After going through the purgatory-like scene again, Xu Ping felt calm and was not affected by the surrounding environment at all.
Old Wu, the Yin Chai, led the way, and four Yin Chai surrounded Xu Ping and Song Qingling in the middle, arriving at the abyss just now.
The dark clouds were also suspended there quietly.
Stopping next to the abyss, Yin Chao Lao Wu winked, and several Yin Chai understood. Then one Yin Chai said with a smile: "I don't know when you will come up, so I can call the ladder to pick you up."
Xu Ping glanced at them: "No need."
The Yin Chai's face changed slightly and he said in astonishment: "You are in the eighteenth level of hell. If you don't have a ladder, you won't be able to get up."
In fact, Zhong Kui had already introduced the Eighteen Levels of Hell to Xu Ping before setting off, but Zhong Kui had not been there for many years and did not know very carefully about certain things.
But among them, in the eighteenth level of hell, there is a way that can leave this place without having to go back.
Xu Ping had never thought about coming back, and he had one more thing to do before leaving.
Thinking of this, he narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Judge Lu said that if I go to the eighteenth level of hell, I will never come out again, so..."
"No need!"
Upon hearing this, Old Wu from Yincha repeated again: "I, Old Wu, just said that you must listen to Judge Lu. Have you given up the idea of continuing?"
"dispel?"
Xu Ping sneered and looked at Yin Chao Lao Wu until he stared at him until he was a little scared. Then he looked away and said calmly: "I have always been very obedient, but I still have to go down, but..."
"Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva asked me to come and do you a small favor."
As soon as this statement came out, all the ghosts were in an uproar.
Especially Yin Chao Lao Wu had the most intense reaction. He looked at Xu Ping in disbelief and said in shock: "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, you... you, what did he ask you to do for me?"
Xu Ping glanced at Song Qingling, who suddenly became nervous and secretly clenched the hand holding the Ghost Slayer Sword.
"He asked me to come..." Xu Ping looked at Song Qingling, turned his head suddenly, drew his sword out of its sheath, and shouted sternly: "Send you to the West."
"Whoa!"
The dazzling golden light suddenly appeared, and the four shadows were almost invisible.
It was known that they were in collusion with the Minotaur and Horsemen, so Xu Ping didn't waste any time and directly drew his sword and took action.
The golden light turned into a sharp sword light, and it flew away in the air with a constant rustling sound.
The sword light produced by the Ghost Slayer Sword is even more powerful. How can these four evil spirits be able to resist it?
The four sinister men had their own secrets, but they were killed by Xu Ping's sword before they were carried out.
The golden sword light drew a word in mid-air, cutting off the four evil spirits.
Immediately, they turned into flying ash and powder and disappeared without a trace.
After forty years of practice, I got it.
Xu Ping silently felt the growing power. While feeling happy in his heart, he forced himself to calm down.
It feels good to become stronger, but you must not regard this feeling as pleasure, otherwise you will become a killing machine.
The reason why we chose to take action here was because the position of Lu Zhidao was unclear. If he wanted to join the battle, he would inevitably fall into a hard battle.
After killing several evildoers with one sword, Xu Ping took Song Qingling's arm, jumped up, and landed on the dark clouds. The dark clouds immediately fell rapidly, heading towards the dark abyss.
Inside the House of Bones.
Lu Zhidao twisted his orchid fingers and raised a cup of fragrant tea. Before he brought it to his mouth, he felt the powerful sword intent in the distance. The tea in the cup swayed slightly, causing ripples.
"You are really decisive in taking action, but will you be able to leave the eighteenth level of hell in this way... You really don't know how high the sky is and how high it is."
With a smile on his lips, he took a sip of tea and said to himself: "Zhong Kui, Zhong Kui, haven't you thought that I am already in hell, comprehending the way of yin and yang, and one day, what I have lost will
I must get everything back from you."
Having said this, he crushed the teacup hard and let the hot tea pour into his hands.
…
The dark clouds were still falling rapidly, and they didn't stop for a long time.
Xu Ping walked all the way through the eighteen hells of the underworld, and the scenes in each hell were different.
But what caught his attention the most was the constant shouting in his ears.
Mountains of knives and seas of fire, peeling in oil pans.
When such tragic scenes appeared in front of their eyes one by one, Song Qingling turned pale and couldn't help but said: "I will be a good person in this life, no, in the next life, and in eternity."
Xu Ping shook his head and smiled: "If you are just a good person, there is no guarantee that you will not be thrown into this place after death."
Song Qingling raised her head and looked at him: "Brother Xu, how can we avoid going to the eighteenth level of hell?"
"Of course it's immortality."
"As long as you don't die, you will never come into contact with this!"
Xu Pingdao.
Song Qingling was stunned for a moment, a little speechless, such a simple truth, but it is undoubtedly the best solution to the problem.
"Then I wish you, Brother Xu, never die." Song Qingling said with a smile.
Xu Ping patted her forehead and said: "Be serious, what I said is a wise saying."
Song Qingling felt that the slap on her head didn't hurt at all. On the contrary, looking at Xu Ping's hearty smile, she even felt a bit of pampering in it.
When she was about to say something, Xu Ping interrupted her, "Be careful, we should be arriving soon."
He felt that the falling speed of the dark clouds was slowing down, and they must be approaching the bottom.
Song Qingling was also very cautious after his reminder.
When the dark clouds slowly stopped, what appeared in front of Xu Ping's eyes was a huge stone gate.
The edge of the stone door is carved with dragons and phoenixes, which is very simple, and the two huge doors are engraved with scenes that look like a battle between gods and demons.
It was quiet all around, with no one standing guard here.
And this is the first time I have seen the formal door after arriving in the underworld. I don’t know if it already exists or if it was added specifically because the evil god is here.
Before coming here, Zhong Kui also told Xu Ping about the situation of this evil god.
The matter is very complicated. Back then, there was a god and demon known as the Demon of Freedom, who had mastered extremely powerful powers.
At that time, none of the gods and Buddhas in the sky could be his opponent.
In order to rule the three realms, the Demon of Freedom used the power of the soul to completely control the Big Dipper Lord, and almost achieved his long-cherished wish.
However, in the subsequent battle, Beidou Xingjun desperately tried to regain his consciousness and died by forcefully self-destructing his body for the sake of the Three Realms. The power of his own soul also severely damaged the Demon of Freedom.
With the cooperation of the three realms, the Demon of Freedom was killed, but a ray of remnant soul and the remnant soul of Lord Beidou gradually merged together.
After reincarnation and reconstruction, Big Dipper Lord was reborn, but at this time, Big Dipper Lord possessed the demonic nature of the Free Demon. When the demonic nature was aroused, he went around doing evil again.
But because of his reincarnation and rebuilding, he no longer had the power of the ancient times, and was directly suppressed by several immortals.
Taking into account his true nature, it was Beidou Xingjun who had made a huge contribution after all, so he was not killed, but was thrown into the 18th level of hell for suppression.
All he wanted in his mind was that one day he would be able to eliminate his demonic nature.
Then, as the Fairy Garden was closed and the connection between the three realms was severed, Big Dipper Lord was gradually forgotten and stayed in the eighteenth level of hell for who knows how many years.
Looking at the stone gate in front of him, Xu Ping's mind couldn't help but recall Zhong Kui's previous words.
"If his divine power is restored, run away immediately without hesitation. If you find that his divine power has not been restored, it is recommended that you put his pain behind him and understand his sin."
Xu Ping agreed at that time, and this wave was simply a free reward.
Xu Ping could no longer imagine what kind of reward he could get by killing a quasi-immortal.
"Brother Xu, is the reincarnation of Lord Big Dipper locked behind this stone gate?" Song Qingling asked softly, holding the ghost-slaying sword in her arms.
Xu Ping nodded, glanced at her, and said, "Why, are you scared?"
"No!"
Song Qingling pursed her lips and shook her head: "I'm not afraid, I'm just thinking that if our vision can really be realized, I can live forever."
The eternal life she talks about is actually eternal death. As long as you don't reincarnate and live in a soul state, it can also be considered eternal life.
Xu Ping laughed: "I suggest you reincarnate. It would be such a cool thing to retain the memories of your previous life."
"Yes!"
Song Qingling woke up instantly.
Preserve your own memory and start practicing after you are born. In ten years at most, you will be able to achieve some success. Then you can go out alone to find...
Thinking of this, she felt that she had a bright future.
Then it seems that it is no longer so important whether the task at hand can be completed.
But seeing Xu Ping's attitude, she didn't say anything. She just regarded it as the last thing she helped Xu Ping do before reincarnation.
It's also good to deepen the impression.
How could Xu Ping imagine that the girl next to him had so many thoughts on her mind? She was just looking at the stone door in front of her and recalling what Zhong Kui had said.
It seems that in his introduction, there should not be a stone gate blocking the road, so how to open this stone gate.
After pondering to no avail, Xu Ping rushed forward.
He exerted force with both arms and pushed hard against the stone door. Xu Ping mobilized his true energy and injected it into his arms. He exerted more than ten thousand force on his hands, but the stone door in front of him did not move at all.
The moment he touched the stone door, Xu Ping raised his brows and revealed a playful smile.
I'm afraid I can't push this stone door open!
While he was lost in thought, he heard a burst of joking laughter.
"Ha ha……"
"Ignorant child, how can you push open this stone door?"
When I heard this voice, it sounded extremely old and a bit astringent, like a rusty clockwork. It was extremely harsh and indescribably unpleasant.
Song Qingling immediately covered her ears, feeling like her head was buzzing.
Xu Ping's eyes narrowed and he immediately guessed the identity of the speaker.
In this eighteenth level of hell, there is no sin, and it is completely the prison of the reincarnated evil god, Lord Big Dipper.
Then this speaker...
Xu Ping looked around and found nothing, then he turned to look at the stone door: "Then I dare to ask, senior, how to open this stone door?"
"senior?!"
The voice began to mutter to itself, "The last time I heard the word "senior", it was still a glorious time, but now..."
After a short silence, he said calmly: "Who are you and what are you doing here?"
Xu Ping chuckled lightly: "I asked senior first, and also asked senior to tell me how to open this stone door."
"Heh~~"
After a sneer, an angry voice came: "How dare you talk to me like this? If you let me see you, I will swallow you up in one bite."
Xu Ping said: "Then you should open the door."
As soon as he finished speaking, there fell into a long silence, while Xu Ping waited quietly, not impatiently.
"You know my story?"
"This door has stories written all over it."
The battle between gods and demons on the stone gate is obviously the story told by Zhong Kui.
When Xu Ping came into contact with the stone gate, he already knew that this stone gate was transformed from the soil.
The characteristics of soil are very strange. When it comes into contact with water, it will harden, which is very similar to something——
cement!
But what the soil is transformed into is similar to a liquid metal that can be transformed into any shape.
Obviously, in such a long period of time, I don't know how much divine power this reincarnation of Big Dipper has recovered, but the soil that trapped him seems to have become his weapon.
The stone gate in front of us is the best proof.
"Beidou Xingjun, do you want to open this door or not?" Xu Ping shouted loudly, directly identifying the other party's identity.
After a long silence, Big Dipper Lord behind him reincarnated and said softly: "No one has called me by this name for a long time. I will give you a chance. Tell me what you are here for, and I can open the door."
Without saying a word, Xu Ping took out the ghost-killing sword from Song Qingling's arms and said loudly: "I came here to end your pain. I don't know if this reason is enough."
The words just fell.
The stone door made a roar and opened in response.
And as the ancient stone door opened, like the rising sun welcoming a new life, light slowly began to shine inward from the stone door.
In the endless deep, flowing liquid metal, a figure was floating in it. Only his head covered with weeds could be seen, and his appearance could not be seen at all.
Xu Ping led Song Qingling and quickly walked into it, looking at these liquid metals. These were transformed from the soil, and they were also the goal of his trip.
In fact, Xu Ping and Zhong Kui's idea is very simple. It is good to be able to get it, but if it is really impossible, then the underworld can just keep the status quo.
Therefore, Xu Ping's primary goal during this trip was to ensure the safety of himself and Song Qingling.
Stopping a few meters away from the liquid metal, Xu Ping looked around. It looked like a cave, but the four walls were made of an unknown material and gleamed with light.
"you……"
Xu Ping had just opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, the flowing soil next to the body lying inside turned into a liquid snake and roared towards him.
Xu Ping hurriedly pushed Song Qingling away, and the copper coin sword swung in a circle of golden light in front of him, immediately blocking the incoming liquid soil.
