Along the way, Ji Feichen didn't feel lonely listening to the four of them talk.
However, at the fifth stop, when the ship passed by the Chaotic Divine Whirlpool, a few unfamiliar ships suddenly appeared.
"The ship in front, please stop." Five qi practitioners appeared outside the ship and shouted at the ship in the distance, "We are traveling with Soaring Cloud Island's immortal talisman. Please do us a favor."
"Soaring Cloud Island? Hehe … unfortunately, that celestial maiden won't be able to save you today! "Suddenly, the ship fired cannons. The firepower of each cannonball was equivalent to that of an ordinary magic artifact.
The young men and women's expressions changed. "Enemy attack?"
"Should be pirates." One of the boys took out a pair of binoculars. "Don't be afraid. Soaring Cloud Island is in charge of the coastal waters."
That's right. With Soaring Cloud Island, what was there to be afraid of?
Ji Feichen's expression was calm as he looked out the window. Suddenly, he turned to the empty seat beside him and said, "It's all your fault, Death God. You've come to the ocean. Someone's probably going to die again. "
Space twisted. Then, a demon wrapped in a black cloak appeared beside him.
Without another word, Ji Feichen took out a few novels that his incarnation had given him and threw them at the demon's face. "What do you mean by Qing Hong saving the fox and White Fox repaying the favor? Don't you want to explain it to me?"
"Explain what?" The cloaked man picked up the novel and flipped through two pages. He said nonchalantly, "It's just a street novel. Did you take it seriously?"
"Hehe, of course I didn't take it seriously. But it does seem to have a lot of real people mixed in, "Ji Feichen said through gritted teeth," I wasn't the one who saved the fox. It was someone who let White Fox go back then. Don't tell me this so-called repaying the favor is a glorification of revenge? "
"…"
After a while, the cloaked man replied, "What did you say? The wind was too strong. I didn't hear you."
"Forget it. Who else could the pen name 'Coffin Man' be other than you, the King of Hell? You're really bored. You actually secretly created a character in the human world to write novels. "
"It wasn't just me. Tushan also wrote it. I was the one who held him down for you so that his novel wouldn't be able to spread. "
"He wrote it too?"
"That's right." Peng Shaoyu took off his black cloak, revealing his pale face as he complained, "His novel is even more outrageous. It's a disgrace to your reputation, so I secretly suppressed it and didn't let him publish it."
Ji Feichen looked at Peng Shaoyu suspiciously. "Are you worried that his novel will be more popular than yours, so you deliberately suppressed it?"
Peng Shaoyu's eyes widened. "Nonsense! How can you slander my innocence! I'm doing this for the sake of your reputation, not for the popularity of my own novel! "
"Tsk —" Ji Feichen did not believe him at all, so he decided to change the topic. "What's up with those pirates?"
"That's right, those pirates were lured here by me."
"Sure enough, I knew it. How could a normal person dare to cause trouble in the territory of Flying Clouds Island?"
The Impermanence King shook his head. "The Exalted Immortals of Flying Clouds Island have all gone to the Great Maelstrom to prepare for the birth of the new continent. There aren't many people on the island now, so I enticed these pirates to attack the ships."
"Why, are there not enough people on the Underworld's side?"
"They can manage, just barely. But the situation is getting worse. Close your eyes — "Peng Shaoyu covered Ji Feichen's eyelids with his left hand. The cold touch carried the unique chill of the Netherworld.
The next moment, Ji Feichen's vision changed, and the scene of the Netherworld appeared.
In the darkness outside the World Ring of River Styx, groups of horrifying monsters slowly approached the River Styx. The navy of River Styx was immediately mobilized to fight these monsters with the evil energy of Acheron.
The scene disappeared in a flash. When Ji Feichen came back to his senses, he looked at Peng Shaoyu, who was leisurely drinking tea beside him. "Isn't this my navy of the Underworld from Xuanzheng Chau? Is it from Qian Guang Continent? Why didn't I hear anything? "
"Your two avatars were forced to enter the River Styx to support the entire River Styx barrier against the people of Acheron. Now, the navy of the two prefectures and six departments is managed by your subordinates. Naturally, it wasn't appropriate to report to you that the navy was lacking manpower. So, they begged me to come to the human realm and find some pirates to fill in the numbers. "
Ji Feichen's expression was solemn. He knew that the threat of the Calamity of Acheron was far greater than that of the Immortal and Demon Calamity. But it had only been a few years, and it had already reached this point?
Decades ago, a mysterious demonic sound suddenly echoed in the Underworld. The demonic sound was strange and unpredictable, causing the people to lose consciousness. They left the Underworld in a daze and headed for the depths of the Underworld.
According to the research of the various great lords, this was a demonic sound coming from the Kingdom of Acheron. It was a sign that the Great Sage of Acheron was about to appear. At the end of the day, the Acheron Kingdom was the true residence of the souls of the dead. The so-called Underworld Ghost Kingdom was a means by which the various great powers replaced the authority of the Acheron Kingdom.
In order to protect the people of Acheron, King Youha had no choice but to merge the body of the Ghost King into River Styx to increase the defense of River Styx and block the demonic sound of Acheron. As a result, Onmyōjin could only use King Youha's palace to issue orders to the outside world and mobilize the navy of the River Styx outside. His control was not as good as before.
"Currently, there are signs of the people of Acheron appearing in the periphery of the World Ring River Styx. These people of Acheron engage in guerrilla warfare near the Underworld, stealing the souls of the dead in the Underworld and transforming them into new people of Acheron. In fact, when a battle breaks out and they are killed by them, their souls will automatically be absorbed into the Acheron Kingdom. "Peng Shaoyu said," Your subordinates are considered loyal. They do their best to kill the enemy and protect the River Styx, but they do not dare to tell you the truth, so they asked for my help. "
Ji Feichen smiled bitterly and sighed, "The demonic sound of Acheron was so obvious, yet it did not detect it. I made the wrong move back then. "
"What do you mean?"
"It was precisely because I transformed into the River Styx and strengthened the seal on the Underworld that the people of Acheron were able to locate the correct location of the Underworld and launch an attack on two underworlds."
Back then, Ji Feichen was busy with his cultivation, and Onmyōjin was also busy refining the River Styx. Thus, he had no time to deal with the affairs of the Underworld. Thus, he hastily decided to allow the incarnation of Hades to fuse with the River Styx in order to enhance the defensive capabilities of the River Styx. However, this also led to the exposure of the coordinates of the two underworlds, allowing the people of Acheron to follow the coordinates and attack the two underworlds. Comparatively speaking, the Black Anemone Underworld experienced a small-scale upheaval, but there was no large-scale invasion of the underworld.
After a moment of deliberation, Ji Feichen asked, "Have you compared the people of Acheron to each other? Are they indeed two completely different kingdoms of Acheron Kingdom? "
"I'm certain. Based on the information you've received, the underworld that attacked Xuanzheng Underworld is the Heaveneye Division. On the other hand, the Qianguang Underworld is located in the other Acheron Kingdom. "
"If it's just two kingdoms of Acheron Kingdom, then it's still easier to deal with."
There are 18 underworlds in the Acheron Kingdom. Apart from the Midheaven Underworld and the Shinra Underworld, the Celestial King's Underworld has maintained an ambiguous attitude towards the underworld, and has never made contact with the other underworlds. The other sixteen underworlds have also launched expeditions to the other 32 continents. Two of the four northern continents would be attacked by the Acheron Kingdom at the same time.
The reason why the two incarnations of Hades had transformed into the River Styx so early on was also because of the pressure from the Temple of the Yinming Sect.
The Temple of the Yinming Sect was in charge of the thirteen branches of the River Styx, and had withstood the combined attacks of several underworlds of Acheron. If not for the restraint of the people of Acheron, and the restrictions left behind by the Demon Ancestor in the Temple of the Yinming Sect, the people of Acheron would have long since snatched the River Styx.
"Blindly defending doesn't suit my temperament. The plan I mentioned, has it been approved? "
"For now, it'll be nurtured in the Qianguang Underworld. After all, there are immortals in Xuanzheng Chau, so we don't dare to act rashly. We'll only attack sects with fewer people. "
When Peng Shaoyu said this, Ji Feichen raised an eyebrow, "I get angry at the mention of this! Your Anicca Division is too incompetent, to actually let Tushan suspect me. "
"Tushan? You've met? "
"I just met him not long ago. I thought I'd meet you first, but I didn't expect Tushan to find me first. Then, he asked me about the Wuwei school. This guy has already begun to suspect me. "
"Suspected so soon?" Peng Shaoyu was a little surprised, "This fox's nose is really sharp."
"Is he too smart, or are you too careless?" Ji Feichen said to Peng Shaoyu, "Fortunately, it's only Tushan. If it was someone else, wouldn't it be troublesome?"
"Anyway, you're the scapegoat for the Yin Ming School, so it doesn't matter to you. Moreover, you personally dealt with the Wuwei school, and our Anicca Division is only responsible for the aftermath. "
"But you didn't deal with the aftermath well, and let Tushan find traces of the Ruoshui. If not you, who will he look for?"
"Please, didn't we act thoroughly? When we left, we cleaned up thoroughly three times, even digging up the traces of the battle and bringing them back to the Underworld. I guarantee that there are no traces of the battle left. How could Tushan find traces of the Ruoshui? "
"Not on the ground, but what about the sky? What about the air? In short, it's your carelessness. "
"Yes, yes, we'll pay attention in the future. When we do this kind of thing again, directly pack up the air within a radius of a hundred miles and take it away. Compared to this, I'm more curious about how Tushan found you. "
Peng Shaoyu was able to find Ji Feichen by relying on the intelligence network of the Underworld. Could it be that Tushan is faster than the intelligence network of the Underworld?
"Who knows, maybe he's rich. I've never heard of someone who can make the devil turn the millstone. Maybe he's also bribing the greedy ghosts under you to work for him and borrow the intelligence network of the Underworld? After all, my VIP cabin was paid for by him. "
The group of four who ran away from home on the same ship were of noble birth and wealthy, but they were only staying in the ordinary cabin. One could imagine the price of the VIP cabin.
"That guy is indeed rich." In this regard, Peng Shaoyu could not help but admire Tushan's business methods.
Tushan made a lot of money from the Immortal Dao through the "Demon Armor Technique", so naturally he was not stingy with renting a ship for Ji Feichen.
The Demon Armor Technique allowed immortals and demon beasts to cultivate together. The new industry derived from this idea was the most profitable industry of the Demon Race. Levante could not help but be envious when he saw this industry, and secretly supported three chambers of commerce to compete for business.
Demon beasts, how to tame demon beasts and learn combat skills? How to ensure the demon beasts' diet and speed up their cultivation? How to treat injured demon beasts? Compared to the technology of the Immortal Dao, the technology of the Demon Race was clearly superior.
Therefore, many immortals had to buy cultivation techniques for their demon beasts and train them in a special demon beast school. Of course, this was only for demon beasts that traveled alone. If they were demon beasts cultivated by the sacred land of the Demon Race, naturally there would be cultivation techniques and combat skills prepared by their elders.
But what about diet? Demon beasts needed special food. In order to cultivate their intimacy, immortals had to bear the pain and buy exclusive food for demon beasts. Heavenly Treasure Food Shop saw the business opportunity, and while selling immortal food, it introduced "beast food" and "bird food". This kind of long-term support was not a small burden for immortals.
This was equivalent to the various resources used for one person's cultivation, but now they had to support the use of two cultivators of the same realm.
In addition, when the demon beasts were injured or sick, the immortals' technology was obviously not as good as that of the Demon Race. That would be another huge sum of money for treatment. If they had blood relatives in the Demon Race, they would definitely have the means to help heal. However, many immortals were afraid of the Demon Race, and refused to let their contracted beasts come from the sacred land of the Demon Race under Tushan. Therefore, they cultivated spirit beasts outside, and trained fighters who were on their side. These were the exclusive immortal beasts of the major sects. However, in terms of treatment, diet, and other aspects, these sects could not compare to the Demon Race, and could only be "fat sheep" to be slaughtered by Tushan unscrupulously.
When he heard that Ji Feichen was going out to sea to sightsee, Tushan casually found a ship company to book a VIP seat for him.
"He's rich, but if he wants to bribe my Impermanence Department, his hands aren't that long!" Peng Shaoyu narrowed his eyes. "Did this guy find you through Long Yuan?"
"That can't be, right? My Long Yuan is so tight, how could he infiltrate? "Although Long Yuan had begun to expand its Earth Net in the Four Northernmost Continents and neglected Xuanzheng Chau's operations. But with Genchuhei around, it was impossible for Tushan to interfere.
