Hey!Your patron saint of the underworld has been revealed!

Chapter 72 Under the Swamp
Just after Shi Erruo slapped Qiu Zhuo, the mud on the entire swamp began to move quickly, and it was getting faster and faster.

"Ehwu~~Ehwu~~"

The giant capybara even burrowed directly into the soil, which shows that the concentration of silt has dropped very low and the water content has increased sharply.

Shi Erruo began to sink deeper and deeper, and his trapped body went downstream with the flow of mud.

She felt that she could move her legs to a small extent, but she had exhausted all her strength just now and could not resist the impact of the underground river.

As soon as Qiu Zhuo saw Shi Erruo floating away, he immediately grabbed her hand.

At this moment, most of his body was already stuck in muddy water.

Suddenly, Shi Erruo felt a huge force on her feet, constantly pulling her down.

"Let go!"

Shi Erruo tried to shake off Qiu Zhuo's hand in panic, but the force on his feet was too strong. She didn't have time to react. She and Qiu Zhuo were suddenly dragged deep into the mud.

The giant capybara seemed to realize something was wrong, wandering around on the mud surface for a few times, and then kept sniffing the air.

"Ehwu~~Ehwu~~"

With one jump, it disappeared into the swamp, leaving only two fragile bubbles on the mud surface.

After a few seconds, it broke with a "pop".

Shi Erruo felt like he quickly passed through a very thick layer of soil, then fell into the cold water, and finally fell heavily onto a hard stone slab.

Everything happened so fast that she had no time to react. She only felt a pain in her back and arms.

"Shi Erruo, are you okay?"

At this time, she realized that Qiu Zhuo seemed to be holding her hand just now, so they were not separated.

Shi Erruo slowly opened his eyes, but could not see anything, only darkness.

She stretched out her hand and groped around, wanting to know where Qiu Zhuo was, "Where are you?"

A wet, sticky feeling appeared on Shi Erruo's fingertips. It seemed to be Qiu Zhuo's clothes that were stained with mud.

The next second, her hand was held, "I'm here."

Qiu Zhuo's voice seemed a little low, and he sounded like he was not in a good condition.

"Ahem..." Qiu Zhuo coughed twice and asked with concern, "Are you injured? I seem to smell blood."

Shi Erruo felt the part where he was in pain. He should have been injured, but he wasn't sure whether it was serious or not. "I...I don't know."

"Ehwu~~Ehwu~~"

Suddenly a cry came from the darkness.

Shi Erruo quickly identified the sound of the giant capybara, "The capybara also followed."

She reached towards the direction of the capybara's cry, wanting to touch it, but was held back by Qiu Zhuo.

"You can't see anything here, don't run around!"

"Ehwu~~Ehwu~~"

The giant capybara howled, and rustling sounds came from its direction, and it was unclear what it was doing.

Suddenly, a glimmer of light appeared in the dark space, and Shi Erruo looked over.

I could vaguely see the giant capybara holding a luminous night pearl in its mouth, staggering towards a stone pillar.

Shi Erruo recognized the bead. She had thrown it to this stupid thing to play with, but she didn't expect it to still be there.

After approaching the stone pillar, the giant capybara stopped and dropped the luminous pearl in its mouth into the slot on the top of the stone pillar.Suddenly, the surroundings lit up.

It turns out that there are countless mirrors embedded inside the pillar, which illuminate the entire pillar.

The bright light from the pillar was refracted to the other three pillars through the mirror on the stone wall next to it, illuminating the entire space at once.

After seeing his surroundings thoroughly, Shi Erruo realized where he was at the moment.

This is a huge tomb and very old.

Such a legend has been circulating in the Rakshasa world.

According to legend, thousands of years ago, there was a Rakshasa demon king who had a great opportunity and converted to Buddhism. He even obtained the golden body of Zhengguo and went to the Western Buddha Realm to see the Buddha.

Beings in the Rakshasa world built magnificent tombs for him to express their gratitude to him and hope to be protected by him.

Shi Erruo always thought that this legend was fabricated, until she saw various totems related to "Buddha" engraved on the huge tomb door in front of her, but right in front of the tomb door stood a towering bronze Rakshasa picture.

"This statue is so weird!"

Qiu Zhuo on the side stood up, looked at the huge stone statue in front of him, and wondered, "This bronze statue is made of a Rakshasa, but the handprint of this Rakshasa turned out to be the Buddhist seal of touching the ground to subdue the devil. Could it be that , this Rakshasa has entered Buddhism?"

Shi Erruo listened to Qiu Zhuo's surprised tone and asked, "What's wrong? Can't Rakshasa enter Buddhism?"

"No, it's just rare." Qiu Zhuo shook his head and carefully identified the couplets engraved on the bronze plates on both sides of the tomb door.

"With one breath of demonic eye gaze, thousands of living beings will turn into white bones."

"What?" Shi Erruo said in surprise, "Did you see the words "Magic Eye Gazing" written on it?"

Qiu Zhuo nodded.

Shi Erruo had heard about the magic eye gazing a long time ago, which is a long-lost secret skill in the Rakshasa world. Those who master the magic eye gazing can get rid of all the illusions in the world and see the true source of their nature.This secret skill is an opportunity for the devil to enter Buddhism, and it also opens up the initial connection between the Rakshasa world and the Buddhist world. It introduces the concept of faith into the clan and gives Rakshasa hope to calm down the irritable gene in his nature.

She got up from the ground with difficulty and walked slowly to the couplet.

Erruo didn't recognize the words above, but when she was recognizing them, she suddenly felt dizzy, as if something had penetrated her brain.

"You are hurt!"

When Shi Erruo heard Qiu Zhuo's voice, he turned around.

Suddenly, he felt that his vision was blurry and he was falling precariously.

Before closing his eyes, he only saw Qiu Zhuo's figure walking eagerly in his direction, and fell into darkness.

"When the time comes, when the time comes..."

I don't know how long it took, but Shi Erruo heard someone calling her in a daze.

The voice was ethereal and seemed to come from a very far away place.

Shi Erruo forced himself to open his eyes, "Who? Who is calling me?"

In the confusion, an illusory figure gradually became clear in front of her eyes. The clearer it became, the more surprised Shi Erruo was.

so similar!
It’s exactly the same as the bronze statue just now!
"It's me! The afterimage clone of the statue you saw, I've been waiting here for a long time."

Shi Erruo stood up in surprise, "Are you the devil's clone?!"

"That's right." The demon king clone looked down at Shi Erruo.

Shi Erruo became more and more surprised, "You just said you were waiting for me? How is this possible? I don't know you."

The Demon King's clone looked solemn, "You once pulled out the Sumeru Sword, so you are my chosen successor."
