Chapter 165: You should climb over the mountains like a brave man

In the underworld, the soul body is the mainstream. The soul body is like the physical body in the human world. On the contrary, the human physical body will be corroded in the underworld. Therefore, if a mortal without a soul body constitution enters the underworld by mistake, he will die soon and his physical body will be completely corroded.

Soul body is just a general term, which can be divided into spirit body and soul body. The spirit body is born like this, and all native creatures born in the underworld are like this, while the soul body is the form of the souls of creatures from other worlds and planes after their death and coming to the underworld. Although it is essentially the same as the spirit body, there are still some differences.

The souls in the underworld are no different from the physical bodies in the human world. They will bleed and get injured. The evil spirits are equivalent to the evil ghosts in the human world. The souls in the underworld turn into evil spirits, which is equivalent to the souls dying again in the underworld. The evil spirits will not bleed and get injured. After death, they will directly turn into a wisp of black smoke and dissipate.

Gods cannot survive for long in the underworld. The power of gods and spiritual power are actually both one kind of energy in essence, but the power of gods is of higher quality and level. Spiritual power cannot replenish the power of gods. Therefore, gods cannot absorb the spiritual power of the underworld to make up for the consumption, and cannot maintain themselves. If this goes on for a long time, they will die. Therefore, gods in the underworld often transform into divine martial spirits and rely on spirit hosts. After becoming divine martial spirits, it is possible for spiritual power and divine power to be transformed. With a spirit host as a hub, spiritual power can be used to replenish the divine martial spirit.

Unlike other guardian spirits, the Shenwu Spirit is not necessarily transformed from the spirit of a god. A living Shenwu Spirit can also be transformed into a Shenwu Spirit. This is the case with the Tiangang Dragon Riders and the god-summoning spell taught by Ying Chengfeng.

In a sense, the transformation of a divine spirit into a divine martial spirit is a kind of demotion. The transformation of a divine spirit into a spirit does not necessarily require the death of the divine spirit. As for human martial spirits, since the living and the dead are completely different, they are of equal status and there is no such thing as demotion, so they can only be transformed after death.

Li Cunxiao easily dealt with the four tiger generals under Huang Chao, but at this moment Li Cunxiao was not in the state of Jiao Re, but in the state of Da Jiao Re. Since they were old enemies meeting and a thousand years of grudges were to be settled in one day, Li Ye naturally wanted Li Cunxiao to fight to his heart's content. He could not hold back General Feihu, so he used the power of the Seven Stars to bless Li Cunxiao, allowing Li Cunxiao to temporarily reach the state of Da Jiao Re.

Obviously, Li Cunxiao, who is at the same level as the so-called Four Tiger Generals, can deal with them easily and happily, even easier than a thousand years ago. After a thousand years, the gap between them has become an inconceivable chasm. Li Cunxiao has already killed the Divine Martial Spirits, while they are still accomplices and causing chaos.

Looking at Ge Congzhou, Zhang Guiba, Deng Tianwang and Meng Juehai who collapsed in different places, Li Cunxiao recalled the scenes after becoming undead. Countless pictures from the past flew and flashed quickly in his mind.

Everyone has his own destiny, which is determined by God. Some people are born to be kings, while others become bandits. If the road under your feet is not your own choice, then no one knows where the end of the journey is. Where you will go and who you will meet are uncertain. And I will also embark on a journey with an unknown end.

God may only bless the strong, or he may ignore justice. Fortunately, human righteousness is not controlled by God at all. We can just break the rules that go against our will. Under this sky, I think I can still find companions. If one day I am forced to become a Shura and put on butcher's clothes, I hope I am not alone!

In this life, people are always looking for their own way of living. Some people live a life of leisure and ease. Some people act vigorously and seek to be remembered for generations. But no one has ever thought about where to go next. The nothingness of the underworld is a feeling that the human world has never experienced. Once there is no purpose and self, it becomes a walking corpse. Thousands of years ago, Li Cunxiao was captured by his adoptive father Li Keyong. On that day, the sky and the earth changed color. On the battlefield, flags fluttered, sand and stones flew, blood could float oars, and corpses and blood were everywhere. The Tang army led by Li Cunxiao and the Jin army under Li Keyong fought against each other. Li Cunxiao rushed left and right, invincible, and no one could stop him. Unfortunately, human power is limited. For mortals, personal bravery cannot determine the outcome of a battle between thousands of troops. Under heavy siege, even if he was an invincible general, he could only be defeated and captured by the Jin army.

In the end, Li Keyong decided to sentence Li Cunxiao to death by being torn apart by a chariot.

Strangely enough, on the day he was torn apart by five horses, the weather was sunny but suddenly it was cloudy. (Lie apart by five horses: commonly known as five horses dismembering a person, it involves tying the prisoner's limbs and head to five horses and whipping the horses to dismember the prisoner. It is usually done while the prisoner is still alive.)
When the five horses pulled out with all their strength, Li Cunxiao's wrists and ankles, due to their innate reaction, naturally generated strength and pulled the five horses back alive! This happened dozens of times in a row.

Seeing this, Li Cunxiao realized that Li Keyong really wanted to kill him, so he became disheartened and determined to die.

Li Cunxiao, who was determined to die, told Li Cunxin: "Let me tell you, if you want to kill me, there is only one way, that is to cut my tendons in my hands and feet so that my hands and feet cannot exert force; break my knees and elbows so that my limbs cannot be connected, and then use the strength of five horses to kill me. You and I have been brothers for so many years, just give me a quick death for your sake."

Finally, according to him, the five horses galloped together and finally separated Li Cunxiao completely. The invincible general of a generation, the unrivaled Thirteen Guardians, died unjustly.

He was torn to pieces but survived, which is the only one in the world. After Li Cunxiao's death, Li Keyong also quickly declined, and the world eventually fell into the hands of Zhu Quanzhong.

After Li Cunxiao died, he came to the underworld. At that time, the Zhenhun Street where he was located was in chaos and confusion. The endless wars in the human world made this place full of evil spirits, which devoured each other. Many powerful evil spirits were born, and there were also undead spirits similar to him. In order to survive, they kept getting stronger in battle. There was no order, no morality, only endless wars.

Until the arrival of Li Cunxiao, he had forgotten who he was, his name, his origins, and why he came here. But the pain of his body being torn apart and his muscles and bones being broken was still vivid in his mind. He didn't know why he had to endure such pain. In his mind, there was only a little picture of his life. In the picture, he held the King of Yu's Mountain Spear in his right hand, the Bi Yan Chaotian Claw in his left hand, and rode a red flame horse under his crotch. He trampled all challengers and opponents under his feet. No one could survive three rounds in his hands, and no one could resist his peerless martial arts. All opponents were ants in his eyes.

He is like a brave man who crossed the mountains and became a peerless peak that others could hardly reach.
