Fate is immortal

The Di clan lives underground, and the cave is damp and dark. The best residence that can be prepared for the "God Envoy" is nothing more than a soft carpet on the stone bed and a piece of fluorite like a firefly hanging above the head.

Di Chuan and another Qingwei sent him to the "Cave Mansion", and they made proper arrangements for eating and living, but they kept silent all the time, guarding the door like a stone sculpture, seeming more of surveillance than respect.

Before leaving, A Yuan expected that the trip to the underground black market would not be smooth sailing. Under the mask of "Mo Xiangshi", he was no longer that reckless and ignorant boy. He even sat cross-legged in the cave to adjust his breath and waited for the first time. Naturally, he could hold his breath.

A few hours passed by, and the fluorescent light above his head gradually dimmed, so it might be night.Finally, Di Chuan's figure appeared in front of A Yuan, knelt on one knee and said, "My lord envoy, the patriarch invites you to have a secret meeting to discuss important matters."

"Oh." A Yuan responded lightly, as if he really had the air of an envoy.

"You patriarchs believe what I say?"

Di Chuan paused, and replied without raising his head: "From the first time I saw it, the patriarch knew that the villain who drove Hu Sha was definitely not an envoy of God, but he was only afraid that he would hurt the clansmen, so he just pretended to be a snake... It is precisely for this reason that the patriarch invited the envoy to discuss in secret..."

Having said that, A Yuan figured it out.The head of the Di tribe is mostly pretending to be crazy and foolish, trying to delay the time for all the clansmen scattered in the underground to rush back and jointly deal with this once-in-a-century turning point—or crisis.

Taoist Husha's threat was starkly before his eyes. A scheming patriarch was better than a lunatic.

"Okay, take me there."

A Yuan didn't say any more, silently followed Di Chuan for a long time in the dark cave, and finally entered a spacious and bright stone house.

Di Chuan retreated quietly, and facing A Yuan was only an old man with disheveled hair and wrinkled face. The old man is connected with the frantically screaming patriarch on the altar.

Patriarch Di also looked at A Yuan, with a pair of cloudy eyes, as if through a thick fog, it took a long time to finally see his face clearly.At that moment, the old man trembled and fell to his knees.

"My lord, the Di clan has been waiting for you for more than 200 years, and finally it's you..."

Although the newly-promoted envoy is known for being "calm", he still couldn't see this scene, he hurriedly helped Patriarch Youdi up, and said calmly: "I am originally a disciple of a cultivating sect outside the mountain, I don't know if I am your envoy , but if there is a way to get you out, I am willing to try my best.”

"Okay, okay!" Patriarch You Di hugged A Yuan tightly with his trembling hands, and his cloudy eyes showed a bit of excitement, "With the words of the Lord God Envoy, our clan will be saved!"

Seeing that Patriarch Di was so excited that he couldn't help himself, A Yuan was also surprised and said: "Old, old patriarch, do you mean that you have a way out of trouble?"

"Yes, yes! There has always been..."

The old patriarch burst into tears, hugged A Yuan like a wronged child, and talked about the past of Youdi clan...

…………

As Di Chuan said, the Di family originally lived in the East China Sea, and they were deceived by the Rain King "Chonghua" more than 200 years ago, so they migrated thousands of miles to the east of China.

During the reign of Yu Wang Chonghua, the national power of Yu Country was at its peak, and its culture and education flourished. He once recruited people from all corners of the world to integrate into Shenzhou, which was called "Naturalization".But Yu Country will not accept these foreign races in vain, and will often allocate some wild and dangerous lands to let them develop, thinking that they will be attached to them.Or offer certain conditions in exchange for land and residence.

The condition that Yu Chonghua offered to Youdi's family was to excavate this mountain.The name is to dig a tomb for him, but the secret agreement behind it is to find an underground palace hidden deep in the mountains...

There is a Di family who dug mountains and lived there. They are the most proficient in this way, but it took a full 30 years to paint before they finally dug a corner of the underground palace.However, that was more like opening the gates of hell...

The gate of the underground palace is extremely solid, no matter how hard it is dug, it will not be damaged at all, but it seems to have triggered some kind of restriction.The ground suddenly became elusive, and the tunnel that was clearly connected would turn into a thick rock wall in the blink of an eye, like an endless maze shrouded in thick fog.

There is no way to enter the front door, and there is nowhere to retreat. You Di's family broke ground day and night, but they still can't get rid of this dark nightmare.

What's more frightening is that they seem to have awakened a demon lurking underground.

The Youdi clan is born with a strong soul, so they are particularly sensitive to the power of the soul.A pulling force from the ground, like a huge gluttonous mouth that devours everything, sucks day and night, devouring all the souls in the mountain.Under the endless erosion of that soul-devouring power, You Di suffered a lot, and his lifespan decreased sharply. After a few years, nearly half of the clan members withered.

Seeing that the annihilation of the clan was imminent, patriarch Youdi at that time finally made up his mind to use taboo methods together with the six elders of the clan to sacrifice their souls and flesh, just to ask the gods for a solution to their difficulties.

But the Lord Rain God they believed in only gave them a vague response.It is said that one day a young man will appear underground, open the dusty underground palace, and save their family from the sea of ​​suffering.

However, the God of Rain showed mercy and left them with a glimmer of life—like a miracle, a strange spring gushed out in front of the underground palace.Some Di people call it "Zhiquan".

The water in Zhiquan is as clear as nothing, and as slippery as fat. As long as you soak your whole body in the spring water for a day, you can wash away the turbidity and impurities, and you will be completely reborn.Especially the soul can also be purified at the same time, and the mind will be stable from then on, no longer afraid of the soul-absorbing power of the underground demon.

It's a pity that once the water of the fat spring is polluted by mortal bodies, it will dry up for a year.Therefore, the Youdi family regarded it as a holy place and carefully sealed it up.Every six years, [-] youths with the best qualifications are selected to be baptized in the spring—the Qingwei guarding the Youdi clan came from this.

And the future foretold by the Rain God is to let the "god-envoy boy" soak in the fat spring for a day and a night, cleanse the mortal body, enlighten the spirit, and from then on ask every day to answer, knock on the ground and open up.Naturally, they can knock open the underground palace, unravel all the mysteries in the underground, and lead the Youdi clan to see the light of day again.

…………

Long Ye Weiyang sent away the young "God Envoy" with a calm face, layers of expression faded from his ravine cheeks, leaving only deep tiredness.

A pale complexioned, small and exquisite girl walked silently to the side of the old man from the dark place, as if she wanted to step forward and hug him, but hesitated to speak.

After a long time, the old man adjusted his breathing and said slowly: "Shuang'er, let them bring the next one over."

The girl twisted her tightly clenched hands, and couldn't help but said, "Grandpa, let's rest for a while. The night is still long..."

"No, this long dark night is too long. I have already, and I don't want to wait any longer..."
