Nine Yang Alchemy Emperor-Chapter 1116 - 1126: Secrets of the Underworld

Chu Feng was also intently observing, as for Zuo Mjun Earth Immortal, he was caught in the Illusion Technique of the Demon Eye Evil Spirit King and was still in a bewildered state. He even had no idea that he had eliminated his own people.

Finally, that shadow has arrived under the river surface beneath Mo Yang Earth Immortal.

The fierce ghosts gnawing at Mo Yang Earth Immortal’s Sword Domain Shield scattered in fear. Without the support of the ghosts, Mo Yang Earth Immortal sank like a stone towards the bottom.

However, soon, Mo Yang Earth Immortal’s Sword Domain Shield was lifted by that giant shadow and floated back to the surface.

The surroundings instantly became particularly quiet.

This eerie silence was already felt by Mo Yang Earth Immortal. The unknown threat loomed over Mo Yang Earth Immortal’s mind.

Splish~!

The black drowning water parted by the giant shadow at last fully revealed its appearance to everyone.

It was a humanoid giant monster, with a blue face and fangs, sparse green hair on the head.

In the center of its forehead grew a black horn.

It emitted endless magical power, an eerie and evil aura emanated from the black horn.

"It’s the Ghost King, it really is the Ghost King!"

The experts on the bridge let out terrified screams, each one was trembling with fear. Endless deathly aura wafted from the Ghost King, forming strange gray-black mist swirling around it.

They were like gray poisonous snakes.

It made one’s scalp tingle.

"No... no, don’t kill me, I beg you..." Mo Yang Earth Immortal, scared to the point of urinating, was incontinent on the spot. Despite his confidence in his own cultivation, he couldn’t help but be terrified to the extreme at the sight of the mythical Ghost King.

"Is there really a need to be so scared?" Chu Feng, on the other hand, was the calmest among everyone. "Mokeboer, isn’t the Ghost King equivalent to the Evil Spirit King realm? Not even reaching the Yin God?"

In Chu Feng’s view, whether Ghost King or Evil Spirit, they all belonged to Evil Yin Souls, to Spiritual Bodies.

Even categorizing them together.

"Master truly is fearless due to ignorance! Ghost creatures and us evil spirits, although belonging to the same kind, actually belong to two completely different systems. We evil spirits are malicious entities, forever unable to enter reincarnation. When dead, the soul scatters, vanishing into dust, if advancing, becomes Underworld God. Can control Underworld ghost creatures."

The voice of the Demon Eye Evil Spirit King carried a hint of disappointment.

From his words, although evil spirits could cultivate to become Yin Gods, even govern ghost creatures. But evil spirits were a tier lower than ghost creatures.

It’s like, ghost creatures are good citizens, evil spirits are criminals, and still the kind that can never turn over a new leaf.

"Ghost creatures are living beings recognized by the heavens, still favored by the heavens. Whereas we evil spirits are the abandoned ones by heaven. Ghost creatures can reincarnate, born as humans, animals, flowers, etc. After cultivation, ghost creatures can even prove the path to immortality. This Ghost King’s strength is at least equivalent to human Earth Immortal Realm. Additionally, hasn’t the master noticed? We evil spirits cannot enter the drowning water, yet those fierce ghosts can stay inside without harm. That’s the difference."

The more the Demon Eye Evil Spirit King spoke, the more despondent he sounded, eliciting sympathy.

Chu Feng observed carefully, recalled, and it was indeed true.

Outside the Black Water Lake, even though Death Spirits, Blood Spirits, they’re so powerful, they dared not step half a foot into the Black Lake. As for ordinary evil spirits, they dared not even get close.

Because just touching the black drowning water would immediately end their lives.

They’d be melted away directly.

"Mokeboer, you need not be too despondent. All things have their karma, didn’t you also say? You can still cultivate into a Yin God, become a God, govern ghost creatures. This indicates your status is not inferior to ghost creatures."

Chu Feng didn’t quite know how to comfort someone.

Could only persuade it this way.

"Heh~! The master is probably not aware, although we can become Yin Gods and govern ghost creatures, the significant positions in the Underworld do not fall into the hands of Yin Gods. Especially the military positions. I’m sure you’ve heard of the Underworld’s Civil Judge and military judge, master. Actually, the Civil Judge is an outstanding role from among us Yin Gods. And the military judge is taken by formidable ghost creatures."

"The Civil Judge only handles clerical duties, while the military judge can control the Underworld’s ghost army. So, in terms of status, we Yin Gods are far inferior to ghost creatures. Truly, in battle, we Yin Gods find it hard to be their opponents."

The words of the Demon Eye Evil Spirit King were full of self-mockery.

Unexpectedly, the Underworld had so many intricacies. Even if evil spirits cultivated to the Yin God Realm, could only assume clerical roles.

It’s not hard to discern from its words that ghost creatures are truly the masters of the Underworld. Whereas they, the evil spirits, are at most just workers.

Having the reputation but lacking actual power.

No wonder the Demon Eye Evil Spirit King was filled with bitterness.

During the time of conversation between Chu Feng and the Demon Eye Evil Spirit King, that Ghost King had already begun his attack.

It opened its mouth widely, just as everyone thought it was going to swallow Mo Yang Earth Immortal along with the Sword Domain. Unexpectedly, its tongue shot out sharply, like a sharp sword, viciously striking Mo Yang Earth Immortal’s Sword Domain.

Gaping deathly aura emanated from its tongue.

Like poison, it spread rapidly within Mo Yang Earth Immortal’s Sword Domain. Everywhere it reached, everything within the Sword Domain immediately turned lifeless.

For example, a mountain, with all the trees on it dying.

If the mountain collapsed, it would never again transform into a new mountain.

In just the blink of an eye, Mo Yang Earth Immortal’s Sword Domain had already become a complete dead zone. Leaving only the limp and despairing Mo Yang Earth Immortal, fearfully watching that Ghost King.

Only then did he fight desperately, wielding a Top-Grade magical treasure level treasure sword to fiercely slash at the Ghost King.

Mo Yang Earth Immortal’s strength was indeed not weak. The interwoven sword light was scorching and fierce, like a blazing sun.

"Cackle cackle cackle..."

The Ghost King suddenly let out a sinister and strange laugh, a gray ripple shot out from its horn, silently striking Mo Yang Earth Immortal.

The speed of that black ripple was extremely fast, almost at the speed of light.

Far exceeding Mo Yang Earth Immortal’s sword light speed by at least ten times.

"Um..."

After Mo Yang Earth Immortal was struck by the gray ripple, his entire person shuddered violently, then his gaze turned vacant. The slashing sword light also collapsed with a roar. The whole person lost the ability to resist, becoming a wooden block, allowing the Ghost King to consume him.

In the blink of an eye, a living person turned into a skeleton.

Then sunk to the bottom of the Wangchuan River.

After the Ghost King consumed an Earth Immortal, its abdomen bulged high. Round spheres resembling fleshy tumors emerged.

They continuously wriggled.

Upon close inspection, Chu Feng’s scalp prickled. Each sphere was a human face.

Including Mo Yang Earth Immortal who was just swallowed.

If the guess was correct, it grew a corresponding tumor for every person it consumed.

Dense and numerous, at least several hundred of them. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Just how many people had it consumed?

Witnessing the Ghost King’s terror, no one wished to fall down.
