On the north side of the Void Ocean.
A black wheel of light sped over from afar. Then, it suddenly shot into the water and dove downwards.
The Sea King had lost everything during the invasion of Beiqi. He knew that he could no longer turn the situation around with his own strength.
Such a deep hatred had driven the Sea King mad. Hence, he had a crazy idea. It was the only way for him to rise again.
The Death's Light Wheel shuttled under the water. 5000 meters … 10000 meters … 20000 meters …
Soon, a huge statue appeared in his line of sight.
Seeing the Death's Light Wheel approaching, the huge statue turned around slowly and looked at the Sea King.
"Roar …" The undercurrent was surging. The huge arm suddenly grabbed the Sea King.
"Guardian, I am Mu Hai from the Mu Te Clan!" the Sea King immediately condensed his thoughts into a telepathic thought and transmitted it into the body of the Spirit of Mu Te.
This time, the huge statue did not attack. It lowered its arm slowly and allowed the Sea King to approach.
After getting close to the Spirit of Mu Te, the Sea King left the light wheel. He drew a line on his arm and a few drops of blue blood fell on the surface of the Spirit of Mu Te's body and quickly seeped into it.
After a while, the voice of the Spirit of Mu Te appeared in the Sea King's mind.
"Member of the Mu Te Royal Family, what brings you here?"
"I want to release the Death Clan. I want them to ravage the Void Ocean!"
"No, sealing this place is the order of our king, Mu Zhiguang. I reject your request!" the voice of the Spirit of Mu Te reverberated in the Sea King's mind.
"Mu Zhiguang is dead. The only way for me to take revenge is to release the Death Clan. Now, I am the only one left in the Mu Te Clan. I am your king now!" the Sea King roared hysterically.
"I don't believe it!" the Spirit of Mu Te seemed to be shocked and his body trembled.
The Sea King's face darkened. He immediately transmitted the last words that Mu Zhiguang left for him to the Spirit of Mu Te.
After a moment of silence, the Spirit of Mu Te spoke again, "He hopes that you will not take revenge and preserve the last bloodline of the Mu Te Clan."
"I'd rather die than live alone. I've made up my mind!" the Sea King said with determination.
"The last King of Mu Te, I will obey your orders!"
This time, the Spirit of the Mu Te Sea didn't say anything else. It was created by the Mu Te Tribe, so it had to follow the orders of the King of the Mu Te Tribe. Now that the Sea King was the only one left of the Mu Te Tribe, it believed that the Sea King was the last King of the Mu Te Tribe.
The giant statue's right foot slowly lifted up, revealing a six-pointed star array beneath it. Countless ghostly wails could be heard coming from within.
The tentacles seeped into the seal and began to twist and grow.
"Do you need me to break the seal? King Mu Te! "
"Wait!" the Sea King said as he dashed toward the seal.
Suddenly, numerous black tentacles entangled the Sea King in a frenzy.
Boom! The Mu Te Guardian Spirit's feet shook, and all the illusory tentacles were torn apart by an invisible force.
When the Sea King's feet came into contact with the seal, countless voices rang in his mind.
Strange laughter, hoarse roars, and sorrowful cries …
"Mu Zhiguang … dead … dead … Mu Zhiguang is dead …"
"Hmph!" The Sea King snorted coldly and drove all the voices out of his mind. He then lowered his body and looked at the hexagram seal.
"Do you want to come out? Master of Death! "
As soon as the Sea King's voice fell, the tentacles that were still spreading out disappeared. A skeleton face slowly formed at the seal.
"Mu Zhiguang … Die!"
"I'm not Mu Zhiguang. I'm just asking if you want to come out. If you don't want to come out, I think Mu Zhiguang will keep you here forever!"
Of course, the Sea King would not tell the Sea King that Mu Zhiguang was already dead. Otherwise, he was afraid that the Death Clan in the Abyss of Death would go on a rampage and attack the seal.
Without Mu Zhiguang, the Spirit of Mu Te alone could not stop the Death Clan from breaking the seal. The Sea King knew this very well.
"Who are you … Can you let us … out?" The voice under the seal kept changing from crying, to angry, to wailing.
"I can let you out, but what can you give me in return?"
"I can give you death … I can grant you death … I can let you embrace the darkness …" a sharp laughter came from below, causing the Sea King to turn pale.
"Looks like you never want to come out!" the Sea King snorted.
"What do you want … You seem to desire the power of death … I can feel it!"
"That's right, give me the power of death and let me lead your Army of Death. I will lead them to slaughter and devour all life!"
"That's a good offer … I like it … But do you really dare?"
As soon as the Master of Death finished speaking, an elixir surrounded by the aura of death slowly emerged from the seal.
"Do you dare … Hehehe … You might really die after eating it!"
The Sea King looked at the elixir and reached out to take it.
Suddenly, the aura of death began to surround his hand and his arm instantly turned black. The power of death continuously seeped into his body, destroying his bodily functions.
"If you can give me the power I want, I will let you out!" the Sea King swallowed the elixir resolutely as he spoke.
"Ah!"
The aura of death instantly spread all over the Sea King's body. His eyes gradually turned as black as Mu Zhiguang's. Waves of black air flowed in and out of his body and the Sea King began to scream in pain.
"Hahaha … Embrace death … Enjoy the last moment of your life …" looking at the Sea King who was howling in pain, the voice below laughed hysterically.
…
After this battle, the players once again felt the insignificance of their own forces.
In the face of such destructive power, no matter how many of them they had and how they could resurrect, they were still no match for it.
However, this battle also brought great rewards to the players.
The large number of dead soldiers of the Sea King Navy brought them innumerable experience points and soul coins.
After the battle, the players even spent a large number of soul coins to improve their strength, change their equipment, and repair their warships. The overall strength of the players in the original server had once again increased by a large margin.
Among them, the one who benefited the most was Lu Wu. The number of soul coins he had directly exceeded 50 million, which made him grin from ear to ear.
Even the sense of crisis from the hidden forces of Beiqi that had been weighing on his heart had faded away.
After knowing that the white-haired old man used to be his subordinate, he had no more worries. Now, the only thing that made him feel very uncomfortable, to the point that he would slap the floor whenever he thought about it, was the melodramatic fact that he used to be a girl.
After this battle, Lu Wu also spent some soul coins to use the Yin energy to repair the border area of the Mansion of the Dead.
After all, this was the only way for the players to reach the Liuli Coast. Now that it was destroyed by the battle between Lie Shan and Mu Zhiguang, it was possible that the players would fall into a bottomless pit while walking.
Lu Wu did not feel bad about this sum of money. He decisively waved his hand and spent it!
At the same time, there was one more important thing for Lu Wu to do.
When he was almost done with the trivial matters, he condensed his incarnation in the Mansion of the Dead and walked toward Tong Gua's forging room.
At this moment, in Tong Gua's forging room.
Tong Gua, Xiao Tian, the sapling version of the Rock Ghost King, and the little snake version of the Hydra King stared at each other without saying a word.
"Tong Gua, I didn't expect you to become so weak!" the Rock Ghost King said as the atmosphere became a little awkward.
"No wonder your form looks so familiar!" Tong Gua did not answer directly. Instead, he looked at the Rock Ghost King and fell into deep thought.
"Ahem …" the Rock Ghost King could not help but cough awkwardly.
After all, when he first snuck into the Mansion of the Dead, he thought that Tong Gua was still the terrifying Ghost King Peak Powerhouse, which was why such an embarrassing thing happened.
"By the way, Tong Gua, since we already have the idea of surrendering to him, why doesn't he come out to meet us?" the Hydra King asked curiously.
"Don't worry, he's always like this. Who knows, he might come out at any time. Anyway, just wait, but you must be mentally prepared. Surrendering to him is not as simple as it sounds," Tong Gua could not help but remind them.
"Do we have to swear allegiance to him with our souls? We did it when our king was still around. Since it's an allegiance, it's normal to do it to prevent betrayal, "the Rock Ghost King frowned.
"Then you're too naive. Once you board this pirate ship made of vibranium, the door will be welded shut. You won't be able to leave even if you die," Xiao Tian said faintly.
Although Xiao Tian did not know what vibranium was when he said this, he knew that it was very powerful according to the players.
The Rock Ghost King and the Hydra King were dumbfounded when they heard this.
At this moment, a figure appeared in the house. The pitch-black figure was covered by a dense fog, making it impossible to see the person's face clearly.
"Rock Ghost King, Hydra King, I'm here!"
Seeing the person, the Rock Ghost King and the Hydra King were shocked. After thinking for a while, they faced Lu Wu and bowed.
"Greetings, King of Beiqi!"
"To be honest, your allegiance to me has caused me to lose a lot of resources. But this is good, I can use this opportunity to expand my territory!" As he spoke, Lu Wu moved his mind and a paragraph of words of allegiance to the artifact entered the minds of the Rock Ghost King and the Hydra King.
"Read it, we'll be a family after that!" Lu Wu said with a smile.
"My king, why does this Soul Allegiance Oath feel different from the original version?" the Rock Ghost King and the Hydra King raised their heads in confusion.
"Don't ask so much, just read it. What are you afraid of? Can't you see that I've already read it?" Tong Gua instigated them from the side, but he was secretly happy.
After all, it was great to have two more people suffer with him.
After looking at each other, the two of them finally began to read the words in their minds.
At this moment, the artifact also sensed their souls. After they finished reading the Soul Allegiance Oath, it sucked them into the space.
Bei Li, who had been waiting in the artifact for a long time, wore a mask and a white coat, and began a new round of brainwashing.
After about an hour, the Rock Ghost King and the Hydra King were sent out of the space with dull faces.
"What is this? Could this be the secret weapon that Lu Yan made back then? "the Rock Ghost King and the Hydra King were horrified after they recovered from the shock.
Especially when they saw the mysterious Bei Li who had been following the former King of Beiqi closely in the artifact space, it was even more unbelievable.
"The information is already in your minds," Lu Wu spoke again.
Upon hearing this, the Rock Ghost King and the Hydra King immediately sank their telepathy into their minds.
Information about the Divine Artifact and the players popped up one after another, shocking the experienced and knowledgeable players.
"What do you think? Didn't I tell you? You can't get off the pirate ship made of vibranium. Now, you can't even die even if you want to!" Xiao Tian chuckled.
"My king, I want to know what you're planning!" the Rock Ghost King asked with a serious expression.
"To forge an army that can fight against any force … including the World of Immortals!"
Lu Wu's calm words frightened the Rock Ghost King and the Hydra King. After all, he knew how terrifying the strength of the World of Immortals was.
"Don't be afraid. With the artifact, I have the ability!"
After the two understood some of the functions of the artifact, they began to recognize the absurdity in their hearts.
"Now I finally understand why these secret weapons … no, players keep harassing my North Rocks. This is how they develop and become stronger!"
The Hydra King also nodded his head.
"Plundering and becoming stronger? After the artifact digitized, their potential is limitless. This is indeed the best way to develop!"
"My king, I know how to make medicine. Do I need to provide it to the players and develop it into their Life Profession?"
Just as Xiao Tian said, since they had already boarded the ship, the Rock Ghost King was ready to follow. Hence, he took the initiative to propose the idea of helping the players develop.
"Rock Ghost King, you and the Hydra King go back first and continue to be your Ghost Kings. At this stage, the strength of the players still needs to be developed. I'm preparing a new chapter of advancement, so you can continue to be your Ghost Kings. As for the harassment of the players, you can turn a blind eye to it. When the time is right, I'll tell the players about your participation!"
Upon hearing this, the Rock Ghost King and the Hydra King looked bitter.
They thought that they could finally relax after boarding the ship, but they didn't expect to have to help the players become stronger.
"Yes!"
In the end, the two bowed and agreed.
Seeing that the two had agreed, Lu Wu nodded his head in satisfaction.
"When the time is right, bring your trusted subordinates here. I'll digitize them. As for the unimportant subordinates, they can continue to be the players' growth resources."
Upon hearing this, the Rock Ghost King and the Hydra King were pleasantly surprised. They were worried about this just now. After all, those trusted subordinates had followed them for so many years. They couldn't bear to let them become the players' growth resources. However, they didn't expect Lu Wu to take the initiative to say it before they even mentioned it.
"Yes!" The Rock Ghost King and the Hydra King bowed again.
"Very well!" After saying that, Lu Wu's figure disappeared on the spot.
After Lu Wu left, the four of them fell into silence again.
"Don't complain. If the players become stronger, you will benefit too. After all, we are now one force. As for those unimportant subordinates, you don't have any feelings for them. Don't be too conflicted!" Tong Gua said as he saw Lu Wu leave.
"By the way, the artifact has the function to extract soul power and convert it into soul coins. I think you guys know about this. This is also the only currency that we use with other NPCs and players. At the same time, the game store is also open to us. There are many benefits." As he spoke, Tong Gua's gaze became a little malicious. He then walked to the Rock Ghost King's side and hooked his arm around his neck.
"Brother, we are all one family now. This … I'm a little short on money recently. If we want to compare assets, there are spiritual materials everywhere in your North Rocks. Why don't you cut down a few trees yourself and sell them in the store? Then, I can borrow some money to spend."
Upon hearing this, the Rock Ghost King's expression changed.
"I don't even have soul coins. Why would I lend it to you? Never!"
"Hey, hey, you are too heartless. Now that we have the soul coin function, you will definitely cut down the trees secretly. Don't think that I don't know. What's wrong with lending me some money? I work so hard every day and only earn a few hundred soul coins. Don't you know how to sympathize with me?" Tong Gua said angrily.
Looking at the scattered wine bottles on the ground, the Rock Ghost King and the Hydra King looked at each other and quickly left.
At this moment, the Rock Ghost King had the intention to cut down the trees and sell them himself. After all, in his opinion, the soul coins were a divine item that could help him break through to the Middle-stage of the Ghost King Realm.
He suddenly felt that this pirate ship made of vibranium was actually quite good.
