Yingying couldn't help but secretly look at the lightning pattern on Su Yun's forehead. Taking advantage of the Great Immortal Prince Yu's unpreparedness, she whispered, "Scholar, what's going on?"
What she was asking was about the eye between Su Yun's eyebrows that helped restore Prince Yu's nails, but Su Yun was also confused about this matter.
The Great Immortal Lord Jade Prince raised his finger and pointed at his forehead. Light shone out from the lightning pattern on his forehead, removing the calamity stone on the Great Immortal Lord Jade Prince's fingernails.
His original plan was actually to go to the Imperial Court's First Blessed Land to collect some innate Qi, and let Prince Jade take it and refine it, so as to slowly reduce his calamity and transformation to ashes.
As for how to cure it, it still requires Dong Shenwang to continue to study. But what he didn't expect was that the thunder pattern on his forehead actually cured a fingernail of the Great Immortal Prince Yu!
Prince Yu gave three oath-taking stones to Su Yun. Su Yun took a look and found that they were indeed the knuckles of the Chaos Emperor, but for some reason, there were no chaos runes on them.
"There is no heaven and earth energy here. Let's slowly explore it when we get to the outside world."
Su Yun was taken into his own spiritual world. As for the oath he had made earlier, there was no need to repeat it. Previously, their agreement was that Prince Yu would work for Su Yun, and Su Yun would take him out of the eighteenth floor of the underworld, and then the two would go their separate ways. But now Prince Yu would follow Su Yun until Su Yun cured him, and the three oath stones would be his reward for curing him.
"So, are you sure you can cure him?" Yingying asked quietly when she saw Su Yun put away the oath stone without changing his expression.
Su Yun shook his head calmly and said in a low voice, "When I healed his nails just now, I felt that most of the energy in the thunder pattern on his forehead was consumed. Seeing things with the thunder pattern has become more blurry."
Yingying was startled, feeling both sympathy and gloating: "Scholar, your lightning pattern grows by absorbing the power of the heavenly tribulation. It looks like you're going to be struck a few more times."
Su Yun felt a pang of pain in his flesh. It would be fine if he could accumulate enough strength by being hit a few more times, but the key point was that a few times were not enough!
If one wants to completely heal Prince Yu and restore his physical body, he would probably have to be chopped tens of thousands of times!
Even if the thunder pattern is constantly growing, the number of lightning strikes required may be much less than Su Yun speculated. However, he shuddered at the thought of the power of purple thunder.
"In order to obtain a few fragments of Chaos Emperor's body parts, you have to risk your life." He shook his head.
He had no intention of breaking his promise. He had promised Prince Yu that he would do his best to fulfill it.
Above Emperor Shu's body, each immortal spirit mobilized their remaining magic power to remove the ash accumulated on Emperor Shu's body. Although the immortals had great magical powers, the ash accumulated on Emperor Shu's body was too thick. Even with the existence of Prince Yu, it took two days to move all the ash.
"We have been delayed for so long, I'm afraid that Emperor Shu's brain has been taken away by the Emperor of the Underworld for sacrifice?" Yingying muttered.
Su Yun comforted him, “If Emperor Shu’s brain was so easy to kill, he would have died long ago.”
Bai Ze nodded and said, "Last time when Emperor Shu's Brain escaped, Emperor Mingdu was unable to do anything to him, which shows the vitality of Emperor Shu's Brain."
Yingying was still a little worried, always feeling that Emperor Shu's brain would be captured. The immortals sprinkled some chopped green onions on it, poured some hot oil on it, and made it into brain flower to enjoy.
Su Yun stood in the bronze talisman and continued to fly forward along the decayed body of Emperor Shu. A large part of Emperor Shu's body had turned into ash stone.
Su Yun flew from Di Shu's head to his feet and couldn't help frowning.
There was no sign of flesh and blood on Emperor Shu's body anymore, and all he could see was ashes!
This kind of transformation into ashes is different from that of Prince Jade.
Prince Yu's body transformed into a monster, but still retained some activity, just like Yuan Shuo's ash monster back then. However, Emperor Shu's body turned into ash and had no activity!
The bronze talisman was getting slower and slower. Su Yun looked forward and saw that the complete body of Emperor Shu was extremely huge, stretching for countless miles. However, this huge body no longer had any flesh and blood, and was completely turned into ash.
"Emperor Shu's skull can be transformed into the most precious treasure, the Immortal Burning Furnace. Could it be that this kind of physical body cannot withstand the invasion of the ashes of catastrophe?" Su Yun felt a chill in his heart.
Bai Ze murmured, "Has Emperor Shu's body been completely destroyed? Even if we rescue this body, it will probably be useless. Without his body, Emperor Shu will not be able to lead us out of Hades..."
Su Yun was silent, feeling increasingly depressed.
Emperor Shu is now in a difficult situation. He was able to escape from the Underworld in the past because Bai Ze was exiling his "good friends" to the Underworld. Now that no one has opened the Underworld, Emperor Shu naturally cannot escape.
If Di Shu cannot escape, Su Yun and others, even if they have the bronze talisman, will find it difficult to escape the clutches of Lord Sang and Emperor Mingdu!
Only by rescuing Di Shu's body can we rescue Su Yun and others!
But now, Emperor Shu's body has completely turned to ashes, and the fate that awaits Su Yun and others can be imagined.
The bronze talisman stopped unconsciously and Su Yun fell into deep thought.
Some immortal spirits living in Emperor Shu's flesh suddenly said, "An earthquake is coming! Hurry up and protect our immortal residence!"
The other fairies laughed at their stupidity and said, "We are going to leave here soon and live freely. Do we really need a mansion made of ashes?"
At this moment, the earth suddenly shook violently, and the ground shook. After a long time, the earthquake slowly subsided.
Su Yun looked up in surprise, showing an expression of disbelief, and hurriedly summoned a fairy to ask, "What was the earthquake just now?"
The fairy said, "It's just an earthquake!"
Su Yun asked: "How did you know there was going to be an earthquake?"
The fairy said: "Every fairy living here knows that the eighteenth floor of the Underworld will vibrate once every year. This time is no exception."
Su Yun's eyes widened, his breathing gradually quickened, and he hurriedly shouted: "Prince Yu! Prince Yu! Dig! Bring people to dig down! Peel off Emperor Shujie's ashes-turned body for me!"
Prince Yu was resting with a few Jiehui Immortals. Upon hearing this, they quickly stood up and flapped their wings to fly over.
A Jiehui Immortal said, "He asked us to dig out Emperor Shu's body from the Jiehui, and now he wants us to peel Emperor Shu apart. Great Immortal, is this person trustworthy?"
Prince Yu said, "Only this man can heal us. No matter how unreliable what he asks us to do is, we must do it!"
Many immortal monsters and the ash-turned fairies started to peel off Emperor Shujie's body, which had turned into ashes. Strangely enough, Emperor Shujie's body, which had turned into ashes, was like a thousand-layer cake, with layers of outer skin. When you peel off one layer, there was another layer inside. When you peel off another layer, there was a third layer inside!
Bai Ze and Yingying went to check the ashes they had peeled off, and saw that there were clear boundaries between the layers of the ashes, which were extremely smooth but irregular.
Bai Ze immediately saw the clue and murmured, "If you peel off the outer layer of Emperor Shu's skin, there will be a smaller Emperor Shu inside. If you peel it again, you can peel out an even smaller Emperor Shu. If you peel it layer by layer, the Emperor Shu inside will become smaller and smaller... Is Emperor Shu using this method to avoid being completely turned into ashes by the eighteen layers of the underworld?"
Yingying was also stunned and murmured: "Emperor Shu's method is more like a thousand-layer eggshell..."
Her description is more apt.
Being imprisoned at this time, Di Shu must have found it difficult to control the transformation of his physical body into ashes, but he could control his own body.
After the outer layer of his body turned to ash, he used it as an eggshell and created another self inside the eggshell. After the second layer of himself turned to ash, he used it as an eggshell to protect himself and created a third layer of himself.
This cycle repeats itself over and over, constantly giving birth to itself, forming layer upon layer of eggshells!
This method of saving life requires sacrificing most of the physical body, but it is possible to preserve the integrity of the physical body!
Su Yun's eyes flashed as he flew around, commanding the fairies, monsters, and the ash-digging fairies to dig out the ash layer formed by Emperor Shu's body.
More than ten days later, the fairies and the ash-turned fairies had peeled off more than six hundred layers of the ash-turned body shell, and the body of Emperor Shu inside the shell had shrunk to a size of more than a thousand miles.
However, the body of Emperor Shu inside had already turned into ash stone.
Compared to his previous huge body, Emperor Shu's body is now negligible.
"Dig another layer!" Su Yun said loudly.
The fairies and the Jiehui fairies worked mechanically. Prince Yu took out the hard Jiehui stone and hit Emperor Shu's body with the tip of the stone. Another layer of Jiehui was peeled off.
"Prince!"
Prince Yu was suddenly surprised and delighted, and shouted loudly: "Prince Su! Come quickly!"
Su Yun hurried forward and saw fair skin under the layer of ash. Under the skin, one could even see blood vessels and blood flowing in them!
"Open it carefully!"
Su Yun laughed loudly and said, "Gentlemen, we are saved! Quickly open this shell! Be careful not to hurt the Emperor Shu inside!"
Bai Ze and Ying Ying could hardly suppress their excitement and hurried forward to help. When the last layer of skin was peeled off, a young man who was eight hundred miles tall was lying quietly among the layers of skin.
The layers of skin formed by his flesh were like his coffin, protecting him inside.
However, he is a brainless person.
His head had been opened and there was nothing inside his skull.
His brain was naturally the brain of Emperor Shu, and his skull was also taken away and turned into the Wanhua Immortal Burning Furnace.
Emperor Shu used amazing means to preserve the integrity of his body as much as possible, but his skull and brain were the only things that could not be shrunk and regenerated.
Yingying asked curiously, "This Emperor Shu's body is too small, and his head is not big either. Can it contain Emperor Shu's brain?"
Su Yun said: "This is Di Shu's own problem."
The Great Immortal Lord Jiehui, Prince Yu, carefully lifted up Emperor Shu's physical body. Su Yun activated the bronze talisman as much as he could. The talisman became bigger and bigger. Gradually, green air filled the area around the talisman, making it look like a hollow finger bone!
Prince Yu lifted up Emperor Shu's body and flew towards the finger bone.
Su Yun tried his best to boost his cultivation, and even mobilized the innate Qi of the five organs, and only then was he able to barely maintain the flight of the bronze talisman.
"Call everyone up!"
Su Yun struggled to maintain the bronze talisman and shouted, "Today, you are free!"
On the eighteenth floor of the underworld, fairies flew in one after another and entered the talisman. Prince Yu was filled with emotion and silently looked down at the darkness below.
"We are finally going to see the light of day again. Revenge for our father..." His eyes flickered, and there was a fire of disaster burning quietly in his eyes.
Countless chaos runes flowed outside the bronze rune, slowly increasing the speed of the rune. Su Yun tried his best to maintain the flight of the rune. The rune accelerated for a long time before increasing its speed to the extreme!
Su Yun gritted his teeth and mobilized the runes. Suddenly, the bronze rune vibrated violently, and an endless light suddenly appeared in front of him, like billions of rays of light rushing towards him!
"call out-"
The sky on the eighteenth floor of the underworld shook like jelly, and when it calmed down, the bronze talisman had disappeared.
At the same time, the sky of the seventeenth floor of the Hades shook like jelly, and a giant finger a thousand miles long suddenly appeared in the sky of the seventeenth floor of the Hades!
Su Yun stood at the tip of the finger, looked up at the sky, and said in a deep voice: "Prince Yu, please ask Di Shu to come out!"
Prince Yu hurriedly lifted up Emperor Shu's physical body and slowly threw out the bronze talisman.
In the sky, Lord Sang and Emperor Mingdu were still fighting, attacking Emperor Shu's brain together. However, Emperor Shu's brain had changed its strategy and switched to defense.
Emperor Shu's brain is in danger.
At this moment, Emperor Shu's brainless body suddenly flew up and rushed towards the sky!
Yingying was more excited than anyone else. She held a pen and paper, waiting to see how the huge brain of Emperor Shu would enter the head of Emperor Shu's physical body.
Su Yun had no time to ask about these things, and said to the immortals and the Jiehui Immortal: "Gentlemen, you are free."
Those immortal monsters and the Jiehuixian were overjoyed and were about to leave when Su Yun suddenly continued, "Even if I take you away from the 18th floor, there are still 17 floors ahead that you need to pass. However, I can show you a way with a higher chance of survival."
The fairy monsters and the robbery gray fairy all stopped and looked at him.
Su Yun said meaningfully: "The Dark City is a prison. In addition to you, there are many serious criminals imprisoned on each floor."
