The four hundred and fiftieth chapters explore the whereabouts
With a flash of light, three figures appeared in front of a majestic palace. There were two statues guarding the palace, and groups of ghost soldiers were patrolling around them.
The ghost general he saw before appeared again at this moment, standing in front of the black-faced scholar, and said in a deep voice: "City Lord, the Yama Palace is the important place of my ghost clan, how can I do this?"
The black-faced scholar slowly opened his paper fan and said two words, "It doesn't matter."
Seeing this, Chen Xuanli said, "If this is an important place for the ghost clan and outsiders are not allowed to enter, then I will say goodbye to my disciples."
The black-faced scholar hurriedly turned around, showed a flattering smile, and said: "Zongzhu Chen, what are you talking about? For a distinguished guest like you, this place is not an important place."
The black-faced scholar turned around and looked at the ghost general. He opened his paper fan and read a line of ghost language that no one could understand.
Chen Xuanli frowned slightly as he looked at this line of ghost language. Even though he was knowledgeable, he had never mastered the ghost language. I am afraid that no one in this world could be proficient in the ghost language.
After the ghost general finished reading, he bowed his head and led the guards away.
"Please." After saying this, the black-faced scholar took the lead in walking into the Yama Hall.
"Master, why do you want to check the book of life and death? What is the book of life and death?" Qi Kongming followed Chen Xuanli and asked in a low voice.
"The Book of Life and Death is an extremely special sacred instrument. It is not a man-made artifact, but a sacred instrument that has existed since the birth of the world."
"It records the life and death of all living beings in the Tao world, and even records the existence of many living beings."
Chen Xuanli patiently explained the functions of the Book of Life and Death. Qi Kongming was stunned when he heard this, and then asked again: "Is there any saint recorded in it?"
"Saints are immortal, and the Book of Life and Death will only record before they became saints and after they fell." Chen Xuanli spoke again.
At this time, a group of three people had already arrived at the Yama Hall. They saw that the Yama Hall looked like a court hall, with an extremely majestic statue of an unknown god sitting at the head. There were two statues of assistant officials on the left and right, both of whom seemed to be judges.
I saw the black-faced scholar respectfully worshiping the majestic unknown god, and then worshiping the two judges.
The two judge statues each hold a book in their hands.
"Zongzhu Chen, please name the person you want to investigate now." The black-faced scholar's face changed again, turning into one black and one half white. When he spoke, it was as if the two of them were talking at the same time.
"Apprentice, why don't you tell me the name of your missing brother and where he comes from." Chen Xuanli turned to Qi Kongming and said.
Qi Kongming was stunned when he heard this, it was actually for me!
Master...
"Master...why?" Qi Kongming opened his mouth to ask the reason, but he hesitated.
"It's really my mother-in-law. Isn't Master helping you?"
"With the help of Xuanwu Sect's power after so many years, we still haven't found your missing brother. It just so happens that when we come to the Ghost Clan this time, we can directly explore the whereabouts of your brother. It's better than finding a needle in a haystack."
"Although Xuanwu Sect is a holy sect, it is not that powerful in finding people, and you know this."
"Okay, tell me now, don't waste the opportunity."
Qi Kongming felt warm in his heart as he listened to his master's nagging.
"Since we are looking for relatives, bloodline is more accurate." Suddenly, the black and white scholar flashed in front of Qi Kongming, and lightly touched Qi Kongming's finger with a paper fan, taking away a drop of blood.
Qi Kongming was shocked and found that there were no wounds on his hands, but he had actually lost a drop of blood.
What a powerful method!
The black and white scholar's paper fan was suspended, holding Qi Kongming's essence and blood, and he made seals with his hands. In just a few seconds, the practice was completed.
I saw the statues of the two judges emitting wisps of divine radiance. Chen Xuanli looked at the divine radiance, but felt enlightened in his heart.
The divine light fell on the classics held by the judge, and the original stone classics instantly turned into paper books, and the pages were quickly turned over.
Ghost characters appeared one after another in front of the black and white scholar. The figure of the black and white scholar was soon covered by the ghost characters, making him invisible.
Both Chen Xuanli and Qi Kongming were patiently waiting for the results of the black and white scholar.
The ghost characters exude a strange aura, constantly rotating around the black and white scholar, resonating with each other, and seeming to be narrating something.
Suddenly, the black and white scholar's hand tore open the ghost text and stretched it out.
One by one, the ghost characters returned to the classics, the divine glow dissipated, and everything returned to its original state.
At this moment, the black and white scholar was in a miserable state, with several holes in the paper fan in his hand.
"Sect Master Chen, this time you have ruined a hundred years of my cultivation. I have suffered a big loss." The black and white scholar said miserably, but Chen Xuanli remained calm.
"Okay, City Lord, tell me the result and keep your promise. This jade plate belongs to your ghost clan." Chen Xuanli took out the jade plate again, and the black-and-white scholar transformed into a black-faced scholar.
"Don't be angry, Sect Leader Chen, and just listen to me."
"Your apprentice's brother is not dead." The black-faced scholar said it calmly, but Qi Kongming was shocked. Great, his brother is not yet...
"But, it is not within the realm of Tao!" the black-faced scholar continued.
"Where is that?" Qi Kongming asked nervously.
The black-faced scholar smiled brightly and said, "I don't know then. The Book of Life and Death is only useful within the Taoist realm, but it cannot be recorded outside the Taoist realm."
"I can only confirm that your brother is not dead."
After Qi Kongming listened, he felt a little disappointed, but a thick palm patted Qi Kongming's shoulder.
"Isn't it good to know the consequences of not dying?"
"When you reach the Holy Realm and travel through Chaos, you may be able to meet your brother then." Chen Xuanli said comfortingly.
When Qi Kongming heard this, he slowly clenched his fists.
My brother is still alive. Father, mother, don’t worry, I will definitely bring my brother back!
"Okay, Sect Leader Chen, bring me the things." The black-faced scholar stretched out his hand, seemingly impatient.
"Here." Chen Xuanli directly handed the jade plate to the black-faced scholar.
The black-faced scholar put away the jade plate extremely carefully, the black face turned into white face, and a door of light appeared in front of the three people.
Chen Xuanli pulled Qi Kongming, who was still in grief, into the light door, and the white-faced scholar followed.
The three of them appeared in the lobby of the City Lord's Mansion again.
Qi Kongming quickly regained his composure and stood behind Chen Xuanli.
"Don't worry, Sect Master Chen, our ghost clan will definitely keep our promise!" the white-faced scholar said swornly.
Hearing this, Chen Xuanli clasped his fists and said: "Then I would like to thank the city lord. I will go back to resume my life soon. Please also ask the city lord to send us two out of the city."
"Hahaha, easy to say, easy to say." As soon as the white-faced scholar finished speaking, Chen Xuanli and Qi Kongming disappeared.
The white-faced scholar took out the jade plate and said, "The human race deserves to be the human race. If I don't keep my promise, they can destroy this plate at any time."
"Forget it, just think of it as contributing to the Taoist world."
Qi Kongming and Chen Xuanli appeared in front of the Gate of Hell again, and it was only noon.
"Master, this trip went so smoothly."
"Thank you, Master, for working so hard on my affairs." Qi Kongming said with great sincerity.
"Okay, you kid must repay Master well in the future, otherwise I will have done all this in vain." Chen Xuanli said nonchalantly.
Qi Kongming, however, kept this kindness in his heart.
Suddenly, the sect leader's token on Chen Xuanli's waist trembled.
Chen Xuanli picked up the token and looked at it, his expression changed.
"Boy, come with me to Dragon Burial City."
"Why Master?"
"The Demon Clan of Dragon Tomb is about to attack Dragon Burial City, and Dragon Burial City is in danger!"
