Chapter 54 8 Cold Hell
Chapter 54 8 Cold Hell
The map of mountains, rivers, and land was finally fully unfolded, and Shen Yue's figure was submerged in gold along with the entire abyss.
Countless information flooded into Shen Yue's mind - from the ancient prehistoric times to today's Four Realms and Ten Continents.Shen Yue felt as if he was standing at the top of the world, and everything in the world was nothing but gravel and dust in his eyes.
Omniscient, omnipotent.
He had experienced this feeling for a short time, and at that time, it was a power lent to him by the Lord God.But now, this complete and flawless power will always be with him.
When the golden light gradually faded from the abyss, Shen Yue slowly opened his eyes again.Those red agate-like eyes had been plated with a circle of dark gold at some point, making them look very beautiful.
The only flaw is that there is an imperceptible gap left in the closed part of the golden circle for some reason.
The Lord God's originally expectant and joyful eyes suddenly became a little weird after seeing the gap in Shen Yue's eyes clearly.He murmured softly: "Obviously it has been completely integrated, why do you still have such a 'flaw'? What did you do...
Shen Yue ignored the phantom of the main god, there was no longer anxiety and anger in his eyes, nor even indifference and ignorance.Even if you try to distinguish them carefully, you can't see the slightest emotion from those extremely beautiful eyes.
He raised his hand, waved lightly, and the scene behind him turned to the next page like a scroll.
From the gloomy ghost world, to the snow-covered northern region, to the verdant world of mountains and forests... Shen Yue captures the traces of gaps in the void in the four realms and ten continents, and these irregular gaps are always fleeting , and irregularly.But now Shen Yue took a quick look, and soon knew the time and place of the next gap.
Raising his hand again, Shen Yue was already in the nameless mountains thousands of miles away.
It doesn't matter where it is here, Shen Yue has no interest in knowing irrelevant things, he just stands there and waits, and has already entered into it the first moment the void gap opened in front of him.
The space-time countercurrent is as fierce as usual, trying to leave irreparable scars on the intruder.
Once upon a time, Shen Yue was also seriously injured in this time-space reverse flow.But now that Shen Yue passed through this dark gap in the void, it was like flowing through a stream of gentle water, and the reverse flow of time and space could no longer cause him any harm.
I don't know how long it took for me to leave, and the darkness in front of me finally changed.Shen Yue's concept of time is very weak now, no matter how long or short it is, it is just a moment in his consciousness.
The ancient and dilapidated city gate appeared in front of Shen Yue's eyes, the bare dead tree was still in front of the gate, and there was still an invisible black shadow hanging upside down on the tree.
The gatekeeper sensed that someone was coming, flapped his wings lazily as before, and said, "After all, you came to the Eight Cold Hell for him, but unfortunately the contract has been broken... Wait."
The gatekeeper suddenly raised his head, and he stared at Shen Yue for a moment. From those eyes that were plated with a layer of dark gold, the gatekeeper seemed to realize something suddenly, and he murmured: "...No, Lord God , Sure enough, he was tricking me."
Shen Yue just said two words expressionlessly: "Open the door."
The gatekeeper hesitated.
"Didn't you always want to see if I would come to the Eight Cold Hell? Now that I am standing in front of the city gate, why are you unwilling to open the gate?" Shen Yue's tone was flat, without any emotion, But it made the gatekeeper look a little restless.
"No, that was before, and now the contract is over. It doesn't matter to me whether you will enter the Eight Cold Hell." The gatekeeper retracted his wings and wrapped his face tightly in it, with a sound long sigh
"Before you saw me, you obviously didn't think so." Shen Yue looked at him, the golden light in his eyes seemed to be slightly ignited, even if he was not emotional, he revealed an inexplicable sense of coercion.
Seeing Shen Yue's outspoken words, the gatekeeper simply stopped covering up and said directly: "Because the you before are different from the you now, aren't you?"
Shen Yue was obviously a little impatient, and didn't intend to continue entanglement with the gatekeeper, so he said again: "Open the door."
The gatekeeper turned his head, and finally compromised: "Then I have agreed in advance, although I am the gatekeeper of the Eight Cold Hell, I have no right to let people out. If you want to save people from it..."
The door of the Eight Cold Hell slowly opened, as if a giant beast in the darkness had opened its mouth.
Shen Yue didn't care what the gatekeeper said, he had already disappeared behind the gate when only one person could pass through the gate.
The gatekeeper looked at Shen Yue's leaving back and thought for a long time.Suddenly his body shook and turned into countless tiny black dust, and he went to nowhere.
As far as the gatekeeper is concerned, even though he is outside the world, even the gods can't do anything to him, but he doesn't want to have a face-to-face conflict with Shen Yue.
These Eight Cold Hells are transformed by a chaotic energy in the prehistoric, no matter how noisy they are, they will not be harmed by it, so let them go.
Anyway, the gatekeeper has already seen the ending he wanted to see. Even if the contract expires, it can be regarded as adding an extra color to his long and boring life. As for the next thing, he can't afford to intervene.
Besides, there is really no one in this world who can stop Shen Yue.
-
Passing through the ancient city gate, Shen Yue was greeted by another large area of darkness.
Shen Yue used to hate the dark and cold, and felt uncomfortable and disgusted every time he went to such a place, but now he doesn't seem to care anymore.His only purpose is to fulfill those "promises" that he himself imprinted on the soul
Inside the city gate of Bahan Hell, there is also an old tree with withered vines like the one outside the city gate, and a small figure of a young boy leans quietly under the tree.
There is a translucent light on his body that is dissipating little by little, and it is drifting towards the depths of the Eight Cold Hell.After losing the soul of heaven and the soul of the earth, the last soul of the young man is also gradually dissipating.
Shen Yue rushed over quickly, put his hands on the young man's shoulders, and gathered the white light spots that hadn't drifted away into the young man's body.
Even so, more than half of the youth's life and soul had already been lost.As a result, even his body changed back to his childhood appearance. He looked only about ten years old, almost two or three years after Shen Yue met him.
Shen Yue shook his shoulder lightly, and paused for a moment. After confirming that he had adjusted his tone, he called his name softly: "Old Years."
The young Xie Xiannian's eyelashes trembled twice, like a slender and fragile butterfly wing, making people worry that he will suddenly disappear in front of him like those white spots of light that have drifted away anytime and anywhere.
Shen Yue's hand on Xie Xiannian's shoulder couldn't help but tighten slightly. He shouldn't have this kind of emotion at this time, but it's like the residual memory of his body - even if he loses all emotional fluctuations, he will still be driven by instinct. react below.
"Master..." Xie Xiannian slowly opened his eyes, there was still a bit of water vapor in the black eyes, like a slightly wronged animal, he suddenly threw himself into Shen Yue's arms.
Shen Yue was stunned for a moment, then reached out and patted the boy's back: "What's wrong?"
"I don't want to have junior and junior sisters. I don't want to have any of them." The boy's voice was hoarse, because he couldn't see his face, so he dared to cry at this moment, "Master has friends and relatives by his side, but I only have Master alone."
Tears mixed with hoarse crying, sticking to Shen Yue's heart trembling.
"I only have one master, so why can't the master only have me as an apprentice?"
Shen Yue was stunned by this question, he thought about it, it should be because Xie Xi Nian lost his mind and soul, even his memory returned to his childhood.When the spirit returns to its place, it should reply together.
But now Xie Xiannian's memories should be when he had a conflict with Shen Yue.
At that time, Lu Gui had just been sent to the Li Palace. He was recommended by a friend of Shen Yue's own family. Shen Yue saw that he had good qualifications and was trustworthy, so he planned to take another apprentice. This was also a very common thing.
Unexpectedly, Xie Xiannian, who was always well-behaved and obedient, suddenly had an awkward fight with Shen Yue.
It's okay to lose your temper. Xie Xiannian was still young at that time, and he didn't know what kind of temper he committed, so he just ran away from home alone, and Shen Yue almost missed him.
Later, Xie Xiannian came back, and Shen Yue did not accept any other apprentices since then.
After finding out the memories from the past, Shen Yue followed the words in his memory. After a long while, he held up the young man's face, wiped away the tears on his cheeks, and coaxed in a low voice: "My eyes are red from crying, looking at It’s like a rabbit. I thought it’s such a big deal, so if you don’t accept it, don’t accept it.”
"Really?" The boy's eyes became bright instantly, although there were still tears in his eyes.
"Really." Shen Yue comforted Xie Xiannian, and hugged him, "I'll take you back."
Xie Xi Nian's current appearance has not yet grown, when Shen Yue hugged him, he could still sit on Shen Yue's arm, with his side pressed against Shen Yue's chest.This made the little boy's face flush slightly, and his eyes blinked, as if two stars were hidden.
But then, the scene in front of him made the little boy's face turn pale.
The soil that Shen Yue's feet stepped on looked a little wet and sticky. Even if he didn't look down, Shen Yue knew how much blood was mixed in it.There is always a smell of decay in the air, and from time to time there is a painful whine hidden in the darkness.
Eight Cold Hell is by no means a good place, it attracts most of the "filthy things" in this world, and ordinary people can't imagine what kind of scene in hell it is.Faced with these frightening scenes, Shen Yue didn't stop at all.
"Don't be afraid," Shen Yue saw Xie Xiannian trembling slightly from the corner of his eyes, but he still tried to pretend to be calm.Thinking that Xie Xiannian was still a young child at this time, Shen Yue comforted him softly, patted him on the back, and hugged him even tighter.
Xie Xiannian stretched out his hand and hugged Shen Yue's neck tightly, pursed his slightly pale lips: "It's okay, Master... I'm not afraid."
Shen Yue felt a feeling of heartache, obviously his heart had been replaced by the Sky-Mending Stone, why since he found Xie Xi Nian, he has been conveying this emotion that shouldn't appear.
He said: "It will be fine, I will definitely take you out of here safely."
The monsters that grew out of the rotten soil of the Eight Cold Hells more or less felt the aura of the man in front of them. Even if he didn't hold any weapons in his hands, the monsters knew that they should never approach him easily.
Occasionally, there would be a few monsters that had already lost their sanity and bumped up without thinking, but before they got close to the person's side, they had already shattered into golden powder and floated far away.
After repeating this situation a few times, the monsters dormant in the dark have learned to behave themselves.They didn't even continue to peep secretly, but turned around and hid in the depths of darkness.
For a moment, the path Shen Yue walked and the place he was about to walk turned out to be the quietest and safest place in the Eight Cold Hells.
Layer after layer, the deeper you go, the more uncomfortable the feeling of hell will be.Shen Yue himself didn't feel much, but he could feel that Xie Nian in his arms was not in a good state.
This made Shen Yue speed up his pace again. He found Xie Xi Nian's heavenly soul and earthly soul on the fifth and seventh floors of the Eight Cold Hell respectively.
The soul of heaven is on the seventh floor, so it is said that it is impossible to ask for it.
The earth soul is on the fifth floor, which is called love and parting.
As for Xie Xienian's dissipated half of the Fate Soul, this is the last layer that has drifted into the Eight Cold Hells.
There is no special name here, but when Shen Yue entered, he saw a familiar scene.That was once he had seen it with the Lord God.Later, when I became a god, I saw the picture again.
Looking down from the bottom of the Eight Cold Hells, one can see the whole picture of the four realms and ten states, as if this is the end of the world.
Xie Xie has been here before, although it is not like a real god.This perspective can always be maintained.But such an important scene is seen even once.Also enough to learn a lot of secrets.
This can explain why Xie Yuheng, who was transformed into the Heavenly Soul, knew the secret realm of Luohu Mountain like the back of his hand.He once said that he had a map of Mount Luohu, and it must be here that he learned about it.
Shen Yue gently stroked the scene in front of him as if separated by a transparent water curtain.
Xie Xinian's souls scattered in the Eight Cold Hells have all been found, but Shen Yue did not immediately let them return to Xie Xi Nian's body, but chose to leave the Eight Cold Hells first.
Without too many movements and no extra preparations, Shen Yue just raised his hand lightly to split the scene in front of him.It seems that the eight cold hells that no one has ever been able to get out of are just paper.
"I'll be going back soon." After Shen Yue finished speaking, he touched Xie Nian's forehead as if comforting him.
Xie Xiannian buried his head in Shen Yue's shoulder and nodded.
Just like when Shen Yue came in.It was also easy when he left.However, Shen Yue didn't like this feeling - he gained a lot and lost too much, in his opinion, the loss outweighed the gain.
Through the crowded and dark time flow, Shen Yue can even estimate where the exit of the next void gap is.
Choosing the place closest to Li Palace, when Shen Yue walked out with Xie Nian in his arms, he happened to appear in front of Lu Gui who had just finished dealing with things.
Lu Gui showed surprise in his eyes, before he asked, Shen Yue did the second thing he specially branded on the soul.
A very subtle crisp sound spread, like the sound of jade breaking.Layer after layer, one can't help guessing that the broken thing seems to be a huge net.
What was directly crushed by Shen Yue was nothing else but the barrier set up with the map of Shanhe Sheji.
This layer of barrier once erased Xie Xi Nian's existence in the world, and Shen Yue was unable to break through this layer of shackles for a long time because he could not completely control the map of Shanhe Sheji.
Now that Shen Yue has merged with the map of Shanhe Sheji, even the rules imposed by the creator on this prehistoric treasure, Shen Yue can completely change it.
At the same time, Shen Yue incorporated the remaining souls of Xie Xi Nian into his youthful body.A faint white light emerged, and Xie Xi Nian finally returned to this world completely - together with all his existence that had been erased.
The reintegration of spirit and soul will take some time, so Xie Xiannian didn't wake up immediately, but Shen Yue still whispered in his ear in advance: "Welcome back."
Lu Gui on the side was dazed for a while because of the influx of memories.
The rules of the world will modify some unreasonable places on their own, and the final result usually does not cause people to notice too many problems.Perhaps in Lu Gui's current memory, Xie Xiannian only traveled for many years.
Returning to the familiar scene and seeing familiar people, Shen Yue put Xie Xiannian down from his arms at ease.
The soul is still slowly merging, and Xie Xi Nian will return to his original stature when the merging is complete.
"Lu Gui, take care of it for me." Shen Yue said.
"Where is your lord going?" Lu Gui always felt that something was different when Shen Yue came back this time, but he couldn't tell what was wrong, but he instinctively felt a slight sense of fear.
Shen Yue knew what was on his mind just by looking at him, even the slightest mood swings could not escape Shen Yue's eyes."I'll be back soon, don't worry, everything will be the same when I get back," he said.
After saying this, Shen Yue squatted down.
Without warning, he cut his fingertips and drew a mark on the ground with fresh blood.
This mark is not dazzling gold, but gorgeous crimson.
