"Huh? You know about the Red Lotus Hellfire?"
The monster exclaimed. It didn't expect this kid to recognize the flame unique to Hell at first glance. It was beyond its expectations.
Ding Ning smiled bitterly and extended a finger. There was a bright red flame burning on his fingertip. If it wasn't the Red Lotus Hellfire, what else could it be?
The monster was shocked. It looked at Ding Ning strangely and asked, "Don't tell me you have the bloodline of our Incubus Clan?"
"Incubus?"
Ding Ning opened his mouth wide in shock. His eyes widened in disbelief.
Incubus had appeared in many literary works. He always thought they were fictional creatures. He didn't expect such a magical creature to exist. He even met one.
"No, no. I'm a human. I don't have the bloodline of Incubus."
Ding Ning shook his head. What a joke. If he didn't want to be a human, would he want to be a monster?
"Without the bloodline of Incubus, how can you have the Red Lotus Hellfire that only the Incubus Clan can control?"
The Incubus didn't believe him at all and said with certainty.
"Only the Incubus Clan can control the Red Lotus Hellfire?"
Ding Ning really didn't understand this. He immediately realized something was wrong. The Red Lotus Hellfire came from An Xi. An Xi was the daughter of Hades. She couldn't have the bloodline of Incubus.
However, he subconsciously didn't want the Incubus to know this. He immediately changed the topic and shook his head. "Impossible. I know a bunch of people have the Red Lotus Hellfire, but they don't call it the Red Lotus Hellfire. They call it Hellfire."
"Hellfire? The bloodline of Cerberus? Tsk, it's just a Beast Fire. How can it be compared to the Red Lotus Hellfire? "
The Incubus said with disdain. It was obvious that he looked down on Cerberus.
Ding Ning was speechless. Although he didn't know what a Beast Fire was, he knew that the Hellfire wasn't on the same level as the Red Lotus Hellfire. The difference was huge.
"Maybe you don't even know that you have the bloodline of Incubus. Without the bloodline of Incubus, you can't control the Red Lotus Hellfire. Unless …"
The Incubus suddenly shut his mouth. He seemed to think that it was impossible. He shook his head in self-mockery.
"Unless what?"
Ding Ning's heart moved and he persistently asked.
Since the King of Nightmares was so certain, it meant that those without the Blood of Nightmares could not control the Red Lotus Hellfire. However, An Xi clearly did not have the Blood of Nightmares, but he had the Red Lotus Hellfire in his body. This made him very curious.
The King of Nightmares probably believed that Ye Futian had the bloodline of his clansmen, so his gaze became much gentler. He shook his head and said with a smile, "Legend has it that only those with a Reincarnated Body who have comprehended the Way of Life and Death after reincarnation and refined the Source of the Nine Underworlds can control the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus. However, I don't sense any signs of reincarnation from you. This means that you can't be a Reincarnated Body. Moreover …"
"Besides what?"
Ding Ning asked, but his heart was in turmoil.
Could it be that An Xi was a reincarnated body who had refined the Origin of the Nine Underworlds after going through reincarnation? Otherwise, how could she be in possession of the Hellfire of the Red Lotus?
Moreover, An Xi had indeed comprehended the Way of Death. It was just that he did not know if it was the same as the Way of Life and Death that the King of Nightmares had mentioned.
Most importantly, An Xi's age seemed to explain the problem. According to her, she was not even 50 years old this year. However, when Hades and Zeus started the divine war, his wife was already pregnant. It had been at least a few thousand years since then.
Even if An Xi's mother was a god, a god could not possibly be pregnant for a few thousand years, right?
If An Xi had gone through reincarnation and forgotten about her past life, then the few thousand years that she had lost could be explained.
"Moreover, you don't have the aura of the Nine Underworlds on you. Even the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus seems to have changed. It seems to be mixed with the aura of other flames of the same level. It is no longer the pure Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus."
It had to be said that the King of Nightmares was very familiar with the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus. With just a sniff, he acutely sensed that the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus was mixed with the aura of other flames.
"Senior, what exactly is the Nine Underworlds? Is it hell? "
Ding Ning smiled embarrassedly and hurriedly changed the topic. After all, both the Fire of the Underworlds and the Heavenly Fire of Nirvana were extremely high-grade Heavenly Fires. He did not want to tell the King of Nightmares. It would be troublesome if he coveted them.
"Have you heard of Jiutian Shidi and Four Fields and Eight Wastelands?"
The King of Nightmares did not answer directly.
"Yes, I have."
Ding Ning answered honestly. However, he was secretly puzzled. Did the Nine Underworlds have something to do with Jiutian Shidi and Four Fields and Eight Wastelands?
"Jiutian is also known as the Upper Nine Heavens. It is also the largest and most stable world in this chaotic universe. As for the Ten Lands, they were originally known as the Ten Underworlds. The Nine Underworlds is the first underworld among the Ten Underworlds. It is the largest and most stable world among the Ten Lands that can be on par with the Nine Heavens. It is also known as the Land of the Yellow Springs."
The King of Nightmares had been trapped for countless years and treated Ding Ning as one of its own people. Therefore, it told Ding Ning everything it knew and patiently answered his questions.
As the King of Nightmares spoke tirelessly, Ding Ning seemed to see a scene of the truth that had been lost in history. He had a deeper understanding of this world.
According to the inherited memories of the King of Nightmares, this chaotic universe where the Three Realms were located was called Heaven Wasteland Domain. There were thousands of small worlds and countless planes.
However, just like building a house, if the Heavenly Dao wanted to operate according to the normal order, it needed a framework that could bear the weight. And Jiutian Shidi and Four Fields and Eight Wastelands bore the role of the main framework.
In other words, Jiutian Shidi and Four Fields and Eight Wastelands were the main plane of Heaven Wasteland Domain. As long as there was no problem with the main plane, even if all the small worlds and subsidiary planes collapsed, it would not affect the operation of the Heavenly Dao.
In fact, according to the King of Nightmares, Heaven Wasteland Domain operated according to the structure of the Three Realms. It was divided into three main planes: Heaven, Earth, and Human.
Jiutian represented Heaven. It was high above and enjoyed the worship of the people. At the same time, it shouldered the heavy responsibility of protecting the entire Heaven Wasteland Domain. Jiutian represented the Ten Underworld. It represented the Underworld. It was in charge of sin and punishment, and constructed the Six Paths of Reincarnation. It went without saying that Four Fields and Eight Wastelands represented humans and the Human Realm. Of course, to jump out of the small pond that was the Three Realms, the humans here did not just refer to the Human Race in a narrow sense, but all living beings.
Although Four Fields and Eight Wastelands was the weakest main plane in Heaven Wasteland Domain, it was the most important main plane. This was because no matter if it was Jiutian Shidi or Jiutian Shidi, they needed new blood from the Human Realm.
Cultivators relied on cultivation to become stronger and stronger. When they reached a certain level, they would undergo the test of the Heavenly Tribulation. Those who passed the test could ascend to the Nine Heavens and become immortals. They could enjoy the incense of thousands of families in the Human Realm.
When humans or living beings died, their souls would enter the Ten Underworld. They would be judged and punished according to their sins in life. According to the level of their sins, they would be thrown into the Six Paths of Reincarnation for reincarnation. They could be reincarnated into the Human Realm as a human, or reincarnated into the Human Realm as a beast …
Among them, there were some who had accumulated great merit in life. They could stay in the Ten Underworld and become members of the Undead Race of the Underworld.
Of course, this Undead referred to an extremely long lifespan, almost as long as the Heaven and Earth. However, they would still die under irresistible external forces.
It could be said that the structure of the Three Realms was copied from the Heaven Wasteland Domain's Heavenly Dao cycle model.
However, the ambition and desire of humans eventually led to a great chaotic battle between super experts at the end of the Immemorial Era. The power that destroyed the heaven and earth caused the Four Fields and Eight Wastelands to directly shatter into countless continental fragments.
The damage to the pillars of the Heavenly Dao also caused the framework of the Six Paths of Reincarnation to collapse. The Underworld was no longer the Underworld, the Nine Heavens was no longer the Nine Heavens, and the Human Realm also changed.
The Heavenly Dao was an existence without intelligence, but it had the instinct to evolve itself. After realizing that the continental plate model was too weak, it began to enter a state of hibernation, transforming the continents into a circular shape.
But when the control of the Heavenly Dao was at its weakest, conspiracies came one after another. In the Immemorial Era, a terrifying expert from another domain forcefully crossed the boundaries. With one strike, the already broken and incomplete Ancient Wasteland was smashed into pieces. This caused the Heavenly Dao to fall into an extremely weak state, and had no choice but to enter a state of hibernation.
Although it was unknown why the expert from another domain wanted to destroy the Ancient Wasteland Domain, the Heavenly Dao had a consciousness of self-preservation. It instinctively sent down various natural disasters, preventing the expert from taking the opportunity to invade the Heaven Wasteland Domain.
But because of this, the Ancient Wasteland Domain fell into an apocalypse. Countless living beings died under the natural disasters, and only a small number of experts were able to rely on their own powerful strength to survive.
After the terrifying and dark natural disasters, it might have been ten thousand years, or perhaps a million years, until the broken Ancient Wasteland Continent gradually evolved into a circular shape. Only then did the natural disasters gradually begin to subside.
Humans finally walked out of the threat of the natural disasters, and began to continuously multiply, gradually entering the Immemorial Era.
But after experiencing the Immemorial Era, the Six Paths of Reincarnation had already collapsed, Yin and Yang were mixed up, and order was in chaos. The Ten Territories of the Underworld had also changed, and was no longer a pure Yin Realm.
And the Nightmare Clan was originally the clan responsible for punishing sins in the Nine Nether. But in that disaster, the Nine Nether experienced an unprecedented riot, and countless unknown races invaded.
As the guardians of order, the Nightmare Clan naturally bore the brunt of the invaders' attacks. Countless members of the Nightmare Clan were killed or even enslaved.
The Nightmare Clan in front of them was called Meng Nian. At that time, he and his fiancee Ying 'er were the most outstanding of the younger generation of the clan, and also the hope of the clan's future.
In the end, the people of the Nightmare Clan fought their way out of the Nine Nether and forcefully sent the couple out of the Nine Nether. They sternly rejected their hysterical request to perish together with the enemy. They resolutely closed the door to the Nine Nether and escaped into the void, disappearing without a trace.
After all, Meng Nian and his fiancee Ying 'er were creatures of the Yin Realm, and should not have been able to survive in the Human Realm. But fortunately, the order of the Heavenly Dao had collapsed, and Yin and Yang were in chaos. Although they had become extremely weak, they had barely managed to survive.
The young couple carried a blood feud, and hid in a place of extreme Yin and extreme cold. It took them over a hundred years to gradually adapt to the environment of the Human Realm, and their strength had also recovered to its peak.
But so what if they had recovered their strength? In the Human Realm, they could not improve their strength at all. Moreover, as long as humans saw them, they would immediately want to capture them and obtain their Dream Cores.
Therefore, the two of them lived a life of being hunted down or killed. This kind of life annoyed them to no end, and they had no choice but to split up to search for other Underworlds, and then slowly think of a way to return to the Nine Nether.
However, just as Ying 'er finally found an entrance to the Underworld, and was about to send a message to Meng Nian, it met the person it hated the most in its life. That person was Wan Tusheng.
Meng Nian was originally extremely wary of humans, but Wan Tusheng was different from ordinary humans. Not only did he not show any hostility, he did not even shout at it to kill it. Instead, he sincerely warned it that the order of the Heavenly Dao was recovering, and if it continued to live in the Human Realm, it would be killed by the Heavenly Dao sooner or later.
Meng Nian naturally would not trust a human so easily. It was about to ignore him and leave, but Wan Tusheng's words made it stop in its tracks. He said that he knew where the Nine Nether was.
