Chapter 404 Netherworld’s Soil (2/2)

The Great Snow Mountain was the Dipamkara Temple, and vice versa. Shanjue should not be the only monk in the temple, but Shen Lian could not sense any other vital forces.

He knew there was a reason behind all this, but the clues were too few, making it difficult to decipher.

After getting the Lamp of Mind, Shanjue laughed and said, ”Because I have had them descend the mountain. You knew this mountain is both a Dipamkara Temple and a manifestation of a spiritual ban. What you definitely do not know is the function of this spiritual ban.”

Shen Lian knitted his brown slightly, and asked, ”What is suppressed underneath? To be able to defeat the remaining resentment left by the Light.”

Shanjue was surprised, it was no wonder this was a person of prominence, higher than many of the previous generation's connoisseur. There were certain things that Shanjue could not understand. It was just now that he had the Lamp of Mind at hand, he would not need to worry about the burning light of resentment sealed in the copper coffin, and his longtime wish would be fulfilled. Least to say, he was rather pleased with that. He said, ”What is at the bottom is none other than a square foot of netherworld's soil. The Mind Lamp and copper coffin acted as the entire mountain's core. Once it was removed, the Great Snow Mountain would be gone. When that happens, if there was no Mind Lamp to lead the path, one will forever be buried in the netherworld's soil, for eternity, never to return.”Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.

Just as he finished speaking, chunk by chunk the Great Snow Mountain melted at an unimaginable speed. The entire mountain had vanished as if it never existed before.

Shen Lian did not try to escape before this inevitably happened, nor had he ever intended to leave.

From beneath his sole, chilling vital forces gushed into his body, dirty and impure.

This was a dark and forlorn place, but it was not completely dark. A few ghost fires can be seen lingering in the surrounding vicinity, which allowed one to roughly be able to make out the terrain of the place. It was a boundless plain and the existence of any sentient beings of flesh and blood was obsolete. His hand that was burnt to ashes had started to slowly melt at a steady speed due to the invasion of the chilling vital forces.

The reason why Shanjue could not afford to get hurt was because if he was injured, the chilling vital forces would invade his body through the wound.

This was the power of the netherworld, limitless.

Shen Lian was not concerned. He was not even slightly surprised. Initially, his plan was to head to the Jintu Sect's commemoration temple, Lindong Temple, and borrow a square foot of pure soil to obtain the Buddhist sect ingenious Dao of earth element. The Jintu Sect was one of the eight sects of Buddhism. Although inferior to the four main Daoist sects, only by a small margin. Shen Lian was worried he would not defeat them by himself but it seems that possibility would not need to be considered as he would not be going.

The pure soil and netherworld soil were exact opposites, but for all intents and purposes, they were fundamentally the same.

He was not worried that he could no longer see where Shanjue was. He was only certain Shanjue's biggest mistake was snatching away the Mind Lamp. He smiled and helped Fang Yanying up, the magical sword emitted a faint multi-colored halo, purifying the netherworld soil around it and resisting the invasion of the power of the netherworld.

Shanjue carried the lamp, leisurely strolling on the filthy netherworld soil. The Mind Lamp contains invincible Dharma, and the ray of light emitted from it could withstand the power of the netherworld's soil. There were also no wounds on his body, even if it was invaded by the power of the netherworld, it would not have a significant effect on him.

The greatest danger of the Mind Lamp was the grudge within the copper coffin. He had always known the location of the lamp, but dared not take it. Shen Lian had helped him alleviate his worries, naturally, he would have obliged and accepted it.

Thinking of the copper coffin, he had a sudden realization. The coffin and the Mind Lamp are one, he took the Mind Lamp, why had the coffin not flew over?

He then noticed the light emitting from the Mind Lamp had turned into strings of light and drilled into his body, he could not help but cry, ”Mind Locking Curse.”
