Chapter 814 The Nether Hall and the Five Types of Nine Punishments!
The colorful and familiar colors once again filled the eyes.
Immediately afterwards, a strong falling feeling suddenly hit me.
As if they suddenly stepped into the air, more like falling into a cliff, Ye Wushuang, Chu Yuntian, and Lin Ruoer all felt that their center of gravity was lightened, their eyes blurred, and the whole world began to rise rapidly.
"Master!"
"Master!"
Chu Yuntian and Lin Ruo'er were both startled. They staggered and subconsciously reached out and grabbed Ye Wushuang, looking panicked.
"Don't be afraid."
Ye Wushuang smiled faintly, stabilized the two of them, and said comfortingly: "We're here now!"
Before they finished speaking, the two of them suddenly felt their feet stop. Sure enough, their bodies stopped falling, and the whole world stabilized.
The bright colors around me slowly faded.
A gloomy and cold aura swept over and enveloped the three of them in an instant!
"It's so cold..."
Chu Yuntian suddenly shuddered, raised his head in confusion, and looked around blankly, but his eyes suddenly widened.
At this moment, as the dazzling brilliance faded, the whole world became a lot darker.
The scorching sun is gone, the desert disappears, and instead, there is a gray space. Looking around, except for the eerie and simple tall palace directly in front, which is clearly visible, the rest of the place is dark and nothing can be seen.
.
The palace is majestic, hundreds of feet high, standing in the gray sky, and the roof cannot be seen at all; but just by looking at the coiled dragon stone pillars in front of the open palace door, it is enough to see how extraordinary it is.
Not only that, the entire palace seems to be made of a kind of ice-like stone; even if you are not close, you can feel the bone-chilling chill from the walls!
Above the wide palace gate, a large plaque half a meter wide and two meters long hangs on it, with these three large gold-lacquered characters crookedly written on it.
Unfortunately, it was not a human language; therefore, Chu Yuntian did not recognize it.
On both sides of the plaque, there are broad walls without windows, which appear thick and solid; and the smooth walls are actually covered with various strange scenes.
There are the turbulent waves of the sea, the thousands of miles of red land in the desert, the elves in the barren mountains, and the beasts of the jungle vying for supremacy...
These scenes are all composed of blood-red colors, adding a bit of horror and terror to the already vast and magnificent scenes.
Just looking at it makes you feel uncomfortable, creepy and trembling!
"Is this... the seventh floor of the Demon Suppression Tower?"
Chu Yuntian swallowed subconsciously at this moment, and looked away with some horror. He murmured cautiously and turned to look at Lin Ruo'er.
But he suddenly discovered that Lin Ruo'er was just like him, with a pale face, sweat on her forehead, and a frightened expression.
The two looked at each other and then looked at Ye Wushuang.
"Netherworld Palace!"
Ye Wushuang was looking at the plaque on the arch at the moment, with a smile on his lips and an indifferent expression, he spoke softly and said: "This should be the seventh floor of the Demon Suppression Tower!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his narrow eyes actually emitted a sharp light; not only was there no trace of panic on his face, but he also gave people a different look.
A look like revisiting an old place!
Could it be that Young Master has been here before?
Lin Ruoer and Chu Yuntian looked at each other for an instant, and the same question appeared in their minds.
Unfortunately, Ye Wushuang obviously didn't intend to explain, so he took a step forward and walked straight towards the palace gate.
Buzz buzz...
At this moment, the void behind the three people suddenly trembled; two colorful beams of light fell from the sky, falling instantly in front of the palace like shooting stars.
Seeing this scene, Ye Wushuang and the three of them stopped and turned their heads to look.
The beam of light faded away, and on the left were nearly a hundred warriors from the four great empires, led by Gongsun Hongyu, and on the right were nearly a hundred and four warriors from the upper kingdom, led by Sikong Yan and Gongmen Jin.
Everyone from all sides is here!
"Master Ye, are you not planning to wait for us and are you planning to go in first?"
Gongsun Hongyu was the first to speak at this moment. As soon as he stood upright, he instantly looked at Ye Wushuang, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said with a smile.
But before he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly glanced at the plaque above the palace gate. When he saw the large golden characters on it, his face suddenly changed, and a look of ecstasy emerged that was difficult to conceal.
"Netherworld Palace! Is this the Netherworld Palace?"
"Netherworld Palace?"
As soon as these words came out, Sikong Yan, Gongmen Jin and others on the side couldn't help but look puzzled. They looked up at the plaque and then at Gongsun Hongyu. They all looked blank.
Obviously, like Chu Yuntian and Lin Ruo'er, they did not recognize the three large gold-lacquered characters.
"right!"
Gongsun Hongyu nodded at this moment and explained: "This name is taken from the ancient times, when the Demon Court rewarded and punished all beings in the world, and set up a punishment institution - Nether Palace!"
"During the period when the demon clan ruled, this palace was the largest institution after the demon court. It was extremely powerful. It was specially used to reward good and punish evil. It could almost determine life and death with a single word, and decide right and wrong with a single word."
"Later, the demon clan built a demon-suppressing tower and named the floor used to execute sinful demons the Netherworld Palace!"
Speaking of this, Gongsun Hongyu seemed to be interested and explained further: "The Demon Court Suppression Tower is divided into five levels and nine punishments."
"The five categories correspond to the stars of the Demon Suppression Tower; they are the one-, three- and five-star Demon Suppression Towers that imprison ordinary small demons, the Seven-star Demon Suppression Tower that imprisons big demons, and the Nine-star Demon Suppression Tower that suppresses divine beasts."
"The nine punishments correspond to each floor of the Demon Suppression Tower; they are the first floor of Infinity, the second floor of Flame Hell, the third floor of Sea of Ice, the fourth floor of Knife Mountain, the fifth floor of Blood Pool, the sixth floor of Mortar, and the seventh floor of Wok Soup.
Eight layers of stone mill, nine layers of netherworld!”
"Among them, except for the nine-star Demon Suppression Tower, which covers the nine major punishments; the one-star Demon Suppression Tower, which only has the Netherworld Palace; the three-star Demon Suppression Tower, which has the additions of Flame Prison and Sword Mountain Two Realms; the five-star Demon Suppression Tower, which has the addition of Wujian, Yan
The four realms are the prison, the sea of ice, and the mountain of swords; the seven-star demon-suppressing tower lacks the two realms of the mortar and the wok and soup."
Listening to Gongsun Hongyu's introduction, everyone was stunned and froze in place.
As the warriors of the human race who claim to be the leader of all spirits, they know a lot of tortures. Naturally, they also understand the nine major punishments mentioned by Gongsun Hongyu.
To put it simply, the nine major punishments of the Demon Suppressing Tower are actually thirst, burning, flooding, chopping with a knife, drawing blood, crushing bones, crushing, boiling, and late execution.
Each one is a torture among tortures!
Moreover, the monsters are naturally powerful and powerful, many times stronger than humans; especially some big monsters, they are almost immortal.
Under such circumstances, carrying out these tortures is undoubtedly the greatest torture; the suffering involved is even more horrifying to think about!
"So..."
Sikong Yan glanced at the majestic palace with lingering fear at this moment, and asked: "Is this the last floor of the Demon Suppression Tower here, the seventh floor?"
"good!"
Gongsun Hongyu nodded slightly and explained: "Among the nine major punishments, except for the Nether Palace, the other eight realms do not have the power of life and death; therefore, in the five types of demon suppression towers, there will be a place with the power of life and death. This is the Nether Palace."
"I didn't expect that the corpse actually sent us directly to the last floor. This saved us a lot of trouble!"
Before he finished speaking, Gongsun Hongyu's face showed excitement again.
The Five Categories and Nine Punishments of the Demon Suppressing Tower had a very bad reputation in those days, and many great demons were feared. It is precisely because of this that the Demon Court was able to rule all spirits for tens of millions of years and remain standing.
Before coming to Ten Thousand Beast Ridge, he was prepared for all kinds of dangers he would encounter when he broke into the Demon Suppression Tower; but he didn't expect that he just went to the Infinite Realm, which is the least dangerous place, and was directly teleported here.
What an unexpected surprise!
"Are you done?"
At this moment, Ye Wushuang, who was standing in front of the palace gate, said with a smile: "If you haven't finished speaking, you can continue, and I will go in first."
"When the time comes, don't say that I broke the promise and didn't wait for you?"
Before he finished speaking, Ye Wushuang waved to Chu Yuntian and Lin Ruoer without waiting for anyone to reply, and turned around to enter the main hall.
"quick!"
"Enter the palace!"
Seeing this scene, Sikong Yan and Gongmen Jin gave orders almost in unison and rushed towards the palace.
The purpose of their coming here is to control the core stone of Ten Thousand Beast Ridge; and according to previous inferences, the core stone is in the Nether Palace on the seventh floor.
Now whoever enters the Nether Palace first will naturally be the first to get the core stone!
Seeing this scene, Gongsun Hongyu was uncharacteristically not in a hurry. Instead, he stood quietly and watched the people from the six great kingdoms rush into the palace one by one.
Even after Sikong Yan and others entered the palace, he was still not in a hurry. Instead, he looked at Ye Wushuang and the three people in front of the door, grinned, made an invitation gesture, and said with a smile: "Master Ye, please!"
"Emperor Hongyu, there is no need to be polite."
When Ye Wushuang heard this, he immediately showed a smile, waved his hand and said, "If you can, please go first."
Hearing this, Gongsun Hongyu was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Ye Wushuang to refuse at all. A strange look flashed in his eyes, and he immediately covered it up and said with a smile: "If it hadn't been for Mr. Ye who just knew how to reason and move with emotion. You persuaded the corpse Gu Yousui, how can we reach here so easily?"
"Sikong Yan and the others are ignorant. I am not a person who does not know right from wrong. Mr. Ye should invite me first!"
Before he finished speaking, he made a gesture of invitation again.
"Sir, are you afraid that there is danger in this Nether Palace?"
"Yes, Gongsun Hongyu obviously knows the Nether Palace very well. If he is suddenly so polite at this moment, there must be some deceit in it!"
Lin Ruoer and Chu Yuntian also noticed something was wrong at this moment and hurriedly warned in a low voice.
"ah..."
At this moment, a scream suddenly sounded from inside the palace.
"ah..."
"Ahh..."
Immediately afterwards, more intensive screams were heard one after another.
"Help..."
"Block it, block it quickly!"
"Retreat, retreat quickly!"
Soon, cries for help and frightened roars also rang out.
This scene immediately caused Chu Yuntian and Lin Ruoer's expressions to change slightly, and their whole bodies trembled. They subconsciously clenched their weapons and looked into the hall to check the situation.
Unfortunately, it was completely dark inside the main hall, and the view was extremely poor, so nothing could be seen.
After a while, the screams in the hall gradually weakened, and soon disappeared and returned to silence; it was as if they fell into a deathly silence in an instant!
"Well, it's almost done."
Ye Wushuang smiled faintly at this moment, looked back at Gongsun Hongyu, and said: "Since Emperor Hongyu is so polite, it would be disrespectful for me to be disrespectful!"
After saying this, without waiting for Gongsun Hongyu's reply, he stepped into the palace.
Chu Yuntian and Lin Ruo'er looked at each other, suppressed the fear in their hearts, gritted their teeth, and took steps to follow.
Almost as soon as the three of them entered the hall, a strong and pungent smell hit their faces, which was immediately terrifying and sent shivers down their spines!
"What a strong smell of blood!"
"Moreover, it's the fresh smell of blood!"
Lin Ruo'er and Chu Yuntian's expressions changed slightly, and they subconsciously pulled out their swords and blocked them in front of them, cautiously guarding their left and right sides.
The hall was completely dark, and the visibility was extremely poor, to the point where it was almost impossible to see even the fingers of one's hand.
Coupled with the weird screams just now and the smell of blood that hit their faces, it not only seemed sinister, but also extremely weird and full of weirdness, making the two of them have to be vigilant!
"You stay where you are and wait for me!"
At this moment, Ye Wushuang's voice suddenly sounded.
Immediately afterwards, the two heard the sound of slight footsteps, walking away slowly, as if Ye Wushuang had walked away.
Puff puff puff...
Soon, a slight sound of bubbles bursting suddenly sounded.
The next moment, groups of faint blue light emerged, instantly brightening the originally dark hall!
The sudden appearance of light made the two of them extremely uncomfortable. They could not help but squint their eyes and look forward.
Sure enough, he found that Ye Wushuang was no longer in front of him, but stood in front of a stone pillar a hundred meters away, looking up at the stone pillar in front of him.
"call..."
Seeing that Ye Wushuang was safe, the two of them couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, put down their guard, and began to look around.
This is a rather ancient hall, square in shape and extremely spacious, as big as the square in the Chu Palace.
Inside the hall, waist-thick blue pillars stand in an orderly manner on both sides. Each pillar is more than a hundred feet high, and there are also carvings on them of dragons and soaring clouds.
And those clusters of faint blue light came from the dragon eagles holding fist beads in their mouths. They were so densely packed that there were nearly a hundred of them!
"ah!"
At this moment, Lin Ruoer glanced at Lin Ruoer in the center of the hall, and suddenly exclaimed, as if she had seen something terrible, staggered back, and said with a horrified expression: "That...that is..."
"What's wrong?"
Ye Wushuang and Chu Yuntian were both attracted by the screams, and immediately looked up in confusion.
Directly in front of the three of them, in the center of the hall, the originally empty and clean bluestone floor was now strewn with corpses lying crookedly.
These corpses, without exception, were all covered with bruises, with hideous scars all over their bodies, their clothes were torn apart, and their flesh and blood were turned out. There was a bloody hole the size of a fist in their abdomen, which was bleeding.
There are even many people's internal organs and intestines, with the flow of blood, constantly overflowing from the blood holes and rolling to the ground. The scene looks horrifying and terrifying, like purgatory!
