274 Lonely Journey to the Underworld Meets Hungry Ghosts
When Gou Zhu woke up, the nightmarish choking sensation caused by the simultaneous entry of his mouth and nose into the water finally disappeared. It wasn't that he hadn't seen the strength of the Void Dan Cultivator. Back then, he also directly faced Gu Wentian's body. But even so, there has never been such a feeling of powerlessness.
The realm of the old man who made the water escape was obviously inferior to Gu Wentian. But as soon as this water polo technique came out, he immediately lost all resistance and could only be kneaded by others. It can be seen that the characteristics of the magic spells are different, and the effects brought by them are also very different. The most important thing about the Five Elements Sect's Five Elements Escape Technique is the change of the five elements, which makes people dizzy, and grasps the opponent's weakness to instantly control the enemy.
Fortunately, he only choked on water and fell into a coma, and was not injured. Struggling to get up, there is nothing unusual about the body, but what the hell is this place?
It wasn't until Zhong Dou transmitted the sound that he realized that he had been sent into the underworld by the people of Cloud Heaven.
"These grandsons of Cloud Heaven, are they all crazy?" Gou Zhu was extremely puzzled in his heart. He had never seen such a strange force that was deliberately against them for no reason. They were just passing by and did not pose any threat to Cloud Heaven. But the other party is desperate to attack himself, is he interested in what he has in his hands?
He subconsciously touched it, and his immortal lotus was still there, and it was not lost. He was careful to transmit the sound of the wood again, and asked him if the fairy lotus on his body was still there. The core of the Tree Emperor, he secretly put it in the immortal lotus on the wood.
"Well, it's hung on my chest and never touched!" replied the wood, nonchalantly. In fact, Wood was different from him, Wood had never been knocked unconscious by magic, so how could he lose something and not know it? Unless a thief like him intervened.
From this point of view, it is very likely that this matter has nothing to do with the Gu Clan. Because if the ancient clan robbed halfway, what they wanted to seize would definitely be the core of the Tree Emperor, and they would definitely not let go of everyone's immortal lotus. Cloud Heaven and these people threw them into the underworld, I don't know if it was to delay time or destroy the evidence?
It is impossible for the disciples who came out of the Jade Palace not to bring the sound transmission jade slip. If there was a conflict in Cloud Heaven, it would be natural for them to send a message for help with Jade Jane. It seems that Yun Heaven will throw them into the underworld precisely because he wants to delay time, so that the reinforcements can't find anyone for a while.
"By the way, Huang Lu ......" The most strange thing is that Huang Lu has never been able to contact him. Not replying to Transsion, this is not her style.
But Huang Lu didn't die. Hook and soul breath imprint remained on her consciousness. Now he could still feel the imprint, which meant that her consciousness was still there. The consciousness of the dead will re-enter samsara, and all the imprints will be cleansed by karma.
If the distance was close, he could even communicate directly with Huang Lu's divine sense. But now it's too far away to do that.
A bad premonition floated in Gou Zhu's heart: "It's not good! It's not a vendetta, it's a robbery, it's a robbery, isn't it a robbery? Isn't it that the young master of Cloud Heaven has taken a fancy to his junior sister's hue......
If he wants to guess like this, in fact, it is not far from the truth. It's just that how could he know that the young master of Cloud Heaven has been lying in bed for more than ten years, and it is the young master who has taken a fancy to Huang Lu's body?
If Yun Heaven really made this move, then what he was most worried about was to make a feud with the Jade Palace. Therefore, it is easiest to send them into the underworld and let them get lost and die. A trespass is the best reason to die.
He tried to get in touch with Bai Xuan. It stands to reason that Bai Xuanjue is the acting elder of the inner courtyard of the Jade Palace, and it is the best choice for him to come forward and negotiate with Yun Heaven in this matter. But Bai Xuanjue never heard back. I don't know if he deliberately chose to ignore it, or if he was drunk and dreamed of death in a certain green building, he couldn't hear any transmission for a long time.
In fact, he has another choice, which is to wake up Lian Ling, who is sleeping in his body. Lian Ling, as the Jindan goddess, led them out of this cave, even if it was razing the cloud heaven, it was only a thought.
But in order to deal with the ghost Xuanyin and the Five Elements Sect behind him, Lian Ling has been lurking, and the world does not know that Biluo of the Jade Palace has returned, and he has also been promoted to Jindan.
Now that he is in the Underworld, this is also the territory of Cloud Heaven, and no one knows if the other party has any means of surveillance. Once Lian Ling's identity is revealed, the dark plan she painstakingly arranged will be scrapped.
Gou Zhu thought about it carefully, whether he called Lian Ling or not, he had to find Huang Lu first. Otherwise, even if Lian Ling is here, this cave is so vast, it would be in vain not to know Huang Lu's location. On the contrary, if Lian Ling appeared and was discovered by the people of Cloud Heaven, they would be in trouble if they immediately destroyed the corpse.
If the other party's purpose is to rob the color - the robbery is gone early, and the life is temporarily worry-free.
But the other party definitely can't calculate a little, that is, Huang Lu's divine sense has his soul mark on it, and he can sense the other party's location! As long as he quietly finds Huang Lu's location first, whether it is to summon Lian Ling, or Zhong Dou is there, or he joins forces with Mu Tou and the Nineteenth to fight to the death, he can rescue her.
It's just that the sense is quite faint, like a little light in the night sky, a few miles away.
"Has anyone seen the ghost phosphorus fire I released?" Zhong Dou asked from time to time.
"I saw a large crowd, in mid-air, floating by, uncountable......," Wood replied.
"Don't go over!" Zhong Dou hurriedly warned, "It's a floating ghost fire, which will suck people's souls according to the breath of the living." Hold your breath until they dissipate!" Then he couldn't hear the sound of the wood, he really held his breath.
Gou Zhu didn't see the hordes of ghost fires, he saw a person, standing around the corner of the cave he was going through.
The man was not tall and had a strange build. Standing there like a rock. If it weren't for the fact that Gou Zhu took a second look when he approached, he almost took this person for a rock.
The place where Gou Zhu is located is a blind hole. A short walk behind is a dead end, there is no exit at all, only stones that rise and fall like muscles. The only glimmer of blue light came from the direction of the strange man. He also had to go in this direction, getting closer and closer.
The other party has a heavy breath, obviously a living person. But there is no aura fluctuation on his body, and he is not a monk. But he had a strange belly hanging from him, like a pregnant woman, and he stood there. Gou Zhu walked there, his face facing there.
When he was close to the third part, the man suddenly raised his head and sent it to both sides. Under the blue glow, Gou Zhu didn't see his eyes, only saw a large black mouth, opened with an incredible width, a few fangs flashed with cold light, and a strange howl came out of his throat, and he bit it quickly.
Of course, Gou Zhu was prepared for a long time. No matter what this monster was, if there were no aura fluctuations and just a mortal body, there would be no threat to him, a seven-fold foundation cultivator. Sure enough, as soon as this thing came to him, it stopped. The Hellfire Sword in Gou Zhu's hand pointed directly at the other party, and it had already pierced the other party's throat.
At this distance, you can see that this thing is by no means human, but just very similar.
It had no human clothing, and it didn't even look like it had skin, and it was horribly fleshy. His hair and body looked like a very human, but he had a huge belly, like a huge stone hanging from his abdomen.
The mouth was open enough to occupy half of the face, but there were only teeth in the mouth, not a throat. Above the sharp mouth, there are no nostrils, only a pair of eyes the size of eggs, staring at Gouzhu, the eyes are full of longing and greed.
"It's actually a hungry ghost!" Although Gou Zhu had never seen this thing, he had heard a detailed introduction when he heard the sermon in the first-level military academy.
The Hungry Ghost is one of the six realms. Entering the path of hungry ghosts, he is entangled in bad karma, and his mind has no spiritual mind, only a strong thirst for food. The mouth is very big, the belly is very big, but the throat is as thin as the eye of a needle, and you can't eat or drink, and you can only starve after all.
This thing is found in both the human and underworld. If you are in the human world, you can only hide in the shadows to survive, and you will die when you see the sun. Even in the dark, cut by the yang energy of the human world, they are like light smoke, almost untouchable. They will only seek out the filthy qi of the human world to feed on, and will never actively attack people.
But here, the yin qi in the Xuanyin and Underworld Cave is strong, and the body of the hungry ghost has become substantial like a human body. Seeing a living Yuanyang body here, of course, it couldn't contain its appetite, which was actually impossible to satisfy.
On the other hand, if a mortal enters the cave and is blown by the wind of Xuanyin in the cave, it will also cause the yang energy to be lost and turn into dust and smoke. The foundation building monks can maintain immortality for the time being, but they must also continue to replenish yang energy with pure yang pills. Once the Pure Yang Pill is exhausted, sooner or later it will also be wiped out.
The hungry ghost was pierced through his throat by the Stygian Sword, but he didn't die instantly. It made a strange grunt in its throat, and it grabbed the blade of the sword with its own hand, and continued to pull its body forward, as if it did not feel any pain, not caring about the blade sliding in its throat, only longing to get closer to the delicacy in front of it.
Gou Zhu sighed, thinking that it was reincarnation for eternity, and he didn't want to fall into this hungry ghost path. At this time, the Xuanyin True Fire in his body moved at will, leaping up from the sword. The greed in the hungry ghost's eyes immediately turned into fear.
But it hadn't withdrawn from the sword yet, and the bright and dazzling white flames in the darkness immediately engulfed its entire body!
