Zu An has been the de facto emperor in the Human Race, Monster Race, and Sea Race in recent years, so it is not difficult to guess the motives of the Emperor of Heaven for doing this.
Even the gods in the sky cannot escape the emperor's mind.
Since in this world there is the Dragon King of Jinghe River, there is the Netherworld, and there is Tang Monk who is studying for scriptures, then there is probably the Monkey King who caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace 500 years ago, and most of the world in the entire "Journey to the West" is also there.
At that time, the Emperor of Heaven was a little embarrassed by Sun Wukong. None of the gods under his command were a match for Sun Wukong, and they were beaten to the outside of the Nantian Gate.
But later when Sun Wukong was studying for Buddhist scriptures, he often encountered some immortal mounts that came down to earth and turned into demons. Those mounts would steal a magic weapon from their master, which would make Sun Wukong miserable. Although there was a reason for Sun Wukong to paddle, it was not because those gods were paddling freely.
Sun Wukong is making trouble in the Heavenly Palace?
It is estimated that the Emperor of Heaven also discovered that these immortals under his command were nominally his subordinates, but each of them was somewhat submissive, so he thought of attracting the forces of Buddhism into the situation to check and balance the forces of Taoism.
The two forces are fighting each other, so that he, the Emperor of Heaven, has more space to operate.
Speaking of which, if the Emperor of Heaven was the chess player behind the scenes, then if he wrote a letter to report to the Emperor of Heaven in the first level, he would probably be killed. It should be that the Colossus helped him at that time and allowed him to pass the level smoothly.
At this time, suddenly a ray of light gathered in front of his eyes and formed a figure, slowly walking towards him.
I saw this man wearing black imperial clothes and a crown on his head. Standing there, his aura surpassed all the kings of hell I had seen before in the underworld.
"Are you... Colossus?" Zu An asked with some uncertainty. He could clearly see the other person's face, but he found that he couldn't remember this face in his mind, and he couldn't even find some adjectives to describe his face.
Neither can be done.
The phantom smiled slightly and said: "Yes, I am the colossus you mentioned, but to be precise, everyone calls me Emperor Fengdu, the true master of the Netherworld."
"Emperor Fengdu?" Zu An was completely shocked. He had naturally heard the relevant legends, saying that above the five ghost emperors, there was also a supreme being from the underworld. Some legends say it is Ksitigarbha, and some legends say it is Emperor Fengdu. However,
These are some myths and stories from previous lives. After the current world of cultivation, the names of these powerful beings have great power and cannot be spoken casually.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but change his expression. Once this kind of existence was announced to his mouth, wouldn't he...
As if guessing his worries, Emperor Fengdu smiled faintly: "Don't worry, in my world, I can naturally protect you."
As he spoke, he flicked his sleeves, and a stone table and chair suddenly appeared between the two of them. There was also a wine pot and two wine glasses on the table.
Emperor Fengdu sat down and poured a glass of wine himself: "Old friend, sit down and have a drink."
Zu An was surprised and happy, but he was not afraid, so he sat down and had a drink with the other party.
"Good wine." It has to be said that this wine tastes better than any wine he has ever drunk. To describe it as "qiongjiangyuye" is a bit weak.
"This wine was given to me by you back then." Emperor Fengdu smiled.
Zu An came back to his senses: "You keep calling me old friend, but I don't even know who I am. Since you can block other perceptions in this world, can you tell me my true identity?"
This is the first time I see hope. In the past, no matter whether it was Mi Li or other beings, they could not express it with their mouths. But now in this special world, even the Emperor of Heaven and the Emperor Fengdu can say it.
I finally figured out a lot of my secrets.
Unexpectedly, Emperor Fengdu shook his head slightly: "No, there are too many causes and effects involved in you. Under the current situation, I cannot tell you your identity."
Zu An: "..."
As if seeing his dissatisfaction, Emperor Fengdu smiled and said: "Don't worry, seeing you now proves that our decision back then was right. You will become stronger and stronger, and eventually you will change your original destiny."
Zu An sighed: "You are all Riddlers, making it unclear what I should do now and how to change my destiny."
"You just need to know how to keep getting stronger." Emperor Fengdu said, "Then the keyboard is with you. With her here, she will always guide you out of the fog and reach the other side of success."
Zu An's surprise was extraordinary: "Do you know the keyboard system?"
You must know that this has been his trump card all along, and he never expected that someone would see through it.
"You call it a system?" Emperor Fengdu laughed, "How could I not know that I was one of the people who participated in building it back then. Speaking of which, I even contributed a gadget."
As he spoke, he made a move with his hand, and a dark dagger flew out from Zu An's arms. It floated in the air and trembled slightly, seeming very excited.
Zu An's heart moved: "Is the poison in the dagger yours?"
"Is there poison in the dagger?" Emperor Fengdu frowned slightly, "Your name is still as bad as ever. This is a must...forget it, you can call it whatever you want."
He gently touched the poisonous blade in the dagger: "In all the worlds, as long as it is a living being, no matter what existence it is, once it is scratched by this dagger, death will be its only destination. But now it has not been completely resolved.
The seal cannot fully exert its power."
After saying that, he patted it gently, and the poisonous dagger quickly returned to Zu An's arms.
"How can we completely unseal it?" Zu An asked curiously. No wonder the poison in the dagger contained such a strong death curse. It turned out to be the weapon of Emperor Fengdu, who was in charge of death.
"Let nature take its course, and you will know in the future. If you completely unblock it now, it will attract enemies that you cannot fight against, which will be disadvantageous." Emperor Fengdu said, "You should know that even if you have it, you are not the best in the world.
Invincible."
Zu An nodded. Although the poisonous skill in the dagger is incredible, it also has a flaw, that is, you must be able to hurt the opponent. If the gap between the two sides is too big, you cannot hurt the opponent, and this skill will naturally not be activated.
He originally wanted to ask about the keyboard, but the other party shook his head and said: "This thing involves too many causes and effects. What I can say about some things related to me is the limit. You don't need to ask anymore."
Zu An said angrily: "Then what can be said?"
Emperor Fengdu replied: "For example, this trial."
"It seems that I also passed the third level?" Zu An couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
"You are indeed very smart, and you are worthy of being my friend." Emperor Fengdu smiled.
Zu An: "..."
Why do I feel like I'm praising him on the surface, but I'm actually giving myself a pat on the back?
"Ordinary testers can deduce that the Buddhist sect's layout behind it reaches the sky. Only you can deduce that there is the shadow of the Emperor of Heaven behind it." Emperor Fengdu said with emotion. After countless years, this trial has ushered in all kinds of amazing talents.
A stunningly beautiful person, but it's a pity that she only guessed as far as Buddhism.
"I just guessed this by chance." Zu An was not modest. At first, he thought it was all the Buddhists who were planning it. But just now, he suddenly felt blessed and recalled all the unreasonable things. In addition, he had been in a high position these years.
I understand the emperor's mind, so I guessed it right.
Speaking of which, if it weren't for the memory of watching "Journey to the West" in his previous life, he probably wouldn't have thought of this level.
Thinking of this, he could no longer suppress the doubts in his heart: "Why do you always feel that this trial is tailor-made for me?"
"It's not fun to talk nonsense," Emperor Fengdu stroked the beard on his chin, "I have been fair and just from the beginning to the end. The reason why you feel this way can only prove that you are destined."
Zu An fell into silence, was it destiny...
In the past, he would have thought it was feudal superstition, but now that he has practiced it, he can vaguely feel the power of fate.
He quickly came to his senses and asked: "By the way, why would the Taoist Sanqing allow all this to happen? Taishang Laojun is the ancestor of the Li and Tang royal family, how could he allow the Buddhists to encroach on his private land?"
