Chapter 326: The Underworld, the Reincarnation Method of the Underworld God
The Zhong family has been rooted here for more than five thousand years.
Five thousand years ago, the ancestor of the Zhong family brought a group of clansmen and migrated here from the distant Wangyue Island and established the Zhong family.
At that time, there was not even any Youshan City. It was only after the Zhong family lived here for more than a thousand years that Youshan City slowly appeared.
The ancestral temple of the Zhong family was built in the belly of the mountain behind the Zhong family. Not only were the ancestors of the Zhong family enshrined there, but all the deceased members of the family were also buried here.
Warriors practice hard, and their bodies become strong and their blood is vigorous. Even a martial arts master can remain alive for thousands of years without decaying.
Therefore, in the five major domains, when people from powerful forces die, they will not be buried in a random place, because the corpse can easily become food for demons or magic warriors, and if it is not taken care of, it may breed evil spirits over time.
Those who were able would build their own ancestral temples, bury their dead members in one place, and assign someone to guard the bodies every day to ensure that nothing happened.
At this moment, inside the Zhong family ancestral temple, in the huge mountain belly, a group of Zhong family descendants were busy throwing corpses into the underworld one by one.
This underworld is like a terrifying giant beast. Once a corpse is thrown into it, it will soon be swallowed up and disappear.
In the very center of the underworld, there is a giant pitch-black coffin engraved with mysterious patterns, emitting a faint black light.
Four huge chains grew on the four corners of the coffin, with light flowing on them, as if something in the underworld was being conducted into the coffin through the chains.
"Hurry up, it's getting dark. After we finish our work, we still have to find food for the ancestor," Zhong Jianan shouted, "The great cause that my Zhong family has been planning for thousands of years is about to be completed. From now on, my Zhong family will be the Saint Sect, and you will all be heroes."
He looked at the dark coffin with an excited look.
As the patriarch of the Zhong family, he knew what was in the coffin. It was the ancestor who led the Zhong family to migrate here.
Once the ancestor completes his reincarnation, the Zhong family will become an extremely glorious saint family. Relying on this underworld that has been nurtured for thousands of years, he may have the hope of becoming a martial saint in the future.
"Master, we have already captured tens of thousands of people. Should we wait for a while and not attract the attention of the Demon Hunter Organization?" A disciple of the Zhong family said.
The people who disappeared in Youshan City before were the disciples of his Zhong family who were captured to cultivate this underworld. Although they destroyed Lijiazhuang and intimidated the nosy people in Youshan City, they were afraid that the news would reach the ears of the Demon Hunter Organization.
"Don't be afraid. The ancestor will be able to complete his reincarnation in one or two days. When the time comes, the ancestor will lead us to move to another place. No one will know that this is what we did.
Our ancestors had already chosen this remote and uninhabited place as the location, but they insisted on building a city here. They deserved to die! "
…
"I sense an evil aura. I'm afraid there's something evil going on here!"
Fenghua looked at the mountain where the Zhong family mansion was located with a solemn expression. Judging from the scene before him, if there was any evil spirit here, it would have already become a big deal.
It was not dark yet, but the Zhong family mansion in the distance was already silent, with no one moving around.
"No wonder the Zhong family keeps a low profile. This evil spirit might have been raised by them!"
When they were asking around in the restaurant, those people talked about some things about the Zhong family. Although the Zhong family was one of the three strongest forces in Youshan City, the disciples of the family were very low-key, rarely showed up in public, and rarely had conflicts with others.
At this moment, it seems that the Zhong family’s problems have probably existed for more than a day or two, and they have only recently erupted because they could no longer be suppressed, or it can be said that they have reached a critical moment and there is no need to conceal them.
"What do they do by raising evil spirits?" Wei Fan wondered.
This kind of thing is even more harmful than demons. No matter whether it is a human or a demon, if they encounter evil spirits, they will be beaten to death immediately.
Therefore, although the five major domains are large, evil spirits rarely cause trouble.
However, Fenghua and Zhihua obviously could not answer Wei Fan's question.
The three men approached, but there was no one in the Zhong family's yard. Of course, this was not their target. Their target was the place where the huge black smoke was coming from.
After searching for a while, the three found a passage leading into the mountain behind the Zhong family compound, but the passage was blocked by a thick iron gate.
There is a plaque hanging above the iron gate, with the words "Zhong Family Ancestral Hall" written in large and flamboyant characters!
"It seems that the corpse in the ancestral temple has become an evil spirit. What should we do?" Zhihua looked at Wei Fan.
Although Wei Fan has the weakest cultivation among the three, she and Feng Hua now secretly regard Wei Fan as the leader.
“No matter if the incident is related to this place or not, since the evil spirit has appeared, we can’t just ignore it. Let’s just go in!”
Wei Fan stepped forward and punched the iron gate.
Bang! The thick iron door exploded on the spot, and the force rolled up the fragments and shot them into the inside. The whole mountain shook, smoke and dust rose up, and countless boulders rolled down.
The next moment, screams were heard from the passage, and an even thicker aura of death surged out from it.
"Be careful, the things here might be shocking!"
A light shone on Fenghua's body. She, who had the strongest cultivation, was the first to transform into a stream of light and fly into the passage. Wei Fan and Zhihua followed closely behind.
The next moment, the true appearance of the Zhong family ancestral hall appeared in their eyes.
But this is not an ancestral temple at all. There are no tablets, ancestral halls, coffins, or anything. It is just a huge space carved out of the mountain.
In a pool that almost covers the entire space, it is filled with mud that emits an evil smell, and in the middle is a huge coffin.
There was a pile of corpses in the open space next to the pool.
Even after the three of them broke in, people kept throwing bodies into the pool.
"You beasts actually practiced the reincarnation technique of the God of the Underworld and created the underworld for reincarnation." Fenghua's eyes gleamed coldly as he stared at the huge coffin and the underworld.
Zhihua took a breath. If this place was a created underworld, it would be more than just a mass grave.
"Since you know the method of reincarnation of Hades, I cannot let you go!"
Zhong Jianan rushed out from nowhere and stretched out his big hand to slap Wei Fan and the other two.
The knowledge of creating the underworld and practicing the method of reincarnation of the underworld god must not be leaked, otherwise the entire Zhong family will be destroyed and thousands of years of hard work will be ruined.
"It's only the fifth level of Martial King cultivation!"
Wei Fan raised his head calmly and looked at Zhong Jianan. He looked middle-aged, and considering King Wu’s lifespan, he must be over 500 years old.
At the age of five hundred, he is still at the fifth level of Martial King, so his aptitude can be said to be very poor.
Even monsters with powerful bloodlines like the Dragon-Horned Deer were killed by him. A Martial King like Zhong Jianan could be killed with just a flip of his hand.
Boom! Wei Fan raised his hand and slapped it, causing ripples in the void. Even though there was a formation here, the entire cave was shaking.
This was the result of him restraining his strength, otherwise the entire mountain would probably have collapsed.
"Don't kill him!" Feng Hua shouted, "I still need to ask him some questions!"
Upon hearing this, Wei Fan retracted 30% of his strength, and changed his patting to pressing, instantly pinning Zhong Jianan to the ground.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"Who are you?"
Zhong Jianan's face was filled with horror. He was just a young man with the aura of the fourth level of Martial King, but he was subdued by just one palm.
If the other woman hadn't spoken quickly, that palm strike would have blown her to pieces on the spot.
An invisible force pressed down on my body like a mountain, and my muscles and bones felt excruciating pain from the heavy burden.
Zhong Jianan wanted to stand up, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't do it.
"If you move again, I'll kill you!"
Wei Fan snorted coldly and exerted a little force on his hands, and a sound of bones breaking came from Zhong Jianan's body.
"You're not going to stop yet?"
Fenghua saw that those people were still throwing corpses into the underworld, and immediately his power swept out.
Boom! After a loud bang, all the people of the Zhong family, whether they were martial masters or martial masters in the divine realm, were knocked to the ground by the terrifying force, with their bones and tendons broken.
In an instant, there was a scream in the Zhong family ancestral hall. Some people who were unlucky were directly killed by Fenghua's power.
"Martial King Eighth Level!"
Zhong Jianan's pupils couldn't help but shrink: "This matter has finally alarmed the outside world!"
The strongest person in Youshan City is the city lord, but he is only at the seventh level of Martial King. The appearance of three such young Martial Kings makes it clear that they are from outside.
"Just a few days, just a few days, God bless our Zhong family!" He couldn't help but shout.
As long as we wait a few more days, the ancestor will be able to reincarnate successfully.
By then, the Zhong family will move away from Beidingzhou to other places, and no one will know that they were the ones who did what happened here.
"Tell me, who built this place, and how long has it been there?"
Fenghua lifted Zhong Jianan up from the ground, with a cold light in his eyes.
To create a piece of underworld land to practice the reincarnation method of the God of the Underworld, at least hundreds of thousands of people are needed to create such a piece of underworld land.
In other words, these beasts before our eyes have killed more than 100,000 people over countless years.
“It was made by my Zhong family, and we’ve been making it since five thousand years ago. Haha… You’ve disturbed our ancestor’s reincarnation, so get ready to die.
Originally, only a few thousand more people would have died, but now, everyone in Youshan City will be buried with you."
Zhong Jianan gave a miserable smile.
He failed, but the person who ruined the Zhong family's good deeds would not survive.
Not only will these people die, but Youshan City will also be killed by the ancestor.
"It was made five thousand years ago..."
Zhihua's expression changed: "Let's go, notify the experts to come, this matter is no longer something we can handle."
The first rule of a demon hunter is to save his own life.
Even if they retreated, they would leave without hesitation even though hundreds of thousands of people in Youshan City might die.
Because if they didn't leave, staying would only result in the deaths of three more people. Something that had been sleeping in the underworld for thousands of years was not something they could contend with.
"It doesn't matter, you forgot that we still have the Holy Soldiers!"
Fenghua was very calm, because she knew Wei Fan still had a trump card, and unless it was absolutely necessary, hundreds of thousands of people had to be rescued.
"Give me the holy weapon!" She looked at Wei Fan.
She has the highest level of cultivation, and if she activates the holy weapon, she might be able to destroy the creatures in the underworld who are practicing the method of reincarnation of the underworld god.
Wei Fan took out the dragon-patterned gilded bottle and handed it to Feng Hua, saying, "What is the Dark God Reincarnation Method?"
