In the gloomy Underworld World, a group of one-eyed ghosts wandered the desolate land in a daze.
With a single eye and a wooden club in their hands, these ugly ghosts that did not cover their bodies were the native creatures of the Guizhou Continent's Underworld. When the overlord of the Underworld, the Giant Spirit Ghosts, died, their blood fused with the Underworld, forming a large group of so-called "one-eyed ghosts". Although a one-eyed ghost was very weak and only had the power of an Exuvia, these one-eyed ghosts were superior in their unity. However, these one-eyed ghosts were united. They gathered together based on the same bloodline and formed a tribe to fight against other ghosts.
Every tribe meant the death of a Giant Spirit Ghost. The one-eyed ghosts inherited the bloodline of the Giant Spirit Ghost. In the future, as the tribe gradually grew stronger, a mutated one-eyed ghost would be born from within and devour all the clansmen, turning into a new Giant Spirit Ghost.
Life and death, the cycle was endless. The Giant Spirit Ghost turned into one-eyed ghosts, then into Giant Spirit Ghost again. In this cycle, the one-eyed ghosts became the main target of River Styx's navy.
When the one-eyed ghosts stepped into the trap set up earlier, a red light suddenly exploded, and ten ghost soldiers jumped out from a small hill not far away.
"Kill …" Wu Zhe led his team and transformed the Emerald Blood Spear in his hand into "long-range form", shooting out rays of emerald light from the spearhead.
The one-eyed ghosts were trapped in the trap, and the surrounding ghostly aura was like mud, making it difficult for them to move. As the emerald light shone, their companions fell one by one.
When the remaining one-eyed ghosts saw this, they immediately screamed, calling their companions from afar.
"Quick, let's kill these people before they meet up." Wu Zhe saw the scattered one-eyed ghosts running over from afar, and quickly led his companions to clear the ghosts in the trap. Long-range attacks turned into hand-to-hand combat. Spears pierced through the one-eyed ghosts' chests, and black blood splattered on the Underworld Earth. It was almost impossible to distinguish the soil from the blood.
When the one-eyed ghosts' reinforcements arrived, the ghosts in the trap were also cleared. Wu Zhe led his men to fight them again …
After a bitter battle, their ten-man team finally killed all the one-eyed ghosts.
Wu Zhe heaved a sigh of relief and sized up his comrades. After this battle, although they had armor made by Long Yuan to protect them, a few of them were injured.
He opened his mouth and said, "Brothers, let's work harder. Let's first make an altar for Her Majesty and get rid of these one-eyed ghosts."
Everyone dragged their tired bodies and dug up the soil of the Underworld nearby, piling it up into a square platform that was about seven feet tall. Then, Wu Zhe placed a piece of black jade on the altar and muttered something.
Not long after, a faint blue radiance lit up from the black jade and slowly flew into the sky. When the blue light turned golden, a divine power suddenly descended from the sky. With the altar as the core, the nearby dead One-Eyed Ghosts were devoured by this power. They were all transformed into Black Water, forming a watery swamp.
"You've done well." The Black Water surged out and fused with the soldiers' bodies. The injured soldiers were immediately healed, and Wu Zhe stepped into the Ghost Immortal Realm under the stimulation of this power.
"Your Majesty!" The warrior knelt down with his companions. The dark clouds in the sky dispersed, revealing a heavenly palace with a golden and jade radiance. The reflection of a king appeared in the swamp.
"Wu Zhe, your Ghost Core has just been condensed, so it's not stable yet. Go and kill the entire tribe of One-Eyed Ghosts and search for the origin of the Giant Spirit Ghosts to replenish your Ghost Immortal foundation. "
The black jade on the altar disappeared and was replaced by a dagger.
"This dagger can steal the opponent's origin divine power. You're on your own. "After Ji Feichen's guidance, his spiritual will did not leave. Instead, it flowed into the Underworld together with the Black Water. His spiritual will followed the Black Water into the depths of the earth and actively tried to fuse with the Light of the Underworld.
It was not just Wu Zhe. Similar things were happening within a thousand-mile radius of the Golden Palace.
It had been three months since Ji Feichen led the navy to break into the Light of the Underworld. In three months, everyone managed to conquer a piece of land for Ji Feichen to build the King's Court and open up a home for the River Styx faction.
King Youha's power was in the water. Even if he took over the Underworld first, he would still be the master of the River Styx in the Underworld in the Qian Guang State. Therefore, after the navy killed the indigenous ghosts, he immediately turned the ghosts into Nine Underworld Weak Water and tried to open up a new River Styx in the Underworld to speed up the fusion of the two Underworlds. Unfortunately, the repulsive force of the Underworld was too strong.
"In the past three months, I've killed no less than ten thousand ghosts, but I still can't refine a real River of the Netherworld?" Ji Feichen, who was sitting in the Golden Palace, slowly stood up. He stood outside the Golden Palace and looked at the underworld.
The Qian Guang State was not as powerful as Xuanzheng Chau. The Underworld did not produce a Celestial that was comparable to the Lord of the Underworld. At least, Ji Feichen had not discovered it. However, after countless years of accumulation, there were many ghosts in the Earthly Realm. Among them, there was no lack of troublesome existences like the Giant Spirit Ghost.
The Giant Spirit Ghost was a failed product of reincarnation after a god died. Every Giant Spirit Ghost was a powerful god when they were alive. When Ji Feichen and the others entered the Qian Guang Underworld, they encountered a Giant Spirit Ghost that was sleeping soundly. At that time, Daoist Jing Ming, who had lost his Karmic Rank of the Lord of the Underworld, was very weak. He was almost severely injured by the Giant Spirit Ghost. Fortunately, a phoenix descended from the sky and beat the Giant Spirit Ghost back.
"If I want to make the River Styx, I have to sacrifice the blood of a ghost in the Earthly Realm?"
He thought about the Underworld of Xuanzheng Chau and the Underworld of Qian Guang State.
Back then, Xuanzheng Chau's Underworld had the Innate Xuanming Qi as a shareholder. With the help of the Hades Hierarch, he naturally became a Celestial Being. However, now that the Huang Ting Palace was sealed, how could he find the Xuanming Qi easily?
"Should I go and unseal the Huang Ting Palace immediately?" This thought flashed through Ji Feichen's mind. He temporarily suppressed his impatience to take back the Taoist Embryo. "I can't rush. I can't rush now. I don't know what's going on in the Xuanming Mystery Realm. If I have made some arrangements, I will be tricked. "
The eight Daojun had sent the immortal talismans with great fanfare. They also had the full support of the Phoenix Clan. If I don't have any defensive measures, I might as well kill myself.
There must be an ambush outside the Huang Ting Palace. Ji Feichen would not be stupid enough to walk into the trap.
"If I can't find the Xuanming Qi, I can only kill the ghosts in the Earthly Realm." However, Ji Feichen was building the Golden Palace. In order to protect the navy of the River Styx, he could not leave.
"My Phoenix True Form is not enough to kill the ghosts in the Earthly Realm. If that's the case … "He had an idea and called out softly," Qiu Ze. "
A ghost immortal walked in. "Your Majesty is looking for me?"
"Go back and tell them that we are starting to take root in the Underworld. However, because we are not familiar with the place, I plan to join forces with the natives. Ask them what treatment the Underworld can give to an Earthly Realm Divine Bird. "
"Phoenix? Are you talking about the Divine Bird that saved us? "
"That's right." Ji Feichen did not expose his incarnation. He was planning to use the Divine Bird to make a fortune from the Xuanzheng Underworld!
Qiu Ze immediately said, "Don't worry, I will definitely pass the message. However, the attitude of the Palace of the Netherworld … "
"That phoenix was all alone. He will need allies in the Underworld in the future. Do you think there is anyone better than us? " Ji Feichen tempted his subordinates. "Think of a way to help him fight for benefits. We can take advantage of him later and sell a favor to the Phoenix."
"Understood!" Qiu Ze immediately went back to contact the other Lords of the Netherworld.
Ji Feichen took out a mirror and looked at his face. He could not help but think, "Such a handsome face. What a pity." At this moment, he was still using the face of the Qing Hong Taoist. However, Ji Feichen had many incarnations. In order to distinguish the different incarnations, he would adjust his appearance.
Very quickly, he made a new face for himself. Although he did not lose his handsomeness, there was a hint of femininity. It was more in line with the imagination of others about Reinggang Kun. Then, Daoist Jing Ming silently circulated his energy to restrain his blood energy. His face was sallow, and he pretended to be haggard from work. He sat quietly in the hall to rest.
One day later, the Four-Faced King personally came to the Golden Palace. Of course, he only came with an incarnation.
After entering the Underworld of the Guiguang Continent, the Four-Faced King was also suppressed by the Underworld. However, in the Golden Palace that Ji Feichen opened, his situation was better than Ji Feichen's. He still had some strength left.
As soon as he entered, he saw the haggard Reinggang Kun on the throne. Instantly, the Four-Faced King was shocked. He could not help but ask with concern, "Are you okay?" Although he was not familiar with Ji Feichen, annexing the Guiguang Underworld was the top priority of the Underworld. King Youha could not allow anything to happen to him at this time.
"I'm alright." Ji Feichen's voice was hoarse, and he sounded weak.
Originally, the Four-Faced King had only come to get a feel of things. If he could complete the establishment of the Underworld on his own, why would he need the help of the natives? However, looking at Reinggang Kun's appearance, the Underworld's suppression on him was actually that great?
For a Great Lord of the Underworld, he could not even cover his face. This was a sign of a lack of magic power.
The Four-Faced King hurriedly took out the spirit medicine that he had prepared earlier and fed it to Daoist Jing Ming. Waves of cold aura spread through Ji Feichen's body.
"Hey, this medicine is not bad. Could it be the batch of medicine that the Sect Master gave me back then? What a pity. It's too much of a waste to use it on Jing Ming's incarnation. If it were the Demon Dragon's body, it might be able to alleviate the Demonic Qi in my body. "
As Ji Feichen thought about it, he coughed lightly and instructed the Four-Faced King, "I connected two Underworld worlds and resisted the Underworld's repulsion alone. I forcefully opened up a 500-kilometer God Territory, and my magic power consumption is increasing day by day. I must cultivate River Styx and complete the initial integration within a few days. Otherwise, I can only ask Yin Shan to come and replace me. However, she is also a Nature God, and her repulsion is also the greatest. "
"So serious?" The Four-Faced King's four faces all turned serious. "Later, I will send someone to send you another batch of spirit medicine. Hold on for now. As for the matter of roping in the natives, I will take care of it. "
According to the conditions that the Great Lords of the Underworld offered, roping in an Earthly Realm ghost immortal would at most be a noble. They would let him carve out a territory in the Dim Light Underworld, build his own ghost city, and recruit ghost generals. They could even suppress him further by worshiping the phoenix and giving him an empty title.
However, looking at Reinggang Kun's current situation, he might not be able to hold on for long. He could not afford to wrangle with that native.
"Qiu Ze, take me to find the phoenix. Reinggang Kun, take a rest first. You can count on us. If you really can't do it, immediately ask Yin Shan to come and replace you! "
Ji Feichen removed the water that covered his face, revealing a sickly handsome face. Seeing His Majesty's face, Qiu Ze was stunned.
The Four-Faced King looked impatient and urged him again. Qiu Ze reacted and immediately took the Four-Faced King to find the phoenix.
After the two left, Ji Feichen smiled and took out the half-empty bottle of spirit medicine to study. A crying child would get candy. Now that he had caused trouble, he believed that the Underworld would not sit still, right?
…
The Four-Faced King and the Ghost King were worried about Reinggang Kun's safety. They sped up and soon found the phoenix combing its feathers in the Underworld Mountains.
The sky-blue phoenix was surrounded by ice flames. Wisps of faith power formed fireworks that blocked the Four-Faced King's detection.
Currently, the phoenix's true form was only at the peak of the Human Immortal Realm. It was still a bit away from the Earth Realm. However, surrounded by the ice flames, the Absolute Beginning True Meaning imitated it as a phoenix at the peak of the Earth Realm.
A look of surprise appeared on the Ghost King's face. "Ice Phoenix? That's rare. "
He had thought that it was a phoenix that evolved from some ghost bird Underworld Raven. He did not expect it to be a true divine bird.
"If that's the case, it won't be easy to make the offer." Although the phoenix was not an adult, it had unlimited potential.
The phoenix saw the two and spoke in human language. "Qiu Ze, who told you to bring outsiders here? Where's Lingjiang? "
"His Majesty is ill. That's why we invited another Underworld Lord to visit you. "
"Underworld Lord?" The phoenix extended its long neck and sized up the Four-Faced King's four faces.
The Four-Faced King smiled brightly and took out a few Mystic Yin Ghost Fruits. "These are special spirit medicines from the Xuanzheng Underworld. Please accept them, divine bird."
The Ghost-Faced Divine Yin Wood was a spirit root controlled by the Four-Faced King. It bore fruit once every 500 years. The fruit was the Mystic Yin Ghost Fruit. It was named for its resemblance to a human face. It could strengthen the Mystic Yin Qi in one's body and avoid the Lightning Tribulation. Even Reinggang Kun only had two of them. Now, to befriend the phoenix, the Four-Faced King took out three of them.
"How generous!" Ji Feichen sighed inwardly. He was even more determined to split his soul. Having multiple identities meant that he could profit from different identities. Now, the first pot of gold had arrived.
The phoenix flapped its wings and stored the three Mystic Yin Ghost Fruits into its anklet.
"The Underworld sure knows how to behave. That bastard Lingjiang gave me a lot of spirit medicines, and you gave me three Mystic Yin Ghost Fruits. "
That bastard gave him medicine? Yes, if he hadn't given the spirit medicines to the phoenix, he wouldn't have been unable to heal himself. Wasn't Reinggang Kun too honest? The spirit medicines for the phoenix could have been taken from the public treasury. He would ask Yin Shan and the others to prepare later. He couldn't let this honest man pay alone.
The Ghost King was very touched by Reinggang Kun's "silent contribution." He made up his mind to help Reinggang Kun make up for it from the Underworld treasury.
The phoenix said arrogantly, "Alright, I won't interfere in the battle between you and the Guang Ming World in the future. I'll maintain absolute neutrality. Your good intentions won't be in vain."
Only neutrality?
The Four-Faced King wouldn't allow a native like him to do that.
"You don't seem to be close to the Guang Ming World? You must be a direct descendant of the Phoenix Clan? "
The phoenix's anklet was a true artifact no matter how one looked at it. It wasn't something that was casually refined. Moreover, the Phoenix Clan had many natural inheritances. Perhaps this phoenix was a direct descendant of a certain Heavenly Phoenix!
"So what if I am?"
"If that's the case, why don't you help the Underworld? The Xuanzheng Underworld is a powerful clan. If we can occupy the Underworld, we'll definitely reward you generously. "
"No need. Don't you know the nickname of the Phoenix Clan? Do you think I want your things? I'm only willing to remain neutral because of your sincerity. "
The Four-Faced King wanted to make friends, but the phoenix refused to budge. It looked like it didn't care about the Underworld's disputes.
The Ghost King smiled bitterly. Yes, this phoenix that had jumped out of life and death indeed didn't have a good impression of the Underworld.
The Four-Faced King made up his mind. "Although the divine bird has the power of the Earth Realm, it hasn't taken the final step. If you're willing to help us take control of the Underworld here. There might be a place for you among the ten kings of the Guang Ming Underworld in the future! "
