Background

The Fengdu Ghost Domain was long dismissed as folklore associated with hell, though it is a real and elusive place known to only a small number of high-ranking officials and ancient families. Its true location was historically unknown, and humans who entered were said never to return. It is inhabited by evil spirits, wraiths, Ghost-type Phantasmal Beasts, and the Ghost Clan. 415 490

Many infamous wraiths in the human world are believed to have escaped Fengdu during previous openings, including creatures such as Sadako, the Witch, Terror Puppet, and Wax Figure Clown. These entities can reform from resentment and fear after defeat, making their souls exceptionally difficult to destroy outside the domain. 490 528

The Ghost Clan resides within the domain and manages its dangerous spirit populations to prevent them from entering the human world. Its people fuse with life-bound Evil Ghosts from childhood, gaining their powers while risking backlash and eventual consumption by the fused ghost. Royal Ghost Clan members possess bloodlines that can suppress evil spirits and travel freely across the River of Yin and Yang. 490 500 501

Guardianship

The three leading powers of the Fengdu Ghost Domain are collectively described as “Southern Mao, Northern Ma, Central Red Eyes”:

• Jing Hong Clan — the Ghost Clan’s Royal Clan; its members govern from the central region and possess powerful suppression over Evil Ghosts. 501 586
• Ma Family — southern exorcist Beast Masters who command Exorcist Divine Dragons. 586 626
• Mao Family — northern guardians who cultivate sentient Dao Talismans and wield wooden swords. 586 626

These families have guarded the domain for generations, maintaining its stability and preventing powerful evil creatures from escaping into the human world. 626 673 719

Access and the Three Lives Gate

The Fengdu Ghost Domain becomes accessible during the Night Parade of One Hundred Ghosts, a phenomenon that occurs once every thousand years. A spatial rift releases resentment and death energy, allowing Evil Ghosts to move toward the human world while wraiths outside seek to return to their homeland. 528 536 541

Access feature	Details
Three Lives Gate	Nine immense, carved gates appear in the sky when the domain opens. The three central gates are significantly larger and bear the names Past Life, Present Life, and Future Life. 541
Entry resistance	The domain itself repels outsiders; stronger entrants may face greater resistance. Ancient families brought elders and Old Ancestors to force entry for their younger members. 527 565
Gate guards	The gates possess powerful defenses and guards. Entering or leaving is difficult even for Evil Ghosts, making the opening an opportunity to eliminate escapees. 551
Royal access	A Ghost Clan Royal Clan guide can greatly ease entry. The gate guards also recognized Chen Xuan’s Netherworld Pearl and addressed him as “Lord.” 547 548
Gate boon	Some entrants who pass through receive a physique suited for fusing with Evil Ghosts. 554

Environment

The Fengdu Ghost Domain has no visible sun; a strange purple moon hangs over its dark landscape. It contains numerous King-grade Phantasmal Beasts, dense ghostly energy, and regions where resources and hostile creatures are far more concentrated than in the human world. 566

Its Ghost-type creatures often grow by devouring souls, blood, fear, or Soulfire. Evil spirits are especially dangerous because their spread can resemble a contagion despite their individual combat power not always being overwhelming. 490

Major Regions

Region	Description
Royal Palace	Seat of the Jing Hong Clan’s Royal Clan, where Ghost Clan, Ma Family, and Mao Family leaders coordinate responses to major threats. 527 603

Foretcourt Domain	A hidden area that appears at a special time, connects to the Yin-Yang Land, and disappears again after absorbing Yin-Yang energy. It remains present for seven days after reappearing. 675
Underworld Forest	A dangerous forest within the Foretcourt Domain. Its plants can evolve into carnivorous Phantasmal Beasts after absorbing Yin-Yang and blood energy. 677
Reincarnation Flower Forest	The blood-colored domain of the Reincarnation Flower Queen, whose Blood Sea attacks all intruders indiscriminately. 707 709

Native Hazards

• Soul-devouring entities — Ghouls and Evil Ghosts prey on living souls to strengthen themselves; ordinary Beast Masters often cannot perceive or control some of them. 410 490
• Carnivorous flora — Plants in certain forests absorb energy from other creatures, while some trees bind and devour Ghost-type Phantasmal Beasts. 573
• Vampiric beings — Vampires inhabit dark areas of the Burial Ground, feed on blood, and can revive so long as at least one heart remains. 593
• Yin-energy infection — Creatures of the Yin-Yang Land are hardened by prolonged Yin exposure; their bites can infect victims with Yin energy and cause loss of consciousness. 719
• Resource competition — The domain contains rare Spirit Herbs, Spirit Flowers, Soulfire, undead materials, and Evil Ghost-type Phantasmal Beasts coveted by outside Beast Masters. 559 563 626 694

Major Events

Revelation in the Human World

Ghost Clan members appeared in the human world while observing human souls achieve Buddhahood, confirming both the Ghost Clan’s existence and the reality of the Fengdu Ghost Domain to outside observers. Ancient families immediately recognized the chance to locate the domain and acquire its Ghost-type resources. 415

Escape of the Crimson Blood Ghost King

The Crimson Blood Ghost King escaped Fengdu and entered the human world after deceiving Jinghong Xiao You. Its escape demonstrated that even highly intelligent Evil Ghosts could evade Ghost Clan control. 490 501

Night Parade of One Hundred Ghosts

During the once-in-a-millennium Night Parade, the entrance was identified within the Dark Ghost Domain. Major human families—including the Zhuge, Fifth, Taihao, Sima, and Gongsun families—sent elite Beast Masters into Fengdu to seek resources and learn the Ghost Clan’s Evil Ghost fusion methods. 522 527 563 565

The opening also caused masses of Evil Ghosts to rush toward the Three Lives Gate. Although some escaped toward the human world, the gate’s defenses destroyed the overwhelming majority. 551 559

God of Darkness Crisis

The God of Darkness, a vampiric entity of the Burial Ground, intended to seize control of Fengdu and enter the Yin-Yang Land. After its Four Heavenly Kings were killed, it absorbed their souls and regained its complete form, alarming the domain’s guardians and awakening ancient powerhouses. 609 663 664

Chen Xuan ultimately defeated the God of Darkness in the Yin-Yang Land and acquired its complete Bloodthirsty Heart. Its death caused the remaining creatures of the Burial Ground to flee. 671

Opening of the Yin-Yang Land

The death of the God of Darkness was followed by crimson clouds and the blooming of Reincarnation Flowers in the north. The appearance of the Foretcourt Domain drew Fengdu’s inhabitants and outside Beast Masters toward the Reincarnation Flower Queen, guardian of the Yin-Yang Land’s entrance. 674 675 696

Entry requires the Yin-Yang Twin Pearls—the Netherworld Pearl and Yang Life Pearl—and access to the key held by the Reincarnation Flower Queen. 674 675
