Chapter 2812: Ghost World
A thousand years had pa.s.sed and Su Zimo could enter the Blessed Heaven World again.
However, the time was not ripe yet. If he rashly headed to the Blessed Heaven World, there was a high chance that he would encounter a huge danger. Furthermore, that danger did not merely come from the Heavenly Eye race! For the past thousand years, Su Zimo would attempt to establish a connection with the Martial Dao Prime Body every once in a while during his cultivation. However, there was no response.
It had been 2,000 years since the two true bodies separated in the Netherworld. There was only one explanation for this situation—the Martial Dao Prime Body had yet to return to the upper world!
As the two true bodies were in two separate worlds and were separated by powerful world barriers, they could not communicate.
It had been 2,000 years since the Martial Dao Prime Body followed the Void Yaksha into the Ghost Dao. However, he could not return to the upper world still and no one knew what happened.
According to the Void Yaksha, the Ghost Dao was also an independent world that was on par with the upper world.
However, the Ghost Dao was different from the h.e.l.l Dao. The Ghost Dao was flawless and its laws were complete. Not only were there Emperor experts, there were even terrifying existences like Brahma Ghost Mother who was very likely a Great Emperor!
Although the Martial Dao Prime Body had stepped into the Martial Domain realm, he was only at lesser mastery of it. In terms of combat strength, he could suppress all Grotto-heaven realm Kings but it was difficult for him to win against quasi-Emperor experts.
With the h.e.l.l Suppression Tripod, Soul Lantern and Netherworld Treasure Mirror, he might be able to fight a quasi-Emperor.
There were way too many experts in the Ghost Dao who could threaten the Martial Dao Prime Body!
Su Zimo sighed gently and composed himself once more, continuing to cultivate the Dao.
No matter what the Martial Dao Prime Body experienced in the Ghost Dao, he could do nothing and could only leave the Martial Dao Prime Body to deal with it himself.
The Martial Dao Prime Body leaped into the Ghost Dao and could not control his body at all. He felt the world spin as though he had fallen into a gigantic vortex and lost his five senses instantly.
In fact, he could not even sense the pa.s.sage of time. Only a remnant of his spirit perception allowed him to determine that he was not in any danger.
The Void Yaksha was beside him and curled up with his eyes closed like a baby. The two of them could not communicate verbally or with their spirit consciousnesses. They could only let nature take its course and go with the flow.
It was a strange feeling.
Relying on his remaining spirit perception, the Martial Dao Prime Body tried his best to sense the outside world. It was as though he was in the long river of time. His vision was not dark but a colorful scene.
In this cycle of reincarnation, every single drop of blood in his body and his Essence Spirit seemed to be stripped out of his body and entered the void.
After an unknown period of time, the Martial Dao Prime Body seemed to have penetrated a pool of water. The ubiquitous feeling of being stripped away suddenly vanished!
“Hmm?”
The Martial Dao Prime Body tried his best to control his body and his five senses gradually recovered.
He took a deep breath and opened his eyes abruptly.
The surroundings were dark and the world was filled with a cold Heaven and Earth Essence Qi that seemed sinister without any light.
Of course, that darkness did not affect the eyesight of the Martial Dao Prime Body.
The Void Yaksha at the side gradually recovered as well. He stretched his body and his muscles. He took a look at his surroundings and a hint of excitement flashed through the depths of his eyes.
“This is the Ghost World.”
The Void Yaksha was all too familiar with the surrounding environment. “The h.e.l.l World is filled with a large amount of Nether Qi, and this is the Ghost Qi in the Ghost World.”
The Martial Dao Prime Body nodded.
Be it Ghost Qi or Nether Qi, they were based on Heaven and Earth Essence Qi. However, the energy inside was different.
“How long have we been traveling through the Six Paths of Reincarnation?” The Martial Dao Prime Body frowned and asked, “Why do I feel like it’s been more than a thousand years?”
“That’s possible, of course.”
The Void Yaksha said, “The path we took to enter the Ghost World is through the Six Paths of Reincarnation. The Six Paths of Reincarnation was originally a path for souls to reincarnate.”
“Living beings with bodies of flesh and blood like us have great resistance when traveling through the Six Paths of Reincarnation. It’s possible for us to experience hundreds or even thousands of years.”
The Martial Dao Prime Body pondered in silence.
Although they also crossed two independent worlds to head to the Netherworld from the h.e.l.l World, the h.e.l.l Yellow Springs was connected to the h.e.l.l World after all.
Therefore, at the connecting spot, they broke through the world barrier and crossed the two worlds.
The Netherworld and the Ghost Dao were not connected.
The two of them entered the Ghost Dao from the Netherworld and walked through the Six Paths of Reincarnation. That was why they floated continuously in the cycle of reincarnation and only descended into the Ghost World after an unknown period of time.
“According to what you said previously, the Ghost Dao, h.e.l.l Dao, Asura Dao and Beast Dao are all independent worlds that nurture living beings of different races. In other words, the world you descend upon depends on the pa.s.sageway you jump into from the entrance of the Six Paths of Reincarnation.”
The Martial Dao Prime Body asked, “What are the Human Dao and Heavenly Dao? Are they also two independent worlds?”
“I don’t think so.”
The Void Yaksha shook his head. “I’m not sure about the Human Dao and
Heavenly Dao either.”
The Martial Dao Prime Body frowned slightly.
That was strange. According to the rules of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, there should have been six independent worlds. However, the Human Dao and Heavenly Dao were different from the other four?
If the essence of the Six Daos was the same, what kind of world would the Human Dao and Heavenly Dao be and what living beings would be nurtured?
Were they just ordinary humans in the Human Dao?
What was there in the world of the Heavenly Dao?
The Six Paths of Reincarnation seemed to be shrouded in a layer of fog and could not be seen clearly.
Netherworld, Six Paths of Reincarnation, Nether River…
What was their relations.h.i.+p with the trichiliocosm?
Or rather, what was their relations.h.i.+p with the major chiliocosm?
Just as the Martial Dao Prime Body was deep in thought, the Void Yaksha seemed to be impatient and urged, “Let’s go. Let’s hurry so that we can help you return to the medium chiliocosm.”
Although the Martial Dao Prime Body remained calm on the surface, he suddenly felt wary!
The Void Yaksha had committed a huge crime in the Ghost World and was exiled by the Brahma Ghost Mother to the Nether River. Now that he had returned to his former home, he should have some reservations.
However, not only was the Void Yaksha not afraid at all, he even revealed a hint of excitement.
The Yaksha race was not kind to begin with!
Back in Bitter Springs h.e.l.l, not only was the Void Yaksha not grateful at all when the Martial Dao Prime Body saved him, he even wanted to kill the Martial Dao Prime Body!
In the end, it was only because the Martial Dao Prime Body suppressed the Void Yaksha forcefully with his powerful strength that the latter submitted.
Furthermore, he promised that he would definitely help the Martial Dao Prime Body return to the medium chiliocosm.
Later on, after entering the Netherworld, the Void Yaksha followed beside the Martial Dao Prime Body and had always been honest. Only then did the Martial Dao Prime Body gradually lower his guard.
Right now, the emotions revealed by the Void Yaksha inadvertently alarmed the Martial Dao Prime Body once more.
The Yaksha race was ferocious and cunning. It was not surprising for them to break their promise.
The Martial Dao Prime Body did not attack rashly.
This was the Ghost World and he was way too unfamiliar with it.
Since he was already here, there was no way out. He could only try his best to inquire about the situation of the Ghost World from the Void Yaksha and find a way to return to the medium chiliocosm before adapting to the situation..
