"The forces of the four ghost emperors are almost the same, all around 100,000. But most of the ghost soldiers are constantly on the march under the leadership of ghost generals, leaving less than one-tenth of the troops in the imperial palace." Fengdu Emperor said, "As long as we are fast enough and catch them by surprise, the chances of success are not small."
Mingren was not so optimistic. "Ten thousand ghost soldiers, that's not a small number."
Emperor Fengdu nodded, "So, the first step is to open the gate and recruit soldiers."
Wen Qi finally sorted out his chaotic thoughts and asked, "Will the Four Ghost Emperors watch you recruit soldiers?"
Emperor Fengdu: "There are only 10,000 ghost soldiers around. Even if they care, they won't easily intervene."
Afterwards, the gates of Fengdu were opened wide, and when the news of recruiting soldiers came out, the ghost kings and ghost generals from all over the place were tempted, including some ghosts who had rebelled under the command of the Four Ghost Emperors.
However, the four ghost emperors have remained silent on this matter. They all just waited and watched, allowing the situation to develop. Even when they were betrayed, they remained silent.
Wen Qi breathed a sigh of relief, and then couldn't help but think of a conspiracy theory, "Many of these ghosts must be traitors."
The Emperor of Fengdu was very calm. "It doesn't matter. As long as he enters Fengdu and swears allegiance to Fengdu Mountain, no matter which side of the ghost he was before, he will become the most loyal ghost soldier of Fengdu."
Wen Qi silently gave a thumbs up. You are still the best! Otherwise, how could he become the emperor? This move of cutting off the firewood from under the cauldron made the Four Ghost Emperors empty-handed. They lost both their wives and their troops. It was amazing!
Within three days, nearly 20,000 ghost soldiers rushed to Fengdu.
The Emperor of Fengdu also specially set up an arena and required fighting competitions to be graded. The strength was ranked from high to low, with four levels: Ghost King, Ghost General, Hundred Ghost Leaders and ordinary ghost soldiers.
After two days and two nights of non-stop fighting, three ghost kings, nine ghost generals, and one hundred and eighty ghost captains were decided, and the entire army of ghosts began to take shape.
As a witness of the whole process, Wen Qi was deeply moved. The appeal of Emperor Fengdu was so strong.
Afterwards, the entire army entered Mount Fengdu and swore an oath of allegiance. When they came out again, they were all labeled Fengdu from head to toe.
"Now there is only one last question left." Fengdu Emperor pondered, "How to quietly descend upon the palace of the Western Ghost Emperor."
Speaking of space transfer, Wen Qi subconsciously looked at the ring on her hand, but this ring came from the future, and she didn't know if the door could still be opened. She hesitated and said, "I can try."
Emperor Fengdu also looked at the ring on her hand, paused for two seconds before nodding and saying, "Okay."
Mingren and Liu Ran were confused and looked at Wen Qi in confusion.
Wen Qi took a deep breath, raised the hand with the ring on it, and at the same time poured his soul power into it frantically. The ring suddenly emitted a dazzling light.
"Oh my!" Mingren exclaimed in shock: "What kind of magic weapon is this?"
The next second, a big crack appeared in the air, and an ancient door slowly appeared, and Mingren's eyes slowly widened.
Liu Ran was also amazed, but she had never come into contact with such things before. But wasn't Mingren a serious heavenly master who had been practicing since childhood? How could he act like a bumpkin who had never seen the world? Mingren was also wronged. He was a heavenly master, but he had never seen such a big scene before! He had only seen ghosts and magic tools a few more times than ordinary people since he was a child. How could he have the opportunity to come to the underworld and see the portal? After a few breaths, the portal was completely formed. Wen Qi was also surprised, "It actually worked!"
Emperor Fengdu pondered and said, "The boundary gate is also a kind of time and space treasure. It is reasonable that it is not restricted by time and space."
Wen Qi had a wild thought, "Then can I go directly back to the future through the gate?"
Emperor Fengdu laughed, "The boundary gate doesn't have that much power."
Wen Qi sighed in disappointment, and then said, "I'm still missing a coordinate. I don't know where the palace of the Western Ghost Emperor is. Have you been there?"
Emperor Fengdu frowned and said, "I went there once before when the Ghost Emperor ascended the throne, but I didn't look carefully at that time. Let me think about it."
Wen Qi said directly: "Or you can take me there, and we can determine the location first. It will be much faster than you think."
The Emperor of Fengdu glanced at her and sighed, "Then let's go."
Just in case, the two of them entered the gate hand in hand, and then the gate closed and disappeared.
Mingren sighed, "How could the emperor not remember? He obviously just wanted to delay time and let Wen Qi stay a little longer."
Liu Ran was also surprised, "Really?" Such a serious question is actually a trick? Mingren nodded with great certainty, "Men understand men best!"
After stepping out of the gate, Wen Qi and Emperor Fengdu appeared directly at a scene of massacre - a team of ghost soldiers were slaughtering the village.
The villagers were all ordinary ghosts. They had no ability to resist the fully armed ghost soldiers and could only allow themselves to be slaughtered and devoured by them.
Wen Qi's eyes turned cold, she raised her hand and swung out a soul power, sweeping all the ghost soldiers away. Then she planned to summon the Bagua Mace to teach these ghost soldiers a lesson.
But after the summoning ended, the Bagua Mace did not appear.
Wen Qi realized that the Bagua Mace should not have been refined yet. She frowned, changed her gestures, and chanted the thunder spell. Suddenly, soul-destroying thunders fell and gathered together to form a thunderstorm.
The ghost soldiers suddenly exploded into rich soul power under the thunderstorm and scattered in all directions.
Wen Qi waved his hand to disperse the soul power, then snorted unhappily and looked at the ghost people.
The ghost people were obviously frightened by her methods, and just a glance from her made them scream and flee in panic.
Wen Qi became even more unhappy when he saw this. Is she scarier than the ghost soldiers?
"What's wrong?" Fengdu Emperor asked curiously, "Wasn't it fine just now?"
Wen Qi pouted, "My magic weapon is gone."
Fengdu Emperor understood, thought for a moment and said, "What kind of magic weapon are you used to? I can help you refine a new one."
Hmm? Wen Qi was very excited, but she was still a little hesitant, "Will it take a long time?"
The Emperor of Fengdu did not comment, but asked: "We are going back through time anyway, so it doesn't matter if we go back earlier or later, right?"
Wen Qi looked at him, and after a few seconds he suddenly smiled, "I want a stick that's heavier, I'm very strong." He just wanted her to stay for a few more days to accompany him, what could he not say? Why did he have to use such a roundabout way? What would he do if she didn't see it? Thinking of this, Wen Qi sighed in his heart, it was a mistake, he should have pretended not to understand! "This is near the palace of the Western Ghost Emperor." The Emperor of Fengdu took her hand again, "I'll take you closer." The two took a step forward and arrived at the edge of the forest on the east side of the palace, looking at the huge palace from afar.
Wen Qi was a little shocked, "Is this the entire imperial palace?" It looked more like a city from the outside.
The Emperor of Fengdu nodded and said, "All ten thousand ghost soldiers live in the imperial palace. There are also a large number of slaves kept in the palace. Some are used for entertainment, and some are used for food."
Wen Qi frowned. She was born in modern society and had never seen a real slave society even in the escape game. She really couldn't imagine how unbearable the scene would be.
The only thing that is certain is that after listening to it, she suddenly supported Emperor Fengdu in unifying the underworld and establishing the Hades. She still prefers a place with order.
"Thank you for your hard work." Wen Qi sighed, "This time when you go back, go to the Yin Yang Spring to collect more spiritual herbs. Carry them with you. If you encounter danger, take two pills."
The Emperor of Fengdu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Only Wen Qi could describe the elixir of the dead soul as if it were a weed. It sounded worthless. He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go back and get a few more."
Wen Qi felt relieved and looked towards the Imperial Palace again, "How do we get in? Is there a barrier outside?"
The Emperor of Fengdu nodded, "We must first break the barrier and let the ghost soldiers descend directly into the imperial palace. The Western Ghost Emperor is cautious and suspicious by nature. He will not show up unless he is pushed to a certain extent."
Wen Qi: "According to what you said before, the cooldown period of the Eye of Time and Space is three months. We have been here for less than ten days, and the Eye of Time and Space cannot be used. When we are at the gates of the city, he will have no choice but to fight back hastily."
Emperor Fengdu: "When he is forced to fight me, we can seize the Eye of Time and Space."
"That's pretty much the plan." Wen Qi pondered, "The only problem now is the barrier. We have to find a reasonable excuse to appear here and break the barrier."
"Why are you looking for excuses?" Fengdu Emperor said calmly, "Don't bother yourself with that. Just come over when you want to fight. You don't need to explain. Can't you just fight when you want to?"
Wen Qi was speechless after hearing these bandit-like words. Is it really okay to be so unreasonable and arrogant? The Emperor of Fengdu glanced at her and pursed his lips and said, "If you must give a reason, can you say that you don't like him? Or, I'm bored and want to borrow the Eye of Time and Space to play with it?"
Wen Qi couldn't help but applaud, "Very good! It has to be you!"
Emperor Fengdu raised his eyebrows, "Thank you for the compliment."
