Dark History
Chapter 563 Dark History
He got the Book of Life and Death from the witch god Wei. People who knew that the Book of Life and Death fell into his hands included Xing'an, Pangong Tso, and the evil monks of Leiyin Temple.
The Wushen should be the celestial official or the earthly official in the heavenly court, the god in charge of souls.
The Book of Life and Death of the Wu God should not be made by him, but a treasure bestowed by him. There should not be many such treasures in the Heavenly Court. Each volume of the Book of Life and Death has an owner, so the old Yincha said that the clues would soon be traced back to Qin Mu.
Tracking down the whereabouts of the Book of Life and Death is much easier than tracking down Qin Mu.
"The name that appeared in the Book of Life and Death just now is Huang."
Qin Mu lifted up the yellow talisman, revealing half of his face, and asked, "What kind of god is Huang?"
"Fenghuang is the god in the underworld. He breathes in and out, and between his breaths, floods cover the heavens and harvest the souls of the world. He is one of the four commanders of the heavenly court stationed in the underworld."
The old man said, "He's not the only one looking for you. There are three other commanders, Xuanming who controls souls, Hanli who controls fate, and Luli who controls prisons. You shouldn't have taken out the Book of Life and Death. It won't be difficult for them to find you."
Qin Mu was silent for a moment, then said with embarrassment: "If I give the Book of Life and Death to the Great Venerable or Xing An and put the blame on them, it seems that it will be easy to find out..."
The old man said, "You are only eighteen years old, so you can only frame someone of your age. The ages of the two people you mentioned are not consistent. Moreover, after the four commanders harvest the souls of the young men of your age, they will find that the other party is not you, so it is not so easy to frame you... Bah! How could I give you such a bad idea?"
Qin Mu put down the yellow talisman, covered his face, and said shyly: "The righteous will have many supporters, while the unrighteous will have few. The Lord of the Mansion must know that I am honest and simple, so he is helping me with ideas. Since we can't frame them, then can these four gods leave Youdu and enter Taihuangtian or Yankang?"
The boat slowly drifted towards Taihuangtian. On the boat, the old Yincha still hung the lantern on the pole at the bow. He sat down and said with some self-abandonment, "They are too strong to enter other worlds easily, but there is always a way to capture you. When you cultivate to the realm of life and death, the Life and Death Divine Treasure will be opened and connected to the Nether City. Then they may find you and invade through your Life and Death Divine Treasure."
Qin Mu shuddered. Invasion from the God of Life and Death?
Wouldn't it be extremely dangerous for someone who has cultivated the power of life and death?
"However, Youdu has its own rules. Invading from the Treasure House of Life and Death and taking your life is against the rules of Youdu. They will not do this easily."
The old Yinchai gave up and simply revealed more information, continuing, "However, although they cannot descend in person, they have the ability to send their disciples to Taihuangtian or Yankang, or find other people as minions and let them kill you. Or, wait until Taihuangtian is captured by the demons, and sacrifice blood to Taihuangtian, sacrifice the entire world, and connect the demon world with Yankang. At that time, the world barrier will no longer exist, and they can directly enter Yankang."
Qin Mu was relieved and said with a smile: "It's not that easy to kill me, and it's not easy to capture Taihuangtian. Taihuangtian has survived for 20,000 years, and now with Yankang as the backing and continuous reinforcements, it will be easy to hold out for another 20,000 years."
The old man sneered and said, "You underestimated the demons. It's hard to say how long Taihuangtian can hold out... When you get to Taihuangtian, you can take off the yellow talisman and go back."
Qin Mu looked hurriedly and saw that this was still Taihuangtian's battlefield, vaguely the place where he was taken away, so he jumped off the boat.
"Give me back the yellow talisman!" the old ghost shouted.
Qin Mu had a yellow talisman stuck on his face and ran away as if he was a thief who had been discovered.
"hateful!"
The old ghost saw him running away and became furious. Just as he was about to chase him, he suddenly stopped and laughed, "It's just a yellow talisman. As long as he doesn't cause trouble, just give it to him." The boat retreated and disappeared into the darkness.
Qin Mu escaped for more than ten miles and looked back. He found that the old man and the ship were not chasing him. He breathed a sigh of relief, took off the yellow talisman on his face, looked at it, and hid it carefully.
"This yellow talisman is a good thing. Even gods and demons can't recognize my true face when I put it on my face. This trip to Youdu can be considered as getting some good things."
He looked up and was slightly startled. He saw in the sky a row of tower ships that were returning to the city, only a few hundred miles away from him. The furnaces of the tower ships spewed out strong flames, allowing these tower ships to fly in the air.
"It's been a long time since I left Taihuangtian, at least three hours. How come these ships have only flown a few hundred miles? According to the speed of the ships, they should have flown thousands of miles. Now it seems that only a quarter of an hour has passed..."
Qin Mu ran as fast as he could, catching up with the troops on the ground first, and soon he caught up with the fleet of tower ships and came to the main ship. Yankang State Master and Black Tiger God looked at him in shock, and the people around him were also shocked. They were still talking about Qin Mu being invited into the Nether City by the Yin Messenger, wondering what would happen, and then they saw Qin Mu running from behind them.
Qin Mu smiled and said, "I'm back. How long have I been away this time?"
"Less than half an hour."
Sang Hua was extremely surprised and said with a chuckle, "You were taken away by the underworld messenger, and then you came back from Youdu?"
"The Yinchai is the Lord of Youdu. He took me to other worlds and found a powerful Shenqiao of Han Zhen. He said he would harvest his soul in three days. Then he took me to see Tubo and explained the cause and effect. Tubo said he would settle the score after I died, so he sent me back. We also encountered some gods and demons of Youdu who wanted to capture me."
After Qin Mu talked about it, he also felt it was strange. He had accomplished so many things in such a short time. If it were in the mortal world, it would probably take him three to five days to accomplish the same thing.
However, in the Netherworld, the time taken was very short, while in the world of the living, only half an hour had passed.
"Youdu is like a dream. Your trip to Youdu is like entering a dream."
Imperial Master Yankang's eyes flickered as he said, "As long as you come back alive, that's good. Is Tu Bo very scary?"
Qin Mu shook his head and said, "Tu Bo is easy to talk to, and so is Yin Cha."
Everyone looked strange. Tu Bo and Yin Cha were easy to talk to? Only Qin Mu could say this!
Everyone, even gods and demons, would turn pale when talking about Tu Bo, and they were even more secretive about the Yincha of Youdu and dared not say much.
"Maha——"
The young dragon on Qin Yu's body swam down quickly, ran to Qin Mu's body, rubbed against him. Qin Yu was very upset, thinking: "I haven't even warmed up yet, and I've been seduced away again..."
Qin Mu touched the little dragon, and the little dragon hung on his ear again, with its head drooping and its whiskers swaying.
Qin Yu felt jealous.
"Brother Qin Yu, I will lend you this little dragon for a while. Maybe I will even take him to Daxu. When I return it to you, I promise you will be surprised!"
Qin Mu smiled and said, "I was captured by Fu Ri Luo, and I was on the run all the way. I also went to Youdu. I am really tired. I will go and rest first."
Qin Yu watched him leave with Xiaolong, thinking: "I wonder if my Xiaolong will still be mine in a few days? He has taken his soul away..."
Youdu.
The old man came back to the Tianqi Rensheng Palace, sat down, and opened a thick file, which was the one given to Lava Tubo for reading.
Qin Mu originally wanted to read this thick book, but Lava Tubo was too tall and he was too short, and he had to pretend to be well-behaved at the time, so he did not read the content of the book.
The old ghost messenger opened the first page and saw a flowing pattern on it. It was a dark continent and the scene of a woman giving birth. The boundless evil energy and resentful souls of the underworld were flowing, flowing madly into the small delivery room.
That small delivery room seemed to be hiding a terrifying demon king, who was devouring all the evil thoughts, devilish nature and demonic energy in Youdu.
Outside that continent, countless demons were alarmed and hid in the darkness, nervously watching the first living being born through childbirth in Youdu's history.
"The Son of God is born!" A demon said these words at the edge of the first page.
Above the delivery room, scarlet eyes opened, one, two, three.
The old ghost messenger turned to the second page, and the picture in the book changed. A fat boy jumped out of the woman's arms, revealing his three-eyed true form, and was wreaking havoc on a dark continent. His two chubby hands crushed to death two demons who were about to plot against him. His three eyes opened, and three flames shot out, burning the continent and killing countless demons in the underworld.
On that continent, big ghosts, small ghosts, and ghost kings fled in all directions, with fear showing on their ferocious faces. It was a very vivid picture.
The baby put a demon god to its mouth and bit off half of its head, looking very bloodthirsty.
The old ghost shook his head and continued to flip through the pages. At the back was the baby who had swallowed countless undead souls and eaten two demon gods. He had grown unnaturally large and was doing evil everywhere with a ferocious look. He defeated one layer of the underworld after another and killed the demon gods who were chasing them, their mother and their clansmen, making them flee in all directions.
However, this baby seemed to be born with an extremely strong evil intent. No matter if it was the ghosts chasing him and his mother or other ghosts living in the underworld, he would kill and swallow them all when he met them.
The old ghost also saw panic and fear on the mother's face in the picture on the second page. She was a little afraid of her son and his evil nature.
The old ghost turned to the next page, and it still showed the scene of the baby killing people everywhere. He was stepping on a huge dragon, which was being ripped open, with three fierce eyes.
However, at the end of the picture, the baby, after eating, turns into a small baby with arms outstretched, asking his mother to hold him.
The old ghost messenger flipped through the pages one by one. The things recorded in the back of the book were even more unbearable to read. This baby defeated wave after wave of demons that were chasing them, and also defeated the gods and demons that attacked them. He slaughtered people everywhere, and alarmed the giants hidden in Youdu.
The giants attacked the baby and killed him so hard that the sky collapsed and the earth broke.
At the back of the book, it is said that the baby has become the overlord of the Netherworld by committing numerous evil deeds and being extremely cruel. One day, he came to the edge of the Netherworld and spied on the world of the living with his huge, devilish scarlet eyes, revealing an excited look.
On the other side of the picture, the giants of Youdu are telling something to the great Tubo, and the mother is also praying to Tubo.
The three-eyed Tu Bo took off a piece of jade from his horn and refined it into a jade pendant. The mother left a mark on the jade pendant with tears in her eyes, called her son over, and hung it around his neck.
The baby's evil nature was suppressed, his divinity was also suppressed, and his body returned to normal, turning into a most ordinary baby, a tiny one, lying in a cradle, babbling, raising his hands and feet, and sucking his toes seriously.
The mother picked him up, kissed him a few times, and reluctantly put him in the basket. A woman carried the basket and sat on a paper boat and went away.
In the back, ghost kings of all sizes, big ghosts, little ghosts and looming demons were beating gongs and drums to see them off.
The old ghost turned to the last page. The picture showed Qin Mu in an ominous place, with long hair draped over his shoulders, wielding a sword and performing magic, opening the Gate of Chengtian to summon the souls of the underworld.
At that time, the jade pendant on his neck floated up.
"Eighteen years."
The old ghost closed the scroll, hid it, and let out a long breath: "This kid is completely different from his former self. I hope his devilish nature will not awaken and be controlled by the devil again... Fortunately, Tu Bo sealed him and exiled him to the world of the living, otherwise I don’t know what would happen to Youdu? Maybe if he stayed in Youdu, he would not even live to be eighteen years old, and would have been eaten by Tu Bo because of his many evil deeds..."
