Time to Replenish
"Has the story that the Western Heaven Brahma Court was searching for been found?"
Above the Imperial Court.
The Venerable's words were detached and ethereal, yet possessed a certain sacred and transcendent aura.
A look of horror appeared on the face of the Heavenly Pole Divine King.
Does the Imperial Court... know about what happened in the Forty-Ninth Star Domain?
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty does not know."
He lowered his head and spoke.
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt as if he were being looked at by an unparalleled being.
That one glance sent shivers down his spine, as if the deepest recesses of his soul had been laid bare before him.
There are no secrets left.
It's over...
The Heavenly Pole Divine King was terrified.
The Venerable now know everything that he did in the Forty-Ninth Star Domain.
Joining forces with the Western Heaven Brahma Court to destroy the Heavenly Dao of the Seven Sub-Star Domains... This is a grave crime, and I will be put on the Execution Platform and torn to pieces!
However, the wrath of the Venerable he had imagined did not come.
"Go down."
The Venerable's indifferent voice rang out.
The Heavenly Pole Divine King vanished with the sound and reappeared outside the South Heaven Gate.
He was somewhat incredulous that he had actually survived.
The Venerable uttered no words of punishment.
Suddenly, he recalled the words spoken by the Brahma King Liaochen of the Western Heaven Brahma Court:
"Before such beings, Brahma and the God-King are but pawns, nothing more than stones thrown into the river of cause and effect."
At that moment, he suddenly realized something. Could it be that...
He immediately bowed deeply towards the imperial court before departing.
"There is only one thing in this world that can make the Ghost Realm care so much."
Even in the imperial court, the Venerable's grand voice continued to resound.
"Yellow smoke rises, beacon fires cease; reincarnation ends, the ghost realm empties... That's quite interesting."
"Let us examine the lives of countless beings in the lower realms; can we truly invoke that eternal cycle of reincarnation?"
The words were ethereal, the indifference as sharp as a knife.
The endless lower realm.
War rages across the star system.
"The Divine Realm will not intervene. Nearly a thousand star fields have already been destroyed by the Ghost Realm... They will remain on the sidelines!"
In a certain star field, an old master was in despair. Ten days ago, they had already lit the flames of war.
For ten whole days, the Ghost Realm conquered three major star regions and had already reached their region.
However, before the divine realm arrived, all living beings in the entire realm could only await their death.
"Our home... we can't go back... run, run!"
In the starry sky, a warship was rapidly traversing the void. The people on board, watching the stars behind them gradually dim and shrouded in deathly aura, wailed and fled in haste.
"Someone please save my child... my child!"
On a fallen star, a mother weeps as she sees a vengeful ghost pierce her child's heart with its claws.
She desperately tried to save her child, but her chest was ripped open by a demon, and even her fragile soul was devoured by it...
This was a catastrophe.
"This is insane, absolutely insane!"
On a star realm, a Ghost Lord looked at the countless ghostly creatures on the already dead star realm, frantically devouring massive amounts of souls, and couldn't help but shake his head.
"Killing someone is one thing, but why devour their soul as well..."
"In this way, these deceased people don't even have the chance to become ghosts... It's really unwise!"
Behind him, a ghost general trembled, saying:
"But Ghost Lord King... everyone is almost at their limit, the 'Resentment Hunger' is about to flare up..."
This ghost general is Heitian, the commander of the "Giant Peak Camp" under the command of the Mingzhi Ghost Monarch!
The Mingzhi Ghost Monarch turned around and looked at his subordinates.
A group of ghosts, their faces glowing green and their eyes gleaming with a bloodthirsty crimson, twisted and raged!
"This 'Resentment Hunger' has flared up prematurely... it must have been triggered by the killing."
The Mingzhi Ghost Monarch murmured to himself.
--In the realm of ghosts, all ghosts are unable to escape a curse -- Resentment Hunger.
Cultivation in the ghost realm uses death energy as its source, but this death energy is often mixed with resentment.
The more powerful the ghost becomes, the stronger its resentment grows, and it will erupt periodically.
When it takes effect, the ghost loses its mind and is controlled by "resentment," becoming a twisted killing machine. Only after devouring enough ghosts and blood will the "resentment" be satisfied and recede...
Otherwise, they will be driven mad and their souls will be scattered.
This is called "Resentment Hunger"!
The cycle repeats endlessly; no ghost can escape!
Along the way, the subordinates of the Mingzhi Ghost Monarch were stimulated by the blood and devouring everywhere, and their Resentment Hunger were about to erupt!
"Damn it... I'll risk it!"
The Mingzhi Ghost Monarch gritted his teeth, raised his hand, and said:
"Resentment should be directed at me!"
In an instant, tens of thousands of his subordinates, each with wisps of resentment in their souls, converged upon him!
The countless crimson ghost eyes of his subordinates gradually returned to calm.
"Ghost Lord King, you've already endured Resentment Hunger once this month for the brothers... This can't go on!"
Heitian spoke, trembling, saying:
"Blood and fresh souls are everywhere, sir... please let the brothers deal with this themselves!"
But the Mingzhi Ghost Monarch slapped him across the face and said:
Shut the hell up!
"As long as I'm alive, you'll never become like the other ghosts!"
As he spoke, he gritted his teeth, his ghostly power surging wildly, drawing all the resentment from his subordinate ghosts into himself!
His ghostly eyes turned crimson, and his ghostly body trembled. Even as a Ghost Lord, he could barely withstand absorbing so much resentment.
"Aaaaaah, I can't take it anymore... female ghost, give me female ghost!"
The Mingzhi Ghost Monarch roared in terror.
Suddenly, a group of female ghost emerged from the army behind him, each one dressed in flamboyant attire, with curvaceous figures and devilish curves.
"My Lord Ghost Lord King... you've been thinking about it again..."
"I love you to death..."
"What are we waiting for...?"
A group of beautiful female ghosts.
"Shut the hell up and take off your clothes!!!"
With a wave of his hand, the Mingzhi Ghost Monarch unleashed a massive cloud of ghostly mist, which swept the female ghost away from their spot.
"Heitian Commander, Ghost Lord, this is the second time this month..."
Behind the commander, a ghost general suddenly spoke.
He is the commander of the "Slim Waist Camp," Leng Wudi!
Yes, the Mingzhi Ghost Monarch named his army after his favorite thing...
Giant Peak Camp, Slim Waist Camp.
Leng Wudi's face was clearly filled with worry as he said:
"Those demons can devour the resentment within the Ghost Lord... but they can also gnaw at Ghost Lord very essence..."
"If this continues, Ghost Lord King will die..."
The reason why the subordinates of the Mingzhi Ghost Monarch were able to remain uncontrolled by Resentment Hunger was because the Mingzhi Ghost Monarch himself bore the brunt of Resentment Hunger.
His way of dealing with Resentment Hunger was by relying on the power of those demons.
Those female ghost will devour the resentment within him, and at the same time, they will gnaw on his essence!
In the realm of ghosts, this way of resolving Resentment Hunger is considered suicide.
Commander Heitian, who had just been Mingzhi Ghost Monarch, now had bloodshot eyes and said:
"Don't I know?"
"In the Ghost Realm, even those at the King level who resolve Resentment Hunger through ghosts cannot live past five hundred years... The Ghost Lord himself has been Ghost Lord for over four hundred years..."
He clenched his fists.
Leng Wudi was silent for a moment, then said:
"If there are any signs of the Resentment Hunger next time... Commander, you will lead the brothers of the Giant Peak Camp and directly devour our Slim Waist Camp to relieve your Resentment Hunger!"
"We must never again let Lord Ghost Lord suffer the Resentment Hunger for us!"
His words clearly carried a sense of certainty that he was about to die!
Heitian looked behind Leng Wudi and saw that the ghost soldiers of the Slim Waist Camp all shared the same resolute spirit as Leng Wudi...
Clearly, the Slim Waist Camp was already well-prepared...
Seeing this, Heitian suddenly smiled and said:
"Sure, let's play rock-paper-scissors. If you beat me, I'll bring my men and eat you all."
"If you lose, you'll have to eat our Giant Peak Camp obediently!"
Upon seeing this, Leng Wudi was also taken aback and looked towards the Giant Peak Camp.
All the ghosts in Giant Peak Camp had the same fearless expression!
Leng Wudi couldn't help but say;
"You... are you ready too?"
Not long after, the Mingzhi Ghost Monarch finally returned with a group of ghosts.
The group of female ghost were now radiant, their alluring and seductive aura even more pronounced.
But the Mingzhi Ghost Monarch the Underworld had a face as holy as a Buddha!
He was like a sage, utterly serene!
"Ghost Lord..."
Heitian stepped forward, a hint of guilt in his eyes, and said:
"Please take the medicine to nourish your body."
He took out some small black pills.
That medicine nourishes the ghost's body, but in reality, what the underworld damages is the most important essence, making this medicine ineffective.
It can only be that something is better than nothing.
The Mingzhi Ghost Monarch casually tossed a handful of medicine into his mouth, his expression somewhat complicated, and said:
"I really need to get some supplements... otherwise people will always say I'm underdeveloped..."
Heitian: "..."
Leng Wudi: "..."
Soon after, the banner of the Mingzhi Ghost Monarch fluttered in the wind.
New orders have been issued.
"Mingzhi Ghost Monarch, join forces with the other Ghost Lord to attack the 40th to 50th Star Domains of the Divine Realm. Take them within one month, or face execution!"
After the Ghost Domain breached the outer star fields, its army launched a full-scale attack, and now... it can finally approach the first thousand star fields in the God Realm.
The first thousand domains are precisely the target of those existing in the Dead Land.
This is where reincarnation occurs!
