Chapter 154 Ye Jie Yaksha Plain

Chapter 154 Ye Jie-Yaksha Plain

"Where should we go next? When can we go to the Well of Reincarnation?"

After handling the affairs of Tianxuan Palace, Li Ba looked at Ye Jie with a hint of asking for advice.

After seeing all kinds of extraordinary things about Ye Jie along the way, Li Ba was shocked to find that it seemed that he had never really understood him from the beginning.

Although Ye Jie was still at the late second level of strength, in Li Ba's eyes, he had become unpredictable.

He was not very strong, but he was able to provoke a fight between the two Yama Halls. He was poorly qualified, but he had a gifted disciple. He was in danger, and there were noble people who came to help him. All these things shocked Li Ba, and even made him a little mountainous. A restless illusion.

At this point, Li Ba finally put away his usual arrogance and convinced Ye Jie.

Ye Jie was helpless: "With our strength, trying to break through the judge's blockade is really the same as seeking death. What we have to do is not to die, but to prepare strength... Next, we will go to the Yaksha Plain to find the hungry people there. Ghosts, let’s see if we can form allies with them.”

"Hungry ghost..." Li Ba thought, "If the soul is outside the jurisdiction of the Yama Palace, cannot be nourished by Yin virtue, and refuses to re-enter reincarnation, over time, it will transform into the direction of a strange ghost. Hungry ghost It's one of them. They are suffering from hunger all the time and want to eat anything that can fill their stomachs. Are you really going to find them? "

Ye Jie nodded: "I understand the risks of doing this, but it's just that the matter is at this point, and there are not many choices left for me. The hungry ghosts on the Yaksha Plain are one of the few potential partners that can be united. Even if I take the risk, I will A must try.”

Guazi did not come with me on this trip.

Seeing Xia Wei realize the impermanence of form, Guazi also became energetic and stayed on Feijian with Meng Junyao, planning to take advantage of the free time along the way to have a good discussion with Xia Wei.

Fourth-level practitioners have their own unique understanding of the true meaning of impermanence.

Talking to each other can provide unique insights and perspectives from different perspectives and experiences.

This kind of diverse thinking is of great benefit to the practitioners themselves, and it also allows outsiders to correct errors and prejudices in their ideas, thereby making themselves more diligent.

Now, without the protection of melon seeds, the journey to the Yasha Plain is even more dangerous.

There are not only hungry ghosts occupying the Yaksha Plain, but also powerful ghosts like Yaksha and Rakshasa. Even the judge must be careful to deal with certain ghost kings in the depths.

"If you have any concerns, just wait for me in Tianxuan Palace." Ye Jie didn't force it, he just said.

"Humph, are you kidding me? You dare to go to the Yaksha Plain at the second level. Now that I have entered the fourth level, am I still afraid?" Li Ba put his hands on his hips and glared at him.

After saying that, she took out the Shukuchi Stone, and the two of them immediately moved away.

Soon, the two of them came to the edge of the abominably silent wasteland. Looking around, they saw a dead silence, without any life, only an inexplicable desolation.

"Yaksha Plain is located outside the Hades Formation. Here, the Shukuchi Stone has lost its effectiveness and is no different from ordinary stones... For the rest of the journey, we can only walk on our own feet." Ye Jie reminded.

The reason why the ghosts have little interest in the Yasha Plain and allow this place to become a neglected area where evil ghosts gather has a lot to do with the failure of the Shuchi Stone.

On weekdays, when ghosts travel between the Yin and Yang realms, they only need to use the Shukuchi Stone in their hands to move thousands of miles in an instant. However, if they want to reach the depths of the Yaksha Plain, they must rely on their own legs. What will happen to them? It was dangerous, and there was no way to move and escape, which made it even more dangerous.

Arriving on the plain, Li Ba unfolded his Dharma Body and transformed from the short girl into a ten-foot-tall red demon.

She reached out her hand, grabbed Ye Jie, put it on her shoulders, and then ran quickly towards the depths of the wasteland.

"According to the information from the Hungry Ghost King, you should head south first, wait until you see a rift valley, and then change your route to the west. You will find the Hungry Ghost soon..."

Ye Jie pointed forward, and Li Ba suddenly increased his speed and became a little faster. The ground along the way shook violently, and footsteps like drums kept ringing.

Not long after, the rift valley appeared in front of the two of them.

A familiar breath hit their faces, and both Li Ba and Ye Jie were slightly startled.

When he came to the edge of the rift valley and looked towards the black air below, it was like an abyss with no end in sight. Ye Jie sighed with emotion: "This is clearly the aura of the Soul-Eating Abyss... I didn't expect that outside the Yama Hall, There is also a path that leads directly to the Soul-Eating Abyss."

Li Ba just regretted: "It's a pity... The Soul-Eating Abyss is a place where evil spirits go. The souls in it will be tortured and cannot be used as a normal path to reincarnation."

Before the two of them finished speaking, they saw several strange noises coming from the front. Listening carefully, it was clearly the shouts of everyone in unison.

Li Ba, who was at a higher level, obviously sensed more. He reminded Ye Jie on his shoulder: "Be careful, I can feel that the evil ghosts are ahead, and there are quite a lot of them..."

"I understand...wait, what is that?"

As Li Ba continued to move forward, a shocking scene soon appeared in front of the two of them.

Many hungry ghosts gathered here. One by one, they formed a long human rope and rappelled down from the edge of the rift valley. The hand of the hungry ghost in front tightly grasped the foot of another hungry ghost and was heading towards the soul-devouring ghost. The abyss goes deep.

There is more than one long rope of the hungry ghost. The further you go, the same long rope can be seen every mile.

"What... what are they doing? Unless they are crazy, no ghost will take the initiative to go under the Soul-Eating Abyss. Are they all tired of living?" Li Ba said in horror.

Ye Jie didn't understand either, so he had to continue observing.

Soon, one of the long ropes started to move. As many hungry ghosts exerted their strength, the long rope was moving up little by little, until the hungry ghost at the end was pulled up from under the cliff, holding high the rope in his hand. Then the nearby ghosts cheered continuously.

"That is……"

Ye Jie was stunned for a while when he saw what the hungry ghost was holding up.

That is a mushroom. Its cap is bright red, like a burning flame. Even if you just look at it from a distance, you can feel the temperature inside. If you look at it more, you will be burned by the high temperature. The stipe is upright and solid, complementing the cap. .

Ye Jie recalled it and soon remembered the name of the mushroom, which was the Burning Body Mushroom that grew in the Soul-Eating Abyss.

The body-burning mushroom has a unique effect and can be described as extremely poisonous. Anyone who eats it will feel the pain of burning oil, and the whole person will feel like falling into a frying pan, suffering unspeakably.

If eaten by someone who is immune to all poisons, the Burning Body Mushroom will release amazing power, enough to form a tongue of fire.

"I seem to understand what they are doing..."

Ye Jie took a deep breath, remembering the rumors about hungry ghosts, and realized something in his heart.

Sure enough, soon a hungry ghost brought a big pot and threw the body-burning mushroom into it to cook.

As the smell of the Burning Body Mushroom spread, the hungry ghosts who had formed the long rope gathered around the pot, salivating.

With swollen abdomens and short limbs, they couldn't wait to reach into the hot pot. Even if they were red, swollen and blistered, they would not give in. They scooped up the hot soup, drank it into their stomachs, and then fell to the ground, bearing the pain. Burning body and pain.

"Are they crazy?" Seeing this scene, Li Ba opened his eyes wide and couldn't understand what they were doing.

Ye Jie also took a deep breath and his expression changed slightly: "This is the first time I have seen these hungry ghosts. As their name says, they will do anything to get rid of hunger."

At this moment, a sharp-eyed hungry ghost spotted the tall Li Ba and let out a strange scream.

Noticing this uninvited guest, the hungry ghosts became excited:

"There's food! Food is coming to your door!"

"It's a fresh soul... hurry up, don't let the food escape!"

"Since the king's absence, we haven't had fresh souls for a long time..."

Being targeted by so many hungry ghosts with glowing green eyes, even Li Ba couldn't help but feel a little bit in trouble.

If they were just first- and second-level hungry ghosts, she might be able to deal with them, but based on a rough count, at least five or six of the hungry ghosts in front of her had reached the fourth level, which really made it difficult for her to deal with them.

"Hey, Ye Jie, they don't seem to welcome us. I think it's time to run away..." Li Ba looked tense and was ready to escape.

"Wait a minute..." Ye Jie advised her, "You've already come, how can you just leave like this? Let me talk to those hungry ghosts. Maybe things will turn around."

"Okay... I hope you won't regret it then." Li Ba secretly gritted her teeth, being stared at by so many hungry ghosts, she felt extremely uneasy. If Ye Jie hadn't dissuaded her, she might have run away.

While the two were talking, the hungry ghosts kept approaching and surrounded them in an instant. With several fourth-level hungry ghosts blocking the road, even if Li Ba wanted to escape, he would probably have to use all his strength.

Ye Jie stood on the shoulders of the red demon ghost. This height allowed him to be seen by all the hungry ghosts at a glance, and he said loudly: "I brought news about the hungry ghost king. He asked me to come to you."

After hearing the name of the Hungry Ghost King, all the hungry ghosts started talking about it:

"Really? Is he really sent by the king?"

"Nonsense. Ever since the Lord of the King Guang Palace came here, the king's life and death have been unknown. How can he get the news?"

"It must be a lie he made up to avoid becoming food. It's better to eat him quickly."

Seeing the doubtful expressions on the faces of the ghosts, Ye Jie added: "I have a way to contact your king. If you don't believe it, you can ask me questions that only you kings know."

The ghosts looked at each other in confusion, unable to tell whether Ye Jie was in reality or not. At this moment, a bloated hungry ghost squeezed through the crowd and came over. His tall body was no less impressive than Li Ba's one-foot body:

"If what you say is true, then you ask the king, when he ate the monks from the Western Regions, how did he share it with his most trusted subordinate, Wang Hu, who was me?"

Hearing this, Ye Jie took out the gold and red mind stone and sent a message to Qin Qiong in the ghost prison.

After waiting for a while, just as the hungry ghosts nearby were getting impatient and looking at Ye Jie and the two of them with increasingly evil eyes, Ye Jie finally received Qin Qiong's message.

After receiving the content of the transmission, Ye Jie finally felt relieved: "He eats the brain and you eat the organs."

Seeing Ye Jie's accurate account of the past, Wang Hu's expression changed slightly: "You are right... Apart from me, only the king knows about this matter. Sure enough, as you said, you can contact the king. "

The hungry ghosts were even more delighted:

"What he said is true...he really knows the whereabouts of the king!"

"As long as the king leads you, the hungry ghosts will never go hungry again. They don't have to risk falling into the Soul-Eating Abyss to pick mushrooms that are not enough to satisfy their hunger..."

"In this case, should we still eat him?"

When it came to eating, the expressions of the hungry ghosts changed again. Completely driven by hunger, they looked at Ye Jie like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, unwilling to let him go at any cost.

It was Wang Hu who spoke, and then he suppressed the restless hungry ghosts: "Don't eat him, control your appetite. The top priority now is to find out where the king is and find the whereabouts of the king, more important than anything else!"

Under Wang Hu's intimidation, the hungry ghosts stopped talking. Although they were speechless, the green light in their eyes when they looked at Ye Jie did not diminish.

"Can you tell me where the king is now?" Wang Hu asked.

Ye Jie replied: "The Hungry Ghost King is currently imprisoned in the Netherworld Ghost Prison in Guangwang Palace. As long as the ghost prison blockade can be broken, he can be rescued. However, the ghost prison is extremely well-defended, and there are even judges guarding it. "It's not easy to break through the ghost prison. You need to join forces with other people."

After listening to Ye Jie's report, the hungry ghosts fell into deep thought. Wang Hu was silent for a moment, and then said to Ye Jie:

"Thank you for telling us the news about the king. Your kindness to the hungry ghosts will never be forgotten by the hungry ghosts... Now, please do one more thing for the hungry ghosts."

Ye Jie nodded and asked again: "What's the matter?"

"Be our food and fill our bellies. We finally have fresh souls to eat and no longer have to eat those painful body-burning mushrooms. All this is thanks to you."

Wang Hu said in a trembling voice. When he thought of the beauty of food, his body couldn't help trembling.

During the conversation, more and more hungry ghosts came after hearing the news. Among them, Wang Hu was not the only one who had reached the fourth level, but dozens of them.

Seeing that the hungry ghosts were about to make a move, Li Ba looked ugly: "This is bad... With my own strength, I am afraid it will be difficult to escape from the siege of the hungry ghosts. Ye Jie, is this your plan?"

Ye Jie was also a little helpless. Unexpectedly, it was not enough for the hungry ghosts to just learn the news about the Hungry Ghost King. They also wanted to eat the two people who came to report the news. He had no choice but to say:

"Wait, you want food, I can find food for you. It is exquisite food, cooked food, and it is much more delicious than the Burning Body Mushroom."

Wang Hu just shook his head: "I don't believe you. The king also let go of a ghost messenger before. The ghost messenger promised to bring enough food to the hungry ghosts. In the end, not only did he not do it, but he brought King Guang The army of the palace robbed the treasures of the hungry ghosts. From then on, no one can escape from the hands of the hungry ghosts!
