I Slay Gods and Demons in the Deceit Night-Chapter 1379 - 722: The Ninth Hall Annihilated!

As for the Mortal World, the Human Race Saint Master left South Mountain Sacred Land and headed north.

But in the Netherworld, it was the Southern Ghost Emperor who left his stronghold, roaming across various places in the Netherworld.

"This wretch is truly savage!"

The two Grand Judges under the Central Ghost Emperor, upon learning the news from various quarters, were both shocked.

In the Netherworld, any high-ranking figure with authority would dare not easily leave their stronghold.

Especially after the Human Race Saint Master dragged the Netherworld into the Mortal World, this became even more so.

Last time, the Western Ghost Emperor went to encircle and kill the Human Race Saint Master, only to have his own lair attacked by the Saint Master, leaving a lingering fear to this day.

The Ninth Hall King Yama attacked South Mountain Sacred Land, his own lair encountered a disturbance, and to this day, he has yet to fully recover his authority.

The previous Southern Ghost Emperor directly faced the Human Race Saint Master and was exterminated on the spot, losing his authority and being completely consumed.

But no one expected that the Human Race Saint Master, who devoured the foundation of the previous Ghost Emperor to become the new Southern Ghost Emperor, would be so fearless, swaggering out of South Mountain Sacred Land and heading north.

"He is warning us."

The Central Ghost Emperor sat cross-legged at a high position, looking down and speaking in a profound tone: "He left South Mountain Sacred Land, yet he can quickly return using the Tribulation Treasure Ship crafted by the First Human Emperor harnessing a dynasty's strength."

"Currently, although all the high-ranking figures in the Netherworld have the capability to vie for authority, they need long-term planning to gradually erode and contend with each other."

"None possess the skills of the Human Race Saint Master."

"In an instant, he devoured the Southern Ghost Emperor."

"His methods are far beyond what this Emperor can compare to."

"Even if this Emperor can suppress the exhausted Southern Ghost Emperor's essence, I cannot completely devour him within a short period."

The Central Ghost Emperor spoke softly: "Similarly... this Emperor also cannot consume his South Mountain Sacred Land in an instant! Thus, he can leave his stronghold while unafraid of the high-ranking figures of the Netherworld... But if we dare to leave, and he infiltrates our base, he might directly seize our foundation!"

He said this, whispering: "With such skills, throughout history, there have been only a few."

The Civil and Military Judges exchanged glances and both fell silent.

These Great Gods are now almost taboo within the Netherworld.

But to the actual high-ranking figures, they aren't unfamiliar.

In ancient times, when heaven and earth were first divided and the Three Realms were set, the Gods of the Netherworld were born carrying the fate of heaven and earth.

Within them, the Nine Springs of the Netherworld each nurtured an Ancient God.

Later on, Yin Tianzi emerged suddenly, annexing the Nine Springs.

"The Ancient Gods of the Nine Springs are not completely dead, so we dare not easily leave our foundation."

The Central Ghost Emperor lightly said: "In the past, Yin Tianzi governed the Netherworld, holding all authority, and had the ability to bestow titles on the Ghost Gods... We were originally gods of the Netherworld appointed by Him."

After a pause, the Central Ghost Emperor continued: "It was thought that, aside from the Ancient Gods, only Yin Tianzi could easily reclaim our authority! Unexpectedly, after Yin Tianzi's death, this Human Race Saint Master actually mastered such skills…"

The Civil Judge pondered and said: "In the past, when Yin Tianzi fell, the human armies invaded the Netherworld, causing chaos throughout the Netherworld, turning it into a mess…"

The Martial Judge murmured: "Later, the Divine Body of Yin Tianzi was divided among all parties; however, the most crucial Dao Fruit's whereabouts are unknown…"

"Yin Tianzi's Dao Fruit?"

The Central Ghost Emperor remained silent for a while, then murmured: "If Yin Tianzi's Dao Fruit transformed into Divine Skills, then indeed, this Human Race Saint Master has the qualifications to devour the entire Netherworld! No wonder the Southern Ghost Emperor appeared so vulnerable when facing this Human Race Saint Master…"

——

Outside the Ninth Hall's territory.

Among the Ten Hall King Yama, the foundation of the Ninth Hall King Yama is currently the weakest.

In the first battle against South Mountain Sacred Land, all parties suffered significant losses to their Yin Soldiers.

And on the next day, when attacking South Mountain Sacred Land again, the mobilized army was essentially the Yin Soldiers of the Ninth Hall.

Following the Ninth Hall King Yama, who returned to his foundation, and abandoned those elite Yin Soldiers of the Ninth Hall, his resources were almost depleted.

Moreover, the heroic spirits of the human clan, led by Shangguan Xuanniao, captured many territories in the Netherworld, seemingly riddling the Ninth Hall with holes.

Currently, the Ninth Hall has become the weakest family.

Even suppressing regional rebellions seems beyond its capability.

Rebellions erupt, flames burn, many Ghost Kings set themselves up independently and raised flags.

Most of these Ghost Kings were originally Commanders of the Shadow Soldiers who defected from the Netherworld's upper ranks, their strength considerable.

Now the Ghost Kings unite, even if the Ninth Hall King Yama returns, it cannot suppress the uprisings quickly.

As the remaining Yin Soldiers of the Ninth Hall are insufficient to quell the chaos in the various territories.

"Prince Jiu, there is news, the Human Race Saint Master has left the south and begun to head north." A judge spoke softly: "It seems to be heading towards us."

"What?" Prince Jiu's pupils narrowed, saying: "Why haven't the Ghost Emperors and Venerate Yama warned this king?"

"The Human Race Saint Master is mighty, they probably do not wish to encounter bad luck, only hoping to complete a Great Array soon and hunt down the Saint Master." The judge whispered: "We fear we've become the Netherworld's abandoned child, allowing the Human Race Saint Master to obliterate us, thereby underestimating the Netherworld and getting surrounded by other high-ranking figures..."

"Treat this king as an abandoned child?"

Prince Jiu sneered: "It seems they believe this king has lost too much territory, authority has dissipated, and without many Yin Soldiers as a backing, I can no longer stand alongside them!"
