Five Immortals Gate

Since this is the Netherworld, why are there so many creatures? And why are they imprisoned here?

The answers of the three monks, Fa Ke, also solved the doubts in Li Yan's heart.

It stands to reason that the creatures who can enter the Netherworld must be powerful cultivators, and only they can have this cross-border ability.

And these people either come here to experience, or have something special to do, such as looking for special materials that are only available in the Netherworld.

Otherwise, no creature would be willing to appear here. The Netherworld is full of rich death energy, which has a great impact on the life and actions of creatures.

Even if the cultivator has a strong body and relies on the protection of cultivation, he will often leave as quickly as possible.

After staying here for a while, he will be transformed into a dead spirit.

This kind of transformation will be more likely to occur in the lower planes of Shura Prison.

So Li Yan didn't know that the strong man from the Yin-Yang Chaos Sect also left immediately after the result.

The Shura Prison layer where Li Yan is located is a special existence. It is located at the edge of the underworld. It is also a place where dead air and spiritual energy appear alternately.

But in general, dead air occupies 80%, and spiritual energy only 20%. This is the place where those who cannot enter the reincarnation path are punished after death.

Above the Shura Prison layer, there is a place called Huangquan City, which is also a place where dead air and spiritual energy appear alternately, but spiritual energy accounts for 80% and dead air accounts for 20%.

And in that area, there is really only one city, the only Huangquan City, and the rest is an endless empty area.

Because it is difficult for people to survive in the area where Huangquan City is located, only one city was built later.

The origin of Huangquan City is said to be the last barrier specially set up by the Netherworld in the Yang World. There is a Naihe Bridge there, which is the entrance to receive the dead souls.

At the same time, there are also many sects established by the Yang World in the city. The power of this sect in the Yang World must also be very powerful.

Otherwise, the Netherworld will not look down on it and will not contact it.

Because of the laws of heaven and earth that separate the Yin and Yang, the strong men of the Netherworld cannot easily descend to the world, and it is also very difficult for the strong men in the Yang world to enter here.

However, when some strong men become strong enough, they can still travel between the two worlds of life and death with their powerful strength.

Huangquan City is the only way for living beings to enter and exit the Netherworld.

Because of the strong death aura, Huangquan City usually has more ghosts than ghosts who guide the dead souls.

Ghost cultivators will help the ghosts of the Netherworld do some things in the Yang world, such as obtaining information in time, obtaining resources that only exist in the Yang world, etc.

And those ghost cultivators can get more improvement in Huangquan City because of their practice of ghost cultivation techniques, which is also the main reason why they are willing to set up branches in Huangquan City.

And if they do well in some things, they can even be allowed to enter the real Netherworld to practice, which is also what many ghost cultivators dream of.

Of course, only those powerful ghost cultivation sects can know such a secret place. Ordinary ghost cultivation sects don't know the so-called Huangquan City at all.

After knowing this news, Li Yan had some guesses. He felt that a large sect like the Wuliang Sect might also have some top-secret information about the Netherworld.

But things of this level would not be easily said, even if Li Yan was already a cultivator in the Refining Void Realm, it would not be easy to tell.

At the same time, the Wuliang Sect should never have thought that the disappearance of their people was related to the real Netherworld.

The Yin and Yang worlds have never communicated directly. For example, the Netherworld communicated with the Yang world through the ghost cultivators of Huangquan City, so there was rarely any cross-world attack.

This made Li Yan have more doubts in his heart after knowing the role of Huangquan City. He couldn't figure out why the other party wanted to attack them across the world?

Cross-world attack, even with Li Yan's cognition, knew how difficult it was and how much it would cost to do it.

Even if all their lives were added together, it would not be as great as the price that the Netherworld would have to pay for this cross-world attack.

After Li Yan learned about the news of Huangquan City, his heart was suddenly in turmoil.

If he guessed correctly, the yellow halo ring layer encountered in the bottomless black hole should be the location of Huangquan City that the other party passed through when opening the channel between the two worlds.

Under such speculation, Zhao Min and his friends are very likely to have entered the scope of Huangquan City, which is at the edge of the boundary between the Yin and Yang worlds and is a special area.

Zhao Min and his friends want to return to the Yang world through Huangquan City, which is undoubtedly very slim.

The ghost cultivation sect there is connected with the Netherworld. I don’t know if the ghosts here will pass on the message and let people capture Zhao Min and his people?

This situation is very likely. After all, they have crossed the boundary to deal with them, but Li Yan is now anxious and there is nothing he can do...

Then, Li Yan asked if there were any new cultivators sent here recently besides him?

The three of them were on the verge of collapse, but when it came to these things, Li Yan asked them several times from time to time, and the three of them always insisted on denying it.

It was confirmed that no new monks had entered here for at least four months except Li Yan. This made Li Yan both disappointed and a little relieved.

He felt that Chu Yinghong might have escaped this disaster, which would also greatly increase the chances of survival for those cultivators of the Demon Sect.

But on the other hand, Li Yan completely lost his trustworthy helper and had to rely on himself for everything.

As for the origins of all the creatures in this prison, Li Yan quickly figured out the reasons.

After all, all the creatures here entered the first level of Shura Prison through Huangquan City. It can also be said that they were captured and sent from there.

Of course, the three monks Fahe didn't know the way Li Yan was captured, but they were completely different from them, otherwise they would have been extremely surprised.

The origins of the monks here are very complicated. They come from different realms of the fairy world. This alone surprised Li Yan.

And the reason why they appear here is that they basically have one thing in common.

It was while exploring different secret realms or practicing outside that I accidentally entered the space node channel of Huangquan City.

In fact, those node passages are hidden traps deliberately set by many ghost sects in the human world.

Then they were involved in Huangquan City, and the ghost cultivators in Huangquan City were deeply hostile to the monks from other sects.

This is just like in the outside world, most sects treat ghost cultivators and soul cultivators because of their weird methods and want to kill them to avoid future troubles.

Once a monk enters Huangquan City, it is simply more difficult to return to the fairy world than to climb to heaven.

Basically, the ghost cultivators will try their best to capture the monks who enter Huangquan City alive. If this is not possible, they will kill them in a fight.

The reason is that there is a great need for living beings in the first level of Shura Prison.

On the first floor of Shura Prison, there is a ghost plant called "Bana Flower", which is of great help to ghost cultivators and ghosts from the underworld.

Of course, the cause of this incident cannot be traced back to the specific time, but Li Yan still figured out the reason for picking the "flower of the other side"...

Due to the special location on the first floor of Shura Prison, the "Bana Flower" that has been around for more than three hundred years has the power to communicate yin and yang.

Within the flower, there will be a staggered understanding of the critical point of yin and yang. Once the understanding is thorough, it will make a qualitative breakthrough in one's own cultivation.

It is precisely because of the special nature of the "Bana Flower" that it only grows on the first floor of Shura Prison, and no such ghost plants will appear on the following seventeen floors.

However, this material cannot be used directly. It must be picked and then refined into elixirs with the help of other materials before it can be truly used.

But when picking the "Flower of the Other Side", once the ghosts in the Netherworld come into contact, both their consciousness and body will be swallowed up by the flowers.

And because there are roots to support subsequent strength, the ghosts will be more seriously harmed at the moment of picking.

But if you want to ingest it through the air, after refining the elixir from the "Bana Flower", it will be difficult to achieve the intertwined perception of the critical point of yin and yang, and it will basically be of no use.

And they also discovered that once the Bianganhua was touched by spiritual consciousness or body, when they touched it again, there would no longer be the phenomenon of absorbing Mingshou.

After this situation occurred, at the very beginning, the Netherworld ghosts thought of the ghost cultivator who was cooperating with them, and wanted to see if the ghost cultivator could pick it directly.

The elixir refined by "Bianganhua" is also of immeasurable help to those ghost cultivators.

A group of ghost cultivators were sent from Huangquan City and entered the first level of Shura Prison. However, after that and the only time of picking, the ghost cultivators immediately retreated.

Because those ghost cultivators also found that their life spans were greatly reduced during the picking. Every time they picked a "flower from the other side", their life span would be reduced by about a decade.

Moreover, the older the "flower of the other side" is picked, the more life span will be sucked away from that person. At the same time, the pain of instantly draining life span is basically being ripped away from the soul.

Even monks who thought they could endure pain would end up rolling on the ground in pain just after picking one flower.

Fortunately, the longevity essence absorbed by "Bana Flower" is not absorbed continuously. It also only takes away part of the opponent's vitality in an instant during the first contact.

The "Flowers from the Other Side" picked by the ghost cultivators were also refined into elixirs. To the great joy of the Netherworld ghosts, an even stronger sense of intertwining critical points was produced.

This made them guess that this might be a kind of self-protection of the "Bana Flower". All things have spirits, not to mention this weird thing that grows on the edge of Yin and Yang.

Moreover, when the "Bana Flower" protects itself, some kind of power may be released from within the flower as a final defense.

The power released can never be recovered after the flower leaves the rhizome, and that power is the source of a strong sense of critical point intersection.
