Chapter 170 Despite extensive inquiries, no results were found!
After listening to Senior Brother Tongtian's words,
Jieyin and Zhunti immediately wilted.
This won't work! That won't work either!
then,
An extremely strange scene unfolded among the Heavenly Saints.
Inside the Jade Void Palace, the Primordial Celestial Venerable wore a somber expression.
He commanded the White Crane Boy:
"go!
Carrying my token, I went to the border between the underworld and the human world.
Check if any underworld messengers have come and gone.
If there is...!
"Please be polite and come in to ask me some questions."
Upon hearing this, the White Crane Boy, looking completely bewildered, accepted the order and went off to do so.
The result was that they spent several months squatting on the edge of life and death.
The ghostly figure that went in was nowhere to be seen coming out!
The underworld is now self-sufficient and operates on an internal cycle.
In addition, generous benefits,
The ghost messengers don't need to come out to collect souls for now!
The souls of the dead were all lined up, heading towards the underworld.
I was afraid that if I arrived too late, there wouldn't be any good spots left to mine!
Long-term stakeout,
The white crane boy has practically turned into a waiting-for-husband stone from squatting!
.......
Inside Biyou Palace,
Tongtian, on the other hand, takes a less conventional approach.
He sent out several of his clever disciples.
Such as the Golden Spirit Mother, Zhao Gongming, etc.
Instruct them:
"Change your forms and appearances, go to the various places in the primordial world where living beings gather, and blend in with them."
Go and find out.
Are there any unusual or recent rumors about the underworld?
Remember, keep a low profile!
then,
The immortals of the Jie Sect transformed into wandering sorcerers and storytellers.
Spending all day mingling in the mundane world,
They were all ears, eager to hear some gossip about the underworld.
What did I end up hearing?
"The underworld now has a clear system of rewards and punishments, making it a good place to go."
"I heard the eighteen levels of hell have been transformed into a blessed land!"
Such increasingly outrageous rumors,
Zhao Gongming frowned as he listened!
"What is all this nonsense! The underworld is where souls reincarnate!"
What kind of good place could it be?!
Who would want to die for no reason?!
These people never even think before they start bragging!
......
Inside the Eight Views Palace,
Lao Tzu's approach was more scientific!
He took out a primordial spiritual treasure called the "Mirror of Light Reversal".
Attempting to trace back the fragments of celestial secrets related to the underworld,
I want to see if there have been any abnormalities in the energy flow around the underworld over the past period of time.
The mirror didn't reflect the chaotic scene disturbed by the power of reincarnation.
Occasionally, a few images would flash by, showing the outer perimeter of the underworld shrouded in ghostly shadows, yet everything seemed normal.
In short, it's completely useless!
Lao Tzu looked at his own calm and expressionless face in the mirror.
For the first time, I feel a little... mentally exhausted.
He couldn't help but complain to himself:
"This teacher doesn't seem to know much about this subject!"
The Witch Clan is really good at stirring things up!
If only they hadn't looked down on them for being barbarians, they could have just recognized each other as relatives!
Now, who knows, I might even become a true saint!
But as soon as he thought of this, Lao Tzu quickly shook his head.
Cast all distracting thoughts to the winds.
I'm terrified that I might manipulate myself into betraying the will of Heaven!
......
Western Spirit Mountain
Jieyin and Zhunti went to extreme lengths.
Zhunti even personally went out, concealing his presence, and ran to the edge of the sea of blood.
I want to ask the Styx Ancestor for some information.
As a result, after witnessing the strength of the Witch Clan, the Styx Ancestor...
They completely retreated into the depths of the sea of blood, never even showing their faces.
Only a sinister divine thought emanated:
"Don't ask me about matters of the underworld!"
I know nothing about my ancestor.
You all must leave immediately! Don't get yourself into trouble!
These words infuriated Zhunti so much that he almost manifested his golden form to argue with him.
However, the River Styx is no ordinary place; the karma here is too heavy.
In the end, Zhunti didn't do anything to him.
After uttering a few curses, he continued on his way to gather information!
Over the course of several months,
The five Heavenly Saints used every possible method, whether legitimate or outrageous.
The result was that they gained nothing.
The underworld is like an airtight vault, rumored to contain hundreds of millions of dollars.
The people outside were frantic, but they just couldn't open it!
What exactly is going on inside?
Not a single piece of information could be leaked.
The five sages once again initiated a collective exchange of divine consciousness, a practice unique to sages of the Heavenly Dao.
The atmosphere was even more awkward than before.
Yuan Shi's face turned ashen:
"I have absolutely no clue! I don't want to say anything more!"
You guys continue!
Tongtian also looked impatient:
"All I've collected are rumors and gossip; it's a waste of time!"
Next!
Lao Tzu remained silent, but the clear energy around him was somewhat disordered.
Clearly, he hadn't completely rid himself of all distracting thoughts!
Jieyin and Zhunti were almost in tears:
"How am I supposed to explain this to the teacher?!"
We messed things up last time, and the Di Jun brothers got rescued!
Now they can't even get a simple piece of information!
Why!"
Finally, Lao Tzu sighed. As the eldest disciple,
We had no choice but to bite the bullet.
A divine thought filled with helplessness was transmitted back to Zixiao Palace:
"Teacher Rongbing: The underworld is heavily guarded, and reincarnation separates the inside from the outside."
The disciples...exerted their utmost efforts,
We are temporarily unable to obtain information about the inner workings of the underworld!
I hope the teacher will investigate this matter thoroughly!
Give me a few more days to continue the investigation!
The news reached Zixiao Palace.
The already cold atmosphere within the palace...
The temperature dropped several tens of degrees in an instant!
Hongjun Daozu sat on his cloud bed, expressionless.
But the aura entangled with the Heavenly Dao around him was churning violently!
He felt incredibly stifled in his role as the Dao Ancestor.
He had a bunch of saints under his command.
They couldn't even find out what the other party was doing!
"Heavenly Revelation... Calm Mind... Underworld...!"
He silently recited those names in his mind, his killing intent more intense than ever before.
But he also knew that he couldn't entirely blame his incompetent disciples.
After all, they had no way of finding out the specifics.
"Looks like we can only wait for the underworld to slip up on its own!"
Thinking of this,
Hongjun, with a serious expression, relayed a message to everyone:
"Please wait a little longer while we continue our investigation."
We must find out exactly what the underworld did!
The five men received the message and shook their heads helplessly.
Sighs echoed throughout the primordial wilderness!
Within the underworld,
Tianqi and the others had no idea that the Heavenly Saints outside had almost turned themselves into gossip collectors and ghost-hunting enthusiasts in their efforts to gather information!
Right now, they're busy optimizing "pig farming... uh!"
It is a "soul purification cycle plan".
Looking at the increasing spiritual energy reserves within the Chaos Pearl,
And those energetic people in the eighteenth level of hell,
The souls of the dead, yearning for a "bright future,"
Tianqi felt that the future of the underworld was bright.
Information gap
Sometimes it's just that funny yet deadly.
......
And so, time passed day by day.
The pressure emanating from Zixiao Palace almost made Jieyin and Zhunti's Dao hearts unstable.
The other three Qing families at least had substantial wealth.
It doesn't matter if the teacher blames us; we can just go our separate ways!
However, the West is impoverished, and if they fail to win the favor of the Dao Ancestor...
How can they continue to use the name of the Dao Ancestor after that?
Openly extraditing destined individuals to build the West?!
After waiting in vain for several more years at the boundary between Yin and Yang,
Zhunti looked at the Gates of Hell, where no one had ever emerged.
His bitter face was practically dripping with juice.
