On the Avenue.

Chapter 329: The Monument Carver

The Soul Chaser Wang Fu and the other three judges looked around and their faces suddenly changed. The Twelve Void Realms were thousands of miles wide and contained boundless power. At the same time, thousands of feet tall Yuanshen descended from the sky and came from all directions.

These souls are the souls of powerful people in the Void Realm. When they move, the twelve void realms also move with them, giving them a great sense of oppression.

At the same time, above them, the sky suddenly became transparent as if made of glass, and a figure a hundred feet tall slowly stood up, holding a green gauze in his hand like a fishing net, twisting his waist and turning around, then sprinkling the rain down with force.

"Shh-"

The sky was filled with green light, which fell from the sky to form a huge green canopy, covering the world within a radius of thousands of miles.

Dozens of giants, each hundreds of feet tall, descended from the sky, holding large flags that fluttered in the wind. When they landed, they inserted the flags in their hands around the green silk cover.

There was a crackling sound of lightning on the flag, and green dragons made of lightning climbed out from the flag and climbed upwards, their bodies more than ten miles long.

The lightning continued, and so did the body of the Azure Dragon.

Chen Shi had seen the Zhao family's Tianlong Locking Demon Array in Xinxiang, but its scale was many times smaller than this Tianlong Locking Demon Array. It seemed that what the Zhao family in Xinxiang got back then was only an incomplete array.

The Zhao family's Tianlong Demon Locking Array is meant to lock up the Evil Bodhisattva, but this Demon Locking Array is even more powerful, attempting to lock up the three judges and the Yin messengers they lead!

"Does this net of heaven and earth also block the world of the living?"

Chen Shi thought, "If the Yang world is not blocked, then we can leave from the Yang world."

The Soul-Chasing Judge and others cannot enter the world of the living, but Black Pot can travel between the worlds of Yin and Yang.

Suddenly, one of Wang Fu's subordinates turned into a wisp of green smoke and tried to escape.

With a crackling sound, the green smoke hit the green silk cover, was struck by countless lightning bolts, and fell down.

"Don't try to escape."

A white-haired old man came over and said with a smile, "Hun Zhui, Sin Ye, Dao Shan, three judges, my Yan family has been looking for you for a long time, and today we can finally catch you all in one fell swoop."

Zhu Shun, the judge of the Sword Mountain, sneered and said, "You, the Yan family, think you can keep us here? Do you think we, the judges, are so easy to control?"

He took out the Judge's Pen: "The Yan family has betrayed the True King! Without the Judge's Pen in my hand, you can't control the Knife Mountain Hell!"

His body shook, and in an instant he turned into a thousand-foot-tall god, shining with golden light, as if made of pure gold. The scent of incense lingered around him, and the people chanted his name. He suddenly shouted, and where the incense surged, a vast and boundless hell of sword mountains emerged.

In that hell of knives and swords, countless ghosts were walking and struggling on the blades of knives and axes, with blood all over their hands and feet, and they were screaming miserably.

This is a unique realm of ghosts and gods, where ghosts are tortured with swords. Even if they are chopped into pieces, they will be resurrected and experience the torture again, over and over again!
Zhu Shun's Judge's Pen condensed the power of the Knife Mountain Hell, his magic power was overwhelming, and his voice rolled like thunder: "Under the command of the True King, Xinxiang Governor Zhu Shun, today I will exorcise the demons in the underworld!"

Zhu Shun was a monk from the era of the True King. He was appointed Governor of Xinxiang. Because he loved his people like his own children, the common people of Xinxiang Province built a shrine for him.

During a magical transformation, Zhu Shun died in battle. The people of Xinxiang, grateful for his kindness, built a golden statue for him and worshipped him. Zhu Shun often appeared in the form of gods and his miracles were very effective.

When the incarnations of the Ten Kings of Hell descend upon the underworld to determine the moral principles of the underworld, the judge of the underworld is selected from among the monks with great merit at that time. The King of Hell chooses him from among the gods of the underworld and appoints him as the judge of the Knife Mountain Hell, in charge of the judge's pen.

The soul-chasing judge Wang Fu laughed loudly, and also showed his thousand-foot golden body. He raised his judge's pen and said sternly: "Under the command of the True King, the Junior Official of the Dali Temple, Wang Fu, will exorcise the demons in the underworld today!"

He was also a powerful figure in the True King era, the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple. He also made great contributions to the country and was given a temple and a golden statue. After his death, he was deified in the underworld.

His duty is to chase souls, chase the dead souls of the world. He is the leader of all the ghost messengers in the Wangchuan River, and commands the ten ghost generals, including the Ghost King, the Day Wandering God, the Night Wandering God, the Black and White Impermanence, the Ox-Head, the Horse-Faced God, the Leopard Tail, the Bird's Mouth, the Fish Gills, and the Wasp.

The Judge of Sins Jia Yuan let out a long roar, revealing a thousand-foot-tall golden body. He raised the Judge's Pen and said murderously, "Under the command of the True King, I, the Prefect of Gongtian Prefecture Jia Yuan, swear to protect the moral principles of the underworld until my death! As long as this god is here, the Taoist tradition will not be destroyed!"

He was also a man of great merit in the era of the True King. He was originally the prefect of Gongtian Prefecture and was good at judging unjust, false and wrong cases. After his death, he was named the Judge of Sins to examine the sins of monks and determine the punishment!
Chen Shi looked at the three judges and saw that their golden bodies emitted a dazzling light that illuminated the sky and earth, sweeping away the gloomy fog in the underworld and causing the ghosts and monsters in the underworld to retreat and stay away.

He was a little absent-minded.

Although the three judges had died long ago, they did not have any eerie ghostly aura. Instead, they had a sense of righteousness and a sacred aura.

They were different from the underworld ghosts and gods that Chen Shi had seen before. Although those underworld ghosts and gods also possessed powerful powers, they were eerie and evil, giving people a sense of evil.

However, these three judges, although they are ghosts and gods, possess righteousness, which may be what is called merit.

They are people with great merits who became gods after death. Even if they are evil gods, they are still full of righteousness!
"The three judges are in charge of the three judges' pens. Facing the siege of the Yan family should be no problem at all." Chen Shi felt a little relieved.

The twelve masters of the Return to Void Realm are certainly powerful, but the three judges are even stronger. In this battle, all these masters of the Yan family might die!

At this time, a rolling tide of bones rushed towards this side. Suddenly, countless bones flew up and turned into a long bone whip. It was caught in the hand of a judge who stood tall and upright, and danced in the air with a whistling sound.

The judge was the Tupan judge who had fought against Zhong Kui before. He was extremely powerful and said in a rumbling voice: "Soul-chasing Judge, in addition to the younger generation of my Yan family, we will also fight in this battle!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the earth cracked open, boiling earth air gushed out, and streams of magma gushed out from the ground. The Fire Judge emerged from the magma, holding the long river of magma as a whip, full of murderous intent.

This judge was none other than the other judge who besieged Zhong Kui that day, the Fire Judge.

Chen Shi's heart was slightly shocked: "The Fire and Earth Judges are all from the Yan family? Was it the Yan family who chased and killed Zhong Kui in the first place?"

As he thought of this, another group of Yin Marshals came over. Their aura was powerful. Although they were not as strong as the Fire and Earth Judges, they were still formidable. There were as many as seventeen Yin Marshals.

Wang Fu, Jia Yuan and Zhu Shun felt increasingly depressed.

Over the years, the Yan family has been deliberately weakening the Yama Palace left over from the True King era and replacing it. Today, they are finally going to complete their mission!

In the distance, the red-haired ghost stood in the dark clouds. Young Master Wei Yue stood on his shoulder. Looking at each other from afar, he smiled and said, "Today, my Yan family finally cleared all obstacles for my father Wei Ling. The goal of the Thirteenth Family has moved forward one step. These stubborn old gods are obstacles. For the sake of future peace and prosperity, they should have been eradicated long ago... Strange, how did Chen Shi get in?"

He frowned slightly.

He had already guessed that Chen Shi had come to Xiandu, so he ordered the ghosts and gods to go to Chen Shi's Yuanchen Palace to block Chen Shi. He didn't expect that this kid would actually run out of Xiandu and come here to join in the fun.

"Once the formation moves, he will definitely die."

Wei Yue whispered, "This person is talented, but it's a pity that I can't use him."

The red-haired ghost said, "Young Master, there are hundreds of demon gods hidden in Chen's body. If he dies, I'm afraid these demon gods will explode..."

Wei Yue smiled and said, "This is the underworld. There are demons everywhere in the underworld. Let him go. The thousand-year plan of my Yan family will not stop because of Chen Shi!"

Before he finished speaking, the battle had already begun. The Fire and Earth Judge swung his long whip and swept it towards the three judges. At the same time, the Yin Shuai and Yin Messengers of the Yan family also activated their magic weapons and attacked the three judges. The twelve great masters of the Yan family attacked at the same time in the world of the living!
The Yan family has been planning this battle for a long time and is determined to seize the ruling power of Yama Palace!
The Soul-Hunting Judge, the Sin Judge, and the Sword Mountain Judge all looked solemn. They each increased their divine power to the extreme and fought hard to meet the enemy!
They went through bloody battles in the era of the True King, which led to the later prosperous era of the True King. They just didn't expect that people in later generations would covet their divine power for their own power!

Wang Fu used his pen as a spear and cut off the Fire Judge's magma whip. The spear shook and cut the magma whip into three pieces. He turned around and flew up, smashing the spear at the Fire Judge's forehead.

Before his judge's pen fell, magic spells and magical weapons came bombarding him from all directions!
Under the Qingluo cover, the terrifying power was fluctuating endlessly. Just when the power to destroy the world was about to engulf Chen Shi and Hei Guo, a huge stone tablet smashed through the Qingluo cover, fell from the sky, and landed on the ground with a loud bang!
Rocks in the underworld were flying everywhere, and several ghost messengers were knocked backwards by the impact of the falling stone tablet!
The stone tablet fell right in front of Chen Shi, blocking the impact of the aftermath of the magic power for him!

Chen Shi originally planned to escape to the world of the living with Hei Guo to avoid the battle between ghosts and gods in the underworld. However, when he saw this stone tablet, he was stunned. He immediately gave up the idea of ​​escaping back to the world of the living and looked up along the huge stone tablet.

I saw that the stone tablet had a base, carved from granite, with a hard texture and polished very smoothly. A large square frame had been chiseled out on the surface of the tablet with a chisel. It should be a tombstone.

The name of the deceased is engraved in the frame. If the descendants are careful, they will also engrave the epitaph or the life story of the deceased on the monument.

At this moment, there was a new line of names carved on the tombstone.

"Yan Shiji was born in the year 6587 of the Jiajing reign and died on the fourth day of the sixth month of the year 6643 at the first quarter of the second hour."

Just as Chen Shi saw this, suddenly a powerful being from the Yan family who was in the Huanxu realm took Jia Yuan’s attack head-on. His body decayed, he vomited blood, and fell to the ground and died!

"Shiji!" The old man next to him cried out in grief.

Chen Shi was stunned: "Is the dead man Yan Shiji? The time of death is exactly the same as the time on the tombstone!"

He looked up along the tombstone and saw a big skinny hand with thick knuckles and long, rough fingers covered with calluses.

Looking upwards along the big hand, I saw an old man's face with wrinkles all over it.

The old man's face had been weathered by wind and rain, revealing his age and vicissitudes of life. His face was covered in the sky, appearing extremely huge.

"The old man in the quarry!" Chen Shi was shocked.

The people who were fighting also saw the fallen stone tablet and were all shocked, but their arrows were already on the strings and they had to shoot. They could not stop and could only continue fighting.

"Send some people to go to the mortal world and kill that old man!" the local judge said loudly.

Immediately, the masters of the Yan family returned to the world of the living.

There were tinkling sounds coming from the sky, like someone chiseling stones, and then an old voice came from above.

"Yan Shichuang was born in the year 6592 of the Jiajing reign and died on the fourth day of the sixth month in the year 6643 at the first quarter of the second hour."

The chiseling sounds suddenly stopped, and a huge stone tablet fell from the sky with a loud bang. The moment it hit the ground, another old man from the Yan family who was in the Huanxu realm screamed, blood gushed out of his seven orifices, and he died!
The chiseling sound was heard again.

The old man's voice in the air came again: "Yan Jing, born in the 6582nd year of the Jiajing reign, died on the 4th day of the 6th month of the 6643rd year at 1:00 pm."

Another stone tablet fell from the sky with a loud bang.

An old woman who had beaten Zhu Shun until he bled from all his seven orifices suddenly knelt straight on the ground, motionless, and her head dropped suddenly, she was dead!

"Go and kill him!" Sixth Uncle Yan Qinghu shouted.

The sound of chiseling rang out, and Yan Qinghu's face was ferocious. He didn't care about the three judges, and suddenly passed through the underworld and returned to the world of the living. In the moonlight, an old man was seen in the snow, with tombstones everywhere around him. He was swinging an axe and chisel, carving words on the tombstones.

"stop!"

Yan Qinghu activated his magical power, and in an instant all the snowflakes in the sky for a hundred miles stopped, and each snowflake turned into the sharpest blade and cut towards the old man!
This is the magical power recorded in the Yan Family Lingshan Hall Collection, Ice Heart Destroying Demons!
At this time, the old man had already carved a tombstone and recited in a low voice: "Yan Qinghu, born in the 6556th year of the Jiajing reign, died on the 6th month 4th day of the 6th month 6643 at 1:00 pm."

Yan Qinghu suddenly felt that all the vitality in his body was taken away, and his body aged and died in the blink of an eye.

"You are the tombstone carver among the six evil men, Du Yiran!"

He suddenly seemed to remember something, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he tried to walk towards the old man, his voice eager.

"The Book of Life and Death is in your hands! Give it to me—"

As soon as he said this, he lost all his strength and fell down.

His magical power suddenly went out of control and turned into a howling gale, carrying snowflakes all over the sky, and all its power was lost.

The old man ignored him, swung his axe and continued to carve the next stone tablet.

"Boom!"

Another stone tablet fell from the sky and landed in the underworld. Along with an old voice coming from the sky, a strong man from the Yan family died on the spot!
Everyone was horrified. Huo Pan shouted loudly and swung his whip towards the old man as he threw the stone tablet into the underworld!
An arc of light appeared behind the old man's head. In the arc of light, the huge hand of the soul was several miles wide and met the long whip of magma.

The old man's body shook slightly and he actually took the whip.

"Mahayana Realm!"

The judge was stern, he put away his whip and shouted, "Everyone, retreat immediately!"

He gathered up the remaining masters of the Yan family and rode away on the fire dragon.

Upon seeing this, Tupan and other Yinchai and Yinshuai dared not to fight and flew away!

The old man threw down another stone tablet, but Huo Pan had already led the Yan family out of the range of influence of the stone tablet, making the stone tablet ineffective.

The three judges, Soul Chaser, Sin and Sword Mountain, were covered in wounds and still a little dazed after recovering from the shock.

Chen Shi smiled and said, "Don't leave, the three of you. Wait here for me!"

He was about to return to the mortal world with Hei Guo when he saw the ineffective stone tablet. He rolled his eyes and said, "Judge Wang, please take good care of this stone tablet for me. Don't lose it."

Just as the soul-chasing judge Wang Fu was about to speak, Chen Shi had already rushed into the world of the living on his dog.

In the ice and snow, the old man left behind a stone tablet and disappeared without a trace.

Chen Shi immediately rushed to the quarry and soon arrived outside the quarry. He said loudly: "Chen Shi, grandson of Chen Yindu, wants to see Uncle Du!"

An old voice came from the quarry: "Didn't that bad guy Chen Yindu teach you? You should call me Grandpa Du! I'm not like Grandma Sha. She refuses to accept her age, but I do."

——The last of the five villains, and the strongest one besides Chen Yindu, the tombstone carver Du Yiran, finally appears! Old Du appears and asks for tickets
