Yuding! Taiyi! Huanglong! The Underworld's Authority

Although he was a disciple of the Cult Master Tongtian in the East Sea, he had no contact with the people of the Chan Sect in the Mount Kunlun.

He also had little contact with people from the Chan Sect.

However, the Holy Mother Jinling had often heard from her fellow disciples how arrogant the people of the Chan Sect were.

After thinking for a moment, the Holy Mother Jinling transformed the words spoken by her fellow disciples into less offensive language.

As for why the Holy Mother Jinling was able to recognize these guys from the Chan Sect.

For cultivators, conveying their appearance and aura is incredibly easy!

In the past, the Holy Mother Jinling didn't really believe what her fellow disciples said.

After all, the Chan Sect were disciples of Sage, so how could they be as despicable as her fellow disciples described?

But seeing you today...

Holy Mother Jinling felt that her fellow disciples had perhaps been a little too tactful in their words.

A third-generation disciple at the level of Daluo Golden Immortal dared to force his way into the Underworld.

Meanwhile, the three second-generation disciples of the Chan Sect were simply watching the show silently.

Especially considering the cultivation levels of these three individuals, it would be understandable if they were at the Quasi-Sage level, since Quasi-Sage are already the strongest beings below Sage in the Primordial World.

They have the right to be arrogant.

However... Huanglong True Person Late Daluo, True Person Taiyi Perfection Daluo, and Yuding True Person Late Daluo.

Three, no, four Daluo Golden Immortal dared to venture into the Underworld.

This can't even be described as arrogance.

This is simply... outrageously arrogant!

Holy Mother Jinling inwardly complained.

Ghost Gate Pass.

Move the timeline forward.

Let's go back to the time when Yang Jian first entered the Underworld.

Gazing at the shattered Ghost Gate Pass in the distance, Yang Jian's master, Yuding True Person, stared wide-eyed, clutching his heart in disbelief.

"How... how dare he?"

Yuding True Person never imagined that he had only gone to ask his senior brother for help, but arrived a step too late, and returned to this state.

"It's all over, it's all over... How dare Erlang break through the Ghost Gate Pass and rush into the Underworld!"

If it weren't for his two senior brothers by his side, Yuding True Person would probably have already burst into tears.

Not to mention Yang Jian's master, Yuding True Person, even the Huanglong True Person and True Person Taiyi standing to the side were somewhat terrified at this moment.

As disciples of the Jade Void Sect of the Chan Sect, they had an extremely good understanding of the forces in the Primordial World.

Although arrogant, he was also clear about who he could offend and who he couldn't.

For example, criticizing the Jie Sect for no reason is considered politically correct and Great Dao conflict between the Chan and Jie Sects. Even if things get heated, their master, Celestial Venerable Yuanshi, will always support them.

But the Underworld is different...

The Underworld is under the influence of Lady Pingxin and Sage Pingxin.

Moreover, it is blessed with a destiny to be responsible for the reincarnation of countless beings in the Primordial World, making it a place of great merit and karmic significance.

Is this a place where you can act recklessly?

"You hothead, Yuding, your disciple is truly a hothead..." True Person Taiyi cursed in a low voice with a dark face.

"Yuding, when you were teaching Yang Jian cultivation, didn't you teach him any common sense about the Primordial World?" Huanglong True Person, standing to the side, said in a low voice with a somewhat unpleasant expression.

"I... I did teach you! It's just..." Yuding said with a mournful face.

The words he had spoken to Yang Jian involuntarily came to mind.

Mount Jade Spring, Golden Cloud Cave!

Inside the Yuding True Person.

Having just escaped the pursuit of the Heavenly Court Soldiers and Generals, Yang Jian, who had been taken in as a disciple by Yuding, was now diligently cultivating, harboring hatred for the Heavenly Court and an unwavering desire to rescue his mother.

Meanwhile, the Yuding True Person, with his otherworldly and otherworldly appearance, was looking at his new disciple with satisfaction.

Putting aside the mysterious Heavenly Eye on the other party's forehead, his own talent alone was enough to move him.

This is the kind of talent that could be sent to Mount Kunlun, and even directly become a disciple of the Sage Celestial Venerable Yuanshi, becoming his junior brother.

But...

"Since I've encountered him, he must be my disciple." Yuding True Person thought to himself, his eyes sweeping over Yang Jian, growing increasingly satisfied.

At this moment, Yang Jian's heart was filled with hatred for the Heavenly Court and an obsession with rescuing his mother.

Yuding True Person didn't seem to care much about Yang Jian's deep-seated hatred and obsession.

The Heavenly Court is powerful, but the Kunlun Jade Void Palace lineage is not to be underestimated.

Only...

Although Yang Jian was precocious, he was still just a young boy facing heavenly soldiers and generals, and the colossal Heavenly Court.

Even with boundless hatred, deep in his heart, fear still took root; the young Yang Jian feared the Heavenly Court.

Upon realizing this, Yuding True Person immediately frowned.

He didn't care about hatred or obsession; his lineage of cultivation didn't necessarily require ruthlessness or the loss of all humanity. But fear...

If this threat is not eliminated as soon as possible, even if Yang Jian is free from the dangers of inner and outer demons as a disciple of Sage, it will definitely become a weakness in his future.

Then...

"My disciple Yang Jian, come here." Yuding True Person beckoned to Yang Jian with a smile on his face.

"Let me tell you about my Jade Void Palace lineage, and about the identity of your grandmaster, Celestial Venerable Yuanshi."

"Your grandmaster, Celestial Venerable Yuanshi, was Sage."

"Sage, do you know what Sage is? A sage is the pinnacle of the Primordial World, the strongest in the entire Primordial World."

"The Primordial World is vast and boundless, but there is truly no one that my Jade Void Palace lineage cannot afford to offend or provoke."

"So don't be afraid. It's just the Heavenly Court; there's no need to fear it. Once you've achieved mastery in your cultivation, you can carry the name of my Jade Void Palace and openly and honestly rescue your mother."

"As for the Heavenly Court, I, your master, will handle it. Even if I can't hold them off, your grandmaster is still here..."

Thinking of his past teachings to Yang Jian, Yuding True Person wished he could go back in time and slap himself across the face.

Let yourself know that even if you want to dispel the fear in your disciples' hearts, you don't need to make such definitive statements.

Pity.

The Primordial World river of time was suppressed by the Four Sacred Beasts, so even the Daluo Immortals, who possessed the Divine Ability to travel back to the past and to the future, could not use it.

"My two senior brothers, the most urgent thing right now is not to blame Yang Jian, but to find a way to resolve this matter!"

Yuding True Person pointed to the other side of the Ghost Gate Pass Netherworld Underworld, where Yang Jian, who was engaged in a fierce battle with the Daluo Ghost Emperor of the Underworld, spoke weakly.

"This..."

Both Huanglong True Person and True Person Taiyi paused and looked in the direction of the Netherworld Underworld.

Honestly.

Although they called Yang Jian hothead, his talent was truly exceptional.

They were even better than him.

After all, even they couldn't achieve the status of Daluo Golden Immortal in ten thousand years.

And...

As fellow members of the Chan Sect, they were far more knowledgeable than others about Yang Jian's cultivation methods Divine Ability Cultivation Method.

The Nine-Turn Essence Refining Art Nine-Turn Essence Art, practiced by Yang Jian, is an extremely profound and orthodox method within the Chan Sect. Those who master it are immune to all magic and indestructible for countless eons.

This is the orthodox Daluo cultivation method of the Mysterious Gate).

After achieving the Daluo, Yang Jian further cultivated the Chan Sect's supreme divine skill, the "Eight-Nine Profound Art," and it had already begun to show results.

If Yang Jian hadn't been cultivating for so short a time, given enough time, Yang Jian could have fully mastered the Eight-Nine Profound Art.

At this moment, the Daluo Ghost Emperor, who was fiercely fighting Yang Jian, was no match for Yang Jian even for a single move.

Such talent.

It can be described as Primordial World unparalleled talent.

If they were to perish here, even the Chan Sect would likely be heartbroken.

Moreover, if Yang Jian, as the eldest disciple among the third-generation disciples of the Chan Sect, were to perish in the Underworld, the Chan Sect would absolutely become a laughing stock in the Primordial World.

Especially the Jie Sect.

Huanglong True Person and True Person Taiyi had already imagined the 36,800 words of ridicule the Jie Sect would deliver to their Chan Sect in the Jie Sect.

"We are entering the Underworld... We, the third generation of the Chan Sect's most senior disciples, must not perish Underworld."

After a brief silence, True Person Taiyi spoke first, his gaze fixed resolutely on the shattered Ghost Gate Pass before him.

"Taiyi is right, I, Yang Jian, cannot perish in the Underworld."

Huanglong True Person also spoke, his expression solemn.

"Taiyi Brother Taiyi, Senior Brother Huanglong."

Yuding True Person's eyes were filled with emotion.

To trespass into the Underworld —what kind of deep affection would it take to be willing to go there with him?

"Rest assured."

Having made his decision, True Person Taiyi naturally stopped thinking about anything else. His expression returned to calm, boosting the confidence of Huanglong True Person and Yuding True Person.

"I've thought it through carefully; the danger of us venturing into the Underworld isn't actually that great."

"Although the Netherworld Underworld is a place of reincarnation, with heavy karma, we do not interfere with the Six Paths of Reincarnation, so that great karma has little to do with us."

"As for the ghost cultivators in the Netherworld Underworld, they lack physical bodies and are not orthodox. Even after hundreds of millions of years, perhaps a few Quasi-Sage ghost beings exist."

"But with us joining forces, and with the protection of our spiritual treasures, we have nothing to fear."

"I have already sent a message to my fellow disciples, and they will be here to provide support soon."

"As for that one..."

At this point, True Person Taiyi paused.

As disciples of Sage, they naturally knew some of the Sage Divine Ability, and being in the Netherworld Underworld, they dared not mention the name of Lady Pingxin.

"Although this Netherworld Underworld was created by someone, for countless millennia, there has never been any record of that person managing Underworld."

"These are trivial matters, surely they won't alarm that person," said True Person Taiyi solemnly.

Listening to True Person Taiyi's analysis, Huanglong True Person nodded in agreement.

At this moment, Yuding True Person was deeply moved.

Although True Person Taiyi's analysis makes a lot of sense, analysis is still just analysis, especially when it involves Sage.

Even the slightest possibility is definitely not a safe thing.

Without the slightest hesitation, Yuding True Person revealed a resolute expression on his face.

"Please rest assured, my two senior brothers, if things fail, and either of you blames me, I Yuding, will bear all the consequences."

Upon hearing Yuding's words, both True Person Taiyi and Huanglong Renzhen smiled.

"Good junior brother!"

"However, this was a decision we made together, so how could we let you bear the responsibility alone? If any problems arise, we will naturally share the burden."

"Senior brother!"

"Junior brother!"

"Senior brother!"

The three Daoist priests gazed at each other with deep affection.

"Senior brother..."

"We should head to the Underworld now, or it will be too late if Erlang is captured soon," said Yuding True Person with deep emotion.

Huanglong True Person: "..."

True Person Taiyi: "..."

The Netherworld Underworld.

The battle between the Daluo Ghost Emperor of the Underworld and Yang Jian was fierce, reaching a point of frenzy.

Even though the Daluo Ghost Emperor only possessed a cold, ghostly body, he still harbored boundless fervor within his heart—a raging inferno of war.

However, Yang Jian was not in the mood for that at the moment.

His thoughts were consumed by his mother, making it impossible for Yang Jian to enjoy the battle here. He attacked like a madman, determined to defeat the Ghost Daluo and then find his mother.

But...

In terms of aptitude, the Daluo Ghost Emperor may be far inferior to Yang Jian, but the extra billions of years of arduous cultivation have resulted in a difference in more than just cultivation level and Divine Ability.

The more anxious Yang Jian became, the less able he was to defeat the Daluo Ghost Emperor.

At this moment, the Daluo Ghost Emperor clearly saw Yang Jian's anxiety and gradually came to his senses from his high fighting spirit, a hint of regret appearing in his eyes.

If it were a different time or a different place, he really wanted to continue fighting Yang Jian for another 30,000, 300,000 rounds.

But...

Yang Jian was anxious and unwilling to fight for long.

After he regained his senses, he realized that this was the Netherworld Underworld, not a place for him to fight.

"Yang Jian..." The Daluo Ghost Emperor called out Yang Jian's name, a solemn look appearing in his eyes.

"I acknowledge you. Of all the people I have ever met in my life, you are undoubtedly the most talented. If we had the same amount of time to cultivate, I would certainly be inferior to you."

"Even now, if I wanted to take you down, it certainly wouldn't be possible in a short time, but..."

As the Daluo Ghost Emperor spoke, a somber Netherworld Seal slowly emitted a Daoist aura from within his ghostly body, filling it completely.

At this moment.

In the Unseen, the power of the entire Netherworld Underworld converged on the Daluo Ghost Emperor, and an unparalleled force blessed him.

At this moment, the ghostly body of the Daluo Ghost Emperor, which appeared insignificant compared to Yang Jian's Dharma form, suddenly grew taller.

It is not a simple change in physical form, but an elevation in status and authority.

At this moment, the Daluo Ghost Emperor is the Underworld, representing the power of the Netherworld Underworld.

"But I am the Ghost Emperor of the Underworld, wielding the power of the Underworld. With the great power of the Underworld empowering me, you are no match for me."

The voice of the Underworld Ghost Emperor was deep and muffled, yet it seemed to contain boundless majesty.

In the vast Underworld, countless ghosts and monsters who heard this voice felt an immense pressure bearing down on them.

Some with weak minds and spirits, regardless of their cultivation level, simply fell to the ground.

An endless pressure spread towards Yang Jian, enveloping him completely.

This was not a simple act of oppression, but rather the Ghost Emperor of the Underworld using his authority to control the power of the Underworld suppress Yang Jian.

At this moment, even Yang Jian felt a heavy pressure that seemed to arise out of nowhere.

The pressure was so intense that Yang Jian could hardly breathe, and he almost couldn't maintain his Divine Ability form, the Dharma Body of Heaven and Earth Manifestation.

Yang Jian gripped the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Spear with both hands to support his massive body, his whole body trembling slightly as Yang Jian struggled to break free from the pressure.

But... it's impossible.

At this moment, the Ghost Emperor of the Underworld summoned the great power of the Underworld his authority, and... at this moment, the power of the Underworld bestowed upon the Ghost Emperor was extremely strong.

Under normal circumstances, the numerous ghost emperors and kings in the Underworld would never allow this one ghost emperor to so easily wield such powerful Underworld authority.

But at this moment, even a Ghost Emperor who is at odds with this Ghost Emperor would certainly not be able to intervene.

So...

Yang Jian is now facing the power and authority that all the Ghost Emperors of the Underworld can wield.

The pressure was so intense that even a Daluo like him could not withstand it.
