"Little Gray has split and reproduced?"
On the way to The Underworld, Jiang Nan sensed that there were suddenly three more war beasts that were connected to him.
He had modified the arrays in the minds of the war beasts and added his own imprint. Therefore, they were like his treasures. He knew every move of the beasts like the back of his hand.
These beasts were created by the Heaven Battling Demon Venerate. They could replicate themselves without the need for reproduction. Most amazingly, the newly born war beasts also had the same spiritual imprint in their minds.
In other words, if you were the master of the war beasts, then the descendants of the war beasts would also worship you as their master!
This was the strength of the Heaven Battling Demon Venerate. Jiang Nan had seen with his own eyes how terrifying the war beasts were when they wreaked havoc in the Yinglong Great World. At that time, the Heaven Battling Demon Venerate had released the war beasts. These beasts had devoured many of the suns and moons of the Yinglong Great World's main continent. There was nothing they did not eat. They had even devoured tens of millions of miles of the main continent, causing a huge chunk of the main continent to disappear!
These beasts reproduced as they ate, replicating and splitting themselves. Their numbers increased until there were more than a million of them. If not for Yinglong Great World's ancestor's timely intervention, the entire Yinglong Great World would have been devoured by these beasts!
Jiang Nan was not the Heaven Battling Demon Venerate. He would not let the war beasts devour other living beings. However, now that the war beasts had reached the level of gods and demons, it was time for them to split themselves.
"In time, these war beasts will continue to split and reproduce. I will also have an army of war beasts comparable to gods and demons. I will ride these beasts to graze. It will definitely be a spectacular sight!"
During these few days of travel, Jiang Nan had heard many interesting rumors. The first one was about him. Some people said that he had obtained a Heavenly Dao fragment and was wanted all over the world. Many powerful holy lands and families had even put up a bounty for him. If anyone could provide Jiang Nan's whereabouts, these holy lands and families would reward them handsomely.
The second piece of news was also about the Heavenly Dao fragment. Rumor had it that Hua Zhenyuan, the divine body of the Nine Extremes Lang Garden, had also obtained a Heavenly Dao fragment. It had also attracted the bounty of many great factions.
The third piece of news was related to a Heavenly Dao Fragment. It was rumored that the Sima family's young expert, Sima Duanming, who possessed a Sovereign Bloodline, had also obtained a Heavenly Dao Fragment. Even though the Sima family was a God Emperor family and had produced a God Emperor, Sima Duanming had a bounty on him.
The fourth piece of news was the Heavenly Dao fragment. It was rumored that the Clear Sky Sacred Sect's Sovereign Divine Body, Young Master Hao, had also obtained two Heavenly Dao fragments.
The fifth piece of news was also a Heavenly Dao fragment. It was rumored that a fat Daoist had also obtained a Heavenly Dao fragment.
…
In total, Jiang Nan had heard a total of 12 similar pieces of news, and all of them were related to Heavenly Dao fragments. Treasures that were originally rare in the world seemed to have suddenly become cabbages that could be found everywhere.
Regardless of whether it was Hua Zhenyuan, Sima Duanming, or Young Master Hao and the others, they were all from factions that were more powerful than the Ancient Sacred City of the Ancients and the Si family of the Northern Desert. These people were also the most outstanding disciples and descendants of these factions. One could imagine how big of a commotion this news would cause when it came out!
In comparison, the news that Jiang Nan had obtained a Heavenly Dao fragment was not so eye-catching.
According to the rumor, Hua Zhenyuan, Sima Duanming, Young Master Hao, and the others had entered the tomb of an Ultimate God together. In the end, they had discovered something. The deceased Ultimate God had actually collected 12 Heavenly Dao fragments and used them to entrust his Dao Laws.
After the Ultimate God died, the Dharma treasure that he had refined was broken, and the Heavenly Dao fragments were scattered in the tomb, causing a bloody battle.
In the end, Hua Zhenyuan, Young Master Hao, Sima Duanming, and the others each obtained one.
"Fellow Sanque once said that he was trapped in the tomb of an Ultimate God. Could the fat Taoist who obtained the Heavenly Dao fragment be him?"
Jiang Nan was shocked. "It's a pity that I was held up by Taihuang Laozu and couldn't personally dig up the tomb. Otherwise, even if I couldn't obtain the Heavenly Dao fragment, it would be good to see those young talents."
It was a good thing for him that so many Heavenly Dao fragments had appeared at once. After all, he was not famous. Even if others wanted to find him, they would not be able to. The other people were bigger targets. In comparison, Hua Zhenyuan and the others would probably have a bigger headache.
He also heard another rumor that a woman in white drove an ice palace to chase after Young Master Hao and the others. She had forced Hua Zhenyuan, Young Master Hao, and the other young experts who had obtained the Heavenly Dao fragment into a miserable state.
The woman in white fluttered. Wherever the tip of her feet passed, the ground was frozen, and frost fell from the sky. All living creatures were frozen into ice and sealed in the mysterious ice.
Wherever she passed, it was as if a great calamity had befallen them. There were few signs of life. Many forces began to retreat. They gathered all their disciples to guard their sects and used their god's treasures to resist the invasion of the cold air.
Young Master Hao and the others were in a difficult situation. They almost died in the hands of this woman. In the end, the experts of Clear Sky Saint Sect came to help. They even asked a Divine Master to help and finally forced the woman to retreat.
Then, there were experts living in seclusion in Middle Sky World who warned her to restrain her aura. Otherwise, they would interfere with her actions. Only then did the woman restrain herself.
Recently, there was another rumor that this woman was looking for the traces of another young man. She took down Jiang Nan's portrait and looked at it carefully.
"That young man called Jiang Nan, who was able to barge into my sleeping palace and steal my treasures, I think we will meet again."
Someone once heard her talking to herself. The news was shocking. "Is Kōmu God Emperor finally going to fall? Maybe this Kōmu Era Tribulation is a good chance for me to break through. My million years of sleep were not in vain … "
"This woman in white can't be the master of Mystical Lady Ice Palace, right?"
Jiang Nan blinked his eyes and thought, "She is looking for news about me? This is not a good thing … "
Unknowingly, he finally came to the vicinity of The Underworld. Looking from afar, he saw demonic qi floating in The Underworld. The aura of death was gloomy as if it was shrouded in a layer of fog. He could even vaguely see the gloomy sun and moon within the aura of death and demonic qi. They were huge and hung within the aura of death. It was eerie and terrifying.
There was a dilapidated divine mountain there. It was mottled and revealed the traces of the passage of time. There were large snakes with flesh wings on their backs that slithered in the aura of death, searching for living things.
Strange roars rose and fell. In that world, there was only one color, and that was gray. Gray sky, gray ground, gray sun and moon, gray living things.
"After the death of the God Emperor who cultivated demonic arts, the mausoleum turned this place into hell on earth …"
There were too many legends about The Underworld. It was said that the master of The Underworld was one of the strongest God Emperor. He was in a state where he was neither dead nor alive. The mausoleum turned into The Underworld. The reason why the mausoleum appeared in the world was to attract people to go there and explore. He wanted to take their life force and increase his lifespan.
Some said that the expansion of The Underworld was because a demon emperor from hell came here personally after the death of God Emperor. He used a great mystique to plant a demonic seed. The demonic seed nibbled away at God Emperor's dao laws and used God Emperor's corpse as nourishment to absorb the heaven and earth spiritual qi of Zhongtian World.
The demonic seed was waiting to appear and swallow the myriad worlds, turning them into hell.
Some said that the God Emperor created the eighteen levels of hell. He wanted to merge the myriad worlds and hell into one. He wanted to create the three realms of heaven, earth and human. He was unable to fulfill this great ambition before he died, and he was unwilling to die. Thus, the Underworld continued to expand, but it was the God Emperor's obsession that caused mischief. He planned to transform the Culmination World into a hell to fulfill his wish when he was alive.
…
All kinds of rumors were very convincing. Every one of them seemed to be highly credible, but none of them could be trusted. After all, in the legends, no one had been able to step into the eighteen levels of The Underworld and uncover the secrets of The Underworld.
As soon as Jiang Nan stepped into the Underworld Earth, he felt the surging Devil Qi and Corpse Qi assaulting him. The Devil Qi made him feel like a fish in the water, while the Corpse Qi began to invade his corporeal body, arcane energy, divine sense, and divine soul.
On the other hand, the devilish nature hidden deep within the Netherworld started to disturb his Dao Heart, and it was even to the extent that it formed numerous devils that came and went without a trace in his mind. They overturned the seas and bewitched him, and they revealed a myriad of illusions in his mind to tempt him to fall.
These demons were formed from the demonic nature of The Underworld God Emperor. They were invisible and intangible. They came and went without a trace. When others came here, they would usually choose a Buddhist treasure. They would use the Buddha's light to illuminate their hearts. They would maintain the purity of their hearts and prevent the demons from invading.
However, Jiang Nan's heart was unguarded. He allowed these demons to invade his mind. Fighting against the demons in his mind was an excellent way to train his Dao heart.
He had to resist all kinds of temptations and threats. He had to witness all kinds of strange illusions. Some were gloomy and terrifying, some were rich and powerful, some were seduced by beauties, and some were falling into hell. His Dao heart was broken. He understood the essence of life and death. The demons would perish on their own.
The space between his eyebrows had long become an incomparably huge battlefield. Countless demons surged in wave after wave. They were often unable to tempt Jiang Nan to fall. Instead, they were obliterated by his Dao heart. They were advancing wave after wave.
Outside, there were also demons formed by the demonic nature of The Underworld God Emperor. They wreaked havoc in The Underworld. These demons were tainted with the corpse Qi of God Emperor. They were terrifying.
For example, the flesh-winged serpent that Jiang Nan had seen before was one of them.
He was attacked by dozens of demons from The Underworld. These demons from The Underworld were extremely powerful. They were comparable to experts in the sixth or seventh tier of the Heavenly Palace. However, Jiang Nan was now comparable to gods and demons. It was not difficult for him to deal with these demons from The Underworld.
In this kind of place, there was no lack of people who came to train. He met two or three groups of people in the outskirts of the Underworld Earth. Each group had dozens of people, and all of them had extraordinary cultivation. There were even peerless experts overseeing the group, guiding them in cultivation and fighting. They should be disciples from big clans or sects.
Even for clans with strong foundations, there would be people who would be attacked by the demonic nature from time to time. They would go crazy on the spot and kill without distinguishing between friend and foe. Every time something like this happened, the peerless experts overseeing would kill the person who had been demonized.
"He dares to go deep into the The Underworld alone?"
A peerless expert from a holy land sensed something and looked at Jiang Nan. He saw a youth walking in this dusky world. He said in surprise, "Is he an ascetic cultivator from some large faction?"
A disciple suggested, "Martial Uncle, in front of us should be the place where Xing Chi Buddha is suppressing the The Underworld. We've been training for so long. Why don't we rest there?"
Just as the supreme expert was about to nod, a gray moon silently flew over their heads. There seemed to be living creatures wriggling on the moon. All of a sudden, a black cloud rose from the moon and silently flew towards them.
"Not good! It's a moon demon bat. Let's go! "That peerless expert's expression changed. He hurriedly shouted and led everyone away.
Jiang Nan looked up and saw countless huge bats swinging their claws and spreading their wings. They flew down from the moon!
The entire moon suddenly shrank. On the surface of the moon, there were countless bats formed from God Emperor's corpse energy and demonic energy!
As these moon demon bats smelled the scent of a living person, they flew down, stealing their essence energy and eating their bodies!
That supreme expert from the sacred ground led the group as they fled, only to see countless moonfiend bats raining down on the young man. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. After a while, buddha light suddenly shone in front of them. A ten thousand zhang tall buddha shone with golden light, sitting cross-legged in the underworld. Around the buddha, there were many bodhisattvas sitting in the void secret realms. Buddha chants rang out, sweeping away the devilish qi.
And below the buddha, there were many cultivators who came here to gain experience. With this buddha here, even the monsters of the The Underworld didn't dare to approach. If they did, they would be refined by the buddhist light.
The peerless expert from the Holy Land looked back and saw that countless Moonfiend Bats had already buried Jiang Nan. They had turned into a huge black ball and were rolling back and forth in the Underworld. He said sorrowfully, "That young man is probably dead …"
