The thing that Fire Demon Futu was guarding was a cave, a very ordinary cave.
The height was about 1.5 meters. Even a relatively short person like Shen Xianlai had to bend his body slightly to advance. The width of the cave was slightly smaller than the height, but the difference was not too great. Basically, it was a perfect circle.
The dark green stone wall was smooth and damp, and there were many crystal clear water droplets in many places. It was as if the stone wall inside the cave was the skin of some creature, and a lot of sweat flowed out. The stone wall felt cold to the touch.
This cave was long and narrow, and Shen Xianlai walked for a long time without seeing the end. Due to the rise and fall of the cave, Shen Xianlai didn't know whether he was walking up or down.
After walking for a long time, Shen Xianlai vaguely felt a very subtle sound behind him, as if something was flapping its wings and vibrating the air. Shen Xianlai stopped and wanted to know what was coming from behind.
A fist-sized bat flew over from behind Shen Xianlai.
Shen Xianlai stretched out his right hand, his palm facing upwards. The black bat obediently landed in Shen Xianlai's hands. After the bat landed on Shen Xianlai's palm, it turned into a one-centimeter-tall little person. This little person looked exactly like the Fire Demon Futu Ke.
Shen Xianlai wasn't afraid because he knew that this was only a spirit realm, a small spirit realm used to transmit information.
"Brat! Do you think you can sneak back to the world of the living by getting me drunk? Don't deny it. I already know who you are! You are a demon that escaped from King Chujiang's Southern Hell!”
Seeing the exasperated look on the Flame Demon Futu Ke's face, Shen Xianlai's lips curled into a smile. He had already run far away. It would not be easy for the Flame Demon Futu Ke to catch up to him.
When the little person in Shen Xianlai's hand said this, he suddenly revealed a sinister smile. He looked very cunning." Kid! Do you know where you've run off to? The cave that you entered is indeed a passage that leads back to the Yang Realm. However, that passage is also the stomach of the ancient ferocious god, Xing Tian! A long time ago, Xing Tian's head was chopped off by the Celestial Thearch. His body was buried here, turning into a huge mountain, and his neck became a hole. You must feel that this cave is winding and seems to have no end, right? Because this was Xing Tian's intestines! If you keep going in, you might still reach the Yang world. However, you have to pass through a place called the Yellow Springs…The so-called Yellow Springs is actually the feces in Xing Tian's stomach! Do you want to go back to the world of the living, or do you want to leave the cave and be captured? I'm looking forward to your choice."
A blue flame rose from Shen Xianlai's right palm and burned the little person into ashes.
Shen Xianlai didn't believe what Flame Demon Futu Ke said to him. Was this Xing Tian's stomach? Could it be that Xing Tian's stomach was completely filled with gallstones? Could he believe what his enemy told him? Shen Xianlai firmly believed that there would be no problem if he kept walking into the cave.
As he walked, Shen Xianlai suddenly slipped into a pool of yellow and sticky liquid. This pool of liquid was a pond with an irregular shape. It was about ten meters long and wide. The depth was temporarily undetectable, but the edge of the area where Shen Xianlai was at had already reached his chest.
Shen Xianlai suddenly believed the words of Fire Demon Futu Ke. This place might be Xing Tian's stomach, and this pond might be the Yellow Spring. It was not a pleasant thing to be immersed in the water of the Yellow Spring. The Yellow Spring water emitted a pungent stench. This stench did not make people feel nauseous. It was still bearable. The most disgusting thing was the creatures in the Yellow Spring.
Those creatures were actually spirit bodies. They looked like octopuses and were yellow-green in color. They were about one-third the size of an adult's palm. It was unknown how many of these creatures there were. When they sensed that Shen Xianlai had entered the Yellow Spring, they all swam towards him and clung onto his body. After these creatures attached themselves to Shen Xianlai's body, they began to devour his soul in a frenzy. -- Absorbing souls was different from absorbing ling power. Absorbing ling power was not considered irreversible damage, but absorbing souls was irreversible damage.
Shen Xianlai desperately tried to break free from these disgusting little octopus-like spirit bodies, but more and more of them were attached to his body. Helpless, he could only desperately swim to the shore. When he was alive, Shen Xianlai could also swim. However, he lacked physical strength. He was already exhausted after swimming half a lap. He couldn't be blamed for this. A guy with several malignant tumors and living like a healthy person was already a miracle.
However, in the Yellow Springs, there was a suction force that desperately sucked Shen Xian to the center. After swimming for a while, Shen Xianlai finally gave up his futile struggle and dove towards the center of the Yellow Spring. Because the center of the Yellow Spring had a suction force on him, it was especially easy to swim. The winding passage extended all the way to the Yellow Spring, and it seemed to be the end. Since it was the end, perhaps the passage to the Yang World was at the bottom of the Yellow Spring.
There was indeed a huge pit at the bottom of the Yellow Spring. The rest of the Yellow Spring was filled with murky yellow water, but this place was filled with clear water. The temperature of the water was also different from the other places. The temperature of the water here was especially high. After Shen Xianlai entered, the large number of octopus-shaped spirit bodies attached to his body that sucked souls quickly dissolved and disappeared.
When Shen Xianlai came out of the Yellow Springs, he especially looked at the sky. In the sky, there was a crescent moon and a few stars. This meant that he had returned to the Yang world.
This experience had a profound impact on Shen Xianlai's future. Those octopus-like spirit bodies had sucked his soul, which caused him to lose a lot of his memories. He could roughly remember his past, but he had forgotten many details. He had forgotten where he was from, what his parents 'names were, and what they looked like. To Shen Xianlai, there were many things that he only had a vague impression of.
The octopuses that sucked souls had a profound effect on Shen Xianlai. It was not as simple as losing his memory. It was also because his memory was a little chaotic. He always thought that after he died, he would become a yaksha of the underworld, and a yaksha sent to the human world to work, specifically responsible for eliminating evil spirits that committed sins in the world of the living. However, it seemed that this memory could not be pieced together with the memory of him being imprisoned in hell.
The most contradictory thing was that, according to some other knowledge in Shen Xianlai's mind, he did not look like a Yaksha. The Yaksha had antle-like horns on its forehead, bat-like wings on its back, and a pair of eagle-like sharp claws. Its skin was still green. Shen Xianlai looked like most of the Han youths, and obviously did not fit this image.
So what if they didn't match? Shen Xianlai firmly believed that he was a yaksha with a righteous heart.
