"boom!"

Suddenly, the sky shattered, and countless blood mists poured down, dyeing the world a deep crimson, as if blood were flowing.

"Is the Underworld Emperor still alive?"

"It's just wreckage! He couldn't possibly still be alive!"

As the Underworld Emperor slowly approached, the Ghost Emperors were all terrified, a chilling feeling spreading through their hearts, their bodies stiffening.

The Underworld Emperor, an invincible ruler who dominated the world for tens of thousands of years, eventually vanished into the long river of history, leaving behind many legends.

However, it is a well-known fact that the Underworld Emperor died and vanished in the great war tens of thousands of years ago.

But no one expected to see him again in this way, and what was even more surprising was that he seemed to be alive.

It is known that the legendary Underworld Emperor was extremely cold-blooded and bloodthirsty. In pursuit of power, he sacrificed the world and even killed his closest relatives with his own hands.

"Snap!"

Countless cracks appeared on the surface of the Underworld Emperor City, spreading like a spider web, making the entire city seem like it could collapse at any moment.

"boom!"

A terrifying aura wafted over, as if an ancient, colossal beast had awakened. Its boundless majesty made people tremble and couldn't help but worship.

The Heaven and Earth Spirit Furnace in Xu Xiwang's hand seemed to be trying to break free from Xu Xiwang's restraints and escape towards the outside world, but it was forcibly suppressed by Xu Xiwang.

"Oh no, we need to be ready to escape at any moment!"

Xu Tianming looked at Xu Yifeng and Xu Xiwang and said in a deep voice, "If the Underworld Emperor is really still alive, then it means that the outside world is already in chaos."

He was very anxious because the scene was so bizarre that even he felt a sense of fear.

The black dragon roared, opening its mouth to inhale chaotic energy, as if it could obliterate everything.

"Traversing the long river of history, I traced back to the past, reversed time, defied reincarnation, and reversed fate."

The Underworld Emperor spoke softly, his eyes shining brightly.

This was an incredibly astonishing aura. He looked down at the endless ghostly figures below, a chilling glint in his eyes.

He reached out and summoned hundreds of thick chains, each one crystal clear, as if cast from divine metal, radiating terrifying energy that pierced through the void.

Almost instantly, these chains pierced through the bodies of thousands of ghosts, absorbed their essence, and transformed into specks of light that merged into the Underworld City, making it even more terrifying.

Ah~~~

A horrifying, mournful wail echoed through the sky, chilling everyone to the bone. Ghosts continued to fall, their essence transforming into specks of light that converged into the Underworld City.

"Bang!"

The Underworld City trembled slightly as the black dragon swung its tail, sweeping across the eight wastelands and six directions, shattering hundreds of chains and causing the entire Underworld City to shake.

The Underworld Emperor approached slowly with his hands behind his back, his gaze cold as he looked down upon the vast multitude of beings, and said indifferently, "I have returned in my broken body. Through countless ages, I have finally returned."

"I hate it! I hate heaven and earth, I hate all living beings, I hate this world!"

"Though the world has changed, I have finally returned."

The Underworld Emperor's voice was low and hoarse, filled with sorrow, as if he had experienced too many years, the vicissitudes of time, and the passage of countless ages, and his mind was already at peace, devoid of any emotion.

It is an indescribable state, transcending the mundane world, as if one does not belong to the human realm.

His voice was deep and resonant, as if it came from the depths of hell, carrying a strong sense of resentment that sent chills down one's spine.

At this moment, in the Land of Broken Souls, countless ghostly figures trembled as if they had encountered their natural enemy.

The Underworld Emperor raised his head and looked up at the sky, as if sighing or reminiscing about the past, and murmured, "This great calamity has finally come!"

"Thump!"

Suddenly, a giant hand wreathed in divine light tore through the clouds, carrying unparalleled power as it crashed down upon the Underworld Emperor's City.

That method was too domineering, containing unparalleled laws and surging with supreme Dao traces, causing the entire area to collapse and a deep pit to appear.

"Pfft!"

In the City of the Underworld Emperor, countless ghostly figures exploded and turned into dust, resulting in numerous deaths and injuries.

"roar!"

The black dragon roared, its sound waves raging like a vast ocean. It soared into the air to meet the sky-covering hand.

When the two collided, the void collapsed, chaos surged, and a violent shockwave rushed down, engulfing everything. Whether ordinary ghosts or ghost generals, they were all blown apart, their forms and spirits annihilated.

This attack was incredibly fierce; even the Underworld City couldn't withstand it, cracking open like shattered porcelain.

Black scales fell away, the black dragon was wounded, pierced by a finger, almost bursting apart, revealing a piece of pitch-black claw, dripping dark blood.

The moment the Underworld Emperor collided with that giant hand, his body suddenly froze. He saw the person clearly, and a bitter smile appeared on his lips.

It was a hazy figure, indistinct and blurry, yet it could not conceal its unparalleled heroic bearing.

"You are still alive after all."

The Underworld Emperor's voice was icy.

"You're still alive, how can I die?"

The hazy figure responded, simultaneously pressing down with a finger like a mountain, piercing through the Underworld Emperor's head.

The Underworld Emperor's eyes were cold, and nine black vortexes appeared behind him, like the deepest abyss, devouring everything and engulfing the hazy figure inside.

In just a moment, the hazy figure disappeared, and the Underworld Emperor stepped into the void. All the surrounding gloom vanished, leaving only the black dragon coiled up.

The Hades Emperor's decaying body began to radiate vitality. His appearance slowly regained its youthfulness, the wrinkles between his brows became less and less, and he exuded a supreme and majestic aura, like an immortal descending to earth.

"The feeling of freedom is wonderful."

After saying this, the Underworld Emperor grabbed a ghost, crushed it, took a deep breath, and swallowed the entire yin-yang vortex that the ghost had transformed into.

"Are you the Underworld Emperor?"

The Underworld Emperor and others emerged from the ghostly mist, their eyes filled with dread. The Underworld Emperor was too terrifying; his attack just now had shocked them.

Keep in mind that the Underworld Emperor has only just been revived; what about when he was at his peak?

"So what if it is, and so what if it isn't?"

The Underworld Emperor replied, his gaze calm and devoid of any emotion, as if nothing could stir a ripple in his heart.

"Give me my Heaven and Earth Spirit Furnace."

The Underworld Emperor looked at Xu Xiwang. He stretched out his withered and shriveled right hand, with a wisp of purple flame dancing at his fingertips, extremely dazzling, like a star burning.

The flames were extremely hot and pungent, as if they could burn the heavens, and even from a great distance they were suffocating.

"On what grounds?"
