Chapter 44: The Netherworld’s Four Ten Thousand Tribulations, Longevity Peach Unlike Fuxi, Houtu possesses the authority to rule the underworld. The death energy of the underworld not only cannot cause any harm to Houtu, but can instead enhance her physical strength and essence. As for Xuanming, after Houtu's introduction, Fuxi also knew that Xuanming was also an innate god and demon born in the underworld. He was of noble birth and possessed certain authority in the underworld. He had known Houtu for billions of years. Hou Tu, Xuan Ming, and the outgoing Minghe, these three are the three most powerful innate gods and demons in the underworld. These three have also formed a hidden alliance to guard the safety of the underworld. In the dark passage of the underworld, dragon energy was lingering on Fuxi's body. With a clench of his five fingers, a wisp of underworld death energy was pinched by Fuxi. The light of Yi Dao flashed in his eyes, and the composition of this wisp of Netherworld death energy was constantly differentiated. Wisps of cloud-like vital energy particles emerged in Fuxi's eyes, evolving into many true meanings of the great Dao. Yin energy, turbid air, dead air, evil energy, vital energy, earth energy and many of the most basic vital energies are integrated with each other, and some of their essences are connected together to form this wisp of netherworld death energy. In terms of essence, the Netherworld Death Qi is not quickly replaced by the Dragon Emperor Qi in other people's bodies. This is a kind of vital energy that is close to the root of spiritual inspiration. If it is further sublimated, the Netherworld Death Qi will be the origin of the Netherworld. Fuxi himself evolved the two poles of life and death with the root of the spiritual light of Taoism, and the essence of the dead air of the underworld is also very consistent with the two poles of life and death. Fuxi took a wisp of the Netherworld death energy into his body, and the two poles of life and death separated the Netherworld death energy. Life and death intertwined into a spiral that swallowed up the Netherworld death energy.
Fuxi's body shook slightly, and the innate method among the eight methods in "Theory of Form" was slightly perfected and refined at this time. The essence of the innate law is to connect with the origin of heaven and earth and to sublimate one's own existence with the origin of heaven and earth. The nature of the dead air of the underworld is extremely high, close to the origin of heaven and earth. This wisp of dark death energy merged into Fuxi's body, pushing Fuxi to further get rid of the concept of death. If Fuxi could tame the death energy of the underworld or even the origin of the underworld, he should be able to get rid of the concept of death to a certain extent and ignore some of the naturally evolved death energy. After understanding the essence of the Netherworld Death Qi, Fuxi began to concentrate on refining the Netherworld Death Qi, using the innate method to reverse the original power in the Netherworld Death Qi and enhance his own divine and demonic origin. Xuanming, who was standing by, saw Fuxi begin to refine the death energy of the underworld, and a hint of surprise flashed in his cold eyes. Being able to grasp part of the essence of the Netherworld's death energy and forcibly refine it in such a short period of time, Fuxi's qualifications are no less than some innate gods and demons bred in the Netherworld. After traveling through the Netherworld Passage for three hundred years, Fuxi, Houtu and Xuanming finally arrived at the Netherworld. The lead-gray sky was boundless, with blood-red thunder flashing across from time to time, illuminating the sky and earth in flickering light. The wilderness was desolate on all sides, without any living creatures or plants. Only scattered ghosts were wandering on the dead land, ignorant and dull, without any life at all. All sorts of Netherworldly calamities continued to entangle and burst forth, destroying any existence and life between heaven and earth, turning into indescribable terror. Sky Dome Tribulation, Xun Wind Tribulation, Purple Punishment Tribulation, Skeleton Blood Tribulation, Skull Gu Tribulation, Red Blood Sky Thunder Tribulation, Yinming Guishui Tribulation, Earth Turbid Abyss Tribulation, Nine Mysterious Fate Tribulation, Death Hell Falling Heart Tribulation... Endless calamities are hidden in the void, scattered in every inch of space in the Netherworld. Although they are hidden but not revealed, even just sensing the terrifying calamities surging in the void is enough to discourage any cultivator who wants to enter the Netherworld. Everything in front of him made Fuxi's eyes reveal a touch of nostalgia. He had been struggling for a long time in such a world. The moment he stepped into the netherworld, Fuxi felt the calamity energy entangled with him. The power of the four hundred thousand calamities of the netherworld had locked him. Hou Tu's phoenix eyes condensed, and the power of the underworld authority blocked the underworld calamity sweeping in from all directions. A pink longevity peach appeared in her hand, and she handed it to Fuxi. Longevity peach, the spiritual root of the underworld, is the fruit of the big peach tree. This big peach tree suppresses the Dushuo Mountain in the extreme west of the underworld. It is one of the treasures that suppress the luck of the underworld, and Hou Tu is the owner of this big peach tree. The longevity peaches made from large peach wood have many magical uses. They can cleanse the soul, concentrate the spirit, remove dead air, restore vitality, and even reverse the two poles of life and death, turning death into life. For Fuxi, the biggest function of the longevity peach is to temporarily block the perception of Fuxi by the four hundred million calamities of the underworld. Swallowing the longevity peach can prevent the four calamities of the underworld from locking onto you for a certain period of time. This is the most convenient and safest way to avoid calamities in the underworld.
Fuxi opened his mouth and took a breath. The longevity peach transformed into a wisp of magical medicine essence and merged into his body. His soul and essence vibrated slightly. Fuxi immediately felt the sublimation and tempering of his own essence and soul. Fuxi's already powerful soul power increased by 30%, and its purity also increased a lot. As for the physical body, the two principles of life and death in Fuxi's body were greatly enhanced, and the concept of death in Fuxi was temporarily erased by this longevity peach. Before the essence of Shoutao's magical medicine is consumed, ordinary damage is of no use to Fuxi. The most important thing is that under the protection of the essence of this magical medicine, the netherworld calamity that was sweeping towards Fuxi was slowly retreating. After eating the longevity peach, Fuxi was equivalent to possessing the authority of the underworld and would no longer be targeted or attacked by the four hundred thousand calamities of the underworld. The golden axle in Hou Tu's hand fell in front of her, and the Tiandu Void Tribulation among the four hundred million tribulations of the Netherworld appeared out of thin air. A loud explosion sounded, and a large area of void exploded in front of Hou Tu. The constantly shattering void broke into countless fragments that spread in all directions. Almost instantly, a ravine stretching for tens of thousands of miles was torn out in front of Hou Tu and the other two. The Tiandu Void Tribulation itself is a kind of netherworld calamity that shatters the void of heaven and earth, and it is extremely threatening even to Fuxi and others. Hou Tu used her own power in the underworld to forcibly control this calamity, using the Heavenly Void Calamity to tear apart space and achieve a magical power similar to space shifting. Fuxi had not expected that Houtu could even interfere with and control the four hundred million calamities of the underworld. This made Fuxi doubt whether Houtu's power over the underworld was just ordinary power of the origin of heaven and earth, or power of the master of the underworld. Without the potential to become the ruler of the underworld in the future, the ancient Heavenly Dao would probably not have given Hou Tu such great power. "With the help of the space channel torn apart by the Heavenly Crossing Void Tribulation, we will be able to reach the location of the Yin World Heavenly Cabinet in a hundred years at most." Hou Tu walked in the front, the golden axis in her hand constantly controlling the explosion method of Tiandu Void Tribulation, extending the distance of the torn void. (End of this chapter)
