Such a thick yin energy, for ghost cultivators, was something that they could not wish for. However, such an abnormal change caused the hearts of all the ghost cultivators to be filled with terror. It was a type of terror towards the unknown.
Yu Ji pursed her lips, her hair blowing in the strong wind. The group of ghost generals behind her also had bewildered gazes, not knowing what was going to happen …
Shun Tian Island, Bi Changchun, who was sitting cross-legged in a large room, suddenly opened his eyes and suddenly disappeared from the room. When he reappeared, he was already standing at the edge of the Thousand Mile Lake, facing the direction of the Yin Wind Valley, holding a bright moon in one hand …
More accurately, it was a mirror that glowed with a bright white light. All of a sudden, the white light retracted back into the mirror. On the surface of the ancient and smooth mirror that was lined with vine patterns, the scene in front of the Nine Nether Cave suddenly appeared. Even the bewildered Yu Ji and the others appeared in the mirror.
The mirror floated in front of him. Bi Changchun frowned, his eyes filled with puzzlement. He clearly did not know what was going on …
Inside the Nine Netherworld Cave, after crossing the Netherworld Flame Sea, the majestic Underworld Gate let out a deep and heart palpitating sound. The gap of the gate gradually became larger, and the Netherworld Flame Sea that had been burning for who knows how many years began to violently shake. The chaotic airflow caused the various skeletal statues on the huge Underworld Iron Mountain to let out all kinds of cries. Men and women, old and young, large and small, the skeletal statues seemed to come to life, crying to someone about the misfortune of their previous life.
All kinds of cries gathered in the underground space, echoing endlessly, creating a scene of chaos.
If Yue Qianchou was here, he would definitely be shocked. The Underworld Gate that had been closed for who knows how many years was actually slowly opening …
When the majestic, thick, and dark Underworld Gate opened to a meter wide, it stopped moving. Behind the gate, there was a black light constantly rotating. Suddenly, two white lights flashed. With two "xiu xiu" sounds, the two white lights turned into two figures that stopped in front of the Underworld Gate.
Two white robed men that looked exactly the same appeared. Their faces were also snow white and pale, so pale that it was a bit abnormal, as if they were twin brothers. The two of them coldly looked around. After a long time, one of them slowly said, "Everything is normal."
Another person nodded and said, "Big Brother, why did the Underworld Emperor ask us to patrol the Underworld Ways of the seventy-two worlds?"
The former shook his head and said, "It was Lady Blackpool's idea."
Hearing this, the latter was taken aback and sighed, "Big Brother, have you noticed that because the Underworld Emperor doesn't get involved in the affairs of the Underworld, Lady Blackpool has been getting involved in more and more things? I'm afraid it's not a good thing."
"Shut up if you don't want to get into trouble." The former warned, "This is not something you and I should worry about. Don't say such things in the future."
"Got it." The latter shook his head helplessly. The former sized up his surroundings once more and said calmly, "Let's go. Let's go back." The two of them had just turned around when they suddenly shuddered at the same time. Their gazes burned as they stared at the Netherworld Gate.
Of the two knockers on the Gate of the Netherworld, only one remained. One of the Heaven-devouring Beast heads was missing not only a knocker, but two of its fangs were also missing. No one knew where they went.
After the two of them stared at it for a while, the latter said in bewilderment, "Look at the saw marks on it. It seems that it was cut off by someone."
The former was dumbfounded and speechless for a while. Then he murmured, "Who is so daring to destroy the things on the Gate of the Netherworld?"
The latter scratched his head and said, "Logically speaking, it's impossible! This is not a place that anyone can come to. The people of the Underworld can't open the Gate of the Netherworld from the inside without the token. And the mortals of the outside world can't pass through the Netherworld Fire Sea and come here. Could it be the work of the Ghost Cultivators in the human world? "
The former shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be the Ghost Cultivators. Once the Ghost Cultivators come here, their vitality will be burned away by the Netherworld Fire Sea and they can't return to the human world. Otherwise, their souls will be destroyed and they will never be able to reincarnate. The only way for the Ghost Cultivators to come here is to open the Gate of the Netherworld and return to the Underworld. Once they turn back, they will die. "
"It's not this and it's not that. What is going on? It can't fall down by itself, can it? Even if it fell down, we should still be able to see something on the ground! There are clear saw marks on it. Could it be … "The latter suddenly stopped talking.
The former turned his head and asked, "Could it be what?"
The latter looked around and said softly, "Big brother, don't you think this is a little strange? Why did Madam Blackpool have to patrol the 72 Underworld passages at this time? It just so happened that the Gate of the Netherworld here was destroyed. Could it be that someone inside was ordered to come out and do it … "
The former heard this and frowned deeply. After thinking for a long time, he said in a deep voice, "Don't make wild guesses. We just need to report it truthfully. We don't need to worry about other things. Let's go back! "
The two of them turned into two white lights and shot into the Gate of the Netherworld. They instantly disappeared into the black light that rotated like a disc-shaped flowing cloud. Not long after, the Gate of the Netherworld let out a dull sound that made people's hearts palpitate again and slowly closed. The moment the door closed, the underground space that had been created by the chaotic images slowly returned to normal.
Outside the Ninth Netherworld Cave, the surging strong wind suddenly gradually slowed down, and the ink-like Yin Qi also slowly withdrew. Very soon, everything returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.
Standing on the opposite cliff wall, Yu Ji and the group of ghost generals were looking at each other. None of them knew what was happening in the underworld cave. The group of ghost cultivators waited for a long time, but they didn't see any abnormal reaction. Yu Ji frowned and waved her hand, "We'll talk about it when we get back!" Then, the group of ghost cultivators quickly left the place.
Beside the Thousand Miles Lake on Shuntian Island, Bi Changchun waved his hand after the scene in the Mirror of Silence returned to normal. He waved his hand and kept the mirror as he looked at the sky with his hands behind his back. No one knew what he was thinking …
The vast Netherworld formed a world of its own. The ultimate place of birth, aging, sickness, and death was the Netherworld.
Twenty big blood-red words were engraved on a huge black stone tablet. They could be seen clearly from afar. The stone tablet and the ancient words revealed the vicissitudes of time. They were simple and unadorned, yet extraordinary. Anyone who saw it would have the urge to prostrate themselves in worship.
Under the base of the stone tablet that looked like a mountain, a gate slowly opened. Two white lights flashed and the gate slowly closed. The two people who appeared in front of the gate were the two white-robed men who appeared outside the gate to the Netherworld.
In front of the gate, there were two soldiers in iron armor guarding. They were tall and sturdy, their backs were strong and their waists were strong. Their eyes were wide like copper bells as they stared at the newcomers. The two white-robed men each turned to face a soldier and took out a green token the size of a palm. They said, "Liu Ben, Liu Pao, return to the Netherworld to report."
They took out the token to prove that they were not ghost cultivators from the outside world. The guards here only recognized the token. Without the token, they would be escorted to the Endless Dark Cliff to work as laborers.
One of the soldiers shouted in a booming voice, "Since you have the token, you are not allowed to stay. Leave quickly!" His loud voice echoed in the surroundings.
The two white-robed men didn't say anything else. They cupped their fists and turned into two white lights as they fled into the distance …
The two of them had been flying at high speed in the darkness. It was dark everywhere. Only the red flowing lava could be seen on the ground, mixed with the black smoke. On the path separating the ground from the lava, one could see a group of people working with thick iron chains with their upper arms bare.
The sun, moon, and stars could never be seen here, and the sky was always shrouded in darkness. This place was vast and boundless. Nobody knew how high the sky was or how wide the earth was. There was only endless darkness. It was because this was the Underworld, a world of its own!
In the vast depths that ordinary people couldn't know of, there were countless powerful overlords who carved out territories to carve out territories. Even though they had high cultivation states and powerful magic power, they had to submit to one person, the king of the entire Underworld … the Emperor of the Underworld!
As for the name of the Emperor of the Underworld, very few people knew it. Almost no one knew it. People only knew that he was called the Emperor of the Underworld. It was because the Emperor of the Underworld had existed for too long. All the overlords rose and fell. Only the Emperor of the Underworld existed forever in the Underworld. No one could challenge his authority.
Even though the Emperor of the Underworld rarely showed his power, and few people knew what he looked like, those who tried to challenge the Emperor of the Underworld were all killed. The Emperor of the Underworld was a figure that most people in the Underworld could only see once in their lives. Even if they saw him, no one would know that he was the Emperor of the Underworld.
The twin brothers, Liu Ben and Liu Pao, were very lucky. They knew what the Emperor of the Underworld looked like, because they had seen the Emperor of the Underworld, and because they worked in the Underworld Royal Palace. Even though their cultivation states were not high, and they were just small errand boys, they had seen the Emperor of the Underworld.
The towering Emperor of the Underworld Mountain! It had been standing there for countless years. Maybe it had been there since the beginning of time. It was the most sacred place in the entire Underworld. Because the most honorable and holy Emperor of the Underworld lived in the magnificent Underworld Royal Palace on the peak of the mountain!
On the Emperor of the Underworld Mountain, flowing lights were flying everywhere. They were fist-sized fireflies. Even though they looked ferocious, the light balls on their tails were unusually bright. It was these flying insects that illuminated the entire Emperor of the Underworld Mountain.
There were six mountain peaks on the Emperor of the Underworld Mountain. The Emperor of the Underworld was on the highest mountain peak. The other five mountain peaks were in the shape of a pentagram, surrounding and protecting the most sacred Emperor of the Underworld. Of course, there was also a magnificent palace on each of the other five mountain peaks. The masters of those palaces were all figures whose status was second only to the Emperor of the Underworld.
However, there were differences in status among the five masters. The master who lived on the first mountain to the left of the Emperor of the Underworld was the one with the most power and the highest status among the five masters, besides the Emperor of the Underworld. For many years, the Emperor of the Underworld rarely showed up and interfered with anything. Most of the affairs were handled by this master.
Liu Ben and Liu Pao landed on this mountain peak. To be exact, they landed outside the gate of the palace on the mountain peak. Even though they worked in the Emperor of the Underworld, they didn't dare to trespass this palace … the Dark Palace of Madam Hei Chi!
