Meng Xiaodie looked back and forth between the two gates of life and death, were these two gates of life and death for demons? Was it set up for him, Meng Xiaodie?
Logically speaking, these two gates of life and death should have already existed. They should have been set up for the captured demons, choosing between the gates of life and death to turn evil to righteousness, to let go of the saber and turn into Buddha, or to not repent in the face of death, to take down eighteen levels of hell, never to reincarnate.
Although the space at the top of the seven-level pagoda was very small, Meng Xiaodie could feel a powerful aura surging within. That aura was not a single Qi field, but Yin and Yang energies and Yin and Evil energies clashing together. This was no wonder. There were so many demons and ghosts inside the stone tower. They were probably restless all the time, wanting to break out of this strong cage.
Although the stone pagoda had the method to suppress demons and was heavily sealed, the primordial spirit of the demon still stored a tremendous amount of energy. The moment the primordial spirit broke out of the pagoda, the result would be unimaginable.
Meng Xiaodie thought of the weird voice that she had heard earlier. Was that the voice of the Supreme Realm cultivator that guarded the pagoda? Or was it the primordial spirit of the demon? So what if the fourth floor was swept clean? Meng Xiaodie looked at it carefully. If someone came into the stone tower, there would be footprints on the stairs and the floor, but when he came in, he didn't find any footprints. He didn't even see the tracks of the thing that jumped out.
Meng Xiaodie started to look carefully at the seven holes of the white jade ball. The seven holes were filled with clouds, and the clouds were flowing back and forth between the seven holes. The ball was bright and dim, and there seemed to be some tiny particles in the clouds.
The seven-hole white jade ball was embedded in a piece of black marble, but it looked as if it had fused with the stone, as if the seven-hole white jade ball had originally grown on the black marble, and even the lines on the jade were identical.
The red and black door of life and death was on the two sides of the seven-hole white jade ball. Meng Xiaodie walked to the red door of life and death first. But red represented a kind of life, a kind of life. This was what Meng Xiaodie wanted to see.
Since she didn't like the color red, Meng Xiaodie had come to the black door of death, which was thick and black, filled with killing intent.
Meng Xiaodie liked black, like this thick black color. He reached out and pushed at the black door. The door creaked open and it was pitch black inside. He had originally thought that these two doors were just a symbol, but he hadn't thought that they would actually be opened.
This black door was the way to life? Or did it lead to death? He turned around and saw that the seven-hole white jade ball was actually rotating. The clouds were rising up from the seven-hole. In a short while, the entire top of the seven-floor tower was filled with white clouds, and the black door of life and death was appearing and disappearing in the clouds.
Meng Xiaodie no longer hesitated as he stepped into the black Gate of Life and Death.
As soon as Meng Xiaodie went in, the door behind her slammed shut, and the white cloud mist was shut. He took a few steps forward, feeling that the space was very large, but because it was too dark and he could not see the path, he groped his way forward step by step. After walking for a few dozen meters, there was a glimmer of light in front of him.
Meng Xiaodie thought, could this be the dividing line between Yin and Yang? Is this cave a Yin or Yang world? Since they were already here, they couldn't care less. They could ignore the Yin World and enter first.
Entering the Yin Yang World, there was a chilly wind blowing inside. There seemed to be a sound not far away. It sounded like a miserable howl, but also like a happy laugh. Because the distance was too far, the sound that passed through would fluctuate between high and low. He took out his black sword and walked towards the sound. The sound was right in front of him, but he did not get close to it even after walking for half an hour.
After walking for a distance, Meng Xiaodie finally saw a glimmer of light in front of her. As she approached, she realized that it was a cave. The shimmer had come from inside the cave.
The door of the cave was made of green brick, some of the bricks had already fallen off, and appeared to be quite old. To be able to see the green brick here, it was beyond Meng Xiaodie's expectations, this was not the Yin World, it was impossible for the Yin World to have this kind of green brick, it was more like a tomb brick.
Meng Xiaodie walked into the cave. Inside, there was indeed a huge coffin. In front of the coffin, there was an oil lamp with a dim light shining from it. Judging by the size of the tomb chamber, it looked more like a general than a tomb. The coffin was made of golden silk and the wooden coffin had four terracotta soldiers standing on either side of it.
Judging from the terracotta soldier that accompanied the funeral, there was a high possibility that a general was lying inside the coffin. Meng Xiaodie looked around the tomb chamber and found an altar at the front of the tomb chamber. On the altar, there was an incense burner and tombstone like memorial tablets. Because of the dim light, he couldn't clearly see what was written. He brought the oil lamp over and when he got closer to look, his face changed dramatically. He could clearly see that the tablet said: Meng Xiaodie's Tomb.
Meng Xiaodie thought she had seen wrongly, so she blinked her eyes and said, "Don't tell me this is my tomb?" Impossible! I, Meng Xiaodie, am standing here perfectly fine! How could this be my grave? Perhaps there was a person with the same surname as her being buried here. There were too many people in this world with multiple family names, and it wasn't surprising that there was someone with a similar surname Meng Xiaodie.
Besides, the person buried in the coffin is a general, I am a person who roamed the world, how could I possibly be a general? With that thought, Meng Xiaodie felt relieved, and he bowed towards the tablet. He got up and looked again, and there was a couplet written on both sides of the altar.
Meng Xiaodie was stunned again. Could it be that the general among them also had the name of Heartless Black Sword?
There are people with multiple names in the world, but it is impossible for them to have the same name. Meng Xiaodie felt that something was wrong. This tomb might really be her tomb, and the one in the coffin might be her.
The Gate of Life and Death. Entering the Gate of Life and Death, perhaps it was to let you see your own death, your own living self and your dead self conversing in the same time and space.
Meng Xiaodie carefully looked around the altar and found that there was a stone tablet under the altar with the epitaph engraved on it. Meng Xiaodie looked at it once and confirmed that it was indeed herself. It said on the tablet that after calming down the chaos in the Mage City, he had broken a few big cases and did a few big things. The next date was a hundred years later.
He entered the Gate of Life and Death. For some reason, after a hundred years, in a different time and place, he walked into his own tomb.
