The misty rain dissipated and light came.
The world in front of Lin Xiu suddenly changed and revealed the stone steps that led to a higher place.
Without thinking, he strode up and climbed about 50 steps. The stone steps began to emit a faint green light and bursts of coercion began to envelop Lin Xiu.
In the end, Lin Xiu was forced to stop. The stone steps he was on happened to be the 333rd step.
A deafening voice came from the stone steps, "Intruder, heaven and earth are heartless and treat all living things as dogs. If the world bullies you and humiliates you, what should you do?"
Lin Xiu didn't even think and said directly, "Heaven and earth are heartless, so I advise people to be kind. If the world bullies me and humiliates me, I will return it tenfold."
After saying that, the world fell into silence again and there was no sound for a long time. Lin Xiu didn't know if his answer satisfied the unknown existence, but he knew very well that this was the path he wanted to take.
Heaven and earth were things that no one could change, but if someone dared to bully him, he would definitely return it in a myriad of ways. Of course, if he had enough strength, he believed that no one would dare to bully him.
After this question and answer, Lin Xiu felt that his thoughts were extremely clear and he had a rough idea of the path he wanted to take in the future. It was nothing more than to continue to be strong.
Lord Feng Huo once told him that if the world had ill intentions towards him, he should endure it for the time being. When he had enough strength to change everything, he would return all the suffering he had experienced to the world.
If people don't offend me, I won't offend them. If people offend me, I will punch them!
Unknowingly, the color of the stone steps began to become a little bright yellow and it was warm when it shone on people.
Lin Xiu, who was shrouded in this light, felt that his injuries from using Traceless Wind were recovering rapidly and even his elemental energy was becoming more abundant.
After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, his injuries were almost healed and his elemental energy was restored to its peak. There was even a faint improvement.
After secretly sighing at the mystical place, Lin Xiu looked at the end of the stone steps with a firm gaze. He suddenly wanted to see the scenery at the top of the mountain, not for the treasures, but just to take a look.
Lin Xiu adjusted his breathing rhythm and under the bright yellow light, he looked like a young god as he walked forward with firm steps.
As the stars shifted, the stone steps seemed to have no end and Lin Xiu continued to walk forward.
After an unknown period of time, a chessboard suddenly appeared in front of him. The two people playing on the two sides of the chessboard looked very ordinary. One was an old man dressed in a white robe, and even his hair was snow-white. The other person was completely black, and his face was also covered by a black mist, making it difficult to see him clearly.
Neither of them paid attention to Lin Xiu, who came out of nowhere, but was thinking hard about the situation on the chessboard.
Lin Xiu walked aimlessly on the stone steps and had long lost the concept of time. He walked alone and suddenly saw two strange old men playing chess here. He couldn't help but be curious, so he stopped and stood quietly behind the white-robed old man, watching the game without saying a word.
"Nine Nether, why are you so stubborn? Is it really that hard to admit defeat?" The white-robed old man finally broke the silence on the chessboard and couldn't help but ask as he looked at the black-robed man opposite him.
The black-robed man snorted coldly. The voice of the black-robed man seemed to come from the ninth level of the Netherworld, causing Lin Xiu to shiver all over, "Elder Bai, why do you ask when you already know the answer? My Netherworld Palace has been passed down for tens of thousands of years, and countless geniuses have emerged during this period. It took us so long to get a chance to break through, how can we give in? "
When the white-robed old man heard this, his hands couldn't stop trembling, and a shocking aura soared into the sky. He shouted at the black-robed Nine Nether, "Ridiculous, using the lives and deaths of countless people in the Immortal Martial Continent in exchange for a chance to break through, how is your behavior any different from the demonic path?"
"Hehe, Elder Bai, my Netherworld Palace is a demonic path, what can you do to me?" Nine Nether didn't care and laughed strangely.
"Presumptuous, since that's the case, let's use this chess game to decide life and death. Use our lives as the wager, don't implicate the lives of the disciples." After saying this, the white-robed old man waved his sleeves and the chessboard on the stone table suddenly shone brightly. A strong suction force came from it and pulled the two of them in.
Lin Xiu, who was standing at the side, looked at the empty space in front of him and couldn't help but be stunned. The stone steps were too strange, and the magical ability of the white-robed old man was really unimaginable. He could actually send people into the chessboard to decide life and death? But for some reason, Lin Xiu, who was also around the chessboard, wasn't involved.
From their words, Lin Xiu also understood that the black-robed Nine Nether must be the master of this Netherworld Palace. In order to achieve a goal, he wanted to bury all the living beings on the continent. And the white-robed old man, in order to prevent the people from being plunged into misery and suffering, used his magical ability to create a chess game of life and death, using the life and death of the two to decide the fate of the world.
But did this really happen just now? Lin Xiu didn't dare to believe it, the scene just now was really too unimaginable.
At this moment, the majestic voice that just appeared resounded in Lin Xiu's ears again, "Don't doubt it, this really happened, but that was a thousand years ago. What you see is just a projection left behind by time. "
"Then what was the final result? Who won? "Lin Xiu asked.
"Now that you're still alive, naturally, the white-robed old man won. Back then, the white-robed old man used all his strength and turned his entire cultivation into a chessboard, finally sealing Nine Nether in the chessboard, but the white-robed old man also passed away. It's a pity that Nine Nether was too strong, a hundred years ago, his spirit body used all its strength and still managed to escape. "The majestic voice sounded again.
"Isn't this the inheritance of the Netherworld Palace? Why do I feel that you're on the side of the white-robed old man? Who are you? "Lin Xiu felt that something was wrong.
"Back then, this was indeed a place of inheritance of the Netherworld Palace. In order to avoid the eyes of other sects, Nine Nether secretly came here in order to break through. But the white-robed old man still found him, and then the two of them played a game of life and death. Although the white-robed old man succeeded in sealing Nine Nether, demons have always been treacherous and cunning. He was worried that Nine Nether would have some way to escape, so he left behind a backup plan. "
"What backup plan?"
"Although this is the place of inheritance of the Netherworld Palace, this stage was secretly changed by the white-robed old man. Other than the normal means of the Netherworld Palace when you first stepped in, the sword rain and sea of fire after that were all left behind by the white-robed old man."
"Little guy, listen, Nine Nether should have returned to the Netherworld Palace now, and he must have been recovering his strength in these hundred years. I have a hunch that although he didn't have time to observe the changes here when he escaped, he will definitely come back to check when he recovers. That day is coming soon. "
