"This is exactly what we need to find out."
Dom gazed into the distance. "No matter what, we must not let what happened back then happen again."
Death shook his head: "The giant pit has been sealed off. They must have noticed the situation on the other side. It won't be easy to find them again."
Silence fell over the scene. They were gods, but not omnipotent. On the contrary, most of their actions were subject to certain restrictions. For example, gods could not kill people at will, especially the living, but there was no such restriction on other beings who were also gods.
Dom didn't think much of it, walked over to Kleind, and rubbed his shoulder. His trembling soul immediately calmed down, and the fire king who had survived the ordeal hurriedly bowed in respect.
"Thank you very much, Your Highness."
Dom muttered to himself, "You said several people appeared in the underworld, are you sure?"
"Yes, they are very powerful. Avogadro died at their hands."
"God?"
Clint thought for a moment and shook his head slightly: "I don't think so, but they all possess power comparable to gods."
"where are they?"
The girl from the transvestite race said they had accidentally entered the underworld and wanted to return to the human world through the Valley of No Return.
There is no trough for regression?
Dom silently murmured the name, his expression revealing a complex mix of emotions: the source of that war was the Valley of No Return. If an entrance to the human world hadn't suddenly appeared there, the creatures of the underworld wouldn't have harbored evil thoughts, much less launched a divine war that engulfed the entire world.
Death said, "The Valley of No Return has been sealed. How can they get there?"
"I don't know about that."
Clint answered honestly, appearing exceptionally respectful.
"It seems we'll have to make a trip to the Plains of Bones."
Dom shifted his gaze, pointing directly to the center of the battlefield between gods and demons.
...
White Bone Plain, a place where bones are buried.
I wonder how many lives would have to die to produce this effect: tens of millions, hundreds of millions, or even billions.
Xu Fu glanced at the skeleton briefly and felt an indescribable difficulty.
He had never witnessed the war of the gods in that era, but looking at the scene, he could imagine how brutal the battle must have been: gods and underworld beings slaughtered each other, and countless soldiers perished with them.
Although he disliked the gods, a sense of respect arose within him: without them, perhaps there would be no Earth as we know it today.
Xu Fu shook his head slightly and walked alone into the depths of the plain, carrying the Sword of the God of Fire and the Lasso of Truth.
All the exits were locked; the only way out was a huge and dangerous thing hidden deep underground.
As night falls, the plains return to their original state, appearing calm and peaceful with nothing on the surface, but beneath lies a hidden side.
Xu Fu walked to the spot where Leng Yue had disappeared and slammed his right fist into the ground.
Boom!
The fire dragon furiously lashed out with its whip, blasting the bones into fragments, which then exploded again as it went deeper underground.
"Of course!"
"It's magic again!"
Xu Fu screamed, and thirteen fire dragons roared and charged down.
Click!
Something cracked open, the ground suddenly sank, and a deep pit appeared in the soil; Xu Fu did not go down, but stood outside quietly waiting.
A moment later, the sound of wind reached his ears, and a gigantic tentacle emerged from the burrow. A slit opened at the tip of the tentacle, and from its writhing mouth emerged an unbelievably beautiful woman.
Moon Goddess, Princess Cold Moon!
As before, her upper body was completely naked, without any clothes covering her, and the two nipples on her chest were hidden in her hair, their subtle fragrance intoxicating.
Xu Fu quickly tilted his head back, carefully avoiding looking below his neck.
"Why are you here? Do you want to die? Hurry up!"
Leng Yue was a little nervous; as he spoke, he looked down at himself.
"I want to talk to you, tell you about the current state of the Earth, and cooperate with you."
"cooperate?"
Leng Yue looked at Xu Fu with confusion. Xu Fu nodded and said...
"Yes, cooperation. Some of us are trapped in the underworld and want to go home, just like you. We all have the same goal, so why don't we cooperate?"
"but..."
Just as Leng Yue was about to speak, his companion's voice rang in his mind. Hearing it, he could only say with a hint of panic.
"Someone wants to see you."
During the conversation, he winked at Xu Fu several times, urging him to leave quickly, but Xu Fu just silently shook his head and then jumped into the cave.
Leng Yue waved her hand in despair and hurriedly followed.
The cave was extremely deep; it took a full three minutes to reach the bottom. Judging from the airflow, there must be a very large space ahead,” Leng Yue said in a low voice.
"Be careful what you say next time, don't piss them off."
As soon as he finished speaking, rows of orbs of light lit up around them, emitting milky white ripples that illuminated the surroundings.
At this moment, even Xu Fu 5.7, who had "lived two lives," was stunned by the scene before him.
tentacle
Different tentacles
The tentacles were densely packed, each one enormous, resembling the serpentine cave of a giant python, blotting out the sky and the sun.
At the tip of each tentacle was a figure, male or female, old or young, all with only their upper bodies, completely naked. These people all looked at Xu Fu at the same time, then anger, then surprise, then coldness, then greed... their eyes changed in various ways. This was the pressure from the gods.
Without a doubt, these people are gods, gods of ancient humans.
Xu Fu shrugged slightly, his nervousness indescribable. After a while, he awkwardly introduced himself.
"Xu Fu-Xiao, an Earthling and heir to the Eastern Celestial Court, was transported to the Underworld by Anubis for some reason. His current situation is the same as the rest of you."
Chapter 1575 Vigilance
In the vast underground space, only Xu Fu's voice rang out. To show his sincerity, he first introduced himself in classical Chinese, and then switched to ancient Greek, ancient Egyptian, ancient Indian and a Mayan language that he could not quite understand.
He felt like a primary school student being scolded by a teacher, and a sense of tension was spreading through his body.
After the introduction, there was a long silence before someone spoke in ancient Egyptian.
"Anubis, are you still alive?"
Xu Fu hurriedly replied, "It can't be considered alive; it's just a body covered in wounds, its true spirit almost completely destroyed."
Another person asked, "Are you from the Eastern Celestial Court?"
Xu Fu stretched out his finger, and a golden light burst forth from his fingertip, shimmering and colorful, then transformed into flames, frost, and thunder—a power possessed only by gods.
“Indeed, this is the legacy of the Eastern Celestial Court.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Fu sensed that the look in some of their eyes had changed; they were no longer as aggressive as before.
"The equipment on your back: the Sword of Vulcan and the Lasso of Truth"
A tentacle flew onto him, and the woman at the tip of the tentacle frowned as she stared at Xu Fu: "How did they end up in your hands?"
This woman?
Xu Fu frowned. He seemed to have seen this situation somewhere before. The situation was critical, and he couldn't think too much about it. He could only agree.
"This set of equipment belongs to a friend of mine, a princess of the Amazons. She, like me, is trapped in the underworld and is trying to escape."
Why didn't she come?
"Until this matter is clarified, it is enough for me to bear the risk alone. This outfit is just to confirm my identity and express my sincerity."
The woman said nothing more, but stared intently at the Vulcan's sword.
Over the next period of time, Xu Fu was asked all sorts of questions: about ancient Egypt, ancient Greece, humanity, civilization, the origin of gods, and so on. He answered what he knew and refused to answer what he didn't know, never lying once from beginning to end.
These gods have different abilities, and who knows if there are any creatures that can detect lies.
Through a question-and-answer session, Xu Fu came to understand the predicament of the "gods of humanity": although they have self-awareness, they have memory defects and mental instability, just like three- or four-year-old infants.
After the conversation ended, the tentacles disappeared, and Xu Fu let out a long sigh: There was no danger anymore; the first obstacle had finally been overcome.
Leng Yue said softly, "Come with me, Grandma wants to see you."
grandmother
Xu Fu wanted to know who the person she respectfully called "mother-in-law" was, and whether she was the mastermind behind it all.
Leng Yue led him to a stone gate.
"Come in, she's inside."
