Chapter 649: Chapter 328: Netherworld·Deep Blue: Isis·Silkworm Life
Netherworld.
The entire world is shrouded in an eerie green mist, with a pervasive aura of decay enveloping heaven and earth.
Within this mist, the wails and despair of souls spread throughout.
Occasionally, some entities from beyond the world fall in and are instantly corroded by the dark green mist covering the entire world, quickly assimilated into corpse ghosts.
Over the long years in the Netherworld, these corpse ghosts will continue to evolve, and upon certain opportunities, they too will become the native inhabitants here.
The Netherworld that makes the world tremble.
And within the mist, in a vast city, the architecture here is quite strange.
Without doors or windows, like tombs of Western castles, it exudes a sense of oppression.
The Netherworld is all soul bodies, the architecture is merely a gathering place built in imitation of the people of Xia.
In this gathering place, occasionally ghosts wander, yet they all display a hint of reverence, feeling the angry aura from the enormous palace at the center, causing all ghosts to lower their bodies.
In recent years, in such a short time, countless waves of suppressed anger have erupted from the palace of the Netherworld’s third demon god, even without hysterical shouting.
Yet it still makes the residents of Soul-devouring City live cautiously.
Tap tap tap...
A faint tapping sound comes from the armrest, in an oppressive palace, with deep blue flames illuminating the dark green mist, casting fleeting shadows on a throne.
The tapping of fingers adds a heavy ambience.
When it reaches a certain level, a ghost standing below the throne suddenly kneels, burying her forehead deep into the ground, her body uncontrollably trembling.
She is called Isis.
The latest divine abomination created by Baiyi, who left her in the Netherworld after her creation.
Perhaps due to destiny, after Feiya, she too was picked up by a god.
But the only difference was that the first generation of Silkworm Life was so perfect, even gods couldn’t tell it was artificial.
After all, the first generation was nurtured, but the second generation is different.
The second generation became more controllable, controllable for Baiyi, which means weakening for Silkworm Life.
In the face of gods, Isis had no power to resist, seen through as an artificial creation with one glance.
Yet she could not disguise herself as a divine artifact like her two brothers in the Abyss.
Her life in the Netherworld was nothing but fearful and cautious.
"Isis..."
A low murmur emerges from the mouth of Pageman, the Netherworld’s third god, intensifying the oppressive atmosphere.
"I am here, Your Excellency."
"You were created, probably intended to infiltrate the Netherworld, right?"
"Yes... yes, Your Excellency."
The fear in Isis’s eyes becomes increasingly real, palpable; she does not wish to die.
Tap tap tap...
Pageman’s deep blue eyes gaze at the illusory spirit body, speaking coldly, "You claimed you wouldn’t meddle again, tell me, why did you daydream just now?"
"Your... Your Excellency, my creator sent me a message, planting fear of them in our hearts... I cannot remain calm while receiving their messages, even as I hear your teachings."
Isis responds tremblingly, sparingly allocating a bit of attention to the cross-dimensional communicator in her talent space.
[How is your progress lately? Need any help?]
Tap~
Pageman ceases tapping the armrest, leaning slightly forward, voice still indifferent: "I did not sense the aura of any other god on you."
"Because... because it is something buried within my genes." Isis trembles and says, "And this connection is irregular, as you know, the Lord of Scarlet was recently tricked by a Divine Favored and even stood against the Abyss, their state isn’t good."
During her reply, she quickly sent the current situation to Baiyi, she had fabricated too many lies, now she was struggling to maintain them.
The other party is a god...
Pageman’s eyes sank slightly, thoughts churning in his mind.
The Lord of Scarlet is definitely at the pinnacle among Ancient Gods, aside from Destiny with Great Divine Power, Ancient God, Plane God, and Evil God have at best Mighty Divine Power.
Xia was severely wounded, causing the entire world’s level to regress by millions of years.
But now Xia is recovering, what do those with mighty divine powers desperately flock to Xia for?
It’s for the position of the "One" with Great Divine Power that the gods speculate.
Once reaching that level, one can command all heavens and myriad realms, letting all worlds bask in the great radiance.
And as Xia is about to regain divine level, the Lord of Scarlet has deployed so many targeted measures, it’s quite intriguing.
"I understand, what did they want you to do?" Pageman calmly asked.
Moreover, if the one who created this special ghost is an Ancient God like the Lord of Scarlet, then it makes sense that he could not detect the connection.
"Asked... asked about my progress, to respond... Embrace of Suffering... and reprimanded me..."
Isis trembles as she speaks, her voice filled with fear, she quickly adds: "But I did not respond, the Lord of Scarlet does not have permission to control us easily, Your Excellency treats me well, I will not betray you."
"Us?" A sudden kill intent appeared in Pageman’s eyes, and the surrounding Nether Fog instantly condensed.
