"Lord Truesoul, is the core of the Three Realms really just to stabilize the balance of the Three Realms?"
Ye Chen suddenly asked after Hei Tong left.
"Hmm?"
Lord True Spirit's expression changed as he revealed an amused smile.
"Ye Chen, why do you ask?"
"Ha, I'm just curious. There's no reason why!"
"Curious? Hahaha! "
The two of them laughed at the same time, but their eyes were fixed on each other. It was obvious that there was a deeper meaning between the two of them.
The True Spirit Lord was unfathomable. Whether it was his cultivation base or his shrewdness, Ye Chen gradually came to the conclusion that the so-called core of the Three Realms was just an excuse. The True Spirit Lord must have a deeper purpose. Otherwise, he would not have taken the risk to come to the Underworld and even forcefully absorb the Underworld energy.
Although the Netherworld energy had given the people of the True Spirit Hall the foundation to ascend, the people of the Spiritual Realm would eventually be repelled if they absorbed the Netherworld energy. There had to be some other purpose.
Ye Chen understood that the True Spirit Lord would not easily reveal his true purpose. He could only play by ear and adapt to the situation.
"Hu, hu, hu!"
Intimidated by the Lord of True Spirit, Hei Tong quickly returned to Outpost 72.
Whoosh!
His figure flashed into the sentry post, and when everyone saw that it was Hei Tong, they did not stop him.
"Hei Tong, why are you so flustered?"
Seeing Hei Tong in such a sorry state, the Azure Dragon Founder asked.
"This is bad! The Lord of the Spirit World has descended!"
"What?"
The Azure Dragon Founder was stunned at first, then his brows furrowed and his expression changed greatly.
"The Lord of the Spirit World is the Lord of the True Spirit World. His cultivation base is unfathomably deep, and there are even people who speculate that he will ascend to the Immortal World. What does he mean by coming to the Netherworld?"
"I don't know. This person's power is too mysterious. My magical power was shattered by him in just a single move. I almost lost my life. Damn it!"
"This is a grave matter. I have to report this to Hell Sovereign!"
"Report quickly!"
After Hei Tong was done speaking, he proceeded to leave to observe Ye Chen and the rest. Meanwhile, the Azure Dragon Founder turned on the screen again.
"Azure Dragon Founder, what do you think this is? Why are you disturbing me again?"
On the other side was Elder Bai Zhu, who was concocting pills. It was obvious that he had been disturbed by the Azure Dragon Founder.
"Elder Bai Zhu, please calm down. There's an emergency here!"
"What's the situation?"
"The True Spirit Lord has descended."
"What? True Spirit Lord?"
Elder Bai Zhu was similarly shocked. The True Spirit Lord was an extremely powerful existence in the Spirit Realm, and back then, he was someone who could contend against the Underworld Lord. Such a person had descended, and now that the Underworld Lord's whereabouts were a mystery, no one could contend against him. The situation was dire, and they had to deal with it as soon as possible.
"Continue to observe the True Spirit Lord's whereabouts. Report to me immediately if there are any abnormalities!"
"Yes, Elder Bai Zhu!"
The Azure Dragon Founder bowed slightly, and the light screen disappeared.
On the other side of the light screen, Bai Zhu's expression was extremely ugly. He was no longer in the mood to concoct pills, so he went directly to an altar.
He released his Netherforce and lit the huge candle twice. Then, he dripped his blood to activate the formation.
"Boom!"
The spell formation was activated. Instantly, a dark light illuminated the nine heavens, and a huge figure appeared in front of them.
"Phew …"
He exhaled a mouthful of Netherworld Qi and sat on his throne, looking down at Elder Bai Zhu.
"Bai Zhu, why did you summon me through the blood sacrifice array?"
"Hell Sovereign, the True Spirit Lord of the Spiritual Realm has descended upon the Netherworld. How should we deal with it?"
"True Spirit Lord?"
Hell Sovereign opened his eyes slightly. His huge eyeballs were like copper bells, constantly turning.
"A long time ago, this person formed an alliance with the Netherworld Lord and created the core of the Three Realms together to stabilize the space of the Three Realms. Could it be that he is here for the core of the Three Realms?"
"We haven't found out his purpose yet, but what Hell Sovereign said is very true."
Elder Bai Zhu agreed with what Hell Sovereign said.
Hell Sovereign sneered and looked at Bai Zhu. "Although this person is strong, the Netherworld is our home ground. There is no need to panic. Inform all the major outposts to monitor this person's whereabouts. We must not let him find the core of the Three Realms."
"Yes!"
Elder Bai Zhu bowed slightly, and Hell Sovereign disappeared.
He released his Netherforce and quickly sent out orders to the seventy-second outpost.
In the seventy-second outpost, the Azure Dragon Founder waited for further orders. At this moment, Elder Bai Zhu's orders appeared in the void.
"Stop the True Spirit Lord from finding the core of the Three Realms at all costs!"
"Yes!"
The Azure Dragon Founder nodded slightly, then released his Netherforce and turned into a bird, chasing after Hei Tong.
In the outside world, the True Spirit Lord and the others left the Darkwater Mountain Range and continued to search for traces of the core of the Three Realms.
As for Hei Tong, who had been defeated earlier, he released his clones and continued to track the True Spirit Lord.
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
At this moment, the bird arrived and stopped in mid-air, turning into words.
"Yes!"
Hei Tong nodded slightly at the Azure Dragon Founder's order. He channeled his Netherforce and released more clones, informing the other outposts to work together.
On a peak, the True Spirit Lord closed his eyes slightly and raised his hands high. Waves of psionic and Netherforce mixed in mid-air, creating a two-colored light ball.
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
The two-colored light ball constantly released energy and spread in all directions.
The True Spirit Lord released his psionic power to enhance the light ball's power. In a short while, everything within a thousand-mile radius was scanned by the light ball.
This was the artifact that the True Spirit Lord used to find the core of the Three Realms — the Underworld Spirit Pearl.
"Is this his purpose for absorbing the Darkwater?"
Seeing the True Spirit Lord's action, Ye Chen immediately began to connect the dots and came to a conclusion.
The Underworld Spirit Pearl suddenly reacted and a strange light shot into the True Spirit Lord's brow.
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
The strange light entered the True Spirit Lord's mind. No one knew what message it carried.
"Hahaha, very good!"
Suddenly, the True Spirit Lord opened his eyes and smiled proudly.
"Eight hundred miles north, let's go!"
"Yes!"
The people of the True Spirit Palace accepted the order. Ye Chen and the other two looked at each other and followed them onto the spirit boat.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"
The spirit boat flew past and headed straight for its destination.
Hei Tong's clones noticed all of this and quickly reported to him.
"They went to the thirty-sixth outpost. Looks like I'll have to act fast."
Hei Tong frowned and released a Netherforce Formation, gathering the psionic power from many outposts onto his body.
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
With a flash of Netherlight, Hei Tong's figure disappeared.
Ten seconds later, Hei Tong appeared in a new space.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"
He flew towards a high peak.
"Who are you?"
"Outpost 72, Hei Tong!"
"Lord Hei Tong, open the door!"
"Rumble!"
The door of the thirty-sixth outpost opened and Hei Tong flew in.
In the main hall, the thirty-sixth outpost's general, Lang Xing, came out to welcome him.
"Hei Tong, how did you come to my outpost?"
"Taoist Lang Xing, the Spiritual Realm Almighty is heading toward the thirty-sixth outpost. You must be prepared."
"Spiritual Realm Almighty? Hahaha, what a joke! "
