Ascension to the Gods

Chapter 165 Scattered
After reading the communication, Yinyin looked a little relieved.

Under everyone's gaze.

She stood up, took Jiang Zhao's hand, and said softly, "Don't worry."

Jiang Zhao sat down next to her and asked, "Does the Divine Envoy have any method for dealing with the Dead Man's Jade?"

aside.

Liu Tiezhu sighed and urged, "Yinyin, just say what you want to say."

Yinyin glanced at him and said, "The dead jade is indeed an ominous thing."

"Once the gray air surrounds the soul, it will drag the soul of the living away."

“But my father said again.”

"Recently, Qishenxing Palace has made a discovery."

"The Dead Man's Jade has another function."

"This thing can protect the souls of the living and allow them to enter the realm of the dead."

"in other words."

“With it.”

"Even if you fall into the entrance to the underworld, you can return safely before the gray energy is exhausted."

Hear this.

Liu Tiezhu's eyes darkened as he said, "So, Shi Xuan sent us the Jade of the Dead just to force us into the Underworld?"

"If we don't go, our souls will be taken away by the Jade of the Dead."

"This is what he calls a friend."

"How ridiculous!"

As he spoke, Liu Tiezhu's expression became even uglier. "The Underworld is where the dead stay. If you really fall in, how can you get back out?"

"Don't worry," Yinyin said softly, "My father said that he would rather waste the power of the Prayer Temple than let anything happen to us."

The words fell.

The originally tense atmosphere in the cabin suddenly eased.

"Great!"

Shanye rubbed his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief, "Now that the Lord Divine Envoy has taken action, we don't have to worry anymore."

Liu Tiezhu's expression froze for a moment, and his complexion also improved a little.

Jiang Zhao asked, "Is the Divine Messenger coming?"

Shan Ye shook his head and explained, "The Lord Divine Envoy is in charge of the Prayer Temple. He is the Lord of Prayer in the prefecture and controls all the divine power that the Prayer Temple has collected over the past few hundred years."

"As long as it's within the boundaries of the prefecture, divine power is almost omnipotent."

"You don't need to move. You can intervene in the affairs of the prefecture at any time."

“Even the Lord of a Prefecture must show some respect to him.”

While talking.

The shuttle crossed the border and entered the continent, landing on the bank of Shao River.

Shan Ye continued, "Every Divine Envoy in the Prefecture Realm can connect to the Moon Realm and is directly responsible to the Qishen Star Palace. They have immense power."

"Your Yinyin is a true young lady."

Jiang Zhao blinked: "My Yinyin?"

Zhong Ling sat quietly on the side, not saying a word, with a complicated expression.

Originally, she and Jiang Zhao had a very good relationship.

But since transferring to Linjiang Academy, although they are still inseparable, there is an extra person named Yin Yin by their side.

Several people were chatting and laughing.

The shuttle across the border fell down.

Yinyin stood up, her expression solemn: "Father will help us get rid of the aura of the Dead Jade."

"But he also said that no matter what, we cannot enter the underground realm."

"Once you rush in, things will get out of control."

"We can see from a distance what Shi Xuan is up to."

"But you must never believe anything he says!"

She turned her head and said to Jiang Zhao, "Jiang Zhao, you don't have the Dead Man Jade on you, so you won't be in danger. Why don't you wait on the boat and don't get off."

Jiang Zhao hesitated for a moment and looked at his brother.

Jiang Jian stood up, walked to the cabin door, and said softly, "You decide for yourself."

Jiang Zhao nodded obediently and said, "Then I won't go down. I'll watch you from the porthole and come back as soon as possible."

The hatch opens.

The night wind was bitterly cold.

The waves hit the rocks, making a loud noise.

Jiang Jian walked down the gangway and looked at the gray river water, and immediately sensed an unusual atmosphere.

"There are abundant water veins here. According to common sense, it should breed many ghosts and monsters."

“But at this moment, there is no breath of life.”

He took two steps forward and looked at the churning river surface.

A few meters away, the deep river water was surging violently.

What was strange was that the water veins were extremely silent, without any fluctuation of breath.

"Martial law is in place here, no approach allowed!"

A few dozen meters away, a team of inspectors came in unison.

The inspection captain stopped and said with a cold expression, "The government office has issued a martial law order. No one is allowed to approach here. Please leave immediately!"

Liu Tiezhu stood in front of him, spread his hands and said nothing.

Zhong Ling and Jiang Zhao both chose to stay on the shuttle and did not get off.

Shan Ye walked over, lowered his voice, and said to Jiang Jian, "Didn't Shi Xuan tell us to send him a communication after we reach the coordinates? You have the best relationship with him, so you can do it."

Yinyin also looked over here.

This is the earliest study team.

The decision-making power was given to Jiang Jian again.

"can."

Jiang Jian nodded and turned on the identity device.

Seeing no one paying attention to him, the inspection team leader looked worried and said in a more serious tone: "Students, please leave the martial law area immediately! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

Behind him, a team of inspectors stood ready.

next second.

A strange gray gas emerged from nothingness.

In an instant, the team of inspectors was swallowed up.

See this scene.

Liu Tiezhu's expression changed slightly, and the spiritual energy around him surged, as if facing a powerful enemy.

A few seconds later.

A thin figure walked out from the gray air.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

He was wearing a school uniform, carrying a Moon Chaser Sword on his back, and his voice was a little hoarse.

The gray air dissipated.

The team of inspectors fainted and lay in a mess on the riverbank.

“I thought some people wouldn’t come.”

Shi Xuan smiled and said, "I didn't expect you all to come."

His appearance was exactly the same as when we first parted.

But his face had lost its color and was abnormally pale.

Yamaye and Yinyin looked at each other and remained silent.

Liu Tiezhu said coldly, "Shi Xuan, we consider you a friend, but you sent us the Jade of the Dead. What on earth do you want to do?"

Shi Xuan's face was calm as he said, "I've already said in the communication that I need help from my friends."

"If you don't want to come, you don't have to come."

"I didn't force it." Hearing this.

Liu Tiezhu couldn't help but get furious. He took out the Dead Man's Jade from his pocket and threw it to the ground. "Is this what you mean by no coercion?!"

"By the time this thing takes effect, will my soul be gone?"

Shi Xuan was silent for a moment, then said, "Its function is not to harm you, but to protect you from the aura of the dead."

Liu Tiezhu said coldly: "You are still talking nonsense here, this is the Jade of the Dead, the aura inside is clearly..."

His voice suddenly stopped.

Because Shi Xuan had already picked up the dead man's jade and rubbed it gently.

The jade turned into powder and scattered on the river bank.

at the same time.

Liu Tiezhu also felt that the strange aura that originally surrounded his soul had disappeared without a trace.

He opened his mouth and wanted to curse, but nothing came out.

Shi Xuan didn't say anything, with a sad expression, looking at the other three people.

Yamaye walked forward silently, took out the Dead Man's Jade, hesitated for a moment, and then threw it on the riverbank.

When the time comes, no one jokes about their own life.

A gentle breeze blew.

Shi Xuan lowered his body and brushed his hand.

The jade was crushed into powder.

Yinyin sighed and asked, "Shixuan, what exactly happened to you during this period? Tell me about it."

Shi Xuan stood up and repeated what he had just said: "I need help."

Yinyin's tone turned cold: "Do you really have to be a riddler?"

Shi Xuan looked at her without saying anything.

Yinyin took out the Dead Man's Jade, waved it in front of him, and asked again: "Tell me clearly, what kind of help do you need?"

Shi Xuan finally spoke: "Follow me into the underworld."

Although there had been speculations before.

But at this time, when they really heard these words, their expressions turned cold.

Liu Tiezhu gritted his teeth and said, "Only the dead can go to the underworld!"

Shi Xuan said calmly: "This jade can protect the soul."

Liu Tiezhu sneered: "For hundreds of years, no one who has entered the underground realm has ever come out."

Shi Xuan remained silent.

Yinyin, on the other hand, was unbiased and said, "Qishenxing Palace has indeed conducted some research recently. The occasional appearance of dead jade is very likely to allow people to safely pass through the entrance to the underworld."

"But until now, no one has dared to risk their life to try."

"Shi Xuan, you didn't even explain yourself clearly, and you're asking us to gamble our lives."

"No matter how you explain it, it doesn't make sense."

Yinyin said seriously, "My father is the divine messenger of the government office. Please explain clearly. If I can help you, I will definitely find a way."

Shi Xuan shook his head and said nothing more.

He pointed his finger towards Yinyin and lightly stroked it.

Suddenly.

The dead jade in Yinyin's hand turned into powder and scattered in the wind.

"I told you this is a gift for you."

Shi Xuan's expression became even sadder. "You are my friends. I won't harm you."

He walked forward and looked at Jiang Jian.

"Jiang Jian, do you want to help me?"

Shi Xuan's eyes were filled with pleading.

Jiang Jian thought for a moment, took out the dead man's jade, and was about to speak.

Shi Xuan's eyes suddenly turned cold.

His face was distorted and became extremely hideous. His whole body turned into gray gas, directly enveloping Jiang Jian!

"See you Jiang!"

Seeing this scene, Yinyin's face changed drastically, the spiritual energy in her body roared, and her body turned into snowflakes in an instant.

But in the blink of an eye, they intertwined at the location where Jiang Jian was!

Her speed is already extremely fast.

But the girl in the white dress's palm still grabbed nothing!
"Jiang Jian!?"

Frost fluttered down in pieces, Yinyin stood up straight and looked around.

His expression was filled with worry, confusion and shock.

"Where did they go?"

Her face turned pale, and a terrible guess arose in her heart.

"Could it be."

"Going to the Underworld?"

at the same time.

Liu Tiezhu and Shan Ye's pupils contracted sharply, and their faces looked extremely ugly.

"See you Jiang!"

"Jiang Jian! Shi Xuan! Where did they go?!"

Several people searched everywhere but found no clues.

Only Yinyin stood by the river, staring at the place where the two disappeared, like a statue.

Jiang Zhao and Zhong Ling had already gotten off the cross-border shuttle and flew over.

"Where's Jiang Jian?"

Jiang Zhao stopped and his originally pleasant voice became a little hoarse unconsciously.

Yinyin stood there, not saying a word.

Zhong Ling asked anxiously, "Where did they go?"

Yinyin recovered, her heart aching as if being stabbed by needles. She murmured, "I'm sorry, I should have stopped him earlier."

Only the dead can go to the underworld.

Living creatures that enter the earth never come out.

This has been an ironclad fact for hundreds of years in the four realms of Earth, Moon and Earth.

Jiang Zhao stood beside her, silent.

Silver light roared between the cold pupils.

"Zhao Zhao, do you want to report to the school?"

Zhong Ling's eyes were red and she was at a loss. She pulled Jiang Zhao's arm and almost cried out.

Liu Tiezhu strode over, looked at Yinyin, and said in a deep voice, "Immediately report to the Divine Envoy of the Prefecture Realm that Jiang Jian, a Level 5 gifted student, has been sucked into the entrance to the Underworld. Let the Divine Envoy think of a solution!"

Yamaha, on the other hand, managed to remain calm, turned on his ID device, and said, "I'm here to report to the school."

A few minutes later.

Yinyin's fingers trembled as she took off the identification device, her little face as pale as paper.

Everyone's eyes were all looking at her.

The girl in the white dress moved her lips, her expression painful, and she couldn't speak.

"Yinyin!"

Liu Tiezhu shouted coldly, "What did the Divine Envoy say?"

The girl in the white dress cried a little: "Father said that once you enter the underworld, you are dead and can never come back."

She squatted down and knelt on the river bank, her shoulders twitching from time to time, and her skirt scattered like blooming white flowers.
