Black Myth: Journey to the West – Simulate Becoming Immortal! - Chapter 233

c232 Zhenwu Emperor, the four seas are dry!

Chen Xi and Prince Moang smiled at each other, then went inside and sat down for the banquet.

Miss Ji was also invited by Prince Moang, and she did not lose her manners at all.

As soon as they sat down, Miss Ji was attracted by the delicious food on the table, and she could not stop swallowing her saliva.

She had not had a good meal for a long time since she came to the lower world.

On weekdays, she either ate some small insects or some wild vegetables, which was nothing compared to the delicacies here.

“Since you two have come to Xiaolong’s water palace, you are honored guests.”

“Don’t be restrained and polite, just eat freely.”

After Prince Moang finished speaking, Miss Ji was not polite and started to eat heartily.

Chen Xi shook his head helplessly, always feeling that Miss Ji was becoming more and more like a toad.

“Saint monk, Xiaolong will punish himself with three cups, please forgive Xiaolong’s abruptness just now.”

Prince Moang raised the wine cup, raised his head and drank three cups in a row, quite refreshing.

“Prince, what are you talking about? It’s just a competition. Why do you need to confess?”

“How can I be such a petty person?”

Although Chen Xi called himself a poor monk, he had no taboos about drinking and eating meat.

He had already determined that the delicacies on the table were all normal, so he had no scruples.

At that moment, Chen Xi also poured three cups of wine like Prince Moang.

After the three cups of wine, the atmosphere became much more lively.

Each of them looked like they had met too late, as if they wanted to become sworn brothers on the spot, not asking to be born on the same day of the same month of the same year, but to die on the same day of the same month of the same year.

Miss Ji enjoyed this scene so much that even the fruits in her mouth became much sweeter.

Soon, after three rounds of wine…

Chen Xi put down the wine cup and started to talk about business.

“I never thought I would meet Prince Moang in the Black Water River.”

“As far as I know, isn’t Prince Moang the crown prince of the West Sea?”

“Why did you end up here and come to the Black Water River to be a little dragon king?”

Chen Xi was full of curiosity when he spoke, wanting to learn about the Four Seas Dragon Clan.

Unexpectedly, Prince Moang sighed and then looked bitter when he heard this.

“Saint monk, you don’t know…”

“Little Dragon also wants to stay in the West Sea, rule the West Sea Dragon Clan, and be a big prince?”

“But now… the four seas are dry, and Little Dragon has no home.”

When these words came out, both Chen Xi and Miss Ji were shocked!

What the hell?

The four seas are dry?

Chen Xi looked puzzled, and even thought he had heard it wrong.

If he said that any river, or even the four rivers were dry, he would not be so surprised.

But if the four seas were dry, it would be horrifying, even unimaginable!

What are the four seas?

That is the largest ocean in the world!

As the saying goes, there are four seas within the eight wildernesses, and there are nine states within the four seas.

The four continents are all within the four seas, from which we can see how vast the four seas are.

Even many of the world’s immortals’ temples are above the four seas.

Among them, the South China Sea Purple Bamboo Forest of Guanyin Bodhisattva is the most well-known.

If the four seas are dry, what about these immortals’ temples?

Chen Xi couldn’t imagine it, and felt it was absurd.

However, Prince Moang was obviously not joking.

“In the past, the world was in a catastrophe, and demons and monsters were rampant.”

“There was no news from the gods and Buddhas, and strange phenomena occurred in the four seas.”

“For some unknown reason, a bottomless pit appeared in the four seas, named Guixu.”

“The water from the four seas kept pouring into it, and countless aquatic creatures were drawn into Guixu, causing great suffering to all living beings.”

“At that time, Xiaolong happened to be outside, searching for the traces of the nine-headed insect, and luckily escaped.”

“When Xiaolong returned to the four seas, he saw… the four seas were dry and there were countless corpses lying on the ground. The horrifying scene.”

When Prince Moang said this, his eyes were full of bloodshot, and he looked quite pupil-like.

He panted, crushed the wine cup, turned his head and looked at Chen Xi.

“Could the holy monk imagine that the endless seabed was full of aquatic corpses and dragon bones?”

Prince Moang was emotional and obviously not in a good state.

But this is normal. After all, in this demon-ridden world, who can survive to this day and become a great demon?

Often, the more normal a guy seems on weekdays, the craziest he is!

“The four seas are dry, and there are tens of thousands of corpses…”

Chen Xi muttered to himself. Just talking about this paragraph made people’s backs cold.

What a spectacular, tragic, and terrifying scene this must be?

He couldn’t imagine it, and there was no way to imagine it.

It would be strange if Prince Moang didn’t go crazy after witnessing such a scene with his own eyes.

“Huh…”

“Sorry, Saint Monk, Xiaolong can’t help himself and lose his composure…”

Prince Moang took a deep breath, and the expression on his face gradually became normal.

If it weren’t for what happened just now, no one would have thought that Prince Moang was the madman just now.

Miss Ji was so scared that she shrank her head, dared not say a word, was as silent as a cicada, and even didn’t eat the delicacies on the table. It is conceivable how terrifying Prince Moang was just now. Even the well-informed Miss Ji was frightened like this.

However, Chen Xi did not take it seriously. After all, he was much crazier than Prince Moang before.

Even when he went crazy, he was afraid of himself!

In the whole world, only the Toad Spirit could stand his madness.

“It’s okay…”

“I am curious about why Prince Moang chose to come to the Black Water River?”

Chen Xi tried to calm down the shocking news about the four seas being dried up, and then continued to ask questions.

Prince Moang was much more normal this time. He shook off the wine stains on his hands and spoke.

“After the four seas dried up, Xiaolong lost his home.”

“Xiaolong’s father and uncles, where did they go?”

“Perhaps they died in Guixu, just like the gods and Buddhas in the sky, they lost contact and disappeared without a trace.”

“Xiaolong had nowhere to go, so he traveled around the four continents with the idea of ​​looking for the remaining dragons.”

“By chance, I came to the Black Water River here.”

“The Black Water River was flooded at that time, and there was great terror.”

“Xiaolong explored and found that the strange phenomenon here was related to the Great Emperor Zhenwu…”

When Prince Moang said this, his voice paused, and then he told Chen Xi this secret without reservation.

When Chen Xi first heard it, his face did not change, until later, as he listened more and more, his face gradually became more solemn.

It turned out that, as the Lion Demon said, the Black Water River did hide the mystery of creation left by the Great Emperor Zhenwu.

The so-called mystery of creation has to start with the story of Zhenwu Emperor.

It is said that before Zhenwu Emperor attained enlightenment, he was troubled day and night because he could not practice fasting, and could not really ascend to become an immortal.

If people want to become immortals, they must first stop eating grains.

As the saying goes, those who eat meat are brave and fierce, those who eat grains are wise and clever, those who eat air are gods and have longevity, and those who do not eat are immortal and gods.

If people eat grains, their stomachs will accumulate into feces, produce foul air, and hinder their immortality.

Zhenwu Emperor was troubled by it, so he thought hard every day and sought a way to fast.

One day, Zhenwu Emperor wanted to stop eating grains and stop eating.

However, his stomach was very hungry and could not stop making noises, which made Zhenwu Emperor upset.

So, he cut open his stomach and dug out his own intestines, blood and flesh with his own hands. With the great perseverance of wanting to become an immortal, he succeeded in fasting.

At this point, the Great Emperor Zhenwu ascended to heaven and became a fairy.

The intestines, stomachs, blood and flesh he dug out were stained with the spirit of immortality, and became spiritual, turning into the two generals of turtle and snake, that is, Xuanwu.

As for the Black Water River, it was actually the place where the Great Emperor Zhenwu had his stomach cut open and his intestines and stomach removed.

When he ascended to immortality, his intestines and stomach turned into turtles and snakes, and the remaining blood and flesh fell here.

The river water instantly turned into black water, and the Black Water River got its name from this.

However, for so many years, there has been no abnormality in the Black Water River.

Everyone thought that this was just a legend.

Even the little crocodile who occupied this place during the journey to the west could not see anything special.

And there was only one person who knew the mystery of creation left by the Great Emperor Zhenwu, and it was not groundless, and this person was the river god of the Black Water River!

When the little crocodile came to the Black Water River in the past, it was not a forced occupation of the water palace.

The little crocodile was ordered by the Dragon King of the West Sea to live in the Black Water River to cultivate his character and wait for his fame to be called.

The four seas dragon clan has the right to rule the waters of the world. In other words, the little crocodile is the legitimate master of the Black Water River.

The river god of the Black Water River should have been led elsewhere, but because he was unwilling to give up the mysterious destiny left by the Great Emperor Zhenwu, he forced his daughter to marry the little crocodile.

He claimed to the outside world that it was the little crocodile who occupied his daughter and robbed his water palace.

All of this was just for the so-called mysterious destiny.

As for what happened later, there is no need to say more.

The river god of the Black Water River cleverly borrowed the power of the destiny man to force the little crocodile to move away and regain the water palace.

Later, the world was in great calamity, and demons and monsters were in the world.

The flesh and blood left by the Great Emperor Zhenwu finally emerged from the water, emitting strange phenomena.

At that time, the Black Water River began to flood.

The river god of the Black Water River did not consider how to govern, but instead became greedy and ate the flesh and blood of the Great Emperor Zhenwu!

Since then, the strange phenomena of the Black Water River have become more and more terrifying, and all the little monsters passing by here have died tragically in the river.

Until Prince Moang passed by here, he knew the mystery and had a good fight with the river god of the Black Water River.

Perhaps the Black Water River God had only eaten the flesh and blood of Zhenwu not long ago, and it has not yet formed a climate.

The highly skilled Prince Moang suppressed the Black Water River God under the water palace as soon as he made a move.

However, as time went by, the Black Water River God continued to merge that piece of flesh and blood.

Until now, it has grown to a very terrifying level!

Prince Moang, who once could suppress the river god with one hand, now has to guard the water palace all the time to suppress the Black Water River God…

After listening to the story told by Prince Moang, Chen Xi was overwhelmed with emotions.

No wonder Prince Moang did not show up when the demon soldiers of Chechi Kingdom attacked the Black Water River. Instead, Chen Xi fought with him after entering the water…

I didn’t expect that the so-called mystery of creation was the flesh and blood of the Great Emperor Zhenwu.

I didn’t expect that there was such a secret between the little crocodile and the Black Water River God.

“So, the person who went to the pilgrimage with the destiny actually misunderstood the little crocodile?”
