I stole divine power in Daxia

Chapter 616: The Fourth Yama Palace Reappears

Hanshan Road west of Daxia.

This place is sandwiched between two mountains. Entering it leads to the nine western provinces, and exiting it guards the central plains. Therefore, it has always been a place of contention for military strategists.

Since the Lord of Daming Palace was appointed last year, he has led an army of 300,000 to guard this place and confront Western Buddhism.

Although the Lord of Daming Palace hated Buddhism very much, he was the best chess player in the world with extraordinary concentration. Zhou Tieyi made a plan to cut off the food supply and force the Buddhist refugees in the West to cause chaos. This plan was very effective before Maitreya Buddha established the [Salvation Mantra], and the Lord of Daming Palace was willing to implement this plan.

He has always regarded immortality as his top priority. When he first came to Yujing Mountain, he said to Miaoyu and Zhou Tieyi when he saw them alone that in a few decades, most of the Taoists here would turn into a handful of yellow earth, so why bother with them.

Of course, in his opinion, as long as the method is right, he can wait even for one or two hundred years, let alone one or two years.

However, Buddhism has twenty-four Buddhas after all, which means there are many talented people. Maitreya created the [Saving Mantra] a month ago, which completely changed the situation and temporarily stabilized the trend of Buddhism's collapse, forcing the Lord of Daming Palace to prepare for an attack.

On the left side of the central army tent, Zhou Tiege was guarding the tent as a lieutenant general. This was the exchange of interests between Zhou Tieyi and the Lord of Daming Palace. At this time, above the East China Sea, a red star had risen slowly in the night, but Hanshan Island was to the west, so the sky was still mostly bright, but the rolling sunset glow was like blood, coming from the east, and in the sunset glow, the setting sun was scorching, and there seemed to be a reddish star twinkling in it.

Such a strange phenomenon naturally attracted the attention of middle and upper level practitioners. Zhou Tiege felt something and looked at the strange phenomenon that suddenly appeared in the sky. The only pity was that although he had completed the fifth-grade "Weapon Forging" practice, the Western Army under the command of the Lord of Daming Palace and Western Buddhism had been in a state of complete confrontation for the past six months. Even if he escaped from the cage of Tianjing, he had no chance to condense the military spirit.

The true military spirit can only be condensed through killing in war. In this regard, Ada even has an advantage over him.

"Mars opposition?"

Zhou Tiege muttered to himself softly, looking a little confused.

The current situation is extremely complicated. Although Zhou Tiege can make simple judgments about the celestial phenomena, he does not have the method to cultivate celestial phenomena, so he cannot understand the specific meaning of these celestial phenomena.

There is no need to say much about Da Ri. It either refers to a saint or Emperor Da Xia.

However, Mars is a red star, but nowadays it has several different references.

Zhou Tieyi practiced the Five Elements and was also competing with the Emperor of Daxia for the destiny, so it was completely understandable that he entered the sea of ​​blood and showed the astronomical phenomenon of fireflies coming from the east and hitting the sun.

In addition, Zhuge Dan took over Chi De and is now confronting Long Ting on the southeast coast, which can also be called the Mars-Sun conflict. There is also Ju Zidan, a miscellaneous master who has entered the first-grade realm. When he entered the first-grade realm that day, he also showed the scene of surging red flames.

While Zhou Tiege was still analyzing, a messenger from the big tent rushed over and said, "General Zhou, the commander-in-chief wants to see you!"

Zhou Tiege didn't have time to think about it and followed the messenger to the central army tent. He originally thought that the Lord of Daming Palace summoned him so urgently perhaps to attack Western Buddhism. After all, since Maitreya passed down the [Saving Mantra], the Lord of Daming Palace had been preparing to attack Western Buddhism for more than a month. This was enough time for Daxia to fight a test battle and find out the current strength of Western Buddhism.

However, when he arrived at the big tent, he found that besides himself, there was only the Lord of Daming Palace.

After the messenger left, the Lord of Daming Palace, who was still wearing his Taoist robe, pointed to the seat next to him.

"sit."

Zhou Tiege walked with the gait of a dragon and a tiger and sat firmly.

The Daming Palace Master smiled and said, "You're wondering why I came to you alone?"

Zhou Tiege nodded slightly.

"Because the person who tied the bell must be the one who can untie it."

Zhou Tiege showed a somewhat confused look. Even if the Mars opposition happened to his brother, did the Lord of Daming Palace think he could convince Zhou Tieyi?

The Lord of Daming Palace continued, "The celestial phenomenon just now was not meant for Zhou Tieyi, but for you!"

"I?"

Zhou Tiege pointed at himself, looking confused.

The Lord of Daming Palace looked relaxed, and casually revealed the biggest secret of the Zhou family, "Every generation of the Zhou family must inherit the bloodline of the Emperor of Life and Death, but in fact, this bloodline inheritance also has rules."

“Since the Emperor of Life and Death uses life and death as his symbol, his bloodline is naturally divided into life and death. Therefore, in each generation of the Zhou family, there must be an even number of sons. One of them inherits more of the Emperor of Life and Death’s bloodline, and is death, while the other inherits less of the Emperor of Life and Death’s bloodline, and is life.”

"Your father wanted to trap the Taoist fish dragon, so all the schools of thought placed a heavy bet on him, which helped him to reverse the bloodline inheritance to a certain extent, and even escape the bloodline cage. So your uncle took on the bloodline of your Zhou family's generation, and not only did he die, but he also left no offspring."

“In your generation, you and Zhou Tieyi should have inherited a portion of the Life and Death Emperor’s bloodline, but your brother…”

Before the Lord of Daming Palace finished speaking, Zhou Tiege took the opportunity to speak up, "Tieyi is the reincarnation of Yanhuang Divine Lord. He naturally has a way to avoid the constraints of bloodline. On the other hand, this means that I have inherited the bloodline of all the emperors of my generation. Am I also trapped in a dead end like my uncle?"

Zhou Tiege had already been mentally prepared for this matter. The Zhou family's bloodline power was extremely terrifying, but Zhou Tieyi had never had any such power. On the contrary, ever since Zhou Tieyi established the Taihang Divine Court and got involved in the power of the underworld, that time he had directly collided with the will of the Emperor of Life and Death. Although the Emperor of Life and Death could not do anything to his brother that time, a strange thing happened.

That is, the 'failed' Emperor of Life and Death opened up more bloodline permissions to himself, even the core authority of [Yin De], so that Zhou Tiege would never use the [Huangquan] magical power like the Zhou family members who became increasingly 'cold' and eventually became a living dead.

However, the Emperor of Life and Death is obviously not so kind and must have other plans.

When the Lord of Daming Palace said that the opposition of Mars would happen to him today, Zhou Tiege had already prepared for it. Hearing this, the Lord of Daming Palace laughed and waved his hand, "If it were anyone else, it would be a dead end, but the eight gods combined could not defeat the Yanhuang God back then, so how can a dead Emperor of Life and Death defeat your brother today?"

At this point, he looked solemn and sighed, "When a saint thinks, the whole world moves. This is truly an unimaginable power..."

He sighed casually, then turned around and looked at Zhou Tiege seriously, "Although it is not a dead end, you need to solve this situation. If you can solve it, not only can we launch a large-scale attack on Western Buddhism, but the battlefield on the coastal area will also change."

"What game?"

“In the past, the Emperor of Daxia used your Zhou family’s bloodline to transform himself into the most powerful and vicious of the living dead, called Hanba, in order to achieve an alternative form of immortality. Now, Western Buddhism has joined forces with the Nine Ancient Gods to release Hanba, who is suppressed in Yama Palace, so as to intensify the chaos in the world. If they succeed, not only will the Five Immortals Way founded by your brother suffer a fatal blow, but the entire Daxia will also be covered in millions of corpses!”

Zhou Tiege looked solemn, then smiled calmly and said, "It seems that I have no room to evade."

The Lord of Daming Palace took a sword box from the side and handed it to Zhou Tiege. "I have refined this sword for a hundred years. It is called the Supreme Demon Slayer. It cannot be used easily. If you use it, you must kill a Grade One before you can return it. Otherwise, the user will surely die. You take this sword and go to Chongshan Prefecture to find the Qing Emperor's lineage. One of their elders is trapped in the Fourth Yama Palace and has not been rescued yet. This time the Fourth Yama Palace will be opened, and their elder will have a chance to escape. You can borrow the [Qing Emperor's Chariot] in the name of your brother, and this trip will be much smoother."

······
In the darkness, the sun and the moon were without light, and suddenly three rays of divine light fell into the darkness.

The Yellow Spring stopped flowing here, forming a terrifying waterfall that fell further downwards. The vast expanse of Yellow Spring water caused cracks in the void, so that people below the third rank did not dare to explore it easily. Even those at the third rank needed to be cautious.

Therefore, the secret of the Fourth Yama Palace is only known to a few people and has never been revealed to the world.

But the few people who came here today are here to reveal this secret in front of the whole world!
Maitreya Buddha, the Dragon Priest, and the Thunder Priest did not have to wait long before they received a notification from the Dragon Priest that another ray of divine light was coming from afar. This divine light was white in color, but it revealed a strong aura of death. When it came in front of them, a white skeleton in a black robe was revealed. It was the Bone Priest.

If you want to completely change the geographical environment of the underworld, you must have the help of the underworld's authority.

"Now that we are here, let's get started."

In order to avoid any further complications, Priest Thunder took direct and decisive action.

He stretched out his palm, and his broad and thick palm grabbed the void, and a blazing white and pure lightning appeared in the hand of the Thunder Priest. The moment this thunder appeared, the underworld world seemed like a dark and evil curtain, and the Thunder Priest was holding a bright paintbrush in his hand.

There are only a dozen people who have mastered the method of opening up the world. Now, only Zhou Tieyi, the sky priest, has demonstrated the method of opening up the world.

Thunder is the pivot of yin and yang. The Thunder God lineage can be ranked among the nine ancient gods by relying on pure "brute force". Of course, it is also because thunder itself contains a part of the "opening" rules. Even the Emperor of Heaven cannot control this supreme rule alone.

The moment the snow-white thunder was grasped in the hands of the Thunder Priest, it was suddenly thrown towards the broken Yellow Spring.

This continuous waterfall was caused by the great war between the various parties that year, which led to the collapse of the rules of the underworld and caused the Fourth Yama Palace to continue sinking.

If we want to reshape the landform here now, we naturally have to use the pure power of development to sort out all the "garbage".

I saw the terrifying white thunder lighting up the entire Netherworld sky and penetrating into the vast Yellow Spring Waterfall. In the Yellow Spring Waterfall, hidden void cracks that even the third-grade cultivators were afraid of were chopped down by the divine thunder. All kinds of chaotic and entangled rules and energies returned to their original state and formed matter, energy and rules.

Then, one after another cracks in the void were enveloped by the divine thunder, and a moment later, the heaven and earth roared, and the snow-white thunder spread in the turbid yellow spring, rebuilding the basic space framework among pure matter, energy and rules.

Although Priest Lei is one of the ten people who have mastered the method of opening up the universe, the method he has mastered is still far from complete and is only enough to build a basic space structure.

When the thunder died down, the Bone Priest suddenly plunged into the rushing Yellow Spring like a carp. This Yellow Spring tributary, which originally fell continuously downward, suddenly "branched up" in the space structure built by the Thunder Priest.

The water of the Yellow Spring no longer fell continuously, but meandered along the new spatial structure in the netherworld. The river water changed from flowing downward to flowing horizontally. The change of the entire space also caused the Fourth Yama Palace to be slowly "lifted" up from the abyss.

The ancient city made of bronze and black iron is like the rising sun. The majestic fog formed by the collision of karmic fire and the underworld is no longer accumulated in the valley, but begins to spread towards the endless underworld. This also makes the huge city outline appear to the world little by little like a giant foggy island in the sea.

At this time, Maitreya Buddha stretched out his hand and said, "Then let me lend a helping hand."

The moment he pointed his finger, illusory lotus petals condensed at his fingertips, and each lotus petal symbolized a complete Buddhist pure land.

Western Buddhism jointly established the twenty-four devas, and the twenty-four devas exist as a whole.

When necessary, the Buddhas can borrow the power of other heavens.

At this time, Maitreya Buddha used the power of the twenty-four gods as a "gateway".

Originally, the underworld and the world of the living are connected, which is why countless cracks in the underworld are formed. Generally speaking, there are some rules for the appearance of cracks in the underworld.

For example, in places with extremely heavy yin energy in the world of the living, it is easy for dark cracks to appear.

Maitreya and his companions are now reshaping the terrain around the Fourth Yama Palace and helping to eliminate dangers. They want more people to enter the Fourth Yama Palace. Naturally, he will not wait for others to discover this place, but will take the initiative to use the function of the Twenty-Four Heavens Portal to connect the Netherworld and the World of the Living.

Then, in various places in the world of the living, Buddha's light suddenly bloomed, and in that light was reflected a majestic, ancient, and dead city. Bronze and black iron were built into long streets, and the towering spires did not look like human residences. Instead, they looked more like thrones where real dragons were hovering. The style was very different from that of the world, and the all-pervading Buddha's light had already attracted the attention of people all over the world, not to mention that at this time news had come from all over the world.

The Fourth Yama Palace has reappeared in the world, this palace originally belonged to the Canglong Divine Court, and then was shot down in the battle of the gods and buried in the underworld for ten thousand years. Zhou Tianzun obtained the [Fallen Banner] from here. Now this city has reappeared in the world, with countless treasures and opportunities. Anyone who touches the Buddha's light can enter it.

This piece of news was known to all the noble families in the world in less than half an hour. Although everyone speculated that there must be something fishy, ​​who could refuse a Yama Palace that had not been fully explored and from which even Zhou Tianzun benefited!
