Bright!

"What will happen if you eat it?"

"You'll know after you eat it."

"I won't eat it if you don't tell me."

Yama: ...I have never seen such a useless person.

"After eating it, you can go to the underworld."

"Why should I go to hell? I'm living well and I'm about to become a congressman. Do you understand, congressman? It's a very big official."

Xu Le made some gestures, but Yan Luo just thought he had shit in his head.

"To go to hell is not to die."

"Okay, but eating extra fruits is very dangerous. Have you considered the risks?"

"This is the mother tree's expectation for you. It wants you to gain this power, so it gave you this fruit. Since you have the mother tree's approval, you can naturally eat it."

"All right."

Xu Le glanced at the fruit in his hand. He had already eaten the Thunder Fruit, although anyone who ate the Destiny Fruit could eat additional fruits.

But Chi Xiao once told him that it is up to you to judge how much you can eat. If you eat too much, you will die, just like an ordinary person eating two fruits.

Now he doesn't feel anything and doesn't know if this thing can be eaten.

What if I die if I eat it?

"Are you trying to trick me?"

"Are you sick? Why should I cheat you?"

"Maybe it's because I don't want to lead you to create a harmonious society in Guyinduo, so you want to kill me and replace me with another one?" Xu Le blinked.

"What the hell..."

When Yama saw this, he was about to hammer him. It thought about it and hadn't hammered him for a long time. If it didn't hammer him, Xu Le would have no chance if he got stronger in the future.

Xu Le was also open-minded and directly stuffed the fruit into his mouth.

Originally, he was prepared to endure the smell of shit, but after eating the fruit, Xu Le found that it didn't stink.

Of course, there is no sweet or sour taste, it is just an ordinary tasteless fruit.

It felt like eating that tasteless white-heart dragon fruit. I clearly ate a piece of fruit, but I felt like I just didn't eat it.

"It doesn't taste like that." Xu Le shook his head.

"Do you really miss that smell?" Yama curled his lips. Is there anyone else who can't forget the smell of shit?

"No, it just doesn't feel like eating fruit before."

"What does it feel like? What does it feel like to eat shit?"

Xu Le:......

It is obvious that although Yama has never eaten the fruit, he knows the feeling of eating the fruit.

After Xu Le ate the underworld fruit, he didn't feel the same surge of power as before. He couldn't even feel any obvious fluctuations in his body.

This made Xu Le wonder if he had eaten a fake fruit.

"After eating this, it seems to have no effect."

"It's already working." Yan Luo stared at Xu Le, making him feel a little numb.

Then, Yan Luo stretched out his finger towards Xu Le:

"Come on, give me your hand."

"Does it take a lot of time? I'm actually quite busy right now." To be honest, Xu Le was still a little worried about the title Huang Quan because of education issues.

He could think of words related to the underworld, probably like going to the underworld together and sending you on your way.

Anyway, both the left and right are dead, and Huangquan represents death, so there is some resistance.

"It won't take long."

Xu Le didn't hesitate for too long because he was really busy.

He stretched out his hand and touched Yama's fingertips.

The core room of the furnace, which was originally rich and full due to the black tide, was drained of a large amount of energy in an instant.

The energy of these ancient sounds gathered at the feet of Xu Le and Yama, gradually forming a river of souls.

"River of Souls?" Xu Le had only seen the ferryman summoning the River of Souls, but he didn't expect Yama to have the same ability.

"The mother river, the end of the soul, is also the energy that provides nourishment to my lord. Behind the mother river is the underworld. Normal humans cannot withstand the washing of their souls. No matter how powerful they are, as long as they fall into the mother river, they cannot escape. The power of the mother tree.”

Hearing what Yan Luo said, Xu Le thought it was bragging.

During the last Kuroshio, he not only fell into the river of souls, he could even swim in it and dive for 20 minutes.

"Although I don't know much about the so-called river of souls, I feel like you are bragging."

"You fart, no power in this world can compete with the mother tree in the mother river, not even the son of Gu Yin Duo, not even Hong Yue."

Looking at each other with Yama, this absolute tone...

"Okay, okay, Mother River is awesome." Xu Le chose to obey.

Coaxing an old person is like coaxing a child. Since you have no way to convince the other person, you can only obey.

Although Yama looks like a red-skinned monster and its skin is quite tight, judging from its past and its tone, it should be quite old.

Yan Luo didn't want to talk to Xu Le anymore, although he was still holding Xu Le's hand.

It waved lightly, and a wave of water split in the center of the soul river, and underneath the wave was endless darkness.

"Go down."

"It's a bit dark."

Xu Le said, having been dragged in.

In the boundless darkness, Xu Le could not describe the environment he was in.

He seems to be able to stand, but his movements are a bit like swimming or flying. If he puts force on his feet, he can also step on things.

After floating in this dark environment for a while, Xu Le really stepped on the ground. Everything around him was dark and he couldn't see anything, so he was a little uneasy.

Yan Luo seemed to understand Xu Le's uneasiness and spoke in advance:

"This was originally a beautiful and bright place. Unfortunately, the Light Cast took away the light here, and the Night Fury took away the darkness here, so there is only nothingness left here."

"So this is nothingness, not darkness?"

"That's what it means."

Xu Le nodded, savoring what Yama just said. The son of Gu Yinduo took away the light and darkness here, so the nothingness here was created.

Thinking of this, Xu Le's heart moved.

He slowly stretched out his hand, and the black staff could actually gradually solidify here.

Then he injected spiritual energy into the black staff, and just like in the dark world of Night Fury, the dark underworld actually became brighter, and here, the brightness produced by the black rod shone brighter than in the dark world of Night Fury.

When he raised the black staff, it was like raising a huge point of light, lighting up the darkness.

Xu Le glanced around.

There were various red and black limestones. He didn't know whether they were limestone, but it just felt like solidified volcanic ash.

In the sky, wronged souls from the river of souls continue to fall here, and then quickly dissipate, transforming into blue spiritual energy and disappearing.

I don’t know if it was absorbed by this space or some other situation.

There was no life underfoot, it was dead silence and there was no sound.

Xu Le's eyelids twitched a few times, then looked at Yan Luo:

"Is this what you call a beautiful and bright place?"

"Ahem, why are you still lighting up?"

Probably because the lie was exposed, Yama coughed twice in embarrassment.

However, Xu Le still asked relentlessly:

"Was it very bright here before? Were there flowers, plants and trees? Were there any living things? Look at that soul, didn't its death look very ferocious?" Xu Le said, pointing to several souls in the sky.

When he asked this question, Yama became a little angry.

"Isn't the land of the underworld supposed to be like this? What do you think the underworld is? Flowers, grass, and green trees?"

"What you say seems a bit unreasonable."

Yan Luo simply ignored Xu Le and walked straight ahead.

The two came to a bridge in the land of underworld. Because of the light, Xu Le's eyes flashed slightly when he saw this place.

Because he had seen this place before in Po Meng's memory fragments.

"here it is……"

Yan Luo was about to explain, but Xu Le suddenly said:

"The Bridge of Naihe, a place for the soul to rest."

"You actually know all this? You know quite a lot."

Yes, he knows here, and not just from the information he got from Po Meng.

The Chinese in their world should all know these things. Even if there are some deviations, there are always traces to follow.

The place in front of him made Xu Le wonder why he came to this world.

If there is anything special about him, he is not special, right?

There are at least hundreds of millions of people like him who have received nine years of compulsory education, excluding those old men and women.

"Ahem, do you want to go over?"

"certainly."

Yan Luo took Xu Le across the Naihe Bridge, but unfortunately there was no Po Meng here anymore.

Then, they came to a place that looked like a rotten land.

There is a huge depression in the land right now, with dense holes inside, like an ant nest. Even the hard rocks have been corroded by some kind of energy and substance. I don't know if it is acid or something else.

"What was here... before? It seemed to smell a bit rotten."

"It's almost like a little pool in your head."

A small pool in your head? A spiritual pool?

Xu Le looked at this depression again. It was exhausted and full of deathly silence. What can I say about such a place...

It would be quite scary if the small pool in my head would become like this in the future.

Running from the edge area to the inside, Xu Le followed Yan Luo and gradually realized the hugeness of this pool. It was completely a lake!

After crossing this area, Xu Le and Yama Luo came to the deepest part of Huangquan.

After arriving here, Xu Le finally knew what the rotten smell he smelled was. It was huge and rotten tree roots.

When he first saw this place, Xu Le already knew that this was the root of the ancient Yin Duomu tree!

But Xu Le immediately had an idea in his mind. He felt that this thing was ridiculous:

"Is it real, or is it fantasy?"

"It exists in reality, illusion, present, past, future, memory and illusion. It also has its shadow. As long as it exists, this world will have a stable order."

Yan Luo's words were a little weird, but Xu Le probably understood the meaning.

The tree of ancient sound is the will of this world.

"How long has the Ancient Yinduo Tree existed? Where is the Red Moon?"

"The existence time of the mother tree has long been unknown. After all, when I was born, it had already existed for countless years.

As for the time when the red moon appears, there is no particularly accurate date. It is probably between 1500 and 2500? "

"Is the span so huge?"

"Because the red moon appeared before me."

Hearing him say this, Xu Le understood.

"Then why did you bring me here today? Just to take a look at the roots of the mother tree?"

"Of course not. You are the first person to step into the underworld in so many years. Come on over."

"Going there? Where to go?"

"Go to the mother tree."

Xu Le's expression became a little hesitant, but it stands to reason that Yama wouldn't fool him, and the mother tree was pretty good to him.

The work of jointly creating Guyinduo's beautiful life has not been completed yet, so it should be fine.

Xu Le moved his steps and walked slowly to the roots of the mother tree.

The smell of decay became stronger and stronger, as if life was about to die.

"Mother tree..."

The tree responded, as if there was some kind of language, but he couldn't hear it. It felt like his ears were blocked by earwax.

"Uh, what are you saying, I can't hear you..."

As if understanding Xu Le's meaning, the mother tree extended its rotten roots, wanting to touch Xu Le.

To be honest, Xu Le was a little disgusted because the smell of rotten roots was so unpleasant.

When this rhizome touched Xu Le, Xu Le felt something flowing out of his body.

It's not a pure substance, it feels like pheromones are being absorbed, just like the feeling when he sacrificed the Red Moon items...

Then an astonishing scene occurred. After absorbing the pheromones on Xu Le's body, the rhizome quickly rotted into ash, and then a new rhizome grew from the deepest part of the rhizome.

This situation is like being given a new lease of life.

While Xu Le was surprised, he also felt much better about the new rhizome. At least it didn't stink so much, although the surrounding area was still smelly.

"The mother tree is dying, but something can bring it back to life?"

Xu Le grasped the extending rhizome, and the mother tree fed back some information to Xu Le through this rhizome.

A picture is formed...

In ancient times, Deep Blue Star was a world without a sun.

The thing that illuminates this world is the Guyinduomu tree. It shines and heats, providing light and warmth to the entire world, and resisting void and darkness.

All creatures are approaching the Tree of Ancient Yinduo. They depend on each other and grow. Of course, there will be wars because these creatures want to get closer to the mother tree.

Because the closer to the mother tree, the warmer and brighter it becomes.

The creatures that die under the light of the mother tree will fall into reincarnation and become part of the mother river of souls. They will return to the mother tree and nourish the power of the mother tree, making them develop more magnificently and stronger.

It can be said that there is a special symbiotic relationship between life and the Guyin Duomu tree.

The mother tree gives light and warmth to life and drives away darkness.

And the death of life also brings the mother tree’s soul and the power of life to die out.

The two formed a reincarnation.

Until...the red moon appears.
