Chapter 696: The Red-robed Ghost Emperor Calls for Husband
Suying Palace, the tenth hall of Yama.
The Chakravartin stood high above, examining the white-haired general below with a stern gaze, and slammed the gavel with a sound like thunder.
"Xue Li, do you admit your guilt?"
Xue Rengui was wearing shackles, his white hair fluttering in the wind, his pair of tiger eyes piercing with a fierce light as he glared at the almighty Chakravartin.
"What crime have I committed?"
"I, Xue Rengui, have fought all my life, loyal to the emperor and defended my country. I have more than 20 knife wounds on my body. When I was protecting my country, where were you ghosts and gods?"
The King of the Wheels showed a trace of sneer and said, "Those Turkic, Korean, and Tibetan people who died in your hands, weren't they also sinful?"
Xue Rengui laughed loudly and said in a disdainful voice: "Why, you only allow the bandits to invade our Tang Dynasty, burn, kill and plunder, but you don't allow me to raise an army to attack other countries and wipe out the barbarians?"
If the enemy can go there, I can go there too!
He was a man who had followed Emperor Taizong, the Imperial Master, and Li Jing. He had fought his way out of that glorious and iron-blooded era, and had experienced the test of blood and fire. Even when facing the legendary Yama, he was not afraid at all.
The Wheel King snorted coldly and said, "You are good at making excuses, but there is one thing I have to punish you for."
He picked up a book and said, "This is the Book of Life and Death. It says that you should have died in the second year of Yongchun, but now it is the second year of Tianshou, and you have secretly lived for nine years. Xue Rengui, do you know your crime?"
After hearing this, Xue Rengui laughed out loud, with a look of reminiscence in his eyes and a proud voice.
"I once followed the national teacher to destroy the Turks, and I have some friendship with him. He gave me a magic pill, which extended my life. What's the problem?"
“This is a big problem!”
The Wheel King slapped his fist and said angrily, "No matter who you are, you cannot violate the laws of the underworld and disrupt the order. Otherwise, how can my underworld function and how can I convince the people?"
"No matter how powerful Li Daoxuan is, I will enforce the law impartially, so why should I be afraid?"
"Even if I report this to the Emperor, I will still argue with reason and will not compromise!"
He pointed at Xue Rengui and said, "Push him into the Avici Hell and let him suffer 3,672 kinds of torture!"
Xue Rengui said angrily, "You dog official, please let me go. Otherwise, if Songzhou is lost, the people of Shenzhou will suffer. Can you afford it?"
The King of the Wheel smiled slightly and said, "Then you don't have to worry about it. I can handle it."
After doing this, he prepared to flee to Tubo to become the guardian god of the country, and would never return to the underworld again. Even if there was a flood, what did it have to do with him?
The King of Hell sounds majestic, but he is the one with the least power. And there is Guan Yu, who always looks at him with murderous eyes.
It’s better not to wait in this underworld!
Xue Rengui was his token of surrender.
Just as Xue Rengui was about to be taken to hell to be punished, a voice suddenly rang out, making the already gloomy Suying Palace even colder.
"I think you can't afford it."
Li Daoxuan walked over holding a peach branch. Behind him were countless screaming ghosts and gods. No matter whether they were ghost generals or ghost soldiers, they could all be defeated with a whip.
"Bold—"
Before the Chakravartin could finish his words, the peach branch turned into a stream of light, and as fast as lightning, it nailed his crown to the beam.
His pupils were dizzy, his hair was disheveled, and he looked extremely disheveled, no longer as majestic as before.
"Hurry up and catch him!"
The Chakravartin shouted loudly. He looked at the figure in white and suddenly felt an inexplicable fear in his heart.
The ghost soldiers and generals in the hall rushed forward.
However, a five-colored divine light flashed, and the ghosts disappeared in an instant. The hall became empty, with only a cold wind blowing slowly.
The Chakravartin's heart trembled. What kind of magical power was that?
"Demon, fall into reincarnation!"
He did not sit and wait for death, but directly sacrificed his Shinto treasure, the Wheel Seal. It was a round jade seal with the Six Paths of Reincarnation engraved on it. It emitted a hazy luster and hit Li Daoxuan.
Anyone struck by this seal will immediately have their soul plunged into samsara, and it is a treasure that symbolizes his Shinto authority.
The Chakravartin was confident that even a human immortal would not dare to confront his seal head-on.
However, the Shinto seal containing the power of reincarnation stopped three feet away from Li Daoxuan. Then the power of reincarnation backfired and broke into several pieces with a click.
The Chakravartin spat out a mouthful of blood and was shocked at the scene.
"You... who are you?"
The cycle of reincarnation will not harm you, and no calamity will threaten your life.
This man's cultivation was truly unfathomable. He clearly did nothing and allowed himself to be attacked, but this King of Hell's magic weapon was shattered and he vomited blood.
Before Li Daoxuan could say anything, he saw two huge figures emerging in the sky above the underworld. They were wearing crowns, looked majestic and gloomy, and exuded a gloomy aura.
King Chujiang and King Taishan!
As the Ten Kings of Hell, their divine authority is interrelated. Therefore, when the seal of the Chakravartin was broken, the two Kings of Hell noticed it at the same time and joined forces to capture Li Daoxuan.
They don't get along well with the Chakravartin, but as Yama, they should first unite against external forces and maintain the dignity of the underworld.
However, Li Daoxuan didn't even look at them.
brush!
The five-colored divine light rose again, containing infinite mysteries. The brilliant five-colored light illuminated the entire underworld.
After the light dissipated, the two Yamas were no longer visible in the sky above the underworld.
Li Daoxuan stood with his hands behind his back, his white robes fluttering and his black hair like a waterfall. He did not move at all from beginning to end, as if the combination of the two Yamas was no different to him than two ghosts.
The Chakravartin was cold all over.
The strength of King Chujiang and King Taishan are both above his. When the two of them join forces and are in the underworld with the blessing of Yin energy, they are equal to two ghost immortals.
But in front of this person, he was powerless to fight back.
How high is his cultivation level?
At this moment, the war horses neighed, and Guan Yu was riding on the Red Hare, with its four hooves stepping on fire , holding the Green Dragon Crescent Blade in his hand, with a frown and angry eyes, looking awe-inspiring.
"Who is this demon who dares to trespass into the underworld?"
He slashed at Li Daoxuan with his sword, and a phantom of a green dragon appeared. The dragon's roar sounded, shaking the heavens and the earth. Its ferocious momentum far surpassed that of the Yang God and reached the realm of immortals.
Spring and Autumn swordsmanship!
There was a hint of surprise in Li Daoxuan's eyes. He didn't expect that Yunchang had reached such a realm after just a few decades of not seeing him. He was indeed a genius in practicing Shinto.
Among the five immortals, namely heaven, earth, man, gods and ghosts, it is actually not easy to achieve the status of immortal. It requires a huge amount of incense and offerings, and the person’s personality must be consistent with the duties of a god and be able to resonate with the Tao.
Guan Yu followed the path of loyalty and bravery. He was brave and strong, and had great righteousness. He left behind many legends during his lifetime and was revered by thousands of people. The way of deification was almost tailor-made for him.
This extremely powerful sword strike made Li Daoxuan, who was in the Earthly Immortal Realm, shine.
clang!!!
The long sword fell from the sky, and a green dragon could be clearly seen dancing. The sword energy was as bright as a rainbow, and it actually cut through Li Daoxuan's protective fairy light and chopped his neck.
Sparks flew and the sound of metal echoed endlessly.
The Green Dragon Crescent Blade trembled in Guan Yu's hand. A hint of surprise appeared in his phoenix eyes, which looked down upon all heroes, as he stared at the golden light on the blade.
The supernatural power of the physical body is indestructible!
After practicing the Eight-Nine Profound Art to the fifth level, the Vajra-indestructible physical power became more and more profound. Not only could he resist swords and halberds, but he could also become more and more resistant to earth, water, wind, fire, lightning, etc. The strength of his physical body was equivalent to that of ordinary immortal weapons.
To be honest, even if Li Daoxuan stood still, it would be almost impossible to find anyone in the world who could hurt him.
Guan Yu was already considered an extremely powerful person because he was able to cut through his invisible protective fairy light and let the blade fall on his neck.
"Yun Chang, you have made great progress."
Guan Yu was stunned. Before he could say anything, he saw five-colored divine light rising into the sky.
brush!
He and his horse were taken in, and even though he had the status of a deity, he was still powerless to resist.
This is the power of the innate five-colored divine light. No matter whether it is an immortal or a magic weapon, it can be taken away with just one swipe. No matter how powerful you are or how profound your cultivation is, you will never be able to escape the second move.
Unless one's cultivation is one major realm higher than Li Daoxuan, that is, reaching the celestial immortal realm, otherwise under the five-colored divine light, there is no difference between immortals and mortals.
When the divine light appears, it sweeps away everything!
Li Daoxuan turned to look at the Wheel King and said calmly: "I told you that you can't afford it."
The Chakravartin was really scared at this moment. That was Guan Yu, the Great Marshal who conquered demons in the Three Realms. Apart from the Emperor, he was the most powerful warrior in the underworld. However, he still could not block the five-colored divine light.
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding...
In the underworld, the sound of an ancient bell suddenly rang out and spread thousands of miles.
The Wheel King seemed to have heard a cry for help, and said to Li Daoxuan: "Demon, you, don't be so arrogant, someone has rung the jade bell, the emperor is about to come out of seclusion!"
Lord of the Netherworld, Emperor of Ghosts in the Underworld.
Although Chen Ziyu has been in seclusion for many years, she is undoubtedly the strongest in the underworld. She was the Goddess of Xiaoxiang more than 40 years ago, and now she is the lord of the underworld and controls the water veins of the world.
No one knows what realm she has reached now. All they know is that every time she comes out, thousands of strange phenomena will occur in the underworld, causing the Great Dao to resonate.
What is the moon rising from the sea, the red lotus growing in the dark sea...
So even though she didn't often take care of government affairs, people in the entire underworld were in awe of her. Even the Chakravartin, who had ulterior motives, had to find a way out before he dared to make any small moves.
When people on earth are still talking about the Northern Taoist Saint Monk, the Eastern Heavenly Master, and the Western Sword Immortal, people in the underworld often just smile and say nothing.
If that red-robed Ghost Emperor came out, what would be their business?
Hearing the words of the Chakravartin, Li Daoxuan's eyes showed a hint of amusement.
Ask Zi Yu to beat me?
What a smart guy.
But it’s okay. After more than 40 years of separation, Li Daoxuan missed Sister Yu very much. The main reason for his visit to the underworld this time, in addition to saving Xue Rengui, was to see his beloved wife whom he had not seen for a long time.
Boom!
Mount Yamafu shook, and a red light flew out from the temple on the mountain. In an instant, red rain began to fall from the underworld.
The raindrops fell on the ground and turned into red lotuses, blooming all over the underworld.
A bright and flawless moon slowly rises from the underworld, casting its clear light and cleansing the underworld. All the ghosts and gods bathing in the moonlight feel grateful, and the yin energy in their bodies surges, making them feel comfortable all over.
There was no moon in the underworld originally, but when the Ghost Emperor came out, there was a bright moon, and everything in the underworld would be exposed under that bright moon.
A goddess came from under the moon, holding a white umbrella in her hand and wearing a red dress with fluttering sleeves. Her long black hair fell like a waterfall and a crystal clear jade hairpin carved like a phoenix was inserted diagonally into her hair.
Li Daoxuan looked at the jade hairpin, his eyes becoming softer.
Green Jade Sky-Escape Hairpin.
The first gift he gave to Sister Yu was this hairpin. Later, she rushed towards the dragon with the hairpin to cover his retreat and almost died. The hairpin was also broken into two pieces.
Finally, Li Daoxuan found the hairpin, repaired it and gave it to her.
After being repaired, the hairpin is no longer a magic weapon, it just has an empty shape. However, after being worn by Zi Yu for many years and nourished by the fairy spirit, it has regained its brilliance and is even better than before. It has become a magic treasure that cannot be underestimated.
She has tall eyebrows and deep eyes, which are elegant and luxurious, yet exudes a cold temperament, as if she is a fairy walking out of a painting, or a queen walking down from the throne, and her gaze is as cold as frost.
The Wheel King seemed to have seen a savior, and cried, "Emperor, you finally came out. It was this demon who caused chaos in the underworld and took away the King of Chujiang and the King of Taishan with his demonic light. Even Marshal Guan——"
Suddenly, his voice stopped, his pupils trembled, and he stood there in a daze.
The usually cold and aloof emperor in red actually smiled sweetly, then walked gracefully to the man in white and used the white umbrella in his hand to shield him from the red rain.
"My husband, you are finally out of seclusion."
