Floating in the Black Mist, the Dragon Boat sailed in the darkness with murmuring water.
Xian Yun sat at the bow of the boat, brewing tea. The Dragon Girl looked tranquil, and her pleated dress made her look even more elegant.
Ji Feichen sat opposite her, tilting his head to look at the beautiful Dragon Girl. The two horns on her forehead were as shiny as jade, and the auspicious clouds on top of her head were like pearls and jade flowers, which made Xian Yun look more sacred in the darkness. He didn't expect that the one who would accompany him on this trip was Xian Yun after so many twists and turns.
Under the dense black mist, only the pale golden Celestial Light emitted by the Dragon Boat illuminated the water within a hundred feet.
"How do you feel?"
"Your Long Yuan's technology is higher than that of ordinary Immortal sects. This body is quite suitable." Xian Yun's Origin was hidden in the space inside the Deep Sea Dragon Boat. This body that appeared in front of people was a temporary body created by Long Yuan's technology, and was currently only at the Human Immortal level.
"It's Shaolan's technology that's good." Jin Shaolan was proficient in creation, and with the support of Ji Feichen, he was far better than many Immortal sects at creating a body.
After a pause, looking at Xian Yun's body, Ji Feichen showed some regret. "But Shaolan doesn't know much about the Dragon Body, so he can't create a real dragon body for you. He can only use this half-dragon body mixed with dragon blood to let you exert 10% of the power of a Celestial Being."
"10% is not bad." Xian Yun smiled sweetly. "The Underworld is dangerous, but for us Celestials, 10% of our power is enough to protect ourselves." Suddenly, a shrill laughter came from the Black Mist, and a fierce ghost with red eyes rushed toward the Deep Sea Dragon Boat.
Xian Yun's expression didn't change. She raised her cup and gently poured the bamboo leaf tea, and the emerald green light instantly extinguished the fierce ghost. A spiritual light floated in the mist and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Ji Feichen raised his eyebrows slightly, not surprised by this situation.
Since the two entered the Deep Underworld, they had encountered these fierce ghosts wandering in the Underworld from time to time. These fierce ghosts had no intelligence, only a fierce and vicious aura, not inferior to ordinary Ground Fairies. For them, the flickering light of the Deep Sea Dragon Boat was undoubtedly the most obvious landmark. Every time the fierce ghosts detected the Yang World's light on the Deep Sea Dragon Boat, they would come over instinctively to tear the two apart.
However, Celestials transcended the two realms of yin and yang. Even if they only had ten percent of their strength, they would not fear the threat of the deep layer of the Underworld. Moreover, they also had Ji Feichen's Celestial Phantom Image. The two of them could be said to be bold and skilled, and they directly sailed through the deep layers of the Nether Realm, killing many ferocious ghosts along the way.
As the dragon boat traveled through the dark waters, Ji Feichen looked down at the black water. Sea. Deep sea Water Sea, Black Sea, and, and Sea Yun. and, Dragon Yun, Dragon Sea, Yun, Sea, and, "Sea," Ji Ji, said with., and in, Ji Ji Dragon. Sea.
Xian Xian Yi., "Possible. of Dragon water Dragon water Yang Nine Sea, Yun, I, Yun, Moon." Yun, "Xian Yun 'Yun,".
Standing on the bow, Xian Yun watched Ji Feichen put out various bottles and jars for testing and thought to himself, "This Long Yuan's style is really strange."
Most immortals would just take out a furnace to concoct pills and find someone to experiment on. However, Ji Feichen had prepared various transparent glass jars to separate various elements from the Serene Water and Weak Water, analyzing the properties of the two types of water. Xian Yun had never seen such a method in thousands of years. However, in the underground palace of Mount Luo, no one was surprised. It seemed to be the most common experimental method used by the people of Long Yuan.
After a long time, Ji Feichen compared the various substances decomposed by the Weak Water and the Serene Water and said, "That's right. The River Styx should have extended from the Deep Nether Realm. To be precise, Serene Water is the predecessor of the Nine Serenities River Styx. "
Ji Feichen's eyes resembled the pupils of a dragon. He looked into the serene water and recalled the birth of River Styx.
In ancient times, the Land was filled with filthy evil energy that could not be dispelled. It was not until the shallow layer of the Underworld was separated that the remaining evil energy became more condensed and combined with the origin of Acheron to form this kind of serene water. Later, the serene water accumulated more and more, resulting in the birth of River Styx and the development of the middle layer of the Underworld.
"Squeak squeak …" Another strange sound came from the darkness, and three evil ghosts covered in blood rushed to the Sea Dragon Boat.
Xian Yun wanted to kill them together, but Ji Feichen made a move at this moment, "Wait." He shook his sleeve, and a piece of Xuanming Light covered the fierce ghosts, and then turned into an ice block the size of an abbot in his palm.
Looking at the fierce ghosts in the ice, Ji Feichen showed a look of understanding, and then handed it to Xian Yun, "Look, this fierce ghost is injured. It seems that it was injured by someone?"
The Dragoness stretched out her white and slender fingers and gently touched the wound on the fierce ghost's back, and a few wisps of yellow ghost energy came out.
"The energy of Acheron? Could it be the Diabolical Celestial Beings hidden in the Land? "
Xian Yun had learned a lot about the Demon Gate during these days outside. In ancient times, although the Demon Gate had declined, it could still compete with the Xuanmen. But now, the Demon Gate was weak, and its orthodoxy was almost in danger of being destroyed. The Ten Thousand Demon Realm in the Land was shattered by the Three Masters of Xuanmen, and only a few Celestial Beings escaped into the depths of the Underworld to survive.
"It's possible." Ji Feichen's eyes were serious. They could not worry about the threat of these fierce ghosts, but the Celestial Beings were different. Being able to survive the pursuit of the Xuanmen and Immortals for countless years, the means of those Diabolical Celestial Beings could not be underestimated.
"They are the biggest threat when I travel to the Underworld." Ji Feichen took out a Xuanming Divine Thunder and gave it to Xian Yun, "Take this to protect yourself. If you encounter them, just freeze them to death."
The Xuanming Divine Thunder was an extension of the Xuanming Great Dao. It could determine life and death, kill immortals and gods, and could even protect itself in front of the Diabolical Celestial Beings.
In addition, Ji Feichen summoned the Desolate Dao Diagram and released the three Demon Souls inside. "Guard the dragon boat with Xian Yun, and be ready to activate the Three Talents Killing Array at any time."
Everyone was ready, slowly shuttling through the dark water.
About half a day later, the dark water under the boat gradually disappeared. Instead, bare black soil and black stones appeared, like a new continent.
Although the Sea Dragon Boat could fly in the air between this black soil, seeing a scene completely different from the dark water, Ji Feichen wanted to get off the boat.
He asked Xian Yun, "Shall we put away the dragon boat and go down to have a look?"
Looking at the lightless world, Xian Yun nodded. Silent, cold, mysterious, profound … but she had no rejection for this lightless and silent place. After being trapped in the Dragon Penitentiary for thousands of years, she had long been indifferent to all this.
"You don't have to worry about me. I've endured thousands of years of loneliness and coldness in the Catacombs, so this underworld environment is nothing."
The two got off the boat, and Xian Yun directly put away the Sea Dragon Boat, letting the three Demon Souls follow them on the ground.
Looking at this lifeless black land, Ji Feichen suddenly asked, "Which one of you has been to the Underworld before?"
"This …" The three Demon Souls showed a troubled look. Xian Yun explained, "The Underworld in ancient times is very different from the present. Even if you've been here before, it's hard to tell why you're here now. "
"Yes, yes." A Demon Soul said, "In ancient times, if the Underworld didn't come out, the Land was the garbage dump of the entire universe. All kinds of garbage were thrown into the Land. At that time, the Land could be said to be a place where all kinds of monsters wandered. Even in the era when reincarnation did not exist, it was common for souls to fall into the Land and be melted and refined. That's why it was called the dark side of the world. At that time, powerful existences were often born from the Land to replace the evil energy of the Land to counterattack the world of the living. In my early years, I took the risk to come here to refine demonic weapons. It was at that time that I was almost killed by the Evil God in the Underworld. " The Demon Soul showed a look of fear, "Those Evil Gods were all celestial beings, far more powerful than these evil ghosts and evil spirits."
"Yes, at that time, even the supreme big shot of our demonic path opened a domain in the Land!" The three of them were very afraid of the Demon Ancestor.
Xian Yun finally said, "That was before the separation of the three layers of the Underworld, and the present deep layer of the Underworld is the product of the separation. Old antiques like us don't know much about what happened here."
Ji Feichen was silent. The separation of the three layers of the Underworld was not the first time, but the evolution of the Land over and over again to form its current structure.
The first layer to separate was the first layer. The gods opened the Mountain and River God Domain, and all kinds of Celestial Light shone on the Underworld, temporarily alleviating the evil energy of the Land, thus peeling off a thick fog and forming a buffer zone above the Underworld. Then came the second layer, where the River Styx emerged from the Underworld and evolved into the middle layer of the Underworld where the present Underworld was located. And what remained was the deep layer of the Underworld where Ji Feichen and the others were currently located, sealed under the Underworld.
Listening to the four, Ji Feichen did not want to delve into it, so he said, "Then help me collect the soil and rocks here, I want to do some research."
Ji Feichen asked Xian Yun to guard him and ordered the three Demon Souls to collect soil and rocks nearby, while he set up a table and took out the Serene Water and Weak Water he obtained not long ago to compare.
Xian Yun watched from the side. Although she did not understand Ji Feichen's experimental method was improved from his previous life, she understood its essential significance.
Decomposing the elements such as Weak Water, and then experimenting to analyze the principles of each element's promotion and restraint of the five elements, and then comparing the five elements to find similarities.
When comparing the attributes of Serene Water, Black Soil, and Rock, the separated elements were almost exactly the same.
Xian Yun could not help but ask, "Are Serene Water and Black Soil the same substance?"
Ji Feichen tried to dissolve the Black Soil, and soon the Black Soil in a glass bottle dissolved into Serene Water, and then transformed into a mass of Nine Serene Weak Water.
"Well, Serene Water and Black Soil should be the same thing, equivalent to the relationship between water and ice." Ji Feichen seemed to have thought of something and sent someone to collect the thick fog scattered outside the Black Soil and Serene Water. The results of the inspection found that this thing was also of the same origin as Serene Water and Black Soil.
Ji Feichen suddenly realized that the "Serene Water" encountered in the deep layer of the Underworld was not actually a kind of water, but a manifestation of energy.
"This kind of Underworld energy, as a solid, is Black Soil and Rock, as a liquid, it is Serene Water, and as a gas, it is the thick fog that shrouds the entire Underworld. The Dao is born into Qi, and this should be a kind of pure Dao Qi formed after several times of stripping from the Underworld. The quality of the Evil Qi of the Underworld is not inferior to that of the Xuanming Source, and even better. "
"My Lord, look." In the distance, a Devil Soul found something and pointed to the traces on the Black Soil. "There are traces of fighting here, and even signs of living beings."
Hearing this, everyone immediately began to search this area.
Finally, they saw a building that looked like a mound behind a mountain three hundred miles away.
The building was ten feet high, and there were many strange human-like creatures walking in front of it. These human-like creatures were of different appearances, including monsters with human bodies and tiger heads, werewolves with elephant noses and snake tails, winged people with phoenix wings and human bodies, and half-dragon bodies.
Xian Yun used the secret method of the Dragon Clan to sneak over and soon returned with a spear to Ji Feichen. "Look, the Acheron Qi attached to this spear seems to match the wounds of the ferocious ghosts we encountered not long ago."
"Those ferocious ghosts should have been killed by them." Looking at those strange appearances, and even the appearances of the same group of people were very different, Ji Feichen felt very strange. "How can these people live together peacefully? Also, with this kind of primitive hunting weapon, is there a civilization among them? "
He put away the three Devil Souls and sneaked into the "mound" with Xian Yun to inquire about the news.
Listening to the obscure language of those people, Ji Feichen did not understand, but Xian Yun showed a strange expression.
"Wait, their language — it's an ancient language. Are they people from the ancient times?"
People from the ancient times? They existed in the deep layer of the Underworld. Ji Feichen vaguely thought of something.
Ji Feichen continued to search around the mound with Xian Yun. Bypassing this mound, Ji Feichen found scattered villages and even a magnificent black city in the distance.
"That's — it's the Kingdom of Acheron!" Ji Feichen said solemnly, knowing that he had found a shocking event.
The evil energy in the deep layer of the Underworld formed rings of mountains, forming a ghost kingdom surrounded by three hundred thousand miles of mountains and rivers.
"The Kingdom of Acheron?" Xian Yun looked a little confused.
Ji Feichen said quickly, "Since there are races like Yaksha and Rakshasa in the Underworld, it's not impossible that there are corresponding races in the deep layer of the Underworld. No, strictly speaking, this is the real race of the Underworld. It's a special race formed by the accumulation of the remnant souls of those ancient creatures. "
This was not a ghost kingdom created by the Underworld or the Royal Court, but a naturally formed ghost kingdom in the Land. In other words, this was the prototype of the Underworld. The races here were of the same origin as the Rakshasa and Yaksha races.
Ji Feichen once opened up the Underworld in the Black Anemone Continent and saw with his own eyes the true souls left under the Thunder Lake reincarnate into the first batch of ghosts in the Underworld.
If the deep layer of the Underworld was regarded as a world without the Path of Reincarnation, then wouldn't it be possible for the souls accumulated here to create new lives in the Underworld?
"Xian Yun, if I remember correctly, this place is called the dark side of the world. As the original garbage dump of the universe, it's possible to fight back against the Yang World, right? "
In the ancient times, many existences in the Land attacked the Yang World. This was the instinct of the creatures in the Land, a special way to clean up the evil energy in the dark side.
"Extreme Yin reverses Yang. Although the three layers of the Underworld split and lost the possibility of giving birth to a supreme existence in the Land, the destiny of the Land to fight back against the Human World is still there." After Ji Feichen finished speaking, Xian Yun's expression changed. "You're saying that the Acheron Kingdom will become a great enemy of the Human World?"
Xian Yun was silent for a while before saying, "In the ancient times, there were rumors that a supreme existence should be born in the Land. However, in order to suppress this possibility, many people attacked the Land. Even Demon Ancestor's Realm of Ten Thousand Demons was set up in the Land. The Underworld that exists today is a defense mechanism in the ancient times. "
Originally, the Kingdom of Acheron was the true original form of the Underworld. The Yang World constantly swept trash into the Land, causing the number of dead souls to skyrocket and the evil energy to bite back at the Human World. Heaven and earth would naturally make a remedy instinctively. After thousands of years of evolution, a supreme existence was born to take charge of the Underworld. However, the powerful figures could see the future and predict the future function and potential of the Underworld. Therefore, the Nether Emperor established the Underworld in the Tian Continent of Shinra and seized the future opportunities of the Kingdom of Acheron. Other continents followed suit. The fate of the Kingdom of Acheron was scattered everywhere. The Underworld of Xuanzheng State was an example. These perfect Underworlds prevented the Kingdom of Acheron from taking shape. On the contrary, Xuanzheng Chau further divided the fate of the people of Acheron because of the River Styx of Serene Water. Even if a divine being was born in Acheron, he would not be able to compete with several Xuansheng Taoist Priests.
Although the Demon Ancestor, who established the Demon Gate, had now lost the favor of the Heavens, he had cultivated ancient gods and demons to alleviate the crisis in the Land. He also played a part in the separation of the three layers of the Underworld. His female disciple, Lady Purple, was the God of Toilet. She was a divine being born from the filth of the Land. Putting her into the Demon Gate to take charge of the filth of the Human World was, in a sense, delaying the birth of the existence in the Land.
However, the supreme existence could not be born. If it was just to deal with Xuanzheng Chau, the Kingdom of Acheron was still a huge threat.
