Soul Returns
Chapter 316 The Return of the Soul
The treasure ship left those creatures from Youdu far behind, and its speed was getting faster and faster, which had never happened before!
On the deck, Pangong Tso and the others hurriedly grabbed the railing to avoid being thrown out: "Could it be that the little devil Qin Mu used the silver helmet to drive the boat?"
Pangong Co looked at Qin Mu, but saw that Qin Mu was also holding the railing and was not wearing a silver helmet. It was obvious that he was not the one driving this treasure ship.
Pangong Tso was slightly stunned. If Qin Mu was not driving the boat, then who was driving this treasure ship?
Is there a terrifying existence hiding on the ship, or is there a ghost on board?
Ever since they came to this strange ship, strange things have happened one after another. So far, they have not fully explored the ship, but have encountered strange events again and again. It's really scary to think about it.
The treasure ship was speeding through the Youdu world. The Youdu world was completely dark, with no sky or earth. It was really terrifying to sail in the vast darkness.
They sailed like this for an unknown amount of time when suddenly there was a crash that almost knocked everyone off the boat. Several soldiers and the great wizard lost their balance and were immediately thrown out of the boat. As soon as they fell into the darkness outside the boat, their flesh and bones suddenly melted away, turning into a pile of bones that fell to the ground.
"There's land below!" someone exclaimed.
Qin Mu looked down and saw that the treasure ship had crashed into the top of a mountain, creating a big hole in the mountain. It was this collision that caused those soldiers and wizards to be thrown away.
The mountain was rapidly receding into the distance, and one could vaguely see stretches of land beneath the mountain. However, the strange thing was that the land was not connected to one another, like islands floating in the darkness.
Boom——
The collision of two huge pieces of land was an extremely intense scene. The land plates squeezed each other, and suddenly thousands of large volcanoes erupted on these lands. Magma rushed into the sky with billowing black smoke, reaching a height of two or three hundred miles, which was extremely spectacular.
Countless thunders flashed between the thick clouds and magma, tearing the sky apart. The cooled rocks fell like rain, a horrific rock rain. The huge rocks were smashed with incredible power, like a comet impact, dragging long tails of fire.
The earth was shaking, and lava rain, rock rain and acid rain fell together, it was like the end of the world.
The treasure ship passed through the heavy rain, and everyone on the ship immediately burst out their vitality and held up large shields to block the strange rain to avoid being crushed to death.
Suddenly, there was a clanging sound. This time it was not lava rain, but diamonds (called diamonds in ancient times). Fist-sized diamonds fell from the sky like rain. They were the product of thunder and lightning strikes, covering the entire ship.
The treasure ship tilted, sweeping away all the lava and diamonds on the ship, and then it bypassed a large volcano and headed into the distance.
The volcano was full of magma flowing from the crater to the bottom of the mountain like a fire dragon. Qin Mu looked hurriedly and was suddenly shocked to see that in the midst of the earth-shaking and destructive scene, there were actually millions of people walking up the mountain.
These people lowered their heads and walked silently in this doomsday scene, walking like zombies. Every step seemed extremely difficult, but they still moved forward, as if there was a fatal attraction ahead.
At the front, many people had already walked to the crater on the top of the mountain, and then jumped into the volcano without any consciousness, and were immediately submerged by the lava flow that was rushing into the sky!
In addition to this big volcano, there are thousands of other volcanoes on this continent, and in addition to this continent, there are thousands of other continents.
How many people have struggled to walk in the apocalypse and thrown themselves into the volcano? I’m afraid it’s impossible to count them!
"These people are not people, they are ghosts!"
Qin Mu was shocked, he could see that these were the souls of the dead, without bodies, and not all of them were human souls, there were also souls of various exotic beasts, monsters, dragons and phoenixes, and even demons.
The treasure ship passed sideways between the volcanoes, and countless souls were walking among the volcanoes.
Volcanoes erupted one after another, with fiery red lava rising into the sky and the sound was deafening.
Pangong Co looked pale, and murmured in a trembling voice: "Huangquan, Huangquan..."
Qin Mu was slightly stunned, not knowing what this guy was talking about.
"What Huangquan?"
"They are going to hell!"
Pangong Tso suddenly shouted at the top of his lungs: "This is the world after we die! We are in Tubo's corner!"
Qin Mu suddenly shuddered and finally understood what Pangong Tso said. The ship they were on was sailing between the two horns of Tubo. These continents were not continents, but cross-sections of the two horns of Tubo!
Tubo Jiuyue, where Jiuyue means nine bends, refers to the fact that Tubo’s double horns are like a river with nine bends and turns.
The two horns of Tubo are also called Jiuqu Yellow Spring, which means two Yellow Springs.
Qin Mu couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling. Huangquan was quite a descriptive term, because these volcanoes were constantly erupting, and magma was spreading across the sky, illuminating the layers of continents. From a distance, they looked like yellow or red rivers.
But these two horns are a little too big!
Is this still a god?
“Hehe, hehe…”
Pangong Tso had obviously suffered a deep blow. He showed some madness and craziness at this moment, muttering: "This is the truth I have seen... I can't die, I must not die, whoever wants to die can die, I must live..."
The treasure ship finally passed through the continent and sailed away. Qin Mu looked back and could finally see the full picture of the two horns. Magma erupted from the continents, connecting them together. The upper continent was the sky of the continent below.
The countless continents connected together in this way formed nine twists, which looked like the Nine Bends of the Yellow Spring from a distance.
Countless souls were drawn in from countless worlds, came to these continents, and jumped into the underworld.
However, these are just the huge horns of Tu Bo!
He looked down. He had no idea how long the horns were. They penetrated deeply into the darkness with no end in sight. Under the horns should be Tu Bo's head. According to rumors, he had a tiger's head and the horns were his ox horns. However, Qin Mu could not see where his head was with his eyesight.
Qin Mu shrank his head and made up his mind that the Tu Bo Agreement must not be signed carelessly. If the Tu Bo Agreement is signed carelessly and it takes effect, he will never be able to reverse it!
He felt sad, but his father still signed the Tubo Agreement.
The agreement with Tubo is difficult to cancel once it is signed.
The treasure ship was moving faster and faster until it came to a piece of land. This was a world of collapse and death, shrouded in darkness. Paper boats floated out of the darkness, carrying the souls of the dead.
Many paper boats slid past the treasure ship and drifted towards the land of Jiuyue. The souls on the boats were ragged and dilapidated. They were all from the Heavenly Demon Clan, but they were not as ferocious as the ones Qin Mu had seen in Daxu. Instead, they were worried about old age, sickness and death.
Thousands of paper boats floated by, and it was obvious that a large number of demons had died. Qin Mu frowned. Under normal circumstances, it was impossible for so many demons to die. Even if a large-scale war broke out, it was impossible for so many people to die at the same time.
"The soul has returned——"
There was a faint vibration in the dark space and time. It was a demon god shouting across the world, chanting in demon language. Qin Mu looked in the direction where the sound came from, and vaguely saw a demon god with eight arms and four heads standing in the dark starry sky and crying. He couldn't see or hear it clearly across the world.
"It sounds like the cry of the Demon King Dutian..."
He was slightly startled. The figure standing in another destroyed world looked like the Demon King of Dutian. His power was so strong that even the destroyed Dutian world could hardly confine his figure and voice. He was calling out to the souls of his own people across the Dutian world, trying to bring back the souls of his dead people.
"Soul, come back!
You should not go down to this secluded city.
Tubo has nine tribes, and their horns are pointed.
The flesh is thick and the thumb is bloody, and people are always chasing after him.
It has a tiger head and eyes, and its body is a bit like an ox.
These are all sweet to people.
Come back! I'm afraid I'll leave some disaster behind.
Soul, come back! Enter the gate of cultivation.
Gong Zhu is recruiting you, please go ahead..."
As the treasure ship sailed, the demonic language of the Dutian Demon King gradually became weaker and weaker, and it was unclear what he was crying about. The treasure ship had already moved away from the Dutian world that was in destruction. It was precisely because the Dutian world was in destruction that so many Dutian demons continued to die.
Qin Mu looked back, watching the countless paper boats floating from the Dutian world into the Netherworld, and felt pity in his heart. Perhaps this would be the future of their world.
After a long time, they came to another dark continent. The darkness was illuminated by dots of divine light, and it was dim and hazy, and there were still some creatures from the underworld moving around in the darkness.
The speed of the treasure ship gradually slowed down, and everyone on the ship could finally see what those divine lights were. They were the light emitted by the statues in each village, and some were divine lights emitted by ancient ruins.
They came to the ruins in the darkness.
Qin Mu's heart was slightly moved. At night, after darkness fell, Daxu actually bordered Youdu!
A part of Daxu overlaps with Youdu. For the creatures in Daxu, it should be two worlds superimposed on each other. At night, the creatures from Youdu will come out and move around. At this time, the Youdu world takes the lead and suppresses the real world, but during the day, the real world will cover the Youdu world.
And in the darkness, where the light shines is the real world, and every point of light is the entrance to reality.
In other words, if they enter a ruin or village protected by a statue of a god, they can leave Youdu and return to reality!
The treasure ship sailed here with the purpose of sending them back to the real world.
The speed of the treasure ship was getting slower and slower, and finally the destination of the ship could be seen. There was an ancient ruin in front of it, emitting amazing light, which forced back the darkness. There was also a towering palace there, but it was already in ruins. Only the towering statues of gods still emitted light that illuminated the darkness.
The treasure ship slowly stopped and floated above the ruins. Below, many strange beasts were quietly crawling in the ruins, and some passers-by lived in peace with the strange beasts, hiding from the invasion of darkness together.
They all raised their heads and looked curiously at the ship that suddenly appeared.
Qin Mu summoned two white bats and the dragon unicorn and jumped off the boat. Pangong Tso also jumped off the boat with many followers.
"Great Honored One..." A wizard king looked at Qin Mu, his eyes flashing with a questioning look.
Pangong Tso shook his head: "We are in Daxu, we should follow the rules of Daxu and not make trouble."
Qin Mu looked up at the ship with a complicated expression. The treasure ship slowly turned, changed direction, and finally sailed away from the ruins and into the darkness.
The man in the tree should have returned to Youdu on the treasure ship to look for Qin Mu's family.
