"This is … Heaven's will, Heaven's will!" Zhen Yuanzi looked at the tortoiseshell in his hand, and his eyes lit up.
"Great Immortal, the Tortoise Shell cracked by itself. Did the divination change?" Yang Jian's eyes flashed as he asked.
Among the others, he knew the art of divination the best. There were many experts who were proficient in divination during the War of the Gods. Although he didn't know how to do it himself, he had witnessed it many times.
"That's right. This hexagram was originally a dead end, but now there is a crack. There is a chance to turn the situation around. Maybe it can help us get out of here," Zhenyuanzi said excitedly.
"Oh, what opportunity?" Shen Luo asked.
"I can't see what it is exactly, but the divination shows that the opportunity is near the Styx River," Zhen Yuanzi said.
"In that case, let's go there quickly." Yang Jian turned into a white light and shot toward the Styx River. He seemed to trust Zhen Yuanzi's divination very much.
The others followed closely behind. With their speed, they arrived near the Styx River in less than an hour.
It was the same as before. The Styx River was turbulent, but it was quiet nearby. There were no monsters or ghosts.
"Well, when we came here before, there were ghosts everywhere. Now the situation is strange," Bull Demon said softly.
"Jiuming summoned all the ghosts back to Fengdu City. I'm afraid that it is now an impregnable fortress. Even if we attack together, I'm afraid that there is not much hope. Let's look for the opportunity that Zhen Yuan Daisen mentioned!" Yang Jian said.
The others also nodded.
Shen Luo didn't say anything when he saw this. He used his Fiery Golden Eyes and looked around. He also spread out his Divine Sense, but he didn't find anything.
The others also used their Divine Sense, but they didn't find anything.
Zhen Yuanzi took out a green Yujue and handed it to Shen Luo. "Let's split into two groups. One group will search upstream, and the other group will search downstream. We will use this to communicate."
"Okay, then Brother Niu, Cai Zhu, and I will go upstream. Great Immortal, you and the others will go downstream."
Shen Luo took the Yujue and flew upstream with Bull Demon and Nie Caizhu. Zhen Yuanzi, Yang Jian, and Nezha went downstream.
"Cousin, do you think that Zhen Yuan Daisen's divination is trustworthy?" Nie Caizhu asked after they flew for a while.
"The Divine Sense of Divination has existed since ancient times. It shouldn't be false," Shen Luo said.
"That's right. The Great Sage of the Demon Clan, Kong Xuan, is good at divination. It's a pity that he converted to Buddhism in the Western Heaven during the War of the Investiture of the Gods. Now, divination and similar Dao techniques have declined. However, this Divine Sense is undeniable," Bull Demon said.
"I hope so." Nie Caizhu nodded thoughtfully.
"Shen Brothers, you said that you came from a world a thousand years ago? Is this true? "Bull Demon looked away from Nie Caizhu and looked at Shen Luo.
"Of course it's true. Brother Niu, what do you mean?" In order to prove himself, Shen Luo had no choice but to admit his origin. However, when this secret was mentioned, he always felt a little awkward. Thus, he narrowed his eyes and said.
"If the Shen Brothers really came from a thousand years ago, I have a presumptuous request. I hope that Shen Daoyou can agree to it," Bull Demon said.
"Brother Niu, please say it. However, I have to say this first. My current strength a thousand years ago was very weak. It's far from what it is now. I'm afraid I can't do something that's too difficult." Shen Luo didn't take on everything.
"This matter isn't too difficult. It concerns my son, Red Boy. This time, we're going to stop Chi You from reviving. No matter what the result is, Shen Brothers, after you return to reality, please help me take care of my son. Don't let him fall into the Devil's Path. In your era, he shouldn't have come into contact with Demons yet," Bull Demon said after hesitating for a while.
"Brother Niu really thinks too highly of me. I've already said that my strength a thousand years ago was very weak. However, Red Boy's strength was very strong. He had already reached the Real Immortal Stage and was proficient in the True Samadhi Fire. How could I control him?" Shen Luo shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Shen Brothers, you don't have to be so modest. I can feel that your strength in reality is definitely not weak. Red Boy's cultivation isn't very strong. The main thing is the True Samadhi Fire. I have a secret treasure in the Emerald Cloud Mountain. Only I know the location and the method to open the door of the treasure house. There's a secret treasure, the Divine Water Splitting Pearl, which can restrain all kinds of supernatural powers of fire. The True Samadhi Fire is no exception. Today, I'll pass this to you. When you go back, you can find a chance to go and take the Divine Water Splitting Pearl. You can also take some of the other things as a reward for what I've entrusted you." Bull Demon took out a jade bamboo slip and handed it over, as if he had already prepared it.
"Since Brother Niu has said so, I'll be too unreasonable if I refuse. I'll try to stop Red Boy from falling into the Devil's Path, but I can't guarantee that I'll succeed," Shen Luo thought for a while and took the jade bamboo slip.
"Of course," Bull Demon didn't get angry because of Shen Luo's ambiguous answer. Instead, he was very happy.
Shen Luo's Divine Sense sank into the jade bamboo slip. There was a location at the very front and the secret method to open the door of the treasure house. It didn't look fake.
However, he didn't care too much about it. When he returned to reality, he would go and take a look if he had the chance.
The three of them continued to fly forward, looking for clues.
After flying for a while, Shen Luo's expression suddenly changed slightly.
His Divine Sense sensed that a gray-robed figure appeared on the river in front of him, sitting cross-legged on the river. The surrounding Yin Qi rolled over and merged into the figure's body. He was absorbing the Yin Qi here to cultivate.
The gray-robed figure's cultivation wasn't very high. It was only at the early stage of the True Immortal Realm.
"Shen Daoyou, what's wrong?" Bull Demon noticed Shen Luo's strange behavior and asked.
"Nothing, there's a ghost in front of us," Shen Luo said.
His Divine Sense expanded greatly, covering a wider area than Bull Demon and the others.
Bull Demon's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise. He flew forward for a while and soon detected the existence of the ghost. Nie Caizhu was the same.
"Hmph! There are so many lucrative jobs in the Underworld, and they actually arranged for me to be in such a remote place. They really don't care about my feelings at all, "the gray-robed figure complained angrily as he absorbed the Yin Qi.
"It seems that it's just an ordinary ghost servant. However, this person's appearance is strange. We should capture him and ask him," Bull Demon said.
The three of them continued to fly forward. After a few breaths, they appeared above the gray-robed man.
The man heard the movement and turned his head to see Shen Luo and the others. His expression changed greatly, and he immediately wanted to escape into the Underworld River.
However, the three of them would not let him escape. Nie Caizhu waved her willow branch, and a few rays of green light shot out, firmly imprisoning the man, making him unable to move.
"Seniors, please spare my life. I'm just an ordinary ghost in the Underworld. Those Demons have taken over the Underworld. I had no choice but to submit to them in order to survive." Although the gray-robed man's body could not move, his mouth could still speak, begging endlessly.
"What's your name? Why are you still here? "The Bull Demon King asked." All the demons and devils have already retreated.
"My name is Ucun, I'm the River God of this Underworld River," the gray-robed man hurriedly said.
"Immortal Elder, quickly control this person's mind. With him, we might really be able to leave the Underworld and return to the human world!" Tsing Lu's voice suddenly sounded in Shen Luo's mind.
Tsing Lu's cultivation was low, and he had been kept in the Heavenly Book's space all this time. However, he was familiar with the Underworld. Shen Luo left an opening for him, allowing him to spread his divine sense outside.
Hearing Tsing Lu's words that came out of nowhere, Shen Luo thought for a while and pointed his finger.
A ray of golden light shot out of his hand, and in a flash, it entered the gray-robed man's body.
His eyes immediately became dull, and his body became motionless, as if he had turned into a stone statue.
