Chapter 273 Half-Step Opening Treasure
The eighteen layers of hell in the underworld of Xuanhuang Realm correspond to the pagoda that Shen Yuan signed a contract with ten thousand years ago, but the Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda at this moment is different from the one before ten thousand years ago.
Compared with the magnificent pagoda that suppressed the whole world ten thousand years ago, the Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda at this moment has experienced the ten thousand years of erosion by the underworld land and the tide of spiritual energy, and has lost its original brilliant light.
The magnificent tower body has become much dimmer, and the human scrolls and gods and Buddhas depicted on it have become mottled and unclear. Even the heavy Xuanhuang Qi flowing on the pagoda has dissipated for the most part, and it no longer has the power to easily suppress the whole world before.
But with the appearance of such a Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda, the rules of the underworld that were originally forcibly controlled by the Karma Mirror were instantly suppressed, and the distorted order seemed to be smoothed out by an invisible big hand.
The balance that was tilted towards King Qin Guang stopped at this moment.
"How is it possible!"
The smile on King Qin Guang's face that everything was under control had disappeared, and his face showed an extremely surprised look.
In the Xuanhuang Realm, all the rules of the underworld are separated from the underworld, and the rules of the underworld are the source of the underworld in the Xuanhuang Realm.
The reincarnation of the underworld comes from the projection of the six reincarnations, the gods of the underworld come from the Lord of Mount Tai, and even the ten great underworld commanders sitting in Fengdu also imitate the ten kings of hell to manage the underworld. This is common sense known to almost all ghosts and gods.
And today, this common sense was ruthlessly broken by the pagoda in front of him.
The eighteen layers of hell in the underworld of the Xuanhuang Realm are not projections of the underworld. Although they are also eighteen layers of hell, they have nothing to do with the underworld. They are completely independent of the underworld.
The Karma Mirror erodes the rules of the underworld with the status of the treasure of the underworld, and it cannot affect this pagoda that evolves the eighteen layers of hell.
King Qin Guang even vaguely felt that the essence of this seemingly old and dim pagoda in front of him seemed to be no less than the Karma Mirror in his hand.
Even because the Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda is one of the foundations of the underworld, being in the underworld, the status alone is enough to suppress or even compete with the Karma Mirror.
King Qin Guang could no longer remain calm at this moment, and his majestic face showed an unconcealable anger.
"The idiot Riyoushen! Such important information was never told to me!"
"How many secrets are there in this underworld that I don't know?"
In the imperial chariot.
As the eighteen layers of hell turned upside down, the pagoda that almost penetrated the entire underworld rose above the earth, and Shen Yuan could not remain calm.
Even though he had already guessed the existence of the Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda in his heart, when he witnessed this treasure bred by the Xuanhuang Realm again, Shen Yuan still couldn't help being shocked.
As early as when he first met Niutou in Beimang Mountain and received Niutou's invitation to quell the turmoil in the underworld, Shen Yuan relied on the star number magic to feel a strong cause and effect connection.
At that time, Shen Yuan had a vague feeling that if he refused Niu Tou's invitation, something would happen that he would regret.
After agreeing to Niu Tou's trip to the underworld, Shen Yuan began to carefully think about where this causal connection came from.
However, the causal connection was obscured by the power of a higher level. The star number magic power could only determine that there was a causal connection, but could not really trace the source, which made Shen Yuan very distressed.
Until Shen Yuan was in seclusion in Beimang Mountain for a few days, he deduced information from all sides and thought of the ten thousand years of time travel he had just experienced.
In that ten thousand years of time travel, Shen Yuan's biggest move was to sign a ten thousand years contract with Xuanhuang Linglong Tower.
Ten thousand years have come, and Xuanhuang Linglong Tower is no longer in the Zhenlong small world. Shen Yuan tried to deduce the existence of Xuanhuang Linglong Tower.
With Shen Yuan's deduction, the inexplicable causal connection finally got a response.
So far, Shen Yuan has completely confirmed that the causal connection between himself and the underworld comes from the Xuanhuang Linglong Tower that has a ten thousand years of contract with him.
When Shen Yuan left a backup plan in Beimang Mountain, Gong Buyu asked Shen Yuan what he was going to do.
At that time, Shen Yuan answered "to fulfill a promise", which refers to the promise between him and Niu Tou, and also to the promise with the spirit of Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda that spanned ten thousand years.
After arriving in Fengdu City, Shen Yuan vaguely felt the breath of Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda, but could not determine where this pagoda was.
It was not until he killed the Wheel King and obtained the recognition of the ghosts and gods of the underworld to completely control the entire Fengdu City that Shen Yuan realized the eighteen layers of hell under the earth.
The eighteen layers of hell mentioned by the Yin generals do not refer to the sinful land in the underworld that is famous in all realms, but the core of the underworld that is based on the Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda and integrated into the underworld system to form its own world.
Looking at the Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda in front of him, Shen Yuan's eyes were full of emotion.
As a witness to the glory of the Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda, Shen Yuan was not disappointed with the pagoda in front of him.
Under the cover of Fengdu's will, Shen Yuan could clearly see the essence of Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda. It seemed that the precious light was fading and the Xuanhuang aura was dissipating, but Shen Yuan could feel a breath of destruction and then reconstruction from it.
On each level of the pagoda, the gods and Buddhas at the top were mottled and decayed, and the human history in the middle was withered and old. At the bottom of these decaying traces, there were more scrolls of hell.
These scrolls of hell were imprinted with the image of the eighteen layers of hell. Hundreds of millions of evil spirits suffered in the eighteen layers of hell. The breath of terror and sin seemed to make people feel the horrible scene of hell.
The gods and Buddhas of heaven, the sentient beings of the human world, and the hell of the ghost world, the three seem to form a subtle picture scroll that seems to encompass all the worlds, allowing the Xuanhuang Linglong Tower to complete the crucial transformation.
Feeling the rhythm of it, Shen Yuan's pupils trembled and whispered:
"Ten thousand years ago, the Xuanhuang Linglong Tower was valued by the great immortal Minghao because it had the potential to transform into a half-step world-opening treasure.
The great immortal Minghao is a disciple of the East Pole Qinghua Palace and Taiyi Jiuku Tianzun, and is also the grandson of the Three Pure Ones. Although he is a great immortal, his status is far more respected than the Ten Palaces of Hell.
The fact that the great immortal Minghao values it is enough to prove the extraordinaryness of the Xuanhuang Linglong Tower."
"The ten thousand years of spiritual energy depletion is fatal to any immortal weapon. The Zhulong Immortal Sword, which is also an immortal weapon, is almost The tower was destroyed by the exhaustion period.
Only the Xuanhuang Linglong Tower suppressed the underworld, consuming a huge amount of Xuanhuang Qi to connect the earth veins to establish the underworld, and used the space in the tower to divide the eighteen layers of hell to imprison many evil spirits.
The Xuanhuang Linglong Tower is almost deeply bound to the entire underworld. With the help of the underworld, it not only resisted most of the impact of the spiritual energy exhaustion period, but also broke and then established to complete the evolution of the three phases of gods, ghosts and humans, completing a crucial transformation.
At this moment, the Xuanhuang Linglong Tower has the status of a half-step world-opening treasure! "
When Shen Yuan thought of this, it was difficult to keep his face calm.
Having the status of a half-step world-opening treasure is almost the same as a real world-opening treasure.
The status has never fallen, and the consumed Xuanhuang Qi and the pagoda spirit can be easily restored by waiting for the revival of the Xuanhuang world.
Just having the potential of a half-step world-opening treasure is enough to attract the disciples of Tianzun to fight for it in the lower world, let alone a genuine half-step world-opening treasure?
Such a treasure will inevitably attract many golden immortals to fight for it, and even some celestial masters and emperors will secretly make a move.
After all, not every celestial master and emperor has a real world-opening treasure.
Especially the emperors of the divine way, most of the world-opening treasures they have rely on the divine way rules to exert their power.
The Xuanhuang Linglong Tower has evolved from an immortal weapon and has the potential to become a real world-opening treasure, which is enough to make the emperor of the divine way go down.
As for the so-called treasures of the underworld, there are very few that can really reach the level of half-step world-opening treasures. For example, the karma mirror can only exert the power of half-step world-opening treasures by relying on the divine way rules of the underworld.
The karma mirror that has broken away from the divine way rules of the underworld needs to burn the soul of the king of hell to use the power of questioning and convicting, which is enough to show the limitations of such divine way treasures.
Shen Yuan held the Xuanhuang Linglong Tower in his right hand, and the rules of the underworld guarded around this pagoda.
For the Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda, humans, ghosts and gods are its origins, and the so-called rules of the netherworld are just the derivatives of the outside world.
"Suppress!"
A soft command came from Shen Yuan's mouth, and the magnificent pagoda exuded a dark glow, suppressing the karma mirror that reflected all living beings above the sky.
Theoretically speaking, all living beings in the world have karma, even the true Buddha who has gone through 81 difficulties and made a golden body with merits will also be entangled by karma.
Karma and merits are not unified. There is no such thing as having great merits to wipe out the influence of karma. Unless the karma fire burns and consumes, karma will only increase and not decrease.
It is precisely because of this that the karma mirror can reflect all living beings and restrain all living things.
But there is only one thing that the karma mirror cannot restrain, that is, even if it is an instrument with great merits.
The Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda is not a living being. It has evolved into the eighteen layers of hell to suppress the netherworld for ten thousand years, washing away the sins of countless evil ghosts and dead souls, and the accumulated merits are enough to turn into a merit treasure.
This kind of meritorious treasure is not within the range of the Karma Mirror, and the Karma Mirror cannot trigger the Karma Fire to convict it.
On the contrary, the Xuanhuang Linglong Tower has the advantage of the rules of the underworld. Its original status is a half-step world-opening treasure. Even if its spiritual essence is damaged, it can still crush the Karma Mirror that relies on burning the soul of the Lord of Hell to restore its power.
The roar of the creation of the world exploded on the entire land of Taizhou, and the Karma Mirror that covered the sky and the sun and reflected all living things was shattered under this blow.
The figure of the white-clothed emperor that was about to solidify in the Karma Mirror dissipated, and the nameless Karma Fire covering the entire Luoshan County was extinguished.
"Crack!"
In the hand of King Qin Guang, a clearly visible crack appeared on the black and white Karma Mirror.
The Karma Mirror on the sky was broken, directly injuring the main body of the Karma Mirror.
"Damn it!!!"
King Qin Guang held the Karma Mirror and his eyes were bloodshot.
If the Karma Mirror is in the underworld, its divine authority is related to the overall situation of the underworld. Even if it is restrained, it can still suppress the Xuanhuang Linglong Tower with the help of the underworld.
But now, because the Karma Mirror came across the boundary and was suppressed by the Xuanhuang Realm, it also lost the home advantage of the underworld in front of the Xuanhuang Linglong Tower. Finally, it was naturally restrained by the Merit Treasure. Under the influence of various conditions, the origin was directly damaged.
In Fengdu City, without the suppression of the nameless karma fire, powerful ghosts and gods began to revive.
None of these ghosts and gods can be compared with King Qin Guang, even the strongest bull head is inferior to King Qin Guang.
But so many ghosts and gods are enough to influence the rules of the underworld. When they join forces, King Qin Guang, who only has ghost cultivation left, can't compete with them at all.
The dark sky is broken, and the earth collapses in the tremor. After experiencing the burning of the nameless karma fire, even the ghosts and gods who were afraid of King Qin Guang's name before no longer have any reservations.
King Qin Guang's figure standing on the sky was constantly pressed towards the earth.
The threats of countless ghosts and gods in the underworld and the suppression of the Xuanhuang Linglong Tower made him feel a suffocating pressure.
If it weren't for the damaged Karma Mirror in his hand still protecting him, the suppression of the Xuanhuang Linglong Tower alone would be enough to shake his soul.
King Qin Guang held the Karma Mirror in his hand, his expression uncertain.
If he chose to return to the underworld at this moment, under the protection of the Karma Mirror, the Emperor Fengdu could not stop him.
And after returning in time, the damaged source of the Karma Mirror can also be replenished in time, and it is not difficult to restore to its peak state.
But.
"Do I really have to escape back to the underworld in such a disgrace?"
King Qin Guang's eyes flashed with a tyrannical scarlet color.
He was unwilling!
His intuition clearly told him that the Emperor Fengdu in the Emperor's chariot was just an empty shell and did not have the strength to match the position of the emperor.
But after a head-on fight with the Emperor Fengdu, the emperor repeatedly used strange tricks without personally taking action, and easily cracked the layout he had planned for thousands of years.
Even now that he was forced into a desperate situation, the Emperor of Fengdu did not attack directly.
The only magical power of the Seven Arrows with Nailed Heads that he used was the method of curse killing, which did not explain the strength of the Emperor of Fengdu at all.
Being defeated by such an emperor, the unwillingness in King Qin Guang's heart almost overflowed.
"I don't believe that you really have the strength of an emperor!"
A hoarse roar came from King Qin Guang's mouth. He grabbed the last soul of King Biancheng and stuffed it into the Karma Mirror. The red light of guilt once again enveloped the world.
The soul of King Yan continued to burn, and the Karma Mirror once again manifested its origin to suppress the ghosts and gods of the underworld and the Xuanhuang Linglong Tower. The collision between the rules evolved to the extreme at this moment.
The entire underworld was shaken at this moment, the order was disordered and the rules collapsed. The cracks on the surface of the Karma Mirror, which was already at a disadvantage, gradually increased, and the origin gradually fell into an irreversible collapse.
Such a nearly self-destructive suppression temporarily suppressed everything in Fengdu City.
King Qin Guang no longer had any reservations. His body turned into a dark light and rushed towards the Emperor's chariot. His soul was burning at this moment.
"All the ten directions are destroyed!"
A great magical power appeared in King Qin Guang's hand. This was not the method of Tiangang, but the magical power passed down by the Heavenly Lord in the upper realm. It originally required the cultivation of the immortal realm to be used, but at this moment, it also had great power under the burning soul.
The ten directions of heaven and earth were completely annihilated. The scene of the collapse of time and space evolved into a great destructive power that engulfed everything. The phantom of Mount Tai manifested by the throne of Mount Tai collapsed in an instant.
The Emperor's chariot was completely exposed to the great magical power of the annihilation of all directions. Everything would be annihilated here. The ghosts and gods in the underworld in the distance looked furious and desperate.
Under this scene of destruction, a palm slowly stretched out from the Emperor's chariot, and time seemed to be slowed down to the extreme.
The white palm did not contain any mana fluctuations. Compared with the surrounding scene of the annihilation of time and space, it was so fragile that it seemed that the slightest space fluctuation was enough to tear it apart.
King Qin Guang showed a ferocious smile on his face, as if he had seen the scene after the destruction.
At this moment, the five fingers of the open palm slowly closed together, and a calm voice sounded from the imperial chariot.
"Nine breaths, surrender!"
The next moment, the vast amount of Xuanhuang Qi on the Xuanhuang Linglong Tower returned to the palm, and the slowly closed palm seemed to hold a heavy world.
Whether it was King Qin Guang or the great magical power of the Ten Directions Annihilation, they were all frozen in the Xuanhuang Qi, and then the five fingers that closed together slowly crushed it.
