Lord of the Earth

Chapter 316: Refining falsehood into reality, pages of the book of life and death

"You bull-headed and horse-faced judges who pervert the law, just wait... Once a certain person and I gain power, we must sweep away the evil atmosphere and evil atmosphere in hell... Ah!"

He Shen opened his eyes suddenly, sweat pouring from his chubby round face.

"Emperor of Heaven... no, Lord City Lord? So it turns out this is just..."

It took a while before he woke up.

Mainly because this time the "illusion" was too real, He Shen could even clearly remember how painful and torturous he was in the "Eighteen Levels of Hell".

Moreover, it is not just one or two days, but a whole hundred years.

"Sir, I'm afraid He Shen's performance is a little embarrassing... I'm making you laugh..."

He Shen's face looked a little sad.

After all, after entering the "Taixu Illusion Realm", he has been passively "being beaten" from beginning to end, acting like a cow or a horse.

There is no good performance at all, it can be said that it is always useless!

Even if it is false now, it can still be true in the future!

"As long as we follow closely around him, if Bai Yujing really becomes the 'Heavenly Court', although Shen and I can't be the first generals like 'General Zhao Yun', we can at least be able to get positions like the God of Wealth, right?"

As the saying goes, you have something to think about every day and something to dream about at night.

[Remarks] The names on the book pages can be changed, but it requires a certain amount of your own luck.

"When the false becomes true, the true is also false. There is something inaction and nothingness."

Although it does have some "artifact" abilities!

But it is just a golden treasure, which is far from the real Book of Life and Death.

Billions of hell creatures paid homage, and in their own eyes, they all bowed down and knelt down!

"Is that true?"

The Book of Life and Death, something of this level has come out?

However, take a closer look.

Astonishingly, it was a book in an illusory state made of black material and shrouded in mist, with the three characters "Book of Life and Death" written on it!

"Good guy!"

"Book of Life and Death, a fake, a rare treasure?"

However, those "low-level" experiences in the dream at least made the once-high-ranking "Master He" understand the sufferings of ordinary people, and even more deeply hate some corruption and perversion of the law.

He Shen felt a strong desire in his heart.

Xia Tian's eyes widened and he called out "good guy".

He Shen couldn't help but think of the words on the archway he saw when he entered the "Taixu Illusion Realm".

【Type】Exotic treasure

[Features] Leave a name (people who leave their names in the Book of Life and Death will have all the deeds they have experienced in their lives appear on it), Reincarnation (after encountering death, you can use the Book of Life and Death to 'resurrection' once, and you need to consume the page of the Book of Life and Death)

This is the scene when Xia Tian, ​​the "Emperor of Heaven", inspects hell.

However, Xia Tian's eyes couldn't help but widen because of the item that could "refining falsehood into reality".

Xia Tian's words did not contain much blame.

As a "test" set by the city lord, no matter how you look at your performance, you should be unqualified!

However, in addition to the various sufferings he suffered, Heshen's memory is equally profound.

"This Taixu illusion is mainly based on dreams, and it blocks people's memories. Everything is not completely controlled by oneself. You can say at the end that you want to punish these corrupt officials and bad habits. This is already a breakthrough within yourself..."

The dream itself in this "too illusory realm" is aimed at the "flaws" in people's hearts.

However, something unexpected happened.

[Book of Life and Death·Book Pages (Gold)]

As a golden hero with high potential, He Shen's increased control after "clearing" Taixu Illusion Realm is not too high, even only half of Huang Rong's.

Therefore, except for Huang Rong, the performance of everyone else, including himself, could only be said to be unsatisfactory before entering it.

Just because it appears in the field of vision.

But seeing Xia Tian recognized himself.

Although it cannot be said that he suddenly changed from a corrupt official to an upright official, at least he has a certain ability to empathize with ordinary people, which can be considered a success.

However, this is normal.

This is actually not in line with the expectations at the beginning of summer.

Obviously, this is just a book of life and death in an "illusory dream".

It is obvious that the state of mind of this corrupt official in history has indeed changed, and his pursuit of power does not seem to have weakened, but has become more intense.

[A human hero entered the 'Taixu Illusion Realm' through the secret realm passage under your control and completed an 'experience'. Because of your identity as a human lord, your control over the secret realm is +0.5%, and you gained a consumption of luck. The opportunity to "refining falsehood into reality" from the illusion of Taixu...]

In fact, the items that can be evolved from the Taixu Illusion Realm are themselves restricted by the current rules of the Eternal Land.

[Explanation] "Projection", one of the legendary human underworld artifacts, can "refine falsehood into reality" by consuming 10,000 luck.

"I didn't expect that in the illusion, the Lord of the City turned out to be the 'Emperor of Heaven'..."

Moreover, for Xia Tian, ​​after He Shen clears the customs, another "gain" may be the key point.

"Although I can't say it's very good, it can be considered qualified..."

He Shen immediately breathed a sigh of relief. It was not in vain that he had spent hundreds of years of hard work in this illusion.

He really doesn't know, is this good or bad?

At present, it is impossible to truly have super artifacts such as "Book of Life and Death and List of Gods".

Of course, to Xia Tian, ​​this thing definitely still has a certain "value".

Although it is true that "a country is easy to change, but a person's nature is hard to change."

He Shen may still be greedy for money and power.

But this piece of "paper" with his name written on it is enough to put it on the forehead of "the most corrupt official in ancient China" like a curse!

He can also observe the opponent's every move at any time, so he can naturally use this controversial figure with confidence.

Of course, for He Shen, this is not necessarily a bad thing.

When encountering danger in the future, if Xia Tian notices it, he will naturally take action.

The most important thing is that this "reincarnation" function is equivalent to giving He Shen a chance to "resurrection". This is the real life-saving artifact!

Of course, if He Shen's performance is unsatisfactory, Xia Tian doesn't mind, he will cross out the name on this "life and death book" and change it to another person.

"Next, the territory will prepare for the auction. You already know the specific process. However, this time, the auction needs to be of a higher level... because, in addition to the original human lords, there may be some special events this time. Prince-level figures in history, such as Lu Bu and Song Jiang..."

Then, Xia Tian looked at He Shen and said.

"Lu Bu, Song Jiang! Are these two people also near our Bai Yujing? Don't worry, sir, He Shen will be well prepared!"

Xia Tian discovered that He Shen had another benefit.

That is, his era was far behind enough.

As a person who died almost in modern times, only one year away from the 19th century, and in order to cater to Qianlong's preferences, He Shen really worked hard in history, culture, and military.

Therefore, it can be said that I can know the lives of most ancient people very accurately, and they have a lot in common with me!

Most importantly, he really knows how to acquire wealth.

You must know that the "fine" that Xia Tian set for those water tribe forces before was only 10,000 spirit stones, but from the account book, He Shen collected treasures worth almost 15,000.

It even made a leader of the water tribe feel grateful to him, thinking that having more friends was a good thing, as it would make him have a good impression in front of the "army commander".

Xia Tian was actually quite happy to see such "greed for money".

"You and Master Hongfu Pavilion should discuss it together. My request is that this auction will not only be an auction, but also an 'arms display' in itself... I hope it can be done to a certain extent." Subjugate the enemy's troops without fighting, and win some peace for the territory!"

And after Heshen walked to Fangshi with excitement and the "appointment letter" he left a message on.

"However, speaking of which, it's time to visit the 'Underworld' in this territory..."

Xia Tian remembered something.

After walking out of the lord's mansion, I walked alone. The clouds and mist flowed under my feet, and I came to the edge of the "Houtu God Statue".

Different from ordinary strange buildings, the Houtu Statue is actually quite special.

It requires a large amount of "power of faith" to grow, and a certain number of "believers" to maintain its power.

Thanks to the previous defeat of a large number of catastrophic creatures and the circulation of Tianyuan coins, a large number of "Silver Beads of Willing Power" have been accumulated in these days.

Xia Tian relied on the "Midas Turning Stone" to transform everything into "Houtu's exclusive" power of faith, which also made this "Human God Statue" even more majestic now!

And below the statue, where the five-color spiritual soil gathered, the "Bone Burial Ground" that had sunk into the ground has now changed greatly from its original appearance.

Although it is still filled with mist, you can vaguely see an illusory road to the underworld, leading directly to an equally illusory palace with the words "Underworld" written on it!

And at the intersection.

"Lord City Lord!"

Several tall and fully armed barbarians saluted immediately after seeing Xia Tian. All these barbarians are fanatical believers of "Houtu", and they pray devoutly to the "Houtu Statue" three times a day. For Xia Tian, ​​he can maintain the Houtu Statue without promoting the "god" belief on a large scale. A channel of power!

In addition, these barbarians came back from the "Taotie Island" and did not have much contact with the people of Bai Yujing. In a sense, they were also very suitable for guarding the "Hulao" located in the "underworld". Work.

"Well, where is Old Man Bone?"

"I'm playing chess with that girl in Hulao..."

Next to the "Tiger Prison". .

Two human beings, one old and one young, hold chess pieces in their forehands and are making moves on a Go table made of the same stone.

The black and white chess pieces fell with a clear "click" sound, forming two black and white dragons entwining each other, fiercely attacking and defending each other.

An important function of the "underworld" derived from the Houtu statue is to restore the appearance of the "undead" to its normal form before death.

It has to be said that as the "High Priest of the Houtu God Sect" who was personally ordered to serve, Mr. Gu's original appearance is indeed "quite a leader", with a heroic appearance and a kind attitude, and he especially likes to support the younger generations!

Speaking of which, these two people in front of me.

One person is a "dead monk", and the power on his body symbolizes death. The other person is a "wood monk", and his power symbolizes life!

On the contrary, it fits well with the black and white game of Go.

"Young Miss Siming is really a master of chess, but I lost again in the middle game... I have to say that this way of 'playing chess' is really profound. I thought I had achieved something in my studies these days, but I still have a huge gap. Far away."

After a black and white confrontation, Yi Gu Lao praised Young Siming and was defeated.

Although, due to his physical condition, Gu Lao spends most of his time in this "underworld", he is not isolated from the world.

In fact, in order to better spread the concept of "Houtu Gods" and help the gods "come" to the eternal land as soon as possible, Mr. Gu has been carefully studying various knowledge of the "Shenzhou Human Race"!

This human civilization that has spread for thousands of years and been passed down by countless people also makes him feel countless novelties.

What's more important is that the outstanding figures of this human civilization called "Chinese" are like crucian carp crossing the river in endlessly!

You know, Shao Siming didn't learn Go at all before, but he was able to beat him in just a few days. This is the gap in potential between the two sides!

If he could encounter those "soul tribes" again, he would definitely be able to avenge the "genocide" for his own tribe.

"Lord City Lord..."

Because he was too involved in playing chess, Mr. Gu noticed that Xia Tian had been watching the two of them playing chess for a while, and he hurriedly got up.

"It's okay, Mr. Gu doesn't need to be polite... I just have time to take a look at Mr. Gu and this girl."

Xia Tian looked at Shao Siming.

On the latter's body, an illusory black chain can be seen, which is placed around the neck, extends for a distance and then merges into the "Tiger Prison"!

This is not the "shackles of heaven and earth" in the eternal land, but the evolution of Wu Song from his own miraculous objects.

Once you are shackled, you will be restricted by the emblem. You will not be able to use all your spiritual energy, and you will not be able to leave the "Tiger Prison" too far.

Even if you escape with some special space treasures, you will still be pulled back by the "Tiger Prison"!

"I have been in seclusion these past few days, but I forgot to thank Miss Siming for helping solve the problem of 'Tang Bohu'."

"Now, his condition has improved and he should be able to wake up soon."

Just like, the judgment before summer.

Hua Tuo, who has extraordinary medical skills, Lai Buyi, who has extraordinary Feng Shui skills, and Shao Siming, an elder of the Yin and Yang family, jointly solved the "soul separation technique" on Tang Bohu without much difficulty.

Hua Tuo even seemed to have gained something vaguely, and was ready to try to research some kind of medicine that could target this "soul separation technique".

However, Shao Siming was willing to help because although the two were "enemies", they had faced the rioting "Mechanism Beast Qinglong" before, and Xia Tian used the "Taotie Cauldron" to forcibly absorb the power of thunder and save her. Life.

That's why she was willing to take action to remove the soul-leaving technique of "Donghuang Taiyi"!

And Xia Tian also reciprocates the favor, although as a "prisoner", he will be imprisoned around this "Tiger Prison".

But Shao Siming can actually move freely to a certain extent.

Reading, playing chess, drinking tea, even practicing dancing...

And all of this was naturally because Xia Tian fell in love with Shao Siming's "body".

Yes, I have a crush on people.

Generally speaking, the army and departments in Baiyu Jingzhong will have two commanders, one commander and one deputy.

The comprehensive value of the "Houtu God Statue" and the derived "Yincao Underworld" to Bai Yujing is definitely not inferior to the "Langhuan Jade Mansion" and other buildings.

Because of this, in addition to the high priest "Old Bone", Xia Tian is also preparing to add another commander.

Because it would not be appropriate for a relatively "key" position like this to be completely in the hands of a human race from another world!

Even though Gu Lao didn't show any ambition.

But Xia Tian still feels that it is necessary to add a person from Earth.

And there is no doubt that the girl in front of him is a very suitable candidate.

The word Shao Siming itself refers to the gods in the legend of Chu during the Warring States Period who control human life, soul, life, death, misfortune, and other related gods.

Although, the Yin Yang family only used this name to set up the "position" of the sect.

But it’s not aimless.

At least, Shao Siming does have a lot of attainments in these aspects, and he is someone who can definitely meet the requirements of this "Houtu Saint"!

The only problem is probably that Shao Siming is too taciturn.

Even though he became a prisoner, he didn't panic after waking up.

Even after Xia Tian said that the Yin and Yang family chose to exchange public wealth and lose hatred, not her.

There is not much surprise on his face!

Instead, he calmly accepted that he was abandoned by the Yin Yang family and became a "captive".

He was very safe in the tiger prison these days, and he didn't do anything extraordinary or try to escape.

But if you want to recruit her into the territory, or even become a "houtu saint", this seems not enough?

After all, even if it’s just for window dressing. It's not like making a "mute" saint, right?

What's more, the high priest, Bone Lao, himself cannot speak in a normal way.

Another cold-blooded "holy girl" who also doesn't speak!

It is really far away to truly expand or even maintain a "Houtu God Statue".

"Well, you don't want to talk or communicate with others. This seems to be some kind of psychological problem?"

Xia Tian suddenly thought of something.

Speaking of which, in the original world.

In the beginning, Shao Siming was just an elite disciple of the Yin Yang family who was very talented in practicing Yin Yang magic and was known as the "Five Spirits Xuantong"!

Although the Yin Yang family is a branch of "Taoism", it has already gradually embarked on an evil path.

They even want to replace Taoism and become "authentic".

Once, a man sneaked into the Yin Yang family camp and became an elite disciple.

But his true identity is that of a young man who is a Taoist Tianzong disciple who is looking for his sister "Xiaoyi", but his identity is exposed because of his lack of confidentiality!

The senior officials of the Yin Yang Family, Donghuang Taiyi, Yueshen and others arranged for him to have a duel with "Shao Siming" who was also a disciple of "Five Spirits Xuantong" at that time.

During the duel, the "little spirit" who had the upper hand seemed to have noticed something, and was voluntarily executed by the girl with the "Manye Flying Flower Style"...

As a result, this girl from the Wood Department's "Five Spirits Xuantong" was promoted to become the new generation of Yin-Yang family's Wood Department elder "Shao Siming".

"When I saw Shao Siming's name with my insightful eye before, he called him 'Xiao Yi'... Could it be that..."

Xia Tian vaguely guessed something in his heart.

What if he was really forced to execute himself under the orders of his master, and risked his own life to find his brother for the sake of his family?

So it is understandable that Shao Siming has become taciturn since then, and he is not too sad about being abandoned by the senior officials of the Yin Yang family.

However, one must find a way to relieve such emotions, otherwise it is very likely that one will stop at the Five Extraordinary Realms.

"Fortunately, Bai Yujing now really has a channel that can solve psychological problems..."

Heshen's "greed" and "official" style at heart are his own psychological problems, which have been "improved" to a certain extent after going through the Taixu illusion.

And Shao Siming obviously also has "psychological" problems, so the "Taixu Illusion" probably also applies!

"If you are willing, crush a 'token' and enter the sea of ​​illusion to face your heart. Maybe you can find the answer you want?"

Summer between fingers.

Some luck condensed and turned into a "token" that exuded jade-white light. After leaving it behind, it left under the gaze of the masked girl.

"Taixu Illusion?"

Shao Siming stared at the writing on the token. Under the veil, his eyes were as deep as pools of water.

After a long time, he slowly reached out and picked it up.
