Du Ruo's current realm is a little weird.

She has been cultivating diligently all these years, although because there is no suitable method, she can only use the method of "absorbing yin qi", which is so rough that people want to sigh, but how pure the yin qi of the Heavenly Book World Realm is! In addition, with the guidance of the two masters, Jasmine and Du Xin, from time to time, they have also achieved quite a lot.

Being able to control a large number of ghosts to search for flowers in all directions is a good proof of this.

There is such a thing as ghosts, and the gap in "level" is very obvious. The high-level faces the low-level, there is a kind of coercion in the spirit, and there is no need for any additional means, just a thought can command the other party. Like the head wolf of a pack of wolves or the monkey king of a pack of monkeys.

If she is at a higher level, she can even directly control those low-level ghosts with her mind and turn them directly into her own clones.

Of course, Du Ruo would not do that, and that kind of practice was not in line with her moral values.

She didn't send all the ghosts out to search, but gathered some of the more powerful ones and looked closely.

Wu Xie knew that her intention was to find a suitable path for herself by studying how other ghosts grew.

According to what Jasmine and Du Xin know, there are about three ways for ghosts to grow:

The first is to grow by constantly devouring flesh and blood life, and this path is roughly a ghost king, a ghost emperor, and a ghost god. The Ghost King is equivalent to the realm of entering the Dao, the Ghost Emperor is equivalent to the realm of refining gang or condensing yuan, and the ghost god is equivalent to the realm of returning Dan.

It's just that the amount of power obtained by this cultivation method is too mixed, and there are too many resentments, and most of them can't escape the yin fire, even if they are lucky enough to survive the catastrophe of the yin fire, they will degenerate into heavenly demons and the like, if they are not killed by the heavenly thunder, they must also escape to the demon world - the Supreme Divine Monarch has done a lot of experiments back then, and the most reckless thinks that maybe the original heavenly demon came from this.

The second route is to continuously absorb and accumulate yin qi, and eventually the accumulated amount becomes a qualitative change, the yin pole generates yang, and a wisp of less yang fire is lit in the spiritual light, which can turn into a heavenly ghost, similar to the realm of heaven and man after the monk ascends. If you continue to accumulate like this, you will be able to turn yin into yang, and you will be able to become a god.

However, from ghosts to heavenly ghosts, Jasmine has seen a lot; From the Heavenly Ghost to the Heavenly God, even the small world that the Supreme God Monarch used to do experiments has never appeared!

The last route is to get the faith of the world, first from the ghost to the yin god, then the earth, and then a little bit of ascension, if you are lucky, you can also become a god. There are people who have walked this path - as long as they control a world realm and forcibly promote faith, they will definitely be able to cultivate ghosts to a level close to the level of heavenly gods, and as for whether they can rely on the power of faith to ignite the divine fire and become heavenly gods...... Anyway, if you do a few more experiments, you will always be successful......

Du Ruo initially grew by absorbing Yin Qi, but before she could decide to embark on the path of Heavenly Ghosts, she began to devour flesh and blood again, and the amount of devouring was very amazing, and finally grew to the point where she almost stepped into the realm of the Ghost King.

However, at this time, she stopped devouring flesh and blood, and began to concentrate on cultivating, only absorbing pure yin qi to increase her Dao Xing, and once again walked back to the path of heavenly ghosts.

If it was just like that, it would have been fine, but at the beginning, Wu Xie preached in the Dragon Temple as Du Ruo for several months, passed down a Taoist system, and gained a little Taoist luck. Because he used Du Ruo's identity, this Dao luck gave some profit to Du Ruo himself.

The Tao is the most mysterious of the five movements, and it is really wonderful. At the beginning, Changchun Zhenren almost completely dispersed Xiong Er's heavenly fortune with one person's Taoist luck, and even suppressed Wu Jie's fortune and Lin Lushan's literary fortune, so powerful, it is really incredible!

Although Du Ruo didn't get much Dao luck, it was enough to produce the effect of "faith", almost enough to make her a Yin God, so she embarked on a third path......

In the past ten years, she has walked back and forth on three roads, and has achieved a lot of results on each road, and even raised her level to the point where she can command a group of ghosts. But it made her path chaotic, not to mention that Du Xin couldn't see it, and even Jasmine didn't know which type she should be now.

Therefore, this trip to the nether world is also very meaningful for her - she hopes to find a truly suitable direction for herself by observing and studying other ghosts, clear her mind, and embark on a promising path.

As a powerful ghost, Du Ruo doesn't mind growing up by devouring flesh and blood, but she is quite dissatisfied with the results of the ghost king's path, and she doesn't want to become a heavenly demon in the end; She is willing to concentrate on cultivation, and she also likes the path of heavenly ghosts, but if the path of heavenly ghosts cannot be transformed from heavenly ghosts to heavenly gods, there is no way to live forever; As for the path of believing in the gods, she has no objection if she has the opportunity, the problem is that she herself doesn't know how to get enough faith in the Dao, and the step of igniting the divine fire at the end of the day is really a bit illusory......

"Don't you think that's too far away now?" Du Xin once asked, "Even if you can soar to the heavens, it doesn't mean that you can live forever and be immortal, why don't you lower your goals?" I think if you lower your goal to Ascension, the path will be much easier. ”

Du Ruo smiled and did not answer the question.

But Wu Xie could probably guess the reason why she had to pursue the path of immortality.

Wu Xie himself is sure to pursue immortality, if he can't succeed, everything will naturally stop, but if he succeeds...... When the time came, he gained eternal life and transcended the shackles of time, Du Ruo had always regarded himself as his sister, but he fell in front of time, was pulled away by him, and finally became a passerby on his road to immortality......

Her pride does not allow this to happen!

If Wu Xie has the ability to read minds, or if he can open a god's perspective, he may be able to see a little other thoughts from the depths of Du Ruo's heart, but unfortunately he doesn't know the Dao, and even Du Ruo himself doesn't know the Dao.

All in all, Du Ruo wants to cultivate immortality, so she is working hard.

Seeing her working so hard, Wu Xie couldn't help but strengthen her daily cultivation.

It has been nearly a year in the Netherworld Realm, he absorbs the yin qi every day, and through the sifting out of the magazines in the yin qi, the soul is constantly condensed, and now his soul has been basically formed, and it is almost impossible to see the slightest blur from a distance, only when he gets closer and looks carefully, he will occasionally see a little black qi and red light on his body.

Black gas is yin energy, and red light is real fire. When his soul can be condensed to the point that he can't even see the yin qi and true fire, no matter how you look at it, it is exactly the same as the flesh and blood, that is, the realm of the passage to the dark has finally been completed, and it can be considered to merge the yin and yang qi in order to cause the gangfeng.

Of course, this step was still far away, and even if his progress rate had already surpassed that of ordinary monks, it would take at least three or five years.

Cultivation is like climbing a mountain, the more you go to the top of the mountain, the more difficult it becomes, for example, a little bit of Taoism may only need a little effort at the beginning of the realm to obtain, but the little bit that is needed before the great perfection of a realm often requires hundreds of times and thousands of times of effort.

I don't know how many monks in the Dao have confused their Dao hearts and become impetuous, or take shortcuts, or try to break through by force. The results are often very tragic, there are those who go mad, there are those who have an unstable foundation and cannot move forward, and there are those who have fallen into the evil path......

Cultivation is a difficult and rugged road, and no matter how good the conditions are, hard work and patience are the key in the end—and of course, a little luck is also indispensable.

Wu Xie has had good luck in the past few days, and the ghosts sent by Du Ruo reported that they found a small river formed by yin qi in the distance, and there were many flowers blooming on the river beach!

Wu Xie and Du Ruo were overjoyed, and hurriedly rushed over there, seeing that the river beach decorated with dotted flowers on the other side was already in sight, but Du Ruo suddenly stopped and grabbed Wu Jie.

She used a lot of force, so much that Wu Xie stumbled and almost fell to the ground.

"What's wrong?"

"Something is wrong!" Du Ruo looked at the river beach nervously, and even breathed a little heavier, "That river beach...... It feels very problematic for me! ”

Wu Xie was stunned for a moment and looked towards the river beach, but he didn't see the slightest problem.

It was a shallow river, with black water condensed by yin qi flowing in it, and the gentle riverbed was covered with gravel on both sides, and in the rubble, small blue flowers grew dotted with stars.

These little flowers are emitting a faint light, illuminating the gloom of the river beach, and making people feel so refreshed that they can't help but want to get out of the river and take a closer look at them.

"Looks like it's fine......"

"It's just no problem, it's really a problem!" Du Ruo's expression became more and more solemn, "The other side flower is formed by the fusion of the pleasure and yin energy of the ghosts' 'liberation', so many ghosts who are not very obsessed like to live in a place where the other side flower is open. These days, we almost see ghosts like that everywhere we pick flowers on the other side...... But you see, there are so many flowers on the other side of the river beach in front, but there are not many ghosts in sight, this is not normal! ”

Although Wu Xie has read a lot of notes from his predecessors, he is a living person after all, not a dead person, and he is far less clear about many things in the Netherworld Realm than Du Ruo, a ghost.

So he believed Du Ruo's opinion, so he couldn't help frowning, and looked at the river beach carefully, trying to find some clues.

"It's not impossible for two masters to fight there, scaring or destroying the ghosts; Or maybe some evil spirits pass by and eat all the ghosts here. Wu Xie shook his head as he spoke, "No! There is no sign of a fight or cast. ”

"yes, it doesn't seem like there's any problem, it's just that a lot of ghosts are gone." Du Ruo didn't let go of his hand, and pulled Wu Xie to slowly retreat back, "This place is weird!" Fourth, let's go! Don't get into trouble! ”

Wu Xie nodded and accepted her opinion.

Although he was curious about the riverbank, he would never joke with his own life!

Both of them are masters, even if they are regressing, they are not slow to walk, and they are about to move away from the river beach.

At this moment, Wu Xie felt an extremely strong alarm!

The shallow water jerked up, and a black shadow flew up from the bottom of the river and rushed towards them. Before he arrived, there was a strong air of greed and resentment like a rancid stench.

It's a demon lurking at the bottom of the river!
