Nightfall.
The originally dark sky became even darker. Even the moonlight seemed to be hidden in the sky.
Qingyu City.
Dark clouds covered the city.
Two figures, one black and one white, slowly appeared in the void. They wore tall hats and held a black and a white mourning stick in their hands. Their faces were cold and their eyes were filled with seriousness. Behind them, there were many reapers.
Against them were the countless ghosts and monsters of Green Jade City.
These ghosts were completely different from the ones Li Nianfan had encountered along the way. Most of them had lost their human form and looked extremely ugly. They were surrounded by a dense Ghostly Qi, which made people fearful. This was because they did not have any cultivation techniques. They simply devoured souls to become stronger.
Above the heads of the ghosts, three figures sat on the tall city gate of Qingyu City. They were surrounded by a deathly Qi. Their aura was vast and boundless. Even in the face of so many reapers, they did not panic at all.
It was because of these three Ghost Kings that Qingyu City could be turned into a land of death. Even thousands of miles around it became a paradise for ghosts. Even the cultivation sects in the human world were destroyed.
One of them had a green face and fangs. His eyes were bulging and his mouth was like a crocodile. His sharp teeth were exposed along his mouth. He was the self-proclaimed strongest Fanged Ghost King.
There were three heads hanging from one shoulder, each head like a meatball. Their eyes were crooked, and their mouths were like frogs. Their mouths were wide open, as if they couldn't close them. Giggling could be heard, causing one's hair to stand on end. This was the self-proclaimed invincible Three-Headed Ghost King.
The other one was a lady in a red dress. Not only did she have a human form, but she was also extremely beautiful. She seemed to be the leader.
If Li Nianfan was here, he would definitely be surprised. This lady in red dress was almost the same as the lady he met last time. Just the aura alone was the same.
The Three-Headed Ghost King let out a weird laugh. Three different voices echoed, "Hei Bai Wuchang, why are there only two of you here? Where's the Blood Sea General?"
Hei Wuchang said coldly, "Hmph, we don't need to bother the Blood Sea General to deal with you little ghosts!"
"Kekeke, he doesn't have time to come. With the current manpower of the Underworld, do you think we don't know?" The Fangs Ghost King laughed wildly as if he had seen through everything. "The Book of Life and Death has appeared. How could he not go? However, it would all be for naught in the end! All of you will die here too! "
Bai Wuchang's face was gloomy to the extreme, as if he would attack at any time. "You dare to covet the Book of Life and Death?"
"Naturally, only those who are capable can possess such a treasure."
The woman in the red dress giggled and licked her lips with her scarlet tongue. She looked at Hei Bai Wuchang and said, "You and I both know that the Underworld no longer exists. What are you still guarding? This is the time for us to fight for our own opportunities. Once we seize them, we can become the new rulers. You should learn from the Asura Ghost General. If we join forces, the entire world will be ours! "
"The Asura Ghost General's name has been removed from the Underworld! Once I'm done with you, he'll be next! "
Black Bai Wuchang's aura suddenly soared, as if he was extremely angry. He shouted sternly, "How can a bunch of wandering ghosts like you compare to the Emissaries of the Underworld?!"
"Die!"
Black Bai Wuchang attacked at the same time. He raised both of his hands and a black chain shot out like a python. It shook violently in the air, and in the blink of an eye, it had already wrapped around the three Ghost Kings.
"Little ones, once we kill these Emissaries, the Underworld will be ours! Kill! "
The Fanged Ghost King roared and rushed out first. He opened his huge mouth and bit on the chain. With a "Kacheng" sound, the chain was directly bitten into pieces.
His eyes narrowed like a poisonous snake, flashing with violence and madness. He opened his mouth again and spat out a black fog, enveloping Black Bai Wuchang!
"The body of the Ghost God is invulnerable to all evil!"
Black Bai Wuchang snorted coldly. His body flashed with a faint light, like a barrier. He didn't need to do anything, and the black fog couldn't get close to him.
Emissaries naturally had their own unique techniques to subdue ghosts.
In the next moment, Black Bai Wuchang raised the Mourning Staff in his hand and smashed it at the Fanged Ghost King!
The Mourning Staff, specialized in subduing ghosts and gods. One hit from the Mourning Staff could destroy ghosts and spirits. Even if it was a Ghost King, one hit from the Mourning Staff was enough to make him lose his ability to fight!
"Hehe, did you really think we weren't prepared?" The Fanged Ghost King let out a soft laugh. He flipped his wrist, and a huge sword appeared in his hand. He went up to meet the attack.
"Clang!" It collided with the Mourning Staff.
The huge sword was surrounded by a deathly aura, and there was a scarlet murderous aura floating around. Inside the sword, there were many wronged souls gathered, and they let out mournful cries.
"How dare you!" Black Impermanence's face was as black as ink, and his voice was as loud as thunder, "You slaughtered the people here, and even refined them into ghost weapons. Such evil deeds should be banished to the eighteenth level of hell, never to be reincarnated!"
The Three-Headed Ghost King held a huge iron hammer in his hand, and also attacked. He said proudly, "We refined the weapons of the cultivators in the mortal world. What can the Underworld do to us?"
At the same time, even the other ghosts in Green Jade City, most of them had ghost weapons in their hands, and began to fight with the Reapers.
The Reapers' weapons that were originally effective against ghosts and gods were naturally less effective. For a moment, the cold wind whistled, and black gas covered the sky. The strange ghost cries made one's scalp tingle.
The terrifying aura was like a landslide and a tsunami, and it reverberated between heaven and earth.
The fight between ghosts was not as dazzling as that between cultivators, but it was more cruel and bloody. The scene of souls tearing and devouring each other could be seen everywhere, and it was extremely eerie.
At the same time.
Five miles away from Green Jade City.
Suddenly, there was a wave of movement in the darkness, and a light blue halo lit up.
This light blue halo formed a water shield, like a small Mongolian yurt, and it appeared on the ground.
And within the ripples, a very fashionable tent was erected.
Li Nianfan sat outside the tent and said, "Tonight, we'll have to sleep on the streets again."
He looked at the layer of water in front of him. He had to admit that it was very convenient to have Long'Er by his side. She brought out the convenience of being an Immortal. She could casually set up a water barrier, and it was beautiful, defensible, and could even block out sound. It was simply a must-have for traveling.
Long'Er asked curiously, "Big Brother, aren't we going to continue walking? It seems like we're almost there. "
"We definitely can't go!" Li Nianfan shook his head without hesitation, and patted Long'Er's little head. "The situation there is unclear, and it's extremely dangerous. You have to remember, you have to avoid things that could easily endanger your safety. You have to be as careful as possible."
"Oh." Long'Er nodded. "Then, are we just going to wait here?"
"We have to at least wait until tomorrow. Let's just get closer bit by bit."
Li Nianfan sighed softly. "The best case scenario is that when we arrive, the Reapers will have already taken down Qingyu City. Everything will be safe then. The worst case scenario is that we have to run away."
Speaking of running away, Li Nianfan could not help but look at Blackie.
Blackie's dog face looked like it understood, and it barked softly.
Nanna said, "Big Brother Nianfan, tomorrow morning, I can go and check out the situation for you first."
Li Nianfan pondered for a moment.
"Let Long'Er go. Long'Er is much more stable than you." Li Nianfan looked at Long'Er. "Remember, be discreet. Just take a look from afar. Don't force yourself."
Long'Er nodded. "Big Brother, I understand."
"Alright, it's time for me to sleep. Let's hope everything goes well tomorrow." Li Nianfan looked at the starless sky, pulled open the tent, and walked in.
Time ticked by, and the night grew darker. It was like a pitch-black beast that wanted to devour everything in the world.
Long'Er and Nanna tilted their heads and whispered to each other. They were curious and guessing.
Long'Er said, "Nanna, what do you think Big Brother wants to cultivate? He's already so powerful. What else can he cultivate in this world?"
Nanna shook her head, sniffled, and said, "I don't know either. I feel like Big Brother Nianfan is just looking for an excuse to bring us out to play."
"What you said seems to make sense."
Long'Er suddenly understood. Then, he looked at Blackie and asked curiously, "Blackie, what do you think Big Brother wants to do?"
"I don't think we need to guess. Just follow Master." Blackie rolled his eyes. Then, he said, "Master is just playing in the world. He's doing whatever he wants. What's his purpose?"
Long'Er suddenly felt a sense of sympathy. She sighed. "That's true. There's always a trade-off. Big Brother is too powerful. He must have lost a lot of fun."
"When Master is happy, he'll sprinkle water everywhere so that everyone can have fun together. Life is endless. When he's unhappy, he can destroy this world. It's all up to him."
Blackie's ears suddenly twitched. He seemed to be listening.
Then, he slowly stood up. "Anyway, we just need to follow Master's hints. Let Master be in a good mood. For example, right now, I'm going to help Master."
"I agree. The ultimate goal of living is to be relaxed and happy. If Big Brother Nianfan is playing a game, then we have to accompany him."
Nanna nodded vigorously. Then, she looked at Blackie. "How are you going to help Big Brother Nianfan?"
"Just now, when Master was talking about the 'best case scenario', he looked at me. That's a hint. I have to help Master open a path."
Blackie walked out of the ripples and slowly walked into the darkness. His figure gradually disappeared. "I'll be back soon."
…
The massacre in Green Jade City was still ongoing.
There were far more ghosts than Reapers. Although many of them were not strong, the Ghost Sea Tactic still made the Reapers feel extremely exhausted. Many Reapers were torn apart and devoured.
Blackie saw this and was anxious. Bai Wuchang was anxious.
The Underworld was already in dire need of manpower. If one person died, there would be one less person. How would the Underworld operate in the future?
They looked at each other. Then, they raised their hands at the same time. "Spirit Reaper Chains!"
Swoosh!
Countless black chains shot out from their bodies.
Like a spider web, they covered the sky. Instantly, they locked the three Spirit Kings who were fighting with them.
The chains quickly shrunk and interfered with the other two. However, the main target was the Three-Headed Spirit King!
They were going to use all their strength to kill one first!
Two mourning sticks were raised and aimed at the Three-Headed Spirit King's two heads.
Just as they were about to succeed, the Three-Headed Spirit King suddenly opened its mouth and stuck out a long tongue. It was a terrifying blood-red snake. It opened its mouth wide and bit at Blackie Bai Wuchang!
This was a suicidal attack. Blackie Bai Wuchang could not afford to take it. He could only give up helplessly.
The Three-Headed Spirit King laughed strangely and said smugly, "Hehe, Blackie Bai Wuchang is only so-so. Show me what else you have."
Blackie Bai Wuchang did not say anything. He suddenly took out a black jade bottle. Instantly, drops of rain dripped out of the bottle!
It seemed like a hazy drizzle was falling from the sky. It easily penetrated the Ghost Qi and dripped onto the ghosts. At first, they did not care. But soon, their faces were filled with fear.
The Fanged Spirit King quickly retreated and screamed, "Grandma Meng's Soup. This is Grandma Meng's Soup!"
Some of the ghosts' eyes started to lose focus. They lost their direction in life and started to float around in a daze.
Blackie Bai Wuchang sighed and said with pity, "Grandma Meng's Soup. Every time you use it, you can't use it anymore."
"As expected of the Underworld. Even though it has fallen to this point, it still has a lot of resources."
Blood appeared around the woman in the red dress and blocked the Grandma Meng's Soup. She said slowly, "However, you might have forgotten that I am not a ghost. I was born in the River Styx."
The blood around her suddenly became thicker and thicker. It covered the Fanged Spirit King and the Three-Headed Spirit King who were slowly losing their minds. The blood became thicker and thicker. The Styx's shadow appeared and roared like a dragon. It seemed to be chewing on the two Spirit Kings.
The woman in the red dress also merged into the blood. The three of them combined into one and gave birth to a monstrous force that dyed the sky red!
Gradually, a woman's ghost face formed by blood appeared. The blood flowed and made the ghost face look like it was floating up and down. A woman's shrill laughter was heard. It was extremely terrifying.
"Hehehe, a heaven-sent opportunity, a heaven-sent opportunity! As the saying goes, when the sandpiper and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits. I will eat both of you! I can use this chance to cultivate my Asura Dao Body. "
The ghost face in the blood spoke slowly. It suddenly opened its mouth and sucked. Suddenly, countless ghosts around rushed towards its mouth like rivers flowing into the sea.
These ghosts had become idiots. They didn't know how to resist and were easily swallowed. The ghost face grew bigger and bigger. The suction force became stronger and stronger. Even the Envoys couldn't resist it. They flew into the air and flew towards the mouth.
"Huala!"
Iron chains flew out and wrapped around those Envoys.
"Everyone, stay calm. Let's work together and resist it!" Black Impermanence circulated the ghostly aura around him to the maximum. He tied the iron chains around each Envoys and connected them together. They resisted with all their might.
Bai Wuchang also shouted, "Quick, throw out your ghostly chains and pull those ghosts back. Pull as many as you can!"
"Huala, huala!"
The sound of chains continued. More and more ghosts and Envoys joined together to resist.
"Hehehe, it's even better if you're all strung together. Let me eat you all in one go. This way of eating must be very satisfying!"
The ghost face in the blood laughed. Victory was in his grasp. It was only a matter of time before he ate everyone.
He was too strong.
The Envoys' bodies slowly leaned towards the ghost face. Black Bai Wuchang's expression was extremely ugly. His eyes were filled with despair and unwillingness.
If even he and the others died, then the Underworld would really be finished!
There were so many twists and turns. Even Styx had his own plans.
Was the Underworld really going to be destroyed?
Their hearts beat violently. They didn't want to die. They couldn't die!
"Rustle, rustle, rustle."
At this moment, there seemed to be footsteps in the distance.
Then, a black dog slowly appeared in front of everyone's eyes. Its black dog fur fluttered in the wind. It stood there quietly, looking at them with calm eyes.
This … is a black mutt?
Everyone was stunned. They couldn't believe their eyes.
How could such a hallucination appear before their deaths?
The ghost face was also stunned. However, it didn't think too much about it. Its mouth twitched and the suction force became stronger, enveloping Blackie.
"I didn't expect a dog to appear at the last moment. Not bad."
However, it soon discovered a problem. The dog was still standing there quietly. Not to mention moving, even its fur didn't seem to be affected. The dog's eyes were still calm.
Hmm?
This dog … seems to be a little extraordinary.
Then, the dog spoke, "Looks like your suction force isn't enough. Why don't you take a look at mine?"
Then, the dog opened its mouth slightly. Like a straw, it twitched slightly. The ghost face couldn't resist at all. It didn't even have time to think before it turned into a pool of blood and entered Blackie's mouth like fruit juice.
The dog chewed slightly, followed by the sound of swallowing.
"Hmm, it tastes terrible. I think I ate shit."
