In these several seconds, Chi Huo and the fragnt ford an intense reaction.
Afterward, the dark fla between Gu Shen’s brows gradually dissipated, the Netherworld King fulfilled his mission of exercising "authority" and returned to Gu Shen’s Heart Sea—
Bai Xiu exhaled slightly, knowing he didn’t need to take action.
"How is it?"
Little Xiuzi asked with concern, "Did you successfully extract the Heavenly Sheath Fragnt?"
"Hmm..."
Gu Shen nodded, took out a Black Silver box, and placed the Heavenly Sheath Fragnt inside. He said seriously, "This thing carries a strong curse and is extrely dangerous... It can integrate into the blood and, if stabbed without sharing, there’s a high chance of losing all abilities, ultimately becoming ’mundane’."
Just now, during the confrontation.
Even "Netherworld Fire" expended considerable effort.
Of course, this is also due to the small quantity of "Netherworld Fire"—
Setting aside quantity, purely discussing quality, the power of this "Heavenly Sheath" is indeed sowhat frightening. His own "Netherworld Fire" is divine-level power, so what exactly is the origin of the stone sword standing in [Snow Cage]?
"These fragnts, if restructured using spirit after extraction, will beco terrifying weapons."
Bai Xiu first realized the horror of the Heavenly Sheath.
"Indeed..."
Gu Shen looked at the fragnt inside the Black Silver box and murmured, "If those Transcendent criminals are all gathered by Han Dang... After extracting the fragnt, he may very likely forge an unprecedented ’Heavenly Sheath Weapon’."
A forbidden weapon with the ability to scatter essence.
This weapon, in Han Dang’s hands, isn’t considered terrifying.
The terrifying part is—
Within their camp, there are also two titled!
"Any titled figure is an important pillar of Central City and Changye..."
Bai Xiu frowned and said, "The ergence of the Heavenly Sheath Weapon will cause many unforeseen changes in battles among titled figures."
Currently, temporary combat bases have been built on the north and south sides of the Tundra.
Both Central City and Changye have dispatched powerful titled figures to guard this, the final line of defense for the encirclent mission!
"Gu Shen, I’m personally going to the base for a trip."
Bai Xiu said earnestly, "I will relay everything regarding your situation to the command center..."
Gu Shen single-handedly killed four high-ranking criminals.
Yuan Zhong’s death exposed Han Dang’s transactions.
Bai Xiu transmitted these critical ssages out imdiately—yet it’s still not enough, he has a premonition he should best go back in person to et Mr. Gu.
"You head off first... Once the trivial matters here at the camp are settled, I’ll co over."
Gu Shen chose not to set off with Bai Xiu.
There are still so affairs to handle at this temporary base camp—
Mu Qingyang hasn’t woken up yet.
Most importantly... These three corpses haven’t been handled.
With Bai Xiu present, it’s not convenient for him to exert his true power.
Once Little Xiuzi left, the tent beca utterly silent, with only one "living person" remaining.
Gu Shen arranged several Qingzhong Ancient Talismans at the four corners of the tent, sketching a simple array pattern, then released his Chi Huo to reinforce the barrier... ensuring nobody would disturb him, he returned to the three headless corpses.
Within him, a familiar "impulse" surfaced.
Like what happened once in the Linden Forest—
Seeing these deceased corpses, a desire inexplicably surged within, wanting to make these "deceased" stand again.
In the tent where no one could hear.
Gu Shen’s voice lightly echoed.
"Stand up."
This was a command, a divine decree.
The Netherworld King, who presides over life and death, exercised his own "authority."
"Crunch crunch..."
Layers of solid ice began to lt, and those layers of Silent Annihilation covering the Poison Ghost trio really started to dissolve and scatter.
Three words spoken by Gu Shen resulted in those three headless corpses actually beginning to "wake up"!
The weakest, Silver Eyes, moved first.
Then was the White-haired Ghost, lastly the Poison Ghost—
All three corpses, deprived of their heads, under Gu Shen’s "authority’s" coverage, t their "rebirth." Only this rebirth was not a true reversal of the iron law of life and death.
They couldn’t speak and had no true consciousness of their own.
Their strength after revival was also significantly reduced.
"The strongest Poison Ghost only retained the strength of the Deep Sea Seventh Level...a whole major stage down...with such strength, it’s impossible to wield realms."
Gu Shen looked at the "divine miracle" he created.
After these three revived, the speed at which the stored essence within his Pure Land accelerated consumption was noticeably increased.
"The Pure Land truly exists... Since my promotion, the authority of the Netherworld King can gradually be exercised..."
Validating this hypothesis ant Gu Shen finally relaxed the thought that had been lingering within him.
After these three revived, without further orders, they began to move slowly.
The Poison Ghost directly reached for his head, extending his hand to hold and attempt to reattach it—
Gu Shen spoke coldly, "Roll back."
"Buzz!"
The divine decree descended again, and the Poison Ghost placed his head back.
The three bodies, under the suppression of the Netherworld King’s authority, acted obediently. They stumbled to rise before slowly toppling down again, only that Gu Shen’s Spirit Sea transmitted a faint wave of intentional fluctuation.
"They are asking for the freedom to act."
Gu Shen squinted his eyes; it was his first ti utilizing the Netherworld King’s authority.
These three, upon revival, utterly lacked hatred or resentnt—
Directly beca pawns within the Netherworld King’s Pure Land.
Their fate was tightly grasped by Gu Shen.
If Gu Shen willed them to live, they couldn’t die; if he willed them to die, they couldn’t live.
"Upon their revival...though their strength greatly diminished, they still count as a fighting power." Gu Shen finally comprehended why the previous Netherworld King desperately sought to cultivate a Pure Land.
The Netherworld King made thorough preparations in[Maze], Nether River.
Once he owned a Pure Land, these deceased could all "stand up"!
Stand up and be used by him!
What fervent believers or sacrificial Death Soldiers can’t compare to revitalized deceased... As long as enough essence is available, they can continuously stand up.
With the Netherworld King’s reserves.
In a very short ti, he can possess an army of his own.
Light City?
This is the most prosperous place for incense in the West Continent, a "sanctuary" established after much effort over generations by the Light God’s Seat.
But once the Pure Land is constructed.
Very soon, the Netherworld King will own his "paradise."
Gu Shen tried the power of authority that could be called eerie.
Perhaps because they were stabbed by the Heavenly Sheath Fragnt while alive, the quantity of essence from the Poison Ghost trio scattered significantly, and the mont they revived, the dissipation of essence stagnated, indicating the "rules" deed them no longer in a death state.
Divine Miracle.
This is a Divine Miracle.
Originally, Gu Shen intended to heavily resist the Heavenly Sheath Curse using "Netherworld Fire" and extract the fragnts from the stone sword, but now it’s unnecessary.
Under his intent.
The three headless corpses started extracting the fragnts themselves.
Soon, the Black Silver box was filled densely with Heavenly Sheath Fragnts.
All power in this world is balanced; the stronger it is, the greater the cost required—
The authority of the Netherworld King indeed defies the heavens, but it brings significant negative effects to the user’s spirit!
Soon.
Gu Shen detected a situation in his Spirit Sea similar to the earlier one in the Linden Forest; his mind began to dull, thoughts ceased to be clear.
He imdiately operated the Breathing thod to stabilize his mind, then took a deep breath, issuing a new command to the three regrouping Poison Ghosts.
"Lie down!"
He withdrew the authority.
The three headless corpses instantly lost all air, dead beyond dead.
"Phew..."
The Heavenly Sheath fragnts have now been completely extracted.
Now there’s only one final task left.
Gu Shen summoned Chi Huo and softly said, "Swallow all this essence."
He wouldn’t gather the three Poison Ghosts into the Pure Land; the essence of these three corpses will gradually dissipate, and this mont is the pri opportunity for consumption. After all, they were three fourth-tier individuals, and this essence isn’t trivial.
Chi Huo received the order and lunged forward.
The tent was soon engulfed in flas.
This was a satisfying feast.
