Chapter 164 Living and Dead
There is a legend about gray clouds. This legend goes back to the birth of the ghost world. It was a very distant time, so far away that even myths and legends have not appeared yet.
According to legend, there were only four layers between heaven and earth, including the turbid world, Shangyou, Taiqing and Taojing. At that time, ghosts were scattered in various worlds and became a powerful force. At that time, there were only two races in the world, living and dead, whether it was the demon race, barbarian race or human race, living and living were close partners, dead and dead, companions and friends.
The battle between the living and the dead never stopped. The turbid world, Shangyou, Taiqing and Taojing were in the four realms of war.
This battle lasts for a long time, and it is a very painful thing for living people or dead people. After all, living people will die sooner or later, and dead people come from living people. In fact, the palms and backs of hands are all flesh on their bodies. The two sides can't argue and cannot resolve it. After all, the strength of the two sides is not much different.
Later, the two most powerful beings between the living and the dead signed a war contract, and the dead people voluntarily gave up the four-level world, while the living people were responsible for creating a world suitable for the survival of ghosts for the dead.
It took a thousand years to mobilize all the power of living people, Shangyou, Taiqing, the three realms of Tao Jing, the monks, demons, barbarians, and most of the ghost clans worked together to dig such an infinitely wide under the turbid world.
After this world was excavated, a total of 18,000 giant pillars were used to support it. From then on, those who live will become living, those who die will become dead, and those who die will not invade each other.
However, after the Guiming Realm was excavated, many things happened that even the existences in the Dangjing World did not expect.
For example, the giant cave that devours the soul that may not necessarily appear at any time, called the Reincarnation Disk or Reduction Cave, such as the pattern that appears on the 18,000 giant pillars, such as the clouds floating in the sky.
These three things, called ghost things in the underworld, are secrets that even the existences at the level of the Taoist mirror cannot understand, and are more mysterious secrets in the world.
No one knows what the gray clouds floating above the ghost world are and what their purpose is. They only know that once the ghost comes into contact with the gray clouds, they will be chewed by the gray clouds and disappear without a trace. There is no way to know where they go, whether they become part of the clouds or something else.
In short, there is one thing that is the consensus of all the ghosts in the ghost world, that is, once you enter the gray cloud, you will not think about coming out again. It is the cemetery of the dead and the final destination of the dead.
Fang Dang was in an extremely violent world at this time. From the outside, the gray cloud seemed to be as quiet as it would not move, but it was completely different when it went deep into the gray cloud. There were crisscrossing fiery torrents everywhere, and Fang Dang was as painful as ten thousand swords torn in it. Fortunately, Fang Dang had a physical body. If it was not protected by the physical body, the fiery torrent could tore Fang Dang's soul to pieces in a few strokes. Even if he stayed here, the soul would melt away. After all, the soul was minuscule, and the flame-like hot wind here was extremely strong. Running from the most yin and cold place to such a fierce place Fang Dang was like jumping into the fire pit from an ice cave. At first, it was fine, Fang Dang's stiff body thawed and recovered, but it was only a little comfortable for a while. Now Fang Dang felt unbearable.
Fang Dang really couldn't figure out why there was such a scorching and violent cloud in this place where the yin energy was everywhere.
Is this what the book says about the harmony of yin and yang?
Around them are giant pillars, which remind Fang Dang that he was still in his original position and had not been thrown into an unknown world.
Fang Dang desperately leaned towards the giant pillar. Although the hot winds that kept rushing around continued to change directions and blew horizontally and vertically, the giant pillar could finally stop it.
Fang Dang approached the giant pillar and turned around the giant pillar. Finally, he found a place that could not be blown by the hot wind. It was much more comfortable to stay here. The only disadvantage is that the direction of the place that could not be blown by the hot wind is constantly changing. Fang Dang had to turn around the pillar. Although it was quite hard to turn, Fang Dang finally felt much more comfortable. As long as it was not blown by the hot wind, it would be more comfortable compared to the world under the gray clouds, at least it did not have the coldness that penetrated into the depths of the soul.
Fang Dang was surprised to find that his soul had been tempered by the cold and cold in the ghost world, and then torn by the strong wind in the gray clouds. Fang Dang suddenly found that his soul had become stronger and stronger than before.
Just like smelting iron, after hot and cold forging, the iron block becomes harder and more resilient.
This discovery surprised Fang Dang, but when he thought that he didn't know how to get out of the gray cloud, there was nothing left.
After resting in the leeward place for a while, Fang Dang was able to slowly open his eyes and take a closer look at the world. However, even if there was no hot wind blowing, the surroundings were still burning. Fang Dang's eyes could only squint, otherwise the moisture in his eyes would evaporate rapidly.
There were huge pillars all around Fang Dang, and they were still going upwards. There were pitch-black rocks above Fang Dang's head. These giant pillars were pestled on the black rocks one by one. Fang Dang saw this scene and became more convinced that the ghost and darkness link was supported by these giant pillars.
These giant pillars are completely different from the ones covered with moist moss seen below. At least, these giant pillars do not have that layer of moss here, so Fang Dang can see their true colors.
Just as these giant pillars were curved textures. When Fang Dang carefully looked at these textures, the long-lost voice suddenly sounded in Fang Dang's mind: "The universe cares about hands, and all things are born from the body."
Fang Dang was shocked and was overjoyed. This was the sound of the "Yin Fu Jing". Fang Dang's five thieves' viewing method comes from the "Yin Fu Jing". It can be said that Fang Dang is now promising to the "Yin Fu Jing" and is very trusting.
Therefore, when the sound of the Yin Fu Jing sounded again, Fang Dang was about to jump up. With previous experience, Fang Dang knew very well that there was no nonsense in the Yin Fu Jing, and this sentence must contain some secrets.
Unfortunately, Fang Dang's ancestors were not here. Although Fang Dang read some books, he was far from able to interpret the "Yin Fu Jing".
It is impossible to even understand Fang Dang from the literal meaning. This sentence is really too difficult for Fang Dang to understand.
Fang Dang can only remember this sentence firmly, hoping to find an explanation in the future.
Fang Dang could not keep spinning around the pillar, so Fang Dang had to find a way to leave the scorching cloud.
There was a sea of clouds under Fang Dang's feet. The sea of clouds was like a layer of sponge on a stone. It was soft when stepped on it, but as long as you stomp it hard, you will know the hardness below.
After stomping down, Fang Dang's soles of his feet hurt severely, making his feet stiff and numb.
Fang Dang then pulled out the Qianye Blind Grass Sword and slashed hard. With a tingling sound, the Qianye Blind Grass Sword was only inserted a few centimeters.
Because the spirit doll of the spirit of the weapon crawled out of the inner elixir of the strange poison, it stood naked on Fang Dang's shoulder. The spirit doll of the weapon crawled out twice.
Fang Dang looked at the spirit doll, and the spirit doll looked firm.
Fang Dang suddenly realized, then nodded repeatedly, and turned the sword in his hand and slashed towards the giant pillar behind him.
Fang Dang saw the white silk transformed from the white-faced man pierced into the giant pillar. Although the giant pillar was hard, it was definitely not indestructible.
At this time, Fang Dang slashed away with a sword, and sure enough, the sword body was embedded in the giant pillar.
Fang Dang couldn't help but be overjoyed. As long as he could dig a hole in the giant pillar, he could drill out of this violent and scorching world from the giant pillar.
Fang Dang slashed desperately with one sword. Every time Fang Dang waved his sword, the spirit doll standing on Fang Dang's shoulder opened his mouth and blew hard. The power of the sword immediately doubled. However, Fang Dang knew that the spirit doll was getting smaller and smaller on his shoulders. Fang Dang knew that the spirit doll was using his life to help him get out of trouble.
Fang Dang didn't say much, and each sword was more forceful. For Fang Dang, the biggest problem was that every time he slashed one or two swords, he had to change his direction, otherwise the burning hot wind would make his skin hurt.
In this way, Fang Dang was turning around and slashing the giant pillar.
I don’t know what material this giant pillar is made of, but it still has the ability to recover, so Fang Dang slashed the marks on the giant pillar before when Fang Dang turned around and came back, it disappeared.
Unless Fang Dang can continuously dig in the same place, it is impossible to dig a big hole in this giant pillar that is enough for him to sneak into and reach the world below. Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible to achieve.
Fang Dang had to stop the sword in his hand and glanced at the spirit doll whose body was shrinking by 100%. Fang Dang apologized slightly, but the spirit doll didn't seem to feel anything. He sat on Fang Dang's shoulder and held his head and thought.
Fang Dang couldn't keep spinning around a pillar.
At this time, Fang Dang began to look at other pillars. The patterns on each pillar here were completely different. Fang Dang wanted to find something special from these patterns, but unfortunately he couldn't see the reason after looking at them for a long time.
Fang Dang looked at the pillar in the distance and took a deep breath, then suddenly plunged into the violent and scorching wind, ran to the other pillar quickly, found the leeward point, and began to wander around the pillar.
Fang Dang changed more than a dozen pillars in a row, and these pillars were almost the same, and did not provide Fang Dang with much information. At this time, Fang Dang raised his head and began to study the rock wall above his head that was as dark as black charcoal.
When he came to the ghost world through the huge gold nugget, Fang Dang felt that he was falling. Perhaps, above the rock above his head, there was the turbid world.
