A white light struck out swiftly, splitting through the entire night sky of the Underworld. The wild satan below looked up, running around following the fall of the white light.
A huge dragon landed right on the border of an endless dark river. In the distance there, it could be seen a faint mist as if there was no end to it. Even though it was visible, the fog was further away than it seemed.
The white dragon changed into a human being again, a beautiful girl standing upright on the edge of a dark river containing drowning souls, contrasting her all-white appearance with icy blue irises.
Certain creatures say, the river is referred to as the river styx, the river that borders between the three worlds. That said, the oath taken from this river cannot be broken, whatever the risk will be fulfilled.
Previously, many demons tried to cross the river to go to the Upper World, but they drowned and could not get out, becoming 'fish' in the river. Slowly their spirits corroded and depleted until they could not incarnate.
Since the river in front of him was the border between the three worlds, he could go to Middle World by crossing this river. In addition to flying, a special boat is needed to cross.
Holding the hair embedded in the head of a certain creature, the girl glanced at him then asked, "Where is the Spirit World?"
Satan was silent for a while trying to look around. If he could walk, he would have shown it to this shitty human.
"It should be, on the southeast side, behind the mountain of the river border."
Xie Ran directly went in the direction that Satan had told him. When he reached the intended location, he frowned. There were no doors or anything like that, only walls and roads leading to the top of the mountain.
"Bad woman, you can't unseal there. Satan who is stronger than me uses a seal to seal the Spirit World, then makes the Spirit World his residence. No one can enter. I suggest you give up. If not—"
Wussss
The wind blew so fiercely when Xie Ran placed his hand on the mountain wall. Silver rays spread out, spreading all over the mountain and hitting the dark energy that formed throughout the mountain.
That silver ray contained pure energy that was anti-seal, when it touched the thing that the seal placed, pure energy would force it out and replace the seal with pure energy strength.
Seeing the pure energy successfully break through the seal to enter the Spirit World, Xie Ran thought he had already begun to be able to unseal within the pendant. His mission will be realized. He would give it a try when he reached the clan with Qu Xuanzi. By then it should have been pure energy levels and pure bodies already qualified.
The satan hanging in Xie Ran's hand was slightly stiffened, then looked at Xie Ran while snorting. "What's great? Just unseal the weak satan, I can too! Bad women, don't boast first. In there, not as you can imagine. I lived once, the satans there were more cannibals than expected."
Xie Ran cared about hearing, ignoring the dumbfounded head that spoke at will. His attention continued to be focused by the several gaps that gave off faint rays, forming a light door in front of him.
"Wicked woman! You're not listening to me! I suggest—"
Satan's speech was cut off when he felt his head being sucked just like that into the light. Xie Ran had walked inside quietly, forcing Satan to come with him. When he set foot behind the light, he found some spirits wandering right in front of him as if they were human.
This is the Spirit World, made up of a city that only dead spirits or souls can enter. All things are formed from the consciousness of the spirit, doing all manner of things freely and floating everywhere. The buildings under the dark sky looked like the buildings of the imperial capital, with unique blue flame illumination floating in various directions as if having life.
It's like, being in a Fantasy World.
The light behind Xie Ran disappeared, replaced by a road through which many spirits and vehicles passed. The horse passed behind Xie Ran until the girl had to move to the sidewalk.
"Indeed not as one could imagine," muttered Xie Ran. He thought this place would be so creepy and filled with ghosts of the dead.
"What's so good?" The head in Xie Ran's hands sneered. He wondered why the man who held it like this bag was so amazed by something so annoying without entertainment. If only he could bring this human to hell, surely this human was more amazed by the design in hell filled with 'entertainment'.
Xie Ran retraced his path when aware of his admiration. It can't linger here, or things will get messed up. His goal was to find Long Long, after which bring him to carry out the generation process.
But the presence of Xie Ran is striking enough to steal the attention of the spirits. Especially the head of the devil hanging in his hand, the spirits began to tremble and move away.
"What's wrong with them?" Xie Ran was confused. Their views are very strange. Not only the human spirit, even the animal spirit was also trembling in the corner.
"Of course because I saw me. For many years since the demons were free from hell, some demons entered the Spirit World and made a mess. The territory you occupy is only the territory of weak spirits and is often used as food, absolutely nothing to care about. It's natural that if they see the existence of Satan, so afraid that they can't escape." The head of the demon spoke while holding back a laugh so as not to be hit.
"Then, what about strong spirits?"
"The powerful spirits should also be around here, basically the Spirit World has no division of territory. But when Satan came, the powerful spirits immediately looked for a way not to become food and dedicated themselves to serving the devils. They will bring the spirits in this region to be handed over. That's why they're afraid of you."
"What about the dragon spirit?"
"Dragon? They're so haughty! When Satan came, their pride was maintained and refused to be made slaves. Until finally they are locked up, whenever they will be thrown in the river styx."
Xie Ran frowned, feeling that something was wrong. "Why not eat?"
"Dragon is different from humans, that's why no one can eat a dragon spirit. There are so many dragons here, there are also many that are splashed in the river styx. In fact, not only were dragons cast down, some humans and other races were the same as well. Lately there are so many humans and fairies coming as if their entire race is dead, soon perhaps snakes and dragons will catch up."
"Why did they do it?"
Satan's head is clucking about human ignorance that is minimal information. It was all because of the short-lived, their brains were simply filled with fabricated stories without knowing the true facts of history.
"Have you never heard of the war of gods and demons hundreds of years ago? At that time His Majesty was injured quite badly due to Asura, he had to refine his strength from the start using soul sacrifice. Bringing them to the river styx was only the first step, then he would seek pure energy to complete the sacrifice."
"Your Majesty? What is the Demon Emperor?" Xie Ran wondered.
"Isn't the Demon Emperor an Asura? The Celestial Emperor was also Asura, meaning it wasn't the two of them."
"It can't be the Human Emperor, can it?" Xie Ran had a strange feeling.
"Women are evil, since when have humans been so strong? Even before His Majesty appeared, the Human Emperor was already dead first!"
Xie Ran frowned, thinking seriously. Is this a 'him' problem again? Why is it that everywhere there are always people who call it but do not know its identity?
Then, about the war of gods and demons, why did 'he' also appear? Is the mastermind of all these tragedies actually 'he'? Where did all this happen?
Satan's head was silent for a while. Then said in a low voice, "Don't mention his name, or 'he' will come. I can't bear the consequences."
"You know I have pure energy, 'he' won't kill me easily." Xie Ran was confident.
"Even if you have pure energy, going to the Spirit World is a big ban! Once you spill blood, or use pure energy inside, 'he' will know where you are."
"Then seal—"
"It doesn't matter, it's not His Majesty who made it, it's the sycophant's Satan." Satan's head felt tense talking about the matter of 'he'.
But Xie Ran was unwilling to stop asking. "What is the plan? What did he do in the past, especially in war?"
"Originally you know, Your Majesty is not something to be taken lightly. It was even 'he' that caused war and left the Demon Emperor uncontrollable to the point of fighting the Celestial Emperor while simultaneously destroying the Upper World. If the Demon Emperor met him, the Demon Emperor would be much more dangerous than now, you might as well not survive. This Your Majesty, just like the one rowing, the two islands are surpassed. Very good, also terrible."
"What did he do until the Demon Emperor got out of control?"
"Actually, it's not uncontrollable, but it's within the control of 'he'. His Majesty also has the blood of gods and devils, already fully controls both blood well, better than the Celestial Emperor so use the advantage of the blood of gods and demons to control the blood of demons apart."
"It happened when Asura was a child and lived in the Underworld. That person betrayed the Demon God and killed his entire family, the Life Goddess was not released either. Asura was very lucky to have saved the Celestial Emperor before and become a god."
"When Asura came to the Underworld for revenge and sealed the palace, 'he' messed up the Asura demon blood to the point of barely being in control. As a result, Asura became bloodthirsty, thus having to separate the blood of gods and demons, forming a new body for the blood of demons so that it created a Demon Emperor."
"But because 'he' had controlled the blood of the Asura demons, the Demon Emperor was brought to the Underworld and messed up a lot until declaring war. That's the truth why war happens."
Satan's head explained in detail based on what he knew from hell. The rest of the battle was clear, not knowing for sure. Since he often went out of hell for the streets as a qualified Satanist, he could know it all. If not, he won't know anything.
Xie Ran's brain kept spinning all the information it got. It could be concluded, 'he' was a god as well as a demon like Qu Xuanzi, 'he' who caused war and all the chaos in the three worlds, 'he' was also the one who made his family slaughtered through Huai Mao.
The more thought out, the more furious Xie Ran became. If 'he' hadn't acted, none of this would have happened. Xie Ran would not die, nor would Xie Ruo ever exist. His mother, Wen Xi would be fine in the Upper World with her brother and the Dragon God. Xie Yun was also still living with a human partner, or even living in the Upper World because of Xie Jin who became a God.
The dragon race will be fine. Not just the dragon race, all the races in the three worlds and all the lives wasted on sacrifices would be fine and live a decent life. All of those sacrifices eventually reached the river styx and were made into the material of soul sacrifice for one's strength. That's not worth it!
"If it wasn't Qu Xuanzi, then I would have killed him." Xie Ran's mood was so bad. He glanced at the satan in his hand and said firmly, "Take me to where the dragons are."
Satan's head was a bit surprised, but could not resist. If it refused, it would be grabbed so hard and hit, it was not tasty. So he can only direct.
With lightning speed, Xie Ran darted, immediately disappearing from the city in search of the existence of the dragon spirit, especially Long Long. He should be on time. At any time, the dragons would be the next victims.
The silver light that flashed swiftly like a shooting star attracted the attention of the spirits and demons. Several demons from outside the Spirit World also came rushing over, creating a commotion that caused the spirits to shout in fear.
When rushing quickly to the intended place, suddenly Xie Ran's head throbbed with a loud buzzing sound in his ears that he had to stop. He lowered his head while holding both ears, while the head of the devil in his hand rolled on the ground and stopped when he touched the stone.
"Well, there was another dragon coming. Let me see, pure energy? It's funny, apparently pure energy has died and gone to the Spirit World, haha!" A woman in a red dress suddenly appeared. Her appearance was beautiful and seductive, her black and jet irises were so beautiful, yet staring at Xie Ran was filled with dislike.
Several other demons came, standing behind him. They were a wild devil consisting of various forms, looking at Xie Ran hungry.
"It's unfortunate, dying at a young age. It seems like His Majesty's work will be finished soon." The woman smiled triumphantly. The demons behind him could only stare without saying, not daring to pass through that one female demon.
The woman approached Xie Ran who was still enduring the pain. He raised his hand, controlled the mental attack he gave Xie Ran and strengthened the mental attack.
Xie Ran groaned in pain until half on his knees. He closed his eyes looking so pitiful that the woman laughed feeling so happy. After passing out later, he would bring the human before His Majesty. He will get a big reward!
The woman was intending to make this human spirit faint. But the more he increased his strength, the one human did not faint, only groaning pain endlessly making the woman careless.
The longer, the more his mental strength ran out until he felt tired. Until when does the human continue to be in pain without fainting? Is his power weakening?
"Hey stupid, are you going to continue like that?" The cornered head behind the stone spoke, making the woman realize that another powerful demon was present.
The woman looked. "You?"
The dumb-headed man sighed. "That's your fate."
Right after, the woman looked back at the man she controlled. But instead of seeing the human fainting, it should see a fist pressing down on his face so hard as to be hit by a huge rock.
The stumped head in the corner could only grimace. "I'm grateful my handsome face is still intact."
The woman retreated, but she had not had time to prepare herself, the white light suddenly flashed so quickly that her entire body turned filled with shadows as if burning before finally turning into ashes.
The wild satan reacted. Xie Ran slashed his sword, sweeping the demons with full force leaving an area filled with black ash.
"I think I'll get another piece of information," muttered Xie Ran, then glanced at the head that was sculpting in the corner. "Thank God not like them."
The head was silent for a while until his hair was pulled back to carry. He mumbled sadly, "But I'm like this."
He continued traveling at high speed. Along the way, the satans continued to relentlessly chase, feeling thirsty for his soul. Some of the stronger demons like the 'head' were also blocked, just like the woman earlier. But this time, Xie Ran preferred to ignore.
Actually too flashy is not too good, but he does not have much time so can only play openly. It's indeed risky. After all, he had already attracted attention since the beginning of the entrance.
Xie Ran's speed was so fast. The location that was said to be 'head' was already visible. Because behind him there were still too many demons, he finished them off so as not to be so troublesome especially the wild Satan group. Until finally he went back on his way to enter the cave called as dragon spirit prison.
When Xie Ran entered the cave, the demons stopped, not daring to go too deep.
