Lao Tzu is Ji Gong

However, with the Holy Buddha System, Li Xiuyuan was like having a guiding light, maximizing his cultivation speed and reducing many backtracking steps. This is one of the reasons why Li Xiuyuan's cultivation speed seemed even more monstrous in the eyes of others.

When Li Xiuyuan finished speaking, he was expressing his understanding to these people he valued, helping them elevate their spiritual realm. But it was also a form of self-encouragement: this is the path he chose, and he must walk it to the end, even if he has to crawl on his knees.

This world is so cruel that even brothers can kill each other for profit.

At this moment, he was already the King of the Five Paths of Reincarnation in the eleventh level of hell. He had finally arrived here after going through countless hardships, but he found that the situation here was quite different from what he had imagined.

Although I have never actually been here, I once heard Yama say at a dinner that there is no life here, and even Yama himself is unwilling to come here more often.

However, there has always been a legend that the world below is even more cruel. Perhaps the first ten levels of hell are already very cruel for humans, but there is another version of the story that the last eight levels of hell are absolutely terrifying compared to the first ten.

It's easy to imagine what kind of environment will follow.

The Five Paths Reincarnation King was already prepared, and with his own strength as a Great Luo Golden Immortal, no ghost would dare to mess with him.

However, what appeared in his eyes at this moment was a blood-red light that blotted out the sun, a gloomy and blood-red Asura world.

The world was utterly silent, devoid of any other life, with towering golems standing majestically, all stained with crimson blood. These sprawling demon castles bore an uncanny resemblance to the heads of demons.

Standing tall in this gloomy inferno, endless skeletons float. Seven or eight enormous mountains of bones rise majestically, and a raging river of blood roars past the statues, castles, and bone mountains… The bodies of gods and immortals hang from these mountains of bones. Hanging before the demon castle, they retain the horrific forms of torture they endured before death, still maintaining the postures they had in life.

"Wasn't it said that there is no life down here?" The Five Paths Reincarnation King was puzzled by the scene before him. What was going on? Could it be that besides himself and the other ten people who governed hell, there were other people here?

But I had never heard Yama mention it. If I were anyone else, it would be understandable, but I am Yama's most capable assistant. How could I not have heard a word about it?

However, we have to bite the bullet and go for it now, otherwise it will be really hard to explain when we get back. We can only wait until this matter is over before asking the King of Hell.

The Five Paths Reincarnation King continued his heavy steps. He really wanted to go fast and slow at the same time. He wanted to go fast because he knew that if the people behind him caught up, he would have no other chance.

However, a sense of fear had crept into his heart without him realizing it. The feeling this place evoked was overwhelming, and his heart was churning with barely suppressed dread.

Li Xiuyuan was quite satisfied with his spatial test, which included a touch of the laws of time. Therefore, after trapping everyone for a long time, he had no other ideas.

He knew that they had used the Yuan Tu and A Bi swords for this demon. He didn't want to interfere too much; everything was under his control. He had been using his divine power to disperse his primordial spirit for too long, and it was time to return to the Pangu Palace to continue his comprehension.

This remote control power is still a bit hard to bear. Even though I am a saint, I still can't help but feel a bit powerless.

If these five people knew that the one controlling them wasn't the real person behind the mystery, who knows what thoughts would arise in their minds.

Does such a thing really exist in this world?

After Li Xiuyuan left, the bewildering forest that trapped the red-bottomed macaque, Sun Wukong in the world of ice and fire, the Six-Eared Macaque, the Golden Cicada on the illusory Mount Ling, and the Antarctic Longevity Emperor in the snow mountain, all felt like experiencing a dream more real than reality itself. It was all real, yet all fake.

When falsehood becomes truth, falsehood also becomes truth; when truth becomes falsehood, truth also becomes falsehood.

The five people who emerged from their predicament looked at each other as if they were long-lost relatives. After experiencing such torment, their only hope was that they could be with just one person, whether an enemy or a friend, as long as they could feel that they still existed!

Chapter 908 A Different World

Continuing from the last time, Pigsy was eating chicken for half the meal when he suddenly stopped eating.

Sha Wujing was speechless. What on earth was his second brother up to? Why was he making such a racket? Was he trying to kill him?

I still can't figure out what this guy is up to.

However, seeing Zhu Bajie's confident expression, Sha Wujing seemed to have developed a slight sense of admiration for him. This subtle change made Sha Wujing wonder when he suddenly realized that his second senior brother could also be so handsome.

While leisurely enjoying the expression on his silly junior brother's face, Pigsy was already plotting his own scheme in his mind.

The current situation seems far from optimistic.

There were only two of them on my side, Sha Wujing and Sha Wujing, but then we had to look at the enemies we were about to face.

First, Bu Jingyun and Nie Feng from the Demonic Sect; second, Erlang Shen and Xiaotianquan from the Heavenly Palace; and third, Long Xiangtian, the master of this Dragon Mansion.

These are all formidable opponents, and I certainly couldn't beat them in a fight, except for this mortal, Long Xiangtian.

But when it comes to intellect, this young master of the Long family seems to have returned to his battlefield.

This left Pigsy feeling utterly helpless, speechless at his own inability to do anything right. Adding to the woes was his junior brother, who was, to put it nicely, honest and simple, but to put it bluntly, stupid.

How to get what he wanted from these people was a real headache for Pigsy.

However, this wasn't the only person thinking this way. Besides Zhu Bajie, three other people shared the same idea.

However, for Erlang Shen, the strongest being naturally has the power to decide, and Bu Jingyun and Nie Feng are both quite strong. Adding Bu Jingyun as a strategist would make for a good combination.

The most pitiful one is this young master of the Long family; he's truly helpless. The difference in strength is just too great; he can't possibly turn the tables so easily.

The guards and servants in the Dragon Mansion were utterly useless to them; if the other party could eat people, they wouldn't even be enough to fill their teeth.

Faced with a situation even more difficult than that of Zhu Bajie and his companion, Long Xiangtian's mind was practically about to explode.

His current Golden Immortal Perfection level strength is just a pretty face, good to look at but useless.

Inside the tunnel of the Long family ancestral hall, the Howling Celestial Dog rubbed against the tunnel walls and, relying on its keen nose, inquired about the surroundings. Combining the information gathered, it wondered, "Judging from this, it was dug out by hand. Could it be a place to store the treasures collected by the Long family?"

Erlang Shen rolled his eyes and said, "Did someone dig this out or did it come out on its own? Is it not for storing treasures or for sleeping?"

After being told that by its master, the celestial dog really had no temper left. If it were anyone else, it would probably have been bitten to death by itself, instead of arguing back.

The Celestial Hound thought to himself, "You've said all the nice things, haven't you? If I hadn't said them, would you have known?"

But I can only keep it to myself.

Erlang Shen said, "Hurry up and find some useful information, otherwise you'll have really eaten those peaches for nothing. Do you think you could get such a good tonic on your own? It's only because of my uncle."

These words ruthlessly trampled on Xiaotianquan's self-esteem. He didn't know why his master was so hostile towards him today, acting like he was on fire, retorting to everything he said.

Suspicious, really suspicious.

But unfortunately, no matter how wronged he felt, he had no choice but to swallow it down.

Following closely behind, Bu Jingyun and Nie Feng went to great lengths to avoid being discovered. They crouched low, kept their breathing low, and moved extremely slowly.

Their strategy is to rather lose track of the enemy than be discovered, since the enemy's strength is still on their side. If they are caught out, they will be beaten up.

Nie Feng was panting heavily behind him, too exhausted to make any more jokes. Bu Jingyun said, "Conserve your energy, we have a tough battle to fight later."

However, Nie Feng had some doubts. Why was his physical strength declining so quickly? This was not normal. Under normal circumstances, he could probably walk like this a dozen times without any problem.

The group moved slowly through the tunnel, not knowing how long they had walked, until finally they saw a light ahead: "There's light!"

The Celestial Hound barked excitedly, and Erlang Shen saw it too, saying, "I'm not blind, what are you talking about?"

Once again, the celestial hound, ruthlessly suppressed, fell silent in despair.

The two quickened their pace, seeing the hope of being out of the way, moving incredibly fast. They noticed the light growing stronger and stronger, and wondered, "Could this hole lead to something else?"

However, the moment Erlang Shen climbed out, he cursed, "What kind of hell is this place?!"

If it weren't for his uncle's repeated calls for him to come out, he would still be leisurely resting in his True Lord's Mansion, and he would never have wanted to come here to suffer.

Following closely behind, Bu Jingyun and Nie Feng carefully climbed out of the cave entrance. There was only a small protrusion outside where they could stand.

Looking further down, there's at least another fifteen meters of height, and this place seems to be a windy spot, with very strong winds.

Bu Jingyun had no choice but to press himself against the cliff face to observe this wondrous place.

Nie Feng said, "I never imagined that such a place would exist in the Long family's mansion. It's truly remarkable."

Bu Jingyun said, "This is more than just complicated. I suspect that the changes in the Long family are closely related to this place. It should not be the work of human beings. We need to investigate carefully what it is."

Nie Feng asked, "Where did those two people who were in front of us go?"

What's even more awe-inspiring is that in the middle of this cave, there is a tree that is almost a hundred meters tall.

Chapter 909 The Emergence of a Secret.

Even if a dozen people were to encircle this tree, it might not be as thick as it is. Moreover, countless vines, as thick as telephone poles, are coiled around the top of this tree.

These vines intertwined, winding around almost everything they could reach. Their branches cascaded down from above like six separate streams, some hanging in the air, others already drooping to the ground.

If you look closely, you can see that many things are hanging from the branches leaning against the inside. These things are hidden behind the dense vines and are occasionally shaken by the wind, which is quite eerie.

"What the hell is this?" Nie Feng looked at the scene before him, and even with his strength as a Great Luo Golden Immortal, he could feel that everything was extraordinary.

"This shouldn't be man-made, it absolutely isn't man-made. There must be some kind of secret hidden within the Long family." Bu Jingyun calmly pondered everything, hoping to figure something out.

Unfortunately, no matter how hard he racked his brains, Bu Jingyun, who had only recently arrived in this world, couldn't come up with anything, no matter how clever he was.

Seeing that Erlang Shen and Xiaotianquan, who had been following him, had long since disappeared, he hurried after them to prevent them from getting the treasure too easily.

Nie Feng was in a line to the left and right.

The third wave to arrive here includes Long Xiangtian, the young master of the Long family, who is considered half of the owner of this place.

In his eyes, seeing such a scene beneath his family's ancestral hall was absolutely outrageous. "What the hell is this? How come I didn't know there was something like this beneath my house, let alone something this big?"

However, thinking back on the glory of his family, its decline, and his own rise, it all seems to have come and gone too quickly.

However, Long swore to the heavens that he would never let his family suffer again, so he had to deal with what was to come. He had already sensed that if everything went smoothly, his strength and even the power of his family would advance by leaps and bounds.

At that time, becoming the most powerful family in the capital will be perfectly legitimate.

Thinking about this wonderful future, Long Xiangtian's mind was filled with happiness. At that time, beautiful women and money would all come to him on their own initiative if he asked for them.

What's there to fuss about? Each of my brothers will be provided with five wives. Haha, hahaha!

"Slap!" A crisp slap pulled Long Xiangtian from his beautiful fantasy. He muttered, "This isn't even a hint yet, and I'm already thinking all sorts of things. That's not right. I need to hurry up and follow them to see what's going on." The slap Long Xiangtian gave himself seemed to not only calm him down but also to solidify his resolve.

By this time, Pigsy and Sandy had already returned to the mansion from the bustling market.

If we're talking about how well-guarded the Long Mansion is, it's so secure that even a fly couldn't get in.

However, it had no effect on these two guys from Buddhism, since their strength was undeniable; a Grand Luo Golden Immortal was not someone an ordinary mortal could contend with.

Without attracting the attention of the guards at the Long residence, the two quickly began searching the entire Long residence, inside and out. Pigsy, of course, went to Long Xiangtian's bedroom first.
