Misery: my feet step out of the flames of war

Chapter 176 Breaking through the forest prison and seeing the black moon

The Great Wall of Desperation is located in the northern part of the bardo world, but it faces east and west.

Xiaoyaoju is located at the starting point of this long wall. Luo Hou did not climb over the long wall in a hurry, but led Wujie Zunhuang from the starting point to the end point.

This long wall disappears at a thousand-foot peak.

Luo Hou stood up and wanted to climb to the top of the peak, but found that there was a thick barrier on the top of the peak.

"Ok?"

He tried to send out a palm energy, the force was vast, like a mud cow entering the sea, all the palm energy was absorbed by the barrier.

Luo Hou landed on the Great Wall, frowning in thought.

"Wu Jun, what's the matter?"

"The extremely powerful barrier has blocked the bardo world and turned this world into an independent area."

"Beyond the enchantment should be a difficult environment."

"Except for a single thought, the place where the bardo and the suffering are connected is the Galaxy Waterfall, not this place."

"I know that the state of suffering is below the state of extinction, and above it is the state of collection and the state of Taoism. The bardo realm is below the state of suffering. Could it be that what connects this place is the state of extinction?"

Luo Hou had been to the Mie Realm, and in order to pick up Xuan Min, he almost visited the Mie Realm. The landform there was quite different from the Bardo Realm, and it was impossible to judge whether it was the Mie Realm.

But Zunhuang was right, both of these situations were under hardship.

Unable to explore the road ahead, the two jumped off the Great Wall of Desperation and landed in Nili Sen Prison.

This is a dark, humid, miasma-filled jungle, somewhat similar to the Huozhai Buddha Prison, the difference is that there are only monsters in the Huozhai Buddha Prison, and there are ghosts, monsters and insects here.

Even though it was afternoon, the impenetrable woods completely covered the sunlight, leaving only the gray miasma.

Suddenly, a few black vines descended from the forest and bound towards Luohu and Emperor Wujie.

"Get out!"

Amidst the cold shout, Luo Hou slapped out a palm casually, rolling towards a forest in front of him like overwhelming palm force.

Boom boom boom.

With several loud noises in succession, not only the black vines were cut off inch by inch, but all the trees within the palm's reach were destroyed and turned into debris all over the ground.

"Hoohoho~"

As the trees within a ten-mile radius disappeared, several pale ghosts were revealed.

The clothes of these ghosts have long been rotten, and the skin is fibrous, showing the long time.

Yin Gui let out a shriek, brandished his ghost claws and rushed towards Luo Hou and Zun Huang.

The two of them raised their palms at the same time, sending the ghosts flying, and continued to move forward.

Pushing while walking, he quickly penetrated a hundred miles, and looking back, he saw a wide road in the jungle split by two people.

At this moment, the scenery in front of him changed, and a huge lake appeared. The lake was also shrouded in green mist, and there were a few simple wooden houses on the opposite bank.

"There are humans living here."

"Those who can build houses are not necessarily human beings, maybe demons, maybe demons."

Just when the two were about to cross the lake with light work, a figure rushed towards him: "You must not pass!"

The person came with disheveled hair, unshaven beard, and a piece of animal skin indiscriminately on his body.

"Who is your Excellency?"

"The two of you came from the Great Wall of Desperation? The old man Ji Zhong."

"It turns out that your Excellency is the ghost master Duan Junheng mentioned, and I am Luohou. This is the Emperor Wujie."

Ji Zhong smiled and said: "It's Lord Lingshou's distinguished guest, so please follow me to the cave for a while, the red tide will soon take off from here."

"This is actually the lair of the red tide?"

"Oh, it's that lake that hurts people. If you go over it and wake up the red tide, then the gods will be hard to save."

"Thank you ghost master, then I will avoid it with you."

Luo Hou wanted to find out the secrets of Nili Forest Prison, so he naturally wanted to meet the ghost master who had lived here for many years.

The two followed Ji Zhong around seven turns and turned into a cave deep in the jungle.

I saw a few oil lamps hanging in the cave. Under the dim light, there was no breath of life in the cave, but there were several large vats covered with wooden boards.

"This is?"

Zunhuang looked at those big tanks with curiosity.

"Hey, come here if you want to see it, don't be scared and scream."

Ji Zhong lifted the wooden board of one of the vats, Luo Hou and Zun Huang bent over to have a look, and their colors changed immediately.

Inside the vat was a pile of wriggling white maggots.

"Hahahaha~"

Ji Zhong laughed: "You two are quite courageous! These are the maggots that the old man specially caught from around the lake to study. Since the red tide didn't eat these worms, maybe these worms can restrain the red tide."

"These bugs are the chrysalis of the Red Tide?"

Ji Zhong shook his head: "It's not a chrysalis, this kind of maggot has three mouths, and it eats very fast."

He cut a piece of meat from an unknown animal from the wall of the cave, and put it into the tank. Sure enough, there was a "rustling" sound of gnawing.

"Unexpectedly, the ghost master lived here for many years to solve the disaster of the red tide. I deeply admire it."

"Where... the old man came here to investigate the ghosts in the Nidili Forest Prison, and accidentally discovered this lake and this kind of maggot."

"ghost?"

"The two of you should know that the bardo world accepts the souls of the dead, the innocent are reincarnated, and the guilty are thrown into the mud plow prison."

"Ah."

"After so many years, the number of criminal souls should be enough to fill the Nidli Forest Prison, but my late father discovered a strange phenomenon. There are almost no souls in the Nidli Forest Prison, only ghosts and monsters, as well as red tides and maggots."

Zunhuang asked: "Could it be that the souls devoured each other and turned into ghosts?"

"After my father took over as the head of the family, he came to the Great Wall of Impossibility and drew a new spell. After that, he went deep into the Nili Forest Prison. He never went back since then. He only sent a letter from the previous city lord."

"The letter from home must be important information."

"The old man found out about this through the family letter. After my daughter became an adult, the old man came here to look for my late father, and to investigate the disappearance of the soul."

Two generations have been consumed here, one has disappeared, and the other has lost its youth.

Luo Hou couldn't help being moved: "Please continue to talk, ghost master."

Ji Zhong sighed: "Decades have passed, and there is no trace of my late father, but the old man can be sure that the soul of Nidili Forest Prison was not swallowed by ghosts and monsters, but was sucked into that lake. .”

"It's the lake again."

"The old man put the souls he had extracted over the years, stamped the family's seal with the spirit control technique, and then threw them into the lake. Those souls were instantly sucked into the bottom of the lake, and then fell continuously until the old man lost touch with them."

"Since it's about the lake, I'll go check him out."

Ji Zhong waved his hands again and again: "I see that both of you are nobles, so don't risk your life so easily."

Luo Hou made up his mind not to say more, and waited for the night to fall.

There is a leaky hole somewhere in the hole, "tick, tick", bit by bit, making people anxious and peaceful.

Not long after, there was the sound of flapping wings outside the cave, and it was the red tide flying away.

Luo Hou stood up and said to Ji Zhong and Emperor Wujie: "Let's go now."

"You, alas!"

Ji Zhong couldn't stop him, so he had no choice but to keep up with Zunhuang.

This lake should have a radius of two hundred miles, and there is no grass growing on the shore, only sand and gravel full of maggots.

At this time, the moonlight was bleak, there was no wind and no breath, and the miasma over the lake was as thick as clouds.

"Your Majesty, you stay here to protect the ghost master. If something happens, retreat to the cave first."

"Don't you need me to accompany you?"

"No need."

Luo Hou jumped into the water.

In an instant, an extremely stench lingered all over his body. There was no lake water in this lake. The lake was full of filthy filth, which solidified into a liquid like water.

Luo Hou blocked his mouth and nose, and dived quickly.

After a hundred feet, this filthy atmosphere formed two tornado-like convection currents, one up and one down, containing huge energy.

"It's the pipeline."

The two streams of gas squeezed Luohou at the same time, and Luohu suddenly felt like a grain of wheat was stuffed into the grinding eye, and was about to be crushed into flour by a mighty force.

"The Heavenly Slashing Star Art, drink~"

He drew out the Cang Er Dao, and raised his true energy again, the three-color extreme energy circulated all over his body, and cut down.

boom!
Immediately, the two pillars of wind exploded at the same time, and the huge energy impact, such as a hurricane, a tsunami, or a nuclear explosion, caused the space to distort, the universe hangs upside down, and the world is like the end.

Just as he slashed down, Luo Hou had changed into a Brahma-body demon body, and the golden phantom turned into a solid body, withstood the huge impact brought about by the sudden change in space.

Then his body fell like a shooting star.

What appeared in front of me was another concave landform similar to a lake. The basin was surrounded by blood-colored waterfalls with huge drops.

Luo Hou quickly passed the blood waterfall and swept towards the concave pit.

At this moment, an extremely cold breath rose, accompanied by a wild power like ice for thousands of years.

"Such a landscape, so cold, could it be the Heiyuetian of Heihaisen Prison?"

Sure enough, as Luohu continued to fall, he saw the black sun in the ground, quietly staying in the depths of the ground, resisting the scorching fire of the earth's core.

Luo Hou quickly figured out, after the King of Hades cut off the passage between the Heihai Sen Prison and the Distressed Realm, why did the Winged Sky Demon, Shuo Tai Sui, Yizi Zhuogu and others still sneak into the Distressed Realm? path.

And the two up and down wind pillars just now should be the pipelines for transporting energy, and the souls in the bardo state flowed to the black moon.

It is impossible to judge now whether the souls were absorbed by the black moon, or whether the black moon was just an energy transfer station and transferred these souls to other places.

He didn't forget the voice that called him deep in the ground and gave him strength.

"Explore again!"

The Brahma-body demon body was transported to the extreme, turning into a giant with a height of hundreds of feet. Luo Hou stretched out his hands, trying to push the black moon away and go deeper.

Unexpectedly, the moment he touched the black moon, his hands were frozen, and a thick layer of ice immediately climbed up his arms, which seemed to freeze his whole body.

Black Moon's ice magic damage is a bit high.

Luo Hou shook vigorously, and the purple dragon shadow on Cang'er Dao galloped out, broke through the ice layer in one fell swoop, and took Luo Hou straight to the sky.

Glancing at the black moon with nostalgia, Luo Hou walked against the wind, passed through the explosive energy field again, and returned to the lake of the Nidili Sen Prison.

"Wu Jun, you finally came out!"

"Ok?"

Ji Zhong was in a hurry: "Midnight has passed, the red tide is about to return to the nest, let's leave quickly."

The three of them returned to the cave, and soon there was another deafening roar, rolling past the cave.

Zunhuang couldn't wait to ask: "Two hours down, what did you find out, Mr. Wu?"

"Below the lake is another foreign realm, and the energy between the two realms flows into each other. I suspect that the souls of the bardo world flow to the foreign realm through this, and the filthy air from the foreign realm rises to the mud plow forest prison, forming a red tide."

"I see."

Luo Hou already had some vague thoughts in his mind, but they were fragmented and difficult to link together for a while.

He asked Ji Zhong: "Who controls the reincarnation in the bardo world?"

"Who is in control? The souls of the dead will automatically fly into the alley of life and death in the bardo world. After 49 days, two doors will be opened in the alley. Connect to the path of reincarnation and enter the underworld."

The alley of life and death, the road of reincarnation.

Luo Hou secretly wrote down these two places, hoping that the road of reincarnation connects to the real hell.

　Holy demons and bardo dungeons, are they so unpopular?
　　There are so few people who subscribe, woo woo woo~~~
　　Wu Jun wants to establish a real reincarnation system, so that people in Xianshan can still have a chance to reincarnate, and continue their fate in the next life.
