That dark whirlpool wasn't big, only the size of a fist. After Chen Zong's spiritual soul left his body, it seemed to have merged with the Heavenly Netherworld Orb, quickly entering it and disappearing.
The Tianguang Peak Lord waved his hand, and immediately set up many seals around Chen Zong's body, protecting him securely.
"Peak Lord, is it worth it?" An old voice sounded, and soon after, an old man appeared, looking at the Tianguang Peak Lord with a complicated expression.
The Heavenly Netherworld Orb was extremely valuable, as it was refined from the Underworld Race's origin of the seventh realm.
"It's worth it." The Tianguang Peak Lord's tone was very decisive, as if he was resolute and decisive. "Our Tianguang Peak has been silent for too long, and the glory of the Main Peak has passed. However, I have never forgotten that our Tianguang Peak used to be one of the Eight Main Peaks."
Among the thirty-six peaks of Taihao Mountain, the Four Main Peaks were the leaders, the Eight Main Peaks were in the middle, and the twenty-four subsidiary peaks were secondary. Among them, there were still differences between high, low, and low.
However, the Main Peak, Main Peak, and subsidiary peaks weren't static; they could be changed through challenges.
Back then, Tianguang Peak was one of the Eight Main Peaks, but it was challenged and defeated by Gulan Peak, and was replaced as one of the twenty-four subsidiary peaks.
The Four Main Peaks, the Eight Main Peaks, and the twenty-four subsidiary peaks were fixed numbers, and they couldn't be increased or decreased. They could only be replaced, but it was usually the Eight Main Peaks and the twenty-four subsidiary peaks that were replaced. As for the Four Main Peaks, they were too powerful, and their positions couldn't be shaken.
Tianguang Peak used to be one of the Eight Main Peaks, and every generation of Peak Lord wanted to return to the Eight Main Peaks. However, it wasn't an easy task, because it wasn't something that could be decided by one or two people. It was a matter between two peaks.
In terms of disciples, Tianguang Peak was still inferior to the Eight Main Peaks, and they needed stronger disciples.
Chen Zong's talent gave the Peak Lord a glimmer of hope, and as long as there was a glimmer of hope, he would seize it and try his best to expand it.
This was why he was willing to train Chen Zong.
Entering the interlayer universe was undoubtedly full of danger, but under such danger, one could also obtain greater tempering, stimulate more potential, and become stronger.
Although it was extremely dangerous, the Heaven Nether Pearl itself would provide the final protection. As long as it was detonated, the soul would be able to leave and quickly return. Normally speaking, it would not be damaged. Even if there was a special situation, it would not be destroyed. At most, it would be damaged.
Chen Zong's Divine Soul was guided by the Heavenly Nether Pearl, and it quickly went deeper. Gradually, he felt a shocking Death Qi permeating the air.
Falling!
It continued to fall!
This was a pale and desolate world. Deathly stillness pervaded the air. In the void, there was an endless gloomy aura that was like mist. It was all Death Qi.
Below, there was a dry, grayish-black soil. From time to time, pieces of gray bones could be seen.
A few beasts with ugly appearances that seemed to be formed from a mixture of bones and shattered flesh that had the appearance of dogs were lowering their heads and gnawing on something. In the sky above, Nethercrows that emitted dense aura of death flew past, and they emitted waves of extremely ear piercing strange cries that seemed to bring misfortune.
Gusts of chilly wind blew, making this place even colder. Faint ghost-like whimpers could be heard.
Very suddenly, a black light appeared and then expanded. As it spun, it turned into a fist-sized vortex. It spun continuously, and in the next breath, a grayish-white bead the size of a duck egg appeared. Then, the fist-sized vortex quickly closed and disappeared.
Falling!
The grayish-white bead fell rapidly, emitting an extremely pure fluctuation of Death Qi. In an instant, the ugly monsters in the distance and the Nethercrows flying in the sky were all attracted. Their red eyes stared at it, and they rushed over as if they had gone mad. The grayish-white bead was like a peerless delicacy.
In the next breath, a shadow seemed to appear on the grayish-white bead. Then, the bead began to spin faster and faster. A shocking suction force also erupted, and instantly sucked in the surrounding Death Qi.
One breath!
Two breaths!
Three breaths!
In just a short span of three breaths, all the Death Qi within a radius of ten thousand meters was absorbed and poured into the shadow. The shadow also quickly solidified.
The ugly monsters and Underworld Ravens that dashed over were immediately affected by the shocking suction force that was like a whale sucking in water, and were unable to escape. Even though they instinctively felt terrified and uneasy, and wanted to retreat, they were powerless to do so. They could only be continuously pulled by the suction force and swiftly approached the greyish white round pearl.
In an instant, whether it was the ugly monsters or the Nethercrows, their bodies were all sucked out of the grayish aura. It condensed into a line that quickly floated towards the bead. After the grayish aura was sucked out, whether it was the ugly monsters or the Nethercrows, their bodies all withered and then shattered.
That was their Undead Core. Without their Undead Core, they couldn't survive.
Ten thousand meters!
Twenty thousand meters!
Thirty thousand meters!
The Heavenly Nether Bead's suction force continued to expand, and the Death Qi in the air was continuously absorbed. In a short period of time, it had spread to a radius of ten thousand meters. All the Death Qi in the area was devoured, and all the Undead creatures in the area were also devoured by the Undead Core and turned into ashes.
The Heavenly Nether Bead disappeared. No, it should be said that a figure appeared where the Heavenly Nether Bead was. It was nearly two meters tall, and its skin was grayish-white. There were fine black lines radiating from its forehead to every part of its body, all the way to the ends of its fingers.
Its muscles were knotted together, as if they had been tempered thousands of times. They seemed to contain an extremely terrifying power.
Its long gray hair fell naturally, and it was suffused with a luster.
In an instant, its forehead split open, and something seemed to emerge. It was the Heavenly Nether Bead from before. Half of it was exposed, as if it was embedded in its forehead. As the grayish-white light flowed, it became the center of all the black lines on its body. It was the beginning and the end.
In the next breath, its closed eyes opened, and a gray light flashed. It was a pair of gray eyes, and there were traces of black light in the depths of its eyes. It looked abnormally deep and sharp.
"Is this the body of the Underworld Clan?" A slightly obscure voice sounded. A look of curiosity appeared on the person's face. It was Chen Zong.
The Heavenly Nether Bead was unique to the Underworld Clan among the undead creatures in the interlayer universe. It was the core of their power. The Heavenly Nether Bead of the Tianguang Peak Lord was the possession of a Seventh Realm Underworld Emperor. Moreover, all the power of that Underworld Emperor was extracted and refined into the Heavenly Nether Bead.
Now, the Heavenly Nether Bead was used on Chen Zong. It allowed Chen Zong to carry his spirit into the interlayer universe and absorb endless death energy and other things. With it as the center, he condensed a body of the Underworld Clan, temporarily becoming a member of the Underworld Clan.
From the Tianguang Peak Lord, Chen Zong already knew that the Underworld Clan was a high-level race in the interlayer universe.
The interlayer universe was inhabited by the Undead Clan, and the Undead Clan was a general term. There were many races in the interlayer universe, and there were as many as dozens of them. Among them, the Underworld Clan was one of the most powerful races.
"What a strong power." After careful observation and feeling, Chen Zong suddenly sucked in a breath of cold air. He was shocked by the power of this body.
It was a very strong power, a power that was much stronger than his own body.
As he raised his arm, the large tendons and muscles on his arm also moved continuously. It was as if they could break a mountain. The strength was extremely shocking. At the end of his slender and powerful fingers, sharp nails grew out. They could easily tear everything apart.
When he clenched his fingers, there was a faint sound of an explosion in the air, as if he had crushed the space in his palm.
Strong!
This kind of extremely strong power fascinated Chen Zong.
"This is not the power of the Fourth Realm." Chen Zong's tone was a little surprised and certain.
He was surprised by the strength of this power, but he was certain that this power was indeed not the power of the Fourth Realm. This was because the level of his own body's power had already reached the pinnacle of the Fourth Realm. Although there was still some room for improvement, it was basically almost there, unless he could cultivate the second stage of the Sword Technique of the Mythical God and Demon Sword.
Chen Zong did not know how strong the second stage of the Sword Technique of the Mythical God and Demon Sword would be because he had not really reached it yet. However, at this moment, Chen Zong could clearly feel that the strength of this body from the Netherworld Clan was at least ten times stronger than his own body.
The Netherworld Clan was born with an extremely strong body.
It seemed that most of the Undead Clan had strong bodies. Only a few Undead Clans did not, such as the Nether Clan and the Vengeful Spirits. They did not have a physical body, so they did not have extremely strong bodies.
Immediately, Chen Zong's mind moved, and from the Tianming Pearl in between his eyebrows, a strong power suddenly spread out from it. It circulated along the strong body, giving Chen Zong even more strength.
This was the power of the Dead that the Netherworld Clan possessed. It was called the Netherworld Power.
This Netherworld Power gave Chen Zong the feeling that it was also more than ten times stronger than his own Mountain-crushing Sword Energy.
This meant that the power of Qi Cultivation and Body Refining was more than ten times stronger than his own body. This completely surpassed the power of the fourth level and reached the fifth level. This made Chen Zong somewhat puzzled.
According to what the Peak Lord had said before, he was at the fourth level. Then, after using the Tianming Pearl to create the body of the Netherworld Clan, it should also be at the fourth level. Why was it at the fifth level?
Perhaps even the Peak Lord did not understand.
As he pondered, Chen Zong vaguely caught on to something. Perhaps it was because of his soul.
His soul had surpassed the fourth level and was not inferior to the fifth level at all. Then, with the Tianming Pearl as the core, the body of the Netherworld Clan that was created with his soul had reached the fifth level.
Chen Zong continued to observe and experiment. In the end, he confirmed that the cultivation level of this body of the Netherworld Clan was indeed at the fifth level. As for which level it belonged to in the fifth level, Chen Zong did not know. After all, his own body had not reached the fifth level yet.
However, being able to possess the power of the fifth level was already beyond expectations. In this netherworld, it would definitely be better than the fourth level. His ability to preserve his life would be stronger, and he might even be able to complete the Peak Leader's mission. He might even be able to find more Nine-Leaf Hell Luo Flowers and obtain even more Contribution Points.
The only thing that Chen Zong felt was that although the various Great Daos that he had comprehended and mastered were brought along with his soul, they were only at the fourth level.
