After pondering for a moment, Xiao Chen nodded and said, "Okay, I will listen to you. When the time comes, I will go with your master."
Qingcheng smiled slightly: "I will inform my master right away."
"Let's go to the underworld first and wait for your master."
Underworld Hell is one of the famous forbidden areas in Kunlun Realm. Its popularity can be compared with that of the wild battlefield.
During the Immortal Era, before the six paths of reincarnation were broken, this was the underworld, which was in charge of the three realms and six paths, and the reincarnation of all living things.
At that time, if you did not become an immortal, you would be reincarnated forever, and you would be reincarnated in the next life based on your good and evil deeds, judged by the underworld.
Those who do evil will be reborn in the realm of animals. In the next life, they will be pigs, dogs, and beasts without wisdom, and they will inevitably be slaughtered by humans. Those who are extremely treacherous, evil, and cruel will be in hell, where they will be subjected to thousands of tortures according to their sins.
Those who do good will be reincarnated as human beings in the next life and go through reincarnation again. Some people with great merit can even directly enter the heavenly realm. They are born with the body of an immortal spirit and raised by the earth, and are called heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals.
Now the immortal way is broken, reincarnation is no longer there, and hell does not exist, leaving only this broken hell.
The past is like smoke, and the facts of the past have become the legends and myths of today.
In today's era, there is no reincarnation, there are no immortals in the world, everyone can only live one life, and few people believe in the theory of merit.
But who could know that there is always a Bodhisattva from the previous era hidden in this hell. I made a great wish that hell would never be empty, and I vowed not to become a Buddha. I waited for millions of years.
His perseverance and his devotion to the Buddha are terrifying.
However, such a person is still an extremely ambitious person, and he will do whatever it takes to achieve his goal. They regard believers as rations and only know how to ask for them, but they don’t know how to give.
Ksitigarbha is an extremely terrifying existence. In real terms, his background is much greater than that of the King of Thunder and the Demon God.
Half a day later, Xiao Chen and Qingcheng arrived at Mount Tai above the Underworld.
Taishan is like in the past, surrounded by a hundred miles of gloomy air. From time to time, you can see wandering ghosts wandering around.
At the foot of the mountain, there is a turbid river, running from the top of the mountain to here and rushing to the earth.
This river is the famous Styx River. Some people also call it the River of the Dead, the Yellow Spring River, and the Nai River.
However, the river had long been incomplete. The cycle of reincarnation was broken, and the source of the river, the Xuan River of Tianjie, was broken into several sections.
Many of the strange characteristics of the river have also been lost. Walking down the river will lead to the Nine Nether Purgatory.
"Xiao Chen, do you still remember this river?"
Qingcheng asked softly as she recalled some past events.
"Of course I remember."
Xiao Chen looked around with some nostalgia and remembered that when he came last time, many warriors could be seen gathering on the river bank.
This time, all I could hear was the rushing sound of the river, and the surroundings were completely empty.
While crossing the river, some interesting things happened. The boatman was Qingcheng pretending to be the boatman.
It almost made Xiao Chen, Xiao Bai and others unable to advance or retreat.
The recollection stops here, and the scene becomes a bit embarrassing as we reminisce.
"Hehe, it seems that at that time, someone would take off my clothes."
Xiao Chen didn't want to recall it, but Qingcheng took the initiative to bring it up and looked at Xiao Chen mischievously.
Xiao Chen chuckled. Just when he didn't know how to answer, a figure fell from the sky.
It was Xunqian Ghost Mother. The smile on Qingcheng's face disappeared and she became serious.
"King Qinglong, I've kept you waiting for a long time." Ghost Mother Xunqian said very politely to Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen smiled calmly and said: "You're welcome, Ghost Mother. I want to know, what is so special about this underworld now?"
Xunqian Ghost Mother nodded: "The entrance of the Styx River into hell is blocked by a Buddha statue. That Buddha statue can draw power from the Styx River, which is quite difficult to deal with. I organized my forces several times, but I couldn't break through the Buddha statue. Huangquan I don’t know much about what hell is like now.”
Xiao Chen was thoughtful. It seemed that Xunqian Ghost Mother didn't know much.
"Let's go and have a look with me."
In the past, it was not possible to fly across the Styx River, but for Xiao Chen now, there is no restriction.
Qingcheng and Ghost Mother, one has the strength of the Great Heavenly Martial Emperor, and the other has the strength of the Holy Lord, it is not difficult to fly on them.
Above the Styx River, Xiao Chen always felt that there was an inexplicable suction force below, trying to pull him down.
Today, Xiao Chen has slightly touched the surface of Soul Dao martial arts, and knows that this is the soul power in the Styx.
Although Emperor Wu and others cannot cultivate soul power, their soul power is definitely growing as their strength increases, but they cannot use it.
With soul power at the level of a Martial Emperor, the suction power of the Styx is no longer effective.
Flying along the Styx, sinking continuously, we soon arrived at the end of the Styx.
Xiao Chen saw the Buddha statue that the ghost mother was talking about. It was a thousand-meter-high Buddha statue, emitting golden light, sitting on the River Styx.
Its tall body makes the underground space seem a bit small.
"No mortals can enter the depths of hell. Please retreat quickly!"
The Buddha statue suddenly opened its eyes, and golden light emanated from its body. Waves of Buddha's power caused the water of the Styx to churn endlessly.
"What a strong Fuwei!"
Qingcheng frowned slightly and said with some surprise.
Xunqian Ghost Mother said: "Behind the Buddha statue, there are many Arhats, who have arranged formations to increase the Buddha statue's strength almost infinitely."
"Mortal? Aren't you a mortal?"
Xiao Chen sneered, stepped forward and punched him directly.
Boom!
I saw the water of the Styx rising continuously, covering the Buddha statue, covering it like gold paint.
The Buddha statue made a seal with one hand to withstand Xiao Chen's punch. The golden body remained motionless, and the Buddha's light became more intense.
"It's interesting, but unfortunately, I don't have time to play with you anymore."
Xiao Chen shouted loudly, and the power of ten thousand dragons gathered into a dragon cauldron, and the power of the cauldron exploded out.
It was fast and hard, and before the Buddha could react, he was hit in the chest.
Tiny cracks quickly appeared on the Buddha statue, spreading like a spider web.
Just as the Buddha statue was about to break into pieces, bursts of solemn Buddhist scriptures suddenly sounded from behind the Buddha statue.
The water of the Styx kept churning, and the cracks in the broken Buddha statue quickly healed, and soon it was intact as before.
"That's it. This Buddha statue is completely unkillable. We have tried several times." Xunqian Ghost Mother said softly as this was not the first time she saw this scene.
Xiao Chen looked at the Buddha statue carefully, and after a moment, he understood it clearly.
"I thought there was another way, but it was just to use the soul power in the River Styx to recover. I'm pretending to be a ghost. If I want you today, my soul will be destroyed."
With a cold shout, Xiao Chen's aura emerged, and a faint halo appeared behind him.
As soon as the Taoist power appeared, he immediately suppressed the opponent's Buddha power completely.
Xiao Chen stretched out his hand, and the powerful true energy formed a vortex in his palm.
Whoop whoosh!
The water of the Styx was continuously pulled into the whirlpool by this huge suction force.
Qingcheng was stunned. She had never thought that the water of the Styx could be sucked up by others.
The Buddha statue saw this scene, formed seals with both hands, and attacked Xiao Chen one after another.
However, Xunqian Ghost Mother stopped them all and did not hurt Xiao Chen at all.
In fact, Xiao Chen can be safe and sound without Xunqian Ghost Mother taking action. But it is obviously better to have someone help and concentrate.
After a while, the Styx beneath his feet dropped a foot, and the body of the Buddha statue was temporarily separated from the Styx.
"It's now!"
Xiao Chen punched out. After the Buddha statue shattered this time, no matter how loudly he chanted the scriptures, he could not restore the Buddha statue.
When the Buddha statue shattered, a figure flew out from it.
It turns out that this Buddha statue is the dharma image of a warrior who cultivates Buddhism. At this moment, the dharma image is destroyed, and the true body is exposed.
The Arhats who were chanting sutras behind them all fled in all directions the moment the Buddha statue was broken.
"Xie Zixuan!"
Qingcheng saw the man's appearance clearly and exclaimed.
This person is none other than the Ghost King's disciple, Xie Zixuan. It is hard to imagine that this person would actually become a Buddhist.
"Don't call me Xie Zixuan. My current Buddhist name is Daoxuan. You mortals who dare to enter the monastery of Master Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva will never end well."
Qingcheng's face was full of shock, and she couldn't believe how such a good person could become so strange.
"Don't be surprised. He has been converted, which is equivalent to brainwashing. He is the slave of Ksitigarbha. If we follow him, we can find Ksitigarbha."
Xiao Chen was not surprised by this and rushed after him. Xunqian Guimu and Qingcheng quickly followed.
