When a Yin Spirit traveled, especially a Yin Spirit with a high level of cultivation, its speed was even faster than a steed.
Wu Ming moved like a gust of wind. In an instant, he was already dozens of feet away, disappearing in a few flashes.
The dog-headed man and the vengeful spirits from before seemed to be an illusion. The gray fog surged, and the hill returned to silence.
"Moo! Moo! "
After an unknown period of time, a deep and penetrating bull's roar came from afar. It was unusually fast and fierce.
"Boom!"
The black fog surged like thousands of waves, and a vortex appeared in the middle.
The gray vortex was deep and bottomless. Two lantern-sized lights suddenly appeared, and soon, a huge bull's head popped out, with a black iron ring on its nose.
The bull's head sniffed twice, and a very human-like expression of anger appeared. "What demon is this? How dare you ignore the Black Mountain Master's ban and recklessly expiate the vengeful spirits? "
"Bang! Bang! "
As it spoke, the demon god finally pulled its body out of the black vortex. Two huge ox hooves stepped on the ground, and in the middle was a human torso covered in black fur. It held a huge iron hairpin in its hand, and it looked ferocious and mighty. It was somewhat similar to the legendary ox-headed demon. Although the wild dog person from before was huge, compared to it, it paled in comparison.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
Two thick white gas came out of its nostrils, and it fell to the ground, setting off a gust of wind.
"Who is this Daoist? I won't let you go! "
The demon roared, and its voice shook the surroundings, causing the surrounding ghosts to curl up. It sniffed again, and turned into a black whirlwind, rushing away.
…
"This Underworld is quite ominous!"
Wu Ming did not know that there was a demon coming to deal with him.
He used a spell, and after traveling a thousand miles in a day, he stopped and looked around.
The Underworld was vast and boundless. He traveled a thousand miles with his Yin Spirit, but the scenery around him was no different from when he first arrived. However, he saw all kinds of ghosts.
There were headless ghosts, tongue-tied ghosts, drowned ghosts, and the rarer hungry ghosts, snake ghosts, and so on. He saw them all.
Of course, what shocked Wu Ming even more was the environment.
The entire Underworld was like a barren desert. There was no peaceful place where ghosts could rest in peace.
In fact, water was foul water, and drinking it would make one thirsty. Rocks were sharp rocks, and touching them would cause pain. Even the ground was constantly emitting an 'evil aura' that could torture ghosts!
"Did I guess wrong from the start? This isn't the Underworld, but some kind of hell? "
Wu Ming looked as far as he could and saw a few weak spots of light in the darkness. When he got closer, he saw some short shrubs and dilapidated houses.
These places, where ghosts could rest in peace, had long been occupied by powerful malicious ghosts. When they saw Wu Ming coming over, they all looked at him with vigilant eyes and occasionally let out threatening roars.
"This place has some minor sacrifices, and only then can it become a slightly good place. However, it is also proof that this is the underworld!"
Wu Ming didn't rob these poor ghosts of their residences. Instead, he scratched his head in confusion.
The Underworld was boundless. Usually, an earth temple with a radius of a few feet in the Yang Realm could form a palace in the Underworld. In fact, a shrine could be a big house, and a stick of incense could be a good place.
These good places with good Earth Qi were obviously formed by a few sticks of incense in the Yang Realm.
With these characteristics, it must be the Underworld without a doubt.
"This is really strange … This Underworld looks like hell. Could it be that the people living in the Yang Realm are all sinners who must come down to suffer once they die?"
"It's just that these ghosts, malicious ghosts, and malicious ghosts are all muddle-headed. I can't ask them anything. I should find a few ghosts to communicate with …"
Wu Ming muttered to himself. He didn't look at the malicious ghosts that occupied the good places anymore. He turned around and left.
"Hiss, hiss …"
The ghost that occupied the area was a giant python that was dozens of feet long. The snake's head was the shape of a beautiful woman, and the tip of its tongue was forked. Seeing that Wu Ming had left, its eyes were filled with greed and desire.
However, the flames on Wu Ming's body and the terrifying Spiritual Pressure made it flinch.
The laws of the Yin Realm were obvious. Providence, Divine Powers, and Divine Soul cultivation were all transformed into the flames of Spiritual Pressure, which was the most direct manifestation of one's strength.
With Wu Ming's cultivation and providence, he was comparable to some ghosts and deities. Naturally, no one dared to offend him.
And this was only a Daoist Master.
If it was a Perfected Person who came down, he would be able to turn the place he passed into a peaceful Blessed Land with just a thought.
"Hmm … I should find a good God. At least it's easier to talk to him!"
Wu Ming opened his Heavenly Eye.
His Divine Powers were even more powerful when he used it with his Yin Spirit. Moreover, the Ghost God of the Underworld didn't bother to hide its Divine Light, so he could see everything at a glance.
At this moment, he deliberately found a high place to look. As far as his eyes could see, there was a vast expanse of darkness. Countless grayish-black gas sank into it, unable to transcend for hundreds or even thousands of years. Compared to the so-called purgatory on earth, it was countless times more miserable.
Nearby, there were a few colorful flames of Divine Power that shot up into the sky. They were full of majesty and suppressed the surroundings like fierce beasts dividing their territories.
However, there were a few of them mixed with black gas. They were fierce and domineering, and there was a vague shape of beasts. They were either monsters or ferocious ghosts. Wu Ming's eyebrows twitched when he saw them.
Only in the southeast corner, there was a faint white gas that turned into a mysterious light. Although it was weak, it had an indomitable aura that protected a corner.
"Although there is still a little grayish-black gas, you're the tallest of the short ones!"
Wu Ming identified the direction and immediately headed southeast.
…
Boom!
The huge iron hairpin fell and instantly smashed everything in its way into two.
The black and ferocious iron hairpin with barbs went straight into the ground, destroying a few weak traces of Earth Qi and turning this kind land into an evil land again.
Hiss!
Seeing this, the female ghost with a human head and a snake body was furious. Although she was afraid before, at this moment, she suddenly pounced forward with the anger of her house being destroyed.
"Hmph! Little snake ghost, how dare you talk to me? You're like a mantis trying to stop a chariot! "
Ox-head snorted coldly. Its two millstone-sized palms directly grabbed the snake ghost's head and tail and suddenly pulled.
Crack!
Amidst the snake ghost's sorrowful cry, its long snake-like body was immediately split into two. The beautiful woman's head showed pain, but there was no blood at the cut, only traces of black gas hanging down.
Creak!
Seeing this scene, an ominous glint flashed in Ox-head's eyes. It grabbed the snake's tail and opened its mouth, revealing a mouth full of fangs.
The creaking sound did not stop. After a while, the snake ghost disappeared without a trace.
"The taste is not bad!"
Ox-head patted its stomach in satisfaction. Its nose, which was pierced with iron rings, twitched. "What a pity! That Daoist only stayed for a short while and left again …
"With the power of a god, it's a little difficult for me to hunt down this cunning Daoist …"
With that thought, the Ox-head immediately roared at the sky.
"Moo, moo!"
Waves of sound continuously spread outwards. The ground was flipped open, and the power was terrifying to the extreme. Moreover, it seemed to be releasing some kind of information.
After a while, streams of black gas swarmed over and turned into ghosts that knelt down. "Greetings, Envoy of Black Mountain!"
"Go and inform the ghosts and gods nearby that I am chasing after a Daoist. I order those who see him to immediately take him down and report to me. Otherwise, I will treat him as an accomplice! Immediately turn to ashes! "
Ox-head opened its mouth and licked its lips, issuing a terrifying threat.
"Yes! We will definitely bring the news! "
The little ghosts all shuddered and quickly ran away, afraid that if they were not careful, they would become Ox-head's meal like the snake ghost.
…
"This is the place!"
On the other side, Wu Ming arrived at a place where gray fog surged.
He was in the middle of three small mountains, and the canyon surrounded a depression. However, there was a layer of mysterious light surging, bringing with it spiritual pressure. Not only did it chase away wandering souls and wild ghosts, but it also served as a defense.
"There's actually an array formation?"
Wu Ming could not help but laugh. Although in his eyes, this array formation was extremely crude, it was quite good for the Underworld.
If he stretched out his hand now, he could obviously break this array formation. However, he was not here to be a guest, but to make enemies.
Wu Ming thought for a while, grabbed a few pieces of soil on the ground, and blew on it. A small paper crane slowly appeared. Its eyes were dark, and there was a hint of intelligence. It nodded at him and flew into the mysterious light.
Not long after, the mysterious light opened from the middle, and two boys and girls came out to welcome him. "I didn't know that distinguished guests were coming. My master has neglected you, please forgive him!"
Although the two boys and girls had their hair in a bun, they were dressed brightly, and their faces were smeared with rouge, their every move was like a living person, but Wu Ming saw through them at a glance, "En? Two burning paper dolls. It seems that this master is quite careful! "
However, he was also clear that his origin was unknown. If he rashly left the array and was captured, what should he do?
It was the instinct of an old fox to be careful.
"However … if he thinks that he can rely on this array formation to protect himself, it's a little wishful thinking!"
Wu Ming shook his head in his heart, but his face was calm and indifferent. "I'm an outsider, passing by a treasured place. Sorry to disturb you!"
He walked in without hesitation.
There was a house in the valley. There were five rows of buildings, and it was quite grand.
"I am Jiang Guan. Greetings, Taoist Master!"
In front of the house, an old man dressed in official robes stood. He had three strands of long beard, and his face was kind. There was a foot-long flame on his body. He led a large family and bowed to Wu Ming. "I have been living here for a long time, and I don't know much about the world. I didn't expect to meet you today. Please come in and have some tea!"
"Thank you!"
Wu Ming sized up the surroundings, yet he saw that the valley was like spring all year round, and it was filled with beautiful flowers. It was like a small paradise that blocked the bone-piercing winds of the outside world, and he couldn't help but praise it in his heart. Only then did he cupped his hands and slowly walked into the house.
"I was a High Scholar. After I died, I had a spirit, and I was worshipped. That's why I built this place to support my family. Please excuse me!"
After welcoming Wu Ming to the main hall, they sat down according to the host and guest. Jiang Guan smiled.
