Chapter 396 – The Middle-aged Man on the Seventh Floor
Chapter 396 – The Middle-aged Man on the Seventh Floor of the Nine Prisons
Ghost Buddha finally found the person he was looking for on the seventh floor of the Nine Hells.
A middle-aged man with a tattered gray cloth coat and a scruffy beard.
All around his feet were white scrolls spread out, with four words densely written all over them – powerless to return to Heaven!
“The Lord was right, you were indeed imprisoned in the Nine Prisons.
Leave with me, this is not the place for you.” Ghost Buddha spoke out.
The middle-aged man sniffed and raised his head, his eyes blank and empty, “So what if I go out, the outside is just a bigger prison.
Since I am powerless to make any changes, I might as well stay here honestly and wait for that day to come.
Huh, where is my pen?”
The middle-aged man wanted to continue writing, but there was no trace of the brush, so he lowered his head and looked around.
“The Lord said that this person’s divination methods are heavenly, and has even vaguely reached the level of attempting to become a Heavenly Supervisor State Master.
If we want to find the demons and ghosts that participated in the Night of Divine Eclipse, we need this person’s help.” A look of skepticism and disdain appeared in the eyes of the Three Heads of Ghost Buddha.
He himself was also proficient in divination, only that in past encounters, he had lost miserably to the Heavenly Overseer State Master.
This man in front of him was afraid that he was not even one ten thousandth as good as him, otherwise how could he be trapped in the Nine Prisons.
“The Lord even said that this person’s means are heavenly, it’s simply ridiculous.”
However, despite this thought in his heart, Ghost Buddha still had to rescue this middle-aged man, after all, it was all the Lord’s order.
He took a step forward with his right foot, but heard a click.
Looking down, underneath his thick foot, was a broken brush.
Ghost Buddha was not amused, but at that moment, the scruffy middle-aged man who was supposed to be imprisoned in the cage had actually appeared beside him, and then his right hand grabbed his ankle and gently lifted it, removing the broken quill pen.
The middle-aged man’s face revealed a look of heartache, “This brush was gifted to me by my teacher at the beginning, and you actually stepped on it and broke it.”
As the words fell, the middle-aged man’s right hand wiped towards the brush, and with a flash of white light, the broken brush was restored to its original state!
“Fortunately, fortunately.” The man patted his chest before walking back into the cage.
The prohibition on that cage was a virtual nullity to the scruffy man.
When Ghost Buddha saw this scene, his heart was shocked beyond words, the means he used just now was not necessarily possible even if he was spared.
Things have come to this point, he also finally understand, why the Lord not hesitate to take such a big risk, also want to bring this person back, the other party does have this kind of ability!
He still wanted to open his mouth to say something, but was directly interrupted by the middle-aged, “Don’t waste your breath, if you don’t leave, you won’t be able to leave.”
The Ghost Buddha heard this, and the three heads and six eyes closed in unison, performing calculations.
In the darkness, he saw many images and endings, but whichever ending was a dead end!
Just then, there was a distortion in the void, and a blurry black shadow slowly stepped out.
The middle-aged man, who had previously been indifferent to everything, looked at the black shadow with some surprise, and there was sizing up and scrutinizing in his eyes.
“Come with me.” The black shadow swayed and spoke out.
“I’m not going.” The middle-aged shook his head, his attitude resolute.
“Don’t jump to conclusions, let’s see what this is.” The black shadow pulled out an object, it was a box with an eyeball lying inside.
The moment the box was opened, the eye that was closed also opened its eyes.
For a moment, the light flourished, dispelling the darkness of the seventh floor, and the surroundings were as bright as day.
“You actually obtained this item, what do you want to do?” The scruffy middle-aged man asked curiously.
The black shadow replied, “Back then, you divined various endings, and in order for the human race to survive for an extra hundred years, you didn’t hesitate to enter the palace to kill the king, and as a result, you were suppressed here by the Heavenly Supervisor.”
The scruffy middle-aged man smiled miserably, “Teacher did the right thing, instead of struggling hard, it would be better to be relieved earlier.
Anyway, the moment the heaven and earth seal breaks, no one can change the ending.
A hundred years more, a hundred years less is all the same.” “That’s not necessarily true, there’s still a path you may not have seen.” The black shadow said leisurely.
“What road?” The scruffy middle-aged man was curious and skimmed his head.
“Take the initiative to awaken the Ancient Gods and Demons and put them to death!” The words were word for word, resounding!
The scruffy man’s complexion lurched as he repeated the words under his breath, then began to deduce.
A few moments later, he said with maniacal excitement, “Didn’t see the end coming!”
Without an ending, that meant one more possibility.
Even if this path was destined to be stained with blood and piled with white bones!
But compared to the survival of the human race, this sacrifice was nothing.
“I’ll go with you.”
“Good.”
It was difficult to stop the Tear Drought Demon’s innate divine ability, so the only way to do so was to make the other party unable to continue casting their innate divine ability by decapitating the Tear Drought Demon!
After figuring this out, Si Zheng Teng Mo, Martial God Ning Zhan, and Blade Frenzy Zhen Tianyi all appeared in the sky above the Demon Beheading Division.
Teng Mo glanced at the black heaven and earth beside the Nine Quarters River, his brows furrowed.
Blade Frenzy Zhentian Yi looked around, seemingly searching for some figure.
The one who took the lead was Martial God Ning Zhan, space seemed as if it didn’t exist in front of his speed, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of the Tear Drought.
Golden energy attached to the fist, with the power of destroying the sky and earth, towards the Tear Drought, if hit, the other party’s shadow body not dead must also be seriously injured.
But at this moment, a black light barrier blocked in front of the Tear Drought, Ning Zhan’s fist was only an inch away from the Tear Drought.
However, this one inch distance was like a heavenly moat!
“Who is it?” Ning Zhan violently turned to look into the void behind him.
After a burst of black shadows manifested, three silhouettes stepped out.
The blurry black shadow at the head paid no attention and spoke faintly, “It’s time to go.”
Teng Mo and Zhen Tianyi looked at the black shadow at the same time, their complexions incomparably grave, they could feel the powerful aura emanating from the other party, it was chilling!
“But when I don’t exist?” Ning Zhan was ignored and shouted angrily.
A fist was swung out violently, the power Qi was emitted externally, and the fist deity attacked the black shadow.
Even if he didn’t use all his strength in this strike, it wasn’t far off, but what shocked him was that the fist dangles swept halfway to the black shadow, but it instantly turned into nothingness!
On the other side, the God Binding Frontier could no longer maintain its form, and disappeared in a cracking sound.
A figure violently swept out, toward the Demon Beheading Division.
In just an instant, another figure appeared beside the Black Shadow, Ghost Buddha and the scruffy middle-aged man.
It was none other than the second ghost-faced man who was previously responsible for blocking the Zhen Shen Si Royal with the God Binding Border!
At this moment, his appearance was very different from before, his left arm was empty, not to mention the cracks on his ghostly face, and the blood scars all around his body were shocking to the eyes.
“Tough on you.” The black shadow faintly said.
“Cut the crap, the Binding God Border has been shattered, quickly go!” The second ghost-faced man was hysterical.
If he was given another chance to choose, how could he not take on the task of blocking Zhen Shen Si Yu, it was no different from seeking death!
As the words fell, the white-haired, black-bearded old man had arrived at the Demon Slaying Division at some point.
When Ghost Buddha saw the old man, his stout body unexpectedly involuntarily trembled slightly.
That was from the fear of death!
