Chapter 83: First time entering the Spirit Realm, treasure hunting in the Spirit Pavilion
Spiritual realm
Li Ye followed the spirit envoy Yi Ze and spent two days to reach the center of the underworld, the center of all the soul-relief streets - the spirit realm.
The Spirit Realm is an extremely huge capital city in the center with very strong defense force, not to mention there is a solid barrier between it and the Soul-Realm Street - the Sky Wall!
Everywhere you look, you can see magnificent palaces and floors paved with the finest white jade, which has a warm and lustrous sheen. It is magnificent and extravagant!
Even Li Ye was a little shocked. No wonder the rulers of the Spirit Realm were said to be so corrupt. They really knew how to enjoy themselves.
Because Li Ye was just a general of the Hall of Heroes, an ordinary Soul-Suppressing General, even if he was ordered by the Spirit-Controlling Envoy, he had to enter through the side door with the Spirit-Controlling Envoy Yi Ze.
After all, his status is still too low now, and Yu Ling Shi Li only values his qualifications and performance, and just wants to find a sharp blade that suits him.
Li has never had a good impression of humans!
Li Ye looked at the magnificent main city gate. Many defenders nearby were looking at him with strange eyes.
"Just wait, sooner or later I will come riding in on my horse!"
One day, he, Li Ye, will lead the Tang Dynasty's cavalry to the spiritual realm and see all the flowers in the underworld in one day!
To reach this level, if you don’t have the strength that even Yu Lingshi is afraid of, it would be tantamount to seeking death!
After all, the strength is not strong enough.
Strength is the root of everything!!
Soon, Yi Ze brought Li Ye to the outside of a courtyard. He turned around and said to Li Ye with a smile:
"General Li, Lord Li usually handles government affairs here, you just need to follow me. General Li, please remember that Lord Li has a bad temper and hates humans, you must not offend Lord Li!!"
At the end, Yize restrained his smile a little and spoke in a respectful and low voice.
Li Ye had a gentle and calm face, deep eyes, and bowed to Yi Ze and said:
"Thank you, Lord Yi, for your advice."
Seeing that Li Ye was so sensible and understanding, Yi Ze felt quite satisfied and relieved. Humans are not so troublesome!
Li Ye followed Yi Ze into the room from the corner gate, passed through the hanging flower gate, and walked along the long corridor towards the depths of the courtyard.
Li Ye did not look to the side, but just a cursory glance made him feel that it was extremely majestic and solemn, and grand and majestic.
This old man is really not clean. I wonder how much he has embezzled during all these years when he was in a high position in the Spirit Realm!
Yi Ze whispered to the soldiers guarding outside the pavilion and explained the situation, then said to Li Ye:
"General Li, Lord Li is inside."
As he spoke, Yize helped Li Ye tidy up his clothes, and then gave him an encouraging look, which left Li Ye stunned.
Afterwards, Li Ye walked in without changing his expression, and entered a spacious and elegant room, which was beautifully and luxuriously decorated.
"Tsk, as expected of a Spirit Master, your attire is so luxurious!"
Li Ye watched him silently out of the corner of his eye, sighing inwardly at the infinite greed of the Spirit Master.
An old man with a solemn face and elegant clothes was standing behind the long desk. His eyes were full of spiritual light, as if they contained wind, rain and thunder. He was staring at Li Ye intently, as if he wanted to see through him! It was the most prominent person in the history of the eight imperial spirits, Li!
Li Ye understood immediately, his heart was filled with shock but his face was calm. He bowed to the old man in fancy clothes and said:
"Greetings, Lord Li!"
After a long while, Yuling Shi Li only hummed lightly in response, and then ignored him, lowered his head to look at the desk, and just let Li Ye stand there with his hands clasped.
Obviously, he wanted to curb Li Ye's arrogance so that he could use him for his own benefit.
"Although this person has made great contributions, has extraordinary talents and great potential, his natural arrogance... humph, he still needs to be tempered! Let me see if he has any resentment in his heart!!"
Yu Ling Shili snorted coldly.
It's all nonsense that he values Li Ye. He just wants to further control the Hall of Heroes and increase his own strength and voice!
He supported Li Ye only because he regarded Li Ye as a springboard to control the Hall of Heroes and as the spokesperson for his own forces, in order to gain more political capital and benefits for him and to gain greater power for him.
Li Ye's expression remained unchanged. He kept his hands clasped and his eyes lowered. His deep and calm eyes were fixed on the white jade bricks and porcelain under his feet, without revealing the slightest resentment.
But the four guardian spirits in his body were already furious.
Li Ye knew that this was Yuling Shi Li's way of intimidating him and setting rules for him, but he could only endure it for now.
He could sense an unusually obscure aura in this room, which was stronger than his own, and in the courtyard there were also several auras that were as hot as burning flames.
One high-level Great Scorcher and several ordinary Great Scorchers!
Li Ye would not be so stupid as to kill old man Li and commit suicide.
Only by enduring what others cannot endure can you gain what others cannot gain!
In the past, Emperor Taizong was suppressed by Emperor Li Yuan, Crown Prince Li Jiancheng, and Prince of Qi Li Yuanji, and the Qin Palace was even hollowed out for a time. However, Emperor Taizong was able to respond calmly, judge the situation, and tolerate for several years. Finally, he launched the Xuanwu Gate Incident and turned the tide.
"No wonder Xiang Kunlun wanted to tear your head off and use it as a chamber pot in the comics!"
"Old Li, from now on, I want to twist your head off and use it as a chamber pot! I mean what I say, the day I ride into the Spirit Realm, your head will fall to the ground!"
After a long while, Yuling Shi Li raised his eyes to look at Li Ye again. Seeing that he was respectfully bowing, he said in a deep voice:
"Okay, Li Ye, raise your head!"
He wanted to see whether this boy was harboring any resentment!
Li Ye's face was calm, his pair of deep black eyes were as still as an ancient well, without a trace of emotion.
Yu Ling Shi Li was silent for a moment before saying:
"If Dead Soul Island hadn't recommended you to me, and if you hadn't made such a great contribution with my support, you wouldn't have been able to see me. Just now, I was just testing your loyalty to the Spirit Realm. Do you harbor any resentment?!"
His eyes, full of intelligence, stared at Li Ye.
"Your Excellency, no!"
Li Ye answered with a frank look.
He really had no resentment, only murderous intent!
It's just that this murderous intent is hidden very deeply, very well.
Yuling Shi Li had been looking into Li Ye's eyes the whole time. Hearing this, he felt slightly satisfied:
"That's good! The Hall of Heroes is now temporarily led by Lu Shuyu, but he makes us very dissatisfied! As a descendant of Li Tang and the holder of the strongest human martial spirit, you have great potential, but your strength is not enough. Do you understand what I mean?!"
Yuling Shi Li sat upright on the chair, looking arrogant and domineering.
Immediately afterwards, he began to scold Li Ye without any regard for his dignity.
In his opinion, a human who is not as powerful as a Great Jiaore is still a dog, even if that person has the combat power of a Great Jiaore and is the holder of the strongest human martial spirit! Even if he becomes a Great Jiaore, he is still a bigger dog!
Li Ye silently chanted the Heart Purification Mantra the whole time. He was afraid that he would not be able to resist and stab the old man with a sword! His mind moved slightly, and his imperial soul flickered. Three feet above Li Ye's head, a purple-gold dragon of destiny quietly appeared, looking around with brilliance and awe-inspiring majesty.
He has never used this trick before, so today he will try out its power on this old man Li!
As soon as the purple-gold dragon of luck appeared, it happily devoured the incomparably rich power of luck that was overflowing between heaven and earth.
Yuling Shi Li was unaware of this and continued to denounce the disloyalty and injustice of human beings, warning Li Ye to take it as a warning, completely ignoring the fact that Li Ye was also a human being.
Through the Emperor's Soul, Li Ye could clearly see a majestic pillar of luck and light supporting the heaven and earth above the spiritual realm. It stood tall and upright, but a large amount of luck and force was constantly leaking out.
Above Yuling Shi Li's head, there was also an incomparably majestic and magnificent pillar of luck and fortune, which was closely connected with the pillar of light that symbolized the luck of the spiritual realm. And entwined on his pillar of light was a ferocious and hideous hundred-foot-long dragon snake.
Li Ye narrowed his eyes slightly. This old man Li has great ambitions. His luck has turned into a dragon and a snake!
What a pity, old thing, today you will suffer the consequences! The Emperor's Soul can not only devour the scattered and ownerless luck, but also forcibly devour the luck of others!
However, there is also a big limitation. It can only devour people who are weaker than itself in strength and luck. If it devours a strong person, it will be counterattacked in an instant!
The power of luck is unpredictable and extremely mysterious, and Li Ye only has a partial understanding of it. But he knows that if his luck is damaged, it will inevitably reflect on himself.
He was reluctant to use this trick, as using it too often would harm the harmony of nature, but today, he really couldn't tolerate Yu Ling Shi Li.
The purple-gold dragon of luck directly burst out with an incomparably powerful devouring force and flew towards the sky above Yuling Shi Li.
Yuling Shi Li paused and saw that Li Ye was listening to the instructions calmly. He felt slightly satisfied. This boy is really respectful and docile!
Just as he was about to continue instilling his will into Li Ye, the Purple Gold Luck True Dragon had already launched an attack, biting the dragon snake that was wrapped around Yu Ling Shi Li's Luck Light Pillar. The dragon snake was caught off guard, and a large amount of Luck Power immediately flowed out from its wound.
Yu Ling Shi Li frowned slightly, feeling a little depressed. He pinched his eyebrows and thought secretly.
"It seems that I need to have a good rest tonight. I can't go looking for that little goblin again!"
It can only be said that Shi Li, the imperial spirit, is worthy of being the most prominent person in the spirit realm, and his luck is extremely huge. Even though a lot of it was dissipated by the attack of the purple gold dragon, Li was just a little depressed.
Although his dragon snake was huge, it was not under control and was not in a clear state of mind. It looked around with its eyes but could not find anything unusual, so it closed its eyes and continued to doze off. The purple-gold dragon swallowed the large amount of pure luck that overflowed from the dragon snake, and its head and horns became more majestic, its dragon scales shone brightly, and its pair of bright golden eyes sparkled with excitement.
"boom!"
The purple-gold true dragon moved again, its slender body was like an arrow that pierced the sky, and in an instant it hit the body of the dragon, causing countless snake scales to explode.
This time, the dragon snake felt pain and let out a thunderous roar towards the sky. A large amount of energy gushed out from the wound like a spring, spreading in all directions.
The Purple-Gold True Dragon, which was the first to be hit, used its devouring power to madly grab the luck like a robber. It did not have time to digest it and swallowed it in big gulps, with its abdomen visibly swollen.
The power of luck located in the center of the spiritual realm is extremely pure. It is a great tonic for the purple gold luck dragon!
As the lucky dragon snake suffered a severe blow, Li, as its master, naturally would not feel well!
"You humans are all..."
Yu Ling Shi Li's indignant words suddenly stopped and his body froze in place.
His face turned pale, and he covered his chest with his hands with difficulty. He slumped in the chair, breathing heavily and weakly.
Yu Ling Shi Li waved his hands with difficulty to drive away the strong man who wanted to come forward from the shadows. He slumped in the chair, staring at Li Ye with a gloomy look, unable to speak for a long time.
"Master Li, please don't get excited. I hope you will take care of your health! If there is nothing else, Haozhi will take his leave first and not disturb you from recuperating."
Li Ye expressed his concern at the right time, his words were earnest and his eyes were sincere.
Could it be that this bastard wants to harm me? Impossible! The formation in my courtyard has no reaction at all.
After a while, his expression finally eased a little, and he said to Li Ye impatiently:
"Go down, let Yize take you to the Spirit Realm Treasure House with my warrant."
"Humph, human!"
Yu Ling Shi Li watched Li Ye's figure gradually disappearing into the distance, his heart still filled with distrust.
Li Ye walked out of the pavilion, his expression calm as usual, and left the courtyard following the spirit envoy Yi Ze.
Li Ye could feel that several eyes were falling on him. As long as he showed the slightest sign of abnormality, these people would suddenly attack and take him down!
Not long after Li Ye left, a secret guard quietly appeared beside Yu Ling Shi Li and whispered a few words.
Yuling Shi Li finally felt relieved. His eyes were dim and his chest was still aching. He thought to himself, could it be that I really put too much effort on that little goblin? Never mind. After three consecutive days, my body is a little tired. Let me rest for three nights first!
……
The spirit envoy Yi Ze became more and more enthusiastic about Li Ye. After all, this person was someone that Lord Li valued. If he could successfully take charge of the Hall of Heroes in the future, would it not benefit me? Haha…
On the way to the Spirit Realm Treasure House, Li Ye did not forget to ask Yize indirectly to find out some information about the Spirit Realm.
The imperial envoy Yi Ze was not on guard and introduced him with a smile:
"General Li, you may not know that there are ten Yin Marshals in my Spirit Realm, all of whom are invincible high-level powerful warriors! With them around, how could any villain dare to come to my Spirit Realm and cause trouble?"
As he spoke, Yize laughed a few times, with a look of pride and honor on his face.
"Oh? Why didn't I see anyone today? Haozhi was still thinking about catching a glimpse of Yin Shuai." Li Ye pretended to look regretful and sighed.
"Hahaha, General Li, don't worry, let me explain in detail."
Yize hurriedly comforted him.
"The two yin generals, the Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced, are a hundred feet tall, brave and powerful, and are responsible for guarding the capital. The two lords, the Day-Wandering God and the Night-Wandering God, travel a thousand miles a day and patrol the four corners of the spiritual realm, while the two lords, the Black and White Impermanence, guard the Palace of Ignorance. All the monsters will not escape their eyes!"
"There are only six of them. Where are the other four Yin Shuai?" Li Ye frowned slightly. He vaguely remembered that only these six Yin Shuai appeared in the original novel. It seems that there are still hidden masters in the Spirit Realm!
"There are four more Yin Marshals, namely Leopard Tail, Wasp, Bird's Mouth, and Fish Gills. Among them, Wasp and Bird's Mouth hold important positions, which are confidential. Even I don't know! As for Leopard Tail and Fish Gills, General Li will be able to meet them soon."
As he spoke, the spirit envoy Yize winked at Li Ye with a smile.
Li Ye's mind moved slightly, could it be...
After passing through several heavily guarded archways, the two arrived at a very wide open space. At this time, on the open space, a huge and somewhat shockingly heavy and simple pavilion was standing on it. Li Ye's eyes slowly swept over the huge and simple pavilion, and finally stopped on a very old plaque outside the pavilion. Three characters that were somewhat blurred by the erosion of time were faintly revealed.
"Cangling Pavilion".
Before the two of them got close, two deep and majestic voices came from the front.
"Stop whoever comes!"
"Do you have a token?"
Li Ye's eyes narrowed slightly, and he saw two strong and burly figures falling from the sky above Cangling Pavilion at the same time.
One has a leopard head and a human body, with a thick and long leopard tail behind him like an iron whip, whistling in the wind;
One of them has a fish head and a human body, but his entire body is covered with dark blue fish scales and his appearance is ferocious.
It was none other than the two Yin Marshals, Leopard Tail and Fish Gills!
"You...you are a human, how dare you enter my spiritual realm without permission?!"
The leopard-tailed Yin Shuai looked at the two of them, then his eyes widened, staring at Li Ye, and a powerful and fierce aura burst out instantly, and in the next second he was going to give Li Ye a steel leopard tail! The leopard-tailed Yin Shuai was domineering, and his powerful spiritual power gathered on the hard and thick iron tail behind him. His fuzzy leopard face was fierce, and his eyes were full of murderous intent, looking at Li Ye grimly.
The imperial spirit envoy Yi Ze was frightened by his powerful aura, and trembled with fear, unable to speak.
Li Ye stood tall and straight, his expression calm, his eyes met his, unaffected at all.
"Calm down, old leopard!"
Yubi Yinshuai hurriedly spoke out to stop Baowei. Although his voice was powerful, it sounded slippery when listened carefully.
"Since this person is led by a spirit-controlling messenger, he must be here on orders. Don't be rude!"
Yuji Yinshuai was meticulous and calm, and he understood the whole story at a glance.
Yu Ji turned his gaze to the Spirit Envoy Yize, and seeing that he was terrified and panic-stricken, he couldn't help but frown.
"This Imperial Spirit Envoy is really..."
Well, Leopard Tail's aura is comparable to that of ancient ferocious beasts, so it's no wonder that he lost his composure like that.
"This human, on the other hand, has a majestic aura like a dragon or a tiger. No wonder he is qualified to come to the Spirit Realm!"
Leopard Tail thought to himself.
Li Ye placed his right hand on the shoulder of the Spirit Envoy Yi Ze, and a majestic aura circulated, eliminating all the pressure that Yi Ze was under.
This spirit envoy may be useful in the future, so why not make a good friend of him? It’s just a piece of cake.
Yi Ze felt his whole body lighten, and he breathed a long sigh of relief, looking at Li Ye with gratitude.
"You, the Spirit Master, are so hesitant. Do you have a token or not?!"
Leopard-tailed Yin Shuai restrained his aura and spoke loudly to Yize.
He was a little surprised:
"Can this human block my aura so easily?"
Yi Ze felt Li Ye standing beside him, and he felt inexplicably calmer. Not daring to delay, he took out Yu Ling Shi Li's token and handed it to Yu Ji Yin Shuai.
When the two Yin generals saw the token, they were a little shocked.
"It turns out that he is Yuling Shili's man? Doesn't he always hate humans?"
"This is General Li from the Hall of Heroes. He killed the Bashe and wiped out Dong Zhuo, making great contributions. I am following the order of Lord Li to bring General Li to the Soul Storage Pavilion to receive two treasures."
The imperial spirit envoy Yize said respectfully.
Yuzhi and Baowei looked at each other, and Yuzhi Yinshuai handed the token back to Yize, with a dim look in his eyes, and said to Li Ye in a deep voice:
"Human, you are not allowed to bring any items stored in space when entering the Soul Storage Pavilion. You only have one hour to do so. You must get out after taking two treasures within one hour."
"If you dare to take out more treasures, don't blame me for not warning you! Death penalty! Fish Gills and I will kill you on the spot!"
Leopard-tailed Yin Shuai stared coldly at Li Ye with his animal eyes, his tone icy and chilling.
After saying that, the two Yin Shuais attacked at the same time, shooting out two bright rays of light towards the space in front of the door of Cangling Pavilion.
"Crash!"
Suddenly, the space twisted violently, making a sound like a rushing water flow, and as the sound spread, the fluctuations in this space became more and more violent. Finally, a crack slowly opened up in the void, and vaguely, an astonishing spiritual power fluctuation surged out from the crack.
Li Ye glanced at Leopard Tail Yin Shuai and was too lazy to say any more nonsense. He then walked straight past Leopard Tail Yin Shuai without any pause and stepped directly into the crack.
A mere handsome guy like Yin, you dare to put yourself in my shoes?
Li Ye's provocative behavior also made Leopard Tail Yin Shuai's face a little gloomy. His pupils narrowed slightly, and a hint of cold anger flashed in his eyes.
Those who control the spirit Shi Li cannot move lightly.
One man and one leopard, each with their own thoughts. …
The moment Li Ye entered the crack in the void, a powerful torrent of spiritual power and a strong and dazzling light attacked him at the same time.
The divine fire from Ziwei Zhongtian burst out of his body and devoured all the spiritual energy. However, this strong light made Li Ye squint his eyes slightly. After a moment, he gradually adapted and looked around.
There are rows of square stone pillars in the Cangling Pavilion, and rows of tall wooden racks with an antique feel are placed inside. There are so many wooden racks that you can't see the end at a glance, and they are filled with treasures.
This Soul Storage Pavilion is a space of its own and is one of the most important treasure houses in the Spirit Realm. It houses countless rare treasures that the Soul Controlling Clan has obtained since they controlled the underworld!
The dazzling light came from all directions, appearing extremely gorgeous and dazzling. If an ordinary person walked in, he would probably stay here for an unknown period of time. Anything here, taken out at random, was worth a lot of money.
From this, we can see how rich this spiritual realm is. We don't worry about the Sea Dragon King having no treasures, but we can change it to we don't worry about the Imperial Spirit History having no treasures!
Li Ye picked up one at random, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth:
"Not allowed to bring storage items? Unfortunately, man proposes, God disposes. You can't figure it out even if you rack your brains. I have the Seven Star Dragon Spring. What can you do to me?!"
However, the treasures on the nearby wooden shelves were too bland compared to the spiritual energy emanating from the depths of the Soul Storage Pavilion.
Now that you are here, take whatever you see!
Collect treasures while moving deeper!
With a plan in mind, Li Ye did not stop and took away the treasure he had just held in his hand. Then he went straight into the depths, collecting the treasures on the way into the Seven Star Dragon Spring as he walked.
There are all kinds of spiritual weapons, all kinds of precious materials, all kinds of elixirs, and all kinds of spiritual skills.
Although these are of little help to him, they are very useful to his brothers.
"They follow me, so I can't treat them badly!"
Thinking of this, Li Ye collected more diligently.
This space was extremely large, and there were countless treasures along the way. Li Ye kept on going, collecting treasures along the way. It took him more than 30 minutes to reach the depths of the Soul Storage Pavilion.
In this deep area, the scene is completely different from the outside. Many lights outline warm light paths. At the end of each light path, there is a columnar stone platform covered by light. On the stone platform are suspended various rare magic weapons, medicinal materials, exercises, etc. If placed in the outside world, they are definitely top-notch treasures that countless spirit masters would break their heads and fight for!
The spiritual power here was so dense that even Li Ye was shocked. He looked around and saw a large amount of spiritual power rising from below, and a lot of it even condensed into a thin mist.
"It seems that there is a large formation below that continuously supplies spiritual energy to this space and these treasures."
Li Ye was amazed. This formation was even slightly better than Yuan Tiangang's Soul Gathering Formation.
There were hundreds of long light paths in front of him, and it was a problem as to how to choose. Li Ye only had one hour, and after choosing the treasures, he had to leave the Cangling Pavilion through the exit, which would take half an hour to go back and forth.
Once he chooses one, it means that he will basically have no chance of using other light paths, and he must make a choice.
If there is time on the way back, pick up one or two treasures from the nearest wooden shelf. Why should I leave them for the Spirit Realm?
I can only say that these imperial spirit masters are really cunning! Li Ye doesn't believe that it only takes them one hour to get the treasure.
Now is not the time to complain. "Huh", Li Ye exhaled lightly and decided to follow his own feelings and rush to a light path on the right. As for whether this treasure is what he wants, it depends on his luck and fate. Li Ye kept moving. After a few minutes, the light path in front of him suddenly expanded, and a huge spiritual light curtain appeared in front of Li Ye.
Li Ye stood in front of the light curtain, his eyes slightly focused, staring closely at the light curtain. Inside the light curtain, he saw four balls of light floating on top of the stone platforms.
Each ball of light emanates an extremely extraordinary spiritual light, filled with its own unique spirituality.
"These four pieces...are all very good!"
Li Ye's eyes swept over the four light balls one by one. If he wanted to obtain these treasures, he naturally had to blast open the spiritual power light curtain in front of him.
Without any delay, Li Ye's aura circulated around his body, his strong spiritual power surged, he clenched his right fist, surging purple flames wrapped around his fist, and he swung out with a punch, revealing a tremendous force.
"boom!"
A mere spiritual power light curtain shattered in an instant, melting into countless spiritual energy that spread out in the surroundings.
The light curtain shattered, and a powerful oppressive force emanated from the four spiritual treasures, as if it was going to push Li Ye away.
"interesting!"
Li Ye stood still, walking towards the three beams of light with steady steps.
As Li Ye got closer, the four spiritual treasures seemed to be aware of the crisis and began to buzz, with the pressure suddenly increasing.
However, Li Ye was delighted, and was more certain that these four treasures were extraordinary. His mind moved slightly, and the majestic sounds of dragon roars and tiger roars came from all around him, as if dragons and tigers were entrenched around him, immediately dispersing the oppressive force.
Silently recite the Ziwei Emperor Sutra and practice the Seven Star Technique.
Take all these four treasures away.
Never mind, there isn’t much time, just collect it first!
