A waning moon shone on a lonely city. A good man went on a long journey, experienced the mountains of knives and seas of fire in hell, passed through the endless abyss of the Ultimate, and returned home once again.
There were thousands of words, but there was no need to pour them out. As long as they looked at each other and smiled, all their longing and pain were comforted.
No longer thinking or roaring, he put down the burden on his body and stopped looking up at the sky.
To sleep peacefully in her lap on this warm, fine night, and dream a lighter dream.
Under the pale moonlight, Little Ann gently stroked his face and twirled a long string of prayer beads, passing the news of the return of the Demon King to the Heavenly Kings.
Demonic Beast Path
The Great Kun was struggling to move its long wing-like fins, swimming into the deep sea. Its body was covered with wounds, and it had just escaped a hunt. The dragon's roar still echoed in its ears.
The sea had always been the territory of the Dragon Clan. If there was a blacklist of the most unpopular creatures, the Great Kun would definitely be at the top.
For her cultivation, she could not leave the sea. Therefore, most of the time, she lived a life of hiding and narrowly escaped death countless times. She did not look as carefree as she seemed.
In this natural world where survival of the fittest prevailed, as long as one was not a top hunter, they had to be prepared to become prey. This was the price of freedom, and it was not something the weak could afford.
Resting in a large canyon, she received the news and smiled, "It's good that you're back!"
In the depths of the canyon, a pair of cold eyes suddenly lit up. Thousands of tentacles slowly stretched out in the ravine, and without stirring up any water, they enveloped her like a huge net.
A new round of hunting had begun …
Asura Path
Wind and smoke rolled the flag, and the war drums shook the stars.
Luo Hou Xiaoming was in a fierce battle, but the situation was very unfavorable. The army under his command was retreating, and the military aura condensed on his body was rapidly weakening. He could not fight against the Asura Sovereign who was protected by the God of War.
Asura's cultivation method was never through seclusion, but through endless bloody battles, he became an undefeatable god of war.
If he did not challenge the strong, there was no meaning in fighting. Blindly bullying the weak would damage his fighting spirit and he would lose the blessing of heaven.
However, "challenging the strong" was easy to say, but it was simply self-torture.
In order to avoid exposing his identity, he couldn't use any of the Rahu Clan's power, which was tantamount to fighting against someone stronger than him while shackled. As a result, they were often defeated. It was only because of the providence that they never died in battle.
But this good luck came to an end.
His current opponent was an Asura Battle God, whose realm was equivalent to a Man Deity or an Evil God, but his combat power was enough to crush an ordinary Man Deity or an Evil God.
Of course, the other party disdained to attack him directly. At first, they sent people to surrender and wanted to take him in as a general. He was the Asura Sovereign who was often defeated but never died, so he was quite famous in this area.
Naturally, he was not convinced. The Asura Battle God did not waste any more words and sent out the Asura Emperor under his command to encircle and suppress him.
As his cultivation level recovered, he no longer cared about ordinary Asura Sovereigns. After a few rounds of counterattacks, not only were they not exterminated, but they also grew stronger.
That Asura Battle God became even more interested in him. He personally commanded the army to surround and annihilate him. In addition to the dozen or so Asura Sovereigns who took turns to challenge him, he was no longer a match for them. Now, he was heavily surrounded.
This time, even if he had the providence, he might not be able to escape. Even if the Asura Battle God did not attack directly, he had the providence that did not lose to him, which was enough to offset his advantage.
Either surrender or die in battle, there was no third option.
Now that he received this information, it was like he was saved from death.
"What, he recovered his memory! What, his primordial spirit went through six God's Trials! Doesn't that mean he split up! Whatever, let him help me fight! "
The Kings fought on their own. No one's life was smooth sailing. They had to overcome all obstacles for a dream.
Primordial spirit left the body!
Li Qingshan glanced at his sleeping self, smiled at Little Ann, and left the Hungry Ghost Realm. He returned to the Xuan Ming Cave Mansion, entered the Asura Realm, and looked up at the blood red sky.
"War, war will never change!"
Once again, he set off on his journey towards the faraway battlefield.
…
A thousand miles away from Wu Hua City was a vast forest. There was not a single leaf on the dead trees, and there were piles of white bones under the trees.
The forest was deathly silent, and no ghouls dared to approach.
And in the deepest part of the forest, there was an inconspicuous tree with an inconspicuous burl protruding from it. Embedded in it was a lustrous white bead that looked like a white eyeball.
If one lay prone on it and observed carefully, they would find that it looked like a skull, and it seemed to be laughing strangely.
That was Little Ann's Skull Prayer Bead. The reason why it was left here was to keep an eye on it.
If one were to dive into the white bones and black soil, deep underground, they would see a gloomy and vast underground palace.
The aura of death and the aura of yin were stagnant, forming a substantial flocculus. Not to mention this deep underground, even on a clear day, one would not be able to see their own fingers.
This place was like a tomb, or a tomb. The entire Hungry Ghost Realm was made up of tombs like this, where countless failed cultivators and fallen souls were buried.
This tomb was called "Wu Hua Palace", and it was the resting place of Wu Hua Ghost Immortal.
Taking advantage of this old ghost's slumber, Li Qingshan and Little Ann worked together to take over Wu Hua City. The Ghost Emperors and Corpse Emperors were either dead or surrendered, and they were almost all captured in one fell swoop. All of them became Little Ann's resources.
Thus, a Skull Prayer Bead had to be placed here to prevent this "victim" from suddenly waking up.
Although this old ghost slept for a hundred years and woke for a hundred years, and there were still more than thirty years before he woke up, it was better to be safe than sorry. The Hungry Ghost Realm's Heavenly Mandate was quite hostile to her, a descendant of white bones.
Of course, they weren't good people either. Thirty years later, even if the old ghost didn't come looking for trouble with them, they would still drag this guy out to burn the fire.
A black stone coffin hung upside down in the center of the underground palace. Below it was a dark and deep abyss that seemed to lead straight to the underworld.
This was a node where the veins of the earth intertwined. If this was a normal world, it would definitely be a famous mountain and great river that was filled with Spiritual Qi. It was the most suitable place to build a cave abode. However, in this Hungry Ghost Realm, there was no Spiritual Qi to speak of. There was only Yin Qi and Death Qi that constantly surged out from the abyss and seeped into the stone coffin.
On this day, a strange rumbling sound came from the abyss. Dismembered corpses rustled down, and the stone coffin shook slightly.
Since many years ago, or more accurately, since the day Li Qingshan and Little Ann conquered Wu Hua City, there had been frequent earthquakes here.
It seemed to be a natural phenomenon caused by the movement of the earth's crust, and it just happened to happen at this time.
Earthquakes were the product of a series of coincidences. Perhaps it was just the shattering of a piece of rock that affected the stress structure of the entire plate, and in the end, it became an earth-shattering earthquake.
However, the tremors gradually subsided, and the stone coffin that swayed like a pendulum gradually calmed down and became motionless.
This Wu Hua underground palace itself was an indestructible formation, so it was not afraid of earthquakes at all. Even if the mountains outside collapsed and the earth cracked, there would not be much movement inside.
It would be too laughable if the abode of a Ghost Immortal were to be destroyed in an earthquake. Wu Hua Ghost Immortal was in a deep sleep, so he naturally would not be awakened by such a small commotion.
However, the situation seemed to be a little different this time.
The Death Qi and Yin Qi gradually weakened, and before long, they completely disappeared.
The stone coffin suddenly opened up a gap!
A pitch-black shadow poked its head out from within. It had no eyes, ears, mouth, or nose, and was just a black shadow. It was Wu Hua Ghost Immortal.
He released a wisp of Divine Perception and quickly scanned the entire abyss. He discovered that the direction of the earth veins had changed.
He was obviously stunned. The earth veins were equivalent to the internal meridians of a world. Unlike the mountains and rivers on the surface, the speed at which they changed was very slow.
Because the Hungry Ghost Realm was constantly devouring and expanding, it was slightly faster than the average world, but it would still take at least a million years to change.
Even if one moved mountains and filled seas, or directly changed the terrain, it would still be very difficult to affect the direction of the earth veins. It would require precise calculations.
However, the continuous earthquakes had subtly changed the direction of the earth veins, and it just happened to cut off the Earth Qi of Wu Hua Palace.
Was it a coincidence? However, he instinctively felt that things were not that simple.
As a Ghost Immortal, he could already understand the laws of nature. Moreover, over the long period of time, he could see more and more clearly. Divination was as natural as seeing with his eyes and hearing with his ears.
However, this divination was inexplicably easier than any other time.
"There's a change in Wu Hua City!"
