souls must take. Only by cleansing the cause and effect step by step and completing this life can they enter reincarnation!
The boundary between Yin and Yang, life and death.
The gate of hell, stepping into the underworld.
Mengpo soup is on the Naihe Bridge, and the Three Lives Stone is on the earthly realm!
Dark Lingxiao and the other two became increasingly silent. They seemed to have become one of the dead souls, stepping forward to embrace new hope and life.
It seemed as if some kind of worldly aura was cleansed from their bodies, and some kind of shackles of confinement were broken, making them feel an unprecedented sense of relief.
Continuing forward, we were filled with deathly air and chaotic mist, and entered the ancient City of the Dead, passed the solemn and dignified Hall of Yama, and finally arrived at the vast Samsara Pool.
In the city of wrongful death, the cause and effect of the previous life are severed.
In the Hall of Yama, the good and evil of this life are judged.
In the reincarnation pond, the fate of the next life begins.
The shape of the Samsara Pool is very peculiar. It looks like a huge hexagram, emitting bright and mysterious light.
Six brilliant beams of light shot up into the sky like pillars of heaven, circling and interweaving with each other, as if containing the vast truths of heaven and earth.
"This is the place where Emperor Yama truly attained enlightenment!"
Ye Liangchen said slowly, with an extremely complicated look in his eyes.
"That's right! It seems to be here. All the marks we have come here are illusions. They just existed in the past. But this Samsara Pool is not simple. It is real!"
Dark Lingxiao nodded.
They had walked all the way from the gates of hell, and they actually felt exhausted. It seemed as if all the dust around them had been washed away. They looked extremely peaceful and comfortable, and their whole bodies exuded a different kind of aura.
Now, standing by the Samsara Pool, they finally felt the vast and majestic Taoism.
In the place where the Great Emperor transforms into the Tao, a special Tao rhyme will be formed, which is immortal and indestructible. It is the trace of the Great Dao. Unless the Tao rhyme is absorbed and refined, it will exist forever.
They felt the rhythm of Tao. This reincarnation pool was transformed by the rhythm of Tao, so this is also the true place where Emperor Yama transformed into Tao.
"That familiar breath is getting stronger and stronger. I seem to feel that something in the Samsara Pool is calling me!"
Ye Liangchen's eyes were full of confusion as he slowly walked towards the reincarnation pool.
“Stop! The Samsara Pool is the result of the Dao rhyme of the Great Emperor Yama, and contains the supreme samsara path that the Great Emperor Yama has comprehended. Even if the Great Emperor Yama has fallen, if you step into the Samsara Pool, your body will be destroyed in an instant, your soul will dissipate, and you will fall into the samsara and perish forever!”
The Sky Demon Crystal Core shouted, his eyes filled with an extremely solemn look.
After hearing what the Demon Crystal Core said, An Xi Ling Xiao and Zhao Ritian hurriedly stopped Ye Liangchen.
Both An Xi Ling Xiao and Zhao Ritian felt the horror of the Samsara Pool. If they dared to enter it, they would probably encounter unexpected events, so they immediately stood in front of Ye Liangchen.
"It's okay, I can feel it, the Samsara Pool is not dangerous to me!"
Ye Liangchen shook his head.
"Is that true?"
Dark Lingxiao asked again.
Ye Liangchen nodded affirmatively.
An Di Ling Xiao and Zhao Ritian looked at each other and both stepped aside.
They could all feel that Ye Liangchen's condition was not right since he arrived here, and they were also very curious about the relationship between Ye Liangchen and Emperor Yama.
Buzz!
Ye Liangchen stepped into the reincarnation pool.
The surroundings were filled with hazy light and auspicious aura. The ethereal light hovered around Ye Liangchen, making him exude a strange and ethereal aura.
Ye Liangchen's eyebrows glowed, and runes seemed to be rising up around him, vaguely constructing an extremely mysterious formation that emerged.
Boom!
The Samsara Pool seemed to have sensed something as well and began to vibrate violently. Among the six bright beams of light, chains of divine order intertwined and enveloped Ye Liangchen's body, making him look extremely mysterious.
Snap!
Around Ye Liangchen, the ancient formation burst out with mysterious power, and a figure suddenly walked out from between his eyebrows and instantly soared into the sky.
Above the sky, it seemed as if one side had suddenly broken apart, revealing a vast and ancient world.
"What?! Who is that figure?"
The Demon Crystal Core trembled all over, and his eyes were full of disbelief.
The figure between Ye Liangchen's eyebrows was surrounded by a vast imperial power. Although his face could not be seen clearly, he had an unparalleled aura of being invincible, which made people secretly shocked.
Although the core of the Sky Demon Crystal was shocked and had some guesses, he did not dare to say it out loud.
Great Emperor!
That is a great emperor!
But why is there a great emperor hidden between Ye Liangchen’s eyebrows
An An Ling Xiao and Zhao Ritian were also shocked, but they said nothing. They raised their heads and looked at the mysterious scene in the void.
It was an ancient and mysterious world, vast and boundless. At least from Zhao Ritian’s perspective, that world was no weaker than the divine realm.
But in that world, there are mysterious and illusory passages that connect all the heavens and worlds. They are constructed with order, condensed with laws, and contain some powerful Tao rhyme.
Among the heavens and myriad worlds, illusory shadows followed the passage into that ancient world.
Then, all the scenes that An An Ling Xiao and Zhao Ri Tian encountered along the way, such as the Ghost Gate, Yellow Spring Road, Naihe Bridge, Sansheng Stone... emerged in that world.
It was an ancient road.
It runs through the world and seems to connect the heavens. It is ancient and mysterious.
"Are those all dead souls? Then this ancient world is the legendary... underworld!"
There was a sharp gleam in the dark Lingxiao's eyes, and he spoke slowly.
"That figure between Ye Liangchen's eyebrows, could it be Emperor Yama?"
Zhao Ritian said in great shock.
Boom!
As soon as he finished speaking, the ancient world in the void trembled slightly, and a figure stood in the world, with brilliant light blooming around him, and a vast aura spread out.
The imperial power is rising, shining brightly in the world!
That was a great emperor, who seemed to be evolving the supreme rhyme of Tao at this moment. The Ghost Gate, Yellow Springs Road, Naihe Bridge and other places in the world all burst into brilliant light, resonating with the great emperor.
The vast Dao rhyme condensed and slowly merged into Ye Liangchen's body below.
Ye Liangchen's eyes were slightly closed, his expression seemed mixed with joy and sadness, his face became haggard and unfamiliar, as if he had become a different person.
Snap!
Above the sky, there was a bloody rain. In the hexagram's reincarnation pool, it seemed as if a huge hand reached out. Its power was so terrifying that it instantly crushed the Ghost Gate and the Yellow Spring Road into pieces.
The Samsara Pool also exploded with a loud bang!
That palm seemed to contain the vast power of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, which pierced through the emperor's chest in an instant.
Then, the emperor's whole body trembled violently, his face was filled with rage and murderous intent, and he seemed to be roaring something.
But his voice was obscured by a mysterious power and there was no way it could be heard out.
Although the emperor was injured, he still fought bloody battles with the big hand in the reincarnation pool.
In an instant, the galaxy shattered, gods and demons shed blood, and a horrific storm swept across, causing all the heavens and worlds to be destroyed.
This is the Imperial War!
That terrifying fluctuation made An An Ling Xiao and Zhao Ritian look extremely solemn.
"Is this the truth behind the fall of King Yama? Whose hand is that?"
Dark Lingxiao said slowly, his eyes full of shock.
"Yan Luo Emperor is said to be able to kill emperors. How powerful must someone be to be able to kill Yan Luo Emperor? Could it be... a transcendent being?"
Zhao Ritian's expression was also extremely solemn.
As for the Demonic Crystal Core, it was already trembling with fear and hiding behind Zhao Ritian.
"I... can't... believe it!!!"
At this moment, Ye Liangchen in the Samsara Pool suddenly stood up with his hair and beard, his eyes turned red, he looked into the depths of the sky, and let out an old and unfamiliar roar.
The sound was like thunder, shaking the sky!
