Chapter 1480: Go Home
d, "Master Xiao, are there any other ways"Xiao Zheng remained silent for a moment before speaking, "Unless you can demonstrate a talent for alchemy that surpasses mine, then I wouldn't be qualified to...Standing just before the gates of death, one could feel the overwhelming, tide-like aura of death surging from within.
If it were replaced by other creatures, I'm afraid they would simply die from the oppressive atmosphere here, instantly perishing from life to death.
But Jiang Yun was completely unaffected, because half of the Netherfire within him would automatically absorb this death energy, protecting his body.
But even though death was imminent, and even knowing that passing through this vortex would lead to the Underworld, Jiang Yun still couldn't see the true appearance of the Underworld.
This naturally made him a bit disappointed!
Then, he suddenly reached into the inferno within him and pulled out a shadowy figure like a phantom - Ghostly Prowler!
At this moment, Gui Li felt the incoming death qi and the whole person was as if bathed in sunlight, so comfortable that he couldn't help but stretch.
But when he saw Ginger Cloud before him, his body trembled violently. The arm that had been raised quickly lowered again, and a look of fear appeared on his face as he cautiously stared at Ginger Cloud.
Ginger Cloud, however, calmly said: "You are free now!"
"What, what"
Guilì blinked, his face blank, clearly not understanding what Jiang Yun had just said.
Jiang Yun stretched out a finger and pointed at the gate of death: "Pass through this door, and you will enter the realm of the dead!"
"Back then, when you helped me deal with that Mochen in the Prison of Dao, I promised you that once I left, I would return your freedom."
"I've never forgotten this, but because you are not a living being, I haven't found a suitable place for you. Releasing you would be neither beneficial nor harmful to you."
"Thankfully, I can finally keep my promise now. You, return to the Underworld!"
This time, Gui Li finally heard clearly, but he still couldn't believe it. He widened his eyes and stared at Jiang Yun, wondering if he was dreaming.
Although I always held onto the hope of recovering my freedom and returning to the realm of death, I never truly believed that this wish could actually come true.
Only when Jiang Yun completely let go of all restraints on Gui Li did Gui Li finally believe that Jiang Yun had not lied to him.
Moreover, the thick stench of death emanating from the door behind him confirmed his suspicions: this door was indeed a gateway to the underworld.
As long as one walks through it, they can return to the Netherworld and back to their own home.
However, Ginger Cloud's voice rang out once more: "Although I can give you freedom, there is still one thing I need you to do for me!"
The ghastly figure trembled again, unable to contain itself. "What is it"
Jiang Yun said faintly, "I let you go free because you helped me, but your Sen Luo Ghost Prison first poisoned my third senior brother and then killed a large number of disciples from my Wenda Sect. I cannot simply let these two blood debts go."
Therefore, after you return to the Underworld, no matter what methods you use, find my third senior brother and those deceased disciples of the Wen Dao Sect. Do your best to take care of them!
"To make sure you'll do this, I'm going to leave some marks on you!"
While speaking, Jiang Yun didn't give Gui Li any chance to refuse. He raised his hand and struck out with both hands at lightning speed, forming several hand seals that condensed into two imprints, which entered Gui Li's body.
The ghost's face was instantly filled with fear again and he stammered, "What... what is this"
"It's nothing, just as long as you get this done, then you can completely ignore the existence of these two seals."
But if you do nothing, then with these two seals, even if we are separated by life and death, I will still find you!
As Jiang Yun said, the Sen Luo Ghost Prison inflicted a soul poison on his third senior brother, Xuan Yuan Xing Shen. Gui Li also joined forces with Wan Yao Ku to attack the Shan Hai Wen Dao Zong, causing countless disciples within the sect to perish.
Although Ginger Cloud has already destroyed the Hell Prison and avenged himself, given his personality, he wouldn't easily let Ghostly Majesty go.
As for the threat from Jiang Yun, perhaps others wouldn't care. After all, they are already separated by life and death, it's highly unlikely that Jiang Yun would have a chance to find Gui Li.
But Gui Li had been imprisoned in the flames of life by Jiang Yun for so many years, enduring his torment and learning about Jiang Yun's experiences over the years. He understood Jiang Yun's terrifying power and his unwavering commitment to his word!
Especially the two doors of life and death before my eyes, are the best proof!
"I understand!" Ghost Li hurriedly nodded and said, "Master, rest assured, after I return to the Underworld, I will definitely find the disciples who died in the civil war within the Asking Dao Sect back then, as well as Senior Xuan Yuan, and I will do everything I can to help them!"
Jiang Yunmian nodded expressionlessly, "Well, I hope you can do what you say. Go!"
"Yes!"
After bowing deeply once more to Jiang Yun, Gui Li finally turned and walked towards the gate of death.
As he stood at the threshold of death, he couldn't help but cast one last glance back at Jiang Yun. Making sure Jiang Yun hadn't made any move, he gritted his teeth and stepped into the gateway of death.
Although it was just stepping through a door, Ghostly's figure instantly vanished without a trace, as if being swallowed whole.
However, Jiang Yun knew that Gui Li had indeed returned to the underworld.
Because the two imprints he left in the ghostly body were Daozong and the Void Mark!
During this time, Jiang Yun, besides racing towards Wudaotian desperately, spent his free time researching the Way of Planting. After all, he was already close to the realm of Wudao, and needed to prepare in advance.
The so-called Way of Seeding is to take one's own soul power and, using a special method, condense it into a seed. This seed is then planted within another person's body.
This Tao seed will take the other's cultivation and enlightenment as nourishment, rooting, sprouting, branching out, until it finally bears the fruit of the Dao.
This is Jiang Yun's first time planting a Dao fruit for someone else, and it's even a ghost clan member. If this were anyone else, they definitely wouldn't do this.
However, this was just a try for Jiang Yun, and he hadn't even thought about taking the Dao Fruit from Gui Li.
The true means by which he controlled the ghosts and spirits was still the Seal of Emptiness.
Even if a ghost is killed, it will still be used by him with this mark.
And now that the imprint shows no reaction, it means that the ghost has already peacefully returned to the underworld.
Having glanced at the dead door, Jiang Yun withdrew his gaze, his figure flickering as he took a step into the gate of life, vanishing without a trace.
With Jiang Yun's disappearance, these two vortex gates that symbolized life and death collapsed silently.
Standing between the two worlds, Jiang Yun couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
Although he didn't know where he was now, he could at least be sure that this was the boundary between realms.
...but he could still feel the thick breaths of life and death emanating from nearby, clearly indicating that the boundary between life and death was still here.
"That's great, if I have time in the future, I can go to the Underworld through this boundary of life and death!"
"However, what I need to do now is quickly figure out my location and then go ask the heavens. I wonder if the passage of time in the realm of life and death is the same as the outside world!"
"That'd be best, otherwise I definitely would have missed the Daozong Grand Competition!"
Jiang Yun's divine sense spread wildly, quickly finding a world and rushing into it without even looking. He found someone and inquired about information.
As a result, he let out a sigh of relief.
Although he wasted a few days in the realm of life and death, the location of this realm was not too far from the Questioning Dao Heaven. It would take only three to five days to reach it.
And the contest in Heaven has just begun!
A day's time, the Shan Hai Fen Zong probably hasn't taken their turn in the competition yet. If I'm fast enough and lucky, I might still catch the Dao Zong Grand Competition!
Thinking of this, Jiang Yun naturally didn't linger any longer. His figure flashed like lightning as he hurried towards the Questioning Heaven Pagoda.
