Powerful Mysterious God beasts, even if they were in a deep sleep state, would still release a powerful pressure of a Mysterious God beast. However, the Tao Tie in front of him, who was only a few dozen meters away, did not make Ling Chen feel a trace of the aura that a Mysterious God beast should have.
This was definitely not because Ling Chen was already too powerful, and had completely suppressed the Tao Tie's aura. There was only one possibility in this situation.
The Tao Tie … was dead.
Ling Chen slowly walked in front of the Tao Tie. The Tao Tie was still motionless, and there was not a single trace of life in its body. Ling Chen stretched out his hand, and pressed it near the Tao Tie's big mouth, feeling a temperature that was far beyond a human's body temperature.
Taotie was indeed dead, and he was thoroughly dead. However, the temperature that Ling Chen felt told him that the Tao Tie had clearly died just now, or perhaps it had only been five minutes since it died … No, it might not even have been a minute!
This timing was incomparably coincidental, as if someone knew that he would come to find the Tao Tie, and so deliberately killed it.
Ling Chen swept his eyes over his surroundings. This space was very calm, there were no traces of a powerful force, the ground was very flat, and there were no signs of a battle. To kill a Mysterious God beast, a casual counterattack from a Mysterious God beast would be enough to destroy the entire underground space. However, this place was simply too peaceful. This could only mean that either the Tao Tie had self-destructed, or was willing to be destroyed by someone else, or it didn't even have the strength to struggle before it died … it was killed in one blow!
To kill an Ancient God beast with one blow, in the entire Mystic Moon world, apart from himself, Ling Chen could not think of a second creature that had this kind of ability.
"Little Grey, look around and see if there are any special traces left behind."
After thinking deeply, Ling Chen summoned Little Gray, and quickly searched this space. However, after Little Gray searched every corner of the entire space, he found nothing, and did not find any unusual traces.
Ling Chen stayed near the Tao Tie's corpse for a long time, before silently leaving. Combined with what Ye Wuya had said before, Qi Yue's reaction, and Taotie's words, Ling Chen could only think of one possibility in the face of Taotie's death …
Qi Yue!!
"Could it be that Qi Yue isn't Ye Wu Ya's daughter, Ye Yue?!"
If Qi Yue wasn't Ye Yue, then everything could be explained. However, Qi Yue was clearly the Lunar Scourge's item soul, and had been in it since 10,000 years ago. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so clear about what had happened 10,000 years ago. But if she was Ye Yue … then what exactly was going on? There was no way this was purely a coincidence.
Ling Chen wanted to log off immediately to interrogate Qi Yue, but after some thought, he decided against it. After all, if Qi Yue was trying to hide something, he definitely wouldn't be able to get the truth out of her. Moreover, whether or not Qi Yue was Ye Yue did not matter to him.
Thinking to there, Ling Chen took one last look at the Tao Tie's corpse and walked out of the Forgotten Cave. He returned to the Novice Village and found the Village Chief, asking him to teleport him to the Azure Dragon City. He then took out a Spatial Orb and went to the Ghastly Grounds, the entrance to the Underworld.
"Leng 'Er, let's go to the Underworld!"
After summoning Leng 'Er, under her protection, Ling Chen passed through the Underworld Gate and went to the Underworld Royal City, heading towards the Underworld King's Mansion.
"Underworld King, I need to go to the Underworld Blood Lake!"
After entering the Underworld King's Mansion and sensing the Underworld King's presence, Ling Chen roared before even seeing the Underworld King. Just as he spoke, the Underworld King's massive figure appeared in front of him with a 'whoosh', looking at him with wide eyes. "Hoh! Son-in-law! You're still alive? Tsk tsk, no wonder you're this Underworld King's son-in-law. You've been wanted by the entire Moon Deities Clan for more than a month, but you're still alive and kicking. "
After saying that, the Underworld King's gaze shifted to Leng 'Er, and his face suddenly became incomparably gentle. "Chan' Er, how have you been? Have you suffered any grievances? If someone bullies you, you must tell father … If you have nothing to do, you must come back to see me … "
No matter how gentle he was, the Underworld King's ferocious face still made Leng 'Er's body tremble slightly. She grabbed Ling Chen's clothes and hid behind him. Ling Chen grinned. "You can rest assured, the Moon Deities Clan's killing order will disappear today, and there won't be any more in the future. Even if there is, I won't take it to heart. I have something to do at the Underworld Blood Lake, and I still need to use the Underworld Blood Lake's water. However, I don't know what will happen during the process of using it, so I came to inform you. If something unexpected happens, I may need your help. "
The Underworld King waved his hand. "You're my son-in-law, so you can go wherever you want in the Netherworld … Oh, then I'll send you there now. You don't even care about the Moon Deities Clan, so there shouldn't be anything you can't solve in the entire Moon God Continent. You don't need my help. Go. "
After saying that, the Underworld King waved his hand and directly sent Ling Chen and Leng 'Er to the Underworld Blood Lake.
After Ling Chen and Leng 'Er disappeared, the Underworld King slowly put down his hand, and his expression froze as he deeply sighed. "Incredible, incredible. Just then, that was clearly the aura of a Shura, and this aura is much more powerful than the Shura from 10,000 years ago … moreover, not only did he not lose his nature, but wherever he goes, there is no tribulation lightning … such a Shura indeed doesn't care about the Moon Deities Clan.
"Being able to control the Lunar Scourge, I knew that he would be above everything in the world in the future. Even if he became a Shura, he would still be able to retain his nature. Now, it seems that what I thought back then wasn't just wishful thinking. In fact, it was even more exaggerated than I thought. These days, I've been preparing to use all of the Underworld's power to help him fight the Moon Deities Clan to the death … but it seems that this was completely unnecessary. Now that Chan 'Er has such a home, there's nothing for me to worry about, hahaha. "
The aura was incredibly dense and gloomy, and the lake water was like red blood. This was the Underworld's number one forbidden area, the Underworld Blood Lake.
Standing next to the Underworld Blood Lake, Ling Chen took out the 10 demon jade hooks and formed a circular shape according to how Little Gray had pieced them together. When the ten demon jade hooks gathered together, all of them began to shine with a faint black light. Then, they slowly rotated, and after rotating, they faintly let out ghostly howls.
As long as Ling Chen poured the Underworld Blood Lake's water onto the 10 demon jade hooks, he would be able to summon the Demon Emperor's soul. He would then use the Lunar Scourge to touch the Demon Emperor's soul, and the Demon Emperor's soul would be directly absorbed into the Lunar Scourge. This was the method that Qi Yue had told him about before.
"Leng 'Er, help me put some of the lake water on it."
The Underworld Blood Lake's water could devour all creatures, and even the 3 Moon Deities didn't dare to touch it. However, it definitely wouldn't harm creatures that had the Underworld King Blood Abyss. Leng 'Er got up and flew above the Underworld Blood Lake. She used her snow-white hands to scoop up a handful of blood-colored water and flew next to the demon jade hook. She carefully poured the water over the demon jade hook.
Immediately, the demon jade hooks spun many times faster, and large amounts of black aura madly flowed out, instantly covering the surrounding space. Ling Chen was forced back a few steps, and he looked at the black aura that was becoming denser and denser. Immediately, he saw an incomparably terrifying demon head gradually condense in the black gas. As the black gas continued to spread, the demon head became larger and larger as it twisted, becoming clearer and clearer. Then, a burst of ear-piercing laughter suddenly came from the black gas …
"Hahahaha … after 10,000 years, I, the Demon Emperor, can finally … rule the world again … hahahaha … hahahaha …"
Suddenly, the laughter stopped, and the image of the demon head changed. It seemed to have a shocked expression, "Who are you … why did you summon me … where are the Sky Demon, Earth Demon, and War Demon … why is it you …"
"Haha," Ling Chen calmly laughed as he slowly walked towards the black aura. He raised his right hand as he said unhurriedly, "You should be the soul of the Demon Emperor. The reason why I summoned you is because … your Demon Clan's World of Warcraft has all died, and I obtained the demon jade hooks that hid your soul."
"What … impossible!" The demon head's image distorted, and its voice became berserk and savage, "Impossible! My clan's 10 World of Warcraft are all at least Mysterious God rank. How could a puny human like you be their match? Even if you really did defeat them, why did I summon you? "
"Why did I summon you? Of course it's to make you disappear from this world! " Ling Chen sinisterly laughed as he walked closer and closer to the demon head. Before he became a Shura, he would have been afraid of this demon head. After all, this Demon Emperor was an existence on the same level as the 3 Moon Deities. Even if he was just a remnant soul, he would still be able to intimidate others. However, with Ling Chen's current strength, he could even look down on the Demon Emperor at his full power, so why would he be afraid of this remnant soul? If it wasn't for the fact that the Demon Emperor's soul was one of the things that he needed to awaken Shui Ruo, he wouldn't have been interested in this Demon Emperor at all.
As he spoke, Ling Chen quickly stretched out his right hand towards the black aura. The instant the Lunar Scourge touched the black aura, the 14 Lunar Scourge Orbs all flashed with a faint silver light.
"Lunar … Lunar Scourge!!!"
When the Lunar Scourge lit up, it was as if the Demon Emperor had seen a nightmarish light, and he let out an extremely terrified cry. The image that was originally very complete was completely twisted in fear, "No! This is impossible! The Lunar Scourge has clearly disappeared from this world … How is this possible! How is this possible! Ah!! "
A huge suction force was suddenly released from the Lunar Scourge. This suction force didn't affect the black aura at all, but the Demon Emperor's image was like a small boat in the ocean that had encountered a strong whirlpool, and was forcefully sucked towards the Lunar Scourge. The Demon Emperor's image frantically struggled. After being silent for 10,000 years, it had finally seen the light of day again. It was originally ecstatic, but in the blink of an eye, it was faced with even more complete despair. Even though it was the Demon Emperor, it almost had a mental breakdown. Under the irresistible suction force, it let out a hoarse roar, "No! Let me go … Let me go … I'm the Demon Emperor! I'm the Emperor of the Demon Clan … I can't be devoured … Let me go … Ah!! "
With a cry that sounded like a demon's wail, the Demon Emperor's severely deformed image was completely sucked into the Lunar Scourge. The swirling black aura also completely disappeared the moment the Demon Emperor's soul disappeared into the Lunar Scourge. On the ground, the 10 Demon Jade Hooks that were still pieced together lost their luster, turning into ordinary black stones.
