Chapter 59: A Preliminary Exploration of Purgatory
"Original Island, let's try to get more spiritual wine brewed. I always feel that we still have a little loss when we get half the price."
Knowing that the winemaker was for the benefit of the island, Li Lei still shook his head.
"We need to make a long-term plan. Only with the protection of the Tianlong Cult can we develop stably, so we should pay the protection fee. Also, if you let others participate in brewing, you won't leak the formula, right?"
"It's okay, they are just doing chores. If there are special equipment on the Immortal Island, there is no need to find chores. The last process is my own hands, and the water I use is also the spiritual spring in the spiritual pool, which others can't learn."
"That's good. The brewed wine will be stored in the fairy island. Don't make it too obvious."
"Don't worry, this is just a low-level spiritual wine. They can't see the yield. After getting it to the Immortal Island, my colleagues will purify it. I heard that you are already the Tenth Elder, congratulations."
The two of them whispered, and no one dared to get close, but not long after, the fourth brother Wu Nian walked in with a blushing face. He looked at the wine-making pool and waited for Li Lei angrily. The two had to end the conversation. Li Lei smiled and greeted him.
"If you dare to touch me, I will cut you."
The words as if the sound of mosquitoes entered Li Lei's ears, making him smile silently. He pinched her face in Wunian's shocked eyes and turned around and walked out. Wunian was so angry that he kicked him in the butt and followed him out.
"Where do you want to go, I will take you there. There are many beautiful places in the archdiocese."
"If you can go anywhere else, just take me to Purgatory."
After hearing what Li Lei said, Wu Nian took out the pink umbrella and stood up hesitantly, "You are not allowed to touch me anymore. Also, my real name is Wu Nianci. Apart from my father, you only know, and you are not allowed to tell others."
Diandian stood behind Wu Nianci generously, and naturally hugged her waist with her hands, which made Wu Nianci's body tremble slightly. He took a deep breath before urging his spiritual power to go straight to Purgatory.
"Do you a favor. There is a guy named Xu Meng in the outer sect. He transferred him into the inner sect to act as a day's punishment hand and a purgatory deacon. Except for your father and brothers, don't let too many people know that I asked you to do this."
"A small matter, what else do the Ten Elders have to give?"
This time, Li Lei did not touch his hands randomly, and Wu Nianci also became playful when he spoke, and Li Lei made fun of him casually.
"One day you wear women's clothing to let me see if I'm pretty? It's weird to hug you like this."
"Hmph~ Be careful I'll kick you down again, and don't be allowed to interact with messy women in the future. Be careful I'll kill them."
Depend on!
Li Lei didn't dare to say anything. This unruly woman wouldn't like him anymore. She could just as she knew the general and could not accept her. She would be beaten to death even if she was beaten to death. Thinking of this, her hand holding the other person's waist slowly loosened and finally grabbed the clothes.
"Hmph~ The stinky man really has nothing good, so that scares you? Let's go there."
As soon as he let go of his hand, Wu Nianci snorted again, spread Li Lei's hand that grabbed his clothes, and flipped it 360 degrees. This time he didn't kick it, but threw it down.
"Ah~ You crazy man, I'm afraid of height~"
The desolate roar echoed in the valley everywhere. When someone saw Li Lei falling from the sky, he immediately wanted to go up to help rescue him. But when he saw that it was thrown by the fourth disciple of the chief, he quickly shook his neck and waited to watch the show. Even some elders shook their heads and smiled bitterly. The leader of the Tianlong Sect even slapped his forehead, and he was also very troubled by his child.
Li Lei, who had been waving his limbs, suddenly felt that his neck was being grabbed by someone. His body stopped. Seeing that there was only more than ten meters away from the ground, the cold sweat immediately came down. When he looked up, he saw Wu Nianci's joking face. Just as he was about to climb onto her to take revenge, Wu Nianci let go again.
It was only ten meters long. Li Lei was no longer afraid at this time. He fell heavily to the ground and stretched out his middle finger to Wu Nianci in the sky and walked forward along the mountain road. He had just seen in the sky that there was a huge crack between two steep peaks. Many stone chambers with iron railings were carved out on the rock wall of the crack, and the bottom of the crack was filled with fog and could not see the bottom. It should be purgatory.
"Hmph~"
I don’t know what the gesture meant, but it’s definitely not a good thing. Wu Nianci snorted coldly and looked at the sky. He stood above Li Lei’s head while stepping on a pink umbrella and followed him. No one passing by dared to get close and avoided it from a distance.
Just like two little friends were furious again, they came to the rock wall above the huge crack. Li Lei looked down at first. Fortunately, he was used to looking down on the fairy island and did not feel dazzled. He walked along the rock wall to the entrance to the lower part, and saw something like a archway standing there, with two bloody words "Purgatory" written on it, and a large iron gate blocked the way.
No need to knock on the door, the people inside had already seen Wu Nianci flying in the sky, so they had already opened the side door to wait. When they saw that the Tenth Elder Trust had arrived, they quickly bent down to salute.
Seeing that the man's face was a little dark, Li Lei frowned and said, "Get up and take me in and have a look."
"Please bring this with you the Tenth Elder."
A dark bead stringed with metal wire was taken out by the janitor, and Li Lei took it in confusion.
"This is the evil-repelling bead. The tenth elder can hang it on his waist to prevent evil energy from entering the body to affect his cultivation." Seeing that he had hanged it, the man quickly welcomed Li Lei and closed the door. Only then did Li Lei see that there were many ghost-squeezing runes on the iron gate inside, but Earthlings no longer need to learn this thing, so he didn't pay more attention to it.
"Now Purgatory imprisons are imprisoned by 87 disciples from the sect who have thought of themselves and 17 lifelong death row prisoners. There were 12 hostile monks in the lower class, but only 11 died in the morning. The bottom class is the place where the Yin Spirit Root disciples of the Great Elder lineage are practiced. They often go out in a uncertain number, but they will not exceed 30."
Advance along the passage excavated on the rock wall, a staircase leading to the lower level will appear in a section of the road. The deeper the crack will become. Most cells are empty, and sometimes you can see the Tianlong Cult being locked up inside and facing the wall to think about your past. The more you go down, the more you commit the crime, the longer you will be imprisoned. When you walk to the cell on the edge of the fog, you can often see the human skeleton or mummy in the cell, and some living people with unsightly eyes are dazed there, they are death row prisoners and hostile monks.
They committed serious crimes and did not want to kill them easily, so they were thrown here and suffered greatly. Although the cracks would erupt spiritual energy, they were mixed with yin energy. Once these gases entered the body, they would make people feel biting pain and cold. It would be a dream to practice. Of course, except for the Yin Spirit root, the following is the paradise for Yin Spirit root monks.
When the gatekeeper arrived here, he did not dare to lead the way. Even Wu Nianci, who was following behind, dared not enter. The higher his cultivation level, the greater the impact he would be when he went down. Just as he was about to stop Li Lei, Li Lei had already walked down the ladder quickly, and disappeared without a trace in a short while. The remaining two had to wait silently.
The fog was confused, but you could still see some stone houses, but these stone houses did not have metal fences to keep people in. Some of them also had living utensils, which seemed to be used to live in people. Seeing the Tianlong Cultist who was practicing with his eyes closed, Li Lei understood that they should be the descendants of the Great Elder. This lineage of the Great Elder is strange enough. Most of the descendants are actually the same as his.
I didn't look at each floor, and walked directly to the lowest floor along the steps. When I stepped on the ground, I found that the ground was uneven. When I looked down, I saw that not only were there ghost-suppressing talismans on the ground, but there were also many reliefs of evil ghosts struggling. The relief was vivid, and the timid people could be scared to death at a glance.
The fog became thicker and thicker. I didn’t meet anyone. I only saw the fog floating past me. The so-called yin energy was useless to him at all. I just felt that the fog was full of spiritual energy. As long as there was a way to deal with the yin energy, it was indeed an excellent place for cultivation.
The further I walked forward, the darker it became. It seemed that I had walked through the crack above my head and went deeper into the ground. The crack had turned into a cave and gradually shrank. Fortunately, two rows of fog-driven lights appeared in front of me, guiding him toward his destination.
Walking forward, you can see the rock wall above your head in a hazy way. Li Lei stopped in front of a green light curtain. There were constant ferocious evil ghosts ramming inside the light curtain. Each impact would cause ripples in the light curtain. A burly old man sat cross-legged in front of the light curtain, watching the evil ghost hit the door quietly. Li Lei recognized that he was the elder, sat cross-legged beside him, handed over a bottle of spiritual wine, and opened a bottle and raised his head to drink.
"You're really anxious."
"Haha, isn't this going to perform your duties? What is this light curtain?"
After taking the spiritual wine, the elder took a sip and wiped the corner of his mouth, "I don't know either. Not only do I don't know, but my ancestors don't know. They only know that our Yin family has been stationed here to prevent evil ghosts from escaping. At that time, there was no even the existence of the Tianlong Sect. If we could understand this light curtain, our cultivation would improve by leaps and bounds, and it would not be a problem to cultivate the spiritual immortal. Unfortunately, no one succeeded, and we could only waste time here."
"Haha, the Purgatory Deacon is responsible for investigating the situation inside, how can he walk in?"
The elder quickly finished drinking his spiritual wine, and without any disgust, he picked up the bottle that Li Lei put beside him, and looked up and took a big mouthful. "This light curtain is only for ghosts. The outside attracts ghosts from the surrounding areas and prevents them from coming out. But it has a certain period of periods. There are several days every year when I have something to do, but I ran out to a ghost king. The world inside is very big, and no one can tell how big it is. It is also very chaotic. The ghosts devour each other and improve their strength, so many ghosts want to rush out. Alas... No matter where they go, the law of the weak is the unchanging law."
"Hehe, thank you~ I'll go in and take a look."
He took out two bottles of spiritual wine and put them next to the elder. Li Lei walked slowly towards the light curtain. The elder was about to stop him, but he thought that this guy was so confident and must have confidence, but he still shouted.
"Don't go deeper, be careful to meet the Ghost King."
At this time, Li Lei had already passed through the light curtain and saw that the back was getting farther and farther away gradually disappeared. The ghosts on the other side also chased after him, which made the elder stunned. Li Lei seemed to have no ghost-removing device, otherwise the ghost would have only scattered and would never chase him. He stood up and wanted to chase him, but sat down with a silence and continued to drink. If Li Lei was afraid, he would have run back by himself.
Chapter completed!
