Xia Tianqiong didn't say anything more, but just glared at him, and the wolf king suddenly exploded on the spot, dying instantly.

Then he was resurrected, but his memories had been erased.

Xia Tianqiong, acting as a superior, forced the Wolf King to sign the Human Lord Contract, then sent him to handle the affairs of the Floating City, releasing all his subordinates.

This is the power of the strongest demon god.

Before the peak-level Demon King, whether he lived or died, a single glance was enough.

At this moment, the entire audience erupted in an uproar.

They heard the conversation and saw the wolf king being killed and then resurrected.

It can now be confirmed that the final winner is Xia Tianqiong.

That's incredible!

Cheers were heard throughout the streets and alleys of the capital, and some people even set off firecrackers to celebrate.

In their view, Xia Tianqiong's victory gave humanity hope; at least they wouldn't be taken hostage and killed at will.

...

In the sky, Xia Tianqiong casually opened the passage to the Daughter Kingdom, took out the clay figures and cards, and prepared to revive the Ghost Bride.

At that moment, another figure flew in.

Turning around, I saw it was Leng Tianpeng.

Yet, there was a faint aura of a strange god within him, and it felt somewhat familiar.

Upon careful perception, I discovered it was the Dream God.

Xia Tianqiong frowned for a moment, then immediately relaxed and said with a smile, "Did you come down from the Upper Realm specifically to supervise me in destroying Jun Shisan?"

Hypnos, the god of dreams, possessed Leng Tianpeng and carefully examined Xia Tianqiong. "To be able to see through my hiding place at a glance, you truly deserve to be the strongest god of illusion."

"Thank you for the compliment."

"Have you comprehended the second half of the True Spirit Dao Scripture that I gave you?"

Xia Tianqiong's eyes changed slightly, and then he answered without hesitation: "Of course, thanks to that half of the true scripture, my true spirit has grown stronger, otherwise I would not have been able to defeat Jun Shisan. However... there seems to be a problem."

He deliberately dragged out the second half of his sentence, looking completely puzzled.

Hypnos immediately asked, "What's the problem?"

Xia Tianqiong thought for a moment, seemingly a little uncertain, "My true spirit is getting stronger and stronger, but it seems a bit unstable, as if it might crack at any moment."

Hypnos remained calm, but his tone was serious. "That's a delusion from your cultivation. You won't have that delusion as long as you continue to comprehend it."

"Oh, I see."

Xia Tianqiong nodded, looking like she had learned something, and then asked, "After becoming a Ghost God, can I stay in the lower realm forever?"

The reason for this question was that he felt a strange force pulling at his body.

It seems they want to pull him to the upper realm.

Hypnos laughed and said, "The demon god cannot stay in the lower realm for long. The rules of heaven and earth do not allow it. The longer you stay, the stronger the repulsive force will be, and you will eventually enter the upper realm. Once you enter the upper realm, you will never be able to return to the lower realm."

"Haven't you come to the lower realm?"

"I am but a wisp of consciousness, temporarily brought to the lower realm, and I too cannot stay long. If you wish to return, you can only do the same as me."

"If only a wisp of consciousness returns, how much strength can it still exert?"

"Your strength has nothing to do with you, but with the target you possess. If I could bring down the power of the Ghost God, I would have destroyed Jun Shisan long ago, instead of waiting until now. Alright, I should return to the Upper Realm."

Hypnos seemed a little impatient and unwilling to say more.

Xia Tianqiong quickly called out, "Wait a minute, one last question, what's above the God of Ghosts?"

Hypnos hesitated for a moment, but still answered the question.

"Above the God of Deception are the Venerables, the true rulers. I really should leave, otherwise that old bastard will keep bothering me."

After saying this, his body suddenly trembled slightly, and the aura of the eerie god within him vanished instantly.

Hypnos is gone, and Leng Tianpeng regains control of his body.

He remained fully conscious, and he knew everything Hypnos saw, heard, and said.

"Congratulations on your ascension to the God of Ghosts! The Leng family and the Void Ghost Clan are willing to follow you forever!"

After regaining control of his body, Leng Tianpeng immediately bowed slightly to show respect and submission.

"You go back to the floating city first, I'll come find you later."

Xia Tianqiong didn't look at Leng Tianpeng, but instead looked at another figure flying up below.

That was Elder Huo, who also exuded an aura of eeriness.

He was only half-convinced by what the Dream God said.

He will absolutely not study the latter half of the True Spirit Dao Scripture, and intends to erase or seal all related content from his memory.

He worried that keeping it in his memory would also have a negative impact.

The conversation just now seemed ordinary, but there was a big problem with it.

When he first met the Dream God, the other party made it very clear that he had to kill Jun Shisan, and that if he became Jun Shisan, he would not let him go.

But now that he has devoured Jun Shisan and possesses everything Jun Shisan has, the other party has not shown any hostility towards him. Instead, he has advised him to comprehend the second half of the true scripture.

This proves once again that there is something wrong with the scriptures.

However, this matter could be used to make a fuss.

Just as he was pondering this, Old Master Huo flew right in front of him.

"Congratulations, congratulations! You've become the strongest Ghost God upon entering the Ghost God realm, even stronger than me."

Old Huo's face was beaming with joy, his smile genuine, like an old man from next door coming over for a visit.

Xia Tianqiong smiled back, "You are too modest. I have only just been promoted and there are still many things I don't understand that I need to ask you for advice."

"Anything you don't understand, feel free to ask me. I'm your guide, so I have an obligation to answer your questions."

Old Master Huo was very generous, and Xia Tianqiong didn't stand on ceremony either.

He asked the same questions he had just asked the Dream God, and also inquired about other matters concerning the upper realms.

Comparing the two, it can be confirmed that the Dream God did not lie, but he did not ask about the True Spirit Scripture.
