Chapter 395 The Desire to Remove the Chains
How should I help?
Li Changshou thought of a few ways. Take the “complete cycle” story that was given to Goddess Nuwa as an example. If the enthusiastic protagonist jumped out and carried the incarnations of decadence and grief while yelling “I care about you”… Perhaps… No, there was no need to doubt it. The outcome would definitely be that fellow being assimilated by the Lady of Earth’s incarnation of Grief!
This sorrowful personality also had the Dao Realm of the Lady of Earth. He did not know the exact strength of the battle, and judging from her situation, she could not fight with others. Moreover, she would not resist even if she was killed…
However, her Dao Realm and the Dao runes that she emitted were definitely at the level of a mighty figure!
Under the support of such a Dao realm, the incarnation of grief could cause the living beings to resonate with extreme sorrow at all times. It was comparable to a powerful mystical ability that directly attacked the mind!
The most troublesome thing was that no one could be sure what kind of effect it would have on the Six Paths of Reincarnation and the Lady of Earth…
Li Changshou did not gain nothing from this contact. The persona of the Lady of Earth was filled with negative emotions, despair, and loyalty. However, it was not completely hopeless. Li Changshou had actually obtained a lot of useful information from the conversation just now… Firstly, she hoped that someone could convince her to be free from endless sorrow. Secondly, she could communicate with living beings and was a little talkative.
Thirdly, the Seven Emotions incarnation was clearly affected by the Lady of Earth’s personality. It was not purely a gathering of sorrow. Facing Grief was actually facing the Lady of Earth. It was just a version of Lady of Earth that had separated the single emotion of sadness. Should I try bragging?
Li Changshou immediately dispelled that thought without thinking
Would the Heavenly Dao and Saints really not destroy the “universal connection and eternal development” in the Primordial World?
This ‘Lady of Earth’s Grief’… Yes, I should call it ‘Little Grief’.
He wanted to give Little Grief hope and let her escape from the abyss of despair. Perhaps, he would have to rely on his enthusiasm to find a group of passionate emotions to fill her empty and collapsed heart. He suddenly heard something.
“Changgeng, why don’t we forget it?” The Great Daoist Master, who had been thinking for a while, took the initiative to say, “Don’t force yourself.”
They were currently at the bottom of the eighteenth level of hell, outside the forty-nine array formations. King Chujiang and King Qinguang, who were wiping their tears at the side, immediately felt even sadder when they heard that. They hurriedly rushed over and cried.
He had been affected by Xiao Ai previously and had yet to recover.
“Great Daoist Master! Water God! You can’t let this
go!”
“Ancestor has done so much for living beings, and now she’s being tortured. Why doesn’t anyone help her…
Ah, Ancestor, you’re really too pitiful! I don’t want to continue living like this!” The Great Daoist Master could not take it when he saw the two extremely dignified Yama Lords from the Netherworld beating their chests and stamping their feet.
“Senior Brother, let’s try again.”
Li Changshou looked up and the white robe on his body swayed gently.
“I want to know what kind of state the Lady of Earth is in now. Only then can I determine if I can help…”
The Great Daoist Master said seriously, “Alright, let’s join forces and enter the Six Paths of Reincarnation.”
“Thank you, Senior Brother!”
Li Changshou bowed with a Dao salute. The Great Daoist Master smiled and waved his hand. His eyes were clear.
King Chujiang and King Qinguang were overjoyed when they heard that. They hurriedly wiped their tears and suppressed their emotions. They bowed deeply.
“Please lead the way,” Li Changshou said.
“Please explain the situation in the Six Paths of Reincarnation to us in detail.”
“Water God, don’t worry. We will definitely tell you everything we know. Only three or four living beings know about this in the Netherworld. In the Six Paths of Reincarnation, we can see our ancestors at any time, but we can’t really come into contact with them. We can only come into contact with the incarnation of their evil thoughts…”
Li Changshou analyzed word by word as he listened to King Qinguang explain softly. He also deduced if the other party was hiding anything. Basically, it was similar to what he had heard from the Saint, Goddess Nuwa. At that moment, the Lady of Earth was trying her best to suppress the Seven Emotions incarnations to prevent it from going berserk.
Little Grief was the incarnation of the Seven Emotions that was first born. Although it had a powerful Dao realm, it was so sad that it did not want to move because of its “personality”. Hence, the Lady of Earth did not have to worry and did not have to divert her attention to suppress it. She directly sent out the Reincarnation Disc and suppressed it under the eighteen levels of hell.
It was quite magical. Not long after, they left the eighteen levels of hell and rushed to the side of the Six Paths of Reincarnation. They arrived at the place where Li Changshou had previously stepped. King Chujiang ordered the Netherworld servants to guard there. Without the orders of the Yama Lords, no one was allowed to approach.
Then, King Qinguang and King Chujiang bowed and shouted, “Ancestor, it’s us! Two fellow Daoists from Ren School have come to visit!”
Four beams of light shot over and enveloped Li Changshou, the Great Daoist Master, and the two Yama Lords at the same time.
The Great Daoist Master suddenly took a step back and pulled Li Changshou. Under the stunned gazes of the two Yama Lords, he was not taken away by the pillar of light.
“Senior Brother, what’s wrong?” Li Changshou was also confused. He had just mentally prepared himself to take the risk and enter the Six Paths of Reincarnation! “Let’s see if we can use the Taiji Painting to enter,”
the Great Daoist Master replied with a smile. Yin and Yang Qi revolved in his palm. In front of the two of them, the turbid and cold aura of the Netherworld kept spinning. A deep vortex appeared out of thin air, and there was a faint golden light shining inside. The Great Daoist Master and Li Changshou walked forward together. At that moment, they no longer had any doubts and entered at the same time.
The Great Daoist Master deliberately used that to test him. He wanted to confirm if he could enter the Small World in the Six Paths of Reincarnation casually with the Connate Cardinal treasure, the Taiji Painting The result was surprisingly reassuring. The painting’s reputation remained. The surrounding streams of light shone.
The two of them accidentally entered a fog. Their immortal senses could not even reach a thousand feet. Their visibility was even more pitiful. Li Changshou lost contact with his paper effigies and could not help but feel worried…
The Great Daoist Master walked closer to Li Changshou and raised his hand to support Li Changshou’s arm. Black and white auras seeped out from his body and completely enveloped the two of them.
The Great Daoist Master said, “The five elements here are missing, and Yin and Yang are not in order. However, there is a very strong power of the mind left behind.”
“Yes.” Li Changshou thanked him in his heart and walked forward with the Great Daoist Master.
Specks of light suddenly appeared in the fog, as if they were guiding them forward. They condensed into images that flashed continuously in the fog. It seemed to be a memory of someone who had landed there.
Li Changshou’s eyes flickered as he looked at the images. He carefully sensed them and confirmed that they were not harmful and did not contain any information that he could not bear. Then, he sensed the contents of the images. This is… the Lady of Earth’s memories!
The first image was a reflection of a figure on the water surface. The Lady of Earth was using the appearance of an Ancestral Magus-a human body with a snake tail and numerous hands that were holding snakes. She was curiously sizing up her own body in the water.
Interestingly, in the corner of the water’s reflection, he could see a Phoenix Divine Bird spreading its wings and sliding across the sky. Behind it, there were a few strange-looking Magi who kept jumping up and chasing… Ah, the warm and relaxed hunting routine of the Magi in ancient times.
The second image was still a reflection of the water surface. At that moment, the Lady of Earth had transformed into a Connate Dao Body—the body of a human.
Her figure was slender and graceful, and she exuded an indescribable natural beauty. She was dressed in an earthen-yellow long dress, and she was quietly combing her long hair beside the river. Her smooth feet were in the cool river water, and she was humming a relaxed ballad.
The next scene was the same. They were all scenes of the Lady of Earth beside the water. All the way until the thirteenth painting, the image was of a surging sea of blood. Countless remnant souls circled above the sea of blood and whimpered. They were directly engulfed by the waves of blood! Among the remnant souls, there were Magi, humans, and the Myriad Spirit Race, which were also demons.
Patriarch Nether River!
There seemed to be an angry shout in Li Changshou’s heart. Then, the image exploded… When the images were pieced together again, Li Changshou was stunned. He saw a Taiji Painting and a familiar figure standing on the Taiji Painting. He saw the old Daoist priest’s corpse, which was half gone… Then, the young Daoist priest turned around from the Taiji Painting. He held the Cosmic Ruler above his head and whispered, “Senior, Teacher instructed me to tell you something.”
The scene stopped. The surrounding fog dissipated. Li Changshou and the Great Daoist Master walked to a light yellow sand dune. Behind them was a blurry fog, and in front of them was an endless desert.
“Senior Brother?” Li Changshou looked at the Great Daoist Master beside him.
“Did you attack that matter back then?”
“Ha…”
Great Daoist Master Xuan Du yawned and waved his hand.
“It’s not worth mentioning. It’s just a small merit. Teacher asked me to help. At that time, the Lady of Earth did not have any treasures. She could only rely on the mystical abilities of the Magi to fight with the Patriarch of the Nether River. The Patriarch of the Nether River relied on the benefits of the Blood Sea and claimed that the Nether River would not die if the Blood Sea did not cease. He also had the protection of the twelfth-grade Negative Karma Fire Red Lotus, the Primordial Massacre Sword, and the Avicinaraka Sword. He also had the help of the Asura Clan…
At that time, Patriarch Nether River did have the ability to resist the Heavenly Fate. Therefore, Teacher has ordered me to come and borrow the treasures of Ren School to suppress the Negative Karma Fire Red Lotus and the two swords, so that the Heavenly Dao can successfully send down the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder and directly strike that old fellow…”
Li Changshou asked again, “Senior Brother, what did you tell the Lady of Earth back then?”
Great Daoist Master Xuan Du said, “Follow your heart and you will be satisfied. There’s no need to worry about your future.”
Li Changshou carefully thought about it for a while. His face turned sullen at first. Then, he supported his forehead with his hand, put his hands in his sleeves, and slowly squatted down.
“What happened?”
Great Daoist Master Xuan Du said in surprise, “Could it be that he was suddenly touched by the Lady of Earth?”
Li Changshou sighed softly and stood up, sweeping away the gloom in his heart. There were thousands of schemes and schemes, but he had still been arranged by the Saint! Everything was arranged when he was told to go!
The Saint had asked him to wait in the Honglin Kingdom because he had predicted that he would not ignore Youqin Xuanya’s father! She also knew that he did not want to get involved in karma. He must only protect the old King’s soul! Originally, Li Changshou had thought that the Saint’s consideration back then was only limited to the Shang Dynasty…
From the looks of it, the bigger scheme was still in the Netherworld!
Li Changshou sent the old King to the Netherworld. The moment the door to the eighteenth level of hell opened, the Grand Pure Dao aura on his body was sensed by the Lady of Earth. She asked for help and pulled him there step by step! The beginning of all of this came from the promise that the Grand Pure One had made to the Lady of Earth in ancient times…
“Don’t worry and follow your own thoughts. The Grand Pure One Sect will help you settle the rest.”
What is a Saint’s scheme?
He was on a completely different level from Li Changshou, a “Primordial Immortal”! Great Daoist Master Xuan Du chuckled.
“Get used to it.”
Habits…
The Great Daoist Master continued, “It’s difficult to use your immortal senses to investigate this place. I have already deduced the location of the two Yan Lords. Let’s rush over first.”
“Yes.” Li Changshou agreed. Great Daoist Master Xuan Du rode a cloud and flew towards the depths of the sand sea. The range of Li Changshou’s immortal senses was suppressed by 90%. There was also very little spiritual energy that Li Changshou’s essence soul could mobilize.
Essence Soul Dao cultivators could only unleash 30% of their strength there.
Li Changshou asked the Pagoda Master, who replied calmly, “It’s completely fine…” From this perspective, the atmosphere of the Primordial World’s heavy Dharma treasures and light mystical abilities was reasonable. The two of them flew for a while. The originally dim sky was torn apart like a curtain.
It was like a star without the cover of the atmosphere. There was a deep darkness above his head, dotted with endless stars. Below his feet was a golden sea of sand, and the boundary extended to an unknown place. A colorful ‘galaxy’ hung in the middle of the sky and flowed through the sea of stars. Li Changshou was enlightened…
That was the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
“Senior Brother, the scenery here is not bad.”
“This should be the manifestation of the Lady of Earth’s Heart Platform. The so-called Heart Platform is also the Sea of Spiritual Sense,” the Great Daoist Master said warmly.
“The Lady of Earth’s body has transformed into the Six Paths of Reincarnation. This is her last resting place.”
Li Changshou suddenly understood. If the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disc was Goddess Houtu’s body and this place was her heart platform, that would explain why this place was completely isolated from the outside world and did not have any spiritual energy exchange with the Primordial World…
Just as he was thinking about that, a magma lake suddenly appeared in front of him. It became a place filled with flames.
The Great Daoist Master suddenly frowned and said, “This is more troublesome than the previous one.” Li Changshou’s heart tightened.
“Evil or lust?” As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of wind behind him. Li Changshou turned around and was speechless. Dozens of stars fell from the night sky and turned into huge fireballs that smashed towards the Great Daoist Master and him!
“Let’s go.”
The Great Daoist Master shouted softly. He grabbed Li Changshou’s arm with his left hand and kept flashing forward. Every time his figure flashed, he would leave hundreds of kilometers between them!
There was no danger. The two of them flew out of the range of the “explosion”. The small stars ploughed the magma land within a radius of thousands of kilometers.
The scene was spectacular. Li Changshou felt his scalp tingle.
Another stone golem beast crawled out of the magma lake. The Great Daoist Master shook his head helplessly. He swept his sleeve and the stone golem beast shattered.
“It’s just a small trick.”
The Taiji Painting in the Great Daoist Master’s palm rotated slightly. He grabbed Li Changshou and flashed again. This time, they crossed an unknown distance and appeared in a dilapidated palace. The originally lively scene in the hall looked like someone had pressed the pause button… King Chujiang stood by the wooden barrel in the corner with tears in his eyes. He wrapped a colorful head scarf around his ferocious head. He held two bright flowers in his hand. He was clearly a rough and dignified Magi, but at that moment, he was wearing blush. He pulled the petals and scattered them into the wooden barrel…
At that moment, King Chu Jiang’s eyes were filled with despair, as if he was saying, “It’s over, it’s over.” However, his hands did not stop moving. Then, he looked at King Qinguang… The leader of the Ten Halls’ Yama Lords, the leader of the Netherworld, was lying on sharp black spikes. There was a huge stone slab on his body. On top of the stone slab was a pair of delicate jade feet. Her skin was fair and translucent, but her nails were stained with blood. If the “Little Grief”
of the Lady of Earth’s Seven Emotions incarnation that he had seen previously was a 21-year-old woman in her most beautiful years, the person he saw now was like a 16-year-old girl. She had long, light-red hair, dark-red eyes, and was wearing a short skirt and blouse. It was not the same as the word ‘conservative’. However, she did not look charming or gentle. She exuded a piercing aura from head to toe…
Ferocious.
There was a longevity lock hanging on her neck. The longevity lock was flickering gently. Before he came, King Qinguang had said that his evil thoughts and desires were suppressed by Goddess Houtu’s Dharma artifact. Clearly, the Dharma artifact was referring to the longevity lock.
“Hey, you.”
The young girl put down the hammer in her hand, tilted her head, and raised her chin at the Great Daoist Master.
“Come and lie on me.”
The Great Daoist Master was speechless. He cupped his hands and said, “Disciple of Ren School…”
“Are you unwilling?”
The young girl said coldly. She tapped her bare feet and disappeared!
The Great Daoist Master frowned and waved his long sleeve. The Taiji Painting appeared behind him and rotated gently. With a muffled groan, the beautiful figure fell out from behind Li Changshou. A shiny sword was aimed at Li Changshou’s neck. The tip of the sword was only three inches away! Li Changshou was rendered speechless. So fierce?
He did not say a word. Just because he looked like he was easy to bully, he was targeted?! Fortunately, he had brought the Great Daoist Master here! Otherwise, Li Changshou really did not know how many holes the Lady of Earth would pierce in his heart!
The Yin-Yang Qi on the Taiji Painting spiraled and trapped the young girl, “sucking”
her onto the Taiji Painting The Great Daoist Master and Li Changshou turned around and smiled. King Qinguang had already pushed away the stone slabs on his body. King Chujiang also took off his headscarf and rushed over.
“Great Daoist Master, please show mercy! The Goddess has suppressed most of her evil thoughts. She is only teasing others now. She will not really hurt anyone.”) Li Changshou lowered his head and looked at the sword. He realized that the sword did not seem to be made of metal. At that moment, it had already deformed and bent on the ground. It was abnormally soft…
The Great Daoist Master nodded but did not retract his Yin and Yang Qi.
Li Changshou said, “How can we see the Goddess’ main body?”
“This…”
Qin Guangwang frowned.
” I need your approval.”
“Beg me.”
The young girl, who was frozen by the Taiji Painting, sneered and calmly turned to the side.
“I am the Lady of Earth and the Lady of Earth is me. No matter how much evil I do, no one will dare to get rid of me. Is this what you disciples of the Dao Sect mean by killing, exterminating, and killing demons? Tsk, trash.”
“Ancestor!”
King Qinguang and King Chujiang hurriedly moved forward and tried to persuade her. Li Changshou stared at the longevity lock on the young girl’s neck for a while and pondered. Just as Li Changshou had said, the Lady of Earth was also affecting the Seven Emotions incarnation, especially the evil young girl. At that moment, she was still being suppressed by the Lady of Earth’s Dharma artifact. Soon, the young girl cursed impatiently and said, “Alright, alright. How disgusting! Follow me!”
The Great Daoist Master released the young girl’s restraint and looked at Li Changshou. Both of them saw the word ‘careful’. King Qinguang and King Chujiang heaved a sigh of relief and followed behind the young girl. They walked out of the dilapidated hall and flew into the distance.
After flying for a while, a huge array appeared in front of them.
The array enveloped an area of about five kilometers. There was a huge Empress Earth statue inside. There were two treasure halls in front of the statue, emitting endless solemnity. The young girl hummed a faint tune and led them to the front of the array.
“Go in. I can’t open this place.”
The Great Daoist Master raised his hand and pointed. The Taiji Painting appeared and bound the young girl again. At the same time, it easily melted an opening in the array formation in front of him.
The Great Daoist Master made an inviting gesture. The young girl, Evil, seemed to be extremely angry. She gritted her teeth and cursed a few times. However, she turned her head to the side and looked disdainfully.
King Qinguang and King Chujiang had to think for a while before they could convince the young girl to lead the way.. Hence, a group of five figures carefully entered the array formation and flew towards the hall. However, in front of the hall, Li Changshou suddenly raised his hand and made a gesture to stop. He looked at the young girl in front of him, who was restrained by the Yin and Yang Qi. He smiled bitterly and said, “Goddess, even if your evil thoughts are suppressed, you shouldn’t have obvious anger, depression, and compromise, right? The Seven Emotions each have their own incarnations and have gone to their own extremes. Compared to sorrow, your evil seems to be not pure.”
The young girl walking in front turned around, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared. Her face became cold and lonely, but she revealed a sinister smile.
“Really? But it’s still too late for you to know.”
The Great Daoist Master seemed to have suddenly seen something. He opened his right hand and a stream of light flew out from the hall and stopped in the Great Daoist Master’s palm. It was a longevity lock. It was the same design as the one on the young girl’s neck. The difference was that the longevity lock had been opened, and it was no longer shining. King Chujiang and King Qinguang instantly trembled, and their faces turned extremely pale.
“Oh no!”
“Quick! Both of you, leave quickly!”
Before they could finish their sentence, the entire hall was filled with a decadent sound. Pink smoke drifted from everywhere. That slightly dissatisfied snort made the listeners’ bones turn soft and their blood vessels expand. The Great Daoist Master frowned, but Li Changshou nodded calmly. There was nothing unusual.
