"So that's it!" Pei Ziyun said, and the sword light pierced out.
A monster let out a long roar, but with a "pop", a cloud of blood mist splashed out, followed by another sword blow, and a head flew out.
Monsters kept pounced on them, and Pei Ziyun killed them all with one stab of his sword. The corpses gradually piled up, and the surrounding scenery fluctuated like smoke.
At the moment of killing, everything around him disappeared like smoke, leaving only darkness. The surrounding area was empty. If he looked carefully, it was a space of several feet, about the size of a yard, with nothing else.
Pei Ziyun frowned and stood there thinking for a while, confused: "What is this?"
Pei Ziyun remembered that he was about to start the second chassis in his promise. Suddenly, his vision went dark and he fell into hallucination. He was thinking about it when suddenly, plum blossoms appeared and enveloped his whole body.
As it shrouded, the light gradually shone down, and he saw a cloud of black air. Pei Ziyun was shocked. Before he could react, he saw the petals of the plum blossom turning.
With just a twist, this mass of black energy was unable to move for an instant and turned into the face of a three-faced giant, shouting: "No, it's impossible. How could this appear here? Impossible."
"...No, you have been broken for a long time, you should..."
Before he finished speaking, the petals of the plum blossom closed, and there was only a continuous "crack" sound. The three-sided giant face suddenly couldn't hold on, and was turned by the plum blossom again, turning into nothing. A stream of memory flowed out and hit his heart.
"...it is difficult to cross the void..."
"...Thousands of evil spells..."
"...parasitic and demon..."
Pei Ziyun closed his eyes slightly and accepted the information bit by bit. He couldn't help but frown: "There are no demons in this world, but the demon aura has declined. Is it because the magic weapon of the blind Taoist has been transmitted?"
"The demon emperor's soul descended and was struck by lightning. The fragments were scattered around. These marks will target the cultivators. When they break through again, the demon emperor's marks will lurk in the cultivators' Yinshen. They will gradually assimilate their thoughts, become close to the demon clan and become human beings. evil."
"The process is just like this, turning into a demon clan, using family affection and hatred to make people kill humans. As long as they kill humans..."
"It's a pity that this scrap is all it takes."
Except for some densely packed magic, I don't know if there are any useful magic.
"No, that's not right." Pei Ziyun recalled what he said before the black energy disappeared: "Does it know Mei Hua?"
Pei Ziyun pondered, carefully checking the fragment's memory, but found nothing: "It clearly recognizes it, why can't I find this memory?"
Pei Ziyun fell into deep thought for a long time before he turned around and said, "No matter what, let's get out of here first. Is this the space formed by the fragments?"
It is recorded in the Songyun Sect classics that a founder was once trapped in it, and later escaped with a little sense. It is said that this kind of space can actually be stepped out with the right step.
"It seems that I have to find a way to sense it." Pei Ziyun thought secretly, Yun Shen felt it.
"Songyun Gate Blessed Land?"
"Too weak, like nothing."
"Immortal dragon vein? My ratio is too small and it's difficult."
"Hey, now it's the court's dragon energy that has the greatest sensitivity, and it means it's close to me."
Pei Ziyun felt the dragon energy carefully, and immediately rushed according to the feeling, "crack", his eyes lit up, and he appeared on the ground, and the sun shone down.
"What? Where is this? How can there be a sun in the underworld?" Pei Ziyun was startled and looked around. The sun was setting, but there was no desert and darkness around him.
There were some green grass and trees, and the lake was full of water. Pei Ziyun was surprised, stretched out his hand to look at it, and hesitated: "No, this is not the mortal world. I am still a ghost spirit. Why is there this place in the underworld?"
"Which blessed place is this?"
"Drive" At this time, a ray of red light came from the sky, and in a blink of an eye, a carriage pulled by four horses appeared not far away. When Pei Ziyun looked, he saw that the whole body was red, the shaft was wide, and it was decorated with emerald pearls. , pulling the cart is an official, and if you look closely, it is a ghost.
The ghost, dressed in official robes and protected by golden light, jumped out of the carriage with a straight face and said, "I have seen Master Pei. I am an envoy from the Great Xu court, and I am here to greet him on the order of Emperor Xu Qinming."
"Eh, Emperor Qinming? Isn't this the title given to his father by Emperor Xu after he ascended the throne for three generations?"
Looking towards the carriage, he saw a flag on the carriage with the character "Xu" written on it. Pei Ziyun understood that he must have arrived at the blessed land of Dragon Qi in the Great Xu Dynasty.
"I have seen the envoy, please ask the envoy to lead the way." Pei Ziyun saluted the envoy. He escaped from the crack in the underworld, which may have alerted Emperor Xu Qinming.
The carriage has a crystal clear luster, and the space in the carriage is very large, like a hall.
"Please!" Sitting down, the wine pot automatically flew up from the coffee table, filled a cup of golden jade liquid, and delivered it to Pei Ziyun.
"You're ashamed of yourself. You don't know how to respect the name of God?" Pei Ziyun drank it and felt tired.
"The lower official is Fan Ren. When the emperor rebelled, I followed him, but I was unlucky and died in the battle. However, today I have a list of those killed in battle, and the lower official is among them, and I can also shower the emperor's favor." Fan Ren said, and the carriage sped up. Running, as fast as lightning, Pei Ziyun opened the car curtain and looked up from the sky, which was a strange sight. Then he calmed down and looked carefully, and saw that the sun was rising in the east. The sun itself was yellow. If you look closely, it was a bit red and the angle was a bit tilted.
The ground is all fields, and it is very warm under the sun in the sky. As we gradually get closer to the city, we can see that there are obviously more residences. Houses stand tall and filled with smoke.
A huge palace floated in the sky in the distance, supported by clouds, and went straight into it. The continuous palaces slowly unfolded. The car stopped flying above it and landed on the ground. It was paved with white marble.
The door slowly opened, and a general came out to greet him: "I am Li Yuan. I fought with the emperor in the north and south, and later became the Marquis of Jingyong. Your Majesty sent me to greet you."
"I'm just a stranger, how dare I welcome Marquis Jingyong in person?" Pei Ziyun asked in surprise.
"The real person has done great service for me, Da Xu, in quelling the rebellion. He also brought the emperor's sword and the token. He deserves it, he deserves it." Li Yuan said.
When the two of them entered, they saw a long corridor. All the palace rooms looked tall and magnificent. Looking ahead, the waves of the pool were melting, and the bottom could be clearly seen. It was surrounded by flowers, as bright as clouds and brocade.
The open space is covered with grass, or there is a small pavilion with a piano table, a jade pier, and a chess table, many of which are made of white jade. The scenery is beautiful, and you can hear people laughing.
Pei Ziyun couldn't help but praise: "What a blessed place."
He asked again: "How can we know the situation in the Yang world even when Yin and Yang are separated?"
"You can know the number of Qi, and there are reports from people who died in the battle. The last time Uncle Pingyuan fell, he cried and apologized to Emperor Qinming." Li Yuan was still very polite.
"Where is this blessed field of dragon energy? Why has the underworld never been seen? The Taoist classics also have vague records?" Pei Ziyun asked.
Listening to Pei Ziyun's words, Marquis Jingyong couldn't help but laugh: "This place is no longer in the underworld."
He stopped and pointed downward: "The Dragon Qi Futian is the foundation of humanity. Six thousand years ago, the Li Dynasty was first established. It has gone through twenty dynasties and has been passed down from generation to generation."
"It was ordered by heaven and Guo Zuo is still there. In fact, it is not suitable to be called the Dragon Qi Futian, but it can be called the Heavenly Palace."
"Without the destiny and the country Zuo, the land of dragon energy and blessings will gradually sink. Therefore, every new dynasty must be higher than the old dynasty."
"Many mortals think that the blessed field of dragon energy is in the underworld, which is actually a lie."
"Look at the sun rising in the east of our country, it's a clear proof." Li Yuan pointed at the sun and said, Pei Ziyun finally understood. It turns out that the sun is here when the country is there
Listening again: "All dynasties have been emperors, so the new dynasty will offer sacrifices to all previous dynasties. Of course, if the big money dynasty does something against heaven, there will be punishment."
"Therefore, the Dragon Qi Futian has twenty floors. Da Qian was punished by God towards the Dragon Qi Futian, but he fell a lot."
Listening to Marquis Jingyong's words, Pei Ziyun couldn't help but be secretly shocked. It turned out that the country was still there, and the blessed land of dragon energy was higher than the underworld, forming the heavenly kingdom.
Entering from the corridor, you arrive at a palace. There are steps at the door of the palace. In front of the steps, tall soldiers holding ceremonial guards are lined up and standing, which is very majestic.
Marquis Jingyong went inside to report. After a moment, he asked Pei Ziyun to come in.
Going up the stairs, there are two rows of treasure pillars in the hall, and behind them stands a row of armored men, each holding a guard of honor, shining in the cold light, and the waiters each have their own costumes.
In this palace, an emperor was sitting upright, surrounded by dragon aura, with a light green robe on his body, looking majestic. Pei Ziyun entered and saluted the emperor.
"I don't have to pay tribute to the real person. I felt that there was dragon energy in the underworld before. My son has not yet returned to his throne, so I am in charge of the dragon energy. I naturally feel it. It is not easy for the real person to be expelled from the family at such a young age." Qinming Emperor in the Dragon Qi Blessed Field , looked at Pei Ziyun and said: "There are changes in the underworld, and it's a coincidence that you can come here, but you don't have much time."
Emperor Qinming seemed to think that Pei Ziyun had a close relationship with the imperial court, so he changed the subject and asked about mortal matters.
Pei Ziyun bowed down and told his story one by one: "In the past few years of the Xu dynasty, the world was stable. Only the traitorous minister Jibei Hou rebelled. He was wiped out by the heavenly troops of the imperial court. Jibeihou is dead."
"We already know what's going on in the south, but do you know what's going on in the north?" Emperor Qinming said. Seeing Pei Ziyun's hesitation, he added, "I know this is related to royal strife. Just say it, I won't blame you."
Pei Ziyun bowed: "Yes!"
He also talked about King Lu's affairs. The emperor was critically ill, King Lu spread rumors, and the prince supervised the country. Before Pei Ziyun went down to the underworld, King Lu captured Xiongguan. Let's talk about it one by one.
Pei Ziyun looked up at this time and saw the emperor sitting upright with a sad face, sighing melancholy: "This is Qi Shuo, there are no descendants, and there is no light in the underworld."
"If you have descendants, you will be distinguished by Xiaoyu."
"If there is a family property, brothers will fight against each other, and father and son will kill each other. It is inevitable that my family will win the world because of the blessings of heaven."
"Your Majesty, children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. The separation of yin and yang will only increase the sorrow." At this time, a person persuaded, and the emperor sighed: "The heavens have changed, and there seems to be a force in the blessed land of Longtian that is shifting the Qi. I I’m also worried!”
He also said: "For ordinary things, we need the help of real people."
Originally, the Netherworld could not communicate with the real world, but for some reason, these words were spoken. When Pei Ziyun heard this, he immediately said that he did not dare, and then talked about collecting marks.
"It's easy"
Emperor Qinming smiled and ordered someone to bring a pot of fine wine. He poured the wine into a cup and said, "You can drink this cup yourself and then go get the last piece."
Hearing this, Pei Ziyun thanked him and took some wine to drink. Suddenly, a cool feeling penetrated his heart and spleen. The mark was drawn to him in the dark, and only the last piece of Woniu Village was left.
"Thank you for the wine, Your Majesty, but it saves you a lot of trouble." Pei Ziyun said. Emperor Qinming listened and nodded: "It's getting late. I'll send an envoy to give you a ride."
Pei Ziyun left and when he arrived outside, the words of Emperor Qinming came to his ears: "You have made great contributions to this dynasty, but you only used it to steal the dragon energy, so I will not reward you."
Hearing this voice, Pei Ziyun suddenly realized that a Taoist should not take the dragon's energy lightly, otherwise there will be disaster. I am afraid it means that the emperor is watching underground. If a Taoist who uses the dragon's energy recklessly returns to the underworld, he will be in trouble or be punished by the emperor.
There are groups of white cranes in the lotus pond, with elegant postures. Not far away, there are some palace maids coming in and out, and soldiers patrolling, Pei Ziyun is thoughtful.
"The emperor conquered the world and made him emperor for three generations. This is the emperor's father."
"It is said that this man was good at writing, and he was once elected as a county magistrate. Taizu Taizu's first pot of gold came from his father's influence."
"Ma'am, where do we go from here?"
Marquis Jingyong asked, and Pei Ziyun immediately felt relieved and said, "I hope the Marquis will send me to Woniu Village, Dong'an County."
"drive"
The armored soldiers immediately drove away on their horses. Marquis Jingyong was sitting and talking to Pei Ziyun. Suddenly the sunlight outside disappeared and Pei Ziyun opened the curtain of the carriage to take a look.
I saw the boundary between light and darkness, and a pillar of dragon energy rotated upwards, straight into the sky. For a long time, Pei Ziyun was silent. In this mixture of gods and humans, where immortals and gods coexist, history can be shown so clearly. change.
"It's really spectacular." Pei Ziyun sighed.
"Master, Woniu Village has arrived." Marquis Jingyong just looked down and said, "Master, be careful, there is an ambush in secret."
Pei Ziyun glanced at it and sneered: "I just won't get out of the carriage."
After saying that, he opened the curtain and saw that Woniu Village corresponds to the underworld. There is a faint spiritual light falling down, forming a residence. There are occasionally large houses, and one of them has a familiar feeling.
"This is where my clan's temple is."
Thinking about it, I took a breath below, and suddenly a little spiritual light rushed out. The mark was sucked into the mouth, and it was immediately completed. The carriage did not stop and continued to go out. The incarnation of the Earth Immortal flashed out, furious, but helpless.
"Damn it, Pei Ziyun is so virtuous and capable that he was sent away by a dragon and horse. Could it be that Pei Ziyun got the approval of the late emperor by being in the underworld?"
The carriage moved quickly and arrived at a place in a blink of an eye. There was a faint light in the sky, which was the boundary between the underworld and the real world.
Marquis Jingyong stopped stepping forward and said, "I can only send him here."
Pei Ziyun said goodbye, turned around and went out. He rushed up and suddenly woke up in the room. With a glance from the corner of his eye, he saw Chu Xia and Yu Yunjun still patrolling nervously.
And the paper on one case was charred black, which was clear evidence. I thought to myself: "Fortunately, I was prepared."
He didn't wake them up at the moment, he just said: "System!"
The plum blossom in front of me quickly enlarged and turned into a translucent information frame, floating in the field of vision with a faint sense of light, and the mission was revealed.
"Yin Shen: The Seventh Level (188.7%)"
Pei Ziyun was secretly shocked: "Withdrawing the mark, it has increased a lot."
As soon as I clicked it, I felt that the spiritual energy was hanging down and being continuously absorbed by the Yin God. The eighth level had been reached. Sitting there, I felt the induction of the earth, and the slightest trace of invisible earth energy was absorbed and transformed.
"It turns out that deregistration is recognized by the earth. No wonder he will be called an earth immortal from now on!"
