The throne of the Lord of the Netherworld!
This was Hell's last resort. Currently, the Ten Great Sovereigns of Xuanzheng Chau had yet to be completed. Even if the seven Great Monarchs had made some gains in the outside world, they still wouldn't be able to gather ten people in the other Netherworld worlds. In this way, as long as he gave up the throne of the Ghost King of the Underworld, he would be able to rope in the local natives.
However, the Four-Faced King was unwilling to give a portion of the great benefits of the Faint Light Underworld Era to others. If it wasn't for the fact that Reinggang Kun's condition wasn't good, and that this Phoenix indeed had unlimited potential, he definitely wouldn't have taken out his last condition.
However —
"The ten kings of Hell? What was that? Is it edible? " The phoenix's tone was filled with disdain. "I was born in the Lightless Realm, and I naturally control the power of darkness and ice. In the future, it's just around the corner for me to become a Heavenly Phoenix. Why should I get involved in your troubles? "
That's right, for a phoenix, besides the phoenix nest, it wouldn't need anything else. Given the phoenix's noble temperament, how could she possibly tolerate such a thing?
The Ghost King was instantly speechless. In the past, when he dealt with the ghosts of human cultivators, he could still think from the perspective of humans. But how could he know what the phoenix wanted?
At this moment, Qiu Ze spoke up, "Master Phoenix, although your nest is built in the Lightless Realm, it's still far from the Lightless Realm. But there is no one there all year round. Who will offer you offerings? After becoming an Underworld Monarch, you will have the support of the entire Underworld and the annual tribute of natural treasures. That is befitting of your status. Otherwise, why would it be a Heavenly Phoenix that doesn't even have a treasure? "
"Yes, yes. 'Phoenixes don't land in places without treasures'. Every phoenix has a strong foundation and can refine several Deva Supreme Treasures. But Your Excellency … "
Blinking its phoenix eyes, the sky-blue divine bird buried its head in deep thought. After a long time, he said, "Prepare to sign the contract. We will swear by the heavens. Firstly, I'm the Great Lord of the Netherworld of the Underworld. You can't seize my position at will. "
"That's easy." The Ghost King directly used his Ghost Qi to condense a document. "Our position as the Netherworld Great Lord will be proven forever. Apart from Hades Hierarch, no one could depose him. But as the first Ghost King of the Qian Guang Continent, you will definitely be favored by the Underworld. As long as you don't abdicate, no one can force you. "
"Secondly, I want more than the other Devil Kings"
The Four-Faced King furrowed his brows. His incarnation sent the news back. Not long after, he brought back the Netherworld Lords' decision.
"In the Qianguang Continent's Underworld, as the number one Ghost King, you can take more." The Ghost King wrote a second rule. Following that, the phoenix made a few more requests, but none of them crossed the line of Hell's bottom line.
"I don't know if it's a coincidence or if this phoenix is smart. All of her demands are within our tolerance."
Nonsense, with Reinggang Kun, the mole, secretly revealing his bottom line, of course the request for the Phoenix True Body would not be too excessive.
After writing more than ten lines, the phoenix finally revealed a satisfied expression. "That's enough. That's it!" He opened his mouth and spat out an icy flame, imprinting his fire seed's mark on the document.
The Four-Faced King also took out a jade seal. This jade seal was not his royal seal, but the supreme seal of the Xuanzheng Chau Underworld, containing the will of the various Ghost Kings. As the jade seal was stamped, images such as waves, mountain patterns, moonlight, and ghost faces appeared one by one. Finally, after the two sides signed the contract, the document silently disappeared into the void. It was bound to the phoenix and the Underworld by the power of the Heavenly Dao.
Seeing that the document was signed, the Ghost King was finally relieved. "It's not easy to deceive a natural-born divine bird." The Ghost King heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he said to Phoenix Island, "Your Excellency, please make a great wish to establish the Underworld so that we can be free from the Underworld's rejection."
"There's no hurry. Since you want to be the Underworld King, I'll bring you to kill a few ghosts first so that Reinggang Kun can complete the River Styx."
"Complete the River Styx?"
"He's connected the Underworld between the two worlds, so he'll receive the greatest rejection from the Underworld. The only way is to kill the Giant Spirit Ghost and sacrifice the Ghost God's Origin. "
"Then, you didn't remind him?" Thinking of Reinggang Kun's haggard face, the Four-Faced King was a little unhappy.
"Although he gave me a lot of spiritual medicine, it's not enough to make me give up my neutral stance. Also, why should I remind him? What's in it for me? "
The Four-Faced King was speechless at the phoenix's indifferent attitude toward Reinggang Kun. However, on second thought, 'This is good too. They won't collude and monopolize the Qianguang Underworld in the future, making things difficult for us.'
The Ghost King wanted to show off his celestial methods in front of the phoenix, so he said, "Don't worry, I'll deal with this Giant Spirit Ghost. You just need to lead the way."
The phoenix spread its wings and flew into the sky. The Ghost King followed behind with Qiu Ze. About an hour later, the two ghosts and the bird arrived at the Underworld Mountains that were three thousand miles away.
Wind and snow drifted in the Underworld Mountains. Wisps of cold air condensed into dark underworld lights that looked like dragons and snakes coiled in the sky. The Ghost King cast the Round Light Secret Technique and illuminated the sleeping Giant Spirit Ghost in the Underworld Mountains.
The phoenix said in a low voice, "It's him. Kill him, and Reinggang Kun can refine the River Styx. "
"At the same time, it'll benefit you too?" The Ghost King glanced at the phoenix as if he had seen through its thoughts.
"That's right."
This Giant Spirit Ghost was the Snow Mountain God of the Lightless Realm. Later, because of a conflict with the Heavenly Gate, it was killed by the previous Heavenly Gate Master. Its authority and soul fell into the Underworld, transforming into a Ghost God. Unfortunately, the transformation failed, and it became a ghost without consciousness.
The Ghost King sized up the Giant Spirit Ghost and thought to himself, 'If it becomes a Ghost God, it should be a Mountain God of the Underworld like the Yin Mountain Goddess, one of the future rulers of the Qianguang Underworld. Unfortunately, we already have the Goddess, so we don't need the Underworld King at the same position. Moreover, we're not that generous to give up the position of Ghost King. '
Therefore, he said to the phoenix, "I'll destroy his soul essence. You use cold air to freeze his blood to ensure that he won't turn into a one-eyed ghost."
"I understand." The phoenix flew into the sky, and its wings attracted wind and snow. Icicles sprinkled onto the Underworld Mountains, immediately awakening the Giant Spirit Ghost.
The ghost's body was huge, like a real mountain standing in the Underworld. Its thick arms reached into the sky, and its five fingers were like steep mountains, enveloping the phoenix.
A pleasant cry came from the sky. The phoenix flapped its wings and soared in the sky in an elegant dance, dodging the Giant Spirit Ghost's attack.
"Ghost King, attack!" the phoenix called out, and the Four-Faced King below attacked.
The Celestial Force slashed through the void. With a flash of black light, the Giant Spirit Ghost's body shook and exploded into hundreds of pieces of flesh. Black blood gushed out.
The wind, snow, and icicles in the sky immediately surged, sealing the Giant Spirit Ghost's flesh and blood in ice.
In the blink of an eye, the pitch-black "mountain range" turned into rolling hills covered in snow. The phoenix swooped down, picked up a Ghost Pill from the hill, and swallowed it.
The Snow Mountain God of the Lightless Realm. His Ghost Pill contained part of the Mountain God's authority of the Yang World's Snow Mountain. As the phoenix absorbed it, a white light lit up among the snowy mountains of the Yang World's Lightless Realm.
At that moment, Qiu Ze went forward and buried the black jade into the hill, turning the Giant Spirit Ghost's corpse into Black Water.
The phoenix smacked its beak and said to the Four-Faced King, "This Giant Spirit Ghost might not be enough. Why don't we kill a few more?"
"You're planning to expand your authority in the mortal world, right?" The Ghost King exposed the phoenix's plan, but the phoenix didn't look ashamed. "I do need a helper. But this will be most helpful to Reinggang Kun, won't it? "
The Ghost King was silent. Then, he helped the phoenix kill three ghosts with the authority of the snowy mountains in the mortal world.
Just like that, four snowy mountains rose up outside the phoenix nest left by Feng Xian, forming a square with white light. White mist and cold air surged into the phoenix nest from all directions, forming a brand new Dao Domain in the sky.
Countless years of faith in the Lightless Realm poured into the Dao Domain, forming the phoenix's true form on the Yang World's Snow Mountain. The mortals' fear, anger, and resentment toward the Lightless Realm turned into demonic clouds and entered the phoenix's body. This power was enough to turn an ordinary flying bird into a demonic bird at the peak of the Earth Realm. But with the authority of the Snow Mountain God, the vast and heavy power of the mountains suppressed the demonic aura.
Standing in the Lightless Realm in the north, the unmoving snowy peak allowed the phoenix to suppress the demonic nature in its body. At the same time, a spark of faith belonging to the Nether Bird lit up.
Some time ago, the phoenix called itself the Nether Bird and returned the souls of a few mortals from the Qianguang Continent. These people helped Ji Feichen promote a brand new myth in the mortal world. While the faith in the Lightless Realm was attributed to the phoenix, it also eliminated the negative emotions and revered it as a divine bird.
However, this spark of godhood was like a drop in the bucket compared to the thousands of years of faith in the Nether Bird Demon God. It only took up a portion of the phoenix's feathers.
If it was an ordinary cultivator facing the thousands of years of faith in the Demon God, their will would probably collapse and they would be transformed into a new Demon God. Even for Ji Feichen, this was a difficult transformation process.
But I have an incarnation!
The door to the Great Void opened, and the incarnation of the Mystic Light Realm on the Qinghe Continent stepped on the clouds, holding a green branch and scattering rain. The Triple Light Clean Water shone brightly and dispelled the resentment, leaving only the pure power of faith and wish.
In the direction of the Sky Heart Dragon Mountain, 24 precious pearls smashed toward the demonic clouds, shattering the layers of stubborn demonic clouds. The Great Dao Mystic Diagram transformed the pure light of faith and strengthened the Divine Spark of the Absolute Beginning Phoenix.
When the sky blue Celestial Light gradually became strong enough to confront the demonic clouds, the true body of the phoenix from the Underworld flew back to the phoenix nest and harvested the thousands of years of power in the Lightless Realm.
The true body of the phoenix in front of the Four-Faced King broke out of the Underworld and flew back to the Lightless Realm. He frowned and was about to follow. However, the sound of splashing water came from the direction of the Golden Palace. The floating Golden Palace of the River of Spirits suddenly collapsed. Streams of Black Water rushed into the Underworld, and a huge waterfall formed a swamp on the ground. At this moment, Reinggang Kun started to refine the real River Styx in the Underworld.
"Do you have to do it now?" The Ghost King retracted his leg and hurriedly brought Qiu Ze to protect Reinggang Kun.
Of course it has to be now. Otherwise, what would you think if you saw my incarnations purifying the resentment in the Lightless Realm!?
