Begin the path of immortality from mortals

The world of stone beads.

High in the sky, with a low, muffled thunder, a three-colored lightning ball the size of a head suddenly and mysteriously appeared.

Black, white and gold lights flickered above the thunder ball, and densely packed thin electric arcs kept jumping. The next moment, with a loud bang, the three-colored thunder ball suddenly increased several times in size out of thin air.

Then there were continuous roaring sounds, and dense and thick three-colored electric arcs shot out from the thunder ball. After the flash of lightning, a three-colored circular magic circle with a diameter of several feet was formed in an instant.

In the magic circle composed of three-colored lightning, lightning flashed wildly, thunder roared, and countless strange runes emerged at the same time, showing an extremely shocking scene.

At the same time, with a thunderous sound that shook the earth, a lightning pillar as thick as a water tank mysteriously appeared in the center of the magic circle. The three-colored electric arcs converged, and a human figure staggered and stood in the center of the lightning circle.

As soon as Lu Tiandu steadied his body, he casually cast a spell and the lightning magic circle under his feet disappeared with a roar.

"It seems that this lightning array still needs to be improved!"

Lu Tiandu released his divine sense and casually scanned the area, confirming the exact location where he had been teleported with the help of the lightning array. He shook his head slightly:
"Although this teleportation ability can currently allow me to teleport thousands of miles at once, it takes several breaths to use, and the teleportation location also has an error of several miles. At present, it is still not very useful in battle..."

"After this trip to the Styx, let's perfect this magical power with Youluo, Muqing and the others!"

As this thought flashed through his mind, Lu Tiandu suddenly disappeared from the stone bead world.

"Lu Lang, how are you? Are you feeling much better this time?"

In the space of the mountain and river map, in a wooden hall, seeing Lu Tiandu appear again, Mu Qing asked with a smile.

On the other side, You Luo also looked over with curiosity.

Over the past two years, the three of them have spent most of their time on this magical power of lightning array, and Youluo is somewhat curious about the current results.

"It can be used to travel..."

Lu Tiandu reviewed the results of the test and talked about some of his guesses:
"Now these errors in the joints are probably because there are still some defects in the fusion of lightning power and space power. I guess we need to improve the formation again. If Yin'er were here, maybe she could give us some suggestions..."

"In that case, let's discuss this with Sister Ruyin after we return to the human race!"

Mu Qing said with a smile. It was obvious that during the time they practiced together, she had gained a certain understanding of the other female confidantes around Lu Tiandu.

"I just received a message from Sister Lan. Calculating the time, it should be time for the last gathering of the demon kings. We also need to go meet Liu Zu and the others!"

"That's right, there's no rush to perfect this magical power. Let's go meet them first!"

Lu Tian nodded, and then sent Youluo into the stone bead world.

As Mu Qing cast a spell, a colorful light gate suddenly appeared in the air. The two figures flashed into the light gate and left the Mountain and River Map.

During the retreat three years ago, Lu Tiandu only took half a year to refine all the Yuan Yin power he got from Mu Qing. His body refining skills advanced to the seventh level smoothly without any accidents, and also made considerable progress.

It took him only twenty to thirty years to cultivate his body-refining skills to the seventh level of minor success, which was the fastest period of advancement for him since he entered the advanced stage of body-refining practice.

Of course, in addition to the continuous consumption of Qi and Blood Pills over the past twenty to thirty years, the huge Yuan Yin power of the four female cultivators in the middle and late stages of fusion, cousin Yu Shu, Bai Ning, Jin Yue, and Mu Qing, also contributed greatly.

After leaving his two clones to continue practicing in seclusion in the seventh-level True Spirit Yin Qi Cave, Lu Tiandu returned to the Blue Ghost Woman's cave on the sixth level, entered Mu Qing's map of mountains and rivers, and together with Youluo and Mu Qing, he comprehended the magical power of the Thunder Lightning Array.

More than two years have passed, and this magical power of lightning array has achieved some results.

Now, there are only three months left before the demon kings' scheduled trip to the River Styx. The purpose of this gathering is naturally to confirm the progress of refining the Xuan Gui.

At this time, Lu Tiandu was also preparing to meet with the two demon kings, Liuzu and Zhu Yuan.

In a hall in Xuanyin Cave.

In addition to the main seat, there are four independent tables and chairs in the hall.

In addition to the cave owner, Lan Guipo, and her disciple Huangquan Guimu, three of the four tables were already occupied by guests.

Among them, apart from the two evil demons of Earth and Blood, whose true identities were known to Lan Gui Po, the ones sitting in front of the other two tables were naturally Liu Zu, a tall and fierce-looking man wearing a black hat that made it impossible to see his true appearance, and Zhu Yuan.

Just as everyone was talking, there was a fluctuation in the void near the door of the hall. A black light array several meters in size emerged, and a black spiritual flower about ten meters in size suddenly appeared.

As the light array dissipated, Mu Qing and Lu Tiandu, who were standing on the black spiritual flower, appeared in everyone's sight.

"I am late, please forgive me, fellow Taoists!"

Mu Qing bowed slightly and spoke to the demon kings in the field.

Her cultivation level at this moment was still at the middle stage of fusion. The only difference from before was that her true appearance was revealed, and she was wearing a black palace dress that wrapped around her graceful curves.

Just as the pair of dark eyes under the six-legged bamboo hat were secretly looking at Mu Qing, the tall and muscular man Zhu Yuan at the other table shuddered all over, and a strange feeling emerged in his heart. He stared at Lu Tiandu fiercely, and his mind moved:
"Is this person Lu Tiandu, the Taoist partner of Mu Qing mentioned by the witch? I didn't expect that this person actually possesses the true spirit and true blood like me..."

What surprised him secretly was that he had never expected that the Zhu Yan true blood in his body could actually sense other people with true spirits and true blood.

However, although he noticed the similarities between Lu Tiandu and him, Zhu Yuan did not show much surprise. Just as he shifted his gaze, Lu Tiandu's eyes happened to look over here.

After nodding slightly, Lu Tiandu looked at Liu Zu, the strongest person in the hall, as if nothing had happened.

"Sister Mu, Fellow Daoist Lu, please take your seats!"

At this time, the blue ghost woman greeted the two of them as the host.

At the same time, the black spirit flower appeared in front of the empty table, and Mu Qing introduced Lu Tiandu to the others:

"You have all heard Sister Lan mention this, right? This is my husband..."

"Lu greets all the fellow Taoists!"

Lu Tiandu smiled and bowed slightly.

"Fellow Daoist Lu is actually a human cultivator?"

At this moment, a slightly hoarse voice came from under the six-legged hat that had been silent all this time. The eyes hidden under the hat flashed with something strange and were looking at Lu Tiandu:
"Although your cultivation is not that great, your body seems to be exceptionally strong. Could it be that you have practiced some secret body-refining technique?"

He has a natural ability that allows him to see the approximate strength of a person's body.

As far as he knew, the human race was one of the weakest races among the many races in the spiritual world.

As a result, Lu Tiandu's body seemed unusually strong in his perception, which surprised him secretly.

Originally, he didn't take Lu Tian mentioned by the Blue Ghost Woman seriously, but now he thought highly of him.

"Fellow Daoist Liuzu really has a keen eye. I do have some talent in the physical body."

Lu Tiandu chuckled.

"No wonder you dare to enter the abyss alone!"

Liu Zu sighed meaningfully, and then his tone became serious:
"I heard from Grandma Lan and Fellow Daoist Mu that Fellow Daoist Mu is interested in going to the Styx with us to look for opportunities?"

"Right on my mind."

"We have already divided the work, and each of us has been preparing for this matter for decades. Since you want to join, I'm afraid you can't just rely on Fellow Daoist Mu's face, right?" Liu Zu spoke in an indifferent tone while looking at Lu Tiandu.

"That's natural. Lu understands that there is no such thing as a free lunch."

Lu Tiandu looked confident, "Since I want to join, I must have something to show for myself..."

"Please say!"

Liuzu still looked concise and to the point.

Now the black ghosts refined by Lan Guipo have reached the expectations. In the next three months, they will successively perform blood sacrifices on Jingkong Demon more than a dozen times, in order to achieve the goal of making this Jingkong Demon, who is at the peak of his fusion state, drunk for several months.

At this juncture, Lu Tiandu suddenly appeared and wanted to join the plan of the five demon kings and share the opportunity. If they could not come up with something that would be helpful for this trip to the Styx, he would naturally refuse without hesitation.

"God of evil thunder!"

Lu Tiandu said calmly.

"What? You can actually use the Wood Divine Thunder, one of the five divine thunders?"

Liuzu suddenly stood up, with a hint of surprise in his tone.

On the other side, Zhu Yuan, who heard the news for the first time, also looked at Lu Tiandu with strange eyes.

As for Dixue, he also pretended to be surprised and looked at Lu Tiandu. As for Lan Guipo and Mu Qing, they knew it long ago and there was nothing strange about it.

"It's natural."

Lu Tian nodded, "If you don't believe me, you can follow me out to see my thunderbolt. I'm sure that with the help of my thunderbolt, our operation will be more successful, right?"

"The outermost part of the Styx Land is a Styx River that is full of restrictions. The Styx barrier is dominated by Yin energy. In addition to a large number of evil ghosts and fierce spirits, it also contains a large amount of Nether Demon energy."

Liu Zu explained in a deep voice while looking at Lu Tiandu, "If Daoist Fellow really cultivates the Divine Thunder to ward off evil, this evil energy will not be a big deal. Then we formally invite Daoist Fellow Lu to enter the Styx together!"

It was a surprise to him that Lu Tiandu was proficient in the divine thunder to ward off evil.

He had already foreseen that as long as Lu Tiandu's thunder magic was not too weak, their journey would definitely be much smoother.

When he thought about the fact that he could obtain the Styx Divine Milk, which was extremely rare in the entire Mayfly Clan, Liuzu couldn't help but feel a little excited.

"In that case, thank you very much, fellow Taoists."

Lu Tiandu nodded.

Normally speaking, when a team goes on an expedition together, they must discuss in person the order of distribution of the spoils. I don't know whether Liuzu forgot or agreed to the plan of dividing the divine milk equally among the six people. He didn't mention it at this moment.

As for Lu Tian, ​​he seemed to have ignored this problem.

Next, everyone came out of the Xuanyin Cave and felt the evil-repelling divine thunder released by Lu Tiandu. They were naturally very satisfied.

Even though Lu Tiandu only released less than 20% of the power of the evil-repelling divine thunder, it already made Liu Zu very happy.

Next, Liu Zu and Zhu Yuan, who had been making blood food according to the special recipe he provided over the years, went straight to the seventh level of the Earth Abyss and began the blood sacrifice.

The others will gather on the seventh floor in two months.

After Liu Zu and the other man left, Lu Tian began to assign tasks to everyone.

Mu Qing will then return to the third floor to sort out all matters in the cave. He will go to the fifth floor to transfer to Blood Flame Mountain. He also needs to refine three spirit slaves again.

In addition to studying the lightning magic array these years, with the help of the Purple Blood Puppet, his puppetry skills have also improved a lot. Now he has figured out a way to refine the body of the Earth Blood psychic puppet and strengthen the control.

As for the Blue Ghost Lady, she also had to pack all the utensils in the cave and put them into the mysterious cave given by Lu Tiandu.

When their journey to the Styx is over, they will never return to the Underworld.

After arranging the tasks, everyone took action.

In the blink of an eye, more than two months passed.

On the seventh layer of the abyss, in an extremely desolate gray desert, countless demonic shadows and ghosts appeared densely, the number of which seemed to be tens of thousands.

Most of them are ordinary low-level monsters from the abyss, while others are a little weird.

One part was covered by a large area of ​​dark and gloomy wind, with thousands of ghost shadows flickering faintly, and winds like ghosts crying and wolves howling emanating from it, making other monsters stay away and dare not approach at all.

It was the tens of thousands of Yin-armored Black Ghosts that the Blue Ghost Grandma used all her family fortune to refine, and only 60% of them were revealed in front of Liu Zu.

Most of these Yinjia Xuan Gui possess Nascent Soul-level magical powers, and a small number of dozens possess God-transformation-level magical powers.

And right above this gloomy wind, the blue ghost woman was floating there with her robe fluttering. Besides Huangquan Ghost Mother, her disciple who was in the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation, there were eight other black shadows behind her.

Each of these black shadows was several feet tall, wearing hideous-looking armor. Some held weapons, while others were bare-handed. When one looked at their faces, they were blurry and it was impossible to see anything clearly.

These are the eight Yin-Jia Ghost Kings that he has refined over countless years, and each of them possesses the magical powers of the Lianxu level.

These Yinjia Ghost Kings can not only fight alone, but are also part of her certain ghost magical powers.

Not far away from the large black wind, there were various motionless puppets of different heights.

Most of them are mud and stone puppets, about ten feet tall, with grayish-white or brown glowing bodies, but they are obviously made in an unusually crude manner.

A small number of them are dark green wooden puppets and metal puppets emitting black light.

These puppets are obviously much more refined, both in terms of the materials used and the talismans printed on their surface.

Above these thousands of puppet armies, two men in blood-red robes stood in the air facing the wind, with their hands behind their backs as if they were in deep thought.

As for the main puppet of Earth Blood, the Purple Blood Puppet, it was not released.

Not far away from the Earth Blood and the puppet army, on a black spiritual flower in the void, Lu Tiandu and Mu Qing stood in the air, looking quietly forward.

As for the gray ape Jin Ling, he had already been taken into the mountain and river map space by Mu Qing and did not appear here.

Of course, in addition to Jin Ling, Mu Qing also recruited several maids from the cave to serve him on a daily basis.

At the forefront of the puppets and monsters, there was a six-legged creature wearing a black cloak that covered his entire body from wind and rain. Above his head, there was a huge eyeball about ten feet in size floating in the air, flashing a strange grey light, as if observing the void.

Not far from Liuzu, the big man Zhu Yuan stood in the air, quietly waiting for something.

At this moment, the huge eyeball above Liuzu's head suddenly trembled, and then Liuzu moved his body and ordered:
"Fellow Daoist Zhu, the time is almost up. Hurry up and offer blood food for the final blood sacrifice."

"it is good!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yuan nodded, and with a flick of his sleeves, blood-red leather bags flew high into the sky. As they flew into the air, a series of "puff" sounds rang out, and a flash of blood appeared. Dozens of streams of bright red liquid turned into dozens of blood rivers and shot out from the leather bags... (End of this chapter)
