In Fengdu City, the four Yamas who were still in a stalemate with Luo Fengliutian all changed their expressions and looked towards the direction of Beimang Mountain in disbelief.
As the Ten Yama Kings who manage the underworld, there is a certain degree of connection between them and they can sense each other's existence.
Just now, the aura of the Wheel King who went to Beimang Mountain to seek a way out of the impasse suddenly disappeared completely in the Xuanhuang Realm.
There is only one possibility for this situation to occur, and that is that the part of the soul sent down by the Wheel King has completely dissipated.
This matter was completely unimaginable for the four Yamas.
The Wheel King cultivated himself to the peak of the Divine Transformation, maintaining the ultimate realm that the world can endure. Almost no one in the world can defeat him.
Even if there are strong people in the world who can exert the strength of a real spirit refiner with a certain Taoist weapon or immortal weapon, they can be easily killed by the means of the Wheel King. The gap from the immortal level cannot be made up by just a few Taoist weapons or immortal weapons.
And going to Beimang Mountain to get the treasure was actually a temporary idea of several Yamas after they suffered successive setbacks. It was almost impossible for it to be planned in advance by outsiders, and the possibility of the Rotating King's failure was very small.
Even if we take a step back and say that the Wheel King is really surrounded and suppressed in Beimang Mountain, it is almost impossible to kill him.
The Wheel King only needs a thought to penetrate the void and return to the underworld.
As a great celestial being, the Wheel King cut off his own cultivation but part of his soul still retained the essence of the fairyland. There is almost no means under the fairyland that can erase the Wheel King's soul.
All the Yamas firmly believed that there was nothing in the current Xuanhuang Realm that could endanger their lives, but the facts slapped them hard in the face.
A trace of imperceptible fear appeared in the eyes of all the Yamas. Facing the fighting ghosts and gods of the Six Heavens of Luofeng, the Yamas' aura began to gradually decline.
The head of Yama, King Qin Guang, stared at the imperial chariot with an icy gaze. Although there was no evidence, King Qin Guang was already certain in his mind that the person who took action must be the Emperor of Fengdu.
In the current Xuanhuang Realm, only the Great Emperor of Fengdu has the ability to destroy the soul of a Yama.
Looking around at the remaining three Yamas with nervous expressions, King Qin Guang knew in his heart that the turmoil in the underworld caused by the Ten Yama Kings was already a hopeless situation.
If the status quo continues, all the Yamas present will be suppressed by the six gods of Luofeng, whose positions are gradually stabilizing. It is even unknown whether this part of the soul can return to the underworld.
Moreover, after this failure, these ten rebellious underworld generals will certainly be executed by the Emperor of Fengdu, the statues of the Yama Kings in the Fengdu Hall will also be destroyed, and the Ten Kings of Hell will completely lose control of the underworld.
If they want to make a comeback again, it will be extremely difficult.
Even because this invasion of the Xuanhuang Realm was led by him, King Qin Guang, the Yamas returned in defeat. Not only did they offend a Shinto emperor whose background they did not know, but they also damaged the foundation of Shinto by cutting off their own cultivation. As the leader, he would bear full responsibility.
By then, even if he is still the strongest among the Ten Yama Kings, the other Yamas may not continue to buy into his account, and the title of the so-called Chief of the Ten Yama Kings may be in name only.
If these were the only consequences of failure, King Qin Guang could still barely bear it.
But when it comes to the Emperor of Fengdu and the future catastrophe, King Qin Guang has no way out.
During this turmoil in the underworld, King Qin Guang violated the order of hierarchy set by the Heavenly Court and attacked a Shinto emperor, which was a capital crime punishable by being stripped of his divine position and sent to the eighteen levels of hell.
It can be predicted that if the Emperor of Fengdu recovers his cultivation in the future and the upper world opens the heaven to restore order, King Qin Guang will definitely pay a heavy price for today's offense.
Even if things turned out differently, when the great catastrophe came in the future, the Heavenly Court in the upper realm would have no time to take care of other things. The Xuanhuang Realm was the place with only a glimmer of hope, but King Qin Guang had lost the chance to enter it. His fate might not be much better than the punishment from the Heavenly Court.
With this thought, King Qin Guang suddenly realized that although he seemed to be able to easily return to the underworld to protect himself, in fact, he already had no way to retreat.
"In that case, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
A strange light flashed in King Qin Guang's eyes.
In the underworld, in the ruins of the first hall.
A painful roar was heard in the ruins of the first hall, and the tenth hall representing the underworld of the Wheel King collapsed.
The collapse of the magnificent palace once again shook the underworld. Countless ghosts in front of the Tenth Palace who were about to be sent to reincarnation cried out, and a strong resentment rushed straight to the sky.
"How could this be?"
"How could there be a strong person in the current Xuanhuang Realm who can wipe out my soul clone?"
The Wheel King's face was twisted in pain, and he kept letting out low roars.
As his spirit and soul were completely refined by the Great Sun's True Flame, the Wheel King, who was far away in the underworld, felt the pain deep in his soul.
In order to allow his soul clone to descend, he paid a huge price. Who would have thought that this part of the soul, which carried the cultivation of the gods and ghosts, as well as part of the status of the King of Hell, was completely destroyed.
Such a price is an unacceptable loss for the Rotating King.
King Chujiang looked at King Lunzhuan with a look of surprise and suspicion. He had previously actively resisted accepting the soul because of the sudden rebellion of the Black and White Impermanence, which resulted in his soul being damaged and unable to descend to the Xuanhuang Realm.
He originally thought that he was the biggest loser among the Ten Kings of Hell in this invasion of the Xuanhuang Realm, but looking at King Lunzhuan's current embarrassed posture, King Chujiang felt inexplicably better.
A glimmer of light flashed in the eyes of King Qin Guang who was sitting in the first position. The message from his split soul had already made him fully understand the cause and effect of the matter.
Looking at the Wheel King, King Qin Guang's eyes had a hint of something indescribable, and he spoke to the Yamas in a deep voice:
"My soul has already informed me of the events of the Xuanhuang Realm. The destruction of King Lunzhuan's soul was the result of a secret plot by the Fengdu Emperor."
"Emperor Fengdu?"
"Who is this emperor?"
"Is there really an emperor in the Xuanhuang Realm?"
The spirits of other Yamas were unable to communicate across boundaries, and the spirit of the Wheel King was destroyed, so naturally he could not know what was happening in the Xuanhuang Realm.
King Qin Guang briefly explained the cause and effect to the Yamas, as well as the mysterious King Fengdu, and then said solemnly:
“I didn’t expect that the Great Emperor of Fengdu had already laid a net outside the underworld, and some of the nets were even specifically designed to target Yama, which led to the destruction of King Lunzhuan’s soul.
As soon as the Wheel King died, the situation in the Xuanhuang Realm entered a stalemate.
When I sent the message, the strength displayed by the six gods of Luofeng was almost as strong as that of the soul body of the self-severed god. "
The expressions of all the Yamas changed constantly; they had never imagined that the situation would be so difficult.
During the whole process, the Emperor of Fengdu did not even take action himself, but relied on the abilities of those Yin Shuai to suppress the Yamas.
If the King of Fengdu takes action, the plans of the Ten Kings of Hell will inevitably fail.
Seeing that the Yamas were in a state of confusion, King Qin Guang changed the subject and said:
“But you don’t have to worry too much. According to my repeated tests, although the Emperor of Fengdu can confer the Six Heavens of Luofeng to fight against the Yamas, he is limited by certain reasons and his realm is not high.
If not for this, he would have come out to help Luo Fengliutian suppress us long ago and would not have allowed the situation to remain deadlocked.
This means that as long as we find a way to break the impasse, we can launch a counterattack against the Emperor of Fengdu and completely stabilize the situation in the underworld."
Seeing that King Qin Guang seemed to be hinting at something, King Chu Jiang immediately asked:
"According to what King Qin Guang said, has there been a solution?"
King Qin Guang nodded approvingly and said, "To deal with the Fengdu Emperor, I now have two strategies." King Lunzhuan, who had suffered heavy losses, finally stabilized the backlash on his soul level and barely maintained his cultivation level. When he heard King Qin Guang's words, he asked:
"King Qin Guang, just speak frankly!"
“The best strategy is to start with the status of the Shinto Emperor of Fengdu.
Although Luo Feng Liutian under the command of the great emperor is powerful, he is far from being comparable to the King of Hell like us. What can truly suppress us is the divine rank of the Emperor Fengdu.
As long as we find a way to exempt the suppression of the Shinto rank, we can easily suppress Luo Feng Liu Tian.
In the Xuanhuang Realm, the Yamas also thought of this idea, so they asked the Wheel King to go to Beimang Mountain to retrieve the treasure of the underworld to fight against the suppression of the Shinto rank. Who would have thought that this move fell into the calculations of the Emperor of Fengdu, resulting in the destruction of the Wheel King's soul.
Although we failed to retrieve the treasure from the underworld, the fact that the Emperor of Fengdu went to such great lengths to destroy the soul of Lord Yan was enough to show that our actions posed a certain threat to him."
All the Yamas frowned, with thoughts floating in their eyes.
It is not easy to be exempted from the suppression of the Shinto rank. Apart from the treasures of the underworld, there are only decrees or talismans from the same Shinto emperor rank.
Among the two Shinto emperors in the underworld, the Lord of Mount Tai has already fallen, and the Emperor of Dongyue has been missing for thousands of years, so it is impossible to obtain the talismans of these two Shinto emperors.
As for the treasures of the underworld, the Ten Kings of Hell do control a few of them, but most of them are related to the operation of the underworld and are difficult to take away from the underworld. After much thought, it seems that none of them are feasible.
"What's the next best option?"
The Yamas remained silent, so King Chujiang asked again.
King Qin Guang did not respond immediately, but glanced at all the Yamas present, and then said solemnly:
"The worst option is to suppress it with force!"
"Gather the power of all the Yamas present, and allow a real Yama to cross the boundary and descend into Fengdu City. Use absolute power to crush the rules of the gods and suppress the Emperor of Fengdu, and completely stabilize the situation!"
When these words were spoken, all the Yamas were in an uproar.
"Yan Luo descended upon Fengdu City? The Xuanhuang Realm is suppressed by the Nine Cauldrons of the Human Realm. Aren't you afraid that the arrival of Yan Luo's true body will cause a backlash from the Human Realm's luck?"
"In ancient times, Xuanhuang Realm might not be able to bear a great celestial being, not to mention the current situation where the heaven and earth are completely connected and many rules are incomplete."
"The arrival of Yama's true body can indeed suppress everything, but he will surely die if he suffers the backlash from the entire Xuanhuang Realm!"
King Qin Guang had already anticipated the reactions of the Yamas, and said with a smile:
“Please rest assured, I have already considered these things. It is impossible for Yama’s true body to maintain the realm of a great celestial being.
I have the means to make sure that when Yama's true body descends, his realm will remain at the level of Lianxu Zhenjun, so that it will not affect the destiny of humanity suppressed by the Nine Cauldrons. In addition, Fengdu City is originally connected to the underworld, so the backlash from the Xuanhuang Realm will not be too severe.
If you all come here in your true form with the cultivation level of Lianxu Zhenjun, I believe it will be enough to sweep away everything."
After hearing this, all the Yamas breathed a sigh of relief. If they could really suppress it to the realm of refining emptiness, it might be a feasible strategy.
"Then according to King Qin Guang's opinion, which strategy should we choose?" King Pingdeng asked cautiously.
"Which strategy?" King Qin Guang suddenly sneered.
"The King of Fengdu has endless tricks. We Yama Luos had a big advantage at first, but we suffered setbacks because we failed to make decisions when we should.
I have decided to use both strategies, sending a Lord of Hell to descend upon the Xuanhuang Realm with the Underworld's most precious treasure, the Mirror of Karma, in my hands, to suppress everything!"
All the Yamas took a deep breath.
King Qin Guang looked around and said indifferently:
"I know this matter will involve certain risks, so I will not force a certain Yama Luo to go, I will only give my promise.
Whoever agrees to this will be helped by King Chu Jiang and I in the future. We can even let him take charge of the Karma Mirror that we will take to the Xuanhuang Realm after the success."
The expressions of all the Yamas were moved.
Whether it is breaking through the realm or the treasure of the underworld, the Karma Mirror, they are all conditions that are enough to make Yama Luo excited.
However, the situation in the Xuanhuang Realm was not clear yet, and the Yamas were unable to make up their minds for the moment.
“I’ll go!”
A voice suddenly sounded in the ruins of the First Hall, and everyone looked to see who was speaking and it was none other than the soul-damaged Wheel King.
At this moment, the Tenth Yama's eyes were filled with frightening greed and anger, and he roared loudly:
"I will make Emperor Fengdu pay the price!"
Standing in the first position, a strange look flashed across King Qin Guang’s eyes.
In Fengdu City, powerful auras penetrated the void above the sky, and the collision between the supernatural powers of ghosts and the authority of gods continued.
The morale of the four Yin generals who were conferred as the Six Heavenly Ghosts of Luofeng is high, and they are becoming more and more adept at using the Shinto instruments that represent their authority. In contrast, the four Yamas, who had the upper hand at the beginning, are now struggling to cope with the decline.
Anyone can see that the defeat of the four Yamas is only a matter of time.
However, this situation did not seem to shake the Yamas. They switched from attacking to defending in order to delay time, looking up into the sky from time to time as if they were expecting something.
Suddenly, accompanied by a loud noise that seemed like the creation of the world, a howling gale arose above the dark sky of Fengdu City, and huge dark clouds covered an area of thousands of miles and enveloped the entire Taizhou.
A large area of space collapsed at this moment, and a passage appeared that seemed to extend from the infinite void, reflecting the illusory shadow of the six realms of reincarnation.
The Xuanhuang Realm was shaking, and the old monsters sleeping in the blessed lands all felt it and looked towards the land of Taizhou.
They could all feel that in that land shrouded by the underworld, it seemed as if a supreme god had descended to the world.
All the light was swallowed up by the six phantoms of reincarnation. In the infinite darkness, a majestic figure wearing a square crown and robes crossed over. Its might overwhelmed the underworld, and the entire Fengdu city was crumbling in the majesty of the gods.
"Fengdu, today is the day of your demise!"
In the imperial chariot, Shen Yuan looked at the King of Hell who had come from another world, and his heart was shocked beyond words.
The realm and status of the King of Hell before him are both beyond this world. He is simply not an existence that can be contended with by ordinary forces. Even using the power of summoning rain to cause the water of the Milky Way to flow back may not be able to suppress him.
At this moment, Shen Yuan's mind suddenly moved, and he looked towards the direction of Beimang Mountain with stars in his eyes.
Under the illumination of the Star Number Divine Power, the last rock in the ancient forbidden land was completely destroyed by huge engineering machinery. The blessed land space lost its spatial anchoring and fell completely into the endless void.
Whether it is the ancient forbidden land or the lord of Beimang Mountain, these legends that have been passed down for thousands of years have finally come to an end.
A clear and crisp voice that had not been heard for a long time slowly rang in Shen Yuan's ears.
System: The host has gone through numerous hardships and dangers, and single-handedly slaughtered all the ghosts and immortals in Beimang Mountain, cleared the world and pacified the ancient forbidden land that had been in turmoil for tens of thousands of years.
Congratulations to the host for completing the hidden achievement: Suppressing the Forbidden Zone. Reward: Tiangang Great Divine Power: Seven Arrows!
