The sermon begins with the dragon and the horse

Chapter 382 The River of Life and Death

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Shen, for your mercy, and the poor monk resigns!" Jin Chanzi turned into a golden light and left with a gloomy expression.

"See you again." Shen Ma nodded in greeting.

In front, dozens of stone pillars stood side by side, towering above the clouds, exuding an inexplicable power.

There are various marks on the stone pillars.A round of the sun is rising slowly, and the heavens are roaring continuously. This is the mark of the Sun Emperor.In Huaxian Pond, a green lotus swayed with a faint fairy glow.

On Mount Sumeru, the sound of Zen is faint, and the ten thousand Buddhas ascended to heaven, representing Amitabha.A imprint of a grimace, smiling but not smiling, crying but not crying, this is the life of the ruthless emperor.

A long stick pierced the sky, causing the world to cry and howl, telling the story of Dou Zhan Shenghuang's domineering.The chaotic bell ripples, affecting the past and the present, which has no beginning.

From ancient times to the present, many great emperors and emperors have left their marks here. Unfortunately, the long years have passed, and it is difficult for the world to reproduce their heroic appearance.

"How many emperors and emperors throughout the ages have been buried in the years. One day in the future, will I do the same? In the future..." Shen Ma walked around the pillar, his heart was greatly touched, thinking of what happened in the long river of time, inexplicably flustered.

The gate of the emperor's gate was closed tightly, and there were no creatures guarding it, making it very quiet.The huge city wall seems to be embedded in the void on the other side, making it difficult to see clearly.

"Tap..."

After crossing the stone pillar, Shen Ma walked to the gate. With a sound of "嗡", a huge stone tablet manifested in front of the eyes, and a trembling imperial prestige pervaded, breathtaking.

The stele is huge, like a small star, and its front is like a mirror, crystal clear, which can reflect people's shadows.

"Boss, the time for the opening of the Ultimate Emperor's Road has not yet come. We need to wait for most of the testers in this life to appear. Before that, as long as the monks who come here can engrave their names. When the Emperor's Gate is opened in the future, no matter where they are, there will be a The Divine Sect welcomes them." Sha Zhizhu said.

The nomination of the crystal monument represents a kind of supreme glory, and they are all peerless arrogance, a strong man on an ancient road.

"In the early days? Is this person from the ancient mine in the early days?" Shen Ma looked at the first name on the tablet, feeling puzzled.

The word "Ancestral Beginning" circulates a terrible Taoist rhyme, suppressing the Quartet.

"Hey! Jiang Taixu! The God King in white has also come here, and he has lived a second life." Shen Ma changed his color slightly, showing shock.I think that when he was in Zishan, the king of gods taught him the secret of fighting characters.

The ninth name is Jin Chanzi, and the next one is blank, and there are still many Tianjiao who have not yet arrived.

"Zheng!"

Shen Ma patted it up with a hoof, and carved his name on the coffin: Dutian!
"Little Mo, your physical body is not weaker than that of the junior Great Sage, try to see if you can leave your name." He said.

"Ok."

Malphite has reached the great perfection of the holy king, and he is only half a step away from entering the great holy realm.I saw him stepping forward, pressing his big hand on the crystal tablet with a "bang", and the time suddenly flourished, leaving behind the three characters of "Malphite".

"It's time to go back and see old friends, let's go." Shen Ma looked at Beidou in the distance, his eyes were a little softer.

"Boss, should we still follow the ancient path of the human race?" Sha Zhizhu asked.

"No, take the ancient road of the Yaozu." As a member of the Yaozu, Shen Ma has never experienced the ancient road of the Yaozu, so he decided to take a trip and find the mother of the little white elephant.

"The ancient road of the monster race is adjacent to the ancient road of the human race, in that direction." Sha Zhizhu pointed to another starry sky and said.

The vast starry sky and the brilliant stars hide endless mysteries, waiting for one strong person after another to explore.

The ancient road of the Yaozu has a long history, and it has existed longer than the ancient road of the human race, but the Yaozu is not as united as the human race, and now there are only a few main roads left, and the others are deserted.

Shen Ma has been to the last city of the Yaozu, tasted the scenery of the ancient city of the Yaozu, and fought with the Tianjiao of the Yaozu, blood stained the starry sky, and shocked the ancient roads.

On this day, he came to the Weeping Blood City of the Monster Clan. It was rumored that the blood of Emperor Zhun had once stained this place, and it still carries an overwhelming coercion. It is difficult for non-strong people to enter.

"Haha, what a young hero! You have been born out of my demon clan in this life, so I can continue the glory of Emperor Qing." Just entering the city, an old man with white beard and hair and a flushed face greeted him with great enthusiasm. The lord of the city, the old man Longgui, is a strong man at the peak of the Great Saint.

"The city lord killed me. I'm still young and I have a long way to go in the future. No one can tell." Although Shen Ma wanted to say that you have good vision, old boy, on the surface he was still very humble and open-minded.

"Dig the Taoist ancient well, enter the tomb of Emperor Fuxi, seize the Lingbao emperor's soldiers, and defeat all the strong, one by one, who else in the world can rival you. The old man is optimistic about you." Long Gui The old man stroked his white beard and said cheerfully.

"Thank you for the compliment from the city lord. There is something I need to ask the city lord for advice." Shen Ma laughed.

"But it's okay to say." The old man Longgui said boldly.

"I have a friend's mother who is the great sage Prajna under the seat of Sakyamuni. Her body is a white elephant. She set foot on the ancient road of stars thousands of years ago. I wonder if she has been here before?" Shen Ma asked.

"Thousands of years ago, White Elephant... I remember this old man. Back then, I had a discussion with her. I was also at the peak of the Great Sage, and I benefited a lot. It's a pity that I still can't take that step." Master Longgui looked sad, Sigh again and again.

"City Lord, I don't know where she will go after that?" Shen Ma asked hurriedly.

"Where are you going? After leaving that day, there was no trace. I don't know about her... no, she asked me about the location of the River of Life and Death, and she probably went there." Old Man Longgui said.

"The River of Life and Death? Where is that place?" Shen Ma asked in confusion.

"Walking through the Anxi Road and crossing the River of Life and Death, the world of mortals will be empty. It is a forbidden area on the ancient road of the Yaozu. Throughout the ages, countless powerful people have been lost in it. It is rumored that there is a great horror inside." The pupils of the old man Longgui tightened, revealing The slightest fear.

"Uh uh, didn't the ancient emperor break through?" Shen Ma asked.

"Of course there is. The demon emperor Xue Yueqing once left a comment: the land of nothingness. Gradually, it became a forbidden zone. Later, for some reason, rumors spread there that there was an opportunity to become emperor Zhun, attracting a large number of life-spanning generals. Great saint.

It's just that, without exception, they are all lost in it. "The old man Longgui shook his head, melancholy and helpless.

"A place where even the great sage would get lost, trouble." Shen Ma whispered.

"You are in the prime of your life now, don't be overwhelmed and look for that illusory opportunity." The old man Longgui kindly reminded him.

"Ahem, that's natural. I still know how much I weigh." Shen Ma laughed.

"Let's go, have a drink with the old man."

……

After staying in Weeping Blood City for three days, Shen Ma set off again, but he did not fly towards the Big Dipper Starfield.Instead, he changed direction and went to the River of Life and Death. He had found out the location in the past few days.

If he didn't go there himself, he still wouldn't give up.

After traveling millions of miles, Shen Ma and the others came to a desolate star field, which was very remote.Looking around, there are broken stars everywhere, the light is dim, and there is no life.

Here, even the vitality is almost gone, as if you have come to the edge of the universe.

In the starry sky, there are several huge stone tablets suspended, the monuments are mottled, and the ancient characters engraved are faintly visible: the river of life and death, do not break into it.

"Is this the River of Life and Death? Where is the river?" Shen Ma opened his five-color eyes, but he could only see a deserted star field.

"It seems that you have to go all the way to see the reality. You wait here, and I will come when I go." He said.

"Boss, there is a big horror inside, let's wait until we are stronger." Sha Zhizhu said worriedly.

"I have emperor soldiers to protect me, don't worry. If I haven't come out for a long time, don't be stupid and rush in."

As soon as the voice fell, Shen Ma resolutely stepped into the restricted area.

Meteorites are in pieces, and rocks are lying horizontally. This star field is like a garbage dump, chaotic.He walked forward step by step, cautiously.

quiet!
Very quiet!
Hardly any sound can be heard!
The more you walk in, the more weird the breath is, like a ghost hell, but also like a holy land in the fairy world. The blend of these two contradictory breaths makes Shen Ma very uneasy.

"Boss, where have you been?"

In the eyes of Malphite and Sha Zhizhu, as soon as Shen Ma entered the restricted area, it seemed that he had passed through a layer of space barrier and disappeared without a trace.

But no matter how they call, they still can't see Shen Ma.

"What should I do?" Sha Zhizhu was extremely anxious.

"Wait." Moffitt seemed very calm, firmly believing that Shenma could return safely.

The center of the restricted area is like an eternal black hole, devouring everything.After going five thousand miles deep, Shen Ma heard the sound of rushing water, the sound was urgent, like a drum beating in his heart.

"puff!"

Caught off guard, Shen Ma spurted out a mouthful of blood.

"Emperor?" He felt a power comparable to that of Emperor Zhun, and cold sweat broke out on his back, terrified.

Looking back, he was stunned and stunned. The broken meteorites were gone, and Malphite and Sha Zhizhu were nowhere to be seen. .

In a trance, the starry sky and meteorites disappeared, and a continent appeared under the feet, with broken mountains and weeds.There is no sound of insects or beasts in this place, only the sound of rushing water.

In the far sky, a big river, pitch black as ink, billowing with black mist, billowing with cloudy air, flows from an unknown place.

The other river, as white as jade, is crystal clear and full of vitality.

Two rivers with conflicting attributes unexpectedly merged together, and the chaotic air steamed up, piercing through the sky, sending out waves of terrifying sound waves, which made people tremble.

There are also some Qionglou Yuyu located on both sides of the river. Although they are dilapidated, they still look extremely magnificent and majestic.

"This is the River of Life and Death! It actually flows in the void, life and death, yin and yang, the so-called River of Life and Death is actually formed by the condensed energy of the sun and the sun." Shen Ma opened his five-color eyes and caught the traces of the Dao law.

The yin and yang are strong and weak, and the yin and yang are in harmony, and the world is respected.These are the two original Dao principles between heaven and earth, which are opposite and complementary, and contain the highest profound meaning.

In front of the River of Life and Death, Shen Ma felt as if his soul and body were out of control, following the ups and downs and turbulence of the river, he couldn't help himself.

"Free Ultimate Instinct!"

He was afraid that taking out the imperial soldiers rashly would have unpredictable consequences, so he tried his best to adjust his state to adapt to this fluctuation.Think of it as a kind of tempering, tempering the soul and body.

Slowly, his spirit stopped trembling, and his body calmed down.

"Tap..."

He stepped forward, wanting to take a closer look at the River of Life and Death, but was surprised to find that there was a thick layer of ashes under his feet, several feet deep.

He opened the soil layer and looked, his face suddenly turned pale, and his heart felt hairy. It was the skeleton of a great saint-level creature, and there was still a terrifying aura.

Looking around, the place covered by ashes is thousands of miles away. One can imagine how many people died here.

"How did they die?"

With doubts, Shen Ma cautiously approached the River of Life and Death.However, the closer he was to the river, the louder the sound of the water flowed, making him tremble.Coupled with the chaotic fog rising from the confluence of the two rivers, it is very difficult to get close.

"Open the door, open the door of death, the hexagram of the universe, reverse yin and yang!"

With a soft chirp, Shen Ma opened the gate of yin and yang in his body. He once integrated the profound meaning of yin and yang in the last section of the Fuxi Emperor River, and also tempered the qi of yin and yang.

The avenue is derived from yin and yang, and the Qi of Taiyin and Taiyin is the tangible embodiment of the avenue between heaven and earth, the manifestation of rules, the cycle of life and death, and the complementarity of yin and yang.

"Passing the road of rest, crossing the river of life and death, the world of mortals will be empty." The words of the old man Longgui kept echoing in his mind, and he was entangled in his heart.

"I've come here, I really don't want to cross the river. What's more, I have the emperor's soldiers to protect me!" He let out a foul breath, and finally decided to cross the river.

"drink!"

A loud shout sounded, and raging flames ignited on his body, which was a vision derived from surging blood.Every time he took a step, the flame on his body was extinguished.

The terrifying chaotic mist stained his body, constantly corroding his spirit.

"Life and death, yin and yang, chaos, Tai Chi..."

Shen Ma fell into a strange state of enlightenment, and he was using the energy of the sun and the sun to help him perfect his secret art.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, he began to evolve the Yin-Yang Sword, and a Yin-Yang diagram appeared behind him. The sword diagram rotated, and the power of the sun and the sun permeated, colliding with chaotic energy.

"Six Paths of Samsara Fist!"

Six black holes emerged in the void, filled with the ancient breath of reincarnation, full of the mysteries of life and death.

"Kunpeng Treasure Technique!"

Sometimes he transforms into Kun, sometimes into Peng, and the exchange of Kun and Peng is also a manifestation of Yin and Yang.

Finally, all kinds of magical powers subsided, and a picture of Taiji emerged behind Shenma, which was magnificent, covering the sky and the sun, covering the entire continent.

Immediately afterwards, the yin and yang qi in the river of life and death evaporated and merged into the Taiji diagram, and a terrifying destructive aura filled every inch of space.At the same time, there was a breath of life, full of vigor.

"boom!"

The world shook violently, as if it had been blasted.A huge beam of light rushed out from the confluence of the river of life and the river of death, and the terrifying source of power spread out, causing the earth to tremble, and terrifying cracks appeared on the ground.

Shen Ma was not affected, because the Taiji diagram behind him resolved this fluctuation.

When the light dissipated, a bridge manifested at the confluence of the River of Life and Death...
