Besides the Azure Firmament Celestial Star Formation Diagram, there's also the World-Breaking Blade.
Because it repeatedly cleaved through space, the World-Breaking Blade absorbed a large amount of spatial power, as well as the World Force that were adrift in the void.
Furthermore, Xu Long's cultivation level increased, causing the World-Breaking Blade to improve at a faster rate than that of stronger individuals.
As for the Soul Whisperer, their levels are gradually falling behind.
Xu Long decided to see how things went; if it didn't work, he would replace the " Wood Qi Essence " on the Azure Firmament Celestial Star Formation Diagram.
That skill, which generates wood energy to heal injuries, is basically useless to Xu Long.
Therefore, instead of occupying a skill slot, it's better to replace it with something more useful.
With the Tree Demon Granny dead, the remaining female ghosts naturally became spoils of war.
"Immortal, spare my life!"
"Immortal, spare my life!"
A group of female ghosts, some fat, some thin, some big, some small, some sexy, some beautiful, they had everything one could want.
They were all kneeling on the ground, their faces filled with fear.
"Immortal, if you spare our lives, we'll do anything you ask!"
One of the female ghosts voiced her desire, and the other female ghosts immediately echoed it.
However, Xu Long looked down on such women, finding them too dirty to even keep as maids.
Over the course of decades and centuries, these female ghosts have harmed countless men.
Don't be fooled by their current pitiful and helpless appearance; when they were killing people, they were all incredibly ruthless.
"Spare my life? Dream on!"
Xu Long snorted coldly and killed all the female ghosts except for Nie Xiaoqian.
There was no other reason for keeping Nie Xiaoqian around; it was simply to await the arrival of the Old Demon of Black Mountain.
Master Black Mountain intended to marry Nie Xiaoqian. If Nie Xiaoqian dies, will the Old Demon of Black Mountain still come?
Upon seeing Xu Long appear, Nie Xiaoqian trembled with fear.
That night's experience was devastating for her. It felt like being a cow on a dairy farm, constantly being milked but not allowed to be bred. Anyone would go crazy in that situation.
She considered running away, but with the incredibly powerful Tree Demon Granny already killed, how could she possibly escape?
He kept touching her, but never took it any further, driving Nie Xiaoqian to the brink of collapse.
Seeing Xu Long again now was like a nightmare.
"Don't worry, I won't kill you, at least not until I see the Old Demon of Black Mountain."
Xu Long smiled, pulled Nie Xiaoqian into his arms, and continued to touch her amidst her despairing gaze.
"Master Yan, would you like to try it? It feels amazing!"
Upon hearing Xu Long's words, the female ghost began to tremble again.
One person isn't enough, do you need two?
She now desperately wants to marry the Old Demon of Black Mountain, something she's never even considered before.
Fortunately, Yan Chixia was a decent person with principles and a bottom line, and he couldn't do such a shameless thing.
The two people and the ghost returned to Lanruo Temple, quietly waiting for the Old Demon of Black Mountain's wedding procession to arrive.
Time flew by, and on the fourth night, a pitch-black door suddenly appeared, from which terrifying yin energy emerged.
Xu Long slowly opened his eyes; he knew the gates of hell had opened.
Thump!
Thump!
Thump!
A chilling atmosphere pervaded the air, accompanied by the deafening clamor of gongs and drums.
A Legion zombies dressed in red and wearing red straw hats carried a sedan chair toward them.
Xu Long knew that it was a mark left by the Old Demon of Black Mountain on Nie Xiaoqian, and that she could find it no matter where she was.
Although these zombies cannot speak, they can still distinguish between humans and ghosts.
Upon seeing Xu Long and Yan Chixia, they immediately launched an attack.
Xu Long naturally wouldn't stand on ceremony with them, instantly killing them with a single move before entering the gate with Yan Chixia.
The Old Demon of Black Mountain's true form is a Great Black Mountain in the Underworld, possessing unfathomable strength and profound power.
When he achieved success in his cultivation, he constructed an independent world between the Human Realm and the Underworld, capable of simultaneously accommodating both living beings and inanimate objects.
If it were just about entering the Underworld, Yan Chixia could manage it without needing to leave Nie Xiaoqian behind. However, entering the Black Mountain Realm created by the Old Demon of Black Mountain was not so easy.
"It seems the Old Demon of Black Mountain is quite confident in himself!"
Xu Long smiled and stepped inside.
If it were a cowardly monster like Tree Demon Granny, upon seeing her subordinates killed, she would definitely close the door to her lair immediately.
But the Old Demon of Black Mountain was different; he was more powerful and more confident.
Therefore, the gate between the two realms was opened wide, awaiting Xu Long and Yan Chixia to enter.
"Is this the Black Mountain Realm?"
Looking at the endless darkness in the distance, and then at the pitch-black water at his feet, Xu Long felt that this place truly deserved its name, Black Mountain Realm.
It's really dark!
It's even darker than someone's ex-girlfriend's!
It's as black as a steak that's been blown apart by firecrackers!
The air was filled with a dense yin energy, mixed with resentment and death energy. Ordinary people who entered this place would be instantly corrupted into evil creatures such as zombies and corpse demons.
Only cultivators like Xu Long and Yan Chixia could survive in the Black Mountain Realm.
" The Netherworld guides the way, but Hell has no gates! Formless and shapeless, yet entangled by a hundred afflictions!"
A sinister voice, like that of an old crow, rang out. Xu Long turned his head and saw a ghostly light slowly approaching.
It was only a few hundred meters, but it took them a full ten minutes to walk—a speed even a snail would find slow.
Upon getting closer, Yan Chixia realized that it was actually a dilapidated little boat.
"Gagaga!"
The old man who had been on the boat came out of the cabin. He had a hooked nose, a hunched back, and a sinister look on his face, like a hyena ready to devour its prey.
In the mortal realm, hundreds of miles away from Lanruo Temple, a bald old man appeared out of nowhere.
"Hmm? The aura has disappeared?"
The bald old man pulled a tortoise shell from his pocket, bit his finger to squeeze out a few drops of blood, and then began to mutter incantations.
About ten seconds later, a glint of light flashed in the bald old man's eyes. " Black Mountain Realm? This is going to be difficult!"
"But it's difficult, so we have to deal with it. They dared to kill my offspring and are still so arrogant. If I don't talk to them nicely, do they really think Laozi 'm made of clay?"
The bald old man snorted coldly, made a grasping motion in the air with both hands, and then suddenly exerted force, tearing a gash open.
It was pitch black and eerie, with a dense aura of yin energy emanating from it, enveloping an area of several dozen meters in radius and spreading rapidly.
