The Hades Heavenly Ghost's body trembled uncontrollably. It was originally prepared to leave, but it could not take another step forward no matter how hard it tried. With a thud, it knelt on the ground and prostrated on all fours, not daring to move an inch. The Edict of the God of the Underworld represented the God of the Underworld. No one in the Underworld dared to disobey it.
"Legend has it that there are only nine volumes of the Edicts issued by the God of the Underworld. For billions of years, the number of Edicts of the God of the Underworld that have been preserved can be counted on one's fingers. Even the Ghost Gods and Corpse Gods in the Underworld yearn for it in their dreams. How could a mere Jiang Yan have such an item?"
Mo Qingge said with difficulty. As she looked at the Edict of the God of the Underworld, she could not help but feel a sense of panic. The appearance of the Edict of the God of the Underworld was a shocking event for all the worlds. What did it mean for it to appear in the Source World?
The God of the Underworld was the most supreme existence in the legends. He was the one and only God of the Underworld. He had ruled the Underworld for countless years, and everyone in the Underworld was conferred the title of God. According to historical records, the Nether God was one of the most ancient existences. However, a long time ago, the God of the Underworld was a legend, a legend that all the worlds could only look up to.
In ancient times, the God of the Underworld had issued nine imperial scrolls. Each scroll of the God of the Underworld's Edict was a Heavenly Dao, a condensation of the supreme laws of heaven and earth. To the people of the Underworld, the Edict of the God of the Underworld was the most supreme existence.
Everyone knew that it was impossible for Jiang Ya to have something like the Edict of the God of the Underworld. However, if the Edict of the God of the Underworld was not Jiang Ya's, then whose did it belong to?
What kind of person would even bring out the Edict of the God of the Underworld for this sacred sacrifice?
"Father!"
In the ancient city, before the altar, the young master of the Ghost Lair knelt down with a thud. His face was covered in tears, and his eyes were filled with sorrow.
He was the son of Ghost King Jiang Yan, the first young master of the Ghost Lair, and the most talented person among the younger generation. But at this moment, his eyes were filled with despair because he knew that the moment his father used the Edict of the God of the Underworld would be the moment his father's soul would scatter and he would lose his life. His father would absolutely not use the Edict of the God of the Underworld until the very last moment.
"What are you crying for? For the sake of Holy Sacrifice, anything can be sacrificed. Moreover, the Edict of the God of the Underworld represents the God of the Underworld. This King is honored to be summoned by the God of the Underworld, and I can die without regrets. "
An illusory figure slowly walked out of the black hole. The figure was very dim, as if it could be blown away by a gust of wind. However, he was at the center of the black hole.
It could be vaguely seen that the figure was Jiang Ya. At this moment, Jiang Ya was kneeling with both hands raised high. The Edict of the God of the Underworld was floating above his palm.
"We absolutely cannot let him complete the sacred sacrifice."
Xiao Hongyu bellowed. He suddenly pointed his finger forward and a mighty force burst out. At the same time, the shadow of the Sky Palace in the sky shook violently. At the same time, it released an extremely powerful force that fiercely collided with Jiang Ya.
Who knew that Xiao Hongyu's full-force attack, which had activated the power of the Heaven Palace, would disappear without a trace before it could even reach Jiang Ya. It was as if there was an invisible giant mouth in the void, swallowing his power.
Puchi!
Xiao Hongyu's body shook violently. With a puchi, he spat out a mouthful of blood. His Essence, Qi, and spirit were instantly depleted. Xiao Hongyu, who had originally looked like a middle-aged man, looked as if he had aged a few decades in an instant. Wrinkles appeared on his face, and most of his hair had turned white. It was as if he had jumped from middle age to old age.
In the sky, the shadow of the Sky Palace, which had almost covered half the space, suddenly shattered and quietly dissipated. The connection between the Sky Palace Projection and the Sky Palace had been cut off, and the Sky Palace itself could no longer be contacted.
All of this had happened without a sound. There had been no warning at all.
"Grand Palace Lord …!"
"Grand Palace Lord, what happened to you …"
The expressions of the Huatian Palace veterans changed drastically when they saw that Xiao Hongyu had been injured. All of them looked flustered. In their eyes, the Grand Palace Lord was an invincible existence. Now that the god-like Grand Palace Lord had been injured, how could this be possible?
"Grand Palace Lord, there is nothing we can do now," Mo Qingge shook her head and said softly.
"The Edict of the God of the Underworld is formed by the law of the Heavenly Path. Wherever it is, it is the ruler of the law of heaven and earth. The entire world is under its control. Unless a senior who has comprehended the Heavenly Path intervenes, everything will be in vain. "
She sighed softly. In the face of the Edict of the God of the Underworld, all their efforts would be in vain.
"Lord Heavenly Ghost, my cultivation is too low. Even if I burn my life to summon the Edict of the God of the Underworld, I will not be able to hold on for long. I cannot complete the sacred rite alone. I can only ask for your help, Lord Heavenly Ghost."
Jiang Yan ignored the members of the Huatian Palace and looked at the Hades Heavenly Ghost. Although he could easily destroy all the members of the Huatian Palace with the Edict of the God of the Underworld in front of him. Even if all the members of the Huatian Palace were added together, they would not be as important as one ten-thousandth of the sacred rite.
"What do you mean?" The Hades Heavenly Ghost looked at Jiang Yan in shock and anger.
"I am Jiang Yan. I am willing to sacrifice my life for the great cause of the Underworld. Lord Heavenly Ghost is an elite of the Underworld. I believe you will not have any selfish motives for the great cause of the Underworld. Oh, God of the Underworld, let us return to the embrace of the God of the Underworld. "
Jiang Yan looked up at the Hades Heavenly Ghost. Regardless of whether it agreed or not, a dark chain had already emerged from the black hole. With a slight movement, it bound the kneeling Hades Heavenly Ghost. In front of the Edict of the God of the Underworld, even the Hades Heavenly Ghost could not resist at all.
"You …" The Hades Heavenly Ghost looked at Jiang Yan in horror. Its eyes were filled with fear and panic. The power of the Edict of the God of the Underworld would definitely not only affect its doppelganger. It was very likely that its original body in the Underworld would also be destroyed.
Jiang Yan had made it sound easy, but the outcome would be complete death. It was a Hades Heavenly Ghost that was comparable to a Ghost Emperor. Never in its wildest dreams would it have thought that it would eventually become a sacrifice for the Edict of the God of the Underworld.
"Did you have this plan from the beginning? D * mn it. That b * stard Zixiao actually dared to deceive me. "
At this moment, the Hades Heavenly Ghost finally understood. Everything it knew was all a scam. It was part of the plan, and it had actually been directly involved. From the beginning to the end, it had been a sacrifice.
That sacrificial altar and the hundreds of women with special constitutions as sacrifices were most likely all fake. Even the Huatian Palace had been included in this plan. Jiang Yan had burned his life to summon the Edict of the God of the Underworld, but he could not complete the sacred sacrifice. How could he rely on a few hundred women with special constitutions to save people? That was absolutely impossible.
Hence, from the beginning to the end, the sacrificial altar had been fake. The Hades Heavenly Ghost was the real sacrifice.
"That b * stard Zixiao. I cannot coexist with him. I will not rest until he is dead …"
The Hades Heavenly Ghost roared crazily. The person who had tricked it into coming here with such a high reward clearly did not have good intentions from the beginning.
"Lord Heavenly Ghost, I am a sacrifice. You are also a sacrifice. For the great cause of the Underworld, our sacrifices are all glory. In the near future, our names will definitely be recorded in the history books of the Underworld."
Jiang Yan's voice was filled with fanaticism. He seemed to be the craziest believer. With a wave of his hand, the body of the Hades Heavenly Ghost flew up and landed in the black hole with him. Then, it melted bit by bit and faded bit by bit. It seemed to be being absorbed by the black hole.
"No …"
The Hades Heavenly Ghost's eyes were full of fear. It struggled continuously, but to no avail. It could sense that this cross-realm sacrifice was definitely not just for its doppelganger. Even its original body far away in the Underworld would be sacrificed. To it, this meant complete death.
The power of the black hole was irresistible. No matter how much it struggled, it was useless. The members of the Huatian Palace could only watch helplessly. They were unable to stop it.
"Tell me, what exactly is the sacred sacrifice this time? Even if I die, I want to die knowing the truth. That b * stard Zixiao definitely does not have the Edict of the God of the Underworld. There must be someone controlling everything from behind the scenes. "
At the last moment of its death, the Hades Heavenly Ghost actually calmed down. It really wanted to know why its life had to be sacrificed.
"Even if you ask me, I don't know. However, I know that the great Emperor Wu You will arrive soon."
Jiang Yan's gaze became more and more fanatical. When he said the words "Emperor Wu You", the fanaticism in his eyes reached its peak. It was as if he was not talking about a person, but a god.
"Emperor Wu You …!"
The Hades Heavenly Ghost was stunned for a moment. Then, a look of understanding flashed in its eyes. It smiled bitterly and said, "I see. No wonder, no wonder … since the Emperor wants me dead, then I have no choice but to die."
After saying this last sentence, the Hades Heavenly Ghost gave up struggling and completely merged into the black hole.
The members of the Huatian Palace looked at each other. A Hades Heavenly Ghost, which was comparable to a Ghost Emperor, had to be sacrificed for a sacrificial ritual. Everyone's expressions turned ugly. The situation was becoming more and more serious.
"What should we do? Should we immediately report this to the Spirit Realm? " Mo Qingge asked with a serious expression. The appearance of the Edict of the God of the Underworld was definitely not a small matter. Moreover, this matter involved the most mysterious Emperor of the Underworld — Emperor Wu You.
"The connection between the Huatian Palace Projection and the Huatian Palace has been cut off by the Edict of the God of the Underworld. We can't send back any information." Xiao Hongyu shook his head. With the Edict of the God of the Underworld enveloping them, it would be extremely difficult for them to escape from this cleft space.
Mo Wen smiled bitterly to himself. He had not expected that he would encounter such a serious matter on a random mission.
"It's still not enough."
After merging with the Hades Heavenly Ghost, Jiang Yan's eyes flickered. Then, he slowly looked towards the altar. A woman was imprisoned on the ninth level of the altar.
Jiang Yan waved his hand and the woman imprisoned in the mass of green light flew over and landed in his hand. It was none other than Xu Qianqian.
"Soul of the Ghost Mother, I have used the Edict of the God of the Underworld and countless spirits to grant you your wish. I hope that you can use the power of the Ghost Mother to construct the passageway between the two worlds and complete the final sacred sacrifice."
Jiang Yan looked at the sleeping Xu Qianqian. His expression became more and more dignified and solemn. He extended his hand and Xu Qianqian's body instantly shattered and turned into nothingness. However, a strange scene appeared. After Xu Qianqian's body shattered, another body seemed to grow out. Or rather, her soul was actually exactly the same as a normal person's body.
"Soul of the Ghost Mother! How is it possible to find such a woman in the Source World?" Xiao Hongyu exclaimed. (To be continued.)
