The Eternal World
C315 On Life and Death
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" The Great Strength Ghost King's blood-curdling screeches resounded throughout the courtyard.
He struggled crazily in the fire, the Yin Qi on his body quickly dispersing.
"Hu!" Zhang Chao could also clearly feel that it was not only his elemental energy that was being consumed, but his life force as well!
"Zhang Chao, enough, stop, are you trying to kill him? Are we going to die or live? " Seeing that, Eggy hurriedly shouted on the side, "Ah, that's not right. He is not alive … I want to ask you, do you want to destroy it in body and spirit? "
"That's right!" Only now did Zhang Chao finally regain his senses. He could feel, when he used this Treadmill, he seemed to have become one with the world. At that time, he was not simply Zhang Chao, but he was a representative of the Heavenly Dao!
Thus, the Heavenly Law would not stop until it had been completely wiped out.
Fortunately, Eggy had warned him. Otherwise, he really would have caused the Great Strength Ghost King's soul to scatter and turn into a wisp of smoke!
Immediately after, he hurriedly retracted his hand, and stopped the first move of the Treadmill that he had executed halfway.
At the same time, the flow of his longevity ceased.
After making a rough estimate, because he had the initial control of the Treadmill, after using half of it, his lifespan did not run out too much. Compared to when he used it initially, he did not have a lifespan of a hundred years. This time, he only lost sixty years, which was already considered quite good.
After using the Treadmill, Zhang Chao's body felt as though it had been hollowed out in an instant. His entire being was exhausted to the extreme, and the instant his feet touched the ground, his body became unsteady, and he staggered a few times, nearly falling down to the ground.
"I say, are you alright?" Eggy hurriedly went forward to support Zhang Chao. Seeing Zhang Chao's pale face, with his head covered in sweat, she could not help but ask worriedly.
"It's nothing, I just used up too much energy. I can recover after a short rest!" Zhang Chao shook his head, then pointed at the Great Strength Ghost King who was still engulfed in flames, whose struggles had become extremely powerless: "Quickly, look at how he's doing, don't kill him!"
"Alright!" Eggy quickly raised her hand and released a wisp of cold air, extinguishing the flames on Great Strength Ghost King's body and dispersing the black smoke.
At this time, Great Strength Ghost King was half-kneeling on the ground, his entire body still emitting smoke, as he continuously gasped for air.
The golden mask on his face had been knocked off, revealing a face that was full of age. Thick eyebrows, ringed eyes, and an eagle's nose were extended. It was a large face in all directions.
He resentfully glared at Zhang Chao and Eggy. He tried to stand up three times, but after using up most of his strength for half a day, he was still unable to do so.
"Great Strength Ghost King, you lost!" Zhang Chao said.
"I really didn't expect that... You. He can actually use a Divine Skill! " Great Strength Ghost King clenched his teeth and said: "But with your cultivation, using such a method, it's impossible for you to be safe and sound. You must have paid a huge price, right?"
"Maybe!" Zhang Chao shrugged his shoulders: "Great Strength Ghost King, I originally didn't want to go to such a state with you, but only in this way can I have a way to break through. You are already severely injured, and don't even have the strength to stand up, do you still want to continue resisting?"
"Hmph, the victor is the king and the loser is the thief. Since this king has lost to you, then there's nothing much to say. If you want me to kill you, just do as you say!" With a cold snort, the Great Strength Ghost King sat crossed legged on the ground.
"I say, Zhang Chao, when did you learn things like divine skills? This is no ordinary method! " Eggy whispered into Zhang Chao's ear, and asked in surprise.
"I also do not know that this is a divine skill. Speaking of which, isn't a divine skill just a high level combat skill? "Even if it's used, there's nothing strange about it, right?" Zhang Chao said as his mouth twitched.
"There's nothing to be surprised about?" Eggy widened her eyes. "Ignorance is such a blessing!"
"F * ck you! You're the one who's ignorant! If you have anything to fart, hurry up and let it out!" Zhang Chao glared at Eggy.
"Damn, how vulgar!" Eggy smacked her lips a few times and said, "Indeed, according to a normal understanding, divine skills are indeed upgraded versions of battle skills, but … This is not something that an average person can casually learn to use! "
"Only those that have opened the gates of heaven are qualified to comprehend their own divine skills. Therefore, divine skills cannot be learned and have no laws. These things are generally the most suitable for cultivators to learn their own methods. Furthermore, to put it bluntly, every divine skill is unique!"
Either that or you comprehended it yourself, so it's completely suitable for you to use. Of course, the possibility of that is completely zero, your cultivation has just reached the early stage of the Yuan Dan Stage, and you are still far from being able to comprehend the Divine Techniques by yourself! "Su Yun said in a low voice.
"Either that or it's a coincidence. There are many aspects where the godly skill happens to have the same attribute as your physique. Of course, this possibility is not non-existent!"
"As far as I know, there are some ancient powers who would accept disciples, and among some of their disciples, there are some who are very similar to the ancient powers themselves, so they might be taught a divine skill exclusive to that disciple. However, whether that disciple can learn it, or use it, is unknown!"
"How is this possible?" Zhang Chao scratched his head in confusion.
This《 Treadmill》 was sold to him at a high price by a sloppy-looking old man who had transformed into a willow tree, but he couldn't see any exclusive method.
Moreover, he did not spend too much effort on comprehending it. It was just that his cultivation was too low, and the "Treadmill" cost him a large amount of longevity, which was why he barely used it.
But it had to be said that he had mastered the entire process of《 Treadmill》 without any obstacles and had easily learned it!
Could it be that his physique and that slovenly old man's physiques were very similar?
That's not right.
Zhang Chao felt that this《 Treadmill》 was not the dirty old man's method.
According to what Eggy said, about this "Treadmill" … What a mystery!
"F * ck, I was wondering why《 Treadmill》 was so abnormal, its power was terrifying to the point that it seemed to be able to destroy the heavens and earth. So it's actually a godly technique! F * ck, this old man knows how to use his divine abilities. Although the price is enormous, this technique … This is the strongest attack from an ancient almighty being! " However, Zhang Chao was also a little proud of himself. This godly technique was indeed the strongest trump card that he needed to fight opponents above his level.
After some rough calculations, based on his current cultivation base, his lifespan should not have died if he were to squander it a few times.
When he thought up to here, he calmed himself down and then said to the Great Strength Ghost King, "Don't worry, the two of us aren't here to target the people from your Underworld. Even though we defeated your subordinates, they didn't die, right?"
Hearing that, Great Strength Ghost King looked around.
Indeed, although the thirteen Ghost Generals under him had been knocked to the ground, and they looked like they'd fainted, they hadn't been killed.
This was because they were already ghosts and didn't have any physical bodies. If they were killed, they would completely disappear without leaving behind any corpses.
Looking at those Messengers, they were only frozen by the ice but did not die from it. Within the ice layer, there was still a trace of Yin Qi flowing out from their bodies.
"What on earth do you want?" Great Strength Ghost King pondered for a moment, then asked.
"To tell you the truth, we were originally cultivators of the Disenchanting Continent, and were subordinate to the War God Academy. Because a person called Dong Long wanted to stir up trouble, he spread the war and danger to our Disenchanting Continent, and so in order to fight him, all of us from the War God Academy went to the Chaotic Continent under the leadership of the Principal!" Zhang Chao squatted in front of Great Strength Ghost King and explained.
"Who knows? For unknown reasons, a change suddenly happened in the Chaotic Continent, the entire world was about to collapse, a few craters in the ground caused us to be unable to resist falling down. The moment I opened my eyes, I was already on the other side of the Sante River!"
"Therefore, I took great pains to cross the river and barged into the gates of hell in order to find my fellow sect members. Earlier, I heard from you that some of my fellow sect members were suppressed by you guys, so I wanted to ask you where you can find them!"
"This king has also heard about the matters concerning the Chaotic Continent, but this is a heavenly tribulation that is destined to happen in the underworld. However, this king doesn't care what the reason is, nor what kind of person you are, as long as you enter the Underworld, no matter if you are alive or dead, you will be restricted by the The Law of the Nether!" Great Strength Ghost King said in a low voice: "This is the country of the dead, coming here is equivalent to death, it is impossible to go back!"
"You living people, relying on your body that is not yet dead, you want to stir up the wind and rain in the underworld, to disturb the The Law of the Nether, just this point, is already a heavy crime!"
"What?" When Zhang Chao heard that, his pupils constricted. He immediately grabbed onto Great Strength Ghost King's clothes, "You actually don't understand reason that much in this Underworld?"
"There is nothing reasonable to talk about. The Underworld has always been impartial. It doesn't matter what it is. It only concerns life and death!" Great Strength Ghost King disdainfully replied.
"What a good reason! I don't ask you for a reason, just a matter of life and death!" The corner of Zhang Chao's eyes twitched, and then he squeezed out a word from between his teeth, "Alright, then I won't ask you anymore, and even more so, won't make things difficult for you. I just want to know, where did you send my fellow sect members off to!"
"Of course, after being judged, they fell into the various hells!" Great Strength Ghost King sneered, "You arrogant cultivators, you have killed countless people in your life. Everyone's hands were stained with blood, so you have to go to hell with no exceptions!"
"However, hell is not their final destination. After serving their sentences, they will be asked to stay in the Underworld if anyone wants to stay, they can apply to become a ghost servant. If not, they can also continue to be reincarnated!"
If you are sent to hell, there will be no chance for you to return the favor, so just give up. Moreover, if you mess with this duke's residence, your fate will be the same as theirs.
He struggled crazily in the fire, the Yin Qi on his body quickly dispersing.
"Hu!" Zhang Chao could also clearly feel that it was not only his elemental energy that was being consumed, but his life force as well!
"Zhang Chao, enough, stop, are you trying to kill him? Are we going to die or live? " Seeing that, Eggy hurriedly shouted on the side, "Ah, that's not right. He is not alive … I want to ask you, do you want to destroy it in body and spirit? "
