"I am an emissary of the Star Alliance! Do you know your crime for binding the emissary of the Star Alliance?! "
Ma Dong laughed in disdain. If Leon was really an emissary of the Star Alliance, he would directly negotiate with the higher-ups of the Earth instead of choosing to cooperate with Hebre. He obviously did not have an official identity. Trespassing on the Earth was equivalent to trespassing on someone else's territory. Furthermore, when faced with an illegal trespasser, as long as the Earth was not afraid of the other party's private revenge, they had the right to execute him according to the laws of the Star Alliance!
Ma Dong did not speak, and the surroundings were silent.
Leon's expression changed again and again. The power of the Six-Pointed God-Trapping Chains continued to increase. The more he struggled, the tighter it became. Furthermore, it continuously absorbed his spiritual power and energy. Leon was almost unable to maintain his true form. Following Hebre's death, all the Earthlings present looked at him. Compared to their previous gazes, the gazes of these Earthlings had become fiery, bold, and aggressive!
Leon instantly understood. Bind? Capture?
Wrong. The other party had no intention of letting him go! If the Earthling called Ma Dong wanted to prevent traitors like Hebre from appearing on the Earth in the future, he had to push the Earth to the absolute opposite side of the Blood Demon Race so that the Earthlings would no longer dare to believe that the Blood Demon Race would really take them in. To achieve this, killing Leon, a member of the Blood Demon Race, was the best choice.
Leon was furious and terrified. He gathered all the remaining strength in his body and wanted to struggle again, but he could not do anything in front of the Six-Pointed God-Trapping Chains. The six Void Cores firmly controlled this combined artifact and bound him, allowing the artifact to slowly nibble away at his spiritual power and vitality …
The entire ruined square was quiet. From Hebre's death to Leon's long period of being nibbled away, no one spoke.
Everyone watched quietly and even trembled with fear as they digested the things and information they had seen. At the same time, when they looked at Ma Dong's face, which seemed to be as calm as an ancient well, all the Patriarchs, who had thought that they were only giving face to Wang Zhong and Wang Zhan Feng, trembled.
There was no doubt that Ma Dong had secretly nurtured these Void Cores. This unassuming young man already possessed such power, yet the entire Patriarch Society and even the entire Earth were kept in the dark?!
He had hidden himself too deeply and was frightening. No matter how he had set up traps in the square, he had easily taken the life of a Solid Core from the Blood Demon Race without any casualties. As long as he was willing, he could conquer the entire Earth and the entire Patriarch Society at any time!
The figure of the Blood Demon in the field gradually weakened, then became limp, from anger to fear to despair, and finally turned into a pile of mud …
The entire square was silent from beginning to end. Everyone just watched quietly.
Ma Dong only shot a glance at the pile of flesh and blood.
"Wang Zhong is the leader of the Earthlings. Although there are various rumors going around, in reality, his fate is unknown. We will do our best to maintain the situation and patiently wait for the most accurate news about Wang Zhong." "This is is" Earth. "This is Earth is the Earth," Ma said. "This is the life and Race Earth is, Alliance" "If there are any more traitors like Hebre, we will kill them without mercy!"
Wang Zhong did not know what was happening in the outside world. He was no longer at the Black Gold Town Mine, where he had fallen into the river. When he had just fallen into the Netherworld River, the fragment world had not closed and was connected to the Netherworld River. Thus, the entrance had flowed along with the river until the dragon cauldron showed its power and closed the fragment world again. At this time, he seemed to be closer to the Dragon's Head Shore. He could even see the streets of the Dragon's Head Shore from the river. However, unlike the bustling Dragon's Head Shore, the streets of the Dragon's Head Shore now looked much more deserted. It could even be said to be extremely quiet.
He did not know how long he had been unconscious in the fragment world, but it was probably not a short period of time. Otherwise, even with the help of elixirs, the transformation process from a Void Core to a Solid Core would take eight to ten days.
Could it be that Mu Zi had been here during this period? No, if Mu Zi had come to make a deal, the Dragon's Head Shore would only become more lively regardless of whether he left or not. How could it suddenly become deserted?
Lao Wang's first instinct was that something big had happened, so he went over to take a look.
To be precise, Lao Wang had disappeared for more than a month. At this time, it was a rare time of day in the underground world. The Netherworld River shone faintly, and the streets were deserted. There were very few pedestrians coming and going. At this time, Wang Zhong was still dressed as a Black Titan. Previously, when he walked around the Dragon's Head Shore with this disguised identity, he was very popular everywhere. However, at this time, the moment he appeared on the street, he saw a few pedestrians who were walking towards him in the distance. They were stunned when they saw him. Closely after, their expressions changed rapidly, and they turned to run without thinking. Not only those pedestrians, but a few shops in the surrounding streets that he knew from before immediately closed their doors when they saw Wang Zhong dressed as a Black Titan. At first, there were two or three people in the large street, but at this moment, it instantly became like a dead city. There was only the whistling of the cold wind and the leaves that kept spinning on the ground.
What the hell was going on?
Lao Wang became more and more suspicious. He wanted to capture someone to ask, but who in the Dragon's Head Shore could compare to Brewer in terms of being well-informed? It just so happened that he wanted to settle the score with him.
His figure flashed, and in just over ten seconds, he arrived at Brewer's residence on the Dragon's Head Shore street. He did not even need to knock on the door. His divine sense directly detected that the house was empty. Not only that, but looking at the dust on the table, it seemed that no one had entered the house for many days.
Wang Zhong's gaze focused slightly.
This was very abnormal. Brewer had helped the Ninth Shade Faction or the Blood Demon Race to pass false information to frame him. This was basically confirmed. Thus, he definitely knew that he had been 'killed' by the Ninth Shade Faction. Then why did he still run? Or did the Ninth Shade Faction or the Blood Demon Race kill him after the fact?
Lao Wang thought of something. His figure flashed slightly, and he directly went to the backyard of the Old Nissen Tavern.
Only one of the four people who lived in the backyard was left. It was obvious that the business had risen and fallen too quickly. Even the tavern owner had laid off his employees. The tavern seemed to be closed in the middle of the day, and the tavern owner was not around either. The waiter was leaning against the door of the small house in a daze. When he suddenly saw Wang Zhong descend from the sky, he was so scared that his legs trembled. A hot stream of urine instantly spurted out, wetting his pants. "Ghost — ghost!"
Wang Zhong was both angry and amused. There were people in the underground world who were afraid of ghosts?
"I don't have much time." He threw a Gold Star Star in front of the waiter. To make this kind of person obedient, candy and whips were necessary. "Why has the Dragon's Head Shore become like this? Why are you afraid of me? Also, what has happened recently, especially those related to the Netherworld King. Tell me everything you know. If you hesitate even for a moment … "
Wang Zhong's cold gaze swept across the waiter's neck, causing the waiter to instantly shiver. He felt a chill on his entire neck. "I — I'll talk! I'll talk! "
It looked very messy, but in reality, the matter was not complicated.
About a month ago, the Netherworld King appeared in Black Gold Town and killed an almighty Gold Core expert and dozens of disciples from the Ninth Shade Faction. It was said that he was avenging his companion. Then, the news that Wang Zhong had disguised himself as the Black Titan and was killed by Elder Hades from the Ninth Shade Faction while heading to Black Gold Town also spread. Everyone suddenly realized that the Black Titan was actually an Earthling. Furthermore, he was Wang Zhong from the Celestial Honors Class, who was currently in the limelight in the Land. The Netherworld King claimed to be from Earth, so he was obviously from the same race as Wang Zhong. Since his own race was killed by the Ninth Shade Faction, the Netherworld King was furious and killed the almighty Gold Core expert from the Ninth Shade Faction.
Wang Zhong finally understood why Brewer did not want to see him. Of course, he was sure that Wang Zhong was already 'dead'. He did not run away because he was afraid of Wang Zhong, but because he was afraid of the Netherworld King! What a joke. If the Netherworld King was angry, even the almighty Gold Core expert from the Ninth Shade Faction who was involved in this matter would be instantly killed. Who was Brewer? He was just an ant that the Netherworld King could crush at will. Thus, of course, he had to run away and hide far away. He would not dare to return to the Dragon's Head Shore for the rest of his life, let alone in the near future.
"Was the Gold Core who was killed Elder Hades from the Ninth Shade Faction?"
"I'm not too sure … I don't think so. I heard that it was an elder with the surname Mu. He happened to be from the same race as Elder Musin, who was killed by the Netherworld King. Master Hei, you don't know … "The shop assistant had already gotten used to calling him Master Hei." If this matter had stopped at that time, it would have been fine. However, after the Netherworld King killed Elder Mu and dozens of disciples from the Ninth Shade Faction who were working in Black Gold Town, he still felt that it was not enough. Thus, he directly went to the Ninth Shade Faction. "
Wang Zhong was slightly dumbfounded. Then, his expression became extremely grave.
He was not worried that Mu Zi would be at a disadvantage in the Ninth Shade Faction. With his understanding of Mu Zi, he would not do anything that he was not confident in. Furthermore, since he could easily kill two almighty Gold Cores in succession, Mu Zi's strength was probably beyond his imagination. However, the problem was that he could sense that Mu Zi's murderous nature was too strong … It was far beyond Mu Zi's normal state. Was it because of the influence of the Netherworld River? If that was the case, the influence was probably no longer at the level of a minor illness. It was already very serious.
However, the shop assistant's saliva flew everywhere as he spoke, and his eyebrows danced with joy. It was as if he had personally witnessed the battle between the Netherworld King and the Ninth Shade Faction. "The Ninth Shade Faction happens to be close to the source of the Netherworld River. Two days ago, the Netherworld King went there. I heard that even the entire Netherworld River became violent. Endless Netherworld River was drawn by the Netherworld King, and the water flooded the Ninth Shade Faction! Tsk tsk tsk, that was Netherworld River water! Ordinary people would get injured if they sniffed it for a while, and they would die if they touched it even a little! However, the entire Ninth Shade Faction was directly submerged by the Netherworld River. The Merak Ninth Shade Mountain Protection Array that they used to protect their faction was completely useless in the face of this monstrous Netherworld River water. Countless disciples died or were injured. More than a dozen almighty Gold Cores in the Faction attacked together, but in the end, the Netherworld King killed five of them. Those were almighty Gold Cores, almighty Gold Cores! Oh my god, it has been many years since such a major incident has happened in the underground world … "
Five Gold Cores were killed, and the Ninth Shade Faction was destroyed …
Even Lao Wang could not help but gasp. Mu Zi's actions were simply too big …
"The Ninth Shade Faction suffered heavy casualties. I heard that other than some disciples who were originally not in the Faction, almost none of the others managed to escape. Only a few almighty Gold Cores had a certain level of resistance to the Netherworld River water. Even so, they fled in a sorry state and managed to preserve their lives. However, all of them were seriously injured, and no one knows where they hid. This time, the Ninth Shade Faction has been completely destroyed. Even their faction has been destroyed. "
"The underground world has been in a mess for the past few days. Uncle Hei, you know that these top Factions in the underground world are like the great forces in the Land. They all established their Factions near the nodes of the Netherworld River, and there is plenty of Netherworld energy there. Originally, this was a good thing, but the Netherworld King caused the Netherworld River to flood the Ninth Shade Faction. Now, all the major Factions are in a state of panic, and they are afraid that the Netherworld King will do the same to their Factions. This is really frightening. He can mobilize the power of the Netherworld River. As long as the Netherworld King stands beside the Netherworld River, who in the world can resist him? The other two major Factions that are connected to the Ninth Shade Faction are so scared that they quietly moved away. I heard that many important core disciples have been moved away, and they no longer dare to stay in their Factions … "
The waiter talked incessantly. Following that, it was just some unimportant gossip.
Lao Wang directly interrupted him. "What about the Netherworld King?"
"No one knows. After the battle with the Ninth Shade Faction, the Netherworld King seemed to have disappeared. I heard that all the major Factions are reporting to the Star Alliance. Such a major event has happened in the underground world, and the Star Alliance will definitely intervene. Sigh, the last time the Star Alliance intervened in the underground world was two eras ago … "
It was obvious that he could not get any more information from this shop assistant. Lao Wang had no intention of talking more with him. In a flash, he disappeared without a trace.
There was definitely a problem with Mu Zi, and it was a big problem.
When he met with Grai at Old Cow's place last time, he did not hear much about the will of the Netherworld River. At that moment, thinking about it carefully, when Grai introduced the power of the Netherworld River that they cultivated, he would always intentionally or unintentionally mention the dangers of the Netherworld River. Other than him and Mu Zi, no one else could touch it. At that time, as his focus was not on this, Lao Wang did not feel that there was anything special about it. But now, he could acutely determine that there was definitely a problem with Mu Zi at that time. However, the situation should not be as serious as it was now.
He should have been vigilant and reminded Grai a long time ago. In this world, there was balance in everything. How could there be power that could be easily obtained? Furthermore, Mu Zi had the ability to directly kill an almighty Gold Core. There was definitely a price to pay for this kind of power, and it was definitely a rather heavy price.
Furthermore, since the Netherworld King incident had escalated from killing a Gold Core to destroying the entire Ninth Shade Faction, it was imperative for the Star Alliance to intervene forcefully. Once the Star Alliance took action …
He had to find Mu Zi as soon as possible. No matter what Mu Zi was facing now, he had to think of a way to help him get through this difficult time. At the very least, he had to face it with him.
There was no news or clues. The whereabouts of the Netherworld King had long become a mystery.
The entire underground world was secretly looking for the Netherworld King. To others, this might be a difficult problem that could not be solved, but to Wang Zhong, it was not completely impossible. He just happened to have the best method in the world to find someone.
The bronze mirror!
Other than the dried bloodstains, there was nothing else in the blood-stained camp. The corpses of the Ninth Shade Faction who had died here had long been cleaned up by some people. There was no one nearby.
In an abandoned mine not far from here, Wang Zhong sat upright. He placed the bronze mirror on his knees and poured spiritual power into it.
After advancing from the Void Core Realm to the Solid Core Realm, it was obviously much easier to control this bronze mirror. In fact, he could no longer feel the active absorption power of the bronze mirror. However, Lao Wang calmly channeled spiritual power into the bronze mirror, and it quickly opened.
In the dimension of nothingness, the dark underground world seemed extremely gloomy and gloomy. There was only a faintly discernible figure that was connected to Lao Wang's karma link. He stood alone in the boundless darkness of the underground world and was extremely eye-catching.
Was that … Grai? Why was he alone? Where was Mu Zi?
Lao Wang's heart was ice-cold. He had already tested the power and effects of the bronze mirror twice. Unless Mu Zi was not in the underground world at all, there was no reason why he could not see him. Furthermore, how could Grai not be with Mu Zi?
"Grai."
Wang Zhong tried to call out to Grai, but as soon as he said the first syllable, a terrifying power immediately intervened and forcefully cut off the world that the bronze mirror was showing. Wang Zhong was directly ejected from the world that the bronze mirror was showing. He did not even feel that he had established any connection with Grai.
It was the same power as last time. However, this time, it was even more tyrannical and gloomy than the mysterious power from last time!
If it was in the past, Lao Wang would definitely not be able to recognize what exactly this was. However, after coming into contact with the Netherworld River for such a long period of time, and with the help of the Dragon Cauldron's power from the Netherworld River, Lao Wang was simply too familiar with the aura of the Netherworld River. It was exactly the same as this mysterious power.
This was the will of the Netherworld River, and it was affecting Mu Zi. In fact, it might have even replaced Mu Zi's soul. That was simply terrible. If not, it was impossible for him to not discover Mu Zi's existence through the bronze mirror.
However, the other party's location had been exposed. It should be the Hell Island in the underground world!
The Hell Island was one of the three known dangerous places in the underground world.
At that moment, there was no doubt that 'Mu Zi' was traveling with him. If not, when he tried to contact Grai, the mysterious power would not have sensed him so easily and forcefully cut off his connection with the artifact.
It was a dangerous place because it was truly 'dangerous'. Other than the Netherworld King and his messenger, who were currently in the limelight, no one in the underground world had the experience of entering the Hell Island and coming out alive, at least not in this era. Not to mention coming out alive, it was extremely difficult to even reach there.
The so-called deepest part of the Netherworld River did not refer to the source of the Netherworld River.
In terms of the topography of the underground world, the Netherworld River flowed from the center of the underground world and became its source at the place where the Heavenly River flowed backwards. The 'network' of the Netherworld River spread throughout the entire underground world. In the end, it converged into the massive Netherworld Sea that occupied one-third of the underground world. Meanwhile, the Hell Island was in the depths of the massive Netherworld Sea.
Perhaps it was because a quantitative change had caused a qualitative change, or perhaps it was because it had accumulated over a long period of time, but the invasion of the Netherworld aura in the Netherworld Sea was on a completely different level from that of the ordinary Netherworld River. It was simply too unfriendly to living beings.
…
The Netherworld Sea City was the last strategic city that was close to the end of the underground world. More than ten tributaries of the Netherworld River converged here, and the entire strategic city seemed to be surrounded by the endless Netherworld River. Furthermore, there was the Endless Netherworld Sea that caused the expressions of everyone in the underground world to change when they heard about it.
Thus, the Netherworld Sea City was filled with dense Netherworld aura and Netherworld pressure all year round. The spiritual pressure and gravity here were much greater than that of the few large Factions at the source of the Netherworld River. Lao Wang even felt that even the Internal Gates of the Heavenly Gates did not have such exaggerated spiritual pressure and gravity. Thus, even though it was one of the most famous strategic cities in the underground world, the population of the Netherworld Sea City was pitifully small.
There were only about 40,000 to 50,000 permanent residents in this city, and the floating population was between 20,000 to 30,000. There was no choice. Those who could withstand the spiritual pressure and gravity here were at least experts at the Solid Core Realm, and there were even many almighty Gold Cores in this city. Void Cores? Unless he was a heaven-defying Void Core like Lao Wang, it was simply impossible for him to withstand the spiritual pressure and gravity here, let alone the ghostly wails and wolf howls that came from the Netherworld River and Netherworld Sea, which were like the roars of mountains and tsunamis at all times.
The transmission field here was usually relatively deserted. It was considered not bad to have two to three thousand people in a day. However, at that moment, Lao Wang had just walked out of the transmission array when he saw that all the transmission arrays in the entire transmission field were continuously shining with light. A large number of people were coming and going from the transmission field.
The Firegold Race, the Earth Demon Race, the Kamosi Race, the Three-Eyed Race, the Flare Race, and so on were almost all the top races in the underground world. They also represented the various top Factions. Even the Three Major Factions, whose prestige in the underground world had recently plummeted and were in an extremely sorry state, frequently appeared in this transmission field.
So many elites from the Land had gathered here. Could it be that they had discovered Mu Zi's whereabouts?
Lao Wang walked out of the transmission array. His identity as a Black Titan was only known to those who were familiar with him at the Dragon's Head Shore. At that moment, he did not attract too much attention. He only heard the buzzing noise in the transmission field. From time to time, he heard news and words related to the Netherworld King. Furthermore, the most special piece of news was the intervention of the Star Alliance in the Land.
"The Star Alliance has allowed the Heavenly Gates to intervene in this matter. Currently, they have issued an S-level Celestial Honors Mission in the Heavenly Gates. As long as the news of the Netherworld King's location is confirmed, an S-level Celestial Honors Team will immediately be dispatched."
"The Star Alliance did not send a large army, but sent a small team of Heavenly Gates pupils?"
"After all, it is very likely that the Netherworld King has already entered the depths of the Netherworld Sea. Even if they send a large army, they will not be able to enter. Furthermore, what do you think a Celestial Honors Team is? Although they are pupils of the Heavenly Gates, Celestial Honors Masters who can accept S-level missions are already experts who stand at the peak of the Land. All of them are king-level Gold Cores. If there is something that even they cannot handle, I'm afraid that the entire Star Alliance will not be able to handle it. "
"There's no need to doubt it. If a Celestial Honors Team is dispatched, they will definitely bring along a supra artifact from the Heavenly Gates. No matter how strong the Netherworld King is, he will be defeated."
"Now, we just need to confirm the Netherworld King's location. Every time he commits a crime, he will definitely return to the depths of the Netherworld Sea. Now, there are a large number of Faction disciples monitoring the various confluences of the Netherworld River, and the Netherworld Sea City has the most. As long as we find the accurate traces and location of the Netherworld King and report it to the Star Alliance, it will be a great contribution. "
"Let's not talk about great contributions. We just hope that the Star Alliance can completely get rid of the Netherworld King this time. He was able to destroy the Ninth Shade Faction with his own strength. Furthermore, he is so bloodthirsty and tyrannical that he wants to destroy an entire Faction over a small matter … If such a terrifying existence does not die, no one will be able to live in peace! Being in the same era as such a terrifying existence really makes one feel terrified and uneasy. "
The sounds of discussion in the surroundings could not be concealed. It was obvious that the entire underground world had been frightened by the Netherworld King. Even the Ninth Shade Faction, one of the Three Major Factions, had completely fallen at the feet of the Netherworld King. Who from the other Factions would not be afraid? Now, everyone in the underground world was in a state of panic, but they hoped that the Star Alliance could get rid of this terrifying existence as soon as possible. The relationship between the underground world and the Land had always been like this. When they did not need each other, they did not see eye to eye with each other. The underground world could not wait for the Star Alliance to ignore them. However, whenever they encountered a major problem that the Factions in the underground world could not solve, they still had to seek help from the Star Alliance.
The overall strength of the underground world was still far from that of the Star Alliance. Firstly, the resources in the underground world were insufficient. The Netherworld energy was different from spiritual energy, and not everyone could come into contact with it and cultivate it. Furthermore, the environment was harsh. Although it could create some soldiers who were extremely good at fighting, the excessive killings limited the number of experts. There might be many Void Cores and Solid Cores here, but they were like leeks that were cut in batches.
True Gold Core experts, especially those extremely powerful king-level Gold Cores, were few in number. Although their combat power was strong, the problem was that the secret of their great power, especially the secret of the Heaven, was in the hands of the Star Alliance. This was absolute suppression.
Lao Wang furrowed his eyebrows slightly when he heard a few words from the side.
As expected, the Star Alliance had intervened. Although the various great powers in the Land regarded these people from the underground world as' rats' hiding in the dark, the entire underground world was continuously providing various resources for the Land. The Star Alliance definitely did not want to see the underground world go out of control, and they definitely could not sit back and do nothing. Furthermore, they acted swiftly and decisively. Directly sending out a Celestial Honors Team was the best proof.
As a member of the Celestial Honors Class, Lao Wang understood what the so-called Celestial Honors Team was about. Only top pupils like Senior Lavel and Senior Yan Moyu had the qualifications to accept S-level missions. They were all king-level Gold Cores who were preparing to cross the Heavenly River Tide. Any one of them would at least have the strength of a core elder of a top power. Furthermore, the S-level Celestial Honors Team formed by them would have at least five people. This was a power that could move unhindered in the Land, and it also represented the greatest importance that the Star Alliance placed on this matter.
There was a very important point here. In the Land, Gold Cores did not become stronger the longer they lived. Generally speaking, the longer they lived, the deeper their understanding would be. However, due to the restrictions of the laws in the Land, once they reached the peak, their combat power would stagnate, and their endurance would definitely decrease unless they entered the Heaven. However, the Heaven did not want those who were too old. There had never been anyone in history who could surpass the Gold Core Stage in the Land. Furthermore, the Gold Cores of the Celestial Honors Team were the truly outstanding ones. They had unlimited futures and powerful combat power.
Of course, in daily life, they had to give their seniors some respect. Wang Zhong was not very clear about Mu Zi's specific strength, but based on the achievements of destroying the Ninth Shade Faction, a Celestial Honors Team was completely capable of doing so. More importantly, through the Machinery Race, Wang Zhong was very clear about how terrifying and colossal the Star Alliance was. The power that they controlled was not something that the underground world could contend against. He had to think of a way to resolve this matter before the Celestial Honors Team intervened. If not, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The Netherworld Sea City was different from ordinary cities in the underground world. Although the city was slightly spacious, most of the buildings were extremely imposing and majestic. The city walls here were also abnormally tall and covered with runes and secret techniques. They shone with a black light and aura.
This was to resist the Netherworld River. In the history of the underground world, there were very few records of the Netherworld River erupting, but the phenomenon of the Netherworld Sea rising tide was very common. Thus, as long as it was an important town beside the Netherworld Sea, tall defensive walls were a must. The unique construction materials of the walls and the defensive runes were extremely effective in resisting the impact of the Netherworld River.
Lao Wang did not stay in the Netherworld Sea City. After leaving the transmission area, he directly rushed to the Netherworld Sea outside the city. He could see the endless tributaries of the Netherworld River continuously converging in this direction from all directions. In the end, they converged into the endless Netherworld Sea. There were many sentry towers and sentry posts set up on the Netherworld Sea. There were also various water level measuring instruments arranged on the Netherworld Sea beach.
It was said that the area of the Netherworld Sea was gradually expanding inland at a slow speed every year. According to normal calculations, the Netherworld Sea City, which was 30 kilometers away, should still be able to exist for about 300 years. However, in recent months, the Netherworld Sea had clearly accelerated its pace of expansion, which was two to three times faster than its previous expansion speed. Now, the sentry posts and water level measuring instruments were densely spread along the coast, as if they were facing a great enemy. In addition to the sentry posts that various powers had set up here to detect the Netherworld King, the Netherworld Sea beach could be considered to be bustling.
Putting aside the various hidden sentries, one could directly see a few relatively large camps set up on the beach that was only a few dozen meters away from the Netherworld Sea. Most of them were people from various Factions, and there were also some merchants. Lao Wang chose the largest camp and walked over.
When they saw a Black Titan walking over from afar, many people in the camp stopped to watch. Most of the merchants had smiles on their faces. Any businessman would like a rich man like the Black Titan. However, they did not expect that the Black Titans, who had always been interested in money, would also participate in the Netherworld King's matters. Many of these Black Titans' mines were beside the Netherworld River. It was probably because of the incident with the Ninth Shade Faction that they were afraid and felt a deep pain.
"Brother Black, I have top-quality Yin and Yang Pills here. You can choose 80% and 90% pills. As long as you can offer a price, I can even help you get 100% perfect pills."
"Heh heh. Brother, don't be mistaken. One look and you can tell that this Brother Black is an expert. If he dares to come here, would he lack Yin and Yang Pills?" Someone beside him laughed and said, "Look at me. I have a set of Fire Silkworm Silk Armor, which is a level-6 artifact refined by an expert in the Land. It is immune to all poisons, and its defense is astonishing. It is enough to resist the interference of the Netherworld aura. With this set of armor, you do not need to use any Yin and Yang Pills at all. "
The expression of the person who had just sold the pills darkened slightly. This Black Titan had gone too far in stealing his business. However, before he could flare up, he saw that the Black Titan did not pay attention to that person at all. He simply stood in the middle of the camp and calmly asked his surroundings, "Are there any boats that can enter the Netherworld River?"
Go to sea?
Many people in the camp were instantly dumbfounded and suspected that they had heard wrongly.
The Netherworld River was already a taboo in the underground world. Those who were not almighty Gold Cores or experts with special treasures could not touch it. As for the Netherworld Sea, even these almighty Gold Cores viewed it as a taboo. Going out to sea? Normal people had never heard of such a thing. It was usually something that lunatics who were either tired of living or wanted to break through their limits would do.
No one around the camp replied. However, there were deep gazes in the tents of a few large Factions that did not pay attention to what was happening outside.
Lao Wang furrowed his eyebrows and asked a second time.
The group of peddlers looked at each other in dismay before one of them stood up and said, "Master Hei, are you making fun of us? I have never heard of anyone selling Netherworld boats in the Netherworld River. "
Lao Wang knew that there were indeed no such things. Even if there were exceptions, there were very, very few of them. Lao Wang was just thinking about trying his luck. At that moment, he took a step back and asked, "Are there any artifacts that can travel in the Netherworld River?"
"… No." The surrounding merchants shook their heads.
"Since when did the Black Titan care about money more than his life?" A voice sounded from a tent on the left. "You're quite courageous."
This voice had an imposing aura that commanded all living beings. It was obvious that he had been in a high position for a long time and had tyrannical strength.
The entire camp instantly quietened down. When they looked at the tent where the voice came from, they saw a black flame-shaped tent. It belonged to the Profound Fire Faction, which was once one of the Three Great Factions in the underground world.
As soon as the voice sounded, a humanoid creature with six arms and eight eyes walked out of the tent. A monstrous black flame spread naturally from his body, and the pressure that he emitted was not inferior to the pressure of the Netherworld Sea.
"It's Elder Bayan from the Profound Fire Faction!"
"Elder Bayan has been in this camp all this time? We didn't even notice! "Many people around him deliberately suppressed their exclamations, and they looked surprised.
The Profound Fire Faction and the Ninth Shade Faction were one of the Three Great Factions, and they had always been on the same side. In the underground world, most of the forces' attention should be focused on the Netherworld King, but very few people cared about Wang Zhong from the Heavenly Gates, who caused this incident. After all, everyone knew that he had died in the hands of Elder Hades, and there was no need to continue to pay attention to him. Only the Three Great Factions had some inside information and knew that Wang Zhong had fallen into the Netherworld River, and no one knew whether he was dead or alive.
It was not a secret that the underground world was the garbage dump of the Star Alliance. Basically, the underground world did everything that was difficult for the higher-ups to deal with. Even if Wang Zhong died, they would not make a big deal out of it. In fact, the leader of a level-4.5 civilization was not a big deal at all, not to mention the Blood Demon Race. It was just that they did not expect another Earthling to become the "Netherworld King" and massacre the Ninth Shade Faction. This was in accordance with the unwritten rules of the Star Alliance, and the CHC would naturally punish this so-called Netherworld King.
It had been a long time since such a big event had happened in the underground world. All the powerful Factions were now in a state of "excitement". The Ninth Shade Faction had been destroyed, but because the Netherworld King was still around, no one had touched this cake yet. However, as long as the CHC took action, the underground world's "chaotic times" would begin. All the Gold Core and Void Core experts were actually in a state of preparation for war. They might even be able to figure out the Netherworld King's secret.
Bayan was in charge of this area, but he did not expect to unexpectedly sense a powerful force. Furthermore, it was obvious that it did not belong to the underground world. His ability allowed him to spy on others with his soul, and camouflage was useless in front of him. What surprised him even more was that Wang Zhong, who was definitely going to die, had actually appeared in front of him.
The Netherworld King had stood up for Wang Zhong, allowing Wang Zhong's information to be widely spread underground. This person was very influential in the Heavenly Gates and had the support of many big shots. If not, he would not have tormented the veteran Blood Demon Race and even the Fire Demon Race to such an extent that they had no choice but to stake everything on this.
The problem was, was Wang Zhong still alive? Didn't this mean that there was a turning point in everything? This was not in line with the interests of the Profound Fire Faction. After this incident, the Profound Fire Faction had hopes of becoming the most powerful force in the underground world, so it was better for him to die.
Furthermore, the Netherworld Absorption Technique that he cultivated could devour life and even souls. The more delicious, the better. As a CHC, Wang Zhong definitely had a top-notch soul. In any case, the Ninth Shade Faction had to take the blame, so how could he miss such a delicacy? That would be a reckless waste of resources!
"What a coward. Do you have the guts to hide in the tent?" Along the way, Wang Zhong had already learned about the situation in the underground world. Since this person was an elder of the Profound Fire Faction, he definitely did not want Wang Zhong to 'resurrect' from the dead. Since they were going to fight anyway, Elder Bayan had a long reputation in the underground world and was comparable to Elder Hades of the Ninth Shade Faction. Wang Zhong could use him to test his Solid Core strength! Therefore, he mocked Wang Zhong.
"You've got guts!"
There was a sudden roar in the tent, and then the whole tent exploded with a loud bang. A black light flashed, and the figure standing in the dark light turned his hand, and then a spiral of dark light appeared. Suddenly, a strange black Qi was produced, and instantly, the surrounding area was filled with a few miles of black Qi!
Many disciples from the Faction suddenly changed their expressions. The strange black gas actually had a strong absorption effect. Being in it, everyone felt that the power in their bodies was being rapidly extracted.
Nether Absorption and Rotation Technique!
Within the range of the black gas was the domain of this Nether Absorption and Rotation Technique. It would constantly extract the vitality of all living creatures and nourish the caster, making the enemy weaker and the caster stronger. Elder Bayan was known as the best Gold Core in the underground world because of this technique!
The disciples and merchants around did not expect Elder Bayan to attack so suddenly. Furthermore, his attack was such a large-scale attack, completely disregarding the other disciples in the camp. The Nether Absorption and Rotation Technique did not distinguish between friend and foe. At this time, everyone was scared out of their wits and fled in all directions. They only stopped after retreating more than ten miles away from the range of the black gas. In just an instant, only Wang Zhong and Bayan were left in the entire camp.
The corners of Elder Bayan's mouth curled up slightly. To use the Nether Absorption and Rotation Technique as soon as he attacked, he really did not think highly of Wang Zhong. Wang Zhong was just a rookie who could not even take three moves from Elder Hades of the Ninth Shade Faction. What qualifications did he have to be taken seriously? He just wanted to drive away all the annoying flies around him. After all, Wang Zhong's identity was very sensitive. Although many people in the underground world wanted him dead, there were really not many who dared to attack him openly. What a joke. The Ninth Shade Faction had learned their lesson. Even if they did not care about the roar from the Heavenly Gates, they would still be afraid that the Netherworld King would come looking for trouble with the Ninth Shade Faction. Now, Earthlings were a taboo in the underground world. As long as the Netherworld King was alive, no one dared to touch them openly.
