"Indeed, a ruthless one!"
Wu Dade couldn’t help but speak out,
"However, this person... indeed possesses the bearing of the Emperor of Black and White."
Lin Jiu Zheng and Jiang Li nodded as well.
In years past in the Yin Realm, the Emperor of Black and White had, in the era before the descent of the Saint, walked the Immortal Path’s cultivation, traversing forbidden lands and resisting the Yang realm’s disasters.
The ruthless one of today forges himself as a furnace, refining the Resentment Hunger, casting the City of Innocence, challenging the Dead Soil...
Indeed, they all have an unyielding spirit.
"One year ago... was precisely when we came from the Yin Realm to the Yang Realm."
Jiang Li slowly spoke up, a look of determination in his eyes as he gazed at the Ghost Star Domain ahead.
No matter what... they had to investigate.
"Whether this ruthless one is the Emperor of Black and White or not, he undoubtedly saw the key to this ’Star Fighting Resentment Dispelling Charm’, which is why he used the City of Innocence to suppress the passage."
Lin Jiu Zheng also confirmed with certainty, "This person has great courage."
But Ming Zhi was stunned, could it be... that these individuals here knew that formidable person??
Thinking again, it was very likely.
Because the manner of these individuals here was also very fierce!
"Let’s go, enter the Ghost Star Domain!"
They set off.
They quickly landed in the Ghost Star Domain.
The black earth, the rising ghostly fog, the thick ghostly aura here was far denser than the outside world.
The evil resentment was even more terrifying. Discover exclusive content at freewebnovel
Even the words on the heads of Tian An and Ming Zhi emitted light, protecting them.
They hadn’t progressed far.
"Ah..."
"Devour... I must devour everything..."
"Kill kill kill kill..."
In a city ahead, cries of slaughter, wails of anguish, and screams of terror were endless.
A Ghost Monarch Level powerhouse was going mad!
Within that city, countless ghostly beings were fleeing.
Meanwhile, affected by the Ghost Monarch Level Resentment Hunger, many ghostly beings’ resentment also erupted, turning it into a hell, where they devoured and slaughtered each other.
"No... why is it like this!"
"I don’t want to die... where is the Netherworld? Where is the Reincarnation Bridge? I want to be reborn!"
"What wrong have we done, to be slaves to Resentment Hunger! I despise it!"
Some of the coherent ghostly beings were crying in pain, some of them calling for the ancient legend of samsara.
The terrifying ghostly aura even surged towards Lin Jiu Zheng and company!
"How dare you create chaos!"
Lord Tianan bellowed, taking a step forward, his powerful presence intimidating the entire city as he took action against the maddened Ghost Monarch.
He had to stop that Ghost Monarch, otherwise, not only this ghost city, but many more would be affected.
A great battle erupted!
"Which Ghost Monarch has taken action?"
"Has he gone mad? This is fighting for one’s life!"
"A Ghost Monarch with Resentment Hunger acting up is like a flood beast beyond control... who dares to go against the current?"
Within the ghost city, countless ghostly beings were shocked.
A Ghost Monarch Level powerhouse was already fearsome, and when Resentment Hunger fully drove them into frenzy, unless it was a Ghost King, no one could subdue them.
But, quickly, Tian An’s Purple Extreme ghost body erupted, completely suppressing that Ghost Monarch!
The Ghost Monarch howled miserably, no match for Tian An, just having to endure the Resentment Hunger without relief.
"Endure it, stay conscious. Resentment Hunger is just a desire to slaughter, suppress it!"
While Tian An was suppressing the Ghost Monarch, he was also trying to wake him up with his loud calls.
"No..."
In the end, the Ghost Monarch let out a pained wail; his sanity was somewhat restored at this moment, but his ghostly eyes only reflected endless desolation.
"I can’t withstand Resentment Hunger... cannot resist it!"
"Samsara has emerged from the Ghost Domain, but unfortunately, there is no samsara in this world, the Ghost Domain is hell, we are all guilty, Resentment Hunger is our punishment..."
"There’s no samsara in this world... the Ghost Domain will not be saved, ha ha, ha ha ha..."
"If there were samsara... I would curse it!"
The Ghost Monarch let out his final wail before his soul body suddenly exploded.
Unable to bear the Resentment Hunger, he chose death.
That ghost city immediately quieted down.
Lord Tianan looked at the deceased Ghost Monarch with a trace of helplessness in his eyes.
"Can’t be saved..."
He murmured, the Ghost Monarch Level Resentment Hunger terrifying him.
Even he, had he not received the characters from Zi Ling, would probably also die facing this level of Resentment Hunger.
And the death of this Ghost Monarch weighed heavily on his mind.
Resentment Hunger was a heavy shackle, a destiny for all ghostly beings in the Ghost Domain.
"We greet the Ghost Monarch!"
"Are you a being from the Dead Soil? Dead Soil has looked after us, saved us!"
"Only by being loyal to the Dead Soil can we cleanse our sins!"
Inside the ghost city, countless ghostly beings knelt down excitedly towards Lord Tianan.
The Purple Extreme ghost body was legendary in the Ghost Domain, only able to be born within the Dead Soil.
Thus, they regarded Lord Tianan as a messenger from the Dead Soil.
But, Lord Tianan just shook his head and said,
"I am unrelated to the Dead Soil..."
"However... you will eventually be saved."
He immediately left.
Returning to Lin Jiu Zheng and the others.
"I might understand... the profound reason why Master sent us to the Ghost Domain."
At this moment, Lin Jiu Zheng suddenly spoke up.
His eyes determined, he said,
"Rare plants are indeed important, but perhaps the old man... is keen to solve all this!"
Jiang Li also nodded and said,
"The Ghost Domain is in turmoil!"
Hearing this, Lord Tianan and Ghost Lord Ming Zhi were immensely invigorated.
A sense of mission spontaneously arose!
They both realized that this time... they might be bringing hope to the entire Ghost Domain.
Their blood boiled!
But, at this time, Lin Jiu turned to them and continued,
"Hmm... that’s right, next time you take action, remember to collect some Ghost Teeth."
"The ordinary ones are unnecessary, but the Ghost Monarch level ones... the more, the better."
Upon hearing this, both Tian An and Ming Zhi were taken aback.
They had just established that sense of mission... and it crumbled in an instant.
He... was still concerned about the Ghost Teeth.
...
They continued on their way, crossing over half of the Ghost Star Domain.
Along the way, Ming Zhi and Tian An each made a move once more.
"Ghost Monarch level Resentment Hungers, which usually appear once in one or two years, are emerging one after another today... There is something odd about this."
The Ming Zhi Ghost Monarch spoke.
"The malevolent and resentful aura within the death qi of the Ghost Star Domain is too concentrated, accelerating the cycle of Resentment Hunger outbreaks... Something must have happened in the Dead Soil!"
Tian An conjectured.
At this moment, they arrived at a desolate ruin.
It was a black city, stretching ten thousand li, with its massive walls already collapsed and its foundations exposed, ruins and broken walls everywhere...
Yet, it was still apparent how majestic the city once was.
"This is the City of Innocence."
The Ming Zhi Ghost Monarch sighed.
Jiang Li contemplatively stepped forward first.
He sensed the interconnected layout between the city walls, with black and white chess lines seemingly evolving in the palm of his hand.
At this moment, he felt a resonance with a similar path!
"This city... is remarkable, it too has formed a terrain capable of repressing evil and blocking mysterious unknowns!"
Lin Jiu spoke gravely.
"If I am not mistaken... it should be him."
Jiang Li slowly spoke, his eyes filled with certainty.
Even Big Black Dog was caught off guard at this moment, muttering,
"When my master went to quell chaos, he encountered some other strong beings on the way... Several of them have tied karma with my master..."
"Is this the path of chess... him?"
...
And as they moved forward, they saw a black altar ahead.
The altar stood in the center of the City of Innocence.
"Over here is the Spirits’ Altar, the channel that connects to Dead Soil..."
Ming Zhi spoke.
Once, the City of Innocence was what repressed this altar.
Now, the City of Innocence has become a ruin, but the Spirits’ Altar remains.
At this moment, around the black Spirits’ Altar, countless strong members of the Ghost Clan were actually offering sacrifices!
"They... are communicating with the Dead Soil! Are they trying to open the channel to enter the Dead Soil?"
The Ming Zhi Ghost Monarch exclaimed in surprise.
They hurriedly approached.
But just as they reached the edge of the altar, suddenly, about a dozen Ghost Master level powerhouses appeared and barred their way.
"Please, halt!"
This content is taken from freёwebnovel.com.
One of the Ninth Heaven Ghost Masters, wary, looked towards Tian An and Ming Zhi and said,
"Are the two Ghost Monarchs here by invitation?"
Tian An responded indifferently,
"We were not invited."
This Ghost Master spoke with a grave voice,
"Yuhuan Ghost Monarch and the other seven Ghost Monarchs are currently pooling their efforts to open the Dead Soil channel. No disturbance is allowed; thus, you cannot enter. Please understand."
Upon hearing this, Ming Zhi was surprised and said,
"Yuhuan? That woman is here too? What’s with the ’cannot enter’? I’ve been in before... Ah, spit it out, move aside!"
He released his Ghost Monarch aura, and the Ghost Master’s face changed, no longer daring to block their way.
"Who dares to disrupt our channel-opening endeavor?"
Just then, from the altar, a cold voice sounded.
It came from a Ghost Monarch.
In an instant, Tian An and Ming Zhi felt the scrutiny of no less than eight Ghost Monarch level gazes!
"Oh, isn’t this Ming Zhi?"
At the same moment, a captivating and seductive female voice suddenly rang out.
A silhouette with ghostly aura appeared by the altar and transformed into a striking woman who approached immediately.
She wore a black gauze dress, her long white legs clearly visible, her devilish figure faintly discernible, with certain parts gently quivering. Her beautiful eyes held a smile as she said,
"Ming Zhi... it’s been such a long time since you last played with sister. Sister truly... misses you to death."
Ming Zhi then said,
"The last time I saw you, you were only a Ninth Heaven Ghost Master... now you’ve actually become a Ghost Monarch."
"You Essence-Eating Ghost... business must be booming."
Yuhuan Ghost Monarch smiled radiantly, looking enchanting as she said,
"It’s all thanks to the brothers’ care."
"How about it? Are you also going to the Dead Soil to chance upon a fortune?"
Hearing this, Ming Zhi, confused, said,
"What fortune?"
Yuhuan said,
"Ming Zhi, little brother, you’re not being good. Why play innocent in front of your sister... Nowadays, within the Ghost Domain, who doesn’t know that a message has come out from the Dead Soil? ’Yellow Springs’ has begun flowing again."
"You... surely you’ve come for the Yellow Springs?"
Yellow Springs!
Upon hearing this, both Tian An and Ming Zhi were startled.
"Yellow Springs flowing again... how is that possible!"
"Yellow Springs... it is said to be related to Samsara, and drinking a mouthful can wash away one’s sins..."
Tian An and Ming Zhi looked at each other in disbelief.
Yellow Springs was one of the great mysteries within the Dead Soil!
Yuhuan laughed and said,
"I and Ghost Lord Yi Fan are ready to activate the altar. So, are you coming?"
Her soft allure rippled as she said,
"Otherwise, how about you play with me for a while, let me have a full meal, and I’ll take you to the Dead Soil with me, how does that sound?"
Her body emitted an extremely bewitching charm.
...
Goodnight
