Infinite simulation from lock dragon well

Beneath the Huai River.

Ji Zheng lay on the silt, raising his dragon head to look at the screen visible only to him.

The simulation continued.

【Day 7: You enter Kunlun Mountain with Xiang Yao. Under Xiang Yao's guidance, you successfully ascend the passage to Kunlun Mountain.

You and Xiang Yao quickly reach the end of the Kunlun Mountain passage. At the end, you see a giant golden gate standing before you, guarded by a strange beast.

The beast's body resembles a tiger, with nine heads, each with a human face. Its aura is exceptionally fierce. When the beast's gaze falls upon you, your heart trembles…】

Body like a tiger, nine human-faced heads, guarding a gate on Kunlun Mountain.

This is clearly the Kai Ming Beast.

Ji Zheng recognized it, and truly felt no pressure.

In mythology, Kunlun Mountain is the Heavenly Emperor's capital in the mortal realm, with Lu Wu as the guardian of the mountain. However, the one guarding the gate of Kunlun Mountain is the Kai Ming Beast.

It is said that Kunlun Mountain has nine gates, each guarded by a Kai Ming Beast. The Kai Ming Beasts are solemn and majestic, always keeping their eyes wide open, so that no demons or monsters can escape their gaze. They prevent any abnormal creatures from entering Kunlun Mountain, protecting its peace.

"The gatekeepers of Kunlun Mountain."

Ji Zheng could only think of this term.

He felt that the Kai Ming Beasts were indeed like 'gatekeepers,' only a strengthened version.

How could ordinary gatekeepers possess the strength of the Kai Ming Beasts?

But it was normal, after all, they were the gatekeepers of Kunlun Mountain. If they weren't strong, how could they guard Kunlun Mountain?

Ji Zheng continued to watch the simulation.

…

【The Kai Ming Beast stares intently at you, seemingly not allowing you to pass. Seeing this, you prepare for battle. You coil your dragon body, widen your eyes, and release your dragon威, creating a tense atmosphere for a great battle.

Seeing this, Xiang Yao quickly steps forward and tells the Kai Ming Beast that he wants to bring you into Kunlun Mountain, so that you can be used to pull chariots in the future. Upon hearing this, the Kai Ming Beast makes way…】

Ji Zheng: “？”

This Xiang Yao.

Wants to bring him to Kunlun Mountain as a mount?

Why does he suddenly feel like he's about to be sold into a brothel?

Ji Zheng's entire dragon face almost twisted.

Xiang Yao wanted him to go to Kunlun Mountain with this intention.

How could the simulated him submit?

Not to mention the simulation, even the real him would never submit.

The simulation continued.

…

【Knowing Xiang Yao's true intentions, you are enraged. You immediately launch a furious attack, instantly killing Xiang Yao. After Xiang Yao's death, his blood transforms into a swamp, engulfing the passage.

The nine Kai Ming Beasts are unable to pursue you, but they all say in unison that you have angered Kunlun Mountain and have nowhere to escape!】

【Day 8: You flee the Kunlun Mountain area and enter the south, approaching a mountain peak, preparing to enter it to heal your injuries.

But just as you are about to enter the mountain peak, a dozen or so demons suddenly appear and attack you. You instantly kill these demons. You are puzzled, not understanding why these demons are attacking you.】

…

【Day 10: You are resting on a mountain in the south, but suddenly, dozens more demons find you, and you casually kill them. But you don't understand why these demons are attacking you for no reason.】

【Day 11: Dozens more demons attack you. This time, you only kill most of them, leaving a few alive. You ask them the reason.

The few demons, under threat, explain the reason to you. It turns out that Kunlun Mountain has issued the Kunlun Demon Edict, ordering all demons to attack you. Your whereabouts were previously seen by a demon in the south, and the news spread, which is why these demons came to attack you one after another…】

Kunlun Demon Edict?

Seeing this familiar term.

Ji Zheng was stunned.

He first heard this term when he was still a Jiaolong, and learned it from the Nine-Tailed Fox.

At that time, the Kunlun Demon Edict was to launch attacks on humans.

Now the Kunlun Demon Edict has become to kill him?

Ji Zheng suddenly felt that this simulation was dangerous at any time.

Although Kunlun Mountain is in the west, its influence spans the entire world, and almost all demons follow the orders of Kunlun Mountain.

His fight at Kunlun Mountain is almost equivalent to being at war with the world.

"Simulation is just a simulation, I can't provoke Kunlun Mountain in reality."

Ji Zheng quickly made this decision in his heart.

He continued to watch the simulation.

…

【Day 12: You learn about the Kunlun Demon Edict, and you know that you can no longer stay in the south, so you immediately prepare to leave.

But as you are about to leave, you hesitate again. You don't know where to go, and you know that if you return to the Huai River, it will bring disaster to the Huai River.

But no matter where you go, you can't escape the Kunlun Demon Edict, so you have no choice but to continue heading east, but you don't want to return to the Huai River, but plan to enter the east.

You know that the demons in the east belong to the Golden Crow and will not follow the Kunlun Demon Edict.】

…

【Day 14: You enter the east. As expected, after entering the east, no demons attack you at all.

You then ride the clouds and fog, all the way east.】

【Day 15: The Kunlun Mountain passage revives…】

…

【Day 17: You arrive in the Great Mountain area of the east. Facing your approach, the Golden Crow on the Great Mountain of the east does not make any movements, only the red light on it flickers, as if greeting you.

You are stunned for a moment, and also heavily nod your dragon head. Immediately, you look ahead, and continuing forward is already the East Sea.

You hesitate for a moment. Although you are unwilling, you still plan to go to the East Sea to take a look.】

【Day 18: You swim into the East Sea. Entering the ocean, you are like a dragon returning to the sea. The demons in the ocean feel your aura and tremble, not daring to be fierce.】

【Day 19: You secretly feel bored. You find that there are no powerful demons in the entire East Sea, and it is very quiet…】

【Day 20: You suddenly notice a giant mountain appearing in front of you.

This giant mountain stands on the sea above the East Sea, attracting your attention. You can't help but swim out of the sea. From the surface of the sea, you see a giant tree on this mountain. This tree is a peach tree, winding and circling, its length and height are very amazing, and you can't help but become curious.

You immediately headed towards that giant mountain, wanting to see what it held.

Day 21: You ascended the giant mountain. After some exploration, you discovered it was empty, save for a massive peach tree standing tall.

Day 22: The Jianmu Divine Tree revived. Even in the East Sea, you could see the soaring azure light pillar, but you paid it no mind, focused solely on exploring the mountain before you.

You approached the peach tree and carefully examined it, but found nothing unusual.

Then, you looked towards the northeast. The peach tree twisted and wound its way there, with a thick, long branch curving down to the ground, forming a gate-like structure. Beside the gate stood two statues, both clad in armor, with black, bristling beards, one holding a broadsword or halberd in his left hand, and both holding reed ropes in their right…

The latest novels are available first at [Liù Jìu Shū Bā]!

This image, the mountain, the peach tree, in the East Sea…

Mount Dushuo?

Suddenly, Ji Zheng thought of a name from mythology.

In mythology, Mount Dushuo, also known as Mount Taodu, has a peach tree on it, and beneath the peach tree is a gate called the 'Ghost Gate,' where countless ghosts reside.

It is said that the ghosts of Mount Dushuo often descended the mountain to harm humans, but the Heavenly Emperor learned of this and sent two divine beings to guard the Ghost Gate and prevent the ghosts from causing trouble.

These two divine beings are the later-renowned door gods 'Shen Tu' and 'Yu Lei'.

The images of these two divine beings are identical to the statues in the simulation, both wielding divine weapons, clad in armor, and holding reed ropes.

Reed ropes are ropes woven from reeds, meant to ward off evil spirits and ghosts. In later generations, many people would hang them in front of their doors during the New Year.

This custom originated from the two divine beings, Shen Tu and Yu Lei.

After being ordered by the Heavenly Emperor to guard the Ghost Gate, some ghosts were still audacious enough to sneak down the mountain and harm humans. Upon learning this, Shen Tu and Yu Lei would use reed ropes to bind the ghosts and feed them to tigers.

Legends about tigers being able to ward off ghosts are related to this event.

"I've come to Mount Dushuo…"

"Judging by the state of Mount Dushuo, it seems it hasn't fully revived yet? Should I try to seize its authority?"

"I can't control it in the simulation, which is a pity. But whether I can seize Mount Dushuo or not is irrelevant. Mount Dushuo isn't like Mount Kunlun, which can reach the heavens and the earth. Mount Dushuo can only connect with the underworld, which is a step below."

Thoughts arose in Ji Zheng's mind one after another.

Speaking of which, he truly understood this world.

This world is a true three-realm world, divided into the Celestial Realm, the Human Realm, and the Underworld.

The Celestial Realm has celestial gods, the Human Realm is where he is now, with strange beasts, humans, and ghosts, and the Underworld is unknown.

Forget it, the Underworld has nothing to do with him. Ghosts are good at dealing with humans, but dealing with him, a black dragon, is just asking for a beating.

"Speaking of which, why does this simulation seem to be completely at odds with door gods? First, it was the Kai Ming Beast of Mount Kunlun, and now I've encountered the two door gods of Mount Dushuo."

Ji Zheng couldn't help but shake his dragon head and continued to watch the simulation.

...

"After carefully observing the statues of Shen Tu and Yu Lei for a long time, you prepared to leave. Just as you were about to depart, the statues of Shen Tu and Yu Lei suddenly flashed with golden light."

"After the golden light disappeared, two figures appeared, none other than the two divine beings, Shen Tu and Yu Lei. The two divine beings looked at you with amiable expressions, asking what business you had at Mount Dushuo."

"You stated that you had no business, but simply came to explore Mount Dushuo during your travels. Upon hearing this, Shen Tu and Yu Lei exchanged glances and asked if you could guard Mount Dushuo for them."

"The two divine beings explained to you that they had not fully revived and were unable to guard it. Previously, they had been trapping the ghosts of Mount Dushuo, which was already their limit, but if the ghosts were unable to come out for a long time, they would inevitably breed resentment, so they wanted to ask you to guard Mount Dushuo for them until they fully revived, at which point they would surely repay you."

"After thinking for a moment, you agreed, since you would be blocked by the Kunlun Demon Token if you returned now, and staying on Mount Dushuo was no different."

"Upon seeing this, the two divine beings said a few words to you, then their figures flashed and they transformed back into statues."

Help guard Mount Dushuo?

It can be like this?

Mount Dushuo holds ghosts?

Ji Zheng suddenly became a little curious.

What expressions would the ghosts of Mount Dushuo have if they encountered him, a black dragon?

Filled with curiosity, Ji Zheng continued to watch the simulation.

...

Day 23: This night, you coiled in front of the Ghost Gate of the peach tree, your dragon might faintly visible.

In your gaze, the Ghost Gate rippled with black energy. You had seen this black energy before, when the humans used 'Guan Jiang Shou' against you, they also had black energy on them, but that kind of black energy carried golden light, while this was completely black energy.

You stared carefully at the black energy. Soon, two shadows appeared from the Ghost Gate. In your eyes, they were two somewhat transparent human figures, with black energy缠绕 around them.

You watched the two transparent ghosts, and the expressions on their faces changed from madness to terror.

Under your gaze, the two ghosts quickly retreated, afraid of being eaten by you if they were too slow.

You looked at all of this in astonishment, not understanding why. You didn't think you were ferocious.

In bewilderment, you called out a few times, telling the ghosts to come out, stating that it was time for them to stretch their legs, but none of the ghosts dared to step out of the gate.

You looked at all of this in a daze. Soon, the night passed, and at dawn, a golden-feathered chicken climbed to the top of the peach tree and crowed. Upon hearing the crow, the Peach Tree Ghost Gate completely closed and returned to its original form.
