1776 Memory.
In the main hall, black snowflakes were still falling.
The bone curtain hung quietly, as if it was covering an endless abyss.
Behind the curtain, the bamboo city Lord sat on his throne. The light from his crown was soft and reflected in his black eyes, which were as cold as frost.
Yang absorption …
The city Lord’s face was calm and there was no change.
Absorbing the Yang Qi of the living to strengthen themselves was a common method used by low-level ghosts.
For existences born from the ancestor tree like them, they only needed to stay in the netherworld and they could continue to grow stronger!
Those who were born and died like mayflies were, in the end, just blood and food raised by the heavens and earth for the strong …
Of course, none of this was important at the moment!
The immortal judge,”Fei Xi,” was right. For a human who dared to break into the netherworld, turn back in the netherworld, and even come to provoke her directly, death or torture of the body and soul were of no use at all!
This kind of living person had a heart as strong as iron and was indomitable. Before he came here, he had long been prepared to die!
Only by destroying his will and completely trampling on the ‘Dao’ in his heart could he truly make the human suffer a fate worse than death!
As for absorbing the Yang Qi of that human …
The human that was trapped in the [ lifeless realm ] was the [ ten directional mysterious primordial tribulation ], and his Yin Yang avatar had a very profound and mysterious power that even he felt scared of!
With the weakness of his race, this human had a great opportunity and fortune that even the immortals would be surprised by!
To use this human’s power to deal with his own race …
This could indeed destroy the ‘Dao’ that he had always insisted on!
Moreover, he had a very strong premonition.
The unknown power of the human incarnation could help him improve!
Thinking up to this point, bamboo city’s city Lord nodded slightly.
As the Pearl and Jade swayed, his dark eyes were as deep as the dark night, almost blending into the surrounding darkness.
Although he had not absorbed the Yang Qi of any living person so far, the means of such a low-level ghost were as easy as flipping his hand for him.
He had at least a hundred ways to easily take away the other party’s yang Qi!
But …
As his thoughts flashed like lightning, the city Lord suddenly said in an indifferent voice, ” “This method can indeed destroy one’s will.”
“But …”
&Quot; how can I make this human see hope and despair in the future? ”
The punishment executor, specter immortal, Fei Xi, quickly said, ” &Quot; city Lord, I’ll insert a piece of memory and make him think that his wish has been fulfilled. That’s all! &Quot;
Hearing this, the people behind the bone curtain fell into silence.
A moment later, the city Lord’s voice rang out indifferently, ” “I’ll try it first.”
“If it’s effective, all the true immortals in the hall can take turns to torture him.”
Hearing the city Lord’s words, the eyes of the many female Immortals in the hall shone with excitement.
They were all true immortals of the netherworld race and were born powerful. They did not need to absorb the Yang Qi of the living to strengthen themselves like the low-level ghosts.
Therefore, ever since it was born, it had never absorbed any Yang Qi.
In the past, they had always been disdainful of such low-level means of improvement.
But now, as long as they could make the foolish human who dared to provoke the netherworld race suffer, it would be their greatest joy!
The many female Immortals responded,”yes!”
Behind the bone curtain, the bamboo city Lord’s expression was indifferent. He then looked at the human female cultivator he had sealed long ago.
In an instant, the human female cultivator’s figure faded and completely disappeared from her original spot. She had also been locked into the [ lifeless realm ].
There were also humans watching from the side. The city Lord didn’t hesitate any longer, and his translucent figure in luxurious clothes immediately disappeared from his throne.
Seeing that the mayor was going to carry out the punishment himself, she said, ” “From now on, line up one by one.”
“When we torture that human later, don’t suck him dry in one go.”
&Quot; we must keep this human alive. We must make him regret for all eternity for offending our race! &Quot;
The other female Immortals nodded, understood!
&Quot; I’ll control myself later. I’ll definitely make that ant suffer and regret it! &Quot;
“Hehehe … I can’t wait to see that human’s heartbroken face …”
&Quot; how dare you be rude to our clan. That human deserves this … &Quot;
※※※
[ lifeless domain ].
In the grey-white world, one could still see the Grand occasion of the past.
The huge city walls, palaces, gardens … Everything was in ruins. The remaining ruins showed the desolation of the end of prosperity.
The pond was dried up, the grass and trees were barren, and in the dead silence, the sky was pale. There seemed to be an invisible pressure that covered the entire world.
In a vast and deserted courtyard, PEI Ling and ‘mo minglan’ stood side by side and looked around.
As soon as he entered this place, he immediately created this immortal incarnation.
At this moment, the two of them walked forward slowly with their backs against each other. Their expressions were quite vigilant.
Step, step, step …
In the darkness that seemed to have been forgotten by the whole world, there was only the sound of their footsteps, which wandered back and forth coldly, splashing clouds of dust.
The mottled vines were like scattered mud, climbing up in every corner.
The boundless coldness and silence surged silently, almost swallowing all the living.
Suddenly, PEI Ling was dazed. He raised his head and saw that the surrounding scene had changed greatly. The bright light fell with a bang. Darkness, confusion, coldness, death … All disappeared as if it was just an illusion.
He had left the netherworld and was now standing in front of a towering tree!
This giant tree was not so much a wood-type as an unimaginably thick vine.
Nine majestic vines intertwined to form a giant rope that snaked into the sky. The top of the rope was so far away that it couldn’t be seen. There were only mountains of clouds and seas of fog that covered thousands of miles.
The vines had been growing for an unknown amount of time. The branches and leaves were luxuriant and dense, like the rolling mountains and rivers. Red, autumn, green, yellow … The four colors shone, like an endless scroll of painting.
A giant tree covered Four Seasons.
The layers of moss were as thick as a blanket, the folds of the tree bark were like the vines of a Valley, and countless Jade grass and flowers were dazzling within.
The rich spiritual vigor and the fragrance of thousands of flowers hit him in the face. In the cracks of the tree bark, there were countless waterfalls and silver chains.
The water vapor was misty, and it was as ethereal as a Fairyland. It supported the many rainbow bridges, and it was brilliant and dazzling.
At this moment, the surroundings were silent. A desolate wind rushed over from the distance, mighty and mighty, causing the grass and trees to fall and the giant trees to dance.
Among the thousands of spiritual plants, one could vaguely see a great path winding up along the vines and into the sky.
The ethereal immortal Palace loomed in the clouds, covered in auspicious light and clouds.
Looking at this strange yet magnificent scene, PEI Ling was momentarily stunned. Then, he quickly remembered that during the myriad immortal gathering, master immortal Li Luo had promised to take him to the creation wood to become an immortal and return to the original time …
The magnificent giant tree in front of him that he had never seen before was the creation wood!
That’s right, he had fallen into a desperate situation in the netherworld and struggled to hold on for three days. When the agreed time was up,”Li Luo” had directly moved him over.
However, why was he the only one?
Senior Mo Yi, senior Kong mo, and senior Hu Yi were still in a state of crisis …
Wait a minute!
He had the immortal Technique imparted by the will of the fallen immortal. As long as he became an immortal himself, he could directly summon the cultivators from the lower realm to his side …
That’s right!
He didn’t need to wait for anyone else. He just needed to become an immortal on his own!
At that time, not only senior Mo Yi, senior Kong Wu, and senior Hu Yi …
There was also Senior Sister li, Sihong Qingqian, Yan mingchen, Wenren lingse, Qiao ciguang, Sihong Miaoli, su Xirou, Meng Hongling, Huan yunzhen …
As well as senior Xing hen and the ancestors of su zhentian who were outside the chess game …
All of them could be brought to the higher realm!
As he thought of this, PEI Ling suddenly felt that his memory was a little blurry.
He could not remember any specific details of the three days in the netherworld.
But on the other hand, he felt that everything was extremely natural, and there was nothing wrong.
In a flash, PEI Ling realized that he had unknowingly ascended to the peak of the builder tree. He had stepped through the mountains and seas of clouds, and he had been reborn. He had stepped into a new level and become a true immortal!
In the next moment, the scene in front of him changed again.
The sea of clouds was vast, and the atmosphere was ever-changing. In the immortal paradise, there was an immortal Palace that stretched for eighty thousand miles. The pavilions were all dazzling, and thousands of Immortals were wearing colorful dresses, surrounded by pearls and Jade, and flutters shuttling back and forth.
Rare and precious beasts were either dancing in the clouds or crawling down the steps.
There was also a feast in front of them. Spiritual Jade was used as a basin, moon essence was used as a drink, and the Grand Hall was lit up by the true fire of the great sun. Precious dishes were all like water, and many immortal officials were wearing brocade robes and broad crowns. They held silk bamboos in their hands and played them by the side to liven up the atmosphere.
PEI Ling sat on the throne, his throne wide and his Dao partner li lieyue in his arms.
Li lieyue was still wearing a black gauze dress. He had bright eyes and white teeth. The rune between his eyebrows was bright and lustrous. As he looked around, he had a graceful bearing. The aura around him was ethereal and high. He had also become an immortal.
At the lower seats, there were dressed and beautiful figures. Senior Mo Di, senior Kong Yan, senior Hu Yi, Sihong Qingqian, Yan Mingqian, Wenren lingse, Qiao ciguang, Sihong Miaoli, Meng Hongling, Huan yunzhen … All of them were seated.
All the female cultivators had become Celestials, and apart from their beauty, they also had the grace of Celestials.
At this moment, all the female cultivators looked at PEI Ling with eyes full of respect and admiration.
PEI Ling was stunned again, but then he remembered that after he successfully ascended to the upper realm, he immediately used the immortal Technique taught by the fallen immortal to bring all the beauties back to the upper realm.
After that, he used the celestial technique, [ boundless secular world, fear me like the heavens ], to raise their cultivation realms.
Now, all of his women were Immortals!
PEI Ling tried to recall, but he could not remember when he had done these things.
However, when he scanned the entire immortal Palace with his spiritual force and even secretly checked all the beauties, he did not detect anything unusual at all …
He immediately felt relieved. Very good, he could finally live forever!
Thinking back to the hardships he had experienced in Luquan City, in a freak combination of factors, he had unexpectedly, with his Qi refining cultivation, and with Senior Sister li, who was born noble and had a promising future … All the things in the past seemed to have happened yesterday.
The moment he thought about it, the surrounding environment changed once more.
The majestic immortal Palace faded away and the tens of thousands of female Immortals disappeared.
The ethereal aura and the feeling of looking down on all living beings dissipated like clouds and smoke.
What appeared before PEI Ling’s eyes was a familiar abode.
The green bamboo outside the window was fresh and lovely, and the room was spotless.
On the cloud Bed, li lieyue’s long hair hung loose, like flowing water in the dark night, silently covering half of the bed.
The black dress was like a pile of dark clouds, showing her fair skin.
As she lay on her back, her long eyelashes drooped, like a butterfly’s wings resting, as if she could not move.
PEI Ling saw that one of his hands was grabbing li lieyue’s skirt.
He was once again in a daze, but he quickly remembered that he was reliving an old dream with Senior Sister li!
He had intentionally sealed his cultivation level to the third level of the Qi refining stage, and Senior Sister li had intentionally fallen into his trap …
At the thought of this, PEI Ling was no longer polite!
[ 279 characters have been omitted here ]
Gradually, PEI Ling felt that something was wrong. His aura seemed to have weakened a lot!
Something was wrong!
He must have missed something!
In a flash, PEI Ling wanted to get up, but at this moment, li lieyue’s figure changed. His eyes were deep and dark, as if hiding the endless night.
Her skin was still bright and beautiful, but strangely, it revealed a lifeless paleness.
Black smoke rose from the cloud Bed and filled the room in the blink of an eye.
The deathly aura was like an ocean that eroded this world.
Tens of thousands of green threads suddenly expanded and turned into pitch-black ghostly hands. They suddenly pressed down on PEI Ling’s body, causing him to be unable to get up!
This was not Senior Sister li!
PEI Ling immediately stretched out his hand, wanting to push away “Senior Sister li” in front of him. However, no matter how hard he tried, he could not move her in the slightest!
As the yin and cold invaded, PEI Ling’s aura became weaker and weaker.
Knowing that the situation was not right, PEI Ling did not have the time to think about it. “System, I want to cultivate. He seized [ boundless secular world, fear me like the heavens ] with one click!”
He had to immediately separate from this fake “Senior Sister li” in front of him!
If he used any other celestial spell, he would be interrupted!
Only when the technique of summoning the heavenly Tribulation was halfway through, as long as the Tribulation clouds appeared, even if the system’s control was interrupted, the Tribulation lightning could still continue to descend!
“Ding dong! The intelligent cultivation system is at your service! With one click of the key, it upgraded its intelligence! [ seizing cultivation begins now. A thoughtful reminder: ] During the cultivation period, the host will lose control of his body. Please do not panic …”
“Ding dong! Detected host has lost a large amount of Yang Qi …”
“Ding dong! The system will prioritize restoring your Yang Qi …”
The system beeped, and PEI lingfei’s mind cleared up as she suddenly remembered everything that had happened!
From the very beginning, he had been trapped by the Golden immortal of the netherworld race and had never left the netherworld!
Everything that had happened when he had arrived at the creation wood, climbed it, and become an immortal, and enjoyed immortal happiness with his group of beauties, was all an illusion that the other party had created for him!
No!
It wasn’t as simple as an illusion, it was a memory!
Moreover, under the guidance of those jumbled memories, he had also returned the immortal incarnation, mo minglan, back into his main body!
Just as he was thinking, PEI Ling was already under the system’s control. Not only did he not have the slightest intention of breaking free from ” Senior Sister li “, but he also struck out a mysterious spell.
It was the [ celestial invitation technique ]!
PEI Ling was suddenly shocked. Was the system going to invite the will of the fallen immortal again?
However, he had yet to separate his incarnation …
Before he could finish his thoughts, PEI Ling immediately saw that on the pale face of “Senior Sister li” in front of him, an extremely shocked expression appeared.
Even the tens of thousands of black ghostly hands paused!
Without waiting for PEI Ling to figure out what had happened, the system immediately began to control his body and activate the Maha derivation technique …
At the same time, bamboo city’s city Lord was standing not far away, calmly looking at the scene before him.
Another female human cultivator was standing beside him and was also forced to watch the torture of her fellow human.
The method the bamboo city Lord was using now was to forcibly absorb the Yang Qi of the other party through their own wishes!
The ” Senior Sister li ” that this human had seen was just his trick.
And he himself was not this “Senior Sister li”!
The rules and order of the entire space were his essence!
Therefore, no matter what this human and the “Senior Sister li” were doing, it was only a one-sided fantasy of that human.
It had nothing to do with him.
However, the Yang Qi that the human had leaked out was all used by him …
Just as he was thinking, the city Lord suddenly realized that his view had changed. He did not know when he had been lying on a Cloud Bed!
This … What was going on?
Bamboo city’s city Lord didn’t know what was happening, but in the next moment …
[ harmonious. ]
The city Lord’s cold expression instantly turned dull.
[ harmonious. ]
But soon, the city Lord came back to his senses. His dark eyes were full of killing intent as his aura rose sharply!
Without any nonsense, his five fingers turned into a claw and clawed at PEI Ling’s heart.
However, this attack that seemed powerful and could crush any living creature had not even touched PEI Ling when his wrist was grabbed by him, and he could no longer move!
[ harmonious. ]
The city Lord immediately struggled, but PEI Ling held her wrist firmly and was unable to break free.
[ harmonious. ]
Hearing “Senior Sister Li’s” angry rebuking, PEI Ling was instantly shocked. This voice … It was that golden immortal from the netherworld race!
‘What … What’s going on?’
The other party clearly had the absolute upper hand. This was the netherworld, and it was also the place where the other party’s race was located. The time, place, and people were all in the right place. The other party had everything in his hands.
Moreover, with the cultivation base of a golden immortal, no matter how strong his Foundation was, he was still no match for him.
In order to survive, he was even prepared to abandon his incarnation or his main body!
Why did this golden immortal suddenly …
PEI Ling was suddenly unable to think. However, with the system’s control, the weakness that came from the bottom of his heart had disappeared.
The familiar power shook his limbs and bones, beginning to fill his entire body.
At the same time, a sense of comfort and pleasure filled his soul and body.
PEI Ling instantly felt that his soul was quietly strengthening.
[ harmonious. ]
As time passed, PEI Ling’s aura became stronger and stronger, while the city Lord’s aura became weaker and weaker.
The familiar abode quietly disappeared, the bamboo disappeared, the wind chimes stopped, and the gray and white world appeared again.
Senior Sister Li’s face changed, and she took on the appearance of the city Lord of bamboo city, pianluo.
In the empty courtyard, a beautiful female cultivator in a luxurious dress and a lot of pearls and Jade stood not far away. It was Mo Yi.
‘Mo Yi’ looked like she was struggling, as if she had witnessed the entire process. However, her Dao body was bound and she could not move or make a sound.
As order and rules were restored, dance’s aura became extremely powerful again.
Dark, profound, terrifying, and cold … Burst out from his body!
The city Lord had recovered to his peak!
However, his expression was strange at the moment, and he did not have the slightest intention of attacking PEI Ling.
PEI Ling’s body was bursting with energy. Not only was his lost Yang Qi completely replenished, but his Foundation aura had also improved slightly.
At this moment, the city Lord suddenly raised his head and kissed PEI Ling.
PEI Ling immediately felt as if there was something extra in his body.
He and the city Lord had formed an indescribable connection in an instant.
“Ding dong! Your Yang Qi has been replenished …”
“Ding dong! The system has started to cultivate [ boundless secular world, fear me like the heavens ] for you …”
The system’s notification rang out once more. Under the system’s control, PEI Ling pushed away the dance and threw it aside. Immediately after, he cast a spell.
In the next moment, PEI Ling’s entire person seemed to be in a profound state as he continuously grew taller. A majestic and lofty aura circulated around him.
It was as if he was the heavenly Dao, the order, and the taboo in the unseen world!
In the void, countless ink clouds gathered like an ocean. Thousands of lightning snakes swarmed and flew. The sound of thunder rumbled and roared.
The purple and green lightning was brilliant and vast, illuminating an incomparably majestic city in the darkness!
The city was reflected on the surface of the muddy yellow River. It was vast and seemed to fill the end of the entire River.
The city was deathly silent, and the might of the heavens lit up the entire area!
The immortal Technique was successfully cast, and the system notification sounded again.”Ding dong! This cultivation has been completed. Thank you, host, for using the intelligent cultivation system. With one click of the button, you can ascend without worry! Please give me a five-star rating if you are satisfied …”
In the next moment, PEI Ling regained control of his body.
※※※
The netherworld.
Ying city.
After entering the pitch-black city and observing carefully, one would discover that the houses and streets were all made of bones.
Under the erosion of time, the race’s bones could no longer be recognized. There was only endless coldness lingering around them.
Blood splattered on the long Street, turning it black.
As the smell of blood wafted in the air, the usually spacious streets were now filled with cold bodies.
The Grand Sun primordial fire had already been extinguished, but the Golden armor was still bright.
Among the corpses of the human race, there were all kinds of strange-looking corpses, big and small, weird and absurd, scattered on the streets.
Looking down from the sky above bamboo city, all the paths leading from the city gate to the highest point were filled with blood and piles of new corpses. The dispersed vitality had not dispersed in time and had turned into invisible pillars of air that rushed into the void.
In the depths of bamboo city, a huge nest was like a Lone Peak that rose from the ground.
Within the cave, a large shadow silently floated in the air.
It was like a cloud of smoke, changing and dissipating. It did not have a fixed form, only shadows, with dense hands, feet, sharp teeth, and vertical pupils.
Step, step, step …
Subtle but uniform footsteps, mixed with the clanking of armor, came from the entrance of the nest.
Soon, groups of retreating humans entered in a single file.
These humans were full of killing intent. They were all standing with their backs to the shadows in the cave.
‘Kong Qi’ and ‘Gu Miao’ were also among them.
Sensing the presence of a living person, the heart devouring worm extended its tens of thousands of arms into the void without any hesitation!
In the next moment, all the humans who entered the place stopped abruptly!
At the same time, he felt a pale and cold arm pressing on his shoulder.
In an instant, all the humans were immersed in their past memories.
The ‘heart devouring worm’ opened its mouth and bared its sharp teeth, biting at the few humans who were closest to it.
However, at this moment, the leader of the humans suddenly raised his hand and cast a profound spell.
A terrifying life force was rapidly drained from the human’s body. Under the Golden armor, his face aged rapidly. His youth was gone, and his face was covered in wrinkles.
He had aged 10000 years in the blink of an eye!
At the same time, the true fire on the bodies of all the humans suddenly leaped and became extremely powerful in the blink of an eye. Tens of thousands of flames gathered like a flood, like a flowing river of fire, instantly burning away countless ghosts.
All the humans were jolted awake.
BOOM!
The ” heart devouring worm ” bit into an empty space, and the few humans who were standing there fled with a narrow escape.
At this moment, the leader of the humans spoke in an old voice, ” “This is the true body of the ‘heart devouring worm’.”
“The mission of our group is to eliminate the ‘heart devouring worm’.”
&Quot; this mission can only be successful. Failure is not allowed! &Quot;
&Quot; kill!!! &Quot;
As soon as he finished speaking, all the humans launched their attacks. Thousands of spells rained down!
A series of teeth-numbing sounds rang out as the heart-devouring worm retracted its arms.
All of his arms retracted, and then from the middle, from top to bottom, they gradually unfolded like a flower that was rapidly blooming.
In an instant, the memories of countless living beings filled the entire nest like a tsunami!
Some young demons were hunting for the first time under the guidance of their elders …
There were young humans fleeing in panic under the moonlight …
Some human couples were pushed away by their loved ones in the face of danger and escaped with their lives, but they were completely disheartened from then on …
There was a spiritual plant that grew from absorbing the Emperor flowing pulp, but in the blink of an eye, it withered and died in the sky …
Spiritual beings gained spiritual opportunity from heaven and earth to give birth to spiritual intelligence …
Some villages were hidden in remote areas, and the years were peaceful …
There were living beings who were disciplined by the court at a young age, with great ambitions and diligent practice …
Each memory seemed to have become an independent world, layer upon layer, whistling down.
Boom boom boom …
The brilliance of the spell technique shone through the void, reflecting the clanging of the Golden armor. It was cold and full of killing intent!
Countless attacks pierced through the sky and landed on a certain memory.
The memory was like a cloud of smoke that was scattered. It quickly faded and disappeared. The many spells that fell into it also disappeared.
Before the humans could make another move, the memory fragments were magnified rapidly. Like cities of memories, they enveloped the humans.
All the humans present were pulled into memory fragments one by one …
※※※
Above bamboo city.
In the void, the pressure was terrifying.
It was like a bowstring that had been pulled to the extreme, and it dissipated invisibly.
A huge throne hung high in the sky, and a majestic figure sat upright and still. The crown beads were like a curtain, covering his face. He did not move at all, just like a painting.
In the void opposite him, two dead figures also stood quietly.
The two sides seemed to be facing each other.
In a flash, a layer of smoke rose from the bodies of the two dead.
In the blink of an eye, their entire bodies began to collapse. Their black robes faded, the yin Qi dissipated, and their death intent disappeared … The originally indestructible soul bodies began to collapse and disappear rapidly.
On the throne, Zhong kuilie lowered his eyes slightly and looked at the battle situation in the city with a burning gaze. He quickly confirmed that most of Yuan’s clones had been eliminated.
All the teams had already started to fight against Yuan’s main body …
Zhong kuilie opened his mouth instantly, his deep and majestic voice spread across the entire area, ” “Praise my true name, and reward me for my contributions!”
