Chapter 111: Netherworld (1)
Beneath the abyss of heaven, in the dark abyss.
The three of them came to the outside of the town and saw that the people and monsters around them were living in harmony without fighting.
(What is going on?)
The three of them walked into the town together.
(The people here are at least in the Foundation Establishment Stage, and there are quite a few in the Golden Core Stage as well.)
The people and monsters in the town looked at the three people who had arrived and pretended not to see them.
(There are always people who want to die, and want to come here to get opportunities, even if they know that this is a road of no return.)
Suddenly, a person stopped the crowd, pointed at the little phoenix on Lin Yixuan's shoulder, and said.
"Hey, I've got your eye on that guy on your shoulder. Give it to me and I'll spare your life!"
"Looks like someone is going to be in trouble."
People around were talking a lot.
Hearing this, Lin Yixuan looked at the person who was blocking his way and instantly became alert.
(This person is actually from the demon clan. He has two horns on his head, but I don’t know what his true form is? And I can’t even see through his cultivation level, so there is only one possibility, he might be in the Nascent Soul stage!)
"What if I say no?"
Lin Yixuan said with a serious expression.
Hearing the reluctance, the man instantly came in front of Lin Yixuan and punched him.
The moment the demon disappeared, Lin Yixuan tensed up his nerves, and the moment he noticed the demon appeared, he immediately crossed his arms to protect his head.
After being hit hard, Lin Yixuan was knocked back several steps.
Looking at the demon people who suddenly appeared, Li Ao and Wu Chen instantly distanced themselves from each other, feeling a little tingling!
(Teleport... This is the Nascent Soul Stage...)
Seeing that the other party had taken a solid punch from him but was still fine, the demon clan member exclaimed "Huh" and said.
"Yes, your reaction ability and physique are indeed genius-level. What I like most is to kill those self-righteous geniuses like you."
After the demon clan member finished speaking, he was ready to take action.
At this moment, a man in black instantly stood in front of Lin Yixuan and said.
"I am a genius of the human race. When will it be your turn as a demon to decide life and death?"
"Humph~ Once you come here, no matter who you are, once your lifespan is up, you'll end up being nothing more than a pile of dry bones."
The demon said with disdain.
(It looks like this guy has no intention of stopping.)
"So you mean to start a war, right?" The man in black emphasized the last two words.
(As long as he dares to say that one word, the other party will take the blame.)
(If I could beat you, I would have done it a long time ago.)
"Hmph~ You're lucky this time. You won't have such a good opportunity next time."
The demon said this angrily and disappeared from the spot in an instant.
"Are you okay?"
The man in black turned around and said to Lin Yixuan.
"I'm fine!" Lin Yixuan replied.
At this time, Li Ao and Wu Chen hurried to Lin Yixuan's side.
The man in black looked at the three people and said.
"Let's go, let's get out of here first~ This is not the place to talk."
After the man in black finished speaking, he flashed a few times and disappeared to a far place.
The three of them looked at each other, nodded, and followed.
The man in black stopped at a bamboo forest, and the three others also came here.
The man in black said loudly.
"it's me."
I saw the bamboo forest in front of me began to shake, then shifted continuously, and finally a passage appeared.
"Let's go~"
The man in black said as he walked in first. The three hurriedly followed.
After turning several corners, the man in black walked into a light curtain, and the three hurriedly followed.
Passing through the light curtain, what came into view were pavilions, towers, small bridges and flowing water, just like a fairyland. The man in black had come to the pavilion and was standing there. There were two people sitting in the pavilion chatting.
Seeing the three people coming, the middle-aged man spoke.
"Let me introduce myself. I am from the human race, my surname is Li, my courtesy name is Wenxuan, and I am in the late Nascent Soul stage. The guy next to me is from the blood race, his surname is Shi, his courtesy name is Potian, and he is also in the late Nascent Soul stage. As for the person who came to save you just now, he is also from the human race, his surname is Dongfang, his courtesy name is Batian, and he is in the early Nascent Soul stage."
(A member of the vampire race? Aren’t humans going to go to war with the vampire race? What’s going on?)
"My last name is Lin, my given name is Yixuan, and I'm in the middle stage of the Golden Core. This person's last name is Li, and his given name is Ao, and he's in the early stage of the Golden Core. This one..."
Lin Yixuan was choking a little bit when he was talking.
(It seems that I only know the monk’s name is Wuchen, but I don’t know his lay name.)
"Amitabha, my Buddhist name is Wuchen, I am in the middle stage of the Golden Elixir, and I come from the 'Canaan Temple'. You can just call me Wuchen!"
Wu Chen added.
"Such a young man has reached the Jindan stage. He is indeed a young genius. It's just a pity."
Li Wenxuan shook his head and said.
"I don't know where this place is?"
Lin Yixuan asked.
"Batian, I'll leave these three people to you. Explain our rules to them."
The middle-aged man didn't want to pay any attention to Lin Yixuan at all. After he finished speaking to the man in black behind him, he waved his hand!
The man in black came up to the three of them in an instant and said.
"Come with me~ All your doubts will be answered for you one by one."
After the man in black finished speaking, he walked towards the bamboo house not far away, and the three immediately followed.
Pushing open the bamboo door, there was already an old man sitting at the table in the room.
"I'm back. These people must be the new people this time. It's okay. They will soon become our own."
The old man spoke.
The man in black sat down and took off his hat. Most of his face was burned. Dongfang Batian poured a sip of tea, drank it, and then said to the three people.
"Everyone, please take a seat. This is Elder Mo, who is in the late Jindan stage and a formation master. The formation outside was created by him."
The three of them sat down quickly. Lin Yixuan asked
"Excuse me, Senior Dongfang, what exactly is this place? Why do those people say that there is no way out of here? And aren't the human race and the blood race going to go to war? Why do I see that the two of them seem to be getting along so well?"
“This place is the famous ‘Netherworld Abyss’. Those humans, blood races, or demon races you see are all here to look for opportunities, or their lifespans are almost over and they think that since they are going to die anyway, they might as well give it a try. Many people come here with this idea in mind, and most of them stay here! You can’t get out of here because there is no way out. As for the current relationship between humans and blood races, I don’t know, but in this ghost place, only by uniting can we have a chance of survival.” Dongfang Batian explained.
Upon hearing that they had actually arrived at the 'Netherworld Abyss', Lin Yixuan was shocked all over, and then fell silent.
(Only if we unite can we have a chance of survival? Could it be related to the skeletons we saw when we got here?)
"May I ask, Senior Dongfang, is the glimmer of hope you mentioned related to those skeletons outside?"
Wu Chen asked.
Dongfang Batian nodded and said.
"It's really easier to talk to smart people. Every night, those dry bones will come alive and look for nearby living things to kill. If you still want to fight at this time, you will definitely die! The man you met before was a werewolf from the demon clan, named Heiyan. The town is now divided into two territories, one for our human clan and the blood clan, and the other for the demon clan and the shadow clan. The people with the highest cultivation here are Li Wenxuan from our human clan, Shi Potian from the blood clan, and Guisha from the demon clan. They are all in the late Nascent Soul stage, and the guy from the Shadow clan is only in the middle Nascent Soul stage!"
Dongfang Batian paused here and continued.
"If you three have any other questions, feel free to ask. After all, we will need your cooperation in the days ahead so that we can survive better."
"I don't really have anything to ask, it's just..."
Wu Chen looked at Lin Yixuan.
"I understand, but there is something we need to discuss." Lin Yixuan said.
"Well, it's okay. It's still early and there's still some time before those monsters revive. Feel free to discuss it!"
Dongfang Batian said.
"If we don't want to, can we leave?"
Lin Yixuan asked.
"Of course it's up to you, but I have to remind you that you are only at the Golden Core stage. Wandering around in this 'Netherworld Abyss' is tantamount to seeking your own death. If you are not willing to contribute, please do as you please!"
Dongfang Batian's tone became much heavier when he spoke the last few words.
