Like a hot knife through butter, this was how they felt during their rebellion!
The number of living souls had also increased from one to two thousand to over a million now!
Of course, it couldn't be compared to the hundreds of millions of living souls in the underworld. But if you exclude those imprisoned in the eighteen levels of hell, women, the elderly, children, and those who were timid, this number was normal.
In such a short period of time, this was already a remarkable achievement. More importantly, it was enough to deal with the Yama Palace!
Soon, they arrived at the last hall, Qin Guang Palace. Daoist Cen's brows furrowed tighter and tighter.
"There's something fishy about this! None of the ten Yama Kings are missing, but the other ghost envoys in the palace are all present. They're completely unprepared, just like … "
Lou Xiaoyi continued, "Just like cannon fodder? I feel the same way! But I'm really not familiar with the underworld! I still don't understand what this means?
Old Cen, do the ten Yama Kings have seals or something like that? For example, some special method to control the underworld? "
Daoist Cen was also very confused. "There should be, right? However, this place was a place where a special power was sealed by a Gold Immortal. So, what kind of tricks could he play? I haven't done anything specific. To be honest, I'm not too sure … "
Lou Xiaoyi was speechless. "Not sure? You dare to drag me here if you're not sure? At the very least, we have to snatch some special items to control the underworld, right? Now, we've occupied the ten Yama Palaces, but it's the same as not occupying them at all! "
The two of them were actually the same. The entire operation seemed to be too relaxed, because in their eyes, the souls of these mortals were not a threat at all. With the experience of a Half Immortal, what kind of tricks could they play?
This shouldn't be the character of cultivators. But no matter how cautious they were, they couldn't ask them to be careful with mortals! This was something rooted in the depths of every cultivator's consciousness. There was no way to stop it.
A relaxing trip was what both of them were thinking about!
Overthrowing the underworld and establishing a new order didn't seem too difficult when the Immortal Court had basically given up on this place?
Their considerations weren't wrong. The Immortal Court had indeed given up on this place, but they didn't consider the fact that the natives here, even if they were the souls of mortals after death, still possessed the same intelligence. They knew about risks, schemes, and tricks!
Daoist Cen comforted him. "It's nothing! The Immortal Court had indeed given up on this place! This was confirmed by my contacts with the higher-ups over the years! The Five Fates and Five Virtues had been lost, and there was no foundation to reconstruct the complete cycle of reincarnation. Rather than spending a lot of effort here, it was better to wait until the new era came.
What other risks were there? The souls themselves? Or was it some other foreign cultivator? If it's these two things, I believe it won't be difficult for us to deal with them with our abilities! "
Lou Xiaoyi sighed. "I hope so!"
This Daoist Cen's ability to strategize really wasn't that great, but he couldn't complain right now! Now that things had come to this, it wasn't in his character to retreat. He could only deal with whatever came his way.
Soon, Qin Guang Hall also fell into chaos. The two of them didn't make much of a move, but Qin Guang Hall's ghost officials and ghost soldiers fell into a sea of living souls. Now, some of the living souls were no longer weak. After devouring so many ghost soldiers' strength, many of them had become stronger. Although they were still far from the level of those ghost soldiers, they could still cause harm to the ghost soldiers with their numbers.
Daoist Cen was still among them, helping the living souls deal with the most troublesome ghost officials. However, Lou Xiaoyi came in front of another group of ghost soldiers. This was the group that didn't wallow in evil, the clear stream that had persisted for tens of thousands of years. There were also dozens of them, among which were the Judges, Black and White Impermanence, Ox-Head, and Horse-Face. They were quietly watching from afar.
Lou Xiaoyi directly revealed his trump card to them. "You must be wondering where the two of us came from. Maybe you already have the direction of your guesses. Then I can tell you now. That's right, we are cultivators from the world of the living. We came here with a purpose! "
When he advised people, he was always frank and straightforward. He openly stated his purpose, striving to achieve a win-win situation. He believed that this was the fastest way to gain the other party's trust, and not to paint a big picture or threaten.
"We want to help you break away from this dark life in the underworld. This isn't entirely for you, but also for us to obtain merit!
Saving a life is better than building a seven-storied pagoda. Saving a life may not be able to build a seven-storied pagoda, but there may be a two-storied pagoda or even a three-storied pagoda. It's of great use to us cultivators!
If we can achieve this goal, it will be beneficial to both of us! But now it seems that your masters still want to struggle on their deathbed?
I'm telling you all this because you are different from them! After persevering for so many years, it's time to reap the rewards! "
The Judge had the highest position among the group of ghost soldiers. He said, "What are the benefits that Exalted Immortal is talking about? Still holding the pipa and covering half of your face? "
Lou Xiaoyi said concisely, "There are three benefits!
In terms of the past, if we succeed this time, you can be at ease and do the things that you could only do secretly before.
Now that the King Yanluo of Hell has a new master, you can openly promote your own ideals, instead of enduring humiliation and suffering in silence.
In terms of the future, if you don't want to stay here anymore, then maybe we can find a way out for you? But I'm not sure now, because those ten masters are still at large. "
The Judge was very calm. "Sorry, before you control the underworld, we can't promise you anything!
Moreover, isn't the control of the underworld in the Immortal Court? Then, if it's a hypothetical, what right do you have to say that you can decide the future of the underworld? "
Lou Xiaoyi smiled slightly. "Then have you thought about why the Immortal Court has given up on the jurisdiction of the underworld for thousands of years, and no immortal has come down?
I can't tell you too much, but there are changes in dynasties in the mortal world, and the same goes for the Immortal Court! It's just that the changes in the Immortal Court are not so frequent!
You are lucky to be in time for this change. I don't dare to say what will happen, but at least this is an opportunity!
Is this what you want to live in this kind of darkness? "
The Judge's expression did not change. "With our ability, we may not be able to help you much …"
Lou Xiaoyi laughed. "There's no need! We don't need your help either!
I'm just here to tell you that although our actions seem to be disadvantageous to you, you know very well what we're targeting!
It's not the souls that have lived for tens of thousands of years, but the system of the underworld!
Now that you have proven your independence under this system, you are the best managers of the underworld in the future!
The opportunity is right in front of you, think about it carefully! "
