Chapter 105 Daluoxian

Shen Cihang slapped his thigh and asked in astonishment: "The hook snake you are talking about, is it more than 20 meters long, with a red body and two scorpion-like tails forked at the end?"

"I have never seen the true form of the hook snake demon, but there are indeed two red tails behind her body that look like large scorpion tail needles." said the green-faced demon ghost.

Shen Cihang exhaled and said to Zheng Wenjie seriously: "If I am not mistaken, the hook snake is a strange beast that has cultivated for thousands of years. It was first recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas."

Zheng Wenjie's heart moved. The origin, time and author of Shan Hai Jing are all untraceable, but based on existing records, the mainstream view is that Shan Hai Jing was completed in the Xia Dynasty.

Shen Cihang hesitated and looked at Zheng Wenjie and said, "Master Ferryman?"

"Hmm?" Zheng Wenjie came back to his senses. Seeing Shen Cihang's expression, he understood that he had something to say that was inconvenient for the public to tell him. Zheng Wenjie looked at the green-faced demon and asked, "Anything else?"

The green-faced demon shook his head and said, "Sir, Hook Snake only treats me as a reluctant servant."

Zheng Wenjie raised his eyebrows: "There were two ferrymen, the first one was swallowed by the hook snake, what about the second one?"

"The second lord, I don't know anything about it." The green-faced demon shook his head seriously and continued, "I have never met the second ferryman, but according to what the soul-collecting messenger said, that day... the ferryman should have followed behind me."

"Twenty years ago, I began to practice the cultivation method given by the Hook Snake Demon. I remember that day very clearly. The Hook Snake Demon was very happy at that time and ordered me to find a boy and girl with the water element in their destiny."

Shen Cihang asked hurriedly: "Do you know what happened to the boy and girl?"

The green-faced demon shook his head and said, "Since then, I have never seen the hook snake demon again, nor have I seen the boy and girl."

Shen Cihang looked at Zheng Wenjie solemnly: "I think I may know what happened."

"Then just say it, why are you keeping us in suspense!" Tang Xue scolded impatiently when she saw Shen Cihang hesitated several times to speak.

"Alright!" Zheng Wenjie glanced at Tang Xue and said, waving at the soul-collecting messengers: "Today is just a meeting with everyone. Everyone should do their job and leave now."

"Wait!" Zheng Wenjie looked at the green-faced demon ghost: "Where is the island where the hook snake is located?"

After noting down the location of the island, Zheng Wenjie looked at the leading soul-collecting messenger and said, "From today on, you will be in charge of them. I can let them go if they make a small mistake, but if you continue to collect souls of living people at random, I will beat you to death as well."

"I understand." The soul-catcher replied with a happy look on his face and bowed repeatedly.

"Go! Send him directly to the underworld and give him a hand." Zheng Wenjie pointed at the green-faced demon and said,
After the soul-catcher agreed, he brought his men to suppress the green-faced demon ghost. After the cold wind blew, they all left the Li family villa.

"Have you... walked yet?" Su Wan'er and Hua Rong were already hugging each other. He Yu and the Li brothers were also huddled together. Su Wan'er asked after hearing Zheng Wenjie's words and feeling less cold.

Shen Cihang nodded and said in a deep voice: "You guys go upstairs and check on Li Zhi first! The matter has been resolved, and he should be waking up soon."

Hua Rong pulled Su Wan'er's wrist and said, "Okay, masters, take a rest first, and we'll go upstairs to see Li Zhi first."

"You come up too!" Hua Rong said to the Li brothers and He Yu, then she pulled Su Wan'er upstairs, and He Yu and the other two followed obediently.

Shen Cihang looked at Zheng Wenjie and said in a deep voice: "If I remember correctly, the hook snake was recorded in the inheritance book of my sect."

"It was mentioned above that the Hook Snake ravaged the coastal lands thousands of years ago, causing great suffering to the people. It was forced into the sea by the joint efforts of the Shuzhong Sword Immortal and Lingyin Temple." "When the Hook Snake was about to be saved by Lingyin Temple, the East China Sea Dragon Clan suddenly appeared. The Dragon King of the Earthly Immortal Realm appeared and vouched for the Hook Snake, taking her into the East China Sea to suppress her."

"Earthly Immortal? What kind of strength is that?" Zheng Wenjie thought of the Ma family's dragon.

"Earthly immortals are the Arhats of our Hinayana Buddhism." Shen Cihang replied casually, and then said: "The East China Sea is isolated from the world. The detailed records of the True Dragon Clan living in the human world were during the Qin Dynasty."

"After the Qin Dynasty, the True Dragon Clan opened up a small world and named it the East China Sea. Since then, few True Dragons have appeared in the world, and countless water creatures have also been moved into the East China Sea. That's why there are very few traces of water monsters now."

"The Dragon Tribe has also forbidden the Water Tribe from leaving the East Sea and entering the human world. But if the Hook Snake really left the East Sea and returned to the human world, we will never be her opponent."

Zheng Wenjie thought for a while and asked, "It shouldn't be possible for Hook Snake to improve his cultivation to the level of an Earthly Immortal in these thousand years, right?"

Shen Cihang shook his head solemnly: "I don't know either. This matter must be reported to all localities as soon as possible, and preparations must be made early to avoid another tragedy."

Zheng Wenjie waved his hand nonchalantly and said with a smile: "Let's go to that island together tomorrow and see what happens."

Zheng Wenjie looked at the silent and heavy-hearted Shen Cihang and said, "I would like to know what realm is above the Earthly Immortal? What realm is Hades Ah Cha in?"

Shen Cihang exhaled and said, "The realm above the earthly immortals is the celestial immortals. As long as the immortals at this realm do not encounter the five signs of decay, they can live as long as the heavens. The Hades should be the Daluo immortal above the celestial immortals."

"A Daluo Immortal can suppress a world by himself, and can destroy the heavens and the earth with a wave of his hand. The Queen Mother of the West in Kunlun Immortal Realm and the King of Hell in the Underworld should be Daluo Immortals."

Zheng Wenjie frowned and thought over and over again about Shen Cihang's words. He must have been shocked by the news about Hook Snake, and his speech was not logical.

Zheng Wenjie murmured in his heart. According to what Shen Cihang said, Zhao Li's previous life was nameless, and he was at the level of an Arhat in Buddhism, which was equivalent to a terrestrial immortal in Taoism.

Above the earthly immortals are the celestial immortals, and above the celestial immortals are the Daluo immortals.

Wuming was easily suppressed by Hades, whose cultivation level was at least that of a celestial being.

The Queen Mother of the West is a great immortal, and it is obvious that Hades A-Cha is no match for her. If Hades, who is also a great immortal, wanted to resurrect Chi You, he would not have to go through so much trouble.

But Shen Cihang also said that the King of Hell is a Daluo Immortal, so there should be an unspoken rule that the master of a world all has the cultivation level of a Daluo Immortal.

And she also knew that Hades's cultivation was not accurate, so she should be between the Daluo Immortal and the Celestial Immortal.

Although he could suppress Hades with all his strength, he definitely had not yet reached the realm of Daluo Immortal. In this sense, he should be considered a pseudo-Daluo Immortal.

After figuring this out, Zheng Wenjie felt that the road ahead was clear. At least he had a direction that could serve as a goal. In this way, as long as he could break through to the Red Eye, he would be able to compare with the Queen Mother of the West, the Lord of Kunlun.

Smiling and touching Tang Xue's hair beside him, Zheng Wenjie's heart gradually calmed down. He still had to take his time and do everything according to the plan.

Zheng Wenjie looked at Shen Cihang and said, "You don't have to worry. Come see me tomorrow and we will go out to sea together to find the hook snake."

After Zheng Wenjie finished speaking, he told Shen Cihang the address and asked Tang Xue to go up and tell the Li family. Then he returned to the villa with Su Wan'er and Hua Rong seeing him off.
