Cultivators of the Yin Underworld Realm

Mu Xue nodded and said, "It's good that Daoist Chen is alright."

"Madam Mu, how come so many Ghost Creature have suddenly appeared?"

Chu Buyu asked curiously.

"I don't know either. This happened very suddenly. Let's eliminate these Ghost Creature first."

Mu Xue said.

A short while later, Ye Lin and the other three returned one after another.

"It escaped from a Nascent Soul Realm Ghost Creature, so I killed a Nascent Soul Realm Ghost Creature."

Ye Lin said.

"Nascent Soul Realm stage Ghost Creature are too troublesome. If we didn't have the numerical advantage, we probably would have been killed as well."

A voluptuous woman in a gold dress frowned as she spoke.

"Let's talk in the Council Hall!"

Chen Haoming suggested, and led Shen Long and the others to the Council Hall.

The Council Hall was mostly collapsed, and traces of the power struggle could be seen.

Chen Haoming sat down in the main seat, while Shen Long and the others sat down to the side.

"Daoist Chen, do you know where this Ghost Creature came from?"

Ye Lin asked.

"They probably broke out of the Ten Thousand Ghost Mound; it seems someone broke the seal."

Chen Haoming frowned and said.

"Ten Thousand Ghost Mound? How come I've never heard of this place before?"

Ye Lin asked, puzzled.

"I grew up in the Western Desert Cultivation World and have never heard of the Ten Thousand Ghost Mound."

Mu Xue looked puzzled.

"It's normal that you don't know. If Senior Huang hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known such a place existed either."

Chen Haoming explained.

"Senior Huang? Daoist Chen, are you referring to Senior Huang Ziqi?"

Ye Lin asked politely.

Huang Ziqi is Spirit Transformation cultivator, born in the Western Desert Cultivation World. Chen Haoming seems to know Huang Ziqi.

Chen Haoming nodded. "That's right, it's Senior Huang. Speaking of which, it's been many years since I've seen him."

"Daoist Chen, what is your relationship with Senior Huang?"

Xu Xin asked curiously.

"My great-grandfather had some dealings with Senior Huang. We are very grateful to all of you fellow Daoists for coming to support our Chen family this time. Our Chen family will definitely not treat you unfairly."

Chen Haoming expressed his gratitude.

Mu Xue wasn't surprised, but Shen Long and the others were somewhat astonished that the Chen family actually had a connection with Huang Ziqi.

"Daoist Chen, you're too kind. It was nothing at all. By the way, what's the story behind the Ten Thousand Ghost Mound?"

Ye Lin asked curiously.

"You should all know about the Mysterious Yin Grotto-Heaven! The Ten Thousand Ghost Mound is somewhat similar to the Xuan Mysterious Yin Grotto-Heaven. It is filled with Yin Qi energy and teems with Ghost Creature. A Ghost Creature at the Spirit Transmutation Realm once appeared there, but it was destroyed by True Monarch Gan Tu before it could harm the mortal world. I heard that there is a Spatial Node in the Ten Thousand Ghost Mound Tomb that leads to the Yin Underworld Realm. True Monarch Gan Tu sealed the entrance, perhaps Inner Demon demonic and Evil Cultivator causing trouble. He didn't tell the other cultivators where the Ten Thousand Ghost Mound is, he only mentioned that such a place exists. Senior Huang doesn't know where it is either."

Chen Haoming spoke slowly.

If other cultivators knew the location of the Ten Thousand Ghost Mound, it wouldn't be a problem in the short term, but given enough time, some high-level cultivators would definitely covet the cultivation resources inside the seal and forcibly break it.

Shen Long's face showed a thoughtful expression. The True Monarch Seven Stars's approach was similar: he sealed the Spirit Transmutation Realm Devil Race in a certain place without informing the cultivators of the Gan Yang Realm, otherwise someone would have broken the restriction long ago.

"A route to the Yin Underworld Realm? Can the Ghost Creature of the Yin Underworld Realm bypass the Interface Power and come here?"

Ye Lin asked, puzzled.

"It's hard to say. As long as there's a stable and secure Interface Passage, it wouldn't be surprising if Ghost Creature from the Yin Underworld Realm reached the Gan Yang Realm."

Chu Buyu said.

"The environment of the Ten Thousand Ghost Mound is very similar to that of the Mysterious Yin Grotto-Heaven. It is filled with Yin Qi energy and numerous Ghost Creature, hence the name Ten Thousand Ghost Mound. However, after so many years, there are definitely not many high-level Ghost Creature left."

Chen Haoming said.

"Daoist Chen, is it possible that a Spirit Transmutation Realm Ghost Creature appeared in the Ten Thousand Ghost Mound, broke the seal, and led a large number of Ghost Creature out of the Ten Thousand Ghost Mound to wreak havoc on the human world?"

Ye Lin put forward a bold conjecture.

"Probably not. If there were Ghost King at the Spirit Transmutation Realm, these Ghost Creature wouldn't have scattered and fought individually."

Mu Xue analyzed.

"No matter what, we must deal with these Ghost Creature as soon as possible. If the Ten Thousand Ghost Mound really has Spatial Node leading to the Yin Underworld Realm, we must seal that Spatial Node. If Ghost Creature from the Yin Underworld Realm come over, the entire Gan Yang Realm will suffer."

Chen Haoming frowned and said, as if remembering something, "Fellow Daoists, please stay at our Chen family's residence for now! I have already sent people to repair the Large Communication Array and contact other major forces."

Shen Long and the others did not refuse and agreed.

Chen Haoming summoned members of the Chen family to arrange accommodations for Shen Long and the others.

Shen Long lived in a three-story Cyan Pavilion. He activated the pavilion's restrictions, entered the Ten Thousand Beast Tower, and with a flick of his wrist, the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove flew out from the Spirit Beast Bracelet.

Shen Long summoned the Hundred Ghost Scroll and infused it with a spell. The Hundred Ghost Scroll Hundred Ghost Scroll emitted a blinding black light, and a large number of Ghost Creature flew out from it.

Enjoy your food!

Shen Long said.

"Thank you, Master."

The Nine-Headed Ghost Dove gave a thank you, and each of its four heads emitted a beam of blue light, which enveloped the Ghost Creature, pulled them into its mouth, and swallowed them.

Before long, the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove devoured these Ghost Creature.

"It's a pity there are no Nascent Soul Realm Ghost Creature; these guys aren't even enough to fill my teeth."

"Nine-Headed Ghost Dove said angrily."

Shen Long took out two Yin Bead, which were left behind by the Nascent Soul Realm Yin Bead stage Ghost Creature and contained pure Yin energy.

With a flick of his wrist, two Yin Bead flew out of his hand and towards the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove.

The Nine-Headed Ghost Dove opened its mouth and swallowed the two Yin Bead, saying happily, "Thank you, Master. I feel like I'm about to advance to the middle stage."

"A large number of Ghost Creature have appeared in the Western Desert Cultivation World. We should be able to capture quite a few high-level Ghost Creature. You should come back first! We'll give you a good meal later."

Shen Long gave the order.

The Nine-Headed Ghost Dove agreed and flew back to the Spirit Beast Bracelet.

Shen Long exited the Ten Thousand Beast Tower and sat cross-legged on a Red Prayer Mat to meditate and regulate his breathing.

······

A vast expanse of sand stretched out before a massive fissure, from which thick, eerie Yin Qi billowed and spread in all directions, from which countless Ghost Creature emerged.

Deep within the crack, in a gray, misty space, a chilling wind blows.

A massive Thunder Cloud floated high in the sky, accompanied by flashes of lightning and thunder. Thick silver lightning bolts ripped through the sky and struck down one after another, illuminating the space and revealing numerous Ghost Creature.

One after another, Lightning Tribulation struck a small valley surrounded by mountains on three sides, and powerful shockwaves swept across the valley, filling the sky with smoke and dust.

A quarter of an hour later, the Thunder Cloud churned and surged, revealing four kinds of electric arcs: blue, red, green, and gold. After churning and surging, the four-colored Thunder Cloud transformed into a gigantic Four-Colored Thunder Python, which swooped down from the sky.

A Black Giant Palm flew out from the lightning and struck the Four-Colored Thunder Python.

With a deafening roar, the Four-Colored Thunder Python's body exploded, transforming into a massive ball of Four-Colored Thunder Light, with billowing shockwaves.

After a while, a terrifying aura of yin Yin Qi shot into the sky.

The lightning and gloom dissipated, revealing a tall young man dressed in black. His body was covered with mysterious black patterns, seemingly formed naturally, and his eyes were emerald green.

"I've finally advanced to the Spirit Transmutation Realm. To return to the Yin Underworld Realm, I need to open a stable Interface Passage."

The young man in black muttered to himself.

Judging from his words, he came from the Yin Underworld Realm.

He transformed into a streak of black Escape Light and vanished into the sky, followed closely by a large number of Ghost Creature.
