Capítulo 1009: Chapter 1006: Netherworld Crossing
Seeing this scene, Li Chen was suddenly alard.
He realized that sothing was wrong and wanted to awaken the Little Demon Immortal, Lian Hongshang, and Xin Qingxue, lest they beco imrsed in the Illusion Realm of the Lycoris radiata.
But just as he reached out his hand, he suddenly felt the sun and moon reversed, the universe spinning.
When Li Chen regained consciousness, he was astonished to find himself back in Donghua City.
This was a two-story duplex villa, brightly festooned, with colorful balloons floating in the garden and on the lawn. There were 999 roses arranged in a strikingly eye-catching large red “Happiness” character.
Li Chen recognized this as the wedding site from his previous life with Ye Chuxue.
“Pick up the bride!”
Soone shouted, and the cheerful welco music suddenly started playing.
Imdiately, a girl in a pure white wedding dress, very beautiful, walked in slowly accompanied by a pair of middle-aged couples.
Next, a handso young man in a suit and bow tie, holding a bouquet of bright red roses, ca up to et her.
He handed the bouquet to the bride.
The bride took the roses and gave him a sweet smile.
That smile was breathtakingly beautiful. It drained all color from the fireworks in the sky.
At that mont, the whole world seed to bestow its blessings on this couple.
Yet in the next instant, a mysterious man wearing sunglasses and holding flowers appeared.
Li Chen recognized him at once, the Heavenly Net Killer Young Master Xue!
He wanted to stop everything, but found that all his Magic Powers had disappeared, and he couldn’t even move.
Li Chen could only watch as Young Master Xue walked step by step towards Ye Chuxue. When they were less than ten ters apart, this demon suddenly stopped, a sinister smile crept onto his lips.
Then, a gleaming dagger was drawn from the bouquet and stabbed towards the groom like lightning.
Unexpectedly, the bride Ye Chuxue suddenly stepped forward and blocked the fatal stab.
“Pfft!”
Blood stained the pure white wedding dress, and the roses in Ye Chuxue’s hand fell scattered to the ground.
The groom knelt on the ground holding her, crying out in grief, while the wedding scene descended into chaos.
Crying painfully to the core!
The despair of losing the entire world!
Li Chen inexplicably felt a heart-wrenching pain, as if that knife had pierced his own heart as well.
Ye Chuxue’s lips curled into a faint smile, her lips quivered, uttering three words, and then she permanently closed her eyes.
As beautiful as the mories were, so painful they are now!
My dearest love, you are the desolation of the world!
The regret of the vast sky!
Even more so, the one who haunts for my entire life!
…
A poignant, sorrowful little poem drifted in the sky. It was carried by the wind into Li Chen’s ears.
By now, Li Chen was utterly consud by anger, wanting to go mad, to kill, to make the entire world accompany his beloved in death.
“Woosh!”
Just at that mont, a peal of thunder echoed across the sky.
Rain poured down, and the raindrops, like beans, hit Li Chen’s face hard.
Li Chen shivered suddenly, his rage clearing his clouded mind.
No, this was a mory from a previous life, not sothing happening now.
Young Master Xue is already dead, Chuxue did not die; she is still alive and well, alive and well!
Li Chen’s heart jolted, and the void before him tore apart instantly. Again, he felt the sun and moon reversed, the universe turning.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself back at the River of Oblivion.
At this mont, Little Demon Immortal, Lian Hongshang, and Xin Qingxue were still imrsed in their own Illusion Realms, either crying, sorrowful, or happy.
Three people, yet at the sa ti, trapped in three different worlds!
Li Chen first stepped to the Little Demon Immortal and spun a bright light between his fingers, injecting it into her forehead.
Prior at the Corpse Fragrance Demon Plant, Li Chen had used this thod to enter Little Demon Immortal’s Sea of Consciousness.
This ti, it was naturally familiar!
Li Chen broke into Little Demon Immortal’s dream and without a word, directly took her hand and ran forward crazily, giving her no ti to think at all.
Without ti to think, Little Demon Immortal’s mind naturally went blank, and all previous illusions shattered like soap bubbles.
Imdiately after, Li Chen used the sa thod to pull Lian Hongshang and Xin Qingxue out from their illusions.
Lian Hongshang was relatively fine, but Xin Qingxue was having another embarrassing dream and grabbed Li Chen for a burst of passionate kissing, leaving him quite distressed.
Though it was just a few instants, to Li Chen and the others, it seed like a lifeti had passed.
After all, the Lycoris radiata awakens the mories deep in their hearts, things that had indeed happened before.
Real enough to take one’s breath away!
Even with Li Chen’s resolute nature, he almost fell for it.
After a deathly silence, Li Chen looked at Little Demon Immortal, Lian Hongshang, and Xin Qingxue, and said, “Everyone, try to empty your minds. Don’t think about anything, understand?”
After listening to Li Chen’s advice, the three won, each with their own concerns, took a deep breath and nodded solemnly.
Soon, Li Chen and his party arrived at the Netherworld Crossing.
Netherworld Crossing, very similar to ancient Yellow River ferries.
All around it, there was a row of bamboo raft boats.
The boats had no bottoms, but the surroundings were filled with white skulls. They spouted white foam like whales spouting water.
Standing at the Netherworld Crossing, looking across, you couldn’t see the legendary Ghost Gate.
This was because the space before their eyes was not flat but made up of multiple curved surfaces. The middle section of the River of Oblivion’s surface even had multiple spatial disruptions. At a glance, it looked more winding than the nine anders of the Yellow River.
At the center of the River of Oblivion, there was a protruding island.
On the island, a plant with a crystalline and verdant body was growing.
The plant’s stem had eighteen nodes, with each pair of nodes growing a leaf. Together with the leaf at the top, it had a total of ten leaves.
This was the Soul Summoning Grass, with each of the ten leaves symbolizing the Three Souls and Seven Spirits.
The Three Souls were called Taiguang, Shuangling, and Ethereal Spirit respectively.
The Seven Spirits were: the first spirit nad Shigou, the second spirit nad Fushu, the third spirit nad Queyin, the fourth spirit nad Tunzhi, the fifth spirit nad Feidu, the sixth spirit nad Chuhui, and the seventh spirit nad Choufai.
As long as these Three Souls and Seven Spirits were gathered, the dead could be resurrected.
Therefore, the dead spirit ghosts who were unwilling to fall into the Netherworld cycle were all driven by the last trace of the will to live, gathering near this Soul Summoning Grass, hoping for a chance at revival.
Seeing this, Li Chen couldn’t help but frown slightly.
It seems that in order to seize this Soul Summoning Grass, he would first have to deal with the tens of thousands of dead spirit ghosts in the River of Oblivion…
