"Fengdu?"

Shen Yuan's thoughts kept running through his mind, and he subconsciously turned his gaze to the Fengdu City in front of him.

Fengdu City was opened up by the Lord of Mount Tai with his great supernatural powers. It is also the core of the underworld, carrying the cycle of life and death of the entire Xuanhuang Realm.

Since the establishment of Fengdu City, it has been jointly governed by the Ten Yin Marshals.

However, although it is said that the Ten Yin Marshals are in charge, in fact, they are only using the authority left by the Lord of Mount Tai to exert influence on the entire Fengdu City, and they do not truly control this city of the underworld.

From ancient times to the present, there has been no legend about the owner of Fengdu City.

Even the founder of Fengdu City, Lord Taishan, was not the true lord of Fengdu City.

But now, the seal in Shen Yuan's hand had the word Fengdu written on it, which really puzzled Shen Yuan.

And what is carved on the top of the Fengdu Seal is not the usual dragons, mountains and other strange images, but an extremely exquisite vast land, as if the entire world was shrunk countless times and engraved on it.

Shen Yuan kept looking at the seal, and the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became:

"This Fengdu seal is nine inches long, wide and five inches high. It is engraved with the mark of the origin of the Shinto. Its specifications are even much higher than the Qin Guangwang seal. It is a Shinto imperial seal!"

Shen Yuan was shocked and immediately realized that the problem was not simple at all.

Although Fengdu symbolizes the entire underworld of Xuanhuang Realm, its size is not enough to support a Shinto emperor.

Even with the current size of Fengdu, it cannot even support the position of King Yama. The existence of this Fengdu Imperial Seal is completely abnormal.

Shen Yuan frowned tightly, and as he used his star-number magic power to deduce, starlight kept flashing in his eyes.

“The Shinto Imperial Seal cannot be made privately; it is a symbol of the manifestation of the origin of Shinto.

And because the position of the Shinto Emperor can already interfere with the origin of Shinto, the birth of any Shinto Emperor will cause the origin of Shinto to vibrate, thus letting all living beings in heaven and earth know that the Emperor has come to the world.

There is absolutely no way there could be a Shinto emperor that no one could know about, unless..."

Shen Yuan's pupils trembled suddenly, and he slowly said the possibility:

"Unless someone directly used the origin of Shinto as the foundation to forge this imperial seal!"

Ordinary Shinto emperors can only interfere with part of the Shinto origin. It is impossible for them to privately create an imperial seal with the Shinto origin.

The only one who can truly do this is the Lord of the Origin of Shinto who holds the magical power to drive away gods.

Throughout the ages, there have been two masters of the magical power to exorcise gods. One was the fallen Emperor Donghua, and the other was Shen Yuan himself.

This Fengdu Emperor Seal came from thousands of years ago. Combined with the word "Shen" on the broken talisman paper in the wooden box, Shen Yuan already had the answer in his mind.

“This Fengdu Emperor Seal was secretly forged by me ten thousand years ago, and passed down to future generations together with the Taishan Palace Lord’s Edict with the help of the Humane Dynasty.

I stepped into Fengdu City, faced the Ten Kings of Hell, and even had the Imperial Astronomical Observatory deliver the Fengdu Imperial Seal to me. All of this was within my calculations!"

At this moment, stars bloomed in Shen Yuan's eyes.

In this dark world shrouded in dark clouds, the light of the stars in the sky forcefully broke through the dark clouds above the sky and descended upon the earth of the dark world.

Countless stars intertwined in Shen Yuan's eyes, and the cause and effect, and destiny spanning thousands of years continued to echo each other, allowing the star number supernatural power that was originally at the peak of the second realm to be deduced to a higher level.

Outside the imperial chariot, King Qin Guang raised his head and looked at the projection of the stars in the sky that appeared in the underworld, a look of surprise and doubt flashed in his eyes.

"The light of the stars in the sky? Could it be that the emperor in the imperial chariot is a certain emperor of the Dou tribe?"

King Qin Guang’s guess makes sense.

Although the Nine Star Gods of the Dou Department are only star gods in name, the position of the Nine Stars involves several emperors. Emperor Donghua is also the Sun Star God, sitting in the Sun Palace and commanding all the immortals and gods.

Such as the Water Star God and the Fire Star God, they are also the externalized incarnations of the Water God and the Fire God.

There are only a dozen or so emperors in the upper realm, and each of them is a great figure famous throughout the heavens. Among them, the Dou Department has the most connections with the emperors.

Combined with the strange phenomena of the stars in the sky, the probability that this unknown emperor came from the Dou Department is indeed the highest.

With this thought in mind, King Qin Guang stared at the stars in the sky, trying to find the source of the strange star phenomenon based on the trajectory of the stars in the sky, so as to determine the identity of this emperor.

The next moment, the light of the stars that had originally broken through the blockade of the Yin World seemed to condense into large stars that had become substantial. The appearance of the stars in the sky shook the entire Luoshan County, which had not yet been completely dragged into the Yin World.

King Qin Guang was shocked and was about to take action, but at this moment the stars in the sky disappeared in an instant.

In the imperial chariot, the starlight in Shen Yuan's eyes disappeared, but countless starlight intertwined in the depths of his pupils, deducing the trajectory of astrology and destiny at all times.

Under the cause and effect echo of ten thousand years ago, Shen Yuan's star number magical power finally broke through the shackles and became the first earthly magical power in his hands to enter the third realm.

As the Star Number Divine Ability successfully broke through the realm, all the causes and effects in Shen Yuan's eyes seemed to become clear, and all the confusions in his mind before were answered.

A few minutes ago, Shen Yuan was facing King Qin Guang and was still considering whether to overturn the table and flood the underworld.

And just a few minutes later, Shen Yuan had deduced several ways to solve the current dilemma.

His right hand gently stroked the Fengdu Imperial Seal in his hand, and the supernatural power to exorcise gods that had reached the peak of the realm in his body responded to the imperial seal in his hand.

Although it was the first time that Shen Yuan touched the imperial seal, he did not feel any awkwardness when he responded to the imperial seal with his magical power to drive gods. Instead, he felt an indescribable sense of intimacy.

The divine origin of the power to exorcise gods gradually entered the Fengdu Imperial Seal, filling the incomplete origin of the imperial seal. The seemingly ordinary seal began to show a great power that far exceeded the secular boundaries.

The invisible fluctuations within the Emperor's Seal continued to spread in all directions until they enveloped the entire Fengdu City. He could even feel the rhythm of this ancient underworld city before him.

His divine consciousness seemed to be connected with the countless city gods and ghosts in Fengdu City. With just one thought, he could borrow the power of these countless ghosts and gods in the underworld.

Holding the Fengdu Emperor's Seal in his left hand, and in response to his magical power to exorcise gods, a majestic aura as vast as the ocean emanated from Shen Yuan's body.

Although extremely immature and weak, Shen Yuan's aura already possesses a hint of the essence of an emperor while being in the city of Fengdu.

A faint pressure spread to the outside world. Shen Yuan finally said the first sentence since the arrival of the Ten Kings of Hell.

“Kneel down!”

The majestic voice echoed throughout the entire Fengdu City.

King Qin Guang was shocked, and then anger appeared on his face.

In his opinion, the person in front of him was just one of the incarnations of a certain Doubu Emperor, and he was not even in his prime.

As the leader of the Ten Kings of Hell, he has the home advantage. In terms of status, he is naturally weaker, but in terms of strength, he is superior to the opponent.

In this situation, he was able to be respectful to the other party in his words because of his Shinto rank. What qualifications did the other party have to make him kneel down?

The anger just appeared and then extinguished in an instant. King Qin Guang sneered and said:

"Kneel down? Does this emperor think that he is still alive ten thousand years ago?"

However, as soon as King Qin Guang finished speaking, changes suddenly occurred in the entire Fengdu City. In the temples where the city gods and ghosts were sleeping in Fengdu City, the ancient ghosts and gods began to whisper unconsciously in their sleep.

“Kneel down!”

“Kneel down!”

They followed their instincts and recited Shen Yuan's orders. Even in their sleep, they were unable to stop the will from Fengdu.

Although the lifespans of these city gods and ghosts are not very long, there are many ghost kings and great ghost kings among them who have surpassed the limits of the present world.

Even among the various city gods, there are state city god temples from thousands of years ago that are still located in Daxia. The incense that has never been cut off maintains their powerful realm comparable to that of Lianxu Zhenjun.

The sleeping City Gods are not suppressed by the rules of heaven and earth, and the power generated by their unconscious chanting has reached the level of Lianxu Zhenjun.

The sounds of chanting intertwined with the Shinto roots of ghosts and gods, weaving into a huge ancient bronze bell in the void.

The sound of the bells was like the command of billions of ghosts and gods returning to Fengdu City.

At this moment, the five Yamas present could all hear the chanting from billions of ghosts and gods.

“Plop!”

The last of the Ten Kings of Hell, the King of Wheels, could no longer bear the sound of the chanting of billions of ghosts and gods, and fell to his knees.

Veins bulged on his ferocious face and beads of sweat the size of beans slowly slid down his forehead.

If the status of Lord Yama had not been suppressed by the aura of Lord Taishan, he could naturally rely on his high status to ignore the chanting of billions of ghosts and gods.

But the fact is, there is no if!

The peak state of Return to Void of Yin Shuai's body made him unable to ignore the chanting of billions of ghosts and gods, and the suppression of his status also made it impossible for him to resist the will of Fengdu. He could only obey Shen Yuan's rebuke.

Then, King Pingdeng, King Metropolis, and King Biancheng, the three Yamas, also knelt down under the will of Fengdu.

Among the five Yamas, only King Qin Guang, the head of Yama, was left.

At this moment, King Qin Guang was also under unprecedented pressure. He held up the phantom of the sacred Mount Tai with one hand and suppressed the four Yin Marshals with the other.

Although he still had some strength left, he could only hold on in the face of the chanting of billions of ghosts and gods.

But as the four Yamas knelt on the ground, the pressure he was under reached its limit.

The right hand that was holding up the Shinto Taishan was shaking constantly. The guidance of the chanting that kept echoing back to the Buddha's name was subtly affecting his will, and his legs were also shaking constantly at this moment.

In the imperial chariot, Shen Yuan looked at King Qin Guang who was struggling with great interest, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

You know, he linked up with the Fengdu Emperor Seal and issued a rebuke order with the help of hundreds of millions of ghosts and gods chanting. Although it seemed simple, it was a real killing move.

Shen Yuan is in charge of the origin of the incense and fire Shintoism, and King Qin Guang is far lower than him in Shinto rank. In addition, Shen Yuan has the home advantage with the Fengdu Emperor Seal, and he uses this to order the other party to kneel down. This seemingly simple sentence actually contains the double suppression of Shinto rank and Fengdu will.

The hierarchy of Shinto rank forced King Qin Guang to accept the order to "kneel down", while the home advantage of Fengdu's will affected the body of the Sun-wandering God that he occupied.

But even in the face of the double suppression at the divine and physical levels, King Qin Guang was still able to hold on. This was enough to make Shen Yuan treat King Qin Guang with caution.

Suddenly, a starlight flashed in Shen Yuan's eyes, and then he whispered with sudden enlightenment:

"So that's how it is. It's his own cultivation in the Netherworld Ghost Path!"

As the chief of the Ten Kings of Hell, King Qin Guang naturally possesses more than just the position of the King of Hell.

In fact, apart from the gods and gods of the lower realms who completely rely on the Shinto as their foundation, many powerful people in the Shinto field who focus their vision on the sentient beings of all realms, like King Qin Guang, will not rely entirely on the Shinto rank.

Because everyone knows that the origin of Shintoism is in the hands of Heaven. As long as Heaven is willing, it can even demote a Shinto emperor.

None of the strong men are willing to pin their cultivation accumulated over countless years on the will of heaven, so in addition to the divine way, they must also practice other ways.

For the powerful Shintoists in the underworld, the second path is naturally the ghost path.

Although the cultivation level of the ghost way is far inferior to that of the Shinto way, it can produce greater effects when facing the suppression of the Shinto way. At present, King Qin Guang is relying on the cultivation level of the ghost way to hold on.

He gritted his teeth and looked towards the imperial chariot with a look filled with resentment.

King Qin Guang knew very well that the man in the imperial chariot was suppressing him with his divine rank, and his actual strength might not be comparable to his, so he was unwilling to kneel down.

The Shinto aura around him gradually faded, but was replaced by ghostly aura rising into the sky. The dark ghost den spread out in all directions with King Qin Guang as the center, resisting the chanting from billions of ghosts and gods.

Finally, King Qin Guang bent his body a little, and feeling more and more pressured, he finally made a decision in his heart.

The hand that suppressed the four Yin Marshals slowly loosened, and a faint light flashed in King Qin Guang's hand. He stretched out his hand to the void, and a token that was shining with a dark yellow color and as heavy as the earth appeared in his hand.

Holding the dark yellow token high, King Qin Guang said loudly:

"This is the imperial decree bestowed by the Earth God after following the example of Heaven."

"The affairs of the underworld should be decided by the underworld, and outsiders are not allowed to interfere!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Hou Tu's order turned into a stream of light that enveloped the world. King Qin Guang's words were engraved in the world like rules.

Seeing Hou Tu's imperial order disappear, his heart was bleeding as he was unmoved even though the seal of King Qin Guang was taken away.

This Hou Tu Imperial Order was given by the great god Hou Tu when the underworld was first established. He has always regarded it as his most important trump card and his greatest reliance for daring to invade the Xuanhuang Realm.

Hou Tu is the oldest and most noble innate deity in the underworld. In ancient times, he was known as one of the Six Imperial Gods along with the Four Imperial Gods in Heaven.

If the great goddess Hou Tu had not chosen to stay in the underworld and refuse the command of heaven, the position of the Six Emperors would probably have remained to this day.

As Hou Tu's imperial decree rewrote the rules, Shen Yuan could clearly sense that the rules of heaven and earth were reviving and expelling him from the city of Fengdu.

Yu's orders are supreme, and even the origin of incense and Shinto cannot refuse them.

"Is this the power of Yu?"

But the scene before him did not make Shen Yuan feel worried at all.

He just spoke softly:

"If we don't allow outsiders to interfere in the affairs of the underworld, then isn't it enough for us to just become one of our own?"

Holding the Fengdu Emperor's Seal in his hand, the seed of divine power to exorcise gods in Shen Yuan's body burst into flames, and all the origins of gods returned to himself.

Sitting upright on the throne of Mount Tai, the supernatural power of driving gods that was at the peak of the first level vaguely stepped into the second level and moved towards a higher level.

His will merged into the world, and Shen Yuan opened his lips and engraved each word into the origin of the incense and fire:

"I hold the origin of the incense and fire, and the seal of the Emperor of Fengdu.

I shall be the Great Emperor of Fengdu!"
