Deep into Nether Spring (5K)_3 Chapter 1213: 474: Informant!
Collaboration!
Deep into Nether Spring (5K)_3 Below the keep was the world of the deceased, far from the living world of the mortal realm filled with the vigor of blood and life.
The group all possessed strong vital force, belonging to cultivators of paths not akin to their own, and to enter the Nether Spring was to contend against the Ghost Immortal Great Dao; they would either be stripped of their liveliness and become one of them or perpetually remain in opposition.
Chen Dengming was a Taoist Body sculpted from Daoist Stone, and in the bitter cold spring water, he was indeed able to endure much more than the other Dao Monarchs.
...
However, at this moment, he still followed the plan, pressing his fingers together and pointing at his brow.
Instantly, a mark resembling a dragon’s claw appeared on his brow, connecting his spirit to the Senluo main body located within the Soul World, aiming to draw upon a portion of Senluo’s power.
A cloud of black mist emerged on the spot, whirling around the tip of Chen Dengming’s finger, dispersing the bone-chilling cold around them.
“Go——”
With a point of his finger, a swath of dense black mist spread out, enveloping the figures of Dongfang Huayuan and the others, instantly dispersing the cold qi that was continuously invading their bodies to deprive them of their vital force.
It also isolated the vital aura of the living group, avoiding detection by powerful Ghost Creatures.
“Nicely done, Brother Chen, Senluo’s presence indeed shields us well.
With this, we can now traverse beneath the Nether Spring without the advantage of terrain, nor will we be suppressed by it.”
Dongfang Huayuan laughed and transmitted his voice.
Starfall Old Ghost was inwardly astonished and proud; even a naturally born Nether Beast as powerful as Senluo had been subdued by his master, and he, Starfall, was no less dignified.
Chen Dengming nodded slightly but did not respond.
His figure flew out of the black mist, and with a curious gaze from the others, he formed hand seals to open the Death Gate within his body.
Immediately, a rich qi of death exuded from within him.
Chen Dengming’s hair rapidly transitioned to white, and his entire being was shrouded in death qi, his aura icy cold.
In that moment, the Nether Spring Qi invading his body from all directions seemed to weaken its assault, and the feeling of resistance and rejection from the world, being out of place, diminished significantly.
“Life and Death Rhyme…”
“Daoist friend Chen, even without the protection of Senluo’s presence, you could survive beneath the Nether Spring.”
The Deity Transformation Dao Lords exclaimed.
Chen Dengming smiled and shook his head, “Not quite, I can barely survive, but I can’t maintain it for too long.
The Dao of this realm of the deceased will continuously deprive me of my last vestige of life force and won’t let me be completely.”
His figure moved, returning to within the black mist, opening the Life Gate, and soon the death qi turned back into vital qi, and both his body’s aura and hair color returned to normal.
In a state where most of his vital qi transformed into death qi, he could indeed minimize the damage from the Nether Spring Qi, but as long as he wasn’t completely deceased and still possessed vital qi within his body, that sense of opposition to the alien path wouldn’t disappear entirely.
At this moment, under the cover of Senluo’s presence, the group swiftly passed through the Nether Spring and quietly infiltrated into Starfall Ghost City.
“Brother Chen!”
The tall and burly Ghost King Chu Xun, dressed in pitch-black armor and wreathed in Yin Thunder, along with his two Ghost Ladies, had been waiting at the edge of the Nether Spring.
Seeing Chen Dengming’s figure, a sincere smile of joy burst onto the face of the burly Ghost King, who immediately stepped forward to salute and then gave a big bear hug.
Crack-pop——
Bursts of Yin Thunder exploded between the two.
Giant Deer disdainfully extended a hoof to kick away several bolts of Yin Thunder.
“Old Zhu, you’ve gained quite a bit of strength.
That ghostly body sculpted from Yin Soil is rather impressive, very mighty.”
Chen Dengming laughed heartily, tapping on Chu Xun’s sturdy chest.
“It’s all thanks to your mentoring all this time, Brother Chen, or else how would a butcher like me have today?” Chu Xun said, his eyes dimming slightly, “It’s a pity about Qiangzi, Brother Chen, after this matter is over, I’ll go with you to see Qiangzi.”
“Qiangzi is in no danger for now, I’ve already found Snow Ginseng for him, he still has two more years of life; after this matter, I will take you to see him.”
At this, aside from Dongfang Huayuan who was unsurprised, the other Deity Transformation Dao Lords all exchanged glances.
How many agents has The Fifth Ancestor of Longevity planted in the Nether Spring?
Now there was yet another Nascent Soul Stage Ghost King who seemed very familiar with him, as if he had already begun cultivating a foundation in the Nether Spring; is this the strategizing ability that Long-life Old Turtle was always known for?
There was no time for reminiscing, as the matter at hand was pressing; Chen Dengming and Chu Xun didn’t dwell on the past for long.
Chu Xun and Starfall Old Ghost had already followed Chen Dengming’s instructions, clearing the Ghost City inside and out, preparing the route for departure and Magic Artifacts.
Chen Dengming summoned several progenies of Senluo from the Soul World and secretly hid them behind Starfall Ghost City, then left the city with the group aboard the ghost chariots personally driven by Chu Xun, rushing towards Netherworld Ghost City.
“Brother Chen, esteemed seniors, it was just two days ago that the Ghost King of the Netherworld seemed to be stirring.
According to our intelligence gathering, the Ghost King of the Netherworld has made contact with several powerful Ghost Monarchs.
But our Starfall Ghost City was not within the scope of that contact, so we don’t know the specifics…”
In a huge ghost chariot pulled by several Dark Snakes, Chu Xun sat inside, reporting the situation to Chen Dengming and the others.
“However, over the years, there have been frequent visits by various Ghost Kings seeking the support of the Ghost King of the Netherworld, hoping to invade the mortal world, and when the Ghost King succeeds in inheriting the Ghost Immortal legacy, they too could sip some broth.
This time, I’m going to Netherworld Ghost City under the flag of joining the Ghost King of the Netherworld, to cover for Brother Chen and the esteemed seniors to sneak into Netherworld Ghost City discreetly and catch the Ghost King of the Netherworld off guard!”
“Good, this also avoids alarming the enemy,” Chen Dengming nodded slightly.
The Five Elements Taoist frowned, “The Ghost King of the Netherworld suddenly contacted several Ghost Monarchs secretively two days ago?
Has he sensed something?”
Dongfang Huayuan, Lord Star Cloud, and Lord Divine Tortoise also showed pensive expressions.
“It’s not impossible.”
Chen Dengming nodded, a flash of wisdom sparkling in his eyes as he said, “Therefore, our battle must be swift and decisive, to set an example by making an example of the Ghost King.
If any unforeseen events occur, I will release Senluo to cover for everyone to retreat quickly.
In any case, according to the divination I conducted before, everything is still within expectations…
please rest assured, everyone!”
Hearing this, the group’s expressions relaxed slightly, unconsciously swayed by the strength Chen Dengming displayed and his orderly arrangements, they were gradually won over…
