Chengtian Ba ​​Suo

As the curse fell to the ground, a portal of blue light opened in front of me.The waves in the void quickly stabilized. I took one more look at Grandpa Shi, and finally raised my legs and stepped into the light gate.

After stepping in, I immediately chanted another mantra and escaped into nothingness.

The reason why I am so careful is because I don't know where I will land in the underworld when I step out.If you're lucky, there may be no one inhabited, and you won't even be able to see a single ghost.If you're unlucky... Maybe I just step on Yan Luo's head and come out.

After escaping into nothingness, I looked around, and it was basically the same as the hell I saw last time.Underfoot are black waves, soft and bouncy.This is the Nai River, a legendary river that runs through the heaven and the earth.

Looking around, there was no ghost in the river, so I breathed a sigh of relief, thought for a while, and opened my mouth to recite a mantra: Chengtian!shift!

The spell exited, and my figure in nothingness immediately transformed like smoke, and in the next moment, I appeared in another not-so-unfamiliar place.

There is a huge arch bridge in front of you, with human face patterns on the bridge, a faint black air permeates the bridge, and sometimes you can hear the cries of resentful souls.

Nai River Bridge!

I don't know how many miles I have taken with this step, I only know that my head is a little dizzy and my legs are a little weak.

This spell is the biggest harvest in a week.

Because considering that after entering the underworld, there is no longer so much time to find the direction, and no one will lead me the way.Therefore, after careful consideration, Grandpa Shi decided to let me directly use my mind to drive the power to "teleport" me to the destination.

And the reason why he didn't send himself directly to the underworld was because all the souls who entered the reincarnation had to pass through the Nai River Bridge.If I'm lucky, I might be able to rob the old way directly by the bridge.Even if I am unlucky, the old man has already passed here, but at least I have been to the underworld last time, as long as I see the bridge, I know how to enter the Hall of Yama.

Of course, this is actually a very risky approach.

For the will, though useful, is a dead thing.It can't fully understand human thoughts, but just completes its tasks as faithfully as a machine.If I were far away from the Naihe Bridge at that time, maybe I was only halfway through the teleportation and then stopped because of the exhaustion of power, and completely exposed myself.

Some people may say, then why don't you just set the location to open the portal at the Naihe Bridge.

I've tried this method before, but after opening the door, my power flowed out like a river with a sluice.If I really want to enter the underworld, I'm afraid I will exhaust all my strength if I can't even support the Naihe Bridge.

Although random teleportation is also risky, it has a certain chance for me to preserve my strength.Comparing the two, which method to choose to act, needless to say.

This is also reflected from the side, the eight-cable method does have many restrictions.Will is like God, it is all-powerful, but not omnipotent.Because above the will, there is still the bondage of heaven.

Only Tian Gang is omnipotent.

Stepping on the Naihe Bridge again, the feeling in my heart is different.Because I am alone this time, and the purpose of coming is to bring back the soul of the old man.

The Naihe bridge under the feet is still soft, giving people the illusion of stepping on the flesh.This feeling is very strange, even though I have been very courageous now, I still feel numb all over.

There were continuous humming sounds from all around, like the sound of wind, and like the cries from the mouths of the faces on the bridge.

Occasionally, from under the bridge, there will be a clatter.I looked up and all I saw was an arm.

The arm was mutilated, the flesh drooped, and it danced, as if greeting someone.His face was hidden under the black waves, and before he could surface, a few strands of black air entangled viciously, dragging him completely into the bottom of the river.

The black air looks like a human being, with heads, hands and weird horns, it looks very scary.I only took one look, and I didn't dare to look under the bridge again.Because there seemed to be countless human faces hidden in the dark river water under the bridge.As I looked down, my face was reflected in the water, and from the angle above, it looked like there were many dead faces behind me.

too frightening.

The last time I came here, the sky in the underworld was still fiery red, like clouds were burning.

But this time, the sky looked gray, and looking at the end of the sky ahead, it seemed darker and darker.Covered like a dark cloud, even the breath carries a heavy taste.

I didn't dare to think too much, and walked forward quickly.

There is not much Dao power left, if you can't find the old Dao before it is exhausted, you have to come back next time.But reincarnation waits for no one, and the chances of delaying it for a day are much less.

The Nai River Bridge is so long that I walked and ran for a long time before I crossed half of it.

At this time, there was a clattering sound of chains colliding behind him.

I looked back, but my eyeballs were about to pop out of shock.

A ghost messenger with a strange appearance, holding a steel fork in one hand, and pulling a long chain with the other.Many "people" who couldn't see their faces clearly were linked together by chains penetrating the heart.

In this way, the ghost messenger grabbed one end of the chain and led the countless "people" behind to move forward.It was three meters tall, and it took a big step, and it caught up with me in a short while.

I was so shocked that I broke out in a cold sweat. Although I was in a void, I still subconsciously hid by the bridge, for fear of blocking its way.

The ghost messenger turned a blind eye to me and walked by, and the "people" it brought, I only realized when I passed by that they were all floating without touching the ground.

Guicha is like flying a kite, but the kite is made of human souls.

That's right, these should be dead people, who were led to the underworld by ghost messengers.

Suddenly, several streams of black air sprang out from under the bridge. Although the shape of these yaksha-like black air was still somewhat blurred, their power was surprisingly great.Once those seemingly unconscious souls were caught by them, they instantly came to their senses, and were at a loss as to what to do, screaming in panic.

However, the ghost messengers in front didn't care about this, and those souls who were in trouble were captured and fell under the Naihe Bridge.

There was a crashing sound in the vacant part of the chain, and the floating speed of the soul behind seemed to be accelerated, and the vacancy was immediately filled.Only then did I understand why the voice I heard before came from.

This is really... don't the souls who enter the underworld have no self-awareness?It seems that he regained consciousness only when he was caught by the ghost under the bridge.

If this is the case, what about Lao Dao?

I feel cold hands and feet. Although the old Taoist was not afraid of ghosts in his life, he must be the same as these ordinary souls after death.And when he passed the Nai River Bridge, would he be taken away by something under the bridge?

If this kind of thing really happens... how can I find him?

I was a little flustered and depressed, so I couldn't help but took out the Tongming Jade Pendant and wanted to use it.

Before entering the underworld, Grandpa Shi taught me some common sense.Among them, he mentioned the magical function of the pendant jade pendant in the underworld.

As a precious jade that communicates with the world and the underworld, the pendant pendant is not only used for divine granting, but also has many unimaginable strange abilities.

For example, when the Dao power is sufficient, you can observe the Three Realms and the Nine Nethers with the Jade Pendant.It is even possible to use a jade pendant to open a passage, directly arresting souls, ghosts and even immortals.

The former one can still be imagined, but the latter one makes people feel too incredible.

When using the Tongming Jade Pendant to extend the field of vision, it feels like opening a passage parallel to reality out of thin air.But in this channel, I can only watch, but can't do anything.

Grandpa Shi said that it was because my Taoism was not strong enough, and my understanding of the eight-cable road method was not deep enough.At least in my mind, I haven't integrated the universe into my heart.

When he said this at the time, he was very emotional and said: Your grandfather is so powerful that no one can match it.His understanding of God's will has reached an extremely deep level.What is this like?Just like a geologist, he has a pair of divine eyes that can see through earth, rocks, and the ground.When the combination of heart and strength reaches the point of integration, it can be called invincible in heaven and earth.

I was very curious and asked him: compared with you?Will it be better than you?

Grandpa Shi smiled and said: Is it the sky or the earth?Or is this mountain and river even more powerful?

Uh... I hesitated, thought for a long time, and finally answered: This is not comparable, and there is no way to compare it.

Why can't it be compared?

I don't know how powerful the sky is, and how can the earth be called powerful?What can be used to prove that it is powerful, and to what extent?

Don't you understand how powerful Tian Gang is?Grandpa Shi asked: Earth and mountains, such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, floods, don't you understand?

I groaned and didn't know how to answer, so I could only say weakly: That's okay.

Grandpa Shi shook his head: That's why I said that you didn't integrate the universe into your heart. Everything in this world is in the universe, why can't it be counted.Every flower, every plant, every tree, every insect, every bird, every beast, you also don't understand these things.Comparing me to your grandfather is like comparing the sky with the earth, or asking who is better, a boxer or a chef.This is the unanswerable question because you are asking the wrong one.

Grandpa Shi's words seemed a little profound.I understand what he means on the surface, but the deeper layer is very vague.That's just a concept, completely beyond words.Perhaps, this is the so-called can only be understood, not expressed in words.

And Grandpa Shi said: Tongming Jade Pendant is a bright light in the underworld, you should take it as your heart.What your heart thinks, it will do for you.Don't treat it like a dead thing, or else it will be a waste of money.

This sentence sounds like it is describing the essence of the eight ropeway method.But I know that Grandpa Shi is not talking about the Fa, but teaching me how to use the Tongming Jade Pendant correctly.Just like what he said, I have always regarded the Tongming jade pendant as a dead thing.In my heart, it is just a strange piece of jade, and has no other use.

But when Grandpa Shi said something, I immediately had a different feeling in my heart.That feeling is very strange, as if I understand, but also as if I don't understand.
