Dragon King Hall's Legend-Chapter 1722: Parting Ways! Journey’s End! Underworld Residence!

Mu Jinyu watched Qingli's proud figure heading towards the Four Mythical Creatures, and couldn't help but admire her courage.

However, knowing she wasn't a match, yet stubbornly insisting on a blood battle, he thought it wasn't a wise decision.

Especially since they had no reason to fight to the end, right?

If it was a situation like when the Divine Race army invaded Earth, he, knowing he wasn't a match, would still choose to fight to the bitter end, shedding his last drop of blood!

But in the current situation, Mu Jinyu couldn't understand why they had to stubbornly stand their ground against these four corpses.

Especially since, after defeating them, the Earth Emperor's Tome might send even stronger corpses to siege you. Isn't that asking for trouble?

"Alas, forget it, she's not my wife anyway; why should I care if she lives or dies!"

Mu Jinyu shook his head slightly, unwilling to deal with Qingli's one-track mind, and continued running forward!

He thought to himself that Qingli's actions were somewhat beneficial to him, at least by intercepting the Four Mythical Creatures' corpses, allowing him to keep moving forward to see if he could find traces of the Earth Emperor's Tome and subdue it!

"Roar!"

"Screech!!"

"Boom!!"

Behind him, the sounds of intense fighting continued to echo.

As Mu Jinyu ran forward, listening to the sound, the image of Qingli struggling alone against the four Divine beast bones surfaced in his mind, causing him some inexplicable reluctance.

However, he had no intention of going back to help Qingli.

It was meaningless!

Better to find the Earth Emperor's Tome first. If he could subdue it, the four Divine beast bones would naturally disappear, and Qingli wouldn't be in danger.

They were complementing each other, in a way!

Quickly, as Mu Jinyu ran further, the fighting sounds behind him gradually faded away.

"Bang!!"

Mu Jinyu slashed forward with a knife, and the blocking army of Yin Soldiers was instantly reduced to gray ash under his attack!

"Clang!!"

At the same time, the battered long knife he had taken from the Yin Soldiers finally couldn't hold up any longer, and with a mournful sound, shattered and disappeared in specks of gray light before his eyes.

"The path I'm taking should be the right one; the number of Yin Soldiers is increasing, so the Earth Emperor's Tome should be up ahead..."

Mu Jinyu didn't pay much attention to the destruction of the long knife, sensing the increasingly terrifying aura ahead, he muttered.

Although the evil aura ahead was far more terrifying than the Four Mythical Creatures he just encountered, he wasn't afraid.

The reason he avoided the Four Mythical Creatures earlier and came this way was because the corpses of the Four Mythical Creatures were tough to fight without much to gain!

But despite the terrifying aura there, the Earth Emperor's Tome was likely nearby, naturally worth a gamble!

Thinking this, Mu Jinyu continued to run forward, wanting to subdue it before the Earth Emperor's Tome released more powerful Underworld Generals!

"Hoo hoo..."

Soon, as Mu Jinyu was running, he encountered a group of Lost Souls, their faces blurred, dressed in the simplest linen clothes, slowly lining up and walking forward.

When Mu Jinyu first saw them, he thought they were another group of Yin Soldiers and couldn't help but throw a punch, but he couldn't scatter their souls, not even causing a ripple in their forms.

Moreover, these Lost Souls quietly lined up and walked forward without any malice, giving people a strange feeling that made Mu Jinyu reluctant to attempt to destroy them.

"Hmm..."

After pondering for a moment, Mu Jinyu decided not to bother with them and continued to stride forward!

Soon, Mu Jinyu had run about ten more miles.

Then, among the queue of people ahead, he saw a massive gate made entirely of eerie white bones. Above the gate was a huge, sinister skull, with mysterious runes inscribed between its brows!

[Ghost Gate of the Netherworld!]

"Ghost Gate?! No wonder these Lost Souls felt off, so that's how it is..."

Seeing the Ghost Gate appear, Mu Jinyu became even more certain that this was where the Earth Emperor's Tome set up a trap to destroy any foreign race thinking of subduing it!

And the ten-mile-long queue of Lost Souls wasn't real Lost Souls, but rather an image left behind from the Earth Emperor's lifetime, intended to construct a Netherworld Residence and the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

"Let's go in and see!"

Mu Jinyu wasn't afraid, and by reaching this point, he was seventy percent sure he could find the Earth Emperor's Tome and subdue it to become his Magic Treasure.

Soon, Mu Jinyu arrived in front of the Ghost Gate and nonchalantly cut in line to go inside.

Once he cut in, the ground beneath him was no longer covered in a thick layer of bone ash, but a crimson-yellow terrain, a color resembling a fusion of countless corpse waters and the soil.

"This should be the Road to the Netherworld, right?"

Mu Jinyu took a glance at the somewhat disgusting road, frowned, and mused to himself.

Walking on the Road to the Netherworld, Mu Jinyu saw more wandering Specters, their faces clearer than those outside, some with ghastly features, incessant bleeding, or heads smashed with only half remaining, or ashen faces covered in corpse spots, presumably those who died a natural death...

As Mu Jinyu's gaze swept over them, he scanned the surroundings and saw on the fifty-meter-wide crimson-yellow soil, patches of crimson flowers.

At first glance, they seemed like a blazing Sea of Fire.

But on closer inspection, it became clear they were formed by small red flowers, although these flowers were oddly shaped, their petals resembling human faces, forming a flower that seemed ready to devour people.

"Since these flowers are beside the Road to the Netherworld, they should be Other Shore Flowers, but they sure are ugly!"

Mu Jinyu curled his lips and remarked softly.

"Rustle..."

As his words left his mouth, the crimson glow suddenly flared, with an evil aura emanating, the Other Shore Flowers swayed as if understanding Mu Jinyu's words and wanting to bite him.

"Tch~"

Mu Jinyu wasn't afraid of them, disdainfully clicking his tongue, reluctant to spare the Other Shore Flowers another glance, continuing to stride forward.

Soon, he reached the end of the relatively short Road to the Netherworld.

"Rumble!!"

A continuous rushing river sound came from ahead. Looking up, he saw a river about thirty-three meters wide, its length unknown, the waters muddy and dark, with white bones, corpses, and human skins bobbing within, along with occasional piercing ghost wails.

And at the end of the Road to the Netherworld, a bridge stretched from the river's right bank to the left, constructed entirely of green stone, with reddish-brown stains on the bridge deck, possibly bloodstains!

"This should be the River of Oblivion and the Naihe Bridge, right?"

Mu Jinyu mumbled as he regarded the river and the bridge.

He noticed that many Specters that entered the Ghost Gate wandered on the Road to the Netherworld, some occasionally devoured by Other Shore Flowers, with only a few slowly reaching the end and stepping onto the Naihe Bridge!

"Since there's a Naihe Bridge, there should also be a Homeward-Viewing Platform and Meng Po, right?"

Thinking this, Mu Jinyu strained his eyes to look, and through the mist shrouding the Naihe Bridge and the River of Oblivion, he saw on the opposite shore a mound of yellow earth, with an elderly woman of indistinct features and seemingly gentle smile, ladling soup for the Lost Souls to drink.
