He greedily inhaled the abundant spiritual qi in the air, then sneered, revealing his sharp white teeth.
"The changes in heaven and earth have turned the Eastern Continent into a paradise. My journey of a thousand miles was not in vain."
As he spoke, a large army erged from the passageway behind him, clad in dark armor and pale-faced. So of the stronger ones even had multiple arms.
At that mont, he was suddenly startled and glanced at the sky, where he saw a towering golden figure coldly watching them. With a wave of its hand, storm clouds surged, then dispersed, revealing a clear sky.
"Summon Wind and Rain!"
The expression of the black-robed elder turned grim, and soon a rolling black smoke filled the sky. Dozens of towering figures surrounded them, so humanoid, so demonic, each exuding a nacing aura.
The black-robed elder coldly scanned the surroundings, his eyes flashing with intense black light, and he said sinisterly, "Is this all the Mahayana Realm has to offer? Overestimating yourselves..."
Before he could finish, a golden column of light descended with a roar, pinning everyone to the ground.
"Heaven and Earth Spirit Array, how is this possible?"
The elder exclaid, but he and his followers were unable to move, pressed firmly against the ground.
In the sky above, Tai Shi's voice was majestic: "Trespassing on the Divine Continent with malicious intent, you are to be imprisoned and await your sentence."
The surrounding Mahayana demons sward forward. They had long been displeased with the elder's deaning words, so their actions were exaggerated, often twisting arms at every turn.
"Courting death!"
The elder, unable to move under the pressure, was filled with venomous anger. "I am a forerunner priest of the You Dynasty. Our army is right behind, and we will ensure that your Eastern Continent is sacrificed in blood..."
Smack!
A Sea Eye Yaksha General slapped him across the face, "What's with the yelling? The itch in my hands has long been waiting for this!"
Tai Shi waved his hand, closing the passage to the Underworld. Helian Boxiong and Elder Huayan on the ground exchanged grave looks.
"You Dynasty?"
"Imdiately gather a heavy military presence to guard this place. The Divine Continent is likely to face turmoil again..."
...
Black mist lood, and sandstorms rolled.
Amidst the endless cries, ghostly figures from various races wandered aimlessly across the Gobi desert.
Suddenly, a rumbling sound ca from deep underground, and they seed to gain a purpose, each vanishing beneath the surface.
In the distant sky, the golden Dragonbone Divine Ship hovered silently. Zhang Kui, watching with great interest, ford a conjecture in his heart.
Could it be that the reincarnation chanism still exists?
That would be a blessing in disguise...
The shadow of the Nether Soil stone coffin suddenly appeared in his mind, and a smile crept onto Zhang Kui's lips, "It seems I should take so ti to explore the Underworld below."
As he suspected, the Underworld was vast and mirrored the Mortal World, though the terrain was completely different, leaving him to wander aimlessly for days without finding an exit. However, he did encounter wandering yin souls several tis.
At that mont, the world was filled again with that maddening murmur, seemingly emanating from the southeast.
They now knew it was a sign of a massive gathering of peculiar beings in the Underworld.
"What's happening over there?"
Yuan Huang's eyes flashed with interest, and the other great demons were equally curious.
During this ti, Zhang Kui rarely took action, relying on them and the Dragonbone Divine Ship to narrowly escape an encounter with the Sea of Strange, boosting their confidence significantly.
"Let's go have a look..."
Zhang Kui laughed heartily, taking a swig from his wine jug, and the Dragonbone Divine Ship transford into a streak of light, cutting through the sky.
A gathering of peculiar beings likely ant an assault on the remaining Soul Suppressing Tower ruins, perhaps even a chance to find a way out.
Sure enough, in front of them, a Black Tide appeared, with a mountain full of Divine Halls at its center.
Hundreds of three-eyed giant corpse-like figures, similar to those he saw in the Ancient Secret Realm at Ting Mountain, stood on the mountain top. Behind them, the Soul Suppressing Tower buzzed, while red beams shot from the eyes on their foreheads, continuously attacking the peculiar beings...
