A flood of memory fragments poured into Xiao Hei's mind.
Xiao Hei also fully recalled every detail of his experiences in the Demon King Domain.
But who exactly is that man in white?
As for his own background... judging from the current situation, it is inextricably linked to the Evil Devil Domain.
But if he was from the Evil Devil Domain, why did the man in white send him to the Mortal Realm?
They were sent to the Demon King Domain, which is to their adoptive parents.
All of this has become a series of mysteries.
Based on these mysteries, Xiao Hei was also puzzled as to why a fragment of his soul would appear in the Nine Nether Underworld.
Although when using the Heavenly Devil Disintegration, one's soul will be divided into two souls and six spirits, scattered to various places in the Mortal Realm, one soul and one spirit will remain in one's body for reincarnation.
But why did it fall into the Nine Nether Underworld?
When they were in the Cloud Dream Marsh, Senior Liu had said that he was waiting for them to save him.
Considering this, could it be argued that fragments of one's soul were deliberately taken to a certain place by someone else?
Could it be the man in white from my memory?
Could the mastermind behind everything that Master spoke of be that man in white?
At the River of Forgetfulness, Xiao Hei slowly opened his eyes, which were filled with doubt and solemnity.
The mystery of one's own origins may not be so simple...
Perhaps, asking the higher-ups of the Nine Nether Underworld might yield some clues.
But now it's time to leave; the objective has been achieved.
Xiao Hei raised its head and charged straight upwards!
Wherever Xiao Hei went, the stench of poison dissipated, and snakes, insects, and swarms of ghosts all gave way.
It seemed as if the demonic energy swirling around Xiao Hei had intimidated him...
Four days have now passed.
On the opposite bank of the River of Forgetfulness, Tan Zongzhao and the others showed surprise in their eyes.
No one present could have survived at the River of Forgetfulness for four days!
Some are even speculating.
Could it be that Xiao Hei was already dead, but was possessed by a ghost below, which is why the higher-ups of the Nine Nether Underworld didn't detect it immediately? That's why they thought Xiao Hei was still alive?
However, this guess was immediately refuted by Tan Zongzhao, who also made a sarcastic remark.
The original quote was. "Is your brain as faulty as Shen Jie's? What kind of power do the higher-ups of the Nine Nether Underworld have? They suppressed so many lonely souls in the River of Forgetfulness, how could they possibly be unable to detect them?"
But on the fourth day... which is today, even Tan Zongzhao couldn't help but have this suspicion creep into his mind...
After all, this duration is simply outrageous.
And at that very moment...
Tan Zongzhao's expression changed immediately, his pupils contracted, and he stared intently at the center of the River of Forgetfulness!
Shen Jie and the others were also drawn over by the wisps of demonic energy and the commotion emanating from the river.
Thump!
A dark shadow suddenly leaped out of the river!
Immediately, Xiao Hei's figure landed in front of Tan Zongzhao and the others.
Everyone looked at Xiao Hei with surprise on their faces.
Not only did he not have any injuries, but his physical strength was also greater than before!
It seems that he has already entered the realm of God Emperor.
What's even more noticeable is that the demonic energy emanating from Xiao Hei is even more oppressive than before, causing them to involuntarily feel a sense of submission!
Tan Zongzhao hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "How are you?"
It must be said that Tan Zongzhao very clever; he didn't directly ask Xiao Hei what he was doing down there or what kind of secret treasure he had obtained.
Such sensitive matters can be discussed naturally if one wants to; there's no need to interfere.
However, if Tan Zongzhao asks, it will also reduce Xiao Hei's trust in Tan Zongzhao.
Xiao Hei shook his head and said, "It's nothing."
Tan Zongzhao nodded slightly, feeling relieved.
It seems I didn't make the wrong bet; Xiao Hei has the qualities that make him want to befriend him!
At this moment, the sound once again resounded throughout the space.
"The fourth stage is a free-for-all. Everywhere you look is a battlefield. There are no special rules. The last two people standing will advance to the final round."
The River of Forgetfulness vanished, leaving behind only a wasteland of withered bones.
Tombstones, withered bones, and broken swords are scattered across this land, stretching as far as the eye can see.
Swords clash, the earth is riddled with holes...
The melee has begun.
No one made any rash moves.
The people standing here do not belong to the same faction. They may have heard of each other, but that does not mean they can trust each other.
Tan Zongzhao stood with Xiao Hei, clearly indicating an alliance.
However... often the first alliance is formed only to be targeted by others.
Shen Jie looked at Tan Zongzhao and sneered, "It seems you're determined to fight alongside him?"
Tan Zongzhao at Shen Jie and smiled, "Didn't you want to spar with me? Now's your chance."
"Want a one-on-one fight?" Shen Jie laughed. "This is a free-for-all. Since you formed an alliance first, you'll naturally be kicked out."
The other five people also moved closer to Shen Jie.
Ke Dalai stood beside Shen Jie, took out a large sword and slung it over his shoulder, and laughed loudly, "You two are now in an alliance of two. Are you perhaps planning to directly target the next person for the test?"
Seeing this, Tan Zongzhao and said, "It seems you're not too stupid after all."
Just as Shen Jie was about to shout angrily, Xiao Hei frowned slightly and said, "Are we still going to fight or not? I'm in a hurry."
Xiao Hei wanted to complete all the assessments quickly so he could meet the most powerful person in the Nine Nether Underworld and ask why his soul fragment had appeared here.
Hearing what Xiao Hei said.
Shen Jie laughed angrily, "Heh, even if your physical body reaches the God Emperor Realm, you're still no match for us."
"I heard you come from the Mortal Realm? If it were the Mortal Realm hundreds of thousands of years ago, perhaps that would be something to be wary of, but now... it's quite remarkable that someone like you has emerged."
Tan Zongzhao at Xiao Hei and said, "Don't be goaded. Since it's a free-for-all, we must..."
But he hadn't finished speaking.
But then Xiao Hei transformed into a black shadow and darted away!
Tan Zongzhao slapped his forehead.
What kind of alliance is this?!
Isn't it just a matter of each person fighting their own battle?
Why is it that all body cultivators in the Mortal Realm act so recklessly?
Seeing Xiao Hei charging towards him, Shen Jie sneered, golden light swirling around his hands, and said, "Leave him to me. You all work together to deal with Tan Zongzhao first!"
Upon hearing this, Ke Dalai and the others all nodded.
This is also what they were thinking.
Among those present, Tan Zongzhao was undoubtedly the strongest. Unless they joined forces to defeat him, Tan Zongzhao was not someone that any one person could defeat in a one-on-one fight!
Shen Jie charged towards Xiao Hei!
"You frog in a well, you've only peeked at the outside world from the edge and you're already so arrogant. Let me tell you how big the outside world is!"
