"Oh, you mean those?" Su Nian chuckled, slightly raising her chin. "Those vengeful ghosts couldn't even enter my consciousness. After all... compared to a true immortal like me, those so-called vengeful ghosts were far too weak..."
"What...did you say?" Yama stared at him blankly.
"A true immortal?"
"Yes, even now, you still haven't figured it out?" Su Nian finally stopped hiding and released all her immortal power, which instantly swept through the entire barrier like a heat wave!
When Yama sensed this overwhelming celestial energy, he was completely stunned.
Only then did he realize what kind of being he was fighting against.
"Do you think that with the Immortal Realm sealed off, there will be no more true immortals in the world?" Su Nian said with a smug smile. "But unfortunately, you're wrong. And this land beneath your feet is no longer divided into the Nine Provinces and the Demon Realm. Instead, I have unified it into the Lesser God Realm!"
The words "Little Divine Realm" resonated like a booming bell, echoing endlessly in Yama's mind.
He felt completely weak and sat down on the ground in a daze.
"Why... why can you break through to the immortal realm, which I have pursued for ten thousand years without success?"
"Want to know?" Su Nian asked.
Yama nodded heavily.
"I want to! Becoming an immortal is my lifelong dream! If you can help me become an immortal, I, Yama, am willing to swear on my life that I will be loyal to you from now on! I will never betray you in this lifetime!"
As he spoke, Yama took out his judge's pen, knelt down, and presented it to Su Nian.
"This brush is the foundation of my reign in the underworld! I am willing to hand this brush over to the immortals to show my loyalty!"
Su Nian did not take the pen, but said indifferently, "Get up, I don't need your pen."
King Yama breathed a sigh of relief, but still said aloud, "If Your Excellency does not take away this pen from me, I will not be at peace with myself!"
Su Nian looked at him with great interest, "You really know how to handle people."
"Your Excellency is too kind. What I have said comes from the bottom of my heart! From the first moment I saw Your Excellency, I was stunned by Your Excellency's unparalleled beauty! It was as if I saw a seven-colored radiance behind Your Excellency! I have never seen a true immortal in this world before, so I was momentarily confused and offended Your Excellency. Please punish me!" Yama bowed and said with his hands clasped.
Su Nian waved her hand, "Let's skip those cliché compliments. If I had known you were such an sycophant, I would have revealed my cultivation level from the start to avoid all this trouble."
Yama chuckled.
"But don't think you can get away with just a few nice words!" Su Nian suddenly said sharply, "King Yama! You imprisoned the soul of an ancient emperor! You used your position to commit murder for money! Do you know your crimes?"
King Yama was so frightened that he knelt down with a thud, his eyes brimming with tears, and said, "My lord, I have my reasons!"
"What's the trouble you're facing? Tell me about it."
"Although it was wrong of me to imprison that ancient emperor's soul, that ancient emperor was also a man of fierce temperament. He started causing chaos everywhere after entering our underworld, as if he were possessed. I only imprisoned him in order to maintain the stability of the underworld!"
Su Nian frowned. "Wasn't it because you arrested his wife in the first place that he went crazy?"
King Yama smiled bitterly, "Although I am greedy, that ancient emperor was also a human emperor. Even if I were stupid, I would never touch the people around the human emperor. Wouldn't that just cause trouble for my underworld?"
Su Nian fell into deep thought.
"You didn't arrest his wife?"
"No! Those are all rumors! The ancient emperor was controlled by a mysterious force, and it has nothing to do with me!"
“A mysterious power…” Su Nian narrowed her eyes.
His first thought was of Ye Hua's trickery.
Tricks can control the mind, plunging people into boundless fear of death.
However, the era of the ancient emperor is far removed from their own, so it couldn't possibly be him, right?
Su Nian pinched her chin, her brows furrowed tightly.
...
In the cracks of the world.
The Ghost Immortal sat cross-legged in the air with his eyes closed, while Su Liuli held a long sword in front of him, ready to enter battle at any moment.
Her long, silvery-white hair fell naturally down her back, and her blood-red eyes were fixed on the Ghost Immortal's every move, as if afraid that he would suddenly make a move.
Since Su Nian left with Qian Shudie that day, Gui Xian has shown no intention of killing Su Liuli.
He just sat there quietly, cross-legged, and Su Liuli had no idea what he was doing.
Suddenly, the ghostly immortal opened its eyes.
Su Liuli immediately became fully alert and prepared for battle.
The ghostly immortal merely opened his eyes and spoke softly, his voice hollow and serene.
"I found it."
Those four short words set off alarm bells in Su Liuli's mind!
Without a word, she instantly summoned her Glazed Dharma Image! She thrust her sword towards the face of the Demon Immortal!
However, the Ghost Immortal simply extended two fingers and effortlessly pinched the sword in Su Liuli's hand.
"Don't fight me, Master. Even if you have become an immortal, killing you is still just a matter of thinking to me," the Ghost Immortal said casually.
Su Liuli tried to pull the sword away from the ghost immortal's hand, but she found that no matter what she did, she still couldn't break free from the ghost immortal's control.
Then the ghostly immortal released his fingers, and Su Liuli pulled the sword back.
"He has now established a place called the Minor God Realm, and is cultivating and improving with his companions. Not only that, he has also subdued the Underworld... Hehehe... His progress is really rapid. Is it because he felt the pressure? It hasn't been long since he evolved to this level. Sure enough... he must be the reincarnation of that Reincarnation Immortal Emperor?"
