I have a relic of heaven

Chapter 335 Arrival
"Jiuyou."

The middle-aged Taoist walked down the Naihe Bridge. There were no auspicious clouds following him, nor any ups and downs. He looked ordinary and normal.

This is Zhou Mu's past [God's body], and it is the middle-aged face among his three faces.
This is called the primordial body.

His appearance is what Yuanshi Tianzun should have looked like.

Looking up, the flowers on the other shore stretch like a sea, and the Yellow Spring River is shrouded in mist. The ferryman happens to be there, picking up people and ferrying them across the river.

The middle-aged Taoist priest walked closer, holding the jade ruyi. A handsome man who had just boarded the boat turned around curiously and shuddered.

"What a coincidence! I didn't expect you to be here too." Zhou Mu said with a smile, "How could you need a ferryman to cross the Yellow Springs?"

Having said that, he stepped onto the covered boat.

The ferryman was a little puzzled and said politely:

"Guest, you have to pay to cross the river."

Zhou Mu calmly reached his hand into the River of Time, took out a handful of Yin notes, handed them to the old woman, then glanced sideways at the handsome man:

"Fellow?"

The handsome man came to his senses belatedly and bowed:
"Why are you here in Jiuyou?"

"Come and see us on the way." Zhou Mu said calmly. He recognized the man at the first sight - one of the great masters, Dong Wanggong.

After taking over the position of Yuanshi Tianzun, Zhou Mu was everywhere over the years and naturally had seen Dong Wanggong countless times.

Dong Wang Gong, also known as Mu Gong and Donghua Emperor, is the chief male immortal in the Third Epoch, the supreme god of the sun in the Second Epoch, and in the most ancient First Epoch, he is also the oldest alien species that roamed the heavens.

The covered boat started to move slowly, heading to the other side of the river. The handsome man looked extremely serious, with his eyes twitching.

He didn't understand why Taoist Yuanshi had come to the Nine Netherworld in the past!
Is it because of the cry of the black bird that echoes throughout the nine underworlds?

While he was daydreaming, he saw the middle-aged Taoist holding the Jade Ruyi raise his eyelids slightly and said:

"You're a little slow, fellow Daoist. See you in half an hour."

After saying this, Hua Ling, who was wearing the clothes, subconsciously glanced to the side, only to find that there was only the handsome man wearing the clothes, and the middle-aged Taoist priest had disappeared.

It's as if it had never appeared, never arrived.

She was stunned:
"What about the Taoist priest?"

"Half an hour later." Emperor Donghua rubbed his brows. He had an urge to turn around and run away, not wanting to get involved in this mess, but he wisely suppressed this thought.

Since that person said that we would meet in half an hour, then we must meet in half an hour.

"Something big is going to happen." A trace of fear appeared on Emperor Donghua's face. He even seriously suspected that the Lord of Yuxu Palace had deliberately come to the river at this moment to see him?
But, why?
Is it a warning?
still is
Emperor Donghua's thoughts turned, and the main thought descended half an hour later, descending on the self of the moment before [the present time].

Coincidentally, that was when the covered boat arrived at the other side of the river.

"Guest, we're here." The old woman spoke hoarsely, but suddenly frowned and looked towards the shore, with a trace of confusion on her face:
"When did you.?"

On the shore, Zhou Mu, who looked like Yuanshi Taoist, stood quietly, stroking the jade ruyi in his hand. He did not answer or explain, but nodded slightly towards the old woman.

"Go."

"Your past, your origins, and your sufferings will all be clear to you in three hours."

He casually changed the [cause] of the old woman and determined her fate. After watching the sailboat drift down the river bank, he looked at the handsome man who had just landed.

"Your Majesty." Emperor Donghua performed the ceremony, his breathing slightly rapid. This moment was not [now], but it was also extremely close to [now] - just a moment before now.

almost negligible.

In a sense, this moment is the limit of the past years.

If the long river of time does not move forward, the past will extend. However, no matter how it extends, there is always a thin line between the past and the present.
And I, and this Heavenly Lord, are above this line!
Can.
As his mind turned over and over, Emperor Donghua began to sweat. The Lord of Yuxu personally reached the limit of the past, infinitely close to the [present]. What was he doing? ?

It’s a big event, a shocking event!

He seemed to see a dark curtain covering the sky and the sun, and realized that he was involved in the battle between the Supremes!
If I'm not mistaken, Yuanshi and Houtu?
Zhou Mu didn't know what Emperor Donghua was thinking at the moment, so he said calmly:
"Lord Dong, are you going to the City of the Dead?"

Emperor Donghua came back to his senses and quickly bowed:
"Indeed, I don't know, Tianzun?"

Zhou Mu turned his head and stared at Emperor Donghua. He met his gaze, smiled, but did not speak.

And it is also this moment.

Innumerable years ago, during a grand gathering at Yuxu Palace, the Lord of Yuxu, who was preaching, stopped his words and dismissed all the important figures who came to listen to his sermon.
The only one left was Dong Wanggong, who was still the Great Sun God at that time.

"Looked up."

A solemn Taoist voice sounded, and sweat broke out on the forehead of the Great Sun God. He raised his head and met the eyes of the Taoist sitting on the Yuanshi Qingyun.

In the eyes of the Taoist, he saw the overlapping dark universe, the past of all the heavens and worlds, the cause and effect, and his own origin!
'Boom! '

The Great Sun God subconsciously crawled down and prostrated himself before the Great Heavenly God.

The green lamp in front of Yuanshi Da Tianzun was burning slowly.

"Please, God, give me your instructions!" said the Great Sun God bitterly.

Zhou Mu sat upright in the Jade Void Palace. The seventy-two colored lights behind him intertwined into a veil. He spoke solemnly, like rolling jade-clear thunder:
"Let me ask you, fellow Taoist, who is behind this?"

It is at this moment that the question is asked.

This question was asked by Yuanshi Tianzun whenever he met the Great Sun God and the King of the East at all times in history.

Every time Yuanshi saw Emperor Donghua, he asked:

"Let me ask you, fellow Taoist, who is behind this?"

The infinite sound of the Tao from the entire Great Age pierced the ears of Emperor Donghua and Lord Sun.

The Great Sun God, who was crawling in front of the Jade Void Palace, did not hesitate at all:

"This is the Heavenly Emperor of this era."

"Is that so?"

Above Yuanshi Qingyun, the Taoist lowered his brows and smiled.

It is at this moment, the limit of the past years, a moment ago, on the bank of the Jiuyou Yellow Springs River.

Zhou Mu stroked Yu Ruyi and said gently:
"So, fellow Daoist, you still miss the days when you were the Great Sun Lord?"

Emperor Donghua breathed rapidly and felt a little dazed. The Taoist in front of him was the Yuanshi Great Celestial Lord whom he had visited millions of times in the past.
At this moment, these faces and figures overlapped, infinitely majestic and majestic!
He nodded tremblingly:

"To reply to the Lord, yes."

Zhou Mu nodded and asked again:
"What did fellow Taoist Taiyi, the Emperor of the Second Era, promise you?"

Emperor Donghua pursed his lips and answered honestly:

"When Emperor Taitian ascends the throne again, I will be the [North Pole Purple Star Emperor] of that era."

"Yes." Zhou Mu said calmly: "I won't embarrass you. I just want to ask you, what are you doing in Jiuyou?"

Emperor Donghua did not dare to be negligent in the slightest:

"At the end of the catastrophe, when the three realms were divided, I came to the Nine Netherworlds under the order of Taiyi to monitor the movements and arrangements of the Queen Mother Hou Tu. This time, I heard the cry of the black bird, so I rushed to the City of the Dead to see what was going on."

Zhou Mu asked:
"Since we are going to the City of the Dead, why are you taking so long? The other powerful masters will all be there soon."

Dong Wanggong replied:

"I don't want to be too conspicuous, I don't want to attract attention, I just go to observe."

"very good."

Zhou Mu exhaled a breath of pure air, and a smile appeared on the face of his original body. In the depths of his eyes, infinite cause and effect threads flickered:
"I cannot leave the City of the Dead."

Dong Wanggong looked up in astonishment. In the past, was there a place that this person couldn't go to? Even if there was, how could it be a mere city of the dead?

While he was confused, he heard the Taoist in front of him say calmly:

"One of Daoist Hou Tu's incarnations is in the City of Wrongful Death. If I approach, Daoist Hou Tu might notice me."

After a pause, Zhou Mu stared at Dong Wanggong in different states at every moment in the past years.
The green lanterns are bright and the sky-opening banners are swaying, it seems that everything is peaceful, but also that an undercurrent is surging.

"Therefore."

Yuanshi Taoist said:
"I would like to ask for your help to go to the City of Wrongful Death and attack the incarnation of Taoist Hou Tu. How do you think?"

Emperor Donghua raised his head, widened his eyes, and a bitter look appeared on his face:
"Tianzun, it's not that I don't want to, it's just, just."

He took a deep breath and said:

"How can I be a match for the incarnation of Hou Tu Niangniang? What's more, there are Zhu Long, the Central Ghost Emperor and others heading to the Wrongful Death City."

Yuanshi Tianzun's tone was full of unquestionable meaning:
"Do it."

"Fellow Daoist Hou Tu's incarnation is only a Daluo. To be honest, he is Shennong, one of the Three Sovereigns of the human race."

Emperor Donghua was stunned and just wanted to cover his ears. He didn't want to listen to such a big secret, and even more so, he didn't want to get involved in such muddy water.

but.
He raised his head and looked at Yuanshi Tianzun on the Yellow Spring River, Yuanshi Tianzun in Yuxu Palace, and Yuanshi Tianzun sitting on the throne at the Peach Festival.

Even in the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation during the first calamity of the Conferred Gods, Yuanshi Tianzun, who was in the process of breaking the formation, glanced sideways, looking far away outside the formation, at Dong Wanggong who was watching the battle.

Everything is unspoken.

Emperor Donghua was depressed. He took a deep breath and said politely:

"I am willing to work for the Lord."

Hou Tu Niang Niang is supreme, Yuan Shi Da Tian Zun is also supreme, but...
He knows in his heart who is stronger.

"good."

On the bank of the Yellow Springs River, the Taoist nodded:
"The Northern Emperor is also in the City of Wrongful Death at this moment. Fellow Daoist Hou Tu's Shennong's body has entangled him."

The pupils of Emperor Donghua suddenly shrank——Emperor Bei? ?

Yuanshi Taoist continued to speak:
"When you arrive at the City of the Wrongly Dead, you will see the Northern Emperor sitting in the tea stall. But if you see him throw the teacup away, you will attack Shennong."

"After this matter is over, I will also promise to give you the position of the Northern Emperor of the Fourth Epoch."

"how?"

Emperor Donghua was stunned at first, but then a look of ecstasy appeared in his eyes. After a very brief hesitation, he made up his mind and completely gave up the idea of escaping.

Beat a hand!
The Northern Emperors are all the Lord of Yuxu’s men!

If what this Heavenly Lord said was true and his promise was genuine, then he would almost certainly become the Northern Emperor of the Fourth Epoch!

The Great Emperor of Beiji Ziwei is also called the Emperor Candidate of Heaven.

In other words, he had a chance to become the Fifth Era Heavenly Emperor.

"I'm going to the City of the Dead now!"

Emperor Donghua politely took his leave. Taoist Yuanshi smiled and watched him turn into light and disappear into the horizon.

Stroking the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi, Zhou Mu said to himself:

"Although I don't have any amazing abilities, my cultivation is limited, and I am just a facade, but it's enough."

His eyes were extremely deep. He knew that he was just an empty shell. He had a position but no ability. However, an empty shell was enough to command those with great supernatural powers.

No one dared not to obey.

In the past, Yuanshi was the most respected, and those with great supernatural powers had to die at the same time in all time in order to completely fall.

In other words, Yuanshi, who controls the past years, will not let anyone die, and that person will never die.

On the contrary, if Yuanshi wanted a great Luo or a great supernatural being to shed blood,
The latter may not die, but he may also not die.

Ksitigarbha Buddha is the best proof.

"Is one Dong Wanggong enough?"

Zhou Mu talked to himself, then calmed down. There were only so many powerful people in the Nine Netherworlds, and the remaining Zhulong and the Central Ghost Emperor might not listen to him.

Most likely he is loyal to Hou Tu.

As for Zhen Yuanzi, according to Shennong, he seems to have a close relationship with Hou Tu, so it's not easy to meet him, but...
Zhou Mu smiled and an idea came to his mind.

Journey to the West, Yuxu Palace.

Zhen Yuanzi, who was about to take his leave, had just walked to the gate of Yuxu Palace when he heard a majestic voice behind him.

"Daoist Zhen Yuanzi."

He froze and turned around:

"Tianzun."

Yuanshi Tianzun smiled:

"Don't rush back to your Taoist temple. How about we play a game of chess and have a cup of tea?"

Zhen Yuanzi had a bad feeling in his heart, but he did not dare to neglect it:

"It is an honor to be invited by the Heavenly Lord. How dare I refuse?"

As he spoke, he walked forward, performed the ceremony respectfully, and then picked up the cup of hot tea bestowed by the Heavenly Lord.

The fragrance of tea lingers.

………………

Now the years have passed, and I died in vain outside the city.

"Nothing will happen, I hope." Zhen Yuanzi, who had just arrived outside the City of Wrongful Death, wiped the sweat off his forehead. He had a bad feeling in his heart and complained bitterly.

History suddenly changed, the past suddenly changed, and Yuanshi came to me for tea at the wrong time. Could it be related to what is happening now?
No, probably not
After all, that person is trapped in the past and cannot observe what is happening in the present.

"I hope I'm just worrying too much." Zhen Yuanzi said to himself.

at the same time.

The sky suddenly changed, and countless huge creatures flew out from the void. When they opened their eyes, the underworld was bright, and when they closed their eyes, the underworld was dead silent.
In the north, a great figure was also coming, with ghost energy surging like an endless river, and countless ghost soldiers accompanying him on both sides;

As for the east, there was a raging sea of blood spreading over. Sitting on the sea of blood was an ancient creature, extremely old, with two killing swords hanging between its hair.
One is called [Avici], the other is called [Yuantu].

One after another, those with great magical powers were arriving at the City of the Dead. Storms were gathering, and everyone in the City of the Dead was shocked and prostrated themselves in worship.

Except for two people.

At the corner of the long street, the tea in the teapot was already boiling, and the old man running the tea stall was lying on the ground shivering. On both sides of the wooden table, Shennong was smiling, and Beidi's smile was even brighter.

Zhou Mu gently picked up a teacup on the table, held it in his hand, and stared at Shennong across the table:

"Deal done."

"Fellow Daoist, please tell me first the last step to becoming the Heavenly Emperor."

Shennong raised his eyelids and glanced at the teacup spinning in the hands of Beiji Ziwei Emperor. The teacup seemed like it would fall to the ground and break into pieces at any time.

The sky was filled with a sea of blood, the killing sword froze souls to the bones, the Candle Dragon was flying with the Nine Nether Candle in its mouth, carrying an entire Zhongshan Mountain, and the Central Ghost Emperor had also arrived.

Great and powerful.
