Popping Sheep shrunk his neck and looked around with his black beady eyes.
So strange, he had a bad premonition.
"What's wrong?" Yun Sheng noticed Popping's strange behavior.
"Dearest master, Popping hates this place. I always feel like someone is watching us." Popping Sheep curled his lips and nimbly slipped into Yun Sheng's clothes.
"The Underworld is different from the Human Realm. You're probably not acclimatized." Yun Sheng didn't mind. She followed the crowd and walked through the Dong Wei Gate.
When Yun Sheng was being interrogated, she deliberately asked the skeleton soldiers at the Dong Wei Gate where the Netherworld Ghost King lived.
Who knew that when the skeleton soldiers heard Yun Sheng asking about the Netherworld Ghost King's whereabouts, they glared at her fiercely. Not only did they not answer, they even urged her to leave.
"Dearest master, that smelly World Deity of the Underworld and the Netherworld Ghost King have been rivals for many years. These skeleton soldiers are the subordinates of the World Deity of the Underworld. It is indeed inappropriate to ask them about the Netherworld Ghost King's whereabouts. "After Popping broke out of his shell, his memory slowly recovered and he roughly knew about the Underworld.
The existence of the World Deity was to maintain the balance between the worlds.
For example, the Netherworld Ghost Key, a godly tool that could break the barrier between worlds, its existence itself was against the will of the World Deity. And the one who created the Netherworld Ghost Key was the Netherworld Ghost King.
The reason why the Netherworld Ghost King and the World Deity of the Underworld were able to coexist peacefully for so many years was not because they were good friends or got along well, but because the Netherworld Ghost King's strength was not ordinary.
Thus, although he and the World Deity of the Underworld appeared to be the two giants of the Underworld, they secretly disliked each other.
As a result, the subordinates of the two sides also disliked each other.
Moreover, the Netherworld Ghost King's temperament was erratic and he didn't have a fixed residence. Sometimes, he might even wander to other worlds. It was really not easy to find him.
"This way, it will be much harder to find the Netherworld Ghost King." Yun Sheng was in a difficult position. She wondered if she should directly use the Netherworld Ghost Key to summon the Netherworld Ghost King.
But when she thought of Ji Rumo's warning that it was best not to use the Netherworld Ghost Key, she hesitated.
"Dear master, you don't have to worry too much. Although the Phantasm Ghost King's whereabouts are erratic, there is a place in the Underworld called the Divine Ability Pavilion. It is said that as long as one can afford it, one can obtain any information there. However, the Magical Abilities Pavilion is only located in the capital cities of the few large counties in the Underworld. We have to reach the nearest capital city first before we can find the Magical Abilities Pavilion. "Popping Sheep's words reminded Yun Sheng.
Yun Sheng first bought a map of the underworld from the skeleton soldiers at the Dongwei Gate.
After checking the map, Yun Sheng realized that the Underworld was very different from the human world. In the Underworld, there were no fixed countries. There were only eight Underworld counties.
Different Nether Counties were guarded by different local forces.
Since she was heading to the Magical Abilities Pavilion, Yun Sheng had to head to the Dark Commandery, Jimo Commandery, which was closest to the Dong Wei Gate.
Most people who entered the Underworld from the Dong Wei Gate would first stop at Jimo Commandery.
Yun Sheng noticed that there was a large forest called Wei Wu between Jimo Commandery and the Dong Wei Gate. The forest spanned across several mountain ranges and was hundreds of miles long.
It was daybreak now. If they hurried, they might be able to reach Jimo Commandery in three days.
Yun Sheng looked at the map and planned whether she should set off immediately.
Yun Sheng did not know that after she put away the gold coins and passed through the Dong Wei Gate, a few pairs of eyes with ill intentions stared at her.
A single young woman was extremely eye-catching even in the Boundless Land, not to mention in a place like the Underworld where the ratio of men to women was as high as ten to one.
"Tsk tsk, what a beautiful woman. I didn't expect that there would be such good goods in this batch of newcomers. Big Brother, we are going to be rich this time." The people who were secretly peeping at Yun Sheng were more than ten warriors and magicians.
All of them had ugly heads and rat eyes. One look and one could tell that they were not good people.
As the Dong Wei Gate was the first important place for criminals from the human world to arrive in the Underworld, there were always some ruffians and villains who specialized in making money.
Most of them belonged to a dark sect called the Thousand Yama Sect. They gathered around the Dong Wei Gate all year round and looked for newcomers who did not know about the situation in the Underworld. After luring them to a remote place, they would rob, kill, and commit all kinds of crimes.
These warriors and magicians who had their eyes on Yun Sheng were from the Thousand Yama Sect.
"Isn't that so? The Dong Wei Gate is good in everything, but there are too few living women. On the other hand, there are many beautiful female ghosts in the Dong Wei Gate. It's a pity that humans and ghosts walk different paths. We can't be friends with female ghosts. "As they spoke, those Thousand Yama Sect members had a covetous look on their faces.
"That woman's strength is not much. Big Brother, let's lure her into the Wei Fog Forest first and have a good time. After that, we'll sell her to the Gold Squandering House." The underlings seemed to have already seen countless soul stones dangling in front of their eyes.
These underlings were able to move around in this area, so they naturally had good eyesight. They had already noticed that there was a punishment brand on the back of Yun Sheng's hand. However, that brand only had the word "ten" on it.
The punishment brand that the Four-sided Hell Flood Dragon left on a felon represented the number of people that the felon had killed. The more people killed, the more evil the felon had committed. Generally speaking, this also meant that the felon would be able to survive in the Underworld.
Yun Sheng's magic brand only had the word "ten" on it. In the eyes of these ruffians in the capital of Dong Wei, she was undoubtedly a weak felon. They did not know who she had offended, but she was actually exiled to a place like the Underworld. Among them, even the worst person was responsible for thirty to forty lives.
Yun Sheng kept the map. Just as she was about to stand up, she frowned. Five or six people suddenly appeared beside her.
"What business do you have with me?" Yun Sheng was on guard. Fighting was not allowed near the Dong Wei Gate. From the looks of it, these people did not look like newcomers to the Underworld.
"Miss, this one is Piercing Tiger from the Thousand Hell Sect. From the looks of it, you're going to the Wei Fog Forest, right? That forest is not simple. The terrain inside is complicated, and there are many terrifying demonic plants. Many people who enter the forest never come out. It would not be good if a delicate girl like you got hurt. " The leader of the group was a warrior in his thirties. His skin had a metallic luster, and his Dou Qi cultivation was quite good.
"Thousand Hell Sect?" Yun Sheng secretly sized up these people. She saw that they were all wearing warrior robes and magician robes of the same color. On their chests, there was a golden mask of Yama, baring its fangs.
"The Thousand Hell Sect is one of the three major powers in Jimo Region. Miss, you only need to pay a hundred ninth level magical beast soul stones, and we will send you to Jimo Region. Look, there are dozens of newcomers over there. They have already entrusted us to escort them along the way. "As he spoke, that person pointed behind him. Indeed, there were many warriors and magicians who had just arrived in the Underworld gathered together, waiting to depart.
