"Um?"
Xu Xiwang frowned, startling the Demon King. He immediately explained, "Hey, hey, don't misunderstand. The Netherworld Flower is the symbol of the Ghost Clan. Only the Ghost Emperors know its whereabouts. However, I heard that two humans broke in and stole the Netherworld Flower! This caused quite a stir, so..."
Do you know their exact whereabouts?
Xu Xiwang couldn't help but ask.
"I have no idea."
"Fine, then you can just wait to die."
After Xu Xiwang finished speaking, he turned around and killed him.
"Damn it, how could you do this? I've told you everything I know!"
"The Demon King said in a panic."
"You didn't tell me what I wanted to know."
Xu Xiwang said indifferently, "Since you won't cooperate, I'll have no choice but to kill you."
"You! You! I'll talk, I'll talk, okay?!"
The Demon King was on the verge of tears; this kid was doing it on purpose!
Xu Xiwang stopped and looked at the Demon King with amusement. "Tell me quickly, how do you find it?"
"This, this..."
Don't keep me in suspense!
"It's easy to find. Just head to the deepest part, to the territories of those Ghost Emperors, and you'll find it there! Those Ghost Emperors have already sealed off their respective territories; those two humans have no chance of escape."
The Demon King looked at Xu Xiwang and said with a serious expression.
"oh."
"Everything I said is true! Would I lie to you?"
The Demon King quickly added, "Think about it, the Netherworld Flower is a sacred object of the Ghost Clan. Who wouldn't want to obtain it? However, no matter how strong any Ghost Clan member is, they will surely die if they touch that flower! Therefore, the Ghost Emperors could only seal it away and wait for those two humans to plant the Netherworld Flower back themselves."
Seeing that Xu Xiwang still had no intention of letting him go, the Ghost King continued.
“If you go all the way to the deepest part from here, you will first pass through a ghost pool, and then you will reach the territory of Tuoba Ghost Emperor.”
"Trust me, please. I'm serious. I don't dare go any deeper. When the Ghost Emperors go berserk, no one can stop them."
The Demon King, with an expression of trepidation, said...
"Do I believe you?"
Xu Xiwang smiled and said.
"Yes, yes, I promise it's all true!"
The Demon King nodded repeatedly, "However, this road is quite long; it will take three days to get there."
Xu Xiwang narrowed his eyes and looked at the Demon King with suspicion.
"Oh my god! How could you do this! Don't you trust me?"
The Demon King looked aggrieved. "Fine, I won't say anything then. You don't believe me anyway, so it's pointless. I'll just wait until I die, find a new body to reincarnate in, and be a human in my next life!"
The Demon King plopped down on the ground, looking completely unfazed, "Believe it or not!"
After saying that, the Demon King shut his mouth and stopped talking.
"You... never mind, I'll let you off the hook, you brat!"
Seeing the Demon King's state, Xu Xi thought it best not to press him any further, otherwise he might really run away in desperation.
After all, the Demon King's cultivation level was quite high, and if he really disregarded everything and desperately tried to escape, he really wouldn't be able to catch up.
"Alright, go back and do your chores. I'll accept this precious thing as a gift to me. Don't bother seeing me off, go home."
The Demon King cursed inwardly, "Who the hell wanted to give it to you, you brat? You actually used his treasure as a gift!"
This is absolutely outrageous!
But unfortunately, he couldn't beat him in a fight, nor could he win an argument with him.
That brat, he'll remember this, he'll get his revenge!
Just wait and see, he'll definitely skin this brat alive and tear him apart!
The Demon King was so angry he wanted to grind his teeth.
Xu Xi saw that he didn't say a word and was too lazy to pay attention to him.
All he wants now is to find his third uncle as soon as possible.
They continued their journey deeper into the Nine Netherworlds.
Xu Xiwang almost got lost along the way, which made him exclaim that this place was really weird and evil, full of ghosts and monsters.
This is only the outer perimeter of the Nine Nether Hells. If one were to truly venture deeper, who knows how many demons and monsters one would encounter?
Fortunately, he is very strong now, so he doesn't have to worry about getting injured.
Along the way, Xu Xiwang looked around and suddenly felt a little lonely.
"Damn it, how long will it take to get to that ghost pool?!"
As he walked, Xu Xiwang kept complaining.
He almost got lost in the vast and boundless Netherworld.
This made him feel extremely frustrated.
However, Xu Xiwang was someone who had weathered many storms, and he quickly regained his composure and continued on his journey.
He traveled for four days.
Until they reached a black ocean.
The seawater rippled and surged like waves, crashing against the rocks on the shore with a tremendous roar.
"roar!"
A roar resounded in my ears, as if some kind of monster was howling, shaking the earth.
"Holy crap, where am I?"
Looking around, Xu Xiwang couldn't help but swear.
The seawater appears to be surging and turbulent, but in reality, it harbors hidden dangers.
If you accidentally step on it, your soul will be devoured.
Moreover, the further in you go, the lower the water temperature becomes, and it even emits a faint chill.
How exactly is this ghost realm set up?
Xu Xiwang couldn't help but mutter to himself.
Xu Xiwang looked closely and saw countless red lanterns floating on the sea.
Inside each lantern burned a red flame, which moved slowly across the sea, emitting an alluring glow.
"What on earth is that thing? Could it be the legendary will-o'-the-wisp?"
Wait, isn't the will-o'-the-wisp the kind of thing that energetic young men ride?
In the blink of an eye, the flames burning in the red lanterns turned into green flames, like fire dragons, swimming in the air, sometimes flying into the sky, sometimes diving into the sea, making it impossible to understand what they were trying to do.
Xu Xiwang couldn't help but feel a headache coming on; he felt as if he had fallen into some kind of trap.
Could it be that old bastard tricked me?
He wanted to skim across this ghostly pool like a dragonfly skimming the water.
But as soon as he took a step, he felt his body was out of control.
This sea is strange!
