Chapter 3010: Crossing

....

Translator: Legge

There were a total of six supreme flames in the Martial Dao Purgatory.

Among them, the Nether Ghost Fire, Tribulation Fire, Dragon Phoenix Flame, Hellfire and Martial Spirit Fire were clearly suppressed after arriving at the Nether River.

Only the Red Lotus Karmic Fire was not affected much.

Furthermore, earlier on, the Red Lotus Karmic Fire in the Martial Dao Purgatory deviated once more. The fire tilted, as though it felt a certain attraction.

More than a hundred years ago, such a situation happened when the Martial Dao Prime Body descended into the Hell World and released the Red Lotus Karmic Fire.

That mysterious guidance force had appeared again!

The Martial Dao Prime Body frowned slightly.

The direction of this guidance force was neither in the direction or against the current of the Nether River. Instead, it was horizontally across the Nether River.

The Martial Dao Prime Body fell into deep thought and did not act rashly.

The direction horizontal to the Nether River made him even more uneasy!

A moment later, the Martial Dao Prime Body did not choose to cross the Nether River. Instead, he floated in the Nether River and no longer controlled his body As he used the Heaven and Earth Furnace to refine the power of the Nether River, he flowed downstream.

The Martial Dao Prime Body fell into a strange state and entered seclusion in the Nether River to divine and perfect his Dharmic Dao.

The source of the Nine Springs of Hell was the Nether River.

The Martial Dao Prime Body’s entire body was immersed in the Nether River and could help him better understand the profundities of the Taboo Mystic Classic and transform it into his own strength!

Time flew.

The Martial Dao Prime Body had been floating in the Nether River for a hundred years!

In the past hundred years, he had only awakened four times in seclusion.

Every time he woke up, it was because his perception in the Nether River had changed!

The first time he woke up, the Martial Dao Prime Body suddenly sensed a powerful fiend might and Combat Intent horizontally in the Nether River. It was filled with torrential hatred and violent anger!

He had felt that aura from the Asura race before.

At the same time, the Nether River split off a tributary and surged in that direction.

“Asura World?”

The Martial Dao Prime Body’s heart skipped a beat as he thought of a possibility.

Back then, he had a guess in his conversation with Die Yue.

There was a high chance that the Nether River had seven tributaries that led to the Six Paths and the Netherworld!

That was because Die Yue had once gone against the current of the torrential waterfalls in the Beast World to enter the Nether River before falling into the Netherworld.

The source of the Nine Springs of the Hell World was also the Nether River. Similarly, the source of the River of Life of the Ghost World was also the Nether River.

NOW that he sensed a tributary of the Nether River surging in another direction, the Martial Dao Prime Body thought of the Asura World immediately!

The Martial Dao Prime Body continued to drift in the Nether River and cultivated in seclusion.

The second time he woke up, the Martial Dao Prime Body sensed a dark, ferocious and violent aura on the side of the Nether River. It was familiar.

Back then, he encountered a white pheasant in the starry skies and fell into an ignorant world where right and wrong were reversed. That was the aura emitted by all the living beings around him!

The Beast World!

As he had expected, the Nether River split into another tributary and surged in the direction of the Beast World.

The Martial Dao Prime Body continued down the river.

The third time he woke up, the Martial Dao Prime Body felt a thick aura of death.

The strange thing was that the aura of death this time round came from above the Nether River!

Indeed, the Nether River split into a tributary. However, it soared up and surged into the skies!

It was a true reverse flow of the water.

Such a strange scene was probably only possible in the Nether River.

The Martial Dao Prime Body looked up.

If he was not wrong, there was a high chance that the tributary was surging towards the Netherworld above the Nether River!

So, the Netherworld was shrouded above the Nether River?

The existence of the Netherworld was indeed a little special compared to the Six Paths.

The Martial Dao Prime Body entered seclusion once more and drifted in the

Nether River.

The fourth time he woke up, he felt sinister ghost qi in the horizontal direction of the Nether River!

Ghost World!

The direction where the tributary of the Nether River surged into the Ghost World should be the River of Life that nurtured countless ghosts.

In the blink of an eye, a hundred years passed and the Martial Dao Prime Body woke up once more.

This time round, he broke through the surface of the Nether River and looked in the direction of the tributary of the Nether River. He frowned and a deep confusion flashed through his eyes.

He was back to square one!

The Nether River split into another tributary and it surged towards the Hell World!

How could this be?

Throughout the entire process, he did not control his direction and merely followed the flow of the Nether River downstream. After spending a hundred years, he finally took a detour and returned to the original Hell World?

The Nether River had no source?

Since it was the Six Paths, why was there no Human Dao or Heavenly Dao?

This was very different from his initial guess!

If the Nether River was a river that circled and flowed without a source, it should be static and not in a flowing form.

Where did the power that pushed the flow of the Nether River come from?

Since it was sourceless water, how was the Nether River formed?

What was in the center of the Nether River?

The Martial Dao Prime Body thought that he might be able to unravel the many secrets of the Nether River and resolve some of the doubts in his heart if he followed the current.

However, to think that a hundred years later, everything about the Nether River would still be unknown.

Instead, his doubts increased!

Thankfully, his cultivation had improved greatly in the past hundred years and he had benefited greatly. He was only half-step away from the Emperor realm and could break through at any moment!

The Martial Dao Prime Body extended his finger and ignited a ball of Red Lotus Karmic Fire.

The moment the Red Lotus Karmic Fire appeared, it seemed to be guided by a force and pointed towards the center of the Nether River!

The Martial Dao Prime Body pondered for a long time before summoning the Hell Suppression Tripod. It floated above his head.

Sanskrit reverberated from the tripod and Buddhist light shone. Thousands of golden lights overflowed from the tripod like a waterfall and formed a barrier around the Martial Dao Prime Body.

At the same time, the Martial Dao Prime Body held the Soul Lantern in his left hand and the Netherworld Treasure Mirror in his right. After making preparations, he began to cross the Nether River and headed into the depths.

That direction was only guided by the Red Lotus Karmic Fire!

The Martial Dao Prime Body did not walk quickly and was extremely careful as though he was walking on thin ice.

As he ventured deeper and further into the Nether River, the uneasiness in his heart intensified and he even felt his heart skip a beat!

As he ventured deeper, the Netherworld Treasure Mirror in his right hand began to stir, emitting a dangerous aura!

“Hmm?”

The Martial Dao Prime Body’s heart skipped a beat.

In reality, there had always been a mysterious and evil Weapon Spirit hidden in the Netherworld Treasure Mirror.

Back in the Frost Springs Hall, the Weapon Spirit wanted to devour all his Essence Blood!

However, at that time, he made use of the Soul Lantern to suppress the Weapon Spirit. There were no abnormal movements after that.

However, Su Zimo knew that the Weapon Spirit had not died and was merely hiding. *

The reason why he would not use the Netherworld Treasure Mirror unless he had no other choice was because he was wary of that.

Unexpectedly, as he crossed the Nether River and approached the center the Weapon Spirit in the Netherworld Treasure Mirror began to become restless!

The Martial Dao Prime Body did not dare to continue forward.

On the one hand, the pressure from the depths of the Nether River was too great and that terrifying emotion enveloped his heart the entire time.

On the other hand, with the Weapon Spirit of the Netherworld Treasure Mirror causing trouble, it was easy for it to take the opportunity to break free from his control and cause unforeseen events!

Right then, the Martial Dao Prime Body vaguely saw a flame!
