Infinite simulation from lock dragon well

【Year 2, Day 271: You felt a pull in the darkness. After taking one last look at your dragon body, you followed that pull.

As you followed that pull, you felt as if your entire being was accelerating. You flew at an incredibly exaggerated speed, yet even as you followed, you could still sense that you were heading north.】

【Year 2, Day 272: Your speed was extremely fast. You felt that by following this pull, you had arrived in the north in just a single day.

But you still didn't know where this feeling would lead you. You knew very clearly that this pull would definitely not take you to Mount Du Shuo...】

【Year 2, Day 273: This pull led you into a very peculiar place, where it was perpetually dark, with no distinction between day and night.

You felt very curious about this place. You really wanted to know where this was, but you felt the pull was still there, so you couldn't help but continue flying.】

【Year 2, Day 274: A towering black mountain appeared in front of you. On this mountain, you immediately felt that the pull was coming from it.

As soon as you arrived in front of this mountain, a group of beasts with considerable power surrounded you. Looking around, you saw that these beasts were of various kinds, including black birds, black snakes, black tigers, black panthers, and black foxes. Everything here seemed to be black...】

Black birds, black snakes, black tigers, black panthers, black foxes?

Ji Zheng was stunned. What kind of place was this?

In the simulation, after performing the spirit journey and separating the dragon soul from his body, he followed the pull in the darkness and came to this strange place, and then to this strange mountain.

Unexpectedly, he didn't reach Mount Du Shuo, but instead came to this black mountain.

Ji Zheng began to rack his brains, thinking.

This pull, if nothing unexpected happens, is pulling him to the underworld.

In mythology, there seem to be quite a few who can enter the underworld.

Such as the deities like the Lord of Mount Tai, who can all pull others into the underworld.

There are even more places that lead to the underworld. Mount Du Shuo is only one of them. Places like Fengdu City, Ghost Gate Pass, Fusang Tree, and Youdu Mountain can all lead to the underworld.

And the place he is in now in the simulation...

A black mountain.

And all kinds of black beasts.

This is very similar to Youdu Mountain.

According to legend, Youdu Mountain is a black mountain. In Youdu Mountain, there are black tigers, black snakes, black panthers, black birds, and black foxes, and the so-called Black Water originates from here.

There is a legend about the Black Water, that it is the water of the Yellow Springs, which can connect Yin and Yang.

Ji Zheng felt that the place in his simulation was no different from the description of Youdu Mountain.

"If nothing unexpected happens, it should be Youdu Mountain."

"I didn't expect to fail to reach Mount Du Shuo, but instead came to Youdu Mountain."

Ji Zheng clicked his tongue in wonder.

This can be considered a twist of fate.

However, he really wanted to see what was in Youdu Mountain.

He wondered if it could allow him to comprehend Yin Five Elements.

The simulation continued.

...

【You looked at the beasts surrounding you and immediately prepared to break through the encirclement, but just as you were about to make a move, you suddenly heard these black beasts roar.

After hearing the roar of these black beasts, you understood what these black beasts meant. They seemed to be asking you why you were still alive in the Yang world, yet entered Youdu Mountain.

Just as you were about to explain, you suddenly saw these black beasts all seem to have heard some order, and they all retreated. One of the black tigers told you that the Lord of Youdu invited you to meet him in the depths.

After hearing this, you were immediately taken aback. You didn't understand why the Lord of Youdu would want to see you, but you still went to the depths of Youdu Mountain, preparing to find out.】

【Year 2, Day 275: You went deep into Youdu Mountain. You looked at the Black Water flowing around you, and you felt the aura of Yin-Yang Five Elements in those Black Waters.

After confirming that this Black Water had the aura of Yin-Yang Five Elements, you immediately lay beside the Black Water and began to comprehend it.

Under your comprehension, you vaguely had some understanding of the Yin Five Elements. Before you could continue to comprehend, a stronger pull suddenly came from the front.

You couldn't care less about comprehending this Black Water, and you began to continue to delve deeper.】

【Year 2, Day 276: You delved deep into Youdu Mountain, and you finally saw the Lord of Youdu. The Lord of Youdu was very large, with a body like a cow and a head like a tiger, releasing an aura that was no weaker than the Five Emperors.

After seeing this Lord of Youdu, you felt deeply shocked, because you didn't know why this Lord of Youdu would be so powerful. This kind of power was completely no less than the Five Emperors.

Just as you were feeling shocked, this Lord of Youdu reported his name, which also made you know the name of this Lord of Youdu, his name is Houtu...】

Houtu??

According to the information he had obtained, Houtu was a subordinate deity of the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan, but he didn't know that Houtu was actually the Lord of Youdu.

However, there seem to be relevant records in mythology that say Houtu is the Lord of Youdu Mountain.

It's just this gender that Ji Zheng really didn't expect.

But thinking about it carefully, it seems that Houtu was originally a male god in the recorded myths, and it was only after the Sui Dynasty that he began to be changed to a female.

Just like Gou Mang, who was later changed to the image of 'Mang Tong', they were all changed later.

"The image and gender are okay, but comparable to the Five Emperors, then why should Houtu be a subordinate deity of the Yellow Emperor?"

"With this kind of strength, shouldn't he be eyeing the position of a subordinate deity? Even the Five Heavenly Emperors should have the confidence to compete for it."

Ji Zheng still didn't understand.

But he had just met Houtu, what exactly is the situation, he still has to continue watching the simulation.

...

【After you learned that the one standing in front of you was Houtu, you were taken aback, but Houtu opposite you didn't have any surprised expression, but instead spoke to you very kindly, saying that she knew you, knew that you were the Azure Dragon who mended the sky, and Houtu expressed her high interest in you, and had long wanted to meet you, but didn't expect that you would automatically come to Youdu Mountain.

Listening to what Houtu said, Ji Zheng silently gave a thumbs up to his previous act of mending the sky, and then you asked Houtu, why is her strength so strong, why would she still become a subordinate deity of the Yellow Emperor.

Houtu just smiled when she heard this, and pointed to the entire Youdu Mountain...】

I've been too busy lately, sorry, sorry, I wanted to increase the amount of updates. Regarding the disbanding of the book friend group, there's nothing strange about it, like something collapsing. I just simply felt that keeping the book friend group was useless, so I disbanded it. In the future, we'll just see each other in the book.
