Lightning lakes were a natural landscape that every continent possessed. In the Azure Netherworld Realm, millions of lightning essence compressed and condensed into Connate Lightning Water, finally converging into a great lake, this was the lightning lake.
In ancient times, lightning was the most destructive natural phenomenon, it was worshipped by all living beings, and all kinds of ancient gods were born in the lightning lakes. But as time passed, after the appearance of Supreme Firmament Palace, these ancient gods disappeared, leaving only empty lightning lakes for immortals to refine.
When Supreme Firmament Palace was destroyed, the Black Anemone Continent's lightning lakes were drawn into the ground by Supreme Firmament Palace, landing in the eastern region, killing most of the Ground Fairies who besieged Supreme Firmament Palace, and also annihilating all the grotto-heavens sects in the eastern region of Black Anemone Continent. Until now, only a vast lightning region was left in the eastern region of Black Anemone Continent. The entire lightning lake occupied half of the eastern region. The lightning that attracted the nine heavens was a forbidden area that even the Ground Fairies did not dare to approach. But in order to refine the Demon Ancestor's dharmic will, Ji Feichen had to borrow the power of the nine heavens' yang lightning.
After a month of preparation, the Black Dragon flew from Black Lake Heaven City to the lightning lake. Along the way, he passed by many evil waters, he used the power of River Styx to wash away the evil waters, forming a three thousand li River Styx underground that connected the central and eastern regions.
Walking on the River Styx, Ji Feichen felt a power in the entire continent resonating with him.
"It's not just the Black Yellow Merit Qi, it's also some kind of mysterious Dao path contained in the River Styx. There seems to be some secret in the River Styx? "
Suddenly, Ji Feichen stopped in his tracks, his gaze landing on a Heaven City not far away. He purified the evil waters here, and the poisonous swamp under the Heaven City was also purified by him. Therefore, his primordial spirit power covered the Heaven City, and he sensed a cultivator in the Heaven City.
That was the Nether Spring Heaven City's City Lord's son, he had broken through the Human Immortal Realm today, condensed his Yin Spirit, and glimpsed the Dao. But like the ordinary immortals and demons in the Black Anemone Continent, when faced with the Dao of Heaven and Earth, a wisp of his soul wavered, and there was a risk of dying.
But because his Nether Spring Scripture was similar to the River Styx Dao, that wisp of soul floated into the underground River Styx, falling into Ji Feichen's domain.
"Eh?" Seeing this, Ji Feichen immediately had an idea. He pointed his finger, and the River Styx sent waves, sending the soul back. Following this, a Nether Spring Dao Fruit nurtured in the Nether River entered the cultivator's forehead.
"Dao, Of Dao," Dao, "Dao of Dao, River Dao Dao. Dao, and Dao, "Dao of Dao," Dao of Of Dao, "," Dao of of Dao of Dao, "Dao,
Dao, and of Dao, of Heaven and of Dao, in Dao, in Dao, in, in, Heaven, Dao of Dao. of Dao in., But this cultivator from the Black Yingzhou Province had accidentally stumbled upon the Black Yingzhou Province. His soul entered the River Styx, and he placed a wisp of his true spirit on Ji Feichen's River Styx. In other words, he automatically became Ji Feichen's vassal.
From then on, just like how cultivators in Xuanzheng Chau could absorb energy from Heaven and Earth, he could absorb energy from the River Styx to replenish his Dao Dao Fruit. And under the power of the River Styx, he could cultivate a minor sacred art related to the River Styx.
Ji Feichen waved his hand, and the Weak Water in front of him surged, illuminating a mark in the depths of the River Styx. The mark was like a pool of water, emitting a faint blue glow.
"Sun Cheng? Very good, very good. The more people like him, the stronger my River Styx will be. " After finding the correct path to the River Styx, Ji Feichen kept looking for people to entrust their Dao Fruits to join the River Styx on his way to the Lightning Lake.
However, there were two prerequisites to entrust a Dao Fruit to the River Styx. First, he could sense the existence of the River Styx, which meant that his elemental cultivation technique was similar to the River Styx. Secondly, he could only be absorbed by the River Styx when he was on the brink of death or about to break through, and entrust his soul to form a Dao Fruit.
At the moment, it was just an alternative ceremony to join an evil sect, and even the person involved did not think much of it.
Moreover, even though Ji Feichen spent half a year to come to the Lightning Lake, he only found eight people to become River Styx's dependents.
"These River Styx dependents are similar to the Demon Ancestor dependents, I can use my own power to interfere with their actions. Moreover, their growth will strengthen my River Styx Dao. "
This was like the relationship between the Mother and Child Gu Worms. The River Styx was the hotbed of everything. When they moved outside, Ji Feichen would cast River Styx and peek at their surroundings. Using the traces of their spells, he would infuse the aura of the River Styx Dao into other regions, slowly changing the evil water of a region, forming a brand new River Styx. This was an extremely long process, but when the River Styx connected the entire region, all living beings would be included in the River Styx's territory.
…
When he reached the Lightning Lake, it was already half a year later.
"I'm finally here!" The Black Dragon crawled out of the ground and looked at the endless scorched land in front of him.
Outside the Lightning Lake, the sun and moon were dim, only gloomy clouds covered the sky. Every day, the thunder and lightning in the sky would strike the earth, leaving behind a lifeless dead zone.
"What a huge thundercloud." The Marlboro Boy appeared and looked at the clouds in the sky, speechless. "Even the few Dharma treasures I have here can't control such a huge thundercloud, right?"
The dark thundercloud stretched for thousands of miles without dissipating, it had already been thousands of years since then. This Thaumaturgy alone wasn't something the Ground Fairies could do.
But in this dark environment, the boy wasn't used to it. He was the Million Treasures Celestial King Pool, able to absorb the sun, moon, and stars. But Nature Lightning didn't benefit him at all, instead, it reminded him of the Tribulation of Spirit Treasures.
Ji Feichen took a look. Suddenly, the Black Dragon flew into the clouds and soared into the sky amidst the dense lightning. The Marlboro Boy followed him into the clouds, only to be struck by the lightning until he was trembling.
"Master, why did you come here all of a sudden? — — -so numb! " The clouds were filled with all kinds of lightning, even though it didn't cause too much damage to the Demon Dragon, the feeling of being paralyzed by the lightning wasn't pleasant.
Ji Feichen suppressed his discomfort. His dragon body shuttled through the clouds and looked up.
"Look, what's that?"
In the core of the clouds, there were layers of lightning flashing, as bright as day. There were nine levels in the sky, each level had an infinite Divine Avatar evolving the Lightning Dao.
"That's … …" the Marlboro Boy muttered, "Nine Heavens?"
"I've seen traces of a similar Dao." The Black Dragon's voice was low, "It was on Supreme Firmament Palace's Qin Wu."
"Supreme Firmament Palace's Divine Firmament Nine Transformations?" The boy looked at the nine lightning clouds, "Red Sky, Green Sky, Green Sky, Red Sky, Bright Sky, Jade Sky, Blue Sky, Purple Sky, and Divine Sky. It does match. "
The bottom layer shone with red light, the top layer of green gas, and the top layer of green light … … The nine lightning clouds formed the Supreme Dao of Supreme Firmament Palace.
Hei Chi couldn't help but say, "This should be the Nine Heavens Sacred Realm created by the last Palace Master of Supreme Firmament Palace. He used the power of the Nine Heavens Lightning to draw the lightning from the sky into the ground, wiping out all the demonic immortal sects in the east. "
This was Supreme Firmament Palace's ultimate killer move. Not just the Black Anemone Continent, but also the Xuanzheng Chau. If someone wanted to destroy Supreme Firmament Palace, they could draw the lightning from the sky to kill them. Not to mention a sect, even the entire Central Plains would not be able to stop them.
"Nine Heavens, Nine Heavens, Nine Heavens Pagoda … …" Ji Feichen thought of the Nine Heavens Black Gold Dragon God Pagoda in his hand, "The number of Heavenly Dao is based on nine. Many techniques are related to nine. I can use Supreme Firmament Palace's Nine Heavens Lightning as a reference. "
The Black Dragon sped up and flew deeper into the sky.
Gradually, the scorched earth on the ground turned into a patch of black soil, and bits of green began to appear.
"When the thunder essence strikes the ground, it will form all kinds of treasures." Ji Feichen saw many charred corpses and artifact fragments on the ground. Clearly, someone came here to look for treasures and was killed by the lightning.
"This should be the central region of the lightning lake." The power of the lightning in the clouds was already strong enough to injure Human Immortals. Ji Feichen flew for a while and landed on the ground. He took out his artifact to defend against the lightning.
But when he walked here and saw the corpses of the immortals and demons, he felt something was wrong.
"There seems to be something under the ground?"
Black Pool stared at the ground and realized something, "The lightning is of the purest Yang attribute. After striking the ground continuously, there will not be any evil spirits in the ground. But if it goes deeper … … "
Ji Feichen hesitated but his curiosity won out. He entered the ground with his Yuan Shen. His Yuan Shen was comparable to the Ground Fairies and was not afraid of the lightning in the sky. Three thousand feet into the ground, he finally felt a trace of turbid air.
The world was clear and turbid, Yin and Yang were in balance. Even in a place with purest Yang attribute like the lightning lake, there was pure Innate Baleful Qi.
However, this turbid baleful aura made Ji Feichen fearful. In front of him, there was a stream of viscous Black Water flowing slowly. The source should be deeper in the Thunder Lake and it flowed towards the west.
Some lucky souls survived the lightning attack and dived deep into the ground to protect themselves. These souls were turned into Yin spirits by the Black Water and they wandered on the water.
"Dark Water … River Styx … No, Underworld Soil Embryonic Form?"
Ji Feichen's Yuan Shen stood on the Black Water. The nearby Yin spirits seemed to feel something and they all pounced over, wanting to devour Ji Feichen's Yuan Shen.
Ji Feichen thought and a layer of icy lightning appeared on his body. The Yin spirits felt the lightning and they immediately dispersed. They did not dare to come closer.
"As expected, the fear of lightning has been engraved in the soul."
With Heaven Heart Connection and the River Styx that he created, Ji Feichen quickly understood the cause and effect.
Indeed, the Black Anemone Continent did not have a Heaven and Earth Chessboard like Xuanzheng Chau. There was also no so-called Underworld Cycle of Life and Death. However, all of these did not exist naturally. They were formed step by step by the Great Dao.
The Black Anemone Continent's foundation was not as strong as Xuanzheng Chau. Therefore, there was another way for the Great Dao to evolve and operate naturally.
Thousands of years ago, the Supreme Cloud Palace was destroyed. The Nine Heavens Thunder struck the ground and created a dead zone in the human world. The entire East turned into nothingness. The sky full of resentment gathered in one place but was suppressed by the lightning. It could not soar into the clouds and could only be pressed deep into the ground. After thousands of years of continuous lightning strikes, the deep ground turned into a source River Styx and refined many souls. They became the Yin spirits in the River Styx.
"No wonder I can obtain so many merits by using the River Styx. It is compatible with the natural operation of the entire continent and the Great Dao of this world."
The River Styx flowed slowly under the Thunder Lake. After another 3,000 years, it could open up the underground waterways of the entire continent and form a pure River Styx world. This was the embryonic form of the Netherworld.
After the Yin spirits in the River Styx were born in the Underworld, they were the natives of the Netherworld. Similar to the Rakshasa Clan in the Underworld of Xuanzheng Chau, they were the native Ghost Clan that was born in the Underworld.
"Therefore, the ancestors of the native Ghost Clan were also living beings in the human world. However, after the souls were established in the Underworld, they formed a pure Ghost Clan ecosystem. Also — "Ji Feichen looked at the lightning around him." It makes sense that ghosts fear the Heavenly Thunder. "
However, there was a new problem. If the Black Anemone Continent's River Styx was formed through lightning strikes. Then how did the Xuanzheng Chau's Underworld come about?
"It is said that Xuanzheng Chau's Underworld was also born from the River Styx. First, there was a River Styx that opened up the land. Then, there was the entire Underworld. Then, did it appear the same way? Is it related to the Supreme Firmament Palace and the lightning? Speaking of which, when was the Xuanzheng Chau's Underworld created? "
Suddenly, Ji Feichen felt his memory blur. It was as if he could not remember this at all. He could only remember that "when the world was created, the River Styx was born, the Netherworld appeared, and the Underworld was established." However, no one could tell when the Underworld was created.
Since he could not figure it out, he stopped thinking about it. Ji Feichen looked down at the River Styx and sighed. "Three thousand years later, when the Underworld is created and the Yin and Yang system is established, these Yin spirits will become the first Ghost Kings. The Dao Fruits of the cultivators of the Yang World will be deposited here, which will make the River Styx even more powerful. "
The River Styx was where the Dao Fruits of the Black Anemone Continent were deposited.
"Master, come back quickly! The power of the lightning has increased! "Marlboro Boy transmitted to Ji Feichen, telling Ji Feichen to quickly return to his body. Visible to the naked eye, the lightning fell from the sky like raindrops. Every raindrop was a drop of Natural Lightning Water.
Ji Feichen's eyelids twitched, he quickly looked for a safe place to hide from the rain.
The lightning lake was divided into three layers.
The outermost layer was the Scorched Earth Death Zone that Ji Feichen first went through. As long as they did not foolishly run into the clouds to seek death, normal Human Immortals could safely walk around the outer layer.
The second layer started to show signs of life, nurturing all sorts of lightning-type secret treasures, even Lightning Strike Wood and other mystical treasures that could be used by immortals to refine artifacts. It was also here that the Human Immortals suffered heavy casualties.
As for the core area further in, it was a pure lightning lake. The Lightning of the Nine Heavens condensed into Natural Lightning Water, even Ground Fairies would die if they fell into it. This was the true forbidden area.
The rain that fell from the sky was related to the core lightning lake, it was the special weather of this lightning lake.
Ji Feichen took out the Ground Fairies True Artifact to split open the dark clouds in the sky, he ran to a tree not far away to hide from the rain.
"Since the Lightning-Struck Wood can survive the thunderstorm, it should be able to avoid the attack of the Innate Lightning Water."
But soon, Ji Feichen saw immortal lights running in the same direction in the distance before the rain got heavier.
"There are quite a number of Immortals and Fiends here."
"That's right, Ji Feichen!" Hei Chi suddenly thought of something. "I've heard of him before. There's a Ground Fairies in the Thunder Loch Forbidden Land collecting the fragments of various sects' grotto-heavens to build a special arcane town to avoid the attacks of the Nine Heavens Thunder. That should be the direction they're heading to. "
While the Forbidden Land instilled fear in people's hearts, it also made more people want to challenge it. In the Black Anemone Continent, there was a Ground Fairies who didn't believe in this and insisted on breaking into the Thunder Lake to shatter this legend of death. Although he still couldn't truly enter the core of the Lightning Lake, he had collected the Grotto-Heaven Fragments of the ancient sects in the second layer and built a small town.
There was a Two Realm Tree in each of the eight corners of the town. Using the power of the Two Realm Tree to create space-time, this small town was isolated from space-time. Even if the Heavenly Lightning Tribulation was unceasing, it couldn't reach this small town.
This was the only foothold in the Thunder Loch Forbidden Land.
Ji Feichen's eyes lit up, he took out the dragon boat and chased after the immortals and demons, he soon found a primeval forest in the Thunder Loch Forbidden Land.
The forest was supported by eight Two Realm Trees, there were countless green Lightning-Struck Wood nearby, forming a unique scenery of the primeval forest. Amidst the swaying shadows of the trees, there was a quiet little town. Many immortals hid in the small town to avoid the thunderstorm.
