In this system, the most fatal thing was their outdated and inflexible ideas, which made them have no sense of crisis at all! Even though Daoist Cen's actions had crossed their bottom line, they didn't realize the destruction these two humans could bring because they believed that the Immortal Court would make the final decision.
In their eyes, they were just two arrogant human cultivators. Did they think they could save the world just because they learned some skills?
Childish!
This gave Lou Xiaoyi an opportunity to plan his tactics.
A month later, the two met sneakily.
Daoist Cen was a bit tired. He felt that this was even more tiring than studying the Great Dao. With this kind of body and this kind of strength, his lips were about to blister. Most importantly, the people he was persuading weren't normal.
"I can gather about ten thousand souls now! The more time passes, the more souls I'll gather. But I can't guarantee that they won't spill the beans. There are traitors everywhere in this damned place. I feel like I won't be able to wrap up the fire if I drag this out. "
Lou Xiaoyi laughed. "That's normal. Snitching is also a way to change the state of life. It's simple, easy, and doesn't take any risks! If I were a soul, I would've already sued you for inciting rebellion and conspiring against the law! "
Daoist Cen shouted, "Stop making sarcastic remarks here! Do you have any confidence if we act now? "
Lou Xiaoyi said indifferently, "I don't have confidence! But that's not a reason to not act! Ten thousand souls isn't a small number. The key is to form a momentum. Once the momentum is formed, the snowball will roll bigger and bigger, and gathering souls will be easy. "
Daoist Cen nodded. This guy didn't pull his crotch. "I think so too! Words alone are useless. It's better to act. We'll set up a banner and build momentum. That's what we do!
Have you decided where to start? "
Lou Xiaoyi pointed into the distance. "The Reincarnation Hall! It's the closest to the world of the living and the furthest from the other halls. "
Daoist Cen glared. "Don't tell me we're just going to push from one hall to the next? If it's that simple, can't we have an ingenious tactical arrangement? "
Lou Xiaoyi sneered. "Old Cen, you've read too many books! The simplest method was also the most effective. Moreover, do you think that to these living souls, the so-called battle tactics have any meaning?
My method may seem clumsy, but there's nothing wrong with the core idea. Ants can kill an elephant if there are enough of them. That's the human wave tactic. It's a swarm of bees … "
The battle would begin with a few of the lowest ranked Emissaries of Hell!
They didn't have the ten thousand souls that Daoist Cen had bragged about. There were only one or two thousand of them. Daoist Cen didn't blush in the slightest because of his bragging. In war, wasn't it normal for a thousand people to be called an army of ten thousand? It was already very kind of him not to mention the 100,000 troops.
"If it were two hundred years ago, this place would be filled with the top evildoers and good people. It would be easy to instigate them. But it's different now. Those unruly evildoers and good people have all reincarnated. Now, everyone here is basically an ordinary person. So …"
After the collapse of the Five Fates and Five Virtues, the Great Dao of Reincarnation no longer had a basis to rely on. Unable to see the light of virtue above the living souls' heads, the Great Dao of Reincarnation became blind. So now, for the past two hundred years, ordinary people were used to make up the numbers. The Immortal Court also let this go. They couldn't even take care of themselves, so who would worry about these departed souls?
Lou Xiaoyi's view was the exact opposite of his. "I think this is the best! What you care about is how to fight, but what I care about is how to build the Underworld in the future! Ordinary people are good. They're much easier to manage than those so-called good and evil people!
Moreover, don't worry. When it comes to a real battle, ordinary people with simple minds are much stronger than those scheming evildoers, evildoers, and good people! "
Surrounded by so many living souls, the Emissaries of Hell weren't worried at all. With their own strength, these weak souls couldn't do anything to them at all!
But they didn't know that there were two evil wolves hiding among these flocks of sheep!
The living souls dilly-dallied there, overcautious and overcautious. They were very clear about the outcome if they failed. They would be thrown into the eighteen levels of hell for the next hundred years and experience those inhuman torments. Although they wouldn't die, the pain wouldn't be any less! It was an enormous torment to the mind!
The ones who started the fight could only be the two instigators!
Lou Xiaoyi pulled out his long sword, while Daoist Cen used a magic sword. The two of them chopped up the Emissaries of Hell like they were chopping vegetables!
They were really hovering between life and death, because souls like them simply couldn't die in an environment like the Underworld! This was the rule set by the Golden Immortal when he established this place. It was the rule of the Underworld! You could torture them, but you couldn't kill them!
Dying was easy, but to live, there was a process. This slow recovery process was the opportunity for the living souls to take a bite!
In the beginning, no one dared to approach, but then a few daring souls surrounded and bit them. What they bit off was the Yin Qi that these Emissaries of Hell had accumulated over tens of thousands of years!
With the beginning, what followed was very simple. When one or two thousand living souls started to bite, the Emissaries of Hell hadn't been able to hover between life and death a few times before they were bitten until the Yin Qi they had accumulated over tens of thousands of years was completely gone. They truly returned to the state of primitive living souls when they first entered this place. At this time, the other living souls could no longer bite off anything from their bodies.
The Emissaries of Hell didn't die, because this was the rule! But they also lost the capital to do evil, because the ability that they had painstakingly accumulated over tens of thousands of years was no longer there.
The living souls who had tasted the sweetness were somewhat excited, because they felt that their own strength had increased. In this place, increasing one's strength meant that one wouldn't be bullied, or even bullied others.
The team had increased by another thousand. It was a bit of a scale.
Daoist Cen was very satisfied. This was a pretty good start. "Find a few more Emissaries of Hell, ten or so will do! After a few more times, the team will expand like a snowball … "
Lou Xiaoyi spread out his hands. "You wish! How can there be so many lone Emissaries for you to slowly grow stronger? They are Emissaries of Hell, not idiots!
Let's directly go to the Reincarnation Hall! We'll work a little harder. A hall with a hundred or so Emissaries of Hell, we should be able to take them down, right? "
The team was majestic, but the living souls' morale wasn't high. After all, ever since they had been pulled into the Netherworld, they had viewed this kind of King of Hell's Palace as a taboo. The huge psychological shadow wasn't so easy to erase!
Daoist Cen complained, "Many will die. Although they won't die in the end, but this morale …"
Lou Xiaoyi didn't hesitate at all. "War is to get rid of the weeds and preserve the pure! Only in this kind of life and death situation can you pick out the seeds to manage the Netherworld in the future!
And we have to be fast! We can't stop, we can't wait for the other King of Hell's Palaces to react and gather all the Emissaries of Hell's Palace. The two of us won't be able to hold them off!
So, once the battle starts, unless the victor is decided, we can't stop! "
