"Brother Feng, I have an urgent matter that I need your help with." The person who broke through the void was Zhu Ming. He looked at Feng San anxiously.
"Brother Zhu? You are … "Feng San hesitated. He did not expect Zhu Ming to appear so suddenly, and in such a manner. Although breaking through the void could allow one to travel thousands of miles in an instant, it took a lot of energy to do so. Unless it was a matter of life and death, ghost immortals would not use it easily.
Zhu Ming, on the other hand, looked anxious. "Brother Feng, may I ask where the three people who entered the Underworld the last time are now …" He stopped mid-sentence. Then, he saw Shen Ying and the others standing at the side. His eyes brightened and he immediately turned and cupped his fists. "That's great. Everyone is here. Mother Feng … Something happened to Mother Feng. "
"What happened to her?" Lonemoon stepped forward and asked, shocked.
"I don't know what happened either. Her soul suddenly became very unstable." Zhu Ming's expression was one of panic. He scanned the area before his gaze landed on Shen Ying. "Exalted Goddess, please save Mother Feng." He had already noticed that this Exalted Goddess Shen's cultivation level was not as low as it seemed on the surface. If anyone could save Mother Feng, it would be them. He had no other choice, which was why he had come here.
Shen Ying and Lonemoon exchanged a look. They decided to go and take a look. After all, the fact that they were missing a remnant soul probably had something to do with Mother Feng.
"Let's go and take a look at Mother Feng first," Lonemoon instructed Feng San and Long Zhen. "I'll have to trouble you two Divine Supremacies to go to the Ling Tai Mountain and ask about the remnant soul first."
The two of them looked at them worriedly. "But you …" Feng San looked confused. He did not understand why Zhu Ming did not come here to ask for his help, but to look for his son's seemingly weak master. He wanted to stop them, but Long Zhen glared at him. He swallowed his words.
"Thank you, everyone." Seeing that they had agreed, Zhu Ming hurriedly thanked them. Then, he anxiously led them across the void.
The few of them felt their vision darken. The next moment, they found themselves in the Underworld. Ghostly Qi filled the air, and wandering souls were everywhere. In front of them was an unfamiliar palace surrounded by thick Yin Qi. It was obvious that this was Zhu Ming's residence.
However, half of the originally tall hall had collapsed. From time to time, sharp and ear-piercing screams could be heard, and the red light of the array formation could be faintly seen inside.
"Mother Feng is inside," Zhu Ming said anxiously as he led everyone in.
Only then did they see that the inside of the hall had been destroyed even more severely. There were broken walls everywhere, and only a Restrictive Array Formation was lit up at the very center. The person in the formation was Mother Feng. She had reverted to her crazy self and was attacking the formation that trapped her. Her eyes were bloodshot and her face was contorted in pain.
More importantly, there were nine Mother Fengs in the formation, and from time to time, they would let out cries of resentment, hatred, and anger. The force of their attacks on the formation was getting stronger and stronger, and the formation was on the verge of collapsing.
"Mother Feng!" Zhu Ming exclaimed. He immediately went forward and conjured a seal to stabilize the array.
"Her soul was split!" Lonemoon was shocked. He turned to look at Zhu Ming. "What happened?" Logically speaking, souls should be connected to each other. As long as they weren't in the Soul-splitting Formation, they should be able to gather together. Why did Mother Feng seem to be getting more and more scattered?
"I don't know either. She suddenly became like this. No matter what I did, her soul could not gather together. I could only trap her here, "Zhu Ming explained as he set up the array. He looked at Shen Ying pleadingly. "I had no choice but to trouble all of you. Last time, all of you were able to destroy the Soul-splitting Formation. Can you tell what happened to Mother Feng this time? "
Lonemoon frowned. "We can't tell what happened to her either." Mother Feng was different from Chef and the others. What she lacked was a primary soul, not a remnant soul.
Zhu Ming looked disappointed. He became even more anxious.
Inside the array, Mother Feng's attacks were getting weaker and weaker. Perhaps she was tired, or perhaps her scattered soul could no longer withstand the torment. But the shrill cries were getting louder and louder. They seemed to be filled with hatred and indignation. Every word reverberated in the eerie Underworld.
"I hate you! Why did you do this to me! Why?! "
"Heaven Fall Yellow Springs, to be together forever. Hahahaha … liars, all liars!"
"I won't die! I won't die! Even if I become a ghost forever and never reincarnate, I will drag you down to hell with me! "
"The Great Dao is heartless. Cutting off one's emotions to gain enlightenment is all a lie. Give me back my life! Give it back to me!"
The cries were getting louder and louder. Suddenly, black Qi appeared around Mother Feng's translucent soul. It did not look like the Yin Qi of a ghost immortal, nor did it look like demonic Qi. It was filled with anger, as if it wanted to destroy everything in its path.
"Grievous energy!" Zhu Ming's eyes widened in disbelief. "How … how is this possible?" Although those who were able to cultivate to the level of Ghost Immortal had died with great resentment, this was the Underworld. The Yin River of the Underworld would take away all the resentment of ghosts, preventing them from falling into madness. Therefore, Ghost Immortals would not easily leave the Underworld. But Mother Feng's soul had already split. Why would she still have so much grievous energy?
Zhu Ming's eyes widened. Suddenly, he thought of something. His face turned even paler. "Could it be … that she still can't let it go?"
"There's one less soul inside," Xuan Tong suddenly exclaimed.
Everyone was shocked. They turned around to take a closer look. Indeed, only eight of the original nine Mother Feng were left. The grievous energy around the soul was getting stronger and stronger. In a short while, all five of them were covered in a thick, black grievous energy. It was gathering towards the center, as if some invisible force was pulling it apart.
"Grievous energy gathering souls," Bai Ze said in shock. The grievous energy was gathering her scattered souls.
"No, Mother Feng will be swallowed by the grievous energy." Zhu Ming looked even more worried. He conjured a few hand seals, but there was no reaction.
On the other side, Mother Feng's scattered souls had completely gathered together. The raging cries had also stopped. Mother Feng was dressed in a long black robe. Her hair was messy as she stood in the middle of the array. Two streaks of bloody tears flowed down her cheeks.
She suddenly quietened down. Her madness was gone. They did not know if it was an illusion, but the red light in her eyes seemed to have grown brighter. His eyes were fixed on this side. Suddenly, he grinned and revealed a sinister smile.
"Mother Feng …" Zhu Ming subconsciously took a step forward.
The smile on Mother Feng's face widened until the corners of her mouth reached her ears. Her eyes bulged so much that they looked like they were about to pop out of her eye sockets. A creepy laugh suddenly sounded. "Hehehehe … You're an accomplice too. All of you deserve to die. Give me back my life, will you … Little Junior Brother? "
"You … remember?" Zhu Ming's eyes widened. He froze.
Mother Feng waved her sleeves. The grievous energy filled the air, accompanied by shrill cries, rushed towards Zhu Ming. Even the Yin Qi around them was pushed back. It looked like it was about to swallow Zhu Ming whole.
"Zhu Ming!" Lonemoon exclaimed. He sent a beam of sword Qi at Zhu Ming, pushing him away. That was how he managed to avoid the grievous energy. The ground rumbled. The palace that was already in ruins was now a pile of rubble.
