Xu Ping looked at the scene in front of him and was shocked.
When he came to the underworld through the Netherworld Passage, he was at the location of Luoyou Mountain.
However, at this time, it had turned into a deep pit, and the mountain seemed to have experienced subsidence and disappeared completely.
Curse?!
Xu Ping looked at all this in shock.
The moment his soul was crushed by Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, he felt an extremely strong pressure, descending to the underworld like heaven pouring down from him.
It's just that Xu Ping's soul dissipated at that time and he had no idea what happened next.
If Uncle Jiu hadn't called out his physical body and remnant soul from the void space, it would have been difficult for his physical body to wake up on its own.
In a deep pit.
Flames roared into the sky, hurricanes swirled, and huge waves roared.
It could be vaguely seen that there seemed to be a figure hanging in the air, surrounded by the three disasters of fire, wind and water.
The Buddhist charm on that figure is also gradually weakening, and the black lotus platform beneath him has also begun to wither.
"Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva!"
Xu Ping's eyes narrowed.
This was a good time to take action to deal with him, but Xu Ping discovered that somehow, there was still a circle of Buddha's body circulating around him, protecting him within it.
The punishment from heaven should be unstoppable when it falls.
But Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva did not know what means he used to maintain his proud posture and stand tall.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva closed his eyes tightly, clasped his hands, and recited the Ksitigarbha Sutra.
And what is blocking the punishment from heaven is the treasure in his arms - "Ksitigarbha Sutra"
A Ksitigarbha Sutra, which can be called the supreme treasure, temporarily blocked the divine power of divine punishment.
However, the number of scriptures in the Ksitigarbha Sutra is also being reduced page by page, and it is only a matter of time before divine punishment will come.
The surrounding fire, feng shui, has no effect on his physical body.
In fact, it was raging inside his body.
But Xu Ping still didn't dare to gamble. This was a natural punishment. He had never seen it before, he had only heard about it.
Who knows if he jumps down, Heavenly Punishment will include him and launch an offensive.
If so.
He has no chance to be reborn again.
Xu Ping looked around, pondered for a moment, and decided to wait here for the time being.
When the treasure protecting Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva disappears, it is time for him to launch an attack.
"Huh?!"
Xu Ping's eyes lit up and he found that lying on the ground in the distance seemed to be Zhong Kui Zhenjun.
He ran over quickly.
Originally, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva was going to go on a killing spree, but it seemed that the punishment from heaven was coming too quickly, and he was not given such a chance at all.
"True Lord!"
Xu Ping shouted sharply, and his true energy spurted out.
His current moral performance is less than 30% of what it was in his heyday. If Zhong Kui is fine, it will naturally be a big help.
Zhong Kui was washed by the zhenqi and stimulated. When he opened his eyes and saw Xu Ping, he subconsciously said: "Where is this?"
The words just fell.
He discovered that Xu Ping in front of him was still in the flesh, and he immediately shouted with joy: "What, you're not dead?!"
He looked excited, and the corners of his eyes were even a little moist, "I thought, I thought you..."
As a judge of the underworld, he has seen too many lives and deaths, and has already become hard-hearted.
Xu Ping used his life to pave the way for the underworld. How could he not be moved?
But seeing that Xu Ping was not dead, he still felt an inexplicable throbbing in his heart.
For Xu Ping, he watched him grow up step by step, so he always has a special feeling, otherwise he would not want Xu Ping to be his brother-in-law.
Xu Ping curled his lips: "Does the True Lord want me to die?"
Zhong Kui shook his head: "Of course not. Where is the Bodhisattva? Where did Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva go?"
At the moment when the divine punishment came, he was knocked unconscious by the huge pressure and only woke up at this time.
Following Xu Ping's gaze, Zhong Kui was stunned: "This...is this the legendary punishment from heaven!"
Xu Ping nodded and said, "It should be."
As he spoke, he looked at Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva beside him and said, "Where's King Chujiang? Why don't you see him?"
Zhong Kui shook his head: "I don't know!"
"As soon as you died, I fainted and had no idea what happened."
Hearing what Zhong Kui said, Xu Ping was even more afraid to go down into this deep pit. He guessed that maybe the king of Chu Jiang did not have enough moral integrity, and he might have turned into ashes under this pressure.
After being reminded by Xu Ping, Zhong Kui also looked around and looked around.
He found that all the meritorious officers and Yan Jun who were originally huddled together at the foot of Luoyou Mountain had disappeared.
"Zhenjun, I must tell you that right now, I only have the power of one blow."
Xu Ping explained his current state and stared at Zhong Kui's expression.
In fact, his words were mixed with water, except for Dahei who ran away when his soul was shattered.
He still has a certain ability to protect himself in the underworld at this time, which is why he dares to come to the underworld again.
But Xu Ping naturally would not put himself in complete danger. He said these words just to test True Lord Zhong Kui.
Although he knew that the other party would not take action against him, his caution and caution were not lost.
Zhong Kui's expression didn't change much. He looked at Xu Ping with a worried expression: "When we deal with Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva later, you can hold off on taking action for the time being."
Xu Ping nodded, but felt a little worried, and muttered: "Is the True Lord confident?"
Opportunities like this don't come often, it can also be said that they come only once in a blue moon.
Once he is allowed to recover, it is basically impossible to create such a situation.
Zhong Kui didn't answer him immediately. He pondered again and again and let out a sharp whistle toward the sky.
Good guy!
All communication depends on shouting, right?
The communication methods of the underworld are quite backward.
Not long.
There were many unscrupulous people coming from all directions, among them were the few meritorious officers who had followed Zhong Kui here before.
They quickly came to Zhong Kui and saluted him with respect: "Zhenjun, just now we..."
Zhong Kui raised his hand to interrupt them, and said in a deep voice: "No need to explain, Xiao Xu has already created such a situation for the underworld, and the next step is up to us."
Upon hearing this, several meritorious officers, Yan Jun, greeted Xu Ping and thanked him one after another, then turned to look at the figure in the deep pit together.
And in the process, more and more figures approached the pit.
There are ghosts in the underworld, and there are also ghost soldiers who were their enemies before.
However, at this time, the group of dragons was leaderless, and they were already a bunch of scattered ghost soldiers, and they couldn't even think of fighting against them anymore.
Zhong Kui glanced at them twice and then ignored them. The first task before him was to deal with the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva in the deep pit and recapture the Six Paths of Reincarnation that he had refined.
He arranged for two meritorious officials to expel the ghosts watching the fun, and at the same time arranged for the underworld to block the surrounding roads.
Wang Baishun spontaneously began to maintain order.
At the same time, he told a group of ghosts that after getting rid of the evil Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, everyone would be given a brand new home.
Xu Ping sat cross-legged by the pit, waiting quietly, taking advantage of this moment to repair his remaining soul.
The method he uses to repair the remaining souls is somewhat similar to Zhong Kui's method of eating ghosts.
Devour all the remaining souls floating in the air around you, condense them, and turn them into part of your own soul.
The underworld has just experienced a war. There are many soul fragments around, and they are all unconscious. After a while, they will float in the air.
The swallowed soul fragments still need to be condensed with the energy of chaos, otherwise they will be too complex and affect the quality of Xu Ping's soul.
So, this is an extremely time-consuming process.
"Look."
"There's something floating up there."
"It looks like a flower."
Several meritorious officers shouted loudly, which attracted Xu Ping's attention. They also came to the pit and looked down.
In the deep pit, they saw a white object, emitting a halo of light, slowly rising into the sky, approaching them.
They suddenly became vigilant, but Xu Ping smiled faintly: "Don't panic, they are here to find me."
What rose into the sky was the White Lotus Platform.
After Xu Ping comforted them, he frowned slightly and looked at Zhong Kui and said, "White Lotus Platform suddenly appeared. I feel like something is wrong."
Zhong Kui also nodded.
They have been paying attention to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva and found that although the Buddha aggregates around him were indeed being reduced.
But there is nothing unusual about it.
Having been in the pit for so long, they felt inexplicably uneasy.
Bailiantai went out of the deep pit, circled a few times in the air, and found Xu Ping's figure, with a bright white light.
"Xu Ping, you're not dead, I know I didn't misjudge you."
The voice belonging to the great monk sounded, and the white lotus platform flashed in the air and appeared at Xu Ping's feet.
After a slight silence, Bailiantai said directly: "I know what you are thinking, but if it continues like this, when he comes out, even if he cannot kill you, he will definitely be able to escape."
When Bailiantai brought this bad news, Zhong Kui frowned and said solemnly: "Why is this happening? This is a punishment from heaven."
"The Ksitigarbha Sutra given by the Buddha back then, after such a long period of baptism in the Dharma, would reach such a level. Even I was never expecting it."
The White Lotus Platform was transformed by Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's kind heart, and it was originally a part of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. Even he had not thought of it, and it was even less possible for others to foresee it.
"What about that?"
Xu Ping lowered his head and asked.
Now that Bailiantai has appeared, he naturally has a plan. He said solemnly: "There is only one way, and that is to take advantage of this moment to go inside. The Ksitigarbha Sutra can withstand the punishment of heaven, but it cannot withstand the magic."
Upon hearing what Bai Liantai said, Xu Ping, Zhong Kui and the others looked at each other in shock. Go down, that is no joke.
"I can only protect one person from heaven's punishment. I am transformed by a kind heart and am immune to heaven's punishment."
"I go!"
Zhong Kui was the first to express his attitude.
"No!"
Bailiantai said: "Although you are the judge of the underworld, at this juncture, there is only one person who has the greatest resistance to heaven's punishment, and that is Xu Ping."
"It means I have to make a trip and take the risk." Xu Ping said helplessly.
It's not that he is unwilling to do this, but because his soul and body are not complete, and his Taoism has not been fully restored, so he is not completely sure.
Now it is absolutely certain that if there is only this one chance, if you don't kill the opponent, everything you did before will be in vain.
"Except for him, you are all Yin gods. In the punishment of heaven, you will be suppressed until you can't breathe, and most of your Taoism will be gone."
Bailiantai continued.
Zhong Kui was also a little at a loss, asking Xu Ping to take risks again, how could he speak.
Xu Ping shook his head.
But so am I!
There are only 20 to 30% of the Taoist skills left. If you fail to solve the opponent and are solved by the opponent, then it is really gone.
There is no chance of rebirth.
"Xu Ping, I respect your choice."
"Me too!"
"If it doesn't work out, I can go."
"..."
There are different opinions and it has been difficult to make a decision.
Xu Ping thought quickly, weighed and weighed it again and again, and said in a deep voice: "In that case, I'll go."
Zhong Kui said hurriedly: "But..."
Before he finished speaking, Xu Ping interrupted him: "I'm not going to die. I already have a plan in my heart. True Lord, I need your incense."
"And you, if you have any trace of incense, give it to me."
Xu Ping's expression was serious and his moral conduct was not good enough, so there was only one way left to make up for it with the power of incense.
The particularity of the God-killing Art is that it is the best method in this situation.
The people in front of you are all the underworld gods, so they must have accumulated a lot of incense. Especially Zhong Kui, as one of the four great judges, can be said to be the one with the most incense among the underworld gods.
However, without their consent and freeing up his mind, Xu Ping would not be able to incorporate their incense into his body even if he used the God-killing Art.
Zhong Kui, who originally didn't understand Xu Ping's words, suddenly thought of the scene when he met Xu Ping for the first time.
At that time, there was a small amount of incense from the underworld, which he forcibly plundered when he used his magic.
"good!"
Zhong Kui directly agreed: "You can use my thousand-year-old incense as you wish. As he said this, he opened his arms and relaxed the restrictions of his mind."
"Me too!"
"Although I don't have much, I can still help."
"..."
None of the Yin gods present stepped back and expressed that they could take away their incense at will.
And when they performed this, the entire underworld and the incense offered by all the ghosts continued to gather here.
"good!"
Xu Ping shouted loudly and said: "If you gain the Tao, there will be many helpers, but if you lose the Tao, there will be little help. Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is doomed to fail."
He directly controlled the White Lotus Platform and fell into the deep pit. The moment I came into contact with the Heavenly Punishment under the Divine Pit, two light shields held me up.
A golden light.
A flash of lightning.
"The three disasters of fire, wind, and water are caused first from within the body. Your attention needs to be placed inside the body."
Bailiantai reminded.
Xu Ping nodded, remained silent, and approached the figure with the ghost-slaying sword while carefully observing the changes within his body.
suddenly,
He felt cold all over his body, as if a dark wind was blowing from Tianling Gai to the soles of his feet, making him chill and shivering uncontrollably.
At the same time, there were hurricanes circling outside the two layers of masks, hitting the masks again and again.
Bailiantai also noticed something strange about Xu Ping, and saw that there were more hurricane vortices around him, and a few petals fell down, blocking the center of the hurricane vortex, and the surrounding hurricanes immediately disappeared.
But the evil wind in Xu Ping's body needs to be solved by himself.
Fortunately, it was relatively easy for the energy of chaos to deal with the evil wind. Xu Ping mobilized the energy of chaos in his body to pursue and intercept the evil wind, finally eliminating the discomfort temporarily.
Seeing that the figure of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva was approaching, Xu Ping did not want to have long nights and dreams, so he started to use the God-killing Art.
He muttered incantations, waved his sword, and the power of incense began to gather from all directions.
