I am devoted to the Tao

Chapter 491: The Underworld Moves, the Return of the Underworld Emperor

"found it."

Tai Huang shook his head up and down. "I asked many people, and finally learned from that guy Liangyi that the Xiantian Dao Palace fell from the river of time and landed in the imperial mausoleum."

"Imperial Mausoleum?"

Jiang Chuan frowned slightly: "This is a bit troublesome."

The Emperor of Heaven has thirty-three Dao Fruits. The Imperial Mausoleum is the place where the Emperor of Heaven's Dao fell. Even if only a part of the Dao Fruits are fused with it, it is equivalent to the fusion with the Dao Fruits of several Daluo!
If Jiang Chuan were asked to choose a dangerous place from among all the heavens and the worlds, he would definitely choose the Imperial Tomb without hesitation!

"By the way, Taoist Liangyi also said something to us."

A flash of reminiscence appeared in the eyes of the Purple Cloud Patriarch. "He said that the Xiantian Dao Palace's fall into the Emperor's Mausoleum might seem like a coincidence, but in reality, it was inevitable."

"inevitable."

In an instant, Jiang Chuan thought of a lot.

"The work of the Twin Saints? Or the Green Emperor?"

Tai Huang, Old Ancestor Ziyun and Rabbit did not speak.

After pondering for a moment, Jiang Chuan spoke again: "Whether it's the Twin Saints or the Azure Emperor, they all have to go to the Imperial Mausoleum in the end."

"Before you go to the Imperial Mausoleum, use the power given to you by the Green Emperor to go to the Imperial Mausoleum first." The rabbit reminded.

Jiang Chuan nodded, and with a thought, he directly started the love simulator.

[Ding! Simulation begins. Now randomly matching the host with a dating simulation partner.]

[Ding! Match successful.]

[The romantic partner for this simulated match is Fairy Huanrui, the reincarnation of Fairy Emperor Huanyun.]

"Fellow Daoist Huanrui has also reincarnated and returned?"

Jiang Chuan touched his chin and said, "The name Huanyun doesn't seem to be well-known. Is he not an Immortal Emperor in the Immortal Realm, or is he in a force established by the ancient Heavenly Court Immortal Gods like Tianshen Mountain?"

You didn't immediately set out for the Imperial Mausoleum. After all, it was too dangerous. More than one peak Immortal Emperor had perished there.

If you fail, then this simulation will be a complete failure.

Considering that it's still early for the two worlds to merge, you should plan to gain enlightenment for a while before leaving the Qingyuan World and heading for the Imperial Mausoleum.

[Take out the wooden box and continue to comprehend the Dao of Nothingness within it.]

A sixty years have passed in a flash. Your path of nothingness, while not making any progress at all, has not advanced much either. You are still a step or two away from the Absolute Beginning Realm.

[However, you also know that at your level, you are only one step away from true Daluo. If it were that easy to break through, all the great powers in the heavens and myriad realms would have already achieved Daluo.]

After another twenty years of contemplation, you set out for the Imperial Mausoleum with your cat, dog, and rabbit.

[When you step out of the Sekaitian Heaven, you will see flocks of flying boats flying out of the Qingyuan Realm.]

[You know these flying boats are carrying the mortals of the Qingyuan Realm. However, you think the speed of the Three Paths is a bit slow. Eighty years have passed since the Yaochi Immortal Meeting ended, and not all the mortals of the Qingyuan Realm have been relocated.]

【Take one step forward and you arrive at the Falling Sun Sea.】

[After the Heavenly Emperor fell, his body fell along with the fragments of the thirty-three heavens, smashing through the myriad realms and the underworld, landing beneath the underworld.]

If the universe is considered a giant pavilion, then the Imperial Mausoleum is undoubtedly at the very bottom.

[You enter the underworld and immediately feel a gaze directed towards you.]

[This shouldn't surprise you. Your current strength, even without deliberately revealing your aura, is like the sun in the night. Not to mention, you also suppressed the son of the Hades, the former Lord of the Underworld.]

[If the many gods of the underworld weren't afraid of the Green Emperor, I'm afraid some would have already attacked you.]

After flying billions of miles towards the Imperial Mausoleum, you heard a familiar voice.

"Wuxian Emperor, please stay."

Jiang Chuan looked in the direction of the sound and saw three streaks of light cutting through the sky and heading towards him tens of millions of miles away.

The stream of light crossed tens of millions of miles in an instant, landed in front of him, and turned into three men.

The leader was a man with red hair, a rough face, holding a halberd, looking powerful and majestic.

Jiang Chuan clasped his fists and said, "I never thought that Daoist Fellow Chi Yuan would return after turning the calamity around."

"It's only been a few years since you returned from your tribulation, and you haven't even recovered a third of your former cultivation. Compared to the Immortal Emperor, you are now even worse off."

The God of Red Origin smiled and said, "I came to the underworld to visit my old Taoist friends. I happened to hear Taoist Wu Guang say that you, the Immortal Emperor, had descended into the underworld. So I came with him and Taoist Chen Xin to look for you."

"I have heard of the names of Godless Light and God Dust Heart for a long time."

As Jiangchuan spoke, he looked at the two gods on both sides of the Akahara God.

The Lightless God was wearing a dark golden robe, and the divine wheel made of the Eternal Silence Divine Iron was like a divine moon floating behind his head, making his already handsome face look even more sacred and otherworldly.

The God of Dust Heart wore a white jade crown, a white robe inlaid with gorgeous gold edges, and held a folding fan in his hand. He looked like a young master in a secular dynasty. However, the only flaw was that there seemed to be a hint of yin energy between the eyebrows of the God of Dust Heart, making him look a little feminine and lacking in masculinity.

"Wang!"

Tai Huang yelled, "Jiang Chuan, these three guys are obviously looking like weasels paying New Year's greetings to chickens with no good intentions."

"Dead dog!"

The face of the Lightless God darkened: "You and that damn cat and rabbit stole the treasures from my palace, and I haven't settled the score with you yet!"

Jiangchuan suddenly felt overwhelmed.

Why do I always encounter cats, dogs and rabbits wherever I go?

Ziyun Patriarch denied it repeatedly: "We are not, we don't have it, don't tell me."

The Lightless God snorted coldly, "Do you think that if you don't admit it, I won't know if it was you who did it?"

"You must have something to talk to Jiang Chuan about, so you guys go ahead and do your thing."

Tai Huang came behind Jiang Chuan and pushed him forward.

"Actually, there's nothing wrong with us looking for the Immortal Emperor." Divine Venerable Chen Xin glanced at Tai Huang and continued, "To be honest, it's not a big deal, it's just a reminder. His Majesty the Dark Emperor didn't really die, and the Immortal Emperor relied on his supernatural powers to suppress the Qingshi Divine Venerable. If His Majesty the Dark Emperor returns in the future, I'm afraid the Immortal Emperor will also suffer."

Jiang Chuan laughed and said, "If the Hades Emperor doesn't return, I'm afraid no one will give me a large ransom."

The Lightless God was surprised: "How dare the Immortal Emperor demand a ransom from the Five Emperors? His courage is truly terrifying!"

The Red Plains God was also startled and spoke hastily, "Wuxian Emperor, joking aside, if you really dare to do this, I'm afraid that annihilation of both body and soul would be the least of your punishment!"

As gods in heaven, no one knows better than them how powerful and terrifying the Five Emperors are!
Tai Huang poked his dog head out from behind Jiang Chuan and said, "When Jiang Chuan suppressed the Qingshi God Lord before, you didn't show up. But now you show up. Did the Hades Emperor give you a decree?"

Divine Venerable Chen Xin replied, "The Hades Emperor has not issued any decree, but half a century ago, the origin of the underworld shook."

There has only been one ruler of the underworld throughout history!
That is the Hades!
The unusual changes in the origin of the underworld can only mean one thing: the Hades is still alive!

"Earlier, the Underworld Gods were unsure whether the Dark Emperor was truly alive or dead, so they didn't dare to offend the Green Emperor. But as the saying goes, the heart of an emperor is like the sea. If the Dark Emperor really returns and knows that they are indifferent to my suppression of the Green History God, I'm afraid..."

After figuring out why Divine Venerable Dust Heart and Divine Venerable Wuguang had come, Jiang Chuan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Do you two Daoists want to help Divine Venerable Qingshi escape from his predicament?"

"When gods fight, mortals suffer. We don't want to be enemies with the Green Emperor either."

The Lightless God sighed and said, "But there are some things we can't do anything about. After all, we are Gods under the command of the Dark Emperor."

"The direction that the Immortal Emperor is heading should be the Imperial Tomb."

Divine Venerable Chen Xin spoke again: "We are all immortal gods in the heavenly court. If we can avoid damaging the harmony, we should do so. If the Wuxian Emperor and his group are still unwilling to release the Emperor's son after visiting the Imperial Mausoleum, then don't blame us."

You watched Chiyuan Shenzun and the other two leave. You knew full well that Chenxin Shenzun planned to wait until your visit to the Imperial Mausoleum was over before returning to look for you. It wasn't because he truly wanted to give you time to think, but because he felt you wouldn't be able to escape the Imperial Mausoleum unscathed.

【By then, they can reduce casualties when facing the injured you.】

You didn't pay attention to the plans of the God of Dust Heart. At this moment, your mind was occupied with another matter: the strange movement of the origin of the underworld.

If the origin of the underworld is truly due to the Underworld Emperor's unusual movements, then this can only mean one thing.

[After the ancient war, the Hades fell into a deep sleep due to severe injuries, not due to his demise.]

[If the Dark Emperor is in deep sleep and not dead, then what about the Eternal Emperor?]

[Like the Green Emperor, both of them are Daluo from the Heavenly Court who have returned. What will happen? ]

[Helping Princess Yunyao attain enlightenment? Or is there something else going on?]

Considering that the immortals and gods of the Celestial Court who perished in the ancient battles against the Celestial Court, such as the Spiritual Immortal Emperor and the Red Original God, have already been reincarnated and returned, you can imagine that the Green Emperor's plan must be something more than simple!

After a moment of contemplation, you continue to lead the cat, dog, and rabbit towards the imperial mausoleum.

[After crossing billions of miles of mountains and rivers in the underworld, you finally arrived at the Emperor Burial Abyss.]

[The Emperor Burial Abyss sounds like a deep abyss, but in reality it is a massive hole left behind by the corpse of the Emperor of Heaven and the fragments of the heavens smashing through the underworld.]

The enormous hole seemed to be formed by the disappearance of dozens or even hundreds of worlds into thin air. You couldn't even see the edge at a glance.

[One after another, true immortals, immortal kings, and gods from the immortal world, the Buddhist world, the demon world, and the underworld flew in.]

As you step into the Burial Emperor Abyss, the murderous intent in the void grows heavier the deeper you go. After five million miles, you feel the murderous intent in the void has reached a terrifying level. Even a True Immortal would have their body shattered and their spirit shattered if enveloped by it for too long.

【At the same time, a strange world appears before your eyes. 】

"Is this the imperial tomb?"

Jiang Chuan looked at the world in front of him.

Sacred mountains stand like gods above the earth, and great rivers flow like surging dragons above the earth, dividing it into parts. Colorful divine mists diffuse and illuminate the sky.

The entire world is more like a sacred mountain and fairyland than a tomb of a Daluo.

"The Imperial Mausoleum may look like heaven, but it's actually very dangerous. Look, danger is coming."

Tai Huang raised his paw and pointed to the east. Jiang Chuan looked into the distance and saw a group of heavenly generals wearing purple-gold armor and holding long spears walking out of the sacred mountain and beginning to patrol the earth.

These generals are sacred and powerful, but if you look closely, you will find that they are nothing but a pile of bones!

"At least they have the skeletons of Immortal Kings. With the armor and weapons on their bodies, defeating an Immortal King like Senior Sister shouldn't be a problem."

Jiang Chuan looked at the group of Heavenly Generals. "The periphery is so dangerous, no wonder it can even cause the fall of a peak Immortal Emperor. Tai Huang, can you give us a rough estimate of where the Xiantian Dao Palace is located?"

Tai Huang nodded. "The Immortal Emperors of the myriad heavens and worlds divided the Imperial Mausoleum into nine areas. In addition to the outer areas and the core area where the Emperor's body is rumored to be, there are seven other major areas: the Sea of ​​Blood, Hanging Moon Mountain, White Bone Cave, Ghost Valley, Myriad Destruction Land, Feathered Earth, and Thunder Tribulation Lake."

"Of these seven areas, the Sea of ​​Blood, the White Bone Cave, the Valley of Ghosts, and the Hanging Moon Mountain are the most explored by cultivators who come to the Imperial Mausoleum. These four places are filled with the corpses of a large number of immortals, gods, and demons, and immortals, Buddhas, gods, and demons often find treasures here. If the Xiantian Dao Palace fell into these four places, it would have been discovered by cultivators long ago."

"The remaining three places, the Land of Myriad Destruction, the Feathered Earth, and the Thunder Tribulation Lake, are all suspected to be transformed from the Dao Fruit of the Heavenly Emperor. They are fraught with danger. The Immortal Emperor Brahma Seal, who reached the peak of the Thirteenth Realm, perished in the Land of Myriad Destruction. Therefore, not many Immortal Emperors have ventured deep into these places. If the Xiantian Dao Palace is still in the Emperor's Mausoleum, it is most likely to be in these three places."

"Isn't it possible that it is in the core area where the Emperor's body is?" asked the rabbit.

Tai Huang's face was solemn: "It's better not to be here, otherwise, among all the heavens and myriad worlds, I'm afraid there are only two or three people who can help Jiang Chuan take out the Xiantian Dao Palace."

[You hope that the Xiantian Dao Palace will not fall into the core area.]

After discussing it with Tai Huang, you've decided to begin your search in the Feathered Land. While the Feathered Land has seen the fall of numerous Thirteenth Realm powerhouses, the danger is significantly less compared to the Ten Thousand Destructions Land and the Thunder Tribulation Lake, both of which have seen the fall of more than one peak-Thirteenth Realm Immortal Emperor. Therefore, you plan to begin your search in the Feathered Land.

[Although the outskirts of the Imperial Mausoleum can strangle many Immortal Kings, and even beings who have just entered the Immortal Emperor realm, it is unlikely to pose a threat to you.]

[You manipulated time and space, easily leaping over patrolling celestial generals and passing through the outer perimeter of the Imperial Mausoleum.]

[Flying along the perimeter of the Imperial Mausoleum, you will need to cross the Sea of ​​Blood before entering the Feathered Land.]

[The sea of ​​blood is immense. In your perception, the entire sea, comparable to dozens of worlds, is made of the blood of immortals, gods, and demons.]

[Looking through this sea of ​​blood, you once again lament the brutality of the battle in Heaven.]

At the same time, your mind conjures up images of the mortals forced to leave the Qingyuan Realm. You feel helpless. No matter what the Qing Emperor plots, as long as the immortals and gods of Heaven return and war breaks out again, billions of mortals will inevitably suffer.

You don't want to see this, but you're powerless to stop it. You once again feel the insignificance of your own strength, and your desire to achieve enlightenment becomes even stronger.

[As you crossed the sea of ​​blood, you sensed your presence. Many demons, transformed from the corpses of gods and demons, rushed towards you from the sea of ​​blood, attempting to devour you, but you dealt with them one by one.]

[Finally, after defeating dozens of demons transformed from resentful corpses, you successfully reached the Feathered Land.]
