Chapter 1667 Four Secret Realms
In the void, there was total darkness, but as a flash of white lightning cut through the void, the entire void suddenly lit up, and through this light, an unimaginably huge body stood above the void.
His hands were raised in the air, but there was a spot of darkness between them. The darkness was so pure that even the fleeting light in the void was pulled out into strips of pale white silk threads, which instantly merged into the darkness, and the entire void fell into darkness again.
I don’t know how long it took, but a pitch-black black hole suddenly appeared in front of me. A layer of white light flickered outside the black hole. In the blink of an eye, the black hole expanded countless times, as if enveloping the entire void.
The world was spinning, and everything was reduced to nothingness.
"Ah~~" Xiao Lin screamed and suddenly opened his eyes with a frightened expression. Only when he saw the scene clearly did he breathe a sigh of relief.
"Brother Xiao, you're awake. You've been in a coma for half a month. Fortunately, mother has already refined an antidote, and the Tianji Powder in your body has been eliminated." Huang Cui came to Xiao Lin's side and said with joy on her face.
Xiao Lin was slightly stunned when he saw this. He lowered his head and saw Xiao Hei lying on the edge of his bed. He couldn't help but feel a little warm in his heart.
From Huang Cui's expression of joy mixed with a bit of nervousness, Xiao Lin understood that after he was injured, it was Xiao Hei who didn't let anyone get close to him. Of course, this was also Xiao Hei's way of protecting himself.
"Xiao Hei, don't be rude." Xiao Lin scolded Xiao Hei weakly.
Xiao Hei whimpered twice, then turned into a black light and entered the beast ring.
"Brother Xiao, your pet is really loyal. It appeared after you fell unconscious and didn't let anyone get close to you. It even fed you the elixir."
"Thank you Miss Huang. This Tianji Powder is one of the Ten Deadly Poisons. Xiao has heard of it a long time ago, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful. It can devour and dissolve the mana and blood power of immortal cultivators. Moreover, it seems that the stronger the mana, the faster it can devour and dissolve. It is really terrifying."
“Yes, even immortals would turn pale at the mention of Tianji Powder. It is one of the most powerful poisons in the world. It is even rumored that the method of refining it has been lost long ago. I don’t know where Huang Jing found it.” Huang Cui’s pretty face was full of dejection. This turmoil had reduced the strength of the Snow World a lot. Two Mahayana elders, one died and the other was injured. There were more than a dozen Tribulation Crossing cultivators who fell, almost accounting for half of the Tribulation Crossing cultivators in the Snow World.
It was all due to the ambitions of Elder Huang Feng and Huang Jing. This made Huang Cui, who was unaware of the cruelty of the world of immortal cultivation, feel sad from the bottom of her heart.
“Tianji Powder was originally brought down from the fairyland by our immortal descendants and has been treasured in the treasury of the Snow God Temple. Thousands of years ago, Huang Jing was allowed by this master to enter the treasury to choose three treasures because of his merits. Unexpectedly, he took Tianji Powder with him, which led to this disaster.” Along with the voice, a woman in palace dress walked in from outside. The woman was tall and wore a glazed silk robe. Behind her followed two maids who were about thirty years old. There was a faint aura on their bodies. One of them was Madam Han that Xiao Lin had met, Huang Cui's biological mother.
"Ah, it turns out that it is the Snow Lord who has arrived. Cui'er is here to pay her respects." Huang Cui looked frightened and was about to salute.
When the woman in palace dress flicked her sleeves slightly, Huang Cui felt a huge force coming at her, making it impossible for her to salute. She could only cup her hands and then stand quietly.
"Xiao Lin greets the Snow Lord. I am injured and cannot perform the ceremony. Please forgive me."
"Brother Xiao, there is no need to be so polite. To be honest, I can be where I am today thanks to Brother Xiao. Our Snow World also relies on Brother Xiao's kindness." The Snow Lord bowed to Xiao Lin and spoke.
"Master Snow, you are too kind. To be honest, I was looking for the elixir that could cure my elder brother. I didn't want to interfere in the affairs of the Snow World. However, the two elders were so aggressive that I had no choice but to defend myself. To be honest, I have to apologize."
"Brother Xiao doesn't know the inside story. As the saying goes, ignorance is no fault. Also, I want to ask you, Brother Xiao, are you the young palace master of the human race's Mitian Palace, and the second brother of the great spiritual master Huan Tianmou?" Lord Xue suddenly said.
Xiao Lin was stunned for a moment. He had not mentioned his origins to anyone after entering this snowy world. He only told Madam Han the purpose of his visit.
Could it be that the Snow World is not a closed world, and the Snow Lord is not indifferent to the affairs of the spiritual world, or even that the influence of the Snow World has long extended into the spiritual world?
Without waiting for Xiao Lin to ask, the Snow Lord smiled and said, "Although the Snow World is isolated from the outside world, it is not blind. Now in the Holy Moon Continent, of the 18 regions of the Holy North, the human race occupies nearly five regions and has gradually grown into a force that cannot be ignored in the Holy North. Originally, the outside world always thought that the human race only gave birth to one great spiritual master, Huan Tianmou, but thousands of years ago, Murong Yuntian suddenly appeared and joined forces with Huan Tianmou to kill the newly promoted great spiritual master Hua Piaoluo in one fell swoop. This incident has spread to the Immortal and Mortal Sea, and made the human race the first super race in the Holy North in one fell swoop."
Xiao Lin was stunned when he heard this, he himself had never thought of all this. Murong Yuntian only made a move once and then disappeared again. Because Xiao Lin understood that Murong Yuntian only envied the mandarin ducks and not the immortals. He had put a lot of effort and even went to the extent of rebuilding the rules just to comprehend the first of the ten rules, the mysterious reincarnation rule, just for his confidante who followed him. It can be said that he has faded out of the world of immortal cultivation and become a free wanderer.
But even so, other races obviously do not see it that way. The two great spiritual masters are basically unique among the many forces in the entire spiritual world. This makes many surrounding races begin to fear the human race.
At this point, the Snow Lord sighed softly and said, "It seems that the great trend of heaven and earth still favors your race. From living in the remote Northern Sky Fragment Realm and being bullied by others, in just a few thousand years, you have not only occupied nearly five domains, but also produced two great spiritual masters. With such strength, I am afraid that if you are given another tens of thousands of years, many other races will bow down to you, the human race."
"We humans follow the way of heaven and do not like killing. In the spirit world, there are thousands of races competing with each other. Even the thousands of races within our human sphere of influence are all living and working in peace and prosperity. Why do we have to fight each other to the death?"
"It's actually a dispute over resources and interests. There is an unwritten rule in the spiritual world, that is, one domain can usually produce one spiritual master saint ancestor, which is considered normal. If two spiritual masters are born, resources will begin to be scarce. Only in four domains can a great spiritual master saint be born. More than that will also lead to resource scarcity and tension. The major races in the world of immortal cultivation are like pyramids. There must be enough land to accommodate a large enough base for the pyramid. Similarly, the size of the base also determines the height of the pyramid and the number of people who can stand on it." The Snow Lord said slowly.
"The Snow Lord may be right." Xiao Lin sighed softly in his heart. He himself understood very well that the reason why the human race could live in harmony with thousands of races was that it had only been a few thousand years since the human race moved from the Northern Sky Shattered Realm to the possession of nearly five regions. It was still in a period of vigorous development. If they wanted to occupy all the resources, it would take at least tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years.
When that day really comes, as the Snow Lord said, resources will be in short supply, and conflicts between humans and other races will inevitably grow. When conflicts accumulate to a certain extent, a war in the world of immortal cultivation will naturally break out.
"Han Mang'er, Cui'er, both of you go out. I have something to say to Brother Xiao alone."
Huang Cui was slightly stunned when she heard this, but when she saw her mother winking at her, she lowered her head, followed her mother out of the house, and closed the door behind her.
Xiao Lin was also a little puzzled. Could it be that the Snow Lord wanted to discuss some secrets with him?
After everyone left, the Snow Lord waved his sleeves and released a large green light, which enveloped the entire room including all the corners, then penetrated into it and disappeared.
Xiao Lin knew that the Snow Lord had cast a soundproof barrier, and it was obvious that what she wanted to say was indeed a confidential matter.
Sitting on a stool nearby, the Snow Lord looked at Xiao Lin, and after a moment's silence, he spoke: "Brother Xiao, have you ever heard of the Ten Yuan Society Buddha Hell Tribulation?"
"I've heard of it." Xiao Lin nodded, without showing too much surprise. The Ten Yuan Club Buddha Hell Tribulation is a periodic tribulation of the Holy Moon Continent. It seems to occur once every ten Yuan Clubs. One Yuan is 129,600 years, and Ten Yuan Clubs is 1,296,000 years. During this time, even an existence like the Holy Ancestor Ling Zun will die of old age and disappear as smoke as long as he does not ascend to the fairyland.
So although there are legends about this disaster in the spiritual world, no one knows why it happened and how cruel it was.
As the leader of the Immortal Descendants, could it be that Lord Xue knows the origin of the Shiyuan Society's Buddha Hell Tribulation?
Xiao Lin remained calm and waited quietly. He knew that the Snow Lord had dismissed everyone and kept him here specifically, which meant that he must have something very important to tell him. He didn't need to ask, the other party would naturally tell him.
Sure enough, after a moment of silence, the Snow Lord spoke up, "The four great secret realms, earth, fire, water, and wind. Brother Xiao has experienced two of them, so he must have understood that in this spiritual world, there were immortals who came to the mortal world."
"Snow Lord actually knows that Xiao has entered the Wind-Borne Secret Realm and the Water-Borne Secret Realm? Could it be that there are two more secret realms? But I don't know where they are? Could it be that the descendants of the immortals are related to the true immortals who have come to the mortal world?" Xiao Lin asked several questions in a row, which made the Snow Lord smile.
"The four great secret realms are the Earth Sha Secret Realm, the Fire Gang Secret Realm, the Water Blade Secret Realm, and the Wind Worm Secret Realm. These four secret realms were built by four True Immortals who came to the mortal world with their supreme magical powers. Their purpose was to suppress a terrifying existence."
"A terrifying existence?" Xiao Lin was slightly stunned.
"Yes, in the four secret realms, there are suppression arrays built by the four true immortals based on their own primordial spirits. Every ten Yuanhui, the array will encounter the period of the four suns converging. At that time, the suppression array will be very weak. When the array loosens, it will cause the arrays that suppress the terrible existence under the four arrays to begin to loosen. At this time, the stupa tide will erupt, which is the ten Yuanhui stupa hell disaster."
"Could it be that those Futu people were summoned by that terrifying existence?" Xiao Lin showed a surprised expression on his face. Although he had heard many versions of the Futu Hell Tribulation, there was no doubt that what he heard from the Snow Lord was the clearest and most logical.
The Snow Lord nodded and said, "The Futu tribe is a huge tribe. This tribe has a characteristic, that is, there is only one mother, and the rest are all males. I believe you have also witnessed the terrifying nature of the Futu tribe in the Shuizha secret realm, right?"
Xiao Lin nodded and said, "Especially the Buddha King, whose power is comparable to that of a Great Spiritual Lord. It was extremely dangerous at the time, and Xiao Lin was lucky enough to banish it into the void of the universe. Otherwise, the entire Northern Sky Region would have suffered a devastating disaster."
"You banished the Buddha King into the void of the universe. I can guarantee that he will be able to return to the spirit world safely. This is also the gift that the Buddha Clan has when they reach the level of the Buddha King. It is called the method of moving the soul back to the heaven. The Buddha Clan, because they were born from the same mother, have the ability to communicate with each other's minds. No matter where the Buddha King is, as long as there is any Buddha Clan member in the spirit world, it can use the method of moving the soul back to the heaven and exchange its soul with that Buddha Clan member. Although its strength will be greatly reduced in a short period of time after the exchange, as long as it is given a few thousand years, it will be able to transform into the Eight-Winged Buddha King again and descend to the spirit world."
Hearing this, Xiao Lin was also shocked. He finally understood why there had been no news about the Buddha King. It seemed that he was hiding in some remote corner, recovering his magical powers.
"Since the Futu tribe has only one mother body, where is this mother body?" Xiao Lin suddenly thought of this and asked.
Xiao Lin had read a legend about the Futu tribe. It was that every time the Futu Hell Tribulation was opened, there would usually be two or three Futu kings descending and commanding countless Futu tribesmen to wreak havoc on the Holy Moon Continent, and every time they would kill all the living creatures on the Holy Moon Continent.
I think this is also the reason why there are so few detailed scenes of the Shiyuanhui Buddha Hell Tribulation passed down.
"The mother body of the Futu tribe is extremely powerful and usually will not descend to the spirit world in person. After all, the spirit world is a big world, and the power of the heaven is still very strong. No matter how powerful the mother body of the Futu tribe is, it cannot contend with the heaven of the spirit world. Once it descends, it will be suppressed, and both its realm and magical powers will be greatly reduced. Therefore, usually only the Futu King is sent to command countless Futu tribes to invade the Holy Moon Continent."
"Does that mean that even if we kill all the invading Futu tribe, after a million years, countless Futu tribes will be born again from the Futu tribe's mother body and invade the Holy Moon Continent again?"
"That's right." The Snow Lord looked at Xiao Lin, nodded and replied.
