655 Obtaining the Legacy
Obtaining the Legacy
All was silent except for the roars of the Gravekeeper Beast. Fortunately, the river and Beiyin Mountain had suppressed it, or else the Gravekeeper Beast would have fled.
The Gravekeeper Beast’s outer shell cracked open, and its body kept shrinking. In the end, it was sent into the endless hell by Beiyin Mountain, never to be reincarnated.
“There should be no one else.” Yang Kang pointed to the underground hole.
Before becoming immortal, everything would be obliterated until they died.
Even the terrifying Gravekeeper Beast that had once suppressed the Netherworld of Chu Land would lose its power as time passed.
Since the Gravekeeper Beast was like this, the other guardians probably didn’t survive.
The three of them walked into the depths of the ground and followed the pitch-black hole to the bottom.
The weather around them began to turn cold, and the wind howled, howling like ghosts and howling like wolves.
The unknown ahead made people feel fear. Even He Chuan was not confident.
The Great and Little Si Ming’s headquarters, the depths of the Netherworld, who knows what demons and ghosts are waiting for them.
The power of fear should have come from this place. It made people feel fear and then be swallowed by death.
The group walked to the end of the underground area. In front of them was a bronze door.
The door was tightly shut. It was covered with moss and was carved with the unique auspicious cloud patterns of Chu Land. It was mottled with rust and gave off a sense of vicissitudes.
A thick layer of dust fell from the door. It had been a long time since anyone had left.
“This is the Door of Longevity. Once you open this door, you will obtain the inheritance of the Great and Little Si Ming. Be careful.” Yang Kang warned.
He Chuan cautiously looked around and casually summoned a few ghosts and gods from the mountain.
The ghosts and gods came to the bronze door and shouted as they slowly pushed the door open.
As the bronze door opened, cold air blew in.
The interior was pitch black, and there was no magnificent palace as he had imagined. Compared to the Netherworld, it seemed very simple.
Tai Chi floated in the center of the palace.
The left side was black, and the right side was white.
They were like two Yin Yang fish that were constantly rotating and transforming. They were filled with contradiction and harmony.
Life and death, Yin and Yang.
Tai Chi continued to transform, revealing the truth of the operation of all things in the world.
When He Chuan saw this item, he immediately confirmed that it was what he wanted.
If he could fuse it into Beiyin Mountain and cut it off from the Netherworld, he might really become the Lord of the Netherworld.
Thinking of this, He Chuan flew forward, crossed the bronze door, and came in front of Tai Chi to hold it.
In an instant, the Innate Creation Wood Avatar appeared behind him. The five elements revolved around He Chuan. Coupled with the Yin Yang Life and Death Tai Chi, the five elements of Yin Yang were instantly complete.
An ancient ballad rang in his ears, and Si Ming’s life flashed before his eyes.
Great Si Ming was the god of life and death, while Little Si Ming was the goddess of vitality.
The two of them controlled life and death, which was the foundation of reincarnation.
Compared to the Netherworld, it was still too crude. Although there were more reincarnation options, it did not have many functions like the Netherworld.
There were no other ghosts, gods, or netherworld. There were only two people and one beast.
Now, with He Chuan’s Hell and the various underworld, it was like adding wings to a tiger.
“How is it?” Yang Kang asked.
“Not quite.” He Chuan felt that he was still a step away from completely mastering the Yin Yang Tai Chi.
“I’m the same. Next, I’ll take it from Taiyi.”
The ruler of Chu was an existence that gathered all the power in his body.
He Chuan nodded.
Yama King would definitely make a move as well, which would cause a conflict with the other forces. This was the best opportunity for He Chuan to escape. Just as the three of them were about to leave, a voice came from outside the door.
“This is the Netherworld of Chu Land!”
Noises came from outside the bronze door.
Then, three figures flew down. They wore black official robes and crowns. Their faces were like white jade, and they had white hair and youthful faces.
The clothes were shockingly similar. The patterns on the clothes were ancient and elegant, like hieroglyphic characters.
The words that had been abandoned for hundreds of thousands of years appeared on their bodies. It felt like the ancients had been resurrected.
The person in the lead stepped on a fiery cloud, and his jade-like skin had fiery patterns.
The person on the right was riding two fierce tigers, one on each leg. The third person looked ordinary, with a gourd hanging from his waist.
“Chi Songzi, are you sure you didn’t hear wrongly? How can this place be the Netherworld?” The man riding on the two tigers could not believe it. Chu Land was a place that was on par with the Yin Ruins countless years ago. Even the imperial capital was afraid of the Eastern Emperor Taiyi.
The Great and Little Si Ming had the power of life and death that even the imperial capital coveted. Why was there only a broken door in front of them?
“Do you think I’m deaf?” The person standing on the fire cloud looked unhappy as if he was dissatisfied with the doubts about him.
The person with the gourd hanging from his waist did not pay attention to the quarrel. Instead, he looked around cautiously!
“Be careful, someone might have been here.”
There were traces of a fight nearby. From the traces, it should have happened not long ago.
“Very few people know about this place.” Chi Songzi said.
He Chuan and the others behind the door heard it very clearly.
Chi Songzi and the others were from the Yin Ruins in the North! He Chuan looked at Yang Kang beside him.
His expression became serious as he realized something. He was afraid that it was not the two of them, but the “Emperor” they were talking about.
Could it be that a big shot who was as famous as Taiyi and ancient times was really alive?
If he was still alive, no one would be able to do anything to him. Even the Yama King would have to obediently run away with his tail between his legs.
The world had five systems, Penglai in the east, Kunlun in the west, Chu in the south, Yin Ruins in the north, and the Five Emperors of the Central Plains.
There wasn’t much difference between the Main Gods of the different systems. No one could do anything to the other, and they didn’t disturb each other in their own territories.
Countless years ago, Taiyi and the Heavenly Emperor fought for supremacy. The battle between the two sides spread across myriad worlds and crossed the river of time since ancient times. In the end, several major factions were involved.
According to He Chuan’s knowledge, the war had almost destroyed the Heavenly Dao, which was also the reason why cultivation had declined to this day.
In the past, before the Great Dao collapsed, the cultivation world was generally moving forward. As time went on, new divine arts and spells were constantly being invented.
After the collapse of the Great Dao, the atmosphere in the cultivation world became more ancient. The more ancient things were, the better. On the contrary, modern things were worse.
It wasn’t because modern people didn’t know how to create new things, but because the Great Dao had collapsed and the level of the entire world had declined, making it difficult to seize.
“Cut the crap. Let’s talk inside.” The person with the gourd hanging from his waist spoke.
“Don’t think that you can speak loudly at me with your age. I’m not your subordinate!” Chi Songzi was furious.
“It’s just a few testaments, and you dare to challenge me? I’m telling you, even if the Emperor wakes up now, I’ll still beat you up!” The gourd on Peng Zu’s waist flew up and spun in the air. The stopper of the pot was opened.
In an instant, the world dimmed as if all the light had been absorbed by the gourd.
The powerful suction force seemed to want to swallow the world.
The person on the fire dragon saw this and quickly inserted himself between the two.
“Deal with the matter at hand first. If there’s any conflict, we’ll resolve it later.”
“Huo Yun, I advise you not to be a busybody.” Peng Zu still put away his divine art.
Seeing this, Chi Songzi snorted coldly and did not retort.
The atmosphere instantly became a little awkward. In the end, Huo Yun was the first to speak, suggesting that they enter the bronze door first to retrieve the item.
