I Have Refined Qi For 3000 Years - 645. 12. Country of the Dead
“This is too unreasonable!”
“Obviously we are all companions who were born and died together. Why can you become a superior god and enjoy all the glory and wealth? My people and I must become sinners and live on the burden of the unreasonable crimes you made?!”
“You bastards! ungrateful dogs! I will kill you! I must kill you all!”
“Wait! I will pull you down from the throne of heaven and earth, and I will let your children and grandchildren burn in the fire forever and ever!”
In the dimness, Ivan’s mind flashed through segments of memory.
He saw a red-haired, tall male knight yelling angrily at some people.
The fragments of these memories flashed past, and then he woke up from the faintness.
“Hey, you finally woke up.”
When he opened his eyes, the familiar laughter appeared in his ears.
Ivan got up from the boat and looked to the side. Sure enough, he was in a small boat now, and the sullen old man who was squatting and unable to see his face was beside him, rowing the boat rhythmically.
“Oh it’s you.”
Ivan crossed his legs.
“Why am I here with you, I remember, I’m obviously in the underground of the forbidden country…”
“That’s because you died.”
The old man ridiculed like Ye Xiao.
“Challenging the demon god irresponsibly, and then being involved in its self-detonation, now everything there has collapsed, and you, also fell on my boat, I want to send you to the underworld.”
“What about my stuff?”
Ivan touched his body, and he was relieved to find that his armor and shield were still in the future.
“I am a boatman, not a thief.”
The old man looked at him with contempt, snorted, and said with disdain:
“Just the tatters picked from the cemetery on you, who wants it? And that shield can only be used by someone who has gained the power of a mountain knight, and it’s useless if I take it.”
“It turned out to be so.”
Ivan breathed a sigh of relief, and then thought of another thing.
Speaking of power, he killed the demon god in the lava lake, and logically speaking, he should have also gained the spirit of the demon god.
He closed his eyes and felt it, and as expected, he felt a spirit that was as hot as lava flowing slowly in his body.
“Hehehe, you are really lucky, you can bear the spirit of that monster.”
The old man saw his behavior and said with a smile:
“I originally planned to charge you a bit of a river crossing fee, but the spirit in your body is really unbearable to ordinary people, but you managed to endure it successfully, and it’s amazing.”
Ivan stopped the motion of induction and was silent.
“You may not know how that knight became that demon god.”
The old man chuckled while rowing:
“That involves an incredible taboo.”
“How is it?”
Ivan asked.
“Go to the underworld to find it yourself.”
The old man laughed and said:
“I remember, those stone chambers that record the lost history of that country fell from the ground into the underworld after undergoing a catastrophe. Everything you want to know is there, and there may be more in there. Regarding your history…but well.”
He said to Ivan in a tone as if telling a midnight ghost story:
“Now the underworld is full of demons. If you can find it, the premise is that you have not become the belly of the demons, hehehe—”
The boat drew ashore, in a never-ending darkness.
Ivan could only feel that the boat collided with something, and then heard the boatman whisper to him:
“The underworld is here, get off the boat.”
He exerted his last bit of kindness and kindness, raised the lantern on the boat to illuminate Ivan, allowing Ivan to see the small ferry that appeared in the dark, and did not let Ivan step on the icy bitter foot. Go to the bottom of the river.
“Can’t you send me back to the world directly now?”
Stepping on the land of the underworld, perhaps because of a deep dislike of the dark instinct, Ivan asked the old boatman.
“Rules are rules, knight.”
The old man said mockingly:
“If you can find another ferry here and ring that gong, I can send you back to the world.”
After all, he rowed the boat and disappeared into the darkness. After a while, Ivan finally couldn’t even hear the sound of his paddle.
In desperation, Ivan had to turn around and walk into the darkness.
After taking two steps, he began to ponder what the lava demon had dropped.
This time, because he fell into a coma after the demon god blew himself up, and then came directly to this underworld, so he didn’t know whether the demon god had dropped weapons and equipment like before.
Even if it did, when the entire floating island and even the underground of the forbidden country were bombed into the sky by the demon, there was no way to get it.
But Ivan had a feeling that what the demon god dropped this time was not weapons and equipment, but directly gave him a certain ability.
When he just woke up in the boat, he always felt that there was a flow of heat in his body, and he didn’t feel unhappy.
Following this current of heat, Ivan raised his hand and tried to mobilize this power. He soon succeeded. A group of red flames appeared on his palm. In the underworld where no fire can burn easily, this flame not only provides a way to defend himself, but also illuminates the road around him.
With the light of the fire, Ivan realized that he seemed to be walking on a rugged path, and in the darkness around him, something seemed to be running back and forth, giving him a very dangerous feeling.
After walking for a while, his hunch came true.
The monsters that sprang out of the darkness attacked him. These monsters had no eyes, like a potbellied human, or a spider walking on four legs, but their abdomens had sharp teeth and huge mouths, and the teeth in their big mouths were like ground meat. It’s normal, distributed in circles, with shredded meat and stench, very hideous and terrifying.
Although this monster was finally charred by his flames, it still bit Ivan’s arm by virtue of its numerical advantage.
“Those things are demons.”
I found a dark corner and put on a flower ring to contact Ivan, who was the girl tomb-keeper. While she was healing the wound on her arm and promoting the absorption of the spirit of the devil, she listened to her softly explain:
“Whether in the Dark Age or the Light Age, they are one of the greatest enemies faced by humanoid races such as humans, dwarves, and elves. They live in the never-ending darkness, with biological Flesh and soul food, even if the dead fall into their hands, they will be eaten by them and will be imprisoned in their stomachs forever. Unless someone kills the demon, the soul imprisoned in its stomach will never get it. relief.”
After a moment, she said again:
“But I didn’t expect you to go to the underworld now, Lord Knight. That’s a nuisance. You really were careless in the battle.”
