Chapter 202 The Red-Haired Monster in Ksitigarbha's Small World

"Ah wu..."

A red whirlwind was raging before our eyes, and the sounds of ghosts wailing and wolves howling filled the entire world.

The dark red earth seemed to be soaked in blood.

"Crackle!" Tiny bolts of lightning suddenly emerged from the void from time to time, striking the ground, flashing a scarlet light.

Faint red hair was blown out from under the ground by the thunder, then floated in the air again, turning into a red whirlwind that swept across the sky.

This whole scene took place inside the light gate that Li Zhi and Duan De stepped into.

In this small world of only a few dozen miles in radius, mountains and rivers collapsed, spiritual energy was thin, vegetation had disappeared, and the world was filled with a strong sense of desolation.

"What the hell is this place?" Li Zhi looked at the world in front of him and asked his soul-searching question.

If Li Zhi had not been standing behind Duan De, protected by the black light emitted from the lid of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Jar, he didn't know how many seconds he could stay in this world.

The whirlwind transformed by the red-haired man is terrifying.

After seeing this scene, Duan De also showed a pained look, muttering: "What a loss, what a loss, this time it's a big loss. This is not the Ksitigarbha Small World, it's clearly the Demon World that has been sealed away by someone."

Li Zhi felt goose bumps all over his body when he saw those red-haired whirlwinds, and quickly said, "Uncle Taoist priest, let's get out of this damn place as soon as possible, shall we?"

Duan De gnashed his teeth and said, "No, now that I'm here, I won't return empty-handed. I want to see how weird this place is. I don't believe that a peerless geomancer would not leave any magical items behind."

Then, Duan De walked towards the center of the small world.

There is a collapsed low mountain and some ruins of buildings. I think it should have been the residence of the geomancer in the past.

But before they got close to the collapsed hill, they discovered some strange ghost soldiers with red hair and wearing old armor, and they exuded a terrifying and evil aura.

Duan De directly offered a drop of sacred blood and burned all the evil soldiers into ashes.

Seeing the red whirlwind getting stronger and stronger, Duan De gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it, let's fight."

Afterwards, he poured half a bottle of holy blood into the broken bowl above his head and directly used the holy blood to activate the lid of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Jar in the bowl. A black light came like a big broom covering the sky and the sun, directly sweeping the entire small world.

All the red-haired whirlwinds were suppressed, and all the red-haired people hid underground.

This small world of only a few dozen miles in radius became quiet in an instant.

Then, Duan De said to Li Zhi, "This suppressive force can only last for one stick of incense. Let's split up and look for treasures. Remember not to dig for things on the ground casually. Even if you find a divine object, you have to wait until I go over and use the power of the Heaven Devouring Demon Pot to sweep it away before you can dig."

Li Zhi nodded and said, "Then let's meet up at the low mountain."

Afterwards, Li Zhi and Duan De started searching along the edge of the small world respectively.

It was empty, without any treasure.

Instead, Li Zhi discovered completely decayed fragments of weapons in many places. The materials used were very solid, as if they had been shattered by violence in the past, and the essence inside had been completely lost.

Finally, Duan De and Li Zhi met in front of the collapsed hill.

"It seems that this place has experienced a terrible war and has been destroyed." Li Zhi told Duan De what he had seen and heard.

Duan De said: "Not only was there a war, but there was also a heavenly calamity. The terrifying heavenly calamity was the culprit that caused all of this. This small world should have been more than a thousand miles in area back then, and it was because of the heavenly calamity that this small world collapsed to its current state. Moreover, this small world is still collapsing. Perhaps in a few tens of thousands of years, it will completely collapse, and everything inside it will be annihilated by the destructive force of the world's collapse."

Li Zhi said: "The reason why this small world was sealed back then was because they were waiting for the day when it would collapse on its own?"

Duan De said: "It is very likely."

Afterwards, the two of them walked around the collapsed building and did not find any traces of Dao patterns, as if they had been completely wiped out by what happened that year.

Li Zhi suddenly pointed to a pile of half-buried stones and said, "Master, look, are those stones the divine source stone skins?"

Duan De used the Heaven-Devouring Demon Pot to emit a divine light, and dug all the stones out of the earth. They were all divine stone skins.

There is even half a piece of stone clothing made from the sacrifice of divine stone skin.

It seemed that the incident happened in such a hurry that there was not enough time to completely refine the stone clothes into shape.

After carefully studying the divine source stone skins, Duan De said, "There is a smell of holy objects on these divine source stone skins. The divine source within the stone skins must have sealed a fairy treasure."

Duan De put away the half piece of stone clothing, and the two continued to explore the ruins.

"Why is there no trace of the Book of Earth? Didn't You Zilong say that the Book of Earth was sealed in this small world?" After going around all the places, Li Zhi said in surprise.

After observing the surrounding terrain, Duan De took out a dragon-docking rod.

After searching for a long time, Duan De stopped under a big tree that had been dead for who knows how many tens of thousands of years.

"Sure enough, there is a dragon vein hidden under the earth." Duan De then drew a circle on the ground with his foot and said to Li Zhi, "Little Li Zhi, dig down in the circle I drew. The good stuff is sealed underground."

Li Zhi was a little worried and asked, "Uncle Taoist priest, if you dig down here, aren't you afraid of digging out those scary red hairs?"

Duan De said: "Don't worry, the place I chose is where the dragon's mouth is. Those strange forces cannot erode it."

Sure enough, after Li Zhi dug down a few shovels, he did not find any red hair in the soil here.

Then, under Duan De's command, he dug a tunnel leading to the earth vein.

On the way, Li Zhi could vaguely see mysterious red hairs mixed in the mud on the tunnel wall.

The closer he got to the earth veins, the more careful Li Zhi became.

Finally, they dug through the earth veins and discovered an underground space.

The ground of the underground space was almost covered with a layer of mysterious red hair.

In the center of the underground space, there stands a stone pillar that is nine zhang high and about ten zhang in diameter.

There are also many mysterious red hairs growing on the stone pillars.

It seemed as if the red hairs on the ground were all falling from the stone pillars.

At the top of the stone pillar, there is a yellow mud coffin.

Duan De looked at the yellow mud coffin with shining eyes, revealing a hint of excitement, and said: "The coffin is made of Nine Heavens Xirang. My goodness, there really is such a magical thing as Xirang in the world. I, the Taoist, am going to make a fortune this time."

Li Zhi pointed at the stone pillar and asked, "Red hair has grown on this stone pillar. Is it because the remains of the geomancer from that year are sealed inside the stone pillar?"

Duan De temporarily suppressed his excitement, and then observed the stone pillar under the yellow mud coffin, and said: "Strange, why do I feel that the stone pillar seems to be embedded with evil soul stones?"

"What is the Evil Soul Stone?" It was the first time that Li Zhi heard of the Evil Soul Stone.

Duan De explained: "A magic stone that can devour souls. It was born from the core of a long-extinct magic tree. It is harmful to cultivation and has no benefit. If a corpse allows the evil soul stone to devour the remaining soul fragments, the corpse will gradually become an evil spirit controlled by the magic stone."

Li Zhi pondered for a moment and said, "Could it be that the peerless geomancer back then used the method of fighting evil with evil to dissolve the power of the curse?"

Duan De said: "Let me see the specific scene in the coffin."

Afterwards, Duan De used the secret burial technique, lifted a corner of the coffin, and saw the scene inside the coffin.

Li Zhi also used this opportunity to see clearly what was inside the coffin.

A corpse covered with red hair lay quietly inside, but the strange thing was that he seemed to have alopecia areata, and the red hair did not completely cover his entire body, and some places showed their original appearance.

The largest area without red hair is at the position of his heart. An area as big as a bowl has no mysterious red hair growing on it.

But after observing for a while, Li Zhi discovered that it was not alopecia areata, but the red hair in that area had been plucked out.

And on the head of the red-haired monster, there was a dark green talisman.

After seeing the appearance of the talisman clearly, Duan De exclaimed in amazement, "The talisman for suppressing corpses is actually the talisman for suppressing corpses created by Lingbao Tianzun. It is said that the talisman that was lost in the ancient times has actually been passed down."

Soon, Duan De said, "It seems that the rumors that this geomancer was on good terms with the third-generation Yuan Tianshi are true. He can even find a magical talisman like the Corpse Suppression Talisman."

Hearing Duan De's sigh, Li Zhi felt a little strange.

It is rumored that Lingbao Tianzun suppressed the corpse disaster. Then, could the source of the corpse disaster that occurred in the mythological period be the thing that Duan De created when he was Dujie Tianzun in order to study the reincarnation seal?
Shaking off the distracting thoughts in his mind, Li Zhi asked, "What should we do next? Should we climb up to the stone platform to take a closer look? Maybe the book of the earth is inside the coffin."

Duan De said, "Let me try to see if I can use the Heaven Devouring Demon Pot to refine this red-haired monster into ashes. If we keep him, he will only bring disaster to the world."

Then, the two of them flew onto the stone platform and observed the yellow mud coffin from close range.

Duan De said: "No, this yellow mud coffin is only coated with a thin layer of Nine Heavens Xirang. It is not a divine coffin made entirely of Xirang."

Li Zhi looked at the bottom of the mud coffin and found that the bottom did not seem to be connected to the coffin body. There was a very small gap. The red hair on the red-haired monster's body sank into the stone pillar below through the gap.

He also discovered that there seemed to be many small words engraved on the base where the red-haired monster was lying.

Li Zhi told Duan De about his discovery.

Duan De said excitedly: "The Book from the Earth, this base must be the yellow mud board that records the Book from the Earth."

Li Zhi said, "But the red-haired monster is lying on top. How can we get it out?" Duan De said, "Then you can see what I can do."

Afterwards, Li Zhi stepped aside to watch Duan De's performance.

Duan De used a spell to turn the entire mud coffin half a circle, so that the coffin lid was at the bottom and the bottom was at the top.

Then Duan De lifted the mud board and boasted to Li Zhi: "How is my method? Is it okay?"

"show!"

Li Zhi didn't expect Duan De to act like this, and he gave him a thumbs up.

Then, the two began to read the text on the clay tablet, and it turned out to be a profound and mysterious book.

The material of the clay tablet also exceeded their imagination. It was actually made entirely of the Nine Heavens Xirang, and there seemed to be several mysterious powers contained in the clay tablet.

There is terrifying power of thunder, extreme death, a vigorous vitality, and even a strong power of curse.

Jiutian Xirang is indeed a divine object that can accommodate everything.

It is truly astonishing that such extremely conflicting forces can be contained together intactly without showing any signs of explosion.

But for Li Zhi and Duan De, things were not so good.

If they don't erase the alien divine power inside, they will not be able to use it.

Finally, Li Zhi suggested: "Uncle Taoist priest, why don't we scrape off the side with the words from the clay tablet, and use the extreme power of the Heaven Devouring Demon Jar lid to smelt the rest?"

Duan De nodded and said, "What you said is also a method. I will try it."

Afterwards, Duan De made a sword gesture and planned to split the clay tablet into two pieces.

However, the sword energy he released was completely absorbed by the clay tablet and was unable to damage the tablet at all.

"You try it." After Duan De tried unsuccessfully, he asked Li Zhi to go and handle it.

After thinking for a moment, Li Zhi took out a pot of Taiyin real water, and then sprayed the real water evenly on the side of the clay tablet with the words. The clay tablet, which absorbed the power of Taiyin, instantly became more solid.

Then, Li Zhi tried to activate the rune of the Transformation Palm in his mind, and then compressed the power of Transformation into a thin line and chopped it directly off the mud slab.

"Snap!" The clay tablet was directly split into two pieces.

One clay tablet with words on it was one-third as thick as the original one, while the other tablet had no words on it but was two-thirds as thick as the original one.

Afterwards, Li Zhi split the thick clay tablet into two pieces in the middle.

Duan De saw this and patted Li Zhi on the shoulder and said, "Good boy, you have this skill. It really opened my eyes."

"Uncle Taoist priest, can these two clay tablets be melted into innate spiritual materials again?" Li Zhi asked.

Duan De said, "Don't worry, there are no traces of Dao patterns on these two clay tablets, so a little bit of strange power won't be a problem for me."

Afterwards, Duan De used the lid of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Jar to dissolve the strange power on the two mud tablets on the spot, even the curse power on the mud tablets was no exception.

In the end, each of them harvested a piece of clay as big as a face.

The Nine Heavens Xirang can be used to forge the ultimate imperial weapon. The raw material for the legendary Nuwa Emperor's ultimate imperial weapon, Nuwa Dao Stone, is the Nine Heavens Xirang.

A face-sized Xirang mud embryo is enough to refine a good ultimate magic weapon embryo.

"boom!"

At this moment, an arm covered with red hair suddenly stretched out from the yellow mud coffin.

A palm hit Duan De on the back, blasting him directly into the stone wall of the underground space.

The red-haired monster's other hand had already grabbed the wall of the coffin, trying to climb out of the coffin.

Upon seeing this, Li Zhi immediately released a sword energy that cut through the red-haired monster's arm. At the same time, he retreated in the direction of the tunnel.

"Woooo..."

However, Li Zhi's sword energy not only failed to hurt the red-haired monster, but instead aroused a strange whimpering sound.

In an instant, a mysterious red-haired whirlwind blew up in the underground space.

The red hairs that fell on the ground grew back onto the red-haired monster's body like birds returning to their nests.

The red-haired monster also began to grow taller and bigger.

Originally less than two meters tall, with the return of the red-haired man, he suddenly became a three-meter-tall monster.

The ten fingers grew nails that were about a foot long and as sharp as blades.

A strange red light appeared in those dark eyes, as if a peerless demon had suddenly revived.

"Damn it, you dare to attack me, go to hell."

Duan De squeezed out from the mountain wall, and with an angry face, he offered half a bottle of the God King's Holy Blood to the red-haired monster, hoping to kill the red-haired monster directly.

However, the red-haired monster seemed to be extremely powerful when he was alive, and he was not afraid of the purifying power contained in the holy blood of the gods.

Instead, the aura became even more violent.

"Uncle Taoist priest, use your own blood." At this moment, Li Zhi, who had retreated into the tunnel, shouted at Duan De.

Then, Duan De subconsciously turned the blood flowing from the corner of his mouth into a blood sword and slashed towards the red-haired monster.

At first, the red-haired monster didn't seem to take Duan De's blood sword seriously.

But when the blood sword was really inserted into the red-haired monster, the red-haired monster immediately let out a fearful roar, as if it had met its greatest nemesis in the world.

With a roar, the red-haired monster directly broke through the earth, broke through the rock layer above the cave, and rushed directly out.

Duan De and Li Zhi were both stunned after seeing this scene.

There was endless doubt in Duan De's eyes, while there was deep shock in Li Zhi's eyes.

"Uncle Taoist priest, we must kill him, otherwise there will be endless troubles." Then Li Zhi shouted to Duan De.

After a brief moment of unconsciousness, Duan De waved his hand and collected the yellow mud coffin and the corpse-suppressing talisman that fell off the red-haired monster's forehead.

Afterwards, the two of them controlled the lid of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Jar and flew out from the big hole that the red-haired monster had made.

"Boom!"

Endless red and blood-red lightning continuously struck the red-haired monster in the sky, and there were also countless mysterious lightning-inducing patterns flashing between heaven and earth.

It seemed that in order to prevent this day from coming, they had made many backup plans during their lifetime.

"Oh no, the small world collapsed. The thunder power drawn by these lightning talismans is not powerful enough to kill it." Duan De's face turned ugly.

Li Zhi looked at the blood-red lightning that lacked the pure Yang power, and said to Duan De: "Uncle Taoist, at this critical moment, you have to save my life."

Then he rushed towards the red-haired monster in the sky that was fighting against Thunder.

"Xiao Li Zhi, what are you going to do?" Duan De was shocked and shouted at him.

"Supreme Thunder Pool, please show yourself to me."

By the time Li Zhi arrived beside the red-haired monster, his cultivation had already broken through to the eighth level of the Immortal Realm, and he released all of his aura, bringing about a heavenly calamity.

"boom!"

The terrifying divine thunder descended instantly, causing the entire small world to begin shaking.

Duan De saw this and yelled, "Crazy, really crazy."

Afterwards, he used the Heaven-Deceiving Dao Pattern to cut off the connection between himself and the heaven and earth.

With Duan De's concern, Li Zhi directly used his magic to control the heavenly thunder pool and put the powerful red-haired monster into the thunder pool.

The terrifying thunder pool directly turned the red-haired monster into ashes.

Li Zhi's heavenly tribulation instantly increased by more than ten times.

Under the impact of such terrifying heavenly thunder, his body began to explode.

Seeing that this small world was about to collapse under the bombardment of the heavenly calamity, Duan De gritted his teeth and directly used his magic to pierce through the portal of the small world.

Then, Li Zhi, who had just used the Phoenix Tribulation Regeneration Technique to condense his physical body, was thrown out of the small world, leaving him to endure the tribulation outside.

"Xiao Li Zhi, you'll have to fend for yourself from now on."
